addressed concerns from the June 26 meeting. Comments from the June 26th
Council meeting were reviewed. The two-by-two meetings were
discussed. Some Council members felt that this was a good way to be kept
updated by the City Manager without having a formal meeting and all of the
Item #4B
Date: 9/11/2023
details involved in that. Some Council members shared that they felt this did
not allow them to be as transparent and also that they felt they were not able to
hear all feedback. It was suggested that it would be wise to wait until a new
City Manager is hired before making a decision on practices that would involve
his/her direction.
Comments from the July 24th Council meeting were also reviewed by Council. It was
noted that work is being done to move ahead with formulation of a new Comprehensive

discuss this further. Staff was asked about the status of an update on the potential
adoption of the Virginia Building Maintenance Code and updates on the land use
sections of the City's Code. Mr. Light noted that the Work Session for the second

maintenance code and other land use items discussed by Council at their retreat. It was
also noted that a Joint meeting of Council and the Planning Commission is scheduled for
September 29, 2023, and a Joint meeting of Council and the EDA is scheduled for

A. Citizen Comments
Comments from the public, limited to five minutes, on matters not already
having a public hearing at the same meeting.
Betsy Freund, 381 Walnut Road, was the only citizen to address Council this evening.
She expressed concern about the proposed development of the Hope Tree campus. She
noted that Hope Tree Family Services is a nonprofit 501(c)(3) corporation and that they
have financial pressures and need revenue to continue the important mission of helping
both displaced children and some developmentally disabled adults. She also empathized
with the residents of North Broad Street in their concerns of increased traffic as well as
their desire to preserve the green spaces and to maintain the historic character of the
street by limiting nearby development. She stated that finding a way to balance the
financial needs of Hope Tree with the needs of surrounding neighbors would be best.
Ms. Freund proposed that Hope Tree adapt any buildings no longer in use for housing.
She shared an example of how Staunton has successfully done this with the former
Western State Mental Hospital Complex. These historic buildings have been turned into
the Villages at Staunton condominiums and are maintaining all of the existing greenspace.
She also noted that the Hope Tree property is much smaller than the one in Staunton and
they may propose additional housing beyond the reuse of some of the existing buildings.
If this is the case, she recommended that new construction be built on the flatter ground
above in an effort to maintain the green swath of the horse pasture below. She expressed
concern for any construction done on the steep hill due to drainage and runoff issues. Ms.
Item #4B
Date: 9/11/2023
Freund stated that part of what makes any community special is keeping their older,
historically significant buildings and adapting them for new uses as needed. She also
expressed the importance of preserving green spaces. She proposed discreet development
up on the hill that would be minimally seen from below, both to benefit the mission of
Hope Tree and to maintain the integrity and historic charm of the surrounding
neighborhood. She indicated that less housing could ideally work to Hope Tree's benefit as
less housing could be priced higher due to offering more privacy and open green space.
Mayor Turk noted that a number of citizens were here this evening in support of this topic
this evening. She asked Mr. Van Allman if anything had been submitted at this point. He
indicated that Community Development had received a draft proposal of how they plan
to develop a PUD but that this is in draft form, and they are working out the form for
submission.
Mayor Turk noted that Council understands the concerns that are being expressed and
that she had spoken to Mr. Morris at Hope Tree to let him know that there are a number
of concerned citizens. She has also spoken to Mr. Van Allman a number of times, and
expressed that Council has the highest confidence in Salem's Community Development
Department to review the technical aspects of any such request. He has indicated that
they will be looking at possible issues such as stormwater, traffic impact, and utilities.
They will also be working with the Police Department and the Fire Department for any
concerns, She had confidence in our staff to evaluate any impacts. Mayor Turk
emphasized that there are very few actual facts that we know at this point.
Mr. Foley noted for the public that there will be opportunities for the public to speak and
express their feelings at a public hearing to the Planning Commission and a public hearing
in front of Council when this item comes to Council officially.
Mayor Turk shared again the comment made by Mrs. Reinhard at the previous Council
meeting that this is privately owned property. The plan will have to come before the
Planning Commission and Council before any actual work can be done.
B.Minutes
Consider acceptance of the August 10, 2023, Special Work Session, and the
August 14, 2023, Work Session and Regular Meeting minutes.
The minutes were approved as written.

