June 8, 2004 VICE MAYOR JONES: Madam Mayor, under the Consent Agenda, I would like to move for approval under Ordinances and Resolutions, Item J.1. Ordinances to Amend and Reordain the City Code: Paragraphs 28-28, 28-29, 28-30, 28-31, 32.5-2, 32.5-4, 32.5-5, 32.5-6, 37-16, 37-53 and 37-54 re water, sewer and stormwater fees by revising provisions for billing, payment and interest on late payments with the revisions that were outlined by Mr. Wood to Line 78, 79 and 80. Item 1B for deferral for two weeks, which is Paragraph 2-108 and 2-132 re probation period of certain 9-1-1 Emergency Communication Employees. So moved, Madam Mayor. COUNCILMAN REEVE: Second. Agenda. Thank you. There is a motion for those Items that were read as part of the Consent Are we ready for the question? MAYOR OBERNDORF: CITY CLERK: By a vote of 11 to 0, with the exception of Number 4 on Planning, Mr. Jones and Mr. Wood voting with an abstention; you have approved the Consent Agenda as read by the Vice Mayor. 4 June 8, 2004 MAYOR OBERNDORF: Mr. Meyer VICE MAYOR JONES: Do you need to have this done right away, Mr. Meyer? There is no hurry on this one, no. We had been considering doing the EMS workers, but did not bring that forward. CHARLES MEYER: The primary reason for this similar to Police and Fire is that the training-in period for Police Academy and Fire Academy frequently takes a candidate well beyond the six-months and you never get to see their job performance. That's one of the reasons why these workers -- initially our thoughts were whether the EMS workers would come on fully trained initially and be able to operate right from the beginning. So, the rationale would be different for the EMS workers. However, there may still be some rationale for the EMS workers. We can either move ahead with this one and bring the EMS workers back at a later time or defer this one. VICE MAYOR JONES: Let's wait. Defer it for two weeks. MAYOR OBERNDORF: It would be June the 22nd. VICE MAYOR JONES: For two weeks, Jim. FORMAL SESSION MAYOR OBERNDORF: Now, Mr. Jones, we'll go back to the Consent Agenda. 3 June 8, 2004 INFORMAL SESSION VICE MAYOR JONES: Item B, Paragraph 2-108 and 2-132 re probation period of certain 9-1-1 Emergency Communication Employees. Does anybody have any questions or comments? COUNCILMAN DIEZEL: Yeah. VICE MAYOR JONES: Mr. Diezel. COUNCILMAN DIEZEL: Louis, I'm surprised we didn't add our new level of employees in the EMS service because of the shift hours they work. I recommend to Council that it be the same as these workers in our standard public safety force, which is 12 months. VICE MAYOR JONES: All right. To do that we have to change the Ordinance, I think. Don't we, Mr. Lilley? CITY ATTORNEY: Yes, sir. VICE MAYOR JONES: Do you want to hold it or do you want to do this tonight and then revise it after they pull it together, Harry, or what do you want to do? COUNCILMAN DIEZEL: Whatever the Council so desires. There is no rush on this that I'm aware of. VICE MAYOR JONES: All right. Why don't we defer this for a week and then we can -- 2 Virginia Beach City Council June 8, 2004 6:00 p.m. CITY COUNCIL: Meyera E. Oberndorf, Vice Mayor R. Jones Harry E. Diezel Margaret L.

Background: Currently, the probation period for City employees other than sworn police and fire personnel is six months. Sworn police and fire personnel have a twelve-month probation period. This ordinance would extend the probation period of 9-1-1 Emergency Communications officers (Communications Officer I, II, and III) and supervisors (Communications Supervisor), as well as emergency medical services employees, from six months to twelve months. This change will make all public safety employees subject to the same probation period. The primary difference between a probational employee and a permanent employee is the extent to which a probational employee may utilize the grievance process. Probational employees may grieve an employment decision to their supervisor and their department director, but they are not entitled to appeal to the personnel board. Probational employees also are not entitled to grieve dismissals. At the June 8, 2004, Council meeting, this item was deferred to evaluate and bring back a proposal to include EMS employees. In evaluating this issue with the public safety department directors, a proposal was brought forth to have the probation period extend for six months beyond the completion of training, rather than twelve months from the date of employment. The training periods for all four public safety departments vary considerably. The Police Department probation period can be as long as 9 - 10 months, leaving only 2-3 months for actual on-the-job observation. Setting a probation period of six months from the completion of training would allow for six months of on-the-job evaluation, which would be internally consistent within public safety departments and consistent with other City employees. This proposal is believed to have merit, however, staff is requesting an additional deferral to July 6, 2004, to ensure it is both administratively and legally feasible. . Considerations: A survey of local govemments in the Commonwealth reveals that a probation period of more than six months for public safety employees is a common practice. For example, Norfolk, Chesapeake, Portsmouth, and Suffolk all have a twelve-month probation period for these employees. . Public Information: Council agenda process. Public information will be handled through the normal . Attachment: Ordinance. Recommended Action: Deferral to July 6. 2004.

MEETING DATE: June 22,2004 . Background: On April 2, 1984, City Council adopted a resolution to create the Resort Area Advisory Commission, now known as the Resort Advisory Commission ("RAC"). The general purpose of the RAC was to review and make recommendations to City Council regarding projects and issues associated with the Oceanfront Resort Area and other resort and tourism related projects and issues as the City Council may refer to the Commission. By ordinance adopted August 29, 1988, City Council added Section 2-6 of the City Code to establish the composition, govemance and administration of the RAC. Section 2-6(b) provides, inter alia, that the governance and administration of the RAC shall be in accordance with its bylaws, dated September 22,1998. This section further provides that amendments to the bylaws must be approved by the City Council. The RAC has proposed amendments to its bylaws (i) deleting the provision pertaining to the term of the RAC, (ii) changing the name of the Department of Convention and Visitor Development to Convention and Visitors Bureau, (Hi) deleting the reference to the Resort Leadership Council, which no longer exists, and (iv) adding a provision to allow the RAC to submit a list of prioritized CIP projects to City staff for review and possible inclusion in the CIP budget. Additionally, Section 2-6 of the City Code should be amended to add a provision pertaining to the term of the RAC in Section 2-6 and address housekeeping items. . Considerations: There are two proposed Ordinances included in this package. The first Ordinance addresses changes to Section 2-6 of the City Code as follows: The deletion of the reference to the bylaws dated September 2, 1998, in Section 2-6(b) will allow approval of future amendments to the bylaws without necessitating an amendment to the City Code. The reference to the Resort Leadership Council in Section 2-6(c) is deleted since the organization no longer exists. A new provision regarding the term of the RAC is more appropriately dealt with in the City Code. The new provision will extend the term of the RAC to June 30 2009. The second Ordinance addresses changes to the RAC's bylaws. The provision regarding the term of the RAC will be deleted since it will be more appropriately addressed in Section 2-6(d) of the City Code. The name of the Department has recently changed and such change should be reflected in the bylaws. The reference to the Resort Leadership Council should be deleted from the bylaws since the organization no longer exists. The additional provision allowing the RAC to submit a list of prioritized CIP projects to City staff for review and potential inclusion in the CIP budget is consistent with the purposes for which the RAC was established. . Public Information: Notice of these Ordinances will be handled through the normal agenda process. . Recommendations: Approve the Ordinance to amend City Code § 2-6 and approve the Ordinance amending the RAC's bylaws. . Alternatives: Reject the ordinances and allow the RAC to terminate on June 30, 2004. .

Background: In September 1998, the owners of a parcel of land located on Hungarian Road placed the property in the City's Agricultural Reserve Program (ARP). As part of the transaction, the property owners reserved, for future development, four (4) three-acre building sites. The property has since been sold, and the present owners of the property now desire that City release the ARP easement from one of the reserved sites and, in exchange, place the easement on another portion of the property not presently under an ARP easement. . Considerations: The attached survey shows the areas that would be exchanged. The respective areas are approximately equal in area. The appraiser who appraised the property for the original ARP purchase has stated by letter that there is no difference in the market value of the two sites. Section 11 of the Agricultural Lands Preservation Ordinance expressly allows exchanges of the type sought by the applicants, and states that the City Council shall allow such exchanges under certain conditions. Those conditions, which are set forth in the attached ordinance as findings of the City Council, are as follows: (1) the acquisition of the proposed Preservation Easement in lieu of the existing Preservation Easement does not adversely affect the City's interests in accomplishing the purposes of the Ordinance; (2) the proposed Preservation Easement area meets all of the eligibility requirements set forth in Section 7 of the Ordinance; (3) the land to be encumbered by the proposed Preservation Easement is of at least equal fair market value, is of greater value as permanent open space, and of as nearly as feasible equivalent usefulness and location for use as permanent open-space land as the property on which the existing Preservation Easement is located; and (4) the consideration for the acquisition of the new Preservation Easement consists solely of the extinguishment of the existing Preservation Easement. The proposed ordinance authorizes and directs the City Manager to execute a Deed of Release and Exchange pursuant to which of the 3-acre sites reserved for future development is exchanged for another reserved site. Such direction is subject to the City Attomey's determination that there are no defects in title to the property to be placed under the ARP Easement or other restrictions or encumbrances thereon which may. in the opinion of the City Attorney, adversely affect the City's interests, . Public Information: No special form of advertising is required . Alternatives: The City Council may deny the proposed exchange if it finds that the requirements specified above have not been met. . Recommendations: Adoption of the ordinance allowing the exchange of reserved sites. . Attachments: Survey showing existing and proposed area reserved for future development.

"" .."-' CITY OF VIRGINIA BEACH AGENDA ITEM ITEM: Ordinance authorizing the execution of a Cost Participation Agreement for the construction of improvements to Stumpy Lake Lane and Archdale Drive and the acceptance of dedicated property located within the project construction area. MEETING DATE: June 22, 2004 . Background: KGS Construction Company (KGS) is the developer of "The Orchard at Glenwood Sections 1, 2 and 3" Subdivision (the "Orchard"). The Orchard consists of three non-contiguous sections of development along Stumpy Lake Lane. Each section has adequate access into and out of the development by means of existing roadways. KGS, however, is required to extend Stumpy Lake Lane through section one and to make right-of-way improvements, including road widening, curbing, etc. to Stumpy Lake Lane in each of the three sections of the Orchard. After these required improvements are completed, a gap of approximately 500 linear feet of unimproved Stumpy Lake Lane will exist between two of the sections of the subdivision. Because that portion of Stumpy Lake Lane is not needed for access to the development, KGS is not responsible financially for the cost of connection of the two sections of Stumpy Lake Lane; connecting the two existing sections of roadway, however, will improve traffic flow in the area, as will improving Archdale Drive. . Considerations: The proposed Cost Participation Agreement with KGS provides for the immediate improvement to the remaining 500 linear feet of Stumpy Lake Lane. It also authorizes improvements necessary to provide additional access via Archdale Drive. KGS will construct these improvements concurrently with the improvements required for the Orchard. The City owns all of the right of way necessary for these required improvements with the exception of a portion of the Archdale Drive right of way, on the north side of Stumpy Lake Lane. The owner of that property, Tate Terrace Realty Investors, Inc., has agreed to dedicate the required property to the City in conjunction with this Cost Participation Agreement. . Capital Improvement Project 2-285 provides for intersection and road segment improvements to increase traffic capacity and safety. Funds are available in CIP 2- 285.196 (Traffic Safety Improvements) for this project. Under the proposed Cost Participation Agreement the City will pay 100% of the costs of the proposed improvements to the 500 linear feet of unimproved Stumpy Lake Lane totaling $350,000. The Agreement benefits the City by providing for improvements to the intersection and road segment in advance of a scheduled CIP project and at a lower cost than the City would othelWise pay through the normal CIP process. . Public Information: The president of the Glenwood Civic League and Homeowners' Association has been contacted and the project discussed with him. He indicated that this is a welcome project for the neighborhood and they fully support the City's effort in this regard. . Alternatives: Do not approve this Cost Participation Agreement, requiring the project to be programmed as a future CIP Project, resulting in a delay and higher costs to the City. . Recommendations: Staff recommends Council adopt the ordinance (i) authorizing the City Manager to execute the cost participation agreement, and (ii) to accept the property being dedicated to the City to construct the project.

("Developer") are parties to a development agreement relating to Phase II of the Town Center Project. The Phase II Project Documents require the VBDA to purchase the 574- space public parking garage to be constructed by Developer on Block 12 upon completion of the garage and other Phase II construction obligations. Developer has requested that the VBDA modify the Phase II Project Documents to increase the purchase price of the Block 12 garage by up to $248,000 to cover the cost of the safety improvements to the garage requested by VBDA and to cover the cost of remediation of unanticipated bad soil conditions. Developer has agreed to dedicate up to $10,000 of the increase for safety improvements to the Block 12 garage and $238,000 to improve a 37,500 square foot commercial structure on Block 8B as follows: a) certain enhancements to the west facade of the building to anticipate that it may be visible to the City's proposed performing arts theater, b) an escalator for public access to the second floor of the Block 8B improvements, and c) enlargement of a Virginia Power transformer to serve Fountain Plaza to allow its off-site relocation. Developer has also agreed to modify the Phase II Project Documents to extend the date by which VBDA must give notice to Developer to cause release of the Theater Parcel from the Option Agreement to October 1, 2004. The obligations of the VBDA with respect to the Block 12 garage are supported by the City pursuant to a Phase II Support Agreement, and the City's obligations shall be funded by (i) the proceeds of the Public Facility Revenue Bonds Series 2003A issued September 9, 2003, the debt service on which will be paid from the revenues generated from the Central Business District - South Tax Increment Financing Fund, and (ii) CIP 3-283. . Considerations: The total increased purchase price of the Block 12 garage will not exceed the $8,400,000 ceiling set forth in the Phase II Development Agreement. The additional costs incurred have been validated by the Authority's construction consultant. This modification will enhance Phase II of the Project and make certain desired improvements to Block 8B of the Project. . Public Information: Through the normal agenda process. .

Background: The City of Virginia Beach roadway network consists of 3,495 lane miles, with annual increases of approximately 20 lane miles. Although the present condition of the roadways is good, 80% of this pavement is now 15 years old and older. The need for maintenance increases as the City's roadways age and the increase in maintenance is further exacerbated by the increase both in numbers of vehicles and miles traveled. Within the storm water fund, we have'seen increases in bid prices for neighborhood projects and must adjust scope and budget. . Public Works uses ~ computerized pavement management system to plan street maintenance. As noted in the budget, the impact of limited funds has led to an inability to maintain the desired 15 year major maintenance cycle and a backlog of ne~ds has emerged. Considerations: As part of the State's transportation funding formula, each year the City receives roadway maintenance funds through the Virginia Department of Transportation for qualifying roadways. The City's FY2003-O4 Resource Management Plan includes a maintenance revenue estimate of $29,757,159 from the Virginia Department of Transportation. Of this amount, $25,143,315 is included in the General Fund and in CIP 2-284, "Pavement Maintenance Program: for roadway maintenance, and $4,613,844 is included in the Storm Water Utility Fund and in CIP 7-063, "Neighborhood Storm Water Infrastructure Improvements: for maintenance of drainage facilities associated with roadways. Fortunately, the final, FY2003-O4 budget for the Virginia Department of Transportation includes actual maintenance reimbursement revenue to the City of $30,618,260,.an increase of $861,101 above the earlier estimate. Based on the same allocation method currently used, the additional revenue should be allocated as follow: $727,585 to reduce the backlog of roadways resurfacing projects,and $133,516 for storm water neighborhood drainage projects. . Public Information: Public advertisement of the agenda package. . Alternatives: Continue with only current levels of roadway maintenance funding and stormwater funding.. Current levels of funding will result in continued increases in the maintenance backlog and decreases in neighborhood drainage projects as costs increase. . Recommendations: Appropriate $727,585 of additional VDOT maintenance revenue to CIP 2-284, Street Asphalt Resurfacing, and $133,516 to CIP 7-063, Neighborhood Storm Water Infrastructure Improvements. .

