Oberndorf called to order the CITY MANAGER'S BRIEFING re Towing in the City Council Conference Room, City Hall, on Tuesday, April 4, 2006, at 3:30 P.M. Council Members Present: Harry E. Diezel, Robert M. Dyer, Vice Mayor Louis R. Jones, Reba S. McClanan, Richard A. Maddox, Mayor Meyera E. Oberndorf, Jim Reeve, Peter W Schmidt, Ron A. Villanueva, Rosemary Wilson and James L. Wood Council Members Absent: None April 4, 2006 - 2 - MA YOR 'S COMMENTS 3:30P.M. ITEM # 55063 Mayor Oberndorf referenced a request from the United States Conference of Mayors on behalf of the Honorable C. Ray Nagin, Mayor - New Orleans, Louisiana. As a result of Hurricane Katrina, Mayor Nagin is requesting assistance from cities all over the United States re purchasing or sharing one or several pieces of various equipment one of which is lawn edgers. Mayor Oberndorf gave the list of all needed items to the City Manager. ITEM # 55064 The City Manager introduced, David Hansen, Chief of Finance and Technology, effective April 3, 2006. David will assist City Manager Spore by leading the development of the City's annual budget, its capital improvements program and all financial forecasting, analysis and management. David also will supervise Communications & Information Technology, including the Data Center, computer systems support and telecommunications. David holds a Master of Science Degree in Strategic Studies and Logistics from the Industrial College of the Armed Forces, a Master's Degree in Business Administration and Contracting from the Florida Institute of Technology, and a Bachelor of Science in Business Administration and Accounting from the University of Central Florida. David's career in financial and technology management has spanned nearly three decades. As the Chief Financial Officer for the u.s. Army's Training and Doctrine Command in Fort Monroe, he has held positions as CEO, Commanding Officer and District Engineer of the Army Corps of Engineers, Norfolk District; Director of Public Works for Fort Eustis and Fort Story; Senior Engineer Trainer for the Army's National Training Center in Fort Irwin, Calif; and Executive Officer to the Director of the Army's budget at the Pentagon. April 4, 2006 - 3 - C IT Y MANA G E R 'S B R IE FIN G TOWING ITEM # 55065 3:30 P.M. Charles W. Meyer, Chief Operating Officer, presented information concerning Towing in Virginia Beach: Problems and Solutions. The Resolution is to be referred to the Towing Advisory Board with an Ordinance AMENDING City Code Sections 21-422, 426, 429 and ADDING Section 21-422.1 and use of tow truck services to enforce parking restrictions on private property. This is scheduled for the Formal Session. This recommendation is requested by April 25, 2006. Mr. Meyer identified the two (2) types of tows: Consensual (entails accidents and breakdowns) and Non- Consensual (illegally parked vehicles). TOWING VOLUMES Summer 2005 (May-September) Non-Consensual 3201-Private 3782-Public Two Year Total Tows 2004-2005 37,744-Private 30, 852-Public 68, 596-Total PROBLEMS WITH NON-CONSENSUAL TOWS Tow operators only accept cash, and they require exact change Lack of Information Vehicle owners-especially tourists-may not know: Where their automobile has been towed Who to call for information Whether they need exact change Where to find an A TM LACK OF COURTESY BY TOW OPERATORS No Consequences for Rudeness TOW SURVEY PROCESS INADEQUATE Not all tow operators are forthcoming with survey forms Current database lacks precision needed to determine relevant trends Limited consequences for violations of City Code provisions and policies Current survey process is ineffective April 4, 2006 - 4- CITY MANA GER 'S BRIEFING TOWING ITEM # 55065 (Continued) Mr. Meyer cited the problems unique to Private and Residential Parking areas. P' L R 'd 'I P k' A rlvate ots eSI entza ar In!!. reas Predatory Cruising Inadequate Signage Property owners are not required to call and Signs lack information that might deter one specifically request that a vehicle be towed from parking illegally Blanket authorization allows tow companies to Signs do not advise cost of fine, tow or tow at will, even when the business served by the impoundment fees lot is closed. Inadequate Signage Signage in some lots not visible at every entrance Signs lack information on how to retrieve towed Vehicles State Law gives the City four (4) options with respect to Towing: The City may rely on the State to regulate all aspects of towing, including towing practices and fees The City may regulate towing practices, but let the State set fees The City may regulate towing fees, but let the State regulate towing practices; or The City may regulate both towing fees and towing practices Without Local Regulation A vehicle towed from Virginia Beach could be impounded in another city Lot owners would not be required to include the cost of the tow, name of business that owns the lot, and whether parking is restricted to certain persons, such as customers on lot signs Lettering on signs could be of any size, and signs could be made of any material Tow operators would not be required to notify police within 30 