Mayor Lee called the October council meeting to order and asked Clerk Susan McCord to call the roll; a quorum was confirmed.
Roanoke City Council held a joint legislative/EDA meeting in October to set city legislative priorities (public safety reciprocity, juvenile gun penalties, fentanyl mandatory minimums), review enterprise zone and stormwater funding requests, hear an Economic Development Authority presentation (including a proposed ArtSpace affordable-housing project and a new small-business equipment grant program), receive an update on the Roanoke Center for Industry and Technology (RCIT/Tract 8) and a detailed briefing on homelessness (2024 summer point-in-time count and requests for transportation and voucher support).