'" \, {Ii' ~,§-, CITY OF VIRGINIA BEACH AGENDA ITEM ITEM: Accept and Appropriate $108,630 in HUD Federal Section 8 Housing Choice Voucher Revenue to the Department of Housing and Neighborhood Preservation MEETING DATE: June 22,2004 . Background: The Department of Housing and Neighborhood Preservation (DHNP) receives Federal funds annually to support rental subsidies for persons living in privately owned housing around the city. In addition, special allocations of these funds are provided to the department when an apartment complex ends its rental payment arrangement with HUD and "converts" to a new financing arrangement. These special allocations provide housing voucher funding administered by DHNP and insure that current residents do not become homeless due to increases in rents or other factors. Effective June 1, 2004, Bridle Creek Apartments, located at 1508 Halter Drive, and consisting of 131 units, will be the sixth HUD mortgaged property in the City of Virginia Beach to convert to the Section 8 Housing Choice Voucher Program. When this occurs the existing residents of this property who qualify will be provided rental assistance which they can utilize either at that complex or at an eligible housing unit elsewhere. The requested appropriation amount is the potential maximum amount of subsidy and administrative funding that will be received in the current fiscal year. Funding for fiscal year 2004-2005 is included in the approved budget. . Considerations: HUD is providing all funding, comprised of $828,444 in annual budget authority, to assist the 131 households in Bridle Creek Apartments. Based on the timing of the provision of the assistance, it is estimated that $108,630 will be needed and utilized during the current fiscal year for this purpose. Therefore, this ordinance appropriates that amount. Included in this amount is $69,037 for rental and utility assistance payments, $32,750 for the special fees earned for 100% of the conversion expenses, and $6,843 in administrative fee income. The fee income will be utilized to support staff and all other administrative costs. The City does not have to accept the funding and provide the subsidies, However, this would require that HUD find another agency to do this. Considering that the City provides all such other funding within the City and that by operating the program we utilize controls and guidance that are consistent with City policy, it is recommended that we do accept the funding and provide the subsidies. . Public Information: Public information is provided through the normal City Council agenda process. . Alternatives: Without this appropriation, HUD would be required to designate another administrative entity to provide this assistance to the residents. This could result in significant delays and is considered administratively infeasible and otherwise not desirable. . Recommendations: It is recommended that HUD funding in the amount of $108,630 be accepted and appropriated to the FY 2003-04 operating budget of the Department of Housing and Neighborhood Preservation. .

Ûdt«(~ CITY OF VIRGINIA BEACH AGENDA ITEM ITEM: No Interest Loan to the Plaza Volunteer Rescue Squad MEETING DATE: June 22, 2004 . Background: For over 30 years the City of Virginia Beach has financially assisted the Volunteer Rescue Squads utilizing several different programs. In addition to providing support for continuing expenses such as fuel, insurance and small monthly stipends to offset operating expenses, the City has provided no interest loans for the purchase of ambulances and squad trucks, Under the loan program the rescue squads repay the City on a regular timetable by the amount of the loan and their ability to repay based on fund drive yields. Historically this has been considered established public policy for assisting the volunteer rescue squads. . Considerations: The Plaza Volunteer Rescue Squad is requesting a no interest loan in the amount of $80,000.00 for the purpose of purchasing a replacement ambulance, The increased age and maintenance costs have dictated their decision for the purchase of a replacement ambulance. Plaza Volunteer Rescue Squad would like to repay the loan over a 4 year period in equal installments of $20,000.00 per year beginning July 1, 2005, . Public Information: Public information will be handled through the normal Council Agenda process. . Alternatives: The alternative to the no-interest city loan is the squad's acquisition of a commercial loan at a high interest rate. . Recommendations: EMS recommends approval of this request. .

Box 2128 Virginia Beach, VA 23450 Chief Department of EMS 1917 Arctic Avenue Virginia Beach, VA. 23451 March 10. 2004 The Plaza Volunteer Rescue Squad needs to replace its aging 1993 Intemational4700 Ambulance (1623) with a new Ambulance. This will ensure continuation of quality emergency services with state of the art equipment Ambulance 1623 is the oldest of four ambulances in the Plaza Rescue Squad inventory. Over the past year we have experienced increased mechanical problems including brake, suspension and electrical failures resulting in towing service and unscheduled periods of down time. We attribute this, in part, to the following: . Electrical problems include outdated lighting which creates a larger draw on the electrical system resulting in premature failure of the ambulance batteries Air Conditioning is not adequate to handle the summer temperatures which create scheduling problems during the summer days Maintenance costs are now twice as the other ambulances and is only used 18 percent of the time trying to save unnecessary costs. . Unit 1623 is a 1993 model year chassis with a 170 inch box that is the largest ambulance in the Plaza Volunteer Rescue Squad inventory. The patient compartment is now 1 I years old and in dire need of replacement In addition to the aforementioned outdated lighting, the flooring is also in need of replacement. It is not cost effective to rechasis this unit, as the flooring, electrical systems, air conditioning, and upholstery all need replacement. At its present mileage of 157,957 it has become undependable Plaza Volunteer Rescue Squad has researched and priced ambulances and has decided on another ambulance with an International truck chassis. Plaza Rescue Squad currently has four (4) ambulances with the same chassis type in its inventory and its members are familiar with the driving and handling of this type ambulance chassis. Also with the current International chassis' in the inventory the maintenance facilities utilized by Plaza Rescue are already in place ~r ~ ~71~ i~ The proposed cost to purchase a new International Ambulance is $128,94500, Of this cost Plaza Volunteer Rescue Squad is applying for a RSAF grant fÌom the state office of EMS for a total of $39,000. Plaza Rescue Squad has budgeted $5,000.00 towards the cost plus the sale or trade of the current 1623, about $5,000. Current budget constraints limit Plaza Rescue Squad's ability to fund this new ambulance without the assistance of the City of Virginia Beach Plaza Volunteer Rescue Squad is requesting the city of Virginia Beach to augment the requested state grant and its budgeted funds for the purchase of a new ambulance with a no-interest loan of $80,000,00. We are further requesting to pay back this loan over a period off our (4) years at $20,000.00 per year. jl;lj:'" f !4iI~ " Willia~t Walker Presidéit CITY OF VIRGINIA BEACH AGENDA ITEM ITEM: Appropriation of Wetlands/Dunes Civil Charges MEETING DATE: June 22,2004 . Background: Civil charges are collected from violations of the City's Wetlands and Coastal Primary Sand Dune Ordinances, and the Chesapeake Bay Preservation Area Ordinance. Historically, these funds have been subsequently appropriated for various environmental restoration and habitat enhancement projects in the City, These projects are coordinated and implemented by the Habitat Enhancement Committee that was officially established by City Council in August 1994. . Considerations: As of May, the Wetlands Board of Virginia Beach has imposed civil charges in the amount of $8,500 to various individuals for violating the provisions of the Wetlands and Coastal Primary Sand Dune Ordinances. In addition, Chesapeake Bay Preservation Board has imposed civil charges in the amount of $39,050 to various individuals for violating the provisions of the Chesapeake Bay Preservation Area Ordinance. These funds are used to enhance the City's natural environment through coastal sand dune stabilization and tidal wetlands restoration. The Department of Agriculture requests that a total of $47,550 be appropriated to the WetlandslDunes Restoration Fund to be used by the Habitat Enhancement Committee for various projects. Recent projects include the Lynnhaven Boat Ramp wetlands and dune stabilization, Little Island Park dune stabilization, and the re-establishment of native plants at the Marine Science Museum. Possible future projects include wetlands and shoreline enhancement at the Adam Thoroughgood House. .

L ~'-. - .', ':::.~... ://1 CITY OF VIRGINIA BEACH AGENDA ITEM - - ITEM: Approval of Urban System Construction Administration Agreement MEETING DATE: June 22, 2004 . Background: In September 2003, City Council received a presentation on and took the first step toward the City of Virginia Beach taking over the City's Urban Construction Program from VDOT. At that time a resolution for Project Administration was approved for five (5) projects: Princess Anne Road/Kempsville Road Intersection Improvements (2-048); Witchduck Road Phase I (2-931); Witchduck Road Phase II (2-025); Elbow Road Extended Phase II (2-152); and Indian River Road Phase VII (2-256). The next step will be to assume further responsibility for overall conduct of the project and to directly receive and administer state funding for the above projects, as well as for Laskin Road Phase II (2-165) which was the subject of a previously approved Project Administration Agreement. This program is made possible by recent legislation. Four large cities have thus far been working with VDOT to develop participation agreements for City Council consideration: Virginia Beach, Richmond, Hampton and Newport News. That work has culminated in the attached proposed agreement. Adoption of a resolution to authorize the City Manager to approve the agreement is presented. . Considerations: The proposed agreement and resolution are attached. The agreement spells out the responsibilities of each party. While the City takes on additional responsibilities, it gains several immediate benefits: 1. A modest reduction in VDOT/FHWA oversight. 2. Direct receipt of the state share of urban construction funds. We will received all funds previous allocated to the six (6) projects we are managing, totalling approximately $8.7 million, then will annually receive the state share funding for those projects and future projects added to the Six Year Plan. The City will be able to earn, retain and use the interest on those funds for highway purposes. 3. The City's required 2% match may be provided through in-kind services (salaries of City employees working on the project), rather than cash as is now the case. This will allow reprogramming of over $100,000 annually to construction. 4. Dependent on funding, it is anticipated that project time, from initiation to completion will be materially shorter then if administered by VDOT. Finally, it is brought to Council's attention that VDOT continues to administer the following projects under the old system, as those projects were too far along in the process to shift to the City: Birdneck Road (2-149); Laskin Road, Phase I (2-156); Lynnhaven Parkway Phase IX (2-159); Phase XI (2-167), Volvo/Lynnhaven (2-257); Princess Anne Road, Phase IV (2-305); Nimmo Parkway Phase V (2-121); and Great Neck/London Bridge (2-137), now under construction. . Public Information: The Agreement has been advertised as part of the agenda process. The agreement does not affect the physical design or characteristics of any of the projects. The citizen involvement process will continue for each project. If the City Council endorses the agreement, once it is fully executed, City Council would then be required to appropriate the state funding provided to the City. This will require a public hearing to amend the C.I.P. . Alternatives: Do not approve the Administration Agreement. The City will have less control over project activities and will not receive the fiscal benefits. . Recommendations: Approve the attached Resolution. .

Boynton, Jr. & Antonina S. Boynton - Street Closure (portion of Jersey Avenue) MEETING DATE: June 22, 2004 . Background: An Ordinance upon Application of Cornelius F. Boynton, Jr. & Antonina S. Boynton for the discontinuance, closure and abandonment of a portion of Jersey Avenue beginning at the northern extremity of Jersey Avenue and running a distance of approximately 157.23 feet in a northerly direction to its intersection with Virginia Beach Boulevard. DISTRICT 2 - KEMPSVILLE . Considerations: The applicant intends to purchase the western portion of Jersey Avenue to incorporate it into adjoining property that is currently made up of seven lots. The applicant has agreed to vacate internal lot lines to create one unified parcel. The applicant is requesting the closure in conjunction with the adjacent property owner to the east, Mr. Pile. Council should consider this matter simultaneously with the request from Mr. Pile. This street closure was previously approved by City Council on June 12,2001. At that time, the plan was to combin~ both the Pile property (eastern property) and the Boynton property (western property) into one building lot and to expand the existing auto sales located on the western property. The request is now to close the street and to divide the closed area in half, combining one half with the eastern property and one half with the western property. The Viewers Committee has determined there is no future need for the right-of-way except for drainage purposes. A satisfactory drainage easement must be provided within this area as a condition of the street closure. The area of the street closure will be incorporated into property that currently is developed as an auto sales facility. The closure will result in the vacation of internal lot lines between seven smaller parcels, thereby creating one larger consolidated parcel that is more desirable for future commercial redevelopment consistent with the existing zoning of B-2 Community Business District. The Planning Commission placed this item on the consent agenda because the closure will not result in any public inconvenience. Staff recommended approval. . Recommendations: The Planning Commission passed a motion by a recorded vote of 11-0 to approve this request with the following conditions: 1. The City Attorney's Office will make the final determination regarding ownership of the underlying fee. The City Attorney's Office will review the prior payments made to the City by the applicant to determine if they are in compliance with the "Policy Regarding Purchase of City's Interest in Streets Pursuant to Street Closures," approved by City Council. Copies of the policy are available in the Planning Department. 2. The applicant is required to resubdivide the property and vacate internal lot lines to incorporate the closed area into the adjoining parcels. The plat must be submitted and approved for recordation prior to final street closure approval. 3. A public drainage easement satisfactory to the Department of Public Works shall be provided on the final plat. 4. The applicant is required to verify that no private utilities exist within the right-of- way proposed for closure. Preliminary comments from the utility companies indicate that there are Virginia Natural Gas utilities within the right-of-way proposed for closure. If private utilities do exist, easements satisfactory to the utility company, must be provided. 5. Closure of the right-of-way shall be contingent upon compliance with the above stated conditions within 365 days of approval by City Council. If the conditions noted above are not accomplished and the final plat is not approved within one year of the City Council vote to close the right-of-way this approval shall be considered null and void. 6.

HELEN L. SCOTT Agenda Item # 6 Page 2 The following represent the significant issues identified by the staff concerning this request. Staff's evaluation of the request is largely based on the degree to which these issues are adequately addressed. . Consistency with the Comprehensive Plan recommendations for the area. . Compatibility with the surrounding uses. Comprehensive Plan The Comprehensive Plan Map designates this area as Primary Residential Area. Homes for people with special needs and family care homes (home day care providers) that meet the requirements established in the City Zoning Ordinance are appropriate conditional uses within residential and other defined zoning districts. These are necessary facilities that are appropriately located within residential areas as long as the size, scale and number of these facilities are not so great that they cause undue impacts on the neighborhood. Staff Evaluation Staff recommends approval of this request. Staffs evaluation of this request reveals the proposal, through the submitted materials, adequately addresses each of the 'Major Issues' identified above, The proposal's strengths in addressing the 'Major Issues' are HELEN L. SCOTT Agenda Item # 6 Page 3 (1) The request is in keeping with the recommendations of the Comprehensive Plan for the area. Family Day Care homes are essential within the City to provide for affordable daycare in a home environment setting. Appropriate conditions should minimize any undue impacts within the neighborhood. (2) The request is compatible with the surrounding residential neighborhood. The children will be under constant supervision. When the children are outside, they will be contained within the confines of the rear yard, which is enclosed with a privacy fence. This should minimize the impact on adjacent residential uses. Staff, therefore, recommends approval of this request with the conditions below. Conditions 1. The Family Day Care shall be limited to a total of 10 children during a single 24- hour period. Of the 10 children, no more than five (5) may be under the age of two and one-half years old. 2. There shall be no signs on the site advertising the Family Day Care. 3. Parking for customers and future employees shall be met on the site and not on the public street. 4. The applicant shall obtain all the necessary permits and inspections required by the Departments of Fire Department, Social Services and Planning/Permits and Inspections Division before obtaining a business license. 5. The applicant shall maintain a Family Day Care license with the Commonwealth of Virginia (Social Services).

This is where you come and explain on what your doing to us so that we can either approve or disapprove it and then it would go on to our City CounciL So, if you could just please tell us in a few words what your doing.

Dorothy Wood: Do you have help with this Ms. Scott? Helen Scott: Yes. Dorothy Wood: Someone that you have hired? Helen Scott: One lady lives up stairs and wants to work. I've hired a college student part-time fÌom 9-12, five days a week to come in with the children with the computers and things. Dorothy Wood: Where is upstairs ma'am? Helen Scott: I've got two bedrooms upstairs. It doesn't show it. Dorothy Wood: No ma'am, it doesn't show it there. Helen Scott: But it's two bedrooms and bath. Dorothy Wood: So the downstairs has one bedroom? Helen Scott: A living room, dining room and kitchen. I took the garage and made it a daycare. It was a garage and a half. I had French doors put on. I also had a patio put on the outside for the children with trellis around it so they don't fall off. That's completed. Dorothy Wood: Ma'am, would you please answer any questions from the Commissioners? Ms. Jan? Janice Anderson: Thank you. Ma'am, you already have your daycare license through the State or in the process? Helen Scott: I'm in the process. She said the papers would come in today. I didn't know if they came to you or to me.

