I N F 0 R M A L A G E N D A ITEM #15838 The City Manager advised Council the Referendum on the Water and Sewer Bonds, and Road Bonds were approved overwhelmingly by the voters of Virginia Beach, which was an indication for the City to proceed with the construction of the wells. One water plant will be in operation by July of 1981, and all four (4) will be in operation by December 31, 1981. The City Manager further advised he has given authorization for the hiring of the Firm of Betz, Converse and Murdoch (specializers in hydraulics and geological surveys). They will associate themselves with the Firm of Converse, Ward, Davis and Dickson, who will work with site selection for the wells. The City Manager noted that no funds will be needed at the present time; however, when the designs are completed the City will need funds of approximately $10,500,000 in Referendum funds, which will be authorized for sale. 5- ITEM #15839 The City' Manager advised Council when the Referendum on Roads was approved by the voters of Virginia Beach it, too, was an indication to proceed as quickly as possible with the roads that had been placed on the Referendum. The City can proceed immediately with Virginia Beach Boulevard. In December, 1980, the City can advertise for the construction of Indian River Road; and, in January of 1981, advertise for Bonney Road. All rights-of-way acquisition was suspended on Kempsville Road and it will take approximately five (5) months to acquire all of the rights-of-way needed. As approximately $4,000,000 will be needed to "satisfy" the City's road construction, the City Manager advised he will be coming to Council requesting Bond Anticipation Notes in that amount based upon the anticipation of the sale of Referendum Bonds in April of 1981. The City Manager advised Council that the City sells its Bonds every December. There is a strong indication that the Prime Rate will conti-nue to rise until after the First of January, 1981, then begin to fall. The Bonding Attorneys are being asked to prepare the proper Bonding Authorization for the sale of Bonds; and, also the Bond Anticipation Notes in case the City's interest rates come in too high, which will give Council the option of selling or not selling the Bonds in December.
