Resolution 12-103, Second Read Approved, Amending the Fiscal Year 2013 Budget by Appropriating Fiscal Year 2012 Encumbrances (D12-4). – No speakers. Upon a motion and as recommended Councilor Devine moved 18103 Public Hearing 01/08/13 to approve Resolution 12-103, on second read, amending the fiscal year 2013 budget by appropriating fiscal year 2012 encumbrances; motion was seconded by Councilor Paolucci and passed by the following unanimously recorded votes. Ayes (7). Councilors Greenlaw, Ellis, Devine, Howe, Kelly, Paolucci and Solley. Nays (0). Resolution 12-104, Second Read Approved, Amending the Fiscal Year 2013 Budget for Capital and Grant Carryovers (D12-5). – No speakers. Upon a motion and as recommended Councilor Solley moved to approve Resolution 12-104, on second read, amending the fiscal year 2013 budget for capital and grant carryovers; motion was seconded by Councilor Kelly and passed by the following unanimously recorded votes. Ayes (7). Councilors Greenlaw, Ellis, Devine, Howe, Kelly, Paolucci and Solley. Nays (0). Granting Columbia Gas of Virginia, Inc., an Easement for a Natural Gas Distribution Service Line through the Visitor Center’s Parking Lot for Utility Service to the New Court Facility (D12-6). – 1 speaker. Councilor Howe stated that it was common for the City to have franchise agreements and permits so he asked why they City would run a 40 year perpetual right for a utilitarian in the City given that most are issued a permit. He said this would be an opportunity for them to relocate at their expense and not the City’s expense. City Attorney explained that it was because the City was asking for the service to be extended to its facility. She explained that the City does grant franchises for utilities and it authorizes the utility company to operate and install their utilities in the public streets. It’s done this way when the utility company wants to provides service throughout the 18104 Public Hearing 01/08/13 City using the City’s rights-of-way. In this case, this was a service line that will serve a City property. Councilor Howe said he understood, but he stated if the City decided to do any development on the parcel the City would be required to pay for and find a new path and route and he felt this was no different than any other permitting process. Sylvia Robinson, 807 Cornell Street, agreed with Councilor Howe and felt the City should have the ability to make the decisions. Upon a motion and as recommended Councilor Devine moved to approve Ordinance, on first read, granting Columbia Gas of Virginia, Inc., an easement for a natural gas distribution service line through the visitor centers parking lot for utility service to the new court facility; motion was seconded by Councilor Solley. Councilor Howe asked the City Attorney if the City had to do an easement and if they had to use the route that had been chosen or could they use the City’s right-of-way. City Attorney deferred to Parks, Recreation and Public Facilities Director Antozzi. Mr. Antozzi said there are probably other routes that could be used but the route chosen was the closest route. Councilor Howe said he would also like to see the cost to change the route. Mr. Antozzi stated that if it was Council’s desire he would go back and see if there were alternate routes. City Attorney Dooley asked if the relocation paragraph were taken out of the deed of easement would that take care of Councilor Howe’s concerns. Councilor Howe said that would be ideal if it could be stricken. City Attorney Dooley said she would check with Columbia Gas. Councilor Solley made an amended motion to postpone the item until the January 22 meeting; motion was seconded by Vice-Mayor Ellis and passed by the following unanimously recorded votes. Ayes (7). Councilors Greenlaw, Ellis, Devine, Howe, Kelly, 18105 Public Hearing 01/08/13 Paolucci and Solley. Nays (0). Special Exception to Lyle and Barbara Struder to the Maximum Occupancy Regulations at a Single Family Residence Located at 1212 Parcell Street, in the r-4, Single Family Zoning District (D12-7). This item was withdrawn by the applicant. Adjournment.

