LAKE JAMES WATER QUALITY
ITEM # 58672
Councilman Dyer referenced the citizens of Lake James expressed concern during the Public Comment
Session on March Tenth, relative the water quality of Lake James, Councilman Dyer had requested Staff
give a Briefing on the Status of Lake James water quality.
David Hansen, Deputy City Manager provided the requested Briefing:
Purpose of Study
· Citizen concerns re water quality
· City Council Open Mike: March 10, 2009
· Old Dominion University (ODU) graduate student study
· High levels of nitrogen, ammonia and phosphorous
· Algae production
· Concerns with City and Hampton Roads Recycling Recovery Center (HRCC) landfills
City Actions
March 5, 2009, meeting with residents
· Public Works Operations begins canal maintenance
Malcolm Pirnie hired to analyze and provide interim recommendations
· Ongoing communication with residents
Ongoing communication with Department of Environmental Quality (DEQ)
· Ongoing communications with the Hampton Roads Recycling Recovery Center (HRRC)
Findings
· Ammonia and TKN (Total Kjeldahl Nitrogen) highest at City Landfill
· Confirms Old Dominion University and Department of Environmental Quality ( DEQ) findings
Hampton Roads Recycling Recovery Center (HRRC) discharge is a source
· No violations of water quality standards
· Algae in Canal
· Removing TKN (Total Kjeldahl Nitrogen) may not eliminate algae
· Weir allows water to pass through
· Poor flushing of lake
· Natural eutrophication process
The natural euthrophication process is the process by which a body of water becomes rich in nutrients
encouraging the growth and then it becomes the addition of oxygen depleting plant life and this could
result in harm to other organisms.
Mr, Hansen displayed maps which indicated Lake James Water Quality Assessment - Sampling
Locations, Summary of Surface Water Quality for Ammonia, Total Kjeldahl Nitrogen and Total
Phosphorus, VBS indicates Virginia Beach's landfill, Hampton Roads Recycling Recovery Center
(HRRC), is the area of Williams Pit.

CITY COUNCIL LIAISON REPOR TS
LAKE JAMES WATER QUALITY
ITEM # 58672 (Continued)
Previous Study
· Environmental Assessment of Lake James from 1999
Sources of eutrophication process were identified as nutrient input from:
· Inlet canal- was corrected with construction of wier
· Neighborhood runoff from lawns, gardens both directly and from stormwater
pipes
· Bird droppings
· Lack of nutrient fixating capacity in the lake, limited emergent vegetation - no
transition zone, bulkheading around the lake
A formal written report will be prepared by Malcolm Pirnie either the end of this week or beginning of
next analyzing each of the readings and establishing the benchmarks. None of the water quality
standards of monitoring are being violated
Interim Actions
Canal maintenance
· Maintenance of weir
· Silt curtain to deflect algae to bypass
· Clean up former Southeastern Public Service Authority (SPSA) mulching site
· Evaluate retrofit of yard waste infiltration pond
· Groundwater quality sampling at perimeter wells
Long Term Actions
Evaluate "health" of Lake James
Evaluate nutrient loading canal vs. other sources
· Evaluate differences between Lake James and Lake Christopher
· Answer "what is required to provide recreational water quality?"
Determine need for design changes to weir and/or canal
· Determine need for improvements at City Landfill
Neighborhood Expectations
· Water quality that allows Lake James to be used as a recreational amenity
· Elimination of algae
· City provide a clean water source to allow flushing of lake to maintain recreational water quality
When the Malcolm Pirnie report is received, the Health Department shall also speak relative the health
hazards and impact,

