Sessoms, Jr., called to order the CITY COUNCIL/SCHOOL BOARD JOINT WORKSHOP re the FIVE YEAR FORECAST in the Conference Room of Building 19, Tuesday, November IS, 2011, at 3: 00 P.M. Council Members Present: Glenn R. Davis, William R. "Bill" DeSteph, Harry E. Diezel, Robert M. Dyer, Barbara M. Henley, Vice Mayor Louis R. Jones, John D. Moss, Mayor William D. Sessoms, Jr., John E. Uhrin, Rosemary Wilson and James L. Wood Council Members Absent: None School Board Members Present: Vice Chairman William J. Brunke, IV, Emma L. "EM" Davis, Chairman Daniel D. Edwards, Dorothy M. Holtz, Brent N. McKenzie, Ashley K. McLeod, Sam Reid and Patrick S. Salyer School Board Members Absent: Todd C. Davidson and Carolyn D. Weems November 15, 2011 -2 - CITY COUNCIL/SCHOOL BOARD JOINT MEETING FIVE YEAR FORECAST The City Manager introduced Catheryn Whitesell, Director — City Management Services. Catheryn referenced the Agenda for the Five Year Forecast FY 2013-2017 (a Projection of City and School System Finances). There will be discussion re the economy and discussion concerning shared revenues. Catheryn introduced Farrell E. Hanzaker, Chief Financial Officer — Virginia Beach Schools, to discuss their Forecast and then Catheryn will return to the City portion of the Forecast. At the conclusion, there will be a combined Forecast. A Deficit is projected. There are four main drivers of the combined City/School deficit: Loss of Real Estate Tax Revenue, Increasing VRS Rates, Increasing Health Insurance Costs and then some increasing Disposal Costs the City will be experiencing in the out years. If we could control or mitigate these drivers of our deficit, the deficit would actually be significantly reduced and eliminated in 2015. Agenda • Forecast Presentation • Economy • Current Formula Revenue • School Forecast • City Forecast • Conclusion and Threats • Ways to Modify the Forecast • Voting Software The local economy hinges on three (3) key factors: Consumer Confidence, Virginia Beach Defense Spending (high military presence in the area) and Housing Real Estate Assessments. Consumer Price Index November 15, 2011 -3 - CITY COUNCIL/ SCHOOL BOARD JOINT MEETING FIVE YEAR FORECAST Relative the Consumer Price Index, which is referenced within the Graphic "All items " and "Core CPI" Energy and Food Items are included in All Items but not within the Core CPI. The difference between the "red bar" and "blue bar" illustrates volatility cost, really by energy and food prices. For purposes of the Forecast, inflation is assumed primarily related to energy costs to be approximately 3%. Consumer Confidence for the last several years has been included in the index to be tracked by the Conference Board. The "green " line indicates the location of a relatively strong economy and customers feel good about the economy. The "red" line indicates a struggling economy. Last Summer, for the first time in several months, the graph dipped below the 50% line for the first time in several months. Some of the theories are the discussions on the European Debt crises, our National Debt debate occurring at that time, the downgrade of National Debt by Standards and Poors, all participated in "shaking Consumer Confidence" and causing it to drop. Consumer Confidence Unemployment Rates remain high. Nationally the rate did drop to 90%; however, this does not include individuals "who have given up looking for jobs ". The Source of the information is Bureau of Labor Statistics and the Congressional Budget Office who anticipate an increase in unemployment within the next five (5) years. On average, the duration of someone being unemployed is now over 40 weeks. The projection of national unemployment by the Congressional Budget Office anticipates a decrease in unemployment over the next five years. As noted on the graph, Virginia Beach's unemployment rate is 6.4% well below the national rate and slightly below the region and the state. November 15, 2011 CITY COUNCILI SCHOOL BOARD JOINT MEETING FIVE YEAR FORECAST Unemployment Rates 12.0% 1---- -------- - _ _... _:._ __.. Virginia Beach Defense Spending In Virginia Beach, Defense Spending was just under $14 -Billion in 2010. If reductions in the Federal Budget cause just a 10% reduction in spending, there would be nearly a $2 -Billion reduction in the Virginia Beach economy. If that loss continues for three years, Virginia Beach could see defense spending in the City drop to $10 -Billion. There is a lot of uncertainty in the economy going forward. November 15, 2011 -5 - CITY COUNCIL/SCHOOL BOARD JOINT MEETING FIVE YEAR FORECAST Real Estate would be the third major driver of our local economy.

New Business exemptions approved by City Council with the last budget, will start taking affect this January. For FY 2012, we assumed a loss of $500, 000 in revenue and in 2013 we are assuming that that will double to $1 -Million. Until we get actual data from the Commissioner of Revenue's office, this is the best estimate we have. November 15, 2011 CITY COUNCIL/SCHOOL BOARD JOINT MEETING FIVE YEAR FORECAST 3 $44.0 Utility Taxes (includes VA Telecommunications but not Egli) $40.0 _...... _. _....._ _ ... - - _:._ _._..-- ..._.:...---- - $35.0 I Total Utility Taxes are projected to decline over the next five years, driven by revenue losses in Virginia telecommunications. The Virginia telecommunications portion is expected to lose `half a Million between FY 2012 and 13. This is partially offset by the other Utility Taxes on Electric, Gas and Water which will see a small gain in revenue ($200, 000). While the State promised revenue neutrality, localities have seen steady erosion in the telecommunications portion of this revenue, in part due to the economy, but also due to administrative issues at the State which have resulted in significant repayments by the State after audits. For FY 2013, this revenue is projected to decline 3.3%. November 15, 2011 -9 - CITY COUNCIL/SCHOOL BOARD JOINT MEETING FIVE YEAR FORECAST Cable Franchise Tax Cable Franchise Tax revenue is on an upward trend and has actually improved through the Recession. It appears that cable TV is no longer a luxury, but has become a staple of the American life style. Prices, not subscribers, explain the growth in this revenue. The ever -enhancing offerings for digital service and specialty packages increase costs, and therefore, taxes.

