Before filing application for approval of a plat, t e subdivider m y@@nfer with the planninq department and such other agencies of the City as he or the department deems advisable con- cerning the general proposal. Such action does not require formal appli- cation, fees, or filing of a plat, and is not to be construed as applica- tion for approval of a plat in computing time limitations in relation thereto. 3.2 Procedure for Conditional Preliminary Plat Approval (a) The subdivider shall cause to be prepared a preliminary plat with 2 other material required as set forth in Section 6, and shall submit 7 COPies thereof to the Planning department for processing and referral to affected agencies, together with an application for aPI)roval and such fee as is established by city council in relation t'o'processing subdivision plats. Time limitations in relation to such processing shall begin as of date of receipt of the preliminary plat, applica- tion and fee as indicated on such documents when they are received bY the planning department. (b) After the preliminary plat and related material has been submitted it shall be reviewed by the planning department and other affected agencies of the city for conformity to this ordinance and other applicable regulations, and negotiations niade with the subdivider as to changes deemed advisable and the kind and extent of improvements to be made by him.

(c) The action of the planning department shall be noted on all copies of the preliminary plat to be retained in the record, referenced and attached to any clianges or conditions determined. one such copy shall be returned to the subdivider, and others retained as required for records or further action of the department or other affected agencies of the City. (d) Conditional approval of a preliminary plat shall not constitute approval of the final plat, but shall be deemed an expression of approval of the layout submitted on the preliminary plat and other matters determined in connection therewl th which shall serve as a guide in preparation of the final plat to be submitted for final approval and for recording upon fulfillment of the requirements of this ordinance and the conditions of the conditional approval, if any. Such approval of the preliminary plat shall be valid for a period of 180 days and may be extended by the planning department. Unless the final plat is submitted within 180 days or such extended period as may be allowed, the conditional approval shall be void. 3.3 Pr oval of Final Plat (a) The final plat and other exhibits required for approval shall be pre- pared as specified in Section 6 and submitted to the planning depart- ment within the time limit specified in the conditional approval of the preliminary plat, or such extension as may be granted by the department. Where provision has been made for staged development in connection with conditional approval of the preliminary plat, includ- ing time limitations, the subdivider ma'y submit a final plat for only that portion of the approved preliminary plat which he proposes to 3 record and develop at the time,,if such portion conforms to all require- mnts of these regulations. (b) The final plat shall be submitted for approval on an approved durable tracing medium and copies required for city processing will be prepared by the City, with the original tracing returned to the subdivider or his agent.

Approval shall be in the form provided in Section 6. Disapproval shall include written reasons therefor. In the event that action is not taken within 60 days, recourse shall be as provided by law. (d) Approval of the final plat shall be void: (1) Unless the approved plat is recorded in the office of the clerk of the circuit court of the City within 1 year from the date of approval.

(b) Where not indicated in the comprehensive plan, arrangement of streets in a subdivision shall either: (1) Provide for continuation or appropriate projection of existing arterlial or collector streets in surrounding areas; or 4 (2) Where topography or other conditions make continuance or pro- jection of existing streets unnecessary or impracticable shall conform to a general area plan approved by the planning commis- sion. (c) Minor streets in residential neigliboi-hoods shall be so laid out that their use by through traffic will be discouraged. (d) Where subdivision abuts or contains an existing or proposed arterial street or other streets carrying heavy traffic, the planning depart- ment may require marginal @ccess streets, reversed frontage with screen planting contained in a non-access reservation along the rear property line, deep lots with rear service alleys, or such other treatment, includir@g wider pavement widths, as may be necessary for adequate protection of residential or other properties and separation of local and through traffic, (e) Where a subdivision borders or contains a railroad or Timited access highway right-of-way, the planning coinmission may require a street approximately par,allel to and on each side of such right-of-way and at such distance therefrom as required for appropriate use of inter- vening land, if any, and as determined with due regard for require- .ments of future approach grades and grade separations. (f) Reserve strips controlling sole access to public streets shall be pro- hibited unless their control is definitely placed in the City under conditions approved by the planning department.

(i) Streets shall be laid out so as to intersect as nearly as possible at right angles, and no street shall intersect another at less than 60 degrees, provided however that other arrangements for smooth merging of traffic shall be permitted where the total effect on the intersec- tion is to reduce traffic hazards and to provide for smooth traffic flow at the intersection as a whole. Property lines at the intersection of minor streets with each other or with alleys shall be rounded with a minimum radius of 10 feet. Property lines at the intersection of alleys with any streets shall be rounded with a minimum radius of 10 feet. Property lines at all other street intersections shall be rounded with a mi nimum radius of 20 feet.

