However, due to the size of TowneBank and the volume of transactions it handles, TowneBank has an interest in numerous matters in which he is not personally involved and of which he does not have personal knowledge. In that regard, he is always concerned about the appearance of impropriety that might arise if he unknowingly participates in a matter before City Council in which TowneBank has an interest. Mayor Sessoms also has similar concerns with respect to Prudential Towne Realty, which is an affiliate of TowneBank. In order to ensure his compliance with both the letter and spirit of the State and Local Government Conflict of Interests Act (the `Act'), it is his practice to thoroughly review each Ciry Council agenda to identify any matters in which he might have an actual or potential conflict. If, during his review of an agenda, he identifies aniatter in which he has a"personal interest ", as defined by the Act, he will either abstain from voting, or file the appropriate disclosure letter with the City Clerk to be included in the official records of City Council. Mayor Sessoms' letter of MaYCh 24, 2009, is hereby made a part of the record. May 8, 2012 -12- Vice Mayor Jones DISCLOSED, for many years, he served on the Board of Directors of Resource Bank. Three (3) years ago, Fulton Financial Corporation ("Fulton Financial ) purchased Resource Bank. On March 31, 2007, Vice Mayor Jones retired from the Board of Directors. Although, he is no longer a Board Member, he owns stock in Fulton Financial and that stock ownership causes him to have a "personal interest" in Fulton Financial. However, due to the size of Fulton Financial and the volume of transactions it handles in any given year, Fulton Financial, or any of the banks that are owned by Fulton Financial, may have an interest in numerous matters in which Vice Mayor Jones has no personal knowledge. In order to ensure his compliance with both the letter and the spirit of the State and Local Government Conflict of Interests Act, it is his practice to thoroughly review the agenda for each meeting of City Council for the purpose of identifying any matters in which he might have an actual or potential conflict. If, during his review, he identifies any matters, Vice Mayor Jones will prepare and file the appYOpriate disclosure letter to be recorded in the official records of City Council. Vice Mayor Jones regularly makes this disclosure. Vice Mayor Jones' letter of April 10, 2007, is hereby made a part of the record. Council Lady Rosemary Wilson DISCLOSED her husband is a principal in the accounting firm of Dixon Hughes Goodman and is directly and indirectly involved in many of Dixon Hughes Goodman's transactions. However, due to the size of Dixon Hughes Goodman and the volume of transactions it handles in any given year, Dixon Hughes Goodman has an interest in numerous matters in which her husband is not personally involved and of which she does not have personal knowledge. In order to ensure her compliance with both the letter and the spirit of the State and Local Government Conflict of Interests Act, it is her pYactice to thoroughly review the agenda for each meeting of City Council for the purpose of identifying any matters in which she might have an actual or potential conflict. If, during her review she identifies any matters, she will prepare and file the appropriate disclosure letter to be recorded in the official records of Ciry Council. Council Lady Wilson regularly makes this disclosure. Council Lady Wilson 's letter of January 10, 2012, is hereby made a part of the record. Council Lady Rosemary Wilson DISCLOSED she is a Real Estate Agent affiliated with Prudential Decker Realty. Because of the nature of Real Estate Agent affiliation, the size of Prudential, and the volume of transactions it handles in any given year, Prudential has an interest in numerous matters in which she is not personally involved and of which she does not have personal knowledge. In order to ensure her compliance with both the letter and the spirit of the State and Local Government Conflict of Interests Act, it is her practice to thoroughly review the agenda for each meeting of Ciry Council for the purpose of identifying any matters in which she might have an actual or potential conflict. If, during her review she identifies any matters, she will prepare and file the appropriate disclosure letter to be recorded in the official records of Ciry Council.

Mr. Bryant also stated there is nothing wrong with having the lowest tax rate in the area as long as the City remains good. Richard Good, 877 Seahawk Circle, Phone: 427-6300, is President of Solar Ser-vices and pays a lot of taxes to the City. Mr. Good stated the increase is a rate increase and not a tax increase and he is in full support. The increase will lead to a pay raise for School Employees. Mr. Good's wife has taught in Virginia Beach for 28 years. If Educators continue to be undervalued the City is going to end up with an average School System. Dominic Melito - President of Virginia Beach Education Association, 4410 Segovia Court, Phone: 729- 5672. Mr. Melito spoke in SUPPORT of the Budget offered by the School Board. Mr. Melito requested the Revenue Sharing Formula be re-established, along with a lump-sum funding guaYanteed amount.

