The bond sale is composed of portions of the 2009 and 2010 Charter Bond Authorizations previously approved by Council on May 12, 2009 and May 11, 2010, respectively. The bond proceeds from the proposed sale will reimburse previous expenditures for those authorized CIP projects. Based on current market conditions, the City's Financial Advisors, Government Finance Associates ("GFA") and Public Resources Advisory Group ("PRAG"), have recommended that this sale take place on June 22, 2011. ■ Considerations: The new money sale represents the City's annual general obligation bond sale. The City's Bond Counsel has prepared the enclosed resolution authorizing the issuance and sale of the bonds. The bonds will be sold electronically by competitive bid, with the actions of the City Manager being conclusive; provided however, that the bonds shall have a true interest cost not to exceed 4.5%. The proposed bond structure for the new money takes into consideration the FY -12 debt service budget. ■ Public Information: Public information will be handled through the normal Council agenda process. The original Charter Bond Authorizations were part of the public information process of the City's Resource Management Plan (Budget/CIP). In addition, the Resolution authorizes the distribution of the Preliminary Official Statement for marketing purposes. Also, a Notice of Sale will be placed in The Bond Buyer, a daily newspaper for the tax-exempt bond market. ■ Alternatives: There are no practical alternative funding sources at this time.

If the City wishes to take such a credit, on or before the 70th day next preceding any such mandatory sinking fund redemption date, the City's Director of Finance may instruct the Registrar to apply a credit against the City's mandatory sinking fund redemption obligation for any Bonds of the applicable maturity that have been optionally redeemed or surrendered for cancellation by the City and have not been previously applied as a credit against any mandatory sinking fund redemption obligation for that maturity of the Bonds. Each Bond so previously optionally redeemed or surrendered shall be credited at 100% of the principal amount thereof against the principal amount of such maturity of the Bonds required to be redeemed on such mandatory sinking fund redemption date or dates for such maturity as may be selected by the Director of Finance. (c) Selection of Bonds for Redemption. If less than all of the Bonds are called for optional redemption, the maturities of the Bonds to be redeemed shall be selected by the City's Director of Finance in such manner as may be determined to be in the best interest of the City. If less than all of a particular maturity of the Bonds are called for redemption, the Bonds within such maturity to be redeemed shall be selected by the Securities Depository pursuant to its rules and procedures or, if the book -entry system is discontinued, shall be selected by the Registrar by lot in such manner as the Registrar in its discretion may determine In either case, (a) the portion of any Bond to be redeemed shall be in the principal amount of $5,000 or some integral multiple thereof and (b) in selecting Bonds for redemption, each Bond shall be considered as representing that number of Bonds that is obtained by dividing the principal amount of such Bond by $5,000.

APPROVED AS TO LEGAL SUFFICIENCY: Z --- City Attorney's Office CA11884 R-4 June 8, 2011 K CITY OF VIRGINIA BEACH AGENDA ITEM ITEM: A Resolution to Resume the Biennial Budget Process and to Make the Process a Rolling Biennial Budget MEETING DATE: June 14, 2011 ■ Background: The City adopted a biennial budget process in FY 2005-06 as a way to improve the planning and forecasting of resource management decisions before suspending that process as part of the FY 2010-11 Operating Budget. For these biennial budgets, the City developed the budget using a fixed two-year or "classic biennial budget" structure. Much debate surrounding the FY 2011-12 Operating Budget centered around its impacts on the FY 2012-13 budget year. A "rolling biennial budget" process is a two- year budget structure where the second year is always a planning year. Utilization of a rolling biennial budget allows for the adoption of the upcoming fiscal year budget while taking into consideration the following year's revenues and expenditures for planning purposes. ■ Considerations: It is common for governmental bodies to produce biennial budgets for short and long term financial planning. The City Council prides itself on making prudent financial decisions, taking into account present and projected economic indicators. This resolution would provide that the City will resume the preparation of its budget on a biennial, rather than an annual, basis, beginning with the FY 2012-13 budget process. Additionally, the process would be structured as a rolling biennial budget with the second year as a planning year. ■ Public Information: Public information will be provided through the normal Council agenda process. ■ Attachments: Resolution; Biennial Budget Process Graphic Requested by Councilmember Davis REQUESTED BY COUNCILMEMBER DAVIS 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 16 17 18 19 20 21 22 23 24 25 26 27 28 29 30 31 32 33 34 A RESOLUTION TO RESUME THE BIENNIAL BUDGET PROCESS AND TO MAKE THE PROCESS A ROLLING BIENNIAL BUDGET WHEREAS, it is common for governmental bodies to produce biennial budgets for short and long term financial planning; and WHEREAS, a biennial budget process may be structured as a "classic biennial budget," where the budget covers a fixed two-year period, or a "rolling biennial budget," where the two-year budget is undertaken each year and the second year is always a planning year; and WHEREAS, the City adopted a biennial budget process in FY 2005-06 as a way to improve the planning and forecasting of resource management decisions before suspending that process as part of the FY 2010-11 budget process; and WHEREAS, the biennial budget process previously utilized by the City was a classic biennial budget; and WHEREAS, much debate surrounding the City's 2011-12 budget centered around its impacts on the 2012-13 budget; and WHEREAS, the City Council prides itself on making prudent financial decisions, taking into account present and projected economic indicators; and WHEREAS, the City Council desires to resume the biennial budget process with the development of the budget utilizing a rolling biennial budget structure; NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED BY THE COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF VIRGINIA BEACH, VIRGINIA: That the City of Virginia Beach will resume the preparation of its budget on a biennial rather than an annual basis beginning with the FY 2012-13 budget, which will be structured as a rolling biennial budget.

