Historic Resources -$83,921 in funding for 2.6 part-time FTEs
?
restores year-round operations and programming levels for the
historic house museums, which will provide more educational
opportunities for citizens and school children.
Aquarium-28.43 part-time FTEs will be converted to 22 full-
?
time positions. This conversion is cost neutral and will result in a
decrease of 6.43 FTEs.

Museums and Historic Resources
FY 2011-12 Trends & Highlights:
Restored staffing for the historic house museums is anticipated to return
?
attendance and revenue to FY 2009 levels, as well as better serve Virginia
Beach citizens and school children.
A decline in projected IMAX® ticket sales is the primary reason for the
?
$327,268 decrease in the Aquarium’s FY 2012 Operating Budget.
Aquarium membership participants and revenues reached record levels in
?
FY 2011 following the opening of Restless Planet. Strategies to retain those
members and produce modest growth are included in the FY 2012 budget.
Modest growth in Aquarium ticket sales is anticipated in FY 2012.
