Oberndorf called to order the CITY MANAGER'S BRIEFING re EMERGENCY MEDICAL SERVICES in the City Council Conference Room, City Hal!, on Tuesday, February 28,2006, 1:30 PM Council Members Present: Harry E. Diezel, Vice Mayor Louis R. Jones, Reba S. McClanan, Richard A. Maddox, Mayor Meyera E. Oberndorf, Peter W Schmidt, Rosemary Wilson and James L. Wood Council Members Absent: Robert M. Dyer [Wife in hospital] Jim Reeve [Entered: 1:40 PM.] Ron A. Villanueva [Entered: Closed Session 4:00 P.M.] February 28,2006 - 2 - CITY MANA GER'S BRIEFING EMERGENCY MEDICAL SERVICES 1:30 P.M. ITEM # 54933 Mayor Oberndorf advised the City Manager was on vacation and recognized Charles Meyer, Chief Operating Officer, who introduced Chief Bruce W Edwards- Emergency Medical Services, to present the third in a series of briefings relative Public Safety Staffing and Deployment. Chief Edwards displayed a chart reflecting EMS Calls for Service by Volume (2001 - 2005). Since 2001, the City's calls for service have increased an average of 3. 5% or 1200 calls annually. This trend is expected to continue into the future. EMS Call Volume is the only public safety service demand that has increased in the last two consecutive years. The top five (5) call types dispatched are: unconscious, illness, cardiac, injurylfall and breathing difficulty. The other category consists of approximately 30 (thirty) call types i.e. seizures, burns, maternities, accidents, et cetera. The greatest number of calls are individuals from sixty-six years of age and older. These account for approximately one-third of all EMS calls. This patient group tends to have multiple or more complex problems. As the population ages, this percentage will only get larger. Emergency Medical Services is a full service department providing a range of special rescue services. EMS is proud of their special teams: Special Operations Incidents Deployments Marine Rescue Vehicle Entrapments SWAT Medics Bike Team SAR Team 221 229 197 38 4 Chief Edwards displayed a map reflecting Geographic Demand. The city is divided into grids of approximately one square mile. Utilizing the grids, the call demands and responses can be plotted to a particular area of the City. The busy zones are highlighted in "purple". Those grids depicted in "yellow" and "white" indicate areas with fewer calls for service. The highest concentration of service calls continues to be within three (3) miles of either side of Interstate 264. As ambulance deployment models are developed, this is an important consideration. Operating Philosophy Integrated system of First Response, Advanced Life Support, Transport Citywide ambulance response Performance measured at the 9(jh percentile level (no averages reported) Average response times are not utilized. EMS data reflects 90% achievement. The 90% percentile indicates the measurement of 90 out of 100 Calls for Service (includes all responses). This percentile measure is much greater than an average. This is a stringent measurement. The Volunteer Rescue Squad system remains strong. There was a net decline in membership during 2003 and 2004. This was attributed to several factors: negative attention impacted morale and some members transitioned to career positions. There has been a net increase in membership for 2005. February 28, 2006 - 3 - CITY MANA GER'S BRIEFING EMERGENCY MEDICAL SERVICES ITEM # 54933 (Continued) Volunteer retention programs have raised morale considerably. Expanded recruiting programs are paying off. (Orientation enrollment up 64%). The goal is to continue with this enrollment trend. Career Personnel Com osition 4 Bri ade Chie s hired in 2004 24 Medics hired in 2004 8 Medics hired in 2005 Advanced Life Support (ALS) delivery Rescue squad augmentation Weekday staffin Four (4) positions are assigned to a Monday through Friday workday schedule, which allows extra ambulances on the streets during the busiest time demand (power shift). Ambulance crews are scheduled under a model which balances a number offactors: geographic coverage, high demand areas and areas with longer travel times. Resources are adjusted in response to call demands. While responding to 2,288 additional calls in 2005 (6.8% increase from 2003), EMS was still able to decrease citywide response times by 19.5% and decrease rural response times by 28.9%. Additional ambulance staffing led to shorter travel times. At least one ambulance crew is assigned to the Shore Drive area. The bulk of service calls are along 1-264. Therefore, this area is assigned additional crews beyond the geographic baseline. There is always a paramedic assigned to Creeds to assist the Rescue Squads with immediate response of an ambulance. A chart indicating Demand vs. Ambulance Response Times was displayed. The response time graph has been overlaid onto the demand chart depicted earlier. As demands have increased since 2001, so did ambulance response times. However, at the addition of the ERS enhancements in 2004, there has been a significant dip in response times, which