PUBLIC BEACH LIFEGUARD SERVICES
12:00 NOON
ITEM # 35930
Bruce Edwards, Director - Emergency Medical Services, advised Liteguard service
is currently being provided at the following public beaches: Fort Story, Resort
Area (Rudee Inlet to 40th Street), Groatan, Canp Pendleton, Sandbridge and
Little Island Park. This service is provided by two private companies through
three contractual agreements which also give the franchisees, with the
exception of Fort Story that has nonexclusive rights to rent beach equipment
at all areas on the Base. One contract also includes the collection ot parking
fees at a public lot in Sandbridge. The City does not receive these rental or
parking revenues. As a result of all contracts expiring prior to the 1993
Season, the City Manager appointed a Liteguard Contract Committee to review the
existing contracts. The input received from the experiences with these two
companies and in view of the changes since the origination of the contracts all
aspects have been considered in preparation of an RFP for the solicitation of
bids tor the contracts beginning 1993.
Recognizing the changes that have occurred since the present contracts were
initiated and in an effort to encourage corrpetition and maximize the City's
award options, the Lifeguard Contract Committee identified three Request for
Proposal (RFP) scenarios to solicit proposals for services beginning in 1993.
Mr. Edwards cited the tollowing ASSUMPTIONS:
On the basis ot similarities, public beaches with guard
service were divided into two areas. Area One designated as
the Resort Area, would encompass the Resort Area, Fort Story,
Croatan and Camp Pendleton. Area Two, designated as the
Sandbridge Area, would enconpass Sandbridge Beach and Little
Island Park. Two separate RFPs would be solicited.
For ease of administration, Sandbridge Beach parking lot
franchise was removed from the scope ot service to be
solicited. The operation of both City parking lots at
Sandbridge Public Beach will be transferred from Parks and
Recreation to the Parking Systerns Management Office.
To assure the best services for the City, RFP options were
identified.
Mr. Edwards advised the OPTIONS:
Scenario 1: Solicit one RFP tor an offeror to provide
both lifeguard and beach rental services.
Scenario 2: Solicit two RFPS. One RFP would be for an
offeror to provide for I i f eguard serv i ces
and the other RFP would be for an offeror to
provide for beach rentals.
Scenario 3: Solicit one RFP that is structured to allow
proposals to be submitted and evaluated
based on prov i d i ng I i teguard serv 1 ces on I y,
beach renta I s on I y, or both I i teguard and
beach rentals. Award the RFP in the rmnner
that would be in the best interest of the
City.

PUBLIC BEACH LIFEGUARD SERVICES
ITEM # 35930 (Continued)
The Liteguard Contract Committee selected Scenario 3 as a means of providing
certain advantages to the City. Most inportantly, it is felt this type of bid
process will encourge competition and assure the "best deal" for the City in
the provision of these services.
ADVANTAGES OF SCENARIO 3
Cleaner contract oversight by the potential to divide each
component into separate contracts. Thus, Ermrgency Medical
Service (EMS) could oversee only the provision of Lifeguard
services, while Convention and Visitor Development (CVD)
could appropriately assume oversight of the Beach Rental
franchises.
The potential to provide revenue to the City by separating
the two corrponents. It is anticipated that there could be
multiple offerors for the Beach Rental franchises and that
the franchise fees paid to the City may offset the total cost
ot the lifeguard services.
Enhanced flexibility by allowing the City to award each
conponent separately or in the most advantageous combination.
It also allows the ofterors to tailor their bids according to
their needs and capabilities.
Increased coupetition in that offerors who normally would
provide just the beach rental service or just the lifeguard
services will be encouraged to apply.
The option to award the contract to a single offeror who
provides both services.
Scenario 3 provides the greatest flexibility by affording the
most options.
DISADVANTAGES OF SCENARIO 3
There could be more contracts to administer, which might
result in higher costs for contract oversight.
Separating out the lifeguard service from the beach rental
service could dramatically increase the cost tor providing
the lifeguard services. (Under the current system the
contractor retains all revenues from the beach rental
services and uses them to offset cost i n the lifeguard
services with the City reinbursing the contractor for the
remaining costs.)
Separate contracts at these public beaches may create
conflicts between the offeror with the lifeguard service and
the offer with the beach rental franchise.

