Top Budget Considerations
• Aging Infrastructure: Developer built water and sewer
facilities dedicated to the City in the high-growth period of
the 1970's and 80's are wearing out and must be replaced
• Workload is up:Aging infrastructure,unfunded mandates
• Productivity impacted by aging workforce and laws and
regulations for employee protection
• Revenues stagnant:Customer base is not growing,water
demand down 14%since 2007
• Traffic forces many repairs and CIP projects to short days,
nights,or weekends—increased cost,lower productivity
• Budget is focused upon sustainability of operations,the CIP,
and aging infrastructure. No rate increases for FY2016

Below is the current Billing process:
The Utility Billing Process
• Meter reading, billing, and delinquency process involve
millions of interrelated and coordinated actions each year
• The Banner/Hansen CIS was designed &built around
meter readings(SOP for utility billing systems)
• Solid waste, stormwater,wastewater charges are
calculated from the number of days between readings
• Fundamentally changing this billing system would require
lengthy, significant, and risky customization
• Meters are manually read on a bi-monthly basis
• The only way to properly bill more frequently is to read
meters more frequently
Below are the required changes to automated and operational processes:
Required Changes to Automated and
Operational Processes
• Monthly meter reading contract or contract meter readers
• Banner/Hansen Customer Information System
— Determine required modifications to both business processes
and the billing system software
— Delinquency process is a significant issue
— Reconfigure system rules as necessary—test,test,test!
— Modify or generate new business process and documentation
• Coordinate increased volume of bills and payments with third
party vendors and Treasurer's Office
• Coordinate billing schedule impacts with HRSD

INVOCATION: Father James E. Parke
Retired Priest, Diocese of Richmond
PLEDGE OF ALLEGIANCE TO THE FLAG OF THE UNITED STATES OF AMERICA
Mayor Sessoms DISCLOSED he is retired from Towne Bank (which has a corporate office located at
297 Constitution Drive in Virginia Beach), and no longer has any involvement in Towne Bank's
transactions. However, due to the size of TowneBank and the volume of transactions it handles, Towne
Bank 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 Berkshire Hathaway Home Services
Town Realty, which is an affiliate of Towne Bank. 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 idents 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
January 13, 2015, 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 she is a Real Estate Agent affiliated with Berkshire
Hathaway Home Services Town Realty ("Berkshire Hathaway"), which was formerly known as
Prudential Towne Realty. Because of the nature of Real Estate Agent affiliation and the volume of
transactions it handles in any given year, Berkshire Hathaway 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
purpose of identi&ing 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 13, 2015, is hereby made a part of the record.

Billy Almond, 209 70d" Street, Phone: 422-9522, advised he is the Chair of the Resort Advisory
Commission and has worked for the past four (4)years to develop a Plan to revitalize 19th" Street. The
energy carried past 19t1" Street and extended all the way down to 17t'" Street. Mr. Almond requested City
Council's support of this revitalization.
Andrew Fine, 6810 Ocean Avenue, Phone: 897-8888, advised this was a grassroots effort to revitalize a
long neglected, crime ridden part of the City. This effort was led by young people and received the
attention of entrepreneurs to take a chance on what "might be" rather than "what was". The VIBE
District will be a pedestrian friendly place of discovery. The effort, over time, will raise property values
and reverse the neglect of the area. This District will provide a unique opportunity of collaboration with
local Artists.
Laura Harb, 320 19t1i Street, Phone: 428-5444, advised this is a success story of "home-grown"
entrepreneurs. The Old Beach Farmer's Market has grown in this District. She expressed her
appreciation to Councilmen Davenport and Uhrin, Emily Lebows and other City Staff involved in making
this a reality.
Elizabeth Hardy,600 22nd Street, Phone: 486-0469, advised this District will help build "a community for
a lifetime". This is based on young people and the willpower to support the District. She relocated her
business because she believes in this effort.
Cindy Pennbacker, 608 24t'" Street, Phone: 660-6864, stated she loves the City and the Ocean Front
community. Virginia Beach Boulevard used to be the main hub of the City, booming with business.
However, over the years, it has deteriorated horribly and this effort is to revitalize the area. The District
offers a year-round destination for locals and tourists all the while supporting local businesses. The
community support has been amazing and they are excited at the possibilities of this District.
Eric Leach, 1271 Eaglewood Drive, Phone: 672-4466, spoke in support of the ViBE District. He
graduated from Salem High School, Old Donation Center for Visual Arts and the Governor's School.
Mr. Leach is supportive of local businesses and is happy to see the area starting to have character with
"localness"and the "ViBE"it is creating.
Morgan Chase, 1158 Ocean Pebbles Way, Phone: 662-0128, advised the notion of not having a ViBE
District in the City has brought out young educated citizens to champion the cause. He is excited about
the possibility of having a pedestrian friendly District in this area.
Kristina Chastain, 5401 Lakeside Avenue, Phone: 615-0920, advised she is an active investor in 17th
Street and supports the ViBE District. She is the Immediate Past President of the Virginia Beach
Restaurant Association and they are in full support of this proposed District.
Charles Powell, s403 18t'" Street, Phone: 377-2621, spoke in support. Mr. Powell moved his interior
design business into the District in 2000. Mr. Powell advised these individuals do not ask for handouts
and have used their own funds to make the City a better place to live and visit. The Farmer's Market
began with 2 vendors and has grown into a vibrant shopping area.
Steve Mackenzie, 860 Artesia Way, spoke in support. The ViBE District creates inspiration with art and
is something the City can be proud.
Igor Acord, 402 Redhead Way, Phone: 639-2397, did not respond.

