ITEM # 29005
Vice Mayor Oberndorf referenced the Meeting of the Energy, Environment and
Natural Resources Steering Committee of the NATIONAL LEAGUE OF CITIES. Because
of the enormous problems found in the northeast and not being able to handle
the garbage appropriately, their legislatures are passing various types of
mandated legislation at the Federal level with absolutely no funding to
accompany same thus impacting the localities. The least amount of money that is
being expended to dispose of garbage in Connecticut, New York and Rhode Island
is $60.00 a ton. Those localities which are members of SPSA are paying $23.00 a
ton. Vice Mayor Oberndorf brought back the names and addresses of those areas
interested in what the City is doing with Mount Trashmore II and what has been
accomplished with Mount Trashmore I, as well as information relative Automated
Refuse Collection. The representative from EPA stated the Federal Government
has reversed its position again and has decided the waste needs to be totally
controlled and, therefore, will require curb side sorting of garbage. Colored
glass will be sorted from the clear glass, newspapers and magazines separately,
and aluminum cans from metal cans. Some of the localities have been successful
with about one-third of their waste stream being controlled by recycling. It
does not rule out the fact that incineration of garbage must be investigated as
well as providing for the burial of the ash. The Public Works Director from the
City of Indianapolis was in attendance and presented information relative their
Resource Recovery Plant. The lagoons that held the sludge from the waste water
treatment are being relined and utilized to bury the ash from the Resource
Recovery Plant. The sludge from the tanks is being burned.

ITEM # 29006
Mayor Jones referenced the HOMELESS and his discussion with the Coalition
regarding SCHEDULING on today's City Council Agenda to enable City Council to
understand the dimensions of the problem. The Coalition was unable to attend
and suggested the City Council Meeting of March 28, 1988. The Mayor because of
a very long Planning Agenda, suggested the first week of April, but this was
not satisfactory to the Coalition.
ITFM # 29007
Mayor Jones referenced the Transportation and Communications Steering Committee
of the NATIONAL LFAGUE OF CITIES Meeting. Mayor Jones advised the general
pattern is clear the Federal Government is looking for the localities to carry
more responsibility with less money. The Cable issue will probably resurface
again in a year or so. The legislation was passed that enabled them to
increase 5% a year forever on their revenues, which really caught most
individuals unaware. As there is some concern throughout the Country, this
legislation might be reviewed. The major discussion is in the transportation
issues. Several years ago, there was instituted a 5cts tax increase on all
gasoline sold in the Country, 4cts was to go toward road construction and 1cts to
mass transit. What is happening is those funds are not being expended and the
trust fund is now over $10-MILLION and it is growing at $1.2-BILLION a year.
There seems to be very little incentive in either the Legislative or Executive
Branch to retrieve these funds for spending. In the meantime, the road system
in the Country continues to deteriorate. There is also approximately $5-BILLION
in the Airport Trust Fund. So, these things are carried on in the Federal
Budget as a means of reflecting a smaller deficit than is actually being
incurred.
In the Mass Transit Budget, there is a 50% cut in funds to Mass Transit
Systems but an increase in the administrative budget. There is less monev to
administer but yet all receive an increase in salary, then the funds that are
not spent for mass transit again grows in the Trust Account.
It will impact also any local programs the City might have in mind for Mass
Transit, the availability funding for any type of light rail and even
enhancements in the bus system.
This will also impact any local programs for mass transit

