DISTINGUISHED BUDGET PRESENTATION AWARD The Government Finance Officers Association of the United States and Canada (GFOA) presented an award of Distinguished Presentation to the City of Norfolk, Virginia for its annual budget for the fiscal year beginning July 1, 2005. (The review process by GFOA has not commenced for the annual budget for the fiscal year beginning July 1, 2006.) In order to receive this award, a government unit must publish a budget document that meets program criteria as a policy document, as an operations guide, as a financial plan and as a communication device. The award is valid for a period of one year only. We believe our current budget continues to conform to program requirements and we will submit it to GFOA for eligibility. CITY COUNCIL’S VISION OF NORFOLK The City of Norfolk continues to stay the course by remaining true to its vision. In the early 1990’s City Council established the vision of Norfolk and the current City Council and City Administration remain committed to executing and maintaining the vision. Norfolk is a national leader in the quality of life offered to all its residents. This is achieved through effective partnerships between City government and its constituents. As a result, Norfolk is a physically attractive, socially supportive, and financially sound city. Here, the sense of community is strong. Neighborhoods are designed so that people of all ages can know their neighbors and travel the streets and sidewalks in safety. This sense of community exists citywide. Norfolk is known nationally as a strategically located place where there are abundant and fulfilling employment, recreational, and educational opportunities. Our Priorities: • Community Building • Education • Public Accountability • Public Safety • Regional Partnerships • Economic Development CITY OF NORFOLK, VIRGINIA YOUR GOVERNMENT AT WORK FOR YOU Norfolk City Council is the legislative body of the City government. It is authorized to exercise all the powers conferred upon the City by the Commonwealth of Virginia in the State constitution, State laws and the Charter of the City of Norfolk.

  • Seeking Qualifications for Developers & Development Teams
    City of Norfolk Military Circle Redevelopment Request For Qualifications (RFQ) Seeking Qualifications for Developers & Development Teams 999 Waterside Drive Deadline: November 20, 2020 COB Suite 2430, Norfolk, VA 23510 (757) 664-4338 norfolkdevelopment.com Introduction Purpose of RFQ The Economic Development Authority of the City of Norfolk (EDA) invites qualified local, regional, and national real estate developers and their development teams to submit their qualifications for consideration to lead the redevelopment of Military Circle Mall, an under-performing asset in the City of Norfolk. The EDA is a political subdivision of the Commonwealth of Virginia authorized to acquire, own, lease, and dispose of properties, promote industry, and develop trade for the benefit of the City of Norfolk. The EDA purchased the Mall property and the former DoubleTree Hotel in June 2020. The EDA is seeking statements of qualifications from real estate developers and their development teams to lead the redevelopment of Military Circle Mall. The approximately 935,000 square-foot mall, its parking lots and outparcels occupy approximately 89 acres— of which approximately 73 are EDA owned or controlled—at the crossroads of two interstate highways in the heart of the Hampton Roads region (see map in Appendix A). It is the EDA’s intent that Military Circle be transformed into a mixed-use district with office, multi- family residential, retail and other amenities that will revitalize the commercial corridor in which it sits. The office development will be undertaken in consideration of an existing 200,000 square-foot Optima Health office building adjacent to the mall on approximately 16 acres that is owned by MBP, Inc.

    The Big Dome October 15, 2020 | Source: http://spotlightnews.press/index.php/2020/10/15/the-big-dome/ Words by Penny Neef Photos by David Sullivan Featured Image Courtesy of The Norfolk Housing and Redevelopment Authority Scope Arena is a landmark in downtown Norfolk. It’s hard to miss that big dome of concrete and the 24 midcentury modern flying buttresses that surround it and support it. There have been many impressive arenas built around the world, but Scope remains the world’s largest thin-shell concrete domed building. The world’s largest, right here in Hampton Roads. Scope Arena was designed as just one part of Norfolk Cultural and Convention Center, which also includes Chrysler Hall, the plaza that connects the two buildings, a below grade Exhibition Hall and an underground parking garage. Construction began in 1968 on the north edge of downtown Norfolk. This massive project was conceived as a post-WW II revitalization of Norfolk. City leaders wanted to “step up” Norfolk’s cultural footprint, and attract sports teams,bigger acts and bigger crowds to Hampton Roads. The city leaders, led by Lawrence Cox, Executive Director of Norfolk Redevelopment and Housing Authority (NRHA), were willing to go cutting edge on design and construction. They wanted to build something “iconic” that would attract attention (and visitors) to Hampton Roads. This led them to Pier Luigi Nervi, an Italian architect know best for his expertise in using reinforced concrete to create curving forms and domed structures. Nervi designed Pallazzetto dello Sport for the 1960 Summer Olympics in Rome. Basketball was played there.
