April 26, 2011 -16 - CITY COUNCIL COMMENTS 2:20 P.M. ITEM # 60819 Councilman Dyer advised that with the Governor's Challenge, the government is going to be confronted by an uncertain future. The City is facing a dilemma with a difficult budget. All Department Directors are being requested to "amputate with a rusty saw". The City is "down to the bone". On the other hand, the City has an economic situation as to how far the public can be squeezed for taxes and fees. The public expects the government to demonstrate fiscal prudence and better efficiencies. We need to " focus on the necessary and eliminate what is nice". Councilman Dyer requested a Special Task Force be formulated, which would focus on process improvements and transformation. The City should focus on process improvement and transformation because obviously these factors would be utilized. The idea is to use this Task Force, not as a decision making body, but as a "resource " to provide information the City Council could use to make these types of decisions as we go forward. Councilman Dyer has spent the last couple of months addressing concerns and speaking with individuals in the business community. They expressed the mood that the business process can be improved. This City Council focuses on assisting the business community. The Federal and State Government are going to be reducing. Therefore, the City Council has to examine reducing the size and scope of Government but still deliver the critical services. Councilman Dyer requested meeting with the City Attorney, Mark Stiles to develop a draft. Councilman Dyer welcomed all comments from City Council, staff, citizens, business community and military. Strong civic engagement would be apart of this. April 26, 2011 -17 - CITY COUNCIL AGENDA REVIEW ITEM # 60820 2:27 P.M. BY CONSENSUS, the following items shall compose the CONSENT AGENDA: J.

Mayor Sessoms applauded SherriStolle who called yesterday and advised the Community Services Board will be reducing $121, 000 from their proposed budget in one of the Mental Health categories. Sherri Stolle has requested this funding be taken out of his Reserve Account. If the funds are being expended appropriately, the individuals would be kept out of the jail. The City Manager advised in speaking to Sherriff Stolle, this is a gracious and generous offer, and the City would reflect that. Sherriff Stolle's analysis was if five (5) of the 450 individuals are kept out of the jail, this would be a wise utilization of funds. One caution would be this would be an ongoing operating cost and, hopefully, he has a Reserve every year. However, it might have to be picked up by the City.

Proposed Issuance Water and Sewer Revenue Bonds $ 27,000,000 The following speakers registered to speak: George Bryant, 2320 Dodd Drive, Phone: 434-0825, resident of Wolfsnare Plantation for forty-three (43) years. Mr. Bryant spoke in Opposition to the increased rate of taxes and fees at a time when living standards continue to decrease. With the proposed increase in real estate tax rate, personal property tax rate, stormwater, surge and garbage fees, are all added together and applied to the assessed value of his home, the increase is 10.6%. Mike Barrett, Virginia Beach Visions, Phone: 499-7003, spoke re the need of public and private investment to build and sustain the City's tax base which keeps the City's tax rates the lowest in the region. The City has a fiduciary responsibility for leadership and management of this municipal corporation. This is City Council's primary role. Kenneth Jobe, 304 Croatan, Phone: 428-0328, President of Croatan Civic League, presented their position on the budget: more first responders, increased storm water services and, concerning water quality, maintaining and dredging Rudee Inlet, maintaining all of the City beaches and parks, reducing the backlog of street and utility maintenance. Improvements should include repaving Croatan streets. The highest quality of public education should be maintained. Mr. Jobe recommended deferral of any action on the Convention Center host hotel. Croatan Civic League is opposed to the increase in fees and real estate taxes, specifically the purchase of the 215 North Birdneck property in order to relocate the existing Lighthouse Center. Croatan Civic League supports and requests the funding in the traffic calming program. Cristy Flanagan, 