ITEM # 35497
1:00 P.M.
Mayor Oberndorf recognized the following Members of the Virginia Beach City
School Board in attendance:
Samuel W. Meekins - Chairman
Cynthia M. Davenport
Gerald G. Gibbs
Dr. M. Boyd Jones - Vice Chairman
Edward G. Kreyling, Jr.
Martin J. Mulderrig, Jr. called and advised he was unable to attend the FY
1992-1993 Operating Budget Workshop.
E. Dean Block, Assistant City Manager for Economic Management, advised the
Parks and Recreation Department is impacted significantly by the reductions
proposed in this year's Budget. The number of Full Time Employees authorized
for the Department will decrease a total of 35 as a result of eliminating 23
and transferring 12 employees to other departments. This department will be
funded approximately 7% less than last year. At the same time, certain services
are being expanded within the Department. Landstown Elementary School will open
in the Fall of 1992. Therefore, this budget includes the resources necessary to
expand School Based Activity Centers to Landstown in order to continue to
provide service to all elementary schools. FY 1992-93 will be the first full
year of operation for the Virginia Beach Community Recreation Center - Bayside.
Funding for a full year of operation is included in this budget. The overall
program of the Kemspville Playhouse will be significantly reduced. The
Department proposes to increase fees to provide additional general fund
revenues, as well as to sustain School Based Activity Centers on a self-
supporting basis. Approximately 30% of the Department's budget is recovered
through fees. Susan D. Walston, Director - Department of Parks and Recreation,
advised the Bayside Recreation Center will open April 23, 1992, with the
ceremony scheduled for 11:00 A.M. The average cost per instructional class is
$2.00 per hour. The Department will reduce operating costs by closing the
community recreation centers at 5:00 P.M. on Saturday and Sunday instead of
8:00 P.M. on Saturdays and 6:00 P.M. on Sundays. Parks and Recreation have a
very popular program at the Recreation Centers, which is the Senior Adult
Walking Program in the early hours. This program has been impacted at Bow Creek
when full staff coverage was not available during the early hours. There are no
plans at this time to reconstruct or modify the theatre at Kempsville. It will
be useful for outside groups in addition to City functions. It will still be
available to supply the other cultural programs for youth. There are no plans
at this time to dispose of the extensive costume inventory. Only the adult
production season and the one-act plays have been eliminated. Information will
be provided relative the difference in figures between the Recreation Centers
at Great Neck and Bayside. Mrs. Walston advised the oceanfront life guard
service contract for the Summer was $196,000, with the amount being
substantially less for Sandbridge. Non residents are charged $75.00 per year
for a Recreation Facility Card. Concerning the Red Wing and Bow Creek Golf
Course, Position Summary, there will be changes based on City Council's
decisions concerning recommendations of the STAFF REVIEW COMMITTEE's evaluation
of the Public-Use Golf Course Committee Report. 38,000 cards were projected to
be purchased for Adult and Youth facilities. If there is a shift and
individuals purchase the card just for golf, this would impact the revenue and
some adjustments might have to be made. Additional positions will be needed for
the Southeastern Recreation Center to be opened in early 1994, consisting of
new employees plus existing City staff.
Information will be provided relative the public access stairs at Sandbridge.