There were no speakers at this evening's meeting. Public Hearings Conducted (D13-4 thru D13-7). The regular session was recessed in order to conduct the scheduled public hearing and immediately reconvened upon their conclusion. Council Agenda Presented. The following items were presented to Council. 7A. SB 684 Legislation – Councilor Kelly 18108 Regular Session 01/08/13 7B. Item 10C moved up on the agenda – Councilor Devine 7C. R-Board – Councilor Howe SB 684 Legislation. Councilor Kelly stated that SB684 was the legislation that would allow the City to keep State sales tax for a public project. He was in Richmond with the speaker and they talked about adding the City to that legislation. He said it was being sponsored by Senator Richard Stuart and it’s going to be carried through the House by Speaker Bill Howell and will be on the docket for vote in this session. He thanked Speaker Howell and Senator Stuart for their help. Ordinance 13-01, First Read Approved, Expanding the Prohibition of Public Nudity to Public Places Generally by Repealing City Code Chapter 54 “Miscellaneous Offenses”, Section 54-14 “Nudity of Employees in Taverns, Restaurants and Other Establishments” and Enacting a New Section 54-14.1 “Public Nudity” (D13-18 thru D13-19). After staff presentation Councilor Kelly asked how many times the City had run into this situation. Commonwealth Attorney Jenkins stated that it had not been a problem, but she stated it could be a growing problem; therefore she would like to address the problem now. Councilor Kelly was concerned that the City was taking the law beyond the State’s exposure law. Mrs. Jenkins stated that the City law would be filling a gap left by the State. She said the City would not be unique in having a public nudity ordinance there are many cities and counties around the Commonwealth with a nudity ordinance. Councilor Kelly asked if any groups that would have an interest in the law were contacted while drafting the ordinance. Mrs. Jenkins said she did not consult other 18109 Regular Session 01/08/13 groups. She said the character of the City demands that people or children walking in the City should not have to be exposed to public nudity. She also addressed the email that was received and she stated that the situations the person described in the email are not covered by the ordinance. She said those are private situations that he was interjecting on the ordinance. Councilor Howe asked if the proposed ordinance was more restrictive than other ordinances throughout the State. Mrs. Jenkins said it was not and that it was modeled from the ordinance in Henrico County. Councilor Solley was concerned with “collateral damage”, someone finding themselves in trouble because of an accidental exposure, locker rooms, and children running through sprinklers. He asked was all that considered. City Attorney Dooley said the ordinance was modeled after ordinances that have been adopted by other cities and counties throughout the state and had been reviewed by the Virginia Court of Appeals. The ordinance has stood up to the test and judicial review. Councilor Kelly expressed his concerns with the City responding so aggressively to one incident. He did ask if the staff would contact the group to see what their concerns were. Councilor Ellis also asked if we really had a problem and was the City overacting. Mayor Greenlaw asked if public performances were covered as the ordinance was written. Councilor Devine stated that the staff was tightening up an oversight and she did not feel people walking on public streets and not being clothed was something citizens want to see. 18110 Regular Session 01/08/13 City Attorney Dooley explained that the ordinance does provide exemptions for public performances. She added that the arts exemption had been improved over time. Councilor Howe read a statement from the email received from Mr. Charles Harris which read, “Existing state law governing indecent exposure is adequate to deal with those types of public nudity which are demonstrably harmful to the public (as opposed to non-sexual nudity which merely offends the sensibilities of certain members of the public)” and he asked what was the reality of State law and why aren’t there laws that protect us under State law. City Attorney Dooley explained that she did not know why state law does not cover it and that is the reason the man that was walking downtown naked below the waist was not violating state law or City Code. She said that is why they were asking for an adoption of general prohibition, but she said it would be up to Council to approve. Councilor Paolucci said she agreed with Councilor Devine that the City was just trying to cover a gap left by the State law. She did not see that this ordinance was overstepping any boundaries. Councilor Paolucci moved to approve Ordinance 13-01, on first read, expanding the prohibition of public nudity to public places generally by repealing City Code Chapter 54 “Miscellaneous Offenses”, Section 54-14 “Nudity of Employees in Taverns, Restaurants and Other Establishments” and enacting a new section 54-14.1 “Public Nudity”; motion was seconded by Councilor Devine and passed by the following recorded votes. Ayes (5). Councilors Greenlaw, Devine, Howe, Paolucci and Solley. Nays (2). Councilors Ellis and Kelly. R-Board. Councilor Howe informed Council of an opportunity for the City and 18111 Regular Session 01/08/13 Stafford County regarding a green energy initiative. He said it has been presented to the R-Board and