CITY MANAGER'S BRIEFING
LAKE TRASHMORE WATER QU~4LITY SAMPLING
ITEM #40O41
3:00 P.M.
John Herzke, City Engineer, advised the Staff was requested to commence water quality sampling at ~
Trashmore. This was begun in the Summer of 1994. Smith, Demer, Normann, was selected as consultants.
,4 copy of the Monitoring Program was distributed to City Council and is hereby made a part of the
record.
Wade Malhotra, Consultang advised Mount Trashmore Lake was closed for recreational purposes in
1991 due to high levels of Fecal Coliform bacteria. Eight locations were chosen around the Lake to
measure the levels of fecal coliform. Four locations were near Edwin Drive, three in the middle and one
near the ou(fall of the Lake. These locations were monitored every two weeks for a year from July 1994
to July 1995; thereby, capturing all the seasons and their affect on the fecal coliform. Parks and
Recreation and Public Works staff assisted in retrieving the samples. The lab analysis was performed by
the Hampton Roads Sanitation District Lab. The depth of the Lake varies from approximately two feet
around the shoreline to approximately eighty feet in the middle. The Lake holds about ll6-Million
Gallons of water. In all surface waters, the fecal coliform bacteria shall not exceed a geometric mean
of 200 fecal coliform bacteria per 100 ml of water for two or more samples over a 30-day period or a
fecal coliform bacteria level of 1000 per 100 mi. at any time.
The Fecal Coliform sampling results determined the levels were very low during certain periods (for one
full month in summer and winter). If the City desired same for recreational purposes, the Ixtke could have
been utilized. One of the reasons for the low levels was there was a drought from August to September
1994. Fecal Coliform bacteria does not thrive during winter months.
An analysis of Fecal Streptococcus (animal wastes) was performed The same correlation existed being
low in the summer and winter months. The majority of the time levels were low and this indicated the
Lake was performing its job as a storm water management facility. It is a pollution prevention, structural
facility.
Mr. Malhotra displayed a chart indicating the ratio of the Fecal Coliform and Fecal Streptococcus
sampling results.

LAKE TRASHMORE WATER QUALITY SAMPLING
ITEM 840041 (Continued)
Frank Scanlon, Environmental Health Manager, Virginia Department of Health, advised the Department
was requested to investigate the Lake. Samples were alarmingly high and Parks and Recreation were
notified, as the Department could not approve this site for body contact.
Dr. Suzanne Dandoy, Director of Health, advised, as indicated by the charts contained in the report, the
majority of the fecal coliform bacteria samplings overwhelmingly exceed the geometric mean of 20 fecal
coliform bacteria per 100 ml. of water. There is a potential for human disease if there is water contact
in ladre Trashmore.
Susan Walston, Director of Parks and Recreation, advised there was a 'fish kill" in the Lake and a water
sampling was taken to determine the cause.

CITY MANAGER'S BRIEFING
MOUNT TRASHMORE DISTRICT PARK RENOVATIONS
ITEM #40042
3:55 P.M.
Susan Walston, Director of Parks and Recreation, advised Mount Trashmore has been recognized
nationally in the field of solid waste management for the conversion of a landfill to a passive
recreational park. The concept for the park, conceived by Roland E. Dorer, was approved by City Council
in 1966. The Park was officially opened in July of 1973 and included the mountain lake, and soap box
derby traclc During the mid-seventies Parks and Recreation developed additional amenities for the parle
There had been no recent additional improvements to the Park until 1993 when Kid's Cove, a large
accessible playground with facilities for the physically challenged, was developed by a volunteer effort
led by the Virginia Beach Junior Women's Club. Mount Trashmore Park is the most visited park in the
City with over 800,000 visitors during 1995. This is three times the attendance of other City district parks.
Mount Trashmore is approximately 165 acres which includes lakes, picnic facilities, parking, restrooms
and other amenities:
Playgrounds including Kid's Cove (6)
Waterwise Gardens
Basketball Courts (1)
Restrooms (2)
Parking Spaces (743)
Skateboard Ramps (2)
Concession Stand (1)
Marina/Docks
Leisure Events Office (1)
Picnic Shelters (4)
Picnic Tables (9D
Bike/Trails (3.5 miles~1 mile paved)
Barry Frankenfield, Parks and Recreation Planner, cited Existing Conditions and Concerns:
Accessibility: Restrooms and trails/walks are in poor condition and do
not meet minimal aces requirements.
Environmental Concerns: Banks are eroded, and the water quality of the
Lake is poor.
Wildlife: WiMlife management is an issue.
Soap Box Derby Track: Track is no longer usevL
Special Events: Frequent special events have a need for a permanent
stage entertainment area.
Entrances: The entrances and access points to the park are unclear and
poorly marked.
Pedestrian Conflicts: There are numerous pedestrian/vehicular conflicts
and many trails and high use pedestrian areas are unpave~L
Trees/Shade: More shaded areas are needed for the amount of use and
special events.
Parking: The current amount of parking is sufficient for the park area
although some parking areas could be recognized and/or relocated to
minimize pedestrian conflicts.

