The RPP currently limits street parking within restricted areas to permit holders during the hours of 8 p.m. to 6 a.m. • Considerations: The Resort Civic League has expressed concerns regarding recent and planned commercial development in the Resort Area because residents are finding on-street parking spaces already occupied when they arrive home at night from work. This ordinance would change the start time of the RPP from 8 p.m. to 6 p.m. The effective date of the ordinance is July 1, 2023, which will provide time to update signage and take other steps necessary to implement this change. • Public Information: Public information will be provided through the normal Council agenda process. • Recommendations: Adopt ordinance • Attachments: Ordinance Requested by Councilmembers Berlucchi, Remick, Schulman and Taylor REQUESTED BY COUNCILMEMBERS BERLUCCHI, REMICK, SCHULMAN & TAYLOR 1 AN ORDINANCE TO AMEND SECTIONS 21- 2 353 AND 21-354 OF THE CITY CODE 3 PERTAINING TO RESIDENTIAL PARKING 4 PERMITS 5 6 SECTIONS AMENDED: §§ 21-353 & 21-354 7 8 BE IT ORDAINED BY THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF VIRGINIA 9 BEACH, VIRGINIA: 10 11 That Sections 21-253 and 21-354 of the Code of the City of Virginia Beach, 12 Virginia, are hereby amended and reordained to read as follows: 13 14 Sec. 21-353.

Permits generally. 31 32 . . . . 33 34 (c) Monthly business parking permits shall be issued by the city's parking systems 35 management office to businesses licensed to operate in city meter-regulated 36 parking areas. A current valid business license must be presented by the business 37 owner or his designee to the city's parking systems management office at the time 38 a request is made for annual business parking permits.

The civic league was concerned about extended periods of high parking occupancy on these streets during both daytime and nighttime hours as a result of a nearby multi-year hotel construction project. This area is also used for parking by residents and beachgoers. The pilot program has been successful, and because construction of the hotel project continued, the City Council approved one-year extensions of the program in 2020, 2021 and 2022. The current extension ends on April 5, 2023. • Considerations: Due to the impact of parking by employees of the nearby three hotels, the condominiums, and more than half-a-dozen restaurants, the Historic Cavalier Shores Civic League has requested an additional extension of the program. This ordinance would extend the program for three years to April 5, 2026. • Public Information: Information regarding this ordinance will be provided through the normal agenda process. • Attachments: Ordinance and Civic League Request Letter. Requested by Councilmembers Berlucchi, Remick, Schulman and Taylor REQUESTED BY COUNCILMEMBERS BERLUCCHI, REMICK, SCHULMAN AND TAYLOR 1 AN ORDINANCE TO EXTEND THE SUNSET DATE OF 2 ARTICLE III, DIVISION 5 OF CHAPTER 21 OF THE CITY 3 CODE PERTAINING TO RESIDENTIAL PERMIT PARKING 4 IN THE HISTORIC CAVALIER SHORES NEIGHBORHOOD 5 6 WHEREAS, the Virginia Department of Historic Resources added the Cavalier 7 Shores Historic District, which is comprised of the Cavalier Shores neighborhood, to the 8 Virginia Landmarks Register, noting: 9 10 The Cavalier Shores Historic District in Virginia Beach began in 1927 as a 11 housing development sponsored by the city's now-iconic Cavalier Hotel, 12 which opened that same year. While the neighborhood's direct link to the 13 hotel has since faded, a brick promenade leading to a gate to the hotel 14 grounds recalls the earlier connection. Cavalier Shores is an example of 15 coastal suburban development during the first half of the 20th century. Its 16 dense housing dating to the era indicates the neighborhood's early 17 popularity and subsequent growth. Its seven blocks of houses are 18 predominated by Colonial Revival style designs, with Tudor Revival and 19 Minimal Traditional. Lining the neighborhood's alleyways are a complement 20 of rear garages and guesthouses, the latter a common feature of coastal 21 developments of the era. The district also conveys a sense of beautification 22 and landscaping, a defining aspect of the neighborhood since the 1920s. 23 Most of the district's lots were developed by the late 1960s. Today, Cavalier 24 Shores is a rare collection of early-20th century residential architecture in 25 Virginia Beach. 26 27 WHEREAS, the Cavalier Shores Historic District also is listed in the National 28 Register of Historic Places; 29 30 WHEREAS, as noted by the Virginia Department of Historic Resources, Cavalier 31 Shores is a unique area that consists of"dense housing" dating to an era when driveways 32 were less common, and current residents of Cavalier Shores require on-street parking for 33 their vehicles; 34 35 WHEREAS, the ability of the residents to park their vehicles on the street adjacent 36 to or near their homes was severely impacted by the multi-year construction associated 37 with the Cavalier Hotel project, and now that the three hotels and condominiums have 38 been built, the ability of those residents to park their vehicles on the street near their 39 homes will be impacted by employees of the hotels, condos, and restaurants who will 40 want to park in the neighborhood; 41 42 WHEREAS, the City Council desires to address the unique needs of this historic 43 neighborhood by extending for three additional years the one-year temporary pilot 44 program it previously established—separate and apart from the current Residential 45 Parking Permit Program—to continue to address the parking needs of Cavalier Shores 46 residents. 47 48 NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT ORDAINED BY THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY 49 OF VIRGINIA BEACH, VIRGINIA: 50 51 That Article III, Division 5 of Chapter 21 shall continue to provide as follows: 52 53 DIVISION 5. — Cavalier Shores Residential Permit Parking Pilot Program 54 55 Sec. 21-381. - Objectives. 56 57 This Division is adopted as a temporary pilot program in order to mitigate traffic 58 congestion and parking scarcity on public streets within the Cavalier Shores 59 neighborhood adjacent to an ongoing construction project. 60 61 Sec. 21-382. - Definitions. 62 63 As used in this Division: 64 65 (a) Motor Vehicle shall have the meaning set forth in §46.2-100 of the State Code, 66 and shall also include mopeds and motorcycles, as defined therein. 67 68 (b) Cavalier Shores Neighborhood refers to all on-street parking on the south side 69 of 45th Street; the alley between 45th Street and 44th Street; both sides of 44th, 70 43rd 1/2, 43rd, and 42nd 1/2 Streets; the north side of 42nd Street; the alley that 71 runs parallel to the west side of Atlantic Avenue from Cavalier Drive to 45th 72 Street; and the north side of Cavalier Drive between Holly Road and Atlantic 73 Avenue. 74 75 Sec. 21-383. - Parking restrictions. 76 77 (a) It shall be unlawful for any person to park or otherwise leave unattended any all- 78 terrain vehicle, bicycle, electric personal assistive mobility device, electric power- 79 assisted bicycle, electric-powered wheeled device, gas-powered wheeled device, 80 low-speed vehicle, moped or similar wheeled device on any street in the Cavalier 81 Shores Neighborhood. 82 (b) It shall be unlawful for any person to park a motor vehicle on any street in the Cavalier 83 Shores neighborhood, where notice of these restrictions have been conspicuously 84 posted in accordance with this division, for longer than a four-hour period in any day 85 unless there is affixed to the driver's side exterior surface of the windshield of such 86 motor vehicle a valid residential parking permit or a temporary guest pass as 87 authorized by subsection 21-354(b) hanging from the rearview mirror. 88 89 Sec.21-384.-Permits generally. 90 91 The City Treasurer or the city's parking management office shall issue residential parking 92 permits pursuant to this division in accordance with the procedures set forth in section 93 21-354.

APPROVED AS TO CONTENT: APPROVED AS TO LEGAL SUFFICIENCY: 7 , 0&triA;d- E nomic Development City Attorney's Office CA16140 R-1 March 28,2023 The Historic Cavalier Shores Civic League Dear City Council, The residents of the West side of Historic Cavalier Shores request an extension of our current parking program. The 4 hour parking program has been in place for four years and has been successful in providing residents of our historic neighborhood reasonable access without unduly limiting parking for beachgoers, surfers and visitors to the Cavalier Resort . Cavalier Shores was platted and developed in the 1920's with narrow streets and brick sidewalks along both sides of the street that precludes driveways in the front of most homes and a narrow alley in the rear. Current City ordinances prohibit adding a driveways entering from the street, The pilot program has been effective and equitable to mitigate construction workers parking in the neighborhood. With the upcoming full opening of the Cavalier complex with three hotels, seven restaurants and nine bars with no seasonal parking available for their hundreds of employees continue parking protection is sorely needed. Like other cities Virginia Beach has taken many steps to protect historical neighborhoods like Cavalier Shores. The Cavalier Shores Residential Pilot Permit Parking Program is a shining example of the City's efforts in this regard.The Pilot Parking Program should not be discarded, but celebrated. Sincerely, Bernice pe Presid nt, The Historic Cavalier Shores Civic League 214 44``'Street,Virginia Beach,Virginia 23451 4z_I jf CITY OF VIRGINIA BEACH AGENDA ITEM J ITEM: A Resolution to Revise the Public Briefing Cadence of the Flood Prevention Bond Referendum Oversight Board MEETING DATE: April 4, 2023 • Background: On September 7, 2021, the City Council adopted a resolution directing certain actions take place if the Stormwater Bond Referendum was approved by the citizens. On November 2, 2021, the referendum was approved. One of the actions indicated in the resolution was the establishment of a Citizens Oversight Board.

The Board meets the second Thursday every month and on December 13, 2022, Chairman Jeff Waller, gave the first briefing to City Council. At the Board's latest meeting, the Board discussed and agreed that a more appropriate frequency for City Council briefings is quarterly, as opposed to every two months. • Considerations: The change in the frequency of briefings may be requested by the Board, and that request is subject to the approval of the City Council. The Chair of the Board made this request to the City Council at the March 21, 2023, Informal Session. • Public Information: Public information will be handled through the normal Council Agenda process. • Attachments: Resolution; November 2021 Resolution Requested by the Flood Prevention Bond Referendum Oversight Board REQUESTED BY THE FLOOD PREVENTION BOND REFERENDUM OVERSIGHT BOARD 1 A RESOLUTION TO REVISE THE PUBLIC BRIEFING 2 CADENCE OF THE FLOOD PREVENTION BOND 3 REFERENDUM OVERSIGHT BOARD 4 5 WHEREAS, the City Council adopted a resolution (the "Resolution") on November 6 16, 2021 to establish the Flood Prevention Bond Referendum Oversight Board (the 7 "Board"); 8 9 WHEREAS, the Resolution required the Board to provide a public briefing to the 10 City Council every two months; 11 12 WHEREAS, the Resolution included a provision for the Board to provide a 13 recommendation to the City Council to amend the briefing cadence after the Board was 14 constituted and began its work; 15 16 WHEREAS, as related by the Chair of the Board to the City Council on March 21, 17 2023, a quarterly report to the City Council should be sufficient to keep the City Council 18 abreast of the progress of the twenty-one named projects in the bond referendum 19 question and the elimination of the backlog in the maintenance of the City's legacy 20 ditches, canals, and ponds; 21 22 NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED BY THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY 23 OF VIRGINIA BEACH, VIRGINIA, THAT: 24 25 The City Council hereby approves the Board's request for a quarterly public 26 briefing schedule for reports to the City Council.

In 2021, the General Assembly adopted, and the Governor signed, a bill that amended state law to require the state Air Pollution Control Board to promulgate final regulations for an Advanced Clean Cars Program that includes (i) a low-emission vehicle ("LEV") program for criteria pollutants and greenhouse gas emissions and (ii) a zero-emission vehicle ("ZEV") program for motor vehicles with a gross vehicle weight of 14,000 pounds or less, beginning with the 2025 vehicle model year, or to the first model year for which adoption of such standards is practicable. EV charging stations are needed to support existing EVs and the additional EVs that will be purchased in the near future. • Considerations: City staff has prepared an Electric Vehicle Charging Plan to address the need for charging stations in the City. Adoption of the plan would provide a framework whereby the City could take the steps necessary to increase the number of charging stations in the City, including private, commercial, and governmental charging stations, and the adoption of such a plan would assist City efforts to obtain grants and federal funding for EV charging stations. The ordinance adopts the Plan and authorizes the City Manager or his designee to make minor modifications to the Plan in light of new state or federal EV programs that are initiated, or existing state or federal programs, laws or regulations that are modified. • Attachments: Ordinance, City of Virginia Beach's Electric Vehicle Charging Plan Recommended Action: Adopt Ordinance Submitting Department/Agency: Public Works-4 ~` City Manager: 1 AN ORDINANCE TO ADOPT THE CITY OF VIRGINIA 2 BEACH'S ELECTRIC VEHICLE CHARGING PLAN 3 4 WHEREAS, the number of electric vehicles ("EVs") in the United States is rapidly 5 increasing for a variety of reasons, including: consumer concerns about carbon dioxide 6 emissions; the fact that EV owners generally spend less on fuel and maintenance 7 (because EVs have fewer moving parts than gasoline engines); and federal government 8 tax incentives for EV purchasers; 9 10 WHEREAS, in 2021, the General Assembly adopted, and the Governor signed, a 11 bill that amended state law to require the state Air Pollution Control Board to promulgate 12 final regulations for an Advanced Clean Cars Program that includes (i) a low-emission 13 vehicle ("LEV") program for criteria pollutants and greenhouse gas emissions and (ii) a 14 zero-emission vehicle ("ZEV") program for motor vehicles with a gross vehicle weight of 15 14,000 pounds or less, beginning with the 2025 vehicle model year, or to the first model 16 year for which adoption of such standards is practicable; 17 18 WHEREAS, EV charging stations are needed to support existing EVs and the 19 additional EVs that will be purchased in the near future; and 20 21 WHEREAS, the adoption of a City Electric Vehicle Charging Plan would provide a 22 framework whereby the City could take the steps necessary to increase the number of 23 charging stations in the City, including private, commercial, and governmental charging 24 stations, and the adoption of such a plan would assist City efforts to obtain grants and 25 federal funding for EV charging stations. 26 27 NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT ORDAINED BY THE COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF 28 VIRGINIA BEACH, VIRGINIA: 29 30 1.

Content is based on the latest literature,expert input, contributions from city staff, public engagement, and a spatial analysis.The Plan culminates in 34 recommendations and 70 actions for the City, described below. The primary goal of this Plan is to understand current and future EV charging infrastructure needs in Virginia Beach and identify the roles that the City should play to support its residents, businesses, and visitors who require access to EV charging. This Plan aligns with federal funding requirements to ensure that EV charging infrastructure is deployed in Virginia Beach in a manner that increases access in underserved and overburdened communities and rural areas. Partnerships at the local,state and federal level and meaningful engagement with stakeholders are critical to ensuring that access to EV charging infrastructure is accessible to all members of the community. The term "EV" in this Plan refers to both battery electric vehicles (BEVs),such as a Chevrolet Bolt, as well as a plug-in hybrid electric vehicle(PHEVs), such as a Prius Prime. The term "EV infrastructure" in this Plan refers to structures, machinery, and equipment necessary and integral to support recharging of an EV, including conduit/wiring, charging pedestals, ports, connectors, and other electric vehicle supply equipment(EVSE) componentry. Motivation National attention to vehicle electrification has risen significantly in recent years. General Motors (GM) introduced the first widely available Plug-In Hybrid Electric Vehicle (PHEV),the Chevy Volt,just over a decade ago in 2010. Fast forward to today,where there are over 150 PHEV and BEV models available to consumers in the United States(U.S.). In 2022, 918,464 EVs were sold in the U.S. and cumulative domestic sales are over 3,200,000 since 2010.'Short-range EVs are expected to reach cost parity with conventional internal combustion engine (ICE)vehicles in 2024-2025, and longer range EVs by 2026- 2028,while offering significantly reduced fuel and operational costs for consumers."Automotive Original Equipment Manufacturers (OEMs) globally have announced initiatives to increase the number of EVs being manufactured, including some committing to phasing out fossil fuel vehicle production by 2040.'" Ford and GM have announced plans to invest at least$22 billion and$35 billion in electrification by 2025, respectively.' In conjunction with a rapidly growing marketplace,federal and state investment in programs to incentivize the deployment of EVs and charging infrastructure has soared. The 2021 Bipartisan Infrastructure Law (BIL) provides$7.5B specifically for build-out of a national EV charging network of 500,000 stations thought the National Electric Vehicle Infrastructure(NEVI) and Charging and Fueling Infrastructure(CFI) Program;the 2022 Inflation Reduction Act (IRA) provides consumers and commercial operators with tax credits for up to$7,500 for the purchase of a new EV. In total,there is over$100 billion in potential funding for EV programs in BIL and IRA, up from just$3.3 billion prior to their 5IPage implementation.'At the state level,governments have already adopted policies to phase out the sale of new ICE vehicles'and are funding a wide range of programs to incentivize local deployment of EVs and charging infrastructure."'Electrification of the transportation sector has become a policy cornerstone throughout the U.S. at the federal, state, and municipal level to meet economic,sustainability and energy efficiency goals. In March 2021,Clean Cars Virginia (HB19651 was signed into law,which puts Virginia on a pathway for all new light-duty vehicles (LDVs)sold in the state to be zero emissions vehicles (ZEVs) by 2035. As a result, projections suggest as many as 15,000 EVs in Virginia Beach by 2030 and 40,000 by 2035. This Plan was developed to help the City prepare for this transition by aniticipating charging demand and to organize local stakeholders around a unified view of the changing vehicle landscape. This Plan provides a framework of current initiatives,technologies and public perceptions related to EV charging in the city; projections of EV adoption and required charging infrastructure for the city; and reccomendations that will help Virginia Beach faciliate the equitable deployment of charging infrastructure. Recommendations and Actions The Plan is built around a set of 34 recommendations and 70 associated actions—including potential short, medium and long-term opportunities—that should be implemented to support effective deployment of EV charging infrastructure in Virginia Beach. See Chapter 6 for details on each recommendation. The recommendations address six key goals: 1. Ensure charging is available and convenient—How to make charging easier? 2. Catalyze public engagement around EV charging—How do we increase awareness and participation? 3. Establish municipal EV programs—How can the City lead the way? 4. Enhance charger access at Municipal Sites—How do we expand charger deployment at municipally-owned sites? 5. Identify sources of funding for EVs and charging infrastructure—What federal,state, and local resources can the City utilize? 6. Prepare for the future— What issues need to be considered now for the long term? Table 1 shows specific recommendations related to each goal area.

These Pathways are not meant to provide a conclusive forecast but rather to understand plausible future vehicle adoption rates and associated infrastructure needs. 7IPage The two Pathways are: • Current Pathway—Continued implementation of the Clean Cars Virginia law with new standards going into effect in 2024. In this Pathway, EV sales reach 100%of new light duty vehicle sales in 2035. This is the expected EV adoption pathway for Virginia Beach. • Alternative Pathway—Virginia Clean Cars is repealed,and electric vehicle sales grow at a similar rate to national level forecasts. In this Pathway, EV sales reach approximately 46%of total new light duty vehicles by 2035. This Pathway will require policy intervention. Figure 1 shows the estimated number of charging plugs needed in Virginia Beach for the two Pathways. These charger projections are based on the National Renewable Energy Laboratory's Electric Vehicle Infrastructure Projection Tool.'If should be noted that these figures show the total number of vehicle charging ports (plugs)that will be required, not the number of total charging stations or pedestals.

The two graphs show the number of publicly accessible workplace, L2, and DCFC plugs needed. The anticipated number of residential chargers is expected to be tens of thousands in the next 10 years, even in the lower alternative Pathway.This is driven by the fact that most electric vehicle owners today prefer to charge at home overnight.As elaborated in Chapter 4, it is expected that approximately 61%of Virginia Beach residents will primarily be expected to charge their vehicle as home ("113,500 residential chargers). Wage However, in the long term the need for publicly accessible chargers will become more important as electric vehicle ownership will shift towards greater shares of renters, residents of multi-unit dwellings (MUDs), or others who are rely on street parking for their vehicle. In addition, providing charging access to visitors is of particular concern for Virginia Beach,which reached a population of 11.5 million in 2021, including 5.8 million overnight visitors. In the Current Pathway—continued implementation of Clean Cars Virginia—as many as 1,800 new DCFC and 4,300 L2 publicly accessible charging plugs will be required by 2035, in addition to workplace and residential chargers. Note,these figures assume the number of vehicles owned and the vehicle miles traveled in Virginia Beach are the same in the future as they are today.

Limitations and Opportunities for Future Consideration The pace of electric vehicle adoption is accelerating by way of increasing vehicle availability,decreasing costs, and normalizing of the technology.This rapid pace creates new opportunities for the City to support policies and programs which enable the deployment of electric vehicle charging infrastructure. Many cities, communities,and states are in the process of developing similar strategies and implementing programs to pursue and identify best practices.As such,there is still much to be learned, and the body of evidence supporting best practices, policies, and programs continues to emerge and evolve.This Plan is based on information available at the time of its development and current factors such as the following: • The adoption rate of electric vehicles and the existing and potential demand for electric vehicle charging infrastructure needs in Virginia Beach. • The City's existing policies, practices, and plans. • The status of electric vehicle policies at the regional,state, and federal levels. • The resources and evidence underlying best practices, policies, and programs available to cities to advance electric vehicle adoption and support related charging infrastructure. • An evolving electric vehicle and charging infrastructure industry and marketplace with numerous actors (such as battery and car manufacturers, automobile dealers, charging infrastructure companies, utilities,etc.),as well as evolving technology, business models, building and electric codes—all within an overall trend of a disruptive technology environment advancing multimodal transportation alternative mobility options. While the City should prepare for the transition to electric vehicles, it does not see great value in playing a role in individuals' and businesses' purchase decisions. However,the City can both directly and indirectly support its residents and visitors by implementing policies and programs that make electric vehicle charging infrastructure available and accessible. The following are notes regarding limitations of the Plan: • Many of the recommendations provided in Chapter 6 do not have a robust literature or set of examples to understand the full range of implications. Rather,the recommendations are based on the best available information, as well as thoughtful consideration by City staff. • The modeling conducted in Chapter 4 of future electric vehicle adoption; number of charging stations;electrical energy use and demand; and costs by individuals, businesses, utilities, private charging companies, and potentially the City are for informational purposes only.The modeling 10I Page results provide information on possible future Pathways of charging infrastructure needs and how the City can support more widespread adoption of electric vehicles and electric vehicle charging infrastructure given implementation of various policies and programs at the local, state,and federal levels.The modeling completed for this Plan is based on a relatively small current electric vehicle population and uses the best techniques currently available to provide the City with as much information as possible for future planning and policy decision-making. • As more robust and expansive policies and programs emerge and advance supporting adoption of EVs and charging infrastructure,there will be need to reevaluate, refine, or pivot many of the recommendations in the Plan. • This Plan is not intended as a standalone planning document for electric vehicle charging infrastructure needs, planning efforts, policy and program development, etc. Instead,this document should be used to help inform other relevant planning, policy,and programmatic efforts, including the Comprehensive Plan,Sea Level Wise Adaptation Strategy,zoning, parks and open space planning,affordable housing plans, economic development plan,the City's Capital Improvement Program,and the City's annual budget process. As the City considers recommendations in this Plan, and as the electric vehicle and electric vehicle charging infrastructure industry evolves,trends that may be useful for the City to consider or necessary for future study or evaluation include the following: • Vehicle-to-Building and Vehicle-to-Grid Technologies Opportunities. As electric vehicles emerge as opportunities to support building electric system and electric grid interactivity for cost savings, electric reliability and resilience,and energy system transition, pursuing better understanding of the opportunities and benefits of these technologies and capabilities for the City and the Virginia Beach community. • Freight,Offroad, Emergency Vehicles.As electric vehicle technologies expand to various transportation segments, including freight hauling, offroad, and emergency vehicles, additional consideration may be needed to support such transportation needs.As these transportation segments have unique and individual use cases and needs, special infrastructure criteria will likely need to be taken into consideration. • Utility Business Models and Rates.The utility business model is evolving with the disruption of renewable energy, interactive communications technologies, storage technologies, emerging market constructs, and ways to incentivize more productive and efficient use of electrical grid assets and systems.As such, utility business models and rates to support EV and charging infrastructure will be critical to follow, understand, and advocate for best practices to provide balanced and prudent investments, reasonable and appropriate allocation of costs, and necessary incentives and benefits to customers and the utility. 11 I Page CHAPTER 1. BASICS OF ELECTRIC VEHICLE CHARGING This chapter provides basic information about electric vehicles and electric vehicle charging infrastructure. What are Electric Vehicles? Both Plug-in Hybrid (PHEV) and Battery Electric Vehicles (BEVs) use electrical energy, stored in batteries in the vehicle,for propulsion via an electric motor. PHEVs can operate by also using gasoline to supplement the Electricity,whereas a BEV can only use the electrical energy stored in onboard batteries. Together,this report refers to PHEVs and BEVs as electric vehicles or EVs.l BENEFITS OF ELECTRIC VEHICLES AND INFRASTRUCTURE • Saving Households Money. EV have much lower costs for fuel and maintenance than internal combustion engine vehicles(ICEVs),resulting in hundreds of dollars of savings each year for the average household. EV owners participating in Time of Use charging programs can leverage lower cost electricity by charging during off-peak periods.With existing federal tax credits, many EVs have reached cost parity with ICEV counterparts. • Benefits to Electricity Grid.Widespread transportation electrification increases the overall use rate of the grid if charging is shifted to off-peak periods. By strategically adding new electric load at the right times(such as when grid use is lowest overnight), EV adoption in Virginia Beach can support an increased use of renewable energy. EVs can also be used in demand response programs,whereby local utilities can strategically manage how and when charging occurs to improve grid operations. • Increased Local Fuels. By transitioning toward greater numbers of electric vehicles,Virginia Beach can increase its dependence on locally produced fuels(electricity),thereby pushing jobs and economic benefits to its citizens rather than outside the state. • Economic Development. Installation and operation of new charging stations,as well as maintenance of EVS,will provide new employment opportunities to local populations. Workforce development programs can be established to leverage this opportunity,particularly with targeted assistance to disadvantaged communities(DACs). • Health,Equity and Environmental Justice. ICEVs produce air pollution through tailpipe emissions, which adversely affects health outcomes. Low-and moderate-income populations are particularly vulnerable to air pollution stressors and often live closer to roadways than people in other communities. • Reduced Greenhouse Gas Emissions.On a life-cycle basis,electric vehicles are superior to ICEVs in Virginia Beach. For example,according to the Union of Concerned Scientists'online calculator,a Chevrolet Bolt driven in Virginia Beach emits an estimated 112 grams of carbon dioxide equivalent per mile,while a similarly sized gasoline vehicle emits 381 grams per mile.As renewable electricity generation increases,the benefits of electric vehicles will further increase compared to gasoline and diesel vehicles. ' Fuel cell electric vehicles—another type of electric vehicle—use energy stored in hydrogen onboard the vehicle in a fuel cell. Fuel cell electric vehicles are not discussed further in this report. 12 I Page Today's PHEVs have an all-electric range of 20 to over 100 miles,which is slowly increasing as battery technology improves.The most common PHEVs in Virginia Beach include the Jeep Wrangler 4xe, Chevy Volt, and Toyota Prius Prime. BEVs have a range of 80 miles to more than 500 miles, depending on the model.As with PHEVs,the average BEV range has increased over time.Vehicle range is primarily driven by battery size (capacity),which states how much electricity can be stored in the battery pack.The most common BEVs in Virginia Beach today are the Tesla Models 3,S,Y, and X,the Ford Mustang Mach-E, and the Nissan Leaf. What is Electric Vehicle Charging Infrastructure? Charging infrastructure includes both the equipment used to charge electric vehicles as well as the wiring, conduits,substations, and transformers needed to provide electricity supply to the charger. Electric vehicle charging stations are typically either categorized by the power level or by the location type.There are three groups of chargers by power level: Level 1, Level 2, and Direct Current Fast Charger(DCFC)stations(also sometimes called Level 3). Classification by location type is typically public, workplace, and residential.The greatest amount of information is known about the publicly accessible chargers,which are tracked by data aggregators like the U.S. DOE Alternative Fuels Data Center(AFDC) and Plugshare.com. Level 1 chargers include standard 120 V outlets or lamppost connectors with input power levels of 1.3 to 2.4 kW.Though the slowest charging option, Level 1 chargers offer the least expensive costs in terms of installation since no permits or supplemental equipment are typically needed beyond an electrical outlet. Due to the slow charge rate, Level 1 chargers are good for vehicles with long dwell times and relatively low daily mileage, such as for vehicles driven 30 miles or less per day and parked at work for most of the workday and at home at night. Level 1 chargers provide three to five miles per hour of charge. Level 2 chargers require a 208 V to 240 V electrical circuit (similar to common household Charging Pedestal clothing dryers) and have a faster charge speed than a Level 1 charger,with input power levels up to 22 kW.Level 2 chargers require an electrical permit and a certified electrician for installation. Port or .0 •� .p Level 2 chargers comprise the vast majority of Plug chargers in the United States and in Virginia " Beach. A typical EV will take approximately eight hours to charge from empty to full. DCFC chargers are currently rated at power levels of 50 kW to 350 kW and are the fastest chargers available today. Due to the infrastructure Charging Plaza requirements,these are also the most expensive. Figure 2.Component Descriptions of EV Charging Only BEV models are currently capable of using 13 I Page DCFCs.2Additionally, because of limitations in the battery management system in vehicles, 50 kW is the highest charging power that most vehicles can accept today(three models,the Tesla Model Y, Porsche Taycan and Lucid Air can charge at 350kW).The next generation of EVs in the US are all expected to power levels up to 350 kW. Electrify America and EVgo, both major providers of DCFC stations in the United States, primarily build DCFCs.The newest chargers are backward compatible with the older, slower charging vehicles (DCFCs have three different charger connectors). DCFCs rated at 50kW typically provide 200 miles per hour of charge; a 350kW station can provide 200 miles of charge in as little as 12 minutes.

