Mayor Dyer welcomed Patrick A.Duhaney, City Manager. City Manager Duhaney advised he wanted to provide a brief summary on the vaccination progress and read the following statement: "Mayor and Members of Council, I have a brief update on the vaccination clinic operations and the status of related initiatives. As of noon today, there are 72,804 registrants in the pre-registration portal. We have three large clinics this week and a small health equity clinic scheduled for Saturday. With these, we expect to have vaccinated over 27,000 people through the City- partnered Points of Distribution (POD) sites. That includes people from both 1A and 1B tiers but does NOT include the doses being provided through Sentara and other providers. With those, we should be over 50,000 vaccinations this week and nearly 10,000 fully vaccinated. While this is progress, it is still too slow by anyone's standards. The insufficient vaccine supply continues to be a major issue for everyone. However, there is a bright spot with CVS beginning to offer the vaccine. The Virginia Department of Health announced this afternoon that CVS Pharmacy has begun registering Virginians age 65 and older who are within the Phase lb eligibility guidelines for vaccinations as part of the Federal Retail Pharmacy Program for COVID-19 Vaccination. As of today, eligible individuals can register at https://www.cvs.com/immunizations/covid- 19-vaccine. Those without online access can contact CVS Customer Service at(800) 746- 7287. Walk-in vaccinations without an appointment will not be provided. CVS will begin administering vaccinations on Friday, February 12. Pharmacy companies receive vaccines directly from the federal government through the partnership program. To meet the vaccination needs of the most vulnerable populations impacted by COVID-19 (people older than 65 and those who are 16-64 years old who have underlining health conditions), City staff is assisting the Department of Public Health with the Health Equity Task Force and plans for staffing vaccination microsites around the community to help reach our under-served and vulnerable populations. The first of these events will be held on Saturday, February 13, at Enoch Baptist Church, 5461 Herbert Moore Rd. targeting the Lake Edward and Bayside communities. Going forward, we may look at using recreation centers or other similar sites for these smaller, targeted community vaccination clinics. The state and VBDPH continues to address issues involving the state's recent transition to a new scheduling system called PrepMod.Apparently, the links can be shared so people think they are registering but they are not because there is only one registration honored per link. They are working to fix this,so the link doesn't allow more than one use. I will continue to update you on our efforts, and I welcome your suggestions and comments." Mayor Dyer expressed his appreciation to City Manager Duhaney for the update. February 9, 2021 5 CITY MANAGER'S BRIEFINGS LEGISLATIVE UPDATE ITEM#71261 :54 P.M.

City Manager Duhaney opened the discussion. Council Member Moss advised he would like to have time during the City Council Retreat to discuss the following topics: • Options for targeted real estate tax relief that will provide the most relief • Incentives for filling vacancies in the Police Department such as; recruitment and retention bonuses and paying relocation costs to hire from outside the City • CIP annex to implement for the possible bond referendum • Compensation strategy There were no further comments. February 9, 2021 25 CITY COUNCIL DISCUSSION STORMWATER MANAGEMENT ITEM#71264 5:36 P.M. Vice Mayor Wood opened the discussion. Council Member Moss referenced past issues within the Stormwater Management Program; the Thalia BMP being in a non-compliance status since 2018, the Pinnacle Development re-zoning project and current flooding in Norton Court. Council Member Moss advised he is concerned funding $1.2-Billion for the Program based on models without having modeling results to know if the standards will be met. Council Member Moss advised when developers submit applications, there are only preliminary assessments on the work required to meet the standard but after the application is approved by City Council, there is no further information provided to ensure the requirements and standards have actually been met. Council Member Moss believes there is a gap in the Stormwater Management Program due to failure in current designs and a lack of enforcement. Council Member Moss advised developers need to be bonded for their work to bring better rigor to projects being approved. Council Member Abbott advised there needs to be an accountability piece for redevelopment projects to avoid another situation like Ashville Park. Council Member Abbott expressed concern that once the application process is approved by City Council, it is difficult to take approval back afterwards when citizens come forward with information that the project is not meeting the requirements. Council Member Abbott feels that it discredits the Body's judgement and emphasized the need for accountability in the application process. Council Member Wilson advised she has seen the pictures and information from people who have been dealing with the flooding on Norton Court for years and would like information from staff on how the Body can help them. Council Member Henley advised the staff conducted a site visit and thoroughly examined the flooding issue on Norton Court and are following through, although it will take time to resolve. Council Member Henley advised she has heard from the Norton Court community and they are pleased with Mr.Koetter's response. Council Member Moss advised flood mitigation is the number one priority and most unfunded in the City; as the budget process begins, this is something that needs to be addressed to ensure the standards, modeling systems and maintenance requirements are met for every community in the City. Vice Mayor Wood expressed his appreciation to the Body for the comments and discussion and will look forward to further discussion during the March 8-9, 2021, City Council Retreat.
