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.

EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
Community of One represents a shared vision to make homelessness rare, brief, and
nonrecurring. The plan outlines a path toward a future where everyone in Virginia
Beach will be able to live in safe, decent, and affordable housing.
The goals, objectives, and action steps presented in Community of One align with
four major themes that will guide our work over the next three years:
Reinvigorating and Inspiring New Partnerships
Since the early 1980s, our community has been committed to ending homelessness
in Virginia Beach through a tapestry of faith, City, and nonprofit organizations
working together. A testament to the power of regional and community partnerships
is our successful effort to functionally end veteran homelessness in 2015.
Through Community of One, we will continue and expand these partnerships that
have laid the foundation of our work. A collaboration between the City's Health and
Human Services departments will bring additional services to enhance our system.
And, we will actively engage businesses and higher education institutions to join our
community effort.
Building on our Successes and Enhancing Our System in a Unified Way
Since the 2013 Strategic Plan to End Homelessness was adopted, we have truly
created a far more unified system with one access point, one standardized

spanning more than three decades, embodies the spirit of Community of One.
It is it not only our strategic plan, it is a renewed commitment between all of
us to continue working together toward making homelessness rare, brief, and

HOMELESSNESS IN VIRGINIA BEACH
For many people, the image that comes to mind when they think of homelessness is
the person sleeping on a bench or standing in the median holding a cardboard sign.
In reality, homelessness takes many forms and affects families and individuals from all
walks of life who often go unnoticed by the community around them.
They are the mother and her children who are escaping domestic violence. The teen
who just turned 18 and has now aged out of the foster care system.The family whose
home and possessions have been lost to a flood. The veteran who bravely served our
country, but now suffers from depression and PTSD. The food service worker who
sleeps on a friend's couch in between shifts. The senior who must choose between a
place to live and medication to manage his disability.Anyone can become homeless.
The reasons why families and individuals experience homelessness are as diverse as the
people it touches. Job loss, mental illness, family breakup, eviction, a natural disaster,
and the inability to afford housing or health care costs are just a few examples.
The impact of homelessness on a community is far-reaching and long-lasting. The
crisis of homelessness perpetuates itself in poor educational, health, employment,
and family outcomes for our community's most vulnerable residents. The cost to
the community as a whole can be measured by expenditures for police and court
intervention, incarceration, emergency medical services, and hospital visits, which are
estimated to cost more than $20,000 per person per year. Addressing homelessness
and providing everyone the opportunity to live in safe,decent,and affordable housing
is not only a quality of life issue, it is also an economic one.

Understanding the Scope of the Problem
People experience housing crises and move in and out of homelessness on an ongoing
' basis.Those who have sufficient self or family supports are able to solve the problem
\ themselves and do not become homeless. Some may need minimal assistance for a
. ° short period of time until they can find a place of their own. And others spend years
living on the streets before being connected to the right housing and services that
L-4i► j meet their needs.Since the number of people experiencing homelessness is constantly
--� r+ changing, we must rely on various sources of data in order to get the best possible
s understanding of our community's needs, and act to address them.

youth as individuals 24 years of age and younger,we have broken this population into
two age groups:18-24 and 9-17.Appropriate shelter for youth ages 18-24 is a key gap

funding that many of the nonprofit service providers receive directly from HUD. Each
year, more than $1.5 million is granted through the CoC to Virginia Beach agencies
that provide housing and supportive services to the homeless.
Portions of other federal grants the City receives are allocated for homeless programs
and services, administered by the Department of Housing and Neighborhood
Preservation, and awarded to nonprofit service providers.
Service providers also receive funding directly from the state,the United Way of South
Hampton Roads, and the Hampton Roads Community Foundation.
The City significantly supports the community system by allocating funds for key
functions when there is no other provider, such as homeless outreach and services at
the Lighthouse Day Support Services Center.As a testament to the City's longstanding
commitment to ending homelessness, the City Council unanimously approved $30
million for the construction of the Housing Resource Center, and will fund most of the
operating costs of the facility.
Because much of the funding the community system receives is federal, regulations Ray Bjorkman,