SUBDIVISION BONDS AND SURETY PROCESS
12:47 P.M.
ITEM # 35931
Robert J. Scott, Director ot Planning, introduced Charles Hassen, Director ot
the Developrmnt Services Genter and Barbara Duke, Administrator of the Surety
Process for the City. Over a sixteen month period, through the detaults of nine
subdivision projects, the City experienced a $100,500 loss, due to insufficient
surety held to coitplete required infrastructure loprovements. A TQM Process
lnprovement Team was formd to study tne surety process for subdivisions. The
project statement was "to decrease the amount ot surety loss to the City of
Virginia Beach by decreasing the number of subdivision pertorronce bonds whose
va I ue f a I I be I ow comp I et i on cost". Us i ng the seven step method tor process
inprovement, the team examined data from defaulted subdivisions to determine if
the short fal I was a special exception, or whether the surety process needed
moditication. The team also evaluated data from nine additional active
subdivisions to see it the same potential tor loss of dol lars existed. Data
from these active projects shows that a potential loss of $339,854 to the City
exists. It a default rate continues, the City has the potential of losing over
a mi I I ion dol lars due to Insufficient surety held for completion cost. The
purpose of the surety process is to guarantee satisfactory performance ot work
within City owned property on a particular subdivision (paven)ent, drainage,
water and sewer, sidewalks, street lights, fire hydrants, et cetera.)
Mr. Scott identified the three forms of Surety: bond, letter of credit or cash
held by the City to ensure corrpletion of required improvements. Performance
Bonds are surety instruments posted by a developer to insure completion of all
improvenients on City approved construction plans. A Defect Bond is a two-year
bonded warranty period where subdivision inprovements have been accepted by the
City. Development Is no longer rapid or extensive. The rate ot default is more
frequent. Upon default, the City, in many cases is holding insufticient surety
to see that the work is properly done to cover the cost of the work that is
being guaranteed.
Mr. Scott cited the tollowing recommendations ot the Surety Process Quality
lnprovement Team:
1. Each departmnt should update their cost index on at least an
annual basis to offset inflation, and the cost index should
be in a cortuterized database tor ease of update. This
database should be made available to the engineering
commmunity. Each department should review its estimating
process and establish consistent procedures based on
realistic costs to the City to complete projects in cases of
default. Requests for reductions in sureties should be
reviewed on the basis of total cost to complete, rather than
reducing by the value of work conpleted. This ensures that
the surety held will always cover the cost of the
inprovements yet to be installed.
2. Subdivision sureties should not be reduced below 80% of total
project cost prior to the project being coapelted and
accepted tor defect. This would require a revision to Section
7.3 of the City's Subdivision Ordinance. Data shows that with
20% held, sufficient surety is available in most cases.
Current City Policy is to allow reductions to 10% of total
project cost.
3. Revise the subdivision agreement to incorporate provisions to
provide for inflationary adjustment ot sureties, recouping ot
administrative costs for defaults and making the issuer of
the surety responsible for conipletion of iryprovements when
the developer defaults. This would take the City out of the
role of becoming the developer when defaults occur. The
priniary cause of insufficient surety being held is that
projects are not being conpleted in a timly manner.
Entorcemnt of the subdivision agreement can prevent this
from happening.

C I T Y M A N A G E R 'S B R I E F I N G
SUBDIVISION BONDS AND SURETY PROCESS
ITEM # 35931 (Continued)
4. Review the process for estiffiating conpletion cost upon
developer default to include cost for administration,
inspection and rework. It is recomrmnded that the City
Attorney investigate the feasibi lity of changing the wording
of subdivision bonds to the sam requirements as CIP
Perfornance Bonds, that require the surety Issuer to conplete
the project should the developer default. If this is not
feasible, it is recommended that all departments review their
cost estimating procedures with regard to completing
defaulted projects to include costs for inflation, rework,
field conditions, changes in material, inspections,
administration, contingencies, debris disposal, mobilization
of equipment and any other recognizable cost that may be
anticipated.
5. Each departmnt which reviews surety estimates and reductions
needs to be part of a couprehensive training system that will
provide staff with knowledge ot the entire surety project5
and how they fit into the overall surety system. A tracking
method to keep abreast ot progress on active projects also
needs to be developed and coordinated by staff which has
training and knowledge ot the surety system.
Mr. Hassen distributed copies of The Surety Process Study which is hereby made
a part of the record. Charts reflecting Defaulted Projects, Amounts for
Default, Additonal Loss Revenue due to Time Length of Development Projects,
Sruety Sanple Data, Subdivision Surety Analysis, Potential for Loss and Public
Utilities Improvements (Estimate Cost Coniparison), are included within this
report.