PLEDGE OF ALLEGIANCE TO THE FLAG OF THE UNITED STATES OF AMERICA
Mayor Sessoms DISCLOSED as an officer of TowneBank (which has a corporate office located at 297
Constitution Drive in Virginia Beach), he is directly and indirectly involved in many of TowneBank's
transactions. However, due to the size of TowneBank and the volume of transactions it handles,
TowneBank has an interest in numerous matters in which he is not personally involved and of which he
does not have personal knowledge. In that regard, he is always concerned about the appearance of
impropriety that might arise if he unknowingly participates in a matter before City Council in which
TowneBank has an interest. Mayor Sessoms also has similar concerns with respect to Prudential Towne
Realty, which is an affiliate of TowneBank. In order to ensure his compliance with both the letter and
spirit of the State and Local Government Conflict of Interests Act (the "Act''), it is his practice to
thoroughly review each City Council agenda to identify any matters in which he might have an actual or
potential conflict. If, during his review of an agenda, he identifies a matter in which he has a "personal
interest ", as defined by the Act, he will either abstain from voting, or file the appropriate disclosure letter
with the City Clerk to be included in the official records of City Council. Mayor Sessoms' letter of
March 24, 2009, is hereby made a part of the record.
Vice Mayor Jones DISCLOSED, for many years, he served on the Board of Directors of Resource Bank.
Three (3) years ago, Fulton Financial Corporation ("Fulton Financial'') purchased Resource Bank. On
March 31, 2007, Vice Mayor Jones retired from the Board of Directors. Although, he is no longer a
Board Member, he owns stock in Fulton Financial, and that stock ownership causes him to have a
"personal interest" in Fulton Financial. However, due to the size of Fulton Financial and the volume of
transactions it handles in any given year, Fulton Financial, or any of the banks that are owned by Fulton
Financial, may have an interest in numerous matters in which Vice Mayor Jones has no personal
knowledge. In order to ensure his compliance with both the letter and the spirit of the State and Local
Government Conflict of Interests Act, it is his practice to thoroughly review the agenda for each meeting
of City Council for the purpose of identifying any matters in which he might have an actual or potential
conflict. If, during his review, he identifies any matters, Vice Mayor Jones will prepare and file the
appropriate disclosure letter to be recorded in the official records of City Council. Vice Mayor Jones
regularly makes this disclosure. Vice Mayor Jones' letter of April 10, 2007, is hereby made a part of the
record.

Council Lady Rosemary Wilson DISCLOSED her husband is a principal in the accounting firm of
Goodman and Company and is directly and indirectly involved in many of Goodman and Company's
transactions. However, due to the size of Goodman and Company and the volume of transactions it
handles in any given year, Goodman and Company has an interest in numerous matters in which her
husband is not personally involved and of which she does not have personal knowledge. In order to
ensure her compliance with both the letter and the spirit of the State and Local Government Conflict of
Interests Act, it is her practice to thoroughly review the agenda for each meeting of City Council for the
purpose of identifying any matters in which she might have an actual or potential conflict. If, during her
review she identifies any matters, she will prepare and file the appropriate disclosure letter to be
recorded in the official records of City Council, Council Lady Wilson regularly makes this disclosure,
Council Lady Wilson's letter of January 27, 2004, is hereby made a part of the record
Council Lady Rosemary Wilson DISCLOSED she is a Real Estate Agent affiliated with Prudential
Decker Realty, Because of the nature of Real Estate Agent affiliation, the size of Prudential, and the
volume of transactions it handles in any given year, Prudential has an interest in numerous matters in
which she is not personally involved and of which she does not have personal knowledge. In order to
ensure her compliance with both the letter and the spirit of the State and Local Government Conflict of
Interests Act, it is her practice to thoroughly review the agenda for each meeting of City Council for the

Executive Summary
Housing Choice Voucher Program - 2009 Annual Agency Plan
Department of Housing and Neighborhood Preservation
The U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development ("HUD") requires
organizations that operate the Housing Choice Voucher program to submit a Five-Year
Plan ("Plan"), and an Annual Plan that updates progress on achieving the stated goals in
the Five-Year plan.
The Plan consists of a mission statement, long term goals and a series of strategies to
accomplish those goals. On a yearly basis, an agency is allowed to adjust the goals and/or
strategies. For example, DHNP modified the Plan last year to allow for the temporary
transfer of families from the Housing Choice Voucher program to a newly created Tenant
Based Rental Assistance program. In addition to goals and strategies, the Plan must
contain a description of:
Eligibility, selection and admissions policies, including deconcentration and wait
list procedures
Financial resources
Rent determination procedures
Operations and management
Grievance procedures
Self-sufficiency programs (FSS)
Civil rights certifications
Fiscal year audit
Housing needs for the area
Strategy for meeting housing needs
Progress in meeting mission and goals
Any significant amendment and substantial deviations or modifications
Any plan elements that have been revised since the last Annual Plan certification
A listing of the locations where key elements of the Plan can be found
Many of the above elements have already been reviewed and adopted by City Council
when Council approved an ordinance authorizing the City Manager to submit an
Administrative Plan for this program on February 24,2009.
The Annual Plan incorporates the Administrative Plan, and provides the additional plan
elements and certifications required annually by HUD.
The Annual Plan was made available for public review by advertisement on February 21,
2009. A public hearing on the Annual Plan will be held on April 7, 2009. In addition,
the Resident Advisory Board of the program, consisting of program participants,
reviewed the Annual Plan at a meeting on March 24, 2009. All comments received as a
result of these proceedings will be incorporated into the final submittal to HUD.
II
The approved Annual Plan must be electronically submitted to HUD no later than April
17,2009, which is the required seventy five (75) days before the beginning of the City's
fiscal year on July 1, 2010.

