Invitation to City Council Candidates to submit written responses to our questions

Dear Candidates,

I’d like to thank all of you once again for attending the Bayfront Candidate forum held last week.  I have heard nothing but good reviews from those that attended.  We appreciated your professionalism and adherence to the forum rules.  Unfortunately with such a large cadre of candidates and a limited amount of time, we were only able to address 9 of the 15 questions that were submitted by residents.

As I mentioned on your forum handouts, we are providing the opportunity and would encourage you to submit written responses to all or as many of the 15 questions on the attached list.  The first 9 are the ones you answered the night of the forum.  You can repeat the answers you gave at the forum or elaborate on them as part of your written response.  All of your responses will be posted at http://www.sdcc.info and will be helpful to the community in understanding your viewpoints.

You are also welcome to submit your website address if you have one.  We will include this with the posting of your written responses.

All responses need to be submitted by October 26th to allow posting and time for the community to view the responses.  Comments will be posted as they are submitted and no comments will be accepted after the October 26th deadline.

The questions have been included below and as an attachment.  Let me know if you need them in a different format.

Candidate Questions

1.    If elected, during your term you will have to make a decision regarding how the Lynnhaven River will be dredged.  As part of this project, do you support the use of the Lynnhaven Boat Ramp and Beach Facility as a PERMANENT INDUSTRIAL DREDGE TRANSFER STATION for dredging needs outside the immediate area of the Lynnhaven Inlet or do you support using several transfer stations located in the areas receiving the most benefit from each dredging project?  Please explain?

2.    One of the last remaining parcels of open space in the most densely populated section of Virginia Beach is a 69 acre property along Shore Drive known as Pleasure House Point (Indigo Dunes), what future for this property would you support and why?

a)    The Sandler’s current “Indigo Dunes” project of 1,069 homes.

b)    Acquisition of the property for open space as recommended in the City’s Outdoors Plan.

c)    Some other alternative.

3.    Bayfront beaches both east and west of the Lynnhaven Inlet are in desperate need of sand replenishment.  Sand from upcoming 2009/2010 Lynnhaven Inlet dredging can be used for this purpose.  Will you support the necessary funding, litigation and policy changes required to make this replenishment happen?

4.    It is well documented that Shore Drive is one of the deadliest corridors in Virginia.  Ninety lives have been lost over the past 30 years.  In an effort to stop these unnecessary tragedies, the SDCC, BAC and City created a safety task force.  Task force recommendations are being implemented as part of 4 Shore Drive improvement projects.  2 of these projects are fully funded.  If elected, would you support fully funding the remaining 2 projects so they are completed in less than 4 years?

5.    The Bayfront area is the most densely (residents/acre) populated in the city.  Much of this uncontrolled growth is a direct result of rezoning to increase densities.  If elected, will you support or oppose rezoning requests in the Shore Drive area that allow densities greater than those currently allowed?  Examples (R-10 to A-24, B-2 to B-4 Multi-family)

6.    Given the facts that Shore Drive is one of 3 major East-West corridors and that the Hampton Roads Metropolitan Planning Organization has a long range transportation plan showing the need for a 6 lane Shore Drive from North Hampton to Great Neck Road, would you support and help implement any community effort to eliminate this possibility and keep Shore Drive 4 lanes?

7.    Lynnhaven River NOW has been making heroic advances in cleaning up the Lynnhaven River.  If elected, what would you do to keep this effort going?

8.    Another major problem experienced by the community is the City’s lack of public involvement and public participation on all City and Private projects.  The City seems to only do the bare minimum required by law regarding notices, meetings and public discussion.  Do you feel public involvement and participation need to be improved and if so, what would you do to make this happen?

9.    The City has been recognized and won awards for its attention to open space and parks.  With the Open Space Acquisition Fund drying up and no apparent planned replacement funding stream, should a new money stream be identified and if so, what would that be?  If not, why?

10.  How specifically are you going to address the local impact resulting from the coming drastic state/federal budget cutbacks?

11.  Like much of the City, the Shore Drive area is beginning to see the signs of gang activity in our neighborhoods.  Could you please comment on the extent of the expanding gang problem in VB and what the city is/should be doing to diminish it?

12.  Currently the City tax breakdown percentage is 87% Resident and 13% Business.  It has always been the goal of the City and residents to shift this percentage to a 70/30 ratio and help lessen the burden on the residents.  If elected, what would you do to make this happen?

13.  Do you support the extension of Light Rail along the abandoned Norfolk Southern right of way (ROW)?  Please explain why or why not.

14.  Our city is rich with history; some examples include the First Landing, several colonial period houses and various other sites.  If elected, what would be your commitment to historic preservation in the city?