Mayor Turk noted that this is in line with the State of Virginia's Code.
H Hunter Holliday motioned to adopt ordinance on second reading to adopt Section 14-4,
Hunting Deer During Urban Archery Season, of Article I, In General, of Chapter 14,

6. New Business
A. Special Exception Permit
Hold public hearing to consider the request of Jesse Spence, property owner, for the
issuance of a Special Exception Permit to allow a two-family dwelling on the
property located at 128 Bellevue Avenue (Tax Map # 78-1-1). (Advertised in the
August 17 and 24 issues of the Salem Times-Register.) (Recommend approval; see
page 3 of Planning Commission minutes.) STAFF REPORT
Mr. Van Allman explained that this property is on the corner of Bellevue and Woodlawn.
Essentially, the owner would like to add separate electrical and water and sewer service
and rent the two units out as multi-family dwellings. In order to do this in residential
single-family zoning they would need a special exception permit. Community
Development would require them to go through the permit process and noted a minimal
one-hour firewall that goes up to the shingles of the roof would be required as well as
some handicap requirements related to ingress and egress. The completed units would be
in compliance with the building and zoning code requirements.
Mayor Turk opened the public hearing.
Noone came forward to speak.
Mayor Turk closed the public hearing.
Mr. Foley pointed out for the benefit of the public that even thought this is zoned
residential single- family, the unit across the street already is a duplex and that this would
be consistent with the neighbors.
Mr. Holliday asked to clarify if this is a single unit or two.
Mr. Van Allman clarified that this is currently one unit because it has one electrical and
one water/sewer service with a door that connects. In order to make this two separate
units with services, the Building Code states that there has to be a firewall between the
Item #4B
Date: 9/11/2023
two units.
William Jones motioned to approve the request of Jesse Spence, property owner, for the
issuance of a Special Exception Permit to allow a two-family dwelling on the property
located at 128 Bellevue Avenue (Tax Map # 78-1-1). H Hunter Holliday seconded the
motion.
Ayes: Foley, Holliday, Jones, Turk, Wallace
B. Amendment to the Zoning Ordinance
Hold public hearing and consider ordinance on first reading for the request of
Helm Building Enterprises Ltd., property owner, for rezoning the property
located at 105 St. John Road (Tax Map # 155-3-2) from HBD Highway
Business District to HM Heavy Manufacturing. (Advertised in the August
17 and 24 issues of the Salem Times-Register.) (Recommend approval, see
pages 3-5 of Planning Commission minutes.) STAFF REPORT
Mr. Van Allman shared the information that Council had approved that the parcel next
door be rezoned for the same use, so this would be very consistent with what was done
in the past.
Mayor Turk opened the public hearing.
Ted Dyer, Vice- President of Helm Building Enterprises, 1491 Southside Drive, noted
that they had just subdivided this from a lot that went to the street. Both properties
beside it are zoned as Heavy Manufacturing. They have reached out to the owners
across the street as well as to the development of what is going to take place across the
street on St. John Road and plan to add six more ten-thousand-square foot warehouses
for Salem. He offered to answer any questions.
Mayor Turk closed the public hearing.
Randy Foley motioned to adopt ordinance on first reading for the request of Helm
Building Enterprises Ltd., property owner, for rezoning the property located at 105 St. John
Road (Tax Map # 155-3-2) from HBD Highway Business District to HM Heavy
Manufacturing. William Jones seconded the motion.

