ITEM # 28672
Mayor Jones advised he had conferred with the City Manager relative the
restructuring of the AGENDA by concentrating tlle Planning Items in separate
meetings. Beginning in March, Planning Items will be SCHEDULED on the Second
and Fourth Meetings of the month. There will be no Plann-@ng Items SCHEDULED for
the First and Third Meetings of tlie month.
Mayor Jones advised the City Cierk had prepared a Listing of the 1987 Time in
Session which depicted over one-half of the total meeting ti-me was allocated to
Planning Items. The 14ayor believed this did have the effect o,' "short changing"
some of the other items.
As soon as a CONSENSUS is derived on changes in the format, same will be
accomplished. The idea is flexibility.

VI C E MAYOR' S C ON C E R N S
ITEM # 28673
Vice Mayor Oberndorf referenced her letter to the City Manager dated January
13, 1988, which is basically a f ollow-up to ' the Vice Mayor's 'phone
conversation with the City Manager and Messrs Ricketts and Barton of the City's
Tourism Bureau. (Said letter is hereby made a part of the record).
Vice Mayor Oberndorf requested an in-depth study by the City's Staff relative
the possibility of a GRAND PRIX race to be held at the Oceanfront.
Vice Mayor Oberndorf advised she was familiar with the Detroit experience.
There was a commitment partnership between the public and private sector. The
corporations in Detroit invested $5-MILLION to assist the concept. The GRAND
PRIX has filled the hotels in Detroit's downtown area and is taking advantage
of their already existing tourist areas
Vice Mayor Oberndorf requested the City Council's support in requesting an
in-depth study. In addition to the cost benefit ratio, the Vice Mayor wished
the positive and negative aspects also be addressed. Street Races or Oval Races
are held not only in Detroit, Michigan, but Long Beach, California; Miami,
Florida; Dallas, Texas; Niagara Falls, New York; St. Petersburg, Florida; West
Palm Beach, Florida; Columbus, Ohio; Tampa, Florida; Delmar, California and San
Antonio, Texas.
The Vice @,layor stated that Patti Phillips, Director of Research, and her staff
do a magnificent job of investigating all concerns. Therefore, outsi-de
consultants should not be necessary.
ESPN broadcasts the original races and then replays same at least on seven
different occasions. This gives the City exposure nationally. The contestants
come from other countries as well as the United States.
The PAVILION or the DOME would be an excellent location for displaying these
participating cars.
In Detroit, they had to assure the safety of the spectators and they built an
observation tower to photograph the races. Apparently in Michigan, enabling
legislation was needed in order to run the race on the street.
Councilman Heischober advised he had been contacted by the President of
INTERNATIONAL MOTOR SPEEDWAY AUTHORITY (IMSA). The proposed promoter of the
Norfolk situation gave IMSA Councilman Heischober's name because throughout the
Country this entails mostly automobiles dealers. Ford Motor Company invested
the $5-MlLLION in Detroit. Detroit is stili in the "red". San Antonio lost
$600,000, but believed this would reverse itself next year. The key is ESPN
Television coverage, if you can secure a multi-year coiitract. It is a two-m@ile
course. A thousand rooms are required for just the crews. Councilman Heischober
advised he had the names of the people who could be contacted both nationally,
as well as the promoter who has the rights for this area.
Vice Mayor Oberndorf advised the City of Detroit had to make $2-MTLLTON worth
of street improvements just to run the race, but the $5-MILLTON not only came
from the Ford Motor Company, but other corporate members.
Vice Mayor Oberndorf advised of the Industrial Development Bond Investments in
the motels/hotels the "strip".
Councilman Heischober advised there are s@-xteen (16) cities already in the
business of GRAND PRIX racing.

