The City Manager introduced Barry Frankenfield, Administrator — Parks and Recreation, to present specific recommendations re the Green Ribbon Initiative. Mr. Frankenfield recognized the members of the Implementation Committee. Citizen Members Peter Schmidt, Co-chair Jeffrey W. Ainslie Billy Almond Eddie Bourdon Craig Cope Andrew Fine Karen Forget Noah Hill June Barrett McDaniels Wayne McCoy Karen Forget, representing Lynnhaven Now, was in attendance. Staff Members Steve Herbert, Executive Sponsor Bill Johnston Clay Bernick Karen Lasley Meredith Ching Richard Lowman Barbara Duke Bill Macali Barry Frankenfield Pam Matthias Melanie Grissom Joanne Moore Charles Heffington Carolyn Smith Charles Hassen Kristina Villaire Kay Wilson Mr. Frankenfield stipulated the Work Plan: Recommendations have been categorized into phases to be addressed in an Eighteen -(18) month time frame. Each phase of work will be brought forward to City Council for review, approval and adoption if necessary. History • Phase 1 Briefing — City Council July 8, 2008 • Staff Monthly Meetings, 3 `full" Committee Meetings • All Phase 1 Items have been completed • Phase 1 Ordinances on November 25, 2008, Council Agenda November 25, 2008 -3 - CITY MANAGER'S BRIEFING GREEN RIBBON INITIATIVE ITEM # 58265 (Continued) Phase 1 - Ordinances • Ordinances — November 25, 2008, Council Agenda • Residential Right -of -Way • Site Stabilization • Prohibition of Feeding Wildlife • Residential Right -of -Way: • Remove the requirement of sixty -(60) foot' right-of-way, thirty -six - (36) foot' paved section for minor residential streets Mr. Frankenfield advised it was extremely difficult to go back and retrofit any existing residential streets. It will not affect existing residential streets. The goal is to continue with the standard utilized and not expand it, thereby reducing impervious service and improving water quality. The City Manager advised the standard for many years has been a fifty -(50) foot' right-of-way and thirty (30) foot' pavements. This is only an amendment to the City Code to remove the old reference. Karen Lasley, Zoning Administrator, advised the new subdivisions would have sidewalks and a doublewide driveway. • Site Stabilization: • No occupancy permit without stabilization such as sod, seeding blankets and/or matting Staff is requesting the site stabilization ordinance be DEFERRED one week (December 2, 2008) to continue discussions with the Tidewater Builders Association. • Prohibit Feeding of Wildlife • Prohibition on PUBLIC property only • Posting of signs required — Mount Trashmore Park only site currently planned • Maximum fine Fifty Dollars ($50) • Part of a larger/long term wildlife management program This proposed Ordinance has been supported by the SPCA (Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals)) and PETA (People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals). Mr. Frankenfield advised there are signs at Mount Trashmore, but the are not enforceable. There have been six (6) repeat offenders in different locations throughout the City. Mr. Frankenfield advised there was earlier opposition to this Ordinance. However, by making this Ordinance affect public property only, the opposition seems to have been resolved. Mr. Frankenfield suggested continued education.

ITEM # 58266 Tom Leahy, Director of Public Utilities, gave a history of Uranium Mining in Virginia: • 1973-78: Uranium prices create push to mine uranium in the Piedmont of Virginia • 1979-82: Three Mile Island and UMTRCA (Uranium Mining Tailings Radiation Control Act) sensitize public to radiological pollution • 1983: Virginia General Assembly enacted Moratorium on uranium mining • 1985: Virginia Coal and Energy Commission (VCEC) formed the Uranium SubCommittee and an Uranium Administrative Group (US/UAG) which recommended lifting the Moratorium. Virginia Beach and other localities adopted resolutions in opposition. The z,oratorium remains in effect today. Uranium Mining in Virginia: 2007-08 • Skyrocketing uranium prices renew interest in uranium mining in Virginia • Deposits in Pittsylvania County may be very large, worth as much as $7-10 BILLION • A Canadian Company, doing business as Virginia Uranium Ltd., is created to "invest and actively participate in the management, business and operations of Virginia Uranium Inc." through its representation on the board and its shared management with Virginia Uranium, Inc. • Virginia Uranium is conducting a Public Relations and Lobbying Campaign to have the uranium mining Moratorium lifted • In the 2008 the General Assembly, SB525 proposed the Virginia Mining Commission and a study of uranium mining impacts. It did not become law. • Earlier this month, the Virginia Coal and Energy Commission (VCEC) formed a subcommittee and asked the Virginia Center for Coal and Energy Research (VCCER) to contract for a study on the impacts of uranium.

