The City of Virginia Beach has been designated as a Certified Local Government by the

National Park Service, only the 35th

Virginia community to receive this designation. This

certification means Virginia Beach has established a sound historic preservation program and

institutes a partnership between the city, the State Historic Preservation Office and the federal

historic preservation program.

The Virginia Beach Animal Care and Adoption Center (ACAC) had their annual surprise

inspection by the Virginia Department of Agriculture and Consumer Services’ Office of the

State Veterinarian and was found to be 100% compliant in all areas of inspection. The ACAC

has been fully compliant in each annual inspection since moving to the Birdneck Road facility in

December 2011.

The shelter’s team has worked diligently to increase its live release

rate (LRR) over the years and achieved an overall LRR of 75% in

2015. The ACAC is a leader among the area’s municipal animal

shelters, impounds approximately 7,000 animals annually and is

open six days a week for adoptions. To see adoptable animals and

upcoming events from the ACAC, follow their Facebook page at

www.facebook.com/VBAnimalCareandAdoptionCenter.

The Sept. 28 meeting of the Online Home Sharing Economy Ad Hoc Committee, previously scheduled at

the Virginia Beach Convention Center, has been moved to the City Council chamber at City Hall and will

start at 6 p.m. The committee is expected to finalize its policy recommendations at the meeting.

Residents can also share their thoughts online at the city-sponsored forum, Virtual

Town Hall, at www.VBgov.com/virtualtownhall. To date, more than 200 people

have left comments at the forum. For more information, contact Assistant to the City Manager Bob Matthias at

(757) 385-8267 or [email protected].

Fire Chief Steve Cover was

invited to address a group of

Chief Petty Officer Selectees from

the USS EAKHarry S. Truman at

a 9/11 event two days before the

15th

anniversary of the attacks on

the World Trade Center and the

Pentagon, and the loss of Flight

93 in Pennsylvania.

Chief Cover, who responded to

the attack on the Pentagon along

with other members of the Virginia Task Force 2 Urban Search and Rescue team, described the

memories from that day and spoke of the close partnership between our military and the nation’s

first responders. The opportunity to speak to the sailors at Norfolk Naval Shipyard reinforces the

relationship between the Virginia Beach Fire Department and the US Navy.

More than 100 residents attended Wednesday evening’s (Sept. 14) Town Hall meeting in

Centerville hosted by Councilmember Bob Dyer. City staff provided briefings on roadway and

stormwater projects (Phil Davenport), parks and recreation facilities (Michael Kalvort), public

safety issues (VBPD Capt. Tony Yarbrough),

and Human Services’ strategic planning process

(Dannette Smith). Attendees also heard from

RJ Nutter on plans for a Royal Farms store on

Kempsville Road and from Ed Hewitt on plans

for the Farmhouse Brewing Company on

Kempsville Road near Centerville Turnpike. A

number of City staff attended as resources,

including Deputy City Managers Tom Leahy

and Ken Chandler, Fire Chief Steve Cover,

Planning Director Barry Frankenfield,

Emergency Management Director Erin

Sutton and ECCS Director Stephen

Williams.

Solid Waste crews have already collected more than 2,100 tons

of yard debris. The normal amount this time of year is about a

quarter of that. While the sheer volume of debris has crews

running a couple of days behind their normal schedule, they

expect to work overtime Saturday and maybe Monday to get

caught up. Collecting yard debris is an intensely physical job

and our crews are doing a terrific job.

Grammy nominated The Mavericks will perform at

the Sandler Center for the Performing Arts on Wednesday, Dec. 7, at 8 p.m. Tickets are on

sale starting today at the Sandler Center box office or www.ynottix.com. Contact: Sandler

Center, (757) 385-2787.
