The two (2) Norfolk City columns reflect a lower amount, if the employees take the Personal Health Profile and the second column reflects the payments if the employees do not. This draft is hereby made a part of the record Councilman Diezel requested to view the Employee Plan because of the impact on the families. Councilman Diezel is still not clear relative GASB and the fear is a better plan will increase more enrollment and liability. Councilman Diezel has no idea what the Federal Government will do with the Health Care industry not what the impact to the City would be. Ms, Walston advised, because the City is one of the few self-insured, Virginia Beach has the option to provide the GASB payments through the Health Care fund as opposed to the Operating Budget. The other localities that are fully insured do not have a self insured health plan to draw the GASB payment. They are covering the GASB payment out of Reserves, Operating Budget or part of the premiums. There was some support for Councilman Davis's plan from the worliforce and Retirees re willingness to increase employee only, but this support was not overwhelming. In light of no pay increases, it was suggested to be reviewed in 2011. July 7, 2009 '.

Council Lady Wilson does not concur with this plan involving families and children. It might be beneficial to a single individual. Councilman DeSteph advised he would not support any plan increasing employee and child or children. Councilman Wood requested the region comparison sheet be completed and provided to all Members of City Council. This information shall be provided. Mayor Sessoms stressed maintaining the quality of life and City Council will discuss the City's major issues during the Retreat August 3/4, 2009.

The general contractor expects to be completed by July 17, 2009, except for interactive exhibit installation which is scheduled for July 13 to July 24, 2009.

INTRODUCTION The Public-Private Education Facilities and Infrastructure Act of2002, Va. Code Ann. ~~ 56- 575.1 to -575.16 (LNMB Supp. 2002) (the "PPEA"), grants a public entity the authority to create public-private partnerships for the development of a wide range of projects for public use ("qualifying projects") if the public entity determines that there is a need for a project and that private involvement may provide the project to the public in a timely or cost-effective fashion. The definition of "public entity" in ~ 56-575.1 of the PPEA includes, inter alia, any political subdivision of the Commonwealth. In order for a project to come under the PPEA, it must meet the definition of a "qualifying project." The PPEA contains a broad definition of qualifying project that includes public buildings and facilities of all types; for example: (i) An education facility, including but not limited to a school building (including any stadium or other facility primarily used for school events), any functionally related and subordinate facility and land to a school building and any depreciable pmperty provided for use in a school facility that is operated as part of the public school system or as an institution of higher education; (ii) A building or facility that meets a public purpose and is developed or operated by or for any public entity; (iii) Improvements, together with equipment, necessary to enhance public safety and security of buildings to be principally used by a public entity; (iv) Utility and telecommunications and other communications infrastructure; (v) A recreational facility; (vi) Technology infrastructure and services, including but not limited to telecommunications, automated data processing, word processing and management information systems, and related information, equipment, goods and services; (vii) Technology, equipment, or infrastructure designed to deploy wireless broadband services to schools, businesses, or residential areas, or (viii) Any improvements necessary or desirable to any unimproved locally- or state- owned real estate. Section 56-575.16 of the PPEA provides that a public entity (a "responsible public entity") having the power to acquire, design, construct, improve, renovate, expand, equip, maintain, or operate a qualifying project may not consider any unsolicited proposal by a private entity for approval of the qualifying project pursuant to the PPEA until the responsible public entity has adopted and made publicly available procedures that are sufficient to enable the responsible public entity to comply with the PPEA. Accordingly, these procedures (the - 3 - : I II ,I III Public-Private Educational Facilities and Infrastructures Act of 2002 Procedures "Procedures") have been adopted by the City Council (the "Council") as the governing body of the City of Virginia Beach (the "City"). II. GENERAL PROVISIONS A. Proposals 1. Pursuant to Section 56-575.4 ofthe PPEA, a proposal to provide a qualifying project to a responsible public entity may be either solicited from private entities by the public entity (a "Solicited Bid/Proposal") or delivered to the public entity by a private entity on an unsolicited basis (an "Unsolicited Proposal"). In either case, any such proposal shall be clearly identified as a "PPEA Proposal." 2. The requirements for any particular Solicited Bid/Proposal shall be as specified in the solicitation by the City for that particular proposal and shall be consistent with all applicable provisions of the PPEA. 3. Any Unsolicited Proposal shall be submitted to the City by delivering six complete copies, together with the required initial review fee as provided below in S IV(C), to the Purchasing Agent, Department of Finance, Purchasing Division, 2388 Court Plaza Drive, Virginia Beach, VA 23456. Other requirements for an Unsolicited Proposal are as set forth below in S IV. A working group may be designated by the City Manager to review and evaluate all unsolicited proposals. 