Councilman Villanueva suggested a City Council Member or Tom Leahy be a participant in the study by becoming a member of the board. Mr. Leahy is concerned if Virginia Beach might be a minority voice on this Board. Mr. Leahy referenced an e-mail signing scoping comments should be prepared quickly for submission to the Subcommittee. The City Manager advised the Water Task Force has conducted a couple of meetings relative this subject. There was also one meeting conducted with the Virginia Uranium Mining interests. Mayor Oberndorf became active in the Virginia Municipal League upon first being elected to City Council. Mayor Oberndorf and a member of the City Council in Fredericksburg, joined with an alliance from Orange County encouraging the Virginia Municipal League to OPPOSE lifting the Moratorium on Uranium Mining. Lake Gaston needs to be protected. Without Lake Gaston, Virginia Beach would not be the City it is. Council Lady Wilson advised she contacted Mike Amyx, Executive Director - (VML) — Virginia Municipal League, requesting he contact Dr. H. Lee Cantor, Cardiologist in Virginia Beach and President — Virginia Beach Medical Society. He was accompanied by Andrew Lester — Pittsylvania County, who spoke during the Open Mike Session, on October 7, 2008, relative the details concerning lifting the ban on Uranium Mining and their public health concerns. Mr. Amyx is very concerned with this issue. This presentation needs to be shared with others. Council Lady Henley advised the Water Task Force recommendation should be "strongly" worded and based on science, as this topic (uranium ruining) is a long term safety and welfare issue. Resolution to OPPOSE uranium mining in the Commonwealth of Virginia unless and until an unbiased, conclusive study can demonstrate no significant release of radioactive sediments downstream Shall be scheduled for the City Council Session of December 2, 2008. November 25, 2008 - 11 - CITY COUNCIL COMMENTS 4:20 P.M. ITEM # 58267 Mayor Oberndorf congratulated the new bridegroom, Councilman John E. Uhrin, and wished he and Kathy great happiness for many years. ITEM # 58268 Council Lady Henley referenced the FIVE-YEAR FORECAST (FISCAL YEARS 2010 THROUGH 2014) presented at a Joint Workshop of the Virginia Beach City Council and School Board. Catheryn Whitesell, Director — Management Services, had advised this Forecast was difficult due to the turbulence in the overall economy. The Forecast depicts a substantial deficit driven predominately by lower revenues, not rising costs. • The FY 2010 Deficit City Schools $ 38.3 $ 42.9 Total Deficit: $ 81.2 Council Lady Henley advised City Council should be given more information for their critical decisions that will be necessary over the next two (2) City Council Sessions. The City Council is still concerned re the current budget year. Council Lady Henley referenced the memorandum of November Seventh re the 2009 State Budget reductions and quoted a particular section: "For all State employees, the Governor has delayed the FY 2009 pay increase that was scheduled for December 2008 until next July. (Note: that with the exception of the Sheriff's and Clerk of the Court's employees, all other Constitutional Officer employees receive City pay raises not State. In the case of the Sherff's Office employees, their pay raise was advanced by City Council from December 2008 to July 2008 at the recommendation of the Sheriff)" Council Lady Henley inquired if they are not now going to receive the pay raises from the State until July 2009, does that mean the City Council will be expected to fund the next six (6) months. The City Manager advised the first five (5) months were paid and the staff is trying to equate the implications. Does that mean the raise by City Council is rescinded for the last seven (7) months of the year? Monthly reports are being received from various Departments to achieve the 1.25% reduction over all the City. Only two (2) Departments have not reported to -date. The City Departments are encouraged to save 1.25% of their current appropriations. Council Lady Henley inquired relative the decrease in gasoline and if this would affect the 18 %z% fuel adjustment from Dominion Power. The City Manager advised confirmation of Transportation funding. The Governor 's Budget is scheduled for December 17, 2008. November 25, 2008 - 12 - CITY COUNCIL COMMENTS ITEM # 58268 (Continued) David Hansen, Assistant City Manager, advised the October 2008 Interim Financial Financial Statements will be distributed November 26, 2008. The Annual Audit is now occurring. This should provide a good understanding of the expenditure rate. Departmental expenditures are 37.9% expended, which is the same ratio as the prior year, indicating