soon, but, so far, members haven't
taken any options off the table.

VO-NAT VO-NAT
*CG locator Roanoke

The group is waiting for a final
report from the engineering firm
studying the stadium's structural
integrity.

Renovating the current facility
is one option, but the committee is

also considering smaller stadiums at
each of the city's high schools.

Next week, the committee plans to
visit the site near Orange Avenue where
the city had been planning to build a
new stadium before the project was put
on hold.

Members say they hope to begin
eliminating some of those alternatives
at their next meeting in two weeks.

wearing a mask and hooded sweatshirt
entered the Stop-In convenience store