it will eventually come to Council if it pans out. Mr. Cameron added that the opportunity potentially would involve the lease of 5-acres of land at the site of the R- Board landfill and the City is 50 percent owner and it would require a public hearing. Officer Recognized. Mayor Greenlaw recognized the presence of Officer John Fesq at this evening’s meeting. City Manager’s Consent Agenda Accepted for Transmittal as Recommended (D13-8 thru D13-15). Following review and as recommended, Councilor Kelly moved approval of the City Manager's consent agenda; motion was seconded by Councilor Devine. Councilor Howe thanked the City Manager and the Public Works staff for doing significant roadway improvements near the Kendalwood Apartments. The motion passed by the following unanimously recorded votes. Ayes (7). Councilors Greenlaw, Ellis, Devine, Howe, Kelly, Paolucci and Solley. Nays (0). • Site Bond Release – Kendalwood Apartments (D13-8). • Resolution 13-01, Amending the Fiscal Year 2013 Budget by Appropriating $57,232 in the Rappahannock Regional Criminal Justice Training Academy Fund (D13-9). • Transmittal of the Fredericksburg Regional Transit Plans and Programs Relating to Non-Discrimination and the Use of Disadvantaged Business Enterprises and Small Businesses (D13-10). • Transmittal of Boards and Commission Minutes o Architectural Review Board – October 15, 2012 (D13-11). 18112 Regular Session 01/08/13 o Architectural Review Board – November 19, 2012 (D13-12). o Economic Development Authority – November 19, 2012 (D13- 13). o Potomac & Rappahannock Transportation Commission – November 1, 2012 (D13-14). o Public Transit Advisory Board – October 3, 2012 (D13-15).

Resolution 13-02 Granting a Special Exception to Karl Gentry to Use the Structure Located at 630 Pelham Street for Two Dwelling Units (D13-17). – Upon a motion and as recommended Vice-Mayor Ellis moved to approve Resolution 13-02, granting a special exception to Karl Gentry to use the structure at 630 Pelham Street for two dwelling units; motion was seconded by Councilor Devine Councilor Paolucci suggested that the applicant take steps to make the unit look more like a home such as adding a porch or changing the windows. The motion passed by the following recorded votes. Ayes (6). Councilors Greenlaw, Ellis, Devine, Howe, Kelly and Solley. Nays (1) Councilor Paolucci. Resolution 12-97, Not Approved, Authorizing the City Manager to Execute a Contract for the Riverfront Park Concept Design (Master 18113 Regular Session 01/08/13 Plan) (D13-16). City Manager Cameron reviewed the changes that were made to the contract based on Council’s requests and suggestions. The following changes were made: Section 1.3.4 was added in order to clearly list the deliverables expected. He said they also added 1.B to the Scope of Work to emphasize the importance of preparing designs that are compliant to a variety of regulatory standards imposed by State, Federal and Local authorities. Upon a motion and as recommended Councilor Solley moved to approve Resolution 12-97, authorizing the City Manager to execute a contract for the Riverfront Park Concept Design; motion was seconded by Councilor Devine. Councilor Kelly stated that this has been an issue for nearly 30 years. In 2002, the City spent money to address water runoff in some of the parking lots and areas. He said later benches were placed and way finding signage was put out there. He said this was to allow time to phase in improvements in the park setting. He said this project does need to move forward, but he wasn’t sure how. He would like to go back and look at what the park could be. Over the years the only constant with this park was that it would be a passive park setting. He does not see the need to have those same discussions with a consultant. He noted that parking was an issue that needed to be addressed, but not necessarily with the park. He said there are 93 spaces that will be lost and it will affect the day to day operations of the businesses downtown. Therefore, he would like to address the parking before putting the park here. He would like to have the discussions with Corps of Engineers and with the staff to address the Chesapeake Bay Act. He feels that this could all be done by the City and not use a consultant. He said the focus should be on an actual design and not a concept design. He suggested using people within the 18114 Regular Session 01/08/13 City with certain expertise to help by telling the City what it would take to do certain things in the park. He said the resources could be better spent elsewhere. Councilor Kelly made a substitute motion to defer until a work session could be held to discuss all aspects of the Riverfront to include parking, taskforce, and final disposition of the contract; motion was seconded by Vice-Mayor Ellis. Vice-Mayor Ellis stated that Phase A, DEL-03 was very vague and needed to be more specific by listing regulation compliance, physical and environmental constraints, operational requirements, value of the project to the community costs, and funding sources. The feasibility study should be tailored to the project therefore it should address regulation compliance, specifically the Chesapeake Bay Act, Corps of Engineers, zoning, stormwater management, other river and stream related regulations, physical and environmental constraints, soil compatibility, riverbank stabilization, impact of flooding, impact on neighborhood properties and existing foliage, operational requirements, specifically personnel and