FY 1992-1993 OPERATING BUDGET
ITEM # 35497 (Continued)
The Library Department is impacted in terms of a reduction in services. The
department will reduce its management team by eliminating a divisional
administrator. Without the position, the Department will have limited strategic
planning in the areas of collection development, cateloging data base
development, automated Inventory control and technology exchange with public
schools. The Department will eliminate 1.5 positions by decentralizing
coordination of the Summer Reading Club from the Director's Office to the area
libraries, reassigning volunteer coordination and discontinuing adult
programming and centralized support for children's programming. The Department
will reduce the number of book and audio visual volumes purchased by 24,912
Items. Two full time positions associated with the ordering and processing of
the materials will be eliminated. The number of items which will not be
purchased is equivalent to 990 shelves of books and other materials. The
Department w i I 1alter its bookmobile services and eliminate two permanent
positions. The primary focus of the bookmobile will shift from suburban
residents to preschool children and their parents in designated mat-risk"
neighborhoods. To obtain additional funding necessary to achieve 2.0 books per
capita and a materials budget of $7.50 per user, the Department will seek
private donations. The Department will work with the Friends of the Library and
other non-profit agencies to solicit donations for the purchase of library
books. Funding for the Library Department will be at 91.7% of the FY 1991-92
Adjusted Operating Budget. The total number ot positions will decrease by 6.5
Full Time Employees. Total reduction in the bookmobile funding is approximately
$67,000. Approximately $8,000 of this amount encompasses gas and garage
maintenance on the vehicle. Martha J. Sims, Library Administrator, advised the
mission of the bookmobile Is twofold: (1) Visit suburban neighborhoods and
provide service to those neighborhoods that are far away from fixed facilities
such as the General Booth Corridor and Sandbridge and (2) Take the bookmobile
services to neighborhoods where the characteristics of the neighborhood would
indicate they would not traditionally use library services (at-risk
neighborhoods). Within that context of cutting back time from 6 days a week to
4 days a week and the staff being reduced, libraries proposed reducing service
to the suburban neighborhoods where residents did have cars and the inclination
to utilize library services. The bookmobile is probably the highest circulating
in the State. Circulation per hour is equivalent to the Central Library on a
Sunday. Approximately 6,000 items per month are circulated on the bookmobile.
Circulation figures will be provided to City Council regarding the present
bookraobile system by "stop". The Service Area Population at Great Neck will be
provided. There are 172,000 registered library users. Mrs. Sims will verify the
17.7% Service Area Population Registered for Windsor Woods. Durlng
reconciliation of the Budget, it was suggested to consider restoring funding to
allow the bookmobile to function for 6 days, return the outreach service and
attempt to reduce the $67,000 by spreading among the more urbanized libraries.
To date, there are 68 new volunteers just for the Central Library and a master
shelving program has been initiated. Thus, making a dent in the backup of
shelvlng. Mrs. Sims advised even If the hours of the school libraries were
extended, this would not appear to reduce demand on the public library to any
significant extent as the school libraries were not large enough to support the
type of research assignments assigned to students.
The Planning Department is impacted significantly by a variety of
consolidations. The Department is organized Into six divisions: Director's
Office provides the overall leadership and administration for the department;
Comprehensive Planning administers a comprehensive planning program that
provides guidance for the long-range physical development of the City;
Development Services provides customer oriented management of plan review,
utility, right-of-way, moving and hauling permit Issuance, and surety
administration; Environmental Management monitors the efficiency and
effectiveness of city envlronmental activities, coordinates environmentally
related mates, and promotes environmental education; Operatlons prepares and
coordinates city staff review for development proposals requiring Planning
Commission or City Council action, and reviews subdivision and site plans; and,
Zoning Code Enforcement Interprets and ensures compliance with city zoning
ordinance and other sections ot the City Code related to land use.

FY 1992-1993 OPERATING BUDGET
ITEM # 35497 (Continued)
Development review activities have declined with the maturation of the City and
the current economic downturn. To address this decline, eight positions,
including two supervisory/management positions have been deleted in the
Planning Department, effective with this budget. One additional position was
deleted in FY 1991-92. Positions have been transferred within departmental
units to more efficiently address adjusted departmental workloads. Information
will be provided concerning the cost savings of these eight positions. Robert
J. Scott, Director of Planning, advised the increase in the Director's Office
from $656,299 to $804,000, is a reflection of the consolidation. Regarding the
positions shifted, cost for the positions shifted and the salaries of the
individuals assuming the positions, will be provided in a more understandable
format. Regarding the State Grant support for specific environmental monitoring
and planning projects, this grant will require a City match of $30,000 for a
total cost of $60,000 and the funds are not available to support this City
match. Information will be provided relative the funding and specifics of this
particular grant.
Concerning the Agriculture Department, the State is reorganizing extension
activities and has reduced resources for Extension Services in Virginia Beach
over the past several years. Extension Services has addressed this by
reductions is some services, and by identifying key programs of importance to
Virginia Beach which should be retained through shifts of existing resources
through possible increases in City support of some activities (such as the
Gypsy Moth Program). With shifts in development activities in the City, a
reorganization has been undertaken to streamline development review activities.