OUR COMMUNITY SYSTEM
How Do People Access Services through Our Community System?
Our community system is designed to help the most vulnerable families and individuals.
It is important to keep this context in mind in order to fully understand how people
flow through our community system.
Most people who are experiencing a housing crisis access our community system by
calling the Regional Housing Crisis Hotline. A smaller number of people, primarily
those who are homeless, are connected by our Homeless Outreach Team (more
commonly known as the Pinkies) or by accessing the services at the Lighthouse Day
Support Services Center, and eventually at the Housing Resource Center.
The first step in our community system is identifying whether the client is literally
homeless (e.g. on the street or living in their car), or at-risk (in imminent danger of
11, losing their housing).
The primary goal for at-risk households is to prevent them from becoming homeless.
People who are eligible for prevention services are referred to the appropriate
Homeless Outreach resources for assistance. For example,this may include minimal financial assistance to
Team (also known as pay a rental security deposit or rent arrears.Those who are not eligible are referred to
the Pinkies)
other resources within the community.
For families and individuals who are literally homeless, the goal is to permanently
house them while making their homelessness as brief as possible. Housing specialists
with the City will first attempt to help people seeking shelter find alternative housing
options, such as staying with friends or family members. By diverting households
away from the system, shelter beds and housing units can remain available for those
who need them more.
If diversion is unsuccessful, the client is referred to coordinated assessment. This
process involves asking the client a set of questions to determine which programs
or services are most appropriate to meet their needs, and prioritizing them for those
services.Staff is trained on administering and scoring a standardized set of assessment
tools to make these determinations. Based on assessment, vulnerabilities, priority
placement, and availability, clients are referred to either housing or shelter.
If housing is unavailable, the client is placed on the prioritization/waiting list for
housing and resources. Case managers and service providers will coordinate and
communicate regularly regarding each client on the waiting list. As permanent
housing units become available, clients are removed from the waiting list in the order
of their prioritization ranking.

