CITY MANAGER'S BRIEFING
RADIO COMMUNICATION SYSTEM
11:18 A.M.
ITEM # 4459 7
David Sulhvan, Director of Information Technology, advised the City's emergency communication system
was inttially tnstalled tn the early 1980's and ts comprtsed primarily of the computer-aided dispatch system
(CADS), the microwave transmission system and simulcast radio system. The stmulcast racho system ts
comprised of mobile data terminal and voice radio The vast majority of calls for service are sent directly
to mobile data termtnals located tn pubtc safety vehtcles Funding for replacement of the Ctty's CADS was
approved by City Counctl tn June 1998 The Pohcy Report addresses only the needs associated wtth the
microwave transmission system and the simulcast radio system. Users of thts system tnclude. Police, Fire,

CITY MANAGER'S BRIEFING
RADIO COMMUNICATION SYSTEM
ITEM # 44597 (Continued)
Mr. Sullivan advised the City Staff recommends Option 6 with a two step tmplementatton
Step One:
Replace microwave
Replace 800 MHz simulcast radio system equipment
Replace Mobile Data Terminals
New radio transmisston site in Baystde
Expand the capacity of the transmtssion site at the Oceanfront
New radio transmtssion site tn Kempsvdle
Renovation of equtpment space as requtred to accommodate the new system.
Step Two:
Phased conversion over several years of the analog rachos to dtgttal.
RECOMMENDATIONS ON FINANCING
First, use existing fund balances where possible to minimize debt requirements
Second, Lease Purchase over a 5-year period
Annual debt payment ts estimated at $1,220,225
Pay annual debt payment by:
Using annual revenues from spectal public safety funds
Billing using agencies for the annual matntenance cost of matntaimng the system
Using annual revenues from the extsttng E911 tax
Ustng new fundtng whtch may be available from General Assembly or State grants to
make up any shortfall
Constder an E911 tax tncrease
RECOMMENDATION ON TIMING
Use the existing Capital ProJect Fundtng- $6 25-MILLION to enter tnto a contract wtth
Motorola
Motorola has agreed to hold prtcing on balance of contract work until July 30, 1999
Instruct staff to include the rematningfundtng requirements for Councd's discusston of the
FY 1999-00 Capital tmprovement program
Dtrect staff to conclude contract negotiations with Motorola, Inc and to expedtte
procurement
Mr. Sulhvan advised there are only two vendors: GE Erickson and Motorola. Motorola ts clearly the
domtnant vendor In Hampton Roads, only the City of Hampton utthzes the GE Ertckson technology All the
other cittes utthze Motorola Which means, for some reason, tf Virginta Beach were to lose our racho system,
work could be accomphshed through Norfolk's radio system Should Norfolk's racho system fad, Norfolk
would uttltze thts Ctty's. Mr Sulltvan advtsed there ts a dechcated Motorola representattve asstgned to the
City's account.
Mr. Sulltvan expressed apprectation to the Radio Communicattons Committee charred by Captatn Irving -
Police Communtcattons Division and Catheryn Whttesell - Management Servtces who have been dtltgently
worktngfor a number of months on thts pohcy.
BY CONSENSUS, an Or&nance amen&ng the FY 1998-99 Capttal Improvement Program Budget'
Communication System Upgrade, shall be scheduled for the Ctty Counctl Sesston of February 23, 1999

CITY MANAGER'S BRIEFING
AMPHITHEATER SOUND STUDY FOLLOW-UP
12:08 P.M.
ITEM # 44598
The Ctty Manager referenced correspondence to Ctty Council relative the sound attenuation at the GTE
Virginia Beach Amphitheater. It ts the staff's recommendation that the City continue to work with the
amphitheater staff to monttor sound complatnts and make adjustments during concerts to address spectfic
atmospheric conditions, but do not pursue modifications to the butldtng at thts ttme. The staff will also
explore the posstbthty of increasing the landscaping on the berm which was recently tnstalled adjacent to
the soccer complex parking lot, to provtde ad&tional buffering of the communtty. Proposed changes to the
butldtng would requtre a detatled structural analysts to determtne tf the building can accept the sound
panels, or if any structural modtfication(s) would be necessary. The structural analysts wdl require 60 days
and cost an estimated $10,000 to $20,000. Subsequent destgn preparatton of construction documents wtll
require an addttiona160 days Bidding and constructton of the proposed modtficattons is estimated to take
120-180 days. The cost ts prehmtnartly estimated at approximately $500,000; however, structural
modifications, if necessary, would increase thts esttmate Replacement costs will also have to be budgeted
pertodtcally. These panels have been esttmated to have an approxtmate 8-year life. If installed, the Ctty
will incur an ongoing maintenance responstbtlityfor the tnstallatton and removal of the sound curtatns each
season. The curtatns would need to be removed in the threat of a hurrtcane ,,t storage area of
approximately 10, 000 square feet would be required to store the acousttcal curtatn panels when not tn use.
After the 1999 concert season, the staff advtsed they will report back to City Councd on sound complaints
received, at which potnt we can reconstder modtfications to the buil&ng if signtficant sound complatnts
perstst
The Ctty Manager advtsed the equtpment tnstalled by GTE is much more sophisttcated than contemplated
previously Council Members expressed concern and advtsed if the solution is to be the reductton of the
sound level how ts it to be momtored and enforced The City Manager advtsed Cellar Door has been
cooperattve. They have had problems wtth some of the arttsts who will not cooperate wtth them. The
exceptton last year was the Metalhc Concert, which was "off the sound chart". They were clearly operattng
at a level whtch no one would approve
Mark Wawner, Department of Economic Development, advised 60 decibels ts a national standard for sound
tn communittes. Mr. Wawner advised 4,000 flyers have been &stributed and there has been ongotng
dialogue with the presidents of the ctvic leagues tn the surroundtng neighborhoods Information has been
disstmilated to the Civic Leagues. There is a phone number for cittzens ' sound complatnts This phone ts
only acttvated during the season. Thts is an answertng servtce whtch receives the ctttzen's name and address
and then pages the individual who ts monttortng the sound complaints who wtll then take a sound reachng
at this particular place. Mr Wawner wtll provtde Council Lady Henley with the new phone number when
issued.
Council suggested amenchng the Or&nance limiting the sound decibels There should be an independent
monitor of the sound before funds in the amount of $500, 000 are expended Relative the concept of adoptmg
an Ordtnance specifying a 55 decibel level, the Ctty Attorney advised this ts a very complex issue when the
Ctty has entered into a public/prtvate partnership and specified certatn dectbel level of 60. The Ctty
Attorney stated the norse ordinance only says "unreasonable noise" and does not reflect a dectbel level.
Mr. Wawner advtsed the Ctty did have an tndependent sound expert monitor three shows' at the end of the
season They were Janet Jackson, Arrowsmtth and Jethro Tull The sound monitoring systems were set up
at one end of the park at the Soccer Complex and one at Landstown Meadows Park At no ttme at any of
those three concerts, did the amphitheater exceed the sound ordtnance.
The Ctty wtll speak with Cellar Door relative the reduction of sound and there will be an tndependent
monitoring of the sound

