FOURTH PRECINCT RIBBON CUTTING CELEBRATED ON DEC. 11 On
Wednesday, Dec. 11, I was pleased to join City officials and
members of our community to celebrate the official grand opening of
the new 4th Police Precinct, located on Lobaugh Drive in the
Kempsville area. It is directly behind the former precinct building
and serves people in the southwest section of our city.
Mayor Bobby Dyer, Vice Mayor Jim Wood, Council Member Jessica
Abbott, Deputy City, Manager Steve Cover Police Chief Jim Cervera,
Deputy Chief Patrick Gallagher, Precinct Captain Todd Jones and
Matt Astrin (architect) helped us officially open this great new
space. The new 19,000 square feet will be staffed by 120 sworn and
civilian personnel. Construction began in 2015 and was completed in
mid-November at a cost of $8.9 million. The building includes a
state-of-the-art training room that can serve as an Emergency
Operations Center. There will be a public safety themed
neighborhood park adjacent to the precinct and a veteran’s memorial
on the property. The staff of the 4th Precinct greatly appreciate
the new facility.

SEVEN FIREFIGHTERS GRADUATE It typically takes about six months
to complete the Virginia Beach Fire Academy (VBFA), but just after
a little over two months, the seven members of VBFA Class 3
graduated last week. This was an abbreviated academy because this
class consisted entirely of certified firefighters, coming from
other fire departments in Virginia as well as a few from out of
state. Although these recruits had prior experience, both their
operational and emergency medical skill levels were tested
extensively. These recruits are now probationary firefighters and
must complete a probationary period before they can exchange their
red helmets for the yellow helmets worn by their fellow
firefighters in the field.
VHRC HOLDS COMMUNITY CONVERSATION ON HUMAN RIGHTS DAY On Dec.
10, in honor of Human Rights Day, the Virginia Beach Human Rights
Commission (VBHRC), in partnership with the Virginia Museum of
Contemporary Art (MOCA), held a Community Conversation: "Human
Rights & Mental Health." WVEC 13News Now anchor Janet Roach
shared her
personal story of advocacy for those with mental health issues
and previewed her documentary film, "Looking for Happiness," which
chronicles the challenges families face while navigating the mental
health care system. A panel of experts, including representatives
from the City’s police department, Public Defender’s Office, the
Department of Human Services and the National Alliance on Mental
Illness (NAMI) of Coastal Virginia, discussed their work protecting
the rights of individuals with mental health conditions and
answered questions from the more than 100 attendees. Mental health
professionals from a variety of local agencies including the
Department of Human Services Behavioral Health division and the VB
Strong Center, were on hand providing information on mental health
resources for those seeking assistance. The next Community
Conversation will focus on race and is set for Tuesday, March 31,
2020 at Virginia MOCA.

President, CEO, Virginia Aquarium
At work: I am president and CEO of the Virginia Aquarium and the
executive director ofthe Virginia Aquarium Foundation. I manage and
provide support to a team of staff andvolunteers that run the most
visited cultural attraction in the state, and the onlyorganization
in Virginia that facilitates the research, rescue and
rehabilitation of all seaturtles and marine mammals that strand
along Virginia’s coastline.
Home and family: I am from upstate New York and married my
college sweetheart,Christopher Spanoulis. While my parents still
live in New York, I’m happy to call VirginiaBeach home.
Volunteer activities: I enjoy spending time helping the aquarium
with special eventsand furthering its mission. I am also a member
of the Lynnhaven Parish Chapter of theDaughters of the American
Revolution.
Motivating factor: The past half century has brought many
negative changes to thehealth of our environment. It is my goal
each day to inspire people to act on behalf of ourenvironment,
ocean and the future of our animals, and be part of the bigger
solution tothe environmental crisis our world is facing.
Advice for women in business: Be supportive of other women.
Women tend to wantto compete with one another; collaborate rather
than compete! There is a boys’ clubmentality in the world, and
women can overcome this together.
Professional goal in five years: I expect to still be running
one of the most successfulaquariums in the United States,
continuing to encourage environmental activism at thefederal,
state, local and personal levels.
The one thing I’d change about Hampton Roads: Having regional
leadersrecognize you can’t have a community that easily attracts
and retains employees andemployers without strong cultural
attractions. This focus and support is key if we want toattract and
retain quality companies and talent.
Region’s biggest asset: Well of course, the Virginia Aquarium
& Marine ScienceCenter! The aquarium adds $260 million to the
regional economy each year, making it animmense asset.
Downtime: I love British TV mystery shows and spending time with
my wonderfulhusband and two adorable cats, Moo Shu and
Chopstick.
What really gets under my skin: The biggest challenge we face is
apathy aboutindividual impact on the environment. One straw, one
plastic bag, one reusable bottle,they all make a difference. Add
those individuals together and we can create amovement!
