Mr. Dawson advised the Navy has been contacted and the concept aligns with their plans. Concerning access, the Rudee Boardwalk has been developed to allow driving on the Boardwalk to provide access to the boats. Concerning eliminating on-street parking, Ms. Carlton advised the on- street parking has not been eliminated in many places; it has been taken from diagonal to parallel parking. Mr. Dawson advised when individuals come to dine in the evening, they do not mind the stroll from the Municipal Parking Garages to the retail. Councilman Uhrin advised there would be structured parking to satisfy the needs of the new development. Mr. Dawson advised you cannot under estimate the need to perform a more detailed Resort Parking Strategy review. Some of the parking currently is in the wrong place. Councilman DeSteph inquired where the funding was derived to add a management company to manage the whole Oceanfront and how would the Workforce Housing work at the Oceanfront. Mr. Dawson is working with the Cincinnati Center City Development Corporation (3CDC) and the City of Cincinnati. Foundations and corporate leaders sponsor the funding for a management group. There is some budgetary relief from the City; however, the majority is carried by the private sector. Lynn Carlton advised this is a project for the long term; but, as the development grows, monies can be placed in afund to encourage the Workforce Housing. The financing could be through the developer, or businesses and sometimes through the management entity with a special assessment. This would be a method to create more Workforce Housing. October 14, 2008 III - 10- C IT Y MANA G E R 'S B R IE FIN G RESORT AREA STRATEGIC PLAN ITEM # 58112 (Continued) Councilman Villanueva inquired re the time line for the Environmental Impact Statement. Councilman Uhrin advised Hampton Roads Transit is hoping to secure the funding from the State this November/December time frame. HRT will be the entity to carry out the contract. Robert Matthias, Assistant to the City Manger, advised being assured the City will receive $2-MILLION from the Virginia Department of Transportation. Secretary Homer has indicated he is attempting to make this a priority. Tomorrow, October 16, 2008, the Commonwealth Transportation Board is going to be unveiling the restricted new six-year plan. Another 60% cut in urban secondary and primary funding. However, Secretary Homer has said if any new project is included, it will be the funding for the new Environmental Impact Statement (EIS). Councilman Diezel inquired re the non-Summer Worliforce Housing in terms of how far the workers commute. In Myrtle Beach, the commute is sometimes thirty (30) miles or more. There is a tremendous influx of Summer workers from Eastern Europe and other nations. Mayor Oberndorf inquired if any of the Resort Area that does bring in these wonderful young people from abroad to work and have the businesses provide a cooperative so they could defray the cost of building the facility that would serve the needs as far as staffing the different stores and restaurants. Thus, not having to be provided by the taxpayers. MI'. Carlton advised these accommodations would be provided through the Housing Fund. Councilman Uhrin referenced an initiative of Yaron Sabony, owner of Sensations. at the Oceanfront who had converted an old hotel into dormitory facilities for the foreign exchange students. This provides a safe environment for the students at a reasonable rent. Councilman Uhrin advised one of the components of the Environmental Impact Statement will be to analyze the entire grid of bus service. Mr. Dawson, advised rather than parking in the culmination of the project, transit would be relied upon. The parking plan and mass transit go "hand-in-hand". Councilman Wood advised, HRT will place as many buses on the road as needed; however, the City Council must prioritize. Once, the Environmental Impact Statement is completed, the deficiencies will be noted. Relative the funding, Mr. Dawson will provide the Mayor contact information for the Executive Director of (3CDC) Cincinnati Center City Development Corporation, who can provide information relative the assessment to the business communities and the foundations. Mayor Oberndorf advised she attended a Chamber of Commerce Field Trip to Cincinnati and they did show these improvements. Councilman Uhrin emphasized the depiction of the Viking Hotel on Atlantic Avenue. It is the owner's intent to actually redevelop this Hotel this year into a mixed use office and retail with parking internal to the site. Mr. Whitney advised the form based zoning concept to implement the Resort Area Strategic Action Plan is a companion to the Plan. The existing zoning ordinance requires a lot of work. not only in the Resort Area, but elsewhere in the City in order to affect the plans of the community. On October 28. 