ITEM # 29008
Councilman Fentress advised garbage, trash, refuge is taken to the solid waste
disposal and the City pays so much a ton. Councilman Fentress understands
individuals cannot take solid waste in their own truck and dump it, which means
that this refuge is possibly being dumped on vacant lots. There is one
individual who owns much property and spends considerable time attempting to
keep his lots clean. Some individuals are saying the City prevents them from
utilizing these disposals.
The City Manager will provide a report relative same.
ITEM # 29009
Councilman Perry advised this was very apparent in the TARGET AREAS. Kathleen
Hassen had advised Councilman Perry the City was in possession of names of
Companies dumping on Connie Lane and that are under Court Injunction, but still
had not discontinued this practice.
ITEM # 29010
Councilman Fentress advised he represented City Council over the weekend
speaking to 38 Japanese young women from the largest Woman's University in
Mukogawa outside of Osaka and presented each with a LOGO pins. Dr. Hamada at
ODU interpreted. He is recognized worldwide as the top man in the Marshall
Arts. Dr. Hamada co-ordinates with James DeBellis, Director of Economic
Development, on many projects.
ITEM # 29011
Councilman Fentress advised the Department of Housing and Urban Development
appropriated an additional $75-MILLION for the homeless assistance and it is
available for State and Localities. Councilman Fentress hopes the City Staff
can assist these non-profit groups in procuring grants. This is a problem that
is not going away and the City's position must be determined.
ITEM # 29012
Councilwoman Parker is endeavoring with Dr. Hamada and the Chamber of Commerce
on the formulation of a Japanese sister City and is incurring good progress.
The concept is being developed to determine if there is support throughout the
Community.
ITEM # 29013
Councilman Fentress complimented Channel 29. Councilwoman Fentress inquired
relative the possibility of a newsclip with particular information on the City
be placed on the regular Channels. This would be for those individuals who are
unfortunate not to have Cable TV.

CITY MANAGER REPORTS
INSPECTIONS OF RESTAURANTS ITEM 29020
Dr. William Crawford, State Health Department, in conjunction with Betty
Rouse, Resident Epidemiologist, Dr. George Sjolund, Director of the City
Health Department and Sharon K. Prescott, Sanitarian Manager, reiterated
information relative INSPECTIONS OF RESTAURANTS.
There are two types of Hepatitis:
Hepatitis A - highly contagious, mild, spread through
improper hygiene
Hepatitis B - less contagious, spread by sexual
contact or by blood.
Obstructive Jaundice - secondary to a tumor or a stone in the
common duct.
The first case involved an individual at TACO BELL. There were indications that
this individual could suffer from Hepatitis B. The diagnosis for Hepatitis B
was negative and it was another two weeks before a Check was made relative
Hepatitis A and reported to the Health Department. This delay in time has
resulted in problems. As far as Hepatitis A is concerned, the State believes a
fair amount in background has gone unreported. It is required to be reported by
the physicians, but is not required to be reported by the laboratory. It will
be the recommendation to the Board of Health that Hepatitis be included as
reportable diseases from the laboratories. Hepatitis A is common in day care
centers and written off primarily as one of the childhood diseases as only a
small percentage of those children become jaundiced.
The Center for Disease Control in Atlanta, Georgia, reports each year that at
least 1,000 plus foodhandlers have contracted Hepatitis A. However, only 4 or 5
outbreaks occur. Therefore, personal hygiene among the foodhandlers seems to
be quite adequate. Virginia Beach is not alone. There is currently a food
outbreak of Hepatitis A in Ashville, North Carolina reporting over 60 cases. In
Louisville, Kentucky, the City is currently faced with an outbreak of over 150
cases. It has not been determined whether same is food borne as a number of the
restaurants in downtown Louisville are involved. Lawton, Oklahoma has reported
one which involves one individual who apparently cooked sequentially in four
(4) restaurants and patrons in each of the four restaurants came down with the
disease.
Dr. William Crawford advised if the Health Department is going to undertake
constant surveillance, an inspector would be needed constantly to observe. Tf
there are 1200 plus food services, it would require two shifts of 2400
sanitarians plus 1200 sanitarians for relief, which would entail a cost of
approximately $72-MILLION a year. This would not be cost-effective.
The State Health Department recommended a Food Managers Certification, which
currently in Northern Virginia entails a cost of $53-00. With 3600 managers,
this would require a total cost of less than $200,000. The Certification would
be for three years. These individuals are quality control, on duty at all
times. The State Health Department recommends this move expeditiously. The
benefits from this program have increased the awareness and education of the
Managers as well as decreasing the time of inspections necessary by the local
Health Department. The overall level of sanitation has improved.
Sharon Prescott, advised if the individual has a valid foodhandlers card, same
may be renewed by taking a test. This is a concession to professional
foodhandlers, so they do not have to continually take the test.