Ronald Ripley: We did not go into your property. We rode around it. You said that you converted the garage? That's attached to your property? Is that right? Helen Scott: Yes. Ronald Ripley: So you converted that for the purpose that you're requesting here? Helen Scott: Yes. Ronald Ripley: Is that heated and air conditioned also? Helen Scott: Yes. Ronald Ripley: Could you describe the inside? Helen Scott: It's a garage and half. I really don't know the size. It had to be a lot of work done because of the doors had to be filled in. I had a screen put on the back. Then on the outside I had a patio put out there, which is covered with carpet and the trellis as I said for the children so they don't falloff. I don't plan on keeping large children. I plan to keep smaller children fÌom 0 to 6. Ronald Ripley: Can you describe what you did to the garage? Did you improve the lighting? Did you do the walls over? Helen Scott: It was already done. That is why I bought it. The only thing we had to do was paint it. It has the florescent lights. I didn't have to do anything to it other than the doors and that is why I bought it. Ronald Ripley: Thank you. Dorothy Wood: Would ten children fit into that area Ms. Scott? Helen Scott: I probably will never have ten unless it's an emergency then I've got an extra bedroom down stairs. Item #6 Helen 1. Scott Page 4 Dorothy Wood: Mr. Din. William Din: You were indicating that you were having a college student and one other person under that you hire. Helen Scott: The lady who lives upstairs is going to come and work in the day with the children. William Din: Is she going to live there permanently? Helen Scott: She lives there already. William Din: Already. She's just going to help you? Helen Scott: She needed a place to stay so we decided that I would pay her to help the children so I would always have help. William Din: How many people will be there during the day when you have children that you're caring for? Helen Scott: From 9-12, there will be three. From 12-6, there will just be two. William Din: Okay. You don't intend to have any children overnight or anything? Helen Scott: No. To tired for that. William Din: Okay. Dorothy Wood: Are there any other questions? Jan. Janice Anderson: Just one last one. Are these neighborhood children? Helen Scott: No. I plan on keeping children for the State, Virginia Beach children, not neighborhood children. Dorothy Wood: What do you mean for the State? Helen Scott: The City of Virginia Beach always has children that need a place. I always work with the State of whatever City I live in. That means that the children get more privileges and more time to spend with them. I don't have to debate about who can pay and who can't pay so I just work with the State children. Dorothy Wood: Thank you. Are there any other questions? Sorry Kathy? Item #6 Helen L. Scott Page 5 Kathy Katsias: So are these children placed temporary with you for a certain period of time? I don't quite understand what program this is. Helen Scott: Until they start school. Kathy Katsias: Where are their parents? Helen Scott: They work. They work and they pay a portion and then the State picks up the other portion. Kathy Katsias: Okay. Helen Scott: This is what I did in Nashville. Kathy Katsias: What is this program called? Helen Scott: It's through Social Services. Kathy Katsias: Okay. So you're employed by Social Services. Helen Scott: No. I'm going through Social Services. Dorothy Wood: Are there any other questions? Do I hear a motion? Robert Miller: I'd like to make a motion that we approve Ms. Scott's application. Janice Anderson: I'll second it.

It sounds like something that you've done before in Nashville perhaps but I don't think we've heard about this type of program through Social Services directly. I'm sure there are several of these going on in our City. It's a wonderful thing that you're doing and we really appreciate that. That is quite a responsibility.

DISTRICT 7- PRINCESS ANNE . Considerations: The existing property is part of a tract of land approved in 1998 under the Conditional Use Permit approach for residential development. The 1998 Conditional Use Permit approach yielded a higher than by-right rural density while preserving an area of the site for agricultural or open space uses. The current proposal intends to rezone to B-2 Business a portion of the area set aside for preserved agriculture and open space. The applicant desires to use the rezoned portion of the property for a retail sales establishment, specializing in auto parts, and for a presently undefined future expansion. To develop the site as the applicant desires, the existing conditions on the 1998 approved Conditional Use Permit must be modified. The 1998 Conditional Use Permit for an Altemative Residential Development of three (3) units was granted with the following conditions: Pleasant Ridge Auto Page 2 of 3 1. A suitable legal instrument restricting development of the property to no more than three residential building lots shall be submitted with the final subdivision play, and shall be recorded in the Clerk's Office of the Circuit Court. The content and form of such instrument shall be acceptable to the City Attorney. 2. A one-foot no-ingress/egress easement shall be dedicated along the frontage of the property on Princess Anne Road and run westerly down West Neck Road a minimum of 150', in accordance with the recommendations of Traffic Engineering. 3, A 50' vegetated buffer, as described in the Comprehensive Plan's Rural Residential Guidelines, shall be installed along all residential property lines where they abut an active agricultural operation. The required buffers shall be planted prior to occupancy of the residential units. Two of the conditions must be modified in order for the proposed development to proceed. Condition 1 must be modified to permit the use of a portion of the residual property for the proposed use. Condition 2 requires a no-ingress/egress easement be dedicated along the frontage of the site. In order for the applicant's proposal to occur, this condition must also be modified to eliminate the requirement. Staff's research indicates that the required no-ingress/egress easement has currently been platted only along West Neck Road with the creation of two lots in accordance with the 1998 Use Permit. The applicant, therefore, is requesting Modification of the 1998 Conditional Use Permit through removal of the three-acre area requested for rezoning from the area encumbered by the 1998 Use Permit. Removal of the three-acre area effectively eliminates the conditions from applying to the proposed development parcel. With the removal of the three (3) acres requested for rezoning from the 1998 Use Permit area, there will remain sufficient acreage to support the density of three (3) dwelling units as approved with the 1998 use permit.

The 1998 Conditional Use Permit approach yielded a higher than by-right rural density while preserving an area of the site for agricultural or open space uses. The current proposal intends to rezone to B-2 Business a portion of the area set aside for preserved agriculture and open space. The applicant desires to use the rezoned portion of the property for a retail sales establishment, specializing in auto parts, and for a presently undefined future expansion. To develop the site as the applicant desires, the existing conditions on the 1998 approved Conditional Use Permit must be addressed in some manner. The 1998 Conditional Use Permit for an Alternative Residential Development of three (3) units was granted with the following conditions: 1. A suitable legal instrument restricting development of the property to no more than three residential building lots shall be submitted with the final subdivision play, and shall be recorded in the Clerk's Office of the Circuit Court. The content and form of such instrument shall be acceptable to the City Attorney. 2. A one-foot no-ingress/egress easement shall be dedicated along the frontage of the property on Princess Anne Road and run westerly down West Neck Road a minimum of 150', in accordance with the recommendations of Traffic Engineering. 3. A 50' vegetated buffer, as described in the Comprehensive Plan's Rural Residential Guidelines, shall be installed along all residential property lines where they abut an active agricultural operation. The required buffers shall be planted prior to occupancy of the residential units. Two of the conditions must be modified in order for the proposed development to proceed. Condition 1 must be modified to permit the use of a portion of the residual property for the proposed use.. Condition 2 requires a no-ingress/egress easement be dedicated along the frontage of the site. In order for the applicant's proposal to occur, this condition must also be modified to eliminate the requirement. Staff's research indicates that the required no- ingress/egress easement has currently been platted only along West Neck Road with the creation of two lots in accordance with the 1998 Use Permit. The applicant, therefore, is requesting Modification of the 1998 Conditional Use Permit through removal of the three-acre area requested for rezoning from the area encumbered by the 1998 Use Permit. Removal of the three-acre area effectively eliminates the conditions from applying to the proposed development parcel. The Rural Preservation Plan portion of the Comprehensive Plan specifically identifies commercial nodes like Back Bay and Creeds as small areas that serve in a limited fashion the commercial needs of a rather large geographic area. An important factor in the evaluation of this development proposal, however, is that a small area of B-2 zoning already exists to the north of the subject site at the intersection of Princess Anne Road and Pleasant Ridge Road. The applicant currently uses this B-2 zoned site for the auto parts business. It is Staff's understanding from the narrative submitted with the application that the applicant's business has outgrown the existing site and that the applicant cannot expand at the existing location. There exists, therefore, an existing precedent for commercial use within this general area. Staff concludes that locating commercial use at the West Neck Road intersection is a reasonable addition to the existing B-2 at the Pleasant Ridge intersection. Further, it is Staff's opinion that the West Neck Road intersection, due to it being the meeting of two primary routes into and out of the Rural Area, is the more likely candidate for a commercial service node. Details regarding the 'future expansion' shown on the proffered plan have not been provided. However, the proffers submitted with the change of zoning request restrict the development to the area defined on the proffered plan as "2-ST -RETAIL (8,000 SO. FT,)." If the applicant ever pursues the future expansion, it will require additional review by the Planning Commission and approval by the City Council as a Modification of Proffers. Of greater concern is the lack of specificity in the proffers regarding the uses to which the B-2 zoned area may be put. While the site plan and the building elevation are designed for the applicant's business, the proffers do not restrict the uses in any way. Thus, if desired, the applicant could use the building for any use allowed in the B-2 Community Business District. Staff does not believe that there would be any immediate eventuality of this occurring. Of more concern is the potential for other B-2 uses to be located in the area identified as 'future expansion; however, as noted above, such expansion cannot occur without a Modification to the Proffers of this requested rezoning should it be granted. With the removal of the three (3) acres requested for rezoning from the 1998 Use Permit area, there will remain sufficient acreage to support the density of three (3) dwelling units as approved with the 1998 use permit. That acreage will remain restricted from development per the conditions of the use permit. Staff recommended approval. There was opposition to the request. .

Summary of Proposa The existing property is part of a tract of land approved in 1998 under the Conditional Use Permit approach for residential development. The 1998 Conditional Use Permit approach yielded a higher than by-right rural density while preserving an area of the site for agricultural or open space uses. The current proposal intends to rezone to B-2 Business a portion of the area set aside for preserved agriculture and open space. The applicant desires to use the rezoned portion of the property for a retail sales establishment, specializing in auto parts, and for a presently undefined future expansion. To develop the site as the applicant desires, the existing conditions on the 1998 approved Conditional Use Permit must be addressed in some manner. The 1998 PLEASANT RIDGE AUTO PARTS, INC. Agenda Items # 9 & # 10 Page 2 Conditional Use Permit for an Alternative Residential Development of three (3) units was granted with the following conditions: 1. A suitable legal instrument restricting development of the property to no more than three residential building lots shall be submitted with the final subdivision play, and shall be recorded in the Clerk's Office of the Circuit Court, The content and form of such instrument shall be acceptable to the City Attorney. 2. A one-foot no-ingress/egress easement shall be dedicated along the frontage of the property on Princess Anne Road and run westerly down West Neck Road a minimum of 150', in accordance with the recommendations of Traffic Engineering. 3. A 50' vegetated buffer, as described in the Comprehensive Plan's Rural Residential Guidelines, shall be installed along all residential property lines where they abut an active agricultural operation. The required buffers shall be planted prior to occupancy of the residential units. Two of the conditions must be modified in order for the proposed development to proceed. Condition 1 must be modified to permit the use of a portion of the residual property for the proposed use. The document specified in Condition 1 was recorded at Deed Book 4068, Page 502. The final clause of the recorded restrictions notes "Nothing herein shall restrict any interested party from applying to the Virginia Beach City Council for a variance of, or amendment to, this condition in the future." The applicant has applied to amend the condition, Condition 2 of the 1998 Use Permit requires a no-ingress/egress easement be dedicated along the frontage of the site. In order for the applicant's proposal to occur, this condition must also be modified to eliminate the requirement. Staff's research indicates that the required no-ingress/egress easement has currently been platted only along West Neck Road with the creation of two lots in accordance with the 1998 Use Permit. The applicant, therefore, is requesting Modification of the 1998 Conditional Use Permit through removal of the three-acre area requested for rezoning from the area encumbered by the 1998 Use Permit. Removal of the three-acre area effectively eliminates the conditions from applying to the proposed development parcel. PLEASANT RIDGE AUTOPARTS, INC. Agenda Items # 9 & # 10 Page 3 The following represent the significant issues identified by the staff concerning this request. Staff's evaluation of the request is largely based on the degree to which these issues are adequately addressed. . Consistency with the recommendations of the Comprehensive Plan for the Rural Area concerning the location of non-residential uses. . Ambiguity regarding future expansion as shown on the site plan. . Intent of 1998 use permit for preservation of this area as open space / agricultural residual as part of the residential lots. Comprehensive Plan The Comprehensive Plan recognizes this property to be part of the Rural Service Area. The rural land use policies have not changed much over time and are important for our rural landscape. Future development within the Rural Service Area must adhere to the Comprehensive Plan's adopted rural planning principles and economic strategies to retain its character and vitality. The Comprehensive Plan identifies a Rural Preservation Plan with five objectives: 1. Preserve and promote the opportunity for continued agricultural production. 2. Recognize the rural character and the need to preserve its open space and scenic beauty. Rural character also translates into a quieter, less hectic and more independent way of life; one removed from the congestion, density and fast paced activities of urban life. The growth that occurs does so without disrupting the lifestyles of those who have chosen to live here and without forcing the need to bring in urban services. 3. Protect and maintain environmental resources so that they remain for future generations. 4. Provide reasonable rural development opportunities. 5. Eliminate the need for urban infrastructure. PLEASANT RIDGE AUTO PARTS, INC. Agenda Items # 9 & #10 Page 4 In order to achieve these objectives the Agricultural ReseNe Program and Rural Development Guidelines were included as part of an overall program to stabilize and reinforce the rural way of life. Guides to non-residential rural development include: Protect rural character and existing scenic views. Franchise retail, office parks or shopping centers are not encouraged. Create non- residential development at key crossroads to encourage community interaction of people, not vehicles. Commercial retail development should be located in existing defined rural commercial centers for supporting the local rural community in lieu of strip shopping center development. . . . . Proffers The following are proffers submitted by the applicant as part of a Conditional Zoning Agreement (CZA). The applicant, consistent with Section 107(h) of the City Zoning Ordinance, has voluntarily submitted these proffers in an attempt to "offset identified problems to the extent that the proposed rezoning is acceptable," (§107(h)(1). Should this application be approved, the proffers will be recorded at the Circuit Court and seNe as conditions restricting the use of the property as proposed with this change of zoning. PROFFER # 1 PROFFER # 2 When the property is developed, it shall be developed substantially as shown on the exhibit entitled "Preliminary Subdivision Plat of Part of the Property of Philip W.