2432 Smokehouse Road, Phone: 563-2794, spoke re the Southgate water and drainage canal. For the past three (3) years, the Canal has experienced deteriorating conditions. For several months of the year, it is completely covered by thick plant growth. At this point, there is not adequate water flowing through the canal. In heavy rainfalls, it quickly floods. It has been two (2) years since Southgate first brought this to the attention of the City. There is also a rat problem. April 26, 2011 -56 - Item V -H.1. PUBLIC HEARING ITEM # 60842 (Continued) Diane Jones, 721 Woodstock Road, Phone: 420-7876, Member of Virginia Beach Community Services Board and parent of an adult daughter with an intellectual disability as well as co-occurring mental health disorders. There has not been citizen opposition to City Council maintaining funding for programs and services for individuals with intellectual disabilities, substance abuse and mental health disorders. However, during the past several years, there has been more than 15% reduction in City dollars for Human Services; and, this year, the Department of Human Services was asked to submit a budget with a decrease in funding of another 6.6%. Continuing to reduce City dollars for Human Services jeopardizes the short and long term stabilization of the programs for these citizens who must depend upon the Cityfor their services. Mrs. Jones requested some of the funding for Human Services be restored Charles Goldman, 3730 Surry Road, Phone: 318-6611, retired Physician from the Sentara Medical Group. Dr. Goldman has been a member of the Community Services Board for a 1-'/z years. Services, as well as support for their families, are provided thousands of individuals i.e. serious mental illness, down syndrome, substance abuse and autism. These individuals did not choose to have these problems and should not be subjected to the perception of low expectations. These individuals can be treated, if the resources and programs are available to allow them to live meaningful and productive lives. Kay Ashby, 313 Pickerel Lane, Phone: 426-6635, President of the National Alliance on Mental Illness in Virginia Beach and Member of the Community Services Board. Ms. Ashby wished to speak specifically on the proposed Budget cuts of the Therapeutic and Medication Services of which 450 individuals will be impacted. Jimmy Frost, 2240 Wyndham Place, Phone: 343-6768, spoke re expensive projects, employee benefits and raising taxes Bob Kugler, 2084 Pierce Drive, Phone: 430-6228, Retired, advised this is the second year the employees are assisting paying retirement. Bernard Bew, 2480 Smokehouse Road, Phone: 580-8000, spoke re Stormwater drainage Dominic Melito, 4410 Segovia Court, Phone: 729-5672, President — Virginia Beach Education Association, requested the City Council support the School Board Budget as presented. Karen Mallard, 1748 Lapstone Court, Phone; 430-8605, Teacher — 3 Oaks Elementary School, Treasurer — Virginia Beach Education Association. Ms. Mallard requested the City Council support the School Board Budget as presented Trenace Riggs, 3608 Brannon Drive, Vice President — Virginia Beach Education Association and Teacher at Larkspur Middle School.. Ms. Riggs requested the City Council support the School Board Budget as presented. Carolyn McPherson, 2700 Royster Court, Phone: 377-1850, is proud of Virginia Beach and is a, homeowner in the Cityfor fifteen (15) years. The most difficult part of the budget process is to establish priorities. She applauded the City Council, as a team, to make the difficult decisions. A key component of the Resource Management Plan is not only the current operation and support, but also planning for the infrastructure of the future. Capital Projects involve vision and creativity to maximize results and minimize the cost. The future growth of the City requires this. Lake Gaston is a reliable source of water and Town Center is a viable and exciting part of the community. April 26, 2011 -57 - Item V -H.1. PUBLIC HEARING ITEM # 60842 (Continued) John McClain, 2501 Smokehouse Road, Phone: 403-7017, Member — Southgate Civic League and Chair of the Canal Committee is concerned about the deteriorating condition of the drainage canals and lakes within the community. He is concerned relative what had been accomplished with the Storm Water Management fee. Correspondence of John