operational costs, potential pollution, utility availability requirements for upgrades. He said currently none of these are listed but he noted there was a clause for an increase in scope which would be an increase in costs. He said he wanted the requirements to be specific and the deliverables be more specific. He said the City should not get any additional design without knowing the constraints on the site. He also supports that the taskforce should include some skill sets that are not currently on the taskforce namely Kevin Utt the City’s Chesapeake Bay Act expert, and Councilor Paolucci who is the Ward 4 representative. Councilor Devine stated that she was very disappointed that they have worked so hard to get to this point to have it all change. She did not understand the comments made 18115 Regular Session 01/08/13 that the project needed to be phased in because it had been phased in. She noted that the last couple of Council’s had planned and acquired land to move forward and used the first design phase to help acquire the land for the riverfront park. She added that none of the interested groups (Friends of the Rappahannock, and Corps of Engineers) had been ignored and would be ignored in the process. The Corps of Engineers was consulted and suggested the City move forward with the design. Councilor Devine said it was the Council that charged the Taskforce to move forward with the design of the park. There has been a lot of time and energy put towards the park and Council set aside money in the budget for that purpose and she felt all the work was unwelcome and unnecessary. She said she has been proud to be a part of a Council that has taken strong action in many longtime dreams of the people in the City and it bothered her because of some of the actions between members of the Council. She expressed her unhappiness that members across the community have been asked to volunteer their time and now to put it all on hold because it’s not good enough for some. She felt these items should have been addressed when the money was set aside in the budget and not after the contract was ready for approval. Councilor Howe rehashed comments regarding the process of the courts project. He stated that the courts were promised to be consolidated, there was going to be parking for the courts, Renwick was left unfunded and there was no parking solution for the downtown businesses. He said these projects are millions of dollars and because of these experiences and because those problems have not been solved related to the courts project he is very cautious to move forward on this contract. He suggested that the City stop and assess where it is and stop having studies and then have them sit on the shelf. 18116 Regular Session 01/08/13 He didn’t think it made much sense to get a study done when there was no money to complete the project. Councilor Paolucci stated that the Taskforce should have communicated more with the City Council. She said she thought the Taskforce need to be reaffirmed. She felt there needed to be more consistency and she felt that was part of the problem. She suggested that each time Council changed hands all taskforces need to be reaffirmed and the Council be brought up to date. In regards to the contract, she received questions from citizens and she asked that they be responded to. One citizen stated that the schematic design produced under this contract will provide information for more advanced design efforts, which she thought could lead to additional costs. She wanted to know what those additional costs would be. The citizen also asked about a base map versus a design plan, so she wanted to know why go with a design plan instead of a base map. He also recommended using City talent to design the park by having a contest and from those design go to a consultant. She didn’t understand how the City could be getting a design for a park and not address the parking issue. She said this was the biggest issue downtown. She said the lack of communication has been poor and she suggests starting with a work session to begin working on the communication. Councilor Solley stated that he did not understand how having a taskforce to assist the staff undertake a project and allowing the public to assist and volunteer their time had resulted in secrecy and a lack of communication. He said the next phase of the project had been given to Council so that everyone would know what was going on and that phase will consist of considerable public input. It will require consultation with concerned stakeholders and agencies and he felt this had also been overlooked. 18117 Regular Session 01/08/13 Councilor Solley addressed the concerns as follows: Look again at what the park could be - the taskforce has spent considerable time looking at what the park could be with consultation from people who do that for a living. He states most of the concerns of Councilor Kelly have been done, are being done or will be done as part of the next phase as it is designed. He said Mr. Kelly’s concerns were reasonable but the belief that the Taskforce needed to stop and backup were not reasonable. Parking – parking is a concern for the taskforce since the park would take up current parking spaces. He said this would be done in the design phase. He said there will be additional opportunities for the public to address parking. Corps of Engineers and Friends of the Rappahannock (FOR) – FOR has a member on the taskforce and they are involved with the Chesapeake Bay Act and its effects on the