Electric vehicle charging infrastructure can be sited in several different types of locations in Virginia Beach. Each charging typology has a different set of considerations for installation, power level, operations,fees, and equipment type.The bullet list below briefly describes each type that are available for public us or public access. • Residential chargers. Residential chargers can be broadly categorized into chargers at single- family homes (in a garage, carport,or driveway) and chargers at multifamily dwellings (in parking garages or surface lots). Multifamily dwelling chargers can be either shared between multiple residents or dedicated for a single resident. • Workplace chargers.These chargers are located in employee parking lots. Sometimes referred to as at-work chargers,these chargers include commuter park-and-ride lots or daily public parking at transit hubs. Electric vehicle drivers can use workplace charging as a replacement or supplement for residential charging. Workplace chargers are typically owned and operated by the employer and (less commonly) by Electric Vehicle Service Providers (EVSP5)x' Level 1 chargers are appropriate when the parking is assigned, and Level 2 chargers work well for parking that is not assigned or where valet service is available. Most electric vehicle drivers will 2 The only exception is the PHEV model, Mitsubishi Outlander,which can use a DCFC. 14 I Page not need a Level 2 charger for an entire workday, and employers should MATCHING DWELL TIMES WITH CHARGING SPEED consider ways to ensure turnover of the parking spot during the day to avoid idle Residential parking in single-family homes can use charging and to maximize charger use. slower chargers since residents typically spend • Publicly accessible chargers.These each night at home and can charge the car slowly chargers include any publicly available and offers the lowest cost form of charging. or shared-use charging station. Key Level 1 chargers are appropriate when average categories of locations include daily miles are relatively low(less than 30 miles attractions (like shopping centers, cafes, per day),while Level 2 chargers work well for libraries, and parks), public right-of-way, vehicles with higher daily mileage. For this interstate off ramps, and community typology, electric vehicle chargers are typically charging hubs. Commercial parking owned by the household. areas can vary widely in the amount of time that cars sit dormant. Level 1 chargers are typically not appropriate for publicly accessible chargers unless a site has a long (e.g., 8 hours or more) dwell time. Best practice is to network these chargers, as they may be accessed by many unique users (see next section). Further, DCFC can be installed in parking areas that are publicly owned and publicly available(such as park- and-ride lots, public library parking lots,and on-street parking)or that are privately owned but publicly available(such as shopping center parking lots and commercial office parking garages). Commercial sites that are a good fit for DCFCs are areas where people spend 20 to 30 minutes, such as grocery stores, pharmacies, and convenience stores. Sites that are a good fit for Level 2 chargers are areas where people spend around one to four hours, such as movie theaters, libraries, museums, and sit-down restaurants. What are Networked or Smart Stations? Charging stations can be networked,with a connection to a central backend system via internet, or they may not be networked, where they are not connected to an IT system.All levels of chargers can be networked. Networked chargers typically require an ongoing monthly, per session, or annual networking fee to the user, site host, or both.The levels of communication available for a networked charger can include communication with the site host, utility grid, internet,and user. Charging stations usually connect to a network by cellular, ethernet, or Wi-Fi. Garages can have network connection complications due to low signal strength, and repeaters may need to be installed to ensure communication capabilities. Networked chargers can communicate between and connect the following: • Electric vehicle to parking space • Electric vehicle to charging station • User to payment network • Charging station to site host • User to vehicle 15 I Page A high degree of information can be provided to the user via smart phone, radio-frequency identification tag,or computer. Many networked chargers use an application on a smartphone,though there is not one common platform for electric vehicle charging at this time. National interoperability standards and communications protocols are currently being developed. What Types of Connectors are Used at Charging Stations? Figure 3 shows the types of connectors associated with each of the three types of EV charging. Most chargers and electric vehicles use a standard SAE J1772 connector and inlet that is compatible with Level 1 and Level 2 chargers.The standardization of cords and connectors is an ongoing issue for DCFC. The combined charging system (CCS)connector is used by American-and European-made electric vehicles.The CHAdeMO connector is used by Japanese-and Korean-made electric vehicles.Tesla superchargers are only capable of charging Tesla vehicles. However,Tesla vehicles are capable of charging at CHAdeMO connectors (but require an adapter). Final guidance regarding standards for federally-funded EV charging projects is currently in development, but interim guidance requires that all federally funded DCFC stations funded under the NEVI program must be equipped with both CCS and CHAdeMO connectors,x'i in addition to other interoperability standards for communications and operations Electric Vehicle Charger Basics s Level 1 Level 2 DC Fast Chargin: Name& i Residential& Residential&Public Public Charging • Application 1 Workplace Chargin: Char:in: I 1 lw I 11) 481 • �.� :•� Not Applicable Outlet Residential 120v High Voltage Appliance Outlet 240v Outlet 00 00 0• \` lug/Connector:4 • • • • �0 0/ Type 0 -.O 0-4-:)) " J-1772 Connector .1-1772 Connector CCS CHAdeMO Connector Connector 4101740) • o Tesla Connector Power Output 1.4-1.9 kW 2.2 kW- 19.2 kW 50 kW-350 kW Estimated PHEV:S-6 hours PHEV: 1-2 hours PHEV:Limited Application Charge Time BEV:40-50 hours BEV:4-10 hours BEV:20 minutes-1 hour from Empty Charge Rat 2-5 miles/hour 10-20 miles/hour charged 180-240 miles/hour charged charged Charging Cost $ $$ $$$ Figure 3.

There are numerous Electric Vehicle Supply Equipment (EVSE) and Electric Vehicle Service CHARGING-AS-A-SERVICE Provider(EVSP) companies operating in the U.S. Some EVSPs—such as EV Connect, These companies will partner with site hosts to SemaConnect, and Shell Recharge Solutions — provide and install charging equipment, and in provide charging-as-a-service.

Development and operation of public charging infrastructure (Figure 5) requires close coordination across four primary entities: (1) charging station providers, (2)site hosts, (3) electric utilities, and (4) 17 I Page governments. Each actor has a specific role to play to support the deployment of EV charging infrastructure, and each its own set of objectives and procedures for how and where charging stations are located, owned and operated.

Site Host, or Utility Owner-Operator Figure 5.Components of Grid Connected Charging Infrastructure 1) Charging Station Providers. Charging station providers (or Electric Vehicle Service Providers (EVSPs), provide charging equipment, communications network services, and may provide ongoing operational services.Today,there are over 35 charging providers offering networked charging in the United States.<' Not all providers have networks in every state. For example,California has 21 providers while Alaska has 6, and Puerto Rico has only 2. Charging providers fall into two main categories: (1)those who own and operate the stations and (2)those who sell equipment and/or network services to third parties (see Figure 4 above).Setting station fees involves a complex set of interrelated considerations, including whether to have a per minute or per kWh fee,whether to include a monthly or annual subscription fee,and whether to charge a penalty for idle charging. The type of fee is set either by the charging provider or by the site host, depending on the type of arrangement. EVSPs are typically engaged by sites hosts (including municipal entities)to install and operate charging infrastructure, partnering with utilities to ensure sites have necessary electrical infrastructure to enable provision of EV charging services. 2) Site Hosts. Site hosts typically view charging as an amenity that attracts visitors and are the primary actors in determining where publicly available charging will be installed. For example, commercial site hosts with EV charging often report higher sales inside their shops, restaurants,gas stations, etc. Similarly, employers use workplace chargers as an benefit to support hiring and employee retention, and multi-unit dwelling owners use it to attract tenants.

EV loads can be flexible and Source: Cadmus analysis of DOE AFDC data can be managed across time without impacting the ability of EVs to accomplish their primary goal of providing mobility services. If EVs are grid-connected for extended periods (i.e.,when a vehicle is parked and plugged in to a charger),they can be managed to charge at off-peak times or can provide temporary battery backup through bidirectional charging. Electric utilities differ in their willingness to pay for charging infrastructure and support charging infrastructure in other ways, like demand charge mitigation and time of use rates. In some cases, utilities may act as the retailer and owner/operator of a public EV charging station; in other cases,they will only ensure reliable delivery of electricity to the project site. 4) Governments.At a high level,the key roles of government in relation to operation and deployment of charging infrastructure is that of facilitation and leadership.This may include removal of barriers to implementation, such providing information and tools to residents,streamlining of permitting processes, or enabling EVSPs to operate public charging services on municipal properties. This could also mean incentivizing development of charging stations in rural areas with low utilization to ensure spatial coverage, or prioritizing chargers in disadvantaged neighborhoods to maximize access and health benefits to vulnerable populations. Ultimately,government programs help to provide EV drivers with accessibility to the charging needed to procure and operate EVs, both in residential and public applications. While most public sector funding for charging infrastructure comes from federal or state programs,site approval occurs at the local level. It should be noted the public charging infrastructure will rarely be owned and operated by municipal governments. However, non-public chargers may be owned by governments to provide services municipal fleet vehicles, or they may partner with EVSPs to operate public charging on municipal properties. 19 I Page CHAPTER 2. CONTEXT AND HISTORY This chapter summarizes the history and current market conditions of EVs at the national, state and local level to help contextualize increased demand for EV charging infrastructure. The chapter has three sections: 1. National Electric Vehicle Market Summary 2. Commonwealth's Electric Vehicle Market Summary 3. Virginia Beach's Electric Vehicle Market Summary National Electric Vehicle Market Summary This chapter summarizes the current market status of EVs and chargers in the U.S., highlights key federal policies,and discusses key barriers to greater EV adoption. Introduction EV adoption has steadily increased since 2011—the start of the modern EV era.Annual sales of EV in the U.S. have grown from 25,000 in 2011'to 918,464 in 2022,with over 3.2 million cumulative PHEV and BEV sold in the US to date."Figure 7 shows monthly sales of BEVs and PHEVs through 2022. 120u N 1000 c 800 a 600 N 0) 400 rt > 200 0 _ . ■ ■ II 2011 2012 2013 2014 2015 2016 2017 2018 2019 2020 2021 2022* ■ BEV ■ PHEV Figure 7.

On November 15, 2021, H.R. 3684,the Infrastructure Investment and Jobs Act (MA) became law.Also known as the Bipartisan Infrastructure Law (BIL),this legislation provides billions of dollars in investment in national infrastructure systems. These actions began significant federal investment for EVs and charging infrastructure, including the establishment of a new Joint Office of Energy and Transportation. The new Office was created to facilitate collaboration between the Department of Energy(DOE) and Department of Transportation (DOT)and support of the deployment of zero-emission, accessible,equitable transportation infrastructure. National Electric Vehicle infrastructure Program The largest program established for EV charging infrastructure through BIL was the National Electric Vehicle Infrastructure (NEVI) Program,administered by the Department of Transportation's (DOT) Federal Highway Administration (FHWA).This program provides$5 billion in funding to states for the development of a national EV charging network through 2026. The goal of the NEVI program is to establish a network of public Direct Current Fast Charger(DCFC) charging stations across the country,with stations installed every 50 miles along FHWA Alternative Fuel Corridors.All charging stations constructed through the NEVI program as required to be located within one mile from interstate exists or highway intersections along designated corridors. National Alternative Fuel Corridors Between February and March each year,the Federal Highway Administration (FHWA) administers an application process for states to designate a national network of alternative fueling and charging infrastructure along National Highway System (NHS) corridors,consisting of EV charging, liquified petroleum gas (LPG), compressed natural gas (CNG), liquid natural gas (LNG), and hydrogen. The FHWA designates highway corridors as either"Corridor-Ready" or"Corridor-Pending."The criteria for EV corridor designations are shown in Table 3 below. Corridor-Ready highways contain at least one charging station that meets the criteria outlined in Table 3 every 50 miles.These AFCs are considered complete and ready for interstate EV travel. If an AFC highway segment is designated as "Corridor- Pending,"then it requires additional charging stations to be constructed in order to meet Corridor Ready criteria.A plan and timeline for how these additional stations will be constructed must have been submitted to FHWA. Table 3.

"If a corridor is being designated as corridor-pending and currently has no alternative fuel facilities located on it,then a strategy or plan and timeline for infrastructure build-out should be submitted. "'Tesla charging stations are currently considered a proprietary network and do not meet the designation criteria of being publicly accessible.Therefore,these stations are not eligible for inclusion. Exceptions are permitted for distance from Interstate exits or highway intersections and between stations along the corridor,if justified. Any state or local agency is invited to nominate an Alternative Fuel Corridor(AFC)for designation.An eligible corridor is an interstate highway(e.g., 1-10, 1-80, 1-95, etc.) or other highways on the National Highway System (NHS).The FHWA encourages nominations that focus on alternative fueling/charging infrastructure along Interstate corridors but may also submit nominations elsewhere on the NHS. Corridors within a single state and multistate corridors are eligible,with the goal of connecting communities,cities,states,and regions to develop a national network of alternative fuel facilities. The deadline for states to nominate highway segments for AFC designation in Round 6 was May 13, 2022, and designations were announced on July 5, 2022. Requests for Round 7 nominations are expected in May of 2023. Charging and Fueling Infrastructure Discretionary Grant Program In addition to the NEVI Formula Program, BIL established the Charging and Fueling Infrastructure(CFI) Discretionary Grant Program,which provides$2.5 billion through two$1.25 billion discretionary grant programs to strategically deploy publicly accessible EV charging and alternative fueling infrastructure in communities and along designated AFCs. The two grant programs are: • Alternative Fuel Corridor Grants. This$1.25 billion program will strategically deploy publicly accessible EV charging infrastructure along designated AFCs.This program is meant to fill gaps in infrastructure that were not addressed through the NEVI program. • Community Charging and Fueling Grants.This$1.25 billion program will strategically deploy publicly accessible EV charging infrastructure in communities.This funding will be available to municipalities for the installation of charging infrastructure,with a focus on low-to-moderate income (LMI)groups, environmental justice (EJ), rural and tribal communities. Other Key Federal Programs Numerous other federal programs were established or gained additional funding through BIL that are applicable for the deployment of EV infrastructure, both through formula and discretionary (competitive)grants.Table 4 provides an overview of other key federal funding programs;see Chapter 6, Goal 5 for further information on sources of federal funding. 23IPage Table 4.Other Key Federal EV and Charging Infrastructure Funding Programs Title Description Lead Funding Funding Funding Agency ($MM) Type Targets Congestion Expands eligible projects under the DOT $13,200 Formula MDHD, Mitigation and CMAQ program to include shared micro Charging Air Quality mobility as well as the purchase of zero- (CMAQ) emission medium and heavy duty Improvement (MDHD)vehicles.

Metropolitan This opportunity provides entities with a DOT $4,831 Formula Charging Planning(PL) comprehensive framework for making transportation investment decisions in metropolitan areas. Equity and Environmental Justice Historically,disadvantaged communities (DACs) have been disproportionately impacted by the negative consequences of transportation and energy systems.These communities have been unequally and adversely impacted by vehicular pollution, poverty, unemployment, chronic underinvestment in local transportation infrastructure, and have not been adequately represented in planning of new transportation systems.As EV adoption continues to grow in the coming years, it is critical that charging infrastructure be deployed in a manner that adequately supports disadvantaged and historically marginalized communities. Executive Order 14008',enacted on January 27, 2021, attempts to combat this inequitable distribution of benefits in federal spending by establishing the government-wide Justice40 Initiative'", which made it a goal that 40%of the overall benefits of certain federal investments flow to communities that are marginalized, underserved, and overburdened by pollution. In addition to directing all federal agencies to achieving environmental justice part of their missions by developing programs, policies, and activities to address the disproportionately high and adverse human health, environmental, climate-related and other cumulative impacts on disadvantaged communities, EO 14008 directed the publication of the EJScreen Environmental Justice and Screening Tool.x'x EJScreen provides a nationally consistent dataset and approach for combining environmental and demographic socioeconomic indicators. This publicly available resource enables users to see the demographic socioeconomic and environmental information for a particular region in order to understand the distribution of EJ communities.This tool was used to develop numerous other EJ tools for sector-specific review, including the Joint Office of Transportation and Energy Electric Vehicle Charging Justice 40 map. 25 ( Page Prioritizing EV charging locations in disadvantaged areas to expand EV ownership can reduce tailpipe emission exposure and the overall pollution burden in these communities. In addition, agencies are directed to work directly with disadvantaged and underserved populations in the development of new planning processes to ensure that the needs of these communities are adequately addressed in the manner that directly meets the needs of local populations. The Commonwealth of Virginia's Electric Vehicle Market Summary This chapter provides the context for the current EV market in the Commonwealth of Virginia (also referred to as the Commonwealth)and summarizes recent and forthcoming policy actions at the state and utility levels. EV and Charger Adoption At the end of 2021,there were 30,700 EVs and 15,800 PHEVs registered in the Commonwealth of Virginia, up from just 3,100 BEV and 4,200 PHEVs in 2016. As shown in Figure 10,Virginia had the 12th most EV registrations as a fraction of new vehicle registrations in 2021.xx The number of EV models available to consumers has risen significantly over the past decade.While only two passenger vehicle models were available in 2011,today there are over 90 different vehicle makes available for purchase in Virginia. 18 of the 20 major global automotive OEMs have stated commitments to offer increased EV models in the coming years, including GM who has committed 100%of vehicle sales to be zero emissions by 2035,xx'and Ford by 2035 in leading markets and globally by 2040.xx"These commitments will translate to 50-75%of all new vehicle sales in the U.S. as electric by 2030. 8.0% 7.0% a� II N 6.0%o o • O �p o � N 5.0% 0 ' ai o v a v 4.0% o \ � 0 ^ ^ mnirri 0 0 0 0 \ o o g fr1 M M V1 N N N N 3.0/o 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 ^ n o�\o 00 00 N N N N N E 0e-1NN • •00•. ii.1111111111nnnppp'plld!!I!!! !! ,, (C f6 (9 vi f6 ?

EVs as Portion of Total Vehicle Registration by State,2021 Data State and Local Actions Across the Commonwealth Though not required, some municipalities across Virginia have developed and enacted plans related to EVs and charging infrastructure deployment.

In December 2020,the Metropolitan Washington Council of Governments(MWCOG) Board of Director's adopted a 2030 regional Climate and Energy Action Plan with aggressive goals to achieve a 50% reduction in regional greenhouse gas emissions by 2030.'This 2030 regional Climate and Energy Action Plan includes numerous actions to reduce greenhouse gas emissions across buildings,the electricity grid, waste,tree canopy, and transportation. Considering the reduction of greenhouse gas emissions from transportation,the plan includes actions to expand light-duty vehicle adoption, accelerate electrification of MDHD vehicles, and to build out the regional EV charging network. The MWCOG plan calls for significantly expanding workplace, publicly accessible Level 2 chargers, and DCFC locations. The plan acknowledges ways the MWCOG can support jurisdictions such as Virginia Beach, including support in adopting EV-ready new construction ordinances or incentives,conducting regional EV gap analysis to identify most critical gaps in EV charging network, and advocating for state and federal national incentives for EV charging deployment and technology advancement.The plan also acknowledges the ways member local governments can support building a regional EV charging network,such as the following recommended efforts: • Conducting local EV planning, including public fleet,transit, and community-scale initiatives. • Requiring new developments to install EV infrastructure or be EV-ready. • Providing or promoting incentives EV infrastructure deployment in communities. • Developing EV infrastructure plans for community deployment. • Developing EV infrastructure strategies for the public fleet and for deploying EV charging infrastructure at public facilities,garages, and refueling facilities. • Forming partnerships with utilities,transit agencies, and EV infrastructure providers to deploy charging infrastructure in the community. • Implementing innovative pilot initiatives to advance new technologies, including vehicle-to-grid, regenerative power, and solar-powered EV infrastructure. In addition,the plan emphasizes equity considerations in EV charging infrastructure planning and implementation, including prioritizing disadvantaged communities to ensure equitable access to charging and the benefits of public health, including reducing gasoline and diesel use where these fuels are the major causes of criteria air pollutants and associated adverse health impacts. EVs,which release no tailpipe emissions,can help to significantly reduce local air pollution. Virginia Clean Economy Act In 2020,the legislation passed the Virginia Clean Economy Act(VCEA), setting the Commonwealth on a path to achieve net-zero carbon emissions economy-wide by 2045 for all sectors including electricity, transportation, buildings, agriculture, and industry.While the VCEA's primary focus is to expand the renewable energy electricity generation and decarbonize Virginia's electricity grid,given the transition 27 I Page of transportation to use electricity from the electrical grid as its primary fuel source,there is significant benefit to decarbonizing transportation. In July 2020,the Environmental Justice Act was passed in Virginia, establishing the Office of Environmental Justice within the Virginia Department of Environmental Quality. VCEA contains specific provisions to address EJ concerns through a commitment to invest 50%of the funding generated by Regional Greenhouse Gas Initiative (RGGI) auction proceeds towards energy efficiency for low-income housing. It also requires the state Public Utility Commission (PUC)to ensure that new or expanding energy facilities does not have a disproportionate impact on DACs. Additionally,the PUC must consider whether the placement of renewable energy facilities provides benefits to those communities and requires an annual Environmental Justice Review to ensure that low-income households are not burdened by the energy transition. VCEA protects consumers against spikes in electricity bills, instructing that no residential bill will increase by more than 10%at a time,which has a disproportionately negative impact on low-income households. Virginia's Alternative Fuel Corridors and NEVI The NEVI formula grant program makes$5 billion available to states over five years for deployment of EV charging infrastructure along AFCs within the NHS.Virginia currently eight AFC designated corridors for EV Charging shown in Figure 11. Four of these segments are currently designated at "Corridor Ready" and four are "Corridor Pending," as shown in Table 5. Both designation categories are eligible for projects funded through the NEVI program. • Corridor Ready Corridor Pending Figure 11.Virginia Round 6 AFC Corridor Designations FHWA had designated five of these corridors in Rounds 1-5, and three additional designations were made in Round 6. Round 6 designations included: • 1-77: Between the VA/WV border and the VA/NC border. • 1-295: Between Short Pump and the 1-295/1-95 interchange in Petersburg. • 1-495: Between Springfield and the VA/MD border. 28 I Page Table 5.Virginia EV Charing AFC Designations NHS EV Charging AFC Designations in Virginia, Rounds 1-6 Corridor Ready Corridor Pending 1-64 1-85 1-66 1-77 1-95 1-295 1-81 1-495 Those AFC segments listed as "Corridor Ready" in Table 5 already contain charging infrastructure as required by FHWA. Those highways that are designated as "Corridor Pending" require additional build out of charging infrastructure to achieve"Corridor Ready"status. NEVI funds distributed to Virginia will be allocated to construction of charging infrastructure along these highway segments in 2023. Virginia is expected to receive$106,376,132 between 2022 and 2026 for the construction and operation of EV charging stations through the NEVI program.To obtain allocated formula funds under the NEVI program,each state was required to submit an EV Infrastructure Deployment Plan (Deployment Plan) that describes how it intends to use program funds. The Virginia Department of Transportation (VDOT) submitted a Deployment Plan to FHWA on August 1, 2022.XX""While this plan does not identify all specific projects that will be deployed using the NEVI Formula funds, it provides a blueprint by which Virginia is expected to allocate funding under the program. The Virginia Electric Vehicle Deployment Plan was approved by FHWA on September 30, 2022. The Deployment Plan will be updated at least annually, and VDOT will continue its outreach strategies throughout the 5-year NEVI program duration to further solicit stakeholder input, refine and adjust strategies, and evaluate whether Commonwealth and national goals are being achieved. Activities in support of the Deployment Plan in 2023 will include targeted stakeholder outreach and the release of a Request for Information (RFI)to secure feedback from EV charger developers, potential site hosts, and other interested parties. Third parties will be used for the acquisition, installation, upgrading, and operations and maintenance of publicly accessible EV charging infrastructure.VDOT will develop an initial competitive funding opportunity that seeks developers to install or upgrade DCFC infrastructure along Virginia's AFCs in accordance with federal guidelines. NEVI program funds will offset up to 80%of project costs while the third-party entity will be responsible for the non-federal share. A scorecard will be developed that describes the minimum standards criterion which applicants will need to satisfy, including public access, charger power levels, number of chargers, maximum distance between charging stations, cost of acquisition and installation, and expected user cost of operation. The initial build out of EV charging infrastructure is anticipated to occur during 2023 and 2024. The goal of the Deployment Plan in these first two years is to achieve Fully Built Out (FBO)status for all AFCs in the state. FBO designation requires EV charging infrastructure: (1) be installed every 50 miles along the AFCs and within 1 travel mile of the AFCs unless a discretionary exception has been granted; (2) includes 29 I Page at least four 150 kilowatt(kW) DCFC stations capable of simultaneously charging four EVs; and (3) has minimum station power capacity at or above 600 kW and supports at least 150 kW per port simultaneously. Once FBO designation has been achieved for Virginia,VDOT will be given flexibility to allocate NEVI in priority locations throughout the state outside of AFC sites. During the years 2023 to 2026,VDOT anticipates seeking projects for Phase 2 NEVI funding focused on expanding the charging network beyond AFCs. In the State Plan,VDOT identified 13 locations for implementation of NEVI funds in the first year of the program,as outlined in Table 6. 12 of the proposed sites are new construction;only one of the proposed sites would entail upgrading of a charging station to meet AFC requirements. It is of note that this location, ID 198938, is close proximity to Virginia Beach. However,this site does not fulfill requirements of designation of 1-264 as an AFC, nor does it effectively serve the population of Virginia Beach. Table 6.

Through this lawmaking,Virginia joined 12 other states and the District of Columbia in adopting California Low Emissions Vehicle (LEV) and Zero Emission Vehicle (ZEV) standards under the Advanced Clean Cars II (ACC II) regulation,which significantly strengthens regulations on tailpipe emissions on all new light and medium duty vehicles in Virginia.The law requires that beginning in 2024, an increasing percentage of new vehicles sold to Virginia dealerships be Zero Emissions Vehicles (ZEV),which will primarily BEV and PHEVs, or approximately 8% of new vehicles in 2025. These new standards also enact more stringent vehicle emissions standards for 30 I Page criteria pollutants and greenhouse gas emissions for all new gasoline and diesel passenger cars, light- duty trucks and medium duty vehicles beginning in 2024 (Model Year 2025).

