Mr. Russell Chaplain appeared before City Council concerned about
the energy crisis. Mr. Chaplain equested four things he would
like to see done:
1. Request a special allocation of gas from the Federal
Government to insure an ample supply of fuel for the tourist.
2. Council immediately ask Congressman Whitehurst to
institute proper action to assure our tourist, when
they visit Virginia Beach, that they will not have to
worry about the gas shortage.
3. Write a letter to Vice President Ford commending him
for recognizing the tourist industry as being as important
as any other industry.
4. Advertising campaign be directed with the idea that
our visitors will have ample gas to travel from our hotels,
beaches, and restaurants and still be able to fill their
tanks for the trip home.
Mayor Cromwell stated they would look into the matter and asked
the City Manager to make a report on his findings.