Doyle Properties, LLC, property owner, for rezoning the property located at

Family to HBD Highway Business District. (Advertised in the August 17 and
24 issues of the Salem Times-Register.) (Recommend approval, see pages 5-6
Item #4B
Date: 9/11/2023
of Planning Commission minutes.) STAFF REPORT
Mr. Van Allman noted that Community Development had received about five comments
this afternoon on this item and that in general the comments were not in support of this
rezoning request. The main issue cited was traffic. Another issue was that this was in the
character of the community. A number of people have expressed the concern that this
remain residential.
Mayor Turk noted for the record that Council does have a copy of the comments from the
various citizens, and they had also received this via email.
Mayor Turk opened the public hearing.
Chris Burns of Balzer and Associates, 1208 Corporate Circle, Roanoke, appeared before
Council on behalf of the property owner who was also in attendance at the meeting. He
pointed out that the proposed request is to rezone this property from Residential Single-
Family to Highway Business District. This is consistent with the Future Land Use Map.
They were pleased that the Planning Commission recommended approval of that. He
stated that they would be happy to answer any questions.
Mr. Wallace stated that in reviewing the packet it appeared that a corrugated building was
being proposed and asked to verify if this was correct.
Mr. Burns responded that the proposed building was a premanufactured metal building
and that there was a rendering from the manufacturer's website in the packet. The owner
does plan to dress up what is reflected in the picture, and he would be happy to
elaborate if they would like for him to do so.
Mr. Wallace asked if the owner would consider a proffer that the building not be a
corrugated metal design in order to appease concerns of some of the adjoining
neighbors that are trying to maintain residential characteristics.
Cecil Doyle, 204 S. Jefferson Street, Roanoke, 24011, appeared before Council and
stated that he was not aware that there was an issue with using a pre-engineered building
as this was the first, he had heard of that. He noted that what he was proposing was a
high-end pre-engineered building. He elaborated that there was a wide spectrum of this
type of building available and that what he was proposing was at the high end of the
spectrum as it would have a wainscotting, a well-defined entrance, standing seam roofing,
shutters on the windows, and cupolas on the roof.
Mr. Holliday asked for the exact nature of what the building would be used for as he felt
that some of the citizens did not know this information.
Mr. Doyle responded that he collected classic cars. He noted that he typically would
have fifteen to twenty cars. He had been storing them in Floyd but had decided that this
is not convenient to Roanoke and that the gravel road it is located on is not conducive to
storing classic cars. He has sold these cars and planned to provide a facility in Salem or
Roanoke where he could store his cars initially but to build it such that it could be built
Item #4B
Date: 9/11/2023
out to an office space or something compatible with HBD zoning. He noted that there
were a lot of uses compatible with HBD that would not be compatible with that particular
lot and that the lot was not large enough for a lot of the uses that would be undesirable.
He continued that for now it would be a nice-looking shell building that he predicted
would turn into an office building moving forward.
Mr. Holliday asked who the cars would belong to.
Mr. Doyle responded that there would only be cars belonging to him and that he
would not be storing classic cars belonging to others.
Mayor Turk commented that she understood that there would be some landscaping and
that the area would be nicely enhanced.
Mr. Doyle confirmed that it would be buffered on the residential side with a fence and
evergreens as required by Code. He noted that everything is being done according to the
Code. He continued that there would be a buffer on Point Pleasant as well as East Main.
He said that there is already a buffer on the East side. He noted that he has already
done a lot of cleanup on this lot.
Council thanked Mr. Doyle.
Mr. Wallace asked if Mr. Doyle would be willing to accept a proffer that this not be a
corrugated style building.
Mr. Guynn advised that Council cannot request a proffer.
Mr. Wallace noted to his colleagues that if the City is going to enhance their Main Street
corridors, that corrugated steel would not do so.
Ted Dyer, Helm Building, 1491 Southside, noted that as a supplier of approximately 2
million square feet of metal buildings last year across the states of Virginia, West
Virginia, Pennsylvania, North Carolina, and Georgia, he asked that City Council when
reviewing this keep in mind that they recently rezoned a Dorsey property that allowed it
to have a metal building near to a lot of nicer homes that would be much closer that was
City purchased property. There is an allowance for that to be a metal building and that
affects Ashley Drive, Mill Lane, and all residents in that area. He felt that this needed to
be considered when telling a citizen what they could do with their land. He also asked
that they consider the recently allowed expansion with metal of GE as part of the
gateway down 419 for the City, He felt that an owner should have the right to decide what
materials he wished to use on his property. Mr. Dyer also noted that we are starting to see
homeowners going for the industrial look in architecture and are seeing some of this in
neighborhoods. He asked Council to keep this in mind going forward and as metal
buildings are considered in the future.
Mayor Turk closed the public hearing.
Item #4B
Date: 9/11/2023
Mr. Foley expressed that he was not opposed to the rezoning but that his concern was with
the building. He stated that he was not opposed to metal buildings but that he did not think
going forward that they would allow metal buildings the length of Main Street. He did not
feel that it reflected well on Council if that section of Main Street was not treated as the
rest of Main Street. He felt that Council may be setting themselves up for trouble in the
future if they were not consistent in this by denying one request and allowing another,
particularly because of the area that it was in.
William Jones motioned to adopt ordinance on first reading for the request of Doyle
Properties, LLC, property owner, for rezoning the property located at 2005 East Main
Street (Tax Map # 78-2-2.11) from RSF Residential Single-Family to HBD Highway
Business District. H Hunter Holliday seconded the motion.
Ayes: Holliday, Jones, Turk