program for the entire Park using native plantings, natural areas,
recycled material and minimal maintenance alternatives.
W'ddlife Management: Develop a wildlife management program working
with the Department of Game and Inland fisheries.
Stage/Entertainment Area: Develop a permanent stage/entertainment
area to take advantage of the amphitheater shape of the "Mountain ".
Improve Restrooms: Restroom improvements are designed for Kids Cove
and are to be constructed in the Spring of 1995. The remaining restrooms
need to be modified to meet ADA requirements and user demand (funding
is in place for these improvements).
Soap Box Derby Track/Skateboard Ramps: Fill and grade over existing
soap box derby track, review skate board ramp usage and placement.
Trails: Continue the development of asphalt paths linking major activity
areas throughout the Park (approximately one mile of trails has recently
been completed). Provide a trail system to the top of the "mountain".
Improve trail along VDOT property and work with other property owners
to allow easements for trail improvements. Link adjacent roadway
systems.
Signs/Orientation: Add kiosks and interpretive elements to provide better
orientation to the park, increase environmental awareness, and define
focal points. Add environmental interpretation elements to the existing
Information Center and throughout the Park.
Entrances/vehicular access: Improve vehicular entrance points and
minimize pedestrian conflicts, add a bus TRT drop off for public
transportation.
Trees/Nursery: Develop tree nursery and complete Backyard Habitat.
Provide additional tree planting throughout the Park.
Gardens/Exhibits: No additional gardens are recommended, completion
of a backyard habitat is recommended in conjunction with a tree nursery.
No mow and "meadow" areas are recommended.

Mrs. Phillips advised the adjusted School Operating Revenues is $354. Their sales tax is down.
The General Fund Appropriations of $490,546,282 differ from the estimated revenue of $467,265,695 by
$23,281,587, to be approved by City Council and appropriated from the General Fund Balance for the

Mrs. Phillips referenced the Exhibit citing the Comparison of Revenues, Expenditures and Encumbrances
through October 31 of Fiscal Years 1996, 1995 and 1994. Trends whether Favorable or Unfavorable are
citetL Exhibit ~4-1, ~4-2 and A-3 give greater detail on the major categories depicted in ~4. Even though
the City has received $4,000 more at this time than last year, the Sales Tax on a trend basis is down from
last year. $200,000 more than last year has been received from the Hotel Room tax; however, on a trend
basis, the City has received less. On an overall basis other taxes are at least at the point where they were
last year and on a dollar basis, they are greater. Personal Property and Business Licenses are the two
most difficult revenues to projecg as they are not due until the end of the year. These will have significant
impact on the bottom line.
Mrs. Phillips advised as of October Thirty-first, $193,685 as been received from the $1.00 Hotel Room
Tax (Hotel Room Tax - Flat Rate - page 3.2).
City Council requested Financial Statements be presented on a quarterly basis during the City Council

6. INDEMNIFICATION.
Grantee agrees to indemnify, defend and hold the City
harmless from and against all claims, demands, injuries, liability
or damage of whatsoever kind on account of, or arising from, the
grant of this Ordinance, the exercise by Grantee of the rights and
privileges granted by this Ordinance, or from the construction,
operation, improvement, relocation or repair of Grantee's
facilities, and in the event that a suit shall be brought against
the City, either independently or jointly with Grantee on account
thereof, Grantee, upon written notice from the City, shall defend
the City in any such suit at the cost of Grantee and, in the event
of a final judgment being obtained against the City, either
independently or jointly with Grantee, Grantee shall pay such
judgment, with all costs, and shall hold the City harmless
therefrom; but nothing set forth herein shall be construed to
render Grantee liable for the negligence of the City, its officers,
agents or employees, or of any other person or corporation.
7. SERVICE.
The rights and privileges herein set forth are granted
and conferred upon Grantee upon the express condition and
understanding that Grantee shall, at all times during the term of
the Franchise, furnish electric current, within the corporate
limits of the City, to the inhabitants, commercial and residential,
of the City. Such service shall be furnished at the rates, and in
accordance with the terms, conditions and standards, approved by
the State Corporation Commission or any other regulatory body
having jurisdiction. Grantee shall maintain its facilities in good
order throughout the term of this Ordinance.
8. FORFEITURE, TERMINATION AND EN~0~CEMENT.
(a) In the event Grantee fails to perform its
obligations under Section 7 herein, and such failure is not the
result of circumstances beyond the control of Grantee, and with
respect to which no other remedy is provided for in the Franchise,
the City Council may hold a public hearing no less than thirty (30)
days after the giving of written notice to Grantee. If the City