expressed by City Counctl relattve the total number of stgns within the pubhc right-of-way - ~ not only signs
from tnchvtduals or compames, but signs tnstalled by the City Mr Warnstaffhas requested the Pubhc Works
staff to revtew thetr own internal policy for signage in the public right-of-way. The City has an obhgatton
to ensure adequate stgns to protect pubhc health and safety To the extent that "City" stgns not needed for
public health and safety, they would be removed
Councd Lady Eure referenced questtons she had faxed to Mr Warnstaff relative maintenance and cost
Mr Warnstaff advised the annual cost tncrease tn operations and maintenance would be insignificant
Existtng Ctty staff wtll be utthzed for theplacement of the stgns, as well as extsttng Ctty trucks to carry those
signs from one locatton to another. There wtll be existtng facilittes for the storage of the stgns. The hghts
on the stgn are esttmated to have a lO-year hfe span. The battertes should last approximately 2 to 4 years

CITY COUNCIL COMMENTS

ITEM # 4460 7
Council Lady Henley and Council Lady McClanan attended the Pubhc Meeting relative the Princess Anne
Corridor Study on Thursday, February 4, 1999 There were approximately 300 people in attendance As
there were so many in attendance, the format was not effective. Citizens complained because they could not
hear the speakers. Microphones were not provided The corridor for this Public Meeting was defined as
located from Dam Neck Road to the Municipal Center Therefore, it was approximately 'half of what
Council Lady Henley terms the Princess Anne Corridor., Council Lady Henley inquired relative the scope
and purpose of this study whether it is a preliminary design discussion or whether tt is the road project that
is going to be apart of Ferrell Parkway. Council Lady Henley was under the impression the Princess Anne
Corridor, in the Comprehensive Plan, entailed aH of the five-mile stretch. It ts hard to divide One of the
gentlemen in attendance told his group of approximately 70 to 100 citizens that the City had devalued his
property by downzoning it approximately two years ago. He stated the City did this in order to buy the
property for the road expansion at a lower cost. There were many in attendance who believed the City is
attempting to steal theirproperty This misconception must be corrected. The main discussion involved the
roads planned in this area. There is an enormous number of planned road lane miles in that 2 ~-mile section
between the Municipal Center and Dam Neck Road Citizens were very displeased Council Henley did not
believe there was going to be enough development between the Municipal Center and Dam Neck Road to
justify all of the lane miles on the Master Street and Highway Plan. Citizens expressed concern relative the
map in the newspaper which depicted London Bridge Road extended Their concern was this whole section
was being devoured with planned roads. Council Lady Henley inquired tf an update of the Harland
Bartholomew Study is needed. Council Lady Henley wondered if the Master Street and ttighway Plan is
reflective of the current Comprehensive plan Citizens become very upset when viewing planned roads m
locations where they have just purchased new houses.
Council Lady Henley requested a presentation to City Council relative the Princess Anne Corridor Study
There were citizens in attendance from North Landing Road, Princess Anne Road, Holland Road, etc
Council Lady McClanan advised Holland Road seemed to be their main priority Citizens did not want
Farmers Market or Princess Anne Park moved Citizens wish the quahty of the municipal center to be
maintained. This area is being developed as residential; however, highways are being installed as if the
City plans to over-commercialize the area
The City Manager advised correspondence will be forwarded to those in attendance clarifying issues t. e
the downzontng of the citizens' property was a misstatement. The Master Street and Highway Plan being
consistent with the Comprehensive Plan is a good subject for a Briefing. Approximatelyfive years ago, the
City downstzed many roads and reduced the cost of the road system by approximately $100-MILLION. A
Briefing on the Corridor will be scheduled for City Councd. The staff ts doing some very excttmg things tn
terms of implementing the Comprehensive Plan,