Making Progress & Achieving Success
For more achievements,see The goals of the 2013 Strategic Plan to End Homelessness is a reflection of the
Appendix 1:2013 Virginia challenges our community faced at the time.Virginia Beach had yet to fully comply with
Beach Strategic Plan to End the new regulations under the federal HEARTH Act,which changed how communities
Homelessness Action Plan across the U.S. would operate and deliver homeless services. Specific requirements
(updated with statuses) included a coordinated assessment process, performance-based funding, a focus on
homeless prevention and permanent housing, and an inclusive governance structure
with representation from all service providers,not just those receiving federal funding.
The City Council's support to fund the design of the Housing Resource Center revealed
fresh opportunities for how, and which, services could be consolidated and delivered
at a facility of its kind. The first study of the City's housing crisis response system,
which had just been completed,exposed our community's strengths,weaknesses,and
opportunities to enhance our system.
These challenges influenced the four broad goals of the 2013 strategic plan. In the
four years since it was adopted,we have made significant progress in achieving these
goals. Our achievements, as they relate to each of the goals from the 2013 plan, are
highlighted below:
Goal 1: Increase leadership, collaboration, innovation and civic engagement in
our community efforts
• In our pursuit to end homelessness,we no longer operate as individual programs.
Through established strategic partnerships and collaboration among community
stakeholders, we have designed and implemented an integrated service system
approach to ending homelessness.
• The BEACH Governing Board was established in 2014 to meet HUD requirements,
and has continued to function as the leadership body for our community effort.It
has diverse representation from all community sectors.
• The BEACH Community Partnership continues to have high community interest,
with representatives from more than 30 active organizations.
• The Performance Monitoring Committee and its members have enhanced their
policies and procedures, increased the level of HUD funding available, and
obtained new state funding to support new programs.
• We collaborated with multiple federal, state, and regional organizations to
functionally end veteran homelessness in 2015, and have continued these
partnerships.
• Virginia Beach joined a regional HMIS and now participates in a single point of
entry call system for the entire region.
22 COMMUNITY OF ONE
OUR COMMUNITY SYSTEM
• We have increased our capacity and utilization of HMIS to provide more accurate
data and reports to help identify gaps in our system,and evaluate the performance
of not only individual homeless assistance programs, but the overall homeless
system as well.
Goal 2:Create a collaborative system of service delivery and access that connects
people to services that meet their basic needs and support housing stability
• We have adopted an evidence-based common assessment tool to determine the
needs of households experiencing homelessness, developed a data-driven triage
and referral process based on the severity of their needs, and created a by-name
prioritization list. As a result, homeless households are referred and placed into
appropriate housing intervention programs that best match their level of need.
• We have enhanced the capacity of outreach through the creation of the Homeless
Outreach Team. This team is dedicated to outreaching and engaging those who
are street homeless throughout Virginia Beach, not just at the Oceanfront.
• Through the Regional Housing Crisis Hotline,we have established a primary access
point for obtaining homeless assistance,and developed well-defined pathways to
assist households in ending their episode of homelessness.
• We have developed an external and objective process of system and program
monitoring.
Goal 3:Increase and maintain the supply of and access to permanent,accessible
and affordable housing
• Five new affordable housing developments opened: Summer Haven
1. Heron's Landing (opened in 2013): 60 units of subsidized housing in Apartments
Chesapeake, including 8 units for previously homeless Virginia Beach
residents
2. Crescent Square Apartments (opened in 2016): 80 units of affordable
housing, including 42 subsidized units for the previously homeless, and
38 affordable units
( 3. Baker Woods (opened in 2016): 96 units of affordable family housing,
including 8 subsidized units for disabled families -
4. Tranquility at the Lakes (opened in 2017): 40 units of affordable housing
for seniors, including 20 subsidized units
5. Summer Haven (opened in 2017): 57 units of affordable family housing,
including 6 subsidized units for disabled families
• Through the acquisition of grant funding and the reallocation of existing funding,
we have significantly increased our capacity to provide rapid rehousing to serve
individuals and families.
COMMUNITY OF ONE 23
OUR COMMUNITY SYSTEM
Goal 4:Develop sustainable resources to support our ongoing community effort
• Through major structural changes in our system we have adopted and incorporated
all of the federal HEARTH Act requirements, and are therefore positioned to
continue receiving federal funding.
• We have increased state funding by 150% (from $100,000 in 2014 to $250,000 in
2015) and maintained this level to date.
• We have increased federal funding by 13% (from more than $1.4 million in 2014
to more than $1.6 million in 2015), and maintained this level to date.
• VB Home Now is a new nonprofit that was established to support and enhance
I. our community system of services,programs,and facilities in order to prevent and
.4 end homelessness. The foundation raises funds, accepts gifts and provides other
resources in order to fill gaps in our community.
I!f Lower PIT Count Numbers
% % In 2017, we recorded the lowest number of homeless persons (349) since the PIT
Count was first required by HUD in 2007.This reflects a 32%decrease from our highest
total of 517 in 2010. In the past five years, we have seen a steady decline in the total
number of homeless persons identified during the PIT Count.

VISION & PROCESS FOR DEVELOPING
THE PLAN
When the previous strategic plan was adopted in 2013, our partnership of City agencies, faith
organizations, and nonprofits rallied behind one vision and nine guiding principles to move our
community forward to prevent and end homelessness in Virginia Beach. Four years later,we continue
to embrace these shared ideals. While the essence of our vision remains intact, we have refocused
our definition of ending homelessness to mean rare, brief, and nonrecurring.

One Vision
Realizing our personal and collective responsibility to our fellow man, we mobilize our community
to make homelessness rare, brief, and nonrecurring. We envision a future where everyone in Virginia
Beach will be able to live in safe, decent, and affordable housing.
Guiding Principles
• We believe that we can end homelessness in Virginia Beach for individuals and families. This
means that we can drastically prevent as many people as possible from becoming homeless,
shorten the length of time people experience homelessness,and help people leave homelessness
behind for good.
• • Homelessness creates both direct and indirect costs to our community. Ending homelessness will
both reduce those costs and create other benefits for the entire community.

