AGENDA ITEM
ITEM
An Ordinance to Amend and Reordaln Section 7-9 of the City Code
Pertaining to B~cycle Equipment Requirements and Advertising
Proh~b~bons
MEETING DATE March 4, 2003
Background The C~ty Code currently prohibits the d~splay of adverbsements on
motor vehicles and prohibits signs and advertisements oriented toward the Atlanbc
Ocean and Chesapeake Bay beaches The C~ty Code does not, however, address
the ~ssue of advertisements on rented b~cycles and s~m~lar equipment on the
Boardwalk or adjacent bicycle path
Considerations
The amendment would prohibit the posbng of advertisements on b~cycles and
s~mdar equipment used on the Boardwalk or bicycle path east of Atlantic Avenue
The amendment would, however, allow such equipment to carry one small s~gn
~dent~fymg the name and Iocabon of the rental establishment

On December 30, 2002, the apphcant submitted a revised plan and proffers for
this development The apphcant submitted the revised plan and proffers ~n order
to bnng the plan into closer consistency w~th what the apphcant perceived the
recommendations of the Transition Area Techmcal Advisory Committee (TATAC)
would be The plan under cons~derabon for March 4 ~s that same plan, d~scussed
below
Conslderat,ons
The applicant ~s requesting a Change of Zomng district class~hcat~on from AG-1
and AG-2 to Conditional R-30, a Conditional Use Permit for an Open Space
Promotion, and a Subdwls~on Vanance to reduce the required street w~dth
The applicant's revised plan, submitted on December 20, 2002, proposes to
develop a 65 1 acre s~te into 65 residential lots resulting in an overall density of 1
dwelhng unit per acre The request consists of a Conditional Use Permit for R-30
Open Space Promotion that allows the square footage of the home s~tes to be a
minimum of 18,000 square feet, although the actual size of the proposed lots
ranges between 18,057 and 24,820 square feet Th~s allows a greater
percentage of the parcel to remain in "open space" for park space (passive
recreation ~n this case) and scenic wstas with the goal of creating openness
within the development as one travels through ~t Approximately 32 acres of land
(50 percent of the total area) w~ll be estabhshed for passive recreational open
space The mm~mum open space requirement of the R-30 open space promotion
option ~s 15 percent, however, the new Intenm Transition Area Gu~dehnes
recommend that developments str~ve for 50% open space, which th~s
development meets
The revised plan has been assessed against the new Translbon Area Matnx
Staff's assessment of the plan resulted ~n a score of 10 8 out of 11 possible
points, translating to 64 5 dwelling umts A copy of the assessment ~s attached

and other provisions of the rewsed plan ~nto consistency with the language of the
proffers The proffers also ~nclude an ~ncrease the amount of money contnbuted
to the C~ty per lot for the purpose of acqu~nng land for open space purposes
consistent with the Outdoors Plan The amount has increased from $750 to
$1000, for a total of $65,000
Recommendatmns

recommends that residential development ~n th~s area adhere to the follow~ng
gu~dehnes
Create h~gh quahty neighborhoods through careful planmng of land uses,
transportabon systems, landscape treatments and pubhc ~mprovements
(page 72 Pohcy Document)
Staff Comment The goal/s to create a sense of openness by
maintaining a large, landscape entrance (approximately 6 acres) and a
swath of open space through the ~ntenor of the s/te The applicant has
proposed a neighborhood that maintains scenic vistas as one travels
through the development and ~ncorporates an extensive pedestnan tra#
system throughout w/th thought to future connections as well Along w/th
the well-planned pedestnan system, park benches and large picnic
shelters are proposed w~th/n the open space area
Design w~th nature, making a special effort to preserve and showcase
s~gn~flcant enwronmental resoumes Carefully ~ntegrate such natural
features and use them as a bas~s, where possible, to enhance and dehne
neighborhoods, recreabon areas, open spaces, and wews of special
natural areas (page 72)
Staff Comment The amount of s~gn~f~cant enwronmental features on th~s
s/te was limited A stand of trees exists/n the southeast comer of the s/te
It was essential that th~s single enwronmental feature be ~ncorporated into
the overall design of the subd/ws/on /n terms of the number of homes/n
the wooded area, m/n/m/zmg the s~ze of the lots, parhcularly /n this area of
the site, and forethought on the actual Iocabon of the proposed homes
w/thin the woods so as to m~n/m~ze d~sturbance The design establishes a
means for an expectabon that adjacent pamels, should they ever develop,
respect the efforts to maintain a natural buffer of value In add/bon to
preserving the majority of the trees w/th~n this stand, open areas are
proposed/n strategic locations along the roadway to establish a sense of
openness as one travels through the development
Construct local roads w~th m~mmal pavement w~dth, w~de shoulders and