Ms. Riggs spoke in SUPPORT of the increase in the Real Estate Tax Rate. Ms. Riggs stated without appropriate funding the the Schools, the students will be the ones hurt as well as harm the City's stature, which, in turn, will hurt the City's reputation. Ms. Riggs requested Ciry Council Members vote in support of the School Board Budget. Kaitlyn Jensen, 520 Woodshire Way, Phone: 646-5277, stated she is a 5"' year teacher in Virginia Beach and only makes $1,000 more a year than when she began her career. The Schools cannot reduce the number of teachers by several hundred without hurting the students.

Dane Blythe, 2004 Oakleaf Lane; Phone: 537-1700, is the Chairman of Virginia Beach Taxpayers Alliance.

May 8, 2012 -16- Item -V-H.I PUBLIC HEARING ITEM #6I850(Continued) Nena Luca, 1661 Sweet Bay Lane, Phone: 467-0662 is OPPOSED to the Real Estate Tax Rate increase. Ms. Lucas stated the Ciry does not have a revenue problem but a spending problem. Out of control spending is what got the City in this situation. The Ciry is supposed to be stewards of the tar payer's money. The City would not have taken the Schools' reserve funds if Schools are important to the City. It appears the taxpayers must feed the appetite of City Council even with sufficient tax dollars flowing thru the City. Ms. Lucas encouraged City Council to consider the proposed Budget offered by Councilmen DeSteph and Moss. Jimmy Frost, 2240 Windom Place, Phone: 343-6768. Mr. Frost stated this is the 4`" straight year the City has gone through this type of Budget and encourages City Council Members to consider the proposed Budget offered by Councilmen DeSteph and Moss. Andrew Jackson, 153 Upperville Road, Phone: 472-0901, stated he fully supports the Schools but City Council has given "mis-information " to the Citizens. The Ciry took the reser-ve funds and told the School Board they could have some back as long as they went along with Ciry Council's request. The tax rate increase is just another attempt to "misinform " the Citizens. Public Safety, Schools and infi•astructure are most important part of the City. Mr. Jackson encourages City Council Members to consider the proposed budget offered by Councilmen DeSteph and Moss that requires no tax increase. Barbara Messner requested City Council stop funding the tourism industry as it does not put anything back into the Ciry. Ms. Messner expressed her disgust with the City Council.

Ms. Safferstein pointed out a few things not discussed tonight. The average home in Virginia Beach is 25 years old, which means a great deal of maintenance is needed to maintain. In 2000, assessments were $16.8-Billion, and in 2009, they tripled to $49-Billion, yet the City has not given back to the citizens. Ms. Safferstein agYees that teachers deserve pay raises but not at the cost of the Citizens. William Stephany, 404 Palets Road, Phone: 486-4828, reminded City Council 17 out of 19 speakers were in favor of Redistricting, yet the request was denied. Citizens are watching and will be heard in November's election. Carol Wright, 640 Bridgewater Arch, Phone: 473-9835, is OPPOSED to increase in the real estate tax rate. The City needs to look at spending. The citizens should not be the first place City Council looks to support their out-of-control spending. Leslie Jones, 1996 Blue Knob Road, Phone: 351-1520, is a 50 year resident of the City supports the proposed Budget offered by Councilmen DeSteph and Moss.