D. Amendment to the Zoning Ordinance
Hold public hearing and consider ordinance on first reading for the request of
Neal Wall, property owner, for rezoning the properties located at 1139 Highland
Road (Tax Map #230-2-7) and portions of 1127 (Tax Map #230-2-5) and 1133
Highland Road (Tax Map # 230-2-6) from RSF Residential Single Family to
HBD Highway Business District. (Advertised in the August 17 and 24 issues
of the Salem Times-Register.) (Recommend approval, see pages 6-8 of
Planning Commission minutes.) STAFF REPORT
Mr. Van Allman clarified that these lots were dual frontage from 419 and Highland and
they front both streets. The side on Highland is very residential and 419 is kind of like a
bowl. There will be some issues that will have to be worked out at Site Plan stage of the
process in regard to Stormwater. This is an issue that they are aware of. He noted that
some of the lots would be kept residential and the other one will go to all Highway
Business District. He indicated that some of the subdivision plats that were submitted as
exhibits could be confusing but that two of those lots would remain residential.
Mayor Turk opened the public hearing.
Ben Crew, acting agent on this request, Balzer and Associates, 1208 Corporate Circle,
Roanoke, He shared that the property owner, Neal Wall, was with him this evening. He
said that this request was pretty straightforward, and that Mr. Wall had owned the
property for some length of time as well as adjacent lots. He explained that they were
rezoning one lot in its entirety and a portion of two other parcels such that the residential
portion is being maintained on the back basically concentrating the commercial on
Electric Road. He referenced the Planning Commission minutes and the information
contained there as well as a comprehensive Staff report prepared by Max Dillon.
Mr. Holliday asked what was being looked at on the commercial side as far as
possibilities for businesses.
Mr. Crew responded that what was outlined in the package was a drive thru restaurant
Item #4B
Date: 9/11/2023
and that was what it was being targeted for positive growth in that area.
Mr. Foley asked if they were planning to fill the big bowl and level that out as part of the
plan.
Mr. Crew responded that as part of the development, the site would need to be raised up
to street level and he anticipated this would be done as part of the development.
Mr. Holliday asked to clarify which part of 419 was being referred to for reference for the
members of the audience.
Mr. Crew said that if you were looking at Midland and Electric Road across from
Hardees and Carter Bank that this is directly across the street. He said that this is a
unique spot with the commercial corridor on Electric Road, the industrial development
down Midland and the residential pocket as well. There are three zoning layers there
in that section of 419. He shared that this information is available for review as part
of the agenda packet on the website.
Mayor Turk closed the public hearing.
Randy Foley motioned to adopt ordinance on first reading for the request of Neal Wall,
property owner, for rezoning the properties located at 1139 Highland Road (Tax Map

HELD AT CITY HALL
AGENDA ITEM: Amendment to the Zoning Ordinance
Consider ordinance on second reading for the request of Helm Building
Enterprises Ltd., property owner, for rezoning the property located at 105
St. John Road (Tax Map # 155-3-2) from HBD Highway Business District
to HM Heavy Manufacturing. (Approved on first reading at the August 28,
2023, meeting.)
SUBMITTED BY: Max Dillon, Planner
SUMMARY OF INFORMATION:
SITE CHARACTERISTICS:
Zoning: HBD Highway Business District
Land Use Plan Designation: Industrial
Existing Use: Vacant
Proposed Use: Lease Space – Flexible Warehouse with Office Space
The subject property (105 St. John Road) consists of a 0.816 acre tract of land which currently sits within
the HBD Highway Business District designation. To provide a bit of history, the large parcel known as
416 Electric Road was formerly zoned HM Heavy Manufacturing, and at that time it encompassed the
parcels now recognized as 71 St. John Road and 105 St. John Road. A 2007 subdivision resulted in the
formation of 71 St. John (retaining its HM Heavy Manufacturing designation), and a subsequent rezoning
adjusted 416 Electric Road (which included the yet to be formed 105 St. John Road) from HM Heavy
Manufacturing to HBD Highway Business District. Since then, 105 St. John Road has been subdivided
and created, and this request seeks to return it to the HMHeavy Manufacturing classification. This parcel
is currently vacant; however, it is within the St. John Place Commerce Center which is primarily
comprised of properties zoned HM Manufacturing.
The applicant plans to mimic the development of flexible commercial lease space which is currently being
constructed at 71 St. John Road. Although most of the site is in the floodplain, the building pad will be
elevated above the 100-year floodplain to meet the necessary requirements. As depicted on the concept
plan, the proposed development will be accessed via St. John Road.
The Future Land Use Map (FLUM) identifies this area as industrial which is consistent with the proposed
utilization of the property.
REQUIREMENTS:
The proposal meets the requirements of Section 106-220.3. Site development regulations for HM.