VIRGINIA RESOURCES AUTHORITY
- RESOLUTION-
APPROVING THE RESTRUCTURING OF CERT AIN OUTSTANDING BONDS
OF THE SOUTHEASTERN PUBLIC SERVICE AUTHORITY OF VIRGINIA AS
PROPOSED BY THE CHIEF ADMINISTRATIVE OFFICERS OF THE EIGHT
MEMBER JURISDICTIONS AND THE TERMS AND CONDITIONS OF SUCH
APPROVAL
April 14, 2009
WHEREAS, The Southeastern Public Service Authority of Virginia ("SPSA")
was created pursuant to the Virginia Water and Sewer Authorities Act by its member
jurisdictions (the "Owner Communities"), which are the Cities of Virginia Beach,
Norfolk, Chesapeake, Suffolk, Portsmouth, and Franklin, and the Counties of
Southampton and Isle of Wight; and
WHEREAS, SPSA is currently indebted to the Virginia Resources Authority
("VRA") in the amount of approximately $129 million on bonds issued for various
capital expenditures (the "SPSA Local Bonds"); and
WHEREAS, VRA has serious concerns regarding SPSA's ability to remain
current on the SPSA Local Bonds in light of SPSA's current financial condition unless
measures are taken to address SPSA's financial distress; and
WHEREAS, in anticipation of (i) the receipt of a proposal by or on behalf of
SPSA to restructure SPSA's outstanding debt, including all or a portion of SPSA Local
Bonds, and (ii) the likelihood that any such proposal would require VRA to increase its
and the Commonwealth of Virginia's risk exposure by increasing the amount of SPSA
debt held by VRA, on February 10, 2009, the Board of Directors of VRA (the "VRA
Board") adopted a resolution (the "February 10 Resolution") setting forth the minimum
requirements VRA would impose on SPSA and/or the Owner Communities as a
condition of such restructuring; and
WHEREAS, the Chief Administrative Officers of the Owner Communities have
presented to VRA's Executive Director and the Portfolio Risk Management Committee of
the VRA Board (the "PRMC") a proposal dated March 16, 2009, and entitled "Financial
Assistance Plan for the Southeastern Public Service Authority (SPSA)" (the "CAO
Proposal "); and
WHEREAS, the CAO Proposal advances a number of measures intended to
address SPSA's short- and long-term financial distress, including a proposal for VRA to
restructure certain outstanding SPSA debt; and
Active_8704187_2_Approving VRA Board Resolution re SPSAOOC
WHEREAS, the PRMC considered the CAO Proposal at its meeting on March
27, 2009, and adopted a resolution (the "PRMC Resolution") among other things to
recommend that the VRA Board approve the restructuring of certain outstanding bonds of
SPSA in accordance with the CAO Proposal with certain additional understandings (the
"Additional VRA Understandings"); and
WHEREAS, one of the Additional VRA Understandings requires the SPSA
Board and the governing body of each Owner Community to adopt a resolution
indicating its support of the CAO Proposal with the Additional VRA Understandings
prior to this meeting (the "Support Resolution Requirement"); and
WHEREAS, the SPSA Board and the governing body of each Owner
Community, except for the Cities of Chesapeake and Virginia Beach, have adopted
ordinances or resolutions (each a "Support Resolution") purporting to satisfy the Support
Resolution Requirement and a copy of each Support Resolution has been presented to
this meeting; and
WHEREAS, VRA's Executive Director, Bond Counsel and Financial Advisor
have advised the VRA Board that Support Resolutions presented to this meeting satisfy
the Support Resolution Requirement with respect to the SPSA Board and all of the
Owner Communities except for the Cities of Chesapeake and Virginia Beach; and
WHEREAS, VRA's Executive Director, Bond Counsel and Financial Advisor
have advised that the resolution adopted by the City Council of the City of Chesapeake
on April 7, 2009, does not satisfy the Support Resolution Requirement primarily because
it does not authorize the general obligation guaranty of the working capital lines of credit
to SPSA required under paragraph 5( d) of the PRMC Resolution; and
WHEREAS, due to scheduling constraints, the City Council of the City of
Virginia Beach has been unable to consider an ordinance to address the Support
Resolution Requirement until its meeting to occur on the evening of this date; and
NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED BY THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS OF
THE VIRGINIA RESOURCES AUTHORITY, THAT:
1. The VRA Board concurs with the PRMC in finding and determining
that VRA's approach to the challenges faced by SPSA and the Owner Communities is
consistent with the following guiding principles:
(a) Fulfilling VRA's fiduciary responsibility for outstanding debt and the
Commonwealth of Virginia's Moral Obligation pledge ("Fulfilling VRA's
Fiduciary Responsibility"); and
(b) Maintaining a spirit of a willingness to try to help if the Owner
Communities desired VRA to do so ("Trying to Help").
-2-
II I
2. The VRA Board concurs with the PRMC in finding and determining
that VRA's involvement in any SPSA debt restructuring plan should further the following
three objectives:
(a) Ensuring that SPSA can continue to provide service to the Owner
