ITEM # 41151
Dr. Donald Peccia, Associate School Superintendent, advised the City and Schools have worked very well
together in the area of Health Care. Dr. Peccia reflected on the four-year comparisons. Since 1993, the
City has experienced monthly premiums for the HMO's substantially less four years later, the beneflts are
better and at a higher level. Decreasing premiums was not at the sacrifice of decreasing benefits.
Lynn Sachs, Benefits Coordinator, advised currently approximately 4200 employees participate in the
Health Insurance Plan.

Ms. Sachs advised another positive was the City was able to maintain their subsidy of $170.00 per month
since 1993. Ms. Sachs advised approximately 4,200 eligible employees in the City program are
participating and about 8,000 of 10,000 in the Schools are participating. With the consolidation of City
and School health care, many more favorable arrangements have been negotiated

ITEM # 41151 (Continued)
Ms. Sachs advised there are approximately 1,000 employees currently participating in the Group Prepaid
Legal Plan at approximately $14 per employee per month. The recommendation is to increase City
Subsidy in 1998 to $5 and to $10 in 1996 to minimize financial impact of any Health Care increases.
Trigon Blue Cross/Blue Shield will be giving a substantial portion of stock to Virginia Beach
(approximately 45,000 shares). They have quoted the price will be anywhere from $5.50 to $1650.
Basically, the City must vote for or against the plan to change the company from a mutual company to
a stockholder company. This should enhance their competitiveness in the marketplace and give them an
opportunity to diversify. Ihe City must also vote as to whether to take cash or stock. The majority of the
shares are from the schools; however, all the funds would revert back to the City Treasury. If the City did
take the stock, they are not assured of the stock prices when it comes up on the open market. The stock
would have to be held on to for a six month period,- and, therefore, it is not that prudent of an investment
for a municipality. The City can request the cash, which would be paid out on a prorata basis. Dr. Peccia
advised there are approximately 4 different options.

CITY MANAGER'S BRIEFING
PACIFIC AVENUE CORRIDOR STUDY
10:37 A.M.
ITEM # 41152
John Herzke introduced representatives of Langley and McDonald provided information relative an
Analysis of the Pacific Avenue Corridor.
William J. Cashman, Jr., Principal - Langley and McDonald, presented a summary of findings on the
Resort Gateway and Pacific Avenue Corridor Study. The Resort Gateways and Pacific Avenue Projects
will create attractive, exciting, efficient and safe components of the oceanfront transportation system,
projecting positive iinages of Virginia Beach.
Traffic counts were conducted on the oceanfront last summer. A transportation and traffic simulation
model systematically evaluating the ocean front transportation system was developed Very little traffic
was coming from North Pacific all the way through to Atlantic and back- It way not functioning as an
arterial all the way through. The majority of the traffic was coming in on Twenty-first and Twenty-
second Streets. A small amount was coming in on Laskin, Virginia Beach Boulevard and Norfolk
Avenue. As traffic on 21st Street approached Pacific Avenue in that intersection, 40% of the traffic was
still going through to Atlantic. As Atlantic Avenue is clearly the major destination, it needs to be
considered in any actions taken along Pacific. Twenty-four alternatives were developed to determine and
isolate the impacts of various changes in traffic volumes, roadway design, traffic control and traffic
patterns. The 24 alternatives can be separated into the following three strategies:
Contraction of the roadway network
Expansion of the roadway
Reorientation of the roadway system
The recommendations represent a hybrid of expansion and reorientation.
Promote the use of Birdneck Road as a Bypass Route
Add a second left turn lane on Laskin Road at Birdneck Road.
Reduce 21st and 22nd Streets to three one-uwy Lanes with on-street
parking.
Increase the speed limit on 21st and 22nd Streets from 25 mph to 30
mph.
Convert Laskin Road to a one-way pair with 30th Street
Close 19th Street between Atlantic Avenue and Arctic Avenue
Convert Virginia Beach Boulevard to three lanes with a center two-way
left turn lane, and retain parking.
Retain four lanes on Pacific Avenue
Remove on -street parking from Pacific Avenue and Laskin Road
Provide left-turn lanes on Pacific Avenue at the intersections of 5th
Street, Norfolk Avenue, Virginia Beach Boulevard, 21st Street and 22nd
Street
Remove the Pacific Avenue right-turn lane at 25th Street
Decrease the speed limits on Pacific Avenue to 30 mph
Create trolley turnouts at three locations on Pacific Avenue.
Relative the streetscape, Vaughan Rinner, Principal - Langley and McDonald advised both the pedestrian
and the vehicular experience on entering the Gateways and traveling along Pacific Avenue will be greatly
enhanced by the development of an attractive and interesting streetscape that provides an immediate and
consistently recognizable sense of place.
In order to improve both the aesthetics and the function of the Gateways and Pacific Avenue for vehicles
and pedestrians, several design parameters have been identified:

CITY MANAGER'S BRIEFING
PACIFIC AVENUE CORRIDOR STUDY
ITEM # 41152 (Continued)
Provide a strong sense of arrival.
Provide elements of consistency and area identify.
Provide variety and rhythm along the travel corridor consistent with
the intensity and type of adjacent uses.
Utilize available open space to continue the connector park theme into
the larger Resort Area.
Provide clean, unified information systems throughout the Resort Area.
Design the streetscape to efficiently carry vehicles, and also to enhance
the pedestrian experience.
Design the roadway configuration and strectscape to allow for future
land use change.
Manage land use development to minimize no-resort traffic
generation.
The consistency should relate to the elements that have proven to be successful in the Atlantic Avenue
improvements. To ensure that the Resort Area presents a consistent pattern, common elements must
appear in the streetscape design. The concept is also true for Atlantic Avenue, the side streets, the minor
roadways, and all the public corridors in the Virginia Beach Resort. A system of basic roadway design
must be established to provide the motorists, cyclists, pedestrians and other users a safe and pleasant
experience.
Clay Massey, Project Engineer - Langley and McDonaltt referenced the approximate $69-MILLION
projed cost. Several valuable lessons on sequence of construction were learned from the successes of the
Atlantic Avenue Resort Streetscape Improvements including:
Separate the construction work effort into sections that can be
completed in a seven-month window from October 1 to May 1. This
usually encompasses seven to 13 blocks of construction per section.
Separate each section into two phases. In Phase I all duct bank
installation and Virginia Power relocations take place, and in Phase 2
all the remaining construction is completed
Tackle the high profile sections first to set a precedence and then spread
the construction efforts around enough to provide improvements to all the
adjacent proeprty owners in a timely manner.
The same formula which proved to be successful in the Atlantic Avenue Streetscape Projects will be
continued on the Resort Gateways and Pacific Avenue Projects.
Five Pacific Avenue construction sections and four Resort Gateway
sections have been identified. Each section is between seven and ten
blocks of construction.
Each section has been separated into two phases, with the exception of
Pacific Avenue from Rudee Inlet to NorfoLk Avenue. Here, all utilities
were placed underground in 1992. For the remaining sections, Phase I
will be construction of the duct bank and completion of all Virginia
Power conversions. Phase 2 will be reconstructed in the roadway and
walkways, water, sanitary sewer, storm drainage, lighting and the
remainder of the streetscape improvements.
Pacific Avenue Section I runs from Virginia Beach Boulevard to 22nd
Street - - the most difficult section along the entire Strip. The biggest
impact to tourists and residents alike is found in improving the most
congested sections first.

ITEM # 41152 (Continued)
Mr. Cashman advised the Southern Gateway could be designed and completed by May of 1997 at a cost
of approximately $1.5-MILLION if contingency were not involved. Contingency was added to the
approximate cost figure, as they did not know whether same would involve next year or 10 years from
now. The cost of the entire project could be $46-MILLION as an optimistic estimate. $69-MILLION
was a very pessimistic estimate with contingencies.
The credits have not been counted which the City negotiated with Vwginia Power at a cash value of
apprctximately $75,000 per block. There are elements of the plan which could be adopted, which would
be much more affordable.
The thought was to remove all on-street parking on Pacific Avenue, comprised of approximately 160
spaces. Parking should be either publicly or privately developed, but generally on lots on the west side
of Pacific Avenue (surface or high rise). If this project would be completely implemented, approximately
230 parking spaces would be lost.