W. McClain is hereby made apart of the record. Stephen Wilcox, 2605 Wilkes Drive, Phone: 427-0291, recently the Editor of his local paper, applauded the City of Chesapeake for having the vision not to lower tax rates when property assessments are climbing. In the same column other cities such as Virginia Beach, were criticized for lowering property tax rates. Mr. Wilcox desires to do what has to be done to continue the fine services of the City. Mr. Wilcox has not had a pay raise in seven (7) years. Mr. Wilcox requested the Resource Management Plan be approved as proposed by the City Manager. John D. Moss, 4109 Richardson Road, represented the Virginia Beach Taxpayers Alliance, Phone: 363- 7745, and advised each of the fee increases, including the real estate tax increase, were advertised as a separate Public Hearing. Mr. Moss was not certain if consolidation of the individual Hearings into a single one complies with State Law. He is noting his objection. Mr. Moss referenced Page 19 of the City Manager's Resource Management Plan Executive Summary. The adjusted budget for this year is One Billion Seven Hundred Four Million ($1,704,000,000) and the Proposed Budget is One Billion Seven Hundred Thirty -Eight Million ($1,738,000,000). This is approximately a $35 -Million difference. Personnel costs and fringe benefits have increased $35.5 -Million. The discussion re taxes and fees has nothing to do with maintaining the current level of services. Nancy Craft, lifelong resident of Virginia Beach, expressed appreciation to the City Council for their hard work. Waverly Woods, 2453 Haversham Close, Phone: 749-8266, works in the private sector and pays 100% of her own house care, as well as 100% of her own benefits and retirement. Two proposals have been submitted one by the Virginia Beach Taxpayers Alliance and the other by The Tea Party. Both are detailed and both have valid points. Both depict where the Budget can be cut. Both depict how to save the tax paying citizens money. Neither of these proposals cost a dime to achieve. In fact, they were constructed without one consultant on payroll. The citizens should be protected from investments such as Light Rail. Andrew Jackson, 153 Upperville Road, Phone: 498-9198, supports funding to Schools. In the next eight (8) seconds, thirty-eight babies will be born, but cuts are still being considered in education funding. Many of today's college majors did not exist ten (10) years ago. Without the proper funding, what will the students study ten (10) years from now? More than 70% of United States four-year olds have used the computer today. " What will our youth do tomorrow, if we do not fund our education today? " Technical information is predicted to be doubled every 48 to 72 hours in the year 2012.

Effective July 1, 2011, localities may apply for up to $10 million per year in matching funds (the previous limit was $1 million per year). In anticipation of that effective date, VDOT has requested applications using the higher amount. In a previous version of this agenda item, the City had identified the Nimmo Parkway — Phase V-A project (CIP #2-121) as a candidate for this funding; however, since revenue sharing funding would have only reimbursed the City for local funds in the project and would not have advanced the project's schedule (construction is scheduled to begin this summer), that project was not approved by the State. As an alternative, the City has identified the Elbow Road Extended — Phase II project (CIP #2-152) for revenue sharing funding. The Elbow Road project was chosen because adding revenue sharing funds to available City funds would advance this project more than the other projects that had been eliminated from the Governor's Transportation Plan, and this project can meet the revenue sharing 2 -year construction requirement. The Elbow Road Extended — Phase II project is currently in VDOT's Six - Year Improvement Program and the City's Capital Improvement Program. The project will alleviate traffic congestion on North Landing Road, South Independence Boulevard and Lynnhaven Parkway. This project is scheduled to be advertised in FY 2017 and the total project cost estimate is approximately $55 million. ■ Considerations: The Revenue Sharing Program gives those localities that contribute a share equal to the matching requirement be given higher priority over other localities.

