SPE,tK[NC, A7- TCCI - 2 - CITY COUNCIL BRIEFING URBAN PARTNERSHIP 11:00 AM. ITEM # 40381 Governor Linwood Holton advised North Carolina, South Carolina, Georgia and Tennessee are all growing faster in terms of per capita income and numbers of jobs than Virginia. 7he ability of municipalities in @e other states to work together for economic development has been a major factor in location of jobs in @e other states. Governor Holton cited three examples of regional cooperation: Development of Port of Hampton Roads: After fifteen years of coordination and management by a single Authority, the Port of Hampton Roads has handled over 800,000 containers in one year and will shortly exceed I -MILLION. 71tis is a regional economic development which was brought about thrvugh funds from the State. 7he pores were purchased frmn the municipalities and the state subsidized the construction and organized same to fund capital investments through its own revenue. Conversion of F@ PWn to an Industrial Par* (Southwest Virginia): All of the localities, which were part of Planning District No. 1, coordinated to acquire the land comprising approximately 1,000 acres and provide the facilities ie. utilities, railroads, rail siding. 7he Tennessee Valley Authority participated. In an area of serious unemployment because of the deterioration of employment in the coal mines, 1000 high -paid jobs resulted from regional cooperation. Coordination of municipalities in a sewerage treatment facility in Roanoke Valley: 7lie municipalities devised a facility which would eliminate a bad effect from the effluent into the downstream portion of the Roanoke River. Benefits are flowing to Bedford County, Campbell County, City of Lynchburg, Pillsylvania County, Franklin County, Roanoke County, City of Roanoke, Town of Vinton, the City of Salem and Botetourt County, which is also part of the treatment facility. Under the Regional Competitiveness Act, the centerpiece of the legislation, the municipalities may form regional partnerships that contain the geography they wish. 7he suggestion is to utilize the Planning @ct. 7he legislation @is the localities to create the region they wish. Once a regional partnership is created and a regional strategy is established, the region becomes eligible for participation in the Re@l Incentive Fund. Wtimately, the Fund should comprise $200-MILLION. 7his is less than 112 of one percent of the State Special and General Fund Budgets. 7he regional partnership participates in the fund in an amount established by the proportion between the population of the region and the population of the state. Once that amount is establisher it is allocated to the members of the Partnership. 7he division within the region is subject to agreement by the regional partners. 7his is not a poverty pvg@ but an economic development program. In order to qualify for the Regional Incentive Fund, two or more localities must develop a plan that would use certain criteria and weights to access the extent of regional activities. February 13, 1996 - 3 - CITY COUNCIL BRIEFING URBAN PARTNERSHIP ITEM # 40381 (Continued) 7'he Mayor eirpressed concern relative the criteria and weights to assess the extent of regional activities and the reason "watern only counted 4. ,Regional Revenue Sharing or Growth Sharing Agreements 10 Education 10 Huntan Services 8 Local Land Use 8 Housing 8 Special Education 6 Transpo@n 5 LAw Enforcement 5 Economic Development 4 Solid Waste 4 Water and Sewer Services 4 Corrections 3 Fire Services and Emergency Medical Services 3 Libraries 2 Parks and Recreation 2 Only 68% of the doftu from the City @ taxes to the City come back to Virginia Beach. Norfolk may be as high as 82%. Concern was expressed relative the disparity in the legislative process not only in the state, but also the federal government. Governor Holton advised economic development would provide an equal @Hnership. Governor Ilolton was concerned ;'irginia Beacl; which was one of the major economic development potentials in the State, understand this legislation and not harbor doubts. Governor Hokon advised the Bills in the House Committee on Counties, Cities and Towns, by a vote of 1 7-3 %dth one abstention was passed unanbnously in the Senate Committee on Local Government 77ie @ in the House was 89-10 in favor of House Bill No. 1515, the centerpiece of the Urban Partnership's legislation -- the Regional Competitiveness Act and 39-1 in the Senate. 7he opposition has benefitted from the educational effort. February 13, 1996 4 CITY MANAGER'S BRIEFING TON ROADS PUBLJCIPRIVATE PARTNERSHIP INITL4T@ 12:00 NOON ITEM # 40382 Mr. James X Spare, City Manager, advised last June the Mayor@ and Chairs group identified a group of 15 @ sector individuals to meet with the 15 Mayors and Chairs to discuss the mechanism in the region to allow the addressing of certain regional issues. 7he publiclprivate Steering Committee was asked to address three mauers: 7he validation of the 2007 Work in Progress. 7he identification of "Hot Button" issues. 7he development of a formal structure to implement. 7he publiclprivate partnership agreed the most informed way to get at these issues was to establish a S&ategic Planning Task Force which would operate under the guidance of the %eenng Committee 7hat Task Force, Included some of the region's most thoughtful strategic planners, was put together and spent its @ six @hs or so studying and discussing how to move Hampton Roads and its economy forward. A non-stock, not-for-profit corporahon was also suggested 7his organization, when established, funded and staffed, %ill have the ability, by virtue of its membership, to bring about posifive change through the efforts and collaboration of others in business, industry, education and government 7he membership shall be mbW with the public and private sector. 7he FLred Directors shall include (a) Mayors, Chairs or Chief Fxecudve Officers of each City and County in Ilampton Roads, lb) Presidents of each four-year educational bwitution located in Hampton Roads (c) Leadership of each branch of the military services in the area and (d) Chairman of the Hampton Roads Planni;ig District Commission. 7he Elected Directors AWI be from the private sector and selected by a nomination process.