Item IV-F.1
CITY MANAGER REPORTS
INSPECTIONS OF RESTATJRANTS ITEM # 29020 (Continued)
Kal Kassir, President of the Virginia Beach Restaurant Association, advised of
the concern relative food borne illnesses of the owners, managers and employees
of the food service operations. The Virginia Beach Restaurant Association has
been working with the Health Department to improve and update Ordinances and
regulations which relate to foodhandling certification. This process predates
the current outbreak of Hepatitis A and is being pursued with vigor and all due
speed. Hepatitis does not discriminate as to whether or not the foodhandler
works in the produce, deli or salad bar of a grocery or convenience store or at
a restaurant. The public paid $13-1/2-MILLION in extra taxes at restaurants,
convenience stores and other food service operations. Kal Kassir requested
consistency and uniformity in certification of food handlers.
Dr. Sjolund advised there are 71 cases in the City of Virginia Beach, 48 of
which are related to the index case (TACO BELL). The rest are background cases.
At this point there is a downturn from the initial case. Individuals who have
contacted Hepatitis A are forever immune.

COMMITTEE REPORT ITEM # 29021
Bartow (Pat) H. Bridges, Jr., Chairman, City's Appearance Task Force, advised
the City's Appearance Task Force has been working diligently toward the
worthwhile goal of causing Virginia Beach to be recognized as the "Most
Beautiful City in the United States" by the year 2,000. Many of the criticisms
made by the public are addressed by existing ordinances Two major problems
reduce the effectiveness of existing ordinances: (1) Ignorance by the public of
the existence of such ordinances and an accompanying ignorance of the mechanics
of initiating a solution to the problems; and, (2) Inadequate staff enforcement
of problems which are addressed by existing ordinances. The City's Appearance
Task Force is divided into four (4) committees:
LEGAL - Chairman John Y. Richardson
HORTICULTURE AND LANDSCAPING - Chairman Shirley Elstrodt
HIGHWAYS - Chairman Arthur L. Collins
PUBLIC OPEN SPACE AND WATERWAYS - Chairman William M. Davenport
Attorney John Richardson advised of the three (3) GOALS of the LEGAL COMMITTEE:
I. To provide the regulatory framework necessary
to improve the appearance of developed areas
of the City of Virginia Beach, particularly
along major streets and resort areas.
II. To improve the quality of new development
within existing constitutional and state-law
framework.
III. To establish a sound legal basis in support of
new ordinances implementing Task Force
proposals.
Shirley Elstrodt, Chairman, outlined the Report of the HORTICULTURAL AND
LANDSCAPING COMMITTEE. The GOALS were itemized as follows:
I. To identify and landscape highly visible
strategic areas as well as screen the less
desirable unsightly areas.
II. To encourage and coordinate increased use of
color with a city annual flower program.
III. Increase education and awareness in schools
and community on horticultural subjects.
IV. To increase the number of trees in Virginia
Beach, especially larger growing varieties.
V. Unify all organizations.

CITY MANAGER REPORTS
BEAUTIFICATION COMMITTEE
REPORT TTEM # 29021 (Continued)
Arthur L. Collins, Chairman, HIGHWAYS COMMITTEE, advised the proposed
SOUTHF,ASTERN EXPRESSWAY Project will be a six - expandable to eight - lane
limited access highway which will connect Route 44 (The Virginia Beach Toll
Road) in the vicinity of Oceana NAS to I-64 in Chesapeake, somewhere in the
vicinity of I-464. This project, as well as the other highway corridors, can
provide an excellent vehicle for reducing and enhancing the visual blight in
the City.
The GOALS are as follows:
I. To make the proposed Southeastern Expressway
an aesthetically pleasing and functional
highway facility.
II. To beautify and improve aesthetics for all
existing and new arterial highways, parkways
and collector streets in the City of Virginia
Beach.
III. To improve and provide aesthetics for existing
and future State limited access highways in
the City of Virginia Beach.
William M. Davenport, Chairman, presented the report of the PUBLIC OPEN SPACE
AND WATERWAYS COMMITTEE. The GOALS are as follows:
Back Bay and its environs lie wholly within the boundaries of the City of
Virginia Beach. Within the next decade, development pressures will mount and
the urbanization of northern Virginia Beach will begin to spill over into the
Back Bay/North Landing River watershed and the predominantly rural areas of
Southern Virginia Beach.
I. Maintain the highest standards of water
quality for preserving the naturally occurring
plants, animals, and marine life for
recreational, ecological and aesthetic
purposes.
II. Insure an orderly, appropriate and wise use of
the land within the watershed to maintain the
highest level of water quality and to preserve
as much as possible the natural landscape for
the use and enjoyment of future generations.
Virginia Beach is located at the confluence of the Lynnhaven River, the
Chesapeake Bay, and the Atlantic Ocean. It is the framework of these water
bodies that provide the physical and economic foundation for the City and,
within which, countless opportunities and constraints to City growth have been
presented. Waterways and wetlands in the Lynnhaven watershed are so extensive
throughout the urbanized area that they have assumed the critical role of storm
water outfalls, thus becoming increasing polluted and abiotic.
I. Maintain high standards of water quality for
primary recreational contact, oyster
harvesting, fishing, and existing storm water
management functions.
IT. Link, unify, and expand existing public open
space for increased visibility, usability and
functionability.
The PRELIMINARY REPORT of the CITY'S APPEARANCE TASK FORCE was distributed to
City Council and is hereby made a part of the record.