V I 0 E M A Y 0 R S C 0 N C E R N S
ITEM 28673 (Continued)
Councilman Fentress advised of the NASCAR Race annually in Sebring, Florida on
an old abandoned airstrip which is highly successful.
Mayor Jones advised he attended the Norfolk City Council Meeting relative
consideration of the GRAND PRIX race. Ron Massey developed the studies for
Norfolk and would be a most beneficial contact for Mrs. Phillips. The large
investment, $1.2-MILLION upfront, as well as neighborhood opposition most
probably resulted in Norfolk's denial.
Vice Mayor Oberndorf advised one of the City's former employees, Mr. Davin, in
the Public Works Department met with the Vice Mayor. Mr. Davin drives in these
aforementioned races and has information to share with City Staff.
ITEM # 28674
Vice Mayor Oberndorf further advised Martin Grube, Historian, of the Virginia
Beach Fire Department, forwarded various suggestions for the TWENTY-FIFTH
ANNIVERSARY CELEBRATION COMMITTEE. (Said sugestions are hereby made a part of
the record.) Vice Mayor Oberndorf advised Councilwoman McClanan and Councilman
Baum of these suggestions.
Vice Mayor Oberndorf further advised another citizen had suggested the planting
of twenty-five (25) silver maple trees in one of the park areas as a living
tribute the TWENTY-FIFTH ANNIVERSARY. Councilman Perry suggested these trees be
planted at the Veteran's Memorial.

ITEYi # 28675
Councilman Perry advised the City Treasurer had informed him the State allows
$2.50 more on automobile decals. Councilman Perry suggested this form of extra
tax be utilized as same would be applied only to those who use the roads.
Approximately 250,000 to 300,000 auto decals are sold. This would result in
approximately an additional $1-MILLION Per Year. If this were not enough, an
extra dollar could be added to the personal property tax for automobiles.
The City Manager @iill review same.
ITEM # 28676
Councilman Perry referenced the TARGET AREAS in the CAPITAL IMPROVEMENT
PROGRAM. These are stipulated as being funded by Community Development Block
Grant funds. However, the funds are being depleted. Councilman Perry requested
information relative where the City will derive these funds. The citizens in
Gracetown have requested twice the City stop digging the ditches and taking
the good top soil elsewhere.
The Mayor advised the Impact of the Federal cutbacks on the City's ability to
fund the TARGET ARF.A programs needed to be addressed. The City Manager advised
a Staff presentation/ Workshop Session will be scheduled with a response to
the Gracetown issues.
ITEM # 28677
Councilman Baum distributed a SUMMARY OF MEETING REGARDING AGRICULTURAL ISSUES.
(Said summary is her--by made a part of the record.) The meeting was held in
the Agricultural Conference Room on December 29, 1987. Participants were:
Councilman Baum, Councilwoman Henley, the Ci-ty Manager, Messrs Hector A.
Rivera, Robert Scott, Jack Whitney, Norris Shirley, Bartley Tuthill, Dick
Cockrell, Don Horsley, G. B. Pendleton, Louis Cullipher and Dr. Michael
Chandler, Extension Specialist, VPI. Councilman Baum referenced the suggestion
a TASK FORGE be appointed to visit similar areas of Loudoun/Clark Counties,
Virginia, Montgomery County Maryland and Chester/York, Pennsylvania. A second
tour will be planned for New Jersey and New York. This TASK FORCE would
observe what techniques and strategies are working to protect farmland in these
other areas. The target date is the last two weeks in February. Three leading
farmers would attend, as well as staff. After this, Jack lqhitney would proceed
with preparing the RFP's for Transfer of Development Rights. The farmers could
meet in WORKSHOPS to discuss these TDR'S.
Councilman Baum requested a decision be made at the City Council Meeting of
January 25, 1988, to send the farmers, two staff members, two Council Members,
as well a Dr. Michael Chandler, 14:xtension Specialists, Community Resource
Development, VPI, to visit the aforementioned areas.
Councilwoman Henley advised there was a tight time frame with the TDR Study.
The City Manager advised he will develop a SCHEDULE and a PLAN OF ACTION for
the City Council Meeting of January 25, 1988, reflecting exactly how the Staff
would proceed with same, merging two activities to be assured no time is lost.
Don Horsley, Dick Grockrell, and Norris Shirley were suggested as leading
farmers to attend. Councilwoman Henley requested a reuresentative from Pungo
attend.