that the City departments are continuing to control costs. The trend also indicates that reduced expenditures will be able to meet our self-imposed 1.25% budget reduction. A quarterly report will be provided concerning the 1.25% reduction in January. Energy meetings have been conducted relative the jointly shared buildings. A test lighting replacement in the City's Treasurer's oIce is now being conducted and recommendations will be provided. Relative the Schools Reversion Funds of $33.1 -MILLION, and allocation of some of this funding, the City Manager advised the Virginia Beach School Board wishes to utilize 25% of this funding for typical needs at the end of the year i.e. buses. The other 75% of the funding would be reverted back into their Reserve Fund. The City Manager needs assurances this would only be used for one time expenditures or placed in the Reserve Fund, City Council adopted this Policy several years ago which requires a two- thirds vote of Virginia Beach City Council and the School Board for access to these funds. This vote will be scheduled for the School Board on December 2, 2008, and Virginia Beach City Council on December 9, 2008. Robert Matthias, Assistant City Manager, advised last week the Commonwealth Transportation Board last week received a Briefing and they are now reviewing another 60% cut. The new six-year plan should be received in December. The Federal funds corning to the State is actually being reforecast. The City Manager and staff have been trying to prepare for a possible Federal stimulus package. Some potential projects will be identified. Relative the strategic map with the City Council's goals and visions placed on the City's website, Mr. Hansen referenced a meeting will be conducted with Lyle Sumek, Facilitator, Monday, December 1, 2008, to prioritize. This information will be forwarded for City Council's review and then posted. The City Manager will forward topic suggestions for Workshop discussions to City Council for their consideration.

PUBLIC HEARING - 22 - ITEM # 58276 Mayor Oberndorf DECLARED A PUBLIC HEARING: AMENDMENT TO §30-59 OF THE CITY CODE re Erosion and Sediment Control The following registered to speak: Claudia Cotton, represented the Tidewater Builders Association, 2117 Smith Avenue, Chesapeake 23320, Phone: 420-2434, congratulated the Green Ribbon Initiative. The building industry has seen a growing acceptance of "green" building products in the market and Tidewater Builders is happy to be involved in this initiative. A new Green Building Council has commenced this year and Mrs. Cotton invited Members of City Council to attend. Relative the Amendment to §30-59 of the City Code, Ms. Cotton requested the City Council continue to incorporate flexibility for the Building Official to issue temporary Certificates of Occupancy if conditions prohibit site stabilization. Otherwise, Tidewater Builders is in agreement with the Ordinance. There being no further speakers, Mayor Oberndorf CLOSED THE PUBLIC HEARING. November 25, 2008 Item V H.2. PUBLIC HEARING - 23 - ITEM # 58277 Mayor Oberndorf DECLARED A PUBLIC HEARING: TAX INCREMENT FINANCING (TIF) Central Business District (CBD) Northeast Tax John McMullen, 504 Ben Hogan Drive, Phone: 499-3799, thanked Mayor Oberndorf and Council Lady McClanan for their years of service and complimented their intellect and knowledge. Mr. McMullen offered a suggestion and solution as he does not agree with extending the TIF across Virginia Beach Boulevard and bringing the existing line down. The City would be better served by moving the existing line to the other side. The individuals who will use the bridge should pay the cost. Sam Reid, 1533 Virginia Beach Boulevard, Phone: 284-1067, registered in OPPOSITION. Pembroke Mall has not made an actual commitment. This item should be deferred for six (6) months until the formulation of the Operating Budget, which would reflect available funds. Once the TIF is created, funds will be taken from the General Fund. Mr. Reid was also concerned relative the $3 -MILLION cost. Mr. Reid suggested a Special Service District instead of the TIF as another vehicle to provide the funding. Glen Huff, President of Central Business District Association, 2133 Windward Shore Drive, Phone: 481- 0589, registered in SUPPORT of the TIF. Mr. Huff cited the three (3) main reasons: economic, as the TIF encourages private industry to invest substantial dollars (which is being contemplated with this particular TIF); this pedestrian bridge is greatly needed for safety; and, finally the Vision (for more than two (2) decades the City of Virginia Beach has had a vision to create the City's -soul" in the Central Business District, composed of four (4) quadrants that would