Communities under the existing use and support agreements and remain current
on its debt service payments ("Ensuring SPSA Continuity") ; and
(b) Providing adequate time to reform the SPSA business model,
including time to properly evaluate proposals to change SPSA facility ownership
or operations ("Providing Adequate Time for SPSA Reform"); and
(c) Providing cash flow relief to Owner Communities by facilitating the
establishment of lower tipping fees than SPSA currently has under consideration
("Providing Owner Community Cash Flow Relief').
3. The VRA Board expresses its gratitude and appreciation for all of the
effort that the CAO Proposal represents.
4. The VRA Board concurs with the PRMC in finding and determining
that (i) the CAO Proposal would have the effect of increasing the amount of SPSA debt
to be held by VRA and (ii) the CAO Proposal provides a reasonable basis for VRA to
continue discussions with SPSA and the Owner Communities even though the CAO
Proposal would not satisfy in every particular the minimum requirements set forth in the
February 10 Resolution.
5. In accordance with the PRMC's recommendation reflected in the
PRMC Resolution, the VRA Board approves VRA's participation in a restructuring of
outstanding SPSA debt in accordance with the CAO Proposal with the additional
understandings set forth in the PRMC Resolution and reproduced below (with the
substitution of the words "forbear" and "forborne" for the words "forgo" and "foregone"
used in paragraph 5( e) of the PRMC Resolution and the substitution of the phrase "by 12
noon EDT on April I?, 2009," for the phrase "prior to the meeting of the VRA Board on
April 14, 2009" used in paragraph 5(g) of the PRMC Resolution):
(a) That VRA would purchase up to $72 million in SPSA debt (the
"SPSA Restructuring Debt") to defease and restructure a portion of SPSA's
outstanding debt with the specific maturities to be restructured determined by
VRA in consultation with SPSA and the Owner Communities with the objective
of achieving approximately $15.2 million in debt service savings in FY2009 and
FY20 10; and
(b) That the SPSA Restructuring Debt will be guaranteed on a general
obligation basis by Portsmouth, Franklin, Isle of Wight and Suffolk and on a
moral obligation basis by Southampton with the share of the SPSA Restructuring
Debt to be allocated to each of the five Owner Communities to be as they deem
acceptable; and
-3-
II I
. .
(c) That the SPSA Restructuring Debt (i) be issued by SPSA as
guaranteed subordinate debt (that is, with a disposal system revenue pledge
subordinate to the revenue pledge securing SPSA's senior subordinate debt) and
(ii) that any obligation of SPSA to repay any of the tlve Owner Communities
guaranteeing the SPSA Restructuring Debt for payments under their guarantees be
subordinate to the SPSA Restructuring Debt; and
(d) That (i) Norfolk and Chesapeake will provide general obligation
guarantees of the working capital credit lines to SPSA (currently provided by
Wachovia Bank) in an aggregate amount not less than $17.2 million, it being
understood that the working capital credit lines and any obligation of SPSA to
repay Norfolk and Chesapeake for any payments under the guarantees will be
subordinate to the SPSA Restructuring Debt and that Norfolk and Chesapeake
will use their guarantees to ensure that these credit lines remain in place for
SPSA's benefit, and (ii) that the guaranteed working capital credit lines be in
place by May 15, 2009, which is the projected mailing date of the Preliminary
Official Statement for VRA's Spring 2009 Virginia Pooled Financing Program
issue; and
(e) That by May 15, 2009, Virginia Beach will adopt a resolution
agreeing to forbear receipt of its rebate due under the Ash Disposal Agreement
with SPSA during FY2009 and FY201 0, with SPSA's obligation to repay the
amounts forborne to be subordinate to the SPSA Restructuring Debt; and
(f) That SPSA will agree to close its senior bond resolution and issue no
more debt with a disposal system revenue pledge senior to SPSA's senior
subordinate debt; and
(g) That each of the governing bodies of the Owner Communities and the
SPSA Board will adopt a resolution indicating their support of the CAO Proposal
with the additional understandings set forth in this resolution by 12 noon EDT on
April!7, 2009; and
(h) That all of the governing bodies of the Owner Communities will take
the formal actions required to implement their respective guaranties as described
in the CAO Proposal and above prior to May 15, 2009; and
(i) That the SPSA Board will take all necessary formal actions required to
implement the CAO Proposal and above prior to May 15, 2009; and
G) That by May 15, 2009, VRA, SPSA and the Owner Communities will
cooperate to agree to (i) a reasonable additional bonds test for SPSA, (ii)
covenants ensuring that the proceeds of any sale of SPSA assets are equitably
applied to all outstanding SPSA debt and that the SPSA assets remaining after any
such sale are sufficient to support SPSA operations and provide for the payment
-4-