4. The City may require that any proposal be clarified. Such clarification may include but is not limited to submission of additional documentation, responses to specific questions, and interviews with potential project participants. B. Affected Local Jurisdictions 1. The term "affected local jurisdiction" includes any county, city or town in which all or a portion of a qualifying project is located. 2. Any private entity submitting a Solicited Bid/Proposal or an Unsolicited Proposal to the City as the responsible public entity for a qualifying project must provide any other affected local jurisdiction with a copy of the proposal by certified mail, express delivery, or hand delivery within five (5) business days of submission of the proposal to the City. Any such other affected local jurisdiction shall have 60 days from the date it receives its copy of the proposal to submit written comments to the City and to indicate whether the proposed qualifying project is compatible with the affected local jurisdiction's local comprehensive plan, local infrastructure development plans, capital improvements budget, or other government spending plan. The City will consider comments received within the 60-day period prior to entering into a comprehensive agreement pursuant to the PPEA regarding the proposal. However, the City may begin or continue its evaluation of any such proposal during the 60-day period for the receipt of comments from affected local jurisdictions. - 4 - II I III Public-Private Educational Facilities and Infrastructures Act of 2002 Procedures C. Vire:inia Freedom of Information Act 1. Any confidential and proprietary information provided to a responsible public entity by a private entity pursuant to the PPEA shall be subject to disclosure under the Virginia Freedom ofInformation Act ("FOIA") except as provided by 9 56-575.4(G) of the PPEA. 2. To prevent the release of any confidential and proprietary information that otherwise could be held in confidence pursuant to 9 56-575.4(0) of the PPEA, the private entity submitting the information must (i) invoke the exclusion from FOIA when the data or materials are submitted to the City or before such submission, (ii) identify the data and materials for which protection from disclosure is sought, and (iii) state why the exclusion from disclosure is necessary. A private entity may request and receive a determination from the City as to the anticipated scope of protection prior to submitting the proposal. The City is authorized and obligated to protect only confidential proprietary information, and thus will not protect any portion of a proposal from disclosure if the entire proposal has been designated confidential by the private entity without reasonably differentiating between the proprietary and non-proprietary information contained therein. If a private entity fails to designate trade secrets, financial records, or other confidential or proprietary information for protection from disclosure, such information, records or documents may be subiect to disclosure under FOIA. 3. Upon receipt of a request from a private entity that designated portions of a proposal be protected from disclosure as confidential and proprietary, the City will determine whether such protection is appropriate under applicable law and, if appropriate, the scope of such appropriate protection, and shall communicate its determination to the private entity. If the determination regarding protection or the scope thereof differs from the private entity's request, then the City will accord the private entity a reasonably opportunity to clarify and justify its request. Upon a final determination by the City to accord less protection than requested by the private entity, the private entity will be given an opportunity to withdraw its proposal. A proposal so withdrawn will be treated in the same manner as a proposal not accepted for publication and conceptual-phase consideration as provided below in 9 IV(A)(l). 4. The City may withhold from disclosure memoranda, staff evaluations, or other records prepared by the City, its staff, outside advisors, or consultants exclusively for the evaluation and negotiation of proposals where (i) if such records were made public prior to or after the execution of an interim or a comprehensive agreement, the financial interest or bargaining position of the City would be adversely affected, and (in the basis for the determination is documented in writing by the City. Cost estimates relating to a proposed procurement transaction prepared by or for the City shall not be open to public inspection. 5. The City may not withhold from public access: (a) procurement records other than those subiect to the written determination of the City; (b) information concerning the terms and conditions of any interim or comprehensive agreement, service contract, lease, partnership, or any agreement of any kind entered into by the City and the private entity; - 5 - i i I III Public-Private Educational Facilities and Infrastructures Act of 2002 Procedures (c) information concerning the terms and conditions of any financing arrangement that involves the use of any public funds; or (d) information concerning the performance of any private entity developing or operating a qualifying transportation facility or a qualifying project. However. to the extent that access to any procurement record or other document or information is compelled or protected as required by law. then the City shall comply with such order. D. Use of Public Funds Virginia constitutional and statutory requirements as they apply to appropriation and expenditure of public funds apply to any interim agreement or comprehensive agreement entered into under the PPEA. Accordingly, the processes and procedural requirements associated with the expenditure or obligation of public funds shall be incorporated into planning for any PPEA project or projects. E. Avvlicability of Other Laws Nothing in the PPEA shall affect the duty of the City to comply