CITY MANAGER'S BRIEFING
REDEVELOPMENT AND HOUSING AUTHORITY
11:30 AM.
ITEM # 41153
The City Attorney advised in 1938, the General Assembly authorized each City and County in the
Commonwealth of Virginia to create a Redevelopment and Housing Authority, and since that date, the
majority of Virginia cities and counties have taken advantage of this enabling legislation by creating such
an Authority within their respective jurisdiction. Under current law, a majority of the qualified voters
must indicate in a referendum election that a need for a Redevelopment and Housing Authority exists.
Mr. Lilley quoted lines 10 thru 15 of the proposed resolution. To call for a Referendum the City believes
either of the following three conditions exist.
"... (a) that insanitary or unsafe inhabited dwelling accommodations exist
in such city or county or (b) that there is a shortage of safe or sanitary
dwelling accommodations in such City or county available to persons of
low income at rentals that they can afford or (c) that there is a blighted
or deteriorated area which needs redeveloping".
A Redevelopment Authority is apolitical subdivision of the Commonwealth of Virginia. Each of its housing
or redevelopment projects must be approved by the local governing body before these projects can be
initiated. Therefore, the City Council has the authority to limit the types of projects of the Redevelopment
Authority. Because of the nature of Federal funding today, Redevelopment and Housing Authorities are
very much dependent on the local governing body for funding sources and very much more subject to the
direction of the City Council than in the past.
A Redevelopment and Housing Authority may conduct redevelopment projects in three different types of
areas: redevelopment, conservation and rehabilitation districts. Once the City has determined there is a
redevelopment area, there would be a redevelopment plan established for that area similar to the
Comprehensive Plan with Public Hearings. The Authority and the City Council must approve this
redevelopment plan. A conservation area is a blighted or deteriorating area or some portion thereof that
is susceptible to conservation by appropriate action. After a conservation plan is adopted, the Authority
may exercise powers similar to those it may exercise in a redevelopment area, albeit that the power of
eminent domain is limited Rehabilitation Districts are areas adjacent to blighted or deteriorating areas
that are susceptible to the spread of such conditions. Once a Rehabilitation District has been designated,
an Authority may lend money to property owners in the area for the rehabilitation of properties. An
Authority does not; however, have the power of eminent domain in such an area.
The City Council would appoint the Authority Members (between 5 and 9) and they can also remove them
for cause.
As per Council concerns, the Resolution shall be AMENDED and the statement shall be included that it
is not the desire nor intent of City Council that the powers of a local Redevelopment and Housing
Authority be exercised for the purpose of owning andlor operating housing projects in the City.
The City Attorney distributed Section 24.2-687 of the State Code: Authorization for distribution of
information on Referendum Elections. The explanation shall contain the ballot question and a statement
of not more than 500 words on the proposed election. The explanation shall be presented in plain English,
shall be limited to a neutral explanation, and shall not present arguments by either proponents or
opponents of the proposal. The attorney for the county or city or, if there is no county or city attorney,
the Attorney for the Commonwealth shall prepare the explanation.

E. Dean Block, Director of Management Services advised candidates for use of the Fund Balance:
GENERAL FUND BALANCE
AMOUNT AVAILABLE WORKSHEET
FY 95196 Undesignated Fund Balance $ 20,558,063
Less:
Amount Retained to Meet Fund Balance Reserve
Policy Target of 82.5% of Debt Services 587,373
Amount of Gainsharing Program (To be Appropriated) 1,733,850
Amount Appropriated for Multi-Purpose Stadium 100,000
(Appropriated 8/27/96)
Amount of Louise Luxford Elementary School Roof 442,593
Repair Net of School Revision 4mount of $138,107
(Agenda Item for 9/3/96)
Discretionary Undesignated Fund Balance 4 47
*Total Undesignated Fund Balance at 82.5% target level is
$53,338,975. This amount is retained per policy,
Mr. Block referenced the Candidates for Fund Balance Use provided to the City Council and hereby
made apart of the record. Two road projects and the potential for a acquisition project would entail
approximately $5.7-MILLION. In addition, a preliminary estimate for a Multi-Purpose Stadium of
$4.8-MILLION. Assuming these move forward, these amounts would be deducted from the Undesignated
Fund Bdance and approximately $7.3-MILLION would remain.
Funds re allocation for street lighting will be SCHEDULED for the City Council Session of September
10, 1996. Sheets will be forwarded to determine City Council's individual ranking of the Candidates for
Fund Balance Use.

Council Lady Henley referenced.-
J4 Ordinance to APPROPRIATE $580,610 from the General
Fund Balance to Capital Project (CIP #1-083) - "Renovations
and Replacements - Rerooflng "for the emergency reroofing of
Louise Luxford Elementary School,
Dr Donald Peccia, Associate School Superintendent, advised the School Board would be presented
information this evening relative the $138,107 reverted, by law, to the General Fund Balance from the
FY 1995-96 School Operating Fund.
Anthony L. Arnold, Project Engineer, advised the old roof would be torn off as it is saturated. On May
30, 1996, an exposed overhead wood beam in a fifth-grade classroom at Louise Luxford Elementary
School came loose from its structural connection to the building. Because the beam supports the roof of
the school and the loosening of the beam posed a threat of falling debris, which could injure students, it
was necessary to evacuate the fifth-grade classroom and adjoining rooms.
There are currently eight reroofing jobs. Cooke is dried in with all remaining being gravel and metal
work, Holland and Trantwood are complete. Thalia is dried in. Great Neck Middle, Old Donation and
Alanton are all slightly behind schedule due to the weather which completion is expected late September
or early October. The Bus Garage will be reroofed this Fall.