15.  Given the most recent U.S. Army Corp of Engineers Hurricane Evacuation Study (March 08), how would you provide for the timely evacuation of Shore Dr. and North Beach areas if residential building and population densities are further increased with Indigo Dunes and other proposed properties?

VB looking at VB Blvd site for transfer station

The plan supplants one that would have used the Lynnhaven Boat Ramp, near the Lesner Bridge, to move sand and silt dredged from the Western Branch of the Lynnhaven River from barges to dump trucks. That idea was tabled after it met with opposition.

Kudos to Va Pilot’s editorial promoting acquiring open space at today’s reduced real estate values

Then-Councilman Will Sessoms, also now running for mayor, said the council would “really regret it down the road” if it didn’t buy the land when it had the chance. Sessoms was right.

I’d wager which ever elected official[s] is[are] part of acquiring Pleasure House Point and/or the “Duck-In property” would get [re]elected for as long as they want to hold office.

The editorial continues:

For example, high-end condo projects proposed for magnificent waterfront properties on either side of the Lesner Bridge sit idle, their prospects dimming each day as the real estate slide accelerates.

Wow!

Read entire editorial at the Pilotonline.com.

Just because the open space fund might be diminished doesn’t mean there aren’t other creative solutions if the will is found to make it happen.

Special note: I happened to have been part of a dedicated group of people who worked diligently to get the Lake Ridge project mentioned in the editorial much reduced in size, scope & impact.

SDCC General Meeting Agenda for Monday, July 28th 2008

SDCC General Meeting Agenda - Monday July 28, 2008

SDCC General Meeting - Monday July 28, 2008, 7:30 to 9:00pm
Ocean Park Volunteer Rescue Squad Hall (parking in back, on side streets and across Shore Drive)

Program/Presentation – No program planned for this month.  Time will be allotted to Old & New Business Sections.

The general agenda for the evening will be:

Officer’s Reports - Brief Reports
Secretary - Tim
Treasurer’s Report - Leslie
Vice President & President - Daphne & Todd

Old Business-
Indigo Dunes Project – Department of Environmental Quality (DEQ) has asked for more time to review and answer the public’s concerns before going before the State Water Control Board (WCB).  The next WCB meeting is scheduled for September 30th.  The SDCC Pleasure House Point (PHP) committee has scheduled a meeting with the Chesapeake Bay Foundation (CBF), Lynnhaven River Now (LRN), Wetlands Watch and our legal representation to put together a plan for the WCB hearing. 

Lynnhaven Boat Ramp (LBR) Proposed Spoils Transfer Station – City Staff is still pursuing the purchase of land behind the AT&T-Battery Plus building on the Blvd. for the dredging of the Western Branch as a permanent dredge transfer station. This site would also provide kayak
& canoe access when not being used as a transfer station.  City Staff is looking at purchasing or condemnation of all the property in the area (excluding the vets office) to also allow a Fire Station.  Staff plans to present details to City Council on Aug 12 at a closed session.
[Correction 2:18pm Monday July 28th 2008.]

Proposed Rezoning of City Marina - Planning Commission review was deferred from the July 9th meeting to the August 13th meeting at noon in City Council Chambers.  SDCC has sent a letter to City Staff and Council opposing the rezoning from P-1 to B-2.  Reasons for opposition include the fact that a marina is considered a principal use in a P-1 zoning district so there is no need to rezone and the current arrangement is a money making venture for the City, about $50,000 per year.  Making it a private venture runs the risk of losing this income.

City Council Candidate Forum and Questionnaire –  SDCC agreed to partner with OPCL and host a City Council Candidate Forum the week of September 22nd – 26th.  The locations suggested were the VB resort conference hotel, Baylake Pines church, Lynnhaven Congregational church and Westminster Canterbury.  It was recommended that Todd moderate and the format still needed to be decided.

SDCC Oyster Roast – Mark your calendars for Saturday Nov 15th from noon until 4pm at the VB Resort Conference Hotel.  First committee meeting is scheduled for Thursday August 21st at 6:30pm at Charlie’s Restaurant.  Volunteers are needed, email Todd if you’re interested in helping.  Todd@sdcc.info

SDCC Officer Nomination Committee – The nominating committee is narrowing down the list of candidates and is still in need of a good candidate for Vice President or Secretary.  If you are interested in running or know of anyone that may be, please contact Dan Creedon at DanVaB@aol.com.  The committee will make their presentation of names at the October 27th general meeting.

