  • Virginia Beach Update: Infrastructure Funding, Crime Concerns, and Community Initiatives

    Virginia Beach Update: Infrastructure Funding, Crime Concerns, and Community Initiatives
    2025/04/22
    Good morning, this is Virginia Beach Local Pulse for Tuesday, April 22, 2025.

    We begin today with breaking news out of city hall. The state has just released a major six-year, seven-billion-dollar funding plan for capital improvement projects across Virginia. This is expected to have a big impact here in Virginia Beach, with anticipated upgrades to infrastructure, schools, and public spaces. We’ll keep a close eye on how these funds will be allocated locally, but early word is that transportation and school facility projects are in the spotlight.

    On the public safety front, Virginia Beach police are increasing their presence at the Oceanfront after a weekend shooting near 17th Street. Fortunately, no one was hurt, and police quickly arrested a suspect, Xavier Gatling of Georgia. Authorities say more patrols, including officers on foot and motorcycles, will be out as the crowds build along Atlantic Avenue in the warmer months. Just a reminder: police tech like FLOCK cameras and ShotSpotter is now in use to help keep the area safe, and local businesses insist they’re open and resilient.

    However, there’s concern after three separate shootings in the city on Monday, leaving six people injured. Incidents occurred on Budding Avenue, Sassafras Court, and other neighborhoods, including a teen and two men caught in crossfire during a robbery. Police stress that a lot of crime guns are stolen from unlocked cars—a reminder for all of us to secure our vehicles and report suspicious activity. Officers say more than 40 cars were broken into recently, with three guns stolen just last week. Public conversations around safe storage are growing, with advocacy groups pushing for tighter laws and community education.

    Shifting gears, the weather is looking much improved for today. After yesterday’s rain, we’ll see partly sunny skies, highs in the mid-60s, and a gentle breeze—perfect for an afternoon stroll at Mount Trashmore Park or a visit to the boardwalk. The rest of the week should bring more spring sunshine and rising temps.

    If you’re hunting for a new opportunity, Virginia Beach remains steady in job growth, especially in hospitality and seasonal work as businesses gear up for a busy summer. Real estate inventory is holding steady, with homes averaging about thirty-five days on market. If you’re buying or selling near Great Neck or Little Neck, expect plenty of competition.

    Business buzz includes a handful of new restaurants opening along Shore Drive and the long-awaited expansion at Town Center’s east end. We also note a few small shops closing up over on Bonney Road, as high rents continue to shape our commercial corridors.

    Looking for some fun? Tonight at Virginia Legends Park, you can join the Secret Society Mystery Hunt, a family-friendly event that has everyone puzzling their way through local landmarks. And for our music lovers, the Spring Concert Series kicks off this weekend at Neptune Park.

    On the school front, Bayside High’s robotics team just advanced to the state finals, earning high marks for innovation and teamwork. In sports, Cox High baseball swept Kellam in last night’s close game, keeping their playoff hopes alive.

    We end today with a feel-good story. Volunteers from the community joined up over at First Landing State Park this weekend for a beach cleanup, collecting nearly five hundred pounds of trash. It’s a small reminder of the big impact we can make when we work together.

    This has been Virginia Beach Local Pulse. We’ll see you tomorrow with more local updates.

  • Virginia Beach Happenings: Community Events, Crime, and Civic Pride

    Virginia Beach Happenings: Community Events, Crime, and Civic Pride
    2025/04/19
    Good morning, this is Virginia Beach Local Pulse for Saturday, April nineteenth, twenty twenty-five.

    Let’s start with our top story—community spirit is front and center today as the Virginia Beach Sheriff’s Office hosts its annual Easter Eggstravaganza at the Little League Complex on Firefall Drive. From noon to two, families with kids twelve and under can hunt for thousands of eggs and enjoy games, a K9 demonstration, and plenty of treats. This year, the event partners with the National Organization of Black Law Enforcement Executives, a move that strengthens the bonds between law enforcement and the broader community. Bring your own basket and hope for dry skies—the event goes on with light rain but will be canceled in case of a downpour.

    Looking at the weather, we’re in for a warming trend today, but it will cool off again tomorrow for Easter Sunday. Any outdoor plans this afternoon—including egg hunts and spring festivals—should go smoothly, but keep an umbrella handy just in case.

