CITY MANAGER'S BRIEFING
SOUTHEASTERN EXPRESSWAY
10:30 A.M.
ITEM # 38535
Robert J. Scott, Director of Planning, advised the Southeastern Expressway was established as one of
the City's top priorities. In order to accommodate the City's transportation needs, the strategy of
expanding existing arterials has significant limits i.e. environmental constraints, impacts of displacement.
The Southeastern Expressway is a major step toward a multi-modal approach to dealing with
transportation needs. The Expressway includes a light rail corridor and one for HOg' travel. This project
is consistent with the Comprehensive Plan and Environmental Protection initiatives. The following four
agencies have concurred and signed the Statement of Purpose and Need: Environmental Protection
Agency, U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service, the Corps of Engineers and the Natural Marine and Fisheries
Service.
Arthur Collins, Executive Director - Hampton Roads Planning District Commission, advised the
Southeastern Expressway is an integral part of Chesapeake's circulation system and effects the Cities of
Norfolk, Portsmouth and Suffolk. The Oak Grove Connector is an element of the Southeastern
Expressway. The Expressway provides another option for getting to Virginia Beach.
Chris M. Lloyd, Vice President - Maguire Group, Inc., advised, for the first time in Virginia, the
aforementioned Federal Resource Agencies have been brought together. Therefore, the process has been
combined. The Location Public Hearing next week will not just be sponsored by the Virginia Department
of Transportation, but also by the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers, as part of the public interest review for
the permit process. It is envisioned with this process, not only will there be an acceptable environmental
document addressing the impacts and mitigation associated, but also a permit will be in hand. Two other
major legislative initiatives are the Clean Air Amendments of 1990 and the Inner Modal Surface
Transportation Efficiency Act of 1991 (ISTEA). Both the Clean Air donendments and ISTEA have
changed the playing fieM for major projects. Mr. Lloyd displayed the Typical Transportation
Development Sections (footprint) of the Southeastern Expressway. There is a mitigation package, which
should address and minimize impacts. Direct impacts to wetlands consume anywhere from 270 to 350
acres. There will be mitigation for direct impacts to wetlands, and there will be mitigation on site within
the same drainage shed. There will also be mitigation associated with the relocation of residences and
cultural resource impacts. There will be an assessment and an inventory of secondary and cumulative
impacts associated with natural resources for the Southeastern Expressway. A habitat evaluation
program will be utilized to assess functions and values of habitat throughout the corridor. Seventeen
indicated species were evaluated throughout Southeastern Virginia to determine the nature of the habitat
that would be disturbed by the Southeastern Expressway alternatives. These assessments will be utilized
to assist in the evaluation and development of a mitigation site. VDOT will also be involved in
consultation with U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service for impacts. Probably the most significant elements of
the environmental package will be a Preservation and Conservation Component for Stumpy Lake and
adjacent environs. Some method of enhanced coordination between Virginia Beach, Chesapeake and the
Resource Agencies will be reviewed

ITEM # 38535 (Continued)
Concerning the South alternative comprising $354-MILLION with a length of approximately 19.8 miles,
it would entail approximately $90-100-MILLION to provide HOV Lanes.
Mr. Lloyd advised the Hampton Roads Crossing Study, which should be available in the Spring of next
year will be utilized as a tool to assist in evaluating the appropriate time for the HOV to come on line
on the Southeastern Expressway.
Mr. Lloyd advised the listing of all landowners, which would be impacted by the Southeastern
Expressway is available in the Department of Planning..