New Business -

Lynnhaven Boat Ramp (LBR) Proposed Spoils Transfer Station – Should SDCC write a letter to City Staff and Council supporting the plan to purchase and/or condemn businesses behind PEP Boys for a transfer station?  Should SDCC partner with Saw Pen Point C.L. is support of this site?

Community Legislative Town Hall Meeting -The City of Virginia Beach and the Virginia Beach Council of Civic Organizations will be co-hosting a town-hall style discussion to give citizens an opportunity to provide valuable input into the City’s 2008 Legislative Agenda – goals which the City will submit to members of the local General Assembly delegation later in the year.  Meeting will be Wednesday August 6th at 7:30pm in the VB Convention Center and is open to the public.
Indigo Dunes Project – With the possible Sandlers financial troubles reported by the Virginian-Pilot, does the SDCC think it’s a opportune time to sit down with City Staff and Council to discuss working up possible purchase scenarios (land swaps, tax reductions, etc.) and then have the City pursue these plans with the Sandlers?

Sincerely,
Todd Solomon

SDCC Opposition to Proposed Permanent Dredge Material Transfer Station at Crab Creek (CIP 08-005)

Dear Madam Mayor and City Council Members,

The Shore Drive Community Coalition (SDCC) is adamantly opposed to a dredge material transfer station being placed at the Lynnhaven Boat Ramp (LBR) Crab Creek site.  At our April 28th general meeting, SDCC member organizations voted unanimously to oppose a transfer station based on many reasons, some of which are listed below.

·      Safety Concerns – Council’s effort to make Shore Drive safer have been paying off.  It has been 2 years since the creation of the Shore Drive Safety Task Force and the last fatality on Shore Drive.  The approval of the proposed project takes a giant step backwards.  The addition of even one truck onto Shore Drive will pose a safety threat no matter how well the impact is mitigated.  Boater safety is also a concern from the 50+ barge trips per day planned.  Pedestrian safety at the LBR will be an issue with the 140 truck trips a day planned.  All aspects of this project will have adverse impacts on the safety of the Shore Drive area.

·      Lack of Vision – Council has spent almost 10 years and ½ million dollars creating a vision for the Shore Drive Corridor.  A dredge material transfer station was never part of this vision.  Public works has never participated in the planning of this vision and should not be the group making this vision destroying decision.  Long term goals for the Shore Drive Corridor need to be taken into account and weighed heavily for all projects and plans in the Shore Drive area.

·      Risk outweighs Reward – Barges crashing into the Lesner Bridge, barges crashing into other boats, pedestrian and vehicular accidents on Shore Drive, accidents in a heavily used boat ramp facility, and the increased degradation of the structural integrity of the Lesner Bridge from 140 truck trips per day.  These risks far outweigh any reward this site may hold over others along the Lynnhaven River.

Unfortunately, the SDCC doesn’t have the answer to the Lynnhaven dredging dilemma, but we do know the solution is not at the proposed LBR site.  SDCC members have expressed an interest in helping Public Works and Coastal engineers locate alternate temporary transfer sites that have less risk and safety concerns.  The SDCC also suggests creating a Lynnhaven River Dredging Task Force to help study the issues and identify sites acceptable to all communities.  It appears a new decision making process should be implemented since the 2 sites that have been identified over the past 2 years have both been opposed by the local residents.

If you have any questions, I can be reached at 869-5447Cell or 688-8365Work or todd@sdcc.info

Todd R. Solomon

Council’s decision to vote on any transfer site prior to implementation (CIP 08-005)

Dear Madam Mayor and City Council Members,

The Shore Drive Community Coalition (SDCC) overwhelmingly supports City Council’s decision to officially vote on any dredge material transfer site prior to its implementation.

At the March 19th public hearing, Mr. Hansen stated that no final sites would be chosen without being approved by a City Council vote.  Since the hearing, this initiative has also been verified by a few Council members during general discussions with SDCC members.

The location of a temporary or permanent transfer stations is a highly charged and controversial topic.  City Council’s plan to endorse all sites by vote after receiving adequate technical justification and listening to public comment is the correct decision.  We agree as you do, that decisions on this matter are too important to be made by City staff alone.

Thank you for giving the residents a voice in any final decision that is made.

If you have any questions, I can be reached at 869-5447Cell or 688-8365Work or todd@sdcc.info
Sincerely,

Todd R. Solomon

New Commonwealth Bill signed into law

The second law, which applies statewide, requires local government officers and certain local government employees to list all real property in which they have an ownership interest — regardless of its location — and to name any co-owners of that property. Currently, state law requires the officials to disclose only property they own in the jurisdiction where they serve and in any contiguous county, city or town.