The Benefits Executive Committee (BEC) is charged with making recommendations to the City Manager and the Superintendent of Schools on plan design and annual rates for the various plans offered. The BEC is comprised of members from the City Manager's Office; the Superintendent's Office; City and Schools Human Resource Departments; City Budget staff; City and School Finance Departments; and is staffed by the Director of the Consolidated Benefits Office. ■ Considerations: ■ There are roughly 14,900 City and School employees and retirees currently enrolled in the health insurance plans offered. ■ The BEC recently completed a request for proposal (RFP) process to solicit vendors to 1) administer a "self-insured" health insurance plan for both the City and School System or 2) offer a "fully -insured" health insurance plan to both groups of employees. Five vendors were contacted and only two submitted proposals. Of the two vendors, Optima's self-insured proposal was the least expensive for medical, pharmacy, and administrative costs. Switching to the other vendor would increase plan costs by $7.1 million under a self-insured strategy or by $2 million under a fully -insured strategy. Based on financials and a track record for improving the health status of employees, the RFP Committee awarded the contract to Optima. • There are three plan design changes mandated by federal health insurance reform. Those changes are: increased coverage for preventive care; coverage for participation in clinical trials; and enabling dependants to remain covered by the health plan up to the age of 26, regardless of other coverage. ■ The City/Schools have been making the annually required contribution to GASB45 through the Health Care Fund. This contribution in FY 2012 is estimated to be $8 million. Current projections including medical trends indicate that the Health Care Fund Balance is sufficient to cover the GASB45 payment in 2012 and to allow employee premium rates and the employer contribution to remain at 2011 levels for one more fiscal year. ■ Recommendation: Based on the concerns over the economy, there are no recommended changes to the Health Insurance Plan other than the federally mandated changes noted above. No increase is recommended for either premiums or employer contributions for Plan Year 2012. It is also recommended that the City and School System make the FY 2012 GASB45 required annual contribution through the Health Care fund. ■ Public Information: The City Council and School Board jointly received a public briefing on the Health Insurance Program on June 7, 2011. Public Information will also be provided through normal advertisement of the Council agenda. ■ Attachments: Resolution Recommended Action: Approval Submitting Department/Agency: Consolidated Benefits Office City Manager:-. 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 16 17 18 19 20 21 22 23 24 25 26 27 28 29 30 31 A RESOLUTION REGARDING THE CITY'S 2012 EMPLOYEE AND RETIREE HEALTH CARE INSURANCE PLANS WHEREAS, the next Health Care Plan year takes effect January 1, 2012; and WHEREAS, the Benefits Executive Committee has recommended some changes to the health care plan offerings and to the rates for plan year 2012. NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED BY THE COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF VIRGINIA BEACH, VIRGINIA THAT The City Manager, or his designee, is hereby authorized to work with the Consolidated Benefits Office to implement the Health Care Offerings to City employees as outlined below: a) Continue as a self-insured health plan due to the substantial savings and award Optima the contract for the next three years with four one year renewals. b) Maintain the 2011 premium rate structure, the current plan design and employer contribution level for plan year 2012. c) Implement the three plan design changes mandated by the federal health insurance reform. d) Use the balance of the Health Care Fund to absorb any cost increases not covered by the 2012 employee rates and employer contribution amount and to make the 2012 annually required contribution to GASB45.

Dey Elementary School Site in Excess of the City's Needs and Authorizing the City Manager to Reconvey Same to the School Board of the City of Virginia Beach (GPIN 1499-55-9393) MEETING DATE: June 14, 2011 ■ Background: In 1977, by Deed of Dedication recorded in Deed Book 1674, at page 471 (the "Deed"), the School Board of the City of Virginia Beach ("School Board") dedicated a 50'x 50'(2500 sq. ft. /.057 acre) parcel of land to the City of Virginia Beach (the "City"), to be used for a pump station (the "Property"). The School Board also dedicated a 15' utility easement, a 20' ingress easement and a 20' egress easement (the "Easements") to be used in association with the Property. The City is no longer using the Property as a pump station; therefore, the School Board requests that the City declare the Property and Easements to be in excess of its needs and reconvey the Property to the School Board and vacate the Easements. The Property would be incorporated back into the existing school site for improvements to the parking lot for John B. Dey Elementary School. The improvements would provide better traffic circulation for the school's front drop off area and will provide 11 additional on-site parking spaces. Virginia Code Section 22.1-125 requires title to all school property be vested in the School Board absent an agreement with the City to the contrary. Because the Property is located wholly within the John B. Dey Elementary School site, and because the School Board dedicated the Property and Easements to the City, the Property should be reconveyed to the School Board at no charge and the Easements should be vacated. ■ Considerations: The Department of Public Utilities has no objection to reconveying the Property to the School Board and vacating the Easements associated with the Property. ■ Public Information: Advertisement of Public Hearing in the Virginian -Pilot Beacon and advertisement of City Council Agenda. ■ Recommendations: Approve the request and authorize the City Manager to execute all necessary documents to reconvey the Property to the School Board, subject to the terms and conditions in the Summary of Terms attached to the Ordinance. ■ Attachments: Ordinance Summary of Terms Location Map Recommended Action: Approval Submitting Department/Agency: Public Works / Real Estate tx PA' A City Manager: � - bVL x E 2 ti co Z f � LL Q m N ~' O W ii o aw Amo z \ z CL U—) 0) p 0 J vi v O 4r F..H-LLO>o O �E5 =or N CL $ V OLT O W W � I}— a oo a J C7 a U U X 2 < W ~ = a w 0 LU F g M O � IAX THOMAS g15 OEY Od pb o 16 iild N a No z y a T Z o vi L } n -7 r THOMAS g15 OEY Od pb o 16 iild N a No z y a T Z o vi L } n 1 AN ORDINANCE DECLARING THE FORMER 2 PUMP STATION SITE WITHIN THE JOHN B.

