Montgomery Jr. Chairman The Virginia Beach Mayor's Veterans Committee qumby173d(a�cox.net Dear Mr. Montgomery: On behalf of the City of Virginia Beach, I want to thank you, and your fellow citizens on the Mayors Veterans Committee, for your dedicated service. By overseeing the Tidewater Veterans Memorial and Memorial Park, and planning annual events there, you have ensured the sanctity of that space and provided our residents with a constant reminder of the sacrifices made by our men and women in uniform. We also appreciate your involvement in the discussions regarding the future of the Memorial and the Park and, particularly, how they might be impacted by construction of a proposed Arena, also on the south side of 19th Street. Your group and others provided valuable input at the community briefing on November 19 and again at a meeting with Deputy City Manager Douglas Smith, the arena developer and United States Management (USM), CEO Andrea Kilmer four days later. As a result of those interactions, let me assure you of the following: • The City of Virginia Beach affirms the language and spirit of a resolution passed by City Council in 1988, guaranteeing that the Tidewater Veterans Memorial and Park on 19th Street will remain intact and in their present location. • The City, ESG Companies and your committee recognize that certain enhancements may be necessary to preserve the structural integrity and enhance the aesthetic appearance of the Memorial and the Park. Any proposed changes, however, will be presented to and approved by your committee in advance. • The City will ensure that annual legacy events on Memorial and Veterans Days at the Memorial will take place during Arena construction with, if necessary, only minor amendments for staging and parking based on the status of that construction. Mr. Charles R. Montgomery, Jr. November 24, 2015 Page 2 In your role as Chair, I ask that you share these assurances with the entire committee and other other veterans' groups who also have a sincere interest in this issue. Moving forward, both the City and USM will work with your committee exclusively on the planning and approval process. As Stuart Myers reminded me in her letter on November 9, her late husband Billy, for whom the Park is dedicated, was determined that our veterans "not be forgotten." could not agree more, and that is why I give you my word, and that of the City, that the Memorial and the Park will never move from the place it so honorably occupies. Sincerely, William D. Sessoms, Jr. Mayor -7- PRESENTATIONS CITY COUNICL'S BRIEFING LIGHT RIAL ITEM#65441 4:02 P.M. Mayor Sessoms welcomed everyone in attendance and advised this presentation is as a result of Councilman Dyer referencing a Referendum on Light Rail a few months back and, at that time, Councilman Dyer suggested the City Council ask the Secretary of Transportation, HRT and etc.,provide Briefings regarding this project. City Manager Spore stated he wanted to take a few minutes and set the context of this discussion and Briefing from the Secretary today. This is one of the most important discussions City Council will have in a long time and an important point being the whole issue of public transportation and Light Rail in particular needs to be considered in a much larger context that is more comprehensive and, perhaps, more thoughtful than just talking about a 3.2 mile extension of the Tide from downtown Norfolk, Newtown Road to Town Center.

If the City ignores that connection, it is done so at the City's great peril. For example, in terms of the City's land use and transportation policy planning done over the years, 2%of the land area within the Strategic Growth Areas (SGA) is projected to have 50%of the growth moving forward in the City; and, as such, the SGA concept is critically important. The other area is the Special Economic Growth Areas, about 8%of the land, or 30%growth, moving forward and the Transition Area having 2%of the land or 20%of the growth moving forward: Fulfilling City Land Use =; and Transportation Planning Policy Strategic Growth Areas C.. 2%of Land Area=50%of growth 1, .

The City Council, as such, has adopted policy documents representing the Citizens'desire for the future of the City. Seven (7)of the eight(8)adopted SGAs,plus the Princess Anne ITA, are proposed to be served by public transportation, including Light Rail. As such, Public Transit is a key component of making the important areas of the City work: Fulfilling City Land Use Policy, Transportation Planning and Public Engagement These policy documents were developed after extensive public and stakeholder Involvement include^.a numerous formal "y " Planning Commission and City Council pubic hearings over the i• past 12 years.which culminated .d'.

One of the goals in the Vision 2040 is to create a connected community. City Manager Spore feels the City's future is at stake and the leaders should be very thoughtful about the process. The City did ask the State for help as this is a City of Virginia Beach project and not an HRT. Specifically, regarding assistance since the Federal Government has been absent from the `playing field"for some time and the State has stepped up in a big way to offer financial assistance in this project: Connected Community: Creating A More Comprehensive Ira,�'�� r•-• s‘ imaiat_tx ar VABEACHBIOO BIO CORRIDOR ,.yam, KEY • : _ J • .74=":::. �' City Manager Spore, with a great deal of pleasure, introduced the Secretary of Transportation—Aubrey Layne.
