Parke Retired Priest, Diocese of Richmond PLEDGE OF ALLEGIANCE TO THE FLAG OF THE UNITED STATES OF AMERICA Mayor Sessoms DISCLOSED he is retired from Towne Bank (which has a corporate office located at 297 Constitution Drive in Virginia Beach), and no longer has any involvement in Towne Bank's transactions. However, due to the size of TowneBank and the volume of transactions it handles, Towne Bank 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 Berkshire Hathaway Home Services Town Realty, which is an affiliate of Towne Bank. 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 City Council agenda to idents any matters in which he might have an actual or potential conflict. If during his review of an agenda, he identifies a matter 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 January 13, 2015, is hereby made a part of the record. April 21, 2015 -73- 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 appropriate 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 she is a Real Estate Agent affiliated with Berkshire Hathaway Home Services Town Realty ("Berkshire Hathaway"), which was formerly known as Prudential Towne Realty. Because of the nature of Real Estate Agent affiliation and the volume of transactions it handles in any given year, Berkshire Hathaway 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 City Council for the purpose of identi&ing 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 City Council.

Andrew Fine, 6810 Ocean Avenue, Phone: 897-8888, advised this was a grassroots effort to revitalize a long neglected, crime ridden part of the City. This effort was led by young people and received the attention of entrepreneurs to take a chance on what "might be" rather than "what was". The VIBE District will be a pedestrian friendly place of discovery. The effort, over time, will raise property values and reverse the neglect of the area. This District will provide a unique opportunity of collaboration with local Artists. Laura Harb, 320 19t1i Street, Phone: 428-5444, advised this is a success story of "home-grown" entrepreneurs.

In the event of a 330 decrease in the property's assessed value after the first year of any 331 rehabilitation exemption, the exemption shall be based on the difference in 332 taxes computed on the base value and the decreased assessed value of the 333 property.

I am making this disclosure regarding City Council's discussion and potential vote on an ordinance to establish the ViBe Creative District as an arts and cultural district and technology zone that would include incentives for qualifying businesses in the district. The ordinance has not been finalized, and no date has been selected for its possible inclusion on City Council's agenda for an upcoming meeting, but City Council may discuss the proposal at its retreat on February 5-6, 2015. 2. My mother has an ownership interest in Malbonland, LLC, which owns property located at 414 Virginia Beach Boulevard and at 422 Virginia Beach Boulevard (which is also known as 418 Virginia Beach Boulevard). She also has an ownership interest in Malbonland Trust, which owns property located at 408 18th Street (also known as 1716 Artie Avenue). All three properties may be located within the boundaries of the proposed ViBe Creative District. 3. The City Attorney's Office has advised me that Act provides that my mother's ownership of property within the ViBe Creative District would not cause me to have a personal interest in the City Council's discussion and vote on an ordinance that 1604 WEST HILLTOP EXEC CENTER#305,VIRGINIA BEACH,VIRGINIA 23451 I li Mrs. Ruth Hodges Fraser -2- February 5, 2015 creates the district, and that accordingly the Act provides that I may participate without restriction in Council's discussion of, and vote on, this issue. 4. The City Attorney also advised me that if, hypothetically, I owned the property,the Act would allow me to participate in City Council's discussion and vote on this issue as a member of a group owners of property located within the proposed ViBe Creative District—the members of which may be affected by the ordinance. 5. I have chosen to voluntarily disclose the above facts and declare that I am able to participate in the transaction fairly, objectively, and in the public interest. Accordingly, I respectfully request that you record this declaration in the official records of City Council. Thank you for your assistance and cooperation in this matter. Sincerely, M. Ben Davenport Councilmember MBD/RRI -80- Item -V-H.2 ORDINANCES ITEM#64771 Upon motion by Vice Mayor Jones, seconded by Councilman Dyer, City Council ADOPTED, BY CONSENT, Ordinance to AUTHORIZE the City Manager to EXECUTE a Lease with the Virginia Beach Community Development Corporation re use of land and residence at 1409 Old Virginia Beach Road Voting: 11-0 Council Members Voting Aye: M.

Added new catchline to the section; 370 371 2. Added new catchline to subsection(a); 372 373 3. Added language in subsection (j) (2) providing that communication towers 374 affixed to electric transmission line structures and building-mounted antennas not meeting 375 the applicable requirements of this section may be permitted as conditional uses if so 376 provided by the applicable zoning district use regulations; 377 378 4. Added a new subsection (k), providing that small wireless facilities and 379 temporary communication towers not meeting the applicable requirements of this section 380 may be permitted as conditional uses if so provided by the applicable zoning district use 381 regulations; and 382 383 5. Added a new subdivision (3) to subsection (a), providing that co-locations of 384 antenna arrays or other modifications to a communication tower or base station that 385 substantially changes, whether individually or cumulatively, the physical dimensions of such 386 tower or base station shall require a new or modified conditional use permit. While that has 387 been the standard practice of the City,recent federal regulations provide that co-locations or 388 modifications that do not substantially change the size of a tower or base station must be 389 approved administratively. Those regulations also set forth standards for determining 390 whether a co-location or modification substantially changes the physical dimensions of such 391 tower or base station and provide that the determination is to take into account the 392 cumulative changes to a tower or base station so as to preclude an operator from making 393 piecemeal modifications intended to avoid the necessity for discretionary approval such as 394 conditional use permit. 395 396 . . . . 10 i I i 397 398 ARTICLE 3.