Adopted by the Council of the City of Virginia Beach on this 26th day of April, PERMEABLE PAVING SYSTEMS Permeable paving (also known as pervious or porous pavement) are surfaces that allow water to pass through voids in the paving material or between pavers while providing a stable, load-bearing surface. This allows stormwater to filter through the soil below the paved surface, reducing the numerous environmental issues associated with water runoff. Just as drinking water can be filtered to remove impurities, the soil particles filter rainwater percolating through soil on its way to surface waters and to groundwater aquifers. This important step in the natural process of water purification is bypassed when rainwater falls on impermeable pavement surfaces or roofs and is carried directly through storm drainage systems into waterways. Pollution carried in rainwater runoff is another concern, especially in urban areas. Stormwater flowing across streets, parking lots and sidewalks pick up contaminants associated with air pollution particles, spilled oil, detergents, solvents, dead leaves, pesticides, fertilizer, and bacteria from pet waste. Natural filtration of water through soil is the simplest way to control these pollutants, and is a direct advantage of permeable pavement. CONSIDERATIONS APPLICABILITY Permeable paving systems are appropriate for parking areas, parking lots, drive aisles, private alleys, sidewalks, courtyards and plazas. INSTALLATION Permeable paving systems must be designed and installed in accordance with the manufacturer's specifications. These specifications and details must be included with the site plan submittal to the Development Services Center. GRADING In order to optimize water infiltration through the permeable paving system, the slope of the surface area should range from 0.5 percent to 2 percent. SPACING When designing a permeable paving system utilizing Open Jointed and Open Cell Paving Blocks (pavers) as described below for parking spaces above the minimum number required, the permeable area shall have a minimum perviousness of 10 percent. If a permeable paving system is being designed for stormwater management purposes, additional criteria will need to be met in accordance with applicable City and State regulations. MAINTENANCE The overall maintenance goal for a permeable paving system is to prevent clogging of the void spaces within the surface material. The surface must not be sealed or repaved with non -porous materials if it is to continue to function and to be counted towards meeting the maximum allowed parking requirement. Sand and salt must not be applied to areas with porous pavements. Depending on the system, occasional sweeping or vacuuming of debris will be required to ensure the void spaces do not clog. Educational signage should be used wherever porous pavement is installed as a teaching tool for the public and as a reminder of maintenance obligations. LANDSCAPING The most important landscaping objective for porous pavements is to ensure that its drainage area is fully stabilized, thereby preventing sediment loads from clogging the pavement. ACCEPTABLE MATERIALS There are many options for permeable paving materials: porous concrete, pervious asphalt, open joined and open cell paving blocks. Examples provided herein are meant as a representation of products available, not an endorsement of a specific product or manufacturer. POROUS CONCRETE: There are a number of alternate names for porous concrete including permeable concrete, porous pavement, and pervious concrete. All of the names basically mean the same thing; porous concrete is a form of concrete which is permeable, rather than solid. Porous concrete is designed to trap water and allow it to percolate through the concrete to the ground below. Pervious concrete uses the same materials as conventional concrete, with the exceptions that the fine aggregate (sand) typically is eliminated entirely, creating a substantial void content. • Advantages: Used in place of conventional concrete decreases the total amount of runoff leaving a site, promotes infiltration of runoff into the ground, reduces the amount of pollutants carried to a storm drain or waterway, and aids with reducing peak runoff velocity and volume. Porous concrete is applicable to many light-duty uses, including overflow parking areas, residential street parking lanes, parking pads in parking lots, sidewalks, golf cart and bike paths, and emergency access lanes. With proper maintenance, including regular vacuuming of the surface to prevent clogging by sediment, porous concrete can have a minimum service life of 20 years. It also comes in a range of colors, and it can be made with recycled materials including recycled concrete rubble. This flexibility and potential for recycling makes it an ecologically friendly and aesthetically pleasing building material. • Disadvantages: Permeable paving is not ideal for high traffic/high speed areas because it has lower load-bearing capacity than conventional pavement. Nor should it be used on stormwater "hotspots" with high pollutant loads because stormwater cannot be pretreated prior to infiltration. PERVIOUS ASPHALT: A typical porous pavement has an open -graded surface over an underlying stone bed. The water drains through the porous asphalt and into the stone bed, then, slowly, infiltrates into the soil. If contaminants were on the surface at the time of the storm, they are swept along with the rainfall through the stone bed. From there they