Council Member Dyer advised he will be soliciting input from staff and council. Council Member Dyer read the drafted resolution which a copy is attached and made part of this record. Council Member Wilson advised the Historic Preservation Committee will be meeting next month and will be discussing the confederate monument. Council Member Kane read a letter from the Human Rights Commission dated August 17, 2017, which a copy is attached and made a part of this record. Council Member Davenport in response to Council Member Dyer's proposed resolution,feels it is important to respond as public private partnerships are used in every city across the country and feels such a resolution will be tying one hand behind our back in terms of economic development. Council Member Dyer believes we live in theater of proception and the proception is some developers have an easier time and wants an equal playing field for all businesses. Council Member Henley believes that some of the language included in the proposed resolution does not feel accurate. Council Member Henley asked from Warren Harris for background and incentives back to 1994 when the Economic Development Incentive Program and then policy developed in 2001. Council Member Henley believes this comes down to an individual philosophy and the policy is available for anyone to apply. Unfortunately, there is a misperception and hates to send the message that we are making it harder for people to want to invest in our city. Council Member Henley believes council must look at it in totality and would hate to have a moratorium. Council Member Wilson advised she has concern about a moratorium and not be fair to stop the projects that are in the pipeline. Council Member Dyer advised this is to provoke a real discussion on this topic. Council Member Moss advised he, along with Council Member Kane and the City Manager had a very productive meeting with VBCDC and believes it might be 45 to 60 days but is hopeful they will have a recommended path forward.

In E.FORTUNATO"JOJO"ORENCIA JR. the many discussions that have taken place, one theme has surfaced time and time again; the Virginia Beach Police Department (VBPD) has striven to act FATHER JAMES E.PARKE with professionalism, compassion and with the utmost restraint and dignity in WM"CLIFF"RICE all of their interactions, especially those during College Beach Week (Week LUIS A.RIVERA,MA Ed. 17). TERESA STANLEY PRANCES KNIGHT THOMPSON Through our partnerships with the VBPD, we have witnessed, first-hand, their commitment to being a proactive partner towards building a more transparent RABBI ISRAEL ZOBERMAN and inclusive law enforcement agency that seeks to work with the communities STUDENT COMMISSION MEMBERS: they serve. The effects of their hard work are perhaps best seen in the Western JOSEPH HYATT Bayside area of the City, through their work with the Pastors / Leaders Table. This group made up of pastors, citizens, community leaders and VBPD CITY COUNCIL LIAISONS; leadership and officers, has been meeting for over two years.

SHANNON DS KANE EXECUTIVE DIRECTOR: The VBPD daily accepts the awesome responsibility of placing themselves REGINA HILLIARD,HR DIRECTOR between our families and dangerous situations, and they willingly face those LEGAL COUNSEL: who seek to do harm so that our community can rest easy at night. We ask ROD INGRAM,DEPUTY CITY ATTORNEY much of this group of men and women, and they are constantly challenged to be stronger, learn faster, "be more" and to adapt with the ever changing HUMAN RIGHTS COMMISSION LIAISON: landscape of threats that face our City. KATHY HINSON Much of the VBPD's efforts are overshadowed by the next headline or most recent turmoil and these brave officers face an almost constant barrage of complaints for things that, all too often, are beyond their control. We ask our Police to solve social issues that we ourselves are not willing or able to tackle; we look to them as the answer but then fail to provide the support and resources needed to put our demands into action. But they continue on, serving and protecting regardless of whether we lend our support or give our thanks. Dave Hansen,City Manager August 17,2017 Page 2 On behalf of the entire Human Rights Commission, in partnership with the Pastors / Leaders Table, we would like to express our deepest gratitude for the acts of service provided to our citizens and guests every day. We thank the VBPD, for being willing to put their lives on the line and protect all members of our community; including those who scream words of anger,threaten violence or antagonize them and the uniform they wear. It is because of their professionalism, their desire to serve with quiet dignity and an unswerving dedication to their sworn duties that we can call this the greatest City in the world. It is our sincere hope that City leadership will join us in acknowledging one of our City's most valuable resources,the Virginia Beach Police Department.