Staff Comment The proposed 50 foot right-of-way that serves as the
single access to North Landing Road ~s a departure from the typical urban
/ntenor road design of 30 feet of pavement The road width will be 24 feet
with four (4) feet of paved shoulder on either side of the road Beyond the
pavement, adjacent to the street, streetllghts and street trees are
proposed A five (5) foot wide concrete sidewalk is proposed beyond the
trees and lights that serve as a buffer between the pedestrian and
vehicular traffic A swale is then proposed within a ten (10) foot utility and
drainage easement As discussed above, a network of trails and
sidewalks is proposed within the development with future potential
connections w/th adjacent properties
Growth m th~s area should be wewed as a special type of development
w~th ~ts own standards suitable to the character of the area The
development standards should be enwronmentally sensitive, ~nclud~ng
narrow streets w~th less pavement, rural drainage techniques and
appropnate aesthetic treatments The transition area ~s to be seen as a
recreational mecca w~th res~denhal development only ~f ~t supports the
pnmary purpose of advancing open space and recreational uses
Residential uses w~thout an open space element are not encouraged
(page 73)
Staff Comment This development proposal consists of 25 2 acres or 39
percent of the 65 1 acres as dedicated passive open space In addition,
the applicant has proffered $750 O0 per lot for a total of $48,750 O0 to be
used for the purchase of open space pursuant to the City's Outdoors Plan
The cash proffer, combined with the amount of open space and the
"usability" of the proposed open areas, lends support to the conclusion
that this project appears to qualify as one that will advance public
accessibility to open space and recreabonal uses with the residential
component as minor
Development that takes place in the transition area should be fiscally
neutral Fiscally neutral means that development must both a) generate
more in tax revenue than the public services cost to support ~t, and b) be
of such a density that, when coupled w~th ex~stmg and potential
development ~n the area, it w~ll not generate the need for substantial
infrastructure ~mprovements As an alternative to hscal neutrality, cash
proffers to offset negative hscal ~mpacts can be considered In the
absence of a hnd~ng of fiscal neutral, there should be an extraordinary
public benefit to be denved from the project (page 74)

Staff Comment While the cash proffers could aid/n balancing projects
that do not appear to be fiscally neutral, the proposed cash proffers/n this
instance are specifically designated for the purchase of open space In
light of th/s, upon examination of the quality of the bulld/ng mater/als and
the value and amen/t/es w/th~n the open space and the character of the
surrounding development, these houses w/Il have a value of
approximately $350,000 to $450,000 and up In add/t/on, access to water
and sewer is ava#able along North Landing Road, however, plans and
bonds for construction of both the water and sewer systems w/fl be
required The development w/fl not generate the need for the City to incur
any substantial expense due to infrastructure improvements The
Department of Public Utilities/s currently upgrading the ex/sbng system
along this portlon of North Landing Road
The enhre project should be developed at a density that ~s the lowest of
the following 1 estabhshes the res~denbal as secondary, 2 assures that
the project ~s m keeping w~th the character of the transition area, and 3
generates no more traffic than the equivalent of one (1) dwelhng unit per
developable acre (page 74)
Staff Comment At the request of City Council, staff developed a set of
criteria for assessing a development's consistency w/th the
Comprehensive Plan's poi/c/es for the Trans/t/on Area The result was the
establishment of a '~rans/bon Area Matnx' that/s now used to calculate
the potent/al denslty of a development proposal/n the trans/bon area
Application of the matrix to the submitted plan resulted ~n a final "rating"
that would allow a max/mum of 64 dwelling un/ts on the property The
applicant/s requesbng 65 un/ts A factor that must be entered into the
equation, however,/s the fact that the matrix calls for venation/n lot size
for the purpose of clustenng and ga/mng open space This component of
the plan scored relatively Iow A sign/f/cant issue, however,/s the recent
opinion expressed by several City Council members to other rezomng
apphcants ~n the Transition Area to have a m~nlmum lot size of 20, O00
square feet This applicant, knowing that several Counc# members
expressed that opinion, redesigned the proposed layout a number of bmes
to lncrease the lot sizes to the des/red 20,000 square feet while still trying
to ach/eve the other objectives as expressed by the Trans/t/on Area

