Rahm – Director of Trinity Episcopal Church, 825 College Avenue, appreciated the proposal will allow 2 hour restricted parking around Trinity Church. He said they looked forward to working out details on how to handle parking during large funerals and other events. He said he was also thankful for the guest passes and for the idea that some of the proposals may be tweaked in the future if they did not work. Rev. Anne Jones Martin (D18-235) – Pastor of Christ Lutheran Church, 1300 Augustine Avenue, made reference to a letter dated June 26, 2018 (D18-235). She thanked Mr. Fawcett for his efforts in developing a parking plan that aims to meet the needs of all the neighbors in College Heights. She expressed her support of the recommendation by the Parking Committee to accommodate on street church parking. Pastor Martin asked the Council to support the issuing of a number of visitor parking passes to the church for use by those attending meetings, functions or events at the church that exceed 2 hours. See (D18- 235) for more information. Ronald Amon (D18-236) – 1436 Buckner Street, stated that College Heights was being invaded by both students and church member and he said both populations must be targeted or no one gets targeted because it would be a violation of the 14 Amendment’s Equal Protection Clause. He said the City focusing on the UMW students has caused College Heights west residents, west of Stafford Avenue to be ignored. Mr. Amon said they have a problem with hordes of church people flooding their neighborhood. He said it was a waste of time to restrict parking then hand out church exemptions. Mr. Amon was not in support of the proposed resolution or ordinance. 19980 Public Hearing 06/26/18 Gannon Sims (D18-237) – 3204 Linden Avenue, spoke on behalf of the young adult community in the College Heights area. The young adults are both students and church members. He said they rely on parking along Augustine, Stafford and College Avenues. Many of the students commute in from Germanna and they hold many community events. Mr. Sims said having some two hour parking along Stafford Avenue and Augustine Avenue would be helpful to them. Hillary Casey – 1206 College Avenue, she said she has lived in the City for three years and she loves living across from the beautiful campus but she talked about the difficulties with the parking. She talked about how difficult it was to have contractors come and because of students parking in front of their homes all day and there was no place for the contractors to park. She said she understand the difficulties of those working at the college and this may cause them to have to walk a further distance. She thanked everyone who worked with the Parking Advisory Committee and said the efforts do not go unnoticed. Ms. Casey asked the Council to approve the proposed ordinance. Meredith Beckett – 1401 Brent Street, College Heights president, said over the past 15 months the Board of Directors has been working with Assistant City Manager Fawcett and Councilor Duffy on the parking in College Heights. She said the proposed ordinance was a result of those discussions. Ms. Beckett said parking had always been an issue since she has been on the Board as well as during her time served on the Town and Gown. There was no perfect solution but she said this was a start to correcting the problems. Harriett Rowe – 1238 Brent Street, asked for clarification on the church parking along Augustine Avenue and Brent Street. Mr. Fawcett clarified that the parking would be in front of the church, on Brent Street, Dandridge Street and Augustine Avenue. Additional to 19981 Public Hearing 06/26/18 that across the street from all three of the fronts. Mr. Fawcett also explained that both sides of College Avenue between William and Hanover were also proposed be two hour parking. Paul Fallon – 1813 Genther Lane, a professor at the University of Mary Washington, stated that the City Council was voting on an ordinance that would bestow privileges to residents of College Heights and College Terrace neighborhoods but would discriminate against others that work and do business with the University. Mr. Fallon spoke about the Walker parking report and he said it did not show there was a parking shortage. He suggested giving those residents without off street parking assigned parking spaces. He stated that given there was no real issue, he did not see the need for the proposed changes. Brett Smith – 1508 College Avenue, said there has been a long effort over the past 15 months dealing with parking, but the concern they had was the two hour parking from 7:00 a.m. to 7:00 p.m. and said this would allow students to park on Friday nights and stay until Monday morning which would take up parking on the weekends. He said they are the only single family private residence between 1500-1600 blocks and they are concerned with the homes becoming more of rental properties. Nabil Al-Tikriti, professor at the University of Mary Washington, said he agreed with much of what Professor Paul Fallon stated. He said the parking changes were very aggressive to the University and its interest in the community. He said the University was facing many challenges and it did not need this on top of those challenges. Michael Casey – 1206 College Avenue, said he had attended many of the meetings and he was in awe of all the work put in by the Civic associations, the Council, Mr. Fawcett, the Police Department representative, the University representatives and he said it had restored his faith in the democratic process. He said to see the people come together and make compromises was amazing. He asked the Council to step back and look at what’s 19982 Public Hearing 06/26/18 being proposed and do the right thing by taking steps that would influence behaviors, and that were for the betterment of the public. He told the Council they would not make everyone happy. Georgia Strentz – 922 Grove Avenue, expressed her concern with the opening of the University gate on Sunken Road because Sunken Road was so narrow. She said the cars speed through the area. She asked if the City gave them permission or if they have the right to open it. She said if this was going to happen there should be speed bumps put in place. Mr. Fawcett explained that the University had the right to open the gate without permission from the City. He said the opening of the gate was going to be restricted during the daylight hours, Monday through Friday and it had been negotiated with the University. He said there were enforcement issues and they would be able to compare traffic counts and speed counts and they monitoring those concerns. John Nere – 1718 College Avenue, thanked the Parking Advisory Committee for all of their work. He said this had been a fifteen month process and he said the University had not been ignored through the process. He mention the fact that originally there was supposed to be metered parking along the University side of College Avenue, now that side would have no restrictions. He said both the residence and the University had to make compromises. He said when this is finalized there would be free parking on the streets as well on the University property. Councilor Duffy thanked everyone who was involved through this process and he said it was impossible to have a plan to please everyone. He said he thought this was a good compromise. 19983 Public Hearing 06/26/18 Councilor Frye asked if the University had considered running a shuttle from their parking lots/garage and Mr. Fawcett said they had and it was still a possibility. They also thought about partnering with FRED Transit. Councilor Frye asked if the City could address the parking issue raised by Mr. Smith and Mr. Fawcett said the proposal from the Parking Advisory Committee emphasizes that the program would be for the coming academic period and the Committee committed to a formal review of the entire program at the end of the academic year. The Committee will also submit a report to the Council by July 31, 2019 and it would include any recommended changes. Mr. Fawcett said he would like to wait 3-4 months before any suggested changes were made. Vice-Mayor Withers clarified that during the discussions on the parking passes for the churches it was not a unanimous vote there were three members who did not think it was appropriate to issue those passes. HE said other than that they agreed on the other items. Mayor Greenlaw thanked all the staff, Council, the University and residents who were involved throughout this process. She said this was a difficult issue and that it was a common issue for all College and University towns throughout the State. Councilor Kelly thanked Councilor Duffy, Vice-Mayor Withers, Mr. Fawcett and the Parking Committee for all of their time and effort. He explained that because the University was a State institution, unlike anyone else, they do not have to meet parking regulations. He said the University had not been focusing on parking and he suggested those who work for the University start asking what the plans are for future parking. In regards to the churches, he stated that they were already there and there was no other way to address their needs 19984 Public Hearing 06/26/18 because everything around them was built up and there was no other way address their needs.