CITY MANAGER'S BRIEFING
OPERATING BUDGET FIVE-YEAR FORECAST
FY 1996 - FY 2000
11:30 A.M.
ITEM # 38536
E. Dean Block, Director - Management and Budget, detailed information relative the Five-Year Forecast
FY 1996 - FY 2000, Financial Conditions and Trends. Mr. Block advised the International City
Manager's Association (ICMA) developed a package of indicators to establish and evaluate the trends
affecting financial conditions.
What is Financial Condition ?
Ability to withstand local and regional economic disruptions.
Ability to maintain service levels and capital base.
Ability to meet the demands of natural growth, decline and
change; ability to help shape future.
Mr. Block, with the utilization of charts, depicted eight (8) indicators summarizing the issues.
Percent of Population Receiving Food Stamps and ADC
Per Capita Income Comparison
Number of Jobs (Excludes Military & Proprietors)
Age of Housing Stock
Revenues Per Capita (Constant Dollars)
Real Estate and Personal Property (Tax Revenues in Constant Dollars)
Operating Budget History (Exclusive of Utilities)
Undesignated Fund Balance (As of June 30)
Until 1988, the Per Capita Income in Virginia Beach exceeded that of the Region, as well as the State.
After 1988, the State of Virginia passed the City in per capita income. As an overall figure, the City tends
to out perform the region. Concerning the percentage of population receiving Food Stamps and Aid to
Dependent Children, these dependencies are rising faster than growth of population. Citizens receiving
food stamps have increased from 2% to over 6% of the population over the past decade. In the case of
ADC, this percentage has doubled. The economy continues to generate jobs and has been consistently
doing so with the exception of the 1990/1991 recession time period. In terms of job growth, the City tends
to out perform the region. There are issues related to quality, which deserve additional research.
Although, it does appear, the City of Virginia Beach does generate a reasonable number of high skilled
jobs in technical areas and in some of the financial service areas, but there is a substantial portion of
the economy dependent upon the service sector and relatively lower skilled jobs. The Age of Housing
Stock reflects a substantial proportion over 15 and 25 years old. Housing stock is an important causal
factor in the long term health of the community. Revenues per Capita in Constant Dollars consists
basically of all the revenues utilized by the City except utilities. Between 1989 and 1994, there has been
only a slight increase in revenues per capita after inflation. The Real Estate and Personal Property Chart
indicates, over the last several years, the City's real property tax rate has grown at rates less than
inflation. The real property tax accounts for about 1/2 of the total of local taxes. Personal property, in
addition to the real proeprty, accounts for 5/8 of the total of local taxes. The Operating Budget History
chart reflects the three aspects of the Budget: City Operations, School Operations and CIP/Debt Service.
The Undesignated Fund Balance indicates a positive effect concerning the City Council's policies initiated
several years ago.

Pursuant to Chapter 22, Title 62.1 of the Code of Virginia
(1950), as amended (the "Act"), the General Assembly created a
permanent and perpetual fund known as the "Virginia Water

The Borrower has requested a loan from the Fund and will
evidence its obligation to repay such loan by the Local Bond the
Borrower will issue and sell to the Fund. The Borrower will use
the proceeds of the sale of the Local Bond to the Fund (i) to
finance that portion of the Project Costs not being paid from