VDACS has now determined that the City is eligible for additional funding, in the amount of $54,247.37, to utilize funding that has not been used by other localities. Subject to the approval of the City Council, the City Staff and VDACS have agreed upon the terms of the addendum ("Addendum A") to the 2009 Intergovernmental Agreement (IA) providing for the additional funding. Two items concerning this matter are on the City Council agenda. The first is a Resolution authorizing and directing the City Manager to execute Addendum A to the 2009 IA on behalf of the City. The other is the Ordinance to accept and appropriate the $54,247.37 for an enrolled easement. ■ Considerations: Intergovernmental Agreement: The IA provides that VDACS will reimburse the City for certain costs of acquiring ARP easements. Costs eligible for reimbursement include: (1) the costs of U.S. Treasury STRIPS bought by the City to fund the purchase of the easement; (2) the cost of one appraisal; (3) attorney's fees; (4) the costs of one survey; (5) title insurance fees; and (6) public notice costs. The IA also allows the City to be reimbursed for certain other costs that, under current practice, are not incurred by the City in the course of acquiring ARP easements. These include certain debt service on the financed portion of the purchase price of an ARP easement and portions of the purchase price of an ARP easement that the City will prepay. The IA also places a maximum amount on the reimbursement for any single ARP transaction. That amount, however, is unlikely to be exceeded, and it is thus anticipated that the City will be reimbursed in any single transaction for 100% of the costs listed above, up to the new maximum cumulative amount of $104,147.37. A Summary of Material Terms is included in the agenda package for this item. ■ Public Information: No special advertising is required. ■ Recommendations: Adoption of Resolution and Ordinance ■ Attachments: Ordinance, Resolution and Summary of Material Terms Recommended Action: Approval of the Ordinance and Resolution Submitting Department/Agency: Agriculture Department Dfz-� City Manage . k 1 A RESOLUTION AUTHORIZING AND DIRECTING THE 2 CITY MANAGER TO EXECUTE AN ADDENDUM TO THE 3 2009 INTERGOVERNMENTAL AGREEMENT BETWEEN 4 THE VIRGINIA DEPARTMENT OF AGRICULTURE AND 5 CONSUMER SERVICES AND THE CITY OF VIRGINIA 6 BEACH REGARDING THE PURCHASE OF 7 AGRICULTURAL RESERVE PROGRAM EASEMENTS 8 9 10 WHEREAS, the City of Virginia Beach (the "City") adopted the Agricultural Lands 11 Preservation Ordinance in May 1995, thereby establishing a comprehensive program 12 (the "Agricultural Reserve Program") for the preservation of agricultural lands within the 13 City; and 14 15 WHEREAS, since its inception of the Agricultural Reserve Program, 16 approximately 8,831 acres of land have been placed under easements restricting 17 development of the land to agricultural uses; and 18 19 WHEREAS, the General Assembly, by Chapter 879 of the 2008 Acts of 20 Assembly, appropriated $500,000 to the Virginia Department of Agriculture and 21 Consumer Services ("VDACS") for the continuation of a state fund to match local 22 governmental purchases of development rights program funds for the preservation of 23 working farms and forest lands; and 24 25 WHEREAS, Section 3.2-201 of the Code of Virginia authorizes VDACS' Office of 26 Farmland Preservation to develop methods and sources of revenue for allocating funds 27 to localities to purchase agricultural conservation easements; and 28 29 WHEREAS, VDACS determined that the City was eligible to receive contributions 30 of funds from VDACS in reimbursement for certain costs the City incurred in the course 31 of purchasing Agricultural Reserve Program easements; and 32 33 WHEREAS, City and VDACS entered into an agreement entitled 34 "INTERGOVERNMENTAL AGREEMENT Between Virginia Department of Agriculture 35 and Consumer Services and The City of Virginia Beach", dated January 28, 2009 ("2009 36 Agreement"), a true copy of which agreement is on file in the City Clerk's Office; and 37 38 WHEREAS, VDACS determined City is eligible to receive additional funding in 39 the amount of $54,247.37, applicable to the 2009 Agreement, making $104,147.37 the 40 total amount available for reimbursement of certain costs incurred by the City in the 41 course of purchasing ARP easements; and 42 43 WHEREAS, City and VDACS desire to enter into an addendum ("Addendum A") 44 to the 2009 Agreement to increase the funding available to the City pursuant to the 45 2009 Agreement; and 46 WHEREAS, a Summary of Material Terms of the 2009 Agreement and its 47 Addendum A is appended hereto; and 48 49 WHEREAS, the City Council finds that the terms of Addendum A are fair and 50 reasonable and would be of significant benefit to the City and its citizens by providing an 51 additional source of funds for the purchase of Agricultural Reserve Program easements. 52 53 NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED BY THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY 54 OF VIRGINIA BEACH: 55 56 That the City Manager is hereby authorized and directed to execute the aforesaid 57 Addendum A to the 2009 Agreement on behalf of the City and to take such measures 58 as are necessary or advisable to implement such agreement according to its terms. 59 60 BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED BY THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF 61 VIRGINIA BEACH: 62 63 That the City Council hereby expresses its appreciation to the Governor, the 64 General Assembly and the Virginia Department of Agriculture and Consumer Services 65 for their continued commitment to the preservation of agriculture within the 66 Commonwealth and the City. 67 68 Adopted by the Council of the City of Virginia Beach, Virginia on the day 69 of )2011. 70 71 72 73 Approved as to Content: Approved as to Legal Sufficiency: 74 75 76 77 78 Agriculture Department City Attorney's Office 79 80 81 CA -11726 82\\vbgov.com\DFS1Wpplications\CityLawProd\cycom32\Wpdocs\D001\P009\00022074.DOC 83 R-1 84 June 1, 2011 6 Intergovernmental Agreement between Virginia Department of Agriculture and Consumer Services and The City of Virginia Beach and Addendum A to the Intergovernmental Agreement Summary of Material Terms Parties: The City of Virginia Beach ("City") and the Virginia Department of Agriculture and Consumer Services ("VDACS").