    In breaking news, Virginia Beach police are investigating a series of shootings that left six people hurt across three incidents in the city this week. The first happened early Monday morning on South Budding Avenue where a seventeen-year-old boy was seriously injured. Monday evening, two men were shot on Sassafras Court during a robbery gone wrong. Later, another incident on Haygood Road left three more people hurt, with one in serious condition. Police say stolen firearms from recent car break-ins may be a factor. The department urges everyone to lock their cars and store firearms securely, especially in neighborhoods impacted by these break-ins.

    On the business front, drivers are getting some relief at the pump. Gas prices in Virginia Beach have dropped about five cents since last week, a welcome sign as spring break traffic winds down and we head into summer.

    Springtime also means a packed community calendar. Beside today’s Easter Extravaganza, families can head to the Oceanfront for live music as concert season ramps up at the Sandler Center and Veterans United Home Loans Amphitheater. From major festivals like the Something in the Water Music Festival to weekly live performances, there’s no shortage of ways to enjoy Virginia Beach’s vibrant arts scene.

    Turning to real estate, the local market remains steady, with home prices holding strong and inventory slowly ticking up. The job market is steady as well, with several new openings posted this week in hospitality and retail ahead of summer.

    In our schools, students from Princess Anne High School made headlines with their robotics team advancing to the state finals, and Ocean Lakes High wrapped up a winning season in girls’ soccer.

    We end on a feel-good note—this week, city workers and volunteers joined forces to clean up Mount Trashmore Park, collecting hundreds of pounds of litter and showing just how much we care for our green spaces.

  • "Shootings, Weather, Jobs, and Community Connections in Virginia Beach"

    "Shootings, Weather, Jobs, and Community Connections in Virginia Beach"
    2025/04/17
    Good morning, this is Virginia Beach Local Pulse for Thursday, April 17, 2025.

    We wake up today with big stories shaping our morning here at the coast. Virginia Beach Police are investigating a concerning string of shootings that left six people injured in less than 24 hours earlier this week. On South Budding Avenue, a 17-year-old boy was seriously hurt. Then, later that night on Sassafras Court, two men were shot during a robbery attempt while one of them was simply taking out the trash. Police say in the same neighborhoods, nearly forty cars were broken into days before, and three firearms were stolen. Chief Neudigate is urging all of us to lock our vehicles and secure our weapons as more than ten percent of local car break-ins lead to stolen guns. The message is clear: we all play a part in keeping our neighborhoods safe, especially when it comes to responsible gun storage and reporting suspicious activity. Mounted patrols are still visible in the affected areas, and increased vigilance is expected through the week. In other crime news, there are ongoing investigations on Haygood Road after three people were injured in a separate incident, and police continue to look into property damage reports near Bonney Road.

    On a lighter note, let’s talk weather. We’ve got a cool and breezy start this morning with temperatures just cresting fifty, but expect highs around sixty-five by midday. Cloud cover should part for a little afternoon sun, making it much more pleasant for any outdoor plans. It’s a good day to visit the oceanfront or stroll Town Center, but keep a jacket handy as we could see wind gusts up to twenty miles an hour. Looking ahead, we’re tracking drier, warmer weather for the weekend.

    Shifting to local business, the job market remains resilient. Recent numbers show job postings in hospitality and healthcare are up, with over a thousand open positions citywide. The energy around the real estate market is also holding steady, with new listings outpacing closings by nearly twenty percent. For those in real estate or looking to break in, there’s an event this morning at The Westin Town Center on Commerce Street. The Glover U team is in town offering the latest strategies for taking listings and mastering online reputation.

    On the cultural front, tonight we’re treated to a performance of Swan Lake by the Grand Kyiv Ballet at the Sandler Center for the Performing Arts. Tickets are moving fast for this elegant production, so if you want to experience a classic right here on the coast, now is the time.

    For sports, our homegrown talent is making headlines. The Dallas Wings just drafted James Quinerly in the WNBA Draft, shining a spotlight on the 757. Princess Anne Country Club is also buzzing with excitement after sending a golfer to compete at the Masters.

    In school news, Bayside High’s robotics team just clinched first in the state qualifier, a proud moment for students and mentors alike.

    And to close things out with a feel-good story, Sentara Virginia Beach General Hospital’s therapy dog continues to bring comfort to patients and staff. His “paw-sitive” legacy is a simple reminder of the small joys that bind our community.