228 presence of a drug or drugs other than alcohol, the test results
229 shall be admissible only if other competent evidence has been
230 presented to relate the presence of drug or drugs to the
231 impairment of the accused's ability to drive or operate any motor
232 vehicle, engine or train safely. The failure of an accused to
233 permit a sample of his blood or breath to be taken for a chemical
234 test to deterrnine the alcoholic or drug content of his blood is
235 not evidence and shall not be subject to comment by the
236 prosecution at the trial of the case, except in rebuttal; nor

238 accused be evidence or the subject of comment by the prosecution,
239 except in rebuttal.
240 fnf(j) The form referred to in subsection (c) of this
241 section shall contain a brief statement of the law requiring the
242 taking of a blood or breath or both blood and breath samples and
243 the penalty for refusal, a declaration of refusal and lines for
244 the signature of the person from whom the blood or breath or both
245 blood and breath sample is sought, the date and the signature of
246 a witness to the signing. If such person refuses or fails to
247 execute such declaration, the committing justice, clerk or
248 assistant clerk shall certify such fact, and that the committing
249 justice, clerk or assistant clerk advised the person arrested
250 that such refusal or failure, if found to be unreasonable,
251 constitutes grounds for the revocation of such person's license
252 to drive. The committing or issuing justice, clerk or assistant
253 clerk shall forthwith issue a warrant charging the person
2 5 4 refusing to take the test to determine the alcoholic or drug or
7
2 5 5 both alcoholic and drug content of his blood with violation of
2 56 this section. The warrant shall be executed in the same manner
257 as criminal warrants. Venue for the trial of the warrant shall
2 58 lie in the court of the city in which the offense of driving
259 under the influence of intoxicants is to be tried.
260 fet(k) The executed declaration of refusal or the
261 certificate of the committing justice, as the case may be, shall
262 be attached to the warrant and shall be forwarded by the
263 committing justice, clerk or assistant clerk to the court in
264 which the offense of driving under the influence of intoxicants
265 shall be tried.
266 fpf(l) When the court receives the declaration of
267 refusal or certificate referred to in subsection fet (k) of this
268 section, together with the warrant charging the defendant with
269 refusing to submit to having a sample of his blood or breath or
270 both blood and breath taken for the determination of the
271 alcoholic or drug or both alcoholic and drug content of his
272 blood, the court shall fix a date for the trial of such warrant,
273 at such time as the court shall designate, but subsequent to the
274 defendant's criminal trial for driving under the influence of
275 intoxicants. Upon request, the defendant shall be granted a
276 trial be PI jury on appeal to the circuit court.
277 fqt(m) The declaration of refusal or certificate under
278 subsection fef(k), as the case may be, shall be prima facie
279 evidence that the defendant refused to submit to the taking of a
280 sample of his blood or breath or both blood and breath to
281 determine the alcoholic or drug or both alcoholic and drug
282 content of his blood as provided hereinabove. However, this
283 shall not be deemed to prohibit the defendant from introducing,
284 on his behalf, evidence of the basis for his refusal to submit to
285 the taking of a sample of his blood or breath or both blood and
286 breath to determine the alcoholic or drug or both alcoholic and
287 drug content of his blood. The court shall determine the
288 reasonableness of such refusal.
289 frt(n) If the court or jury finds the defendant guilty
290 as charged in the warrant issued under this section, the court
8
291 shall suspend the defendant's license for a period of six (6)
29 2 months for a first offense and for one year for a second or
293 subsequent offense or refusal within one year of the first or