Estimate of EV Population (Stock) in Virginia Beach under Clean Cars Virginia Clean Cars Virginia requires that between 12 to 35%of all new vehicles sold to Virginia dealerships be ZEV starting in 2026, increasing by 6-8% per year until reaching 100%ZEV sales in 2035. Under this rulemaking, PHEVs will qualify as a ZEV, however PHEVs cannot account for more than 20%of total ZEV vehicle sales. Clean Cars Virginia will not go into effect until Model Year 2024 vehicles in Virginia. This legislation will have significant impact on the deployment on EVs across Virginia, including Virginia Beach.As discussed in greater detail in Chapter 4 and shown in Figure 12, preliminary projections suggest as many as 15,000 EVs in Virginia Beach by 2030 and 40,000 by 2035, up from 1,500 today. EV Rebate Program In 2021,Virginia passed legislation related to EV and charging infrastructure deployment. HB 1979 created an incentive for the purchase or lease of any new and used EV through the Electric Vehicle Rebate Program.Virginia residents can qualify for a $2,500 rebate; LMI buyer requirements can receive an additional$2,000 rebate for a new EV and $500 for a used EV.XX'X This program is currently unfunded. 31 I Page In addition, HB 2282 was enacted with requires the State Corporation Commission (SCC)to deliver a report detailing utility programs that can accelerate transportation electrification,which was published in February 2022.SB 1223 amended VCEA to require a statewide analysis of charging infrastructure necessary to support a net-zero transportation sector by 2045. Lastly,SB 575 directs state fleet managers to use total cost of ownership(TCO) calculations to determine vehicle procurement beginning in 2023,which significantly increases the likelihood of BEV deployment across the state fleet. Volkswagen Settlement In 2016,as a result of the settlement between the U.S. Department of Justice, U.S. Environmental Protection $14 million — EV charging network Agency (EPA), and Volkswagen,the Commonwealth of Virginia received $14 million — Electric transit buses over$93 million to implement projects The Volkswagen and programs to mitigate air pollution Environmental S14 million — Port electrification project from transportation (Figure 13).The Mitigation Trust Volkswagen Mitigation Trust, $93.6 million administered by the Virginia $20 million — Electric school buses Department of Environmental Quality, invests these funds in programs and projects to reduce transportation air $20million — Clean Air Communities Program pollution caused by Volkswagen's alleged violation. $4.68 million — Administrative costs $6.92 million — un'llocated Of the total Virginia Mitigation Trust funding, $14 million is dedicated to Figure 13.Allocation of Virginia's VW Settlement funding support installation of a network of Level 2 and DCFC EV charging stations in the Commonwealth with a focus along highly trafficked interstate corridors and in metropolitan areas, primarily in areas of Northern Virginia. Additionally,the Volkswagen Mitigation Trust supports spending nearly$20 million for Class 8 local freight trucks, Class 4- 7 local freight trucks, Class 4-8 buses, airport ground support equipment, and associated EV charging infrastructure.'" Dominion Energy Programs In Fall 2020, Dominion Energy Virginia launched the Smart Charging Infrastructure Pilot(SCIP) program to support EV adoption in Virginia as a result of SCC-approved investments through the GTSA.The SCIP provided rebates for qualifying EV charging station infrastructure and installation to support charging opportunities in multifamily dwellings,workplace charging applications, publicly accessible DCFC charging opportunities, as well as charging for public transit agencies transitioning to battery-electric buses.The SCIP program began implementation in 2021 and is operational through December 31, 2022; as of June 20, 2022,the program was fully subscribed for 2022. 32 ( Page In 2021, Dominion Energy began the EV Charger Rewards Program to help offset the cost of installation of a Level 2 residential charger. Under this Program, residents who enroll in the program are eligible to receive a one-time$125 rebate for installations of a Level 2 charger that was activation on or after March 1, 2021. Participants will be required to limit their charging during periods of peak energy demand and will receive an additional$40 annual incentive for program enrollment.Additional programs as expected to be implemented by Dominion in 2023 are provided in Chapter 6. In 2019, Dominion Energy also began the Electric School Bus program, providing 50 electric school buses and charging infrastructure to 15 school districts in Virginia. In 2022, Dominion Energy announced that to support the implementation of the EPA Clean School Bus Program,they will provide utility coordination for school districts, including grid upgrades, construction,and charger installation. Dominion Energy will also cover the maintenance of the charger for 15 years and 50%of the cost of the battery warranty for those school districts who enter into a Participation Agreement. Other State Actions The Commonwealth's legislative branch implemented several actions in 2020 specific to promoting the adoption of EVs and support electric vehicle charging infrastructure operation. First, select state government agencies are now permitted to locate and operate retail,fee-based EV charging stations at their facilities and lands,thus providing publicly accessible charging stations opportunities.Second, Virginia Code now prohibits common interest community associations from prohibiting the installation of an EV charging station within the boundaries of a member's designated parking space,or, in the case of a property owners association,the boundaries of an owner's property. Provisions for installation and removal are also prescribed to support proper charging station installation. In addition,the Virginia Department of Motor Vehicles is permitted to lower registration fees for EV as an incentive for EV ownership.A summary of key provisions can be found in Table 7 below.

Registrations in EVs in the city have grown significantly over the previous five years (Figure 15). Given the growth rate in EVs,there should be over 3,000 EVs in Virginia Beach by the close of 2023. Tesla currently accounts for over 50%of the registered EVs in the city(Figure 15), however as more vehicles become available in the coming years,this market share is expected to drop significantly. 700 600 S00 400 35, 300 191 197 200 83 100 25 52 2011 2012 2013 2014 2015 2016 2017 2018 2019 2020 2021 2022 Figure 15.

Areas with higher rates of adoption to date may be an indicator of where increased adoption of EVs will be highest in the near term. 37 I Page Charger Deployment in Virginia Beach As of 2022,there are a total of 137 plugs at 57 public charging plazas in Virginia Beach. More than half of these charging plazas are at restricted access locations,such as hotels or apartment complexes. Level 2 chargers account for about 90%of the 137 plugs,while DCFC account for the other 10%. Figure 17 shows the locations of existing charging stations in the city,with blue dots representing Level 2 chargers and red dots representing DCFC charging stations.As shown in,Virginia Beach has an estimated 120 Level 2 charging ports and 17 DCFC charge ports.XXX'However,when excluding ports that fi- 1:111011111111111 111"._111-141a.".*--;r"-^4111e,_:-__ ‘ elit . . .A......1, lif tifitseE..-• ea."4'414k0 latitege., mar of t.+ fir[ lc. �♦,r'•M j 1t ~► tt• ft.trait *SAS It: el? -44.1eirlirm, 0 _lb- at.,tr.. 4104/4 0—., 04:10411.- 4. 4 I I IA01 .0 O. „Ai ` .4., V N."'rat ..+�.. v �`i% e 404k ai ‘ - -.I 1 I4 4 I 1 I re 4 liti taSji r a'v I e 4 ,..,...„, • Ai! ti+ Station Type qt;Pigi? •DCFC•12 _ "- ' Figure 17.

Location of Public Ports(Left), New Public Plugs by Year(Right) In development of this plan,students from the VBCPS Environmental Studies Program completed a survey and inventory of all publicly available charging stations listed in the DOE AFDC and plugshare.com. Importantly,the students found that many of the stations listed in the national inventories were either not functional or were not easily found and reported as non-existent. This identifies the need more for more accurate data collection for public access, proper maintenance standards and for ordinance which requires proper signage. Actions to address these issues are identified in Chapter 6. Greenhouse Gas Emissions from EVs EVs serve as a critical solution towards decarbonization of the transportation sector, as a part of overall state strategies to reduce emissions across industries. EVs already provide significant reductions in GHG emissions when charged using today's conventional generation mix(Figure 19).According to the Union of Concerned Scientists, EVs charged in Dominion Energy Virginia's service territory have an equivalent greenhouse gas emissions per mile of a gasoline car that obtains an 85 miles-per-gallon (mpg)fuel economy."'" In 2020 Dominion Energy,the majority electric utility in Virginia, set a goal of Net Zero Emissions by 2050.As Dominion Energy and other utilities continue to shift their generation towards renewables in the coming years,the environmental benefits of EVs in comparison to ICE vehicles will significantly increase. Manufacturing of an EV can be thought of as the production of the necessary raw materials, manufacturing of component parts, and the vehicle assembly process. EV production can be more 39 I Page emissions-intensive than an ICE vehicle due primarily to the lithium,cobalt, and copper CO2 per Mile (grams) requirements for battery manufacturing.x"X' Though EV production can be higher-emitting, total well-to-wheel emissions,or emissions over 300 the entire lifecycle of the vehicle,are lower for 250 280 EVs than gasoline vehicles.The overall lower 200 emissions impact of EVs can be attributed to 150 much lower impact from operational use and 100 83 maintenance over the lifetime of the vehicle. In addition, as the source of electricity becomes Electric Vehicles in National Average of increasingly powered by renewable energy Virginia Beach Gasoline Cars generation,the environmental impact of EV operation decreases over time." Figure 19. BEV Emissions vs. ICEV in Virginia Beach Acknowledging the environmental impact of EV today in grams of CO2 per mile traveled production,the EV supply chain is innovating to ensure well-to-wheel EV emissions continue to decline. Improvements in manufacturing are underway to ensure that the impacts from the battery production and the end of life, including the collection, recycling, energy recovery, and disposal of the vehicle and batteries,are less emissions intensive. For example, EV battery manufacturers are pursuing new technologies,such as sodium-ion and solid-state batteries,to improve energy density, reduce costs,and rely less on limited critical materials.x As the EV market continues to grow,the market for these innovations also matures. EV Planning in Virginia Beach Planning and implementation of EVs and charging infrastructure programs is still in early stages in Virginia Beach. The text below highlights these key efforts at the time of this writing. City of Virginia Beach Comprehensive Plan In 2018,the City of Virginia Beach published the City of Virginia Beach Comprehensive Plan—It's Our Future:A Choice, that outlined a vision for City planning and development, including a Master Transportation Plan and Environmental Stewardship Framework.The Master Transportation Plan identifies numerous opportunities to improve public and multi-modal transportation infrastructure and reduce vehicle miles traveled (VMT), however there was no explicit description of any actions related to EV deployment.The Environmental Stewardship Framework provides recommendations for improvements in surface and groundwater management, land conservation, expansion of green spaces and coastal management strategies—including sea level rise, flooding, and hazard mitigation practices. Transportation nor GHG reduction strategies are described in this plan. Resort Area Mobility Plan In June 2022,the City of Virginia Beach launched a micro-mobility project, partnering with FreeBee to provide residents and visitors to the oceanfront a new free public transportation option. As part of the City's Resort Area Mobility Plan (RAMP),the City is funding a one-year pilot project that will provide five 4U ( Page Tesla Model X EVs,which will operate seven days a week,from 11:00 a.m.to 11:00 p.m.The$550,000 project is funded through the Parking Enterprise Fund. Virginia Beach is also a registrant to the Climate Mayors Electric Vehicle Purchasing Collaborative,which helps to leverage the buying power of Climate Mayors cities to reduce the costs of EVs and charging infrastructure for all U.S. cities, counties, courts, school districts, state governments, and public universities, thereby accelerating fleet transitions. However, at this time Virginia Beach has not made any commitments to participating in fleet electrification through this program, nor is it a member of the City Mayors Network."' Hampton Roads Transportation Planning Organization Virginia Beach is a voting member of the Hampton Roads Transportation (HRT) Planning Organization, which oversees the development of both the short-and long-term transportation planning of the region.

Hampton Roads Transportation Planning Organization Jurisdictions In response to the announcement of the CFI community charging grant program, HRTPO has begun to develop a strategy for where electric vehicle charging infrastructure may be deployed in the region.'" This has included a partial mapping of public DC Fast Chargers in the HRTPO planning area, and identification of disadvantaged communities. 41 I Page Hampton Roads Transit Hampton Roads Transit (HRT) provides public transit service in Virginia Beach, including bus, light rail, ferry, ridesharing and paratransit service. In addition to Virginia Beach, HRT also serves Chesapeake, Hampton, Newport News and Portsmouth. In 2021, HRT announced that it would be deploying six all- electric transit buses to service Route 20,which is a 22-block stretch that connects downtown Norfolk with the Virginia Beach Oceanfront.The buses are charged at the HRT 18th St Maintenance shop, located in Norfolk. This project was funded by the Hampton Roads Regional Transportation Program and Hampton Roads Regional Transportation Fund,which were created in 2020 through HB 1726, providing $20 million per year to develop, maintain, and improve a core regional network of transit routes in the HRTPO region, including Virginia Beach. Military Fleet Electrification Virginia Beach is also home to extensive military installations, including Naval Air Station (NAS) Oceana, and Joint Expeditionary Base-Little Creek(JEB-LC),employing 30,000 active personnel.'"In 2022,the U.S. Navy and Marine Corps announced that it planned to acquire 100%zero-emission vehicles by 2035, including 100%zero-emission light-duty vehicle acquisitions by 2027.'""The Department of the Navy (DON)will also pursue electrification of tactical vehicles used in combat, in addition to its non-tactical vehicle goals.The U.S. military operates approximately 174,000 non-tactical vehicles across its five service branches. Electrification of non-tactical military vehicles in Virginia Beach will require significant charging infrastructure,which may present opportunities for collaboration between the City and local military operators for strategic deployment of charging station infrastructure. Virginia Beach Public Schools As of 2019,Virginia Beach City Public Schools (VBCPS) had 735 active school buses and 314 vehicles in its fleet.The VBCPS bus fleet is comprised of buses with model years from 1996 through 2013 (note that although the replacement cycle for buses is 15 years,VBCPS does have buses in service that are at 17 years old). In 2019 VBCPS published a GHG inventory,which included progress towards the introduction of EV charging stations at all schools within 15 years. VBCPS has already made significant progress regarding electrification of school buses.There are currently eight Proterra electric school buses operating in Virginia Beach,which were funded in partnership with Dominion Energy. Dominion provided all required charging infrastructure to enable bus operation and long-term agreements for charging station operation and maintenance were established. These buses have been in operation for one full school year and VBCPS intends to replace six internal combustion engine school buses with electric busses annually moving forward. In addition,there are currently seven BEV and PHEV light-duty vehicles operating in the school vehicle fleet. There are currently four charging locations consisting of 7 charging ports to support the electric bus fleet.The school system is currently undertaking a feasibility study of installation of additional charging infrastructure at six facilities to support electric bus deployment, and seven sites to support deployment of other electric fleet vehicles. 42 1 Page CHAPTER 3. COMMUNITY PERSPECTIVES ON CHARGING This chapter summarizes results of a public engagement survey distributed through SpeakUpVB.com to gauge community perspectives on electric vehicles and charging infrastructure. Methodology A public engagement survey was administered to community members in Virginia Beach in January 2023. The survey was distributed in two forms, one targeted to community residents and one targeted to local businesses and was offered translated into 10 different languages. For both surveys, an invitation to participate in the survey was sent to a stakeholder email list and posted on the City's website. In total, 1,340 individuals responded to the resident survey and 40 individuals responded to the business survey. Questions in both surveys were a mix of multiple choice and open text format. Survey respondents were able to remain anonymous or could provide contact information if desired. Survey responses included in this assessment did not include any personal identifying information. The survey was distributed through multiple channels throughout January and February 2023, including traditional media, social media and online communications. An overview of methods can be found in Figure 21. PRESS RELEASE January 13 Coverage on WTKR and WAVY IACEBOOK Postings to city page January 13&26.

Survey Results The surveys (resident and business) were used to understand how residents and businesses currently operate their vehicles, knowledge of and interest in EVs, and preferences as to where charging stations might be installed in the future. Note the resident survey was not a representative sample of the Virginia Beach population. For example, 99%of respondents own a car,while 30%currently own an EV. Resident Survey For the resident survey, responses were disaggregated by several categorical variables.Table 10 provides summary statistics of survey respondents. As shown, survey respondents were not a representative sample of residents in Virginia Beach. For example, 99% of respondents currently own a car. These descriptive qualities are used below to segment responses and generate useful insights. 44 ' Page Table 10.

Respondents of the business survey were also asked how familiar they are with electric vehicles. The responses are near evenly split between very familiar(38%),somewhat familiar(31%),and familiar(24%). Only 6% of respondents are not at all familiar with electric vehicles. The responses are shown in Figure 28. Figure 28.

As noted in Table 11, majority of respondents are not interested in converting their fleet to electric vehicles (76%) or installing an electric vehicle charger for public use (68%). When asked, the PRIMARY barrier to converting their fleet was identified to be electric vehicles are too expensive (35%). 27% of respondents selected other, including concerns about charging time, range, and costly repairs. 18% are unsure that an EV can meet operational requirements, 12% are concerned about the access to chargers, 5% are concerned about vehicle maintenance, and 3% feel that employees would be hesitant to use an electric vehicle. Similarly, 35% of respondents also selected too expensive when asked to identify the PRIMARY barrier to installing a charging station at their place of business. Other was the next most selected by 29% of respondents, which included concerns about the space required. 10% are concerned about equipment maintenance, 10%don't know how to get one installed, 10%said that it is a decision of the property manager, and 6% of respondents feel that customers and/or employees will not use the charging station. At the end of both surveys, respondents were presented with the opportunity to expand on any other information in regard to electric vehicles and/or charging stations to assist with City planning efforts. Listed below are some of the key themes that emerged from responses. • There is a need for a better selection and pricing of EVs as well as a mix of charging options. • Investment in electric vehicles and charging infrastructure should not come from taxpayer dollars. • There is concern that government subsidies will lead to higher taxes and utility bills. • Charging stations should be paid for by private companies, similar to gas stations, not the City. • Installing charging stations require permission from the landlord. • There are concerns about how charging will impact electric bills and the reliability of the grid. • Charging stations need to be accessible to all. Locations mentioned included: A. Near tourist spots D. Schools B. Attractions E. City parking garages C. Close to the highway 49 ' Page CHAPTER 4. CURRENT AND FUTURE CHARGING NEEDS This chapter describes the current and future of charging needs for residents of Virginia Beach, including additional requirements of tourist populations. Key Assessment Findings includes: • Insufficient DCFC plugs today. NREL's EVI-Pro Lite tool suggests a need for 38 public Level 2, 18 public DCFC, and 44 workplace plugs to meet the demand of today's electric vehicle population. After removing restricted access plugs (e.g., plugs restricted to hotel patrons),Virginia Beach has sufficient Level 2 plugs (47 today) but insufficient DCFC plugs (only 10 unrestricted plugs today). No data exist on the number of workplace plugs currently in the city. • Gap in 2025. By 2025, in the Current Pathway Virginia Beach needs an additional 38 Level 2 plugs and 28 DCFC plugs beyond what exists city today. • Gap in 2040. By 2040,Virginia Beach needs up to 4,300 Level 2 plugs and 1,800 DCFC plugs based on the Current Pathway. Current Charging Infrastructure Virginia Beach has a total of 137 plugs at 57 public charging plazas. More than half of these charging plazas are at restricted access locations,such as hotels or apartment complexes. Level 2 chargers account for about 90%of the 137 plugs,while DCFC account for the other 10%. This level of charging is slightly below recommended charging deployment. For Virginia Beach, a city with an electric vehicle population of 2,267 vehicles,the Department of Energy recommends a total of 154 public L2 plugs and 34 DCFC plugs.3 Note these recommended values do not include the sizeable tourism population (see Influence of Tourist Population section below).The U.S. averages 305 chargers per million population,while Virginia Beach is at 300 chargers per million.)' As shown in Figure 17 (Chapter 2), public charging stations are concentrated in a few key locations of the city—namely along 1-264 and in the Oceanfront Resort Area. Of the 57 charging plazas in Virginia Beach, 28 are networked chargers—meaning they connect to the cloud and transmit data to a centralized server.The other 29 are "dumb" chargers, many of which are restricted to residents of a multifamily dwellings (MUDs),customers of a store, or guests of hotels.Tesla is the most common electric vehicle service provider(EVSP)for public chargers, accounting for 16 sites and 46 plugs. Figure 31 summarizes information about public stations in Virginia Beach as of 2023. The chargers are distributed across location types, including retail, automotive dealerships, convenience stores and hotels (top left panel). Charging deployment grew between 2012 and 2018 but declined during the COVID-19 pandemic (top right panel).The majority of charging plazas have one or two plugs (bottom panel). Appendix B provides further details about Virginia Beach's charging stations. 3 According to DOE's EVI-Pro Lite tool:https://afdc.energy.gov/evi-pro-Iite 50 I Page Locations of Public Plugs New Public Plugs Installed ic Hotel 41 Leisure DestinationII 25 9 Parking Garage/Lot II a Open to All 20 •Tesla • Restricted Access 15 Non-Tesla Medical Campus 21 Retail 10 3 18 Multi-Unit Dwelling I 5 11 3I3 2 fl © 1 ill la Business Office I 0 N m dt u1 CD N 00 Ql O e—I N r I e-I r I e-1 r-I e--I r-1 e1 N N N O O O O O O O O O O O 0 25 50 75 100 CNNNNINININNICNININ # Plugs per Charging Plaza ■ 1 ■2 3 ■4 8 DCFC 50% 17% Level 2 16% 0% 10% 20% 30% 40% 50% 60% 70% 80% 90% 100% Figure 31.

Charging utilization directly corresponds to the financial viability of a charging station.As electric vehicle populations rise, charging utilization typically increases. • Energy use per Plug per Session. Fleet chargers have the highest energy use per plug per session.These chargers include transit buses which have mostly high-powered charging. • Charging Time.The charging time for vehicles ranges from 1.1 to 4.7 hours,on average,with the longest charge time being at mobility hubs. • Plugged in Time. Plugged in time-the hours a vehicle is connected to a charger- is 2 to 5 times the charging time,suggesting vehicles are commonly plugged in but not charging. Table 12.

Inputs and assumptions in the EVI-Pro Lite tool are in Appendix C and detailed charger projections can be found in Appendix D. Number of Plugs Figure 33 shows the estimated charging needs in Virginia Beach for the Current and Alternative Pathways from today until 2040.Workplace Level 2 chargers have the highest need across the two Pathways,followed by public Level 2 then DCFC. This analysis provides several insights: • Insufficient DCFC plugs today. NREL's EVI-Pro Lite tool suggests a need for 38 public Level 2, 18 public DCFC, and 44 workplace plugs to meet the demand of today's electric vehicle population. After removing restricted access plugs(e.g., plugs restricted to hotel patrons),Virginia Beach has sufficient Level 2 plugs (47 today) but insufficient DCFC plugs (only 10 unrestricted plugs today). No data exist on the number of workplace plugs currently in the city. • Gap in 2025. By 2025, in the Current Pathway Virginia Beach needs an additional 38 Level 2 plugs and 28 DCFC plugs beyond what exists in the city today.This equates to roughly 10-15 new charging plazas. • Gap in 2040.

In the future,the number of tourists who drive personal electric vehicles or who rent electric vehicles upon arrival will likely rise at a rate commensurate with the rest of Virginia Beach.This will require the installation of additional charging infrastructure at tourist destinations, like hotels and oceanfront parking lots,as well as increased deployment of residential chargers at rental homes and other vacation properties. The number of tourists in Virginia Beach varies greatly throughout the year,with the majority of adult visitors traveling to the city in June and July. The peak average daily tourist population in Virginia Beach is in July,with an average of 20,359 visitors per day.There are 146 hotel properties in Virginia Beach, accounting for 11,079 available hotel rooms. The trend in hotel occupancy follows a similar pattern to 20,000.O, 15,000.00 a 10,000.0U S,oa .« _ .. I_-L �.t.,r:! ;, • May Jun July Aug Sept Oct ..

Upper Bound Projections for Tourists The following projections provide an upper bound of potential charging requirements to support tourist populations in Virginia Beach. Actual charging demand of the tourist population in Virginia Beach will likely be lower than the scenarios presented below given that infrastructure is typically built for average (not peak) demand. Figure 35 shows the upper bound of additional EV chargers that will be required at hotels in Virginia Beach through 2040, assuming tourist electrification mimics the Current Pathway trajectory presented in Figure 32 above.This estimate uses the aggressive assumption that all tourists who drive electric vehicles have access to a dedicated parking space with a Level 2 charger.This is in line with the national average of 1.24 parking spaces per hotel room.'"This estimate is an upper bound since not all tourists will require Level 2 charging of their vehicle; many visitors may require only Level 1 charging,will utilize public charging sites, or may not require vehicle charging at all during their visit. For comparison, hotels in Virginia Beach have 41 Level 2 charging ports today;the upper bound of Level 2 EV chargers required at hotels in Virginia Beach in 2040 is 1,193. The geographic distribution of hotels in Virginia Beach is shown in Figure 36. Hotels are primarily concentrated in the resort area. While many of the chargers deployed at these hotels in the future may be reserved for hotel guests and staff, it can also be expected that hotels providing parking to non-hotel guests will also have public-facing chargers available. Taking into account the hotel patrons that are projected to be provided with EV charging at hotel parking facilities,this leaves an estimated total adult visitor population of 10,510 that will require publicly accessible charging or will require residential charging capabilities at rental properties.

Distribution of Hotels in Virginia Beach Publicly accessible charging for these visitors is expected to be primarily located along highways and major arterials,as well as at central tourist destinations,such as the convention center and resort area parking facilities. Using a similar aggressive projection,the upper bound of EV charging need assumes that all adult visitors will drive a personal vehicle. It is assumed that EV deployment for visitors will correlate to the Current Pathway for Virginia Beach in Figure 31 in the prior section above.This would equate to an additional 5,550 electric vehicles in Virginia Beach attributed to visitors by 2040. It is estimated that by 2040,the city would require 161 additional public Level 2 charging plugs and 44 additional DCFC plugs—beyond those today—to support remaining tourism needs in the city. Cumulative new public level 2 and DCFC chargers for tourists are shown in Figure 37. 59 ' Page It should be noted that these figures represent the upper bound of required additional EV charging in Virginia Beach to support tourist populations beyond the projections of EV charger deployment required to support the resident population of Virginia Beach. Strategic placement of EV charging infrastructure in high volume traffic areas and tourist destinations that can also serve the residents in Virginia Beach, is expected to reduce the volume of additional chargers needed in the city in future years. 200 no v 150 a a) 100 50 AMP AMP Mr 0 I • uII '1, , ', 1- '1, 'tit 1, ti1 ',�0 ',�'� �ti ,�� 0) 03 ,�(° 0) 0) ',�°) 0 '1, ', '1, ', ', '1, '1, '1, ', '1, 1, 'ti0 'LO ', 'LO 'y0 ', 0 'Level 2 Plugs •DCFC Plugs Figure 37.Total New Level 2 and DCFC Plugs:Non-Hotel Tourism Alternative Scenario An alternative scenario is presented below in which all tourist populations in Virginia Beach utilize publicly available Level 2 and DCFC charging stations, rather than utilizing chargers located at hotels or 700 600 a 500 a a, 400 z a, > 300 E 200 100 0 _ di. _ IMP - - - SS ■ 1 111 '17 ,LR 'Lh ti� 'L1 '10 .10 �O �7 �'L '5'� 'gh '��° 1 'Q' '°� � 'LO ,ti0 'O ,0 'O 'O '0 '0 ,0 ,0 .0 ,se 'ti0 ,ti0 ,ti0 ,LO 'ti0 'LO ■!evel 2 Plugs ■DCFC Plugs Figure 38.Cumulative New Public Chargers—No Hotel Scenario 60 I Page vacation properties. In this scenario, 50% of the visitors are not expected to require EV charging during their visit, representing those travelers who travel less than 100 miles to Virginia Beach, day-trip visitors who do not stay overnight,and travelers who utilize a rental car during their stay in the city. In this scenario it is estimated that by 2040,the city would require 539 additional public Level 2 charging plugs and 118 additional DCFC plugs. Cumulative new public level 2 and DCFC chargers are shown in Figure 38. Distribution of publicly available chargers to support tourist populations are expected to be concentrated in those areas that are designated as short-term rental districts in the City,which includes the Resort Area District and Sandbridge, in addition to along major roadways, primarily I-264.

PRIORITY CHARGING LOCATIONS To better understand areas of Virginia Beach with the highest need for publicly accessible chargers,this chapter uses a spatial analysis,which combines several factors into two single,weighted scores.When paired with the public engagement results expressed in earlier chapters,this analysis help identify priority charging locations. Methodology This study identified the need for two single,weighted CITIES THAT USED A SIMILAR EV scores to determine the need for public electric vehicle SCORING PROCESS charging: a score to locate optimal placement of Level 2 • San Antonio,TX chargers and a score to locate optimal placement of • Contra Costa County, CA Level 3 chargers.These scores identify census block • Somerville, MA groups in Virginia Beach of high priority for charging • Berkeley,CA infrastructure and can be aligned with other criteria such • Alexandria,VA as economic development regions to select block groups for early installation of electric vehicle charging stations.As indicated in the call-out box to the right, similar methodologies were used to locate electric vehicle charging infrastructure in other jurisdictions. In addition to the Level 2 and DCFC block group scoring,this study identified municipal properties located within priority block groups. These sites are presented subsequent to the Level 2 and DCFC Index scoring sections below and identify sites that may be prioritized for construction of public Level 2 charging infrastructure.The sites are shown by location type. Level 2 Charging Index This index identifies census block groups in Virginia Beach where charging infrastructure placement can aid individuals who need to park their cars for longer periods of time.The index is comprised of: (1) number of multi-unit dwellings, (2) number of renters, (3) length of commutes made by cars, (4) population with income under$75,000, (5)existing Level 2 EV charger access, (6) number of long dwell time locations. Several of the factors which have been integrated into this assessment correlate with criteria which prioritize LMI populations, including number of MUDs, number of renters, and household income. As annotated in Table 15 block group-level data on each factor was collected from U.S. Census data, data provided by Virginia Beach,vehicle registrations provided by the Virginia Department of Motor Vehicles, and the U.S. DOE's Alternative Fuel Data Center. 62 I Page Table 15.Weights and Rationales to Develop Four Level 2 Composite Score Maps Indicator Rationale for Factor Factor Weighting Residents of multi-unit dwellings(MUD)have less access to at- Multi-Unit home charging.These"garage orphans"are a relatively large 16.7% Dwellings a segment of potential electric vehicle adopters who are locked out of the market.

Locations` ------------------------- a U.S.Census Bureau 2022 b U.S. DOE Station Locator and Plugshare.com Data provided by Virginia Beach Department of Planning Next,this data was weighted using a weighted mean methodology and compiled into scoring maps.The composite scoring system results in a unique score for each block group that represents the charging need, as shown in the score map in Figure 41. Weighted Mean description:To calculate the two indices, L2 and DCFC,a weighted mean value for each block group of all the indicators listed was calculated. Each indicator is assigned a weight factor.Then for each block group each indicator value is multiplied by that weight factor and then added together to produce an output weighted mean. Level 2 Results Figure 40 shows six maps that display each individual factor. Colors are grouped into five shades using the Jenks natural breaks classification method (ESRI 2020),with the highest scoring 20%of block groups shown as the darkest shade and the lowest scoring 20%of block groups shown as the lightest shade. To 63 I Page help identify disadvantaged communities in the city, block groups outlined in red represent those block groups that have been designated as Opportunity Zones. \ , --- k .- ......tidb, 111-haft... - A ) -,-- 44, ii ltir Mr- diA If# es via '1111/4 &trk41.:°41filkti ( .%eat,viVrAig4gritt ir'tiONVAtINPrelt-all (+mot ♦ P" si lI t,Oiepil-1,14A, 4' --4i± .li tits- �liVri•♦ -�t►y w.