with all other applicable law not in conflict with the PPEA. The applicability of the Virginia Public Procurement Act (the "VPP A") is as set forth in the PPEA. III. SOLICITED BID/PROPOSALS The procedures applicable to any particular Solicited Bid/Proposal shall be specified in the solicitation for that proposal and shall be consistent with the requirements of the PPEA and any other applicable law. All such solicitations shall be by issuance of a written Invitation to Bid ("IFB") or Request for Proposal ("RFP") within the meaning of those terms as used in the City of Virginia Beach Procurement ordinance. Any proposal submitted pursuant to the PPEA that is not received in response to an IFB or RFP shall be an Unsolicited Proposal under these procedures. Such Unsolicited Proposals include but are not limited to (a) proposals received in response to a notice of the prior receipt of another Unsolicited Proposal as required by the PPEA and provided for below in S IV(A)(2) and (b) proposals received in response to publicity by the City concerning particular needs when the City has not issued a corresponding IFB or RFP, even if the City otherwise has encouraged the submission of proposals pursuant to the PPEA that address those needs. The RFP or ITB will be posted in such public areas as are normally used for posting of the City's notices. including the City's website. Notices will also be advertised in Virf!inia Business Opportunities and posted on the Commonwealth's electronic procurement site as required by Virginia Code S 56-575.3:1(B)(11). In addition. solicited proposals will be posted pursuant to Section IV.A. The RFP or ITB should also contain or incorporate by reference other applicable terms and conditions. including any unique capabilities or qualifications that will be required of the private entities submitting proposals. Pre-proposal conferences may be held as deemed appropriate by the City. - 6 - : I I III Public-Private Educational Facilities and Infrastructures Act of 2002 Procedures IV. UNSOLICITED PROPOSALS The process for evaluating an Unsolicited Proposal, described in detail below, consists of fem five steps. Briefly summarized, upon receipt of an Unsolicited Proposal the City's first step will be to determine whether to accept it for consideration at the conceptual stage. If so, then in step two the City will give public notice ofthe Unsolicited Proposal, and allow for submission of other competing proposals. In step three the City will post conceptual proposals to provide the public with an opportunity to inspect the proposal. In step four the City will proceed with a review at the conceptual stage of the original Unsolicited Proposal and/or any proposal received in response to the public notice and accepted for consideration at the conceptual stage. Step fem five is an in-depth review at the detailed stage of the original Unsolicited Proposal and/or any proposal received in response to the public notice and accepted for consideration at the detailed stage. The City shall be afforded sufficient time as it deems necessary for complete review and evaluation of all proposals submitted; proposals shall remain valid and not revised, other than by the stated procedure, during this period. However, the City may, at its sole discretion, discontinue its evaluation of any proposal at any time. Furthermore, if the City determines that it is in the City's interest to do so with respect to any Unsolicited Proposal, the City may eliminate review at the conceptual stage and proceed directly to a review at the detailed stage. A. Decision to Accept and Consider Unsolicited Proposal: Notice 1. Upon receipt from a private entity of any Unsolicited Proposal accompanied by payment of any required fees, the City will determine whether to accept the Unsolicited Proposal for publication and conceptual-phase consideration, as described below. If the City determines not to accept the proposal at this stage, it will return the proposal and the accompanying initial review fee to the private entity. 2. If the City chooses to accept an Unsolicited Proposal for publication and conceptual- phase consideration, it shall give public notice of the proposal in accordance with the PPEA and shall specify a period of time not less than 60 days during which it will receive competing unsolicited proposals pursuant to S 56-575.4(A) of the PPEA. Although not required by the PPEA, at the discretion of the City such notice may be given consistent with the requirements for public notice as set forth in the Virginia Beach City Procurement ordinance. During the 60-day period for receiving competing Unsolicited Proposals, the City may continue to evaluate the original Unsolicited Proposal. 3. To ensure that sufficient information is available upon which to base the development of a serious competing proposaL representatives of the City familiar with the unsolicited proposal and the guidelines established by the City shall be made available to respond to inquiries and meet with private entities that are considering the submission of a competing proposal. The City shall conduct an analysis of the information pertaining to the proposal included in the notice to ensure that such information sufficiently encourages competing proposals. Further, the City shall establish criteria, including key decision points and approvals, to ensure proper consideration of the extent of competition from available private entities prior to selection. - 7 - ~ I I I III Public-Private Educational Facilities and Infrastructures Act of 2002 Procedures B.

Posting may also be on the Commonwealth's Department of General Service's web-based electronic procurement program commonly known as "eV A." 2. Nothing shall be construed to prohibit the posting of the conceptual proposals by additional means deemed appropriate by the City so as to provide maximum notice to the public of the opportunity to inspect the proposals. 3.