This reorganization includes a transfer of Envirortmental Management from
Natural Resources and Rural Services to the Planning Department. It also
includes a combining of the other activities of the Department of Natural
Resources and Rural Services within the Agriculture Department, An effort has
been made to move the Farmers' Market toward a self-supporting entity. Rental
and fee income is approaching 75% in relation to City appropriations. Louis E.
Cullipher, Director of Agriculture, advised approximately 70% of the products
sold in the Farmers' Market come from Virginia and 30% from North Carolina. One
(1) full time local farmer does have a stall in the Market. Approximately 65%
of the square footage is devoted to produce. As the purpose for which it was
originally created seems to be changing, information regarding the City plans
concerning the Farmers' Market will be provided. The VPI Extension Services is
receiving $487,000 from the State. $217,294 is appropriated by the City for
salaries.
Concerning the Economic Development Department, a measurable portion of the
returns to the City from its investments are evident from two industrial park
developments. In 1972, a total of 202 acres, assessed at $5,000 per acre, was
acquired to develop Airport Industrial Park. The total assessment at that time
was $1,000,000. Now, approximately 99% developed, the total assessment is
$93,928,604. In 1973, a total of 1,000 acres, assessed at $1,000 per acre, was
acquired to develop Oceana West Corporate Park. The total assessment at that
time was $1,000,000. Now, approximately 75% developed, the total assessment is
$306,114,883. This represents only the real estate valuation increases; there
may be even greater "spin-off" returns from other taxes. Mayor Oberndorf
referenced the correspondence from Congressman Pickett concerning funds of
approximately $1-BILLION available from the Federal Government to those
communities impacted by the downsizing of the United States Military. Mayor
Oberndorf was anxious for the formulation of a proposal to create jobs for
those individuals becoming unemployed. W. Andrew Burke, Director of Economic
Development, advised the preparation of this document is under away relative
the impacts of reduction in the military to the City and methods to utilize the
Federal funding. The completion of the International Parkway, relative the
widening of the bridge, impacts Oceana West Corporate Park; however, this has
not been a major issue. Mr. Burke advised a major part of the operation is
business retention and expansion of existing industries. In instances, where
businesses relocate from Virginia Beach, this is reported to the City Manager.
The computer operation of Beverly Enterprises will be moved to Fort Smith,
Arkansas, within the next eighteen months. This is a financial decision as
their corporate office is located in Arkansas. The Economic Development
Department is diligently working to fill the spot Beverly Enterprises is
vacating.

ITEM # 35497 (Continued)
Mr. Burke estimated approximately a 20-year supply of land was available to be
developed for economic development purposes that are not impacted by the Lake
Gaston situation. An additional $50,000 has been recommended for an expanded
advertising campaign, its goal being to promote Virginia Beach's business
oriented attitude and climate. Mr. Burke referenced Total Quality Management.
The particular issue involving difficulty in obtaining permits was identified
by Economic Development. An attempt to solve the permit process in Virginia
Beach is currently in process. Mr. Burke advised the Department is promoting a
pro business philosophy.
David M. Grochmal, Director - General Services, advised the Department is
considering the following services areas for reductions in the Building
Maintenance Division (1) custodial services reduced from 5 days per week to 3
days for all City buildings excluding recreation centers; (2) Reduction of
recreation center operating schedules from a 7 days per week to 5 days per week
(electrical savings $116,817); and, (3) Reduction of the operations of the
Parks and Recreation ball fields, tennis courts et cetera, from 7 days per
week to 4 days per week (electrical savings $29,531). The reduction in
custodial services will delete 14 Full Time Employees from the Division. This
reduction requires office personnel to clean their own desks and remove their
trash. The Building Maintenance Division had to make deferrals of certain
building improvements and repairs in order to meet fiscal restrictions. The
Landscape Services Division assessed the following alternatives in order to
formulate the budget: (1) elimination of the Clean Community Coordinator
position and (2) contracting the mowing and landscaping of the City's pump
stations. The Landscape Services Division had to implement both of these
options in order to finalize their budget. In the Clean Community budget
reduction, the Department is reducing the amount of the City contribution
(approximately $31,000), but will still be able to maintain the State grant of
$18,000. There are two programs which must be conducted to obtain the State
grant: (1) educational component and (2) community involvement component. Both
of these components will be accomplished with the State grant. Educational
efforts in the third grade elementary school classes and the Adopt-A-Street and
the Adopt-A-Spot Program will be continued utilizing volunteers; however,
funding their supplies will be through the State grant. Staff support will not
be provided to the Clean Community Commission's events i.e. "Earth Day". The
Adopt-A-Highway and Adopt-A-Beach will continue with the existing City staff.