Further conditions may be required by the Grantee during detailed Site Plan review and administration of applicable City codes by all cognizant City agencies and departments to meet all applicable City code requirements. Staff Evaluation of The above proffers are acceptable. Proffers: City Attorney's The City Attorney's Office has reviewed the proffer PLEASANT RIDGE AUTO PARTS. INC. Agenda Items # 9 &# 10 Page 6 Office: agreement dated March 23, 2004, and found it to be legally sufficient and in acceptable legal form. Staff's evaluation of this request reveals the proposal, through the submitted materials and the proffers, adequately addresses each of the 'Major Issues' identified above. (1) The intersection of Princess Anne Road and West Neck Road is not specifically mentioned by the Comprehensive Plan as a potential node for retail and other non-residential service uses. The Rural Preservation Plan portion of the Comprehensive Plan specifically identifies commercial nodes like Back Bay and Creeds as small areas that serve in a limited fashion the commercial needs of a rather large geographic area. An important factor in the evaluation of this development proposal, however, is that a small area of B-2 zoning already exists to the north of the subject site at the intersection of Princess Anne Road and Pleasant Ridge Road. The applicant currently uses this B-2 zoned site for the auto parts business. It is Staff's understanding from the narrative submitted with the application that the applicant's business has outgrown the existing site and that the applicant cannot expand at the existing location. There exists, therefore, an existing precedent for commercial use within this general area. Staff concludes that locating commercial use at the West Neck Road intersection is a reasonable addition to the existing B-2 at the Pleasant Ridge intersection. Further, it is Staff's opinion that the West Neck Road intersection, due to it being the meeting of two primary routes into and out of the Rural Area, is the more likely candidate for a commercial service node. (2) Details regarding the 'future expansion' shown on the proffered plan have not been provided. However, the proffers submitted with the change of zoning request restrict the development to the area defined on the proffered plan as "2- ST-RETAIL (8,000 SQ. FT,)." If the applicant ever pursues the future expansion, it will require additional review by the Planning Commission and approval by the City Council as a Modification of Proffers. Of greater concern is the lack of specificity in the proffers regarding the uses to which the B-2 zoned area may be put. While the site plan and the building elevation are designed for the applicant's business, the proffers do not restrict the uses in any way. Thus, if desired, the applicant could use the building for any use allowed in the B-2 Community PLEASANT RIDGE AUTO PARTS,INC. Agenda Items # 9 & # 10 Page 7 Business District. Staff does not believe that there would be any immediate eventuality of this occurring. Of more concern is the potential for other B-2 uses to be located in the area identified as 'future expansion; however, as noted above, such expansion cannot occur without a Modification to the Proffers of this requested rezoning should it be granted. (3) With the removal of the three (3) acres requested for rezoning from the 1998 Use Permit area, there will remain sufficient acreage to support the density of three (3) dwelling units as approved with the 1998 use permit. That acreage will remain restricted from development per the conditions of the use permit. Staff, therefore, recommends approval of the Change, of Zoning from AG-2 an AG-1 Agricultural Districts to B-2 Community Business as proffered and approval of the request for Modification of Conditions through elimination of the three (3) acre B-2 zoning site from the area of the Conditional Use Permit approved on November 24, 1998. 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 apolicable CitV Codes. PLEASANT RIDGE AUTO PARTS. INC. Agenda Items # 9 & # 10 Page 8 Item #9 & 10 Pleasant Ridge Auto Parts, lnc, Page 3 thing. I certainly respect the fact that others may have disagreement about that. The site was the subject, as you all know of aU se Permit a number of years ago that involved residential and the remainder that remained as open space. But that application there was extra land above and beyond that was needed to meet the requirements of Section 405. And, this land that we are proposing to develop here will not cause that application to have been granted without enough land to meet the requirements of Section 405 without the amount of soils needed to meet Section 405. So, there is no gift having been given to the prior application by this. If this had not been a part of it, it still would have met the requirements of Section 405 in terms of the acreage and in terms of the soils. Now, this site will have a complete soil septic system that will work, function and will meet of today's standards. So, it will definitely from an environmental standpoint an improvement. As you know, you have to have an acre ofland to be able to do a septic system today. I would also not and I think one of the other speakers in favor is going to note that on the opposite corridor of West Neck and Princess Anne there used to be a store that sold gasoline so the idea that this is introducing commercial to an intersection where it has never existed is not an accurate assessment. The staff has recommended in favor of this. It's within a stone throw of their existing facility and we believe that the staff has got it absolute correct and that it's an application, or two applications that should be approved. I know there are three other speakers in favor so I'll stop at this point. I'll be happy to answer any questions. Dorothy Wood: Eddie, would you please answer any questions? Eddie Bourdon: I'll be happy too. Dorothy Wood: Mr. Waller, thank you. John Waller: I don't have a problem with the rezoning. I've got a big problem with the design that he built. Eddie Bourdon: I heard thaÙhis morning John. John Waller: It's a metal building at a major intersection at Princess Anne Road. Everyday it's becoming more and more traffic and more and more people coming down. It won't be long before it's a four-lane road with commercial buildings on all sides. You're going to have a big, ugly metal building put on that corner. That is what I'm opposed too. '-- Eddie Bourdon: As I mentioned John, the reason why people can disagree and I would have to say that I respect your opinion however, under our Comprehensive Land Use Plan and under all of the plans that I know of in terms ofroadway improvements, I don't know how many of us are going to be here when what you envision occurring occurs. Four-lane West Neck Road and four-lane Princess Anne Road with our extreme restrictions on and I don't say extreme in a negative way but our restrictions on what is to happen in our rural south, which I think the vast, vast majority of the people who live Item #9 & 10 Pleasant Ridge Auto Parts, Inc, Page 2 Pleasant Ridge and Princess Anne Road. You can actually see it right here, along this aerial that subject site. The parcel that they operate their business on and they actually own. I have a survey of it. You heard this morning and some reference may have been made to something of along the line of half an acre. It is actually more along the lines of about 12,000 square feet. I'll pass the survey around. I do need to get it back because I did not have the opportunity to make copies of it. That building has about 7 or 8 parking spaces. And that is it. There is no room to expand and they have a need to expand their business. They did in fact attempt to make efforts to acquire additional land adjacent to their parcel, but that is not property on the market for sale. It is certainly not a criticism of the people who own the property at all. That is a fact. That is reality. Therefore, they have no ability whatsoever to expand their business. Their business under all of our current site plan ordinance requirements, etc., you can't meet any ofthe guidelines by tearing down what's there and trying to build something on it. It's just not physically possible. They got more building, more space on that site than the site supports by any stretch of the imagination. And, you also have the septic issue. We don't have sewer in this part of the world and will not have sewer down in this part of the world. Weare not advocating sewer in this part ofthe world. So, we have a situation where in order to succeed and to continue to succeed and to serve the community they need the ability. The business has succeeded and they need to go expand that business. One of the reasons why they have been so successful among many is because they are supporters of the community in which they reside and do business. They donate money to community charities and community funds. I've got a long list here and I'll hit a few of them. The Heidy Temple, Not Silent Ruritan Club, Creeds Elementary PT A, Currituck County Relay for Life, Ducks Unlimited, Virginia Beach Rescue Squad, Knots Island Elementary PTA, Knots Island Beach Festival, Knots Island Wildlife Festival, Knots Island Voluntary Fire Department, Back Bay Christian Academy, Kellam High School Booster Club, St. John Apostle Catholic Church and Catholic School, Angel Fund, Multiple Sclerosis Society, Muscular Dystrophy, Creeds Ruritan, Test Before Livestock, Auction, Virginia Beach For Livestock Auction, Virginia Beach Booster Club and Creeds Athletic Association. The proposal here is to place a business that is established in the community that supports the community and supports agriculture at the major intersection ofthree that I count, in the southern part of the City. I think Indian River and Princess Anne and West Neck. And, Indian River and West Neck. I think further down there are some other major intersections. Those are it. I think this is an excellent location for this business. They've designed the business. They designed the structure that fits in with the character of the area. The building has a metal foundation. It's a metal building but it has brick face around the bottom. It has a raising metal bronze roof, a sandstone color on the exterior that is not brick. There is an existing barn, the West Neck Equestrian Center right down the street. It's about three times the size. It's exactly the same type of material, a metal barn. There are lots of them out there. They got a very attractive plan. One that staff has not indicated any objection to in terms of appearance and in terms of it fitting in with what's in that rural setting. This is not Town Center. This is not a lot of other areas of the City. This is the rural area. It's an area that is not the same as where most of us live. It is where two of your members do live. We think the building and it's appearance do very much fit in with the character of the area. I mean that's a subjective Item #9 & 10 Pleasant Ridge Auto Parts, Inc.

There is also a Modification of Conditions for a Conditional Use Permit approved by City Council on November 24, 1998 on property located on the northwest corner of Princess Anne Road and West Neck Road, District 7, Princess Anne. DorothyWood: Yes sir. ~ Eddie Bourdon: Thank you Madame Chair. Eddie Bourdon, a Virginia Beach attorney representing the applicant. I have copies of three letters that I'm going to pass out to each of you. I have two copies of a petition and I'll try to make copies for everyone. It is my privilege to represent the Simpson Family on this application this aftemoon. I appreciate your patient on the last application. The application has been read and involves, first of all a change in zoning district classification on this 3-acre parcel located at West Neck and Princess Anne Road to B-2 along with a modification of conditions on the Use Permit that was approved on the large parcel back in November 1998. The letters that I'm passing out to you are letters of support from three members of the community, Mr. Frank Williams, Mr. Bonnie Bright and Mr. Dawson Taylor. I've also provided you all with a petition which has a total of 555 signatures, it's a petition of support with 555 signatures on it, which I'll mention a little bit later. It's probably the largest petition in terms of the number of signers, support or oppose that I've ever seen and that's in support. That tells you, I think a great deal about the applicants in this case. The Simpsons have been family farmers in the Pungo/Back Bay area for over a century. There family has run this family owned business, which is in large measure an agricultural support business that provides all types of parts, equipment and expertise for repairing farm equipment, tractors, trucks, etc. They are pillars of the community and that is noted, I think by anyone who will take a few minutes to look at the petition and the people who have signed that petition. You'll notice names that everyone knows, Vaughan, Williams, Simmons, Frost, Dean Davis, Brickhouse, Morris, Bright, Etheridge, Briggs, Murden, Henley, Kellam, Brock, Freeman, right on down the line. So, who's who of the people who live in the southern part of the City. Our agricultural industry in the southern part of the City.