infiltrate into the sub -base so that they are subjected to the natural processes that cleanse water. Advantages: Porous asphalt used in place of traditional impervious paving materials decreases the total amount of runoff leaving a site, promotes infiltration of runoff into the ground, reduces the amount of pollutants carried to a storm drain or waterway, and aids with reducing peak runoff velocity and volume. It is appropriate for pedestrian -only areas and for very low-volume, low -speed areas such as overflow parking areas, residential driveways, alleys, and parking stalls. • Disadvantages: Permeable paving is not ideal for high traffic/high speed areas because it has lower load-bearing capacity than conventional pavement. Nor should it be used on stormwater "hotspots" with high pollutant loads because stormwater cannot be pretreated prior to infiltration. OPEN JOINTED AND OPEN CELL PAVING BLOCKS: These pavers are solid units of concrete, brick, plastic or stone laid side by side. They can bear traffic loads and are shaped to produce openings that are filled with porous aggregate or turf that allows for infiltration of stormwater. BLOCK PAVERS: This material can be used to create a porous surface with the aesthetic appeal of brick, stone, or other interlocking paving materials. They are most often used for driveways, entryways, walkways, or terraces. PLASTIC GRID SYSTEMS: High strength plastic grids (often made from recycled materials) are placed in roadway areas. Some are designed to be filled with gravel on top of an engineered aggregate material, while others are filled with a sand/soil mixture on top of an aggregate/topsoil mix that allow grass to be planted on the surface. Advantages: Paving blocks have a long useable life, are relatively easy to install and provide good infiltration. Most plastic paver material is flexible so it can adapt well to shrink/swell and freeze/thaw conditions. Most commercially available plastic paver material is made from recycled material, an added environmental plus. The grids provide a support structure for heavy vehicles, and prevent erosion. After heavy rains, the grids act as mini holding -ponds, and allow water to gradually absorb into the soil below. Disadvantages: Some pavers are sensitive to deformation in the base or sub -grade and do require a thick base to prevent "heaving." In cold climates where areas need to be plowed for ice or snow removal, blocks may catch and cause damage to the blocks and/or plow. BICYCLE PARKING Planning for alternative modes of transportation can reduce the use of the automobile to alleviate congestion, improve air quality, and contribute to a healthy and livable Virginia Beach. The 2009 Virginia Beach Master Transportation Plan focuses on the relationship between land use development and transportation needs. Bicycles as a mode of transportation require less space on streets, less room for parking, are emission -free, and promote a healthy and active lifestyle. Secure bicycle parking is a necessary part of a multi -modal transportation network that includes bikeways, trails, and public transit. Leaving a bicycle unattended even for short periods can result in damage or theft. Finding a bike rack that doesn't work or isn't conveniently located makes for a frustrating experience. The lack of a secure parking space keeps many people from using their bikes for transportation. The City Zoning Ordinance for Off -Street Parking Section 203b(12-14) now states that all development in the apartment, office or business districts requiring twenty five or more parking spaces shall have a minimum of five bicycle spaces. Each additional fifty parking spaces above the first twenty five shall require one additional bicycle space. Fifty percent of the required bicycle spaces shall be indoors or covered in accordance with the City of Virginia Beach Landscaping Guide, with the exception of parks and ball fields. The following information is to guide developers in selection and location for bicycle parking to fulfill this requirement. LONG-TERM VERSUS SHORT-TERM BICYCLE PARKING Bicycle parking can be divided into two categories: long-term (Type 1) and short-term (Type 2). Long-term parking is intended for use over several hours or overnight. It includes bicycle racks in an enclosed, covered, controlled access area. Short-term parking is intended for use from a few minutes to several hours. It includes bicycle racks in a public, easily accessible location that may or may not be covered. CRITERIA FOR GOOD BICYCLE PARKING Accessibility, Convenience, Safety and Security are necessary for a successful bicycle parking system. ACCESSIBILITY Bicycle parking will only be used if cyclists and their bikes can access it. Bike parking should be located at ground level or accessible from ground level (ramps, elevators) without obstacles like stairs or sleep slopes. When bicycle parking is not in a highly visible location, way -finding signage is recommended. Bicycle parking near sidewalks shall allow sufficient passage for pedestrians (6 feet) and comply with all ADA standards. Bike racks should not impede pedestrian traffic flow to board and egress mass transit vehicles. Bicycle parking and bikes should not obstruct the visibility triangle. To ensure adequate space for bikes and maneuverability in and out of the parking area, racks shall be placed at least 3 feet away from a wall or other vertical surface. CONVENIENCE Cyclists are most likely to use bicycle parking when it is close to their destination. Installing