Council determines that such failure is of a continuing and
material nature, the City Clerk shall give written notice of such
determination to Grantee. Grantee shall thereafter have six (6)
months' time in which to remedy the conditions which were the
subject of the determination. In the event of Grantee's failure to
remedy such conditions, the City, acting through the City Council,
may declare this Ordinance terminated, and Grantee shall have no
further rights, privileges or authority hereunder; provided,
however, that such declaration of forfeiture shall be subject to
judicial review as provided by law, and provided further, that in
the event such failure cannot, despite the exercise of due
diligence, be remedied within a period of six (6) months, as
hereinabove provided, the City shall allow such additional period
of time as may be reasonably necessary for the remedying of such
failure.
(b) In addition to the remedy hereinabove provided, or
in lieu thereof, at the election of the City, the provisions of
this Ordinance may be enforced by mandamus, action at law, suit in
equity or any other lawful proceeding.
9. DAMAGE TO FACILITIES OF GRANTEE, ETC.
Should any person intentionally destroy or damage any of
the facilities of Grantee within the City or tamper with any
metering device incident to Grantee's facilities or otherwise
intentionally prevent such metering device from properly
registering, or illegally divert electric service so that it does
not pass through the metering device, the City shall cooperate in
any criminal prosecution or other legal action against such
individual; provided, however, that Grantee understands and
acknowledges that the City Attorney has no authority to prosecute
violations of the Virginia Code, and nothing in this Section shall
be construed to require such action.
10. pLANNING.
The City and Grantee agree to coordinate their activities
in those areas in which such coordination may prove beneficial.

parties take reasonable measure to inform the other of their
respective plans and exercise good faith in cooperating with each
other to the end that the reasonable expectations and benefits
accruing to each of the parties pursuant to this Ordinance not be
frustrated or diminished by inadequate communication.
11. ENVIRONMENTAL/AESTHETIC.
(a) Any construction, extension or relocation of
Grantee's facilities shall reasonably minimize adverse impacts on
the environment and shall be designed and located in such manner as
to minimize adverse aesthetic impacts.

The City and Grantee shall cooperate fully in developing
and implementing programs designed to promote the efficient and
economical use of electricity, including, without limitation,
programs providing financial incentives for the acquisition of
energy-efficient fixtures and other devices.
13. WAIVER.
Neither party shall be excused from complying with any of
the provisions of this Ordinance by reason of any failure or
omission of the other, or any of its officers, employees or agents,
upon any one or more occasions, to insist upon or seek compliance
with any of the provisions of this Ordinance.
14. CONTINUATION OF SERVICE.

the services provided for in this Ordinance until such time as the
City notifies Grantee, in writing, of the resolution of the
disposition of such system.

if any one or more of its provisions are adjudicated or declared to
be void or unenforceable by a court of competent jurisdiction or by
any regulatory agency having jurisdiction, the remaining provisions
of this Ordinance not affected by such adjudication or declaration
shall remain in full force and effect and their validity shall
remain unimpaired.

to the Grantee's specifications the conduits, ductways, manholes,
handholes and appliances necessary to facilitate the undergrounding
of the Grantee's existing overhead facilities, the Grantee shall,
as long as the Grantee remains the exclusive provider of
electricity within the City, at its sole expense relocate such
portions of its existing overhead facilities underground. The City
will obtain or cause to be obtained, without charge to the Grantee,
suitable public or private easements as may be required by the
Grantee for its relocated facilities. The extent of undergrounding
that shall be required of the Grantee annually shall not exceed

the event that notwithstanding this Ordinance the City becomes,
directly or indirectly, a provider or supplier of electricity to
itself or to another person or entity, the City shall pay to the

