Dear City Council Member,

As a Roanoke City resident, I strongly urge you to vote NO on the zoning ordinance amendments proposed for September 16, 2024. These changes will undermine single-family neighborhoods, diminish property values, and fail to address affordable housing needs effectively. Your vote against this amendment is crucial for preserving the character and stability of our community.

Thank you for your consideration.

Sincerely,

A concerned citizen
