decision made by the Department of the Navy to construct 600 housing units

~ Salem and Princess Anne Roads, in the Green Run area.
,uncilman [qcCoy indicated that he was not opposed to the construction proposed
by the Navy, but felt that a site more adequately developed with water, sewer,
highway and school facilities might be more advantageous to ail concerned. In
addition the site contemplated is zoned R-6, wixich means residential single-
family homes, other s~tes are zoned for multiple unit development.
Vice Mayor Ferrell, who lives in the Kempsville Borough, while he did not
oppose the i~avy buildin?~ in the City, indicated theft he felt it is the
responsibility of the Navy to assist financially in school site and building
construction as well as in providing proper highway and drainage facilities.
It was indicated to the Councilmen by Captain Crawford (USN Ret.) that the
Council had adopted a resolution addressed to th.e Navy indicating their desire
to have the buildings constructed in Virginia Beach, but not at Fort Story.
A request made by Councilman McCoy to the Hayor to appoint a committee to
study the proposed Kelnpsville location resulted in Mayor Payne offering to
appoint Councilman McCoy on the original committee, which is scheduled to
meet with Representative G. William Whitehurst nex[ week; however, Councilman
Cromwell, Chairman of the committee, said the meeting is to discuss obtaining
Fort Story land for recreation, not the Navys purchase and use of the Green Run
site.