Section 8.10. Mandatory Co~nection. To the extent permitted
by law, the Borrower shall adopt and enforce rules and
regulations, consistent with applicable laws, requiring the owner,
tenant or occupant of each lot or parcel of land which is served
or may reasonably be served by the System and upon which lot or
parcel a building shall have been constructed for residential,
commercial or industrial use, to connect such building to the
System; provided, however, such rules and regulations may permit
the continued use of private sewage disposal systems approved by
the applicable board of health or health officer by any such
building already in existence at the time the services of the
System become available to it upon such conditions as may be
specified in such rules and regulations or until such time as such
approved private sewage disposal system shall cease to be approved
or shall require major repairs to continue to be approved, at
which time such building shall be required to connect to the
System.
Section 8.11. Lawful Charges. The Borrower shall pay when
due all taxes, fees, assessments, levies and other governmental
charges of any kind whatsoever (collectively, the "Governmental
Charges") which are (i) assessed, levied or imposed against the
System or the Borrower's interest in it, or (ii) incurred in the
operation, maintenance, use and occupancy of the System. The
Borrower shall pay or cause to be discharged, or shall make
adequate provision to pay or discharge, all lawful claims and
demands for labor, materials, supplies or other objects which, if
unpaid, might by law become a lien upon all or any part of the
System or the Revenues (collectively, the "Mechanics' Charges").
The Borrower, after giving the Authority ten (10) days' notice of
its intention to do so, at its own expense and in its own name,
may contest in good faith any Governmental Charges or Mechanics'
Charges. If such a contest occurs, the Borrower may permit the
same to remain unpaid during the period of the contest and any
subsequent appeal. Upon request, the Borrower shall furnish to
the Authority proof of payment of all Governmental Charges and the
Mechanics' Charges required to be paid by the Borrower under this
Agreement.
Section 8.12. Performance Certification. Upon completion of
the Project and its commencement of operation (the "Initiation of
15
Operation"), the Borrower shall promptly notify the Department.
If the Borrower fails to so notify the Department, the Department
may establish such date. During the year after the Initiation of
Operation, the Borrower shall retain a Consulting Engineer to
assist in the operation of the Project and the training of
operating personnel, to revise the Borrower's operation and
maintenance manual, as necessary, and to advise the Borrower if
the Project is meeting the Performance Standards. One year from
the Initiation of Operation, the Borrower shall submit to the
Department a certificate as to whether the Performance Standards
have been met. If the Department concludes that the Performance
Standards have not been met, the Borrower shall submit within
thirty (30) days of such date a report detailing (i) the reasons
for the failure of the Project to meet the Performance Standards,
(ii) the Borrower's plan for undertaking any necessary corrective
action to cause the Project to meet the Performance Standards, and
(iii) a schedule for completing any such corrective action,
including the projected date for the submission of a certificate
stating that the Performance Standards have been met. The
Borrower shall then undertake such corrective action and any other
action necessary to meet the Performance Standards. When the
Project has met the Performance Standards, the Borrower shall so
certify to the Department. For so long as the Performance
Standards have not been met, the Borrower shall retain a
Consulting Engineer, unless the Department shall agree otherwise
in writing.
ARTICLE IX
INSURANCE, DAMAGE AND DESTRUCTION

limitation:
(a) Insurance in the amount of the full replacement
cost of the System's insurable portions against loss or damage by
fire and lightning, with broad form extended coverage endorsements
covering damage by windstorm, explosion, aircraft, smoke,
sprinkler leakage, vandalism, malicious mischief and such other
risks as are normally covered by such endorsements (limited only
as may be provided in the standard form of such endorsements at
the time in use in Virginia); provided that during the
construction of the Project, the Borrower may provide or cause to
be provided, in lieu of the insurance in the amount of the full
replacement cost of the Project, builders' risk or similar types
of insurance in the amount of the full replacement cost thereof.
The determination of replacement cost shall be made by a
16
recognized appraiser or insurer selected by the Borrower and
reasonably acceptable to the Authority.
(b) Comprehensive general liability insurance with a
combined single limit of $1,000,000 per year against liability for
bodily injury, including death resulting therefrom, and for damage
to property, including loss of use thereof, arising out of the
ownership, maintenance, operation or use of the System.
(c) Unless the Borrower qualifies as a self-insurer
under the laws of Virginia, workers' compensation insurance.
The Authority shall not have any responsibility or obligation
with respect to (i) the procurement or maintenance of insurance or
the amounts or the provisions with respect to policies of
insurance, or (ii) the application of the proceeds of insurance.
Section 9.2. Requirements of Policies. (a) Ail insurance
required by Section 9.1 shall be maintained with generally
recognized, responsible insurance companies selected by the
Borrower and reasonably acceptable to the Authority. Such
insurance may be written with deductible amounts comparable to
those on similar policies carried by other utility systems of like
size and character to the System. If any such insurance is not
maintained with an insurer licensed to do business in Virginia or
placed pursuant to the requirements of the Virginia Surplus Lines
Insurance Law (Chapter 48, Title 38.2, Code of Virginia of 1950,
as amended) or any successor provision of law, the Borrower shall
provide evidence reasonably satisfactory to the Authority that
such insurance is enforceable under Virginia law.
(b) In lieu of insurance written by commercial
insurance companies, the City may maintain a program of self-
insurance or participate in group risk financing programs, as and
to the extent and subject to the requirements set forth in Section
808 of the Master Bond Resolution.
(c) The Borrower shall provide no less often than
annually and upon the written request of the Authority a
certificate or certificates of the respective insurers evidencing
the fact that the insurance required by Section 9.1 hereof is in
force and effect.
Section 9.3. Notice of Damage, Destruction and Condemna-
tion. In the case of (i) any damage to or destruction of any
material part of the System, (ii) a taking of all or any part of
the System or any right therein under the exercise of the power of
eminent domain, (iii) any loss of the System because of failure of
title, or (iv) the commencement of any proceedings or negotiations
which might result in such a taking or loss, the Borrower shall
give prompt notice thereof to the Authority describing generally
the nature and extent of such damage, destruction, taking, loss,
- 17
proceedings or negotiations.
Section 9.4. Damaqe and Destruction. If all or any part of
the System is destroyed or damaged by fire or other casualty, and
the Borrower shall not have exercised its option to prepay in full
the Local Bond pursuant to Article VII hereof and Section 809 of
the Master Bond Resolution, the Borrower shall restore promptly
the property damaged or destroyed to substantially the same
condition as before such damage or destruction, with such
alterations and additions as the Borrower may determine and which
will not impair the capacity or character of the System for the
purpose for which it then is being used or is intended to be used.
The Borrower will apply the Net Proceeds as set forth in Section
809 of the Master Bond Resolution.
Section 9.5. Condemnation and Loss of Title. If title to
or the temporary use of all or any part of the System shall be
taken under the exercise of the power of eminent domain or lost
because of failure of title, and the Borrower shall not have
exercised its option to prepay in full the Local Bond pursuant to
Article VII hereof and Section 809 of the Master Bond Resolution,
the Borrower shall cause the Net Proceeds from any such condemna-
tion award or from title insurance to be applied as set forth in
Section 809 of the Master Bond Resolution.