Agenda Items # 9 & # 10 Page 9 Item #9 & 10 Pleasant Ridge Auto Parts, Inc. Page 4 there don't want to see those changes. I don't know that we are going to see anytime in the foreseeable future any significant amount of commercial development in this area or any widening to four lanes of these two roads. Now, some improvements of those roads will be made. I think some of them are very much needed. Wider shoulders and things of that nature but I don't know of any plans anywhere in the foreseeable future to do four lanes of either of those roads. We're certainly not going to have water and sewer down there, public infrastructure down there. And, I think it will retain its rural character and I do believe that this building is one that has been designed in keeping with rural character. There are churches down there that are similar type of buildings as well as equestrian centers. One of the nicest looking properties in the rural part of the City, which is actually on the north side of the blue-line, is Mr. Hanson's property. I think he's got a very nice looking barn that I believe is a similar type of appearance. If it was somewhere else in the City I would absolutely agree with you but I don't know if I can agree with you. This is my opinion and we're all entitled to our opinions. It doesn't make one right or one wrong. We believe that this is in keeping with the character of that part of the City. We haven't heard prior to this morning at least from the staff and that is no criticism of the staff about concerns about the design of this building. In another application and we'll be talking about that from staff perspective but I haven't heard it on this one. John Waller: Courthouse Marketplaèe, which we saw pictures of earlier. They'vedone a beautiful job. They sort of set the tone or raising the bar. They're making the whole Princess Anne Road nice and a more pleasant place to drive. It's a lot of residential, well mostly residential there now but more and more people will be coming down here and everybody wants to put up a metal building you can imagine what it is going to look like. I just think we need to raise the bar for Princess Anne Road. Eddie Bourdon: I couldn't agree with you more as far as the Courthouse Marketplace is concerned, which is right here in the Courthouse Center where we are located. In an area that is under our Comprehensive Plan and the Princess Anne area that will be high end residential at one unit per acre. But, again this part of the City, our Comprehensive Plan is pretty clear is to remain an agricultural and rural area. We've got development going about 25-30 houses a year in this part of the City and I think it is going to remain that way. So, I don't have a crystal ball as to what this part of the City is going to look like in 50 years or even in 10 years. I think it will look a whole lot like it does today intent. I don't know Courthouse Marketplace in this section of the City is the same that is down below Pungo. We're not trying to build anything that is objectionable or low end, if you will. I think to put something like Courthouse Marketplace down here would be completely out of character. I think would not blend in or fit in. Again, that's a decision that I guess City Council will have to make. Dorothy Wood: Thanks Eddie. Ed, will you keep the time manually since the computer is down? Ed Weeden: He had plenty of time. Item #9 & 10 Pleasant Ridge Auto Parts, Inc. Page 5 Dorothy Wood: Ed told me that we're going to have to vote manually. Our computer is down so we can't vote electronically this afternoon. We have some speakers? Joseph Strange: Speaking in support, the first speak is Al Henley. Al Henley: Hi. Ladies and gentlemen of the Planning Commission, thank you for allowing me to be here today and to speak to you and a good afternoon to you. My name is Al Henley and I'm a life long resident of the Back Bay/Pungo area. I come here before you in total support of this application. It is a facility that has served our community for 25 years. It's mostly towards the agriculture community as well as residents. I've been there quite fÌequently myself on maintenance of my vehicles. There are other facilities that are located north of us but I prefer not to fÌequent those facilities because my personal opinion is they don't carry and stock the materials that is halfway as good as the NAP A product. When we do purchase material, we do like to purchase the best. As for the facility, I think the facility has done a good job on the planning of it. The colors of it are acceptable. We have a lot of metal barns in Pungo, Blackwater and Back Bay. I think they've done a good job with the layout of the parking facility and the landscaping. And, as Mr. Bourdon said earlier there was and I do remember the gas station that was on the opposite comer as well as the current location that they maintain today. It was also a grocery store and they also served gas. So, it's not to time to be repetitive. I am support of that and 1 would respectfully request ITom each one of you to be supportive. Thank you very much. Dorothy Wood: Thank you Mr. Henley. Ronald Ripley: I got a question. How long ago was the property used as a grocery store? Do you recall? Al Henley: Well, I would say probably about 30 years ago. The facility closed. It became a rental property. They had an apartment above but I remember as a young gentleman myself ITequenting it and shopping there with my parents as well as purchasing gas. Ronald Ripley: Okay. Thank you. Dorothy Wood: Thank you. Al Henley: Thank you. Joseph Strange: Also speaking in support is Rodney Foster. ~ Rodney Foster: Good afternoon. I'm Rodney Foster and I live at 2108 Indian Creek Road in Chesapeake. I'm here in support of this application. 1 farm for a living in Virginia Beach and Currituck and in Chesapeake. We use NAPA quite regularly to get our after market parts for our farm equipment. Most of you probably know that there are no longer any agricultural tractor equipment dealers that service farm equipment in Item #9 & 10 Pleasant Ridge Auto Parts, Inc. Page 6 Virginia Beach or in Chesapeake. We now either have to go to Edenton, Elizabeth City of Suffolk to look for these kinds of parts. Agriculture certainly needs this type of business to sustain us. The new building, the architect design is certainly pleasing to the eye. I just notice a movement or two about the comment about the brick and the metal. I believe if you were to travel around Virginia and look at the John Deere dealerships that are now being built, the agriculture supplies, the tractor supplies, they all use metal buildings in the rural area to accommodate the rural character. This is certainly to me, looks better than a whole brick building or a cinder block building in the country like that. It does fit that character. As some of you know, eight years ago I was on the Chesapeake Planning Commission and I retired a year ago. So, we always looked at one thing and in our determination when it was opposition was that the advantage to this might weigh any impact because of the needs of the community. So, I would urge you to support this business. I do know that the existing business is too small. It can't supply and keep the parts that we need. There is no more space available. And, the business has grown and it has become dangerous for very little bit of parking sitting on the corner curb like it is. Again, I would appreciate it if you would support it. It is good for our community and it is good for the City of Virginia Beach. Thank you. Dorothy Wood: Mr. Foster, we're glad to have you here. We do remember you being on the Chesapeake Planning Commission and the fine job that you did. Our Planning Commission has enjoyed working with your Planning Commission and we're going to get that expressway through and work together. Thank you very much for coming. Rodney Foster: I already had a few comments for that and I hope it happens too. Dorothy Wood: Thank you for coming sir. Joseph Strange: Also speaking in support is Marvin Rollins. ~ Marvin Rollins: Madame Chairman and members of the Planning Commission, my name is Marvin Rollins. I live at 1521 Mill Landing Road and that's in Back Bay. I've been there my entire life on the same little farm that I still own today. I support this application in many ways. One is the applicant not only through this application improves the service for himself. He improves the service for the entire community that depends on this applicant. The applicant is certainly like myself. He didn't just come into town, fall off the meat wagon and decided that he was going to open up a business. He's the third generation that has been in this type of business. His father served me. His grandfather served my father. And, Steve serves me through business. And just like the other speakers, I will repeat this because sometimes Mr. Bourdon is a representative. He comes up and he's a representative doing ajob but I am a person who lives there and uses the services that are provided as well as many other people. And, I think when a person has a business, he supports his community and it is a plus for the entire community and not just for one individual. That is a no brainer as far as a vote. If I were in your shoes I would feel like that I voted against an entire community if! voted against this application. I really ever get up here and say anything. In this case, I could not sit by and Item #9 & 10 Pleasant Ridge Auto Parts, Inc. Page 7 not say how I felt. I know there are other people that certainly do not feel the same way as I do. The business community, which I am in business, I am not a farmer. I own a construction business and when I need a part for a Mack truck, I'm able to get it fÌom Mr. Simpson. I don't have to go everywhere but you can't do it in the area next to us. And, one other thing and there was and as Mr. Henley said and Mr. Bourdon brought us, there was a pure oil station directly across fÌom that piece of property many years ago, which my father and I went in there many, many times. I just appreciate your time to say thank you all for letting me talk and I certainly do hope that you all will see fit to put this application through as a benefit for the entire community. Dorothy Wood: Thank you Mr. Rollins. I know that you're very proud of your family with generations in Virginia Beach. Thank you. Marvin Rollins: Yes we are. Joseph Strange: Okay. Speaking in opposition is Dr. Carmen Maldonaldo. Dorothy Wood: Welcome Dr. Carmen Maldonaldo: My name is Dr. Maldonaldo. I stay in the United States Navy for 23 years, six of them in the war in Saudi Arabia. I was at the time under a lot of stress so when I came back I said I need to live in a place, which is peaceful, rural but at the same time close to the City, which is the area that I bought. I live six houses from the proposed business. I have a gorgeous house that anybody can call a mansion. It's a mansion to me. It's the type of house that is beautiful. It's gorgeous. It's peaceful. It's quiet. I live there because I was looking for those characteristics in a place where I can live. The Navy could send me back anywhere I wanted to live but I chose Virginia Beach because I love this place. I am opposed because I feel that quietness and tranquility that I have is going to change. This place is quite too close to my house. It is just like 5 or 6 houses fÌom my house. Like he said, it's just ugly houses or whatever he thinks they are but they are not. All the residential there are gorgeous. They are beautiful houses. The building itself doesn't look quite nice. It doesn't. I would not like to have it there. No, I wouldn't. I would like to keep it peaceful for me. Thank you. Dorothy Wood: Thank you. Would you please show us ma'am? Would you please show us where you live and then answer Ms. Katsias' question? Carmen Maldonaldo: It's the last house. Dorothy Wood: You can use the pointer if you could? Carmen Maldonaldo: I live right in there. One, two, three, the last house. Right here you have woods in the back of my house. =- Dorothy Wood: Thank you Dr. Would you please answer Ms. Katsias' question? Item #9 & 10 Pleasant Ridge Auto Parts, Inc. Page 8 Kathy Katsias: No. That's fine. Joseph Strange: Okay. Next we have Jerry Lang. Dorothy Wood: Welcome Mr. Lang. Jerry Lang: Thank you. Madame Chairman, members, my name is Jerry Lang and I live directly across the street fÌom there, across :from West Neck and Princess Anne. I've lived there since 1986. From 1990-2000, the average new homes that were constructed increase approximately 30 per year and as of January 2001 there were approximately 1,800 existing dwelling units in the Pungo/Black Water planning area. This is an increase of almost 300 units since 1990, which equates to about 20 percent increase as per the average throughout Virginia Beach is only 14 percent increase. At this rate, 20 percent it wouldn't be long until the Pungo/Blackwater area would be no then an abundance of significant important and natural resources that is being preserved through your award winning plan. I can visualize as your honorable Mr. Waller had mentioned if this facility is erected at this intersection, which is an extremely busy intersection it will not be long before there will be other across the street. The gas station or even down the street where another mall will be put up in the near future. As also described in your Comprehensive Plan that your guidelines are in non- residential rural development, which includes scenic views. Well my view, straight across the street of another commercial building is not a scenic view. Also, fÌanchise retail stores are not encouraged yet your staff evaluation is to recommend approval of changing this zone :from AG-l, AG-2 to a B-2 Community Business. Also, one of your statements is to create non-residential development at key crossroads. Well, again as Mr. Waller had mentioned, this intersection being that there are only three major intersections coming out of Knotts Island that is Pungo Ferry, West Neck and Indian River. Well, living right across the street fÌom it, West Neck is an extremely busy out take. Anyways, as being a resident since 1986 therefore, I'm opposed to granting the changes. Dorothy Wood: Thank you sir. You are out of time. I appreciate you coming. As we stated before each person has three minutes unless your representing a large group but then we will give you more time. That's the same for people on both sides have three minutes. Joseph Strange: Next we have Amy Lang. Dorothy Wood: Welcome Ms. Lang. Thank you for coming. ~ Amy Lang. Afternoon everyone. How are you? My name is Amy Lang. I live at 1476 Princess Anne Road. My husband just spoke previously. We live right at the intersection of West Neck and Princess Arme Road on the east side. I am very much opposed to the change ofthis Conditional Use Permit. Traffic will increase greatly. Public Work's comments on page 10 of your agenda Items #9 & 10 state the calculations for a 8,000 square foot auto parts store would increase the generated traffic for that property Item #9 & 10 Pleasant Ridge Auto Parts, Inc. Page 9 approximately about 10 fold. And the undefined future expansion of the B-2 use of approximately the same size will only further congest that area. If a precedence is set, which Mr. Waller seems to be in agreement with that will develop that commercial area or redevelop, I guess from very old businesses that were there. It doesn't go with our Comprehensive Plan that does not encourage retail centers. The current property that the NAP A owns is zoned for business. There's a difference between needs and wants. If they need to expand their business they can surely find an off sight warehouse where they can store additional parts for their facility and they can drop them into that area for some pick up just because they want to expand their business does not mean that I should give up my rights in that rural area to have the tranquility of that area. I'm concerned about the stormwater run off. An 8,000 square foot building and parking plus additional undefined area of equal size. In our area of the rural part of the city means ditches. And, it will mean deep ditches. Deep ditches with a large highly traffic intersection only adds to the problems in that area. We have enough people going into the ditch now that are people braking too late to go to West Neck Road and someone veers off trying to miss him. We've had a dump truck turnover in our front yard and lose their whole load. People are often swerving onto our property to avoid them. Ed Weeden: You're running out of time Amy Lang: So, I definitely oppose this application. Dorothy Wood: Thank you Ms. Lang. We appreciate you coming. Joseph Strange: Our next speaker is Jackie Hembree. Dorothy Wood: Welcome Mr. Hembree. Jackie Hembree: Jackie Hembree. I live in Virginia Beach. I've been here for 42 years. I've been at my present location for 26 years. I've seen the traffic. I've seen probably 20-30 fold on Princess Anne Rod since I've been here. When I first moved to where I was at I could go out my road, go to work and not see another car probably until I got to work. By the time I left, right now I have to go out and wait and wait and wait to get on Princess Anne. My concern is the traffic and also the snowball effect of putting more business down in our area. It will be like a snowball effect. It will continue. First thing you know we'll have a bar on one corner, a service station on the other comer. It will run the life that we all love and know. That is my big concem right now. Dorothy Wood: Where do you live sir? Do you live on West Neck? Jackie Hembree: No ma'am. I live on Jarvis Road. Dorothy Wood: Thank you sir. Thank you for coming. ~ JackieHembree: We thank you. Item #9 & 10 Pleasant Ridge Auto Parts, Inc. Page 10 Joseph Strange: Our next speaker in opposition is Dan Franken. Dorothy Wood: Welcome Mr. Franken. Dan Franken: Good afternoon Madame Chairperson and Commission members. I assume that I'll be permitted ten minutes as the representative for the folks in opposition. Dorothy Wood: I'll have to check because they have all spoken. Dan Franken: That is what I agreed to with staff ahead of time. Dorothy Wood: I think was if you were going to represent all of these people. I don't know. Dan Franken: It said representative. It didn't say a lawyer. Dorothy Wood: Okay sir. Mr. Scott? Mr. Macali? Guidance please? Robert Scott: It's your discretion. I don't know who's represented who's already spoken. Dorothy Wood: Just go on sir. - Dan Franken: Thank you very much. Just a bit of background about myself. Like I said, I'm not a lawyer and that is probably evident. I have 40 years of experience in national security. I'm a retired Naval officer and was a senior executive with the government and I'm recognized as a strategic planner. As a matter of fact, most of my comments I say, I hope will center around this excellent strategic plan that's five months old that I believe most ofthe issues associated with this request violate or are not construed within various fashions. Mr. Bourdon gave an excellent introduction for Steve Simpson. I think Steve Simpson ought to have a new business somewhere but not there. And, I also think Steve Simpson is a wonderful gentleman and I consider him a mend of mine. I just don't think we ought to have like you heard from these other people a small store that's currently on a well, established location. It has been there for years, be moved less than a half mile where it's not in the vicinity of three or four over established residences and be plump smack dabbed in the middle of one of the worse intersections around town and near some very good homes. And, I want to comment about that. If you want to know what kind of environment we seek to have in the country, it's all spelled out in the strategic Comprehensive Plan. It also lays out pretty strict guidance for non-increasing infÌastructure requirements, not building commercial activities in non-designating sectors, etc. We thought our mission here today would be a little bit easier until this document was published Friday in which it recommended or made an assumption ofleap of logic that existing NAP A store already qualified as a commercial activity, so therefore we can move it south of this intersection and then we now have "walla" a new commercial sector. I think the strategic issue before the Planning Commission today is, do you want to design a new commercial sector for the City? The extensive issue is the Item #9 & 10 Pleasant Ridge Auto Parts, Inc. Page II ..=.. store. I think it's really larger than that. The store is currently closed to 3 or 4 homes if you call close several hundred yards. If you move it to the intersection that is being talked about here it is going to be close to 10 or 12 homes. It will be nearly right across the street on West Neck fÌom a home that was just bought for $650,000. The resident, I don't know if she made it today because a lot of people work and can't make it today including my wife. She said she would have never bought that home had she knew that this was coming. Mr. Scott, sir respectfully, when I saw the recommendation in here I tried to call you Friday and members of your staff and I have not been responded to. I do not understand that with this current strategic plan that lays out all this guidance we could make a decision that already exists commercial infÌastructure there, therefore this next intersection is okay. I just can't understand it sir. Also I want to give you a little bit of history. In 1998, the current landowners, the Murden Family came to our door and several other neighborhood doors and sought to get signatures on a petition. It was to get a Conditional Use Pennit for two or three more new homes. That petition had a proffer that said we agree if these homes are approved to leave the remainder of the property in agricultural zoning. We signed it. Our neighbors signed it. In fact, there is a letter in your file, I believe from a former resident who sent it back to us attesting to that fact as well. That's a bit of background. I just think the Commission needs to know. Whether it's a material breach or not is arguable but it is certainly a breach of faith among the neighborhood. The gentleman that I spoke with in the Agriculture part of the City planning told me that per the current guidelines and I'm not an expert on zoning or things like that or land use that type 1 soils one home per five acres and type 2, I believe it's one per ten. If you consider the Murden acreage, 20 or so acres extend there are now six homes on the low end of 20 acres, which either way you cut those guidelines exceeds that. I believe it's an arguable point whether or not those three acres are even residual. Now, lets talk about these lists. Mr. Bourdon gave a nice presentation about all of these people who want this to happen. Let me tell you a little antidote about my going around with the petition. Many people who are not here today are opposed to this. They are not here today because they fear retribution. Common comment that I heard as I walked around the neighborhood. And, I'm a new guy. I came here in 1966 for the first time. I grew up in Iowa. I spent forty years in the Navy as I told you earlier. Common comment was if they want it they get it. A note of resignation attached to that comment. I said, what do you mean they? They are the power appropriates that be. Who are they? They're farmers. I have great respect for farmers. I grew up in a farm. I also know all about implement shops. My aunt ran one. We live in the age where UPS and online ordering and toll free numbers and overnight delivery is a bit of reality for everybody. I grew up new Sioux City, Iowa where ten implement computers in that City. Right now there are none. There were ten homes in miles fÌom Sioux Center to my home in Lebanon. There is one now. It's industria] farming. We all know about it. I recommend that you regard all the citizens of Virginia Beach and particularly the rural area as your customers. The customers are increasing in the rural residential set of customers. Farming, as far as I know is leve1 or decreasing. We all pay taxes and I think we deserve equal thoughtful consideration about the City's application of the rurals that are pretty much subscribed in this policy document. This list that Mr. Simpson worked up has people from Knotts Is]and to Cypress Point in Virginia Beach. Wonderful. If you said Item #9 & 10 Pleasant Ridge Auto Parts, Inc. Page 12 this NAP A store is going to be next to your house or across the street, how many people would have signed it? I can generate a list of thousand people that want a Barnes and Noble by the Food Lion at Sandbridge Road as long as you didn't build it next to their house. As I said earlier, I think Mr. Simpson get a new business although I've gone there many times. I'm one of his customers. I've always been able to find a place to park. I've always found in stock what it was I needed. So, I can summarize and I know you want me to I think we deserve the same consideration about this issue as if this were a proposed 7-eleven at the intersection of Harris Road and Little Neck Road in Virginia Beach. How would you react to it then? I think you ought to look at all the customers and not just what the farmers want. There is not one mention in this document about the rural residential populous affected by this proposed change. Not one word. Not one. I think Virginia Beach is grown up and it's just time for the City to act in that fashion and make decisions that are in the best interest of all the people and use the strategic plan vision as our guide. I thank you for your time. Dorothy Wood: Thank you sir. Could you please show us where you live? Do you live on West Neck? Dan Franken: Yes. Dorothy Wood: You can use the pointer if you like? Thank you sir. Dan Franken: Right next to this house. Dorothy Wood: Thank you sir. Dan Franken: You can put a light rail down there. Dorothy Wood: Thank you sir. Are there any other speakers? Mr. Bourdon, you have three minutes to rebut. Mr. Horsley might have something to say. ~ Eddie Bourdon: I appreciate some of the comments. I will start out with the ridiculous ones. Those of us who have been doing this a long time or lived here all our lives understand what we're trying to achieve and have done a whale of a job achieving. And some of the folks here in opposition are in good testament of that. The reference to bars, malls, and light rail. Let's get real folks. This is the rural part of the City where our Comprehensive Plan speaks volume about encouraging retention and expansion of agriculture and agricultural support businesses. That is what the Simpsons have is an agricultural support business and they are betting on are ARP working as it has worked and is working and that we're going to retain our farming base. Hopefully, Chesapeake will do the same thing. His business can continue to survive and he is betting on the combine that it will naturally survive but it's going to expand. The facility that he currently has doesn't meet any of his needs nor the parking or City standards. The facility that we propose will do that. Our Comprehensive Plan says we want to support agriculture. We want to support agricultural support businesses, which the Simpsons Item #9 & 10 Pleasant Ridge Auto Parts, Inc. Page 13 clearly have. That's indicative by the signatures, which no one putting a gun at anyone's head to get. In fact, people came to the business and signed and in fact there are 91 residents who signed that petition who live within a one-mile radius of this site. I don't know how many signatures are on the opposition petition but I don't think it gets anywhere near there. I don't think anybody put a gun to anybody's head to sign it. One gentleman said wow, 300 homes in fourteen years. We're going to have a mall down here. Well, guess what? That's 21 homes a year. Our Comprehensive Plan has since 1992 I believe it is 2500 plan, 2500 homes. We're not going to get there at the rate were going for another 20 something years. There will not be any malls being built down there. This is an excellent application. Traffic is not an issue because the traffic is going on the same two roads today to get to the NAP A store that is there today. It's a red herring. There may be a few more people go because the business will be a little bit larger but all the traffic that is going to the NAP A store right there will still be going to the NAP A store right here now. Dorothy Wood: Thanks Eddie. Eddie Bourdon: I know my time is up. Dorothy Wood: Thank you very much. Is there any discussion? Questions? Janice Anderson: I have a question of Eddie. Dorothy Wood: I'm sorry. Mr. Bourdon, would you please answer Jan's question? Janice Anderson: There was some concern about some noise in the quiet areas. Is there going to be any noise coming fÌom the store? Eddie Bourdon: It's just a part store. We're not doing repair work or anything of that nature on the site. And, hours of operation and we're not opened late into the evening or anything of that nature at all. Janice Anderson: Okay. Eddie Bourdon: Just people coming and going as you come and go at a store. Dorothy Wood: Are there any other questions of Eddie? Robert Miller: The people who live next door along West Neck Road, can you help me with who those are please? Or do you know? Eddie Bourdon: I'm sorry. I probably can get that information. ~ Dorothy Wood: The lady would like to tell you. Item #9 & 10 Pleasant Ridge Auto Parts, Inc. Page 14 Robert Miller: We'll get that in a minute. The Murdens own this entire piece of land? Eddie Bourdon: Yes. That is correct. 1 believe they are the ones who live in the two houses. Robert Miller: The two ofthem are shaded in that is why I was interested. Eddie Bourdon: I believe they're family members but I wouldn't state I'm certain ofthat. The one lady who spoke lives 1500 feet away. This isn't your community up here in the suburban part ofthe City where you got houses on 10,000 square foot lots. The one lady who spoke her house is close to 1500-2000 feet west fÌom this property. It's not right up on it. These are acre or larger lots. Dorothy Wood: Thank you. Ma'am, would you please answer Mr. Miller's question? Robert Miller: You have to tell us who you are. Dorothy Wood: Sir, you have to come up and tell us your name first please. Would you please come to the mic so we can get you on record. Ray Lobis: My name is Ray Lobis. Dorothy Wood: Thank you Mr. Lobis. Ray Lobos: I live at 3132 West Neck. Dorothy Wood: We would appreciate it if you would answer Mr. Miller's question. Robert Miller: That's fine. Thank you Mr. Lobis. That's helpful. I think the others I understand. Dorothy Wood: Thank you. Are there any other comments or discussion? Mr. Knight. ~ Barry Knight: Some things in here that I think we need to get directly straight. As far as talking about the one house to five acres the one house to ten acres, some of these lots were platted back when it was legal to go one house per one acre and one house per three acres. That is where you may have gotten a little density. The one to five and the one to ten has only been in effect may be ten years or so. Some of these houses are a lot older than that. We have a Comprehensive Plan that we're willing to stick with. This Comprehensive Plan says limited commercial down here. I read that as meaning extremely limited commercial. As far as bars and restaurants and shopping centers down here, I can't envision where I would ever vote for a commercial rezoning down this neck of the woods unless it was specifically orientated to the residents down here and maybe more specifically to the agriculture community.' It's a little bit of misnomer when you call this NAP A Auto Parts. It almost ought be called NAP A Agriculture Supply and Item #9 & 10 Pleasant Ridge Auto Parts, Inc. Page 15 Auto Parts. You can go there at lunchtime everyday when the farmers are going out for lunch and that is when it is most crowded. They know they have some parts to get. Farming hasn't been the greatest industry in the world in the last 15-20 years. We have old equipment. It tends to break down a lot. Hydraulic hoses break. We need inner tubes so we're going by here. Sometimes I know some farmers that go down here everyday and maybe sometimes twice a day. So, when it says we have provisions for limited commercial down here we mean very, very limited. And, this is the situation where I think a commercial zoning is warranted and probably is needed. We have if you get towards Nimmo, you may have a Twin Bee Auto Parts he needs to expand his business to compete with the business like this. Ifhe's not here and he can't compete and he truly disappears like the farm dealership did in Iowa, do you think they're going to fix us a hydraulic hose up there? Chances are no. Chances are we're going to have to go to Cleveland Street up in the industrial sector and time is money when we only have a certain window of opportunity to plant and harvest our crops. It is called in the Comprehensive Plan the Rural Service Area. Service being a key word is rural and this provides a service to us down here. As far as the road widths down here, we just did the Comprehensive Plan. We had the road widths. A 120-foot right-of-way fÌom Pungo down to Pungo Ferry we got it narrowed to 100 feet. The right-of-way that we even own some of it but on the City's book is 100 feet. That's going to take in the pavement, the swale ditches, maybe a bike lane on the side. We don't even have room for a four-lane road down here and put it in fashion that we need to put it in. So, the four-lane road is out. This business is going to be for agriculture parts and auto parts but agriculture is the key fÌamework for this. The Simpsons have been life long residents. We have three generations that have been in the auto and the service business down here. They do support the community. I don't even know how to stay in business they donate so much money to different organizations down there. And as far as this intersection, it is a busy intersection but I don't believe this intersection is possible as dangerous as where they are now. I have been in the auto parts store in the parking lot a couple of times when someone stops heading south to take a left on Pleasant Ridge a large dump truck will come around the curve and wont' see him in time have to hit the brakes and either go in the ditch or slide right through the parking lot. We have a proposal right now, to explore putting a left hand turn lane heading south right in fÌont of the NAP A Auto Parts as one down at Gum Bridge Road, I believe it is. There have been some accidents down here. This is a little bit of a straighter, now quite as much as a blind curve. So, as far as the style and the type of building down here, I agree with some of the farmers that say this is keeping in the rural character. We don't need a brick building down here. I don't believe that it will just look a little intrusive down here. We have 3 or 4 or 5 equestrian centers down here that were very proud of. I think they look wonderful and this is in keeping with the character with that. I believe that this building is in keeping with the character of the quality and the style that we want down here to advocate the rural and agricultural atmosphere that we now have down here. And, I'm going to be in support of this. =- Dorothy Wood: Thank you. Mr. Franken, I noticed that you had your hand raised. Did you have new information? Thank you. Mr. Horsley. Item #9 & 10 Pleasant Ridge Auto Parts, Inc. Page 16 Donald Horsley: Let me take my crack at some of these comments that we've heard today. One is that I didn't know farmers had quite as much clout as we may claim to have. But we got a lot of it I guess so we can get anything we want. But, what goes down to it the City has provided the agricultural community an opportunity to with the Agricultural Reserve Program as was mentioned early on. And, having a few businesses like this. We got a few feed stores and whatever but other than that we don't have any agriculture supply businesses in this area anymore. It was mentioned and I think Mr. William's letter kind of states it pretty clear that we got to go a minimum of 50 miles to get most of our parts and whatever. So, we need something. I mean if the City wants to maintain the viable agricultural industry we need some support services here. I think this is definitely one of them that we need to keep and to help them expand if we can. Location? Location? People can argue that there are better locations. Preferably, I would prefer to have it closer to Blackwater Steve, if we can get it there but I don't think that's the case. We won't be able to get it there. But he is established in this area and he's found a piece of property that's available and I think we got to consider that. 1 don't feel like this is going to develop into a major retail center. This is strictly a community business, an agriculture community. Ijust do not see it. We got a plan, as we mentioned to a 2500 plan that's been in affect for several years and that 2500 plan is a little bit out dated now because that has been reduced to the property that has gone into agricultural reserve program. Every time you retire some property into that program that density comes off this total. So, I think now we're probably and correct me if I'm wrong,! think were down in the 1800 plan right now, something like that. I don't think a lot ofthese traffic problems that are created on Princess Anne Road are necessarily created by Virginia Beach people, our neighbors in North Carolina have contributed a lot to the congestion on Princess Anne Road and I think many of you can attest to that. The road traffic problems, you know as Barry mentioned the Agricultural Advisory Commission stays up on issues that they think are important in the City and Barry mentioned that one night at one of our meetings about some of these dangerous intersections. And, he's right. They are already in the plans to make some changes for turn lanes and whatever at some of these major intersections. And, this West Neck could be very well added to that if the need seems to be there. And, I respect Mr. Waller comments on the building. But if you ride through the rural end of the City even on our farm at home we have two metal buildings that are very similar in color to this building. That is just something you see. You got horse facilities. You got farm buildings. That's the most logical thing to build in the rural end of the City and in the farming community. So, they've done a lot of work with landscaping. They put the brick face at the base of the building. I think they've done an outstanding job with this plan. I respect the people who are in opposition. May be we would feel different if it was in our backyard or whatever but I think the Simpsons have proved to be good neighbors. Good citizens. I think they will do everything they can to please their neighbors and try to make their business not interfere with their livelihoods. So, with that whenever you're ready for a motion, I'm ready for one. Dorothy Wood: Is there any other discussion? Mr. Crabtree. - Eugene Crabtree: Just words. I'm going to support Don and Barry in this. I grew up on a farm community. I lived there until I left home many years ago. I found out that if it's Item #9 & JO Pleasant Ridge Auto Parts, Inc. Page 17 the old school, if you're in Rome you do as the Romans do. If you're going to move into the farm community you got to do was the farmers do. It is a rural community. It is a farm community. If you chose to move and relocate and live there you have to put up with the things that go with it. This is a business that is designed for the farmers. The farmers are going to use it. There's no more traffic that is going to go to the new store than currently goes to the old store. So, the thing of traffic just doesn't fly. The hours of operation is going to be during the daytime. It's not going to disturb anybody's rest or peace or whatever I do not believe. And, therefore since it is for the farmers, it's something that they need that they got to have. And, if we don't do it and if we don't put it down there, pretty soon we're not going to have the farmers because they can't afford to go someplace else and lose the time to get parts off their equipment and to do things and to farm. We're not going to have any farmers. And if we don't have any farmers we're not going to eat. Dorothy Wood: Thank you Gene. Eugene Crabtree: So in that case, I'm going to be for it. Dorothy Wood: Thank you. Mr. Miller. Robert Miller: I'm not going to make a long speech. I think the question that Mr. Franken asked of strategic thinking and so forth is one of the paradoxes of this conversation is that the stakeholders come forward and listen to all the stakeholders and we still have to make a decision. And, the decision we made is basically outlined in the Comprehensive Plan as you pointed out. I feel like the Comprehensive Plan kind of sets of the paradoxes that we called this Agricultural Area and Agricultural Reserve Area and then we said yes, we want additional folks to live down there, 2500 plan. And, then we come back now and find each other kind of going at the issue from two different directions. One of is perceived quality oflife from an agricultural point of view and the other is certain a perceived quality oflife fÌom a pure residential point of view. And the balance of that is very difficult to meet but I think the outline that we set in place to start with and it says agricultural fÌom the gecko is that we want to make sure and provide for the needs ofthat community and that community has a need that's not being able to be met at its current configuration. So, I'm going to be in support of this application. Dorothy Wood: Mr. Waller. ~ John Waller: I am and after listening to the opposition, I'm still don't think it's too bad an idea to go ahead and rezone it. I'm not against the rezoning. It's inevitable that comer is going to be a major intersection in a couple of years and my probJem is that it should be and make is whole lot easier for everybody down there if you have a well designed buildings and the buildings to come after this. It needs a little better architecturaI design to improve it and it would make it a whole lot easier for all you people who live down there but I'm going to oppose it not because I'm opposed to the rezoning but I'm opposed to the style of building. It just sort of sets a precedent to go down there. Item #9 & 10 Pleasant Ridge Auto Parts, Inc. Page 18 Dorothy Wood: Thank you. Is there anyone else? Mr. Horsley, we're ready for your motion please. Donald Horsley: Unless Barry wants to make it. I'm prepared to make a motion that we approve the application, Item #9 & 10. Barry Knight: I'll second it. Dorothy Wood: A motion by Don Horsley, seconded by Barry Knight to approve Item #9 & 10. How do we do this? ANDERSON CRABTREE DIN HORSLEY KATSIAS KNIGHT MILLER RIPLEY STRANGE WALLER WOOD AYE 10 NAY 1 ABSO ABSENT 0 AYE AYE AYE AYE AYE AYE AYE AYE AYE NAY AYE Ed Weeden: By a vote 10-1, Items #9 & 10 has been approved. Dorothy Wood: This is just a recommendation. I know that people who oppose, I just want to make sure that you realize that we are only recommending to City Council and you will have an opportunity to go to City Council and present your side, and thank you all for coming today. We do appreciate it. ~ i, l ¡, 'ì THIS IS A PETITION FOR THE RELOCATION OF PLEASAN';' RlDGE AUTO PARTS; TO THE LOCA nON OF WEST NECK AND PRINCESS ANNE ROADS, WE ARE REQUESTING A ZONfNG CHANGE FOR THAT PROPERTY FRerv!