The ten volunteer rescue squads in the City of Virginia Beach provide invaluable services to our community. The volunteer rescue squads own all the ambulances providing 911 emergency medical transportation services in the City of Virginia Beach. The volunteer rescue squads receive no direct tax funding for their operating costs to provide these services and do not charge their patients for the medical treatment and/or transportation rendered. The primary source of revenue for the volunteer rescue squads is through their individual squad fund drives, conducted annually. Depending on the availability of funds, the City provides some support costs for the volunteer rescue squads, such as providing standard equipment for the ambulances; physical facilities and spaces to house and support equipment and personnel; paying utility bills for buildings and facilities housing a rescue squad, including those owned by a rescue squad; providing or paying for property and liability insurance for any building, facility or real property used to operate the volunteer emergency medical transport service; providing or paying for fuel for ambulances, zone cars and other emergency service vehicles; providing or paying for insurance covering ambulances and other emergency service and support vehicles owned by the rescue squads; providing adequate staff and budget for volunteer EMS recruitment and retention programs; providing initial and continued training and education of volunteers; and providing shift supervision. Also, the City of Virginia Beach has historically provided short term, no interest loans to the volunteer rescue squads servicing our citizens. The majority of these loans have been to provide initial capital for the acquisition of replacement ambulances. The cost of a new ambulance is approximately $135,000, without consideration of the medical equipment, supplies or personnel. ■ Considerations: The attached letter from Kempsville Volunteer Rescue Squad has been received by the Department of Emergency Medical Services requesting a no interest loan in the amount of $60,000 payable in five equal annual payments of $12,000 each. The first payment would commence June 2012. The Kempsville Rescue Squad is requesting a loan for the remaining cost of the replacement ambulance, equipment and supplies after a $68,231 state Rescue Squad Assistance Fund Grant and $16,769 squad contribution are applied. ■ Public Information: Information will be disseminated through the regular Council agenda notification process. ■ Alternatives: The alternative to this request could include pursuit of a business loan from a private financial institution, which will be costlier and will cause the rescue squad to further delay purchase of the replacement ambulance. ■ Recommendations: The Department of Emergency Medical Services recommends approval of this loan request and ordinance. ■ Attachments: Ordinance, Loan Agreement, Promissory Note, Letter from Kempsville Rescue Squad Requesting a No Interest Loan Recommended Action: Approval Submitting Department/Agency: Department of Emergency Medical Services City Manage L4 . 1 AN ORDINANCE TO APPROPRIATE FUNDS TO PROVIDE 2 AN INTEREST-FREE LOAN TO THE KEMPSVILLE 3 VOLUNTEER RESCUE SQUAD, INC., FOR THE PURCHASE 4 OF A REPLACEMENT AMBULANCE 5 6 WHEREAS, the Kempsville Volunteer Rescue Squad has been awarded a Rescue 7 Squad Assistance Fund grant of $68,231 from the Virginia Department of Health Office of 8 Emergency Medical Services for the purchase of a replacement ambulance with estimated 9 cost of $135,000; and 10 11 WHEREAS, equipment and supplies will be required to outfit the replacement 12 ambulance totaling approximately $10,000; and 13 14 WHEREAS, the Kempsville Volunteer Rescue Squad will utilize approximately 15 $16,769 of fund drive funding toward the down -payment. 16 17 NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT ORDAINED BY THE COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF 18 VIRGINIA BEACH, VIRGINIA: 19 20 1.

Salmons, PW / RE Wgov com MUNICIPAL CENTER BUILDING 2 2405 COUitTHOUSE DPoVE VIRGINLA BEAACH, VA 23456-9035 SUBJECT: This is in response to Kathleen Hansen's request for Mr. Spore's inquiry concerning a pending agenda item to be heard by City Council on June 14,2011: Beach Garden Park — Kilbourne Court / Holly Road Improvements In order to construct the new bridge that goes over to the park area, the city will need the ordinance passed to condemn. There is a defunct corporation that owns the northeast corner of Kilbourne Court and the city is unable to located the property owners. The acquisition for this corner is $68 because it is low land. June 6, 2011 - I just talked to Mr. Inman. The condo association wants $17,000 and the appraisal was $5,069. Mr. Inman is on his way back from Richmond and said that he would send me a breakdown when he got back to his office. Keep in mind, when the appraiser spoke with the consulting engineer, the sign was not going to be impacted. Now the sign will be impacted. The perimeter of the sign is a brick base with a brick pillar on each side and the actual sign identifying the condominiums was damaged and is no longer there. I think there is some wiggle room with the negotiations but until I receive the breakdown not sure what that will be. June 7, 2011 — I sent an email to Mr. Inman requesting his counter offer. His counter offer was approximately $7,000 for landscaping and a sign and $10,000 for a Temporary Construction Easement. I will discuss this with Mr. Lawson in the morning for direction on this negotiation. I will continue to negotiate with Mr. Inman, who represents Holly Bend Condo Association even if the ordinance is passed to condemn unless an impasse is reached and agreeable terms can't be negotiated. -34 - Item V.13. a.

