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 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
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 identdying 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.
May 10, 2016

Council Lady Rosemary Wilson also DISCLOSED she has a personal interest in Dixon Hughes
Goodman and receives income from the firm as a result of her late husband's employment. The income is
proceeds from the sale of his partnership interest,paid out over an extended period of time. She is not an
employee of Dixon Hughes Goodman, does not have any role in management of the company and does is
not privy to its client list. However, due to the size of Dixon Hughes Goodman and the volume of
transactions it handles in any given year, Dixon Hughes Goodman may have an interest in matters of
which she has no personal knowledge. In that regard, she is always concerned about the appearance of
impropriety that might arise if she unknowingly participates in a matter before City Council in which
Dixon Hughes Goodman has an interest. In order to ensure her compliance with both the letter and spirit
of the State and Local Government Conflict of Interests Act (the `Act'), it is her practice to thoroughly
review each City Council agenda to identify any matters in which she might have an actual or potential
conflict. If, during her review of an agenda, she identifies a matter in which she has a `personal
interest", as defined by the Act, she 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. Council Lady Wilson's
letter of June 2, 2015, is hereby made a part of the record.

The following registered to speak re the Southeastern Public Service Authority (SPSA)— Use and Support
Agreement
Michael Benedetto, 1958 Diamond Hill Road, Chesapeake, 287-0510, advised his family owns and
operates TFC Recycling. We have provided various recycling services to the City since the 1970's. The
City Manager and Staff have done an excellent job in conveying the pros and cons of this Use and
Support Agreement. SPSA provided a proposed price but failed to provide a value. There is a hierarchy
in Waste Management and the Environment: reduce the amount of trash generated, reuse, recycle, waste
to energy and, at the bottom is deposit in the landfill. SPSA is considering entering into a contract with
RePower even though their technology has not been proven. So, if the technology fails, the only
alternative will be the amount of waste going to the landfill will increase greatly.
Upon motion by Councilman Wood, seconded by Council Lady Ross-Hammond, City Council
ADOPTED, Resolution to conditionally AUTHORIZE and DIRECT the City Manager to execute on