294 other such refusals. The time shall be computed as follows: The
295 date of the first offense and the date of the second or
296 subsequent offense; however, if the defendant pleads guilty to a
297 violation of section 21-336, the court may dismiss the warrant.
298 fsf(o) The court shall forward the defendant's license
299 to the commissioner of the division of motor vehicles of Virginia
300 as in other cases of similar nature for suspension of license,
301 unless the defendant appeals his conviction. In such case the
30 2 court shall return the license to the defendant upon his appeal
303 being perfected.
304 ftt @ The procedure for appeal and trial shall be the
305 same as provided by law for misdemeanors; if requested by either
306 party, trial by jury shall be as provided in article 4 of chapter
307 15 (section 19.2-260, et seq.) of title 19.2, Code of Virginia,
308 and the city shall be required to prove its case beyond a
309 reasonable doubt.
310 f tit (q) No person arrested for a violation of section
311 21-336 shall be required to execute, in favor of any person or
312 corporation, a waiver or release of liability in connection with
313 the withdrawal of blood and as a condition precedent to the
314 withdrawal of blood as provided for herein.
315 fvt(r) The court or the jury trying the case shall
316 determine the innocence or the guilt of the defendant from all
317 the evidence concerning his condition at the time of the alleged
318 offense.
319 fw1/2(rl) Chemical analysis of a person's breath, to be
320 considered valid under the provisions of this section, shall be
321 performed by an individual possessing a valid license from the
322 ddivision to conduct such tests, with a type of equipment and in
323 accordance with the methods approved by the ddivision. Such
324 breath-testing equipment shall be tested for its accuracy by the
325 ddivision at least once every six (6) months. Any individual
326 conducting a breath test under the provisions of this section and
9
327 as authorized by the ddivision shall issue a certificate, which
328 will indicate that the test was conducted in accordance with the
329 manufacturer's specifications, the equipment on which the breath
330 test was conducted has been tested within the past six (6)
3 3 1 months and has been found to be accurate, the name of the
332 accused, the date, the time the sample was taken from the
333 accused, the alcoholic content of the sample and by whom the
334 sample was examined. Such certificate, when duly attested by the
335 authorized individual conducting the breath test, shall be
336 admissible in any court in any criminal or civil proceeding as
337 evidence of the facts therein stated and of the results of such
338 analysis. Any such certificate of analysis purporting to be
339 signed by a person authorized by the ddivision shall be
340 admissible in evidence without proof of seal or signature of the
341 person whose name is signed to it. The officer making the
342 arrest, or anyone with him at the time of the arrest, or anyone
343 participating in the arrest of the accused, if otherwise
344 qualified to conduct such test as provided by this section, may
345 make the breath test or analyze the results thereof. A copy of
346 such certificate shall be forthwith delivered to the accused.
347 fxt(s) The steps set forth in this section relating to
348 the taking, handling, identification and disposition of blood or
349 breath samples are procedural in nature and not substantive.
350 Substantial compliance therewith shall be deemed to be
351 sufficient. Failure to comply with any one or more of such steps
352 or portions thereof, or a variance in the results of the two (2)
353 blood tests, shall not, of itself, be ground for finding the
354 defendant not guilty, but shall go the weight of the evidence and
355 shall be considered as set forth above with all the evidence in
356 the case, provided that the defendant shall have the right to
357 introduce evidence on his own behalf to show noncompliance with
358 the aforesaid procedure or any part thereof, and that, as a
359 result, his rights were prejudiced.