ACTIONS FOR VIRGINIA BEACH This chapter presents a set of goals, recommendations, and actions for the short, medium, and long term in Virginia Beach (Figure 48).The six goals provide an aspirational vision of what the City wants to achieve regarding electric vehicles and infrastructure.The 34 recommendations are broad categories of measures to achieve those goals. Finally,the 70 actions are discrete, proactive activities that support the recommendations. o GOALS RECOMMENDATIONS ACTIONS TIMING Achievable Broad approaches to Discrete activities Short: Today objectives to guide achieving the city's that support each Medium: This year the city's path in EV goals recommendation Long: Next year charging J` / Figure 48. Progression from Goals to Actions The role of the City is primarily to act as a facilitator.The City can remove barriers to deployment of charging infrastructure,engage with stakeholders, identify and pursue funding opportunities,establish programs that improve accessibility, and ensure economic development associated with this new sector. While charging will be provided primarily by the private sector,the City should establish partnerships and utilize funding programs to deploy charging infrastructure at municipal sites,filling infrastructure gaps to ensure equitable charger access,supporting tourism and enhancing resiliency. Implementing recommendations and actions in Chapter 6 requires City leadership but leverages expertise and investment from a wide set of stakeholders, including private citizens, community groups, small businesses, homeowner associations, Dominion Energy, EVSPs, ridesharing firms,small businesses, and others. As the Plan recommendations are implemented,the city should track progress on achievement of these goals and update the Plan to adapt to a rapidly changing transportation sector. 76 ! Page Goal 1: Ensure Charging is Available and Convenient How do we make charging easier? Goal 1 focuses on reducing or removing common barriers to constructing, owning, and operating new charging infrastructure.The City should use zoning, building codes, and permitting to enable the equitable build-out of charging infrastructure for residents and businesses.

Recommendation 1.A: Streamline Permitting Short Term As EV adoption grows,the number of residents and business requiring electrical upgrades to accommodate charging will grow significantly.There is currently no guidance on the City website for individuals and businesses seeking to install chargers, nor is there a mechanism for the City to track the number of EV charger permits.To expedite the permitting process,the City should develop an easy-to- follow permitting application for both residential and public EV charging installations. Action 1.A.1. Conduct mapping exercise and develop permitting checklist The City should undertake a mapping exercise to establish each step in the permitting process and identify the information required for residents, businesses, and government facility managers who seek to install EV charging infrastructure.This step-by-step mapping will result in a decision tree that demonstrates how each different type of chargers is permitted (e.g., by charger location, zoning district, 77 I Page EVSE type and quantity, site and architectural plans, proof of property ownership, license exemptions or other f k y.l nunix of Fairfax. \ rgInIa information).This information can be translated into an EV charger permit checklist and application posted to the City's amp�Mora•_...nos.,_��r._. 11.m7.1R orb f.1��r/a eir.uer.rope.!arm red rim j .rrar�....rryr b.��.4••..m....mr aml.....11M wort Hoots.A,.. website.This application can be integrated into the City of `. r :�""""''r""'--""�-'' Fl.rr.rr.bAY rAmour if es 7m..brlrm,.....,r./•`rr Virginia Beach Citizen Access System,which allows for the 7i 'orm, r"""•""""""`"""r`�'"'"A" <w.�w.r r.•r•�••....m.rr/7a.aww+mrr M•• .rm...

Figure 50. Example EVSE Permitting Checklist Action 1.A.2.Track permit applications The development of a specific permit application for installation of EV chargers in residential, business, and government applications will enable the City to understand the quantity, location,and type of chargers being deployed in Virginia Beach.The information is especially important since public charger websites like PlugShare and AFDC Station Locator lack locational information on some public and most residential and government chargers.This information can help the City better identify where EVs are being deployed in greater numbers and identify locations where infrastructure gaps exist.This information can also be used to understand the number of chargers being deployed in MUDs and LMI communities. Action 1.A.3. Expedite permitting and reduce permitting fees for EV charging Ordinance should be adopted that would enable an expedited adminstrative review process for EV charging stations.The City should also consider enacting reduced or waived fees associated with electrical, building, or sign permits for EV charging installations to reduce costs for residents and local businesses, as is being done in other jurisdictions in Virginia. The State of California maintains a comprehensive list of examples of municipal EV permitting rules and a supplemental guidebook on EV permitting. Recommendation 1.B: Adopt EVSE Design Standards Short Term A common barrier for charging EVs is the lack of standardization of charging equipment, including plug type, payment type, and protocols for communicating with the vehicle. To improve charger accessibility 78 I Page and customer utilization,the City can establish criteria for publicly supported EVSE (e.g.,those sponsored by the City at public sites or on municipal properties). Action 1.B.1. Integrate federal and state guidance on charging station design Best practice for charging station design integrates the following: • Open Charge Point Protocol (OCPP). For all charging stations, ensure chargers comply with the OPCC,a communication system between the charger and a central server(i.e., "network")that facilitates troubleshooting, maintenance, software updates, and charger utilization tracking.This flexibility is important as charging technology quickly evolves. • V2G certified. For bidirectional charging, ensure chargers are certified to UL 1741 standard. • Payment types. Charging stations should enable multiple forms of payment (ideally at least two forms), including credit card, smart phone applications, keyless fobs,and toll-free number payment support. As much as possible, stations should be open access and prohibit network subscription-based services. • ADA accessible. Charging station outlets and connector devices should be mounted to comply with state code and must comply with all relevant Americans with Disabilities Act(ADA) requirements (see Recommendation 1.D). • Charge cord design. Installation of dual-port pedestals with long retractable charge cords,when possible,to maximize charging capacity and provide access to greatest number of parking spaces and allowing both front-facing and rear-facing parking. Cords should be retractable or have a place to hang the connector and cord sufficiently above the pedestrian surface.Any cords connecting the charger to a vehicle shall be configured so that they do not cross a driveway, sidewalk, or passenger unloading area. • Damage protection. Charging station equipment should be protected by wheel stops or concrete filled bollards. • Charging spacing. Charging station equipment should not reduce the size of the parking space and should be placed in between parking spots (so that one station can reach multiple spots). • Pedestrian safety. Equipment mounted on pedestals, lighting posts, bollards, or other devices for on-street charging station should be designed and located as to not impede pedestrian travel or create trip hazards within the right-of-way. • Station availability. As site locations allow, public charging equipment should be available for use 24 hours a day, 7 days a week, 365 days a year. • Protection from extreme weather. Installation of NEMA-4 rated EV charging equipment in outdoor applications to ensure ruggedness and operation in extreme weather conditions. Charging pedestals should be elevated using a pad or legs. • Lighting. Site lighting to be provided where a charging station is installed. • Signage. Each charging station should have signage indicating the space is only for electric vehicle charging purposes.The following information should be posted at all EV charging stations: 1.Voltage and amperage levels; 2. Hours of operations if time limits or towaway 79IPage provisions are to be enforced by the property owner; 3. Usage fees;4. Safety information; 5. Contact information for reporting when the equipment is not operating or other problems. • Charge management. Charging stations should use managed charging solutions—including networked and smart charging capabilities—to support flexible and responsive electrical load management to better align charging needs with electrical system requirements. Such managed charging may also offer local electrical distribution grid integration opportunities in the future. • National Electrical Code. In 2021 Virginia adopted the 2017 National Electrical Code,which includes NFPA 70 Article 625, which provides criteria for Electric Vehicle Charging System installation.The City should ensure compliance with this standard for any charging installations in Virginia Beach.This document can also be used for development of definitions of terms for Virginia Beach codes (Action 1.C.1). The City should adopt standards that integrate federal guidance outlined in the federal rulemaking for National Electric Vehicle Infrastructure Standards and Requirements, in conjunction with using accepted standards that have been implemented in other jurisdictions. Projects funded through NEVI will require these minimum standards for operation, and additional guidance is expected for minimum standards for the CFI Community Charging grant program and other federal opportunities in 2023. Federal requirements include that all chargers must be ENERGY STAR certified. As new standards are developed at the federal,state and local level,the City should adopt amended ordinance to ensure compliance and advancement of EV charging technologies locally. .- Action 1.B.2. Coordinate charging station design standards The City should work with state regulators, HRTPO, and other municipalities across Virginia to coordinate charging station design standards to facilitate ease of implementation for private sector operators. Common operational and design criteria can also improve accessibility for all users by ensuring that chargers in different locations will operate in a simple, common format. This effort may be undertaken in conjunction with participation in the HRTPO 2050 Long-Range Transportation Plan process, which is currently under development.This effort may also help to establish equity needs and priority projects related to transportation electrification that can be implemented in Virginia Beach. Additionally,coordination on charging station design standards may occur in conjunction with a regional proposal to the CFI Community Charging Grant program,which will require federal standards to be incorporated into all stations constructed utilizing these funds. Recommendation 1.C: Adopt Zoning and Land Use provisions for Electric Vehicle Supply Equipment (EVSE) Short Term Public charging stations are accessory use in most instances. Explicit directives regarding where different types of charging stations (Level 1, Level 2, DCFC)are permitted can increase the efficiency by which new EV charging infrastructure can be installed. Providing this information to the public can not only 80 I Page clarify whether a type of charger can be installed but can also show that the City supports the deployment of public EV chargers by actively addressing the subject matter. Action 1.C.1. Adopt definition of EVSE terms for City code The City does not have any existing language in the municipal code in relation to electric vehicles. EV charging should be clearly classified and defined in all zoning regulations. The City should develop clear definitions of terms related to EV charging infrastructure to enable the development of ordinance related to EV charging.Table 18 below provides examples of language that should be adopted by the City. Table 18. EV Charging Ordinance Definition Examples Term Example Language Electric Vehicle Any vehicle that operates,either partially or exclusively,on electrical energy from the grid,or an off-board source,which is stored on-board for motive purpose."Electric vehicle"includes:(1)a battery EV;(2)a plug-in hybrid EV; (3)a neighborhood EV;and (4) a medium-speed EV. Electric Vehicle A vehicle parking space served by an electrical component assembly or cluster of Charging Space component assemblies designed and intended to transfer electric energy by conductive or inductive means from the electric grid or other off-board electrical source to a battery or other energy storage device within a vehicle that operates, partially or exclusively, on electric energy. Charging Levels The standardized indicators of electrical force,or voltage,at which an EV's battery is recharged.The terms 1,2,and DCFC are the most common EV charging levels,and include the following specifications: Level 1 is considered slow charging;Level 2 is considered medium charging; DCFC is considered fast or rapid charging. Electric Vehicle Structures,machinery,and equipment necessary and integral to support an EV. Infrastructure Electric Vehicle An EV charging space that is(1)privately owned and restricted access(e.g.,single-family Charging Station home,designated employee parking)or(2) publicly owned and restricted(e.g.,fleet — Restricted parking with no access to the general public). Electric Vehicle An EV charging space that is(1)publicly owned and publicly available(e.g.,park, public Charging Space— library parking lot,on-street parking)or(2)privately owned and publicly available(e.g., Public shopping center parking, non-reserved parking in multi-family parking lots). Electric Vehicle Any marked parking space that identifies the use to be exclusively for the parking of an Parking Space EV. Action 1.C.2. Adopt zoning and land use provisions for EVSE The City should amend the Virginia Beach Code by adopting ordinance for application to Appendix A Article 2.—General Requirements and Procedures for all Districts,to establish requirements for the use of EV charging systems in residential and commercial applications for Level 1 and Level 2 charging. For 81 I Page DCFC installations,the City may wish to adopt specific provisions specific to each zoning district. EV charging in City historic districts will require specific attention to ensure that infrastructure additions, landscaping and related elements will be in harmony with their setting and environs. The City County ol I IIrl.,. should explicitly detail when EV charging is MEMORANDUM considered a primary use. EV chargers that are 111I 1.,M11/.1.1.1.1'10.11.1....111• III.1•N,111M 11/11.M1.1,..411. considered accessory use should be permitted in all llu..wn..mJ.•...pc,.al.

Fairfax County Zoning Provisions of accessory use are considered principal use,and for EV Charging therefore deemed to be a service station. Recommendation 1.D: Adopt EV Parking and Signage Requirements Short Term Adopting requirements for wayfinding signage, charger availability signage, operational procedures, regulations, and restrictions for charger accessibility ensure that EV owners can utilize existing charging stations at a higher rate. Parking regulations can prevent non-EV drivers from occupying EV parking spaces and can also prevent EV owners from occupying EV spaces for longer than required to charge their vehicle. Action 1.D.1. Adopt state EV parking space ordinance In 2022,Virginia adopted Code §46.2-1219.3. Parking of vehicles in parking spaces reserved for charging electric vehicles,"prohibits a person from parking a vehicle not capable of receiving an electric charge or not in the process of charging in a space clearly marked as reserved for charging EVs. A violation is subject to a civil penalty of no more than $25." It also requires signage be posted that denotes parking requirements and associated fines.The code enables local governments in Virginia to adopt ordinance enforcing the rule. The City should amend ordinance code Chapter 21. Article III. Division 1.Sec. 21-303 82 ' Page to that enforce EV charging parking restrictions in accordance with Virginia state regulations and make these criteria publicly available on the City website. Action 1.D.2. Adopt EV signage ordinance In 2013, FHWA published "Regulatory Signs for Electric Vehicle Charging and Parking Facilities" in its Manual on Uniform Traffic Control Devices for Streets and Highways (MUTCD)that sets signage standards to be used nationally on all public and private roads. These standards have been adopted in Virginia and have been incorporated into federal regulations for federally funded EV charging projects. Highway and directional signage for EV charging/Alternative Fuels on state-maintained roads must be certified by the VDOT. However,the City maintains flexibility regarding the implementation of how wayfinding and parking restriction signage is displayed. Establishing minimum criteria for how EV chargers should be designated can assist residents in accessing these sites locally.The City should amend ordinance code Appendix A. Article 2. Section B to establish minimum criteria for EV signage on both municipal and private property in Virginia Beach using the MUTCD as a guide or can develop its own signage requirements in accordance with local codes. Signage is particularly important for new EV owners who may be unfamiliar with charging practices. As part of this Plan, a group of VBPCS students conducted an inventory and review of all publicly listed EV chargers located in Virginia Beach. A number of the chargers that were listed in the inventory were not able to be found by the student team,which may have resulted from lack of adequate wayfinding signage for users. Action 1.D.3. Support parking minimum standards for new building construction To meet expanding EV charging demand,the City should encourage the state to adopt 2021 International Energy Conservation Code (IECC),which establishes the minimum number of parking spaces that must be equipped with EV chargers or must be constructed as EV Ready or EV Capable (Table 19). As outlined in Recommendation 3.D,the Virginia State legislature adopted minimum requirements for the number of EV chargers that must be available at for any new construction or major renovations of municipal buildings to service the municipal fleet.The City can also consider the adoption of more stringent parking minimum requirements at these sites. Table 19. EV Parking Readiness Levels EV-Ready Full circuit installations include 208/240 V,40-amp panel capacity, raceway,wiring, receptacle,and overprotection devices similar to a dryer circuit. EV-Capable Panel capacity and the conduit(raceway)are installed to accommodate the future build-out of EV charging with 208/240 V,40-amp circuits EV-Installed EV charging must be installed in new buildings that are constructed. 83 I Page The 2021 International Energy Conservation Code (IECC) has published requirements for construction of new MUD and commercial developments, as outlined in Table 20. The Commonwealth of Virginia will need to adopt these new IECC code provisions into the Uniform Statewide Building Code (USBC) in future years; however, anticipating these requirements in the future may serve to support actions in Virginia Beach.The Virginia USBC(IECC 2018) currently only requires a single 120 V outlet to be installed in a garage which may offer sufficient charging capability for some EV drivers who may only need passive, longer-duration charging("Level 1"). It is expected that the 2024 IECC will have further requirements for parking minimums,though proposed amendments are still under review. Table 20. EVSE Installed, EV-Ready Space and EV-Capable Space Requirements for New Commercial Buildings and Multi-Unit Dwellings—IECC 2021 Total Number of Minimum number of Spaces Minimum Number of EV- Minimum Number of EV- Parking Spaces with EVSE Installed' Ready Spaces Capable Spaces 1 1 1 - 2-10 1 2 - 11-15 1 2 1 16-19 1 2 2 21-25 2 3 2 26+ 5%of total parking spaces 10%of total parking 10%of total parking spaces spaces (a).Spaces that terminate with a Level 2 EVSE are considered EV-Ready Spaces and count toward the minimum number of EV- Ready Spaces. Action 1.D.4. Ensure ADA compliance for charging station design To ensure that EV chargers are accessible to all residents of Virginia Beach,City-sponsored chargers should meet accessibility criteria for individuals with disabilities.There are currently no established federal Americans with Disabilities Act(ADA)standards with specific application to EV charging installations, however design recommendations have been developed by the U.S. Access Board. In addition, many of the existing ABA accessibility standards are applicable to EV charging stations even in absence of specific provisions. While not formally adopted at the federal level, FHWA has identified these guidelines as a reference for station design for projects funded through the NEVI program. For existing parking facilities, it is not recommended that ADA compliant parking spaces be converted to EV charging spaces, as this will reduce access to both accessible parking and EV charging spaces. In addition, EV charging spaces have accessible communication requirements for charger operation, as well as requirements for connector and receptacle height, in addition to mobility requirements. As the City seeks partners for the installation of public charging infrastructure on municipal properties, projects must be required to meet all existing federal accessibility standards. RFP distribution should explicitly state that proposers must comply with all ADA and ABA requirements.As new standards are published,the City will need to update and adopt these requirements for municipal charging to ensure equitable access to charging infrastructure for all residents. Requirements in the State of California for ADA accessible vehicles are shown in Table 21. 84 I Page Table 21. Requirements for ADA accessibility in California,per CBC 11B-228.3Xl" Total Number of EVSE at Parking Minimum Required Number of EVSE by Type Facility' Van Accessible Standard Accessible Ambulatory 1-4 1 0 0 5-25 1 1 0 ----26—50 — --- -. 1 1 1 51-75 1 2 2 76—100 1 3 3 101 and over 1,plus 1 for each 300,or 3,plus 1 for each 60 or 3,plus 1 for each 50,or _ fraction thereof,over 100 fraction thereof,over 100 fraction thereof,over 100 (a) Where an EV charger can simultaneously charge more than one vehicle,the number of EVSE provided shall be considered equivalent to the number of EVs that can be simultaneously charged. Action 1.D.5. Adopt ordinance for EV chargers in floodplains EVSE should always be elevated above potential flood waters if possible. This means that critical surface connection points to above ground or buried lines,transformers,and ideally all electrical equipment should be elevated above base flood elevation (BFE).The City should ensure that updated codes related to EV charging installations have construction requirements as outlined in Virginia Beach Code Appendix K.Article IV. Floodplain District Provisions, so that all chargers located in flood zones are installed above design flood elevation (BFE plus freeboard). In other national jurisdictions,electrical equipment (cabinets,switchgear, and transformer) has been installed one foot above BFE. Consideration should also be given to installation of chargers that are waterproofed to include personnel protection so that it complies with codes for electrical equipment which may become submerged. Recommendation 1.E: Empower Residents and Owners of Multi-Unit Dwellings (MUDs) Medium Term Residents of MUDs face barriers significant barriers to the adoption of EVs. These residents often do not have an assigned parking space at which a charger can be installed,and the vast majority of MUDs do not have any shared EV chargers installed, leaving these residents fully dependent on public charging. Installation in underground parking facilities also presents specific challenges to building owners, as installation cost may be far higher than in typical applications. LMI and DAC residents are also far more likely to reside in MUDs, exacerbating challenges associated with EV ownership for these groups. Figure 52 shows the density of MUDs in Virginia Beach by block group. There are approximately 60,935 households in Virginia Beach that are occupied by renters (34%of total households). It is far less likely that renters will have access to residential charging, even when the property may have attached parking facilities. Renters may be prevented from installing Level 2 home charging due to electrical infrastructure upgrades and cosmetic changes that may need to be made by the property owner. 85 IPage laLlirtais,_ ,.jvpmwp ,r o t* illb __Atop Andieri t r 04�•►iheykluebTki r am• b`��,t��' 'gr' 4 idio.,„.. .-4,40 Willwifr Ptighwit,,,A via) t** ASIA ob• AP • miiiiii volt • ,-V_ 10.,.•4W fir,. ��ti SrigwJ� L s 14 At Illor 4111 Total Multi-Unit Dwellings H Oto200 200 to 400 400 to 600 -I600 to 800 800 to 1,000 1,000 to 1,200 Figure 52.Distribution of MUDs in Virginia Beach by Block Group Development of policies and programs that address these challenges can both facilitate greater charger access and address equity issues. As described in Goal 5,the City should leverage federal funding sources to facilitate the creation of specific incentives or technical assistance programs for residents and managers of MUDs, particularly in areas that improve charger access to LMI and DAC residents. Adoption of IECC 2021 Commercial Building Codes at the state level (Action 1.C.3)can also help address 86 ( Page charging at MUDs by requiring the installation of EV chargers and EV ready parking spaces in new construction. Action 1.E.1. Communicate Virginia Code § 55.1-1962.1 to residents and HOAs In 2020 Virginia passed right-to-charge legislation,which ensures that homeowner and condominium associations cannot prohibit a resident from installing electric vehicle charging station on property owned by the resident, including residents of cooperatives. Information about this law should be communicated to residents, property owners and HOAs through the City website(Recommendation 2.A) to ensure that they are not prevented from installing charging infrastructure at their residence.The City should also provide informational resources to residents regarding installation of chargers at MUDs.City staff should also ensure that this law is properly enforced locally to reduce problems for residents wishing to install charging. Action 1.E.2. Consider incentive programs for MUDs There are significant barriers for installation of EV charging infrastructure at MUDs, including high building electrical infrastructure upgrade costs, particularly for older buildings, and accessibility for all residents who are using shared spaces, often leading to underutilization of chargers. For larger deployments, distribution system upgrades can create project delays,further increasing costs,and may trigger building code updates. Building managers and owners may also lack information about the installation process and thereby simply do not pursue installation. The City should consider the development of an incentive program for the deployment of EV infrastructure at MUDs,with a focus on LMI and DAC residents. Fairfax County,VA is currently in development of the Charge Up Fairfa; program, which is being designed to offer HOAs assistance in conducting charging infrastructure feasibility assessments and provide reimbursement grants of up to $5,000 for installation of charging equipment.The pilot program is expected to be implemented in early 2023.x'"' A similar program could be implemented in Virginia Beach, potentially utilizing federal funding sources including the CFI Community Charging grant program, Equity Grants or EECBG funds (Goal 4). Recommendation 1.F: Establish Residential ROW and Curbside Charging Guidance Medium Term In addition to residents in MUDs, numerous residents in Virginia Beach rely on street parking for their vehicle, particularly in urban and suburban environments.Across Virginia, only 40%of residents have access to electricity within 20 feet of where they park at home.'" Commonly referred to as "garage orphans,"these residents face the challenge of how to charge their vehicle when it is parked curbside and lack electrical access.This can result in residents running charging cables from their home across the public ROW,creating significant fire and safety hazards (Figure 53). Actively addressing this issue can help alleviate future problems for residents. 87 I Page es' '�- I _ teaz� i" II (C)2010 bac ha.Ks aawhumor AU ••- - w...,,...e Figure 53.Example of problematic curbside charging in Washington,DC Credit:EV Advisors ➢ Action 1.F.1. Create pilot program for ROW charging No state regulations have been adopted regarding ROW charging, however other jurisdictions in Virginia have begun to address this issue by establishing permitting and guidance for residential curbside charging. Requests for curbside charging are expected to increase significantly in Virginia Beach due to the high number of rental properties and residents without driveways or garages. Proactively addressing this issue will reduce the number of residents requesting assistance in the future and reduce labor required for the City to handle these requests. In the near term,the City should establish a pilot program that enables residents to run Level 1 connectors across the ROW using a covered ramp. This strategy has been adopted in Washington, DC and is currently under consideration by other jurisdictions in Virginia.This pilot program would enable the City to gauge the number of requests that can be expected in the future and interest in program participation. Action 1.F.2. Adopt ordinance enabling residents to install ROW curbside charging Following an ROW pilot program,the City can consider adopting ordinance and establishing permitting to enable the construction of curbside EV chargers. It is expected that these chargers may be limited to Level 1 charging for residential installations but could also be expanded to Level 2 charging in the future. Several municipalities in the US have already established ROW permitting and design criteria (Figure 54, including Washington, DC and Montgomery County, MD. In addition, Montgomery County also 88 I Page established a simplified residential EV charging permit process and guidebook which can be used as a model for implementation in Virginia Beach (Recommendation 1.A). - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - II PRIVATE I I PROPERTY I I I II I I I I I I Charging yz NEW I I Cord I PRIVATE [ CHARGING ( I 1,—_r 1 r STATION ON • I PUBLIC Right- ._ ._ .— ._ .—._._ ...J of Way SIDEWALK a PUBLIC CURBSIDE PARKING PUBLIC STREET Figure 54. ROW Charging Cord Cover(left)and Residential ROW Charging Guidance,Montgomery County,MD Credit:DDOT(L)and MCDOT(R) Recommendation 1.G: Promote Incentives and Policies for Residential Charging Short Term As EV adoption grows, it is expected that most of charging will take place overnight at residential locations.The Department of Energy(DOE) estimates that 80%of EV charging currently takes place homexlvw because of the convenience and low cost of residential charging in comparison to public charging sites. In the future it is estimated that 61%of Virginia Beach residents will have access to a garage or driveway to enable Level 1 or Level 2 charging installations at home. Action 1.G.1. Communicate federal and state incentives As identified in detail in Goal 4,there are several federal and utility incentive programs available to residents of Virginia Beach to reduce costs for the purchase of EVs and charging infrastructure. The City should utilize the City EV information hub(Recommendation 2.A)to provide residents with access to 89 I Page this information, along with guidance for how to successfully apply to programs. In responses to the public survey conducted as part of this Plan, 30%of residents reported that they were unaware of incentives for the purchase of an EV,while 43%were unaware of incentives for residential EV chargers. To improve access to charging and reduce costs for residents,this information should be made readily available on the City website. Action 1.G.2. Facilitate residential electrical upgrades To install Level 2 EV chargers, many residents will need to upgrade to higher capacity electrical service panels,which distributes electricity from a utility grid connected main breaker to other smaller circuits or appliances throughout the home. Electric panel size is determined by the current rating of the main breaker and typically ranges between 100-400A.The more electric loads there are in a home,the larger its electric service panel must be. Older homes, and homes built with natural gas systems for cooking and/or heating will often have an electric panel below 200A. As households electrify or add loads like EV chargers,they will likely need to upgrade their electric panel to 400 A to accommodate Level 2 charging installations. To complete necessary upgrades, residents will need to engage with an experienced contractor for installation and will require necessary permits for upgrading electrical equipment.The City can provide a streamlined online permitting process and facilitate communication between residents and contractors for installation of charging equipment(Recommendation 2.A). Action 1.G.3. Consider incentive programs for residential upgrades The City should consider the development of an incentive program to help reduce the cost of electrical upgrades required for residential charger installations,with a focus on LMI, DAC and rural communities in the form of tax incentives, rebates,or through waiving of permitting fees.This program could be established utilizing federal funding sources including the CFI Community Charging grant program, Equity Grants or EECBG formula funds (Goal 4). Recommendation 1.H: Promote Incentives and Policies for Workplace Charging Short Term After residential charging,the most common location that EV owners are expected to charge their vehicles in the future is at work.The analysis presented in Chapter 4 of this Plan estimates that Virginia Beach will require over 800 workplace charging ports by 2030 and nearly 3,000 by 2035. It is also expected that lower-income communities will be more reliant upon workplace chargers due to lower access to home charging. However, business owners can face challenges for establishing workplace charging programs, including financing charger installation and information about how to appropriately size and operate chargers. Action 1.H.1. Communicate federal and state incentives 90 I Page As identified in detail in Goal 4,there are several federal and utility incentive programs available to business operators in Virginia Beach to reduce costs for the purchase of EVs and charging infrastructure. The City should utilize the City EV information hub(Recommendation 2.A)to provide businesses with access to this information, along with guidance for how to successfully apply to programs.The public information survey distributed as part of this plan found that 50%of respondents were unaware of incentives for installation of charging infrastructure at their business and only a third of respondents were interested in installing a charger for its employees or customers. Provision of relevant information to these operators make increase adoption of charging infrastructure in the coming years. Action 1.H.2. Communicate workplace charging program guidance The City can prioritize outreach and communication with local businesses to ensure that they have information available regarding the benefits of installing chargers at their place of business. Resources have previously been made available through the Department of Energy, NYSERDA and other organizations that provide information about the costs, benefits and processes associated with workplace charging,which can be shared with businesses in Virginia Beach with the EV hub. Examples of information required for businesses includes: • Expected employee demand and time of use • Number of charging ports to install, electricity demand and required infrastructure upgrades • Setting of fees for employees and/or the public • If chargers should be made available for public use • Revenue models for working with EVSPs • Availability of federal,state, and local incentives to facilitate implementation 91 I Page Goal 2: Catalyze Public Engagement Around EV Charging How do we increase awareness and participation? Recommendations in this section focus on actions that will facilitate increased awareness of EV technologies for residents, including online and in-person education and outreach activities,training and workforce development programs, and types of information can be provided to local stakeholders to facilitate EV charging. These recommendations will also emphasize the role that public awareness and engagement campaigns can have to help address equity and environmental justice concerns and increase transportation access for all local residents. } lily --� i i .� ilir 080 .

