Trimmer, James Spore) Vision Element(s): Thriving Economy Activities: • Redevelop an Agriculture Business Analysis and Expansion Strategy • Agriculture Reserve Program Status : As of December 31, 2013, the Agricultural Reserve Program (ARP) has enrolled 9,223.61 acres of agricultural land. The Agriculture Department has worked with the Virginia Department of Agriculture and Consumer Services (VDACS) to secure $642,911.66 in total reimbursement funding for the ARP program. The City’s ARP program compliments the Governor’s State initiative of protecting agriculture land for future generations and preserving the State’s overall number one industry, Agriculture. At this time, there are currently five applications that have accepted offers to purchase their development rights with an easement value of $3,789,376 on 469.22 acres. In an effort to preserve, sustain, and continue to grow the agriculture business sector in Virginia Beach, the Agriculture Department pursued an opportunity to provide farm stand markets at local libraries. Agriculture partnered with Public Libraries and two local farms, Vaughan Family Produce and Flanagan Farms, to provide fresh produce at Kempsville Library and the Meyera E. Oberndorf Central Library two times a week during children and family programing hours; high traffic time frames. Participating farmers started the week of June 2nd with a plan to provide their produce market once a week but demand quickly resulted in two times a week at both locations through Labor Day, September 2nd. Both farm stand participants reported sales to 200+ customers each week, resulting in service delivery to 5,200 citizens. This partnership provided citizens convenient access to

  • Affected Environment and Environmental Consequences

    Affected Environment and Environmental Consequences

    Draft Supplemental Environmental Impact Statement Chapter 3: Affected Environment & Environmental Consequences 3.15 INDIRECT AND CUMULATIVE IMPACTS 3.15.1 Regulatory Context and Methodology NEPA legislation does not mention indirect or cumulative impacts; however, the Council on Environmental Quality (CEQ) regulations for implementing NEPA address federal agency responsibilities applicable to indirect and cumulative considerations, analysis, and documentation requirements (40 CFR 1508.25) for the environmental consequences section of an EIS (40 CFR 1502.16) (FHWA, 2014). In addition to CEQ’s regulations, indirect and cumulative effects assessment is conducted in accordance with the requirements and processes outlined in 23 CFR Part 771, FHWA Interim Guidance: Indirect and Cumulative Impacts in NEPA (2003), FHWA Position Paper on Secondary and Cumulative Impact Assessment (1992), FHWA’s Questions and Answers on Considering Indirect and Cumulative Impacts in the NEPA Process (2015), the Transportation Research Board’s (TRB) National Cooperative Highway Research Program (NCHRP) Report 466: Desk Reference for Estimating the Indirect Effect of Proposed Transportation Projects (TRB, 2002), NCHRP Project 25-25 Task 22: Land Use Forecasting for Indirect Impacts Analysis (TRB, 2005), NCHRP Project 25-25 Task 11: Secondary/Indirect and Cumulative Effects Analysis (TRB, 2006), as well as CEQ’s Considering Cumulative Effects under the National Environmental Policy Act (1997) and Guidance on the Consideration of Past Actions in Cumulative Effects Analysis (2005). CEQ defines indirect effects as “…effects which are caused by the action and are later in time or farther removed in distance, but are still reasonably foreseeable (40 CFR 1508.8[b]). Indirect effects may include growth-inducing effects and other effects related to induced changes in the pattern of land use, population density or growth rate, and related effects on air and water and other natural systems, including ecosystems” (40 CFR 1508.8[b]).

Governor Ralph Northam declared a state of emergency in Virginia on Thursday, March 12, 2020 in response to COVID-19. In light of this action, we have decided to conduct the March 17, 2021 Commonwealth Transportation Board (CTB) meeting using electronic communications in accord with Item 4-0.01.g. of Chapter 1289 (2020 Acts of Assembly), as the COVID-19 emergency makes it impracticable or unsafe to assemble in a single location. The purpose of the meeting is to discuss or transact the business statutorily required or necessary to continue operation of the CTB and the discharge of its lawful purposes, duties, and responsibilities. All board members will be participating remotely. The public may view the meeting via live stream by clicking the "View video" button at the following link: http://www.ctb.virginia.gov/public_meetings/live_stream/default.asp.

    MEMORANDUM US 13 Attachment

    MEMORANDUM TO: HRTO Subcommittee FROM: Jon Chambers, P.E. DATE: December 7, 2018 SUBJECT: Hampton Roads Transportation Operations Strategy – Phase II Corridors of Regional Significance The purpose of this document is to analyze five Corridors of Regional Significance (CORS) to identify the existing conditions and needs along these corridors. Specifically, this analysis looks at the need for high-speed communication upgrades, traffic sensors, and coordinated signal timings. The five corridors examined in this analysis are: US 13 Rt. 143/Jefferson Avenue Warwick Boulevard US 17 US 58 The following existing condition information has been compiled from GIS data. For each corridor, the existing system information has been divided into four subsections of needs: high-speed communications, traffic detectors, signal coordination, and Traveler Information Systems. The data gathered has been consolidated into a GIS database and overall map for ease of reference. The following sections provide written explanation of the contents of the maps. US 13 US 13 was examined starting in Suffolk to the west at the US 13 and Rt. 32 split, through Chesapeake and Norfolk, ending in Virginia Beach at the Chesapeake Bay Bridge Tunnel approach. Due to the extensive length of this corridor, the operational influences can vary from one end to the other. On the west end of Suffolk, the operational needs are somewhat internal to the City with traffic influences coming from US 460 and US 58 from the west, railroad crossing impacts, as well as impacts of US58 Business versus the US 58 Bypass. From Bowers Hill to the Northampton intersection, the corridor can be viewed as a parallel route to I- 64 for diversion measures.

    2045 Long-Range Transportation Plan – Update

    AGENDA ITEM #8: 2045 LONG-RANGE TRANSPORTATION PLAN – UPDATE Over the past five years, HRTPO staff, in partnership with regional stakeholders, have been updating the LRTP to the horizon year of 2045, with the goal of identifying multimodal projects and studies aimed at improving economic vitality and quality of life for residents, businesses, and industries across Hampton Roads. The identification of multimodal investments for the 2045 LRTP is based on a detailed evaluation of approximately 260 candidate projects using the Board-approved Regional Scenario Planning Framework, updated HRTPO Project Prioritization Tool, and available financial resources. HRTPO staff presented the draft 2045 LRTP Fiscally Constrained List of Projects to FTAC at its February 23, 2021 meeting. Based on a recommended approval from the Transportation Technical Advisory Committee and Resolutions of Support from the Community Advisory Committee and FTAC, the HRTPO Board approved the 2045 LRTP Fiscally Constrained List of Projects and associated 2045 LRTP Funding Plan and Project Information Guide reports at its March 29, 2021 meeting. As part of Federal requirements, a Regional Conformity Assessment (RCA) on the 2045 LRTP and 2021-2024 Transportation Improvement Program was completed and recently submitted to the Federal Highway Administration for review. Once the Federal review of the RCA is complete and a finding of conformity issued, the HRTPO Board can officially adopt the 2045 LRTP (on schedule for June/July 2021).