2008, City Council will consider a Resolution to direct the Strategic Plan for a recommendation. The final plan is scheduled to be considered by City Council on December 2, 2008. A work effort will be planned to revise and reform the zoning ordinance in order to implement this plan. The zoning ordinance will affect the entire City. As the Strategic Growth Areas are being developed, a plan with refinements to the zoning ordinance may be necessary. October 14, 2008 III - 11 - C IT Y MANA G E R 'S B R IE FIN G RESORT AREA STRATEGIC PLAN ITEM # 58112 (Continued) Mayor Oberndorf requested footnotes be made concerning the length of time of this study, the number of individuals participating and the location of the meetings. Councilman Uhrin advised this power point will be on line. Councilman Uhrin suggested an additional slide be added which will quantify the process with the stakeholder input enlarged. Mayor Oberndorf referenced the Newtown SGA, and if this included Newtown Road encompassing the Carolanne Farms area and higher density. Would the residents of her area have a chance to sit down at a "round table" and be informed of the concepts to light rail as well as what this would mean to them and their particular areas. Pubic safety is a major concern in her neighborhood. This topic was made apparent during the Candidates Forum at the Carolanne Farms Civic League. Mr. Herbert advised re the Newtown SGA, the same processes will be followed with the Resort Area and Burton Station SGAs, with major emphasis on public involvement. October 14, 2008 III - 12 - CITY COUNCIL COMMENTS 4: 12 P.M. ITEM # 58113 Mayor Oberndorf advised this will be the first year the Marine Corps is bringing the Birthday Ball to the Convention Center in Virginia Beach. Mayor Oberndorf has attended the Ball for the past twelve (12) years, urging them to move the Ball back to the Beach. The representatives were most impressed with the facilities. Councilman Dyer advised the Marine Corps takes their Ball very seriously, like watching a Broadway show. The Marines have upgraded the Marine Corps Museum at Quantico. ITEM # 58114 Council Lady Henley referenced the City finances and although the analysis concerning revenues are received, a presentation to guide the City Council would be beneficial Council Lady Henley requested time to allow for regular updates re revenue and expenditures. The City Manager advised the 5-year Forecast is scheduled for November 18, 2008. Details are still being received re the Governor's requests. At 2:00 P.M, this afternoon, October 14, 2008, a cut was received on the 599 Public Safety Funds OF s $388,000 (the City's share statewide). The $7.5-MILLION shortfall IS in terms of fuel and elderly tax relief Revenues are under performing in the amount of approximately $4-MILLION on an annualized basis and the State cuts are approximately another $4- MILLION. Therefore, in this current year, it is about a $15. 5-MILLION problem. The departments are working toward adjusting this loss. Council Lady Henley just wanted to be kept "up-to-date ", even if with just a short explanation at each of the City Council meetings. ITEM # 58115 Council Lady Henley referenced last evening, October 13, 2008, the Agricultural Advisory Commission met. Earlier in the year, there was a Police representative in attendance. The Police Officer discussed the problem with farm use vehicles. Certain vehicles for farm producers are legally not licensed, as long as they area utilized for agriculture within a certain distance of the farm. Unfortunately, non-farmers also tend to violate the privilege. A "sticker" program has been devised by the Police Department. The Agriculture Department will administer this program and only give stickers to producer farmers for their trucks. This will enforce validity. The Fire Department also indicated an issue concerning burning, particularly in wheat fields. The Fire Department is often mistakenly called. A program has been instituted, where a yard sign will be issued advising a permit has been given for a permitted burn. The Virginia Beach Farm Bureau will be funding both of these programs and they will develop the stickers and signs. ITEM # 58116 Council Lady Henley referenced two (2) invitations, both for the afternoon of October 29, 2008, in the southern portion of the City. A reception, 2:00 P.M - 4:00 P.M has been scheduled at the Senior Resource Center - 912 Princess Anne Road, as their first year celebration. That same afternoon, 4:00 P.M - 6:00 P.M is a "Harvest Ag Gathering" This event will be a "welcome" to the new Director of Agriculture, David Trimmer. A "Pig Picking" dinner will be served. This event will be held at Land of Promise Farms, 3169 Land of Promise Road. October 14, 2008 III - 13 - CITY COUNCIL COMMENTS ITEM # 58117 Councilman DeSteph expressed appreciation to the Secret Service and the Hilton Hotel staff for their guarding the safety of Republican Vice Presidential Candidate Sarah Palin re her overnight stay on Monday, October 12, 2008. ITEM # 58118 Councilman DeSteph read an e-mail from the President of the USO - Hampton Roads, John Thompson, advising well over two hundred (200) disabled Vets, on speciality bicycles riding through Norfolk and Virginia Beach, participated in the "Road to Recovery" this past weekend. Sergeant Burnett co- ordinated this event for the Police Department. John Thompson said to please pass on his appreciation to all the motorcycle Police that escorted the "Road to Recovery". Councilman DeSteph has received four (4) different telephone calls referencing this spectacular event. ITEM # 58119 Concerning finances, Councilman DeSteph advised at the State level, there have been one hundred (100) layoffi. The State advised the reductions will be under nineteen hundred (1900). Councilman DeSteph hopes the City Manager and Robert