AGENDA ITEM
TO' The Honorable Mayor and Members of Council
FROM: James K Spore, City Manager
ITEM.
An Ordinance to Amend and Reordain Section 10-1 of the City Code by
Adding Eight New Precincts, Changing Polling Locations and Boundary lines
For Precincts Resulting From Population Increases.
MEETING DATE: September 23, 2003
Background: The Virginia Beach Electoral Board voted on July 15 and August 21, 2003 to create
e~ght new precincts, and make other boundary hne and polling location changes. Growth and
development ~n the city, and DMV voter registration opportumties have increased the size of
Centerville, Brandon, Hunt, Bellamy and Bonney precincts near the precinct limit set by law and
necessarily need to be split. As a result, Tallwood, new Strawbridge, Pleasant Hall, new Indian Lakes,
Reon, Rock Lake, Shelburne and Upton will be created. Boundary line changes were made by the
Board to equalize and reduce College Park, Glenwood, Salem, Landstown and others
Considerations: All of the locations do meet requirements of the Americans with D~sab~lit~es Act.
These changes will become effecbve upon approval by the U.S. Department of Justice pursuant to the
Voting Rights Act of 1965, as amended beginning with the February 10, 2004 Presidential Primary
Election.
Public Information: As required by Section 24.2-306 of the Code of Virginia notice of these
proposed changes were published in the newspaper once a week for two consecutive weeks All
voters in the new precincts, voters with new polling locations, precinct name changes and only voters
who are affected by boundary line changes w~ll receive new voter cards w~th the name and addresses
of the new polling locations. An advertisement w~ll be placed in the newspaper prior to the Presidential
Primary Election to be held February 10, 2004.
Budgetary Impact: The cost for the notification of cibzens, new election officials and voting equipment
w~ll be $40,000 and some funds are available in FY 2004-2005 budget
Recommendations' Adopt the proposed changes.

ITEM:
Ordinance Authorizing the Use of Partial Real Estate Tax Exemptions for
Eligible Commercial and Industrial Properties
MEETING DATE: September 23, 2003
· Background: The City Council expressed interest in redevelopment strategies
during their 2003 retreat and previous retreats. As Virginia Beach ages and nears build-
out of available vacant land, redevelopment becomes a vital strategy to strengthen and
preserve the tax base. Council was initially briefed on February 11, 2003 on
redevelopment and applicable redevelopment tools. Council was briefed again on
August 12, 2003 on using tax credits to promote redevelopment. The City currently uses
tax credits to encourage historical preservation, but no attempt has been made to
encourage other types of redevelopment.
· Considerations: The proposed ordinance will establish the framework to provide
tax credits to property owners who substantially rehabilitate, renovate or replacement
eligible commercial or industrial properties. The exemptions will be limited to defined
districts in the City. The eligibility criteria will be stringent and will demand a high level of
investment that encourages high density, mixed-use projects. These rehabilitations will
not only conserve existing available vacant land for future use and growth, but will
strengthen the tax base by transforming under-utilized properties into more attractive
and productive business locations. The boundaries and criteria for these districts will be
established later by amendments to this ordinance.
· Public Information: Information will be provided through the normal agenda
process and was publicly broadcasted on February 11 and August 12, 2003; the
Virginian-Pilot published articles on this subject on February 11 and September 1, 2003.

POLICY REPORT:
Partial Tax Exemption For Redevelopment
Background
Protecting the tax base and the well being of the overall economy ~s a key goal of all commun~bes. As
Virginia Beach begins to mature, th~s goal w~ll become ~ncreas~ngly important and effective tools are
needed to provide ~ncentives for redevelopment and rehabilitation of ex~sbng properties in order to
preserve and expand the tax base. These measures are needed to stabihze the assessments of under-
performing properties and w~ll, hopefully, bring economic prosperity back to the structure or redeveloped
property.
Currently, the C~ty only has provisions to grant tax credits for redevelopment of ehgible properties that are
"h~stoncally s~gn~flcant" V~rg~n~a Code secbon 58.1-3221 allows Iocahbes to adopt ordinances for the
partial exemption from taxation of commercial and mdustnal real estate. However, the Code does
prescribe minimum critena for eligibility. The structure to be improved can be no less than 20 years old for
commercial or industrial, unless the structure resides in an area designated by the State as an Enterprise
Zone, in which case, the structure can be no less than 15 years old. The partial exempbon cannot exceed
the amount equal to the incremental ~ncrease in the assessed valuation resulting from the rehabilitation or
redevelopment or ~t cannot exceed 50% of the cost of rehabihtabon or redevelopment.
There are provisions in this secbon of Virginia Code that permit Iocahties to estabhsh criteria for
determining whether the structure (vacant land and land assessments cannot receive exemptions)
qualifies for the part~al tax exempbon within prescribed geographical districts. Restricting the eligibility
criteria will give the City control over the types of structures that qualify for partial exemption of real estate
taxes. Criteria can be estabhshed to ensure that only property in carefully selected areas ~n need of
redevelopment w~ll benefit from these provisions.
Considerations
By hmiting the ehg~b~lity requirements, the City can control the type and quality of redevelopment that ~s
desired to preserve and grow the tax base as well as not providing incentives to property that would have
been redeveloped or replaced w~thout a partial tax exemption. While this code provision can be used as a
tool to provide incentives for redevelopment, it can also be misused on properbes that would have been
redeveloped regardless of any public ~ncenbve and thereby, needlessly grant an exemption and reduce
the tax y~eld. Establishing meaningful ehgibihty requirements ~s crucial to the effecbveness and success of
the program. The success of the program can be measured by meeting the following goals'
Significant public benefit would not have occurred without ~nvestment from both the private
and pubhc sectors ~n the redevelopment project.
The redevelopment project will encourage similar investment ~n the surrounding area.
The loss of exempted tax revenue will be offset by the creation of new tax revenues
generated from the project.
Operational: The ehg~b~hty requirements will be based on the project's size, location, historical
assessed valuation trend, economic performance, and overall re-development plan within each
established d~stnct. The C~ty can strategically identify locations in the most need of redevelopment
and offer a high potential for economic development. Given the various needs throughout the City,
specific requirements for each district may vary based on ~nd~v~dual needs of the d~strict, but the
Page 1 of 5
DRAFT
requirements within each district will be uniformly apphed to each project. Prewous assessment
history can demonstrate the need for redevelopment. If assessments and economic acbwty are
sluggish or declimng, ~t is hkely that the property ~s not performing to ~t's full potential and could
benefit from redevelopment to increase assessments. Rewewlng and approving the redevelopment
plan will ensure that the project meets the quality design standards expected by the C~ty. The
elements of the redevelopment plan will vary among districts to meet its specific needs for
development and w~ll be guided, ~n concept, by the C~ty's Comprehensive Plan The elements w~ll
be simdar ~n each district, but the requirements wdl be d~fferenbated by extent and extremity
Elements of the redevelopment plan w~ll ~nclude urban design concepts (as opposed to inducing
sprawl), architectural or quality standards, density, size (can be based on minimum or maximum
standards of block size or project square footage), and usage of the project. Tax credits would not
be granted until the eligibility requirements are met and the project is completed.
Tax credits can be easdy provide direct incentives to investors w~thout direct investment or
substantial commitment from the City to support the project. This incentive most closely resembles
Tax Increment F~nanc~ng since real estate taxes from ~ncreased assessments are used to leverage
private investment. However, there are some d~fferences:
· Tax credits allow the City to capture the incremental growth in the base assessment value
whereas TIF uses the incremental growth from the base assessment and the new
construction value as the financing structure.
· The risks of future assessments are placed on the private investor and not the City. The
C~ty takes on added risk when TIFs are used to finance long-term debt to pay for public
infrastructure. The revenue from the TIF is used to pay back the debt over a period of 20
years or more. When tax credits are used, the developer does not have to pay taxes out
the project's cash flow, which could then be used to finance the cost of construcbon, land
assembly, or other project costs.
· Tax credits are best used for smaller projects that do not require the C~ty to provide cash
investments. This tool could be used to spur many redevelopment projects across the City
whereas TI Fs are used to mcentivize fewer large projects that can take substanbal
commitment and are isolated in one area of the C~ty.
Organizational: After redevelopment occurs and is recorded in the C~ty's land book, the City Real
Estate Assessor will compute a tax bdl based on the full value of the property. However, when the
bdl ~s sent to the property owner, the credit wdl be applied through the City Treasurer's bdhng
system. In effect, the property owner wdl not pay the add~bonal ~ncremental tax on the building
value. The method for calculating the partial tax exemption wdl be based on the ~ncreased
incremental value (or the difference from the base year and the initial assessment after renovation
~s completed or the structure is replaced) instead of exempting the tax equivalent of 50% of the
construction costs. Th~s approach wdl be easier to administer and wdl not be as cumbersome and
bme consuming as rewewmg construcbon documents to verify cost ~nformabon.
Legal: For each proposed application for partial tax exemption, an ordinance specifying the
conditions when a structure has been rehabilitated and conditions under which a tax credit can be
applied will be detaded ~n the procedures and cond~bons for quahflcat~on. The tax credit only applies
to the value of the building structure, but not the land value. Exempbons may begin upon the
complebon of the rehabd~tation, renovation or replacement or on January 1 of the following year.
The ordinance will identify when the property has been rehabilitated, the duration and condibons of
the tax credit, and methods for determ~mng the base value. Redevelopment gu~dehnes and
standards wdl be consistent with the current zomng ordinance and Comprehensive Plan and may
change from district to district. The provisions set by Virgima Code section 58.1-3221 wdl be
rigorously observed.
Page 2 of 5
DRAFT
Budget: The overall goals are to protect and expand the C~ty's tax base and local economy and
upgrade the quahty of the community. There will be no annual loss ~n real estate tax revenue to the
City s~nce the quahfy~ng property will sbll be taxed at the base level assessments plus any natural
occurring growth ~n the base assessment. There ~s little risk of lost revenue s~nce the ordinance
exempts negative credits g~ven to properties that have assessments lower than their base level. At
worse, there is a possibihty of revenue neutrality when credits are given to properties that perform
only at h~stoncal levels. In th~s case, the incentive could be seen as m~tigatmg further loss of
revenue On the other hand, tax credits could be wewed as "opportunity costs" of defernng real
estate taxes on the redeveloped property to achieve higher quahty development and greater
economic impact. If the goals of th~s program are achieved, then the C~ty w~ll benefit by add~bonal
tax revenue and by stabilized property values. By using tax credits correctly, the City could realize
increased tax collections and a greater fiscal and economic impact from new sales growth by
redeveloping under-performing commercial property.
The partial tax exempbon credit should not affect the current school revenue sharing formula. There
are seven local tax revenues shared w~th the school system and the real estate tax ~s the formula's
primary revenue source. Each year, these seven revenues grow incrementally and help fund the
growing needs of the school system. However, unhke Tax Increment F~nancing, the partial real
estate tax exemption does not "freeze" base-level assessments, and the base level assessments
are allowed to increase incrementally each year hke any other property The base level
assessments are not subject to the partial exemption, only the redeveloped structure is granted the
exemption. The tax credit amount will remain constant throughout the exemption term, and would
not have occurred "but for" the redevelopment project ~tself If the base year, or year one,
assessments are $1M and after the redevelopment occurs, the property ~s now worth $2M, the tax
credit is based on the additional $1M ~n assessments and the credit will never ~ncrease above that
amount. If the assessments increase to a total of $2.5M ~n year three, the general fund will not only
receive taxes on the first $1M of assessments, but also on the assessment increase of $.5M for a
new total of $1.5M (see the appendix for an illustration).
To reiterate, the property should become more productive and create a positive fiscal impact in
terms of increasing sales and gross receipts taxes, which are also part of the school revenue
sharing formula. Once the part~al tax exemption concludes, the full ~mpact of the additional taxable
value w~ll flow to the Schools and City.
Alternative Course of Action
If the City elects to not pursue parbal tax exemption credits, it could adopt similar development incentive
programs like Norfolk and Portsmouth that use State and Federal tax credits. However, areas in Virginia
Beach would have to be identified as Enterprise Zones. This des~gnabon would require a review process
from the State and Federal Governments. It should be noted that the C~ty has other tools and ~ncent~ves
to encourage development and redevelopment. Parbal real estate tax exempbons are merely another
tool for the C~ty to use depending on a project's specific c~rcumstance Overall the City has many tools
available for redevelopment ranging from issuing bonds, the EDIP program, Tax Increment Financing,
state and federal grants, special serwce d~stncts, zones w~th tax credit ~ncenbves, and various
development and redevelopment authorities. Each tool can be applied in d~fferent s~tuat~ons, which are
not necessarily mutually exclusive of one another.
Recommendations
The partial tax exemption credit incentive program ~s recommended for adoption along with appropriate
cnteria and quahfy~ng factors. The program should be first instituted as a pilot in a limited zone to test
and momtor ~ts application and outcome. Specific conditions and limits should be determined for each
designated zone to create a program that best meets the individual needs of that area of the C~ty. If the
pilot project is successful, the other zones can be created in strategic target areas throughout the City to
encourage redevelopment. When feasible, the C~ty should review ~ts redevelopment strategies that are
compatible to the needs of the project to devise an incentive package that could include several incentive

programs. The conditions set forth in the pilot district will be evaluated after the first year to determine
program effecbveness. Any project granted a tax credit during the first year would continue to receive the
benefits under the original criteria until the projected expiration date.