I
, .
of debt service on SPSA debt, and (iii) a fund balance policy for SPSA and
accompanying timelines to assure the timely accumulation of reasonably-sized
operating reserves.
6. The VRA Board concurs with VRA's Executive Director, Bond
Counsel and Financial Advisor in finding and determining that the Support Resolutions
presented to this meeting constitute satisfaction with the Support Resolution Requirement
with respect to the SPSA Board and all of the Owner Communities except for the Cities
of Chesapeake and Virginia Beach. If, in the judgment of VRA's Chairman and
Executive Director, the City Councils of the Cities of Chesapeake and Virginia Beach
have not satisfied the Support Resolution Requirement by 12 noon EDT on April 17,
2009, the approval of the CAO Proposal provided in paragraph 5 above will be null and
void and the Executive Director is directed to exclude the SPSA Restructuring Debt from
the upcoming issuance and sale of the Spring 2009 Virginia Pooled Financing Program
and not to undertake any other financing for the benefit of SPSA until after July 1, 2009.
7. The VRA Board concurs with the PRMC in finding and determining
that VRA's participation in a restructuring under the terms set forth in paragraph 5 above
is consistent with its guiding principles of Fulfilling VRA's Fiduciary Responsibilities
and Trying to Help; and will also further the objectives of Ensuring SPSA Continuity,
Providing Adequate Time for SPSA Reform and Providing Owner Community Cash
Flow Relief.
8. This resolution shall take effect immediately.