Matthias could receive more accurate numbers relative reductions. Councilman DeSteph also requested a projection, not only on the year 2009, but 2010. Councilman DeSteph requested information concerning the City's approach to this situation. Councilman Villanueva advised hiring freezes are in place, and the department directors are examining 5%/10%/15% cuts. The City Council needs to join with the City Manager and staff in conversation to thoroughly consider some of these financial issues. Further study might merit some kind of solution. The right balance must be ascertained. Councilman Dyer believes the financial situation underscores the Ordinance scheduled for tonight's City Council Session: Ordinance to AMEND ~ 2-20 of the City Code re time and place of regular City Council meetings Currently, the City Council has regular meetings on the First, Second, and Fourth Tuesday of each month. This ordinance will change City Council's regular meetings to the 2nd and 4th Tuesday of each month and City Council will convene Workshops on the First and Third Tuesday of each month. Therefore, there will be two (2) Workshops per month. These changes will allow more collaborative discussion with the Virginia Beach City School Board. the City's Legislative Delegation and our budgetary items. If a particular area of the City may be involved, the City Council could conduct their Workshop in that vicinity. If adopted, this Ordinance would be effective Januarv 1, 2009. After adoption of this Ordinance, the City Manager will distribute a questionnaire re City Council's discussion topics. These can be prioritized in developing the City Council's agenda. These can be structured through the Agenda process and planned on the calendar for the whole year. October 14, 2008 III - 14 - CITY COUNCIL COMMENTS ITEM # 58120 Mayor Oberndorf advised she and Council Ladies Henley, McClanan and Wilson have been contacted by very conscientious members of the City, who are very anxious to have a "no kill" animal shelter. The City Manager has formulated a description of the type of individual to administer the shelter. Therefore, it would not be a burden on the Police Department. This will entail an appropriation. The City Manager referenced the Resolution (ADOPTED: March 4, 2008) Resolution to SUPPORT an Adoption-Friendly Animal Control facility (requested by Mayor Meyera E. Oberndorf). A couple of progress reports have been issued. One of the key elements that the Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals (SPCA), Animal Control, the Police Department and the City Manger's staff identified is to create the Animal Control Manager. The Budget would have to be amended. A timetable has been outlined re this recruitment. The City Manager wishes to have the position filed shortly after the first of the year to work with the community and the architect in the location and design of the new facility, as well as to start managing the shelter. This can be scheduled for the City Council Session October 28, 2008. ITEM # 58121 Council Lady Henley inquired re the number of items that would require a new appropriation. She feared the reserve for contingencies would be depleted. The City Manager advised the only (3) new appropriations of which he has knowledge: Ordinance to ESTABLISH a Capital Improvement Program [CIP] project and TRANSFER the necessary funds for the Town Center Pedestrian Safety Improvements (October 14, 2008 City Council Session) Ordinance to TRANSFER funds and APPROVE two (2) full-time, City-funded positions re Commonwealth's Attorney Office re domestic violence. (ADOPTED: October 7, 2008 City Council Session) Ordinance to APPROPRIA TE funds for the Animal Control Manager of the new Adoption-Friendly Animal Control facility ITEM # 58122 Councilman DeSteph advised this past weekend the City Attorney and his staff rewrote the Community Legislative Agenda preface. On Monday, October 13, 2008. the City Manager, City Attorney, Robert Matthias - Assistant to the City Manager, Patricia Phillips, Director - Finance, and Councilman DeSteph reformatted the entire Community Legislative Agenda. During the Community Legislative Agenda Discussion, City Council Workshop, Tuesday, October 21, 2008, Item 10 (Automatic Enrolment for New Employees into the City's Deferred Compensation Program, 11 (Do not Refund Employer Paid Contributions), 12 (Job Related Disabilities) and 13 (Retirement Benefits for Involuntary Separation) will be reviewed and ramifications discussed. Issue papers to the communities affected by the Community Legislative Agenda have not been distributed. The Employee's Review Task Force should be reconvened to examine some of these issues. October 14, 2008 III - 15 - CITY COUNCIL COMMENTS ITEM # 58122 (Continued) Concerning Items 10, 11, 12 and 13, Council Lady Henley requested relevant recommendations from the Employee Benefits Review and the Blue Ribbon Tax, Fee and Spending Task Forces. Councilman Diezel concurred with Council Lady's suggestion. The employees need to be advised of the issues. ITEM # 58123 Councilman DeSteph advised currently the Mayor, Vice Mayor City Manager, City Attorney and City Clerk compile the Agenda. Councilman DeSteph suggested the City Council follow the School Board's method of preparing the Agenda. Their Chairman would rotate different School Board members to compile the Agenda.