Application of ROBIN L. ROSS for a Conditional Use Permit for a home
occupation (child care) on Lot 14, Kempsville Heights, Section 2 (5156
Allyne Road), containing 15,000 square feet (KEMPSVILLE BOROUGH).
(Denied August 27, 1996)
Councilman Baum requested a policy be developed relative the amount of children above five which could
be approved for day care. It should be clarified that substantial neighborhood opposition would not
prevent approval of day care home occupations. Information relative the State licensing requirements
should be provided and the number allowed by their regulations. From a zoning perspective, the City can
recommend the amount of children to be cared for.
The City Attorney shall develop additional standards, availability of day care, the number of adults
required per number of children. Information will be provided relative standards for home occupations
which do not require Conditional Use Permits and education of the residents in the neighborhood relative
home occupations.
ITEM # 41157
Councilman Branch referenced The Farmer's Market and inquired whether same was insured. The City

MEMORANDUM REGARDING THE EMERGENCY PROCUREMENT
FOR THE REROOFING OF
LOUISE LUXFORD ELEMENTARY SCHOOL
1 - On May 30, 1996, an exposed overhead beam in a fifth-grade classroom
at Louise Luxford Elementary School came loose from its structural
connection to the building.
2. Because the beam supports the roof of the school and the loosening of
the beam posed a threat of failing debris, which could injure students,
it was necessary to evacuate the fifth-grade classroom and adjoining
rooms.
3. Because of the hazard posed to the safety of the teachers and students
by the beam which loosened and the unknown potential for other beams
to loosen, the school was closed on May 31, 1996, and temporary
shoring was placed in the school under both the beam which had
loosened and other beams, in preparation for reopening school on June
3, 1996.
4. School was reopened and held from June 3, 1996, through June 15,
1996, with temporary shoring of overhead beams throughout the
building.
5. School is now out for the summer, but will recommence on Tuesday,
September 3, 1996.
6. The School Board approved the emergency procurement of S. B. Ballard,
Inc. on July 16, 1996, in order to ensure that all of the structural
connections in the building would be reinforced prior to school opening.
7. The structural engineer, under contract to the School Division,
Mr. Edward Pence of Stroud, Pence and Associates (Stroud Pence), has
further determined that the entire roofing system needs to be replaced.
8. If a contract to reroof the building is put out for sealed, competitive
bidding, or competitive negotiation, as is required in routine
circumstances under the Virginia Public Procurement Act, the project
timeframe will be extended by six to eight weeks, which will lengthen
the disruption and inconvenience to the learning environment at the
school.
9. The loosening of the beam in the fifth-grade classroom, and the
Engineering determination that all structural connections in the building
need reinforcing and that the roof needs reroofing is both sudden and
unexpected.
10. The sudden and unexpected need to reroof the building, constitutes an
emergency under the Virginia Public Procurement Act which authorizes
selection of a contractor without competitive, scaled bidding or
competitive negotiation but with such competition as is practicable under
the circumstances.
11. The Office of Facilities Planning & Construction, in conjunction with the
architects currently under contract to the School Board, Hargrove,
Brockwell & Associates (HBA)and the structural engineering firm, Stroud
Pence, have, therefore, solicited proposals from four (4) qualified
reroofing contractors for performing the reroofing work.
1 2. This method is the most competitive practicable under the
circumstances.
13. Based on the four (4) proposals received, HBA has recommended
contracting with Block Roofing Corporation in the amount of $418,320.
Block Roofing Corporation has exhibited the manpower and willingness
to perform the work in a timely and efficient manner and is committed
to completing the work within the project time limits, and submitted the
lowest cost proposal of the four (4) contractors contacted by HBA.

