0 NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT ORDAINED BY THE COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF VIRGINIA BEACH,
1 VIRGINIA:
12 1. That it is hereby determined to be necessary and expedient for the City to construct and improve
13 various public facilities and make general improvements, all of which will promote the public welfare of the City and its
14 inhabitants and will facilitate the orderly growth, development, and general welfare of the City, and to finance the costs
15 thereof through the borrowing of up to $63,800,000 and issuing the City's general obligation bonds therefor.
16
17 2. That, pursuant to the City Charter and the Public Finance Act of 1991, there are hereby authorized
18 to be issued general obligation public improvement bonds of the City in the maximum amount of $63,800,000, to
19 provide funds, together with other funds that may be available, for various public improvement projects, including
?0 School, Roadway, Coastal, Economic and Tourism, Building, and Parks and Recreation projects, for project activities
?1 that include, but are not limited to, the following: preliminary studies and surveys, permit compliance, environmental
?2 assessment, planning, design, engineering, site acquisition, relocation of residents, utility relocation, construction,
?3 renovation, expansion, repair, demolition, site improvement, site work, legal services, inspection and support services,
?4 furniture and equipment, and contingencies.
?5

?7 combined with bonds authorized for other purposes and sold as part of one or more combined issues of public
?8 improvement bonds.
?9
30 4. That the bonds shall bear such date or dates, mature at such time or times not exceeding 40 years
31 from their dates, bear interest, be in such denominations and form, be executed in such manner and be sold at such

10 of general obligation public improvement bonds. Therefore the City shall issue no more than $59,800,000 of general
11 obligation public improvement bonds based on the May 9, 2006 authorization.
12
13 7 6. That the City Clerk is directed to make a copy of this ordinance continuously available for

and premium, if any, and interest on the bonds as the same become due and to provide a margin of safety therefor.
Such resolutions and agreements shall also include such additional covenants, agreements, and other terms as are
customary for the protection of the holders of water and sewer revenue obligations.
6. That the City Clerk is directed to make a copy of this ordinance continuously available for inspection by the
general public during normal business hours at the City Clerk's office from the date of adoption hereof through the
date of the issuance of the bonds.