Information will be provided concerning the Adopt-A-Waterways Program. The
Sheriff's work force utilized to pick up litter, is an extensive effort and has
supplemented the budget greatly. The contracting of pump station mowing and
maintenance results in the elimination of 10 Full Time Employees.
The Automotive Services Division sustained a 10% decrease in available funding.
In order to meet this reduction, the City Garage will eliminate 3 full time
employees and 3 temporary positions on July 1, 1992, as well as 3 more full
time permanent positions during FY 1992-93. In order to hold the increase of
electrical service to a minimum, the City will institute 70 and 78 degree
heating and cooling temperature restrictions in all City buildings. The use of
space heaters in offices will be eliminated. This will save approximately
$250,000.
Concerning the Landscape Services Administration, two positions are being
eliminated: a supervisor and a secretary. The review and inspection program
will now be centralized in the Planning Department. Approximately 80% of the
highway mileage for mowing is contracted. Mowing of highways in the rural areas
is handled by City staff. The frequency of rural mowing would be approximately
5 1/2 weeks with urban highways being 2 1/2 weeks. Concerning horticultural
operations and the providing of mulching and fertilization, the City Staff will
advise whether recyclable material is utilized from SPSA.

ITEM # 35497 (Continued)
Relative the Underground Storage Tank Program, funds in the amount of $93,548
are to provide administration to comply with State and federal legislation and
regulations. There is one full time and two contractual positions. The
Department has just brought on line one of the two contractual employees to go
through the extensive paperwork process to receive state reimbursement for the
City's clean up efforts. The Fire Department oversees tanks in the private
sector. A plan is being developed for the next CIP cycle to construct 5-7 major
consolidated fueling sites within the City. These will be underground tanks.
All other locations, which have to have fuel, will have small tanks above
ground, probably 1,000 to 2,000 gallons. The Department is also working with
the School Administration, who has a similar problem, to get all City and
School tanks out of the ground. The General Services Department has been
downsized 10% or 40 employees.
Under the Boards and Commissions section, the General Registrar's recommended
budget included 2.9 additional temporary positions to handle the increased
workload expected as a result of the presidential election. Per capita funding
for the Arts and Humanities Commission has been reduced from $.75 to $.50 per
capita. This will reduce audiences served. The Video Services Department is
retitled from Joint Cable and has been reorganized as one unit responsible for
all video production and programming of VBS 28 (public school system cable
channel) and MCN 29 (municipal cable channel). The Municipal Production Unit,
part of the Public Information Office, has been responsible for program
production on MCN 29. All of these units are combined into one program in the
budget recommendation. The savings to the City and to the Schools from this
consolidation will be approximately $135,000.
Concerning the Mass Transit Operation, information will be provided concerning
any pay increase expected for TRT employees.
The Non-Departmental section serves as an umbrella department for
appropriations which are city-wide in nature and, as such, are not contained in
an operational department. This section also provides for revenue rebates, such
as tax exemption for the elderly, as authorized by council ordinance. Community
Organization Incentive Grants provide funding to not-for-profit agencies which
provide necessary and useful services to residents of Virginia Beach at a level
of $.65 per capita. This will be approximately 13% reduction in total available
funds. Rational for the difference in the reduction of the particular programs
contained in the COIC was determined by a ranking process. It was determined no
agency would receive more than the previous budget and based on final rankings,
allocations were made. Information concerning the criteria utilized in this
ranking process will be provided, as well as how each particular agency scored.
Concern was expressed relative the reduction of $40,000 for Resource Mothers
and how this would impact their particular program. Information will be
provided relative the provision limiting the amount of the Community
Organization Incentive Grant funds that can be used for administrative costs.