PUBLIC RECREATIONAL FACILITIES AUTHORITY
1:05 P.M.
ITEM # 35932
E. Dean Block Director - Management and Budget, advised Chapter 29, Section
15.1-1271-15.1-1287 ot the Virginia Code provides for the estabi ishment of a
Publ ic Recreational Faci I ities Authority. This section al lows local ities to
estabi ish an authority which can undertake a wide variety of recreational
faci I ity projects. The authority can be a financing and governance mechanism
for such projects. It allows localities greater flexibility in constructing and
operating certain types of publ ic faci I ities. It does not, in itself, i rrprove
the f inancial feasibi I ity of any given project. The MC)ney must sti I I be
provided by whatever mechanisms are necessary and appropriate. Some projects
may be fu I ly selt-supporting; others may not. Both types can be addressed via
an RFA due to the f lexibi I ity inherent in the legislation, but tunding would
need to be provided to the RFA from an external source for those projects not
self-supporting.
Mr. Block advised the Legal Establ lshnient of a Publ ic Recreational Faci I ities
Authority:
Requires majority vote ot City Council to establish
the authority tollowing a public hearing.
City Counci I appoints members "in the manner and
for the term" provided by the ordinance
establishing the authority.
The authority, once establ ished, is a publ ic body
politic of the Commonwealth.
The Commission elects its own chair and off icers
un I ess otherwise specified in the resolution
establishing the authority.
Purposes of the authority under State Law can be
restricted in the local authorizing
resolution/ordinance.
The authority may be dissolved when its purposes
are fulfilled and all obligations paid.
The structure of an RFA can vary widely-the governing commission can be from
five to seventeen persons in size. Eaployees and officials of the City may
constitute a majority of the Commission, but may not exclusively constitute the
Commission. Mr. Block cited the decisions regarding the composition of the
governing Commission:
1. The need for direct City Counci I participation in
the mrrbership of the commission.
2. The need for representation ot concerned interests
within the comrmnlty.
3. The need tor representation ot useful expertise.
4. Whether or not the RFA should have it5 own staff.
5. The factor of retaining centralized debt
nianagement.

C I T Y M A N A G E R 'S B R I E F I N G
PUBLIC RECREATIONAL FACILITIES AUTHORITY
ITEM # 35932 (Continued)
Mr. Block cited Budget/Financial Considerations:
The RFA cannot issue debt which wi I I i npact on the Charter
Bond Authority ot the City nor pledge the ful I faith and
credit of the City.
There would be some administrative costs associated with the
Authority. Those costs would not be large unless the
Authority has its own statt.
Debt issued through the Authority will not be rated as highly
as the City's General Obligation (Charter) debt and may not
be rated as highly as Certificates of Participation issued
directly by the City.
Debt issued by the Authority will not inpact the City's legal
debt limits. Depending on the self-supporting nature of the
project, debt issued by the Authority may or [my not be
included in credit analysis of the City's overall tax-
supported debt position. For non-self-supporting projects,
RFA debt will rmst likely be included in calculating City
debt Indicators.
The RFA cannot levy a tax nor exercise the power of eminent
donoin.
POWERS OF THE AUTHORITY
The Counci I may iitplement an RFA for such purposes as it
deems appropriate, within the scope of the state law.
The Authority rmst comply with procurement laws.
The City may transfer property to the Authority. Such
transfers are rmst likely to require a three-quarter majority
vote.
The City may lease or lease-back properties/projects from the
Authority.
The Authority may operate projects.
The City Manager can serve as the head or chiet
administrative officer of the Authority.
The City cannot directly secure bonds with a limited tax pledge. The City
cannot issue "Hotel Tax Bonds". Such "general revenue" or "pledgell bonds are
not allowed in Virginia. The Development Authority, as presently constituted,
cannot issue bonds for many of the types ot projects permitted an RFA, nor can
the Development Authority operate projects. The City Council may choose to
directly sell Certiticates of Participation for non-self-supporting projects or
Revenue Bonds for self-supporting projects, which could finance projects which
might otherwise be addressed through the Authority. The advantages and
disadvantages would have to be evaluated on a case-by-case basis and would
include relative cost, legal considerations, market conditions, available
revenues and other considerations. There is no requirement or guarantee that
even if the RFA is established, specific project5 would take place under the
auspices ot the Authority. Each project, or set of projects must ultimately be
evaluated on its own rrierits. Council may consider the desirability of funding
some projects without recourse to the property tax. Many projects can only be
tunded as a practical matter thorugh General Obligation Bonds. It can be
considered whether or not sorne projects can best be understood and accepted it
they are at least partially self-supporting and where necessary, supplemented
by dedicated revenue streams not derived from the property tax.