MEMORANDUM REGARDING THE EMERGENCY PROCUREMENT
OF STRUCTURAL REPAIRS AT
LOUISE LUXFORD ELEMENTARY SCHOOL
1. On May 30, 1996, an exposed overhead beam in a fifth grade classroom at Louise
Luxford Elementary School came loose from its structural connection to the building.
2. Because the beam supports the roof of the school and the loosening of the beam posed
a threat of falling debris, which could injure students, it was necessary to evacuate
the fifth grade classroom and adjoining rooms.
3. Because of the hazard posed to the safety of the teachers and students by the beam
which loosened and the unknown potential for other beams to loosen, the school was
closed on May 31, 1996, and temporary shoring was placed in the school under both
the beam which had loosened and ottter beams, in preparation for re-opening school
on June 3, 1996.
4. School was reopened and held from June 3, 1996, through June 15, 1996, with
temporary shoring of overhead beams throughout the building.
5. School is now out for the sununer, but will recommence on Tuesday, September 3,
1996.
6. Temporary shoring is not satisfactory for the re-opening of school because it impedes
movement in the school.
7 . The structural engineer, under contract to the School Division, Mr. Edward Pence of
Stroud, Pence and Associates (Stroud Pence), has now determined that all of the
structural connections in the building, temporarily shored, need reinforcing.
8 If a contract to reinforce all of the structural members is put out for sealed,
competitive bidding, or competitive negotiation, as is required in routine
circumstances under the Virginia Public Procurement Act, the structural work will not
be done by September 3rd, and the students who would normally attend Luxford
Elementary School, will have to be housed elsewhere.
9 . The loosening of the beam in the fifth grade classroom, and the Engineerin@
c
determination that all structural connections in the building need reinforcing is both
sudden and unexpected.
10. The need to reinforce the structural connections in the building, prior to school
opening in September 1996, is a pressing necessity because if the reinforcement is not
done by then, students will have to be housed elsewhere.
2 -
11. The sudden and unexpected need to reinforce all structural members in this building,
together with the pressing necessity to reinforce them before school re-opens in
September 1996, constitutes an emergency under the Virginia Public Procurement Act
which authorizes selection of a contractor without competitive, sealed bidding or
competitive negotiation but with such competition as is practicable under the
circumstances
12. The Office of Facilities, Planning and Construction, in conjunction with the architects
currently under contract to the School Board, Hargrove, BrockweU & Associates
(BBA) and the structural engineering firm, Stroud Pence, have, therefore, solicited
proposals from three qualified general contractors for performing the reinforcing
work.
13. The three proposals are for performing the work this summer. Based upon the advice
of HBA and Stroud Pence, the proposals provide fixed mark-ups for overhead and
profit, stipulate hourly rates for personnel, and are to be done on a cost plus basis.
14. This method is the most competitive practicable under the circumstances.
15. Based on the three proposals received, HBA has recommended contracting with S.
B. Ballard, Inc., on a cost-plus basis as S. B. Ballard has provided the most
competitive profit margin and hourly rates and S. B. Ballard has exhibited the
manpower and willingness to perform the work in a timely and efficient manner and
is committed to completing the work before the opening of school.
16. It is expected that the structural reinforcement will not exceed $100,000.00 and
should be substantially complete in time for the school's opening @ Fall.
17. Facilities, Planning and Construction has also been advised by BBA and Stroud Pence
that it is possible that upon further investigation, it may turn out that the inherent
flatness of the roof is contributing to the roof load, creating additional structural
concerns, and the roof may also have to be replaced. If that is the case, future
consideration will have to be given regarding replacing the roof under emergency
procurement procedures and the potential impact on students this Fall.

UNFINISHED BUSINESS ITEM # 41173
Council Lady Parker referenced concerns of the public re dumping of newspapers rather than recycling.
The City Manager advised this was an administrative decision by the Staff due to a gap in the contract
to haul recyclables to the proper recycling center. A decision was made in order to try to save funds, not
made out of disrespect to the citizens and their efforts in recycling. This situation has been corrected and
individual letters are being forwarded to all concerned citizens in response to their concerns. Please
provide the City Manager's office with all letters concerning this item for reply.
Councilman Baum advised he had mentioned sometime ago, the issue of recycling should be reexamined.
Councilman Baum did not believe there was a great shortage of trees. There are more frees being raised
in the southeastern part of the United States than previously. There is an abundance of rural land that
is not suitable for growing crops, but would be excellent for landfalls. The public keeps mentioning our
no longer being a member of SPSA. The public does not understand the City would have to create another
debt of $1.2-MILLION to accomplish this mission through SPSA.
Council Lady Strayhorn reminded the City of its promise relative individual recycling.
Council Lady McCianan requested the appearance of the recycling sites be improved.
The City Manager advised the sites were being checked at least once a day and larger containers were
being furnished. The volume of materials have been far in excess of anticipated.