be connected in a pedestrian friendly way). The infrastructure would be provided without creating a burden on the taxpayers. Martin Waranch, 111 6611' Street, Phone: 491-3343, registered in OPPOSITION. Mr. Waranch is concerned, as a citizen, that conditions are not suitable now for this City to incur additional obligations. Mr. Waranch urged consideration of other economic problems. There being no further speakers, Mayor Oberndorf CLOSED THE PUBLIC HEARING. The City Manager responded to nine (9) points contained in the Virginian -Pilot Editorial appearing this past weekend re Tax Increment Financing. The editorial staff indicated strong support of the Town Center in the past, but "times have changed and Virginia Beach should not proceed with the project in a recession ". Times are changing and these buildings are not going to be built in the next few weeks. A three-year process is entailed to design and build Phase IV of Town Center. Hopefully, by that time, the economic cycle will have "turned". . The City Manager advised the project, being Town Center, has generated and will generate surplus revenues over $5 -MILLION per year. With completion of Phase IV, the increase would be approximately $7 -MILLION per year. This project creates employment and economic opportunity. This is the motivating purpose of the project, launched approximately ten (10) years ago. November 25, 2008 Item V -H.2. PUBLIC HEARING - 24 - ITEM # 58277 (Continued) Concerning the increased financial burden on the public, this comment indicates a lack of understanding concerning Tax Increment Financing (TIF). In a TIF District, the private sector invests and constructs the properties and only upon completion of the project does the Development Authority assume ownership. When the project is completed, the project is on the tax rolls and those taxes pay the cost for the debt service. Safeguards have been included in the three (3) previous phases of Town Center, coupling the TIF District with the Special Tax District and guaranteed payments by the Developers. Therefore, the financial burden to the public is not increasing. Phase IV contains an additional office high-rise, generating significantly less revenue than retail, restaurants and residential, which is the reason for the ratio of change in private dollars to public dollars as the previous investment in other phases of Town Center was higher. There would be a much higher private — to — public ratio if the residential and restaurant component "is all there is" in Town Center. When the office towers are introduced, significantly less revenue is generated than the residential. Therefore, it is important to add office space, so the Town Center serves as the economic engine for job creation in that portion of the City. The office tower has a much higher parking requirement, which is the public investment portion of the project. The overall ratio in the Town Center is still quite favorable. The Developers are providing their own financing. The City, through the Development Authority, is financing only the public parking, the building platform, the Conference Center expansion and the streetscapes, those public components of the project. Financing is not provided to the Developer. The Developer has to provide construction funding. If the public-private partnership were not in place, development would not occur. There would be no revenue generated to place in Schools, City services and capital projects. Space is not available to rent and will not be available for nearly three (3) years. The editorial coupled the $81 -MILLION budget shortfall with Phase IV in a very inappropriate way. Phase IV will assist in providing additional revenues. The City is not expending funds that are not available. Phase IV will provide the revenue required to retire the public debt, economic opportunity and shift the property tax burden off residential home owners to commercial property. Projects like Town Center are needed. Councilman DeSteph disagreed Phase I, the office Tower was a much higher ratio. The City is also guaranteeing two (2) floors of the new office building in a ten-year lease. The City Council was briefed relative the deficit during the Five Year Forecast. The City Manager advised there is no relationship between the deficit and the Phase IV project. Council Lady Henley requested an accounting of all of the City's TIFs (Tax Increment Financing) be provided. Clearly, economic development is important for the City. The citizens need to be advised. Councilman Villanueva requested the City Manager place, as one of the City's Hot Topics on the website, the methodology of Tax Increment Financing (TIF) to educate our citizens concerning the workings and benefits.