May 8, 2012 -17- Item -V-H.l PUBLIC HEARING ITEM #61850(Continued) Diane Howard, 1057 Debaca Court, Phone: 721-5128, stated homes are the Citizens' well. In past, equity from homes could be used to help educate children or make home repairs but that is no longer the case. The School Board has given pink slips to over 200 employees. Citizens are wondering how to afford the costs of living. Ms. Howard encourages City Council to support the proposed Budget offered by Councilmen DeSteph and Moss. Marleyne Castelluzzo, 5189 Strafford Chase Drive, Phone: 474-4346, is the Vice-Chairman for the Virginia Beach Taxpayers Alliance and is not in favor of an increase to the Real Estate Tax Rate. The City Manager claims the assessments have fallen over the years but in FY2000 Assessments were valued at $168-Billion. Ms. Castelluzzo would like to know where the money has gone. From FY2000 - FY2005, the Assessrnent grew $53-Million. The tax rate was finally reduced in 2005. From FY2005- 2009 residential assessments soared $48.9-Billion, which equates to a 190% increase from FY2000. Over the last few weeks, a few citizens have spoken in favor of the real estate tar increase but all of those individuals will benefit from the increase. Gordon Smith, 1740 Rally Road, Phone: 496-5846, resides in Great Neck. Mr. Smith stated if City Council has a plan that will not raise taxes and it is not implemented, it will appear to the Citizens that you are not paying attention after a long run of gi^eat success. Nancy Craft, 3112 New Bridge Road, Phone: 426-2019, expressed her happiness in living in the City and supports some very difficult decisions to be made by City Council Members.

Mr. Garcia does not begrudge the teachers and their need for a pay raise but does not feel this is the time for an increase in Real Estate Tax Rate. Mr. Garcia urged City Council to consider the proposed Budget offered by Councilmen DeSteph and Moss. Caleb Dobbs, 1100 Woodcock Lane, Phone: 620-6932, stated his wife is a teacher but she is not asking Ciry Council to raise Real Estate Taxes in order for her to receive a pay raise. There are ways to cut spending. Election time is just around the corner. The City's revenue comes from the citizens and the hard choice would be to cut some of the projects that City Council supports but are not needed. Waverly Woods, 2453 Haversham Close, Phone: 749-8266, stated the last thing the City needs is a job killing tax increase. The City Council should live within its means. 30% of all students aYe on free or reduced lunch. Ms. Woods stated that anyone that supports an increase to the real estate tcrx rate should be voted out as soon as possible. City Council is in a better position to reduce spending than citizens are to pay more taxes.

Ms. Young is in favor of School employees receiving a pay raise but not at the expense of the ci tizens. Warner Athey, 2161 Vista Circle, Phone: 715-8228, stated that Governor McDonnell has done an excellent job in balancing the State Budget. The Governor is the 4`" highest paid Governor in the Country but we have City employees that make more than the Governor. Mr. Athey is a business owner in the City and he is an unpaid maintenance man due to the property taxes. Please do not raise the tax rate. Chuck Smith, 5628 State Street, Phone: 435-3265, is in favor of the proposed Budget offered by Councilmen DeSteph and Moss. The City should reduce spending.

Councilman DeSteph shall ABSTAIN and Councilman Moss shall vote a VERBAL NAY on Item 3 ARP 3400 LAND OF PROMISE ROAD Councilman DeSteph stated his ABSENTION is every time the City Council considers an application under the Agriculture Reserve Program, as it increases the value of his agriculturalproperty in that area. Councilman Moss stated his NAY vote is consistent with other issues as this is a discretionary expense. The City is only forecast to grow by three tenths of 1% over the next five years and the money could be better spent on today's needs. Councilman Moss shall vote a VERBAL NAY on Item 4 Councilman Uhrin shall ABSTAIN on Item 4 AUTHORIZE Lease with Schooner Inn Councilman Moss stated his NAY vote is because he believes the City is not getting the money in accordance with the value of the land.

In FY2000, total assessments were valued at $20.8-Bllion and of that $168-Billion was residential homes. In FY2012, total assessrnents were valued at $50.4-Billion and of that $42.5-Billion were residential homes. The share of residential assessments in FY2000 was 80.7% and today it has risen to 84.3% the opposite direction. Citizens cannot afford any more taxes. Roger Dadiomoff, 3030 Sand Bend Road, stated this is a"theatre" because it is obvious to him that each Ciry Council Member has their mind made up. Mr. Dadiomoff has a daughter that is a Special Needs Teacher and his wife is a School Nurse. If the Citizens want change, then they have to make that change with Council Members. Ciry Council gives citizens $1-Dollar and takes away $S-Dollars. It is time to vote City Council Members out of office.