This graph represents the City's portion of the current School Formula revenue. The increase in FY 2012 is due to the decision to switch $9.2 -Million from the School's allocation of these revenues to the City's and to replace the funding for Schools with $9.2 -Million in School Fund balances. Beginning in 2013, the forecast assumes a continuation of the City retaining only 48.7% of these seven revenues.

Factors, such as cigarette tax increases, restaurant smoking bans and increased awareness of smoking, health risks have fewer people smoking. Cigarette Tax revenue is anticipated to decrease by 8.1% in FY 2012-13 and decrease by an additional 3% the remaining years of the Forecast. This is a $700, 000 loss of revenue in FY 2013. November 15, 2011 -18 - CITY COUNCIL/SCHOOL BOARD JOINT MEETING FIVE YEAR FORECAST Hotel Tax revenue declined slightly during the Recession, but we are expecting it to rebound due to the strong performance of Tourism over the Summer. Hotel Tax remains relatively flat into FY 2013 and begins to increase in the out years of the Forecast by an average of 2% per year. Restaurant Meals Tax Restaurant tax revenue has remained steady throughout the entire recession. This could be that with the need for both parents to work, cooking at home is less of an option. It also could be a reflection of families choosing to continue to eat out, but at less expensive restaurants.

H U) C O _$150.0 $100.0 - - Projected Revenues in this category are program specific, such as water and sewer rates, the Solid Waste fee, Recreation Center fees, Library cards, Building Permits. They are showing increases as program use is increasing and as we have responded to the Blue Ribbon Committee's recommendation to increase these revenues as service delivery costs increase. The growth from FY2012 to FY2013 is $13.4 -Million driven predominately by the annualized Solid Waste fee and approved increases in water and storm water rates. Federal revenue (gold bar) to the City programs is predominately in Housing and in Human Services. FY 2013 represents a slight increase over FY 2012, however this is all subject to the ultimate outcome of the federal budget. November 15, 2011 -21 - CITY COUNCIL/SCHOOL BOARD JOINT MEETING FIVE YEAR FORECAST City Salaries Switching over to the expenditure side of the Forecast: The Forecast does not project any salary adjustments over the next five years; however this is subject to the annual budget decision by City Council. City VRS Rates Includes both Retirement and Life Insurance rates For the City, VRS rates are expected to increase by 3.65% in FY 2013. Then, every other year we would expect to see a 2% increase. November 15, 2011 -22 - CITY COUNCIL/SCHOOL BOARD JOINT MEETING FIVE YEAR FORECAST Health Insurance Costs and Percentage of Full -Time Salaries This represents the employer contribution towards Health Insurance. The last time this was increased was January of 2008 from $5,225 per full time employee to the current $5,400. Both the City and School system have used the fund balance of the Health Care Fund to offset the rising cost of Health Insurance for both the employer and employees. In addition, we have been taking the GASB -45 payment out of this balance as well. Risk Management $25.00 November 15, 2011 -23 - CITY 23 - CITY COUNCIL/SCHOOL BOARD JOINT MEETING FIVE YEAR FORECAST SPSA Cost $25.0 --- $20,0 I Estimated Solid Waste Tipping Fee - $125.00 �t•••� • • • •vim•• Estimated Solid Waste Tipping Fee - $65.35 The City of Virginia Beach currently receives the benefit of a reduced Waste Disposal fee through a contract with SPSA; however, in FY 2015-16 this contract will expire.

November 15, 2011 -34 - CITY MANAGER'S BRIEFING OCEANFRONT FORM BASED CODE 4:48 P.M. Jack Whitney, Director — Planning and Ashby Moss — Planner, presented the Oceanfront Form Based Code, as was presented to the Planning Commission last evening. This is a companion document to assist with information in the implementation of Strategic Growth Plans for the Oceanfront. Said information is hereby made apart of the record. This item will first go to the Planning Commission for their formal consideration next month and hopefully, in January, to the City Council for consideration. Ashby Moss - Planner will detail the main portion of the Briefing, with Barry Frankenfield, Manager — Strategic Growth Area office, discussing Resort Parking. Ashby Moss advised the background which began with the RASAP (Resort Area Strategic Action Plan), was approved in 2008. One of the recommendations was to develop a Form -Based Code for the Oceanfront Resort District. Work on the Form -Based Code began in 2009, with the draft Code introduced March 2011. Many comments were received from both Stakeholders and the Public. As this is a Code, the regulations do apply to the legal rights of the property. The Revised Form -Based Code was released this past October along with a Resort Parking Strategy developed by the Strategic Growth Area Office. November 15, 2011 -35 - CITY MANAGER'S BRIEFING RESORT PARKING STRATEGY 5:10 P.M. Barry Frankenfield, Manager — Strategic Growth Area Office, detailed the Resort Parking Strategy, which is hereby made a part of the record.