Steve Johnston, 2316 Enchanted Forest Lane, Phone: 468-1474, is not sure who is doing Urban Planning
for the City but he feels that person needs to be fired. Mr. Johnston is not opposed to the ViBE District
but the location of the District. The City is going to invest in a major arena and we do not need an "Art
District" adjacent to the Arena. Instead, restaurants, retail and entertainment venues should surround
the Arena to help support the project.

135 reason to believe that a qualified organization no longer meets the applicable requirements, such
136 organization shall, upon request of the Administrator, provide such information as will enable the
137 Administrator to determine whether the organization continues to meet the applicable
138 requirements.
139
140 (c) A qualifying organization shall file an annual business license application with the
141 Commissioner of the Revenue, pay any applicable business license taxes, and shall provide the
142 Commissioner with certification from the Administrator that the organization meets the

145 Commissioner by auditor inspection of documents. The qualifying organization shall also provide
146 the Commissioner, upon request, with proof that no taxes or fees payable to the City are delinquent

148 shall so notify the Administrator, who shall decline to certify the applicant as a qualifying
149 organization.
150
151 (d) Failure of a qualifying organization to pay in full by the due date any taxes or fees

159
160 COMMENT
161 The section sets forth the duties of the Administrator and responsibilities of qualifying organizations.
162
163 Sec. 9-5. Qualification.
164
165 Upon determination by the Administrator that an applicant is a qualifying organization, such
166 organization shall be qualified to receive the incentives provided for in this chapter; provided,
167 however, that a qualifying organization to which a business license was issued prior to the
168 effective date of the establishment of the Creative District in which it was located at the time of the
169 issuance of such license shall not be eligible for the incentives set forth in Sections 9-6 or 9-7. All
170 such incentives shall be subject to annual appropriation by the City Council. If an organization
171 ceases to be a qualifying organization during a year in which reimbursements, payments or
172 exemptions apply, they shall be prorated for the months such organization was a qualifying
173 organization.
174 COMMENT
175 The section provides that qualifying organizations are entitled to receive the incentives specified in the
176 ordinance and provides for proration in the event such an organization ceases to qualify. The section also
177 distinguishes between businesses that existed in a Creative District prior to the establishment of the district and
178 businesses that are new to the district. The former class do not qualify for the incentives set forth in Sections 9-6
179 and 9-7.

