  • Virginia Beach Local Pulse: Voting Changes, Tech Boom, and Community Celebrations
    2025/03/08
    Good morning, this is Virginia Beach Local Pulse for March 8, 2025.

    We're starting off with some breaking news from earlier this week. On Sunday, a fatal crash occurred on Virginia Beach Boulevard. Theodore Ford Jr., a 36-year-old Norfolk resident, was pronounced dead at the scene. The Virginia Beach Police Department is still investigating the incident and asking anyone with information to come forward.

    In city hall news, there's been a significant development regarding our voting system. The City Council recently voted to halt the implementation of the 10-1 voting system for 2025, despite 81% of residents supporting it. This decision will impact how our council members are elected in the future.

    On a brighter note, our local tech scene is booming. The cybersecurity job market in Virginia Beach is projected to grow by 33.4% by the end of this year. Major employers like Booz Allen Hamilton and Lockheed Martin are actively seeking talent, with entry-level salaries starting around $78,000. This is great news for anyone looking to start a career in tech.

    Speaking of careers, we're excited to announce that the Virginia National Guard Association is hosting a networking event tonight at New Realm Brewing Co. on Craft Lane. It's a great opportunity for members to connect with others in the region.

    In community news, we're celebrating Read Across America today and tomorrow. The City of Virginia Beach is joining the National Education Association for this event, encouraging everyone to pick up a book and share the joy of reading.

    Looking ahead to the weekend, we've got some great events coming up. The Virginia Beach Fire Academy is holding a graduation ceremony for Classes 16 and 17 on Friday. It's a proud moment for our community as we welcome new firefighters to our ranks.

    On the weather front, we're expecting a few showers today, so don't forget your umbrella if you're heading out. Sunday's looking cooler, so plan accordingly for any outdoor activities.

    In sports news, our local high school teams have been crushing it lately. While we don't have any specific results to share today, we're always proud of our student-athletes and their dedication.

    Lastly, we want to highlight a heartwarming story from our community. A local breast cancer survivor is urging Governor Youngkin to sign a bipartisan bill. Her advocacy is a testament to the strength and resilience of our Virginia Beach residents.

    We're starting with breaking news from earlier this week. A fatal crash occurred on Virginia Beach Boulevard in the early hours of March 2nd. Theodore Ford Jr., a 36-year-old Norfolk resident, was pronounced dead at the scene. The Virginia Beach Police Department's Traffic Safety Unit is investigating the incident and urges anyone with information to come forward.

    In city developments, Virginia Beach has given the green light to install speed cameras in school zones. This decision, made on March 4th, aligns our city with five other Hampton Roads localities that have implemented similar measures. The move aims to enhance safety for students and pedestrians in these areas.

    On a brighter note, we're excited about the upcoming Read Across America celebration. The City of Virginia Beach is joining the National Education Association for this event on March 7th and 8th. It's a great opportunity for our community to come together and promote literacy.

    Looking ahead to this weekend, the AAU Track & Field Indoor National Championship kicks off today at the Virginia Beach Sports Center. The event runs through March 9th and promises to showcase some of the best young athletic talent in the country.

    In business news, we're seeing continued growth in the Town Center area. While Legal Sea Foods has closed its doors, Armada Hoffler, the property manager, is actively seeking a new tenant. There's also buzz about a potential Trader Joe's coming to the former Bed Bath & Beyond site, which could be operational by 2026.

    For sports enthusiasts, we're proud to report that three TCU Horned Frogs have qualified for the NCAA Division I Track and Field Indoor Championships. The event will be held right here in Virginia Beach at the Sports Center on March 14th and 15th.

    In real estate, the Virginia Guesthouse in Charlottesville is set to open this fall, replacing the previous Cavalier Inn. While not in Virginia Beach, it's an exciting development for our state's hospitality industry.

    On the culinary front, our city welcomes Victoria's Pizza, a new pizzeria focusing on homegrown, organic ingredients. It's a great addition to our local food scene.

    Weather-wise, we're looking at a mild day with temperatures in the mid-60s. It's perfect for outdoor activities, so consider checking out one of our beautiful parks or beaches.

    Lastly, in public safety news, the police department continues to investigate recent incidents. They remind residents to stay vigilant and report any suspicious activities.

    2025/03/06
    Good morning, this is Virginia Beach Local Pulse for March 6, 2025.

    We're starting with some somber news today. Our community is mourning the loss of two Virginia Beach police officers who were tragically killed in the line of duty last Friday. Officers Christopher Reese and Cameron Girvin were shot during a traffic stop on South Rosemont Road. The suspect, John McCoy III, was later found deceased. Our hearts go out to the families of these brave officers and the entire VBPD. A memorial has been set up at the Fourth Precinct for those wishing to pay their respects.

    In city developments, the much-anticipated Atlantic Park and The Dome are set to open this spring. Backed by Virginia Beach native Pharrell Williams, the project features a 2.6-acre surf lagoon and an entertainment venue that can host up to 5,000 guests. This is expected to cement our city's reputation as the East Coast's surfing capital and boost our local economy.

    On the job front, Virginia Beach's tech scene is booming. Companies like AMP Robotics and PRA Group are leading the charge in AI, fintech, and healthtech. With over 250 tech companies creating more than 8,000 jobs, our city is becoming a prime destination for tech professionals. Entry-level cybersecurity positions are starting around $78,000, with experienced pros making up to $100,000 annually.

    In real estate news, the average home price in Virginia Beach has risen to $425,000, reflecting our city's growing appeal. The Oceanfront area continues to be a hotspot, with new luxury condos being developed along Atlantic Avenue.

    For sports fans, we've got some exciting news. George Mason University's Women's Indoor Track and Field team has been crowned the Atlantic 10 Champions at our very own Virginia Beach Sports Center. The men's team placed second, showcasing the talent in our local athletic scene.

    Looking ahead to this weekend, don't forget about the Cherry Blossom Festival at Red Wing Park. It's a beautiful celebration of our sister city relationship with Miyazaki, Japan, featuring traditional performances and cuisine.

    Weather-wise, we're looking at a partly cloudy day with highs around 65°F. Perfect for a stroll on the boardwalk or checking out the new murals in the ViBe Creative District.

    In public safety news, the VBPD is reminding residents to be vigilant following a series of car break-ins near Town Center. Remember to lock your vehicles and don't leave valuables in plain sight.