An analysis will be provided concerning how the City of Virginia Beach compares
to other localities within the State relative this provision of funding on a
per capita basis. The Neptune Festival and the Life Saving Museum do not
appear to belong under Community Organization Incentive Grants division. It was
suggested these functions should become part of the Convention and Visitor
Development Budget. The City has been a co-sponsor of the Neptune Festival for
over twenty years.
The major item in Revenue Reimbursements has to do with the tax relief
primarily for the elderly. The tax base did not increase this year. Therefore,
the funding for those programs has remained constant. Given resource
limitations, it is recommended that reimbursement amounts be pro-rated based on
available resources, if total reimbursements would otherwise exceed budgeted
funds. In the area of Regional Participation, the major issue is a reduction of
5% in the contribution to the Medical College of Hampton Roads from $459,191 to
$436,231. Those funds have been shifted to the Health Department for
utilization in the Adult Medical Clinic. Concern was expressed relative
providing a funding match for the operation of Virginia Dare Soil and Water
Conservation District Commission as a funding match could not be provided for
specific environmental monitoring and planning projects.

Re: Request for Conffict of Interests Act Opinion
Dear Councilman Brazier:
I am writing in response to your request for an opinion as to whether you may
participate in the City Council discussion and vote on the FY92-93 proposed operating
budget for the City.
Summaa Co lu ion.
I am of the opinion that since the Conffict of Intrrests Act does not anticipate the
personal interests of a legislator-employee regarding the transactions before a public body,
you do not have a personal interest in the transaction as defined by the Act. Thus, you are
pemiitted to participate in this matter without restriction. Notwidistanding this conclusion,
I have previously advised you by letter of July 2, 1990, to forow the dictates of the Act in
cases in which you will realize a reasonably foreseeable direct or indirect benefit or
detriment.
The facts herein indicate diat it is reasonably foreseeable diat you may reabze a
@cial benefit or detriment, depending upon the decisions made by the Council widi
respect to the budget which includes, wnong odier provisions, provisions regarding merit
leave and a cost-of-living adjustrnent. Therefore, it is my advice that you fouow the dictates
of the Act. Based on the fact diat you are a member of a group which is affected by the
transaction, i.e., all City employees, the Act provides that you may participate in the
Councilman James W. Brazier, Jr. -2- April 14, 1992
Re: Request for Conffict of Interests Act Opinion
discussion and vote on the budget upon disclosure and a detemiination by you that you can
participate fairly, objectively, and in the public interest. For your inforniation I have
oudined the disclosure requirements of Section 2.1-639.14(G) should you desire to disclose
your relationship and vote; I have also set forth the applicable provisions for abstention set
forth in SS 2.1-639.14(E), should you choose not to vote.
I base the aforesaid conclusions on the fohowing facts which you have presented.
Please review and verify the accuracy of the facts as set forth as you may only rely upon diis
opinion if they are correct and complete.
Your request for an advisory op@on is generated by the City Council discussion and
vote on the City's proposed operating budget for FY92-93. The operating budget includes,
among odier provisions, provisions regarding merit leave and a cost-of-living adjustment.
You advise that your concem with respect to the wmsaction is that you are currendy
employed by the City of Virginia Beach as a pohce officer, eaming a @ in excess of
$10,000 and you are assigned to the Commonwealth Attomey's Office. You also are a
Council member of the City of Virginia Beach, ean-dng a sauq in excess of $10,000.
Are you precluded from participating in the City Council discussion and vote on the
proposed operating budget for FY92-93?
Dis
1. A12plicable Definifions of 42.1-639.2:
A. The City Council as the legislative branch of local govermnent is a
"govermnental agency" under the Act.
B. As an elected goverritnental official, you are an "officer" widiin the meaning
of the Act.
C. As an employee of the City, you are also an "employee" widiin the meaning of
the Act.
Councilman Jarnes W. Brazier, Jr. -3- April 14, 1992
Re: Request for Conflict of Interests Act Opinion
D. City Council's discussion and vote on the budget is a "transaction" as defined
by the Act. A "transaction" includes any matters considered by any govemmental agency
on which official action is taken or contemplated.