Mr. Freehling began with a PowerPoint presentation and he said the key to a good story was the 5 19989 Regular Session 06/26/18 W’s, the who, the what, the when, the where and the why and in this case the how and what comes next. The who is the Potomac Nationals, a Class A affiliate of the Washington Nationals in Woodbridge, VA. The Potomac Nationals have been owned for 29 years by the Silber family and they would like to relocate their team to the City of Fredericksburg. The what, is a multi-purpose stadium that would be privately financed, operated and maintained in Celebrate Virginia South. The 5000 seat stadium would be a great amenity for minor league baseball as well as an array of community events, sporting events and concerts. The when, the letter of intent would come to the City Council on July 10 and if approved there would be a 120 day study period with hopes of definitive agreement between the City and the Potomac Nationals. The team would be renamed and opening day would be in April of 2020. The where, would be in Celebrate Virginia which is a tourism campus. The why, is because it was consistent with the City goals, it’s a valuable marketing opportunity, the use of the stadium for an array of events, and it would be a community asset and it would be a quality of life amenity for the region. The how, it would be privately financed, City would make a $1.05 million payment a year for 30 years and staff believes it would be offset by revenue generated from the stadium and the City would be considered an anchor tenant. The next steps would include the letter of intent, 120 day study period, stadium design and finance, legislative approvals, definitive agreements, planning and permitting, construction and opening day. Mr. Art Silber, owner of the Potomac Nationals for 29 years, said this had been an extraordinary experience working with city staff and it enable them to make decision to come to the City. Mr. Silber gave a brief overview of how it all got started, beginning when he was the age of 7 and he went to his first baseball game. He also gave a briefing on all the 19990 Regular Session 06/26/18 accomplishments he has had over the years. Mr. Silber said there was a lot of work to be completed over the next 120 days. He has already engaged an architectural firm, selected a general contractor, he has worked out a deal for the land with the Silver Companies and they were about to put the job out for bid to make sure it could be built for $35 million. Mr. Silber said if he didn’t think this would work he would not risk the value of the ball club. Mr. Silber showed the pictures of the proposed stadium and described the amenities that would be included. He also spoke about some of the events that are held at their facilities. He said they want to provide family affordable entertainment. Mr. Silber said they strongly believe in this community. Mayor Greenlaw thanked Mr. Silber and explained that this had been an ongoing discussion to bring this project to this point and it would continue to be an ongoing discussion to include the public. City Manager Baroody stated that it had been a pleasure to work with the Silber’s and he said he would like to schedule the letter of intent (LOI) to be submitted to the City Council at the next Council meeting. Councilor Kelly thanked the Silber family for bringing this unique opportunity to the City. He said it would enhance the recreational activities, bring community events to the City, and enhance economic development and bringing a piece of the Washington Nationals to the City. Councilor Kelly explained that projects like this were normally public/private partnership and he said this is project was but it was a unique project because most were community financed and the cities are usually responsible for the maintenance and up keep of the facility. In this proposed deal, the roles are reversed and it is advantageous for the City. Councilor Frye extended his thanks to the Silber’s for considering Fredericksburg. He also thanked the staff for their work on this project and he said having this come to the 19991 Regular Session 06/26/18 City was great and it would expose many kids to something different. This project would also expose the underserved youth to something they would not normally be able to see or do. Mr. Silber said they were cognizant that people cannot afford to attend National games and some cannot afford the minor league games, therefore, every Monday night is $1.00 night. He said this is the best night of the week. Councilor Ellis said he was involved heavily on the first baseball opportunity the City had and this was a far better deal. He said the Council pressed staff pretty hard and here they are with this great opportunity. Mr. Silber stated that they hire a lot of the children in the community and many times it is their first jobs. He said they teach the kids good hygiene, how to get to work on time, how to dress properly. He said they have created over 6000 jobs over the years. Councilor Duffy thanked the Silber’s and staff, he said he would be looking forward to this. Vice-Mayor Withers thanked the Silber’s family for the opportunity. Mr. Freehling announced the website for the project www.fredericksburgbaseball.com. Public Hearings (D18-232 thru D18-239).