AU documents are hereby made a paH of the record. Mayor Oberndorf advised she would be unable to attend as she would be in Richmond to DRAFT a budget for the F'zrg@ Munic@ League. Concerns should be reflected relative the Contract and the $]W,000 for an Executive Director Wth three employees, this appears excessive. Caution must be addressed relative the type of financial commitpnent requested and the expectations of the Military and private sector. 7he City Manager estimated the commihnent to be appraxinmiely $50,000 - 60,000 per year. Vice Mayor Sessoms believed the funding for the Executive Director wwuld be from the private sector. Ihe City Manager shall provide a list of all Regional bodies in existence and their fiinctions and budgets as a comparison with this proposed Hampton Roads PubhclPnvage Partnership.

ITEM # 40383 Mayor, face Mayor and City Manager met with the Mayor, Vice Mayor and City Manager of Norfolk to @s, as the CFL was not locating widun the are@ the possibilities relative a consultant developing a M4 to respond to the chances of brin&g profe@onal sports of a m4or kague caliber to the @ re&n. Norfo& had spent considerable time nwrking with a consultant previously perusing these issues. An approach was proposed focused on the two largest cities in the region taking the lead OVorfolk md Beach) and retaining a consultant to analyze and @ a report not only to the Nw cities but to the remainder of the region. 77iis report would pr@ily focus on ARBA Bas or AM Hockey as the NFL appeared to be too far "out of reach'. If requested by the Cities, the Greater NorfoLt Corpora@ and Virginia Beach lesions have indicated support to be involved in some role. Mayor Oberndmf advzsed Mayor Paul D Fraim had indicated the study to be performed by the Regional Au@ity, as %vil as the study paid for by the City of Norfolk both recommended the Arena be located in N@Lt 7he meeting commenced with the three perimeters (1) all Cities should be a part in order to have a chance of success; (2) If consultants are to be employed they should be unencumbered in the conc@on; ani4 (3) there must be equal consideration of location. Mayor Oberndoif has discussed the concept with Mayors Ward and Webb and requested Mayor Fraim also contact them. Mayor Fraim has dtsc&we,d the concept wak Mayor Jones in Suffolk Both Chesapeake and Portsmmth would like to participate inftwly. Vwginia Beach Visions has reduced their commihnent to less than $10,000. Vice Mayor Sessoms advised the discussion also entailed the possibility of a convention center or cukural facno. If any professional team is going to be successful in the Regio?; it will take all the Cities partic@. Irice Mayor Sessoim advised the expenses are $6,000 per month and the City was requested to be responsibk for one-half of this amount. However, this was just casual conversation, not a formal proposal If this could be spread out through the private sector, Greater Norfolk Corporation and Virg@ Beach Visions, Vice Mayor Sessoms hoped the City Managers and Economic Development Directors could confer with Llorrow Sport Ventures and come back with specific recommendatwns as to a possible co"tract 77te HOK study performed thru the Hampton Roads Sports Authority recommended the City of Norfolk for the location cf the Arena. 77je facility would cmprise approximately 20,000 seats. The City Manager advised Virginia Beach has stressed a screening panel to choose the consultant. Vice Mayor Sessoms advised the sM4 would also include a funding mechanism for other cities to benefi4 @ther it be through a convention center for Virginia Beach or some type of cultural facility. It is not a foregone conclusion that Harrow Sport Ventures would be the consultant. Cowwt@ Dean suggested Suffolk as a more preferable location. Counci@ Heischober advised he Kw no @ger a member of L4e Sports Au@ity, however, when HOK was requested to make a study of location this @ enc sed an indoor arena &hat combined Old Dominion University and this region. 7he study focused on where could an stadium be located that would serve both ODU and the rest of the area. In fac4 ODU and the SPOR7S AUTHORIYY shared 50-50 in the study. HOK advised in order to acc e ODU and the are,% downtown Norfo& is the venue. ODU advised they wanted the facility to be on their campus, so they pulled out of the study and are moving ahead with their own 10,000 indoor comb sports center. Art Collins can advise how &his location was decided. Urban settings versus suburban settings compete favorably. If location is back on the table, this concept should be pursued. Mayor Oberndorf advised the designation of the 20,000 seat arena be located in downtown Norfo& was part of the proposal @ by Mayor Fraim and Vice Mayor Riddick 7hey were requesting the contribution in a study relative the appropriate financial structure for both securing a fi-anchise and construction of the necessary physical facilities with a recommendation for appropriate cost and benefit sharing for this area. BY CONSENSU@ the City Council believed a study should be performei4 but the location remain on the table. All cities will be given the opportunity to participate in the beginning. 7he policies relative the NBA franchises shall all be determined 7his does not commit the City to participate in the financing at this particular point.