Dear Mayor and Council Members,
On your agenda for April 14, 2009, is an ordinance to fund the June 9, 2009
Democratic and Republican Party Primary Elections that have been ordered in
accordance with ~~ 24.2-516, 24.2-517, and 24.2-518. Typically the fiscal year
budget for the Voter Registrar's Office does not include funding for a primary
election. Therefore, we are requesting additional monies to cover these expenses.
Thank you for your continued support. Please contact me at 385-8683 or
pharring@vbgov.com if I can offer additional information or assistance.
Sincerely,
Edith M. "Pat" Harrington
V oter Registrar

CITY OF VIRGINIA BEACH
AGENDA ITEM
ITEM: An Ordinance to Appropriate Funds to the FY 2008-09 Department of Finance
Operating Budget to Meet STOP Program Contractual Obligations
MEETING DATE: April 14, 2009
. Background: The City has a contractual agreement with the Division of Motor
Vehicles (DMV) to collect the local vehicle registration fee. In addition, to aid in the
collection of local personal property taxes, if an applicant is delinquent, DMV will refuse
the renewal of the delinquent applicant's state and local vehicle registration. This
program is referred to as the "STOP" program. DMV imposes an administrative fee to
operate and enforce the program. The City incurs the cost and charges the
administrative fee back to the taxpayer along with payment of the delinquent taxes. The
STOP fee is a budget neutral arrangement. Actual revenues collected by the City match
the STOP expenditures to the State. To date, for FY 2008-09, 34,028 individual STOPS
have been placed, and $2,072,051 of delinquent personal property taxes have been
collected,
. Considerations: After the FY 2008-09 Budget was adopted, DMV initiated a
new contract and raised the administrative fee from $5 to $20. The original STOP
program was based on a $5 fee. With the increase in this fee, the STOP revenues and
expenditures are considerably higher than the budgeted amount. While the Treasurer
administers the contract and is responsible for delinquent collections, the expenditures
(remittance of fees collected) are reflected in the General Fund's budget. The higher
STOP fee requires an increased appropriation.
. Public Information: Public information will be coordinated through the traditional
Council agenda process.
. Recommendation: It is recommended City Council appropriate $375,000 to the
Department of Finance.
. Attachments: Ordinance
Recommended Action: Approval

existing overall Zoning Ordinance, the following reasonable conditions related to the
physical development, operation, and use of the Property to be adopted as a part of said
amendment to the Zoning Map relative and applicable to the Property, which have a
reasonable relation to the rezoning and the need for which is generated by the rezoning.
NOW, THEREFORE, the Grantor, for itself, its successors, representatives, assigns,
grantees, and other successors in title or interest, voluntarily and without any requirement
by or exaction from the Grantee or its governing body and without any element of
compulsion or quid pro quo for zoning, rezoning, site plan, building permit, or subdivision

Planning or his designee, for review and approval, prior to issuance of a building permit
for that building.
4. Further conditions may be required by the Grantee during detailed Site Plan
review and administration of applicable City Codes by all cognizant City agencies and
departments to meet all applicable City Code requirements.

Subdivision Ordinance of the City of Virginia Beach, Virginia, in force as of the date of
approval of this Agreement by City Council, which are by this reference incorporated
herein.
The above conditions, having been proffered by the Grantor and allowed and
accepted by the Grantee as part of the amendment to the Zoning Ordinance, shall continue
in full force and effect until a subsequent amendment changes the zoning of the Property

conditions be remedied, and (b) to bring legal action or suit to insure compliance with
such conditions, including mandatory or prohibitory injunction, abatement, damages, or
other appropriate action, suit, or proceeding;
(2) The failure to meet all conditions and restrictions shall constitute cause to
deny the issuance of any of the required building or occupancy permits as may be
appropriate;
(3) If aggrieved by any decision of the Zoning Administrator, made pursuant to
these provisions, the Grantor shall petition the governing body for the review thereof prior
to instituting proceedings in court; and

existence of conditions attaching to the zoning of the Property, and the ordinances and the
conditions may be made readily available and accessible for public inspection in the office
of the Zoning Administrator and in the Planning Department, and they shall be recorded

Heritage Aviation Gala, May 9, 2009, 4:00 - 7:00 P.M, Virginia Beach Airport - Military Aviation

Friends of Animal Control
Cindy Fie ish, 5216 Prestwick Street, Phone: 479-5232, represented Friends of Animal Control. She has
been a volunteer of approximately four (4) years. Over the years, Animal Control has experienced
numerous outbreaks of paTVovirus; however, this past outbreak was the worse and Animal Control was
closed since the middle of February. The facility was built in the early 1970's and it is impossible to
disinfect properly. The parvo disease and the parasites hide in the cracks and crevices. Ms. Fleish
requested a new building be funded this year.
Elaine Swarts, 5433 Hunt Club Drive, Phone: 473-3292, reiterated the comments of Cindy fleish and
advised the Shelter is now in compliance and has been with the State Veterinary Board and Department
of Agriculture for approximately one year. Information distributed is hereby made a part of the record.
Deborah Lankford, 1075 Red Oak Road, Phone: 463-6242, represented Friends of Animal Control. She
was a Virginia Beach School Teacher for forty (40) years, now retired The volunteers expend hours
attempting to make the facility more attractive. However, the Shelter has an antique system which re-
circulates the infected air.
The City Manager advised the design workfor the Animal Control Shelter has beenfunded in this coming
budget year.