SDCC General Meeting - Monday March 31, 2008, 7:30 to 9:00pm

Ocean Park Volunteer Rescue Squad Hall (parking in back, on side streets and across Shore Drive)

Presentation on City Marina Rezoning and Privatization Plan – Faith Christie, City Planner, or designated rep. will be present to
answer questions on the new proposal for the City Marina. The request is being changed to a Conditional Rezoning. New signs will be posted shortly. The new plan contains proffers and planned to be heard the at the May 14th Planning Commission meeting. City Council hearing will be in late May or early June 2008. SDCC would like a small committee to work with the City and plan the future of this site. Representatives from Lynnhaven Colony, SDCC, Vista Circle, Boat Slip owners, BAC and City Staff are asked to participate. Proffers for this site are proposed to limit the uses of the Lynnhaven Marina Property. The only uses that shall be permitted in the requested B-2 Zoning Area are listed below.
• Commercial Marina including fuel service, subject to obtaining a conditional use permit (City operation would not require a
Conditional Use Permit)
• Off-site parking (use of parking for off-site uses not directly related to the Marina slip requirements)
• Outdoor Plaza (allows for an open area with paving, planting, and lights, benches and picnic tables also could be permitted for
casual seating and eating sandwiches and snacks purchased in the specialty shop)
• Specialty Shops/retail store of specialty goods, not to exceed 3,000 sq. ft.
• No structure on the site shall exceed thirty (30) feet in height.
Proffers NOT included: The suggested revised proffers do NOT include: Commercial Recreational Facility; Commercial Parking lot, Outdoor Café, and Personal Watercraft.

The general agenda for the evening will be:

Presentation/Discussion - 30 Minutes
Officer’s Reports - Brief Reports
Secretary -
Treasurer’s Report - Leslie
Vice President & President - Daphne & Todd

Old Business-

Indigo Dunes Project – Continued discussion on Botanical Garden proposal from last meeting. An SDCC vote is recommended at this meeting, so be prepared to vote your community’s view. Continued investigation by PHP committee on the possibility of a land swap with commercial property at Corporate Landing. Anyone interested in helping research and put together a proposal to submit to the City is asked to contact Todd Solomon at todd@sdcc.info. SDCC also plans on making this topic a major campaign issue for the Nov. City Council elections.

Lynnhaven River Proposed Spoils Transfer Station - Over 250 residents attended the March 19th public hearing Bayside Middle School. SDCC plans to gather ideas for alternate transfer sites for the Western and Eastern dredgings and has set up an area on http://www.sdcc.info where residents can submit their suggestions.

Cape Henry Beach Sand Replenishment - SDCC has sent a letter to City Council requesting they move ahead with a plan to implement the Cape Henry Beach Sand Replenishment resolution beginning with the next dredge cycle in 2009/2010.

R5R Proposed Code Amendments – Wed. March 12th, the Planning Commission voted (11-0) in favor of a modified proposed amendment change. The approved version limits the size of garages to 15% of lot size up to 1000 sq ft max and has some voluntary incentives changes to R5R lots. Lot sizes 6,500 sq ft. and smaller will have a reduced garage space and lots greater than 6,500 will be able to build the same as before. City Council will NOT be hearing this at the April 8th City Council session. Instead, City Council will appoint another committee to study the issue and try to find a solution that is supported by a greater majority than the modified amendment approved by the Planning Commission.

New Business -

SDCC Membership and Committee Participation – SDCC Membership forms have been mailed out. Our goal is to have 35 paid members this year. This year’s packets contained a information form which we’d really like each group to take the time and fill out. Much of the information requested will help SDCC become a better organization. One items on the form concerns committee participation. With the current number of issues that impact the Shore Drive area, we need more volunteers to help with SDCC committees. So if you have a free hour or two a week, consider signing up for a group.

2nd Annual Shore Drive Town Hall Meeting - Last year’s event held in April was attended by over 250 residents. The main topics of discussion were Indigo Dunes and Shore Drive Safety. At last month’s meeting everyone thought we should hold another Town Hall meeting. We need to determine when to hold it and what main topics should be addressed.

2008 City Council Candidate Questionnaire/Forum – Last month it was determined that we should send our a candidate questionnaire and hold an informal forum prior to the City Council elections. It was also determined to hold the forum as the October General Meeting. Should the forum be kept small or should it be moved to a larger location? If we move site from the OP Rescue Squad, where should it be held? Volunteers are needed to work on this committee.

SDCC Oyster Roast – Does Saturday Nov 15th at the VB Resort Conference Hotel sound good to everyone? If we move forward with this, we will need a chair or co-chair for the event. If you like to throw a party, this position would be perfect fory you, who will step forward and chair the event?