APPENDIX- Partial Tax Exemption Benefits
The C~ty's tax base, theorebcally, should expand by ~mplemenbng the part~al property tax exempbon
program. If a given commercial property is assessed at $1,000,000 and assessments ~ncrease
annually by 1%, in 15 years the property will be valued at $1,150,000. This ~ncrease equates to
$13,382 m additional property taxes or an average of $892 per year

However, after this same property received a tax credit as an inducement to redevelop, the property
would be worth $2,000,000 if the ehg~bdity criteria for a tax credit required a 100% increase in
assessed valuabon If the property's assessments ~ncreased by 1% annually, ~n 15 years the property
will be values at $2,275,000. This increase equates to $23,117 in additional property taxes or an
average of $1,541 per year. Total property taxes ~ncrease by 73% over 15 years by implemenbng the
part~al tax exemption program.

AGENDA ITEM
ITEM: Memorandum of Understanding
MEETING DATE' September 23, 2003
· Background:
The Norfolk Southern Railway Company is in the process of
discontinuing its freight service in Virginia Beach. Once this service
has been terminated Norfolk Southern intends to sell its interest in its
rail right-of-way (approximately 15 miles in length) that extends from
Birdneck Road in Virginia Beach to Park Avenue in the City of Norfolk.
Although Norfolk Southern recognizes there may be several parties
interested in purchasing the right-of-way, it hopes to limit negotiations
for this sale to one primary negotiator. Norfolk Southern intends to
complete this transaction by the summer of 2004.
Considerations:
Hampton Roads Transit has entered into negotiations with Norfolk
Southern to purchase a portion of the rail right-of-way ( 4.6 mile
segment from Park Avenue in Norfolk to the Virginia Beach Corporate
limits). HRT hopes to acquire the right-of-way to accommodate the
proposed light rail project in Norfolk.
The City of Virginia Beach has also expressed an interest in purchasing
the rail right-of-way in Virginia Beach for future municipal and/or
transportation uses. Approximately 10.4 miles of the right-of-way is
located in Virginia Beach.
The City has expressed an interest in collaborating with HRT to
negotiate the purchase of the 10.4 mile segment in Virginia Beach. To
accomplish this, Virginia Beach and HRT have prepared the attached
Memorandum of Understanding (see Exhibit A to attached ordinance).
The Memorandum of Understanding sets forth the parameters that will
guide the negotiation process between HRT/Virginia Beach and Norfolk
Southern.
· Public Information:
After negotiations are complete, the Council may solicit public input as
to how the right-of-way will be used.
Alternatives:
There are three basic alternatives for the Council to consider: 1)
Collaborate with HRT in the negotiation and purchase of the right-of-
way; 2) The City can negotiate on its own. This could present problems
in light of the fact that Norfolk Southern has expressed its desire to
conduct one negotiation; and 3) The City can choose to not purchase
the right-of-way.
Recommendations:
Staff recommends the City execute the Memorandum of Understanding
with HRT. The Norfolk Southern right-of-way is a valuable public asset
that, if lost, would be irreplaceable. The City, by owning the right-of-
way, can protect it for future public uses. Consequently, staff
recommends the City proceed with negotiations as defined in the
Memorandum of Understanding.
Attachments:
Three attachments are included for the Council's consideration: 1) The
Memorandum of Understanding which sets forth the parameters under
which the City and HRT will participate in the negotiation process to
purchase the Right-of-Way located in the City of Virginia Beach; 2) A
Summary of Terms of the Memorandum of Understanding; and 3) An
ordinance authorizing the City Manager to sign the Memorandum of
Understanding with HRT.

E. NS has stated 1ts desire to limit the negotiations for the purchase of the NS Right-
of-Way to one primary negotiator for the purchaser(s). NS also desires to sell its interest in the
entire line of the NS Right-of-Way at one time, with an agreement to be reached by the end of
2003 and a sale to occur by the summer of 2004 Accordingly, the City and HRT wish to
accommodate NS in these desires.
F HRT has already begun negotiations with NS on behalf of the City of Norfolk and
Norfolk State University and has offered to faclhtate negotiations between NS and the City for
the NS Right-of Way located in Virginia Beach and to act as the lead negotiator
G. HRT supports the City's desire to acquire the Virginia Beach segment of the NS
R~ght-of-Way, and to that end, HRT and the City enter into th~s Memorandum of Understanding
setting forth the parameters relating to the process to acquire the NS Right-of-Way from NS.
NOW, THEREFORE, ~n consideration of the mutual premises and agreements contmned herein,
and other good and valuable consideration, the recmpt and sufficiency of which are hereby
acknowledged by both part~es, the part~es agree as follows
1. Process for Negot~anng for Purchase of NS R~ght-of-Way with NS
,
HRT, the C~ty and the prospective purchasers of the Norfolk segment of the NS R~ght-of-
Way will form a umted negotianng team. HRT will act as the lead agency ~n the negotiations
w~th NS relating to the acquisition of the entire NS Right-of-Way, including the port~on
located ~n V~rglma Beach The City wall be directly ~nvolved in the negonations and the
acqms~t~on process; however the City will not have any independent contact with NS

Appraisal.
In 2000, HRT and NS obtained an apprmsal of the entxre NS Rxght-of-Way. NS has agreed
to pay for an update of the appraisal to bnng it current It ~s anticipated that the updated
apprmsal wall be completed during the summer of 2003 HRT and NS have agreed that the
updated appraisal value wall serve as a ceiling for purposes of negotiating a purchase price
for the ennre NS R~ght-of-Way. The City retains the right to obtmn xts own apprmsal, but the
C~ty ~s under no obhgatmn to do so
o
When the 2000 appraisal was performed, the rail assets, e.g., t~es, rail, etc. (the "Rail
Infrastructure") were also apprmsed. W~th NS's pending line abandonment it is expected that
the Rail Infrastructure has no value and, thus, will not ~mpact the final purchase price of the
NS Right-of-Way
Surveys, Title Work, Environmental Site Assessments and Legal Costs During the
Negotiations.
Dunng the negotiations for the purchase of the NS Right-of-Way, the City will bear the cost
of obtaining title work and enwronmental s~te assessments ("ESAs") on the Virginia Beach
segment of the NS Right-of-Way, should the City decide title work and ESAs are necessary;
HRT will bear the cost of an encroachment survey of the entire NS Right-of-Way, including
that portion of the NS Right-of-Way that is ~n Virginia Beach HRT and the City w~ll each
bear their own legal costs. HRT may not retain or perform title work, ESAs, or any legal
services for the City at the City's expense without the City's advance written authorization.
HRT will provide the City copies of all documents it may have in its possession pertaining to
the title or environmental condition of the Virginia Beach segment of the NS Right-of-Way,
including without limitation old title reports, surveys, deeds or previous site studies.
The City will not be responsible for any costs or expenses of any k~nd pertaining to the
Norfolk segment of the NS Right-of-Way
4. Process for Acqumng the NS Right of Way
After negotiating a purchase price for the entire NS Right-of-Way, there remains the task of
actually acquiring the line. Because it is NS's stated desire to sell its interest in the entire
line at one time, the City understands that it may be required to fund 1ts share of the purchase
price (to be determined in the negotiations with NS) at the same time the purchaser of the
Norfolk segment funds its share. However, the City is free to pursue, ~n accordance with the
process set forth in Paragraph 1 of this Memorandum of Understanding, alternative payment
arrangements with NS as part of the negotiations, such as an installment plan, lease/purchase,
or other financial plan.
5. Timetable for Negotiation for and Acquisition of the Right of Way
If, by the Target Date (defined below) HRT has not successfully facilitated an agreement
between the City and NS, then the City may (upon notice to HRT in writing) terminate this
Memorandum of Understanding and pursue negotiations directly with NS for the acquisition
of the segment of the NS Right-of-Way located in Virginia Beach. Prior to the Target Date,
the City may pursue negotiations directly with NS for the acquisition of the segment of the
NS Right-of-Way located in Virginia Beach only if HRT has first notified the City in writing
that it has abandoned active pursuit of an agreement with NS to purchase the NS Right-of-
Way on behalf of the City. The term "Target Date" means the date thirty (30) months after
the final execution of this Memorandum of Understanding
6. Disposition of the Vlrg~ma Beach Port~on of the Right of Way
The pames recogmze a mutual desire to preserve the option of transportation uses on the NS
R~ght-of-Way, and they recognize HRT's strong interest ~n preserving the potential for hght
raft to be installed on the NS Right-of-Way in V~rg~ma Beach, should the C~ty decide ~n the
future to pursue a hght rail project. In hght of these considerations, should the C~ty purchase
the V~rglma Beach segment of the NS R~ght-of-Way, the C~ty will consult with HRT to
mlmm~ze the ~mpact on potential future mass transportation uses before selhng or
slgmficantly disturbing the integrity of the NS R~ght-of-Way. For example, if the C~ty
dec~des to Install a bicycle or pedestrian path, horseback-n&ng trml, or paved street on ~ts
portion of the NS Right-of-Way, the C~ty will consult w~th HRT before doing so, to
determine the ~mpact of such use on the potential for hght raft or other mass transportation
options, and to discuss with HRT options to preserve sufficient room for light rail potential ~f
the NS R~ght-of-Way can accommodate multiple uses
Nothing in this Memorandum of Understanding, however, shall obligate the City to pursue
hght raft or any other use or give HRT any control over how the C~ty uses the NS R~ght-of-
Way after the C~ty acqmres ~t
7. Application for Credit Toward Future Mass Transportation Prolects.
The City may, at any time upon written notice to HRT, apply to the appropriate agency to
have (1) the monies prod by the City for the purchase of the NS Right-of-Way, or (2) the
then-determined value of any easement, leasehold ~nterest or fee ~nterest contributed to any
future mass transportation project, at the C~ty's sole &scretlon, credited towards the C~ty's
local share (local match) of any mass transportation system that m~ght be developed on the
NS Right-of-Way ~n the future HRT will cooperate with such application in order to
facilitate such credit.
8. Maintenance of the Right of Way after Acqms~tlon/Lease
Upon acqumng the Norfolk port~on of the line, HRT will assume full responsibility for
maintenance and security of the Norfolk secUon of the NS Right-of-Way. Upon acquiring
title and/or right of exclusive possession of the section of the NS Pdght-of-Way located ~n
Vlrglma Beach, the Cay will assume all respons~blhty for the maintenance and security of
the NS Right-of-Way ~n V~rglma Beach, ~nclud~ng but not hm~ted to vegetation control and
encroachment prevention and reme&at~on. After acqmsltion, the C~ty shall have no
responsibility for the maintenance of the raft assets ~nclud~ng ties, rafts, crossing protection,
etc. Once abandonment of the raft freight operauon ~s officmlly granted, the City agrees to
consult w~th HRT before removing or paving over any rail crossing, in accordance with
Paragraph 6 of th~s Memorandum. To the extent provided ~n the property sales agreement,
the C~ty will receive all revenues generated by easements, license agreements, etc. related to
third party use of the right of way located m Virginia Beach The Cay agrees to consult with
HRT before entenng into any new easement-type agreements, including renewal of any
existing easements or use agreements.
This Memorandum of Understanding may require modification in the future and is intended
to reflect the understandings between the parties as of the date of this Memorandum of
Understanding
IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the parties have caused this Memorandum of Understanding to
be executed as of the date first written above.

part of all negotiations HRT will not make any offers or affect the City's
bargaining position in any manner without the City's express consent.
The City will not be required to buy the property, and will only purchase it

pays its share Payment terms are negotiable, however
Costs.
The City will pay for obtaining any title work or environmental site
assessments if the City decides they are necessary HRT will pay for an
encroachment survey of the right-of-way in V~rgima Beach. Each party

associated with the sale of the Norfolk segment of the right-of-way.
Termination:
The agreement terminates after 30 months if no purchase agreement has
been reached Until that time, the City may not independently negotiate
with Norfolk Southern.
No restrictions on future use of property:
HRT has no control over the C~ty's future use of the property The City
does agree to consult with HR to minimize the impact on potential future
transportation uses before selhng or s~gmficantly disturbing the integrity