is related primarily to having more ambulances, and equates to shorter travel times. The data covers all types of calls from low priority illness to heart attacks. These have not been separated by priorities. A graph depicting "First Help and Ambulance" times did not reflect the police response to the most critical call of Cardiac Arrest. This response is consistently one full minute faster than Fire and EMS. Emergency Medical Service's goal is to have an ambulance arrive within six (6) minutes of the first help. However, Chief Edwards would prefer the Priority 1 and 2 achievements be lower. By efforts in the 911 Center, and getting the crews into the trucks faster, some seconds can be "shaved off". The travel time is the largest interval and where EMS will focus their energies. EMS Staffing and Deployment Technology Initiatives Automatic Vehicle Locators (A VL) GPS Mapping Systems Field Reporting Opportunities Princess Anne Commons Careplex Virginia Beach General Hospital Renovations Rapid Cardiac Intervention Project Challenges Increasing Call Demands Aging Population Road System Capacity February 28, 2006 - 4- CITY MANA GER'S BRIEFING EMERGENCY MEDICAL SERVICES ITEM # 54933 (Continued) On the Horizon New Medical Treatment Modalities American Heart Association Guidelines Advanced Airway Techniques Field supervisor force at maximum output Increased staff capacity required to meet increasing demands for the future Charles Meyer advised the pilot Global Positioning System (GPS) program has been funded. In discussions with Resource Management, EMS is attempting to include the GPS in the Automatic Vehicle Locator overall package. Chief Edwards advised the staff is reviewing concerns relative quicker response re ojjloading patients at hospital emergency rooms. The delay is due to hospital overload throughout the region. The new Princess Anne Commons Complex should provide some relief Electronic Field Reporting should also compress the time at the hospital. Chief Edwards was Co-Chair of the Tidewater Emergency Medical Services Regional Diversion Committee for the past two (2) years. Sentara Norfolk General Hospital was being overloaded in the Winter (flu season) and Sentara Virginia Beach General was being overloaded in the Summer (tourist season). Hospitals could not take ambulance patients so they were diverted to another hospital and thus lengthened the travel and response times for the Emergency Medical Services. After meeting with representatives of the hospitals, various processes were developed which eased this problem. Councilman Diezel expressed concern. Information shall be provided which supports eight (8) ambulances per day. Response times shall be depicted in a different format. The location of the ten (10) squads shall be depicted on a map with the four-minute response times blocked out. This would reflect the complexity with geographic and transportation lines. A briefing shall be provided relative this concept. The processing time of the 911 Center needs to be reviewed. With the exception of EMS, protocol screening exists. The only information needed immediately is the incident and address: i.e. house on fire, spouse chocking. After dispatch, the follow up screening could take place. February 28,2006 - 5 - C IT Y MANA G E R 'S B R IE FIN G REAL ESTATE ASSESSMENT ANNUAL REPORT 2:25 P.M. ITEM # 54934 Jerald D. Banagan, Real Estate Assessor, advised on March 3, 2006, the Assessor's Office will mail Notices of Assessment for the Fiscal Year 2007. The City has approximately 148,000 pieces of property with 135,000 homes. Approximately 0.1 % of all properties will receive a decrease in assessment and approximately 98% will receive an increase. The projected assessment is $45,582,234,063, which represents a 21.9% change. Each penny of the tax rate will generate $4,607,000 in revenue for a total tax of $471,734,000 at the current rate of $1.0239. The average assessment change for individual properties is approximately +19.61 %; however, this figure varies citywide depending on the age, type, quality, classification and location of the property. Average Assessment Changes Residential Apartment Commercial/industrial +22.15%, + 9.69% + 9.76% Assessments resulted primarily from sales data of July 2004 thru June 2005. There were 11,333 qualified residential sales with a median ratio of 97%, 265 qualified commercial sales with a median ratio of 96%. The average assessment for a single-family house is $298,900 with an average for all residences being $266,200. The largest assessment increases have been in the most modestly priced properties: town houses and condominiums. Mr. Banagan displayed a graph depicting Average Home Assessment. Over the last three (3) years, a 50% increase is reflected. New construction for the past twelve (J2) months amounted to $629,500,000, which is an increase of 25.8% from the previous year. Residential new construction amounted to 71.9% of the total yearly construction, while commercial/industrial represented 28.1 %.