B-ll 11" APPENDIX C to the Bond Sale Agreement USE OF PROCEEDS CERTIFICATE [FOR NEW MONEY] The $ General Obligation School Bonds, Series 2008 (the "Bonds") issued by [Name of Local Unit] (the "Issuer") will be purchased by the Virginia Public School Authority ("VPSA") from the proceeds of the VPSA's $ School Financing Bonds (1997 Resolution), Series 2008 B (the "VPSA's Bonds"), pursuant to a Bond Sale Agreement dated as of the sale date of the VPSA's Bonds. The proceeds of the Bonds will be used to finance the costs of acquiring, constructing and equipping public school facilities owned and/or operated by the school board for the Issuer (the "School Board"). The Issuer and the School Board each recognize that certain facts, estimates and representations set forth in the Certificate as to Arbitrage executed by VPSA in connection with the issuance of the VPSA's Bonds must be based on the representations and certifications of the Issuer and the School Board, upon which VPSA and Sidley Austin LLP, its bond counsel ("Bond Counsel") rely, and that the exclusion from gross income for federal income tax purposes of the interest on the VPSA's Bonds depends on the use of proceeds of the VPSA's and the Issuer's Bonds. Accordingly, the Issuer and the School Board hereby covenant that: Section 1. Description of Project and Refunded Obligations. The proceeds of the Bonds, including investment income thereon ("proceeds"), will be used to finance the acquisition, construction, and equipping of public school facilities ofthe Issuer (the "Project"). Section 2. Governmental Use of Proceeds. The Issuer and the School Board covenant the following with respect to the use of proceeds of the Bonds and the facilities financed therewith: ( a) In General. (i) Private Business Use. No more than ten percent (10%) of the proceeds of the Bonds or the Project (based on the greatest of: (A) the cost allocated on the basis of space occupied, (B) the fair market value, or (C) the actual cost of construction) has been or, so long as the Bonds are outstanding, will be, used in the aggregate for any activities that constitute a "Private Use" (as such term is defined below in subsection (d) of this Section 2). (ii) Private Securitv or Pavment. No more than ten percent (10%) of the principal of or interest on the Bonds, under the terms thereof or any underlying arrangement, has been, or, so long as the Bonds are outstanding, will be, directly or indirectly, (A) secured by any interest in (I) property used for a Private Use or (II) payments in respect of such property or (B) derived from payments in respect of property used or to be used for a Private Use, whether or not such property is a part of the Project. (b) No Disproportionate or Unrelated Use. With respect to private business use disproportionate to or not related to governmental use financed or refinanced with the C-l 11" proceeds of the Bonds, no more than five percent (5%) of the principal of or interest on such Bonds, under the terms thereof or any underlying arrangement, has been, or, so long as the Bonds are outstanding, will be, directly or indirectly, (x) secured by any interest in (I) property used for a Private Use or (II) payments in respect of such property or (y) derived from payments in respect of property used or to be used for a Private Use, whether or not such property is a part of the Project. (c) No Private Loan Financing. No proceeds of the Bonds will be used to make or finance loans to any person other than to a state or local governmental unit. (d) Definition of Private Use. For purposes of this Certificate, the term "Private Use" means any activity that constitutes a trade or business that is carried on by persons or entities other than state or local governmental entities. Any activity carried on by a person other than a natural person is treated as a trade or business. The leasing of property financed or refinanced with the proceeds of the Bonds or the access of a person other than a state or local governmental unit to property or services on a basis other than as a member of the general public shall constitute Private Use unless the Issuer obtains an opinion of Bond Counsel to the contrary. Use of property financed or refinanced with proceeds of the Bonds by any person, other than a state or local governmental unit, in its trade or business constitutes general public use only if the property is intended to be available and is in fact reasonably available for use on the same basis by natural persons not engaged in a trade or business ("General Public Use"). In most cases Private Use will occur only if a nongovernmental person has a special legal entitlement to use the financed or refinanced property under an arrangement with the Issuer or the School Board. Such a special legal entitlement would include ownership or actual or beneficial use of the Project pursuant to a lease, management or incentive payment contract, output contract, research agreement or similar arrangement. In the case of property that is not available for General Public Use, Private Use may be established solely on the basis of a special economic benefit to one or more nongovernmental persons. In determining whether special economic benefit gives rise to Private Use, it is necessary to consider all of the facts and circumstances, including one or more of the following factors: (i) whether the financed or refinanced property is functionally related or physically proximate to property used in the trade or business of a nongovernmental person; (ii) whether only a small number of nongovernmental persons receive the economic benefit; and (iii) whether the cost of the financed or refinanced property is treated as depreciable by the nongovernmental person. As of the date hereof, no portion of the Project is leased (or will be so leased) by the Issuer or the School Board (or a related party or agent) to a person or entity other than a state or local governmental unit or to members of the general public for General Public Use. C-2 1111 (e) Management and Service Contracts. With respect to management and service contracts, the determination of whether a particular use constitutes Private Use under this Certificate shall be determined on the basis of applying Revenue Procedure 97-13, 1997- 1 C. B. 632, as modified by Revenue Procedure 2001-39, 2001-2 C.B. 38 (collectively, "Revenue Procedure 97-13"). As of the date hereof, no portion of the proceeds derived from the sale of the Bonds is being used to finance or refinance property subject to contracts or other arrangements with persons or entities engaged in a trade or business (other than governmental units) that involve the management of property or the provision of services with respect to property financed or refinanced with proceeds of the Bonds that does not comply with the standards of Revenue Procedure 97-13. For purposes of determining the nature of a Private Use, any arrangement that is properly characterized as a lease for federal income tax purposes is treated as a lease. Consequently, an arrangement that is referred to as a management or service contract may nevertheless be treated as a lease. In determining whether a management contract is properly characterized as a lease, it is necessary to consider all of the facts and circumstances, including the following factors: (i) the degree of control over the property that is exercised by a nongovernmental person; and (ii) whether a nongovernmental person bears risk of loss of the financed or refinanced property. Section 3. Time Test and Due Diligence Test. The Issuer or the School Board have incurred or will incur within 6 months of the date hereof substantial binding obligations, which are not subject to contingencies within the control of the Issuer or the School Board or a related party, to third parties to expend at least 5% of the net sale proceeds of the Bonds on the Project. The Issuer and the School Board will proceed with due diligence to spend all of the proceeds of the Bonds within three years of the date hereof. Section 4. Dispositions and Change in Use. (a) No Sale or Disposition.