MEETING DATE:
Local Law Enforcement Block Grant
September 23, 2003
Background:
The Local Law Enforcement Block Grant (LLEBG) Program, through the Federal
Bureau of Justice Assistance, provides funds to units of local government for the
purposes of reducing crime and improving public safety. The Program is designed
to allow local communities to address problems specific to their areas. The City has
been notified that $194,572 has been allocated for Virginia Beach for the 2003
LLEBG. This funding includes $175,115 from the U. S. Department of Justice and
the required local cash match of $19,457.
Considerations:
The grant requires that a local advisory board make non-binding recommendations
regarding the use of the funds. The Virginia Beach Community Criminal Justice
Board serves in that capacity, and recommends that the funds be appropriated for
the following purposes:
$20,988 to Community Corrections for contracted manpower clerical assistance
because the state grant does not fund any receptionist/clerical personnel,
therefore the LEBG has been a funding source for several years.
$15,000 to the General District Court for overtime for GDC employees to do
document imaging of criminal records to be readily available to Police, Sheriff's
and Commonwealth's Attorney employees.
$10,000 to the General District Court for a web server to enhance the capability
of the Police Officer Assigned Court Dates Program. This will allow assignment
information to be accessed to all approved users over the web, allowing better
coordination of court appearances by officers on their assigned dates.
· $3,187 to the Magistrate's Office for a replacement desktop computer and
printer for the Chief Magistrate.
$28,000 to the Police Department for a Cyano Acrylate Vacuum System for the
Police Forensic Unit. This system will reduce the fumes from certain chemicals
used in evidence examination, providing a healthier working environment for
those employees.
$32,000 to the Police Department to purchase the remainder of personal
protective equipment needed to outfit all police officers in the event of a
weapons of mass destruction event.
$37,620 to the Police Department to purchase 9 portable radios capable of
encryption for the Police Special Investigative Division. These encrypted radios
are safer to use for narcotics investigations because it eliminates the ability to
intercept police transmissions.
$13,677 to the Sheriff's Department to purchase workbooks and teaching
materials for the DARE program taught by the Sheriff's Department. The state
has eliminated all funding for this program, but the school system has
requested that the Sheriff's Department continue the program.
$34,100 to the Sheriff's Department for 2 Total Marksmanship Diagnostic
Systems for the Law Enforcement Training Academy. They will be available for
joint use by the Police and Sheriff's Departments, to maintain and enhance
marksmanship skills. This need has increased with the closure of the Creeds
Firing Range.
Public Information:
A public hearing is required by the grant, which was held September 2, 2003, by
City Council.
Alternatives:
City Council can elect to use the funds for other law enforcement purposes (within
the grant guidelines) than those being recommended, or can decide to not accept
the grant.

TEM:
Fund Transfer for the Pendleton Parking Lot Expansion/Public
Restroom Facilities, ClP 4-040
MEETING DATE: September 23, 2003
Background: The FY 2003/2004 Capital Improvement Program (CIP)includes a
new project (4-040) "Pendleton Parking Lot Expansion/Restroom Facilities" for
Croatan Beach. The project has two major components: Adding 100 parking
spaces to the existing parking lot and constructing a new public restroom facility.
The CIP provided $532,500 over two fiscal years: $250,000 in FY2003/2004 and
$282,500 in FY 2004/2005. Approval for constructing these improvements on land
currently leased bythe City from the Commonwealth of Virginia will be required prior
to starting construction.
Considerations: It was the intent of Council to have the new restroom facility open
during the 2004 summer season and the parking lot expansion completed by
summer of 2005. However, the split in funding over two fiscal years (shown above)
is not consistent with the construction schedule for the two components of the
project. During the development of the project, the cost and schedule were
developed based on site adapting the 1,200 s.f. Little Island restroom facility design.
To meet the construction schedule, $350,000 is needed in the current fiscal year for
the construction of the restroom facility and have it open during the 2004 summer
season. As such, to maintain the desired opening of the new restroom facility, an
additional $100,000 needs to be transferred to the project for FY2003/2004.
Public Information: Public information will be handled through the normal Council
Agenda notification process.
[] Alternatives: There are two alternatives:
.
Approve the attached appropriation ordinance for the additional $100,000 this
fiscal year which will provide the new 1,200 s.f. facility during the 2004 summer
season. The ordinance has identified CIP project 3-038, Various Buildings
Rehabilitation and Renewal, as the funding source for this transfer. This
funding will be restored to CIP 3-038 in FY2004/2005.
.
Provide no additional funding this fiscal year. During this FY, only do the
design work for both the restrooms and the parking lot expansion. Then during
the development of the FY 2004/2005 CIP, the project funding can be revised
as necessary per current construction estimates based on that design work.
When the balance of the project funding is approved for FY 2004/2005,
construction on both the restrooms and parking lot could commence w~th a
completion prior to the 2005 summer season.

ITEM: Steven and Judith Papariello - Street Closure
MEETING DATE: September 23, 2003
· Background:
Apphcabon of Steven and Judith Papanello for the d~scontinuance, closure and
abandonment of a port~on of an alley adjacent to 837 Vanderb,lt Avenue,
beginning on the north s~de of Lockheed Avenue and running ~n a northerly
d~rechon a d~stance of fifty (50) feet DISTRICT 6 - BEACH
The purpose of th~s request ~s to close 7 5 feet of a 15-foot w~de alley and
~ncorporate the land area ~nto the property at 837 Vanderbdt Avenue for
res~denbal use
Considerations:
The alleyway between Lockheed Avenue and South Maryland Avenue ~s an
unimproved paper street The property on e~ther s~de of the alley ~s zoned R-10
Res~denbal D~stnct and ~s developed w~th smgle-famdy homes Lockheed
Avenue, to the south of the alleyway, ~s also unimproved between South Surfs~de
Avenue and Vanderb~lt Avenue
A slmdar street closure for an alleyway to the east of South Atlantic Avenue was
granted ~n 1990
There are no public or private ubht~es w~th~n the alleyway The V~ewers
Committee has determined that the proposed closure w~ll not result ~n a pubhc
inconvenience C~ty Councd has adopted a policy a~med at d~spos~ng of
undeveloped rights-of-way to adjoining property owners ~n the Croatan
community All of the funds generated from such closures are d~rected to a
Croatan Beach Access account and ultimately the funds collected are to be used
by the C~ty to purchase addmonal public access to the beach ~n the Croatan area
The Planning Commission placed th~s ~tem on the consent agenda because no
public inconvenience would result from the closure and there are no pubhc
ubht~es located ~n th~s port~on of the right-of-way Staff recommended approval
There was no opposmon to the request

Evaluation of Request
The port~on of the alley proposed for closure is part of an undeveloped alleyway that
runs north to south along the entire block between South Maryland Avenue and
Lockheed Avenue This alleyway is undeveloped and ~s adjacent to another
undeveloped street, Lockheed Avenue, to the south. There are no pubhc or private
utilibes w~thin the alleyway. The Viewers Committee has determined that the proposed
closure will not result in a public inconvenience. C~ty Council has adopted a policy
aimed at d~spos~ng of undeveloped rights-of-way to adjoining property owners in the
Croatan community. All of the funds generated from such closures are d~rected to a
Croatan Beach Access account and ulbmately the funds collected are to be used by the
City to purchase additional public access to the beach ~n the Croatan area. The
proposed street closure for a portion of the alley adjacent to 837 Vanderbdt Avenue ~s
recommended for approval with the following condibons.
Conditions
1. The C~ty Attorney's Office shall make the final determ~nabon regarding ownership
of the underlying fee The purchase price to be pa~d to the C~ty shall be
determined according to the "Pohcy Regarding Purchase of C~ty's Interest ~n
Streets Pursuant to Street Closures," approved by C~ty Council. Copies of the
pohcy are available ~n the Planning Department.

Dorothy Wood: Thank you. The next item 1s Item #23, Steven and Judith Papanello.
It's an application for a discontinuance, closure and abandonment of a portion of an alley
adjacent to Vanderbflt Avenue in the Beach District. Mr. Bourdon.
Eddie Bourdon: Thank you. The conditions as set forth in the street closure
recommendation are acceptable. We appreciate being on the consent agenda.
Dorothy Wood: Is there any opposition to Item #23? It's a street closure with four
conditions for Steven and Judith Papanello on Vanderbdt Avenue. Mr. Horsley, would
you please comment on that.
Donald Horsley: The viewers committee has determined that this closure will not result
in any public inconvenience. There are no public or private utilities in this alleyway.
And other such closures have occurred in this area so we as a Planning Commission think
that this closure deems approval.
Dorothy Wood: Thank you very much. Mr. Rlpley, I would move to approve number
#23 with four conditions.
Ronald Rlpley: So we have a motion by Dot Wood to approve Do I have a second?

MEETING DATE: September 23, 2003
· Background:
An Ordinance upon Application of Lynnhaven Block Associates, L L.C for the
Modification of a Change of Zon~n.q District Class~ficabon approved by City
Council on July 14, 1998 and as modified by City Councd on September 25,
2001. Property ~s located at 2061, 2077, 2085 and 2093 Lynnhaven Parkway
(GPINS 1475961048; 1475859946, 1475857859; 1475854849). DISTRICT 1 -
CENTERVILLE
The purpose of this request is to construct a bank on the only remaining vacant
parcel of the four parcels that now exist in the area of encumbered by a 1998
Condibonal Change of Zoning. The vacant parcel, known as Parcel D ~n the 1998
Cond~bonal Zoning Agreement, ~s restricted by proffer to use. A bank ~s one of
the uses allowed by the proffer. The Condibonal Zoning Agreement, however,
also I~mits the architectural design of any structure on the parcel to what is
depicted on the proffered concept plan. That architectural design ~s not suitable
for the bank and thus, th~s request to modify the proffers for use of a design
appropriate to the bank The site plan ~s also modified from the originally
proffered plan to provide a s~te layout more suited to a bank
Considerations:
This s~te was part of a larger 5.17-acre parcel that was rezoned from R-5D to
Condibonal B-2 Community Bus~ness District on July 14, 1998 The proffers
were recorded in Deed Book 3938 at Page 1587. The 5 17-acre parcel was
subd~wded into four separate parcels, labeled Parcels A to D Th~s s~te ~s labeled
as Parcel D and ~s undeveloped Parcels B and C were recently developed ~n
accordance w~th the proffers as a retad center named "Salem Shops". Parcel A at
the western end of the property was recently sold and developed w~th a
convenience store and fuel sales pumps.
The applicant proposes construcbon of a one-story Bank of America branch
cons~sbng of approximately 3,000 square feet of floor area. The Modiflcabon of
Proffers prowde for a building and s~te design that ~s suitable for the bank or
several of the other proffered uses for th~s parcel. The applicant has submitted a
s~te plan layout and architectural elevabons that keep ~ntact some of the key

design features of the original proffer agreement, thereby ma~nta~mng consistent
quality w~th the other parcels involved ~n the original 1998 change of zoning
The Planning Commission placed th~s ~tem on the consent agenda because the
proposed use, as proffered, ~s suitable for the s~te Staff recommended approval.
There was no opposition to the request

Evaluation of Request
The request for a Modification of Proffers is acceptable. The use of the parcel for a
bank is consistent w~th the original uses proffered for the s~te. However, whde a bank
was a contemplated use, the s~te design and architectural elevabon that was proffered
for the s~te were not suitable for a bank, as ~t was thought at the bme of the 1998
rezoning the parcel would be used for a chddcare facility. The Mod~ficabon of Proffers
prowde for a budding and site design that ~s suitable for the bank or several of the other
proffered uses for th~s parcel. The applicant has submitted a site plan layout and
architectural elevabons that keep ~ntact some of the key design features of the original
proffer agreement, thereby maintaining consistent quality. This request is consistent
w~th the goals of the Comprehensive Plan in th~s area and ~s recommended for approval
as proffered.
NOTE:
Further conditions may be required during the
administration of applicable City Ordinances. Plans
submitted with this rezoning application may require
revision during detailed site plan review to meet all
applicable City Codes.

CONSENT
Dorothy Wood: The next item is Item #3, which is the Lynnhaven Block Associates. It's
an Ordinance upon application of the Lynnhaven Block Associates for a Modification of
a Change of Zoning District Classification. It was approved by the City Council on July
14, 1998 and was modified by the City Council on September 25, 2001. The property is
located on Lynnhaven Parkway in the Centervdle District and it has proffers.
Eddie Bourdon: Again, for the record, Eddie Bourdon representing the application. I just
want to take a second to express my appreciation and thanks for staff for working with us
closely on th~s application and the application number one and I appreciate being on the
consent agenda.
Dorothy Wood: Thank you Mr. Bourdon. Barry.
Barry Knight: The use of a parcel for a bank is consistent with the original uses proffered
for the site. However, while a bank was a contemplated use, the site design and
architectural elevation proffered for the site were not suitable for a bank, as we thought at
the time in 1998, that a rezomng would be used for child care facility. The modification
of proffers provide for a building and site design that is suitable for the bank. The
applicant has submitted a site plan layout and architectural elevations that are consistent
with the original proffered agreement, thereby maintaining consistent quality. This
request is consistent with the goals of the Comprehensive Plan in this area. Therefore,
we view th~s as a proper use of the property.
Dorothy Wood: Thank you. Is there any opposition to Item #3, Lynnhaven Block
Associates for a modification in Change of Zoning Classification in the Centervdle
District9 Heanng none. Mr. Rlpley, I would move to approve this consent agenda item
number three Lynnhaven Block Associates with six proffers.
Ronald Rlpley: We have a motion to approve this consent agenda item. Do I have a
second? Seconded by Mr. Will Din. Is there any discussion on the motion? Okay, we'll
call for the question.