E d Savings: $ 20,000 In the Sc@l Division was actively and aggressively pursuing a plan to stay within appropriation and within budget. Since October, the status of federal revenue can best be described as uncertain. In October, the School Division estimated Federal Impact Aid at the same level it received in 1994-95 or $8,450,879. That estowe was $4,523,794 less @ what was budgeted in 1995-96. Between October and December, data received through constant communication with federal officials was revised to reflect actions by Congress. In January, estowed Impact Aid revenue was revised to $7,605,791, or $845,088 less than in October Department of Defense revenues were also revised fi-om an October estimate of $1,968,384 to $1,181,030 in January or by $787,354 due to changes in federal funding and eligibility levels. In summary, federal revenue estimated in January was $1,678,781 less than projected in October. State revenue estimates in October totaled $194,855,105. In @uary, the revenue was revised downward, due prwwtly to the School Diviswn receiving $584,952 less than budgeted for Reinedial Summer School and $673,093 less in state sales tax to $193,620,345. State sales tax revisions were received in late December. Estimates for state sales tax are made by the State Department of Taxation. Estimated state revenue estimates in January were $1,234,760 less than projected in October. In October 1995, local revenue was estimated at $148,555,596 or $500,000 more than budgeted. Estimated revenue in January 1996 is only $1 76,06 7 more than budgeted but a decrease from the October estimate of $323,933. Ihe City has met 100 percent of the budgeted revenue. In summary, revenue was estimated to be approximately $4,250,911 less than budgeted in October. Due to changes in Impact Aid and Deparoment of Defense @ing, less State sales tax than anticipated less state aid for categorical accounts, and less revenue from other local resources, the shortfall in revenue is estimated to be $7,48@385. 7he City Council appropriated $358,365,490 for expenditures. Encumbered fiends carried forward fi-om 1994-95 totaled $108,723, increasing the 1995-96 budget to $358,474,213. 7he October analysis of expenditures indicated that, if no changes were made, the School Division would expend $360,820,528, or $2,346,315 more than appropriated With the implementation of the projected deficit reduction plan, the estimated expenditures have been reduced to $355,461,448 (Column Four total of $355,8,89,272 minus $427,824 in adjustments or $3,012,765 LESS THAN APPROPRL4TED. February 13, 1996 - 16 - CURRENT STATUS OF SCHOOLS'BUDGET SHORTFAU ITEM # 40388 (Continued) 77;ere is apotential the Sc@ Division could receive additional revenue exceeding Three Million Dollars. Revenues from the Re@ Specml EAwcasum Center ($200,000) and the early retirement program ($125,#") are fairly certaipl Revenues fi-om additional students @ estimated are good based on @ical trends ($275,000). Personnel savings will grow each month and are not as certain due to fluc s in resignations and retirements. Revenue from the state for the ADM error must be aggressively pursued. With revenues being $7,488,385 less @ appropriated and @nditures being only $3,01Z 765 less than appropriate4 there exists the possibility of a shortfall between revenue and @nditures of $4,475,620. If all revenue sources are realized and no further savings in expenditures occur, that shortfall could be as low as $1.0-MILLJON Upon presenting this report to the School Boarit Board members asked the school administration to prepare a report outlining potential areas of reductwns to the projected shortfall in revenue. 77tose recommendatwns were presented on February 6 to the School Board and are outlined below: Ohe day of unpaid leave for all staff (close all schools and offices on June $ 1,450,000 14, a teacher records day) Close all departmentslschools June 24 - June 28 (11 and 12-month 1,000,000 employees) No pay EJbx@e cafeteria @tors at elementary schools 90,000 Flininate allpart-time help 60,000 Eliminwe spring athletics (includes salary supplements, officials, police, 360,000 and equownt) Delay all summer school programs until July 1, 1996 30,000 Elimbwe all wor@s for balance of year 30,000 Defer all repairs to schools 225,000 Do not staff any vacancy (except teachers and bus drivers) 80,000 No overmw (erxept emergencies) 50,000 Cancel before-and-after-school activities (include before-school and 100,000 after-sc@ childcare) - savings on utilities Do not refer students to private institutions (e.g. Richard Milburn and 200,000 SECEP) Fdiminate the Student leadership Summer Workshop 40,000 Delay @er recreation programs until July 1, 1996 (savings on utilities) 40,000 Charge Parks and Recreation DiTarhnent for utility costs for before-and 250,000 after-school activities for first semester 1995-96 (July 1995 - January 1996) 7he above list was in no way a recommendation or endorsement of such reductions. 7he items listed are not in any priority order. 7he reductions listed total $4,050, 000. Since the issuance of that report, other items suggested include: Reducing all adult education clmses, except where nwndated orfun4Ung Freezing all Imandated spending (except emergencies) E ngldeferring all nonmandated instructional programs Efiminating all publications, except those that update the public on flvcal crises.

