BOARD OF BUILDING CODE APPEALS
Electrical Division/New Construction Division/Plumbing and Mechanical Division
9:30 A.M.
ITEM # 33542
Robert Loher, Director of Permits and Inspections, introduced Frank I. Adkins -
Chairman - New Construction Division. Chairman Adkins advised there are five
(5) Members comprising the New Construction Division consisting of a State
Registered/Licensed Architect, State Registered Land Surveyor, State
Registered/Licensed Contractor, Building Supply Specialist and a Professional
Engineer. The Division is on an "as-called" type of Meeting Agenda and is
available to Mr. Loher's Office on relatively short notice.
If there is a disagreement between Permits and Inspections and a new contractor
relative interpretation, the New Construction Division acts as an arbitrator or
support. Basically in 90% of the cases, the Division is in complete agreement
with the interpretation of Permits and Inspection. Last year, the Division was
SCHEDULED for five cases; however, they actually heard only three. The other
two cases were absolved prior to the meeting. The majority of cases entail fire
protection.
In the site plan review process, there are many agencies involved. Once a
building permit is issued, the applicant is vested and has a right to build
under the Code in effect at the time of issuance of the permit. Any appeal from
the Building Official goes to the Local Board of Adjustments and an appeal from
this is presented before the State Board of Housing. Further appeals are
referred back to the Circuit Court of the original jurisdiction.
Mr. Loher advised the Electrical Division shall hear and decide appeals from
any order, ruling or decision of the Electrical Inspector. This Division has
not met within the past year. The Plumbing and Mechanical Division has met one
time this past year and shall hear and decide appeals from any order, ruling or
other decision of the Plumbing or Mechanical Inspector.
Mr. Loher cited an appeal involving the City declaring permits for apartments
were invalid, as the applicant had not activated them within a six months
period. The Local Board upheld the City's decision and this decision was
appealed to the State Board of Housing at which time the City Attorney's Office
developed a compromise in relation to the City Water fees. There have been some
direct Code violations which the City has taken directly to Court.

BOARD OF BUILDING CODE APPEALS
Building Maintenance Division
Maryann 1. Ustick, Director of Housing and Neighborhood Preservatlon
ITEM # 33543
Maryann 1. Ustick, Director of Housing and Neighborhood Preservation, advlsed
the Building Maintenance Division of the Building Board of Appeals has never
met. Prior to the adoption ot the Statewide Building Maintenance Code by the
City In October 1986, the City enforced its own Housing Code Ordinance
entitled the Minimum Houstng Code, which required that all cases of non
compl lance with the Code must go before the Housing Board of Appeals. Since the
City has adopted the Statewide Building Maintenance Code, however, appeals are
to be heard by the Board of Building Code Appeals - Building Maintenance
Division. The Building Maintenance Code does not require cases of non
compliance with the Code be heard before the Appeals Board prior to prosecution
In Court. The Board exists only to hear appeals where the property owner, on
his own vol ition, requests an appeal hearing by the Board and same has to be
within twenty days after he has been cited for a Code violation. The notice of
violation Informs the property owner of his right to apply to the Code offictal
for modification such as an extension in the amount of time needed to comply.
The Code requires al I requests for modif ications be submitted to Housing and
Neighborhood Preservation In writing. Reasonable requests for modifications
which do not endanger health or safety are routinely administratively granted.
The notice of violation also Informs the owner he may appeal a decision of the
Code Official to the Board of Building Code of Appeals/Building Maintenance
Division. There are four reasons cited In the State Code upon which an appeal
can be requested and based.
Since the Adoption of the Buildlng Maintenance Code in 1986, the property
owners have applied freely to the City's Housing Code Officials for extensions
or modifications to the Code in order to obtain compliance. These requests have
been granted when practical. However, some requests for modifications are
definitely denied, i.e, rental property cited for lack of heat or hot water.
The City is obviously not going to give an extension for something which would
endanger the health and safety of the occupants. All of the cases of
noncompliance have either been addressed administratively by routine
modifications or the City has proceeded in Court. There have been no appeals to
the Building Maintenance Division, therefore a Chairman or Vice Chalrman has
never been elected nor a meeting held. The current system, however, has worked
very well.
Alex Davis, Housing Code Administrator, advised there have been approximately
2,500 complaints under the Buliding Maintenance Code. Only approximately 3% of
these were prosecuted.
Mrs. Ustick advised the Unsafe Building Ordinance adopted by the City indicates
a building can be demolished by the City without permission of the property
owner after certain notification procedures are followed, if unsafe or
structurally unsound. This definition Is causing some problems. The City may be
limited by Its own code and many need to Investigate further a greater ability
to demolish same particularly, If same Is being used as a "crack house".
Housing and Neighborhood Preservation enforce the City's weed enforcement.
Temporary weed inspectors have been hired through a contractual agency as the
majority of these do not require Code enforcement. This al lowed the staff to
handle the regular complaints and systematic code enforcement of the housing
stock upon which the City needs to concentrate. The problem arising from weed
complaints entalls receiving a nice letter upon the Initial violation. In five
days, if the situation Is not corrected, the Individual receives a legal
letter. Prosecution follows, If the situation is not corrected within a certain
period of time. However, normally in a vacant house, If there Is no reply to
the two notices, a contractor is referred to cut the property within seven (7)
days. Usually within 21 days the property is cut.

