Unfortunately, this has resulted in a city that is nearly impossible to travel throughout the city with non- motorized means of transportation. The configuration of large highways or interstate corridors has created physical barriers and effectively isolated several neighborhoods. The Virginia Beach Trail will provide the means to stitch this city together with this active mobility highway and unite us. The trail will be a paved path that begins at the western city limit, goes through the newly-formed urban core of Town Center and six master planned Strategic Figure 1: Bicycle riders enjoy the existing Norfolk Figure 3: The Thalia Creek Greenway is an existing Growth Areas, all the way to our Resort Avenue Trail, which Phase I would connect to shared-use path with views to Town Center and will Area at the Atlantic Ocean (Figure 2).

  • City of Virginia Beach Comprehensive Plan – It's Our Future: a Choice City
    City of Virginia Beach Comprehensive Plan – It’s Our Future: A Choice City November 20, 2018 1.3 - SUBURBAN AREA INTRODUCTION Much of the area located north of the Green Line possesses a suburban land use pattern, meaning the area primarily consists of low- to medium-density residential land use with commercial retail, office, and service uses interspersed throughout the area. This land use pattern is the result of more than a century of the development of communities created by subdividing all or portions of the farms that defined Princess Anne County (now the City of Virginia Beach) since the 17th century. The earliest subdivisions were established in the late-19th and early-20th centuries, located adjacent to the railroad line that connected the City of Norfolk to the Town of Virginia Beach. Since the automobile was largely a novelty during these years, movement outside of the urban core cities of Norfolk and Portsmouth was either via the railroad or a poorly maintained roadway system using horse and wagon. The railroad line offered developers the opportunity to establish communities outside the urban core of Norfolk for those who desired to choose a lifestyle less intense than that of Norfolk. This trend of creating communities outside the urban core cities occurred not only here, but throughout the United States, and England as well. Eventually, the area outside the core urban cities was designated as being ‘suburban.’ Vestiges of the early suburban communities in Virginia Beach can be seen in the existing street layout of Pembroke, south of Virginia Beach Boulevard, which were established as Euclid Place (1910) and Sunny Brook (1916).

  • To: ​Nextgen Virginia Allies and Supporters From: ​Carter Black
    To: NextGen Virginia Allies and Supporters ​ From: Carter Black, Virginia State Youth Director ​ Date: April 11th, 2019 ​ Re: New Voter File Data Shows Impact of NextGen Virginia on 2018 Midterms ​ NextGen Virginia began organizing young people in the 2017 statewide election, when NextGen registered more than 20,000 young people, organized on 26 campuses, and helped three statewide Democrats take power in Richmond. Young voter (18-35) turnout in 2017 reached 28% -- about 8% higher than in 2013 -- and helped Democrats win 15 seats in the House of Delegates. In 2018, NextGen built upon that 2017 momentum and fortified progressive youth infrastructure in Virginia. Ahead of November, NextGen mobilized young voters to help flip three highly contested Congressional districts from red to blue and overwhelmingly re-elect Senator Tim ​ Kaine. ​ 2014 Turnout 2018 Turnout Percentage Increase 18-35 20% 41% +21 pts All Ages 41% 59% +18 pts While turnout was high across all ages in 2018, the turnout rate of young Virginians increased disproportionately to the general public, propelling Democrats to office up and down the ticket. A historic 41% of young Virginians ​ (18-35) cast a ballot last November -- up 21 points over the state’s young voter turnout rate in 2014. Furthermore, ​ young Virginians were a larger bloc of all voters than in any other midterm year, increasing their vote share from ​ 8% in ‘14 to 13% in ‘18. According to Catalist, the increase in the youth vote largely favored Democrats. ​ ​ ​ Democrats won both white and non-white young voters by considerable margins -- winning young Virginians of color by an incredible 73 points and white young Virginians by 14 points.

  • 1 the Principi Group Florida Monthly Advocacy Report for the Period
    The Principi Group Florida Monthly Advocacy Report For the period January 1-31, 2019 Functional Area: (Congressional Review) 1. Washington Insights Biggest story out of Washington, DC is the end of the 35-day partial government shutdown and start of 21-day negotiation period on the contentious border security debate. Deadline for resolution is February 15th. The shutdown did not directly affect defense spending, but the precedent and lack of cooperation between parties has many concerned for implications for the next two years. More directly, the emergency spending disaster relief which is very much needed for Florida is a hostage to the current dysfunctionality between congress and the administration. Things to watch for in coming weeks include how the President does in the February 5th State of the Union, the rollout of the 2020 President’s Federal Budget Request (unscheduled), and progress on emergency spending for recent natural disasters and raising the national debt ceiling. Over at the Pentagon The new year brings new leadership. Defense Secretary Jim Mattis is out after two years. Deputy Defense Secretary Patrick Shanahan, a former Boeing executive, is in as acting Defense secretary. At first, President Donald Trump promised to name a permanent replacement "shortly," but has since suggested Shanahan may serve for a "long time." Among the other leading contenders for the top post: Air Force Secretary Heather Wilson. David Norquist, who has served as Pentagon comptroller since May 2017, is the department’s acting deputy defense secretary and assumes Shanahan’s former duties. As DOD’s chief financial officer, Norquist most recently led the department’s first comprehensive audit.

  • Veterans Elected in the Midterms 2018
    Veterans Elected In the Mid-Terms to Congress As of 16 November 2018, here are the veterans from all services who were just recently elected or re- elected to Congress. This may not be completely accurate since some races are too close to call. However, having said that if one or more of these Members of Congress are in your AOR, I request that you pass this along to our membership so that they can reach out to the newly elected veterans to put our Marine Corps League on the radar and to establish a constituent relationship. We also need to reaffirm our relationships with the incumbents as 2019 is going to be a busy legislative time with some new political dynamics. Note that there are 11 Marines in the new Congress. Here’s the list divided up between those who ran as Republicans and Democrats: Republicans 1. Rep. Don Young (R-Alaska) Branch: Army 2. Rep. Rick Crawford (R-Ariz.) Branch: Army 3. Rep. Steve Womack (R-Ariz.) Branch: Army National Guard 4. Rep. Paul Cook (R-Calif.) Branch: Marine Corps 5. Rep. Duncan Hunter (R-Calif.) Branch: Marine Corps 6. Rep. Neal Dunn (R-Fla.) Branch: Army 7.