Members of City Council
Subject: FY 2016-17 Operating Budget and CIP Reconciliation—REVISION 1
Dear City Council Members:
After lengthy discussions with you and listening to the public input at the various public meetings, town
halls, public hearings and via email, we would like to recommend adopting the Operating Budget and
CIP with the following adjustments:
1. For our dedicated city and school employees, we suggest two changes from the Proposed Operating
Budget:
a. For school employees, leadership from both the Schools and City have developed a plan to bring
school employees' pay increase up to 3.34%, which is comparable to city employees. This is
possible as a result of additional funding through the City/Schools Revenue Sharing Formula
($1,280,440) and additional State revenue of$1,204,913 million.
b. For city employees, $850,000 is set aside to address vertical salary compression which exists
when subordinates make more money than the supervisor. This is the first year of a two year
phase-in.
2. Provide$362,877 for 4 career medics citywide.
3. Provide$302,294 for 4 fire fighters to the Creeds and Blackwater areas of the city.
4. $40,000 for additional Emergency Medical Technician Training with supplies and equipment.
5. Provide $302,294 for 4 additional firefighters at Little Neck Station 20 to complete four men on a
truck staffing of single apparatus stations.
6. Restore city funding at FY 2016 levels for the Atlantic Waterfowl Museum ($13,033) and for the
Lifesaving Museum($14,908).
7. Restore $165,721 to increase the hours of the City owned historic homes and funding for historic
preservation efforts (includes restoration of 2.47 FTEs):
a. Historic Preservation: provide 0.47 FTE to increase staff support to the Historic Preservation
program and increase funding by$25,000 for operating costs.
b. Historic Homes: provide 2.0 FTES (part-time employees) to increase the operating hours at the
city-owned historic homes and increase funding by $89,000. In order to try and increase
attendance at the historic homes we recommend eliminating the general admissions fee at the
homes,but retaining admissions for special events.
8. Increase the funding for the Arts and Humanities Commission by $25,000 to address the increased
demand for art grants through that program.
9. Restore library books and materials to its FY 2016 level ($105,651).
10. Provide $20,000 to the Parks and Recreation Foundation as a grant for the Students on the Swim
program to match the School System's$20,000.
11. Provide a$50,000 grant to the Feed the Kids program.
12. Provide a$75,000 feasibility study grant for the African American Cultural Center.
13. Provide a$12,000 grant to the Men of Faith Program.
14. Increase funding by $372,657 for the Planning Department to hire 2 new HVAC Inspectors with
vehicles and 2 new Development Project Liaisons to help citizens and businesses navigate the
development and permitting processes.
15. Create a CIP project 3-115 "Judicial Center Maintenance" to address maintenance needs of the
Judicial Center supported by a $2 increase in the Courthouse Maintenance Fee assessed for each
civil action filed in court($254,678).
16. Reduce the Residential Parking Fee for employees from $20 a month to $10 a month per City
Council action in April (revenue decrease of$91,438) and offset the loss of revenue by lowering a
parking maintenance reserve and the professional services account.
17. Increase funding to the Museum of Contemporary Arts (MOCA) by $50,000 to support their art
exhibit, Turn the Page: The First Ten Years of HI-Fructose.
18. Increase funding to the Virginia Arts Festival by$15,000.
1 II I 11
19. In addition to the funding sources identified in specific appropriation adjustments above, the
following funding sources have been identified to offset the appropriations above:
a. After review of the State's estimate for this revenue as well as recent trends, we recommend
increasing the estimate of General Sales by$1,513,166.
b. Based on final General Assembly action, increase 599 State Aid to Localities with Police
Departments by$346,031.
c. Reduce funding to the Hampton Roads Economic Development Alliance by $28,431 per the
revised agreement with this agency.
d. Redirect the $1 million reserve set aside to address changes as a result of the State budget mainly
for final numbers associated with the City/Schools Revenue Sharing Formula.
e. Reduce General Fund Reserve for Contingencies by $889,680 and various department overtime
accounts by$279,567.
The details for the funding sources and the adjustments are identified on the attachment. We recommend
adoption of the Virginia Beach Public School's FY 2017 Operating Budget as a lump sum appropriation
rather than by categories. We have discussed this issue with the School Board Chairman and the
Superintendent and are comfortable with the School's internal accounting controls to make this
recommendation.
In addition, the General Assembly is mandating us through language in the Adopted State Budget to
advance the merit date from January Pt to December 1 to to ensure that employees of Constitutional
Officers and local support state employees receive their pay increase in-line with the anticipated state
employee pay increase of 2% scheduled for December 1. While the city is proposing a pay increase of
2.34% on July 1, this issue is complicated by the fact that the State does not count the 1% VRS pay
increase adjustment as applying to the state pay increase of 2%. The other remaining 1.34% portion of
the proposed July 1 pay increase will count towards the increase. For Constitutional Officers and local
support state employees, 0.66% of what was previously the proposed 1% merit will be considered a
general increase in pay on December 1, while the other 0.34% will apply as a merit increase based on
the midpoint of the range (as the 1%merit will be applied for city employees). We proposed moving the
merit date forward by a month, so we do not treat our local employees differently than those supported
by the state. We have been advised that this change can be absorbed within the overall compensation
funding.
We want to thank the public who came out to the various town hall meetings and public hearings to
offer their comments on the FY 2016-17 Operating Budget and CIP as well as staff for their efforts to
provide answers to our various questions. If you have any questions,please contact us directly.

69 shall revert to the General Fund,special revenue fund,or enterprise fund that provided the local contribution.
70
71 Sec.10. No department or agency for which appropriations are made under the provisions of this ordinance shall
72 exceed the amount of such appropriations except with the consent and approval of the City Council first being
73 obtained. It is expressly provided that the restrictions with respect to the expenditure of the funds appropriated
74 shall apply only to the totals for each Appropriation Unit included in this ordinance and does not apply to Inter-fund
75 Transfers.
76
77 Sec.11. The City Manager or the Director of Budget and Management Services is hereby authorized to approve
78 transfers of appropriations in an amount up to$100,000 between any Appropriation Units included in this ordinance
79 through the accrual period.The City Manager shall make a monthly report to the City Council of all transfers between
80 $25,000 and $100,000. In addition, the City Manager may transfer, in amounts necessary, appropriations from all
81 Reserves for Contingencies except Reserve for Contingencies—Regular,within the intent of the Reserve as approved

