City Manager’s Update
More than 180 people attended the Virginia Beach Human
Rights Commission held its 23rd
Annual Human Rights
Awards Ceremony at the Virginia Beach Convention Center
on Thursday, April 6. I joined Councilmembers Bob Dyer and
Shannon Kane, Deputy City Manager Ken Chandler and
several City staff to help honor individuals, community groups
and organizations for their meritorious service in the pursuit of
cultural diversity and advocacy of human rights for all.
This year’s honorees are Caritas Felices de Hampton Roads, Marilyn Castro, Loretta Kahn,
Victoria Sachar-Milosevich, NAMI, Virginia Beach, and Nancy Will. For the 13th
consecutive
year, the HRC honored the memory of the late Daniel Matthew Stone, former Department of
Social Services Director, by awarding the Daniel M. Stone Humanitarian Award to the Virginia
Beach Justice Initiative. The HRC presented Dr. Amelia Ross-Hammond with the seventh
Meyera E. Oberndorf Human Rights Achievement in Government Award and Teens With A
Purpose was awarded the fifth Helen P. Shropshire Human Rights Youth Award.
The Department of Housing and Neighborhood Preservation is currently accepting public
comments on its proposed Annual Action Plan for the 2017 fiscal year (July 1, 2017 through
June 30, 2018). The plan outlines how the department will use and allocate more than $3.9
million in funding under the following federal entitlement grants: Community Development
Block Grant (CDBG), HOME Investment Partnerships (HOME), Emergency Solutions Grant
(ESG) and the Housing Opportunities for People with AIDS (HOPWA) Program. Final fund
allocations are subject to City Council appropriation on May 9 and approval of the Annual
Action Plan by the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development.
Interested citizens can view the draft Annual Action Plan and provide comments online at
www.VBgov.com/virtualtownhall or at a public hearing on Tuesday, April 25, at 6 p.m. at Housing
and Neighborhood Preservation’s main office (2424 Courthouse Drive, Building 18A). The 30-day
comment period ends on May 6. For more information, visit www.VBgov.com/AAP.
Contact: Cindy Walters, (757) 385-5754, [email protected].
The Department of Emergency Medical Services held its 18th
Basic Life Support (BLS)
Academy graduation ceremony on Wednesday, April 5. Mayor William D. Sessoms, Jr.,
Deputy City Managers Steve Cover and Ken Chandler, and I attended the ceremony to
welcome 21 new graduates who completed a 14-week curriculum of Basic Life Support
Training. VBEMS Chief Ed Brazle and
Deputy Chief Thomas Green provided
remarks and advice to the graduates who
were sworn in by Chaplain Ruby
Christian. The graduates will soon
begin their field internship time running
with one of the 10 volunteer rescue
squads, and will be released as
Attendants-in-Charge, ready to staff an
ambulance once requirements are
complete. Congratulations to the newly
graduated.
Congratulations to Virginia Beach Visitor Center Manager Scott
Warren on earning the coveted Travel Marketing Professional
certification from the Southeast Tourism Society (STS). Scott
was honored, along with several dozen classmates, during a
graduation ceremony at the STS spring meeting in Knoxville, Tenn.
For more than 25 years, the STS Marketing College has provided
continuing education opportunities for the travel and tourism
industry. Since its inception in 1992, the STS Marketing College
has hosted tourism professionals, for one week each year, at the
University of North Georgia. Students participate in a curriculum of
courses designed to teach marketing techniques from all facets of
the tourism industry.
VFW Post 392 selected Squad Commander (Captain) Kyle Musicant as a Veterans of
Foreign Wars (VFW) Emergency Medical Technician of the Year. For Capt. Musicant, being
an EMS member is a calling; after going on his
first call, he felt he never wanted to do anything
else. Kyle has been an EMT for 12 years, first
joining the Lexington Park Volunteer Rescue
Squad (Maryland) in 2005. In 2008, the Navy
transferred him to a command in Norfolk, where
he became a member of Plaza Rescue Squad,
holding the positions of Crew Chief,
Maintenance Sergeant and Operations LT.
About being a VBEMS member, Kyle says,
“The greatest satisfaction I have in EMS is
knowing that at the end of the shift, I’ve done
well for the people of Virginia Beach.”
Beginning Thursday, April 13, the 31st Street garage will be closed to the public for about a week so
contractors can repair the damage caused by an arson fire last August. Guests of the Hilton Virginia Beach
Oceanfront (3001 Atlantic Avenue) will use valet service for parking during the construction. Other
visitors to the area should plan to use on-street parking or one of the other many public or private parking
lots located along the oceanfront. For a list of alternative public parking options, download the VB Events
app from the Google Play or Apple stores or visit www.VBgov.com.