Summary of Proposal
Proposal
· The apphcant ~s proposing to develop a 65 1 acre s~te ~nto 65 residential lots
resulting ~n an overall density of 1 dwelhng unit per acre The request consists of a
Cond]bonal Use Permit for R-30 Open Space Promobon that allows the square
footage of the home s~tes to be a m~mmum of 18,000 square feet However, the
proposed lots range m s~ze from 20,000 square feet to 25,000 square feet The
reducbon from 30,000 square feet as required under straight R-30 zoning allows a
greater percentage of the 65 acre parcel to remain ~n "open space" for park space
(passive recreation ~n th~s case) and scemc wstas w~th the goal of creating openness
w~th~n the development as one moves through ~t
· In addition to the use permit, a rezomng apphcat~on ~s required to change the
underlying zoning from AG-1 & AG-2 Agricultural Distnct to R-30 Res~dentlal D~stnct
A subdivision vanance ~s also sought as the proposed and preferred road design Is
atypical of C~ty standards for a residential street The proposed road section depicts
the use of swales for drainage and a smaller w~dth of asphalt (24 feet rather than the
required 30 feet) In addition, the s~dewalk ~s not d~rectly adjacent to the roadway
but rather buffered from vehicular trafhc w~th street trees and street hghtmg
S~te DesLqn
· The concept plan depicts a single entrance ~nto the proposed development off of
North Landing Road Masonry walls parallel to North Landing Road on each s~de of
the entrance road are proposed There are approximately s~x (6) acres of passive
open space, free from development, as one enters the s~te A large entry feature is
proposed w~th,n th~s open space area The rendenng of the entry feature depicts a
predom~nately reddish bnck outdoor pawhon w~th a cupola on the dark color roof and
dent~l molding surrounding the top The design of the pawhon ~s consistent w~th the

· The Cond~bonal Zomng Agreement indicates that 25 2 acres of land (39 percent of
the total area) w~ll be dedicated to passive recreational open space The m~mmum
open space requirement of the typical R-30 open space promotion option is 15

Each budding lot w~ll be developed w~th double the total canopy cover specified ~n
the C~ty of V~rg~ma Beach's "Res~denbal Tree Requirement Table" For example, a
20,000 to 29,000 square foot lot requires at least 900 square feet of tree canopy
Th~s can be accomplished by using all small, medium or large trees or a combination
thereof Small trees, such as a dogwood or crape myrtle, are g~ven 100 square feet
of canopy cover Medium trees, such as nver b~rch and Amencan holly, are g~ven
150 square feet of canopy cover Large trees, such as bald cypress and Ioblolly
pine, are g~ven 200 square feet of canopy cover Small trees must be at least five
(5) feet ~n height at the t~me of planting and medium to large trees must be a
m~mmum of 1 Y2 ~nch cahper at the t~me of planting
The pre-development tree canopy is 18 percent W~th the proposed proffered

Evaluation of Request
These requests are recommended for approval The apphcant proposes to develop a
65 1 acre s~te ~nto 65 res~denbal lots resulting ~n an overall density of 1 dwelhng umt per
acre The request consists of a conditional use permit for R-30 opens space promobon
that allows the square footage of the home s~tes to be a m~mmum of 18,000 square feet,
although the actual s~ze of the proposed lots ranges between 20,000 and 25,000 square
feet Th~s allows a greater percentage of the pamel to remain ~n "open space" for park
space (passive recreabon ~n th~s case) and scenic v~stas w~th the goal of creating
openness w~thm the development as one travels through ~t The Cond~bonal Zoning
Agreement ~nd~cates that 25 2 acres of land (39 pement of the total area) w~ll be