84 Sec. 12. The City Manager or the Director of Budget and Management Services is hereby authorized to establish and
85 administer budgeting within Appropriation Units consistent with best management practices, reporting
86 requirements, and the programs and services adopted by the City Council. Consistent with best management
87 practices, the City utilizes a modified accrual system of accounting. Revenues are considered available when
88 collectible either during the current period or after the end of the current period, but in time to pay year-end
89 liabilities. Expenditures are recognized when a transaction or event is expected to draw upon current spendable
90 resources rather than future resources. In practical effect,the modified accrual system allows a window of 45 days
91 wherein the City may accrue back to the immediately preceding fiscal year revenues and expenditures. The City
92 Manager or the Director of Budget and Management Services is further authorized to establish administrative
93 directives to provide additional management oversight and control to ensure the integrity of the City's budget.
94
95 Sec. 13. The City Manager or the Director of Budget and Management Services is hereby authorized to change the
96 Estimated Revenues included in this ordinance to reflect expected collections. If the Estimated Revenue in support
97 of an Operating Appropriation Unit declines,the City Manager or the Director of Budget and Management Services
98 is hereby authorized to reduce, subject to any other provision of law,those appropriations to equal the decline in
99 Estimated Revenue. The City Manager shall give prior notice to the City Council of any reduction to total
100 appropriations exceeding $100,000. The notice to City Council shall identify the basis and amount of the
101 appropriation reduction and the Appropriation Units affected.The accounting records of the City will be maintained
102 in a manner that the total of Estimated Revenue is equal to the total of the Appropriation Units for each of the City's
103 funds. The City Manager or the Director of Budget and Management Services is hereby authorized to transfer any
104 excess appropriations to the Reserve for Contingencies after all anticipated expenditures for which those funds were
105 appropriated have been incurred.Nothing in this section shall be construed as authorizing any reduction to be made
Fiscal Year 2016-17 Budget Ordinances
106 in the amount appropriated in this ordinance for the payment of interest or principal on the bonded debt of the City
107 Government.
108
109 Sec. 14. The Department of Economic Development is hereby authorized to pay an amount up to$1,000,000 from
110 their FY 2016-17 Operating Budget to the Virginia Beach Economic Development Authority, for the purpose of
111 pursuing,implementing,and furthering initiatives recommended by the Bio-medical Task Force.

114 bureaus,or agencies,to any of their officers and employees for expenses on account of the use by such officers and
115 employees of their personal automobiles in the discharge of their official duties shall not exceed fifty six cents($0.56)