A temporary closure of Thalia Drive, between Glen Road and Lynn Shores,
began earlier this week on Monday, April 10, to replace the culvert at Wolfsnare Creek on
Thalia Drive. Signs for the detour route are posted which will direct drivers to use Edinburgh
Drive and Lynn Shores Drive. Access to residences on this portion of Thalia Drive will be
maintained at all times during the closure. Weather permitting, the roadway will reopen to
traffic in July 2017. Contact: Esther Dornin, (757) 385-4131, or Jeff Parson, (757) 217-5319.
Drainage and utility work began this week in the 2400 block of
Princess Anne Road. This project will be implemented in two phases: Phase I) Stormwater
drainage system work within the rights-of-way between 2422 and 2428 Princess Anne Road,
followed by repairs to the drainage system. Drainage work requires closing a shoulder of the
northbound lane, and access to the affected properties and businesses will be maintained.
Phase II drainage repairs will require utility work. Weather permitting, crews will operate
from 9 a.m. to 3 p.m. The project is expected to be complete July 2017. Contact: Jonas
Alered or Dennis Simon, (757) 385-1470.
National Public Safety Telecommunicators Week, April 9-15, is held annually to recognize
and honor telecommunications personnel (911 dispatchers) in the public safety community.
Public safety telecommunicators are the first contacts citizens have with emergency services.
They are the unseen first responders, the hidden heroes, as they
provide guidance and reassuring direction to callers when there is an
emergency. We are grateful to them for their expertise, compassion,
dedication and professionalism as they perform their jobs 365 days a
year.
Not only do our Emergency Communications and Citizen
Services members help instill public confidence in the City’s
emergency response system, they help the community in other
ways, such as hosting their seventh annual Relay for Life Spaghetti
Dinner fundraiser, which raised more than $700.
To recognize our first responders, Mayor William D. Sessoms, Jr. issued a proclamation that
was read at ECCS’ cookout earlier today, declaring April 9-15, 2017, Public Safety
Telecommunications Week in Virginia Beach.
A new and improved version of the VB Connect app for iOS (Apple devices) is now available.
The VB Connect mobile app has been completely re-written and redesigned, making it more
user-friendly and providing quick access to City news and information. The redesigned app
features a new navigation layout and scales to fit whatever iOS mobile device it is viewed on. It
also has an all-new home screen that features a collection of recent headlines, news releases,
tweets, photos, and videos that can be
customized to fit individual preferences.
VB Connect is the official mobile app
for Virginia Beach city government that
connects residents with key information
and services of the city. This convenient
mobile app allows users to get the latest
city news releases, access city job
listings, look up community recycling
and garbage collection days and much
more. Look for a new version of the app
for Android users in the coming weeks.
The April 9 episode of “Sunday
TODAY with Willie Geist,”
featured a photo from the Virginia
Aquarium’s Mermaid Mondays event showcasing Mermaid Hales
interacting with young visitors.
Mermaid Mondays occurs each
Monday evening in April from 6 to 9
p.m. Guests are treated to a visit in
the Red Sea Tunnel for a mermaid
viewing, and the Aquarium is filled
with mermaids and mermaid-themed
activities for the evening.
The Law Enforcement Training Academy and Virginia Beach Police Officers gave one very
special evening to 22 young women and showed them just how amazing they are. The 2017 Miss
Amazing Virginia Pageant provides an opportunity for developmentally and physically
disabled girls and women to experience a pageant in a supportive environment. And that’s
exactly what happened Saturday, April 8. ECCS Dispatcher Sharon Turner is the Virginia
Chair for Miss Amazing and organized the event. With their Virginia Beach Police Department
escorts, the amazing contestants displayed their talents and evening gowns on stage. Although
some of the contestants were initially overwhelmed at being the center of attention, they quickly
blossomed with the support and encouragement of the audience.
The Virginia Beach Historic
Preservation Commission will hold its seventh public input meeting on Thursday, April 20,
from 6:30 to 8 p.m. in the Meyera E. Oberndorf Central Library auditorium. The purpose of
this meeting is to provide the public an update on the Commission’s activities and general
preservation concerns in the city. There will also be an opportunity for the community to
share thoughts on historic preservation in Virginia Beach. Contact: Historic Preservation
Commission, (757) 385-8573.
