•Va. Beach proposed city budget
VIRGINIA BEACH -- City staff members presented a recommended FY2012-2013 budget at the city council meeting Tuesday night..
Included in that is an increase in the real estate tax rate. Currently set at 89 cents per $100 of assessed home value, the rate would bump up to 93 cents per $100 of assessed home value.
Estimated to bring in $19 million, Virginia Beach and Virginia Beach City Public Schools would split the extra revenue evenly.
It is one way to offset an expected shortfall within the city. Other steps include using money from some fund balances, including the city's general fund.
The proposed budget funds the entire $356 million dollars originally requested by the Virginia Beach School Board. It also covers more than half the additional $36.3 million the board requested to address the school division's own budget gap.
City council and school board members meet next week to discuss possible ways to get more money for VBCPS. Recently, Mayor Will Sessoms mentioned a possible increase in taxes (referring to others besides the real estate rate). During the council meeting Tuesday, he stated that certainly is something everyone hopes to avoid, but he said the school board's chairman and vice chairman support an increase if deemed necessary.
Public hearings about the budget are scheduled for April 18 and 24.
Council probably would vote on a budget May 8.

16 Virginia Beach Condos in State's Tallest Building Going to Auction
The remaining 16 condominiums at The Residences at the Westin Virginia Beach Town Center will be auctioned this November, according to property development company Armada Hoffler. Real estate auctioneers Accelerated Marketing Partners will oversee the auctioning of the luxury properties. The 16 single-family residences, including three penthouses, eight two-bedroom and five one-bedroom units, are in the tallest tower in the state of Virginia.
One-bedroom floor plans range from 780 up to 1,455 square feet; and the two-bedroom condos have 1,607 to 2,458 square feet of living space. One of the penthouses, which range in space from 2,207 up to 2,739 square feet, had a most recent asking price of $1.7 million. The minimum bid amount for the penthouse units is $640,000 to $795,000.
With 103 of the 119 units already sold, why an auction to sell the remaining 16 units available on the market? "After much consideration, we have decided that a developer close-out sale is the best way to maximize the value of the remaining inventory as well as the investment of the existing homeowners," said Lou Haddad, CEO and president of Armada Hoffler.
"The Residences at the Westin Virginia Beach Town Center is an integral part of the Virginia Beach Town Center, which continues to thrive as a major destination for cultural, entertainment, shopping and dining experiences in the Mid-Atlantic region. When sales began in 2007 for The Residences at the Westin Virginia Beach Town Center, we quickly sold out more than two-thirds of the homes."
The mixed-use luxury property is located on the top 21 floors of Virginia's tallest building, which rises more than 500 feet over the Virginia Beach Town Center. There are 119 deluxe condominiums in the building. Owners of condominiums have full access to the resort's amenities. The auction takes place at the Westin Virginia Beach Town Center on November 13, 2011. For more information, visit TownCenterAuction.com.