118 costs of operating an automobile for business,charitable, medical or moving purposes.
119
120 Sec. 16. In the event of an emergency and under emergency circumstances wherein the City Council cannot
121 reasonably hold a meeting, the City Manager is authorized to transfer and expend appropriated sums from any
122 budget account to ensure that the emergency is handled as efficiently and expeditiously as possible. Immediately
123 following the expenditure of funds under this provision,and as soon as the City Council can reasonably meet under
124 the existing circumstances,the City Manager shall notify the City Council of the reason for such action, how funds
125 were expended,and present to the City Council for adoption an emergency appropriations ordinance that sets forth
126 what measures are required to ensure that funds are forthwith restored to the appropriate accounts and that the
127 budget is balanced at the end of the fiscal year in which the emergency expenditures occurred.
128
129 An emergency is defined for the purposes of this provision as an event that could not have been
130 reasonably foreseen at the time of the adoption of the budget, and in which (i) an immediate threat to the public
131 health, safety or welfare is involved, such as clean-up after a hurricane, and/or(ii) immediate action is required to
132 protect or preserve public properties.
133
134 Sec. 17. All travel expense accounts shall be submitted on forms approved by the Director of Finance and according
135 to regulations approved by the City Council. Each account shall show the dates expenses were incurred or paid;
136 number of miles traveled;method of travel;hotel expenses;meals;and incidental expenses.The Director of Finance
137 is specifically directed to withhold the issuance of checks in the event expense accounts are submitted for "lump-
138 sum"amounts.
139
140 Sec.18. The City Manager is hereby authorized to allocate funding,within the aggregate amounts approved by City
141 Council for total compensation,to implement the General Assembly mandated changes to the Virginia Retirement
142 System ("VRS") that require all full-time City employees hired before July 1, 2010 to pay five percent (5%) of their
143 salaries to the VRS to be offset by a pay increase of five percent(5%) by July 1,2016.The City Council has chosen to
144 phase this in with 1%increments with 1%provided for fiscal year 2017.To accommodate VRS requirements that the
145 entire paycheck provided on July 15th include the fiscal year 2017 increase, the City Manager or designee is
146 authorized to make the changes in this section for the pay period relating back to June 22,2016.While not mandated
147 by the General Assembly,a 1%increase is provided for all full time City employees hired after July 1,2010.
148
149 Sec. 19. A salary increase of 1.34%on the pay period relating back to June 22, 2016 for all full-time and part-time
150 City employees is hereby provided.The amount authorized by this Section 19 does not include the 1%VRS required
151 increase provided in Section 18 for full-time City employees.
152
153 Sec.20.A 1%merit pay increase is authorized for full-time employees with a performance feedback completed from
154 December 1, 2015 to November 30, 2016 that indicates overall performance meets expectations. The merit pay
155 increase shall be calculated against the mid-point of each pay range and paid as a flat dollar amount to full-time
156 employees on that pay range. Notwithstanding the timing provisions provided by City Code§§2-109 and 2-116,the
157 merit pay increase authorized by this section shall be provided on December 1, 2016. The other requirements
158 provided by City Code§§2-109 and 2-116 such as the eligibility for such merit pay being limited to non-probationary
Fiscal Year 2016-17 Budget Ordinances
159 employees shall still apply. To ensure accountability, the failure of a supervisor responsible for preparing the
160 performance feedback, to complete the same prior to December 1, 2016, shall result in the supervisor and
161 employee(s) merit pay increase being delayed until such time as the performance feedback is completed. In those
162 cases, the merit pay increase will be retroactive upon completion of the performance feedback for both the
163 supervisor responsible for completing the performance feedback and the employee(s).
164
165 Sec. 21. In lieu of the 1% merit pay increase authorized in Section 20, those employees that are the subject of the
166 state-funded general pay increase authorized by the General Assembly in the 2016-2018 Biennial Budget will be
167 provided a 0.66% general salary increase and a 0.34% merit pay increase December 1, 2016. The mid-point
168 calculation and current performance feedback status,for employees and supervisors,requirements of the merit pay
169 increase set forth in Section 20 shall apply to issuance of the merit pay increase only.
170
171 Sec. 22 29.The city will be moving from semi-monthly payroll (24 pay checks)to bi-weekly payroll (26 pay checks)
172 effective May 2017.As a result of this switch paychecks for employees will be smaller and more frequent.Employee
173 salaries will not be affected. Because of the impact of the smaller checks the city manager is authorized to provide
174 short term pay supplements for the first 2 to 3 pay periods after the conversion to assist employees with this
175 transition.
176
177 Sec.23 24. Violation of this ordinance may result in disciplinary action by the City Manager against the person or
178 persons responsible for the management of the Appropriation Unit in which the violation occurred.
179
180 Sec.242,2. This ordinance shall be effective on July 1, 2016. The portion of Sections 18 and 19 addressing the
181 requirements of VRS and the payroll period that crosses fiscal years shall be effective June 22,2016.
182
183 Sec.25 24. If any part of this ordinance is for any reason declared to be unconstitutional or invalid, such decision
184 shall not affect the validity of the remaining parts of this ordinance.
185
186 Requires an affirmative vote by a majority of all of the members of City Council.

17 Line of Duty Act. At such time as the State restores funding above the following benchmarks: funding for Schools
18 at $350M (per annum, net of School Facility Funds); urban road construction at $20M (per annum); and Line of