Department, all of the obligations of the Borrower contained in
the Local Bond and this Agreement, and there is furnished to the
Authority and the Department an Opinion of Counsel acceptable to
the Authority and the Department subject to customary exceptions
and qualifications, to the effect that such assumption constitutes
the legal, valid and binding obligation of the surviving,
resulting or transferee political subdivision enforceable against
it in accordance with its terms.

the Master Bond Resolution, and such audit shall be conducted in
accordance with the provisions of the Single Audit Act of 1984, 31
U.S.C. §§ 7501 et seq., as amended, and the regulations
promulgated thereunder, including OMB Circular No. A-128. The
Borrower shall furnish to the Authority copies of such report
immediately after it is submitted to the Borrower. The Borrower
shall also furnish to the Authority a certificate of such
accountant to the effect that, during the course of such
accountant's regular examination of the Borrower's financial

of the report required by Section 810(b) of the Master Bond
Resolution upon receipt thereof.

specifying the nature and period of such event or condition and
what action the Borrower has taken, is taking or proposes to take
to rectify it.

not incur any indebtedness or issue any bonds, notes or other
evidences of indebtedness secured by a pledge of Revenues, except
Subordinate Bonds or Parity Bonds.
Section 10.5. Parity Bonds. Provided the Borrower is not in
default hereunder, the Borrower may issue bonds, notes or other
evidences of indebtedness ranking on parity with the Local Bond
with respect to the pledge of Revenues ("Parity Bonds") as and to
the extent and subject to the conditions set forth in Article III

issuance of such debt within 30 days of its issuance and provide a
copy of the supplemental resolution authorizing the issuance of
such debt.

- 19 -
fullest extent permitted by law pass, make, do, execute, acknowl-
edge and deliver such further resolutions, acts, deeds,
conveyances, assignments, transfers and assurances as may be
necessary or desirable for the better assuring, conveying,
granting, assigning and confirming the rights, Revenues and other
funds pledged or assigned by this Agreement, or as may be required
to carry out the purposes of this Agreement. The Borrower shall