minutes of a tow, and failure to notify would not subject the tow operator to prosecution Mr. Meyer advised pending State legislation will enable localities to prohibit predatory cruising by requiring written authorization at the time the vehicle is towed. The Ordinance could curtail kickbacks by excluding anyone with a financial interest in the towing company from authorizing tows. This legislation will also establish a statewide Towing Board to regulate towing. April 4, 2006 - 5 - C IT Y MANA G E R 'S B R IE FIN G TOWING ITEM #55065 (Continued) The City currently maintains a database on all tows (whether private or public), which is maintained in the Office of Public Information. This office also has the ability to provide assistance to the callers: location of vehicle, cost to retrieve, types of payments accepted, the location of ATMs and taxi information. Public Information can also advise re obtaining a towing survey and lodge a complaint. This Summer, the Police Department is also proposing to implement a courtesy patrol (to assist visitors and individuals whose vehicles have been towed). Another tool available to the City is the Police Department's list of tow companies that are approvedfor police-directed tows. Only companies on the Police list may tow vehicles from public property, such as City lots, garages and residential parking permit areas. Given that approximately 'half of all tows during the Resort Season are from City property, exclusion from the list would likely financially impact tow companies. The Police would more aggressively use removal from the authorized tow list as an incentive for tow companies to be courteous to vehicle owners and to stringently comply with all requirements and regulations. The City can require all tow companies to provide change and require acceptance of credit cards for tows from public property as a condition for inclusion on the list. A contact number and Residential Parking Permit as well as deterrent information may also be added information to City sign age. Associate City Attorney Rod Ingram distributed a matrix of Towing Concerns and Proposed Solutions Concerns Private Lots Public Lots RPP Areas Accept cash only; no change Amend City Code to require tow 1.

Business that contract with towing companies will be informed of complaints April 4, 2006 - 6 - C IT Y MANA G E R 'S B R IE FIN G TOWING ITEM #55065 (Continued) Councilman Reeve suggested just ticketing the car rather than towing. The City Manager advised, as a parking ticket is only $35.00, individuals would abuse this to park as long as desired. Councilman Maddox referenced discussion with Associate City Attorney Ingram relative raising the cost of a parking ticket. If the offender is from out of State, the individual can simply "tear up the ticket ". In this instance, the City has no recourse. The City would not find it good business nor economically feasible to expedite the offender back to the City for the cost of the parking ticket. Councilman Villanueva suggested a citizen's program for those who patron the Oceanfront establishments. This program would provide permits to allow citizens to park the entire night. Mr. Meyer advised there is an option if the owner of a bar is advised by a client that they cannot drive, the owner of the bar can make contact with the police and make arrangements for driving the patron home and tagging the vehicle so as not to be towed. Mr. Meyer advised the "311" number for towing information does not workfrom a Cell Phone, only from a LAN Line. The phone number for the Public Information Office is 385-3111 and this number would be necessary from a Cell Phone. Council Lady Wilson suggested the idea of a "boot ", rather than towing of a vehicle, be reviewed. Associate City Attorney Kathy D. Rountree advised this option has been reviewed; however, due to the statistics re the number of tows, 'hundreds of boots would be required. Currently if a tow company were to collect $100 for an $85 tow, the individual would have the right to file a "cause of action" independently. The City could not intervene. Associate City Attorney Ingram advised, however, if the Towing operator does not provide change for the tow and the City's recommended ordinance is adopted, the City can prosecute. This would be a Class I Misdemeanor and would entail up to a year in prison with a fine of $2500. The City Attorney advised the RPP (Residential Parking Permit) has a towing provision because the neighborhoods have requested same. The parking fine could be substantially increased. However, the towing is important to these neighborhoods to remove the illegally parked vehicles. Council Lady McClanan requested information be provided relative the total funds generated by the towing companies. Associate City Attorney distributed an Alternate Version 2 of an Ordinance AMENDING City Code Sections 21-422, 426, 429 and ADDING Section 21-422.1 and use of tow truck services to enforce parking restrictions on private property which is scheduled for the Formal Session (eliminating the verbiage "Requested by Councilman Maddox" and including two (2) minor changes.

