Henley, Mayor Robert G. Jones, Reba S. McClanan, Vice Mayor Meyera E. Oberndorf, John D. Moss, Nancy K. Parker and John L. Perry Council Members Absent: None - 2 - C I T Y C 0 U N C I L C 0 N C E R N S ITE14 # 27204 Councilwoman Parker distributed a copy of an article from the SCIENCE DIGEST relative "AMERICA WASHING AWAY". This article concerned a rising sea level and advised erosion cannot be stopped. ITEM # 27205 Councilwoman Parker referenced a Meeting also attended by Councilwoman McClanan, a broad sector of the Community and City staff on Mach 16, 1987. Discussions evolved around soil analysis. Moving through some of the lower territories of the City, the drainage questions are dealing with the different kinds of soil - clay versus a lot of much more permeable soil for the northern sector. When the City discusses tree protection and tree replacement it may be quite different from what has been done in other areas. ITEM # 27206 Councilwoman McClanan referenced a Conditional Use Permit on Indian River Road presently being violated and requested the City Attorney and the Deparmtent of Zoning to investigate same. When a determination is made, she would like the City Attorney to move to bring the issue of REVOCATION of the Conditional Use Permit to City Council. Councilwoman Henley believed this particular CUP was a blatant violation. Councilwoman Henley reiterated the need to be advised of the legal procedures. The City Attorney advised public notice must be given and a PUBLIC HEARING held prior to City Council's deliberation of any REVOCATION. ITEM # 27207 Councilman Perry referenced the letter from the Constitutional Celebration Commission. Councilman Perry advised the Commission did not have anyone from Old Dominion University or Norfolk State on their SPEAKERS BUREAU.

ITEM # 27209 Councilwoman McClanan advised she had discussed with the City Manager the aricle in the RICED40ND T@, March 29, 1987, concerning the cost of rezoning fees and other costs associated with same. The majority of Virginia's counties have raised their fees considerably in the last two years resulting from additional costs in advertising, staffing, the review process, notification of property owners, et cetera. If the City were to advance to Conditional Zoning, a re-evaluation of fees and structures of the whole process should be determined. The City Staff will review and prepare information relative the amount the City's costs have increased since the last time the Rezoning fees were increased. - 3 - C I T Y C 0 U N C I L C 0 N C E R N S TTEM # 27210 Councilman Balko referenced an invitation for a Luncheon from the Virginia Genter for World Trade for the Brazilian Ambassador on May 18, 1987 (Noon to 2:00 P.M.).

ITF14 # 2721 1 Councilman Fentress distributed copies of a revision to an Ordinance to Amend and Reordain Article 9, Section 944.1 of the Comprehensive Zoning Ordinance of the City of Virginia Beach, Virginia, pertaining to Sign Regulations in the B-5 Resort-Commercial District. This Ordinance addresses a concern of the Restaurant Association Subsection (b) (1) by increasing the number of words to "two descriptive words that designate the type of establishment advertised". Councilman Fentress also eliminated the Subsection related to neon lighting. Councilwoman Parker and Councilman Heischober referenced the possibility for a cap of a certain number of feet relative Subsection (c) "No sign located on or in any window, or located behind any window in such manner as to attract the attention of persons outside of the establishment, shall have a surface area greater than twenty percent (20%) of the surface area of such window." Vice Mayor Oberndorf advised the Restaurant Association had requested the amount of surface area for signage be increased from sixteen (16) square feet to a total of thirty-two (32) square feet. The Restaurant Association advised the B-4 Restaurants on one side of Pacific Avenue would be allowed to have a 32-foot sign where those on the other side of Pacific Avenue zoned B-5 would be reduced to 16 feet. Assistant City Attorney Bill Macali advised the B-4 regulations will be forwarded to the Planning Commission for their consideration at their next meeting. Assistant City Attorney Bill Macali advised the three versions: the Planning Commission's recommendation, the Staff recommendation and Councilman Fentress's version will be distributed in the Formal Session. - 4 - ITEM # 27212 The INFORMAL SESSION of the VIRGINIA BEACH CITY COUNCIL was called to order by Mayor Robert G.

AND OCEAN RESCUE SERVICE, INC., a committee was established to study the aforementioned MERGER. Mr. Whitehurst advised there would be no reduction in service. There was a certain amount of ease in dealing with one system. There would be a better distribution of the communication system; i,e. co-ordinating lost children. Overall this MERGER would be more beneficial to the public. Councilman Fentress advised the rental equipment was in a state of disrepair. John Coates, Parks and Recreation Department, supervises the beachfront and advised all the rental equipment was purchased in 1983. There is no language in the Franchise Agreement to cover the enforcement of properly repaired rental equipment. The FRANCHISE AGREEMENT can be AMENDED to include this stipulation. - 7 - ITEM # 27215 Mayor Jones entertained a motion to permit City Council to conduct its EXECUTIVE SESSION pursuant to Section 2.1-344, Code of Virginia, as amended, for the following purposes: 1.