AGENDA ITEM
ITEM: Raymond and Marilyn Caffee - Change of Zoning District Classification
MEETING DATE: September 23, 2003
· Background:
An Ordinance upon Application of Raymond, Sr and Manlyn I. Caffee for a
Change of Zon~n.q D~stnct Class~flcabon from A-12 Apartment D~stnct to R-5D
Residenbal Duplex D~stnct on property located at 5019 Bonney Road (GPIN
14679077510000). The Comprehensive Plan recommends use of th~s s~te for
res~denbal uses above 3.5 dwelling un~ts per acre. DISTRICT 2 - KEMPSVILLE
The purpose of th~s request is to revert the zoning on the subject property back to
the previous zoning in order to construct a s~ngle-family dwelling
Considerations:
The property ts currently vacant and zoned A-12 Apartment D~stnct. The
applicant ~s planning to construct a s~ngle-fam~ly dwelling, which ~s not a
permitted use in the A-12 Apartment Distr~ct
The subject parcel was part of a 1984 rezon~ng of the townhouse property to the
south, which was rezoned from R-8 Residential (now called R-5D Res~denbal
Duplex) to A-1 Apartments (now called A-12 Apartment)
This parcel was apparently originally intended to serve as a vehicular access for
the townhouses, however, a d~fferent access was used. S~nce th~s property ~s
not needed for the townhouse development, a more appropriate preference in
terms of zoning ~s to change the zoning back to R-5D Res~denbal Duplex D~stnct
to match the zoning on e~ther s~de of the property and across Bonney Road Th~s
change w~ll create a consistent zoning pattern for the lots fronbng Bonney Road
~n the ~mmed~ate wc~n~ty The applicant ~s prepared to construct a s~ngle-fam~ly
dwelling on the property should th~s request be granted
The Planning Commission placed th~s item on the consent agenda because the
proposal ~s consistent w~th the zoning pattern of the adjacent lots. Staff
recommended approval There was no opposibon to the request

Zoninq and Land Use Statistics
With Existing Approximately s~x mulb-family un~ts are permitted under
Zoning: the ex~sting A-12 zoning
With
Proposed
Zoning:
One s~ngle-family dwelling or one duplex dwelhng
would be permitted under the proposed R-5D zoning.
Although there is enough lot area to subd~wde the lot
~nto four single-family lots or two duplex lots, there is
~nsufficient lot width to resubd~vide without a
Subd~wsion Variance.
Zonin,q History
The subject parcel was part of a 1984 rezoning of the townhouse property to the south,
which changed the zoning from R-8 Res~denbal (now called R-5D Residential Duplex) to
A-1 Apartments (now called A-12 Apartment). The townhouse property west of
W~ndbrooke Lane was rezoned from R-8 Res~denbal to A-1 Apartment in 1983.

The site ~s in an AICUZ of less than 65dB Ldn surrounding NAS Oceana.
Public Facilities and Services
Water and Sewer
There is a s~x-inch water main and an eight-~nch grawty sewer in Bonney Road. Th~s

Summary of Proposal
Proposal
· The applicant is planning to construct a single-famdy dwelhng, which ~s not a
permitted use in the A-12 Apartment D~strict
Site Desi,qn
· The applicant submitted a site plan depicbng a s~ngle-famdy residence set back 60
feet from the front property line
· A driveway ~s shown on the east side of the house extending to the rear of the
property, where a detached garage ~s shown
Note, although a plan has been submitted, th~s is not a conditional zoning request,
and therefore, the property ~s not I~m~ted to th~s particular site design. Any use and
design that meet the requirements of the Zoning Ordinance would be permitted.
Evaluation of Request
The applicant's request to change the zoning on this property from A-12 Apartment
D~stnct to R-5D Res~denbal Duplex D~str~ct ~s acceptable. The zoning on th~s property
was changed ~n 1984 when the townhouse development to the south received zoning
approval. Th~s parcel was apparently originally ~ntended to serve as a vehicular access
Planning Commission Agenda
September 10, 2003

for the townhouses. Since it ~s not needed for the townhouse development, a more
appropriate opbon is to change the zoning back to R-5D Res~denbal Duplex D~stnct to
match the zoning on e~ther side of the property and across Bonney Road. Th~s change
will create a consistent zoning pattern for the lots fronbng Bonney Road ~n the
immediate vicinity Therefore, th~s applicabon is recommended for approval.
NOTE:
Further conditions may be required during the
administration of applicable City Ordinances. Plans
submitted with this rezoning application may require
revision during detailed site plan review to meet all
applicable City Codes.

Res~denbal D~stnct w~th an Open Space Promobon The lots are shown as flag
lots on the submitted plan The applicant ~s seeking a Subdivision Variance for
those lots.
The s~te is located w~th~n the Trans~bon Area Res~denbal development should be
a secondary component of the open space, and the overall development should
strive to achieve a m~nimum of 50 percent open space using the exisbng natural
resources. The applicant proposes 60 percent open space throughout the
development, ~nclud~ng areas of the exisbng natural resources and the land area
encumbered by the greater than 75dB Ldn AICUZ. Staff ubl~zed the Transibon
Area Matrix to determine the permitted number of lots w~thin the proposed
development.
The proposed development ~s configured to protect and maintain the existing
natural areas along the right-of-way and perimeter of the s~te. A m~n~mum 300-
foot buffer of ex~sbng treed areas along Indian River Road ~s maintained as a
scenic buffer, as recommended by the Trans~bon Area Design Guidehnes. The
buffer area will insure that a wooded area ~s maintained along Indian R~ver Road
and w~ll effectively camouflage the residenbal development from the roadway.
Large open space areas of woods and wetlands are maintained on both the
western and eastern s~des of the site E~ght foot w~de mulch tra~ls meander
through the buffer areas.

Summary of Proposal
Proposal
· The applicant proposes to rezone the site from AG-1 and AG-2 Agricultural Districts
to Cond~bonal R-20 Residential D~strict and to obtain a Cond~bonal Use Permit for
Open Space Promobon The Open Space Promobon allows for a reducbon ~n lot
sizes prowded a m~n~mum of 15percent open space is prowded throughout the
development W~thin the R-20 Res~denbal Open Space Promobon, the m~nimum lot
s~ze ~s 12,000 square feet. The proposed development w~ll consist 45 lots varying in
s~ze from 12,000 square feet to 41,129 square feet with an average lot size of
15,875 square feet
The s~te ~s located w~th~n the Transition Area. Residential development should be a
secondary component of the open space and strive to achieve a m~n~mum of 50
percent open space using the ex~sbng natural resources. The applicant proposes 60
percent open space throughout the development, ~ncluding areas of the ex~sbng
natural resources and the land area encumbered by the greater than 75dB Ldn
AICUZ Staff ubl~zed the Trans~bon Area Matrix to determine the permitted number of
lots w~th~n the proposed development A copy of the matrix can be found at the
conclusion of th~s report.
Site Desiqn
· The proposed development is configured to protect and maintain the ex~sbng natural
areas along the right-of-way and perimeter of the s~te. A minimum 300-foot buffer of
ex~sting treed areas along Indian River Road is maintained as a scenic buffer, as
recommended by the Transibon Area Design Guidelines. The buffer area w~ll ~nsure
that a wooded area is maintained along Indian R~ver Road and effectively
camouflage the res~denbal development from wew Large open space areas of
woods and wetlands are maintained on both the western and eastern s~des of the
s~te. E~ght foot w~de mulch tra~ls meander through the buffer areas

Vehicular and Pedestrian Access
Vehicular access is limited to a s~ngle entrance from Indian River Road The
entrance road curves through approximately 600 feet of wooded open space. The
design of the entrance provides a scenic wew into the development.
· E~ght foot wide mulched trails are proposed through the open space along the
eastern side of the site and along the front of the site.
· A sidewalk and pedestrian crosswalks are proposed along the ma~n entrance road.
Stub streets are proposed for connectivity to adjacent parcels.
Architectural Design
· The applicant did not proffer architectural elevations for the proposed dwellings
within the development. Proffer 6 I~m~ts exterior finishes to brick, stone, hard~-plank
siding or drywt. No vinyl s~ding wdl be permitted. Living area w~th~n the dwellings wdl
be a minimum of 2,400 square feet for ranch style structures and 2,600 square feet
for two-story structures. All homes are required to have a two-car garage and
exposed aggregate or stamped concrete driveways.
Considenng the minimum square footage of the dwellings, the required exterior
building materials, and the sales prices of homes situated to the north on Indian
R~ver Road, staff concludes that the homes w~ll have a value of $400,000 or more,
consistent w~th the recommendabons of the Comprehensive Plan for the Transition
Area. While not proffered, the applicant has submitted elevabon drawings of homes
that a builder has proposed for this development as well as a letter from that builder
noting that the lots within the development w~ll sell between $110,000 to $135,000
and the sales prices w~ll start in the Iow $400,000 range.
Landscape and Open Space
· Wetlands areas are located on the eastern port~on of the s~te. The western portion is
heawly wooded and impacted by the highest AICUZ. The applicant has designed the
s~te to take advantage of the natural resources and AICUZ ~mpacted areas that
currently ex~st Both of these areas w~ll be left as natural open spaces, w~th
recreational tra~ls meandenng throughout. A varying natural buffer of a m~n~mum of
300 feet w~de w~ll be maintained along Indian R~ver Road, ~n keeping with the
recommendabons of the Trans~bon Area Design Guidelines.

R-20 Res~denbal D~strict, and obtain a Conditional Use Permit for Open Space
Promobon ~s acceptable as proffered and subject to the conditions I~sted below. The
applicant has submitted a conceptual s~te plan and proffer agreement that effecbvely
addresses the recommendabons of the Trans~bon Area Design Guidelines. A copy of
the Trans~bon Area Matrix can be found at the end of this report.
Conditional Chanqe of Zoning and Conditional Use Permit
The Transition Area Design Guidelines suggest that developments should strive for a
minimum of 50 percent open space by designing w~th nature, making a special effort to
preserve and showcase s~gn~ficant environmental resources. The applicant ~s proposing
60 percent open space ~n the form of wetlands areas, heawly wooded areas
encumbered by the h~ghest no~se zone designabon surrounding Fentress A~rfleld and
NAS Oceana, and a varying w~dth buffer of a m~n~mum 300-foot along Indian R~ver

Road, which preserves the ex~sbng scenic view Mulched walking trads meander
through the buffer along Indian R~ver Road and the eastern s~de of the s~te
The Guidelines suggest that the development should contain lots of varying s~zes. The
proposed Conditional R-20 Residential D~stnct w~th an Open Space Promobon allows
the lots to be reduced ~n s~ze to 12,000 square feet in order to preserve open space.
The applicant proposes lots varying in s~ze from 12,000 square feet to 41,129 square
feet w~th an average lot size of 15,875 square feet. The lots are clustered in cul-de-sacs
and in small groups along the ma~n roadway w~th all rear yards and some s~de yard
facing open space areas.
The Guidelines suggest that the development should be fiscally neutral. The apphcant
provided documentabon that the m~n~mum starting price for a home w~th~n the proposed
development will be ~n the Iow $400,000 dollar range. The proposed dwellings will be
constructed of h~gh quality building materials, m~n~mum square footage requirements,
and double car driveways and garages. Additionally, the applicant ~s proffenng cash
proffers of $750.00 per lot, which equates to $33,750.00, for purchase of open space (or
for any other public purpose after 20 years) w~th~n the C~ty of Virginia Beach.
Subdivision Variance
Four of the lots in the development do not meet minimum lot width and thus a variance
to the requirements of the Subdivision Variance ~s required Staff evaluation of a
Subdiws~on Variance is based on several factors, including the degree of compliance
w~th C~ty ordinances and regulations, consistency with the Comprehensive Plan, and
adherence to good accepted land use and development practices and theory. Personal
hardship does not enter into the Staff's evaluation. Above all, Staff's evaluation ~s based
on Section 9 3 of the Subd~wsion Ordinance, which addresses variances to the
ordinance Secbon 9.3 of the Subdiws~on Ordinance states.
Section 9 3 of the Subdivision Ordinance states:
No variance shall be authorized by the Council unless it finds that:
A. Strict applicabon of the ordinance would produce undue hardship
The authorization of the variance will not be of substantial detriment to
adjacent property, and the character of the neighborhood will not be
adversely affected.
C
The problem involved ~s not of so general or recurnng a nature as to make
reasonably pracbcable the formulabon of general regulabons to be