desires to assign its rights under this Agreement to another
"local government" (as defined in the Act), the Borrower shall
give notice of such fact to the Authority and the Department. If
the Authority and the Department consent to the proposed assign-
ment, the Borrower may proceed with the proposed assignment, but
such assignment shall not become effective until the Authority and
the Department are furnished (i) an assumption agreement in form
and substance satisfactory to the Authority and the Department by
which the assignee agrees to assume all of the Borrower's obliga-
tions under the Local Bond and this Agreement, and (ii) an Opinion
of Counsel to the assignee, subject to customary exceptions and
qualifications, that the assumption agreement, the Local Bond and
this Agreement constitute legal, valid and binding obligations of
the assignee enforceable against the assignee in accordance with
their terms and that the assignment and assumption comply in all
respects with the provisions of this Agreement. Notwithstanding
the foregoing, the assignment of the rights of the Borrower under
the Local Bond and this Agreement or the assumption of the
obligations thereunder by the assignee shall in no way be
construed as releasing the Borrower's obligations.
Section 10.9. Compliance with Master Bond Resolution. The
Borrower shall comply with all material provisions of the Master
Bond Resolution and furnish to the Authority a copy of any
amendments or supplements to it promptly upon the execution and
delivery thereof.

of Default immediately upon becoming aware of the existence
thereof.

Default referred to in Section 11.1 shall have happened and be

Default shall impair any such right or power or shall be construed
to be a waiver of any such Default or Event of Default or
acquiescence therein, and every such right or power may be
exercised from time to time and as often as may be deemed
expedient. No waiver of any Default or Event of Default under
this Agreement shall extend to or shall affect any subsequent
Default or Event of Default or shall impair any rights or remedies
consequent thereto.

become the temporary Director for this Urban Partnership. A group of thirteen Virginia cities was
formed to study various economic, financial and governmental issues facing Virginia's urban areas. This
group has linked to the Virginia Municipal League and State level Chamber of Commerce to study these
issues and eventually develop possible legislative initiatives to address study conclusions. Virginia Beach
can join this partnership for a $10,000 membership fee.

Mayor Oberndorf referenced correspondence from Chuck Wyatt, Region I Manager for the State
Dzpartment of Conservation and Recreation. Mr. Wyatt initially contacted the Mayor to request the City
take a position supporting their effort to improve access to False Cape State Park. The U.S. Fish and
Wildlife Service has greatly restricted access to the State property.
Council Lady Henley quoted the last paragraph of the proposed Resolution:
"BE IT FINALLY RESOLVED, that we support deeded access for the
Commonwealth of Virginia and her citizens to False Cape State Park in
perpetuity, unlimited by the Federal Government and that we enlist the
support of the Virginia Congressional Delegation in obtaining this
access."
The State is interested in deeded access. Council Lady Henley advised, in the chronology concerning 1982
False Cape Task Force, she served on this Task Force as a representative of the City and believed there
was a misrepresentation of the recommendations of the Task Force. There was no recommendation for
a land exchange in fee simple.
City Council will take NO ACTION.