Context for the Community of One Plan
The Community of One plan builds upon and expands the previous Strategic Plan to
End Homelessness adopted by the City Council in 2013.This updated plan incorporates
progress to date, new research, and addresses the following key items:
• The opening of the Housing Resource Center, a one-stop-shop of essential
services, shelter, and housing, that is scheduled to open at 104 N. Witchduck
Road in the spring of 2018
• Enhancements to the service system that have been implemented to unite the
faith community, City agencies, and nonprofit service providers as one coalition
for ending homelessness
• Integrating best practices and input from our community partners for our service
system
28 COMMUNITY OF ONE
VISION&PROCESS FOR DEVELOPING THE PLAN
Other Plans
In addition to the items listed above, this plan has been developed and will be
executed in the context of overall City goals and housing-related plans. This is a
major consideration in order to support the overall success of multiple city goals.
These relevant City plans and guidance documents include the annually-developed
City Council Priorities and the Comprehensive Plan, especially Section 2.3: Housing
and Neighborhood Plan. These documents define key City goals, including housing
options that serve people at all income levels and life stages.
Additional plans and programs that provide context for Community of One include:
• HUD Consolidated Plan: Identifies priorities, funding and programs to meet the
housing needs of low- and moderate-income persons.

• Workforce Housing Program: Program designed to enhance affordable housing ✓

• As previously mentioned, since most of the funding for homeless services and �p
affordable housing is federal, federal regulations will influence what activities can
be carried out and how.
Regional Relationships
Regional cooperation is an essential element in addressing homelessness for the
following reasons:
• We have a regional housing market
• We have organizations that work throughout the region
• People seeking housing are impartial to city boundaries
• Through regional cooperation, we can solve problems by sharing resources and
costs, thereby reducing the costs to individual localities and taxpayers
Virginia Beach has been an active participant in the South Hampton Roads Regional
Task Force to End Homelessness since it was created in 2005. The task force is a
collaboration between the Cities of Chesapeake,Franklin,Norfolk, Portsmouth,Suffolk,
and Virginia Beach;Isle of Wight County;The Planning Council;and the United Way of
South Hampton Roads. Its mission is to provide a forum for communicating, sharing
ideas, and developing and implementing regional strategies to address homelessness
COMMUNITY OF ONE 29
VISION&PROCESS FOR DEVELOPING THE PLAN
in South Hampton Roads.
The South Hampton Roads Regional Task Force to End Homelessness has been
nationally recognized as a successful model for local governments working together
to solve problems. As a result of regional cooperation, the task force has achieved
major successes in raising awareness, expanding access to existing housing, and
Crescent Square leveraging funding to develop new affordable housing.
Apartments
Through regional cooperation, five efficiency apartment developments have been
created in South Hampton Roads since 2006: Gosnold Apartments in Norfolk,
Cloverleaf Apartments and Crescent Square Apartments in Virginia Beach, South Bay
Apartments in Portsmouth,and Heron's Landing in Chesapeake. These developments

they could have individually. The regional nature of the projects has also attracted
additional federal, state, and private funding, so that millions of dollars of non-city
funding has been leveraged to help build and operate these developments.
The HEARTH Act
In 2009, Congress enacted the Homeless Emergency Assistance and Rapid Transition
to Housing (HEARTH)Act,which requires significant changes in the way communities
plan and deliver services.Communities must operate as a coordinated service delivery
system rather than as a collection of individually-funded projects.Specific requirements
include a coordinated assessment process, performance-based funding, a focus on
homeless prevention and permanent housing, and an inclusive governance structure
with representation from all service providers,not just those receiving federal funding.
Implementation of HEARTH Act requirements is critical to ensuring the continuation
of annual federal funding of more than $1.5 million.
The Housing Resource Center
The Housing Resource Center will be the centerpiece of our community system and
will enhance how we make homelessness rare, brief, and nonrecurring. It will be a
one-stop-shop of essential services,shelter,and housing where homeless families and
individuals can leave homelessness behind. On day one, when the Housing Resource
Center opens, 119 people will be off the street.

Goal 1: Transform Our Service System to Make Homelessness Rare,
Brief, and Nonrecurring
Overview
,
For this plan to be successful it is necessary that services for persons who experience
homelessness operate as a cohesive, comprehensive system. The system must
incorporate all services in the community, whether they are part of the nonprofit,
government, or non-governmental sector. The assistance provided must also ensure
that the basic needs for shelter and food are met, as well as access to stable housing.
The federal HEARTH Act,which requires significant changes to the way localities deliver
homeless services, creates some of the rationale for this goal.Communities must now