ITEM # 35932 (Continued)
Mr. Block outlined four alternatives regarding the Public Recreational

menbership I !miting its purposes as permitted by
the State.
Establ ish RFA with ful I City Counci I meffbership
plus additional appointments (up to 4) as

SUBJ: Write-off of Bad Debt - Fiscal Year 1986-1987
This memo will document some of the administrative procedures
employed to collect accounts as follows:
A. A check is made to determine if any customer security deposit
exists that could be applied against the amount due.
B. A check is made by comparison of names and social security
numbers to determine if any final billed account can be
transferred to an active account with the same customer at a
different address. If the same customer has opened an account at
another address, the outstanding balance is transferred.
C. Two progressive computer generated collection notices are sent
to the customer. In addition, a collection letter program
provides notice to the customer of our intent to proceed with
legal action.
D. Legal action is commenced with the filing of a Warrant in Debt
in the small claims or General District Court. In addition, the
City Attorney's Office is provided with an Aged Trail Balance of
year old accounts after the close of each fiscal year.
E. The State's Set-Off Debt Collection Program continues to be
utilized to recover an average of mcre than $50,000 annually from
a customer's State Income Tax Refund.
our collection notification procedures are a uniform process
standard in the utility business. Yet, this Department enhanced
that process in July of 1988 with a contihuous progressive
collection letter and Warrant in Debt program.
I would hope this info rmation is sufficient documentation for
your office to proceed with a recommendation of the write-off of
this Department's uncollectible debts for the fiscal year of
1986-1987.

Re: R91/92-1
Dear Mr. Watts:
We have applied procedures to test the Public Utili-@ies
Department accounts receivable billed during the fiscal year ended
June 30, 1987. Public Utilities intends to seek Ci-ty Couhcil
approval prior to June 30, 1992 to write off these delinaue.,it
accounts.
The 2,409 debit ba'lance accounts amount to $231,691.12. This
total has been adjusted for three accounts in the amount of $221.67
which were paid.
ou.r audit procedures included sending confirmation letters and
second requests to a sample group cf 131 customers totalling
$37,419.38, or 16.14% of the total. We received two payments, one
account paid through the State Debt Set-off and six exceptions were
submitted to Public utilities for follow-up. We were unable to
obtain responses from the remainder of our sample group.
in our opinicn, these accounts receivable billed durinu the
fiscal year ended June 30, 1987 amounting to $231,691.12 shoui-d be
written off..
Respectfully submitted,

RE: Public Utilities Bad Debt Write Offs
Dear Mr. Spore:
Public Utilities intends to seek City Council approval prior
to June 30, 1992 to write off delinquent accounts receivable. The
2@',--42D @@debft balance accounts totalling $237,529.22 were billed
during the fiscal year ended June 30, 1988 and Public Utili-ties
deems them uncollectible.
In previous years, we sent audit confirmation letters to a
sampling of delinquent accounts receivable billed during the fisr-al
years ended June 30, 1984, 1985, 1986 and 1987. As a result of C)ur
tests, we concluded that the accounts were in fact uncollectible
and should be written off.
In early 1991, we reviewed and tested Public Utilities' system
to collect accounts receivable (Audit R90/91 - 9). We sent audit
confirmation letters to a sampling cf delinquent accounts which
were billed during the twelve months ended March 31, 1991. As a
result of our review and tests, we were satisfied that the system
to collect accounts receivable is adequate.
In determining the appropriateness of confirming receivables
with individual customers before the acccunts are written off by
Council, we consider all avail:@ble audit evidence. The objective
of performing confirmation procedures is to obtain independent
evidence from persons who are in a position to make informed
representations. Confirmation procedures are used when suf@-icient
internal evidence is not relevant and reliable and the cost of
performing the procedures does not exceed the benefits.