185 immediately following the Administrator's determination pursuant to Section 9-4 or until such
186 organization no longer qualifies for such reduction, whichever is the first to occur; provided,
187 however, that in the event the Administrator's initial determination occurs with less than six (6)
188 months remaining in the calendar year, a qualifying organization may elect to designate the
189 following calendar year as the first year for purposes of obtaining the reimbursement; and provided
190 further, that any qualifying organization eligible for the flat business license tax pursuant to section
191 18-207 may elect to defer receiving reimbursement as provided in this section until the first
192 business license year after the expiration of its entitlement as provided in section 18-207.
5
193 (b) All business license tax reimbursements are subject to adjustment by the
194 Commissioner of the Revenue based on actual gross receipts earned from qualifying activities.
195 Any additional business license tax assessed due to such adjustments, or due to revocation of the
196 tax rebate, shall be subject to collection and delinquency provisions set out in Chapter 18 of the
197 City Code.
198
199 COMMENT

264 (a) Eligibility for exemption. To be eligible for the partial exemption from real estate
265 provided by this section, a building or structure shall be no less than twenty (20) years of age at
266 the time the application is made. Any such exemption shall only apply to buildings or structures
267 that have been substantially rehabilitated, renovated or replaced for commercial or industrial use
268 by a qualifying organization after the effective date of this section. The exemption shall apply only
269 for such period as at least fifty per cent(50%) of the total floor area of the rehabilitated structure is
270 occupied by a qualifying organization, as defined in section 9-3. For purposes of this section:
7
271
272 (1) "Rehabilitation"shall mean the process of returning a property to a state of
273 utility, through repair or alteration, which makes possible an efficient use of
274 the property; and
275
276 (2) "Qualifying costs" shall include the costs of all work done to the structural
277 components, heating, plumbing and electrical systems of the building, work
278 done to update kitchens and bathrooms, work necessary for compliance with
279 the Americans With Disabilities Act, the installation of fire suppression
280 systems and fire escapes, reasonable architectural and engineering fees,
281 construction period interest, site work, landscaping elements and
282 construction management costs, but shall not include acquisition costs .
283
284 (b) Application for exemption;base value. To qualify fora partial tax exemption pursuant
285 to this section, the owner of such structure shall, at the same time an application is made for a
286 building permit to rehabilitate such structure, file with the Administrator an application and
287 construction plans. Among the other information supplied, the applicant shall estimate on the
288 application form the qualifying costs of the rehabilitation project. Such application shall be filed
289 prior to the commencement of any rehabilitation work for which an exemption is sought. No
290 structure shall be eligible for such exemption unless all required building permit(s) have been
291 issued.
292 (c) Review of application and plans. The Administrator shall review all applications,
293 plans and other information submitted that relate to a rehabilitation project for which the
294 exemption provided by this section is sought. If, after reviewing the application and plans for a
295 proposed rehabilitation project, the Administrator determines in writing that the proposed project is
296 eligible for the partial tax exemption provided for in this section, he shall notify the applicant that
297 the project has been approved for the exemption, subject to compliance with the provisions of this
298 section. The Administrator, on behalf of the City, and the owner of the structure shall thereafter
299 enter into an agreement setting forth the terms and conditions pursuant to which the exemption
300 provided for in this section is granted.
301
302 (d) Exemption for rehabilitated structures. Notwithstanding any contrary provision of the
303 City Code, the exemption for rehabilitated structures shall be calculated and applied as set forth
304 below:
305
306
8
307
308 (1) The assessment of the structure for the current tax year, prior to
309 commencement of the rehabilitation, shall constitute the base value of the
310 structure. The exemption shall be in an amount equal to the greater of the
311 initial increase in assessed value of the structure above its base value
312 resulting from the rehabilitation of the structure, as determined by the real
313 estate assessor, or an amount equal to fifty (50) percent of the qualifying
314 costs of rehabilitating the structure; provided, however, that the amount of
315 the exemption provided by this subsection shall not exceed the amount of
316 the assessment of the structure at any time after its rehabilitation.
317
318 (2) The exemption shall run with the land for ten (10) years; provided, however,
319 that if the Administrator determines that the criteria for the eligibility for the
320 exemption no longer applies, the exemption shall cease as of the current tax
321 year. The owner of the structure shall, upon request of the Administrator,
322 furnish to the Administrator such information as is reasonably necessary for
323 the Administrator to determine whether the rehabilitated property continues
324 to meet the eligibility requirements of this section; provided, however, that
325 the Administrator may consider all relevant information available to him in
326 making such determination.
327
328 (3) No increase in assessment occurring after the first year of such rehabilitation
329 exemption shall qualify for an increase in such exemption. In the event of a
330 decrease in the property's assessed value after the first year of any
331 rehabilitation exemption, the exemption shall be based on the difference in
332 taxes computed on the base value and the decreased assessed value of the
333 property. The applicant shall submit to the real estate assessor
334 documentation of all qualifying costs incurred as a basis for the exemption,
335 and shall execute an affidavit stating that all such costs were incurred as part
336 of the project.
337
338
9
342 (4) By August 15 of each year for the duration of the exemption, the real estate
343 assessor shall notify the city treasurer of the exemption and the amount to be
344 credited to the property owner's tax bill.