SCHOOLS
10:00 A.M.
ITEM # 33544
Mr. Gregory Stillman, Chairman of the School Board, advised the School's
enrollment figures are approximately 70,400 students which is almost 800 above
the projections. An analysis will be provided relative the reason for this
occurrence One of the reasons appear to be the effect of the economy upon
private schools. The School Board and Administration hope to have Tallwood High
School operational by 1992 in order to effect the Middle School Conversion.
Information will be provided concerning cost of transporting students to a
proposed Stadium for Tallwood should same be located in another site. Specific
enrollment figures concerning the General Booth Corridor were requested. In
1994 there should be a shortfall of 480 students in Strawbridge, Ocean Lakes,
Red Mill and Princess Anne High Schools. Strawbridge will open next June.
A feasibility study relative 'year-round schools should be investigated and can
be performed in-house. Buena Vista is the only system in the State with 'year-
round schools and seems to be quite successful.
1992 will be a difficult year because of the disruptions evident in
neighborhoods by the boundary changes. It will be difficult to draw the
boundaries for Strawbridge School and develop an equitable solution. The
General Booth School Site has been acquired at a cost of $800,000.
The School Board will consider moving forward with CIP No. 1-027 Brandon Junior
High School Repiping of the Closed Loop System and CIP No. 1-032 Oil Fired
Broiler Replacements for the Center for Effective Learning
Additional student parking will be provided at Kellam next Summer.
Chairman Stillman requested all Members of City Council forward any further
inquiries to the Schools portion of the Capital Improvement Program.

ROADS/HIGHWAYS

ITEM # 33545
E. Dean Block, Assistant City Manager for Administration, with the utilization
of a map, displayed the development and growth of the City's roadway programs
over the past several years commencing with 1986-87. The "red" lines indicate
projects already completed. The "green" lines are projects currently under
construction and include the completion of the last leg of Virginia Beach
Boulevard, the North Hampton Boulevard Area and Dam Neck Road, which is the
most strategically important and creates an entirely new corridor across that
portion of the City. The "dark blue" lines indicate projects currently under
design. Two of most important in terms of financial issues are the Independence
III and IV Projects. Independence III currently being bid in anticipation of
acceptance and will probably be underway in December 1990 or January 1991.
These two projects alone represent an investment of approximately $60-MILLION.
Other roads under design include Ferrell Parkway, Phase V, London Bridge, and
the last portion of eight lanes of Princess Anne Road from Independence to
Landstown Road, which should be bid by January 1991. The "light blue"
represents future design projects within the first five years of the Capital
Improvement Program. The projects reflected on the map extend only through
1994-1995. There are a number of other road projects, which will continue and
be beyond the first five years. The CIP holds true to the basic idea of the
GREEN LINE as an "urban growth boundary". It was not considered to be
appropriate, as has been the case over the last several years, to plan
extensive new construction of urban type facilities.
Based on City Council's decision regarding Constitution Drive Flyover, the
staff has deleted funding for the project and reallocated State 6-year plan
funding to other projects, including most notably Ferrell Parkway Phase VI and
VII and Birdneck Road.
It was recommended Council consider rescinding the resolutions governing the
use of the $8-MILLION annual road bond allocation and $52-MILLION of such bonds
be programmed to help move projects ahead. $20-MILLION of the special roads
bonds could be utilized to accelerate the program of the Atlantic Avenue
Demonstration Project. This will, among other projects, advance the Salem Road
project and contribute to moving Independence III forward. State allocation
reimbursement will be utilized to provide for the Salem Road project and
adjustments have been made in pay-as-you-go allocation levels to accommodate
the bonds as they are issued. Included in the planning is the rescheduling of
the $30-MILLION November 1991, Road Referendum to November 1992. Tt was
believed all the projects from the 1986 Referendum should be well completed
prior to a second Referendum and that coordinating the Road Referendum with the
1992 Schools Referendum during a Presidential election would insure voter
interest and involvement. This roadway program can also be greatly enhanced in
financing by the addition of a $5.00 increase in the City's automobile decal
fee commencing in January 1992.