projects. Funding will be predicated on meeting specific performance measures.
associate director of
OrgCode Consulting,Inc.,
leads a training for housing Our current system has made significant strides in creating a streamlined process of
agencies, service providers, accessing services that incorporates prevention and diversion, utilizing an evidence-
and the faith community on based assessment tool to determine the service needs of literally homeless households,
creating a system of care and providing referrals for housing placements for those assessed to be the most
that aligns with Housing vulnerable. These accomplishments were achieved through service providers and
First. stakeholders coming together and operating as a coordinated system, as opposed to
individual projects functioning as silos.While this has been a significant step forward,
additional improvements can be made.
To be a truly successful model for coordinated service delivery, our network of
agencies and community volunteers will collaborate to provide wraparound services
to address specific homeless issues, such as family, chronic, and youth homelessness.
Our goal is to integrate ancillary services, such as employment and behavioral and
mental health,to facilitate our efforts to end homelessness and help to build resiliency
around the sustainment of housing.Our plans for the next three years call for working
with providers to create or enhance these networks, and expand or enhance these
services.

Goal 5: Maintain and Increase the Supply of Permanent, Accessible, and
Affordable Housing
Overview
One of the fundamental causes of homelessness is the gap between a household's
income and the cost of housing. People are generally extremely poor at the time they
become homeless. An adequate supply of housing that is affordable is a permanent,
cost-effective solution to homelessness that provides benefits to the entire community.
The relatively high cost of housing in Virginia Beach poses a significant challenge to
lower-income families. A recent study that looked at housing affordability challenges
in Virginia Beach found that more than one-third of all households in Virginia Beach,
approximately 61,420, are cost-burdened. This means these households pay more
than 30%of their income for housing,the accepted standard for housing affordability.
Renters and owners have different housing costs,and renters are more likely to grapple
with housing affordability challenges.A disproportionately large share of renters have
low household incomes, less than 80%of Area Median Income(AMI). Renters are also
disproportionately cost burdened (51%).
Households that pay more than 30% of their income for housing may have to make
choices between housing and other necessities like medical care, transportation or
food.Such households are at risk of homelessness through a single event,such as loss
of employment or a medical emergency.
Compelling evidence of the housing affordability crisis was also demonstrated in
September 2012, when applications were accepted for Virginia Beach Housing
Choice vouchers, a federally-funded rental subsidy. In one week, approximately 5,000
applications for assistance were received from Virginia Beach residents alone.
Objective 5.1:Continue to support the development of affordable housing
units to meet identified priority housing needs using all available methods.

Although significant progress has been made, collaboration across all sectors must

There must also be additional ongoing opportunities for citizen engagement through
educational programs, volunteerism, and public-private partnerships.
Innovation -- in the use of resources, interaction with our partners, and how we work
with our homeless citizens -- has been a key factor in the development of model

IMPLEMENTATION, MONITORING &
EVALUATION
Successful implementation of this plan will require the participation of multiple
partners who will be engaged in a wide variety of service activities,policy development,
and program initiatives. The governance structure will continue to coordinate and
oversee plan efforts, review and refine plan contents,evaluate results,and develop the
resources needed for the proposed actions.
A monitoring,evaluation,and reporting process will be necessary to measure progress
and create support for the ongoing work of the system. Through the enhancement
of HMIS, the evaluation process will be informed by the quantity and quality of data
collected on system activities. Monthly and quarterly data-driven progress reports
will be developed and widely circulated. Data and reporting will also be available
on a regional basis allowing better coordination of services as well as improved
performance monitoring. A more detailed annual review will be conducted using
a reviewer external to the system. This in-depth annual review will incorporate any
needed amendments to the plan.
An additional evaluation of performance of housing assistance programs is conducted
as part of the annual CoC funding process. Agencies requesting renewal of existing
grants will undergo a rigorous performance review to determine if they are meeting
performance benchmarks established by the community.

IMPLEMENTATION,MONITORING&EVALUATION
The Department of Housing and Neighborhood Preservation has created a new

Re: Disclosure Pursuant to Conflict of Interests Act § 2.2-31150)
Dear Mrs. Fraser:
Pursuant to the State and Local Government Conflict of Interests Act, I make the following
declaration:
1. I am executing this written disclosure regarding City Council's discussion and vote
on an ordinance to authorize the acquisition of approximately 9.12 acres located at
5544 Normandy Avenue from Living River Restoration Trust.
2. The ordinance was requested by Living River Restoration Trust, which disclosed
that Dixon Hughes Goodman is one of its service providers.
3. I have a personal interest in Dixon Hughes Goodman because I receive income
from the firm as a result of my late husband's employment by the company. The
income is proceeds from the sale of his partnership interest, paid out over an
extended period of time. Dixon Hughes Goodman's address is 272 Bendix Road,
Suite 500, Virginia Beach, Virginia.
4. The City Attorney's Office has advised me that although I have a personal interest
in this transaction,because I do not personally provide services to the applicant,the
Act provides that 1 may participate in Council's discussion and vote on this
application, upon disclosure of this interest.