MEETING DATE: June 14, 2011 ■ Background: The Beach Garden Park — Kilbourne Court / Holly Road Improvements project (CIP 7-049) (the "Project") first appeared in the FY 2009-10 CIP. This Project is for drainage, roadway, and sidewalk improvements for Kilbourne Court and Holly Road. Severe tidal flooding in this area poses safety hazards for vehicles and pedestrians. The Project will replace culverts on Kilbourne Court with a prefabricated bridge. Holly Road will have an arch culvert. The Project includes removal and replacement of approximately 3,100 linear feet of pavement, and 450 linear feet of raised wooden walkway, and installation of new pavement, curb, gutter, and sidewalks. This item was deferred by Council from May 24, 2011. ■ Considerations: Beach Garden Park and the associated entrance road, Kilbourne Court, were built in early 1980's on the site of a sewage lagoon and landfill. The road and associated culverts are failing due to continuous settlement. In 2008, the park was completely renovated as part of the Virginia Beach Middle School project to provide students with access to outdoor sports facilities during reconstruction of that school, and to provide access from Ocean Walk and 30th Street. The park site area also includes a Public Utilities water tower that requires frequent safe access by staff and service vehicles for timely maintenance and management. In addition, one of the six sites that run the City-wide communications is located within the park site. The Department of Public Works is requesting that City Council grant the authority to acquire, by agreement or condemnation, all real property and temporary and/or permanent easements associated with the Project. Nine (9) parcels will be affected. The acquisition will be administered by the City of Virginia Beach, through the Public Works Office of Real Estate. The total project cost is estimated at $1,800,000: Funding for the Project was provided by a transfer of $900,000 from Witchduck Road — Phase I (CIP #2-931), with $450,000 from Virginia Beach Middle School Replacement (CIP #1-234) and $450,000 from a Water Utility project (CIP #5-011). ■ Public Information: Advertisement of Public Hearing on issue of condemnation published in The Virginian -Pilot, Beacon.

This state of facts was reported to the full RAC on June 2, 2011. No further action was recommended by the PDRC or the RAC. ■ Considerations: City Staff has reviewed the requested encroachments and has recommended approval of same, subject to certain conditions outlined in the Agreement. ■ Public Information: Advertisement of City Council Agenda ■ Alternatives: Approve the encroachments as presented, deny the encroachments, or add conditions as desired by Council.

BF�C o $ a CITY OF VIRGINIA BEACH AGENDA ITEM ITEM: An Ordinance to Appropriate Funds to the FY 2010-11 and the FY 2011- 12 Operating Budget of the Clerk of the Circuit Court to Provide Additional Funding for the Electronic Recording System Maintenance Contract MEETING DATE: June 14, 2011 ■ Background: In the past, the Clerk of the Circuit Court collected revenue from copying charges and used it to reimburse copying expenses with excess revenues remitted to the State. In July 2007, the General Assembly increased the reach of copying charges and reimbursable expenses by including electronic records. This change allows copying charges to be used to pay the maintenance contract of the Clerk's electronic recording system, which includes the Land Record System, and the Case Management System. ■ Considerations: The Clerk estimates that $75,000 is available in FY 2010-11 and another $75,000 in FY 2011-12, which can be used for the maintenance contract of the Clerk's electronic recording system. This will partially replace the drastic cuts made in the State's Technology Trust Fund, which reimburses costs associated with technology system maintenance costs of various Circuit Court Clerks' Offices throughout the State. Approval of the ordinance will provide additional funding, which will partially offset the State budget cuts in technology system maintenance. ■ Public Information: Public information will be handled through the normal Council agenda process. ■ Recommendations: Appropriate $75,000 to the Clerk of the Circuit Court's Operating Budget for both FY 2010-11 and FY 2011-12.

This grant will be active from January 1, 2011 through September 30, 2012. The grant provides $152,000 of federal funding and has no match requirement. The purpose of this funding is to maintain, repair, replace or upgrade purchases made with previous federal preparedness funds. The funding will be used to purchase equipment to replace outdated or obsolete items. Since these items were funded with grants, they were not on a replacement schedule, and would not be funded through the normal budget process. This equipment will assist the Police Department to prevent and respond to potential acts of terrorism. Examples of items to be replaced include a laptop for Special Investigations, portable sonar, electrical and other upgrades to a Special Operations vehicle, and security system replacement for the First Precinct. ■ Considerations: The City is not required to provide a match for this grant. ■ Public Information: Public information will be provided through the normal Council Agenda process. ■ Recommendations: It is recommended that Council accept and appropriate the grant award of $152,000. ■ Attachments: Ordinance Recommended Action: Approval of Ordinance Submitting Department/Agency: Police Department City Manager.

This phase of the project is complete. The Finance Department has requested that this project be closed in the City's financial system; however, it contains unspent funds supported by State Fire Programs grants that require expenditure. ■ Considerations: To permit consolidation of funding for infrastructure improvements at the Fire Training Center, the Fire Department is requesting that the remaining unspent State Fire Programs funds in CIP #3-118, Fire Training Center Improvements, totaling $126,230 be transferred to CIP 3-133, Fire Training Center Improvements, Phase III, which is the new phase of the project established in FY 2008- 09. ■ Public Information: Public information will be handled through the normal Council agenda process. ■ Recommendations: Approval of attached ordinance. ■ Attachments: Ordinance Recommended Action: Approval Submitting Department/Agek ncy: Fire Department City Manager.