UNFINISHED BUSIliESS ITEM # 28696
ADD-ON
Councilwoman Henley referenced the newspaper article relative the items in
the City's LEGISLATIVE PACKAGE @allich did not find a sponsor.
Councilwoman Henley wished some points clarified. Reference was made in
rela@@ion to the Resolution requesting the Ge-,ieral Assembly to Amend the
Charter of the City of Virginia Beach to empower the City to in-pose a tax on
the Transfer of Real Estate upon approval by Refei-endum. The Resolution and
the proposed amendmeiit clearly specified imposition of a tax on the transfer
of real es@late would only con@e about after ap',Droval by the voters in a
referendum. Councilwonian Tenley would hope that the City's delegation
understood the City Council was not requesting this approval without
subsequent approval in a Refereiidum. Councilwoman lienley further advised had
this clause not been inserted in said Resolution and Aiqendment, she most
probably would not have been able to support this e'@ther.
Councilwoman Henley further referenced the Amendment to the City's Charter to
provide for the Direct Election of the School Board and to Grant the School
Board Limited Taxing Authority. The newspaper article refereiced whether or
not this was constitutional. Tlie City Council iias completely aware this was
going to be more than a one-step process. Over the numerous times, the issue
was discussed, Councilman Moss made it very plain, this ivould entail a
constitutional change in order to allow anctlier body to levy tax and then
subseque-,itly it would have to corie back in the question of the election of
the School Board. This would entail approximately three sessions plus a vote
by the people to approve the Constitutional Change.

Item III-I.l.
NEW BUSINESS ITEIII # 28697
Giles Dodd, Assistant City 14anager for Administration, presented the INTERIM
FINANCIAL STATETMNTS for the Period of July 1, 1987 through November 30,
1987. (Said Statements are hereby made a part of the record.)
Giles Dodd referenced Page 2.1., EXHIBIT A depicting the seven (7) major
classifications of Revenues shown in the General Fund through November 30,
1987. Five of these are better than anticipated. The other two: Permits,
Privilege Fees and Licenses and Other Category are a bit less than should be
but ahead of last year. Expenditures are below the estimate in the Budget
for this Fiscal year.
The General Property Taxes reflects receipt of 40.9% of the total Estimate
for the year. The Tax Assessor had indicated revenues would be down
approximately $1.7-MILLIOi@l as a result of reduced assessments. However, the
majority of this $1.7-MILLION will only fall into the second 'half of the
year, because it will be those collections due June Tenth. $612,000 of this
amount falls into this period. Of this $612,000 in this six-month period,
there have been a net of supplements and exonerations to the Fiscal 1988
Taxes into the Fiscal 1987 Taxes of $166,964. Actually, the City is not down
by $612,000 but down by $445,000 in real estate only. The difference has
been made up in personal property taxes, so the City is now in a favorable
position as far as its Budget Estimate is concerned at this point in the
Fiscal Year.
Councilman Moss referenced Page 3.1. - real estate and personal property
supplements. Giles Dodd advised supplements generally mean assessments thal.
for some reason fail to get them on so they are supplemented after the
original roll has gone out. Agricultural Roll-back would be in current years.
The School Operating Fund and the Water and Sewer Enterprise Fund seem to be
doing well as the General Fund. Section 7 has been added to this report which
gives INTERIM BALANCE SHEETS of the three major funds.
Councilman Perry advised the U.S.A. TODAY listed the City of Virginia Beach
as the fifth City in the United States with the largest surplus percentage of
the Budget.
Giles Dodd advised City Council had ADOPTED a Policy that the fund balance in
the General Fund at the end of the year would be somewhere between 75% and
100% of the amount of debt service that would be needed for the next year.
City Counci-1 has tried to retain it in that range. The Fund balance is one of
the criteria that the bond rating agencies examine very carefully.
Councilwoman Henley advised it was definitely related to the amount of debt
that the City owes and the ability to assure payment of that debt. Tt is
because of that policy ttiat the Ci@'y has retained the bond rating and found
the ability to secure good interest rates. It is very important that the
City continue to maintain that good fiscal responsible position, particularly
entering in@@o the Lake Gaston project.