D,
The hardship ~s created by the physical character of the property,
including d~mensions and topography, or by other extraordinary s~tuation
or cond~bon of such property, or by the use or development of property
~mmediately adjacent thereto. Personal or self-inflicted hardship shall not
be considered as grounds for the ~ssuance of a variance.
E.
The hardship ~s created by the requirements of the zoning district ~n which
the property ~s located at the bme the variance is authorized whenever
such variance pertains to provisions of the Zoning Ordinance ~ncorporated
by reference ~n this ordinance.
Staff recommends approval of the requests for a conditional change of zoning from AG-

in this zope.
The Navy acknowledges the landowners' desire to develop
their property, but I urge you to deny their request. We would
v~ew residential development at this site as encroachment upon
operations at Naval Air Station Oceana. ~f you have any

Robert Miller: The next items are Items #34, 35 & 36, F Donald Reid. Mr Chairman, I
need to abstain from these.
Eddie Bourdon: For the record, Eddie Bourdon representing the applicant. I know from
the informal session, and the lateness of the hour you prefer that I would be brief so I will
do my best to do just so. The piece of property that I think most of you know, Mr. Rind,
who is here, as is Steve Val, one of the principals from Lifestyle Homes, and they will be
ones who wall be bmldlng these very beautiful homes that are proposed on th~s project.
The property has been in the Potter family for over a half century. Actually, I thought
Mr. Potter was going to be here from Florida, but we haven't seen h~m. The properties
on Indian River Road, just at the north side of the Transition Area, adjacent to the green
hne and you can see a httle bit of what's up there and the fact that development ~s
occumng on the other side of the bridge north of this site. The proposal as your staff has,
and we have worked with them for frankly ten months in working through this process
and waiting for the TATAC Committee. I guess Jon Glass is watching. This apphcatmn
was filed before the TATAC Committee was organized. This ~s not a rushed apphcatlon
after TATAC I don't th~nk we have any of those, but anyway the apphcat~on involves
de&cated 60 percent of the s~te to open space with extensive trml system. The property
~tself ~s 47.3 acres of developable lands and only 45 lots are bmng proposed We
mmntaln a beautiful buffer that exists today, very heawly treed along Indian R~ver Road.
Th~s property ~n my comment to Don when ~t was first brought in, lays out perfectly for
what the Comprehensive Plan ~s looking for and as TATAC went through and made their
recommendations, it totally fell into place. We provided a trail system both along Indian
R~ver Road of 300 feet or more of area that's mmntalned ex~sttng vegetation, a well-
treated open space. We put a trml through here, as well as trails up ~n th~s area of open
space on the property Th~s can easily be put w~th~n the trad system that is annmpated
and enws~oned from Stumpy Lake to Back Bay Wlldhfe Refuge. The trails wall be a
creation by the developers of the property We have a very nice entrance road. Create an
entrance road on both s~des, s~dewalks on both s~des. You don't see the housing from the
road at all. There will be a beautiful entryway The proffers are actually what we seen ~n
the previous Transition Area application. We prowded access to the property here for the
future and also access to the property here for the future development. This is the
AICUZ line and the h~gh noise zone over here Under the current AICUZ map and that's
based on flight operations out of Fentress, which is slated to hopefully go away or
significantly reduced We put the housing over here on the land that's not in a h~gh noise

zone. I think staff has done, and I can't find fault with anything staff had to say. I think
they hit the nail on the head with this apphcatlon in terms of their review of lt. We
worked sensitively with them. We have open space provided along most of the border of
the property where we adjoin an agricultural use. There is some low land over here but
that is what it is and has been, and we have no problem with the condition that we will
supplement existing trees with additional trees and along here we will plant a complete
road trees. There are trees there, and we will maintain them and plant additional trees.
That's one of the conditions that we have no problem with at all. The only condition as
Stephen White had mentioned this morning that's problematic for us is the condition that
involves mandating that we put in a left and right hand turn lane Left turn is not a
problem which we have no problem with a left hand turn lane. We will construct. We
can provide the additional right-of-way for that and frankly that is going to be the more
utilized because that is where the traffic is coming from and most of the traffic is going.
There is no traffic coming northbound that would turning into here and there would be
some but the majority of the trips would be leaving and going north and coming back and
leaving there would be the normal destination points would not be going to the south but
there will be some. And, were not adverse to putting in a right turn lane. We just have
ability to effectuate that We don't own the property here. The idea of moving the
entrance over here is one that we could do but for the fact that there are some isolated non
tidal wetlands in this area and that would require getting permits from the DEQ to do
that. And, I wouldn't say we won't do that, we are concerned about being in a position
where that's no do able, and we are stuck with having to come back for this process. So,
we are perfectly happy with putting in a left turn lane and we're willing and I think
someone is here who will be speaking regarding the property to our south or to our west.
If we can obtain from them the needed right-of-way along Indian River Road we'll put
the turn lane in. It's just we don't have the authority or the ability to get that, and we
have put this entrance road at the location that is the highest ground and also significant
distance from the curb here. But, again, that is not saying that if we moved it up here or a
turn lane in that would be a problem It wouldn't but we do have a concern about the
permitting process for the non-tidal wetlands that would involve some disturbance.
Ronald Rlpley: Did you do wetlands delineation? Have you quantified what's there?
Eddie Bourdon: There's been delineation there. Unfortunately, Mike Perry is not here so
I'm not really in a position, and I don't know much about it, but there are some non-tidal
wetlands, specifically in this area but they are eye sight but there really ~sn't, and we did
look at is there a way to come through here without impacting those and the answer ~s no
So, that's the problem. Their indication to me was that ~t would be problematic to get
those permits
Ronald Pdpley: How problematic?
Eddie Bourdon: I'm not the one who can answer that question
Item #34, 35 & 36
F. Donald Reid
Page 3
Ronald Rlpley: Is it a big deal or not? Having that right mm in there would be a good
safety thing especially on a small rural road. And, not having it is obviously not a good
safety situation.
Eddie Bourdon: Well, we are comfortable working with staff and working the property
owner to try to make that happen or to go through the permitting process but those are
both options that are out there but mandating it when this is the way we do lt. We don't
believe that there's enough right-of-way there to do a proffered job in the existing job
with a right hand turn lane.
Ronald Ripley: Faith, did you all look at that?
Eddie Bourdon: Faith IS not here.
Ronald Rlpley: This is your application? Did you look at the degree of wetlands that are
in there that are kind of problematic situation you might see?
Stephen White: I know that Mr. Bourdon is correct, and that there are isolated head-
water wetlands in that area. I can't tell you the exact location though. I discussed this
with Mr. Bourdon yesterday and actually suggested a realignment of that road as your all
talked about But as notes, it would require them getting permits to go through those
isolated head water wetlands, and he could work with the adjoining property owner if so
inclined to provide that right hand turn lane. But, we agree with you that it is a safety
issue and definitely do need to get that right hand turn lane in there.
Eddie Bourdon: And, my understanding is that there is someone here who is involved
with the property adjacent to us. They have met with and talked with City
representatives. They have not contacted me so I have an idea of what they're going to
be talking about, and I suspect that there will be a way to make it happen because I have
not had any communication with them. They haven't communicated with me on lt. Let's
see what they have to say.
Ronald Rlpley: I think Don has a question.
Eddie Bourdon: I think we can provide
Donald Horsley: You got an access just to that property?
Eddie Bourdon: Yes. We prowded an access to that property here.
Donald Horsley: Well, if that property is developed will your road be the access to that
property?
Eddie Bourdon. That's the way we've done it.

Donald Horsley. Well that would make that right turn lane pretty much a natural.
Eddie Bourdon: Correct. We have designed this to provide them so that it will be a
shared access situation if and when this property comes ~nto development and apparently
that is what is being contemplated, so they would not have to have another entrance other
than Indian River Road and clearly that's what would be afforded if that happens. The
problem there is that under the current AICUZ line, they're in the high noise zone so
that's a potential problem that they face. We've also provided a point of access to this
property as well as required by staff so we can have connectivity
Donald Horsley: Alnght.
Ronald Ripley: Are there any other questions? Yes, Will.
Wllham Din: Can you address Lot 45 and maybe the right turn lanes coming into Indian
River Road there? Does it just come right out? Would you need a right and left turn lane
there also?
Eddie Bourdon: Lot 45. That's where the existing home on the property is located and
that lot will be retained. It will be a larger than standard lot. A new house will be built
there and replace the one that ~s there. Across the entire frontage back there will be an
easement for the maintenance of the open space. This part of the lot going back and I
dare say 200 feet would be natural, preserve, stay as it is. The driveway that is there now
will remain. There will be a new house that will be built in place of the one that is there
now. But there would not be a turn lane for that one house. No. It's the same situation
that exists there today. You have one house
Ronald Rlpley: Okay. I think we have some speakers Sorry.
Barry Knight: Eddie, on condition #4, which is the neighbor to the west, Mr. Hamson,
Agricultural Operation you said something about planting some trees but they're
Evergreen trees.
Eddie Bourdon Evergreen trees. The condition is absolute acceptable as written.
Barry Knight And, also we discussed this earlier but the adjoining neighbor also had a
concern. He has an agricultural operation there and wanted to know if it would be okay
to put in additional condition which would be condition #7, which states that the note
shall be placed on the plat of Lots 31-40 as follows: Lots 31-40 may be subject to
sounds, odors and other effects commonly associated w~th agricultural operations.
Eddie Bourdon Perfectly acceptable.
Barry Knight: Thank you.

Eddie Bourdon. That's standard language that we see down the center part of the state.
I'll be happy to add that condition
Ronald Rlpley: Okay. Dot.
Dorothy Wood: Mr. Rabef.
Wade Rabey: Rabey?
Dorothy Wood. I don't know. It looks like R-A-B-E-F.
Wade Rabey' R-A-B-E-Y
Dorothy Wood: Okay. Thank you.
Wade Rabey: Hello folks. My name is Wade Rabey. I'm with Rose & Womble, and I
represent both the Lees, which is across the street here and the Graves property, so this
particular Graves property obviously is going to have to be coordinated with the road that
they're planning on putting in the Potter's piece. I've talked to the Graves, and they
would love to see this project happen. They would have no problem working with the
developer as far as the intersection there. We do have one concern though. It doesn't
line up with the Lee property. There is a wedge that is owned by the State that is directly
across from this intersection right here that we would have to purchase in order to line
our entrance up with this entrance. We really prefer to have that thing shifted over and
the Graves would be willing to dedicate right-of-way for that to happen so that when we
and if we ever do be able to develop these two properties we'll have the entrance in place
and we won't have to put another one that's down here and mess up the taper on the turn
lanes and everything. But we would be willing to give a turn lane right-of-way
dedication for the turn lane and the possibility of giving a right-of-way dedication down
in this area. I believe that when they did the wetlands study for the Potters they also had a
wetlands study for the Graves, so they should enough information to see if there is a
possibility for them to shift that down without slowing their process down any. The other
is the pump station. We don't have any problem with the location. We just want to make
sure that we are going to be included. We fully realize that when we tap into that that
will we have to pay a pro-rata type situation, but we just want to make sure that if we
have the possibility to develop these two pieces that it's sort of master planned with the
Potters piece. And, that's basically all we have. We'll be happy to meet with Eddie and
Mr Reed and work that out. The both of these properties are for sale and based on that
noise issue which is really what's been holding these people back other than the
Transition Area. All those people down there have been waiting for a long time. They're
ecstatic over this. We appreciate it. Thank you.