river. There are also two representatives from staff on the Taskforce, as well as the Taskforce, who Councilor Solley said could call on the City’s expert at any time. He didn’t see the need for every person with every expertise to sit on the taskforce. He read a statement from a letter written by Mr. Hal Wiggins that said “the development of the riverfront project would primarily occur in the upland and would not require a Corp permit”. He said Mr. Wiggins clarified by saying “The Corp takes no position on the Riverfront Park where work would occur in the uplands. The Corp does agree the planning for this project is a good idea and the idea of a riverfront park is certainly compatible with the review of a future application and permitting of a sustainable plan for riverfront stabilization”. Archeological work – the City has been progressive with permitting and commissioning archeological work before work is done in the downtown area so that the past can be 18118 Regular Session 01/08/13 discovered, and recorded. There is also someone on the taskforce with archeological expertise. Third concept design – the first drawing was in 1982 and he didn’t think it had much bearing on what was being done now. The second design was commissioned before the Taskforce and had a very narrow original focus. The second design did not take into consideration the properties that had been acquired by the City and that was the reason the taskforce was convened to determine if that concept design would still be feasible. It was determined that it was not. Layout and design – there must be a layout and design phase in order to look at it. He said you can’t look at detail if you don’t have a concept design. Phase the project – the project has been phased. Phase one was the interim park. The park was stopped because of an economic crisis and in the interest of the taxpayer they did not want to proceed. Feasibility study – much of what would be looked at in a feasibility study has already been done or will be looked at in the design phase. Every element of the park will be looked at including the economic development of Sophia Street Contract – the City Manager and Assistant City Manager have been involved in hundreds of contracts and most all have been successful and none have been reviewed by the Council only the PPEA projects. He also pointed out the City Code states that the City Manager has control over the levying of contracts over all the work in the City. He thought this was a grave mistake for Council to get involved in changing the contract. Budget – he didn’t see it as a problem with the money, he felt it was more of what the money was being spent on. 18119 Regular Session 01/08/13 Stabilization not mentioned in contract – he read several areas that mentioned shore line issues, shore line treatment and steep slopes which are riverbank stabilization. Funding Source – he added that the Riverfront Taskforce had not been required to identify a funding source that would be up to Council to determine. Taskforce not doing its job – they brought the original design to Council as they were tasked to do, they were tasked to review the other design and Councilor Solley reported it in April 2012 and no comments were made for additional information. Mayor Greenlaw stated they were in the design process and she said the project cannot go forward without the design. The design would determine what was feasible, what can be put there and what rules and regulations there are for the property and for the stabilization of the bank. She felt there was a basic misunderstanding. The design would allow Council to know what the cost would be. Council continued to address their previously stated points and Vice-Mayor Ellis suggested Council hold a work session to resolve all the issues. He asked each of the Council to come forward with their issues and have a resolution for each of them. The motion to defer until a work session is held passed by the following recorded votes. Ayes (4). Councilors Ellis, Howe, Kelly and Paolucci. Nays (3). Councilors Greenlaw, Devine and Solley. City Manager’s Report and Council Calendar (D12-20 thru D13- 21). City Manager Cameron asked if there were any questions regarding the Manager’s report or the Council Calendar. Activities highlighted on the report were as follows: Fredericksburg First Night, Fredericksburg Fire Productions, Storage Area Network and Virtualization, Tourism Team Hits the Road to Sell the City, Region, FRED Transit 18120 Regular Session 01/08/13 Receives Grants from Community Partners, Toys for Tots, and Sesquicentennial Events Bring Media Coverage to City. City Manager Cameron listed all the work session that need to be held within the next few months they included an Organizational Study, Parking, Proposal from Commissioner of Revenue to join Northern Virginia Cigarette Tax Board, Follow-up on UDO, Follow-up on Scope of Renovations at General District Court Building and the Budget presentations begin March 12. Councilor Howe listed two more work sessions that were needed Renwick and BPOL. City Manager Cameron stated that the BPOL would be part of the Budget process and Renwick did not need to be addressed within the next couple of months. Councilor Howe thought it should be addressed before the budget process began. Adjournment. There being no further business to come before the Council at this time, Mayor Greenlaw declared the meeting officially adjourned at 10:13p.m. Mary Katherine Greenlaw Mary Katherine Greenlaw, Mayor Tonya B.