The City Manager shall inquire relative keeping the Coffee Shop open for breakfast and lunch. April 4, 2006 - 10- CITY COUNCIL COMMENTS 4:15 P.M. ITEM # 55068 Mayor Oberndorfreferenced attending the City Council Candidates' Forum on Monday April 3, 2006, at the Fountain Room - Taverna Restaurant. As she was leaving, two (2) members of the Real Estate Tax Assessment Task Force advised their report had included a request for a separate auditing firm to review the assessment process. They had not been advised if this has been accomplished. Council Members McClanan and Wilson were Liaisons to the Tax Assessment Task Force. Council Lady McClanan advised in the June 28, 2005, report to City Council by Chair Thomas Betz, the Task Force recommended a consultant be hired to review the process. An outside consultant might assist in establishing additional credibility with the public. Catheryn Whitesell, Director - Management Services, provided correspondence to Council Members McClanan and Wilson re the status of the recommendations of the Tax Assessment Task Force. The objective is to work with Jerald Banagan, Real Estate Assessor, to devise a Request for Proposal (RFP) of consulting firms to bid re a review of the assessment process encompassing independent studies of the commercial and residential process. This would be accomplished over the Summer. After that, City Council would be advised of the results of the study. Council Lady Wilson referenced the assessments this year encompassed more detailed information relative Tax Relief Programs than in previous years. Council Lady Wilson has received many favorable citizen comments. Last year, the Task Force discovered any new assessments with a real estate tax bill over a 5% increase (not just senior citizens) could be deferred, according to State Law, until the property was sold. The City does not have a local ordinance, but this could be established. Catheryn Whitesell advised further State legislation to clarifY this language has been passed, but at the present time has not been signed. Jerald Banagan advised this enabling legislation relative deferral has been present since the mid J 990 's and applies to both commercial and residential. Vice Mayor Jones inquired if a specific group (i.e. Senior Citizen) could be selected for the deferral. Mr. Banagan did not believe a specific group could be selected. The City Attorney and Management Services shall review and advise. Councilman Maddox referenced many citizen concerns of being assessed more than a 24% increase. There should be a baseline real estate tax bill increase across the board. ITEM # 55069 Mayor Oberndorf referenced signing correspondence to the Members of the General Assembly concerning returning the personal property tax (which had been curtailed) to the cities. The City Manager advised Virginia Beach bills in the Spring and if the State did not return this revenue to the City on a timely basis, the revenue would go into July (another fiscal year) and thus "throw" the accounting system off. Patricia Phillips, Director of Finance, advised this time last year the Personal Property tax reimbursement to localities should have been budgeted in FY 2006 instead it was pushed to FY 2007. The current plan is for the State to pay Virginia Beach in July, August and November. If the reimbursement is received beyond the fiscal year end, these funds cannot be utilized in the current year. Since the State does have a surplus, the State should consider paying the funds out of the current year instead of the following year. $270-MILLION is the Spring biller issue. April 4, 2006 - 11 - CITY COUNCIL COMMENTS ITEM # 55070 Councilman Dyer advised during the City Council Session of March 28, 2006, he referenced the meeting of the Fourth Precinct Citizens Advisory Council on Thursday, March 23, 2006. There were discussions relative the "gang markings" in the Glenwood area. The citizens brought photographs of the "markings" depicted on playground equipment, trees and fences. These "markings" must be removed expeditiously. Thus far, there have not been any removal efforts. Residents of the Glenwood community have advised of even more markings. The City Manager requested the location of all the markings and he will see that these will be removed. Vice Mayor Jones advised he would also provide information relative "gang markings" to the City Manager ITEM # 55071 Mayor Oberndorf referenced a telephone conversation with Delegate John J. Welch, IlL re polling City Council to determine favorability with the Regional Authority to tax and oversee road spending and the tolls. Mayor Oberndorf advised with City Council's concurrence, she will contact Delegate Robert Tata to arrange a meeting with City Council and the City's General Assembly representatives to discuss this legislation. The representatives will bring copies of this legislation. ITEM # 55072 Councilman Dyer referenced receiving a memorandum: "On Wednesday of this week at 2 minutes and 3 seconds after 1:00 in the morning, the time and date will be 01:02:03 04/05/06. This will be the first time and only time this will ever happen. " April 4, 2006 - 12 - AGE N DA REV I E W S E S S ION 4:33 P.M. ITEM # 55073 1.4.

The grant is administered through the Virginia Department of Historic Resources. ITEM # 55074 Ordinance to ADD Section 21-303.1 to the City Code re parking in space reserved for persons with disabilities. The City Attorney distributed this Ordinance and advised the City recently incorporated the State Traffic Code into the City Code by reference. The old City ordinance that addressed issues involving parking in spaces reserved for persons with disabilities was removed from the City Code. State Code Section 46.2- 1242 does not provide for additional late fees should the offender fail to pay the fine within the fourteen (14) days following the date the ticket was issued.

Rountree advised this Ordinance will allow the City Treasurer to continue increasing the fine for unlawfully parking in a space reserved for persons with disabilities from $150.00 to $250.00 This item shall be SCHEDULED for afuture Agenda ITEM # 55075 Ordinance to AMEND City Code Chapter 23 re abusing public property, including monuments, statues, etc. The City Attorney distributed this Ordinance to be ADDED to the Agenda.