We determined that audit confirmation letters sent to a
sampling of the current group of delinquent accounts receivable
billed during the fiscal year ended June 30, 1988 would not be cost
effective-i In our opinion, based on our evaluation of Public
Utilities' collection procedures and the results of our tests in
prior years, these accounts receivable billed during the fiscal
year ended lT2ne@@,-30,@,.@r@19&84 amounting to $237,529.22-@ should be
submitted to Council for write off.

Re: Certificate of Title
our File No. 8811
DESCRIPTION: Portion of a Fifteen Foot Alley running
between Lot Nos. 4 & 5 in Block No. Twenty (20) on the
map entitled "Chautauqua by the Seal', recorded in Map
Book 1, at page 1B, and Lot Nos. 16 & 17 in Block
Twenty (20) on the plat of "Croatan Beach", recorded in
Map Book 24, at page 37, in the Clerk's Office of the
Circuit Court of the City of Virginia Beach, Virginia;
reference to which is hereby made.
Dear Mr. Hay:
After reviewing the recorded instruments pertinent to the
captioned property, I have altered my opinion with regard to the
title to the fee in the alley described hereinabove. It is my
opinion that the adjoining property owners acquired title by the
City's closure of the alley as adjacent landowners, and not by
acquisition of the fee simple interest in the street from a third
party. It therefore appears to us that the fee in the streets is
owned by the City of Virginia Beach, and that direct purchase
thereof from the City will vest title in the adjacent landowners,
since the alley has already been closed.
Many thanks.

WHEREAS, the Grantee's policy is to provide only for
the orderly development of land for various purposes through
zoning and other land development legislation; and
WHEREAS, the Grantor acknowledges that the competing
and sometimes incompatible development of various types of
uses conflict and that in order to permit differing types of
uses on and in the area of the Property and at the same time
to recognize the effects of change that will be created by
the Grantor's proposed re-zoning, certain reasonable
conditions governing the use of the Property for the
protection of the community that are not generally applicable
to land similarly zoned are needed to resolve the situation
to which the Grantor's rezoning application gives rise; and
WHEREAS, the Grantor has voluntarily proffered, in
writing, in advance of and prior to the public hearing before
the Grantee, as a part of the proposed amendment to the Zoning
Map with respect to the Property, the following reasonable
q physical develoPm8nt, operationp and
conditions related to th

Now, THEPEFORE, the Grantor,.for themselves, their
successors, personal representatives, assigns, grantees, and
other successors in title or interest, voluntarily and without
any requireadent by or exaction from the Grantee or its

will be closed at such time as it is developed.
3. Access to the site will be made available via

site plan approval of any portion of the property.
s. if dedications and or improvements proffered in
paragraph 4 herein are not used by the Gr antee
anytime within the next twenty years for the
purpose for which they are proffered, then such

used by the City for any other public purpose.
The above conditions, having been proffered by the

amendment to the zoning ordinance, shall continue in full
force and effect until a subsequent amendment changes the
zoning of the Property and specifically repeals such
conditions. Such conditions shall continue despite a
subsequent amendment to the zoning ordinance even if the

Virginia, 1950, as amended. Said ordinance or resolution
shall be recorded along with said instrument as cdnclusive
evidence of such consent, and if not so recorded, said

