Background: Armada Hoffler, a partner with the City of Virginia Beach and the Virginia Beach Development Authority in the development of The Town Center of Virginia Beach, has offered to donate to the City of Virginia Beach a sculpture by the nationally known artist David Turner. The sculpture, named "Heron Trio," is 12' tall and weighs approximately 1,500 Ibs. It is cast in bronze and is valued at $285,000 by the donor. The donor has agreed to pay for installation, and since the sculpture is cast in bronze, there are no significant long-term maintenance concerns. . Considerations: Per Administrative Directive 6.06, the Public Art Committee of the Virginia Beach Arts and Humanities Commission has reviewed the sculpture donation proposal and a site for the installation. After review and discussion with City staff, the Virginia Beach Arts and Humanities Commission recommends that the City of Virginia Beach accept the sculpture and that it be installed atop the fountain in the Fountain Plaza of The Town Center of Virginia Beach. The Committee felt that the theme of the sculpture compliments the public plaza setting and enhances the amenities of this highly visited area. The fountain was initially constructed in a manner to support the size and weight of this type of sculpture, in the hope that one might be secured at some future time. Photographs of the fountain and the sculpture are attached. The Virginia Beach Development Authority, the City Manager's Town Center Advisory Board and the donor have concurred with the recommendation. . Public Information: Public information and notification will be handled through the Council agenda notification process. Meetings have been held with the applicable City departments. . Recommendations: Approve and accept sculpture donation to be placed atop the fountain in the Town Center Fountain Plaza. . Attachments: Ordinance, photographs of sculpture and fountain, resume of artist, and letter from Armada Hoffler to the City Manager outlining the sculpture donation as part of a larger donation to the City of Virginia Beach.

Turner, a father and son team, have been designing and casting wildlife sculptures in bronze. To date they have created more than 300 different limited-edition bronzes and more than 50 large public commissions. Ranging in size from life-size mice and wrens to full-size bears and dolphins, the Turners have a sculpture to fit the smallest niche in a home or to enhance the entrance of a zoo or museum. Whatever the case, the Turners' work is a reflection of their deep appreciation and understanding of nature. Bill and David Turner both grew up and currently reside on the Eastern Shore of Virginia, which is a narrow peninsula sandwiched between the Chesapeake Bay and the Atlantic Ocean. This area is rich in wildlife, both in diversity and density, which continues to inspire the Turners to create works of art in bronze. They created and cast their first bronzes at their family farm, but they quickly outgrew this space. They purchased the property where they are now located on Route 13, near Onley, Virginia. Two wings and nine buildings have been added to their growing facility since 1984. Among these buildings are studios for Bill and David as well as their foundry, gallery, metal shops, wood shop, wax shop, mold room, and storage. The Turner's supervise the entire process of lost-wax bronze casting that they accomplish on site with the assistance of more than 20 skilled artisans. The 4,000+ square feet gallery displays most of the current editions as well as the two dimensional works of local and national wildlife artists. A video tape is available so that one can obtain a better understanding and appreciation of what it takes to design and produce a sculpture using the lost-wax method of bronze casting. One may also view Bill and David Turner's works at 15 galleries nationwide. ,,' I ARMADA HOFFLER I \\ I; l' I I I ~ I' I~. l' , I lOUIS S Haddad PJp.sldent ~nJj Cfn June 8lh 2007 I ~ 1 q \. ~) I \ ~\:G7 James A.