(K 16-210-CRZ-2004) J- '&'4YJ 9 Dear Planning Commission Members: When I bought this lot four years ago from Wayne Murden, he told me that the surrounding properties were zoned agricultural and would remain as such. This was one ofthe major reasons for my purchase. I did not want to be in a city environment, with all the negatives associated with that. Now, he is attempting to change the conditions, with all the negative impacts associated with that. He gets the money and we are left with the traffic, business next to our properties, etc. I've invested much of what I have, being retired, in this home. The city of Virginia Beach is enjoying the increased real estate taxes from that investment. I feel that the city would be breaking faith with us if they approve this rezoning request Please do not approve this petition. Sincerely yours, Mr. & Mrs. Raymond Lobus "~f~ .~.~¿.~ = April?,20O4 Mr. Robert Scott Director, Platming Department Municipal Center - Bldg 2 2405 Courthouse Dr. Virginia Beach V A 23456 Dear Mr. Scott, On behalf of many residents of the Pleasant Ridge community, I submit the attached letter of petition. Tlús letter expresses our individual and collective opposition to an ongoing action whereby the NW corner of the intersection of West Neck and Princess Anne Road is proposed to be rezoned ftom Agricultural to Commercial. Essentially all nearby residents whose quality of life and residential property values would be affected by the proposed rezoning have expressed their flI1Il opposition. Nearby residents not on the list were either not able to be contacted, or, some have equities in the commercial development prospect(s). I request that you distribute copies of the petition letter (four pages) to each member of the planning commission and each member of Va. Beach city council. Also attached is an originalletter ftom a former resident, attesting to the 1àct that their family, mine, and others, were approached during or about 1998, by the landowner(s) of the property in question. In that action, the landowner sought and received neighborhood signatures on his petition to "develop two or three" additional properties on his acreage. The "quid pro quo," as I and others recall, was that "the remainder ofhis properties would "remain in agricultural zoning/use." That same property is now being proposed for three acres of Commercial zoning. I have sought to find some evidence of this "proffer" to no avail. Whether or not it was used to achieve the development approVal is not clear. Inexplicably, no record of it exists. I request that you make the attached letter also a part of the official record. I would appreciate your informing me of the schedule and key milestones for the proposed rezoning hearings. I further ask that you make available, copies of the application for the rezoning, as well all comments by the various agencies who review such actions. Please extend our thanks to Ms. Karen Prochilo for her most professional support throughout this process. She certainly exemplifies the ideal public employee. Thank you in advance. = Sincertrt. - . ¡; 'A-----. ¡J :.,¡¡' c-- ,~"- Daniel Franken, CAPT, USN (Ret) LETTER OF PETITION TO VIRGINIA BEACH CITY COUNCIL AND PLANNING COMMISSION The undersigned citizens of Virginia Beach and residents ofthe Pleasant Ridge area hereby express our utmost opposition to a request for zoning change that would permit the construction of a NAP A auto parts store on the NW corner of the intersection of Princess Anne and West Neck Roads. There are nwnerous reasons for our opposition. foremost being that such an enterprise will have a negative impact on the rural residential environment that each ofus seek and is why we live here. Second, locating a new, larger store at this critically busy rural intersection of West Neck and Princess Anne Roads will exacerbate already intense traffic density, further decrease safe travel, and worsen the area's quality oflife. Third, we believe that a zoning change from Agricultural to Commercial will eventually pave the way to an unstopping rationale for further commercial development at a key nexus of roadways and country homes. Other critical points: The proposed rezoning is in conflict with the newest Virginia Beach Comprehensive Plan (dated Dec 2003) in nearly every respect. For instance, the Plan's policy guidance for the rural area of the city states: "protect rural character and existing scenic views ...franchise retail, office parks or shopping centers are not to be encouraged... create non-residential development at key crossroads to encourage community interaction of people, not vehicles... commercial retail development should be located in existing defined rural commercial centers, such as Creeds and Blackwater, for supporting the local rural community in lieu of strip shopping center development. " Regarding Residential Development, Guidelines call for: "Rural settlement patterns reinforce pastoral ways of life ... immediate views along the main rural roads are of pasturelands, croplands ...located at a distance off the road are farm homes, barns, silos, and other outbuildings." = The Rural Area (all city area south ofIndian River Road) is designated a Special Area per the Comprehensive Plan. As such, limited low density residential development, and no additional requirement for ()( infrastructure is called for in the plan - with preservation of the rural character having prominence. It is for this very reason that so many residents ofthis Special Rural Area chose to invest in homes and acreages to live here. The erection of a new commercial activity (in an area that is, arguably, already too densely developed) within a very close distance (hundreds of feet and hundreds of yards) to no less than fifteen homes is unacceptable. Approval for such a rezoning and commercial development would certainly violate both the letter and intent ofthe Comprehensive Plan. When the impact on traffic safety, noise, overall environment and other factors are considered, the proposal appears completely incongruous to the neighborhood and public good at large. Said another way, the residents of this area have delibemtely invested in half-million dollar homes, and don't expect nor desire an auto parts store plunked within their midst. The current NAPA store appears to serve the area completely satisfactorily and is a part of the accepted landscape. There are dozens of businesses located in appropriate commercial nodes that offer sllnilar or like products to that of the NAPA store - all within relatively short distances. We, like most families who chose to live in country, expect and desire to purchase consumer products at establishments in commercial sectors of the city - that is whv we live here. The subject rezoning request presents a test of the city's commitment to its policy and vision - its Comprehensive Plan. In so doing, it will explore what is in the best interests of the citizens. The signers of this petition have made strategic decisions for our families and futw"es by choosing to live here, and we rely on the words and commitments of our public officials and elected representatives. We have dedicated a large amount of personal resources to invest in rural homes and enjoy a unique quality of life. In advance, we thank the employees who serve the city of Virginia Beach staff, members of the Planning Commission, and City Council for their integrity, vision, and commitment to our great city. = NAME & ADDRESS SIGNATURE DATE DfJ)/lt{ t1f..~ /JÞftlv.' ,/IU ¿<úrA-üf¡n (Îz.,~ 1"'1'/1 0;1 ;) (j Iv Iv Vi- k iJ IV j¿'{1LI I I ¡jJ rh( q) ~ aK~ I I pz <; I r; A/;'2- It/! /l (-- ~~~:\\:;o,7'~~ck ~J y;!¥ ((QU( to ¡; ({ S;' /J I fJ t././3 >.. ~ 7uJ< i2; 1:( ~ <pI ( "Y ¿aMI, ÇJ.2D¡fA<;{ / ~J2 .f )¡Joe./- ¿' fJ (Lfr')f..)