COUNCIL O, UESTIONS RE STORM WATER MANAGEMENT PRESENTATION
Completed NPDES supplemental information and the Storm Water Quality program Data Narrative were
distributed to City Council
Ralph Smith, Director of Public Works, advised as the City enters the third year of the NPDES five-year
permit program, the City is anticipating there will be standards created for the community based upon
the tests. As long as data is created which has been required under the Permit that demonstrates the City
is performing reasonably well, this will be the standard.
Councilman Moss advised Lake Trashmore will involve a very unique solution and inquired re the
remedlation effort. Mr. Smith advised when the City Staff becomes aware of the exact contaminants then
the corrective design will be created.
Mr. Smith advised the problems inherffed need to be identified and arrayed with all the problems on the
aspects of governing a City. There are limited resources and priorities which mast be established. Public
Works has attempted to present an insight into the condition of the system.
Councilman Moss referenced from this approximate $8.22 bill (Storm Water Management Fee) net profit
is slightly over $6.00 after the costs of sending out this bill are deducted. Water quality is not the main
drive of the fee, but flood control, which is public safety. Therefore, that is a tax. City Council should
consider eliminating this fee. ~4 tax is a more equitable means to deal with flood control for the whole City
than a fee.
The City Manager advised the Staff is investigating developing with the Hampton Roads Sanitation
District a joint billing process to reduce the overhead cost. Council Lady Henley advised of her
attendance at a recent briefing session from the regional agencies, HRSD had offered, without charge,
to perform any billing for the individual cities.
Phil Davenport, Administrator Services Co-Ordinator, advised HRSD is involved at the present time in
a test billing with the City of Norfolk. Once this testing is complete and successful, the City of V~rginia
Beach will investigate bringing water and sewer bills on line with HRSD. The storm water fee is a slightly
different data base from water and sewer and will entail more effort. This would be the third step in the
process.
Mr. Davenport further advised the cost of preparing the Storm Water Management fee bills was
approximately $100,000 with an approximate $60,000 expended by the City Treasurer's Office for
processing the payments. Thus $160,000 would be saved, if this fee were added to the HRSD bill. A
billing file and customer service clerks, to respond to citizen concerns, would still have to be maintained
by the City.
Councilman Dean referenced the 82 cases of illicit discharges in the City. Mark Johnson, Project
Manager for Engineering and Permitting - City's Stormwater 3~,stem, advised not all were illicit
discharges. To date, no fines have been collected through the court system. If possible, the City discusses
this violation with the individua~ advises them same is a misdemeanor and usually the perpetrator will
clean up the discharge. For the few who continue to be a problem, the staff is discussing solutions with
the City Attorney's office. Councilman Dean had a problem with the fee never being removed.
Mr. Johnson advised newer developments are required to design to the ten-year storm event and analyze
the downstream system to ensure its capacity to convey the storm water. The BMP'S to be implemented
only allow pollutants to be reduced. There is still a certain amount of pollutants that will be discharged
to the downstream system. The BMP's also act as a surge capacity.
Art Shaw, Operations Engineer - Public Works, advised cleaning ditches does not help water quality.
Cleaning ditches primarily ensures a fiow of water. Vegetation is removed as a mosquito control
technique. Lakes and ponds are dredged to increase depth and volume.
Mr. Smith advised a testing program is in process relative Lake Trashmore by the Hampton Roads
Sanitation District. Data will be accumulated to develop a corrective program.

SUBJ: Questions Regarding Storm Water Utility Presentation
During the storm water utility presentation on November 1,
Councilman Moss asked three questions:
What was the cost of preparing the color
presentation?
o
What happened to the $5.3 million in the General Fund
when the utility fee was implemented?
How was the cost benefit analysis prepared to determine
that some services could be performed with less expense

ATTACHMENT 2
What happened to the $5.3 million in the General Fund when the
utility fee was implemented?
When the storm water utility fees were budgeted, they replaced some
General Fund activities and added some funding for services not
previously budgeted. Within the Public Works budget, General Fund
money for Drainage Maintenance and BMP Inspections (total of
$2,804,399) was replaced with revenue from fees. At the same time,
costs for SPSA disposal fees, street lighting and roadway
resurfacing (all supported by General Fund) increased $1,994,122.
Assuming no other cost increases or decreases had occurred, General
Fund support should have decreased from FY 1992-93 to FY 1993-94 by
$810,277 which is the difference between the increases and
decreases. However, the General Fund support actually was reduced
an additional $918,286 which was possible because of manpower
reductions, cost efficiencies and some reduced services.