Freebee On Demand EV Ride-hailing Program Vehicle in Virginia Beach Recommendation 2.A: Create EV Information Hub on City Website for Residents and Businesses Medium Term The City's leadership role in educating the public, providing information and championing transportation electrification is one of its most important and valuable opportunities to support EV adoption and deployment of charging infrastructure in Virginia Beach. Providing easy to understand, accessible materials can help residents to understand the changes involved with transportation electrification in the coming years, how to adequately prepare for this transition,and how to take advantage of programs that may reduce living expenses or increase opportunities for economic improvement. Action 2.A.1. Develop and publish online EV information hub on the City website The City should consider the development of EV information hub on the City website that can be made available to residents of Virginia Beach.This can serve a mechanism for residents to find local EV dealers and charger installation professionals, access online permitting resources,view maps of existing EV 92 1 Page chargers operating in the City, and other tools.The goal of such a portal would be to equip residents with the information needed to procure, operate, and maintain an EV and access vehicle charging as easily as possible. In the near term,the City should integrate publicly available resources provided at the state and federal level to educate residents.The City should work with other regional partners—such as MWCOG,Virginia Clean Cities, Dominion Energy, and universities—to develop a landing page with resources,tools, information on incentives,and other educational material.The City of Boston's website offers a user- friendly and easy-to-navigate interface that can serve as an example(Figure 56).

Recharge Boston EV Program Landing Page In addition to providing resources about EVs,the City can also promote electric scooter and electric bike programs,the City's use of EVs in its fleet(see Goal 4),the City's support of the HRT transit system's electric bus program, and Virginia Beach City Public Schools (VBCPS) electric school buses to provide a comprehensive demonstration of the City's leadership to support EVs. The core elements of such an EV resource portal should include: • Roadmaps,strategy documents, and plans related to EVs and charging in the City. • EV guidance documents, information about vehicle models, costs, and charging technologies. • Resources connecting local service providers,such as certified electricians and EVSPs. • Links to City ordinance,codes and online permitting processes related to EVs and charging infrastructure. • Decision-making tools,vehicle comparison charts, EV checklists. 93 I Page • Fact sheets describing past or current pilot programs. • Installation guide for installing home,work, and/or publicly accessible charging stations. • Maps showing existing or planned EV charging stations. • Information on workforce training and economic development opportunities. • Links to federal, state, local and utility incentives and grant programs. • Links to presentations,workshops,webinars, and training materials. • A frequently asked question sheet. This information hub would support many of the recommendations in this Plan focused on the dissemination of information and can help establish the City as a leader in transportation electrification. Recommendation 2.B. Implement Equity and Environmental Justice Community Outreach and Engagement Strategy hort T- m Disadvantaged communities, communities of color, LMI and individuals with disabilities have historically lacked quality access to transportation and energy systems.Therefore,these groups have not realized equitable benefits from these systems and should be prioritized in transportation planning activities:' Ensuring equitable access for EV charging infrastructure requires a comprehensive community outreach and engagement approach that aims to serve all residents.Without a comprehensive and equitable approach,the deployment of EV charging infrastructure may lack affordability, accessibility,and reliability, location convenience,safety, and employment and economic opportunities for the surrounding community.' Action 2.B.1. Establish stakeholder engagement goals Meaningful engagement with community members helps build support for programs and projects,as well as informs the City about where EV charging infrastructure may be most useful to the community. In turn, an equitable distribution of EV charging infrastructure can improve overall access to transportation, increase access to workforce development and job opportunities, and promote the use of energy efficient technologies. It may also lead to reduced exposures to transportation emissions in these communities." In developing a stakeholder engagement strategy,the City should first establish clear goals and processes that will facilitate implementation (Table 22). Table 22. Stakeholder Engagement Planning Define clear purpose and goals of community engagement and outreach. — I When designing the engagement plan, clearly identify the desired outcome of outreach, and establish criteria to monitor success. 94 I Page Establish a community advisory panel. Establish an advisory panel representative of both government and community voices to ensure diverse (r representation and points of view.This advisory panel can identify stakeholder groups for outreach, oversee implementation, and track program success. Build ongoing relationships with priority communities. Focus on developing l^ and maintaining relationships with community members to facilitate future engagement and refine strategies for future outreach. Action 2.B.2. Establish stakeholder engagement strategies and methods Examples of stakeholder engagement strategies can be found in Table 23.The City should utilize multiple methods of engagement to ensure diverse views are heard and considered throughout the planning process and that the program achieves the equitable and fair distribution of benefits and services of the deployment, installation, operation, and use of EV charging infrastructure.'" In addition, the City should set realistic expectations with community members around the types of types of decisions they can inform, prioritize transparency,and be responsive to the concerns and needs of the Table 23.Stakeholder Engagement Strategies OConduct a stakeholder mapping exercise to identify priority communities for OldC outreach. Identify community groups such as homeowners' associations, school boards, local housing organizations, equity groups, and small businesses to target for outreach. 41) Host public information sessions. Provide updates to community members regarding program implementation, opportunities for training and workforce development, or provision of resources available for community use. Host Public Listening Sessions. Provide a forum for the public to provide feedback,express concerns or address other issues regarding program implementation.To maximize participation, meeting locations and times should be selected that ensure geographic coverage and accessibility. Conduct surveys. Utilize online and in-person surveys to identify needs, —Li opportunities, and priorities, provided in multiple languages to improve X = accessibility. Surveys can be targeted to specific communities and can be distributed through program partners, in addition to directly by the City. Engage with the community using a combination of media outreach. Community outreach should utilize multiple methods for outreach, including in- I I person, print, online,and social media to ensure information access and feedback. 95 I Page community throughout the planning and decision-making process." It is important to evaluate all engagement approaches to understand what groups or community members may not be represented, which can inform where changes may need to be made to better reach those groups." Action 2.6.3. Implement continuous stakeholder engagement program As the City identifies municipal sites for installation of public charging infrastructure, it will be important for the City to have developed a replicable process for ongoing engagement with community members to ensure that the process is both efficient and effective. As EV infrastructure is deployed in Virginia Beach in the coming decade and beyond,the City will need to continually engage with community members to refine program goals, prioritize additional sites, understand stakeholder needs and develop new strategies to help meet those needs. In particular, ongoing engagement can help to assess the overall accessibility of charging infrastructure, barriers to adoption of EVs and charger utilization and the distribution of economic benefits being achieved across priority communities. Recommendation 2.C. Promote Virginia Beach as an EV Capital City and EV Friendly Tourist Destination Virginia Beach is the largest city in Virginia and is a significant tourist destination,as highlighted in Chapter 4. As EV adoption rates continue to rise in the coming years,tourist populations will be increasingly concerned with their ability to charge as a prerequisite for selecting a travel destination. Virginia Beach can gain recognition both regionally and nationally by leveraging its actions regarding electric transportation in by branding itself as an Electric Vehicle Tourist Destination.As public EV chargers are deployed in the city, communicating to potential visitors EV owners that there is available charging infrastructure at key tourism destinations in Virginia Beach can alleviate concerns about the ability to fuel their vehicle and could generate additional revenue. Action 2.C.1. Develop EV branding Through the Convention and Visitors Bureau,Virginia Beach should consider the development of a brand that communicates the City's commitment to EVs. In other cities, specific EV tourism and branding initiatives have been undertaken to highlight City efforts and commitment (Figure 57).The Drive Electric Orlando Program was established in 2015 through a partnership of the Florida Energy Office and the Electrification Coalition, conducting direct marketing campaigns throughout 2016 to 2018 EV* SA SAC1 ©*ZERO DRIVE Zero Tailpipe Emmons.No Boundaries•All Sacramento ELECTRIC VEHICLES Si, .

San Antonio developed the EV-SA Initiative to promote City efforts on sustainable and electric transportation, and was done similarly through the Sac-to-Zero program in Sacramento, CA. Virginia and other states have also created specific branding regarding to enhance awareness around their commitment to vehicle electrification. Similar branding can be adopted by Virginia Beach to be used in communications and public relations campaigns, and utilize resources developed under the Drive Electric USA to enhance public awareness. o�`JE EtEepe__ • ©RIVE 6k glu -in ncpchargeup New G E7 RGIA �'�RGIN�P Figure 58.State EV Initiative Branding Action 2.C.2. Publicize EV efforts Other methods to strengthen the EV ecosystem in Virginia Beach and send strong market signals to investors include using public statements, events, or policies to support and encourage entrepreneurs to become active in the EV market, sending encouraging signals to government employees to find creative solutions to overcome EV barriers, and rewarding and incentivizing EV driving. Investing in EV signage to enhance wayfinding of EV infrastructure is another important way to increase public awareness of charging infrastructure availability. Such efforts may also increase opportunities for strategic public- private partnerships to support investments in Virginia Beach's transportation electrification initiatives. To the extent possible, public-facing documents and City press releases should reference the need for an electric mobility future and highlight Virginia Beach's cumulative number of EVs on the road, availability of chargers,the policies that have led to sustained adoption success, and emphasize increases in recent EV adoption. Action 2,C.3. Engage with local businesses Through the Department of Economic Development,the City should outreach to local industry organizations including the Virginia Beach Hotel Association,the Virginia Beach Restaurant Association, Central Business District Association and Atlantic Avenue Association to provide information and resources to local businesses about EVs. Providing these entities with guidance for installation and operation of charging stations, charging station revenue models and other benefits to business owners in attracting patrons can help to support the deployment of charging infrastructure in tourist areas in the City. 97 I Page Recommendation 2.D Establish Workforce Development and Training Programs -- Medium Term _ _ Deployment of EVs and charging infrastructure brings with it significant opportunities and challenges related to economic development. Numerous new jobs will be created through installation, operation and maintenance of EV chargers and vehicles, manufacturing of EV and charging station components, expansion of local energy generation,and electrical system upgrades. However,this opportunity also requires education and training programs to be implemented that enable local populations to access new employment opportunities in an equitable manner. Standardized education,training, certification, and apprenticeship programs should be implemented within Virginia Beach to expand the capacities of residents to take advantage of the economic benefits associated with EV and charging infrastructure deployment. Action 2.D.1. Identify training programs There are several specific programs related to EV infrastructure that should be leveraged or adopted in Virginia Beach to help provide training programs to its residents,as well as to municipal staff. Integration of high-quality national certifications like the Electric Vehicle Infrastructure Training Program (EVITP) have been developed to support training programs related to EVs nationally.Table 24 provides a summary of national and local programs that can be integrated into local efforts. Table 24.National EV,EV Infrastructure and EV Safety Training Programs Charger Installation and Maintenance111. Electric Vehicle • The program was designed to provide qualified electricians with comprehensive Infrastructure training in the proper installation of EVSE(residential,commercial, public,and Training Program fleet). (EVITP) • Participant must be a state licensed or certified electrician. • If the participant works in a state that does not license or certify electricians,they must provide documentation of a minimum of 8,000 hands-on electrical construction experience. Emergency Response National Fire • Alternative Fuel Vehicles Training Program for Emergency Responders:Online Protection • Introduction to alternative fuel vehicle concepts including,electric, hybrid,fuel Association (NFPA) cell, biodiesel,and gaseous fuels such as CNG(Compressed Natural Gas), LNG (Liquefied Natural Gas),and Propane. • The program also covers identification techniques,immobilization and power- down procedures,extrication challenges, recommended practices for dealing with hazards such as fires and submersion,incidents involving charging/refueling stations,and more. Electric Vehicle Maintenance Reynolds Community • Curriculum is designed to meet the need for automotive technicians with College:Hybrid and education in the advanced technologies used on current vehicles.Such advanced Electric Vehicle technologies include electric, plug-in hybrid,and fuel cell EVs,as well as the Technology CSC advanced control systems used on these and other advanced vehicles.The 98 I Page program provides instruction on the theory of operation,application,and diagnosis of the systems used in these vehicles. • 22 Credits to Receive Certificate.

Program There are also registered apprenticeship programs that should be utilized by the City to facilitate the establishment of a workforce training program.Virginia Clean Cities is currently working on the development of an online resource that will provide information to municipalities regarding EV training programs available in the state,which should be utilized by the City upon publication. Other organizations in Virginia which are currently in development of training and apprenticeship programs related to EVs and EV charging infrastructure that the City should coordinate with includes: • BlueGreen Alliance • International Brotherhood of Electrical Workers (IBEW) • Capital Commitment of Virginia • Action 2.D.2. Establish workforce training partners Through the Department of Economic Development,the City should leverage existing experience with workforce training initiatives for application to the EV sector.The City should also work with the Hampton Roads Workforce Council and state agencies regarding economic development opportunities, identifying training resources and participating in available programs.Workforce training programs should be established conjunction with environmental justice outreach (Action 2.B.1)to ensure ensuring that education assistance programs are made available specifically for LMI and DAC residents. Action 2.D.3. Pursue funding for workforce training As identified in Goal 5,there are numerous federal funding programs that are available to establish workforce training and development programs at the state and local level related to EV technologies. In order to fully capture the economic benefits of federal funding,the City should prioritize those programs and projects which not only provide economic benefit in the short term but will also enable long term economic development for workers in the region by building local capacities and stimulating new sector growth. Workforce training actions should be incorporated into any request for federal funding, with a focus on equitable access to economic development opportunities. 99 ' Page Goal 3 Establish Municipal EV Programs How do we expand charger deployment at municipally-owned sites? 11/ t"svilf. --ter �l L.- _• Aor. Figure 59. Municipal EV Fleet in Columbus,OH Goal 3 focuses on those direct actions that should be taken by the City to prepare for the transition to electrified transportation.This includes the development of leadership programs, establishing deployment goals and targets, coordination with partners and deployment of EV charging at municipal properties. Recommendation 3.A. Establish an EV implementation Working Group • Short Term Formalizing City leadership regarding electric vehicles is an effective mechanism to communicate to both internal and external stakeholders the City's commitment to transportation electrification and provides a mechanism to bring diverse stakeholders into the decision-making process. Action 3.A.1. Establish purpose and membership This implementation working group should be developed to help implement the recommendations in this Plan and can evaluate and prioritize recommendations for benefits, impacts, and costs and resource requirements. Participants would collectively prioritize recommendations, identify lead and supporting departments for each recommendation, develop resourcing and implementation plans, and monitor and 100 I Page report on implementation progress. Moreover,the group should develop a longer-term EV planning guidance to meet city EV charging infrastructure needs in the future. This working group should meet on a regular basis (monthly, quarterly)to ensure that information is effectively communicated across relevant offices and for the development of strategies to increase deployment of charging infrastructure. This implementation working group may include representatives across City offices to ensure that EV infrastructure training, planning and implementation is conducted in a cohesive manner, and ensure both input and coordination across offices.This working group could include representatives from: • Public Works • Economic Development • Planning • Fire • Information Technology • Public Utilities • City Manager • Parks and Recreation • Public Schools • Emergency Management • Communications Office • Police • Convention and Visitors Bureau • Housing and Neighborhood Preservation Recommendation 3.6: Set Deployment Targets Short. Setting targets for EV charger deployment is important for several reasons: communicating the City's priorities to a wide group of stakeholders;ensuring consistency of planning efforts over time and across City departments;tracking progress; and ultimately for ensuring the City direct appropriate resources to charging infrastructure. Action 3.B.1. Adopt EV Charger Deployment Targets The City should establish near-term (five-year) and medium-term (10-year)targets for the total number of publicly accessible charging plugs in Virginia Beach. Potential targets are given in Table 25,which are based on the Current EV Pathway presented in Chapter 4. Given the rapidly evolving nature of vehicle and charging technology,the City should periodically—as frequent as every two years—reassess its charging deployment targets. This reassessment should consider actions and targets by other cities(see Recommendation 3.0 on benchmarking). This data can be compiled from publicly available resources such as PlugShare or DOE AFDC, or could utilize permitting data to track progress subsequent to implementation of Recommendation 1.A. Table 25. Potential targets for publicly accessible plugs in Virginia Beach Total Publicly Accessible Level 2 Total Publicly Accessible DCFC Plugs Scenario Year Plugs Neededb Neededb 154 needed 34 needed Current 2022 (120 currently exist) (17 currently exist) 2025 188 38 Future 2030 1,487 284 a Electric vehicle population projection based on the Current Pathway discussed in Chapter 4. 101 ' Page bThe number of needed plugs is based on the plugs to EV ratio from the National Renewable Energy Laboratory's(NREL's) EVI-Pro Lite Tool. - Action 3.B.2. Set fleet conversion targets The City should also establish targets for the number of EVs that are deployed in the municipal fleet. As outlined in Recommendation 4-D,the City maintains a light duty fleet of over 2,000 vehicles,and a total fleet of over 4,000 vehicles. Establishing a target for the number of EVs deployed in the City fleet on a yearly basis can ensure that the City meets or exceeds deployment of EVs across Virginia as a result of ACCII, resulting in 100% new procurements for the non-emergency LDV fleet being electric by 2035.The results of this fleet assessment are presented in an accompanying report. Recommendation 3.C: Benchmark Against State and Local Charger Deployment Short Term. ., To establish itself in a leadership position,the City should benchmark metrics of EV and EV charger deployments in the City against other jurisdictions and nationally. Action 3.C.1. Establish benchmarking metrics and conduct annual review The City should formalize a process for annual review of total chargers deployed in Virginia Beach to be undertaken by the working group identified in Recommendation 4-A.The City should consider benchmarking itself with other MWCOG-member cities or cities in Virginia.As warranted,the City should publicize leadership in the total number of chargers deployed and integrate these achievements into public facing documents. Charging Ports per 100,000 people 140 120 100 80 60 40 20 11111111111111111111 0 VT DC CA MA CO RI ME HI MU OR U I \' A NV NY CT MO VA \N'Y AZ Om VE' Figure 60.20 States and Virginia Beach: EV Chargers per 100,000 people A commonly published metric is the number of chargers and vehicles per 100,000 people (Figure 60). According to the DOE AFDC, across the state of Virginia,there are currently 34.9 EV chargers per 102 I Page 100,000 people and 10 charging ports per registered EV.'' In Virginia Beach,there are currently 29.9 EV chargers, which is below the state average. Recommendation 3.D: Ensure Implementation of Virginia Code 15.2-1804.1 Short berm z, In 2021,Virginia adopted Code 15.2-1804.1,which establishes requirements installation of EV infrastructure at all new construction and major renovations at municipal buildings in the state (Table 26). Under this regulation,the City is required to ensure that for any new construction of at least 5,000 square feet, or a renovation that costs more than 50%of the value of the building, infrastructure "including EV-ready charging electrical capacity and pre-wiring, (i)sufficient to support every passenger- type vehicle owned by the locality and available for use by the locality that will be located at such building upon full occupancy, meet projected demand for such infrastructure during the first 10 years following building occupancy,or(ii)that achieves the current ZEV or EV charging credit for a high performance building certification program." Table 26.Virginia Municipal Construction Requirements for EV Charging Subject Description Code Zero Emission Any locality designing new building construction of more 15.2-1804.1 Vehicle(ZEV) than 5,000 square feet, or a renovation that costs more Infrastructure than 50%of the value of the building, must include New Building sufficient ZEV charging and fueling infrastructure.The Requirement for building must be capable of supporting projected ZEV Localities charging and fueling demand over the first 10 years following building occupancy. Action 3.D 1. Adopt Virginia Code 15.2-1804.1 As identified in Recommendation 3.E,the City maintains a light duty fleet of over 1,600 light duty vehicles that are suitable for electrification.The City is currently planning major construction and renovation projects at several key municipal sites that include significant municipal fleets. For those sites which entered the design phase starting January 1, 2021, and in the future, consideration of this requirement is necessary.While this regulation does not require the installation of EV charging equipment at municipal sites, it does require that the parking facilities be constructed "EV ready"— meaning that all critical wiring and electrical capacity must be installed that would enable the installation of charging ports to support a fully electrified municipal fleet located at that building. Action 3.D.2. Co-location of public and workplace charging Integration of this standard may also facilitate the installation of charging stations at municipal properties, both for the public and for municipal employees. When planning new construction or renovations,the City should conduct site assessments to understand the feasibility of installing charging capacity beyond what is needed for the municipal fleet. Co-locating public chargers for use by City 103 ' Page employees or residents with new construction of chargers for fleet operations can reduce overall infrastructure costs. Site design that includes electrical infrastructure for additional chargers can reduce costly retrofits in future years as penetrations of EVs continues to increase. Policies should also be developed regarding vehicle charging for municipal employees.While some workplace programs provide free charging services to employees as a benefit, it is not recommended that the City provide free charging to municipal employees.While in the short-term EV charging may only apply to a small number of staff,as EV deployment grows this offering may become a large cost to the City. EVs have been shown to reduce TCO for light duty vehicles across vehicle classes, and when combined with existing incentives at the federal and state level it would be unnecessary for employees to be further incentivized to purchase an EV through further reduced fueling costs. Recommendation 3.E: Implement Plan for Electrification of City Fleet _ Short Term In conjunction with development of this Plan,the City has undertaken an analysis to understand the composition and operational requirements of the light duty fleet operated by the municipality.There are 1,611 light duty vehicles operated by the City which may be available to electrification in the coming years.This analysis provides recommendations on vehicles that are suitable for electrification in the near term,with assessment of available EV replacements by vehicle class, along with infrastructure requirements to support these vehicles.The City should implement a plan to begin electrifying the City fleet, prioritizing high use vehicles such as those operated by DPW and in the motor pool,which will give City operators exposure to EV technologies.A detailed assessment of this analysis can be found in the Fleet Assessment Report accompanying this plan. Action 3.E.1. Procure vehicles this year The City should prioritize purchasing or leasing at least one vehicle of each major type this year to give City fleet operators the opportunity to familiarize themselves with the operation of EVs and understand changes to daily operations that result from different fueling practices. Gaining familiarity with EVs in the short term is critical to enabling the pragmatic rollout of EVs across the City fleet in the coming years. Using the list of priority vehicles provided in the fleet assessment,fleet electrification should be given to those sites that (a) have high concentrations of vehicles co-located for overnight charging to increase efficiency for charger installation, (b)facilities that have planned construction or renovations which will require installation of make ready charging infrastructure (Recommendation 3.D), (c)those sites which will enable greatest employee access to utilize EVs(such as motor pool),and (d)those sites which may be co-located with public charging infrastructure to provide synergy with transformer upgrades, installation of conduit, and other construction activities that will need to be undertaken. . Action 3.E.2. Adopt state DGS TCO calculator into fleet planning 104 1 Page Virginia Code§ 2.2-1176.2 mandates that beginning on January 1, 2023, all state agencies in Virginia must use a Total Cost of Ownership(TCO) calculator to assess their light duty fleet. agencies must purchase or lease EVs instead of ICE vehicles if the calculator indicates that an EV will offer a lower TCO than an ICE vehicle. Virginia Beach should adopt this tool for its own vehicle electrification program to align its efforts with state level planning and to understand the costs and benefits of fleet electrification as technologies advance in future years.As prices for EVs continue to drop in the coming years and vehicle options expand to medium and heavy-duty applications, it will be important for the City to revisit TCO scoring of vehicles to expand the scope of priority vehicles suitable for electrification beyond the scope of the Fleet Assessment accompanying this Plan. Y- Action 3.E.3. Adopt alternative fuel policy The City should adopt an Alternative Fuel Policy to guide fleet purchasing and operations, and can develop internal standards and guidelines for implementation of charging infrastructure for City use. Such planning process should include site coordination,vendor and technology standards, charging infrastructure management and governance policies and practices, access policies,funding coordination, and business model approaches. Such planning and governance process will also be critical to opportunities where the City may consider offering publicly accessible charging infrastructure as outlined in Goal 1. Action 3.E.4. Consideration of PHEVs For some fleet applications,such as emergency response vehicles,full electrification may not be suitable in the near term. PHEVs may be more suitable for those vehicles that require the flexibility of dual fueling to ensure that vehicles are operational during extended grid failures or to enable rapid refueling times based on used case. To maximize cost efficiency and reduce emissions, PHEV vehicles should be charged similarly to BEVs to maximize daily travel using the battery system. The majority of the LDV fleet in Virginia Beach has a daily range of<40 miles, using electricity for as the primary power source for most operational needs. Fleet PHEVs can be plugged in for overnight charging as done with BEVs as infrastructure allows. Recommendation 3.F: Increase Coordination with Dominion Energy Short Term A critical component of the charging infrastructure development process is close coordination of local utilities. While the City may have identified priority sites of installation of charging infrastructure or developed strategies for phased rollouts of EVs in the municipal fleet,the utility must assess capacity for the grid to integrate proposed charging infrastructure, particularly for DCFC charging installations. Dominion Energy can also provide specific guidance regarding constraints, development timelines and costs associated with the development of make-ready infrastructure at the project site. 105 ' Page Action 3.F.1. Review priority sites Using the list of priority municipal sites for public charging infrastructure provided in Chapter 5 of this Plan,the City should engage with Dominion to understand which locations are most suitable for installation of charging infrastructure in the near term, and which sites may require significant distribution system upgrades in order to accommodate additional load. It is expected that in the future the City will be site host to hundreds of chargers to serve both residents and the City fleet. It is critical that the City engage with Dominion in the near term to identify priority locations that may provide the most efficient process towards implementation, and to identify those locations which may require significant upgrades, particularly in rural areas. The City should also coordinate with Dominion regarding proposed locations for municipal fleet electrification. Municipal fleet locations will require a significantly greater number chargers to be installed in a single location in the near term than will public charging sites. As such, infrastructure upgrades will require higher costs and longer timelines for make ready construction at the project site. As identified in Goal 5,the City should work with Dominion to perform necessary upgrades to enable electrification of the entire fleet at those sites which contain large concentrations of vehicles. Future- proofing these sites will enable the City to more efficiently install additional charging ports in the future. Action 3.F 2. Establish partnership approaches The City could partner with Dominion Energy to provide services in multiple partnership arrangements (Figure 61). Dominion can serve a under a traditional model, providing utility service up to the point of the meter.There is also the capacity for the City to work with Dominion to provide "make ready" construction services, whereby the utility supply the panel, conduit and additional infrastructure required up to the point of the EVSE. Lastly, Dominion can serve as the owner-operator of the EVSE, supplying charging services to the City, including ownership of the infrastructure.