UNFINiSHED BUSINESS ITEM # 35962
By the utilization of slides, Arthur R. Shaw, City Engineer, presented
i nf or mation re l at ive the unauthor i zed f i II of Robert Fri ed man at 1 12 Mi chael
Wood Drive. A double ti Iter barrier with straw bales in place is a perfectly
standard and acceptab I e manner of tenporary erosi on control as we I I as 97%
etfective. However, when this tence was just a single fence, it was overwhel@d
and material in large quantities did get through the tence and into the
Lynnhaven River Tributary.
The fill material came trom a Public Utilities contractor which was instal ling
sewer and water lines into the Lynnwood/Michael Wood Area (Project 2A). The
prime contractor was Suburban Grading and Utilities with the subcontractor
being LMR Construction Coupany. LMR Construction made a private agreement with
Mr. Friedman to dispose of the excess material by dumping the fill on Mr.
Friedman's property. Mr. Friedman advised receiving n)ore material than
contracted.
Mr. Shaw advised the following Ordinances have been violated:
Section 6.151 of the City Code
Section 30-71 of the City Code
Section 1203 of the City Zoning Ordinance
Section 106 of the Chesapeake Bay Preservation Area
Ordinance
The City Staff had made the assuniption this was not a "willful" act and there
was no eminent danger.
On May 28, 1992, a "cease and detest" letter was forwarded to the homeowner to
stabilize the ground, erect erosion controlling devices, immediately remove all
of the material and restore the site or request an after-the-fact permit from
the City. A followup letter was forwarded on June 11, 1992. Also, following the
breeching of the first silt fence, an order was issued requiring the silt be
removed and a second silt fence be installed. On June 17, 1992, the owner
submitted an application for an "after-the-fact" permit. The application was
not complete and sent back to the applicant. The homeowner was reminded of a
requirement to appear before the Chesapeake Bay Preservation Board. Mr.
Friedman had to have an application to them prior to July 24, 1992. A week
later, Mr. Friedman resubmitted his application. This application was still
incornplete and had not answered many of the questions for which the statf had
requested compliance from the first rejection. Mr. Friedman was given fifteen
days to resubmit the application. Mr. Friedman failed to resubmit his
application. The City Staft forwarded a final letter to notify him of his
failure to comply with previous direction and giving him ten days in which to
submit. If he ta! led to do so, the matter would be turned over to the City
Attorney's Office. This Certified Letter was returned from the owner "REFUSED".
Mr. Shaw advised informal information had been received from the owner that he
intends to remove mdst of the fill material.
The following spoke relative siltation of a Lynnhaven River Tributary:

A RESOLUTION CALLING UPON THE VIRGINIA
CONGRESSIONAL DELEGATION TO OPPOSE PROPOSED
FEDERAL FUNDING REDUCTIONS FOR URBAN AREA
CAPITAL AND OPERATING ASSISTANCE TO THE
TIDEWATER TRANSPORTATION DISTRICT COMMISSION.
WHEREAS, transit services are of vital importance to a
community, especially an urbanized city such as Virginia Beach, and
are an essential element of a balanced transportation system; and
WHEREAS, citizens use transit services to access the
important activities of their daily lives; and
WHEREAS, experience demonstrates that cuts in transit
services and/or increases in fares deter riders from use of transit
and hinder transit system effectiveness and efficiency; and
WHEREAS, the financial partnership of the Federal and
State governments with local transit providers such as the
Tidewater Transportation District Commission have been a critical
element in the provision of transit service; and
WHEREAS, the Federal government is contemplating a
reduction of 6% in urbanized area formula capital assistance, as
well as a reduction of 10% in urbanized area operating assistance;
and
WHEREAS, local governments are ill-equipped financially
to make up shortfalls caused by declines in State and Federal
assistance;
NOW THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED that the Council of the
city of Virginia Beach:
Deplores the prospective cuts in urbanized area capital
and operating assistance being contemplated by the U.S.
congress as running directly counter to the national and local
goals of achieving balanced transportation opportunities and
a better environment, and
is of the opinion that the direct result of the proposed
cuts in Federal assistance will be a decrease in transit
ridership and the subsequent decrease in the viability of
transit systems, and
Believes such ill-considered cuts will inevitably create
a greater hardship on those transit dependent riders who can
least absorb such blows, and
Calls upon the Virginia Congressional delegation to exert
every effort to oppose the proposed cuts in urbanized area
formula capital assistance and urbanized area operating
assistance, and requests that if the funding is cut at the
Federal level, that the Commonwealth of Virginia not reduce
its funding to Tidewater Regional Transportation, and
Directs the City Clerk to convey this Resolution to the
Virginia Congressional Delegation, the Virginia Beach General
Assembly Delegation and the members of the Tidewater
Transportation District Commission.
Adopted by the Council of the City of Virginia Beach,