Item #5B
Date: 9/11/2023
AT A REGULAR MEETING OF THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF SALEM, VIRGINIA
HELD AT CITY HALL
AGENDA ITEM: Amendment to the Zoning Ordinance
Consider ordinance on second reading for the request of Doyle Properties, LLC,
property owner, for rezoning the property located at 2005 East Main Street
(Tax Map # 78-2-2.11) from RSF Residential Single-Family to HBD
Highway Business District. (Approved on first reading at the August 28,
2023, meeting.)
SUBMITTED BY: Max Dillon, Planner
SUMMARY OF INFORMATION:
SITE CHARACTERISTICS:
Zoning: RSF Residential Single Family
Land Use Plan Designation: Commercial
Existing Use: Vacant
Proposed Use: Storage Space for owner’s personal property
The subject property (2005 East Main Street) consists of a 0.557 acre tract of land which is situated
within the RSF Residential Single Family zoning district. The property is currently vacant, and the
property owner is currently in the process of removing excess vegetation which interferes with utilities.
According to the City of Salem’s zoning ordinance, an accessory structure cannot be placed on a parcel
which possesses the RSF designation without the existence of a principal structure (house). As a result,
the applicant is requesting to rezone the property from RSF Residential Single Family to HBD Highway
Business District in order to develop the site and place an approximately 3,400 square foot, pre-
engineered structure initially designed to accommodate the storage of classic cars. With that in mind,
the site will be developed in a fashion that will ultimately facilitate a transition to other commercial uses
permitted by the HBD zoning district. If approved, site details including but not limited to required
parking and landscape buffering would be finalized during the site plan review process.
The Future Land Use Map (FLUM) identifies this area as commercial. While storage of the owner’s
personal property alone may not be commercial, the size and type of the proposed building is of a
commercial nature. Because the site design/layout and building structure are conducive to commercial
uses, it will be an easy transition of the property in the future.
REQUIREMENTS:
The proposal meets the requirements of Section 106-214.3. Site development regulations for HBD.

Date: 9/11/2023
AT A REGULAR MEETING OF THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF SALEM, VIRGINIA
HELD AT CITY HALL
AGENDA ITEM: Amendment to the Zoning Ordinance
Consider ordinance on second reading for the request of Neal Wall, property
owner, for rezoning the properties located at 1139 Highland Road (Tax
Map #230-2-7) and portions of 1127 (Tax Map #230-2-5) and 1133
Highland Road (Tax Map # 230-2-6) from RSF Residential Single Family
to HBD Highway Business District. (Approved on first reading at the
August 28, 2023, meeting.)
SUBMITTED BY: Max Dillon, Planner
SUMMARY OF INFORMATION:
SITE CHARACTERISTICS:
Zoning: RSF Residential Single Family
Land Use Plan Designation: Residential
Existing Use: Residential
Proposed Use: Restaurant – Quick Service
The subject properties and portions thereof (1139, 1133, and 1127 Highland Road) included in this
request together total approximately 1.162 acres of land which is situated within the RSF Residential
Single Family zoning district. Each of the subject parcels are home to a single family residence, two of
which will remain (1133 and 1127 Highland Road) if this rezoning request and subsequent development
are approved.
The applicant is requesting a rezoning of the subject area from RSF Residential Single Family to HBD
Highway Business District in order to create a lot suitable for a quick service restaurant. As depicted on
the concept plan, the quick service restaurant of approximately 3,600 square feet would be served by a
double drive-thru, with access points on both Midland Road and Electric Road (right-in, right-out only). If
this request is approved, the appropriate landscaping and parking requirements, along with the required
buffer yard between the commercial use and remaining residential units, will be fulfilled through the site
plan review process.
The Future Land Use Map (FLUM) identifies this area as residential which is not consistent with the
proposed utilization of the property; however, the properties’ unique location along Electric Road (with
an adjacent signalized intersection), a corridor with a mix of residential, commercial, and industrial uses,
renders it compatible with anticipated future commercial development.
REQUIREMENTS:
The proposal meets the requirements of Section 106-214.3. Site development regulations for HBD.