The total amount of reimbursed costs incurred by the Issuer with respect to the Project is not expected to exceed $ . Such expenditures were paid prior to the date hereof but no earlier than sixty (60) days prior to _, _, which is the date the Issuer or the School Board adopted its "official intent" declaration (the "Official Intent Declaration") in accordance with Section 1.150-2 of the Treasury Regulations. The Official Intent Declaration: (i) was, on the date of its adoption, intended to constitute a written documentation on behalf of the Issuer that states that the Issuer reasonably expected to reimburse itself for such expenditures with the proceeds of a taxable or tax-exempt borrowing, (ii) set forth a general description of the Project, and (iii) stated the maximum principal amount of debt expected to be issued for the Project. Neither the Issuer nor the School Board has taken any action subsequent to the expression of such intent that would contradict or otherwise be inconsistent with such intent. (b) Reasonable Official Intent. As of the date of the Official Intent Declaration, the Issuer reasonably expected to reimburse such expenditures with the proceeds of a borrowing. The Issuer does not have a pattern of failing to reimburse expenditures for which an intention to reimburse such expenditures was declared and which were actually paid by the Issuer other than in circumstances that were unexpected and beyond the control of the Issuer. (c) Reimbursement Period Requirement. The proceeds derived from the sale of the Bonds to be applied to reimburse the above-described expenditures will be so applied no later than the later of the date that is (i) eighteen (18) months after the date on which the expenditure being reimbursed was paid, or (ii) eighteen (18) months after the date on which the portion of the Project to which such expenditure relates was placed in service (within the meaning of Section 1.150-2 of the Treasury Regulations) or abandoned. The Issuer shall not, however, use Bond proceeds to reimburse the above-described expenditures later than three (3) years after the date the original expenditure was paid. (d) Reimbursable Expenditures. The expenditures to be reimbursed are either (i) capital expenditures (within the meaning of Section 1.150-1 (b) of the Treasury Regulations), (ii) costs of issuance, (iii) certain working capital expenditures for extraordinary, nonrecurring items that are not customarily payable from current revenues (within the meaning of Section 1.148-6 (d) (3) (ii) (B) of the Treasury Regulations), (iv) grants (within the meaning of Section 1.148-6 (d) (4) of the Treasury Regulations), or (v) qualified student loans, qualified mortgage loans or qualified veterans' mortgage loans (within the meaning of Section 1.150-1(b) of the Treasury Regulations). None of the C-5 1111 expenditures to be reimbursed were incurred for day-to-day operating costs or similar working capital items. (e) Anti-Abuse Rules. No portion of the proceeds of the Bonds being used to reimburse the Issuer for prior expenditures will be used, directly or indirectly, within one year of the date of a reimbursement allocation, in a manner that results in the creation of replacement proceeds (within the meaning of Section 1.148-1 of the Treasury Regulations), other than amounts deposited in a bona fide debt service fund. Section 13. Private Activity Covenants. The Issuer and the School Board each represents, warrants and covenants that it will take no action that would cause either the Bonds or the VPSA's Bonds to be private activity bonds within the meaning of Section 141(a) of the Code and that it will not fail to take any action that would prevent the VPSA's Bonds and the Bonds from being private activity bonds, within the meaning of Section 141(a) of the Code. Furthermore, the Issuer and the School Board have established reasonable procedures to ensure compliance with this covenant. Section 14. No Artifice or Device. None of the proceeds of the Bonds will be used in a manner that employs an abusive arbitrage device under Section 1.148-10 of the Treasury Regulations to avoid the arbitrage restrictions or to avoid the restrictions under Sections 142 through 147 of the Code and the Issuer has not engaged and will not engage in a transaction or series of transactions enabling it to exploit the difference between tax-exempt and taxable interest rates to gain a material financial advantage and which increases the burden on the market for tax-exempt obligations, including selling obligations that would not otherwise be necessary or issuing obligations sooner or allowing them to remain outstanding longer than would otherwise be necessary. Section 15. Covenant as to Arbitrage. The Issuer and the School Board each represents, warrants and covenants that whether or not any of the Bonds remain outstanding, the money on deposit in any fund or account maintained in connection with the Bonds, whether or not such money was derived from the proceeds of the sale of the Bonds or from any other sources, will not be used in a manner that would cause the Bonds or the VPSA's Bonds to be "arbitrage bonds" within the meaning of Section 148 of the Code and the applicable regulations thereunder. Section 16. Tax Covenant. The Issuer and the School Board each represents, warrants and covenants that it will not take any action which will, or fail to take any action which failure will, cause the interest on the Bonds or the VPSA's Bonds to become includable in the gross income of the owners of the Bonds or the VPSA' s Bonds for federal income tax purposes pursuant to the provisions of the Code and the regulations promulgated thereunder in effect on the date of original issuance of the Bonds and the VPSA's Bonds.