dedicated to passive recreabonal open space The minimum open space requirement of
the R-30 open space promotion ophon ~s 15 percent
Dunng the design phase of th~s development dunng d~scuss~ons w~th staff, the apphcant
recogmzed that ~t was essential that the ~mportant enwronmental feature (the large
stand of trees) be ~ncorporated ~nto the overall design of the subd~ws~on ~n terms of the
number of homes ~n the wooded area, particularly ~n m~n~m~z~ng the s~ze of the lots ~n
th~s area of the s~te As a result, the actual Iocabon of the proposed homes w~th~n the
woods has been predetermined so as to mm~m~ze d~sturbance The retention of a
majonty of the trees d~ctates an expectation that adlacent parcels, should they ever
develop, respect the efforts to maintain a natural buffer of value In addition to
preserving the majonty of the trees w~thm th~s stand, open areas are proposed ~n
strategic Iocabons along the roadway to estabhsh a sense of openness
Th~s development attempts to create a h~gh quahty neighborhood that has been
designed to preserve a large amount of open space and showcase the enwronmental
resources on the s~te Staff approached the rewew of this plan ~n the Transition Area
d~fferently than one for a subdivision typically found ~n the northern part of the C~ty Th~s
development ~s a special type of project w~th ~ts own development standards suitable to
the atmosphere and character desired for th~s area
Development ~n the Transition Area should be associated w~th s~gmflcant open space
and recreahonal amembes Th~s development builds off of a centrahzed open space as
well as add~bonal pockets and "ribbons" of open space at the property's penmeter
These nbbons of open space a~d ~n preventmg an undesirable scenano, atypical of the
rural character of the area, of back-to-back rear yards A substantial amount of the
parcel (39 percent) w~ll remain as undeveloped open areas, but perhaps equally
~mportant to the amount of land reserved for open space ~s the actual access~b~hty and
usab~hty of the proposed open areas A vast malonty of the homes w~ll back up to or be
adjacent to e~ther open space or forested areas Th~s ~ncludes lots 56 through 65 that
w~ll back up to a platted ~ngress/egress easement to the property to the west that vanes
~n w~dth from approximately 35 feet to 140 feet w~de Th~s easement w~ll serve as a
buffer to the ex~stmg uses to the west Also ~ncluded ~n the open space component ~s a
well-planned pedestnan c~rculahon system w~th extensive ~ntemal connections Along
w~th the pedestnan system, park benches and large p~cn~c shelters are proposed w~th~n
the open space area Approximately s~x (6) acres w~ll be heavily landscaped as the
entrance ~nto the community from North Landing Road as well that w~ll also a~d m
ma~ntam~ng the rural v~stas from the road
At the request of C~ty Council, staff developed a set of cntena for assessing a
development's consistency with the Comprehensive Plan's pohcles for the Trans~bon
Area The result was the estabhshment of a "Transition Area Matnx" that ~s now used to

HARBOUR DEVELOPMENT CORPORATION, L L C ! # 27, 28 & 29

calculate the potential density of a development proposal m the transition area
Apphcahon of the matnx to the submitted plan resulted ~n a hnal "rabng" that would allow
a maximum of 64 dwelhng umts on the property The applicant ~s requesting 65 un~ts A
factor that must be entered into the equation, however, is the fact that the matnx calls
for vanat~on ~n lot s~ze for the purpose of clustenng and gaining open space Th~s
component of the plan scored relatively Iow A s~gn~flcant ~ssue, however, ~s the recent
op~mon several C~ty Councd members expressed to other rezomng apphcants ~n the
Transition Area to have a mm~mum lot s~ze of 20,000 square feet Th~s apphcant,
knowing that several Councd members expressed that op~mon, redesigned the
proposed layout a number of t~mes to ~ncrease the lot s~zes to the desired 20,000
square feet wh~le stdl trying to achieve the other objectives as expressed by the
Transition Area Density Matrix The result Is a plan that scores high on almost all of the
matnx ~tems w~th the exception of the one calhng for vanat~on m lot sizes
The design of the subdivision and the amount of cash proffers set aside for acquisition
of open space demonstrate the promohon of open space w~thln this proposal Staff
concludes that the apphcant's proposal meets the apphcable prows~ons of the
Comprehensive Plan for the Transition Area and recommends approval of these
requests subject to the cond~bons below as part of the Open Space Promotion