However, site hosts are limited to selection between two charging network providers and charging hardware suppliers as provided by Dominion. Rates have been set as: Table 27.EV Charging Tariffs for EV Charging Owned by Dominion Commercial Level 2 $.28/kWh Commercial DCFC $.42/kWh In the near term,the City could explore partnership opportunities with Dominion Energy to act as the owner operator of charging stations on municipal sites,though it is expected that this service will be provided instead by an EVSP. Recommendation 3.G: Select Ownership Model for Public Charging on Municipal Properties Medium Term As outlined in Chapter 1,there is a diverse set of groups that are involved in the construction and operation of EV charging infrastructure.Table 28 provides a summary of the EV charging ownership models that can be utilized by the City in deployment of infrastructure in the future. Table 28. Public EV Charging Ownership Models Ownership Model Costs to City Revenue Potential Third-party owned and Low; program management Low operated City-owned,third-party Medium; hardware and Medium operated management costs City-owned and operated High; hardware, operation,and High (but may generate losses) management costs Charging as a Service(CaaS) Medium;subscription fee Medium, potential shared revenue Advertising-supported free Low; program management Low, small site host payment charging Action 3.G.1. Select EVSP partnership approach To minimize risk and cost to the City, it is not recommended that Virginia Beach act as the owner/operator of public EV charging infrastructure. Most cities do not operate City-owned charging stations for public use, instead opting for grants, incentives, and partnerships with utilities and EVSPs to install, operate and maintain EVSE on municipal properties. While site hosts in the private sector, such 107 I Page as retail locations, may wish to own and operate EV charging to generate revenue though electricity sales,this also increases the up-front investment necessary for EVSE procurement. Instead, Virginia Beach should partner with a third-party EVSP to install, operate, and maintain charging equipment on municipal properties as a turnkey service provider at little to no cost to the City. Alternatively,the City may wish to partner with Dominion Energy to provide services whereby the utility provides electricity, make-ready and electrical infrastructure, along with EVSE equipment to streamline the installation process. While third-party owner-operator models offer low revenue potential for the City, it also drastically reduces investment and operational costs. The selected partnership arrangement should minimize any costs incurred to the City for installation of infrastructure and ensure that EV charger maintenance services are supplied by the EVSP, rather than be overseen by City staff. Action 3.G.2. Distribute Request for Proposals Virginia Beach should develop a Request for Proposals (RFP)which enables a third part(such as an EVSP) to install and operate EV charging infrastructure on municipal property with low-to-no cost to the City. The results of the survey conducted in development with this Plan showed that many residents feel that City funds should not be used for construction of public charging infrastructure. Minimizing cost to the City through RFP structuring can support this directive. This RFP should offer specific guidance regarding the type of infrastructure requested, network and communications protocols, maintenance requirements, and other criteria as outlined in Goal 1. US DOT has developed a checklist for EVSE project planning that the City should use as a guide to understand the project development and scoping, utility planning, and installation planning for specific municipal sites at which it wants to install both public facing and municipal fleet chargers. The City should use other recent RFPs as a blueprint to inform new RFP design. Virginia municipalities including Harrisonburg, VA, and Fairfax County,VA, have recently issued EV charging station RFPs that can be used to guide development of RFPs in Virginia Beach.The City should also leverge cooperative purchasing programs,such as those offered by Sourcewell,to enable the City to more rapidly deploy EV chargers through a streamlined procurement method. While the City has failed to gain qualified responses to EV Charging RFPs that were distributed in 2015 and 2019,the EV marketplace has transformed significantly in recent years.The number of chargers nationally has grown from 78,000 total Level 2 and Level 3 charging ports in 2019''to over 140,000 in 2022 and a includes a far more diverse set of service providers and technologies. The City should also leverage its existing participation in the DOE Clean Energy to Communities (C2C) technical assistance program to gain strategic guidance on the development of successful RFPs in light of federal funding opportunities in the future. In addition to direct technical assistance from DOE,this program will also enable the City to solicit feedback from other program participants on lessons learned 108 ( Page during RFP distribution, as well as in EV charging installation and operation that will provide valuable in development of RFPs in Virginia Beach. Recommendation 3.H: Municipal Capacity Building/Training - Medium Term - Education and training are necessary across City government to prepare for transportation electrification. This can range from technical training for fleet management professionals to development of workplace charging policies for City employees. Proactive support for municipal staff can build confidence to EV technologies and enable the City to more seamlessly integrate EV charging into all operations. Action 3.H.1. Training resources for municipal staff To help develop and enforce new codes and standards, increase adoption of EVs by municipal employees,and improve the understanding of emergency responders for EV assistance,the City should offer training to local officials to increase their understanding of the EV charging infrastructure technology and safe installation and operation. These trainings can be held as a series of workshops held either in person or online on a wide variety of topics, including EV operations and maintenance, EVSE installation, operations and maintenance, best practices for permitting processes, and other topics. Priority audiences for training should include the City's planning and zoning staff, historic preservation staff, code administration plan reviewers and inspectors,fire marshals, and first responders, including fire and police departments who may encounter EV charging infrastructure while responding to community emergency needs). Primer materials and videos provided by DOE,the National League of State Legislators,the Electrification Coalition and other should be made available to City employees to introduce them to EVs and charging technology. Action 3.H.2. Training for technicians The City should implement a technical training program for City staff that ensure that fleet vehicles and EV chargers are able to be adequately maintained. While it is expected that both maintenance services EVs and chargers is expected to be provided by a third party in the near term, building internal capacities to resolve issues will enable the City to respond to issues more effectively and also increasing staff comfortability with vehicle operations. The City should enable a training program utilizing the resources presented in Action 2.1.D to be made available to City engineers, automotive services and maintenance staff,facilities managers and other employees that may be responsible for operation and maintenance of EVs and charging infrastructure. As new training resources are developed by Virginia Clean Cities,VDOT and other groups,the City should incorporate these programs into employee education programs. 109IPage Action 3.H.3. Training for first responders EVs present specific challenges to emergency responders, particularly as it relates to battery fires. EVs are far less likely to catch fire than ICE vehicles; only 337 EV fires have been reported globally since 2010.1 "' However,the fires can be long-lasting and severe, and require specific fire suppression techniques. EV battery fires can be very time-and resource-intensive for responders.There are safety risks for responders related to the emission of toxic and flammable gases from damaged batteries,and the unpredictability of thermal runaway and re-ignition. Flooding, particularly from saltwater, presents specific challenges for operation of EVs. Residual salt within the battery or battery components can form conductive "bridges"that can lead to short circuit and self-heating of the battery, resulting in fires.The time frame in which a damaged battery can ignite has been observed to vary widely,from days to weeks. On March 10,2023, Virginia passed HB 2451,which requires all firefighters, including volunteers,to enroll in a training program on the risks of fires in electric vehicles and how to safely and effectively manage such fires. This program will be developed by the state Department of Fire Programs by July 1, 2024, and all firefighters in Virginia Beach will need to complete the program by December 1, 2025. The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) has published guidance related to flooding and fires for first responders and second responders,developed in collaboration with the U.S. Fire Administration, National Fire Protection Association (NFPA) and others. Other guidance materials have been developed for first responders,which should be circulated within Virginia Beach to ensure that appropriate protocols are followed for incident response: • NFPA training for responders on alternative fuel vehicles. • Fire Department Response to Electrical Vehicle Fires from the IAFC.The bulletin includes guidance for responders pre-, during and post-incident. In February 2023, City staff held an initial training with NFPA on issues related to EVs, including fires resulting from flood events.The City should ensure that all first responders are given effective training on how to respond to EV battery fires and required fire suppression equipment should be made available for use by all departments. 1101Page Goal 4: Enhance Charger Access at Municipal Sites How do we expand charger deployment at municipally-owned sites? J-� *chit • 1111 i • r•-i;'); 1 ., II _ Figure 62. Electrify America DCFC Charging Plaza in Santa Clara,CA Recommendations in this section address how the City can deploy charging infrastructure on municipal properties to best serve its residents and visitors.The majority of EV charging is expected to be located at residential and commercial locations in Virginia Beach,with the City acting as a facilitator by removing barriers to deployment(Goal 1) and through providing residents and businesses with information and resources (Goal 2). However,the City can also work to fill charging infrastructure gaps to ensure equitable charger access, support economic development and achieve community charging goals. The public engagement survey conducted as part of this Plan (Chapter 5) demonstrates that the preferred sites for publicly accessible charging stations are grocery stores and large retail locations with accessible parking,followed by parking facilities, recreation centers and parks. Municipally owned properties of these types provide the opportunity to deploy charging infrastructure in areas that may not otherwise be served.To increase charger access,the City should first establish priorities for how and where EV infrastructure should be deployed to fill gaps and increase equitable access for all residents. Chapter 5 presents a methodology for selection of priority locations for Level 2 and DCFC charging infrastructure.The recommendations in this section are complementary to that analysis and can be used for long term planning for infrastructure development in Virginia Beach and orientation of electrification goals for the City. 111 I P a ge In prioritizing locations for charging infrastructure on municipal properties,the City should focus on several key areas to support residents and businesses in Virginia Beach: Equity and Environmental Justice.The City should identify gaps in charging infrastructure that can be filled through installation on municipal properties to 1r/I ensure equal access to all residents,focusing on geographically distributed locations such as parks, libraries, and community centers. Community engagement and programs for LMI residents and DACs can help ensure that proposed locations match the needs of community members. 1 Transportation Centers. In the near term,the City can prioritize municipal A►, properties that are expected to have high utilization, including along highways and major arterials, high use parking lots and garages,and locations for destination charging such tourism sites,event spaces, and municipal buildings. Municipal Fleet and City Employees.The City will require significant charging infrastructure to support electrification of municipal fleet vehicles in the coming F,4 decade, as well as providing charger access to City employees. Charging TIM • infrastructure supporting the City fleet can be sited in conjunction with public charging to reduce infrastructure development timelines, improve long-term site planning and reduce operational costs. Emergency Planning.To enhance local response to emergency situations,such ` as mass evacuations, chargers can be located along key evacuation routes and - in — backup power installed as possible to enhance resiliency.The City should follow best practices for development of charging infrastructure in flood prone areas and the City can consider energy storage and mobile charging technologies to ensure adequate support of mission-critical vehicles and support evacuation operations during grid failures and extreme weather events. Tourism and Destination Charging.The City can ensure that visitors have access to charging infrastructure by siting municipal chargers in proximity tourist 01, destinations and close to hotels and rental areas. Placing chargers in high- visibility sites visibility sites will communicate City commitment to vehicle electrification to internal and external stakeholders,while also meeting overall community needs. Rural Communities. Deployment of charging infrastructure requires specific planning with local utilities and government support to ensure that chargers are ',f: Ir. *A deployed where utilization may remain low in the short term due to population _ OA density and grid capacity restraints. Chargers can be placed at community milillib centers, libraries, parks, and other municipal properties where private sector installations may lag,and the City develop specific incentive programs to facilitate rural electrification through federal programs. Chapter 5 presents an inventory of municipal sites that have been identified as potential priority locations based upon the priorities above, in addition to other criteria. Installation of charging 112 I Page infrastructure at these sites can increase access for both residents and visitors to the city.The City can work directly with EVSPs and other partners through the dissemination of a request for proposals (RFP) for construction and operation of Level 2 and/or DCFC stations on municipal properties with low cost and risk to the City(Recommendation 3.G). Chapter 5 of this Plan and appendices also provide details regarding distribution of LMI, DACs and historically marginalized populations in the city and mechanisms to support development within those communities. Recommendation 4.A. Ensure Equitable Charger Access Medium Term Publicly accessible locations for charging infrastructure are critical for ensuring equitable access to charging infrastructure for DACs and LMI residents, as well as in rural communities. If distribution of charging infrastructure is focused only on where early adopters of EVs are located or travel and driven by historic consumer demand, it can create significant disparity in access. Because EVs can have higher up-front costs and LMI households are less likely to purchase an EV; early adopters tend to be higher income individuals. EVSPs may be less likely to install charging infrastructure in LMI communities with low rates of EV adoption. In turn, lack of charger access can prevent LMI residents from purchasing an EV in the future due to an inability to conveniently charge their vehicle. Identifying those communities which have low rates of existing publicly available charging(charging deserts), high concentrations of MUDs or renters, higher percentages of LMI populations, high exposure to transportation pollution, and other considerations can help establish locations that should be prioritized for EV charging infrastructure deployment by the City. Action 4.A.1. Adopt EJ criteria for prioritization of charging There are multiple resources that should be utilized by the City to ensure that chargers are equitably deployed within Virginia Beach.The Joint Office of Energy and Transportation published the Justice40 EV Charging Map,supporting the federal Justice40 initiative,which directs that at least 40%of the overall benefits of certain Federal investments flow to disadvantaged communities (DACs). This map incorporates numerous criteria related to equity, using publicly available data sets related to vulnerable populations, health,transportation access and burden, energy burden,fossil dependence, resilience, and environmental and climate hazards. Using this guidance is of particular importance when positioning the City to access federal grant funding through the Corridor and Community Charging Discretionary Grant program and other federal sources to determine if project locations are located within a priority DAC.The Table 29 below provides a summary of additional mapping tools that have been made available through federal agencies and through the Virginia Department of Environmental Quality,with applicability of tools for different funding types. These resources should be utilized by the City for specific applications for federal assistance for EV charging infrastructure, using mapping tools correlating with the appropriate agency.As federal standards for equity and environmental justice are further developed, the City will need to reassess the applicability of these maps. 113 I Page Table 29.

Over 50%of the properties identified in the priority property list in Chapter 5 are located in designated communities. Over 200 other municipal properties in Virginia Beach are located within these communities,which should be reviewed for deployment of charging infrastructure in the future. An inventory of these properties can be found in Appendix G. 114IPage rtsa1%,041------.--- \ 4011%---W%M, -"A 4. ,1), V• -I. '01160&*-114/1i 11!\411,1 kalitiaf*IV"i is,"4*.c..

Formalize annual review of public charging infrastructure to identify gaps As EV infrastructure is deployed across Virginia Beach,the City should regularly review the geographic distribution of publicly available charging infrastructure to ensure that all communities in the City have access. Using the screening tools provided in Table 29,the City should conduct an annual review of this distribution and identify where gaps in charging infrastructure may begin to emerge over time. Using this information,the City should prioritize new charging infrastructure deployed on municipal properties to increase access for underserved environmental justice and rural communities, as well as other geographies that are not receiving adequate deployment. The City should leverage federal and state 115 I Page funding sources to install stations in these areas or establish partnership arrangements which incentivize EVSPs to provide charging infrastructure in those communities. This review should be completed in conjunction with setting of targets as identified in Recommendation 3.B. The City should also set targets specific to charger deployments in environmental justice, LMI, rural communities or other criteria as a percentage of total charging ports or total charging stations on municipal properties in Virginia Beach. Recommendation 4.B. Support Rural Electrification Medium Term A significant portion of the southern part of Virginia Beach is rural and zoned as agricultural lands. Rural areas present significant challenges for vehicle electrification and as a result,significant barriers to regional EV charging infrastructure.Vehicle and infrastructure costs, reduced grid capacity,geographic isolation, low charger utilization and limited technology exposure to EVs means that rural communities face substantial barriers in the initial construction and long-term viability of public charging stations. Older rural homes are also more likely to require panel upgrades to enable residential Level 2 charging installations, presenting further challenges for adoption of EVs in these areas. Action 4.B.1. Enact rural electrification strategy Virginia Beach should work to develop a comprehensive plan of how they want to address charging capabilities in rural areas.As outlined in Recommendation 2.B,this should involve engaging directly with stakeholders to understand how transportation functions locally and what specific community needs are.This could include driving patterns, common occupations, home-charging access, and any other considerations that would impact where and how chargers are built.Virginia Beach should implement for a process that engages with all critical partners in rural communities prior to identification of funding sources to minimize downtime and ensure quick infrastructure rollout.Advocating with Dominion Energy to ensure that grid expansion serves all residents of Virginia Beach, particularly in rural areas, will be critical to ensure greater deployment of EV charging in the future. Figure 64 provides a map of municipal properties in rural areas that may be suitable for deployment of charging infrastructre overlayed on the Level 2 priority block group map presened in Chapter 5. Three of these properties have been included in the priority locations list presented in Chatper 6. A full inventory 116 ' P a g e ..... sir..8. .,-. i 40,x., g-v--iAoir I, FA Ite r .

Municipal Properties in Rural Areas in Virginia Beach 117 1 Page Recommendation 4.C. Accelerate Charging at Tourist and Municipal Sites Medium Term As discussed in Recommendation 2 and in greater detail in Chapter 4, tourism is a primary driver of economic development in Virginia Beach. While hotels, retail sites, restaurants and service stations will be expected to host charging for visitors and residents of the city traveling to tourist areas,the City can accelerate charging infrastructure to serve growing charging demand by deploying charging at municipal parking facilities. These sites are expected to have higher utilization in the near term in comparison to other areas of Virginia Beach due to their central locations and high turnover rate of users. Action 4.C.1. Deploy charging at municipal parking facilities There are a significant number of parking garages and surface lots owned and operated by the City, which are concentrated in the Resort Area and Sandbridge Beach (Figure 65). However, only one charging port is installed at two individual sites,one of which is currently not operational. These sites are expected to have high utilization by both residents and tourist populations and can be prioritized for installation of charging infrastructure in the near term and may provide a source of revenue to the City. Of note are the municipal locations in Sandbridge, as there are currently no known publicly available EV charging sites in this area of Virginia Beach. fl F�• it1 1110#0, %it Affairgaramor4 .0P kat 1St, a rilo /! =ir +ti City Parking b. �'� w540., •19th Street North Parking Lot toe� ,�� .. * 0 19th Street South Parking Lot 0 25th Street Garage a�� �► Nt O 2nd Street Parking Lot*�����` O 31st Street Garage I►� � ��.+ tr,�'° c��l► ' •atr~Street Pence g Lot i r��� � ��, •9th Street Garage reAli ,7�'A � � � O Craatan Parking Lot ri 0 Little Island Park Parking Lot �y ••Rudee t oop Parking t,ot L' fir' •Sandbndge!.Basket Parking Lot ` Sandbndge h1,;nicipal Parking Lot Figure 65.

In addition to municipal garages,there are over 2,000 parking spaces located on commercial properties in the Oceanfront Resort Area. Proactive communication with property owners regarding the economic benefits of operating charging stations and information regarding process for construction and operation, will help to support the needs for residents and tourists of Virginia Beach in the coming years (Recommendation 2.A). Recommendation 4.D. Consider DCFC installations on Municipal Properties Long Term Due to the high utilization requirements, electricity and investment costs associated with the construction of DCFC charging infrastructure, it is not expected that in the City would serve as site host or own any DCFC stations in the short term. However, as the fleet is electrified in greater numbers, it is likely that the City will need to host DCFC chargers to service the municipal fleet, particularly as medium and heavy-duty vehicle are electrified in the coming years. 119 ' Page Action 4.D.1. Identify municipal sites for DCFC charging There are eleven existing fueling facilities in Virginia Beach that service the municipal fleet, shown in Figure 66. Existing Municipal Fleet Fueling Sites in Virginia Beach . Given the geographic distribution of these existing sites and proximity to major roadways in the city, including primary evacuation routes(I- 264),there may also be opportunity to co-locate both public and municipal fueling at these facilities to increase station utilization rates.

Existing Municipal Fleet Fueling Sites in Virginia Beach In addition, access to rapid charging to a key mechanism to support emergency planning and resiliency efforts. There is opportunity to have future DCFC chargers which serve the fleet be available for public use during emergency events to facilitate evacuations.These sites can also be reviewed for co-location Page120 ' g e of energy storage to ensure charger availability during grid failures for charging of mission critical fleet vehicles. Recommendation 4.E. Pilot Public Curbside Charging Long Term As identified in Recommendation 1.F,curbside charging is I '` critical to supporting residents who are unable to charge • ' : ; the vehicle at home. Development of residential ROW charging policies can facilitate the deployment of EVs in 1 ,v the coming years, but policies can additionally be ; 1 implemented which facilitate publicly available curbside , '�.+ I I I-_ charging. In these applications, EV chargers can be placed — %r x... ' • -4 at public street parking sites, potentially conjunction with parking meters,streetlights, or other electrified i `, technologies that operate in the public ROW. Application of these policies can support charging in dense urban areas where surface parking lots may not be available, or in locations that central to where TNCs operate. While 1111106 curbside charging installations can be costly and can 1 ,- require significant construction in the public ROW, streetlight/pole change can provide a cost effective and easy to implement to solution to some charging Figure 67.Streetlight EV charger in Tacoma,WA infrastructure needs. Credit: Tacoma Public Utilities . Action 4.E.1. Pilot streetlight charging project Streetlights can accommodate Level 1 or Level 2 charging, depending on the existing electrical capacity available at the project site. Because electrical infrastructure is already available, installation costs can be significantly less than typical EVSE site installations.These locations can also be selected to prioritize LMI and DAC communities to support equitable distribution of charging infrastructure across the city. Locally,four Level 1 charging ports were installed at lampposts at the Shenandoah Airport in 2021, and jurisdictions across the united states have installed hundreds of public streetlight chargers. Virginia Beach has over 1,400 lampposts located on municipal properties across the city(Figure 68), including in rural areas. In partnership with Dominion Energy,the City can explore locations that may be suitable for installation of lamppost Level 1 and Level 2 charging. It would be expected that the majority of these installations would be Level 2, but at those sites in which a resident can park a car overnight or available electrical capacity is not available, Level 1 charging could also help support charging for residents unable to charge at home. 121 I Page Deployment of this charging technology could also be a project for submission to the CFI-Community Charging Discretionary Grant or other federal programs, particularly for its potential application in LMI, DAC and rural communities and provision of low-cost charging. illartrObb— . -140 4044/1 OA klit t 1 Itto•Ave04,00-A ..\v 41404OP-.4Millijaisill 4_10 .0ktill ukalftikilintigillowrNIIIIINK 1 4!„.. hittM1 V .41 4fr 414,6 ity IAM iii‘r l �,02"40`__ `ri ay to 1111 lailir T tWAti 14 - ofiA siji _A gilWitef 1116," ir 61 S ill,Z., 411 't** (- /Or c S ‘ look Index Score - Level 2 4/11: 0.18 to 0.86 0.86 to 1.40 1.40 to 2.10 2.10 to 2.90 2.90 to 4.10 4.10 to 6.00 Figure 68.Concentrations of Streetlights on Municipal Properties in Virginia Beach 122 I Page Goal 5: Identify Sources of Funding for EVs and Charging Infrastructure What federal, state and local sources can the City utilize? -; Designated Electric%chicle Alternatise Fuel Corridors,Kound%1-6 ' - I�- `• r • MT ND ' MN `\M' i Wi..1 I ;N Y .NV VT NH lA \ 1 SD ` 14I'.

FHWA EV AFC Map Goal 5 focuses on federal,state and utility-level programs that can be utilized to facilitate EV and charging infrastructure deployment in Virginia Beach. This includes financing strategies,grants, incentives (rebates and tax credits), and vouchers which are used to reduce or eliminate procurement and installation costs. Opportunities to advocate for new policies and programs within state government and with Dominion Energy have also been identified. Recommendation S.A. Pursue Federal Formula and Discretionary Grant Opportunities Short Term The Bipartisan Infrastructure Law (BIL) includes billions of dollars to fund dozens of new and existing programs for states, cities,towns, and municipalities. As Virginia Beach expands its charging network in the coming years, it will be important for the City to pursue these funding sources the procurement of EVs and construction of EV charging infrastructure, as well as to leverage funding for City planning related to technology adoption, workforce training, economic development, and resiliency. 123 ( Page Table 31 below provides a summary of the key provisions that are outlined in the BIL that may be of interest to Virginia Beach for deployment of charging infrastructure in the future. Each row shows the federal cost share provided by that program; remaining cost-share funding will need to be identified through private sector partners, city and state budgets, revolving loan funds, or other sources. In addition, some programs have 100%federal cost share available for projects in rural or disadvantaged communities. Programs may also have allowable in-kind contributions in the form of third-party contributions of staff time,volunteer services, or other allocation of resources. A searchable inventory of these opportunities can be found through several online resources, including the American Cities Climate Challenge Federal Funding Guide and the Electrification Coalition EV Funding Finder.

Federal Cost Share:TBD Action 5.A.1. Continue to pursue designation of 1-264 as an AFC As identified in Chapter 2,the largest federal grant program established under BIL is the DOT NEVI program. However, 1-264 has not yet be designated as an AFC and therefore is not currently eligible for the program. The City is in ongoing discussions with VDOT and FHWA to garner nomination of 1-264 as an AFC and be eligible for funding under this program in future years. Notably, I-264 contains road segments with the highest Average Daily Traffic(ADT)count in the state outside of Northern Virginia, establishing its criticality as part of the national charging network. The City should continue to advocate with VDOT for nomination in the coming months.As charging infrastructure is installed through this program,the City should continue its coordination with VDOT to ensure that DCFC installations in VA Beach are complementary to other planned or existing deployments. While the City is not currently eligible for NEVI formula funding,there may be opportunities for the City to leverage funding upon designation of 1-264 as an AFC, or once all existing AFC in VA have achieved FBO status. Action 5.A.2. Pursue CFI-Community Charging and other grant programs In the near term,the City should pursue funding through the CFI Community Charging program. Program information is currently pending, and the Funding Opportunity Announcement (FOA) is expected in early 2023.The City should consider responding to this RFP both as a stand-alone applicant, and as part of a regional collaboration through HRTPO or other lead agency. For a City-led proposal,the City should prioritize parks, recreation centers and other municipal properties utilizing the spatial analysis presented in Chapter 5. The City should also prioritize workforce development and training programs, or funding to support the deployment of charging infrastructure in MUDs with a focus on historically disadvantaged communities. The City should consider pursuing projects beyond the scope of deployment of charging infrastructure at municipal sites through NEVI the CFI Community Charging discretionary grant program. In particular,the deployment of EV charging infrastructure with backup storage to enhance transportation system resiliency and emergency preparedness offers opportunities for Virginia Beach to leverage federal funds. The City should also consider the utilization of both formula and competitive grant funding for 126 ( Page decarbonization planning and implementation to support the acquisition of EVs and charging infrastructure in the near term to support larger state level emissions reduction goals. Examples of projects that could be developed implemented using federal funds includes: • Utilize federal funds to establish an incentive program for owners and managers of MUDs to construct charging infrastructure, with requirements for funding allocated to MUDs located in disadvantaged and low-income communities. • Implement workforce development and training programs in conjunction with the Office of Economic Development, partnering with local education and community groups to make resources available to Virginia Beach residents,with a focus on equity. • Design multi-modal Shared Mobility Hubs in conjunction with HRT and HRTPO to deploy charging infrastructure for passenger vehicles in conjunction with buses, rail and mobility devices such as e-bikes and scooters. • Deploy energy storage in conjunction with EV charging as a demonstration program for resilient technologies and emergency preparedness. • Procure mobile charging solutions to serve the City fleet, as well as for emergency responders • Develop an EV resiliency and emergency preparedness plan. Action 5.A.3. Establish FOA response plan for federal opportunities For the City to effectively plan for and response to federal and state level funding opportunities,the City should develop a framework that will streamline the development and application process.There are several key components for development of any application of funding that will facilitate implementation and potential award.

Communicate tax credits to residents and business As identified in Goals 1 and 2,the City can best support the deployment of EVs and charging infrastructure in Virginia Beach by serving as a facilitator. Ensuring that residents and businesses are 129 I Page aware of these incentive programs and have guidance for how to receive benefits can reduce barriers to EV adoption and charger deployment. In particular,the commercial EV charging equipment tax credit can cover 30%and up to$100,000 per unit for installations that meet income and prevailing wage requirements. Enabling businesses located within low-income census tracts in Virginia Beach to access this incentive has help support equity and environmental justice goals established by the City. r Action 5.B.2. Utilize tax credits for municipal fleet procurements Two provisions listed in Table 33 above are relevant to the City for the acquisition of vehicles and charging infrastructure for the City fleet. First,the section 45W Commercial Clean Vehicle Tax Credit. Guidance releases by the Department of Treasury and the Internal Revenue Service in December 2022 details that the 45W tax credit been extended to tax-exempt entities. It is expected, but not yet finalized,that many of the of the sourcing provisions outlined in the 30D tax credit will not be applicable, providing a larger number of available vehicles in the near term. In addition, it is expected that vehicle leasing companies may be eligible to receive the tax credit,which should enable procurements of vehicles for the City fleet at a lower cost. Second is the Commercial EV Charger Tax Credit,which may be applicable to tax exempt entities. Final regulations for all tax credits outlined in Table 33 are pending final publication. Guidance released by the Department of Treasury and the Internal Revenue Service in December 2022 details that the 45W tax credit been extended to tax-exempt entities. It is expected that many of the of the sourcing provisions outlined in the 30D tax credit will not be applicable, providing a larger number of available vehicles in the near term. Second is the Commercial EV Charger Tax Credit, which may be applicable to tax exempt entities. Final regulations for all tax credits outlined in Table 33 are pending final publication. This credit is expected to be provided as a direct payment to governments,with compensation received through a tax filing.Additional guidance regarding forms and process for claiming the credit is still pending.The City should ensure that it utilizes the 45W commercial tax credit for all alternative fuel vehicle procurements in the future. Recommendation S.C. Capture Opportunities for Funding and Advocacy in State Government Medium Term Through BIL, significant allocations of formula funds were made available to state governments with applicability to EV infrastructure. Key programs are highlighted in Table 34,which includes the CMAQ program,which until June 2022 provided funding to local government agency fleets located in Air Quality Non-Attainment areas in Virginia with reimbursement for incremental costs to transition to alternative fuels such as electric, natural gas or propane.