Dear Mrs. Smith:
Re: Disclosure Pursuant to Section 2.1-639.14(G), Code of Virginia
Pursuant to the Virginia Conflict of Interests Act, Section 2.1-639.14(G), Code of
Virginia, I make the following declaration:
.
The transaction for which I am executing this written disclosure is the
Council's discussion and vote on the applications of Creeds Ruritan Club for
conditional change of zoning district classification from AG-1 and AG-2 to O-
2, and for a conditional use permit
.
The nature of my personal interest is that I am a member of Creeds Ruritan
Club. However, I do not receive any salary or other compensation from
Creeds Ruritan Club, do not have an ownership interest in the organization,
and do not incur or assume any personal liability on behalf of the organization.
In fact, I pay Creeds Ruritan Club membership dues in the amount of sixty
dollars per year.
w
Although the City Attorney has advised me that this interest does not meet the
criteria of a personal interest in the transaction under the Conflict of Interests
Act, I wish to disclose this interest and declare that I am able to participate in
the transaction fairly, objectively, and in the public interest.

Re: Conflict of Interests Opinion
Dear Councilman Baum:
I am writing in response to your request for an opinion regarding your ability to
participate in City Council's discussion and vote on the applications of Creeds Ruritan Club
for conditional change of zoning district classification from AG-1 and AG-2 to 0-2, and for
a conditional use permit. The applications are scheduled for the November 28, 1995,
meeting of the Council.
.SUMMARY CONCLUSION
From my review of the State and Local Government Conflict of Interests Act (the
"Act") and the information provided by you as referenced below, I am of the opinion that
you do not have a personal interest in the applications of Creeds Ruritan Club for conditional
change of zoning district classification from AG-1 and AG-2 to 0-2, and for a conditional
use permit. Thus, you would be permitted to participate in Council's discussion and vote
on the applications without restriction. For your information, I have outlined the disclosure
requirements of § 2.1-639.14(G) of the Act should you desire to disclose your relationship
and participate. I have also outlined the applicable provisions for abstention set forth in §
2.1-639.14(E) of the Act should you choose not to participate.
Councilman lohn A. Baum

November 28, 1995
Re: Conflict of Inm, ests Opinion
from the use of property or paid by a business that exceeds $10,000.00 annually; 4)
ownership of real or personal propex~ when the interest exceeds $10,000.00 in value,
exclusive of ownership in a business, or salary; and 5) personal l/ability incurred or assumed
on behalf of a business which ex~ 3 % of the asset value of the business.
E. A "personal interest in the transaction" exists when an officer or employee or
a member of his /mrnediate family has a personal interest in prope~ or a business or
represents any individual or business and such property, business or represented individual
(i) is the subject of the Wansaction or (ii) may realize a reasonably foreseeable direct or
indirect benefit or detriment as the result of the agency considering the transaction.
II. Appli~tion of D0finifions
A. Personal Interest
A personal interest exists by reason of one of five specified categories, as noted above
in the definition of 'personal interest'. Specifically, my review of those categories and the
facts presented indicate that with respect to Creeds Ruritan Club, you do not receive any
salary or other compensation from the organization, do not have any ownership interest in
the organization, and do not incur or assume any personal liability on behalf of the
organization. Therefore, I conclude that you do not have a personal interest in Creeds
Ruritan Club as defined by the Act.
B. P~rsonal Interest in the Transaction
You do not have a "personal interest" as defined above; therefore, you cannot have
a "personal interest in the transaction" as defined in the Act.
m. Disclosure Requirement~
Based on the fact that you do not have a personal interest in the applications of Creeds
Ruritan Club for conditional change of zoning district classification from AG-1 and AG-2
to 0-2, and for a conditional use permit, you are not restricted in voting as to the
applications. Nevertheless, if you are concerned that your participation in Council's
discussion and vote on the applications may create some appearance of impropriety because
of your position, there are two options available to you which may diffuse any perception
problems that may arise:
Councilman lohn A. Baum
Re: Conflict of Interests Opinion
November 28, 1995
Xe
You may either disclose the facts as presented herein and proce~ to vote as
to the applications; or
2. You may abstain from voting and disclose any interest.
Should you decide to declare your interest and vote, a proposed disclosure letter
which complies with § 2.1-639.14(G) is enclosed for your convenience. You may either
make this declaration orally, which is to be recorded in the written minutes of the City
Council, or you may file a signed written declaration with the Clerk of the 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.
The Conflict of Interests Act deals with the types of influences upon a public officer's
judgment which are clearly improper. The law does not, however, protect against all
appearance of knproper influence. In that respect, the Act places the burden on the
individual officer to evaluate whether the facts presented create an appearance of impropriety
which is unacceptable or which would affect the confidence of the public in the officer's
ability to be impartial. I have opined that you may participate in Council's discussion and
vote on the applications without restriction. I have also opined that you may choose to
disclose your interest and participate. However, if you are concerned that participating, even
after disclosure, could create an unacceptable appearance, you may abstain from participating
under § 2.1-639.14(E) provided that you first disclose your interest in the transactions.
Please contact me should you desire any additional information.