APPROVED AS TO CONTENT: APPOROVED AS TO LEGAL SUFFICIENCY: Management Services r �r 's Office CA11882 R-1 May 19, 2011 tiny, o CITY OF VIRGINIA BEACH AGENDA ITEM ITEM: An Ordinance to Transfer Funds for the Leroy Drive Records Storage Facility Shelving Project MEETING DATE: June 14, 2011 ■ Background: On January 31, 2011, the City Manager approved a transfer of $98,889 within the Operating Budget of Public Libraries for the purpose of renovating one of the two buildings at the City's Leroy Drive Records Storage Facility. This transfer was reported to City Council on March 11, 2011. The remaining scope of work exceeds the initial estimate, so Council approval is required for the transfer of an additional $13,000. Renovations are underway at the two-story 7,500 square foot building. These renovations include additional shelving, a restroom, lighting and sprinkler system extension, new access door on the south side of the building and a new concrete driveway/loading area. The other storage I square foot building and has no room for ex the basement of the Court Support Building has no room for expansion. uilding on Leroy Drive is a one-story 4,200 )ansion. A third storage facility is located in and contains 2,824 square feet; however, it The records center facilities reached capacity 4 years ago. Shortage of shelving space at the records center necessitated contracting with an off-site storage facility (Iron Mountain) in order to maintain service delivery to our customers for the timely transfer and storage of boxes. At the end of FY 2010, the program had 7,343 boxes (or 8,811 cubic feet (c.f.)) stored off-site at an Iron Mountain storage facility. For the past five years, a net average of 501 boxes (or 601 c.f.) have been added annually (new boxes less purged boxes) to storage. This project adds a second level of storage in the existing facility and will provide space for an additional 4,230 boxes, which should meet storage needs for 8.4 years based on the annual net average. Additionally, the increased shelving should reduce use of off-site, commercial facilities. ■ Considerations: Preliminary cost estimates for the entire renovation project were $98,889. Proposals for the remaining scope of work exceeded the initial cost estimates by $13,000 bringing the total project cost to $111,889. Since the total transfer now exceeds $100,000, City Council approval is required. Available funding to complete this project has been identified within FY 2010-11 Operating Budget of Public Libraries (Records Management Budget Unit). ■ Public Information: Public information will be handled through the normal City Council agenda process. ■ Alternatives: The entire scope of work is essential to the legal and effective use of the records storage facility, however, if funding is not available, the following alternatives could be considered: 1. Cancel the existing requisition for the remaining work (restroom, lighting and sprinkler system extension, new access door on south side and new concrete driveway/loading area) and re -prioritize the remaining work. However, it may cost more in the long run to divide the job up into individual components. 2. Eliminate the installation of the new door and driveway/loading area. However, the new shelving and extension of the mezzanine were installed with an access panel in the guard rail on the second floor intended to be used by staff in case of emergency. A new warehouse ladder that reaches the second floor was included with the shelving for this purpose. In the case of an emergency event, staff could utilize the new door to exit the building versus having to go through the building to the existing door. Not having the access door will eliminate this emergency exit option. ■ Recommendations: The Public Library Department recommends that City Council approve the ordinance to transfer appropriations in the amount of $13,000. ■ Attachments: Ordinance.

The applicant also desires a Conditional Use Permit for an outdoor recreational facility, Water Park. This request is part of an overall plan to renovate and upgrade the existing park. LAND USE AND PLAN INFORMATION EXISTING LAND USE: Undeveloped site, adjacent to Ocean Breeze Water Park SURROUNDING LAND North: . Wooded land, Motor World, Ocean Breeze / P-1 Preservation, USE AND ZONING: B-2 Business, and A-12 Apartment Ocean Breeze Holdings, LLC Agenda Items 3 & 4 Page 1 South: . Seatack Elementary School, City Tennis facility / P-1 Preservation East: . Wooded land / P-1 Preservation West: . Wooded land / P-1 Preservation NATURAL RESOURCE AND The site is located within the Owl's Creek watershed. The site is heavily CULTURAL FEATURES: wooded. The submitted site development plan should identify the existing natural characteristics of the site that should be preserved, such as trees and groundcover. Healthy plant material within these areas should be preserved and integrated into an effective landscape design. Clearing in this area should be confined to the absolute minimum to accommodate the proposed facility. There are no cultural features associated with the site. COMPREHENSIVE PLAN: The Comprehensive Plan designates this property as being located in the Suburban Area and just south of Suburban Focus Area (SFA) North General Booth Boulevard, Site 4.5. Much of the Suburban Area comprises well-established neighborhood and commercial areas that define the land use character in the northern portion of the City and should remain that way into the foreseeable future. One of the characteristics of the Suburban Area that pertains to the surroundings of the subject site is the existence of various sized tracts of parkland or open space. The Plan's general and specific planning principles for the Suburban Area reinforce the suburban characteristics of commercial centers and other non-residential areas that make up part of the Suburban Area. This is accomplished by having all new development proposals either maintain or enhance the existing development through compatibility with surroundings, quality and attractiveness of site and buildings, and environmental responsibility. The subject site is located south of SFA North General Booth Boulevard, Site 4.5; a designation that provides compatible land use recommendations that highlight opportunities for reinforcing or enhancing the mix of residential, recreation and passive open spaces of this area. Included in these recommendations is the need to complete the Aquarium District Plan in order to provide guidance for development of a thematic center and to advance cultural, educational and economic opportunities within this district. This recommendation is being implemented through a planning process begun in 2010 to prepare the Virginia Aquarium and Owls Creek Area Plan. The subject site is included in the study area. Scheduled to be completed and adopted by City Council in the latter part of 2011, the purpose of this Plan is to encourage strategic development and establish this area as a southern anchor for the Resort Area. CITY SERVICES MASTER TRANSPORTATION PLAN (MTP) / CAPITAL IMPROVEMENT PROGRAM (CIP): Access to this site is from both South Birdneck Road and General Booth Boulevard. South Birdneck Road is a four -lane divided minor suburban arterial with a one hundred five foot (105) right-of- way width. The Master Transportation Plan (MTP) designates this roadway as a six -lane minor arterial with a Ocean Breeze Holdings, LLC Agenda Items 3 & 4 Page 2 one hundred thirty foot (130') right-of-way width. A major road widening project of Birdneck Road is in the final stages of completion to widen the roadway to the existing four lanes. No further CIP projects are currently planned. General Booth Boulevard is a divided four -lane major suburban arterial, with a right-of-way width of one hundred twenty-five feet (126), and is designated as a six -lane arterial with 165 -foot right-of-way width on the MTP. There are currently no capital improvement plan (CIP) projects scheduled for this portion of General Booth Boulevard.