Spore Dave Hansen, Deputy City Manag~iI FROM: SUBJECT: Town Center Pedestrian Safety Improvements As requested by City Council, Public Works and Parks and Recreation staff have conducted a Town Center Pedestrian Safety Improvement Study and the results are attached. The study focuses on reducing the risk to pedestrians while crossing the busy roads of Town Center. This review focused on: mid-block pedestrian crossing, major intersection pedestrian crossing, and pedestrian signal operation. Mid-block pedestrian crossing has become an issue on Virginia Beach Boulevard between Constitution Drive and Independence Boulevard. Staff has provided three versions of a strategy to reduce this activity, each of which incorporates a median treatment ofplantings, trees and decorative fence to discourage mid-block crossing. The cost of the three options ranges from $132K to $167K. The cost variation is contingent upon the alignment of the fence and quantity of pJantings. Staff is recommending that we install decorative fencing on both sides of the median to ensure pedestrian visibility of this barrier and therefore, accomplish the intended effects. (Concept One) Staff also looked at two major intersections: Virginia Beach Boulevard/Independence Boulevard and Virginia Beach Boulevard/Constitution Drive: · Virginia Beach BoulevardlIndepeodence Boulevard: Mechanical repairs and a reevaluation of the signal light timing were conducted and no additional changes were recommended for the crosswalk infrastructure currently in place. 1[11 Town Center Pedestrian Safety Improvements September 5,2008 Page 2 . Virginia Beach Boulevard/Constitution Drive: Because no pedestrian crossing exists at this location the staff is recommending the installation of a pedestrian crossing infrastructure to support increased pedestrian traffic created by implementation of the median pedestrian barrier described above. Installation of pedestrian signals and a crosswalk costs $41 K. This pedestrian crossing will be similar to the pedestrian crossing at Central Park Boulevard and Virginia Beach Boulevard. Pedestrian safety is a major concern for City leadership and the growth of Town Center has created a heightened risk for our citizens. It is the recommendation of staff to request City Council appropriate $208,000 from our reserve for contingency fund. These funds would be used to install the mid-block pedestrian crossing barrier (fence and landscaping) and a pedestrian crossing signal and crosswalk. Should you have any questions please contact Bob Oey, Public Works Traffic Engineer or myself. DLH/s Attachment c: Les L. Lilley Steve Herbert Catheryn Whitesell Jason Cosby Jack Whitney Warren Harris John Fowler Bob Oey 1111 Pembroke Pedestrian Safety Improvement Study This report addresses concerns regarding pedestrian safety in the Pembroke area of Virginia Beach. During City Council discussion about the pedestrian bridge to be constructed from Town Center to Pembroke Mall, questions were raised about what can be done now to improve pedestrian safety. This report addresses specific concerns that have been brought forward. . Pedestrians are cross mid-block across Virginia Beach Boulevard and walking across the median rather than using existing pedestrian crosswalks to get from Town Center to Pembroke Mall. . The second issue is that pedestrians are coming in conflict with traffic at existing crosswalks. . The third question is why don't we look at providing enough time for pedestrians to cross all the way across Virginia Beach Boulevard rather than crossing half way. . The fourth issue is the need to install pedestrian crosswalks and signals at Constitution and Virginia beach Boulevard. Mid-block pedestrian crossin!! The concern is that it is not safe for pedestrian to cross mid-block and could result in serious injury. While police can help to address this issue, ticketing pedestrians is counter intuitive to the pedestrian friendly image that we are promoting for Town Center. The next alternative would be to create an attractive physical barrier in the median of Virginia Beach Boulevard. Examples of these can be seen in Norfolk as well as other Cities. The idea is to install a fence preventing pedestrians from crossing mid-block. The challenge is to do this attractively to fit into the character of Town Center. For the purposes of this report, three options have been evaluated along with estimated cost. Project Area: Virginia Beach Boulevard Median from Constitution Drive to Independence Boulevard Scope: The project scope is to develop a fence and planting improvements in the median to encourage pedestrians to cross Virginia Beach Boulevard at marked and/or signaled pedestrian crossings. Fence heights and general locations were determined by Public Works Traffic Engineering. Two general area zones were identified where no fence could be located and general areas where a fence of approximately 48" could be located. In addition, various sites were visited and photographed to show similar existing alternatives. III Existing Conditions: The existing median is a combination of concrete paving, curb, signals and lights and existing trees and plants. The significant constraints of the site are the existing location of trees, lights and signals and underground utilities. The existing trees, lights, signals and underground utilities are primarily focused in the central spine of the median. Concepts: Three concepts were developed addressing the above scope and existing conditions. All concepts have cost estimated for ground cover and shrubs with a few tree replacements. The detailed design has not been completed. In addition, all three concepts estimated the fence as a 48" bronze aluminum picket fence. The concepts and estimated costs are listed. · Concept I: Fence on both sides of the median, with a central spine of fence in areas of existing concrete. Total fence and planting estimate: $167,000.