Re: Disclosure Regarding the ViBe Creative District
Dear Mrs. Fraser:
I would like to make the following disclosure:
1. I am making this disclosure regarding City Council's discussion and potential vote on
an ordinance to establish the ViBe Creative District as an arts and cultural district and
technology zone that would include incentives for qualifying businesses in the
district. The ordinance has not been finalized, and no date has been selected for its
possible inclusion on City Council's agenda for an upcoming meeting, but City
Council may discuss the proposal at its retreat on February 5-6, 2015.
2. My mother has an ownership interest in Malbonland, LLC, which owns property
located at 414 Virginia Beach Boulevard and at 422 Virginia Beach Boulevard
(which is also known as 418 Virginia Beach Boulevard). She also has an ownership
interest in Malbonland Trust, which owns property located at 408 18th Street (also
known as 1716 Artie Avenue). All three properties may be located within the
boundaries of the proposed ViBe Creative District.
3. The City Attorney's Office has advised me that Act provides that my mother's
ownership of property within the ViBe Creative District would not cause me to have
a personal interest in the City Council's discussion and vote on an ordinance that
1604 WEST HILLTOP EXEC CENTER#305,VIRGINIA BEACH,VIRGINIA 23451
I li
Mrs. Ruth Hodges Fraser -2- February 5, 2015
creates the district, and that accordingly the Act provides that I may participate
without restriction in Council's discussion of, and vote on, this issue.
4. The City Attorney also advised me that if, hypothetically, I owned the property,the
Act would allow me to participate in City Council's discussion and vote on this issue
as a member of a group owners of property located within the proposed ViBe
Creative District—the members of which may be affected by the ordinance.
5. I have chosen to voluntarily disclose the above facts and declare that I am able to
participate in the transaction fairly, objectively, and in the public interest.
Accordingly, I respectfully request that you record this declaration in the official records of
City Council.
Thank you for your assistance and cooperation in this matter.
Sincerely,
M. Ben Davenport

105 and compact radio equipment deployed in order to provide mobile voice and
106 broadband service. Such facilities include distributed antenna systems (DAS),
107 small cells, and other low-powered radio access nodes, including those that
108 operate in licensed spectrum and unlicensed carrier-grade Wi-Fi. Small wireless
109 facilities typically have a range from ten (10) meters to several hundred meters
110 and can be deployed on a variety of non-traditional structures such as utility poles,
111 as well as on rooftops and inside buildings, to enhance capacity or fill in coverage
112 gaps. The terms shall be construed to include supporting lines, cables, wires,
113 braces, masts or other appurtenances.

119 are technical in nature and are intended to encompass all codes intended to implement a
120 Strategic Growth Area Plan, rather than only form-based codes,
121
122 The remaining amendments modify the definitions of "building-mounted antenna"
123 so as to exclude small wireless facilities and "communication tower" so as to clarify that
124 regulations pertaining to communication towers also apply to associated base stations,which
125 are also defined. New definitions of"communication tower, temporary" and "small wireless
126 facility" are added to the section as well.