Ronald Rlpley: Before Mr. Lee speaks, Bob, making adjustment to entrances hke that
this is a proffered plan, I'm not sure on how that would fit in at this point
Robert Scott. I th~nk what you have here is a plan where we're not intending to nail
down the exact location of Indian R~ver Road where that road would com. There is some
flexibility and it follows a general concept. And you already heard mention of the
wetlands. I don't know where they are but I think wetlands would be a legitimate reason
to adjust some road and other element locations consistent with the overall concept.
Obviously, they can't move the road east. They have no place to move it to but things
could be done. I think that one of the reasons why people go through subdivision review
is that we can coordinate the location of elements like this that develops or properties are
potential subdivisions in the area is to coordinate. If it requires minor adjustments to
elements, and the plans like this then as long as a major concept is adhered to, I don't see
a problem with it
Ronald Rlpley: Okay. Just wanted to make sure that you were okay w~th that. Please
come up.
W.J. Lee: My name ~s Bill Lee. I'm a property owner and a resident practically just
across the street from the Potter property. It's right across here. The hne runs right
straight across these two properties were probably at one time one piece. I've hved out
there for 25 years and every time you lose electnmty you have no water flushing toilets.
I've raised five kids on the property, so that was a problem, so I'm all for the project
particularly the decadence, possibly coming into frmtatlon along w~th the water comes
the water and sewage. And, I'm listed with Rose & Womble and the Graves and myself,
we've had our properties for sale. I think the Graves will probably be willing dedicate
some property if th~s road was moved this way, and they would probably dedicate
property for a turn lane. If that's not done, this runs directly into a piece of property that
the State owns and then if this is developed, you will have access here but my piece on
this side would have to be another road access to Indian River Road By moving this
over this way with a dedication you would have one intersection and that would limit the
access to Indian River Road to one position. That's my comments on the project.
Ronald Rlpley: You pretty much confirmed with the previous speaker said. We
appreciate it.
W.J Lee: I'm sorry.
Ronald Rlpley: I said you're confirming with what the previous speaker said.
W J. Lee Right. Exactly. I've lived there 25 years My taxes are more than double.
I've got nothing in the last 25 years other than the garbage collection. For the ones who
can't develop or maybe to small to get water and sewage and ones that do develop will
realize something for the property they lived off I'm retired so I can use the benefits
from it.

Ronald Rlpley: Thank you Mr. Lee. Are there any other questions of Mr Lee? Thank
you
Dorothy Wood' Bobby Roundtree.
Bobby Roundtree: I've been referred to Ray Flrenze. I'm just here to answer any
operational questions.
Ray Flrenze' Good afternoon. My name is Ray Flrenze. I'm a Community Planning
Liaison Officer for Naval Air Station Oceana. I'm here today on behalf of the Navy to
oppose the planned subdivision by F. Donald Reid and we respectfully urge, that the
rezomng be denied. I will be speaking on operational issues that will affect this area and
any questions regarding the actual operation of an airplane. I would like to refer that to
Mr. Bobby Roundtree. Bobby is signed up as a speaker. Bobby is a retired Naval
aviator He flew Tomcats, Hornets. He was a squadron commander for VFA-136, the
Nighthawks out of Oceana In his last assignment was executive officer of Oceana. The
proposed project would be located about 5½ miles southwest of Oceana and three miles
north of Fentress in a 70-75 decibel day/night average noise zone and partially greater
than 75-decibel noise zone. This site is directly aligned to Oceana's Runway Five, one of
our busiest runways. There are several key flight tracks that pilots use to navigate to and
from Oceana and Fentress that concern us, as they should you. In 2002, Runway Five
accounted for 44 percent of 218,000 annual flight operations. Aircraft on approach to
Oceana conducting straight instrument procedures will fly directly over this property as
well overhead arrivals enter a facility arrivals and departures to and from Fentress. We
are on the north end trending runway. This is our routine right through here. Airplanes
that depart Fentress, Runway Five part come direct to the airport. Airplanes that depart
Fentress after 11:00 o'clock at night between 11-7 will climb to 1,000 feet and landing
configuration proceed direct or straight into the runway. I did an analysis of the traffic
count from August 2002 to date and along this path only. Straight in we flew 6,686
instrument arrivals along that path. This subdivision will be impacted by flight
operations will be subject to high single event noise levels. An F- 18 Hornet of 1,000 feet
has a sound exposure level of 109 decibels An F-18 Super Hornet is expected to have a
sound exposure level of 114 decibels. These are the levels that will be typical for an
aircraft on late night straight in arrivals from Fentress. At an attitude of 1,500 feet on an
instrument approach, the Hornet has a sound exposure level of 106 decibels and a Super
Hornet is a 110 decibels. The sound exposure level represents both the intensity of the
sound and its duration. I'm almost done. So, for an airplane that flies over it includes
both the maximum and lower decibels level and is representative of the entire event
Oceana and Fentress are both 24-hour facilities. We ask that you please consider our
concerns on your way to your final decision We view further development in this area
as incompatible and an encroachment upon the operational mission of Oceana. Thank
you.
Ronald Rlpley Any questions?

Eugene Crabtree. I've got one question
Ronald Rlpley: Gene
Eugene Crabtree. Looking at the two d~agrams, one 1S that we've got protected up there
got a black hne to lt. It shows the h~gh decibel zone ~s to the right of that Yet, you show
here ~n your diagram that ~t goes directly over the entire property
Ray Flrenze: Well no. I actually and I guess I should have made a Power Point.
Eugene Crabtree I'm just curious as to how those relate to each other.
Ray Flrenze: Where the high decibels are posted. I'm not a great artist. I put the 75 here
so I have most of the property ~n the 70-75.
Eugene Crabtree: So, the one up on the projection up there then ~s correct. Is that to the
left hand side is in a permissible zone where that to the right hand is ~n a non-permissible
zone. lVdght?
Ray Flrenze: We do not recommend residential develop in the high no~se zone of 70-75.
Eugene Crabtree: Okay. And, ~t is in the direct flight hne with the runways.
Ray Flrenze: Yes sm
Ronald Rlpley: Okay. Are there any other questions? Charhe.
Charhe Salle'. If I'm understanding your graphic, I assume the red piece is the piece of
property in question.
Ray F~renze: Yes s~r.
Charhe Salle'. What does the yellow represent?
Ray F~renze: That's the Transition Area
Charhe Salle': Okay. So, how much of the yellow area is impacted that all you would
object to any development?
Ray F~renze: It's a real good question. Th~s is a great development ~f you could just
move ~t from here to here. You know, of all the places ~ts right underneath a major
league fl~ght tracks into Oceana on that runway. If you could fl~p these flight tracks over
its the same story up there except nobody lives out over the water.
Item #34, 35 & 36

Page 9
Charhe Salle': So, within the area, I guess It looks like a triangular Is that coming from
Fentress?
Ray Flrenze. These are different flight tracks. This would be an instrument arrival on a
radar approach, which I quoted you as 6,600 plus here. And, th~s ~s another ~nstrument
approach, which is what we call a tactmal approach where the pdot just navigates the
thing by himself. Here he ~s getting help from the comptroller. He navigates by himself
and he's being momtored But coming off of Fentress going straight northeast especially
after 11:00 o'clock he does h~s touch and go at Fentress, he comes up and gets to 1,000
feet, wheels down for landing straight ~n to Oceana so he's just screening the nmse
strmght across.
Charhe Salle': You see that triangular path that goes from Fentress?
Ray Flrenze: Here?
Charhe Salle': No. That you've drawn on here. It looks like all of that area and I guess
it's anything outside of that area okay. It looks hke the base of the triangle, the broad
part is at Fentress and it narrows down to the apex at Oceana. Is everything between
those lines the area that you have a problem w~th?
Ray F~renze. Yes sir. And it's not just they're going to be effected by nmse from the
repetitive patterns operations at Fentress and the straight in amvals to Oceana. So, while
they're sp~nnlng around out here on Runway Five, they're in a repetitive operation and
they'll get ~t agmn once they come off and come back
Ronald Rlpley: Gene Crabtree has a question.
Eugene Crabtree: Does the current enwronmental impact study that apparently is being
done still verify this as a danger zone?
Ray Flrenze: It all depends on what the Secretary of the Navy picks. There are eight
basing options. There's two preferred options but they're all out there on the table.
Okay, to answer your question, if he p~cks option SlX, alternative number s~x, not much
changes. But, we don't know that until he makes a decision and we put ~t on paper.
Eugene Crabtree: I understand that he hasn't made his demsion yet.
Ray Flrenze: No sir, he has not After the 18th of August, anytime after that a decision
could be made.
Eugene Crabtree: So, we're in limbo

Ronald Ripley: We have a gentleman raising his hand back there. You already spoke
and only if its new information.
W.J. Lee: It's in reference to the noise. I hve right there directly in the path.
Ronald Rlpley: Come on up if ltS new information please.
W.J. Lee: It's in reference to the noise information that you received from Mr. Flrenze I
live right there directly in the path probably Sometimes the airplane goes right over the
house and sometimes it's to the right and to the left. I have a high regard for the military
and the Navy but at one time, their high noise zone was on the other side was on the other
s~de of North Landing Road. Fentress is fixed plus Oceana has cross-runways. All the
traffic doesn't go between Oceana and Fentress It has a cross runway. It depends on the
wand but they can also land m different directions Fentress has two landing practme
positions, I guess or whatever you might call it whether it can come an and practice on
any and I guess sometimes they do their go around on the Chesapeake side and
sometimes they do it closer to the Beach side. So, I know there's a noise issue but I'm
trying to down play ~t I guess to some extent because I live there and when I'm in the
house the noise doesn't bother me at all. It doesn't bother me when I'm outside. The 75
decibels or higher was totally on the other sade of North Landing Road one tame and
Fentress is fixed. And for some reason they moved it over to the Potter sade the lease
side of North Landing Road. I don't know why they did that but maybe they got some
pressure from Chesapeake to switch at or something. They don't always go directly to one
field to the other plus they have cross-runways that they could use
Ronald Rlpley: Thank you very much.
Eddie Bourdon: Mr Chairman, first of all with regard to Mr. Rabey's comments, Mr.
Item #34, 35 & 36
F. Donald Reid
Page 11
Lee's comments, we're in total agreement. Master planning is the way to go. We don't
control where the pump station would be located, but the pump station will be there and a
service area will encompass some or all of their properties We are perfectly happy to
work, as I said and as I kind of thought was going to be the case, with moving the
entrance over if they'll dedicate the land, we'll build it and we'll build the right turn lane
That's an easy one. And, that works for everybody. We tried to master plan lt. I see
where they thought it was better if it was over here. If they'll work with us we'll do lt. I
think any change in that regard is within the Planning Director's discretion as being
substantially and keeping with the plan because we're not changing anything as far as the
nuts and bolts of development, just makes it a better plan and a better development
They'll do what they indicated we're there with them. We'll build the road and put the
turn lane in and that works very well. My comments with regard to what I heard from the
Navy. I understand that Bobby and Ray are the messengers and as all they are The
expressions of disappointment, then let it be a disappointment, and they are not
necessarily directed at them. But, a number of years ago when the first BRAC
Commission came about, Senator Warner represented a p~cket, represented as a TVA,
TVR, Vlrglma Beach Division, City of Vlrg~ma Beach all worked and stake holders all
worked diligently for many, many months. In finally resolving an issue that had been out
there for years as to how to handle land use ~ssues around Oceana, given the noise issues
and that has worked very, very well for qmte a number of years. And, now all of a
sudden and I could only count because I th~nk this ~s where it lies lack of pohtxcal
leadership and lack of strength and some Navy admirals getting involved in politics
rather than dealing with staying the course, doing the right thing. Now we got changing
of positions. Mowng all around It's a moving target. Telhng people and taking the land
over without buying, affecting what they can do without paying for it. It wasn't the case
before we had something we could deal w~th. Something that everybody was deahng
with and now because of the Hornet basing decision, which has been out there for many,
many months, we see a change in policy. And, that is actually what is happemng. It's a
change in policy. Where were the Navy representatives when we decided to spend $200
and some million dollars for the Pavilion expansion9 Where were they? We didn't hear
from them. Is the City paying $200 mdhon dollars to put a Pawhon expansion in the
high noise zone where it shouldn't be9 There are a lot of other examples that I can s~ght
but I'm not going to go through it all tonight or today. You all know it. You understand
the situation. I'm not going to go into it in great detail. But, this kind ofpohtlcs, why
doesn't make any sense We're living under the rules that we all lived under and are
working with as a community tried to work with I support the Navy strongly as anybody
does and a lot of other people in this community that when this stuff starts flipping and
flopping and going all over the place, you have rural support and that's what will happen
if they don't stay the course and stay consistent in their leadership Thank you
Ronald Ripley. Thank you That's getting on the soapbox there Okay Are there any
other speakers~ We'll open it up for comments.
Donald Horsley I'll start because I have to go. I think the applicant did an outstanding
job developing a piece of property that probably ten years ago everybody rode by and
Item #34, 35 & 36
F Donald Reid
Page 12
said that property will never be developed. But, I think lie's done an outstanding job I
think he's addressed the concerns of any neighbors that came by I think he's shown a
willingness to work with the adjoining property owners, and I think this is a good
amenity in the Transition Area. The 60 percent open space is a benchmark for a lot of the
developments we can look at now So, I support the application. When you're ready for
a motion, I'll make It.
Ronald Rlpley: Are there any other comments? Barry.
Barry Knight: I support the application also. I did have a little blt of concern about and
I've heard it smd so many times about the Navy has a moving target. We all support the
Navy. We all want as many squadrons here as we can possibly get, and we want to
support them but this moving target. We've it mentioned many, many times but this a
nice development. Just actually like Don said and when it is t~me to make a motion
please include condition #7.
Ronald Rlpley: Is there anybody else? Jan.
Jamce Anderson: I'm going to support the project also. I th~nk it falls right In place with
what the Transition Area. So far as the nmse zone, I think we have to stick hke Mr.
Bourdon smd right now, housing is allowed in these other places from 70 up to 75 and
that's what ~t ~s zoned now, so I don't see holding ~t up and thinking five months about It
may change. And they don't have any housing In that higher zone so I don't have any
problem with that.
Ronald R~pley: Does anybody wish to say anything else? Gene.
Eugene Crabtree. I have a problem w~th the nmse zone and the direct fl~ghts because as
everyone knows I support the Navy and the air space totally. I think the development is
an excellent development and the way ~t's drawn up on the board. But I do have
reservations because it's In that direct fl~ght hne. However, If It's built and people buy in
that area then they're taking their own chance. I wouldn't want them ten years from now
coming back and blaming the Navy for it Not being able to hear right or whatever But
I just want to say that and I do have reservations about this.
Ronald R~pley: It appears to meet the ~ntent of the guidelines for the Transition zone. It
seems like it's been worked through pretty thoroughly. I do also favor approval of this.
I say it's uniquely laid out, but it's lind out for the Transition guldehnes, which does
make it unique I am concerned too with the noise zone Issue, but on the other hand I
have some concerns with the way perhaps we need to resolve that difference, and we
need to resolve the policy if you will so that the Navy and the City can reside together,
and we don't have conflicts on this type of Issue. Barry, do you wish to make a motion?
Barry Knight' I'm ready to make a motion