ITEM # 33547
Councilwoman Parker referenced an article in the VIRGINIAN-PILOT/LEDGER STAR on
Sunday, October 7, 1990, with reference to the ten (10) worse bridges in the
area.
ITEM # 33548
Councilwoman Parker referenced FIORTUNE 500 containing an article relative
Norfolk being the major City in the area with over I-MILLION population. The
City Manager advised correspondence had been forwarded to Fortune 500 relative
the City of Virginia Beach.
ITEM # 33549
Councilwoman Parker referenced correspondence from the City Manager relative
the de Witt Cottage. Councilwoman Parker expressed concern relative the
stringent restrictions which are deemed covenants running with the land. The
most significant restriction prohibits all future development and requires the
de Witt Cottage property be preserved as a historic site in perpetuity. BY
CONSENSUS, the City Manager shall close on the property of the de Witt Cottage
on October 10, 1990.
ITEM # 33550
Councilwoman Parker referenced the scHEDnING of a BRIEFING relative the powers
and duties of a HUMAN RIGHTS COMMISSION for the City Council Session of October
23, 1990. An estimate of cost will be reflected. An ordinance for the formation
of a HUMAN RIGHTS COMMISSION has been SCHEDULED for the City Council Session of
November 6, 1990. Councilwoman Parker advised Mr. Minns had commented there
were problems which had occurred. Councilman Lanteigne will be in Richmond next
Tuesday, October 16, 1990, and will confer with the Director of the State Human
Rights Commission. Councilwoman Parker requested information from the State
level as to how Virginia Beach has been reflected in this issue. Councilwoman
Parker also inquired if there are any problems with the City's Personnel
Grievance Board as denoted by Mr. Minns. The City Manager advised an extensive
survey with the City Attorney's Office had been conducted relative Human Rights
Commissions in other localities.
Mayor Oberndorf required further information relative the formation of the
HUMAN RIGHTS C"ISSION. Would the City be allowed to appoint Boards and
Commissions or would this Human Rights Commission decide the number of
individuals appointed and their representation? Would this Commission overrule
the Personnel Board or make it obsolete? Mayor Oberndorf needed advice relative
the type of financial commitment necessary for the appointment of said
Commission. Councilman Jones also expressed concern and requested an analysis
of the cost of this HUMAN RIGHTS COMMISSION. The brochure describes a major
bureaucracy. If so, this should be considered in context to the overall budget.
Councilwoman Parker requested information concerning grievances against banking
institutions by individuals who thought they were wrongly serviced in the area
of human rights.
ITEM # 33551
Councilman Clyburn advised representing Mayor Oberndorf on Saturday, October 6,
1990, at the Kellum Funeral Home Dedication Ceremony and Ribbon Cutting

