Plans for a new Victory Stadium in Roanoke will move forward.
(------------)
[VO-NAT]
Plans call for the new stadium and amphitheater to be built adjacent to the Roanoke Civic Center. But to proceed with the project, zoning at the proposed site needed to be changed. Last night, Roanoke City council voted on the issue.
[SUPER=03-Roanoke;]
At first, Mayor Ralph Smith thought the measure passed, but learned it actually failed because five yes votes were needed, leaving the costly project hanging in the balance. After a brief recess and some negotiation, another vote was taken, and the measure passed unanimously.

States that keep tabs on sex offenders will be paying close attention to a case coming before the U-S Supreme Court.
The justices will hear a challenge to Connecticut's registry which is very similar to Virginia's system.
All states require some kind of list of sex criminals... Some are based on an evaluation of whether the offender is likely to repeat.
But in Connecticut, the notification is based on the person's record.
The question is whether it violates the constitutional rights of past offenders by putting their names on the list without giving them a chance to show they're no longer a danger to society.

Roger Lamm owns Tavern on the Market.
He'd like to see the city close off the streets four days a week so that he could leave his tables up.

And by the time set up IS complete and visitors are actually served -- Roger says it could be as late as eight o'clock.
Still visitors say they're just glad there's something different on the menu for the market.))