284 (a) Purpose; applicability.
285
286 (1) The purpose of this section is to (1) facilitate the provision of
287 wireless communications services to the citizens and
288 businesses of the city; (2) minimize the risk of physical
289 damage and other potential adverse impacts of
290 communications towers; (3) require, where commercially
291 reasonable, the joint use of communications towers by
292 providers of wireless telecommunications services so as to
293 avoid unnecessary proliferation of communication towers and
294 related facilities; and (4) allow the use of public property
295 under circumstances in which such use (i) minimizes the
296 potential adverse visual and other impacts of communication
297 towers and their appurtenances; (ii) does not adversely affect
298 the operation of public facilities such as public safety
299 communications facilities and water tanks for their primary
300 purpose; and (iii) conforms to applicable requirements
301 pertaining to the use of public property for purposes of
302 communication tower siting.
303
304 (2) Notwithstanding the provisions of Section 105(d) of this
305 ordinance, any co-location of antenna arrays or other
306 modifications to a communication tower or base station that
307 substantially changes, whether individually or cumulatively,
308 the physical dimensions of such tower or base station, shall
309 require a new or modified conditional use permit. For
310 purpose of this section, the standards set forth in Title 47,
311 Part 1, Subpart CC of the Code of Federal Regulations (47
312 C.F.R. §1.40001 et seq.), or any successor regulation, shall
313 be determinative of whether a co-location or other
8
314 modification substantially changes the physical dimensions of
315 a communication tower or base station.
316
317 . . . .
318
319 (j) Special provisions for communication towers affixed to electric
320 transmission line structures and building-mounted antennas.
321
322 (1) Communication towers affixed to electric transmission line
323 structures and building-mounted antennas shall be allowed
324 as principal uses where so permitted in the district
325 regulations, provided that the following requirements are met:
326
327 (1) a. Communication towers and building-mounted
328 antennas shall be made of materials or painted in such
329 manner as to match, to the maximum extent
330 practicable, the color of the structure upon which they
331 are affixed or mounted;
332
333 (2) b. Communication towers shall not project above the top
334 of the structure to which they are affixed by more than
335 twenty (20) percent of the height of the structure;
336
337 (3) c. The owner of the communication tower or his agent
338 submits to the planning director a list containing the
339 name and last known address of the owner of all
340 abutting lots, as shown on the current real estate tax
341 assessment books or current real estate tax
342 assessment records. The planning director shall
343 thereafter notify such property owners of the filing of
344 the site plan or building permit application seeking
345 approval of the communication tower. No such site
346 plan or building permit shall be approved for a period
347 of seven (7) days from the mailing of the notices; and
348
349 (4) d. Building-mounted antennas shall conform to the
350 requirements of section 207.
351
9
352 (2) Communication towers affixed to electric transmission line
353 structures and building-mounted antennas not meeting the
354 applicable requirements of this section may be permitted as
355 conditional uses where so provided by the regulations of the
356 district in which they are located.
357
358 (k) Small wireless facilities and temporary communication towers not
359 meeting the requirements of Section 207 may be allowed as conditional uses
360 where so provided by the regulations of the district in which they are located.

365 COMMENT
366
367 The amendments to this section are as follows:
368
369 1. Added new catchline to the section;
370
371 2. Added new catchline to subsection(a);
372
373 3. Added language in subsection (j) (2) providing that communication towers
374 affixed to electric transmission line structures and building-mounted antennas not meeting
375 the applicable requirements of this section may be permitted as conditional uses if so
376 provided by the applicable zoning district use regulations;
377
378 4. Added a new subsection (k), providing that small wireless facilities and
379 temporary communication towers not meeting the applicable requirements of this section
380 may be permitted as conditional uses if so provided by the applicable zoning district use
381 regulations; and
382
383 5. Added a new subdivision (3) to subsection (a), providing that co-locations of
384 antenna arrays or other modifications to a communication tower or base station that
385 substantially changes, whether individually or cumulatively, the physical dimensions of such
386 tower or base station shall require a new or modified conditional use permit. While that has
387 been the standard practice of the City,recent federal regulations provide that co-locations or
388 modifications that do not substantially change the size of a tower or base station must be
389 approved administratively. Those regulations also set forth standards for determining
390 whether a co-location or modification substantially changes the physical dimensions of such
391 tower or base station and provide that the determination is to take into account the
392 cumulative changes to a tower or base station so as to preclude an operator from making
393 piecemeal modifications intended to avoid the necessity for discretionary approval such as
394 conditional use permit.