PRINCESS ANNE DISTRICT. MEETING DATE: June 14, 2011 ■ Background: This is a request for a Conditional Use Permit to allow private horse riding lessons. The applicant has five horses and has been providing horseback riding lessons and tours of the site for the past eleven years to both groups and individuals participating in one-on- one sessions. In addition to providing lessons and tours, this facility has horses available for on-site hourly riding rental and the applicant would like to be able to provide small guided trail rides within the wooded area along the northern property line. No more than 20 people and 12 horses will be on the site at any one time. Lessons, tours, and other riding activities are scheduled anywhere between sunrise and sunset and there are no employees at this facility. Riding lessons have previously been conducted on this site. When applying for a new business license, the applicant found out that the previous license only allowed instructors to go to customers for training. No training was ever permitted at 3581 Muddy Creek Road. The owner indicates that she was previously unaware of this provision of her business license and now would like to obtain approval so she could continue training as she has done in previous years. ■ Considerations: The proposal for a horse riding academy (horse riding lessons) is in conformance with the planning objectives outlined in Chapter 6 of the Comprehensive Plan as the proposed facility is in keeping with the equestrian character of the existing area. The applicant's submitted plan also meets the requirement of the City Zoning Ordinance, which limits the number of horses to no more than three (3) riding animals for each acre of land within the site. The proposal, however, does not satisfy Section 241 of the Zoning Ordinance that requires all buildings housing animals and all corrals in which animals are kept or assembled in concentrated groups, be at least 100 feet from any property lines. Staff has investigated ways to redesign the site so that all regulations in the Zoning Ordinance are satisfied. Staff's investigation revealed that redesigning the site is not the best alternative. All structures on this site appear to be constructed with appropriate approvals. Within the Agriculture District a property owner can construct horse stalls, sheds, houses, and other accessories as close as 20 feet to the property line. The Use Easy Does It Riding Academy, Inc. Page 2 of 3 Permit for a riding academy, however, requires that the stalls be at least 100 feet away from the property line. Given the scale of this operation, staff does not find it necessary to have the applicant relocate structures that do not satisfy the 100 -foot minimum setback requirement. Staff also finds that the approximately 20 -foot by 140 -foot unpaved parking area is acceptable. Section 221(1) of the Zoning Ordinance gives City Council the ability to allow deficiencies of area or dimension, as is proposed, as long as those deficiencies are satisfactorily offset by attached conditions and that the proposed conditional use, together with the conditions attached, is compatible with the neighborhood in which it is to be located, both in terms of existing land uses and conditions and in terms of proposed land uses and uses permitted by right in the area. Overall, staff finds that allowing the proposed horse academy and boarding facility, as currently designed, does not negatively affect the adjacent properties because the horses are kept in areas, for the most part, that have a wooded buffer between the horse stalls or corrals and the adjacent property line. Most portions of the parking area are also screened by a wood line. This existing buffer satisfactorily offsets the proposed deficiencies and the conditions provided below limit the scale and intensity of the equestrian operation so that it does not have a negative impact on neighboring properties. Staff, therefore, recommends approval with the conditions provided below. There was no opposition to the request. ■ Recommendations: The Planning Commission placed this item on the Consent Agenda, passing a motion by a recorded vote of 10-0, to recommend approval of this request to the City Council with the following conditions: The site shall be in substantial conformance with the submitted marked -up survey entitled, "Physical Survey of: Lot 'C -A-2', Subdivision of Property of Noil II. Nicholson Et UX", by Harold C. Warren and signed on April 28, 1995. Existing buildings housing animals and corrals in which animals are kept or assembled in concentrated groups are not required to meet the 100 -foot setback. 2. No more than 12 horses and 15 individuals shall be on the premises at any one given time. 3. Hours of operation shall be from Monday through Sunday, 8:00 a.m. until dark, but not later than 8:00 p.m. 4. All lighting on the site shall be directed inward and shall not spillover onto adjoining properties. 5. No outside speakers or sound systems shall be permitted. Easy Does It Riding Academy, Inc. Page 3 of 3 6. The site is limited to horse boarding, riding lessons, and tours of the site. There shall be no horse shows, polo matches, or similar types of events. 7. These conditions shall remain in effect as long as the horse boarding facility is in operation. 8. The majority of the parking area may remain unpaved; however, the parking area shall satisfy all requirements of the Americans with Disabilities Act ■ Attachments: Staff Review and Disclosure Statements Minutes of Planning Commission Hearing Location Map Recommended Action: Staff recommends approval.