constructed on both sides of minor streets within subdivisions
proposed for multiple family or commercial use, except as specified
in subsection (c) for subdivisions within the B-3A Pembroke Central
Business Core District, and may be required on one or both sides of
minor streets in subdivisions proposed for industrial use, if the
director of planning finds such requirement necessary in view of
desirable continuity of flow of substantial pedestrian traffic.
(c) Sidewalks in the B-3A Pembroke Central Business Core
29
30
District shall be no less than one hundred twenty (120) inches (ten
[10] feet) in width and shall be constructed on both sides of all

and where minimum lot width requirements as specified in the zoning
ordinance are less than one hundred (100) feet. As an exception to
this requirement, no sidewalk is required where not more than
twenty-five (25) dwelling units could be constructed on property
served by the street. This applies only if the street could not
reasonable be extended to serve more dwelling units.
(~_e) No sidewalks shall be required on minor streets in
districts zoned for one-family residential use where the minimum
lot width requirements as specified in the zoning ordinance are one
hundred (100) feet or more.
(e_f) Supplementary to the above requirements and
notwithstanding any exceptions or exclusions made therein, where
sidewalks required above fail to provide adequate access to
schools, along pedestrian routes where substantial concentration of
school pedestrian traffic is anticipated, sidewalks forty-eight
(48) inches in width shall be provided on both sides of streets
along the route of such concentration and within the subdivision,
provided however:
(1) No such sidewalks shall be required to be extended more
than one-half mile from the point of access to the school grounds
by normal pedestrian routes, except to include the full length of
a block which would otherwise have such sidewalks for only a
portion of its full length;
(2) Where the pattern of proposed and potential development is
such that safe, logical and convenient routing of school pedestrian
traffic requires a sidewalk on only one side of the street, the
director of planning may permit the provision of only one such
sidewalk; and
(3) Where the director of planning finds that walkways other
than in the form of sidewalks at the edges of streets would provide
safe, logical and convenient routing of pedestrian traffic, such
walkways, constructed in a manner found by the director of public
works to be appropriate to their purpose, may substitute for such
sidewalks.

Council Lady Henley referenced the General Assembly Joint Subcommittee HJR 656 (dedicated funding
source for transit) Hearing on November 27, 1995. Council Lady Henley advised the Joint Resolution
establishing this Subcommittee requires this Subcommittee to make a report to this year's General
,/lssembly. Council Lady Henley was appointed as a citizen to be a member of the Advisory committee.
The next meeting for this Subcommittee is scheduled for December 27, 1995. The Subcommittee wishes
an indication from each of the Governing Bodies in each of the localities in the region, so they can be
assisted in making their recommendation.
Council Lady Henley distributed a further analysis of the OPTIONS FOR FUNDING PUBLIC
TRANSPORTATION, which is hereby made a part of the record.
Council Lady Henley cited page ~ addressing the Transportation Trust Fund established in Virginia, as
a result of the COT 21 Study. One-half cent of the State Sales Tax was dedicated to the Transportation
Trust Fund. The Sales Tax revenues constitute approximately 54% of the Transportation Trust Fund.
8. 4% of the Transportation Trust Fund goes to the Mass Transit Fund. One of the possibilities would be
to change this formula to increase funds for transit. Council Lady Henley also referenced page 9, the
Northern Virginia Transportation District and the Potomac/Rappahannock District Transportation District
Commissions each have a 2% of retail price of motor fuel which goes to transit. These Districts were also
obligated to roll-back their real estate tax comparable to what each of those localities had been funding
for transit. Therefore, it was replacing one tax for another.
BY CONSENSUS, City Council will schedule no later than 12/19/95:
