As you know, the facility has served the City well over its 55 years, having hosted over 5,000 events, and it continues to be well used with an average of 117 events per year. However, many of the building’s critical systems date from 1960 and are in need of replacement. Since 1995, the City has repeatedly studied what to do with the facility. Most recently, in 2012, a public-private partnership to implement a renovation project did not come to fruition. The VMC Options Study takes a comparative look at different potential options and their long-term financial implications. The options explored in the report that follow include: Continue Current Operations/Temporary Closure Permanent Closure/Deconstruct for Future Redevelopment Renovate/Remodel/Transform (including 5 scenarios of various magnitudes) The VMC Options Study Report does not make a recommendation about a preferred course of action. The information provided here is intended to help Council and the public better understand the opportunities and challenges of several options for the future of the VMC. This study provides an overview of each option, along with financial information, rough cost estimates, and risks associated with each alternative. After reviewing the findings in this report, I offer the following observations: While it may be the most obvious course of action for the near-term, the option of continuing current operations of the facility and addressing system failures as they occur with emergency repairs and temporary closures is going to become less sustainable over time. Continuing on this path for very long could cost the City significant resources while eroding the viability of the facility as a spectator venue. While it’s likely we can continue status quo operations at the VMC for a period of one to two years, continued operations for an indefinite period without a long-term plan for the facility is not a sustainable or fiscally responsible course of action. Reasonable options for renovation exist. While they involve significant capital investments, both the Tenant/User Enhancements and Strategic Market Enhancements options present alternatives for the VMC that are financially sustainable from an operational perspective. Both of these scenarios are predicted to produce modest annual operating profits for a period of 20 to 40 years. These two renovation options succeed in An Equal Opportunity Employer To help ensure equal access to programs, services and activities, the Office of Management & Finance will reasonably modify policies/procedures and provide auxiliary aids/services to persons with disabilities upon request. large part because they retain the facility’s ability to serve its current tenants and users, while offering targeted improvements to attract additional events - in particular more revenue-producing events. As discussed in the report, there appears to be demand in the local market for an updated flexible venue with 3,000-8,000 seats. While expensive, renovating the VMC will cost much less than building a new facility of this size, and is a more environmentally and economically sustainable approach. It’s also worth noting that the estimated cumulative economic impact associated with these options is $2.1 billion over an expected 30-year span for the Tenant/User Enhancements and $3.5 billion for Strategic Market Enhancements over the expected 40-year span. Permanent closure and eventual deconstruction of the VMC should remain on the table. This option would be contentious and challenging to realize and the process of preparing for demolition, developing a redevelopment plan, and finding willing development partners would take several years to organize and would require significant resources. Through it all, the unanswered question remains about what would take the place of the VMC and how it would provide a greater public benefit than renovation of the current facility. One of the challenges in determining the future of the VMC is its relationship to further development in the Rose Quarter and western portion of the Lloyd District. While these two issues are not specifically tied together, it may take a broader solution to reach a conclusion on the VMC. The biggest decision facing the City is this: Should the VMC be preserved as a public spectator facility for the next 20 to 40 years? If so, it is clear that major investments will be needed, and soon. Even without all the answers in hand (funding for example), a clear direction from the Council on the desired future of the VMC would allow the City and its partners to work with purpose on implementation strategies. Deferred maintenance and major needed repairs on the facility have accumulated over the years to a point at which the costs of keeping the facility open will begin to rise rapidly, while revenues generated from the facility are likely to decline. Decisions about near term investments in the facility might be re-prioritized with clarity about the future. If, for example, the facility is to be permanently closed, it doesn’t make sense to invest millions of dollars for ongoing repairs. Unfortunately, as with many challenges of aging infrastructure facing the City, the VMC presents another difficult problem, with no apparent easy solution. This report is intended to help further the conversation by providing new information on the opportunities, challenges, costs, and potential revenues associated with several options, including continuing the status quo operations and a closure/deconstruction option. My staff and I look forward to assisting Council with understanding this information and developing a recommendation for the future of the facility.

  • History of Fairfax City
    HISTORY OF FAIRFAX CITY The City of Fairfax began as the Town of Providence in 1805, a community built around the Fairfax County Courthouse. Completed in 1800 at the corner of Little River Turnpike and Ox Road, the area was a crossroads of conflict during the American Civil War with hardships and disrupted lives for everyone. From a crossroads of conflict, the area became a crossroads of commerce in the late nineteenth century when the dairy industry propelled economic rebirth and the building of schools, churches, homes, barns, and businesses and in 1874 the Town of Providence officially became the Town of Fairfax. The early 20th century ushered in a myriad of technological and transportation changes and the emergence of civic organizations, sports clubs, a Town police unit, and a volunteer fire company. World War II spurred rapid growth across the region in housing, business ventures, and population and Fairfax quickly changed from a rural to a suburban community. The Town of Fairfax deeded a 150-acre tract of land in 1959 to the University of Virginia to establish a permanent home for what is now George Mason University. In 1961, the Town of Fairfax was incorporated as the independent City of Fairfax and in 1962 a new City Hall was completed. Rich in history and heritage, residents and visitors enjoy a small-town atmosphere and an abundance of cultural and recreational pursuits in the midst of a bustling metropolitan area. As the City's first mayor, John C. Wood said in 1962 - "Fairfax has a wonderful past and present and an even greater future." HOW DID THE JULY 4TH CELEBRATION BEGIN IN FAIRFAX CITY? Fairfax City’s Independence Day Parade and Fireworks began in 1967 and was organized by the Delta Alpha Chapter of Beta Sigma Phi Sorority.

The Double Scoop on this Week’s Snack! meet randy sihoTa, root crop vegetable grower... Our family farm, Canadian Farms Produce, is located in the picturesque Fraser Valley where we grow a variety of vegetables—from carrots to pumpkins. The sandier soils of the Fraser Valley are perfect for producing the most flavourful carrot that is the right length, bright orange and clean in appearance. We grow carrots for 3 specific markets: baby Randy Sihota, Canadian Farms Produce peeled carrots, carrots for packaging and jumbo carrots for the food service industry. Our baby carrot varieties (Sweet-Bites and Sugar Snacks) are not actually ‘babies’ but cut and peeled mature carrots. These varieties are stars for their consistent orange colour, uniform length and sweeter flavor. Do growers just plant seeds? That’s just where we start. From mid- March to early July we use precision seeders to plant the tiny, black carrot seeds in rows in our fields. The seeds take 6 to 21 days to germinate and 70 to 100 days to mature fully. We harvest the ripe carrots with machinery which pulls them up by their tops, cuts the tops off, then drops them onto a conveyor leading to a truck. The carrots are then unloaded onto a line where they are hyrdro-cooled, graded and packaged.
