CHANC;ES IN READING OF CCMPREHENSIVE
PLAN-BA,YSIDE MMY AREA
Page 19-DENSI'IY
The density for new develo@t in Bayside has averaged 10.4 units per acre.
This increase has occurred because of the shift toward constructim of nulti-family
units and the developnient of residential areas at maxinm zoning densities. This
tendency toward higher density ahould be abated.
Page @'PROJECRIONS
The Comprehensive Plan recomtlends a housing mix of single and rulti-family
develo@t that will deter the current trend toward higher densit soide.
If the trend towar er s3-ty reS3. entj-ai deveiommt were a to ccur
through the entire plaming period, two things nay occur in t e y
1. the projected housing mix niay be significantly altered, with the being
primrily t es and apar@ts; and
2. it can be anticipated that future population will exceed the Conprehensive
Plan rec@dations.
Page 22-A. Residential Development
Approxiniately 75 percent of the undeveloped land area r s to be developed
residentially in this area. Within the P'.- 'Ld, the Baker Road/Diammd Spr

The areas between Newtom Road and the proposed extension of Wesleym Drive and
the area scruth of Virginia Wesleyan College can also acccmd&te an average residential
density of 3 units per acre. The area south of Newtown Road and north of Virginia Beach

A TRANSITION FROM URBAN TO RURAL
WFHE GFTEEN LINEN
Virginia Beach encompasses an area of approximately 300 square
miles. The northern half of the City can be characterized as
urban and the southern as rural , general ly speaking. The City's
rapid growth Is proceeding In the form of urbanization moving
In a southerly direction a5 land converts from agricultural to
higher density residential commercial and Industrial. The man-
agementof thistrendisessential lnordertominimlzetheconflicts
which arise frorn the locatlon of Incompatible uses In close proximity
to one another. In addition, the tendency for urbanization beyond
available fnfrasturcture must be regulated In order to r(laintain
an orderly and predictable transition which can be balanced with
the requ[site upgrading of facilities and service5, from those
levels necessary to serve a rural area to those necessary to
serve an urban area.
The Plan therefore provides a method of orderly transition from
urban, where facilities are planned or programmed to accornmodate
growth, to rural, where the facilities are planned to serve a
predominantly rural population, thus malntaining the traditional
values and economies of the agricultural Industry. The place
where this transition occurs Is displayed graphtcally in the
Land Use Plan and has come to be known as the "Gr,-,en Line". The
Green Line Is the City's most effective tool in managing this
transftion. It Is shown In tl)is plan and divides the City Into
two geographic parts. North of the Green Llne lie those areas
where faclifties are adequate to support urban development or
where efforts will be made to make them adequate within what
Is deemed to be a reasonable period of time. South of the Green
Line lie those areas where facilities are not adequate for urban
developmentand wherenoeffortsare beingmadeto Install facilities
to support additional development In the near future. Because
of this distlnction the Green Llne may be viewed as a line, below
which rezoning toencourage urbanization will not have therequ[site
supporting facilities to merlt approval.The Green Line is not
a permanent feature, but Is subject to change as conditions and
community standards related to adequacy of facilities change.
As the City makes progress toward Its goal of reducing the time
delay between growth and facility adequacy, it may be desirable
to change the locatlon of the Green Line accordingly.

PROPOSED WORDING:
A TRANSITION FROM URBAN TO RT)RAL
ME GREEN LINER
Virginia Beach encompasses an area of approximately ;00 5quare
miles. The northern half of the City can be characterized as
urban and the southern as rural, generally speaking. The City's
rapid growth Is proceeding In the form of urbanizatlon moving
In a southerly direction as land converts from agricultural to
higher density residential commercial and Industrial. The man-
agementof thistrend lsessential lnordertominimizetheconflicts
which arise from the location of incompatible uses In close proximity
to one another. In addftlon, the tendency for urbanization beyond
available infrasturcture must be regulated In order to maintain
an orderly and predictable transition which can be balanced with
the requisite upgrading of facilities and services, frorri those
levels necessary to serve a rural area to those necessary to
serve an urban area.
The Plan therefore provides a method of orderly transition fron,
urban, where facilities are planned or programmed to accommodate
growth, to rural, where the facllities are planned to serve a
predorninantly rural population, thus maintaining the traditional
values and economies of the agricultural Industry. The place
where this transition occurs Is displayed graphically In the
Land Use Plan and has come to be known as the "Green Line". The
Green Line Is the City's most effective tool in managing thi@
transition. It Is shown In this plan and divides the City Into
two geographtc parts. North of the Green Line lie those areas
where facilitles are adequate to support urban development or
where efforts will be made to make them a(iequdte within what
Is deemed to be a reasonable period of time. South of tl)e Creen
Line lie those areas where facilities are not adequate for urban
developmentandwherenoeffort5arebeingmddeto Install facilities
to support additional development in the near tuture. Some of
these areas, however, are currently zoned for development which
would be associated more with an urbanized area than with a rural
area even though they lie below the Green Line. Therefore, due
to their proxlmlty to the Green Line Itself and the need for
an orderly transition from urban to rural In this general area,
an lmpi"entation plan shall be prepared which will phase and
sequence the provision of municipal facilities and services for
the gradual transition of these areas from their rural nature
to the uses allowed under existing zoning provided no serious
environmental constraints preclude such development. The Green
L i ne may then be v I eved as a I I ne, be I ow wh i ch rozon I ng to encourage
further density Increases wiII not have the addlttonal supporting
facilities above those set forth in the fmplewntation plan to
merit approval. The Green Line Is not a permanent feature, but
is subject to change as conditions and community standards related
to adequacy of facilities change. As the City makes progress
January 21, 1985

toward Its goal of reducing the time delay between growth and
facility adequacy, It my be desirable to change the location
of the Green Line In accor-dance wlth an established Implementation
plan designed to provide adequate facilities and services for
that purpose. However. this Plan shall be construed as r nding
no Increase In residential density beyond what Is now allowed
by rlght or conditional use permit under the existing zoning
on property south of the Green Line for the next flve years.

The Study Area Is separated Into two distinct districts by the

line along Sandbridge Road and Princess Anne Road. The line Is
drawn along this corridor based on the availability and adequacy
of public facilities, especially the road system, to handle the

In residential density beyond what Is now allowed by right or