Twenfy-three p(aygrounds at elementary school sifes have been addressed thus far, and two more are scheduled for comp[etion this winfer. Phase il[ addresses 10 more elernenfary school playgrounds. New drainage systems, in addition to removal and replacement of playground base materials and engineered wood fiber, will help ensure that national safe#y standards are met while prolonging the 1'rfe expectancy of the foy structure. ADA accessible walkways are afso being installed with these renovations. • The existing playground at Cooke Elementary School was instailed in 1996. If is a challenge course design and is more suitable for older children and adufts. Renovating the play area and replacing the existing challenge course components with an age-appropriate playground toy will provide a safer, more valuabie, ADA accessible play experience for the younger s#udents. o Basketbalf stanchion refurbishment and replacements, mostly a# elementary schoo{s, have besn complete<i as needed each year to ensure that aging structures are structurally saund. However, due fo encapsulated lead paint; advancing rust concerns and metal failure, yearly upkeep is becoming increasingly chalfenging. Grounds Services/ Landscape Management is able fo fund a portion of the complete replacements; however, additionaf fund'ing is required to replace basketbafl stanchions and backstops in order fo remain compliant with safety standards. . As supported by an Existing Drainage Study perFormed by Kimley-Horn in 201 0, the sformwater managerrrent pond af Larkspur Middle School is highly eraded from wave action, and there are two flooding areas, one in thie east parking iot, and one at the main student entry sidewalk far the building. The recommendatiflns made by Kifnley-Horn included an estimate of $330,000 for design and construction to correcf fihese drainage issues. Reconstruction of #he pond. shorelines and estabtishment of better vegetafion will a[so help alleviate'an ongo'ing problem with geese at this site. • All vehicles and equipment listed have met mileage and service requi'rements established by the City's Fleet Management Division for replacement and are essential to our operafion. Funding -will. reduce repair costs, minimize downtime, and help to ensure effaetive service delivery. As noted previously, we are recommending thatfunding be utilized from the 613 Internal Servic.e Fund. In lieu of lnternal Service funding, the alternatives are either delaying these projec#s and replacements unti[ they can be funded through the normal budget process or that no funding at alf be provided to fund these projects. We fieel that these two alternatives, especially providing no funding, will result in deficiencies at. a number of school sites. 1Ne have also proposed some of the safety improvements previously in the budget process, but due to competing priorifies have been unable fo secure funding. We look forward to your favorable response. Please feel free to contact me should you need more information or clarification to evaluate these requests.

Sessoms, Jr. Mayor May 8, 2012 -55- PUBLIC DIALOGUE Chi•istine Ross, 5557 New Colony Drive. Ms. Ross stated she was a former resident of Mayfair Mews ApnYtment Complex. She was saddened, but not surprised, by the recent jet crash. While residing in the complex, the Navy Jets would fly just a few yards above the roof of her rented apartment. While this is a tragic event which just happened, there is an ongoing tragedy that is being ignored by the City and news media. One out of six Americans have died due to abortion which is causing significant economic, social and religious changes. The death toll of the abortion mills in our community is over 100 babies a week. Will Calano, 1728 Baltic Avenue. His condo is located right next to the TLC Canvash. Mr. Calano has requested help from lots of different agencies, Police Department, Planning, etc. The Carwash was there when he moved into his condo. The Carwash installed a blower that is literally 35 feet from his front door and goes off SO to 100 times a day. Mr. Calano is requesting some action regarding this noise issue. Jimmy Frost, 2240 Winden Place. Mr. Frost cofnplemented the Ciry for their work with the plane crash. His stepson got with the Police and is currently housed at the Norfolk City Jail and he uses Light Rail to visit his stepson. A lot has changed in nine (9) years. Mr. Frost talks to people on the train, talks to people about the train and they really like it. Put the Referendum before the voters. Everyone knows it is going to be expensive.