Councilman Jones advised this morning, October 9, 1990, Mayor Oberndorf and
himself were being entertained royally by beautiful children at the celebration
of Kingston Elementary School receiving the U.S. Department of Education
National Exemplary Award.
ITEM # 33553
Councilman Heischober referenced the City Manager's Memorandum relative the
relocation of the Pendleton Child Service Center. The decision was made to
rent privately owned building space. Proposals ware received from two
developers. The rent would be $18.00 per square foot, full service. Councilman
Heischober advised space is being rented for $14.00 per square foot. The City
Manager advised the City had investigated the opportunities to utilize an
existing structure and attempt to adapt same for the facility. However, with
the cooking and specialized type of arrangements connected with the program,
this was extremely difficult. There was also an effort to attempt to move the
facility to the western part of the City because Pendleton Child Service Center
does serve significant portions of Chesapeake and Virginia Beach. Additional
information will be provided relative the relocation, as well as a list of all
the City's leased properties.
ITEM # 33554
Vice Mayor Fentress advised appropriate times for a Public Hearing of the
SCHOOL BOARD APPOINTMENTS would be at the first Council Session, December 6,
1990, with appointments SCHEDULED for the City Council Session of December 11
or 18.
ITEM # 33555
Councilwoman Parker advised there also were several PLANNING C"ISSION
expirations. It might be beneficial to appoint these members as early in
December as possible, so they might attend the regular meeting prior to their
actual serving on the PLANNING COMMISSION.
ITEM # 33556
Captain Brazier again requested the list of the consultants for the City.
ITEM # 33557
Councilman Lanteigne referenced correspondence to Art Collins, Executive
Director - Hampton Roads Planning District Commission,- discussing the Regional
Jail Study. As two localities had backed out, the City Manager advised he could
not request additional funds for this study. He recommended the original amount
of $164,000 be made available to the Hampton Roads Planning District Commission
for the Regional Jail Study, with no other funds forthcoming. The City Manager
also had serious concerns about the State's willingness and ability to fund 50%
of a large regional jail.
Councilman Brazier advised relative regionalization, there is a similar
situation concerning water. Norfolk does not want to be involved in a regional
issue concerning this as they have abundant water. Norfolk and Portsmouth do
need immense help with prisoners; however, Virginia Beach appears to be in
excellent shape. This issue of a regional jail should be included in a package
of regional negotiations for different projects.
Mayor Oberndorf confirmed with Council Lady McClanan, Chair, that the next
Hampton Roads Planning District Commission meeting is SCHEDULED for Wednesday,
October 17, 1990. A Resolution shall be DRAFTED for the City Council Session
of October 16, 1990. The City Manager will provide information relative
Councilman Brazier's inquiry concerning the State's reimbursement of an
additional amount for prisoners housed whose serving time remains over a year.
Information will also be provided relative possible locations of the regional
jail. The General Assembly has not yet passed the Bill allocating 50% of the
funding for the Regional Jail.

ITEM # 33558
Councilman Lanteigne referenced his correspondence distributed to Members of
City Council. Councilman Lanteigne was concerned about the process used in the
past to formulate the "wish list" for the General Assembly. Councilman
Lanteigne was concerned that this year's Legislative Session will be dominated
by such major issues as reapportionment and the State budget shortfall.
Councilman Lanteigne proposed the Council meet with their Members of the
General Assembly prior to the formulation of any list and solicit their input.
Mayor Oberndorf advised with the Dillon Rule there is a healthy strain between
the City and the State. The Chamber of Commerce also has a "wish list" and work
relative transportation and other issues with the Region and Members of the
General Assembly. The Mayors and Managers are meeting with strategic members of
the General Assembly and have been for a year to discuss pertinent issues.
Councilwoman McClanan advised the Legislative Proposals are "staff driven". The
larger areas around the State have met by this time of year with their Members
of the General Assembly and then meet with them again closer to the Session to
discuss the exact proposals.
Councilman Jones supported Councilman Lanteigne's proposal.
Mayor Oberndorf advised there are eighteen (18) localities comprising the
Virginia Municipal League which are meeting and forwarding issues to the
representative members of the General Assembly. The VML has attended the
session for the General Assembly's special Hampton Roads Caucus. There has not
been a lack of communication. Mayor Oberndorf referenced a Regional Meeting
with Northern Virginia and a group of Legislators in Richmond, entitled, the
Urban Crescent. Issues were formulated and they worked in conjunction with the
VML.
Councilwoman Parker requested the Council Members be advised of the General
Assembly Agenda.
Councilman Heischober advised reapportionment and budgetary concerns would be
the main items of the General Assembly. The Legislators should be advising the
City of the focus and we, in turn, advise them of the Council's concerns within
the City.
A letter shall be drafted to Members of the General Assembly to determine a
mutually agreeable date to confer relative Legislative Proposals.
Vice Mayor Fentress advised any items contained within the Legislative Package
should be agreed upon by a vote of 11-0 if the package is to be meaningful.
Mayor Oberndorf advised Senators Holland, Stallings, Delegate Croshaw and other
Members of the General Assembly have acknowledged the tremendous assistance of
the City Staff in research and bringing forth recommendations in the best
interest of the citizens.

Level.
Councilwoman McClanan advised the main issue was what additional reverlue
sources the State will provide to support the vote for pledge bonds.
Mayor Oberndorf advised Secretary Dwight Dalton spoke to the Virginia Municipal
League and explained the sources of revenue had not been chosen. Commissioner
Ray D. Pethtei - Virginia Department of Transportation, advised once the pledge
