"Billy" Hobbs, Jr., Will Moffett, Chris Snead, Christopher G. Stuart, Donnie R. Tuck, George E. Wallace, Molly Joseph Ward, Mayor Staff: Mary Bunting, City Manager Cynthia Hudson, City Attorney Katherine K. Glass, CMC, Clerk of Council Last Published: 9/6/2013 2:44:49 PM  WELCOME TO THE HAMPTON CITY COUNCIL MEETING Because of the large number of matters that need consideration, the City Council has established a meeting format and certain guidelines for citizen participation. These help ensure that everyone who wishes to speak can do so, and that the Council can benefit from hearing as many different people as possible in the shortest time. From time to time, It may be in the public's interest to change the format and guidelines, and the Council can do so at its discretion without prior notice. THE ORDER OF BUSINESS The Council generally conducts meetings in the following order: (1) Call to Order (2) Ceremonial Matters (3) Consent Agenda (4) Regular Business Agenda (5) Miscellaneous New Business (6) Adjournment Agenda items are taken up one at a time in the order in which they are listed. Matters on the consent agenda are routine and are adopted by one motion without seperate discussion. However, items can be moved from the consent agenda to the regular agenda upon request by a citizen or a member of the Council. Keep in mind that the agenda is for the convenience of the public and the Council, and that it can be altered by the Council at any time without prior notice when the Council considers it in the public's interest to do so. CITIZENS ARE INVITED TO PARTICIPATE The City Council has adopted a three (3) minute time limit policy for individuals desiring to address issues before this body. If you wish to address the City Council, please sign in before the meeting on the sign-up sheet located in the rear of Council Chambers. Please include your name and the subject on which you wish to speak, including the docket number if it is an item on the agenda. If you wish to address Council on a non-agenda item, the permission of Council is necessary. If you are with a group of people, you may want to have a spokesman or two present your position to the Council and have others in agreement recognized by standing. The Council will always try to hear everyone who wishes to speak on a subject, but sometimes discussion has to be limited due to time. If the previous speaker has stated your position, you may make that known by reference (for example, "I agree with the position stated by Mr. Jones and have nothing further to add"). Repetition of positions by more than one speaker often uses more time than necessary. Speakers are generally limited to one appearance, although Council can allow exceptions at its discretion. If possible, you should speak from prepared remarks to the subject under discussion. Irrelevant comments use others' time and your own and detract from your statements on the matter being considered. Meetings of the Council are formal proceedings, and all comments are recorded on tape and by stenographer. For that reason, you are requested not to speak from your seat or out of turn. When you are called by the presiding officer, please follow these steps: (1) Come forward to the speaker's podium. (2) State your name and address (3) State your conclusion and give facts and other data to back it up. (4) If you represent a group or organization, ask the others to rise and be recognized. (5) If you have a written statement, give it and other supportive material to the Clerk for the record. The above guidelines are intended to encourage the greatest possible participation by citizens at Council meetings. They can be modified at any time by the Council at its discretion and without prior notice. Thank you for taking your time to participate in the Council meeting. Good government depends on the interest and involvement of you and your fellow citizens. We invite you to return. CALL TO ORDER/ROLL CALL INVOCATION - Councilman Chris Stuart PLEDGE OF ALLEGIANCE TO FLAG MAYOR'S COMMENTS CONSENT AGENDA Consent Items 1. 13-0354 Approval of the minutes from the special meeting of July 16, 2013, and the evening meeting of August 14, 2013. 2. 13-0350 Resolution Approving the City of Hampton, Virginia's Participation and Appropriation of Funds for the 2012 Tobacco Use Prevention for Children Received from the Virginia Foundation of Healthy Youth 3. 13-0351 Resolution Approving the City of Hampton, Virginia's Participation and Appropriation of the Commonwealth of Virginia Department of Conservation and Recreation, Dam Safety, Flood Prevention and Protection Assistance Fund 4. 13-0352 Resolution Approving the City of Hampton, Virginia's Participation and Appropriation of the Hazard mitigation Grant Program through the Virginia Department of Emergency Management 5. 13-0353 Resolution approving and appropriating additional 2013 Fire Programs Aid to Localities Funds from the Commonwealth of Virginia -- Department of Fire Programs 6. 13-0356 Resolution Appropriating Funds for Uncompleted Capital Projects Funded with General Funds, Stormwater Funds, Economic Development Funds and Economic Development Authority Funds 7. 13-0357 Resolution Approving the City of Hampton, Virginia's Participation and Appropriation of the Highway Safety Grant (Selective Enforcement-Speed) through the Commonwealth of Virginia Department of Motor Vehicles 8. 13-0358 Resolution Approving FY13 Year End Budget Adjustments City of Hampton, VA Page 3 Printed on 9/6/2013 City Council Council Agenda Wednesday, September 11, 2013 9. 13-0366 Resolution Authorizing $162,459.68 Appropriation From The City’s General Fund Committed Fund Balance To The “Transfer Virginia Air & Space Center Account” 10. 13-0378 An Ordinance To Amend And Reenact Chapter 37 “Taxation” Of The Code Of The City Of Hampton, Article III, “Personal Property Taxes,” Section 37-142 “Filing Of Return Required.” PRESENTATIONS, PROCLAMATIONS, AWARDS PUBLIC HEARINGS Rezonings 11. 13-0303 Rezoning Application No. 1310-2013 by TR Development LLC to rezone a parcel at 978 Big Bethel Road [LRSN 4001445], totaling 2.78± acres from Neighborhood Commercial District (C-1) to a Limited Commercial District (C-2) with conditions, to construct and operate a Funeral Home and Crematorium.