racks far from an entrance may encourage cyclists to lock their bike to a tree or piece of street furniture that is closer. Bicycle parking should be placed within 50 feet of the building entrance that cyclists use. Where there is more than one building on a site, or where a building has more than one main entrance, the parking shall be distributed to serve all buildings or main entrances. Wherever possible, situate bike racks close to bikeways and trails. SAFETY AND SECURITY Safety and security measures must be considered to encourage use of bicycle parking facilities. Racks and lockers should be made from high quality materials and firmly secured to the ground, floor, or wall of a well -lit area. Racks should be adequately anchored to discourage displacement or removal. Concrete is the preferred surface for maximum security, though other surfaces may also be appropriate. Short-term parking should be located in a busy, public area to increase informal surveillance, and long-term parking should be located in a separate access -controlled area. Adequate lighting must be installed for visibility at the bike parking site and any pathways to and from this area. ACCEPTABLE TYPES OF TRACKS Secure bicycle parking allows the frame and one wheel to be locked to the rack when both wheels are left on the bike. A simple inverted U -rack is attractive, easy to use, and highly secure. The rack should provide two-point support of the bicycle and have no sharp edges. The rack should be usable by bikes with no kickstand and by a wide variety of sizes and types of bicycles. Racks that only secure the front wheel are not acceptable. Left: Examples of acceptable two-point support designs. Graphic from Las Cruces Proposed Bicycle Parking Design Standards. Preferred materials: Galvanized steel with powder coating requires little maintenance and provides a smooth surface that will not scratch or damage bicycle frames Materials to avoid: Wood, soft metals, untreated metals, cast components that are brittle and may crack on impact. For rack designs that have welded sections avoid materials like stainless steel that have weak welds. BICYCLE PARKING DIMENSIONS Adequate space is necessary to accommodate bicycles and maneuvering in and out of the bike parking area. At least 30" is required and 36" is recommended between bike racks placed side-by-side, and 60" is recommended between racks placed end to end. One inverted U -Rack counts as two parking spaces. Three feet is the suggested distance between a planted area and the outermost edge of a bike rack. Left: A 10'x18' vehicular parking space can accommodate 6 inverted U -racks (12 bicycle parking spaces). Graphic from Las Cruces Proposed Bicycle Parking Design Standards. COVERED BICYCLE PARKING Prolonged exposure to precipitation can rust a bike's frame and components; Ultraviolet rays from the sun deteriorate a bike's soft seat and tires, as well as making the bike uncomfortable to ride on hot days. Covered bicycle parking will encourage use by cyclists who value their bicycle. Covered spaces can be stand- alone structures, roof overhangs, awnings, lockers, or bicycle storage spaces within buildings and parking garages. The cover must be permanent and secure. Overhead clearance should be at least 7' to allow for maneuverability. Covers that are too high do not protect from rain, sun, and snow. The covered structure must use similar construction materials as the main building and be aesthetically complimentary to surrounding architecture and design elements. If freestanding, the structure must be at least 150 square feet and comply with all local building codes including drainage regulations. Several companies sell prefabricated bicycle shelter structures that fulfill City requirements. BICYCLE LOCKERS Bicycle lockers are individual storage units that are weather protected, enclosed, and operated by a controlled access system that may use keys,'swipe card, or an electronic key pad located on the door. Cyclists can securely store their bike, helmet, and gear. Many models hold two bicycles, and have access doors at opposite ends of the locker. On average, one standard car parking space can accommodate five bicycle lockers, depending on the locker design. Stackable models can double bicycle parking capacity; however, the top lockers provide limited access to cyclists who cannot or choose not to lift their bike into the top locker unit. Bike lockers require a level, clean, surface and clearance for the door to easily open and close. Bike lockers are best placed away from sidewalks and areas with high pedestrian traffic. Like all bicycle parking, bike lockers should be placed close to building entrances, in a well -lit area with regular security surveillance. SUGGESTIONS Increase the use of your bike facility by incorporating non -required services and infrastructure into your bicycle parking system. Include a local bike map in the covered structure to encourage use and visibility. Integrate other environmentally - friendly elements like permeable paving into the bike parking design. Incorporate a bike station that includes maintenance, gear storage lockers, and concessions into your bike parking plan. Consider converting a parking space for one automobile to a parking space for multiple bicycles. Innovative bike parking ideas will be reviewed on a case-by-case basis. Left: A simple plaza rack like this one that does not require drilling provides secure parking for 6 bicycles without damaging expensive paving materials.
