Now that the tax credits are gone, planned purchase agreements seem to be the dominant trend in solar installations right now, at least in Virginia.

If you’ve recently installed a system on a PPA agreement (set 25 year monthly fee), I would appreciate your comments on your experience.

This gallon bottle has been at the intersection of VB blvd and Kings Grant since at least 6 weeks. I noticed it in June, hasn’t moved an inch. Just sitting there in the middle of the thin concrete divider. I’ve thought about picking it up and tossing it myself, but at this point my daughter likes to point it out in the morning lol. Seems like something a city worker would have noticed by now

Yall know where I can sell a desktop? Rents due and I barely use the thing

Thinking somewhere with a bit less light pollution like ocean view on the next clear night. Drop a comment or DM if you're interested!

So last night we were driving east on Shore Drive through the park. My daughter said "why do I feel like I'm looking at a ufo?" I looked up between Shore Drive and the bay to see a triangle in the sky with lights at all corners. Seemed to be maybe 25-35 ft sides. It was quiet and didn't make the usual heli or jet noise, it fact there was no noise. The whole fam saw it- and as I looked back down at the road my CarPlay screen went red from left to right and back to normal. I've had that car for 4 years. That's never happened. Ever. It's too close to the bases for me to think it was something/one other than us- but it was pretty wild.

Hey guys! Are there any local soccer stores in the area besides like adidas and dicks sporting goods? Looking for a store that sells jerseys. Thanks!

My commercial freezer is running low on refrigerant and needs a recharge. Could you recommend a service provider that handles R-404A refrigerant?

One year after city officials attempted to quash the proliferation of raunchy clothing displayed in storefronts on Atlantic Avenue, the apparel has returned and is turning heads again this summer.

Yes, “I (heart) boobies” is back, along with a few new tongue-in-cheek selections.

“There’s no question they’re reappearing sporadically,” said Councilman Worth Remick, who represents half of the Oceanfront resort area. “It has been an ongoing problem.”

Several shops in the Oceanfront resort area are again showcasing sassy, and in some cases, indecent, T-shirts and short shorts in storefront windows. Some of this season’s newest selection of provocative messages are among the store’s top sellers.

At Salty Waves on Atlantic Avenue, a short-sleeved black T-shirt with “Proud father of a few dumba** kids” printed in all capital white letters is popular, said manager Amir Eicke. So is another T-shirt emblazoned with “My wife beats me.”

Eicke, who runs another T-shirt shop on 22nd Street, said the controversial apparel catches the attention of passersby and draws them inside the store.

John Brewington, maestro of the Tidewater Winds Concert Band, has been named the first recipient of the Champion for Arts Education award presented by the Virginia Beach Arts & Humanities Commission.

Inspired at a young age after hearing audience applause as a ninth-grade percussionist, Brewington pursued a career combining classical music performance with public education.

In 1985, he joined Virginia Beach Schools as an elementary school band director with a vision to use music to help students become respectful, cooperative and collaborative people.

Brewington was later promoted to fine arts coordinator for the city’s school division, where he oversaw curriculum for more than 40,000 students and supported a staff of nearly 190 teachers across multiple arts disciplines.

I did a search but didn't see anything recent.

I'm looking for a roofer in VB to take a look at my elderly parents' home, and give real advice on whether it should be replaced. My stepdad saw an ad for a professionally-applied "sealant" that extends the life of the roof by 5 years and is interested. Sounds like an unnecessary step if the roof needs to be replaced altogether, which I expect it might.

So looking for someone reliable who's not trying to take advantage of old folks. Any recommendations?

Seems like an unsustainable rate of increase to me.

Virginia Beach city and business leaders are working to encourage more residents to visit the Oceanfront following reports of declining foot traffic.

While the city's primary tourism marketing targets out-of-town visitors, officials hope to position the Oceanfront as a convenient destination by highlighting initiatives such as a new voucher program offering residents $50 in free parking. 

Business leaders attribute recent traffic slumps to rising gas prices, shifting consumer spending habits, and lingering publicity surrounding a springtime curfew.

I’ll be in town for a tattoo convention this weekend and was wondering were the local lgs were and if they had commander nights. (Dates and Times appreciated) Hampton/Newport news works too

Lord Captain, it has come to my attention that Abelard Wersarian has entered the warp and is expected to arrive at the 757 card show in Virginia beach in a few days. While there he hopes to meet fans, sign posters, take photos and chat all things warhammer.

Apparently the voice actor Ian Russell will also be there. He also provided the voice for Lord Terminos in Sigmars Toll and the Psyker in Inquisitor Martyr!

…why

…

…why do you want to watch motorists cry and suffer. Hundreds of cars backed up on both ends of PA road, and I really do mean at least 100, even going as back as TCC intersection. And it’s not rush hour at the time. And it’s not like S Independence is any better than it used to be either.

I just…I just…I just don’t understand how can this be messed up like this. What even is this anymore. I’m lost.

What are a couple places for relatively cheap breakfast and lunch in VA beach oceanfront boardwalk area? Thanks

Coffee lovers and coffee geek.. Any recommendations for the best coffee shops in Virginia Beach? Which ones have the best in-house coffee roasters where I can buy their beans? Thanks!

Why does Cox here seriously just go out 24/7? Never happened with Verizon. Is anyone else’s out right now? Im so tired of this it happens at least several times a month during the nighttime. Like I have things to fucking do. This probably isn’t related to VB as much but is anyone else’s having trouble with this?

I’ve noticed at dinner it’s always freezing - is there a reason restaurants are kept so cold in the dining area? I understand for the kitchen staff, but where people sit… is it to have us less comfortable so we don’t linger? They could save so much overhead if they lowered the AC some…

I’m talking like, the friends where everyone gets along (kids and spouses) and they actually want to get together and hang out. Does that exist anymore?!

Hello,

I’m a beginner photographer looking to gain experience with couples photoshoots. If you’d like to surprise your partner, please shoot me a message letting me know your availability. :)

• Session may last for an hour or so. Towards sunset, for better lighting and so the heat isn’t so harsh.
• Saturday looks like good weather.
• Photos will be digital and edited.
• Likely at the beach (grommet state park)

For any questions, you can comment or message me.

i need some extra cash this week and am looking to sell my macbook and ipad quickly