No plan or develop- ment shall take such form as to create pot6ntial or actual impoundmel)t of water on, or discharge of water onto, adjacent property in such a manner as to (a) effect adversely existing development, or (b) increase problems of future development on such adjacent property, except with the written and recorded consent of the adjoining prop,erty owners affected and the approval of the department of community Services. To these ends, tile department of community services is empowered to require such changes in plans or to establish such minimum and maximum elevations and gradients in particular subdivisions as to provide for orderly and efficient development of coordinated drai'naqe systems, even though the drai'nage proposed for a particular subdivision might be adequate for the subdivision itself, In addition, whe@-e adjoining lands are in districts with varying improvement requirements or in other cases where similar adjustments are necessary, the department of community services is empowered to establish such transitional requirements as to types of curbs and gutters, stom'drains, and the like as are appropriate and reasonably necessary in .the circumstances of the case. (a) Curb rs built to specifications of the department of commun- approved by the Council of the City of Virginia Beach d on all streets, except when it is determined by the unity services that existing soil or site conditions would make this requirement impractical; provided, however, that any such waiver sfiall be put into writing and include the reasons there- for, and be made a part of the permanent application record.

Such release shall be in full if no defects have been found to exist, or if defects found to exist have been corrected by the owner or developer. If defects found to exist have been corrected by action of the City, the costs of such action shall be deducted from the defect bond. If defects found to exist within the two-year period have not been corrected after proper notice by the end of such period, the director of community services shall make an estimate of cost of correction and such cost shall be deducted from the defect bond, and any balance remaining as a result of lesser actual than estimated cost shall be paid to the owner or developer. 7.7 Public Accel)tance of Improvemen ts or r?po:ed ledications. The installation d_ @f improvements or the offer of de C:t o" in subdivisions created here- after under the terms of this ordinance shall, in no case bind the City to accept such improvements or offers to dedicate. Upon certification of completion of required improvements as set forth in 7.6, the director of community services is authorized to accept z)n behalf of the City such dedi- cations and or improvements as the City may then be prepared to accept and maintain.

Where actual costs cannot be determined in advance of inspections, they shall be billed with 10% added within one month after such inspections, and shall be payable within 30 days from billing. Failure to pay within the period stipulated may be penalized by a stop-work order or such other action as seems warranted in the circumstances of the case. APPEALS 9.1 Appeals from Decisions of Administrative Officers. Where it is alleged there is an error in any order, requirement, decisiofo-r determination made by an administrative officer in the administration or enforcement of this ordi- nance, the owner or subdivider or agent therefor may appeal to the circuit court of the City as prescribed by law. In the case of desgin standards and general procedural matters, the appeal shall be to the Planning commission. 9.2 Modification of Standards. Upon appeal, the planning commission may modi- Ty design standards or other requirements of these regulations in order to prbserve note@qorthy features or otherwise enhance the amenity of neighbor- hoods, but such modification shall be made only upon findings tha@ public purposes of these or other applicable regulations would be met to at least an equivalent degree by such modification. Where such modification is granted, the planning commission may attach such conditions and safeguards as are deemed necessary to protect general public interest or the charac- ter of the neighborhood, and may require a guarantee or bond to assure compliance. 9.3 Variances. The planning commission may authorize upon appeal in specific Fases such variances from the strict application of the terms of this ordinance as will not be contrary to the public interest when, owing to special conditions, a literal enforcement will result in unnecessary hard- ships, provided that the spirit of this ordinance shall be observed and substantial justice done. No variance shall be authorized by the Commission unless it finds that: (a) Strict application of the ordinance would produce undue hardship. 22 (b) The authorization of the variance will not be of substantial detri- ment to adjacent property, and the character of the neighborhood will not be adversely affected. (c) The problem involved is not of so general or recurring a nature as to make reasonably practicable the formulation of general regula- tions to be adopted as an amendment to the ordinance. (d) The hardship is created by the physical character of the property, including dimensions and topography, or by other extraordinary situation or condition of such property, or by the use or develop- ment of property immediately adjacent thereto. Personal or self- inflicted hardship shall not be considered as grounds for the issuance of a variance. Where a variance is granted, the planning conimission may attach such conditions and safeguards as are deemed necessary to protect general public interest or the character of the neighborhood, and may require a guarantee or bond to assure compliance. 9.4 Appeals from Decisions of Planning Commission_.