Background: (a) An Ordinance upon Application of HAC Properties, L.LC. for a Chanae of Zonina District Classification from AG-2 Agricultural District to Conditional B-2 Community Business District on property located at 1771 Princess Anne Road (GPINS 24039195630000; 24039176520000). The Comprehensive Plan identifies this site as being within the Rural Area. DISTRICT 7 - PRINCESS ANNE (b) An Ordinance upon Application of HAC Properties, LLC. for a Conditional Use Permit for a self storage facility on property located at 1771 Princess Anne Road (GPINS 24039195630000; 24039176520000). DISTRICT 7 - PRINCESS ANNE . Considerations: It is the intent of the applicant to conditionally rezone a 3.34 acre parcel from AG- 2 Agricultural to B-2. This parcel is located behind property already zoned B-2. The applicant is also applying for a Conditional Use Permit for a mini-warehouse facility in conjunction with an office-warehouse and mini-storage facility. Access to the site is from Princess Anne Road along a drive aisle that runs back to the main portion of the site. The southern portion of the site is proposed for office-warehouse structures, consisting of 1,880 square feet of office space and 8,820 square feet of warehouse storage. The site plan shows seven such units, each with 240 square feet of office and 1,260 square feet of warehouse storage. The northern portion is proposed for mini-warehouse structures and is gated off from the office-warehouse portion. The submitted plan indicates there will be 15,500 square feet of mini-warehouse space. Parking is provided for 30 vehicles, meeting the requirements of the City Zoning Ordinance. The use is proposed to be located on a parcel within Pungo, the largest of the existing commercial and service nodes in the Rural Area. It should be noted, however, that this node has been identified for a special planning study through HAC, L.L.C. Page 2 of 3 an advisory committee report for the Transition Area as well as the "Agenda for Future Action" within the Comprehensive Plan. The uniqueness and potential of Pungo must be factored into the design of any proposed use for this crossroads. In lieu of having a special plan in place for Pungo at the present time, adherence to the Plan's Rural Development Guidelines for Non-Residential Uses is critical. The proffered plan indicates that there will be no encroachment into the floodplain. The plan also shows the location of a stormwater management facility and a septic tank field. However, Planning Department Staff, as well as the Agriculture Department, remain concerned that there will be significant issues for the applicant to address during development plan review regarding water and sewer provision and site drainage. The Comprehensive Plan notes "development in rural commercial centers can include locally oriented retail, service and community uses scaled to be compatible with the character of the rural landscape," (p. 170). The proposed use could potentiallv provide a service to the surrounding rural and semi-rural (Transition Area) areas. However, Staff concluded that the building design and overall site layout as submitted was not consistent with the Plan's recommendation that the uses be 'scaled to be compatible with the character of the rural landscape.' The architectural design of the building, while using a quality exterior building material, lacks details that can ensure an excellent contribution to the overall character of the Rural Area. The design of the buildings submitted for the Planning Commission hearing was simple, utilitarian rectangular masses with a gable roof. Exterior materials were brick on the fronts facing Princess Anne Road and metal on the rear and portions of the sides. Small cupolas were placed on the center of the gable roofs. The buildings had no architectural detail (beside the cupolas) and lacked any vertical or horizontal articulation to the facades. As noted above, the appearance is strictly utilitarian. The Planning Commission directed the applicant to work with Staff to improve the appearance of the building. The Staff and the applicant continue to work on the elevations of the building. It is doubtful that a final design will be available prior to the City Council hearing. Staff, therefore, recommends a deferral of this item to allow time for the design to be finalized. Staff recommended denial. There was opposition to the requests. . Recommendations: Staff recommends deferral for the reason indicated above. The Planning Commission passed a motion by a recorded vote of 11-0 to approve this request as proffered. . Attachments: Staff Review HAC, L.L.C.

Major Issues The following represent the significant issues identified by the staff concerning this request. Staff's evaluation of the request is largely based on the degree to which these issues are adequately addressed. . Located within the Pungo Center Area, which has been identified in the Comprehensive Plan's "Agenda for Future Action" for a special planning initiative. . Portions of this parcel may be within the 1 DO-year floodplain and affected by the Site Plan Ordinance provisions for floodplains subject to special restrictions. HAC PROPERTIES, L.L.C. Agenda Item # 16 & # 17 Page 2 The Comprehensive Plan recognizes this property to be part of the Rural Service Area, which has a limited ability to adequately accommodate more than minimum levels of growth and change. One measure in the strategy to restrain urban growth in this area is to retain the rural character of the southern area south of Indian River Road. Direction within the General Strategy chapter calls for careful adherence to our rural preservation policies, which are located within the Rural Area chapter. The Rural Preservation Plan objectives combined with the rural development guidelines assist in channeling the growth into carefully chosen areas capable of absorbing it. The Comprehensive Plan has the Pungo Center Study listed as an initiative of the Agenda for Future Action. The subject site likely would be within a radius for the study. It is the intent of the applicant to conditionally rezone a 3.34 acre parcel from AG-2 Agricultural to B-2. This parcel is located behind property already zoned B-2. The applicant is also applying for a Conditional Use Permit for a mini warehouse facility in conjunction with an office-warehouse and mini-storage facility. Access to the site is from Princess Anne Road along a drive aisle that runs back to the main portion of the site. The southern portion of the site is proposed for office- warehouse structures, consisting of 1,880 square feet of office space and 8,820 square feet of warehouse storage.

Exterior materials are brick on the fronts facing Princess Anne Road and metal on the rear and portions of the sides. Small cupolas are placed on the center of the gable roofs. The buildings have no architectural detail (beside the cupolas) and lack any vertical or horizontal articulation to the facades. As noted above, the appearance is strictly utilitarian. The following are proffers submitted by the applicant as part of a Conditional Zoning Agreement (CZA). The applicant, consistent with Section 1 07(h) of the City Zoning Ordinance, has voluntarily submitted these proffers in an attempt to "offset identified problems to the extent that the proposed rezoning is acceptable," (§107(h)(1 ). Should this application be approved, the proffers will be recorded at the Circuit Court and serve as conditions restricting the use of the property as proposed with this change of zoning. PROFFER # 1 PROFFER # 2 PROFFER # 3 When the Property is developed, it shall be developed substantially as shown on the exhibit entitled "PRELIMINARY LAYOUT PUNGO COMMERCE CENTER", prepared by Mel Smith & Associates, dated 4- 11-2004, which has been exhibited to the Virginia Beach City Council and is on file with the Virginia Beach Department of Planning (hereinafter "Site Plan"). When the property is developed, the buildings depicted on the Site Plan will have the architectural design and will utilize the building materials substantially as depicted and designated on the exhibit entitled "PROPOSED ELEVATIONS FOR PUNGO COMMERCE CENTER" prepared by Mel Smith & Associates, dated 4-11-2004, which have been exhibited to the Virginia Beach City Council and are on file with the Virginia Beach Department of Planning (hereinafter referred to as the "Elevation Plans") When the Property is developed, only the following uses will be permitted: HAC PROPERTIES, L.L.C. Agenda Item # 16 &# 17 Page 4 a) Business Studios, offices and clinics; b) Mini-warehouses; c) Repair and sales for radio and television and other household appliances and small business machines. PROFFER # 4 All outdoor lighting shall be shielded, deflected, shaded and focused to direct light down onto premises and away from adjoining property. PROFFER # 5 Further conditions may be required by the Grantee during detailed Site Plan review and administration of applicable City codes by all cognizant City agencies and departments to meet all applicable City code requirements. Staff Evaluation of The above proffers are acceptable however the proffer Proffers: agreement does not adequately address all concerns as identified in the staff evaluation. City Attorney's Office: The City Attorney's Office has reviewed the proffer agreement dated April 26, 2004, and found it to be legally sufficient and in acceptable legal form. Staff Evaluation Staff cannot recommend approval of this request. Staffs evaluation of this request reveals the proposal, through the submitted materials and the proffers, does not adequately address each of the 'Major Issues' identified at the beginning of this report. (1) The Comprehensive Plan notes "development in rural commercial centers can include locally oriented retail, service and community uses scaled to be compatible with the character of the rural landscape," (p. 170). The proposed use could potentially provide a service to the surrounding rural and semi-rural (Transition Area) areas. However, Staff does not believe the building design and overall site layout as submitted is consistent with the Plan's recommendation that the uses be 'scaled to be compatible with the character of the rural landscape.' HAC PROPERTIES, LLC. Agenda Item # 16 & # 17 Page 5 (2) The use is proposed to be located on a parcel within Pungo, the largest of the existing commercial and service nodes in the Rural Area. This also is consistent with the recommendations of the Comprehensive Plan. It should be noted, however, that this node has been identified for a special planning study through an advisory committee report for the Transition Area as well as the "Agenda for Future Action" within the Comprehensive Plan. The uniqueness and potential of Pungo must be factored into the design of any proposed use for this crossroads. In lieu of having a special plan in place for Pungo at the present time, adherence to the Plan's Rural Development Guidelines for Non-Residential Uses is critical. Staff does not believe that the submitted plan adheres to those guidelines. (3) The proffered plan indicates that there will be no encroachment into the floodplain. The plan also shows the location of a stormwater management facility and a septic tank field. However, Planning Department Staff, as well as the Agriculture Department, remain concerned that there will be significant issues for the applicant to address during development plan review regarding water and sewer provision and site drainage. Staff suggests that these issues be resolved to the greatest extent possible before consideration of action by the Planning Commission. (4) The architectural design of the building, while using a quality exterior building material, lacks details that can ensure an excellent contribution to the overall character of the Rural Area, as recommended by the Comprehensive Plan. The building is truly a brick warehouse with a gable roof and an ill-proportioned cupola detail. There are modifications to the design that can be instituted to achieve the goal that the Comprehensive Plan strives for. Based on the above, Staff cannot recommend approval of these requests. Staff's desire is to continue to work with the applicant to address the areas of concern outlined above. However, the applicant expressed no equal desire to cooperate with Staff in this regard and requested that these applications move forward "as is." Staff, therefore, recommends denial of the requests for a Conditional Change of Zoning and a Conditional Use Permit. 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 al/ applicable CiW Codes. HAC PROPERTIES, L.L.C.