There is not a direct Link between the General Fund money that was
replaced by the Storm Water Utility fees and services other than
those described above. During budget preparation, the General Fund
money was assumed available to fund any of the functions normally
supported by the General Fund.
The Storm Water Utility fees also replaced $470,113 of CIP staffing
costs related to Program Management. Additional services funded
with the fees included $217,121 for customer service and $60,507
for assistance from the Treasurer i~. receiving and processing
payments. The remaining $1,297,705 paid for reimbursements for
General Fund support, debt service, and reserve accounts.
$ 918,286
ATTACllMENT 3
How was the cost benefit analysis prepared to determine that some
services could be performed with less expense by "in house"
personnel than by contract?
Information was requested on the process used to compare costs and
distribute work between city staff and contractor forces.
Contractors unit prices for performing various items of work are
reasonably well known from competitive bids on past and present
contracts. Where contractor price information is not available for
a certain type of work inquiries are made, as necessary, to obtain
that information. Certain types of maintenance and repair work are
routinely prepared for contractor performance. This includes any
work that exceeds the manpower and equipment capabilities of city
staff such as: pile driving, major excavation requiring shoring
and well-pointing, pond and canal dredging and other specialized
work. In addition, work orders that are within the capabilities of
staff, and may even be less expensive to do by staff, are
nevertheless frequently performed by contract when the commitment
of limited available resources would be too extensive. For
example, lead ditch maintenance can generally be done more
economically by city staff, however, given the current backlog of
approximately 1,500 work orders,.the commitment of limited in-house
resources for the length of time required to clear such a single
work order is not efficient. Omitting the large, specialized
contracts such as dredging, oil-water separator maintenance,
spillway repairs, etc., the average cost of the routine work orders
performed by contract is approximately $10,400.
Unit costs for performing work by city staff are well established
and adjusted annually. The equipment costs are established by the
Virginia Department of Transportation and form a part of the basis
for the $2.3 million annual reimbursement from the state. The
authorized equipment rates include vehicle maintenance (repair
parts and labor), fuel and depreciation. Similarly the staff labor
costs include all normal fringe benefits and acceleration. Material
costs are updated annually and are based on actual purchases. Not
included in city staff unit costs are general overhead expenses
such as: building and grounds maintenance, janitorial service,
computer maintenance, telephone services, clerical support,
management salaries and other typical home office expenses. These
are considered unavoidable costs and would not vary significantly
depending upon a contract versus in-house work performance
decision. Consequently, only avoidable city costs are considered
when analyzing the benefits oi contracting over city staff
performance for new or expanded maintenance services or for the
continuance of existi~ services. The average work order performed
by city staff requires $658 and 24 mankours to perform.
The day to day, work order by work order, decisions concerning
performance by city staff or contractor do not require much
analysis or consideration. Decisions are made based upon commonly
held knowledge of the relative costs of ~erforming the various work
activities by city staff or contractor. For example, small cave-in
'repairs requiring only a few crew hours to complete are generally
performed by in-house staff because contractors' pricing shows that
ATTACHMENT 3 (cont)
they cannot profitably mobilize their personnel and equipment for
such small projects. Conversely, contractors prices are known to
be very competitive for larger cave-in repairs requiring
specialized heavy equipment, larger crew sizes, plans and
specifications and several days or weeks for completion. For
medium size cave-ins, frequently the decision to perform work by
contract is driven by the availability of staff and equipment
rather than by any economic advantage offered by the contractor.
The basis for these day to day work allocation decisions changes
constantly. As new contracts are advertised and awarded and new
contract pricing data becomes available the decision process may
shift in favor of/or against doing more of a certain type of work
by contract. New and innovative contracts and process improvements
are currently being tested in an attempt to obtain more competitive
pricing from our area contractors.
Recently the Finance Department assisted Public Works in comparing
contract versus in-house pricing for four different work
activities. The objective was to provide comparative information
that would help with outsourcing decisions. The four work
activities examined were: (1) cleaning oil/water separators, (2)
roadside ditch maintenance, (3) expanding leaf removal service and,
(4) Off-road ditch maintenance. The outsource studies are attached
for information. The result of these cost comparison studies
supported: (1) continue to contract oil/water separator
maintenance, (no significant savings), (2) retain roadside ditch
maintenance in-house (60% savings), (3) retain leaf cleaning in-
house, if service is expanded (50% savings) and, (4) retain off-
road ditch maintenance in-house (200+% savings).
Similar cost comparison and outsourcing studies will be conducted
in the future in an effort to constantly update our pricing data.
Investment incentive program opportunities will also be examined.
For example, an initial analysis of the potential for development
of an in-house lake and pond dredging capability, as an investment
incentive program, could generate a payback period of less than one
year and should generate savings of $2.5 million over the next five
year maintenance program. Further analysis of this and other cost
saving opportunities will be developed l.n the future.