E. "Business" is defined as a corporation, partnership, sole proprietorship, firm,
enterprise, franchise or association, trust or foundation, or any other individual or entity
carrying on a business or profession, whether or not for profit. Neither the City nor the City
Council fafls wi@ the de@tion of a "business" under the Act.
F. "Personal interest" is defined as a financial benefit or liability which accnies
to an officer, employee, or to an inimediate family member. The interest exists by reason
of one of five categories specified dierein as: 1) ownership in a business if the ownership
interest exceeds 3 % of the total equity of the business 2) annual income from ownership in
real or personal property or a business in excess of $10,000.00 3) salary from the use of
property or paid by a bu ines that exceeds $10,000.00 annually 4) ownership of real or
personal property when the interest exceeds $10,000.00 in value, exclusive of ownership in
a business, or saluy 5) personal liability incuffed or assumed on behalf of a business which
exceeds 3 % of the asset value of the business. (Emphasis added).
G. A "personal interest in the transaction" exists when an officer or employee or
a member of his innnediate family has a personal interest in property or a usine or
represents any individual or business and such property, business or represented individual
(i) is the subject of the transaction or (ii) may realize a reasonably foreseeable direct or
indirect benefit or detriment as the result of the agency considering the transaction.
(Emphasis added).
H. Application of Definitions:
A. Personal Interest
Based upon my review of the facts presented, you do not have a "personal interest"
as defined above, because you do not receive a salary from a "business." Instead, your
salary is paid by the City of Virginia Beach which is classified under the Act as a
governinental agency.
B. Personal Interest in the Transaction
You do not have a "personal interest", as defined above, therefore you cannot have
a "personal interest in the transaction" under the definition of the Conflict of Interests Act.
Councilman James W. Brazier, Jr. -4- April 14, 1992
Re: Request for Conflict of Interests Act Opinion
III. Prohibitions and Disclosure Requiremen
Based on the conclusion that you have no personal interest in the Council's discussion
and vote on the budget, it is my opinion diat you are permitted to participate in discussions
of the City Council and vote on this item. As indicated in my letter to you dated July 2,
1990, the Conflict of Interests Act does not anticipate the personal interests of a legislator-
employee regarding @sactions before the public body. However, while you do not have
a personal interest as defined by the Act, I advised that you foflow the dictates of the Act in
cases where you personally will realize a fmancial benefit or detriment as an employee of
the City.
Council's discussion and vote on the proposed FY92-93 operating budget could
foreseeably result in a financial benefit or detriment to you since you are a City employee.
Thus, it is my advice diat you follow the dictates of the Act. Based on the fact diat you are
a member of a group which is affected by the transaction, i.e., aU City employees, the Act
provides that you may participate in the discussion and vote on the budget upon disclosure
and a determination by you that you can participate fairly, objectively, and in the public
interest. (See SS 2.1-639.11(A)(2)). In the altemative, you may choose to abstain from
voting and disclose any interest. Either of these may difftise any perception problems that
may arise. (See SS 2.1-639.14(E)).
Enclosed please find a written declaration fonn, should you decide to declare your
interest. This disclosure forrn is based on SS 2. i-639.14(G). This section provides that you
may eidier make this declaration orally, which is to be recorded in the written niinutes of the
City Council, or you may file a signed written declaration with the Clerk of City Council,
who shall retain and make this document available for public inspection for a period of five
years from the date of recording or receipt.
If you should desire to abs@ from voting, SS 2.1-639.14(E) provides diat in such
instances, the officer shau fordiwith make disclosure of the existence of his interest and his
disclosure shafl be reflected in the public records for five years.
The Conflict of Interests Act deals with the types of influences upon a public officer's
or employee's judgment which are clearly improper. The law cannot, however, protect
Councilman James W. Brazier, Jr. -5- April 14, 1992
Re: Request for Conffict of Interests Act Opinion
against all appearances of improper influence. In that respect the Act places the burden on
the individual officer to evaluate whether the facts presented would present an appearance
of impropriety which is unacceptable or which would affect the confidence of the public in
the officer's ability to be impartial.
Please contact me should you desire any additional information.
