SDCC General Meeting – Monday May 19, 2008,  7:30 to 9:00pm
Ocean Park Volunteer Rescue Squad Hall (parking in back, on side streets and across Shore Drive)

There are no planned programs for this month.  This time will be deferred to the Old/New business due to the many
important issues and concerns that need to be addressed.

The general agenda for the evening will be: 

Officer’s Reports – Brief Reports
Secretary – Tim
Treasurer’s Report – Leslie
Vice President & President – Daphne & Todd

Old Business- 
Indigo Dunes Project – Department of Environmental Quality (DEQ) has issued a Preliminary Permit and will be
holding a public hearing at their office 5636 Southern Blvd on Monday June 9th.  The formal hearing starts at 7:30pm,
but the informal part starts at 6:30pm.  The informal part will include a presentation by me on the draft permit, a possible
presentation by the applicant (if they choose to do so), and Q&A. The comment period continues until June 24th and
written comments will be accepted until then.

Lynnhaven River Proposed Spoils Transfer Station – SDCC has sent a letter of opposition to the LBR site and a
letter requesting Council to make an official vote on any site that is picked No response has been received.  Only 3
sites are being considered, Saw Pen Point, Thalia Elementary and LBR.  City Staff plans to present City Council their
recommendation on Friday May 23rd , it’s unknown if this briefing is open to the public.  If the LBR site is chosen, the
VMRC plans to hold a public hearing on Tuesday July 22nd.  Residents will be asked to send emails and make phone
calls to Council members letting them know that LBR is the wrong site.

Cape Henry Beach Sand Replenishment – City Council and the City’s Attorney’s Office have issued letters to 6
groups stating their claim to public easement and plans to move ahead with paperwork to make Cape Henry Beach the
spoils site for the next dredge cycle in 2009/2010.

Proposed Rezoning of City Marina – Planning Commission review hearing was deferred.  A new review date has not
been set.  It was deferred to provide more detail on proffers/restrictions for the request to rezone the marina to B-1. 
SDCC will be taking an official position vote on this at our June 30th meeting.  SDCC reps need to discuss this with their
organizations before then.  Visit the website for latest proffers and restrictions.  Remember, the current arrangement is a
money making venture for the City, about $50,000 per year.  Making it a private venture runs the risk of losing this
income.

SDCC Oyster Roast – Mark your calendars for Saturday Nov 15th from noon until 4pm at the VB Resort Conference
Hotel.  Committee meeting will begin in June/July.  Email Todd if you’re interested in helping.  Todd@sdcc.info
 
SDCC Officer Nomination Committee – The nominating committee is getting an early start for the upcoming election
of 2008/9 officers.  If you are interested in running or know of anyone that may be, please contact Dan Creedon at
DanVaB@aol.com.  The committee will make their presentation of names at the October 27th general meeting.
Shore Drive Clean Up – Clean up held on May 10th was a success.  Thanks to those dozen volunteers who came out. 
Periodic clean ups have resulted in less trash being found each time.  Keep up the good work.  More volunteers are
always welcome. 

New Business – 
Action Plans for LBR – Discuss and vote on any actions or position statements.  Since validation has been received
showing that the State did pay for a portion of the ramp, Joe Bouchard has been asked to weigh in on the LBR site, but
no response has been received to date.

Action Plans for PHP – Discuss and vote on any actions or position statements.  Email campaign, call list to get people
to the public hearing, etc.  Make sure your groups are filling in the call list blanks for those willing to attend meeting in a
show of support.
