City Manager’s Update

Just 12-inch

deep floodwaters can stall your vehicle

and potentially cause it to float away.

Don’t risk it.

Virginia’s

Emergency Contact Program allows you

to store emergency contact information

giving law enforcement a way to notify

family or friends in the event of a serious

crash or other emergency that leaves you incapacitated.

You can let friends and family know you are safe after a disaster by registering

yourself as “Safe and Well” with the Red Cross or via Facebook’s Safety Check. Facebook

will activate Safety Check if you’re in the area of a disaster and send you a notification

asking if you’re safe. When you get the notification, simply click it and choose “I’m Safe.”

Facebook will then create a post marking you safe in the area. If you don’t get the automatic

notification, you can open the Safety Check here.

Virginia Beach 3-1-1 is now available 24 hours a day, seven days a

week including holidays. Operators are available to answer questions and provide

information about city services.

Before a major storm, whether you are staying or chose to evacuate, it is a good

idea to purchase a portable hard drive and upload scans of important documents such as birth

certificates, social security cards, house and car deeds, passports and insurance documents. If

you’re unable to do that, at least try to take photos of these documents with your mobile

phone.

VIRGINIA BEACH FIREFIGHTERS HELP HURRICANE VICTIMS SAN JUAN, PUERTO RICO Virginia Task Force 2 (VA-TF2) FEMA Urban Search and Rescue Team deployed to San Juan, Puerto Rico Tuesday ahead of Hurricane Irma. The 45 members of this deployment are part of a regional FEMA team, one of 28 Urban Search and Rescue Teams located across the nation. The Virginia Beach Fire Department is the sponsoring agency for VA-TF2 and in addition to the VBFD, firefighters from seven other regional fire departments as well as a doctor and canine handlers make up the team. Combined, the task force members specialize in heavy/technical rescue, HAZMAT, water rescue, structural collapse, and all aspects of search and rescue operations. The VA-TF2 team that deployed to San Juan is now being relocated to St. Thomas in the U.S. Virgin Islands where they have already begun targeted searches. KATY, TEXAS At about the same time the team was setting up in San Juan, another contingent of VA-TF2 was returning from a deployment in Katy, Texas, where Hurricane Harvey dumped more than 51 inches of rain. VA-TF2 conducted about 500 rescues of residents trapped in their homes by the flood waters. The 14-member team of firefighters from across Hampton Roads used boats to go door-to-door and bring trapped residents (many of whom were without food, water and electricity) to the safety of higher ground. NACOGDOCHES, TEXAS Several members of the VBFD also deployed to Nacogdoches, Texas with the Hampton Roads Incident Management Team (HRIMT) to assist that community with managing shelters for evacuees from Houston that were affected by Hurricane Harvey. The HRIMT is based with the Chesapeake Fire Department and consists of members from 11 Hampton Roads localities .

VBFD MARINE TEAM HELPS WITH CITY AND COMMUNITY WATER EVENTS

This summer, the Virginia Beach Fire Department Marine Team assisted with several community events, including the Wave Warrior Surf Camp, and Parks and Recreation’s Therapeutic Recreation Camp.

In addition to those two camps, Marine Team members lent a hand to Parks and Rec’s Therapeutic Recreation Camp, which included open-water swim days and a surf camp at Croatan. The crews who attended these events spoke about how meaningful it was to be there and have even signed up to volunteer next year on their days off.

COURSE CHANGE FOR 2018 SHAMROCK MARATHON PROVIDES BENEFIT TO EVERYONE

HRT IMPLEMENTING NEXT PHASE OF TRANSIT FARE INCREASE

Hampton Roads Transit will implement the next phase of fare increase for all modes of transit effective Sunday, Oct. 1. From the discussion and comments received from the public hearings in February and March 2014, HRT decided to phase the rollout of the new fare increase in two parts

instead of all at once. The first included a $.25 increase in the one-way fare, rather than the proposed $.50. Other fares were adjusted to half of the initially proposed increase and no increase at the time for Paratransit. The Oct. 1 fare increase completes the adopted fare increase and fares will be evaluated every other year after that. For more information, visit www.gohrt.com.