III This is another picture of the median in Norfolk showing the fence along with plantings. III Impacts of providin!! additional pedestrian crossin!! time across Vir!!inia Beach Boulevard Staff has evaluated the concept of providing exclusive pedestrian phases at the Virginia Beach Boulevard/Central ParklPembroke Mall and Virginia Beach Boulevard/Independence Boulevard intersections. Currently, these intersections operate such that the pedestrian walk phases allow pedestrians to cross only halfway to the median of the eight-lane roadway during the walk phase. This section of the Town Center Pedestrian Report documents Traffic Engineering's evaluation that included conducting pedestrian counts at key Town Center intersections, observation of existing pedestrian signal operations and preliminary analysis of the impacts to the vehicular traffic that would result from providing exclusive pedestrian phases at these intersections. Existing Pedestrian Volumes In response to this evaluation request, Traffic Engineering staff conducted pedestrian counts at the Virginia Beach Boulevard and Independence Boulevard as well as Virginia Beach Boulevard at Central ParklPembroke Mall intersections on Thursday, June 5th. The results of those pedestrian counts are as follows: Town Center Pedestrian Counts Thursday, June 5, 2008 Inde endence Boulevard cross Across B Blvd. Inde . Blvd. 10 12 3 12 11 Central Park A venue cross Across B Blvd. Central Park 11 1l 122 121 3 170 The pedestrian counts show that pedestrian activity at the Virginia Beach Boulevard/Independence Boulevard intersection is light throughout the day and is of a random pattern of use. In contrast to this is the pedestrian activity at the Virginia Beach Boulevard/Central Park Avenue intersection, where significant pedestrian volumes were observed crossing Virginia Beach Boulevard from Pembroke Mall to Town Center, particularly during the lunch time hours of 11 a.m. to I p.m. The pedestrian volumes would indicate that pedestrians were present in every traffic signal cycle during those two mid-day hours and could have been present every cycle during the evening hours as well. III' Existing Pedestrian Operations In addition to the pedestrian counts, Traffic Engineering staff investigated the operations of the pedestrian signals at the Virginia Beach Boulevard/Independence Boulevard and Virginia Beach Boulevard/ Central Park Avenue intersections. At the Virginia Beach Boulevard/Independence Boulevard intersection, the only time that pedestrian phases can come up is during the adjacent vehicular through movement phase. For instance, pedestrians crossing Virginia Beach Boulevard on the east side of Independence Boulevard can only get a walk signal when the northbound through movement on Independence Boulevard phase is running. The walk symbol cannot occur for this side of Independence Boulevard in any other phase. Similarly, pedestrians crossing Virginia Beach Blvd. on the west side of Independence can only get the walk symbol during the southbound through phase. The walk time for each leg of the intersection is only 25 seconds, meaning that this intersection is timed to have pedestrians cross to the median and wait for the next walk phase to cross from the median to the other side. At the time of the pedestrian signal observation, this intersection did not have pedestrian push button signs to indicate that you should cross only to the median. Also, one of the pedestrian push buttons was found to be broken. Traffic Engineering relayed these pedestrian signal deficiencies to Traffic Operations and by June 20th Traffic Operations reported that new pedestrian signage that directs the pedestrians to cross only to the median had been added and the existing pedestrian push buttons had been replaced with the new responsive "bulldog" pedestrian push buttons on all legs of the intersection. These buttons emit a confirmation tone and light when the button is pushed. At the Virginia Beach Boulevard/ Central Park Avenue intersection, the pedestrian phase for crossing Virginia Beach Boulevard occurs during the northbound Central Park phase. The walk time for the pedestrian phase is only 25 seconds, meaning that this intersection is timed to have pedestrians cross to the median on Virginia Beach Boulevard and wait for the next walk phase to cross from the median to the other side. In observing the pedestrian operations at these two intersections, Traffic Engineering staff identified two areas of potential conflict with vehicular traffic. The first is with right turning traffic that has a green ball indication, meaning that it has the right-of-way. At the Virginia Beach Boulevard/ Central Park Avenue intersection, northbound right turns have a green ball indication while the pedestrians are crossing Virginia Beach Boulevard. At this location, Traffic Engineering has installed a sign which requires right turning vehicles to yield to pedestrians. At the Virginia Beach Boulevard/Independence Boulevard intersection, the right turns on green ball indications are potentially in conflict with pedestrians crossing in front of their turns on all legs of the intersection. III Exclusive Pedestrian Phase Evaluation Traffic Engineering was asked to evaluate what appears at first glance to be a simple idea: Provide a 45 second exclusive pedestrian phase at the Virginia Beach Boulevard/Central Park/Pembroke Mall and Virginia Beach Boulevard/Independence Boulevard intersections. The 45 second phase would allow pedestrians to cross the entire width of these roadways, eliminating the need to cross only to the median and wait until the next pedestrian phase to finish crossing. The exclusive phase would also eliminate the existing conflict between the right turns on green and the pedestrians. Adding "No right on red" signs at these intersections in association with the exclusive pedestrian phase would further increase