Federal Cost Share: 75%. Local governments can apply as sub- applicants to states. Action 5.C.1. Monitor and pursue state opportunities As new programs are established at the state level, it will be important for the City to continue discussion with state agencies included VDOT,VDEQ, and other agencies to pursue funding.The City can also advocate for use of these funding sources to develop specific new programs for EV charging infrastructure. Active engagement at the state level can facilitate partnership approaches that will increase likelihood of award and build relationships to ensure that charging infrastructure is deployed in coordination with neighboring jurisdictions to increase station utilization. State level opportunities may include direct funding for the procurement of electric vehicles or the deployment of EV charging infrastructure. However,the City should also position itself to utilize funding available for emergency preparedness planning and resiliency for potential deployment of energy storage in conjunction with EV charging technologies. Action 5.C.2. Advocate for state electric vehicle rebate program As noted in Chapter 1, in 2021 the Virginia legislature passed HB 1979,which authorized an incentive for the purchase or lease of any new and used EV through the Electric Vehicle Rebate Program. Virginia residents can qualify for a $2,500 rebate; LMI buyer requirements can receive an additional $2,000 rebate for a new EV and $500 for a used EV. However,to date this incentive program remains unfunded. 132 I Page The City should advocate within the state government for the funding of this program,or for the program to be specifically designed to provide incentives for LMI residents. Action 5.C.3. Resilient Virginia revolving loan fund The Resilient Virginia Revolving Loan Fund was established in 2022 to make loans or grants to local governments to finance or refinance the cost of any resilience project. Loans and grants may also be made from the Fund to a local government that has developed a funding program to provide low- interest loans or grants to any persons of the Commonwealth eligible for projects for resilience purposes. Projects under this program includes measured that "enable widespread integration of distributed energy resources, including energy storage and rooftop solar, into the grid to achieve decarbonization and to enhance resilience." The City should consider pursuing funding through this program for the deployment energy storage to enhance resiliency,which could be sited in conjunction with EV charging to ensure availability of vehicle charging during weather emergencies and grid failure as part of a larger scale resiliency strategy. Energy storage can serve dual purpose at evacuation shelters, providing both vehicle charging during peak load period prior to evacuations, and to provide back-up power to the facility during emergency events. Recommendation S.D. Identify Opportunities for Funding and Advocacy with Dominion Energy Medium Term Dominion Energy has established several incentive programs for residents and fleets operating EVs in Virginia. A summary of these incentives can be found in Table 35. Table 35. Dominion Residential Charging Incentives(2023) Program Name Description Residential EV Charger • Enrollment in EV charger rewards allows Dominion Energy Virginia(DEV)to Rewards Program make remote adjustments to charger's energy use during periods of high demand for electricity. Residents can earn$40 each year for participation. Residents may also qualify for an enrollment bonus of$125 after purchasing charging equipment. Residential Charger Program • Enables Dominion Energy Virginia to install EV Charging Stations for up to 1,000 customers • For 100 eligible low-income customers, no costs. • For all other customers,$40.27 per month for 60 months or$1,835.96 upfront Level 2 Charging Program • Enables DEV to install,own and maintain make-ready and level 2 charging stations for up to 110 customers • For 10 eligible customers located in low-income community or community of color, no costs. • For all other customers,50%upfront incentive on EVSE make-ready; customers pay monthly charge for remaining balance for 10 years. 133 1 Page Fleet Charging Program • Enables DEV to install,own and maintain make-ready and EV charging station for up to 175 fleet customers • For 10 eligible customers located in low-income community or community of color, no costs. • For all other customers,50%upfront incentive on EVSE make-ready; customers pay monthly charge for remaining balance for 10 years on their 1 bill. ➢ Action 5.D.1.Advocate for EV program expansion To increase EV charging access for both residents and businesses in Virginia Beach,the City should advocate for the expansion of these programs to gain opportunity for more residents. In particular, while each of the three existing programs have specific incentives for low-income residents,they are extremely limited in scope. Establishing large-scale incentive programs for residents and owners of MUDs and those residing in DACs will help to increase equitable charger access across the City. Virginia Beach should also advocate for programs that support lower-cost charging for both residential and public charging applications. In 2021, Dominion Energy launched a program for Virginia residents to enroll in an Off-Peak Plan,which enabled consumers to take advantage of time-of-use rates. However, this program was limited to 10,000 participants, and is fully subscribed. Expansion of this plan to include more residents will decrease EV operational costs to consumers,while also improving grid operations by limiting the number of residents that charge vehicles during peak periods(such as early evening). Action 5.D.2. Advocate for commercial EV charging tariffs DCFC stations require significantly higher utilization rates than Level 2 charging,due to both the higher cost for installation and infrastructure, as well as demand charges that may be incurred from the local utility because of high peak energy demand. Peak demand charges are applied to rates of all energy consumption through the billing period,which can cause stations to be operationally cost prohibitive. electricity demand charges (or capacity charges)are a common element for utilities to recover system costs throughout their service territory, particularly for commercial and industrial users,charging larger electric consumers for their peak usage each month In other localities, utilities have begun to create a specific commercial tariff for DCFC stations to avoid prohibitive demand surcharges from being levied against site host. Utilities such as Southern California Edison have established waiver programs whereby demand charges are not applied until year 5 of charger operation in order to allow time for increased utilization. Utilities have also established temporary rate schedules, or rebate programs to offset demand charges in the short term.The City should work with the State Corporation Commission (SCC), Dominion Energy,and other jurisdictions in Virginia to facilitate the implementation of specific tariffs for DCFC chargers in the state. Recommendation 5.E. Adopt and Promote Utilization of C-PACE Short Term 1341Page C-PACE is a federal program administered by Virginia PACE in Virginia. The program offers 100% financing for a wide variety of energy and resource sustainability and conservation project for commercial properties. Financing covers both hard and soft costs for projects with long term (30-year) fixed rate loans that are paid through property assessments which are tied to the land, not the owner. Program participation is entirely voluntary wherein property owners can opt-in to receive financing for eligible projects. .- Action 5.E.1. Adopt revised ordinance to enable use of utilize C-PACE for EV chargers In 2022,eligible project types were expanded to include EV charging infrastructure, as well as energy storage and microgrids, at the state level. All C-PACE financed projects must be permanent fixtures to the property in question,so charging stations should not utilize mobile charging technology. For property owners and developers to utilize C-PACE financing, a locality must also opt-in to the program.They do this by passing a local ordinance that enables the program and officially agree to the program in coordination with Virginia PACE. Virginia Beach passed ordinance 3676 in 2021 establishing The City of Virginia Beach Commercial Property Assessed Clean Energy(C-PACE) Financing Program. Eligible C-PACE properties include office, multi-family, industrial, retail, hotel, agriculture and non-profit (i.e., churches). Ordinance to Amend Chapter 35.5 of the City Code for the C-PACE Program was brought before City Council on February 21, 2023. Information about this program, process and the applicability to EV charging infrastructure should be made available on the City website. 135 ! Page Goal 6: Prepare for the Future What issues need to be considered now for the long term? Recommendations in this section focus on specific technologies, practices and applications that can be integrated into City EV charging infrastructure planning in the future.These recommendations may facilitate increased charging accessibility,operation, and overall transportation system resiliency, but will require longer timelines for implementation, or may require more mature technologies to be developed before widespread adoption can be considered. 4161 ! � V • 414 _156 ,-*%111% . a= 14 %. • U -`,1; —a • • Jr _ 444 41 1 0� 44 AI 0 Figure 70.Shared Mobility Hub Concept Credit:CoMo UK Recommendation 6.A. Develop Shared Mobility Hubs Long Term A Shared Mobility Hub is an emerging concept in transportation land-use planning where transportation connections,travel information, and community amenities are aggregated into a comfortable,seamless, understandable, and on-demand travel experience. Shared Mobility Hubs are typically located with major transit facilities and in places where frequent services intersect to allow easy transfers between 136 I Page mobility services. In addition to transit, Shared Mobility Hubs may include connections to car share, transportation network companies (TNCs),taxis, bike share, bike parking, pick-up and drop-off, kiss-and- ride,freight delivery, as well as connections to local bike and pedestrian routes. Hub projects can vary in size and scope, ranging from regional to neighborhood applications providing a variety of different transportation services. Action 6.A.1. Coordinate with HRTPO and HRT to pursue project development The City should coordinate with HRTPO, HRT and the Active Transportation Advisory Committee to identify opportunities for the deployment of a shared mobility hub in Virginia Beach. A Shared Mobility Hub in Virginia Beach could include four types of EV chargers: • Publicly accessible chargers using a mix of different power levels.The goal should be to serve multiple dwell times,from commuters(Level 1 chargers),visitors (likely Level 2 or DCFC), or others. • Fast chargers aimed solely at taxis and TNCs. Examples of this type of dedicated charger are increasingly prevalent,such as in the District of Columbia, Colorado, and Seattle. • HRT electric bus charging stations. • Docks for electric micro-mobility bikes and scooters. A potential location for a shared mobility hub is the Silverleaf Transit Center. This location is centrally located and near 1-264, providing high rates of accessibility for multi-modal transit.The City is currently reviewing the potential deployment of a public bike-sharing program,which could also be incorporated into this project design. Recommendation 6.B. Technologies and Practices to Enhance Resiliency and Support Evacuations Long Term Between 2020 and 2080,flooding of roadways in Virginia will increase by about 200% during a major flood,which means more comprehensive and effective solutions are mitigate the flood risk to charging networks. In the same time period,electricity assets vulnerable to a flooding event are projected to increase around 170%.With increased use of EVs, it is possible that concentrated periods of charging during mass evacuations could overload the grid in the future. Residents may also face challenges in recharging vehicles due to lack of access to public charging stations and due to the longer period of time takes to charge an EV as compared to gasoline vehicles. Beach should implement strategies to facilitate response to emergency events,such as hurricanes,floods, and mass evacuations. • Action 6.B.1. Identify priority sites for EV charging during evacuations The most direct method available to the City to address vulnerabilities of EV charging networks during extreme weather events and evacuations is to expand the number of chargers available on municipal properties. The City should consider the following: 137 I Page • Installing more electric charging stations in known evacuation regions and along evacuation routes could allow more evacuees to charge at one time without overloading the charging network.The power grid capacity may need to be upgraded to ensure that there is enough electricity in the case of an evacuation.3 • Investing more funding in DCFC chargers could allow more EVs to charge in a smaller amount of time,which will more efficiently meet the demand during a mass evacuation.3 • During evacuations, charging networks are often most stressed at geographies just outside of flooded areas. Strategically installing additional chargers outside of flood prone areas may support improved grid stability during emergency situations.This may include coordination with other municipalities in the region to ensure charger distribution. • Public messaging,such as recommending residents recharge their vehicle before a storm,can help reduce grid strain. Early and consistent communication with energy utilities could help better prepare the City in case of power shortages or outages.' The primary evacuation routes in Virginia Beach are 1-264 and 1-64, and secondary Highway 58, which runs in parallel to 1-264. Figure 71 identifies all municipal properties in Virginia Beach that are located within one mile of evacuation routes; a list of these properties can be found in Appendix G.This includes several properties that have been identified as priority locations for deployment of charging infrastructure in Chapter 5, including the Convention Center and Mount Trashmore Park.These locations should be given consideration by the City as locations for EV resiliency centers in which chargers are deployed in higher numbers and are sited in conjunction with energy storage or other back- I- 264 � .� I- 64 f US Hwy 58 61101411,),4141it tArt-H *A\ kr six dto.--awayfi .1452.1 •• -,, ra, 1r - %Ito* 0 tee r Irer'41 *111 tit AotavA To IV **it A itler4.44% Lc/ IP W fri ay 1► �r�1,14 �.�,� Pr-'44, Figure 71.

Deploy resiliency technologies To further enhance emergency preparedness planning in Virginia Beach, it is recommended that the City consider integration of resiliency technologies for EV charging infrastructure in the future.These technologies extend beyond static,grid-powered stations vulnerable to variances in power generation and natural disasters. EV Resiliency technologies not only ensure reliable transportation when the grid fails but can be utilized to reduce overall power demand and buffer the grid when it is at risk. Deployment of these technologies at emergency shelters, critical infrastructure and along evacuation routes will improve the capacities of residents of Virginia Beach to access charging during emergency situations, as well as enhance municipal operations. In the near term,the City can connect EV chargers at municipal sites to permanent generators already in operation if capacity is available, or expand existing permanent generators to serve as back-up power for critical vehicles during grid failure events. However, integration of mobile generators and battery storage into municipal plans will provide greater flexibility for responding to emergency situations and can also serve to provide grid services in non-emergency periods. In particular,the deployment of mobile charging technologies can be integrated into municipal operations for use during non-emergency events to serve as a charger for the municipal fleet, or to be dispatched to refuel stranded vehicles that have run out of charge. A summary of available technology applications to enhance resiliency are provided below. Back-Up Generation Permanent and mobile back-up power generation is recommended, either diesel or a battery energy +.4+ „et storage system. Generators present a common and • widely utilized solution for bolstering the resiliency --- of critical infrastructure when the grid fails.

While modern generators can burn cleaner and more Figure 72. Fixed Diesel Generator Powering an widely-sources fuels,they are not an ideal solution EV Charger for resiliency and sustainability. Not only do generators produce significant emissions, but they rely on fuel supply chains that are vulnerable to disruptions, especially during times of increased stress like grid failure. Distributed Renewable Generation There is opportunity to significantly improve the resilience of EV charging infrastructure by integrating renewable power into new and existing stations. EV charging can be paired with on-site renewable energy generation—most commonly by co-locating EVs with on-site solar energy systems, and in some 139I Page cases batteries, either with or without managed charging. This offers the opportunity for emissions-free EV operation,and when paired with energy storage, may offer the opportunity for vehicle operation without grid interconnection. Solar generation offers flexible location and sizing, zero emissions, and grid independence which reduces vulnerability and overall demand on the grid. Solar charging can readily support Level 2 EV charging and adding features like battery storage and grid integration can improve capacity and power delivery. Grid integration also offers the benefit of bolstering overall power generation capability in the area where solar chargers are utilized. Energy Storage The ability to store energy is critical to future grid and charging station resilience. Stored energy not only ensures that stations can continue to charge EVs when grid power fails, it can also improve grid stability by providing capacity during peak demand. Integration of energy storage with EV charging is gaining widespread adoption in the US;for example, Electrify America has deployed over battery energy storage systems (BESS) at over 150 EV charging stations across the US,and in 2022 deployed its first MW scale installation in 2022. Mobile Charging Mobile charging is a relatively new technology with the ability to serve many of . the same functions as traditional charging _ station with several additionally capabilities. - ,, '� Coming in a variety of sizes, large mobile .. chargers can service entire vehicle fleets s 4 Y,t with reduced fixed infrastructure while t' smaller chargers can provide critical range for long trips or stranded EVs. Mobile • ' chargers have the added benefit of acting as stored energy sources,offering similar grid resilience benefits as traditional storage Figure 73. Freewire Mobi Mobile Charger systems.There are both Level 2 and DCFC mobile stations that are available for procurement on the market today. Mobile chargers can range significantly in size, but all are designed to be deployed to sites where charging is needed on demand. The Tesla Megapack Mobile Supercharger is a 3.9 MWh battery that is approximately the size of a shipping container that can provide DCFC charging, while the Freewire Mobi charger is 80kWh and provides Level 2 charging capabilities,which is shown in Figure 73. A.- Action 6.B.3. Include EVs in Disaster Management Planning The City should consider developing an EV-focused chapter of its disaster management plan that will ensure that EV charging is available during crisis events and is resilient to natural or man-made shocks. 140 ' Page This should include the installations of EV chargers and backup power at emergency shelters and along evacuation routes in the City, as well as the deployment of mobile charging at geographically distributed points along 1-264 and with emergency response units. Protocols for communicating with the public regarding EV charging prior to extreme weather events should also be established. Close coordination with Dominion Energy will be required for the development of any emergency response plan, including proposed sites large EV charging installations to serve evacuation routes,or energy storage and charging deployed in conjunction with emergency shelters. The City should examine opportunities to leverage federal and state funding programs related to resiliency and disaster preparedness for the acquisition and installation of energy storage and mobile charging applications, as outlined in Recommendation 4.A. Recommendation 6.C. Consider Opportunities for Bi-Directional Charging and V2G Long Term Bi-directional charging refers to the ability for the battery of an electric vehicle to be used as a mobile storage device,delivering energy back to the grid, a building or to another external load. This requires both the charger and the vehicle to be capable of bi-directional charging; most chargers and vehicles do not have this capacity today. In the future this charging technology may provide critical resiliency leveraging the significant storage capacity of EVs to power the grid, buildings, and even other EVs. Action 6.C.1. Pilot V2G project with Dominion Energy As identified in Chapter 2,VBCPS is currently engaged in a V2G demonstration project with Dominion through its electric school bus program. Several federal programs identified under Goal 5 have specific applicability for the deployment of V2G technologies and should be assessed for deployment of pilot projects in Virginia Beach.The City can consider the deployment of a pilot V2G project for the municipal fleet in conjunction with Dominion Energy utilizing federal grant funds.As of this writing, on a handful of public schools have V2G demonstration projects, including El Cajon Valley Unified School District in California, Durango School District in Colorado,and White Plains School District in New York. Recommendation 6.D. Future Proof Charging Installations Long Term _- . Futureproofing refers to the process of accommodating the shifting needs of users over time and enabling easy and low-cost expansion of charging and upgrading of equipment at a project site. Futureproofing aims to prevent the costly and labor-intensive process of replacing or performing complex upgrades before equipment has reached the end of its design period without incurring excessive cost and risk. The most cost-effective time to create EV Capable and EV Ready sites is during construction, either when a building is being constructed or undergoing a major retrofit or when an initial electric vehicle charging station project is being installed. Action 6.D.1. Oversize infrastructure for forecasted EV deployment 141 I Page As new chargers are installed in Virginia Beach,the City should work to ensure that sites are designed and constructed to accommodate charger expansion, or higher power charging, in the coming years. This can include Installing larger substations and transformers, laying higher capacity conduit, installing additional electrical circuits, or designing the project site to enable future on-site energy storage and/and distributed generation. Critically, it will be important to communicate with Dominion regarding the expected future load at the project site to assist in grid planning and necessary upgrades to the distribution system. Futureproofing of infrastructure will be most important at locations with large concentrations of municipal fleet vehicles and public parking. Some municipal sites are host to fleets in excess of 100 vehicles that will be electrified in the coming decade. Designing to accommodate rapid expansion of charging infrastructure will greatly reduce future construction costs. As identified in Recommendation 4.D, it is required that all new buildings and major renovations be constructed with infrastructure that will enable electrification of all municipal vehicles in the next ten years. This requirement should be used as a baseline for how to futureproof charging installations at municipal properties across Virginia Beach. 142 I Page What Happens Next? To implement the Recommendations and Actions presented in this chapter,the City can undertake the following as immediate next steps to enhance the capacity of the City to support the deployment of EV charging infrastructure across Virginia Beach.

CITY OF VIRGINIA BEACH AGENDA ITEM ITEM: An Ordinance to Authorize the City Manager to Execute an Agreement with the Virginia Beach School Board and to Appropriate Miscellaneous Revenue MEETING DATE: April 4, 2023 • Background: The Something in the Water Festival (the "Festival") will be held during the last weekend of April. The City's public safety personnel have made preparations for large numbers of visitors, and much like a holiday weekend, the efficient movement of people will be necessary to maintain public safety and good order. For the 2019 Festival, the promoter requested the use of school buses of the Virginia Beach City Public Schools (VBCPS), and the City Council adopted an ordinance to authorize the City Manager to execute an agreement with the Virginia Beach School Board for the use of those buses, with reimbursement of the costs paid by the promoter. The promoter made a similar request for this year's festival. The Virginia Code permits a school board to enter into an agreement with a local governing body for the use of school buses. That law also requires that such agreement provide for reimbursing the school board for the costs attributable to the use of the buses, and the local governing body must indemnify and hold the school board harmless from any liability related to the use of such buses. The Virginia Beach School Board has a policy (Policy 7-52) that mirrors the requirements of the Virginia Code, and this policy provides additional granularity as to the calculation of the costs attributable to the use of the buses. • Considerations: The Festival has agreed to reimburse the City for all of the costs associated with the school bus agreement, and those reimbursement obligations will be memorialized in an agreement between the Festival and the City. At this time, the amount of the estimated cost is $265,000, but the attached ordinance provides an appropriation number with a substantial contingency, which recognizes (i) the exact amount will not be known until the completion of the event and (ii) the Festival is committed to reimbursing all of the costs. In addition to the appropriation, the attached ordinance authorizes the City Manager to execute an agreement with the Virginia Beach School Board. This agreement will comport with the requirements of the applicable laws and School Board policy. Additionally, the agreement will clearly provide that: (a) the bus drivers shall only be volunteers and no driver will be required to perform the shifts contemplated by the agreement; (b) the inside of the buses will be cleaned and inspected at the conclusion of the agreement; (c) there is a placard that discloses the ongoing video monitoring from the interior bus cameras; and (d) any applicable state or federal law addressing security and the buses will be honored. In regard to the hold harmless, the ordinance requires the Festival provide the City with proof of liability insurance, self-insurance, or other indemnity satisfactory to the City's Risk Manager for full liability coverage of the City at not cost to the City. • Public Information: Normal City Council agenda process. • Recommendations: Adopt the attached ordinance. • Attachments: Ordinance; Virginia Code § 22.1-182; School Board Policy 7-52; Disclosure Form Recommended Action: Approval Submitting Department/Agency: Convention and Visitors Bureau City Manager: A,2 1 AN ORDINANCE TO AUTHORIZE THE CITY 2 MANAGER TO EXECUTE AN AGREEMENT WITH 3 THE VIRGINIA BEACH CITY PUBLIC SCHOOLS AND 4 TO APPROPRIATE MISCELLANEOUS REVENUE 5 6 WHEREAS, the safe and efficient movement of people is a public purpose; and 7 8 WHEREAS, Virginia law allows a local governing body to enter into an agreement 9 with the local school board to use school buses; and 10 11 WHEREAS, the Something in the Water Festival has committed to reimburse the 12 City for the actual costs of the use of school buses 13 14 BE IT ORDAINED BY THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF VIRGINIA BEACH, 15 VIRGINIA, THAT: 16 17 1.

As a requirement of the City entering into the agreement with the Virginia Beach 36 School Board, the promoter of the festival shall provide the City with proof of 37 liability insurance, self-insurance, or other indemnity satisfactory to the City's 38 Risk Manager for full liability coverage of the City at no cost to the City.

One of the nine required services under STEP—VA is the Psychiatric Rehabilitation Services Step, which focuses on skill and resource development with emphasis on opportunities for functional, social, educational, and vocational development for clients with serious mental illness, substance use disorders, or serious emotional disturbances. • Considerations: The Virginia Department of Behavioral Health and Developmental Services is providing $30,000 in additional general support to the City's Department of Human Services' Psychiatric Rehabilitation Services in FY 2023.

The funds provide local APS staff with resources to enhance, improve, and expand their ability to deliver Adult Protective Services. Since the adoption of the City's FY 2022-2023 Operating Budget, the total funding from ARPA to the City's APS program has increased by $22,500. This updated amount was provided by the Virginia Department of Social Services. • Considerations: The additional $22,500 is intended to cover expenditures that improve and enhance the City's APS program and to continue the response to the COVID-19 Pandemic. The funds will be used for the purchase of goods and services for adults aged 60 or older or incapacitated persons aged 18 to 59 who are served through the City's APS program. The funds would be allocated to APS emergency sheltering and its in-home client support program; the purchase of technology, materials and resources; training for APS staff to enhance, improve, and support the prevention of adult maltreatment; and local investigations of adult abuse, neglect or exploitation related to COVI D-19.

As set forth in §32.1- 31(A) of the Code of Virginia, the governing body of any county or city may enter into a contract with the Commonwealth for operation of the local health department. The City of Virginia Beach has chosen this option. The Virginia Beach Department of Public Health (the "Department") is jointly funded and operated by the City and Commonwealth, and the terms of the Department's operations, funding, and programs are provided in the aforementioned agreement. Under the current formula, the City is responsible for 45% of the cost of most of the Department's operations, as well as 100% of additional add-on services such as the laboratory. For FY 2022-23, the City is obligated to match the Commonwealth's $3,652,312 contribution with $2,988,255. The Adopted Budget estimated an amount of $2,762,836. Therefore, the City will need to increase its contribution to the Department to meet current obligations. • Considerations: The attached ordinance transfers $225,419 of vacancy savings to the Department's budget. • Public Information: Normal Council agenda process. • Recommendations: Adopt the attached ordinance. • Attachments: Ordinance Recommended Action: Approval Submitting Department/Agency: Virginia Beach Department of Public Health City Manager: PP 1 AN ORDINANCE TO TRANSFER $225,419 OF 2 GENERAL FUND VACANCY SAVINGS TO MEET 3 OBLIGATIONS ESTABLISHED IN THE DEPARTMENT 4 OF PUBLIC HEALTH'S LOCAL GOVERNMENT 5 AGREEMENT 6 7 BE IT ORDAINED BY THE COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF VIRGINIA BEACH, 8 VIRGINIA: 9 10 That $225,419 is hereby transferred within the General Fund to the Virginia Beach 11 Department of Public Health to meet the City's required contributions to the FY 2022-23 12 Local Government Agreement.

CITY OF VIRGINIA BEACH AGENDA ITEM J ITEM: CITY OF VIRGINIA BEACH DEVELOPMENT AUTHORITY [Applicant] CITY OF VIRGINIA BEACH DEVELOPMENT AUTHORITY & YCH, LLC [Property Owners] Modification of Proffers to a Conditional Rezoning (To Amend the Design and Development Guidelines) for the parcels between 2009 Hudome Way to Tournament Drive, and the parcel on the southeast corner of Princess Anne Road and Tournament Drive (GPINs 1494459345, Portion of 1494170763, 1494086398). COUNCIL DISTRICT 2, formerly Princess Anne MEETING DATE: April 4, 2023 • Background: In December 2016, City Council approved the rezoning request of 146 acres from AG-1 & AG-2 Agricultural Districts to Conditional I-1 Light Industrial District for the establishment of the Princess Anne Commons Biomedical Park. The Park was intended to support medical and research institutions. The Park has been mostly vacant, due in large part to the change in market demands for this industry. The applicant is seeking to amend the Proffer Agreement and the Design and Development Guidelines to expand the Park's focus to research, education, technology, manufacturing, finance, business, and other commercial uses. The proposed revisions will apply to 113 of the total 146 acres, since the remaining parcels opted to remain under the 2016 Design and Development Guidelines. The new Design and Development Guidelines seek to: • change the name of the Park from "Princess Anne Commons Biomedical Park" to "Innovation Park", • update photos/illustrations, • reduce redundancy and better align the document with current codes and requirements, • permit more flexibility with new and innovative materials and construction methods, and • provide more guidance on light industrial and advanced manufacturing building types. • Considerations: The Planning Commission concurs with Staff that the request to update the Design and Development Guidelines for the Park is acceptable. The current Design and Development Guidelines are outdated and no longer align with the development City of Virginia Beach Development Authority Page 2 of 3 pattern originally envisioned for the Park. Overall, the new Design and Development Guidelines provide improved screening requirements and allow greater flexibility with building materials, while retaining guidelines to ensure the Park develops into an attractive "park-like" setting with continuity of open spaces from the surrounding Princess Anne Commons. The new Design and Development Guidelines will simplify the review process for developments within the Park, which aligns with current codes and regulations. If the design criteria update is not adopted, opportunities to grow and diversify the local economy could be missed by the current design requirements. The updated design and development guidelines would create a more marketable Park in this region. The application was presented to the TA/ITA Committee on March 2, 2023. Although the Committee raised concerns over the overall change in the vision for the park, no definitive action was taken. Staff intends to discuss the application further with the Committee at their next meeting, scheduled for March 30, 2023. Further details pertaining to the application, as well as Staff's evaluation, are provided in the attached Staff Report. There is no known opposition to this request. In January 2023, a letter was sent to the two non-VBDA property owners explaining the update and giving them the opportunity to be a party to this application. YCH, LLC requested to be a co-applicant, while the other owner was not interested and will follow the former 2016 Design and Development Guidelines. • Recommendation: On March 8, 2023, the Planning Commission passed a motion to recommend approval of this request by a vote of 7 to 0. Proffers: 1. The Property is hereby removed and released from the Existing Proffers and said Property will now be subject to the proffers contained herein. 2. Excluding the Property specifically described on Exhibit A, the remaining parcels of land located within the Innovation Park and not owned by the Applicants shall remain subject to the Existing Proffers, which remain in full force and affect. 3. Further conditions may be required by the City during detailed Site Plan review and administration of applicable City codes by all City agencies and departments. 4. Fencing on the Property, other than for screening purposes and where it is necessary for the security of certain facilities or necessary to funnel visitors to City of Virginia Beach Development Authority Page 3 of 3 designated entry points, is prohibited. The VBDA shall approve all proposed fences for material, color, location, coupled plantings and overall impact. 5. Temporary facilities, other than construction related facilities, shall not be permitted within the front yards and when located in the rear yards, shall be removed immediately upon completion of the permanent facility. 6. All loading/service, refuse, outdoor storage and staging areas must be concealed from public right-of-way view to the greatest extent possible and located at the rear of the building. Year-round screening may consist of walls and plant materials. Wall screening materials must be compatible with the primary structure. The extent of the screen wall and plantings shall be subject to VBDA approval. 7. Those uses permitted in I-1 are permitted on the Property. Those uses requiring a Conditional Use Permit from City Council shall continue to do so. 8. The Innovation Park Design and Development Guidelines, dated January 2023, is attached hereto as Exhibit B and incorporated herein by reference for additional specifications, conditions and requirements related to design requirements, improvements by VBDA, site design, parking, fencing, landscape and plantings, signage, building design, building materials and palette, and exterior lighting in the Innovation Park. • Attachments: Staff Report and Disclosure Statements Proposed Design and Development Guidelines - Innovation Park - January 2023 Detailed List of Changes Location Map Proffer Agreement Minutes of Planning Commission Hearing Design and Development Guidelines - Princess Anne Commons Biomedical Park — November 2016 Recommended Action: Staff recommends Approval.