Beach, Va. 23456 RE: Application For an encroachment permit by the owners of 4501 Oceanfront Ave., Va. Beach, Va. 23451 Dear Mr. Lawson: I understand that the owners of 4501 Oceanfront Ave. have applied for an encroachment permit allowing them to plant a row of hedges in the city right-of-way along Oceanfront Ave and 45th St. I also want to point out that they have already planted the shrubbery in question. Their application comes as a result of a complaint that the City received.Their action of placing this shrubbery in the right of way has eliminated a substantial amount of public parking. I estimate that they have eliminated approximately 130 linear feet along Oceanfront Ave and 100 linear feet along 45th St. I am opposed to their request for the reasons listed below and request that this letter be placed in the file and given consideration when arriving at your decision. 1. I believe that their intent for planting the shrubs in the right-of-way is two fold. First, and foremost, they want to eliminate the publ.iclv- right to park along those two streets. This parking has existed for as long as I can remember and I have used this parking for the past 20 years during the summer. Secondly, by eliminating this parking, they are dramatically increasing their property. When you consider the amount of land that is in question (230 linear feet times 15 feet wide (3,450 sq. ft.), that represents .46% of the standard lot size (5Oxl5O) at the North-end. I would estimate that the value of a lot in their location to be worth around $225,000. Based on that, they propose to acquire the equivalent of $103,500 worth of real estate (.46 x $225,000) without paying for it or paying any real estate taxes! 2. The hedges are planted 5 feet off of the edge of the road pavement. Oceanfront Ave is not a particularly wide road and as such, this hedge does not allow vehicular traffic any margin of error in the event that a car or truck needs additional room to run off of the surface of the road in order to provide more room for a large passing car or truck. 3. This application, if approved, will establish a precedent that is not in the best interest of the public. I do not believe that public property should be taken from the public for the benefit a private owner. If approved, what will prevent every owner on 45th at, and every other street at the North-end from doing the same thing? How can you tell the next owner on 45th St that they cannot do the same thing. To allow owners to take away public parking for their own benefit is, in affect, privatizing the public beaches by eliminating the public's access to the beach by eliminating parking. I understand that the owner feels that they should be allowed to do this because everyone else at the north end does it. The City cannot possibly monitor the entire City for encroachment violations such as these;however, when the are brought to the attention of the City, as this has, the City has the obligation to do what is in the best interest of the public and not a private owner. I do not believe that approving this application is in the best interest of the public and as such, it should not be approved. I would ask that someone from your department contact me to keep me informed as to the progress of this matter. I would like to be notified when this matter is to go before the City Council. Thank you for your consideration in this matter. I can be reached during the day at 490-8300. Sincerel @bq(k R. Mark Johnson Michael A. Via 1404 N. Bayshore Dr. Virginia Beach, VA. 23451 March Mr. Jim Lawson City of VA. Beach Office of Real Estate 170 Municipal Center Virginia Beach, VA. 23456 Dear Mr. Lawson, I am writing in reference to the encroachment of private property and the elimination of public parking located at 4501 Oceanfront Ave. I have been using the beach and parking on this street for the past 22 years. Now one property owner has willfully disregarded and violated the rights of many public citizens to access the beach at this location. If every owner decided to do the same, where in God's name would we be able to park to access the beach and public property? No one person should be able to condemn public property for private use. Such wanton disregard of the rights of others causes ill will among citizens. We all must respect others rights, especially when it involves the greater needs of the public over individuals. The fact that this particular property owner believes he can do anything he wishes without prior city approval is unconscionable and needs to be denied any further consideration. Although this individual is obviously incapable of doing the right thing, I trust the city will by restoring the rights of the public in this case and any others such as this. Thank you for your consideration and assistance in this matter. Sincerely, @ 6. Vc,: Michael A. Via - 27 - Item V-L.2.c.