REZONING REQUEST NARRATIVE:
On behalf of Neal Wall (Owner/Applicant), Balzer and Associates, Inc. (Agent) is
requesting a rezoning of the subject parcels or portions thereof at the signalized
intersection of Electric Road (Route 419) and Midland Road/Indiana Street within the
City of Salem. The proposed use of the parcels includes a commercial restaurant with
drive-thru lanes to serve the facility. A breakdown of the zoning is provided below and
associated parcels. A conceptual site plan has been provided as Exhibit A, which outlines
the proposed improvements for the project.
Parcels to be Rezoned:
1. Rezone a portion of Tax Parcel 230-2-5: (1127 Highland Road Salem, VA 24153)
a. Existing Zoning: RSF – Residential Single Family
b. Proposed Zoning: HBD – Highway Business District
2. Rezone a portion of Tax Parcel 230-2-6: (1133 Highland Road Salem, VA 24153)
a. Existing Zoning: RSF – Residential Single Family
b. Proposed Zoning: HBD – Highway Business District
3. Rezone Tax Parcel 230-2-7: (1139 Highland Road Salem, VA 24153)
a. Existing Zoning: RSF – Residential Single Family
b. Proposed Zoning: HBD – Highway Business District
Existing Site Conditions:
The three (3) existing parcels are located along the public right of ways of Electric Road,
Midland Road, and Highland Road and are currently owned by Neal Wall. All of the
parcels contain single family homes currently and a portion of tax parcel 230-2-7
adjacent to Electric Road was previously utilized as a fill site in preparation for the
subject development. The single-family home located on 230-2-5 and 230-2-6 will
remain.
Electric Road is a principal arterial road and based on 2021 data carries approximately
18,000 vehicles per day. Traffic information was not readily available for Midland Road
or Highland Road.
The property is not located within a FEMA defined floodplain district nor are there
unique or sensitive environmental features on the subject properties including historic
districts/structures.
The adjacent public right of ways contain public water and sanitary sewer mains that can
serve the proposed development.
2 | Page
Proposed Improvements:
The proposed improvements for the project include the construction of a one-story
approximately 3,600 sf commercial restaurant with double drive-thru. The associated
improvements on-site are typical for a commercial restaurant including required parking,
loading, refuse containers and specific access for patrons.
Any building or freestanding permanent signage will be provided per the City of Salem
signage ordinance.
Landscaping will be provided for the site including a buffer yard adjacent to the single
family residential located to the North and East of the subject parcels.
Access:
Vehicular access is proposed in two (2) locations including full access on Midland Road
indicated as Access A and a right-in-right out indicated as Access B on Electric Road.
Impacts to traffic will be limited as these access locations are shown to provide maximum
separation from the existing signalized intersection and also respond to existing
infrastructure in place on the surrounding street network.
Comprehensive Plan and Future Land Use Map
The comprehensive plan for the City of Salem supports commercial growth and
development along major commercial/industrial corridors. This section of Electric Road
(Route 419) is unique in that there are multiple commercial zoning designations including
Highway Business, Heavy and Light Manufacturing, and Residential Business as well as
Single Family residential zoning all located in this area. The site is located at an existing
signalized intersection in which vehicles from industrial, commercial, and residential uses
access this location and therefore is consistent with for the proposed use.
The future land use map indicates these properties as residential, therefore we have
maintained an appropriate ‘zoning layering’ from the more intense commercial along
Electric Road to the residential along Highland Road. This project concentrates the
majority of the commercial elements along Electric Road and maintains the two (2)
exiting single family residences and associated zoning along Highland Road.
This project will be developed in accordance with applicable regulations including the
City of Salem Zoning Ordinance.