The number of new houses in Hampton Roads has remained at 5,000 for the past few years. This contributed to the development policies and lack of land in the entire region. The average assessment on a new home is $438,000, an increase of 50% over a three-year time frame Fiscal Year 2006-2007 (Projected) Growth Appreciation Assessment Increase 1.6% 19.7% 21.3% TAX INCREMENT FINANCING and SPECIAL SERVICE DISTRICTS Lynnhaven Mall Shopping District TIF Base Year FY 1998 $ 225.3-MILLION Preliminary FY 2007 $ 450.0-MILLION Sandbridge District TIF and SSD Base Year FY 1998 $ 206.

February 28,2006 - 8 - MAY 0 R 'S IN T ROD U C T ION ITEM # 54935 Mayor Oberndoif invited Charles Meyer, Chief Operating Officer, and standing in for the City Manager, to introduce the City's newest member. Charles Meyer, Chief Operating Officer, introduced David Seamon, Sr., the City's new Chief Development Officer (effective February 27, 2006). Mr. Seamon will assist the City Manager by leading activities directly related to the health and growth of the local economy in the Departments of Planning, Economic Development, Conventions and Visitors Bureau, Agriculture, Housing and Neighborhood Preservation, and Museums and Cultural Arts Mr. Seamon was formerly Assistant City Manager for Development and Finance for the City of Kansas City, Missouri. Before this, he was Director of the Missouri Department of Economic Development's Division of Business Development and Trade from 2003 to 2005. David holds a Master of Business Administration degree from Wake Forest University and has completed coursework for a Master of Global Affairs degree from the Fletcher School of Law and Diplomacy at Tufts University. He has also studied European business at Oxford University. February 28,2006 - 9 - C IT Y MANA G E R 'S B R IE FIN G MINORITY SUBCONTRACTING 2:43 P.M. ITEM # 54936 Patricia Phillips, Director of Finance, presented information re Proposed Procurement Ordinance Changes to Encourage Contracting and Subcontracting with Woman-Owned and Minority-Owned Businesses. The proposed changes will require a Woman and Minority Participation Plan for construction contracts over $50,000 and all Request for Proposals. The awards will still be made to the lowest responsible and responsive bidder. The goal is to strengthen and clarify the City Code in this important area. In November 2004, the City's Minority Business Council (MBC) presented proposed initiatives to City Council. Currently, Minority-owned businesses receive about 2% of City business and woman-owned businesses receive about 1.8% of City business. Mrs. Phillips expressed appreciation to City Attorney Leslie Lilley, Assistant City Attorney Jaime Tyler, Purchasing Agent William Davis, Dean Block, Director - Department of Public Works, Phil Davenport - Public Works Business Manager, Tom Leahy, Director - Public Utilities, Gary Jones - Public Utilities, the Minority Business Council and Barbara Booker- Williams - Minority Business Coordinator.

Proposed Amendment General Overview Require a Woman and Minority Participation Plan for all construction contracts in excess of$50, 000 and all Requestfor Proposals (RFP's). Notice to all Woman and Minority-Owned businesses in database regarding each construction Invitation for Bid (IRE) over $50,000 and for all Request for Proposals (RFP's). Invitation for Bid (IRE) for goods and services over $50,000 will be sent to at least three (3) woman or minority-owned businesses, if possible. Failure to submit a Woman and Minority Participation Plan shall result in a bid being declared nonresponsive. Mrs. Phillips defined "Minority-Owned Business": 51 % owned and controlled by one or more socially and economically disadvantage persons and includes (but not limited to) Black Americans, Hispanic Americans, Asian Americans, Eskimos and Aleuts. Mrs. Phillips distributed a Matrix to detail each proposed revision to the City Code. Said information is hereby made a part of the record.