Ed&e Bourdon Thank you Mrs Wood Agmn for the record, my name ~s Eddie
Bourdon representing the apphcants Mr Kensler, Mr Sadler, who are hem today All the
conditions -- the three conditions are all acceptable On behalf of my clients, we want to
bnefiy thank Carolyn Srmth, Stephen White and the Planning staff for all their work on
this apphcat~on My clients have worked very closely with them and I think, as you smd
at the informal session flus morning, ttus a first rate plan It s an excellent plan not hke
anyttung else that's been done m the C~ty And we appreciate you recogmzmg that by
putting it on the Consent agenda
Dorothy Wood Thank you Mr Bourdon
John Baum [ wanted to ask a question There s another parcel ~n between that and the
Vo Tech School Is that right9 Do you know who owns that~
Eddie Bourdon There's a - John, I have an aerial of that tf that would be of any use to
you
John Baum Yes
Robert Miller John them ~t is
John Baum Well
Eddie Bourdon Oh, there we go We got it here to One that s been t~mbemd?
John Baum Yes
Eddie Bourdon Ijust asked my clients ! do not know who owns that parcel that's been
nmbemd that s between us and at Vo Tech
John Baum You know, you drive by frequently you see something happen and one
reason why I wanted to bnng that up, our crazy government -- Wetlands defimt~on --
Wetlands by their defimt~on There's nothing wrong w~th developing ~t in my opinion,
but it's been so erratic that I just w~sh people would notice some of these go up, some go
down Who knows who approves? The reporters have no interest in Freedom of
Information Act I love to read the language when they approve these and when they
dxsapprove so that's not your chent's fault
Eddie Bourdon I flo know Mr Baum and from my personal experience you have forest
a piece of property m th~s area and you timber it w~thout takdng the proper precautions
and having dehneanon to go first it all becomes Wetlands once you timber it
John Baum R~ght Well, if it delineated before the tree's cut it s not Wetlands
Eddie Bourdon That's correct
John Baum In last October, they become no longer Wetlands and yon could do anytinng
you want to and soon as you work it it looks greasy and wet and everything else, but,
that s government reasoning
Eddie Bourdon You're absolutely correct
Ronald Pdpley Mr Scott So much nme and effort has been spend developing
addmonal gmdehnes additional approaches to properties in the Trans~uon Area that are
up for development Th~s property seems to - it seems to meet the criteria and I ttunk
from my op~mon that the developer and the staff have done an excellent job in putting
tins together Would you like to comment on this because th~s ~s a little more senslUve
area then we typically deal w~th here
Robert Scott I would I appreciate the opportumty I can't think of an area that s been
more difficult for us to deal with than in the policy areas related to the developing of the
Transition Area over the last nine months or so In fact, some people would say longer
than that But recently, we ve developed w~th the Planning Conu-msslon's help a matrix
for evaluating these apphcauons and we've consistently apphed them to apphcatlons that
have come m over the last several months now In flus case first of all, let me say that
the matrix takes ~nto account a number of different factors It takes ~nto account the
design of the subdivision It takes into account the appearance from the street Takes
into account protection of natural resources It takes into account the design and the
layout and the relationship of open space to the development In all of those cases two
things can be smd First of all, I do affirmat,vely believe that Councd is comfortable with
the dtrecuon we are heading from a pohcy point of view on every one of those issues
They expressed that through their wordq and through their actions And also I can say,
that the apphcat~on here rate very high no every one of those points It does not rate
particularly high on the issue of lot sizes and the way lot s,zes are employed throughout
the subdivision but I can in good faith say I have the same degree of comfort about
Council's view on that point Council has not express to us as they have with those other
points a level of comfort with our approach to lot sizes And I think the fact ~s something
that we need to work on further and we are working on further And we hope that we can
bring to a truthful conclusion with all the part~es ~nvolved The difficulty that our staff ~n
thiq ~s asking the developer to amend his plans to accommodate a policy we're not sure
Council ~s comfortable with I would really have a difficulty with that So, I think tt just
needs to be noted that where as the matrix one when applied as drafted - I thmk 62 lots
on its property We are recommending the 66 because the short conungs is in an area of
doubt that we have about how solid everybody ts on the pohctes related to lot size in that
area We felt that it was probably inappropriate to hold an applicant responsible for
building or complying with the condition that evidentially lacks a level of confidence
And I just think that needs to be noted so that everybody knows where were cormng
from I do have a great deal of froth generally in the approach of applying tins matrix I
tinnk ~t does some good I thrak tt provides clarity I think tt provides some points that
people can see and understand and relate to easxly And I tlunk it's something that we
would like to conunue to do By enlarge, this apphcatmn has matched up very well
agamst it and my write up reflects that But I did want to make sure that the Planning
Commission knows about that one point and why we differed on that one point regarding
the mamx and what our reason behind that was If you feel that our reasoning is not
sound and that we should have gone in a different d~recuon, well you have the facts here
at your disposal to do that But I felt tt was encumbered upon us to explmn why we did
what we dtd with the matrix and as ~t relates to this apphcatton I apprecmte the chance
to explmn that