Indian River Road to meet this requirement.
The Southeastern Parkway and Greenbelt ~s designated on the Master
Transportabon Plan as a 350 foot w~de right-of-way h~ghway. Preliminary design
depicts the roadway passing through the southern porbon of th~s s~te and ulbmately

Summary of Proposal
Proposal
· The applicant ~s proposing to construct a one story, 10,000 square foot church w~th
seabng for 300 people ~n the sanctuary and 75 parking spaces ~n the proposed lot.
Planning Commission Agenda

VILLAGE CHURCH / # 20

Site Desiqn
· The s~te layout plan depicts a 50-foot by 200-foot structure w~th 75 parking spaces
on the three (3) acre parcel
All construcbon will be located on the north end of the site, at the 50-foot front yard
setback, measured from the required 50-foot reservabon from Indian R~ver Road
This reservabon w~ll be required along Indian R~ver Road to accommodate the 150
foot ulbmate right-of-way w~dth as designated ~n the Master Transportabon Plan.
Preliminary designs for the Southeastern Parkway and Greenbelt show the h~ghway
crossing the rear third of the buddable area of th~s s~te (where the stormwater
management pond is depicted on the site plan). The Iocabon of the h~ghway ~n th~s
Iocabon w~ll, ~n the future, reduce the final acreage of the parcel to under the
minimum three (3) acres required by the C~ty Zoning Ordinance In addition, the
proposed alignment and location of the Southeastern Parkway and Greenbelt w~ll
impact the amount of open area and property available for future expansion of the
church and parking lot.
Vehicular and Pedestrian Access
· The s~te layout plan depicts one ~ngress/egress from Indian R~ver Road
· Pedestrian access ~s adequate
Architectural Desi,cln
· The front elevation depicts a brick (colonial red) veneer fagade w~th a decorabve
metal roof. Four arched windows, two on e~ther s~de of the pediment-covered entry,
are also proposed along the front fagade. Architectural metal wall panels are
~denbfled for use on both the s~des and rear The applicant has ~nd~cated that these
panels will be "sand finish" color. The metal panel roof w~ll be bronze
· The building height ~s approximately 22 feet from the ground to the base of the
steeple. The total height of the steeple ~s not known.
Landscape and Open Space
· The residual open area, encumbered by floodplain, wetlands and the Southeastern
Parkway and Greenbelt ahgnment, I~mits the amount of open space available for
potenbal future expansions.
· Although not depicted on the layout plan, foundabon landscaping will be required
along the fagade of the building facing Indian R~ver Road as well as w~thin the

parking lot and along the right-of-way (streetscape landscaping).
Staff has recommended a cond~bon that Category I landscaping be ~nstalled along
the western property I~ne to help screen the building from the res~denbal property to
the west
Evaluation of Request
Staff can support this request for a Conditional Use Permit, however staff has concerns
about the wab~l~ty of th~s s~te for any future growth of the church. The most s~gn~flcant
~mpact to th~s s~te for the proposed church stems from the potenbal Iocabon of the
Southeastern Parkway and Greenbelt on the rear of the s~te. The alignment of the
proposed Parkway impacts the southern third of the bu~ldable property outside of
floodplain, wetlands, etc and reduces the potenbal for further expansion of the church.
Secbon 230 of the Zoning Ordinance requires a m~nimum lot area of three (3) acres for
churches Th~s requirement ~s parbcularly important for new, freestanding churches
where the potential for growth ~s almost unlimited assuming enough land area is
available for future planning It ~s in the best interest of any church, particularly churches
~n new freestanding structures, to plan for any future growth, expansion and ~ncreased
membership. While the church as a use ~s not objectionable, staff ~s very concerned
that the resulbng acreage minus the Southeastern Parkway and Greenbelt right-of-way
(resulbng ~n approximately 60,000 square feet or 1.38 acres) ~s not likely to be enough
to accommodate future desires of the church Addibonally, the Iocabon of the
Southeastern Parkway and Greenbelt along the rear third of the s~te will, ~n the future,
hamper the potenbal for Iocabng any future structures behind the building The C~ty
Zoning Ordinance (Secbon 203(b)) requires that yard setbacks be measured from the
ultimate right-of-way of roadways shown on the Master Transportabon Plan.
Staff communicated these concerns to the applicant's representabve. However, the
applicant's representabve noted via correspondence w~th the Staff that
"First, the church has bought the property ~n good faith. Second, the
property is at 3 acres ~n size Third, the Southeastern Expressway
has been d~scussed for the last twenty years or more and may
never get built. Chesapeake has objected to ~ts construcbon for
many years Although the present leaders may have ~nterest ~n ~t
being built, many pol~bc~ans now running for office here do not want
it therefore new leadership may k~ll the project. (~ e on again / off

The Southeastern Parkway and Greenbelt, regardless of pol~bcal or personal opinions,
~s sbll a cnbcal component of the C~ty's Master Transportabon Plan and ~s a h~gh priority
of the C~ty Councd and must be considered Its ~mpacts on th~s s~te ~n the future are
s~gn~flcant and w~ll ~mpact any future growth of a church on th~s s~te. There are,
however, adjoining parcels to the north and south that the church could acquire ~f
church growth d~ctates the need for add~bonal land area
Staff, therefore, recommends approval of this request w~th the conditions below, but
notes the hm~tations on church growth that the Southeastern Parkway and Greenbelt
w~ll place on th~s s~te

CONSENT
Dorothy Wood: The next item is Item #20 is the Village Church. It's an ordinance upon
application of Village Church for a Conditional Use Permit for a church on property
located on the south side of Indian River Road near Elbow Road in the Centervllle
District and it has six conditions. Yes sir?
William Verebely: Good afternoon. Mr. Chairman and members of the Commission, my
name is William Verebely. I'm the architect and agent for the church. We've read the
conditions and we agree.
Dorothy Wood: Thank you Mr. Verebely. Is there any opposition to the Village Church
with six conditions east of Elbow Road in the Centervdle District? Mr. Din.
Wllham Din: Just to provide some additional comments on this. The purpose is to
construct a new freestanding church at this site. It is also a long narrow lot. The church
is sized for approximately 300 people with 75 parking spaces This lot is impacted by the
Southeastern Parkway and Greenbelt. However, the apphcant knows this and there is no
building on the impacted site. It is an appropriate use here so we have placed this also on
consent.
Dorothy Wood: Thank you very much. Mr Rlpley, I would move to approve number
#20 with six conditions.
Ronald Rlpley: So we have a motion by Dot Wood to approve. Do I have a second?
Seconded by Barry Kmght. Any discussion? Let's call for the question.

CONSENT
Dorothy Wood: The next item is Item #30 and it is for Bayslde Baptist Church. An
ordinance upon application of Bayslde Baptist Church for a Conditional Use Permit for a
church and preschool, 1920 Pleasure House Road in the Bayslde Dlstrtct. That has three
conditions. Mr Perry.
Mike Perry: Good afternoon. My name is Mike Perry. I'm a local landscape architect
representing the apphcant and we do agree on the conditions.
Dorothy Wood: Thank you sir Is there any opposition to the Bayside Baptist Church?
Ronald Rlpley: Mr Perry9 We understand that there was some discussion with the
applicant and the City about changing the curb cut on Victory?
M~ke Perry: That's correct. Yeah ~t was on V~ctory We had shown a proposed entrance
on Victory and we were looking to relocate that down to Pleasure House Road but we are
leaving that entrance as shown on the conceptual s~te plan.
Ronald Rlpley: Okay. There's no misunderstanding about that then?
Mike Perry: That is correct.
Ronald Rlpley: Okay. Thank you.
Dorothy Wood: Thank you. Gene, would you please comment on the Bayslde Baptist
Church.
Eugene Crabtree: Once again, we felt like the Use they are proposing for this property is
a good use. They have agreed to leave some of the trees that are there already and plant
more trees so environmentally they will be very good for the community The bmldlng
that they're going to build will be compatible with the existing structures. I understand
that sometime in the future the City ~s going to put sidewalks in the area so that the
pedestrian traffic will be enhanced and will be able to use that area so we thought that
th~s was a good consent item also
Dorothy Wood. Thank you. Mr. Rlpley, I would move to approve number #30 with
three conditions
Ronald Rlpley So we have a motion by Dot Wood to approve. Do I have a second~

Summary of Proposal
Proposal
· The applicant proposes to hold church services and other church-related acbv~ties in
the existing budding. The church has been operating at the site s~nce 1997, but was
unaware of the Conditional Use Permit requirement until recently ~nformed by the
Fire Marshall's Office when the church's fire alarm went off.
The church holds services on Sunday mornings and evenings, Wednesday
evenings, and Thursday mornings. Approximately 50 people attend the Sunday
morning service and 20 people attend the other services. The church has an office
that ~s open dunng typical business hours.
· The church occupies the first floor of the exisbng office budding. The second floor
contains an engineering office, realty office, and temporary service office
Site Desiqn
· The ex~sbng budding ~s rectangular and has a building footprint of 6,000 square feet.
The budding ~s located close to the western property line.
· A total of 42 parking spaces are d~stnbuted around three s~des of the building.
Vehicular and Pedestrian Access
· The property has a vehicular access point on Prowdence Road and can also be
accessed from Depositor Lane through the adjacent bank property.
· S~dewalks already ex~st along the property's Providence Road frontage.
Planning Commission Agenda
August 13, 2003
ABUNDANT HARVEST CHURCH / # 28
Page 4
Architectural Desiqn
· The building ~s a two-story contemporary style structure w~th a red brick exterior on
the first floor and tan EIFS (Exterior Insulated F~nish System) on the second story.
The second story has a row of tinted w~ndows extending across the front and
eastern side of the building. The front of the building ~ncludes a brick sem~-circular
tower feature, which extends to the second floor.
Landscape and Open Space
· Although some landscaping is present w~thin the s~te, overall landscaping does not
meet requirements s~nce ~t was developed prior to the adopbon of the landscape
requirements.
· The presence of just a few mature trees on and around the s~te softens the lack of
required landscaping.
Evaluation of Request
The application for a Condibonal Use Permit for a church ~s acceptable. The proposed
church is compatible with the other uses in the office budding and will not negatively
affect neighboring properbes Gathenng bmes are I~m~ted to off-bus~ness hours w~th the
excepbon of Thursday mornings, during which a one-hour prayer service ~s held

CONSENT
Dorothy Wood. Number #28 is Abundant Harvest Church. It's an ordinance upon
application of Abundant Harvest Church for a Conditional Use Permit for a church on
property located on Providence Road in the Centervllle District with three conditions.
Yes sir.
Pastor Joe Warren. Good morning. I'm Pastor Joe Warren of Abundant Harvest Church
and we agree to those three conditions.
Dorothy Wood: Thank you sir. Is there any objection to Item #28, Abundant Harvest
Church an application for a Conditional Use Permit9 Hearing none. Mr. Crabtree, would
you please comment on that
Eugene Crabtree: Thank you. We felt that a Conditional Use for a church in this
particular building would not interfere with any other offices or any of the other uses of
this particular building. And at the time the church would be utilizing the bmld~ng it
would be a low use by the other businesses. Therefore, there would be no conflict
between them and the other businesses as far as parking was concerned and the church is
limiting the number or people in the groups that are there dunng the period of time when
the businesses may be open. Therefore, we felt like it was ideal for consent agenda.
Dorothy Wood. Thank you Mr. Rlpley, I would move to approve number #28 with
three conditions.
Ronald Rlpley' So we have a motion by Dot Wood to approve. Do I have a second?
Seconded by Barry Knight. Any discussion? Let's call for the question.