The applicant has five horses and has been providing horseback riding lessons and tours of the site for the past eleven years to both groups and individuals participating in one-on-one sessions. In addition to providing lessons and tours, this facility has horses available for on-site hourly riding rental and the applicant would like to be able to provide small guided trail rides within the wooded area along the northern property line. No more than 20 people and 12 horses will be on the site at any one time. Lessons, tours, and other riding activities are scheduled anywhere between sunrise and sunset and there are no employees at this facility. Riding lessons have previously been conducted on this site as the applicant was unaware of the requirement of a Use Permit. Due to the downturn in the economy, the owner was going to foreclose on the property and let her business license lapse but has since decided to continue her horseback riding business. When applying for a new business license, she found out that the previous license only allowed instructors to go to customers for training. No training was ever permitted at 3581 Muddy Creek Road. The owner indicates that she was previously unaware of this provision of her business license and now would like to obtain approval so she could continue training as she has done in previous years. EASY DOES IT RIDING ACADEMY, INC. Agenda Item 8 Page 1 The site is currently developed with a single-family dwelling centered on-site, a 10 -stall horse barn approximately 35 feet from the northern property line, and a two story existing pole barn currently used as a classroom and office with two stalls attached to the rear of the facility. The office and classrooms are located approximately 35 feet from the northern property line. A four -stall summer shed is approximately 45 feet from the northern property line, a two -stall hospital is approximately 20 feet from the southern property line, a tack house is approximately 75 feet west of the dwelling, and up to five defined horse riding areas are dispersed throughout the site. Parking is on the north side of the house just north of the existing driveway. There is an existing wood line that screens the majority of the parking area from the adjacent property. LAND USE AND PLAN INFORMATION EXISTING LAND USE: Rural residential with riding academy and office SURROUNDING LAND North: .

Farm land / AG -1 & AG -2 Agricultural Districts West: . Rural residential / AG -1 & AG -2 Agricultural Districts NATURAL RESOURCE AND The majority of the site is uncultivated land used for the care and CULTURAL FEATURES: keeping of horses. There is a wooded area along the western half of the northern property line. This site is also in an AE floodplain and has a 0.2 percent annual chance of flood hazard. COMPREHENSIVE PLAN: The Comprehensive Plan designates this site as being within the Rural Area. The Rural Area is located in the southern half of the City south of Indian River and Sandbridge Roads. It is characterized as low, flat land with wide floodplains and altered drainage with a presence of agricultural and rural related activities including traditional and specialty crop cultivation, tree farms, equestrian facilities, wetland banks, fish farms and other similar uses. It is an important objective to protect and sustain all our valuable environmental, scenic and agricultural resources against inappropriate activities and intense growth pressures (p. 5-1 to 5-4). CITY SERVICES MASTER TRANSPORTATION PLAN (MTP) / CAPITAL IMPROVEMENT PROGRAM (CIP): Muddy Creek Road is a two-lane rural highway with a variable (thirty to fifty foot) right-of-way width. There are currently no CIP projects planned for this portion of Muddy Creek Road. EASY DOES IT RIDING ACADEMY, INC.

WATER: City water is not available. Health Department approval is required for private wells. SEWER: City sanitary sewer is not available. Health Department approval is required for septic systems. EVALUATION AND RECOMMENDATION The proposal for a horse riding academy (horse riding lessons) is in conformance with the planning objectives outlined in Chapter 6 of the Comprehensive Plan as the proposed facility is in keeping with the equestrian character of the existing area. The applicant's submitted plan also meets the requirement of the City Zoning Ordinance, which limits the number of horses to no more than three (3) riding animals for each acre of land within the site. The proposal, however, does not satisfy Section 241 of the Zoning Ordinance that requires all buildings housing animals and all corrals in which animals are kept or assembled in concentrated groups, be at least 100 feet from any property lines. Staff has investigated ways to redesign the site so that all regulations in the Zoning Ordinance are satisfied. Staff's investigation revealed that redesigning the site is not the best alternative. All structures on this site appear to be constructed with appropriate approvals. Within the Agriculture District a property owner can construct horse stalls, sheds, houses, and other accessories as close as 20 feet to the property line. The Use Permit for a riding academy, however, requires that the stalls be at least 100 feet away from the property line. Following is a list of structures that do not satisfy the 100 -foot minimum setback for all buildings housing animals and all corrals with which animals are kept or assembled in concentrated groups. STRUCTURE DESCRIPTION CURRENT SETBACK REQUIRED SETBACK Four -stall horse summer shed 45 feet 100 feet Ten -stall horse barn 35 feet 100 feet Two -stall animal hospital 20 feet 100 feet Two -stall barn attached to the office & classrooms 35 feet 100 feet EASY DOES IT RIDING ACADEMY, INC. Agenda Item 8 Page 3 Given the scale of this operation, staff does not find it necessary to have the applicant relocate structures that do not satisfy the 100 -foot minimum setback requirement. Staff also finds that the approximately 20 - foot by 140 -foot unpaved parking area is acceptable. City Ordinances require that all parking surfaces be paved; however staff has no objection to waiving this requirement given that the unpaved area fits in with the character of the surrounding community. Section 221(1) of the Zoning Ordinance gives City Council the ability to allow deficiencies of area or dimension, as is proposed, as long as those deficiencies are satisfactorily offset by attached conditions and that the proposed conditional use, together with the conditions attached, is compatible with the neighborhood in which it is to be located, both in terms of existing land uses and conditions and in terms of proposed land uses and uses permitted by right in the area. Overall, staff finds that allowing the proposed horse academy and boarding facility, as currently designed, does not negatively affect the adjacent properties because the horses are kept in areas, for the most part, that have a wooded buffer between the horse stalls or corrals and the adjacent property line. Most portions of the parking area are also screened by a wood line. This existing buffer satisfactorily offsets the proposed deficiencies and the conditions provided below limit the scale and intensity of the equestrian operation so that it does not have a negative impact on neighboring properties. As of the date that this report was written, the City of Virginia Beach Planning Department has not received any complaints regarding this site. Staff, therefore, recommends approval with the conditions provided below. CONDITIONS 1.