Leaf Removal ( CurrentJy done In- House )
File: STRMFD1B.WK3
Description: This Task is for the removal of fallen leaves from roadside ditches using a
VAC-ALL Leaf Removal truck. Currently 2.37 miles of ditches are cleaned
annually. Additional ditch cleaning is needed ae described below.
Three heavily treed neighborhoods with 20 miles of ditches need to be
cleaned to insure an obstruction free water flow.
1..Shadowlawn
2. Avalon Terrace
'3. Bellamy Manor
Performance estimate:
1,000 fi/day pace ( assume 10 hour day )
or 100 Ft / Hour
After every 3.,000 Ft., Dumping required
Dumping trip takes approx 1.5 Hrs.
20 miles of ditches = 105,600 ft.
105,600 ft. / 1000 ft / Hr = 1,056 Hours ditching time for one cycle
105,600 ft. / 3000 ft / Dump Freq X 1.5 Hfs / Dump run = 52.8 Hours dumping time
Total ditching and dumping time required per 20 miles = 1,108.8 Hrs.
1,109 Hfs/40 Hr Wk = 28 Weeks per cycle
28 Wks / 52 Wks per Yr -- 54 % available time per cycle

ITEM # 38555
Robert J. Scoff, Director of Planning, advised the ,~mtkamt~rn Expro~way was establi~ed as one of
the City'~ top priorttla. In order to accommodate the City'~ transportation need~, the strategy of
wcln~ding ~s~ng arterials lu~ significant limits Lc. envi~l constraints, impacts of displacemen~
~ ,~aA~a~trn Exl~rtstway is a major step toward a tmdit-tmnl~ approach to dealing with
tran~ needs. ~ F_,rprersway includes a light rah tarrtdor and one for HOV tro~al. This project
is consistent with the Comprehensive Plan and Environmental Protection initiatives. The following four
agencies have concurred and signed the Statement of Purpose and Ne~d: Environmental Protection
~ncy, U.~. Fid~ and W"ddttfe Service, the Corps of Engineen and tAe Natural Marine and Fisheria
Service.
Arthur Collins, Executive Director - Hampton Roads Planning District Commission, advised the
5oath~..sttrn ~y is an integral part of Chesapeake's circulation rystem and effects the Cities of
Norfolk, Portsmouth and Suj~ollc The Oak Gro~e Connector is an element of the Sonthtartern
Ex~r~tm~tty. The Kr. press~ay provides another option for getting to Virginia Beach.
Chris M. l, loy~ F~ce President - Maguire Group, Inc., advised, for the first time in Virginia, the
aforementioned Federal Resource Agencies have been brought together. Therefore, the process has been
combined. The l. oc~i_on Public Hem'ing next week will not just be sponsored by the Virginia Department
of 7)'ansportatton, but also by the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers, as pan of the public interest review for
the permit process. It is envisioned with this process, not only will there be an acceptable environmental
document addressing the impacts and mitigation associated, but also a p~rmit will be in hand. Two other
major legislative initiatives are the Clean /Jr Amendments of 1990 atul tat Inner Modal Surface
lhm.wo~n F_~iency Act of 1991 (ISTEA). Both the Clean ,4~r /lmendments and ISTEA have
changed the playing field for major projects. Mr. Lloyd displayed the Typical Transportation
D~,dopment Sections ffootprinO of the Southeastern Expressway. There is a mitigation package, which
should address and minimize impacts. Direct impacts to w~land$ consume anywhere from 270 to 350
acres. There will be mitigation for direct impacts to wetiands, and there will be n~tt'~ation on site within
the same drainage shed. There will also be mitigation associated with the relocation of residences and
cultural resource impacts. There will be an assessment and an inventory of secondary and cumulative
iml~cts associated with natural resources for the Soatheastern Exprexsway. A habitat evaluation
program will be utilized to assess functions and values of habitat throughout the corridor Seventeen
indicated species were evaluated throughout SoutAeastem Virginia to determine the nature of the habitat
that would be disturbed by the SoutAeastern Expre~y alternatives. These assessments will be utilized
to assist in the evaluation and development of a mitigation site. V'DOT will also be involved in
consultation with U.S. Fish and W~ldiife Service for impacts. Probably the most significant elements of
the environmental paclmge will be a Preservation and Conservation Component for Stumpy Lak~t and
adjacent environs. Some method of enhanced coordination between Virginia Beach, Chesapeake and the
Resource Agencies will be reviewecL