Mrs. Phillips advised the staff wishes to take the least restrictive approach to encourage Minority participation. The low bid should receive the award. The challenge will be to encourage the subcontractors to be competitive. The City will not be aware of the bids in the Minority Business Participation Plan, but will request the contractor to disclose what Minority firms are intended to be utilized and their method payment. Associate City Attorney Rod Ingram advised debarment is subject to the Freedom of Information Act and would have to be disclosed. February 28, 2006 - 14- CITY MANA GER 'S BRIEFING MINORITY SUBCONTRACTING ITEM # 54936 (Continued) Barbara Booker- Williams, the Minority Business Coordinator, advised the challenges re not having an existing infrastructure re the utilization and availability of woman and Minority owned companies. Mrs. Booker- Williams has been meeting with companies and introducing them to the representatives of Public Works, Public Utilities. This is an incremental process and is contributing toward the growth of the data base. Council Lady McClanan referenced the Virginian-Pilot article of Friday, February 24, 2006 entitled: "In Beach and elsewhere, bidding process changes" by Marisa Taylor. Said article is hereby made a part of the record. Council Lady McClanan requested staff respond with data concerning former City employees bidding for City contract work. Information shall be provided. The City Attorney referenced an Ordinance ADOPTED July 8, 2003: Ordinance to AMEND the City Code by ADDING Sections 2-23,2-91 and 2-451 pertaining to post-employment activities of former Council Members, officers, employees and certain appointees The City Attorney will provide information and a copy of this ordinance. February 28, 2006 - 15 - CITY COUNCIL COMMENTS 3:37 P.M. ITEM # 54937 Councilman Diezel referenced at the Town Hall Meeting for the residents of Kempsville and Centerville, Thursday, February 23, 2006, Salem High School, at 7:00 P.M. The meeting commenced with a statement that everybody at this table had stated they were not for condemning homes for redevelopment by private developers. This was followed by a citation from the Comprehensive Plan interpreted that the Plan is encouraging a Redevelopment and Housing Authority. A question arose: "Would anyone take up the challenge to balance public comments with the written policy?" Councilman Diezel requested, after the results of the Referendum are published, City Council consider if the language in the Comprehensive Plan is at odds with the City Council's philosophical policy, then the Comprehensive Plan will need to be reviewed and/or changed. Mayor Oberndorf referenced attending the United States Conference of Mayor's Leadership Meeting. Two (2) items dominated the conversations: (a) horrendous decision by the Supreme Court and, (b) Port Security as has been reported in the newspaper. ITEM # 54938 Vice Mayor Jones and Councilman Wood, Liaisons, distributed a Summary Report of the Shore Drive Safety Task Force. The Resolution establishing the Shore Drive Safety Task Force was adopted on December 20, 2005. The Shore Drive Safety Task Force had their first meeting January 10, 2006. The purpose of the first meeting of the Task Force was to establish the area of Shore Drive to be studied and then brainstorm ideas for safety improvements. Meetings were conducted on January 31, February 17 and February 21,2006. After the final meeting, staff will prepare a draft report of the recommendations of the Shore Drive Safety Task Force to be presented to the Shore Drive Advisory Committee on March 16, 2006, and then to the City Council on March 28, 2006. The DRAFT report will include short, mid and long-term recommendations in the areas of regulatory, infrastructure and public information. Charles Meyer, Chief Operating Officer, was an excellent facilitator. This information is hereby made a part of the record. Robert Scott, Director of Planning, referenced the encroachments contained within the report. Shore Drive, when platted, was an irregular right-of-way. Railroad elements existed with circular areas and serve no particular function at the present time. There are approximately twelve (12) areas along Shore Drive containing encroachments on public property. The Don Julios right-of-way encroachments involving parking (indicated in "blue '') is probably one of the larger examples. All the encroachments should be addressed.