GPIN: COUNCIL ELECTION DISTRICT: SITE SIZE: Between 2426374893 and BEACH 375 square feet 2426376815 SUMMARY OF REQUEST The applicant requests the closure of the western 7.5 feet of a 15 -foot wide unimproved alley for the purpose of incorporating the right-of-way into their adjoining single- family residential lot. There have been several street closure requests granted along the subject alleyway during the past 15 years. The zoning history map toward the end of this report identifies the specific properties that were granted street closures for the alley. EXISTING LAND USE: Undeveloped alley SURROUNDING LAND North: South: East: USE AND ZONING: LAND USE AND ZONING INFORMATION • Single-family homes / R-10 Residential District • Single-family homes / R-10 Residential District • Across unimproved alley, single-family homes / R-10 THOMAS E.

AICUZ: The site is in an AICUZ of 65-70 dB Ldn surrounding NAS Oceana. IMPACT ON CITY SERVICES PUBLIC WORKS: A plat providing a private drainage easement shall be reviewed and approved by the City of Virginia Beach Public Works Department during detailed site plan review. WATER & SEWER: No objection. PRIVATE UTILITIES: Private utility companies indicate they have no facilities in the area designated for closure. Recommendation: Staff recommends approval of this request with the conditions below. EVALUATION AND RECOMMENDATION Comprehensive Plan: The Comprehensive Plan Map designates this area of the city as Primary Residential. The City's Comprehensive Plan states that the objective of the Primary Residential Area is to protect the predominantly suburban character that is defined, in large measure, by the stable neighborhoods of the Primary Residential Area. Evaluation: The portion of the alley proposed for closure is part of an undeveloped alley that runs north to south along the entire block. Other street closure requests similar to this request have been granted to homeowners within the same block. The Viewers determined that the proposed closure will not result in a public inconvenience; therefore, they recommend closure of the right-of-way. City Council adopted a policy aimed at disposing of undeveloped right-of-ways to adjoining property owners in the Croatan community. All funds generated from such closures are directed to a Croatan Beach Access account and ultimately the funds collected are to be used by the City to purchase additional public access to the beach in the Croatan area. The proposed street closure is recommended for approval with the following conditions. THOMAS E. COGHILL, SR. & NANCY I. COGHILL Agenda Item 7 Page 2 CONDITIONS 1. The City Attorney's Office will make the final determination regarding ownership of the underlying fee. The purchase price to be paid to the City shall be determined according to the "Policy Regarding Purchase of City's Interest in Streets Pursuant to Street Closures," approved by City Council. Copies of the policy are available in the Planning Department. 2. The applicant shall resubdivide the property and vacate internal lot lines to incorporate the closed area into the adjoining parcels. The plat must be submitted and approved for recordation prior to final street closure approval. 3. The applicant shall provide easements satisfactory to the utility company for any private utilities that exist within the right-of-way proposed for closure. 4. Closure of the right-of-way shall be contingent upon compliance with the above stated conditions within 365 days of approval by City Council. If the conditions noted above are not accomplished and the final plat is not approved within one year of the City Council vote to close the right-of-way this approval shall be considered null and void. 5. A drainage easement as required by the City of Virginia Beach Public Works Department shall be provided during subdivision plat review. NOTE: Further conditions may be required during the administration of applicable City Ordinances. Plans submitted with this rezoning application may require revision during detailed site plan review to meet all applicable City Codes and Standards. The applicant is encouraged to contact and work with the Crime Prevention Office within the Police Department for crime prevention techniques and Crime Prevention Through Environmental Design (CPTED) concepts and strategies as they pertain to this site.