Title: Cash Payment in Lieu of Park Reservation Index Number: 3.01
Date of Adoption: Date of Revision: Page 1 of 2
1.0 Purpose and Need for Policies and Procedures
Section 4.5 of the Subdivision Ordinance, Public Sites and Open Spaces, has been used as the tool to acquire
neighborhood parks and open space in developing areas. Section 4.5 is also a tool for acquiring sensitive
environmental land. It requires the developer to reserve a parcel of land for open space and recreational
purposes according to a formula based on lot size. The City has the option of purchasing this reserved land
within five years at current market value. The following alternatives to reservation are currently available in the
Subdivision Ordinance:
Dedication: Dedication of land at no cost to the City. Dedication is one-half of reservation requirement
specified in the Subdivision Ordinance.
Other Arrangements: Other mutually agreeable arrangements approved by City Council which could include
a cash payment.
Homeowners'Association: Establish a homeowners' association which would own the property and would
constitute an equivalent recreational amenity.
As noted,Section 4.5 of the Subdivision Ordinance allows for cash payments as an alternative to reservations.
Cash payments in lieu of a reservation or dedication is desirable when the dedication requirement is small (less
than one acre) or due to an analysis of existing open space/recreation amenities in relation to standards based
on population, it is determined that additional land is not needed. This policy is needed to clarify the process
and value for determining cash payments to ensure a consistent and equitable approach for cash payments.
This policy is intended as a guide for determining cash in lieu of reservations or dedications. The current
subdivision ordinance cannot require cash payment in lieu of reservations or dedications. Once received, the
cash payments are to be designated f or improvements within the planning area of the developing subdivision.
2.0 Policy
Cash payments are recommended as an acceptable alternative to dedication of open space area when the
dedication requirement is such that the resulting park space would not be a useful amenity based on statistical
criteria and standards used for acquisition of park space (generally less than one acre). All cash in lieu of
payments are to be determined by the City Real Estate Assessor and based on the dedication requirement
multiplied by the assessed land value. In the case where a property has a current land value and market value
due to land use taxation for qualifying farm and reforested property,the market value will be used to determine
the cash payment. Cash payments will be due upon approval by City Council unless other arrangements are
approved by City Council.
3.0 Procedure to Accomplish Policy
Subdivision plans are currently reviewed for compliance with the Subdivision Ordinance as coordinated by the
Planning Department. Parks and Recreation reviews all subdivision plans required to meet Section 4.5 of the
Subdivision Ordinance. The procedures and policies are in place to determine the reservation or dedication
requirement. The assessed value of properties is determined by the City Assessor's Office.
4.0 Responsibility and Authority
The Director of Parks and Recreation shall be responsible for coordinating the review process for cash payments.
Representatives from the Department of Parks and Recreation,Public Works/Real Estate,City Assessor's Office,
Department of Planning, and the City Attorney's Office will review cash in lieu of payments. The City
Assessor's Office will determine the assessed land value. The Director of Parks and Recreation will review the
proposal for cash in lieu dedication/reservation against the City's Outdoors Plan and attach a signed finding of
conformity/compliance with the Plan.
5.0 Definitions
Dedication Requirement: Defined in Section 4.5 of the Subdivision Ordinance. The dedication requirement is
one half of the reservation requirement.
Assessed Value: Current monetary value of the property as determined by the City Assessor's Office.
6.b Specific Requirements
All cash payments in lieu of park dedications are to be approved by City Council as identified in the Subdivision
Ordinance. Staff will provide statistical analysis, appraisal information. calculation of the cash payment, and
agreement from the developer. A cash in lieu of form and agreement will be used in this process(see attached).
These items are to be included in the Agenda Request for approval of the cash payment.