INTER-OFFICE CORRESPONDENCE
DATE: February 29, 1988
TO: Ruth Hodges Smith 1. DEPT: City Clerk
ay@
FROM: Aubrey V. Watts, Jr. DEPT: City Manager
RE: School Board Budget
I recently received a reply to my November 13, 1987 letter
whereupon I requested the Commonwealth Attorney's opinion
regarding whether my reviewing and reconunending the School
Board's budget might be a conflict of interest under the Conflict
of Interests Act. Mr. Sciortino's letter dated February 26, 1988
indicates that I may have a personal interest in a transaction if
I make recommendations to City Council concerning the School
Board budget by reason of my wife being employed as a school
teacher by the Virginia Beach School system. However, the
Co=onwealth's Attorney opined that if I comply with the
declaration requirements of SS2.1-639.14E of the Code of Virginia,
which disclosure allows me to lawfully review and make
recommendations to City Council under certain circumstances,
there will be no conflict of interest violation. Accordingly,
pursuant to SS2.1-639.14E of the Code of Virginia, I make the
following declaration:
1. As chief executive officer of the City of Virginia
Beach, I have a duty and responsibility to the citizens of
Virginia Beach and City Council to review and make various
tecommendations regarding the School Board budget and I intend to
carry out said duties as fairly and faithfully as I can; and
2. My wife is a teacher in the Virginia Beach school
system; and
3. My wife, as a teacher in a profession, occupation and
group along with several hundred other teachers, could possibly
be affected by City Council's ultimate vote on the School Board
budget; and
4. I am able to present and recommend a budget regarding
the School Board fairly, objectively and in the public interest
TO: Ruth Hodges Smith
FROM: Aubrey V. Watts, Jr.
RE: School Board Budget
DATE: February 29, 1988

even though my wife is one of many teachers within the school
system.
Accordingly, I respectfully request that you record this
declaration in the official records of the City Council. Also, by
copy of this memo to Mr. Sciortino, I hereby apprise him of my
adherence to his op4.nion. If Mr. Sciortino feels that further
disclosure is necessary in order that.I may abide by his
interpretation of the law concerning this matter, I hereby
request that he notify me immediately.
Thank you and Mr. Sciortino for your assistance and
cooperation in this matter.

21 WHEREAS, in February of 199@, the City of Virginia Beach
22 advertised three (3) Requests for Proposals for a franchise(s) to

24 of the public beach adjacent to the Atlantic Ocean, known as Fort
25 Story, the Resort Area (from 40th Street to Rudee Inlet),
26 Croatan, and Camp Pendleton,in consideration for the provision of
27 lifeguard and other services and for such other good and valuable
28 consideration to which the City and the grantee may agree; and
29 WHEREAS, on March 2, 1988, the City received one proposal in
30 response to one of the three (3) Requests for Proposals that were
31 advertised; and
32 WHEREAS, the only proposal that was received came from
33 Virginia Beach Lifesaving Services, Inc. (VBLS), and was in
34 response to RFP #9984 which RFP requested proposals for a
35 franchise to conduct beach equipment rental operations, where
36 authorized, along certain portions of the entire public beach
37 referenced herein; and
38 WHEREAS, the proposal from VBLS was opened and reviewed, and
39 the committee organized to review and evaluate the proposal was
40 unanimously concerned about the proposed "bottom line" cost to
41 the City for the provision of lifeguard services; and
42 WHEREAS, in an effort to reach a compromise with VBLS that
43 would render the proposal acceptable to the City, a negotiation
44 session was scheduled; and
45 WHEREAS, the negotiation session was held on March 15, 1988;
46 and
47 WHEREAS, the cost to the City was reduced to some degree
48 during the negotiation session, but not enough to be acceptable

54 WHEREAS, City staff has concluded and recommended that

58 WHEREAS, City staff has further concluded and recommended,
59 after mature consideration of the financial and safety factors
60 involved, that the city can provide municipal lifeguard services

68 full-time temporary positions; and
69 WHEREAS, it is further estimated that $100,000 will be
70 generated in FY 1987-1988 from the revenues derived from the
71 rental of beach equipment; and
72 WHEREAS, the remainder of $391,308 will have to be
73 appropriated as a loan from the General Fund fund balance; and
74 WHEREAS, the Parks and Recreation operating Budget for FY
75 1988-1989 will require an adjustment by the creation of an