V A 23456 It is with great pleasure that I write to inform you of several contributions that we at Armada Hoffler are underwriting for the collective benefit of the City of Virginia Beach. the Development Authority and the Sandler Center. These donations are intended to enhance the public facilities at Town Center and support the City's continued effort to make the project a destination for all. We do this in honor of the partnership that has been forged between ourselves and the city. Town Center continues to be an unqualified success and a source of pride for all of those involved as well as our citizens. This success is due in no small way to the hard work and vision on the part of your staff. the authority and most significantly Mayor Obemdorf, Vice-Mayor Jones and the rest of City council. Therefore. on behalf of Dan Hoffler. I and the rest of our partners. we offer the following items which collectively exceed one million dollars: I. As previously discussed and agreed, the donation of land necessary for The Sandler Center at our cost thereby forgoing market value. This $400.000 in kind donation hopefully helped to initiate momentum for the project. 2. We have been extremely impressed with the efforts of Linwood Branch, the steering committee and your enthusiastic staff in raising the required funds for the performing arts center. This group has created an atmosphere of pride and anticipation throughout the community. In support of their efforts we are pledging $300.000. This will be delivered in equal increments over six years. 3. In order to further the image of the plaza at Town Center as the city's central tocal point. we are commissioning world famous sculptor David Turner to create a spectacular sculpture to be placed atop the existing fountain. This will be a 12ft. sculpture of three stylized Great Blue Herons. The estimated price of this signature artwork is $285.000. 4. We believe that it is very appropriate to commemorate the significant parties involved in the creation of Town Center. We will engage David Turner along with Burrell Saunders to collaborate on the size and location of bronze recognition panels to be installed at the fountain plaza. We envision two large bronze tiles to be placed in the plaza surface. One will recognize Gerald Oivaris for the vision and commitment so critical to the project. The other will honor the City Council that initially approved of the Town Center development. Lastly. a recognition plaque will be placed on the base of the fountain pool that will recognize Armada Hoffler for their contribution. The cost of these items is approximately 520.000. ~ 272 CenifOl Park fl'ler.ue. SlIlie 2100 V!r~!illa Bf!:lCh.

CITY OF VIRGINIA BEACH AGENDA ITEM ITEM: An Ordinance to Modify the Scope of CIP # 4-051, "Stumpy Lake Golf Course Infrastructure Improvements," to Include On-Course Improvements in the FY 2007-08 Capital Improvement Budget MEETING DATE: December 4, 2007 . Background: The current description and scope of CIP # 4-051, "Stumpy Lake Golf Course Infrastructure Improvements," identifies funding for the design and construction of new city water and sanitary sewer service to Stumpy Lake Golf Course, as well as improvements to the existing entrance road and causeway. The course needs additional improvements in order to attract golfers and remain competitive in the market. The City acquired the facility in 2001 and has not financed any course improvements to date. . Considerations: The estimated cost to provide city water and sewer service to the golf course and to make limited improvements to the entrance road and causeway are within budgeted funds. Should there be a surplus of funds, it is recommended that they be used for on-course infrastructure improvements to remain competitive in the golf market. Some examples to on-course improvements are cart path repair, bunker restoration, irrigation system improvements, greens renovation, drainage improvements and parking lot repaving. A new lease is being advertised, requiring at least $500,000 of improvements to be financed by the successful bidder. It is the intent of the City to undertake the on-course infrastructure improvements through a cost participation agreement with the successful bidder. . Public Information: At an Open House conducted in October 2001, a Citizens Choice Board indicated 86 percent of the respondents favored the City of Virginia Beach continuing to own and lease Stumpy Lake Golf Course on a long-term basis. A Policy Report presented in January 2005, recommended advertising an RFP for the renovation and long-term management and operation of Stumpy Lake Golf Course. . Alternatives: (1) Change the description and scope of CIP # 4-051, "Stumpy Lake Golf Course Infrastructure Improvements" to allow the use of residual funds for on-course infrastructure improvements; (2) create a new project to address the on course infrastructure improvements; or (3) do nothing and continue to let the facility degrade. . Recommendations: Approve the ordinance to expand the scope of CIP # 4-051, "Stumpy Lake Golf Course Infrastructure Improvements" to allow the use of residual funds for on-course infrastructure improvements at Stumpy Lake Golf Course. .

Improvements to the entrance road are planned to include widening, a new asphalt surface, bank stabilization, and the installation of new guardrail. These improvements are an integral component of the Stumpy Lake Natural Area Master Land Use and Management Plan. Purpose and Need Since the City acquired the 18 hole Stumpy Lake Golf Course from the City of Norfolk in 2001, inspections of the property have indicated that numerous infrastructure renovations are necessary. The proposed renovations will widen the very narrow entrance road to the course making the road safer for two way vehicular traffic as well as for pedestrians and bicyclists to access the new Stumpy Lake Natural Area. The installation of City water and sewer service will provide the facility with a reliable source of water and sewer services.