Dorothy Wood: Thank you Mr. Gallup. Is there any objection to the Great Neck Baptist
Church on General Jackson Drive with four conditions? Heanng none. Mr. Strange,
would you please comment on that?

compatible with the surrounding area. This item was deferred from the June 11 th heanng

Dorothy Wood: The next item is Item #25, Omnlpolnt/T-Mobde. It's an application of
Omnlpolnt/T-Mobde for a Conditional Use Permit for a communication tower on the
property located on Windy Pines Bend, Princess Anne District. Mr. Gambrell.
Bill Gambrell' Ms. Wood. My name is Bill Gambrell and I represent the applicant
this case. I think there's a modification to one of the conditions.
Dorothy Wood: Yes there was.
Bill Gambrell: And that would be to eliminate the fence requirement. We are ongoing
working with the neighbors to make this the best application we can. We appreciate also
being on the consent agenda.
Dorothy Wood: And you've read the six conditions and you agree with them?
Bill Gambrell. Yes ma'am.
Robert Miller: You said to eliminate the fence?
Bill Gambrell' I'm sorry. To eliminate the condition that requires the fence. Thank you
Mr. Miller.
Ronald Rlpley: It doesn't require a fence?
Robert Miller: It does require a fence.
Bill Gambrell. Correct. I'm sorry.
Dorothy Wood: Would you please state that again for the record
Bill Gambrell. How about if I read the condition the way I understand that it was
written? "The tower must be constructed substantially in conformance with the site plan
entitled "Vepco Penmngton, VA30447A, prepared by Draper Aden Associates and dated
May 13, 2003" Is that correct9
Dorothy Wood. Yes. Thank you sir Is there any objection Item #25 for Omnlpolnt/T-

Donald Horsley: Mr. Gambrell's group has done a good job because we've even got
letters of support from the neighborhood on this and they nestled this tower in amongst
the power lines of the Dominion Power right-of-way and we feel that it will emhance the
cellular service in that area so we think it needs approval.
Dorothy Wood: Thank you. Mr. Rlpley, I would move to approve number #25 with six
conditions.
Ronald Rlpley: So we have a motion by Dot Wood to approve Do I have a second?
Seconded by Barry Knight. Any discussion? Let's call for the question.

was really an eyesore to the neighborhood. And, I have cleaned up the outside to
attractive for the neighbors and the parents that come into my neighborhood.
Ronald Rlpley: How many people do you service now? How many children do you
service?
Cordle Martin. I service five at any given shift and that is 6:00 o'clock morning shift for
those Navy Seals that have to be at work early and then they pick up at 3:00. Then I have
another shift that starts right at about 5:00 o'clock and they pick up about 11 00 o'clock.
What I'm trying to do is stop the night shift. I do have two children of my own and I'm
just getting tired. And, I just want to do it dunng the day.
Ronald Rlpley: Okay. You have five now. We're talking about a total of 10 children?
Cordle Martin. Yes.
Ronald Rlpley: Are there any questions~ Yes, Dot?
Dorothy Wood: We drove by your house and it's very attractive and you're certainly
maintaining it I was wondering, do you have and I could see any fence Do you have
any fenced area for the children to play'~

Cordle Martin' Yes I do As a matter of fact, I had a gate and a chain link fence. And, I
spoke with my neighbor because I wanted to get a larger fence, you know higher And
she says to me, "I really don't want you to get it," so asking her and I want to be in
agreement with her. I was just doing it to protect her and she said that was not necessary.
So, now we have to put the chain linked fence back up.
Ronald Rlpley: Is the chain hnk fence down now?
Cordle Martin: Just a pomon of it. I had moved a shed inside the yard so my neighbors
behind me have moved my shed ~ns~de my yard for me and they're putting chain link
fence back up th~s week
Ronald Rlpley: Okay.
Cordle Martin: We did take it down.
Ronald Rlpley: Is there are any other questions?
Robert Miller: We have another speaker in support. Cheryl Lemmon.
Cheryl Lemmon: Hi. I am Cheryl Lemmon. I live at 3535 Sandy Point Key, just
d~rectly across from Cord~e Martin's home I would probably be one of the people most
affected by any change that she would make to her house good or bad and that affect any
changes in that home Actually, prior to her moving there it was a d~saster Cordle has
been nothing but an exemplary neighbor. I stayed home with my children when they
were younger because of numerous reasons but I stayed home w~th them One of the
reasons included not being able to find competent daycare and when I would drive by
homes where there would be a s~gn outside the home that said daycare with a phone
number and I would look at the home and think, I wouldn't leave my child there for
anything. And, I wanted it to be stated that you drove by her home and it was
~mmaculate. I w~sh my home looked that good. The garden and the garden club that
opposed this and they have more complaints probably about me than they would about
Cordle as far as her home looks. Just a few things and I appreciate the Garden Club and
anyone else's concern about property values and I'm sure that probably the mmn issue
here. Anytime you have something like this in the neighborhood you could be concerned
about their property value going down and those th~ngs that would ~nfluence that would
be no~se, the appearance and the traffic concerns. We live on a cul-de-sac or pretty much
a dead end street And, I know there were some people concerned about that issue. Just
to address a couple of those things First of all the noise, noise has never been a problem
with Cordle's home She does an excellent job ofdaycare She is just an example to be
held up to all daycare providers. But, noise has never been an issue. I don't anticipate it
ever being an issue with Cordle Noise was an issue with other neighbors including
having police involvement eventually to end wild parties that went on there. So, I'm
looking at this. I think one of the mmn concerns was traffic
Item #27

Ronald Rlpley: Ms. Lemmon, your time is out, if you can just conclude.
Cheryl Lemmon: Sure. The main issue I think that everyone had was the traffic. Cordle
has the same number of children now that she would have if she were to increase this, the
number of children that she could have total at one time. They're just spread out. Cordle
includes in her contract issues regarding with her parents issues regarding speed limits
and making sure that they understand what her rules and regulations are and she expects
them to abide by speed limit and any other traffic concerns that will be an issue in the
neighborhood The number of cars at this point would not increase they would just be
concentrated dunng the day as opposed to the weekends and at night.
Ronald Rlpley: Thank you very much
Cheryl Lemmon: Those were the main issues.
Ronald Rlpley. Any questions of Ms Lemmon? Thank you.
Robert Miller: Ellen Lundsford.
Ellen Lundsford: I'll make this very quick. I am Ellen Lundsford, the past president of
the King's Forest Garden Club, civic league and a recent graduate of the Virginia Beach
Neighborhood Institute We are concerned. Kang's Forest is an old established
neighborhood with water on two sides. No through streets, many dead ends, and only
three entrances to the area. When the last 18 lots were built on two years ago in King's
Forest, it created a traffic problem on Royal Palm Drive, which is one of the main
entrances to the area. Unfortunately, Mrs. Martin's daycare center is on Sandy Point
Key, which feeds into Royal Palm and is the only way out of the area So, when you go
into drop off a child at her home you have to go down in the cul-de-sac and turn around
and come back the same way you went. You would have to do that twice a day to pick
them up and to bring them there. Secondly, approving this permit would open the door
for more businesses already one of the woman who lives on ironically Sandy Point Key,
is explonng the idea of opening another daycare center. Since Mrs. Martin already has a
business and in the spirit of compromise, I suggest and would hope that we can limit the
number of her children in her daycare center to five or six. I'm not against children. I
love children. I'm a grandmother of seven. So, I certainly know the need for competent
daycare and certainly I'm sure she can get it. But our dear old neighborhood is not the
place for a daycare center or more businesses. Thank you.
Ronald Rlpley: Thank you very much Are there any questions?
Dorothy Wood. I have a question. Are you representing the garden club or the civic
league?
Ellen Lundsford: We are the same. We are the garden club and the civic league We
combined.

Dorothy Wood: And you had a meeting?
Ellen Lundsford. No, we did not. I verbally called members to discuss this.
Dorothy Wood: Approximately 8 garden club/civic league.
Ellen Lundsford: No, I'm speaking for me.
Dorothy Wood: Thank you.
Ronald Rlpley: Thank you very much. Is there anybody else9 We'll open it up for
discussion. Do you have a question9 Well hold on, you need to come forward. And just
a reminder if it's new information that's what we want.
Cheryl Lemmon: Okay I'm sorry. I missed your name. Ms. Lundsford, when she said
to limit it to five, Cordle has been canng for five children in her home for 3 ½ years.
Ronald Rlpley: We know that. Thank you.
Robert Miller: Thank you.
Ronald R~pley: Okay. Joe.
Joseph Strange: My question is this. When you say you're limited to five does that mean
five at any one time?
Ellen Lundsford: Are you speaking to me?
Joseph Strange: No, I'm asking Cordle.
Cordle Martin: Yes It's five at any given time.
Ronald Rlpley: By the way, you have an opportunity at this point to rebut anything
you've heard or comment on it
Cordle Martin: Thank you.
Ronald Rlpley: You have three minutes.
Cordle Martin: My understanding is that five and being licensed from the State of
Vlrg~ma they said I can only do a certain amount at one given t~me, which is five each
shift.
Joseph Strange: So, basically, I guess my next question to you then is since you're doing
this on two shifts you're probably doing more than five already.
Item #27
Cordle L. Martin
Page 5
Cordle Martin: Yes I'm doing ten total
Joseph Strange: You're doing ten total. So, if you have twelve you're only going to
increase the round trips by two because you're limiting this now to one shift. Is that
right?
Cordle Martin: Yes.
Joseph Strange: Does th~s mean that you're going to have still more than twelve9
Cordle Martin: No, I will not. I will only have the limit that you will approve or
disapprove today.
Joseph Strange: But the maximum trips would be theoretically 24, twelve round trips a
day right.
Cordle Martin: So it will be 20 yes.
Ronald Rlpley: Joe, the condition that staff has recommended is ten maximum.
Joseph Strange. So, there really is going to be no increase in traffic.
Cordm Martin: Correct.
Joseph Strange: Okay. That's what I wanted to know.
Cordle Martin: Well, none of them turn at the cul-de-sac they all turn in my driveway. If
they do not turn in my driveway, I have a letter of permission from my neighbor directly
across the street from me stating they have permission to turn in her driveway. I've been
there 3 lA years and I can say that in 3 V2 years it may have occurred three times. They
always turn in my driveway. And, really that was it as far as the traffic and the parking.
I guess that was the concern
Ronald Rlpley: I have two more questions. Will Din has a question and then Don
Horsley Will
William Din: Ms. Martin, could you clarify for me what the hours of the shift that you
currently run?
Cordle Martin: I currently run a shift of 6:00 a.m until 3:00 p m. And, then I let the
night shift in at 5'00 p m. and they are gone roughly 11 15-11 '30 p.m
William Din: Okay, in other words, you're still caring for ten children over a period
between 6.00 a m until 11.15 p m. The conditions here are changing that to 6.00 a.m. to
6.00 p m
Item #27

Cordle Martin: Yes.
William Din: So, you won't have the traffic late at night.
Cordie Martin: Correct
Wllham Din: Thank you.
Ronald Ripley: Don.
Donald Horsley: Will pretty well asked my question but if you're going to do that you're
going to have ten at one time. Is that what you're going to have?
CordIe Martin: I'm going to go by the State guldehnes stating that I personally can only
keep myself between points or head count either eight toddlers by myself. Of course, I
do have an assistant. Ms. Jennifer Gill, she's been with me since January and then I also
have a teenage daughter that comes in from Pnncess Anne at 12.45 p.m that helps me
out. So, I do have someone there at all times helping me.
Donald Horsley: So, you will have ten there at one time.
Cordle Martin: Never.
Donald Horsley. Never.
Cordie Martin: Never.
Donald Horsley' I mean if you're running a shift from 6:00 - 3:00.
Cordie Martin. I'm going to completely cut out the night shift.
Donald Horsley: Okay. So, you're going to have ten kids there at one time.
Cordie Martin. I'm looking to be approved for up to ten but me, knowing the person that
I am and the care that I want to give to these children I can't see giving all often children
that type of attention. You know, even with an assistant.
Ronald Rlpley: Bob Miller has a question and then Dot Wood.
Robert Miller: No. I have a statement. ! don't know if I ever met anybody any better
organized than you are and you're yard deserves a garden award by the way
Cordle Martin. Thank you.
Robert Miller: It is beautiful. But, from what I'm heanng I think you're really measuring
what you've been dmng and realizing what you would like to do as far as not only the

Particularly, it seems hke your sensitivity to take care of the children and then to your
own well being as well as your children's well being. When it comes time I'm in favor
of supporting.
Ronald Rlpley: Dot.
Dorothy Wood. I was going to make a motion. Mrs Martin has been here since 9.00
o'clock this morning and I think her yard is beautiful and I'll go along w~th her.