pedestrian safety by eliminating the newly created potential conflict because pedestrians would now be crossing during the all red phase. The gains in pedestrian accessibility by providing exclusive pedestrian phases would result in significant negative impacts to traffic flow through the Virginia Beach Boulevard and Independence Boulevard corridors. These impacts are described in this section of the report. The most significant impact to vehicular traffic in the Virginia Beach Boulevard and Independence Boulevard corridors would be the increased delay at the intersections. Currently, the Virginia Beach Boulevard and Independence Boulevard corridors have coordinated signal systems through the Town Center area. From Bonney Road to Jeannie Street on Independence and from Aragona Boulevard to Cavalier Drive on Virginia Beach Boulevard, the traffic signals all have the same cycle length and are timed to allow traffic to progress through the corridors to minimize vehicular delays and number of stops, which leads to less air pollution and fuel consumption. All of the intersections in these corridors would have to be retimed with a cycle length of 180 seconds, which is extremely inefficient and would cause increased delays and fuel consumption throughout these two corridors that together serve over 105,000 vehicles per day in 2007. Using simple assumptions, such as a two second vehicle headway through the intersections, 25 foot vehicle spacing, a 180 second cycle length with the exclusive pedestrian phase and saturated flow traffic conditions in the afternoon peak hour, the addition of a 45 second exclusive pedestrian phase would result in traffic backing up over two miles during the afternoon peak hour to the east and west on Virginia Beach Boulevard and to the north and South on Independence, to include the Independence/I-264 interchange which is less then % miles from Virginia Beach Boulevard. This is additional delay over and above what is being experienced today. A second negative impact to vehicular traffic from the exclusive pedestrian phases and the "Right on Red" prohibition would be increased delays on the internal roadway networks for Town Center and Pembroke Mall. These increased internal delays entering and exiting these intensely developed commercial areas would result decreased pedestrian safety on the internal streets due to the queuing of traffic through intersections. Alternative ideas for improved pedestrian operations have also been identified for the Virginia Beach Boulevard/Central Park/Pembroke Mall and Virginia Beach Boulevard/Independence Boulevard intersections, such as extending the existing non- 11I1 exclusive walk phases to 45 seconds only when the pedestrian button is pushed so that pedestrians can cross the entire width of Virginia Beach Boulevard and Independence Boulevard in one walk phase. While this would not result in vehicle queues of two miles, it would result in a significant inefficiency of signal operation throughout the Virginia Beach Boulevard and Independence Boulevard corridors and would result in significant additional vehicular delays and fuel consumption in the peak hours. The existing pedestrian counts show that because of the number of pedestrians crossing Virginia Beach Boulevard during the midday and evening peak hours at Central Park A venue, pedestrians would extend the pedestrian phase on every cycle. This would result in eastbound and westbound traffic on Virginia Beach Boulevard to back up about one mile from this intersection in the afternoon peak hour, over and above current backups. In addition, this would result in this intersection being taken out of coordination with the surrounding traffic signals and northbound and southbound traffic on Independence Boulevard turning onto eastbound Virginia Beach Boulevard would be delayed and queued through other intersections. Conclusions The pedestrian operations at the Virginia Beach Boulevard/Central Park/Pembroke Mall and Virginia Beach Boulevard/ Independence Boulevard intersections have been improved significantly in recent years, and just recently as this evaluation reports, to include better pedestrian signage and direction, responsive push buttons and countdown pedestrian signals. It is undeniable that the addition of an exclusive pedestrian phase at these intersections would be the most convenient and a slightly more safe way for pedestrians to cross Independence Boulevard and Virginia Beach Boulevard in the Town Center area. However, this evaluation has shown that adding an exclusive pedestrian phases at the Virginia Beach Boulevard/Central Park/Pembroke Mall and Virginia Beach Boulevard/ Independence Boulevard intersections would result in significantly increased vehicular delays and fuel consumption in the already over capacity Virginia Beach Boulevard and Independence Boulevard corridors through the Pembroke area. In addition to increased vehicle delay increased vehicular accidents would increase. Due to the significant amount of increased delay, red light running, blocking of side streets, failure to yield all are common and add up to increased vehicular crashes. Considering all aspects of this evaluation, Public Works Engineering's recommendation is to not implement the exclusive pedestrian phase or extended pedestrian phases and to maintain the existing pedestrian operations on Virginia Beach Boulevard in the Town Center area. III Additional Pedestrian Crossin!! We have evaluated the cost of providing an additional pedestrian crossing at the intersection of Constitution Drive and Virginia Beach Boulevard. The total estimated cost for the installation of pedestrian signals and stamped crosswalk for three legs at this intersection is approximately $41,000. The pedestrian crossing would look similar to this existing pedestrian crossing at Central Park Avenue and Virginia Beach Boulevard. III - 32 - Item V-K.4.a/b.