SUMMARY OF INFORMATION:
The City was awarded ARPA funding in the amount of $31,164,631. In the fiscal year
2023 budget, $25,950,000 was appropriated in the General Fund, freeing up local funds for
other uses. In fiscal year 2023, excess local funds of $15,622,584 were appropriated in the

Improvement project.
The fiscal year 2024 adopted budget for the General Fund includes the remaining ARPA
funding for general government services. Utilizing these funds for general government
services is an eligible use of funds per guidance issued by the United States Department of
the Treasury and will free up local funds for other uses. Excess local funds of $1,963,047
need to be appropriated in the Capital Projects Fund as a reserve for future projects.
Excess local funds of $3,247,584 need to be appro priated in the Water and Sewer Capital
Fund to fully fund the North Salem Water Improvement project.
FISCAL IMPACT:
Federal funding of $5,210,631 will be used to cover general government services in the
General Fund, freeing up local funds for other uses.
STAFF RECOMMENDATION:
Staff recommends appropriating $870,500 in the Water and Sewer Capital Fund in fiscal
year 2023 to the Transfer From General Fund account 50-051-0300-49900 and to the

MEETING DATE: September 11, 2023
AGENDA ITEM: Request to amend the School Cafeteria Fund budget as

H:\Board Reports\Year End State Category Budget Adj 08082023 - Narrative.doc
Salem City Schools
FY 2023 Budget by State Category
August 8, 2023
Summary of Issue:
Presented for your consideration are amendments to the 2022-23 School
Cafeteria Fund budget. Amendments are required for a variety of reasons.
When the Board adopts the budget, it is based on known facts and assumptions
made throughout the budget process. Over time, these assumptions change;
demands may be made by parents and/or students, state mandates previously
unknown may come in to play, additional revenue may be received by the school
division through donation or grant, student enrollment may change, and even the
Board itself may place additional requirements on school finances. Any State
category that spends above its appropriated budget must be reconciled and any
revenue increases to the budget requires Board and Council approval before
funds can be utilized.
The School Operating Fund remains in a positive financial position. No State
category adjustments need to be made this year for this fund.
The Cafeteria Fund remains in a positive financial position. During the year-end
review of accounts, the cafeteria fund is showing more expenditures than
budgeted for FY 2023 in the amount of $31,325.96. On the revenue side, with
the anticipated commodities entry still to be recorded, it is expected that the entry
will increase the amount of revenue we will receive to exceed the revenue
budget as well. The anticipated revenue is $200,000, so the offsetting entry to
ensure we do not exceed our budget would be an increase of the budget of
$120,000. Revenues and expenditures must match, so the request will be to
increase the budget by $120,000 in anticipation of the commodity revenues that
will show as posted once information is received from the State and the offset s
will be within the food costs expenditure lines.
Policy Reference:
DA-BR Budget Transfers
Fiscal Impact:
The budget adjustments in Attachment A will increase the revenue and
expenditure budgets in the School Cafeteria Fund in total by the same amount of
$120,000.
Recommended Action:
Move approval of the budget amendments in the School Cafeteria Fund as
presented and recommend that City Council approve the same .

Dear Council Members:
The Salem Band Boosters filed an Admissions Tax form, with a tax payment of
$4,422.46. This amount is based upon the ticket sales for our annual Drum Corps
International Summer Music Games competition that was held at the Salem Stadium on
August 1, 2023. This event is our largest fundraiser for the band program at Salem High
School.
In past years, City Council has been very supportive of the Salem Band Boosters and the
Salem High School Band by making a contribution to the Boosters equal to the amount of
the Admissions Tax paid. This contribution has been a tremendous help toward the
expenses for the band’s activities. We request that at the next Council Meeting,
consideration be given to making a similar contribution this year. If our presence is
necessary at the Council Meeting, please advise me of the date, time and location and I
will be happy to present my request in person.
Thank you very much for your consideration of this request. Again, we cannot say how
much the Band Boosters appreciate the support from our City Council. Thank you for
your support of our high school band as they continue to represent the City of Salem in
the finest “Salem Tradition”.
Sincerely,