It was envisioned that the rezoning of the property would assist the Virginia Beach Development Authority (VBDA) in marketing the site as the "VA Beach Bio Research Park" (Bio Park)to support medical and research institutions. As part of this Conditional Rezoning Agreement,the applicant established Design and Development Guidelines to ensure the Park would be attractive and developed cohesively. Ultimately,the planned Bio Park did not align with market demands, leaving the majority of the Park vacant. • In response to recent growth in other industry sectors,the applicant seeks to amend the Proffer Agreement and Design and Development Guidelines to expand the Park's focus to research, education,technology, manufacturing, finance, business,and other commercial uses. • The proposed revision to the Design and Development Guidelines would apply to approximately 113 of the total 146 acres as depicted in the Site Layout Plan on Page 9 of this report. The remaining portion of the Park would remain under the 2016 Guidelines. • The new Design & Development Guidelines seek to: o change the name of the Park from "Princess Anne Commons Biomedical Park"to "Innovation Park", o update photos/illustrations, o reduce redundancy and better align the document with current codes and requirements, o permit more flexibility with new and innovative materials and construction methods, and o provide more guidance on light industrial and advanced manufacturing building types. • Letters were mailed to property owners within the Park to allow them an opportunity to be party to this application. One property owner,YCH, LLC, accepted. • The Park is located within the 65-70 and 70-75 dB DNL noise zone of the AICUZ and within the Interfacility Traffic Area (ITA). • The applicant appeared before the Transition Area/ Interfacility Traffic Area Committee (TA/ITA) on March 2, 2023, to brief the Committee on the proposal. The Committee raised concerns over the changes to the Design Criteria and Development Guidelines and the overall change in the vision for the Park. No definitive decision was made, and no vote was taken.

So now we'll move on to the next, the regular agenda, which we have one item, it's not, there's no opposition, but just for clarity, we want to go ahead and hear it just so that the public can hear exactly what the Virginia Beach Development Authority is offering. Thank you. Madam Clerk: Thank you Mr. Chairman. Our final agenda item is agenda item number two, City of Virginia Beach Development Authority. It's an application for a Modification of Proffers on parcels located between 2009 Hudome Way to Tournament Drive, and a parcel on the Southeast corner of Princess Anne Road and Tournament Drive located in council District two. Ms. Archer: Good afternoon. Thank you, Commissioner, members of the Commission; I'm Emily Archer with Economic Development, a project coordinator with the office, representing the Virginia Beach Development Authority for this application. I have a few slides if you allow me to go through them to help explain that. This is located off of Hudome way in Princess Anne Road in District two. Existing conditions, it's mostly open farm field at the moment. We are requesting the Modification of Proffers really to update the design guidelines for the business park. Everything in yellow that you see is owned by the Virginia Beach Development Authority and will be applied to this updated proffers and design guidelines. In January, there are two other owners within the Innovation Park, YCH, LLC and Acoustical Sheet Metal, and they were both notified in January and asked if they would like to be party to this application. YCH, LLC in red up on the screen, asked to be a co- applicant. I don't see them here but, so everything except what is shown in orange will fall under these new proffers that we're requesting. And the orange will remain under the old 2016 proffers. A little bit about the Innovation Park, it's 150 acre Business Park that was conveyed to the Virginia Beach Development Authority in 2016 by Council. It currently is governed by existing proffers and guidelines that were adopted in 2016. It is also highlighted for vision in the ITA, Interfacility Traffic Area plan in 2017. You can see that, the vision was to incorporate regional trail network that the wooded area be preserved, which is mostly wetlands that the development be consistent with the design guidelines adopted at that time and that the stormwater best management practices be employed. Many of those still remain but what has changed is that the park was initially envisioned to house biomedical office buildings, and we found that that biomedical ecosystem of Virginia Beach really needed to boost first. We have since opened a bio-accelerator at Bendix Road for small incubator kind of businesses to help build up that ecosystem within Virginia Beach that will hopefully lead to more larger developments that could still go within the Innovation Park. And then also within that time, the market has really shifted to more industrial sectors growing within our economy, while the focus still remains technology and manufacturing supporting the field of scientific innovations. The density of the park has also changed based on the updated stormwater regulations for the city requiring larger BMPs and more of them to accommodate the development that was envisioned there. So why this is really needed is to keep up with market future and current marking conditions within the city. As mentioned, the existing design guidelines really built, designed for that medical office user and we're finding as more industrial users come in, it's the, the guidelines isn't in the document as needed to address those type of larger format industrial buildings to still achieve the static qualities as the park was always envisioned to achieve the higher level of statics within the park. So update to the guidelines to help permit those types of buildings to come in, and provide developers and staff guidance on how to get there with every applicant. The guidelines are broken into overall changes highlighted here, but also a building section and a site plan section are briefly covered the changes in those sections. The change of the cover on the name from Virginia Beach Bio Park to the Innovation Park of course, the whole document has been reformatted with updated photos of Princess Anne Commons in context of the park and it's very user friendly and easier to kind of find the information you need, as well as there's another end section that talks all about the approval process with VBDA for guidance on what steps the applicant will be asked to follow. In the site design section, there's been a lot of editing of the landscape and planting requirements. There's an existing typewritten section under the existing appendix guidelines that have been incorporated into the text and edited for clarity and redundancy with our zoning landscape ordinance. There are still requirements for landscape and planting as well above and beyond the landscape ordinance such as enhanced entry drives as you see on the screen, irrigation around all planting beds and sod rather than seed for grass area. There's a new fencing section that talks about if fencing is required for security. It should only be in the rear side of the property and coupled with planting and decorative and sustainable in nature. Outdoor amenity spaces are encouraged in the new document and there's a new signage section that dresses, signage requirements again above and beyond what's in the signage ordinance for the city. In the building design category as mentioning there's more examples and guidance for advanced manufacturing and light industrial facilities, including a wider material pallet. More guidance provided for outdoor staging and storage, provided that if they're, if they are employing those uses that they're in the rear of the property and screened you around with walls and landscape material, there's an existing parking structure section in the existing design guidelines that we felt the park would never really achieve that level of density to require parking structure and that has been removed. And then, can see a bit about our schedule. Signs are posted around the park. It's been to be the Development Authority as well as the ITA Committee last week here today and hopefully City Council in April. Thank you. Mr. Alcaraz: Thank you, Ms. Archer for doing that, thank you. Is there any questions for Ms Archer? Okay, go ahead. Mr. Horsley: I don't, I don't really have any questions. I just got a couple of comments that, you know, after seeing and hearing your presentation this morning and understanding what we had established years ago is the Biomedical Park isn't, coming to fruition and we've going to try to do some type of industrial there, I think that's probably a wise decision and the main thing that we want to concur with, and I think we do, is that it has to be done in a very tasteful manner because this is on the gateway to coming into the city hall and we wanna make sure it's done in a very tasteful and lovely manner that people would, they come and visit our city so, and I think according to the information you provide us this morning, it seems like that's headed in that direction. So I have no problem with changing to Innovation Park. I don't think that's a, I think, I think that's probably a very good move, so I would support the application. Mr. Alcaraz: Alright, thank you Mr. Horsley. Is there any other comments or questions? None, like to entertain a motion. Mr. Horsley: Having said what I did before, I'll make a motion that we'll approve the application. Mr. Plumlee: I'll second. Mr. Alcaraz: Second by, Mr. Plumlee, thank you. Madam Clerk: The vote is open. Madam Clerk: Mr. Clemons can I get your verbal vote? Aye or nay? Mr. Clemons: Aye. Madam Clerk: Thank you. By recorded vote of seven in favor, zero against agenda item number two has been recommended for approval.

Much of the increase in the size of the area came after December 2005,when the Comprehensive Plan,Zoning Ordinance,and related development ordinances were amended to protect the Interfacility Traffic Area (ITA) between NAS Oceana and NALF Fentress from development.An Interfacility Traffic Area Overlay District was adopted, consisting of areas having an AICUZ greater than 65 dB DNL. Due to the incompatibility of residential uses in the higher AICUZ of the ITA, one of the principal effects of this new designation was to reduce the residential density to what could be achieved by right with Agricultural zoning (one unit per 15 acres).A second,and what has proven to be a more significant effect was an increase in the area owned by the City of Virginia Beach,as the City and U.S. Navy began a program of purchasing property voluntarily offered to the City by private property owners. 3 :-!� , � %' 1 Princess Anne Commons now offers the prospect to '' `- •4 • ex and on the on originalgoals established for it, roviding k _ ;, 44.,..* , , ... - . -„-- : ., unique education, medical,entertainment, recreation, 0 habitat preservation,and quality economic amPHm a tik ► - development opportunities.Additionally,the AI PA ATHLETICccirt_3 .

Specifically,the purposes of the Guidelines are as follows: a. Assist property owners and developers regarding appropriate site, building,and sign design; Page 1-2/Introduction Design and Development Guide/Biomedical Park November 2016 Introduct on 1 b. Encourage innovation and creativity in the design and use of sites and buildings; and c. Enhance the visual appeal,and thus the general ambience of the Commons. Eventually,there will be several sets of Guidelines for the different types of development and activities that are envisioned for Princess Anne Commons.This document,however, provides design and development guidance for the "VABeachBio Research Park"that will develop within Princess Anne Commons Biomedical Park.This 'BioPark'will develop parallel to the southern side of Princess Anne Road,stretching from Landstown Centre Way at the west to Tournament Drive at the east.The graphic below shows the location of the BioPark in relationship to existing and proposed development in North Princess Anne Commons. c # • GAI R r f r - (Fieidhouse ' .„E, ' la Sportsplex) ' I ' {d WISPS- ,PB- {.

Page 1-6/Introduction Design and Development Guide/Biomedical Park November 2016 2 SITE PLANNING General Guidelines - Landscaping Princess Anne Commons is first,and most importantly,a park-thus,the name `Commons.'The buildings,uses,and all physical changes should have a strong emphasis on the landscaped environment.This emphasis will provide an overall visual continuity throughout the Commons and will serve as a backdrop for the development of each individual site. During the individual site development stage,the landscape architect and site designer should give careful consideration and analysis to respond to surrounding site components such as site context, open space,landmarks,views and vistas,streetscapes,and the protection of existing vegetation. 111 During the design process, begin by identifying existing natural characteristics of the rj site that should be ¢ }` conserved. Natural site features and landform should be considered in the early stages of development met, v.. design prior to building placement. Natural site •• amenities may consist of a 4.1tv, } significant stand of trees, - unusual topographic A variety of tree species are located within Princess Anne Commons due to the site's previous use as a tree nursery conditions,natural drainage patterns,and similar natural features,and should be preserved to the greatest degree possible. Natural characteristics create a sense of place on undeveloped sites that can be expanded upon during the development process. Specific Standards Please see Appendix A-Section 1 for specific requirements related to landscape plantings, irrigation,site lighting,and site furniture.

Bicycle parking rack that also serves as public art Page 2-6/Site Planning Design and Development Guide/Biomedical Park November 2016 BUILDING DESIGN The relationship of buildings to the public and private spaces around them is critical to the overall success of the Princess Anne Commons BioPark. Building placement,massing,and appearance define this relationship.Each building's architectural style,form,architectural details, exterior materials,textures,and color work together to provide an environment that ensure quality and provide a sense of place that will remain memorable. Placement on Site & Architectural Style The following provides general guidelines pertaining to the placement of buildings on a site within Princess Anne Commons for corporate,research,medical facilities,and academic buildings.Construction of all such facilities are governed by the City of Virginia Beach Zoning Ordinance and the Virginia Statewide Building Code,latest amended edition. In all cases, however,should there be a conflict between the guidelines and the Zoning Ordinance and/or the Building Code,latest amended edition,the Zoning Ordinance and/or Building Code prevail. Ill The general principal for building placement and architectural style is development of one-story or multi-story buildings (dependent on use),set in a landscaped environment that maintains an aesthetic continuity throughout the surrounding area. As noted in the Introduction of these Guidelines,there is a Design Vocabulary for Princess Anne Commons,and the existing buildings within the Commons stand as examples of the design style,materials,and colors to be used (see photo on next page and the photos in the Introduction). 11 Each designer is encouraged to express individuality and creativity while blending his or her design into the design context of the surrounding area. The general design context should reflect a high-quality,modern corporate image. Colonial era architectural elements may be integrated into the design; however,the overall architecture of the building should not be a replication of colonial era design. II All building designs will be subject to the approval of the City(through the Proffers of the Conditional Zoning Agreement) and the City of Virginia Beach Development Authority. It is intended that the architecture and landscape create a basic harmony of design throughout Princess Anne Commons such that no building,sign,landscape, or other element of the built environment will detract from the attractiveness of the overall environment. Building Mass The following provides general guidelines that emphasize the importance of the mass,scale, and proportion of buildings on a site within Princess Anne Commons for corporate, research, medical facilities,and academic buildings. In all cases,however,should there be a conflict Page 2-7/Site Planning Design and Development Guide/Biomedical Park November 2016 between the guidelines and the City of Virginia Beach Zoning Ordinance and/or the Virginia Statewide Building Code,latest amended edition,the Zoning Ordinance and/or Building Code prevail. • How the mass of a building is distributed on a site usually has the greatest impact on a project's overall appearance and its relationship to the surrounding area. As demonstrated by the building shown in the photograph below,breaking the footprint of a large building into smaller parts and varying a building's height is a valuable concept when designing large projects. • err• - - Y �!! : `�' i� .,.,,...... --'�_--_- i ii * i R :y Pi 4. . e 'm°°s --. x i i ii f� i■ k1 rli s i 1 ...ram . r■ I -�T. - :�=*�'lirWC* : , w !s IpV,—.41/;(1:. 1"gr— .1 JIMORP I WINN'1111A qiir7irsc:2•47...— ---"4,— ,..; -* "```'.:—'''' in- E i 1 Bl i i ! 1 _ ��. s Q III!

It is the well-balanced variety of building massing and textures of shadow,light,and material that,in total,add to the richness of Princess Anne Commons built environment. Building Facade ii Facades of buildings that face the street should incorporate cornices, expression of structural or architectural bays, recessed windows or doors,material or material module changes,color and/or texture differences,or strongly expressed mullions. Page 2-8/Site Planning Design and Development Guide/Biomedical Park November 2016 1111 As an example,the photograph below is of a building in a modern style with various components that integrate principles of sustainability into the overall design.While the style and integration of sustainability principles contributed to the large expanse of the facade,there are subtle changes that provide visual interest from an external perspective: ■ The rectangular grid pattern created by alternating the metal panels; ■ The triangular projection in the center of the façade (shown in the lower left of the photograph); and • The rectangular windows of the same size as the metal panels set into the facade at . `' p what appears from outside the 1 building to be ,if ' ¢random locations. , f l a I ' ' I l ' , 1 , • III All sides of a building should have continuity of design. No side should be unimproved. All architectural details,such as roof lines and parapets,should continue around all sides of a structure. Exterior Materials and Colors • Buildings should be of long-lived and sustainable materials, including brick, stone,tinted and textured concrete masonry,and glass. EIFS should not be Page 2-9/Site Planning Design and Development Guide/Biomedical Park November 2016 used below the first-floor elevation except when used as soffits.The material palette should provide variety, reinforce massing and changes in the horizontal or vertical plane. II An identifiable break should be provided ' between a building's ground or second ;-' f floor and the upper floors.This break may P. _ . A 1�: . consist of a change in material,change in - ..�, v fenestration, or similar means.As shown ' - in the photograph to the right,the pre-cast '` block and cornice around the windows L ° • . ,r provide such a break. ip.'OPT ` 4 ,;-._. , al Colors,materials,and finishes should be coordinated in a consistent manner on all f F - 11 r, elevations. t If i 7-.f0 In order to maintain aesthetic continuity _- a` within Princess Anne Commons,bright' :: iP 1 primary colors should not be used except � [� 0 E in limited use for building accents,such as entry doors or trim. , .1»i -, I L - The bright blue band above the firstfoor arcade level of .

The design,materials,and colors _ _ r'ernnn nm ft L` should be complementary with the main building. u Rooftop mechanical equipment(including ,., , elevator rooms) should be screened so as '� - -- - ' to be`invisible'from the ground adjacent i? to the building as well as from approaches to the building. Horizontal (flat) roof : . .+� _,�_F: '►. forms should be screened by extensions of . the building wall planes (parapet). � r -"ems•-- ��� r_. '� ■ .µ _ t Loading and trash collection areas should i .,� be concealed from view to the greatest 141001efiiO4 I extent possible and are ideally located inside the building. Access to these areas should be minimized and arranged so that " ) maneuvering is avoided on public streets. A vertical clearance of at least 14 feet is recommended. �. Parking Structures Traditionally,the design of parking structures takes a secondary position to the development of larger projects. Parking structures are often treated as nothing more than buildings having the sole function of providing a place for people to park their cars and not as an integral part of the design fabric of the locale. The following guidelines are for those instances when a parking garage is deemed the best parking solution.The guidelines are intended to encourage parking structures that will be integrated into the desired design fabric of Princess Anne Commons,so that ultimately,parking structures will be viewed as long-term,quality amenities to the city and not as utilitarian 'quick-fixes' for a parking problem.

COUNCIL DISTRICT 3, formerly Kernpsville MEETING DATE: April 4, 2023 ■ Background: The applicant is seeking a Modification of Conditions to a Conditional Use Permit for Multi-family Housing for Kempes Village, a mixed-use development approved by City Council on April 10, 2012. The applicant intends to modify the site layout, remove potential office uses, and increase the number of dwelling units from 170 to 186. The original plans for development included the adaptive reuse of Kempsville High School, construction of two, three-story apartment buildings, and two, two-story buildings called "The Cottages." The Cottages were planned to be mixed use with up to six apartment units in each building and office space on lower levels. The applicant reserved the option to use the proposed mixed-use buildings solely as offices. The current modification request relates exclusively to the plans for The Cottages, which are the only part of the initial plans that have not been constructed. The applicant is now proposing to construct one three-story apartment building at the intersection of Oakmears Crescent and Princess Anne Road. The building will be the same height as the existing apartment buildings and will use the same materials, colors, and general elevation design. With this plan, the applicant is proposing to add 18 dwelling units, increasing the overall number of units in the development to 186 for a density of 18.6 dwelling units per acre. Parking will be provided at a reduced ratio of 1.7 spaces for each unit in the development. ■ Considerations: Though the original proposal for Kempes Village included a mixed-use element, the proposal to modify the plans to solely residential is in-keeping with the vision of the Comprehensive Plan for the Kempsville area. The development will still provide multi-family housing immediately adjacent to major thoroughfares and the developing commercial node at the intersection of Kempsville Road and Princess Anne Road. The"L" shape of the new building neatly bookends the block, mirroring the adapted Kempsville High School building, and providing building frontage on Kernpes Village Two, LLC Page 2 of 3 all public rights-of-way. As the proposed building will be constructed with the same design and materials as the existing apartment buildings, the overall development will remain cohesive. Sufficient landscaping is provided per the submitted concept landscaping plan, and the applicant has added plantings along the edge of the parking lot adjacent to the sidewalk on Princess Anne Road. The Zoning Administrator approved the reduced parking ratio of 1.7 spaces per unit since the development is within close proximity to several different modes of transit and there is existing pedestrian connectivity with nearby amenities. The requested increase in the overall density of the project conforms with the recent amendment to Section 2004 of the Zoning Ordinance, approved by the City Council on March 7, 2023, which allows a maximum of 24 units per acre in the Historic Kempsville Area Overlay District. The new density of 18.6 units per acre is compatible with adjacent development in this area. Further details pertaining to the application, as well as Staff's evaluation, are provided in the attached Staff Report. There is no known opposition to this request. • Recommendation: On March 8, 2023, the Planning Commission passed a motion to recommend this item on the Consent Agenda, by a recorded vote of 6-0, with 1 abstention to recommend approval of this request. 1. All conditions attached to the existing Conditional Use Permits approved by the Virginia Beach City Council on April 10, 2012 shall be null and void and replaced with the conditions listed below. 2. The site shall be developed substantially as shown on the submitted Site Plan, entitled "Overall Development of 525 Kempsville", prepared by AES Consulting Engineers, and dated January 17, 2023, which has been exhibited to the Virginia Beach City Council and is on file in the Department of Planning and Community Development. 3. The maximum number of dwelling units shall not exceed 186. 4. The applicant shall provide parking per the parking evaluation submitted by AES Consulting Engineers dated February 13, 2023 and as approved by the Zoning Administrator on February 20, 2023. 5. Exterior building materials and colors for the buildings to be constructed on the site shall be substantially as shown on the submitted elevations entitled "Historic Kempsville Apartments, Virginia Beach, Virginia," prepared by TS3 Architecture, and dated January 26, 2023, which have been exhibited to the Virginia Beach City Council and are on file in the Department of Planning and Community Development.

The applicant plans to alter the previously approved site layout, increase the overall number of dwelling units, and revise the previously proposed mixed-use buildings. • The plans submitted with the Conditional Use Permit in 2012 proposed a mixed-use development fronting Princess Anne Road and Kempsville Road. It included the proposed adaptive reuse of Kempsville High School, construction of two additional apartment buildings, and construction of two,two-story buildings called "The Cottages" at the corner of Lord Dunmore Drive and Princess Anne Road. The Cottages were proposed to be mixed-use with up to six apartments in each building and office space on lower stories. The applicant reserved the option to use the buildings solely as offices. As proposed,The Cottages were the only buildings in the development to have a non-residential use. • Up to 170 multi-family units were approved with the request in 2012 and 168 units have been constructed to date. • The applicant currently seeks to revise their concept for The Cottages. Instead of two,two-story mixed-use buildings, the applicant proposes one three-story apartment building that will have 18 apartment units. It will be L- shaped with frontage on Oakmears Crescent and Princess Anne Road.The proposed modification will result in a total of 186 multi-family units with a density of 1.86 units per acre for the entire development. • The proposed apartment building will use the same elevation design, materials, and color palette as the two existing apartment buildings. • A monument style sign is proposed near the intersection of Oakmears Crescent and Princess Anne Road.This sign, as proposed, will be a duplicate of a brick monument style sign that was installed on the east side of the site. • With the revised site layout,the applicant proposes to expand a portion of an existing parking lot to provide an additional 32 parking spaces for the new apartment building. The applicant is proposing a ratio of 1.7 parking spaces per unit for this development and submitted a parking study to the Zoning Administrator that demonstrates there will be sufficient parking for the development at a ratio less than what is required per Section 203(a)(12). • Part of the property falls within the Resource Protection Area (RPA) of the Chesapeake Bay Protection Area (CBPA). A variance was obtained from the CBPA Board in 2012 for the previous development plan for the site.The variance permitted a certain amount of impervious cover to be installed on the site. The revised proposal was presented to CBPA Staff for consideration and Staff determined that the proposed modification is in substantial conformance to the 2012 variance approval.

The Comprehensive Plan recommends residential uses with a central village green for this area of Kempsville.Though the original proposal included a mixed-use element that will be removed with this modification, Staff still finds the overall proposal to be in-keeping with the vision of the Comprehensive Plan by providing multi-family housing immediately adjacent to major thoroughfares and the developing commercial node at the intersection of Kempsville Road and Princess Anne Road. Sufficient landscaping is provided per the submitted concept landscaping plan, and the applicant has added planting along the edge of the parking lot that will be near the sidewalk on Princess Anne Road. The additional plantings will help to soften and screen the parking area. As the proposed building will be constructed with the same building elevation design and materials as the existing apartment buildings,the overall development will remain cohesive.The "L" shape of the new building neatly bookends the block, mirroring the adapted Kempsville Highschool building, and providing building frontage on all public rights-of- way.The new building is proposed to be the same height as the existing buildings. While this is an increase in building height compared to the previously approved two-story buildings, Staff finds it to be an acceptable change as a consistent height reinforces the overall sense of cohesion of the development. The Fairfield Civic League and Historic Kempsville Citizen Advisory Committee both provided letters of support for the application, including the new building height. There is a proposed amendment to the Zoning Ordinance that would increase the maximum residential density in B-4K Mixed Use from 18 units per acre to 24 units per acre. This amendment is scheduled to be heard at the March 7, 2023 City Council hearing. If this amendment is adopted,the proposed density of the site will be below the maximum density for the B-4K Mixed Use zoning district.The proposed density of the development as revised will be 18.06 units per acre. Kempes Village Two, LLC Agenda Item 4 Page 3 The proposed changes will not further affect the Chesapeake Bay Resource Management Area or the Chesapeake Bay Resource Protection Area. The revisions are within the level of impact as assessed under the previously approved Chesapeake Bay Protection Area Board variance,granted in 2012. Typically, parking for multi-family dwelling developments follow Section 203(12) at a ratio of two spaces for the first 50 dwelling units and a ratio of 1.75 spaces for each remaining unit. Across the entire residential development,there will be 186 units, including the 18 proposed with this revised plan. While 338 parking spaces are required, 316 spaces will be provided.The applicant has submitted a parking plan to the Zoning Administrator that illustrates that a reduced ratio of 1.7 spaces per unit in the development will provide sufficient parking. The Zoning Administrator reviewed a parking study dated February 10, 2023 and determined that the proposed parking ratio of 1.7 spaces per unit can reasonably accommodate the development as the owner has experienced no significant regular parking problems with the existing community at a reduced parking ratio of 1.7 spaces per unit;there is an existing Hampton Roads Transit stop located along the property frontage; several multi-purpose paths are proposed with this project improving connectivity with adjacent residential and commercial areas, as well as Kempes Landing Park and Patriot's Park.;and the project is within two miles of the existing Light Rail stop at Newtown Road. When the Conditional Use Permit was initially approved in 2012, a condition of approval included the requirement that the applicant complete a Traffic Impact Study.That study was completed, and various traffic improvements have been made since that time, including completion of the widening of Witchduck Road and the signalization of the intersection of Lord Dunmore Drive and Princess Anne Road. With these improvements and with the reduction in the number of trips generated by removing the proposed office use, Staff does not anticipate any adverse traffic impact as a result of this modification. Based on information provided by the Virginia Beach Public Schools Staff,there will be a negligible impact on school enrollment in the nearby schools.The elementary, middle, and high schools in this area all have enrollment below their optimum capacity and only two elementary school students are anticipated to be generated with the additional apartment units and one student each for the middle school and high school.This change in number of students is well within the current capacities of the school system. In sum, Staff recommends approval of this request subject to the conditions and exhibits included in this staff report. Recommended Conditions 1.

Comprehensive Plan Recommendations This proposal is located in the Suburban area of the city, within the Historic Kempsville Overlay District and Historic Kempsville Suburban Focus Area. The Comprehensive Plan recommends residential uses with a village green and secondary non-residential uses in this part of Historic Kempsville. The overall vision for this area is to recreate a village setting, building on the natural setting and historic character and importance of the area.To reach these outcomes, developments should create a distinct sense of place, provide safe pedestrian movement,and be designed to be compatible with the surrounding area while not generating significant traffic increases to the area. According to the proposed elevations,the new development will be a continuation of the existing architectural style,which is in keeping with the Architectural Design Guidelines within in the Historic Kempsville Plan and would be supported by the Comprehensive Plan. Natural & Cultural Resources Impacts The site is located in the Chesapeake Bay Watershed in the vicinity of the Chesapeake Bay Resource Protection Area. The site is also located in the Historic Kempsville Overlay District, a zoning overlay intended to enhance the appearance of the area and to guide development in a historically significant location in Virginia Beach.There are no historical or cultural resources located on this parcel that will be affected by this project.

HK-CAC would like the maximum density of multiple-family dwellings increased to nineteen (19) units per acre, or the maximum density permitted by the regulations of the underlying zoning district,whichever is the lesser, on a zoning lot. This motion was the result of many months of collaborative work and communication between two of our members,the developer Ripley Heatwole Company and the neighboring Fairfield Civic League, and the HK-CAC itself. Prior to taking up this motion the HK-CAC heard a report made on behalf of the Fairfield Civic League detailing an understanding reached with the developer, attached,to finally resolve the longstanding lighting issues with the existing 525 Apartments impacting Fairfield residents nearby. Please do not hesitate to contact me if you have any questions about this matter.

MEETING DATE: April 4, 2023 ■ Background: On September 15, 2020, the City Council approved an Ordinance to amend Section 104 of the City Zoning Ordinance, to allow civil penalties to be assessed for violations of"Section 241.2, or Section 1903, regarding only short term rentals." The current amendment proposed provides additional clarification of the sections of the Ordinance that could be assessed as a civil penalty and corrects a typographical error in the original ordinance adopted in 2020. If approved this amendment would: • Allow a civil penalty to be assessed for any section of the Zoning Ordinance which applies to the use of property as a short term rental. • Removes Section 1903 which was a typographical error in the original adopted ordinance and includes the appropriate reference, Section 2303 • Considerations: This amendment proposes to amend Section 104 of the City Zoning Ordinance, to provide additional clarification on how violations and penalties of the Ordinance are assessed. Most zoning violations are criminal misdemeanors. Section 104(b) lists specific sections of the ordinance for which a civil penalty can be assessed, specifically those sections relating to signage and short term rentals. A zoning civil penalty is assessed at two hundred dollars ($200.00) for the initial summons and not more than five hundred dollars ($500.00) for each additional summons. When such civil penalties total five thousand dollars ($5,000.00) or more, the violation may be prosecuted as a criminal misdemeanor. Further details pertaining to the ordinance, as well as Staff's evaluation, are provided in the attached Staff Report. There is no known opposition to this request. • Recommendation: On March 8, 2023, the Planning Commission passed a motion to recommend this item on the Consent Agenda, by a recorded vote of 7-0 to recommend approval of this request.