The use as you heard discussed this morning and as the staff has pointed in their write-up, it isn't so much the use that has caused them some concern it is the appearance of the exterior of these buildings. There was some concern about because we do have the backside of the property, west side of the property, the flood plain areas that are not developable. There was some concern on whether the development went into those areas. First of all, that issue is a site plan issue, above all others and secondly, what you see and what you have before you does not encroach into those areas according to our environmental expert, which is what has been provided to you. If that were and again, hypothetically not suggesting that there is any error there, if that was however to be an error in anyway, all that would take place is that the facility, which is not particularly large to be going with would be made smaller. The appearance wouldn't change. The nature of the use wouldn't change. The second issue that was eluded too was septic tank draining field. Again, that has been provided for on the site as well as being appeasements provided for on the site. But when you get to the Health Department review, which is down the road and not at the fÌont end it is certainly possible that some of the units, some of the parking and they all go hand in hand might not be there because we may need more of the area set aside for septic draining field than we currently have. Then again, we don't believe that to be the case at all. But that's the nature of any application when you're not dealing with city water, city sewer when you get the actual develop your plans the plans may change. As an example of that there is a subdivision at Pungo Ferry Road and Princess Anne Road that a Use Permit was approved over two years ago. We're finally getting the subdivision plat recorded because of all the requirements and all of the hoops that we have to jump through. So, the point of the site issues we're quite confident that this is what the site will look like but it is certainly possible that it maybe somewhat smaller. It won't be any larger. Okay. But again, the Use as the staffhas indicated when it's a back lot use. It's not out on the road. It's at the south end of the Pungo commercial area if you will. I think it is an appropriate use for this piece of property and it's one that there is a need for and there's one there is a market for. The only other storage facility that I am aware of south of Indian River Road at Creeds, which was just approved and constructed and is already full. It's not a very large one but it is full. So, there is a need and a demand in the market for them. These aren't people up in the north end driving down to Creeds to put their stuff in a small storage locker. So, I don't think the Use has been before and frankly should be an issue. Question that staff has concerns about is the architecture of the building. And, while we certainly believe that it is an attractive building. This is a rendering that was done of the building as originally proposed and we passed out this morning. There are some revisions to this. It's a brick building. It's all brick. And, we have added windows to the building that weren't shown originally. Again, on the office warehouse, the mini-storage over here, we've added windows. We also added a water course brick like this building we are in today has the Georgian style building with bricks at the low level that come out fÌom the foundation. We've also added shoulder course arches over the doors on the building to dress up the building. But I would suggest to you that when you look at the buildings in Pungo that are there today and you look at what is being proposed here off of the road, behind other buildings and with very limited visibility. I know the word Item #16 & 17 HAC Properties, L.L.c. Page 3 "utilitarian" has been said a bunch of times this morning. I fÌankly think the buildings are attractive. I think even the use of the building are not retail outlets. They're not Courthouse Marketplaces. These aren't stores. I think they are attractive buildings. Now granted the back ofthe buildings are metal but they face woods and flood plain. It's an area that is never going to be developed. It can't be developed. Again, this rendering does not show the improvements that were shown on the elevations that we passed out this morning that my client will gladly, gladly make. We've made those upgrades after we viewed the staffs comments. We did not receive any feedback ahead of time in terms of what was being requested but the elevations that we submitted should have been submitted earlier in the process and I also thing we should have gotten some feedback a little earlier in the process but it's not a situation where the staff is the blame for this. I'm not suggesting that anyway they are the blame for it. We believe that it is a very attractive building as shown and even more so with the changes that we made. The other discussion that I heard is about the future action plan for Pungo or the Pungo plan. As a member of the land use subcommittee on vision, we've been suggesting that for quite some time. Weare in agreement with it. But when you look at it and you look where this property is located, I can't conceive of anything else that is more appropriate for this piece of property at the south end of Pungo where water and sewer are not available. It's not going to be Ghent down here folks. And, the Culpepper's are not leaving this area. They have a stake here and have for 31 years. We hope that you will agree that it's an appropriate land use and that the plans are attractive and will not be a detriment to the character of the area. Dorothy Wood: Thank you Mr. Bourdon. Joseph Strange: Speaking in support is Al Henley. Al Henley: Thank you again for allowing me come before you today. For the record, my name is Al Henley. I am a life long resident to the Back Bay/Pungo area. Correct me if I'm wrong Eddie, the commercial property is in front of this proposed property, aren't they all zoned B-2? I come here before once again to support this application. I really can't think of a better application. The property the way it is situated is kindly unusual. It reminds me of a large flag lot if you will. But, ideally the way the elevation topographically of the land is, it goes down slightly in the rear. You can't visual see it from Princess Anne Road if you're really looking. Obviously, you will see the roof and copula is on the top. The rest of the buildings or the actual proposed building would be obscured by the existing businesses that have been there for many years at Pungo. I think they have done an excellent job in upgrading the facility fÌom the original application. I think the color is and the brick is an upscale compared to what we could have there. But, once again not to labor the time and everyone's effort here I am totally in support of it. I spoke to many people who live in Pungo that have been there for generations. They are also in support of this. I think it's a good thing. = Dorothy Wood: Thanks for Mr. Henley. Item #16 & 17 HAC Properties, LLC. Page 4 Al Henley: Thank you. Joseph Strange: And speaking in opposition is Gene Hansen. Dorothy Wood: Thank you for coming Mr. Hansen. Gene Hansen: Thank you Chairman Wood. Ladies and gentlemen of Planning Commission, my name is Gene Hansen. I have property at Pungo. I own a three-acre B- 2 piece that is currently being used for agricultural use. I have a 69-acre horse farm. By the way as I said to Mr. Bourdon it is not metal. It does have a baked enamel steel roof and I appreciate his compliments but it is not a metal roof. Six years ago, predecessor really to Mr. Knight and Mr. Horsley, Mr. Eliason made sure that in the previous Comprehensive Plan there was a call for a study of Pungo and what it could be. Mr. Eliason put together an informal committee that met several times, had great input :!Tom Tom Pauls so he rightly deserves the award representing a personifYing all of planning that was just recently received. But he recognized this was a special area. And this current Comprehensive Plan there's that recognition as well that Pungo needs to be studied. And, this is the first time that I've ever been before Planning when I was in opposition of something. I said on the Transition Area Committee and I think that committee worked very well in trying not to take away property rights but to qualify some of the nice things that we would like to see in our City. I have a fairly substantial investment and even though that I think Herb Culpepper has done a nice job with trying to change agricultural use to something that may be acceptable, in the scheme of things that it is putting the cart before the horse. It's necessary for maybe Planning Department or maybe the Commission telling Planning, to get underway with a study of Pungo. Put together the same kind of commission in essence or committee to look at what Pungo could be because comparing as Mr. Bourdon did this to what's there now, I think it's going to be different. And, so I would like to see Mr. Eliason's plan come before the Commission. I'm sorry to speak against Herb. He's been a good fÌiend down there but it is not time to have something like this in Pungo. I'll be happy to answer any questions. Dorothy Wood: Would you please show us where you live sir? You can use the pointer if you like? Gene Hansen: This is the three-acre commercial piece. There were residences here, which are not there anymore. The horse farm runs in this area. You can see the horse barn. It's right there. I own all of the land in here. The subject property is right down here. So, I'm right down the road. Dorothy Wood: Are there any questions for Mr. Hansen? Ronald Ripley: I have a question? = Dorothy Wood: Mr. Hansen. Item #16 & 17 HAC Properties, LLC. Page 5 Ronald Ripley: I think in the Transition study Pungo was addressed wasn't it? It looked like to me the suggestive guidelines and other things were voted in the study. Gene Hansen: Pungo is one of those places that is listed as a center node. It needs forth coming study. It's an essential area. I guess Mr. Scott can clear that up a little probably better than I as far the vernacular that was used for. And, the Transition area and since the Committee was only suppose to study the Transition Area itself, noted that Pungo does need it's own specific analysis. And also they called the trails to go south of there to as well. Ronald Ripley: Other than the suggested study, do you object to the Use? What is it you object to? Gene Hansen: This kind of use for a mini-storage sort of puts a nail in the coffin of what could be or what could occur in Pungo. Now, because it will curtail what kind of development or redevelopment can occur there because you're putting in a mini-storage. A mini-storage is not known for a place where you're going to have a more upscale environment or specialty retailers. Now, and I spoke to Herb in advance and I told him that I was going to oppose this. I said Herb, just wait until there is some study and then it might fit. He said, I've waited 30 years. And, maybe he has since he has been down there. And so, I feel for him. It puts a body between a rock and hard place but I don't see where mini-storage is going to improve the ambiance and the flavor of the village of Pungo. And, I've worked with several people at Planning already and looking at what storefÌonts could be and parking behind areas to really make Pungo a special area. Even though to bar from planning and planning as you know opposed this. One of the things that they said that there is only a potential service provided by this. And, this is a special service area that needs to studied. I think there is lots of reason to either defer until something comes out or decline this proposal. Dorothy Wood: Are there any other questions for Mr. Hansen? Barry Knight: I got one Dot. Dorothy Wood: I'm sorry Barry. Barry Knight: Hey Gene. Gene Hansen: By the way, we're you talking about my hoses that needed to be replaced last week? Barry Knight: Possible. It could have been. Gene Hansen: I did get two of them down there in the back of my komodo. = Item #16 & 17 HAC Properties, LLC. Page 6 Barry Knight: You know you have 69-acres and you have the most valuable piece of property in Pungo and the nicest, most centrally located. And, your property is where it is all going to start. Probably, because chances of tearing down the 7 -eleven or tearing down John Mundens or tearing down the bank building or something probably isn't something that's going to happen anytime soon. Mundens have been there for probably a 100 years. They might be there for another 100 years. Gene Hansen: Mundens is owned by a family that is willing to work on their 5.3 acres. Karen Prochilo is here. She has done a great job of drawing a lot of these areas. And your right, it may start on my corner but I've said no to the 7-eleven's and the McDonald's. Showing the patience until we get this. Barry Knight: That's the point that I'm trying to make. The point that I'm trying to make, and I know that your farm and property is now listed and is for sale. Gene Hansen: A note of clarification. Given what they are selling farm properties for in the Transition Area, I can jump right across the line and build another facility like this and pull out about $30,000 an acre. I don't mind doing that. Barry Knight: I understand that. Gene Hansen: I'm not leaving Pungo. Barry Knight: Gene, let me finish. Let me finish. You have a wonderful 69-acres. If there is a vision for Pungo and if it's going to happen sooner rather than later, it probably is going to be at your property. And, I think you have a chance right now to put some deed restrictions on your land saying that if anyone buys your land that they only can do this. I hate to put the money on your back you can set the example right now. So, I didn't know if maybe you had considered that or not. Gene Hansen: Maybe you don't know this but I've already put deed well rights and drainage rights into the 69-acre piece fÌom the three-acre piece so that the three-acre piece can be developed really nicely and well. Barry Knight: You understand where I'm coming fÌom? Gene Hansen: Oh absolutely. I bought into Pungo a dozen years ago with a vision that I've been trying to work with. Bob Scott probably hates to see me coming down his hallway. I've been preaching what should occur in Pungo for a long time. I was part of the Committee that envisioned many years ago that made sure that Pungo was mentioned in the previous five-year plan. So, I would hate to see it derailed now when we may be much closer, meaning on what you want to do to this Pungo plan. = Barry Knight: You understood what I was getting at. Item #16 & 17 HAC Properties, LLC. Page 7 Gene Hansen: I do. Barry Knight: I think you can start the message. Gene Hansen: That is why I'm here in opposition. Eugene Crabtree: I've got one simple question for you Gene and you moving down there and all that. Have you ever used a mini-storage since you say that it is a lowly place? Gene Hansen: The answer is no, I have not. I just don't mow it is going to be the part. They just opened up some mini-storages at Dam Neck and Princess Anne. That's an area where it may look better for mini-storage. Eugene Crabtree: I just wanted to ask you that question. Gene Hansen: No. I've never used it. I've got barns. Eugene Crabtree: Okay. Dorothy Wood: Are there any other questions ofMr. Hansen? Thank you sir. Gene Hansen: Thank you very much. Dorothy Wood: Are there any other speakers Mr. Strange. Gene Hansen: I think there is one more who does wish to speak in opposition. Dorothy Wood: Okay. Is that Diane? I don't think she signed up. I'm sure you can still speak. Just fill in the card. I guess she can do that. Dianne Momoe: Thank you for allowing me to speak without signing up. My name is Dianne Momoe. And, I'm also in opposition basically for the same reasons that Gene Hansen is in opposition. I believe that the studies have not been done and the whole comprehensive idea is still in an informative stage and to go ahead and making decisions without completing the informative stage and coming up with an overall plan is not a good thing to do at this time. Dorothy Wood: Thank you. I filled in the card for you. What is your address? Dianne Momoe: 1317 King Fisher Court. Dorothy Wood: And where do you live fÌom this new project? = Dianne Momoe: I actually do live in the 23451 zip code but I have horses that I keep in Pungo and I have donated several to the mounted police, which is directly behind this Item #16 & 17 HAC Properties, LLc. Page 8 property. I am very enthusiastic about Pungo and the potential for a village in a lovely area that it could be. I would like to before the definitive decisions are made have the planning in place to go ahead with something that is a long-term plan. And, maybe this is the impotence that is needed to make those decisions come to the fÌont and have those plans drawn up. Dorothy Wood: Thank you very much. Dianne Monroe: Thank you. Dorothy Wood: Mr. Bourdon, would you like to come back for a few minutes? Eddie Bourdon: Yes I would. First of all, like Gene I was on the Virginia Beach vision and still am, land use committee that strongly suggested and recommended that we do a Pungo study back in the prior Comprehensive Plan. So, I totally agree with him in that regard. I totally disagree with him when he makes what I consider to be an absurd suggestion that approving this use on this back lot property at the south end of Pungo where there is no water and sewer and won't be any water or sewer is somehow going to derail that process. I don't how you get from point "A" to point "B". Where Gene's property is located and the other properties north of Indian River Road, water and sewer are potentially available. And so a lot of things can potentially be done with those properties. You got the one unit break or residential. I know there's been interest in the property for some residential development. But the idea that we're going to come down well below Indian River Road and below all of these commercial and homes and offices and what have you in Pungo and this is going to the lynch pin to a Pungo plan, I just, sorry, I don't get it. Ifwe were talking about putting this out on Princess Anne Road I would understand what he was talking about. We're talking about 58-60 storage units. That's a very, very small facility located behind an office building. We're also looking at an office warehouse use, again, a small use of about 8 units upon, again this back lot property in an area, the only area where this really can go. There is a market for it and it's an attractively designed facility. We're certainly willing to look at enhancement to improve design. But when you look at what's around it we're not trying to go down we're trying to go up but it is not a visible sight at all. Dorothy Wood: Thank you very much Mr. Bourdon. Eddie Bourdon: I don't see that leap. I do hope we have a Pungo plan. I think it's a great idea. I think it's one that we should do. Dorothy Wood: Are there any questions for Mr. Bourdon? Barry Knight: I have some. =- Dorothy Wood: Barry. Item #16 & 17 HAC Properties, LLC. Page 9 Barry Knight: Eddie, when you say that the plan is a little bit different from this picture that you have now, it is designed a little bit differently than that. Eddie Bourdon: The elevations. The one you all received this morning is different this one. Barry Knight: I just wanted to ask. Eddie Bourdon: The building is brick front and brick side and not in the back. Dorothy Wood: Thank you. Barry Knight: That's kind of the point I was getting at and we're looking at this and it's a nice color picture. There have been some amenities added to this and if we were to go forward with this I don't know if proffer #2 is still exactly where it is suppose to be. Eddie Bourdon: There are a couple of different ways you can at that. I'm going to give these and I forgot. I gave you Doug Davis letter. This is Mel Stences letter. Doug's was on wetlands. This is on the flood plain. We got two issues. We got a rezoning and we got a Conditional Use Permit to answer Barry's question. The elevations and we did revise those elevations based on the concerns. And, the Conditional Use Permit you can certainly recommend the elevations that we submitted, the revised elevations. The proffer has however, the original elevations. One means would be to determine that they are substantially the same they're just improved. Nothing really changes except that we added some architecture improvements. And, we will be glad to if that's not acceptable from the Planning Director's perspective, we'll be glad to ask City Council to defer for 2 weeks and just change the elevation reference in the proffer to these elevations. But, again, all we done was we're just adding. We're not changing the substance of it we're just adding some high betterments. But there are a couple of different ways to do that. That would be the way we would prefer to go is to make those changes just changing a date in that particular proffer to reference the date of revised elevation. Possibly Mr. Scott can agree that they're substantially the same. But I just assume we clarify it. Barry Knight: 1'd like clarity on that if you could. Dorothy Wood: Mr. Scott. Robert Scott: Well, I think the drawings that were seeing today compare to what we originally had is a step in the right direction. But, I would say that we need better betterments. Dorothy Wood: I'm sorry. What? = Robert Scott: Better betterments. I applaud their efforts. We're heading in the right direction. I think we have some ideas that are not major changes but they're substantial Item #16 & 17 HAC Properties, LLC. Page 10 in their impact in a positive way. I don't think their particularly expensive and it could make the project look a whole lot better. I will say if we can do those things we could probably show how in the absence of the Pungo plan we can still move forward with a degree of confidence that we're not precluding any possibilities for the future. Sure, in an ideal world we would love to have that study and show that this isn't in conflict with it. In all probability, some decision will have to be made on this property before any study is in place. 1 think we can suggest some adjustments to this plan in addition to what's already been put forward and are not particularly burdensome. I have high positive impact on the way this thing appeared and it could make it pretty compatible we hope with what hope to see and what we will see, which by the way would involve preservation of some of those older buildings that they're not taking them down for the future. 1 think with that we have reason to look at a very rosy future for this part ofthe City. Dorothy Wood: Thanks Bob. Eddie, if the Planning Commission would go and approve this today would your clients be willing to meet with the staffbefore you go to City Council? Would you please ask them? Eddie Bourdon: I'll go ask them. Dorothy Wood: Thank you sir. Are there any other questions? Eugene Crabtree: Eddie, I got one question. You said there 57 units that are going to built there. Eddie Bourdon: I count 58-60. Eugene Crabtree: I'm just looking at the elevations that we have here. Do you know what the size of the larger units? What the size of the smaller units are just for curiosity sake for than anything else? Eddie Bourdon: 20 x 40 of the larger so it's the two comers. They actually may change. Those are the largest. Eugene Crabtree: Those smaller ones I presume are something like lOx 20? Eddie Bourdon: Yes sir. Eugene Crabtree: Okay. Those are popular size units all over the City. Eddie Bourdon: Yes sir. =- Dorothy Wood: Are there any other questions? Thank you Mr. Bourdon. Thank you Mr. Hansen and Ms. Monroe for coming down also. We appreciate it. Is there any discussion? Mr. Horsley? Item #16 & 17 HAC Properties, LLC. Page 11 Donald Horsley: To be honest, I don't have a problem with the use. I think the applicant has shown a willingness to get with staff between now and City Council and take care of some ofthese matters that have arisen today about the style of the building. So, I've been on that property many times. I've walked many miles on that property. It hasn't been used for agriculture for many years other than that before it was livestock for the last 6 or 7 years. I think it would be a good use for the property because I don't really see any major architectural building being put on this piece of property. It's just not conducive for it. You can't develop anymore. It's woodland and it won't be disturbed. The City owns property to the south of it and I don't really see a problem with the use if we can just get the architectural part of this building straightened out. I think it will set a tone for the plan that Mr. Hansen is longing for Pungo. I think it will give him some guidelines to start with anyway. Dorothy Wood: I think Mr. Hansen has a good idea and that maybe we should. I don't know if Planning can do this but have a study of Pungo. May be some of the Planning Commissioners for that area of the City and some of the stakeholders? Robert Scott: We've loved to. It's a matter and as we go around the City so many groups want but it is something that has been talked about for sometime. And, the opportunity won't be here forever. We do appreciate the urgency of it. Dorothy Wood: Thank you. Robert Scott: Hopefully, if we can get one or two of these things that are on our plate off, we'll forward directions like this. Dorothy Wood: I'm sure Mr. Hansen will be glad to help you. Mr. Culpepper. Mr. Ripley? Ronald Ripley: I agree with Don and I think the use is okay. I had an opportunity to talk with the applicant and he seems really responsive to one to accommodate because he's looking for a successful venture. It seems to be complimentary to what's in fÌont. The mini-storage part of it and I think, Gene was kind of eluding to this, and it really is very small in comparison to mini-storages that you see in the area. I mean you might see 50, 60, 70, 80,000 square foot mini-storages and this was about 15,000. So, proportionally it is probably appropriate. It's a very passive use I think. Ifwe had a lot of coming and going I wouldn't think going on here. I like Don, if the applicant and staff can work a little bit further on the elevations, I think we're good to go. Dorothy Wood: Thank you Mr. Ripley. Mr. Miller. Robert Miller: Jan, did you want to speak first? - Dorothy Wood: I'm sorry. Item #16 & 17 HAC Properties, L.L.C. Page 12 Janice Anderson: Mr. Horsley, he actually covered everything so I'm good. Robert Miller: Okay good. I didn't want you to say anything anyway. No one can be quite as passionate about this area as I think Gene can. I know of his love not only of his place, but the ambiance of that whole area. There is something about Pungo and I'm looking and I'm thinking about the Pungo festival coming up soon and the parade. I have the privilege of being in that parade a lot oftimes. It's the most unique parade in the most unique surroundings I can describe my group of special Olympians. We don't tend to march in parades. I try to teach them that once but they're much smarter than I am and we wander through parades. This is the perfect parade to wander through because people wander through you will you're wandering through the parade. Every time I'm in Pungo and in that you think that we're unique this place has got something, particular place that word really can't describe. We got a lot of great parts of our city, very unique places. This is one of those places that deserves not only to be endorsed but somehow sustained and not improved by the sense of newness but somehow to retain all the great characteristics that are there right now. This development that Mr. Culpepper has proposed, I think anywhere else in our City with the architectural improvements that Bob is implying and staff will be able to work with Mr. Culpepper and obtain would be a very welcome addition to other parts of our City. I think there is needed here. I don't know of the final outcome of what Gene's vision would be for this location or mine even. But I do think that this would fit in the ultimate scheme of things. That is something that the community needs in that area. And, again in the long run of what happens in Pungo, I don't think it will take away fi:om what is there. I think it does set in some ways some new nice qualities to that area. I wouldn't say that everything has to be new like this again, I hope I don't contradict myself but that there wonld be someway to sustain what is already there to endorse it and that this would be I think a positive addition to that community with the improvements to the architecture. But, I will continue to think of how Virginia Beach vision and others can work to may be supplement the burden of Planning Department and others to try to find a way to look at places like this and say hey, how can we continue to have this be a place that is truly a characteristic. I mean, I want my children and my grandchildren to be able to come and wander through the Pungo festival parade and come down there and see all the great things that go on in that area. Dorothy Wood: Is that in the form of a motion? Robert Miller: Certainly. Barry Knight: Second. Dorothy Wood: I think he seconded Mr. Miller's motion.

Too soon there will be nothing left of vernacular, in-scale architecture- VA Beach is rapidly becoming known for it's lack of planning and utter disregard for charm and ambiance. Please don't allow a mini-storage to be erected in Pungo. To further give strength to my argument, please read Richard Florida's best selling book, Attractina the Creative Class. There is so much that could be done well to that beautiful landscape. Do it riaht- and let the rest of VA Beach look on with envy as people vie to come to visit and live in an area that's been done well with an eye to outstanding design, taste and beauty. Talk to the people who are doing East Beach in Norfolk and ask about their waiting list. Now picture that area and their waiting list had they opted for trash instead. Thank you.

Pungo is the Beach's last legacy for showing a rural atmosphere and having the potential for designing a unique area. Mini-warehouses are all over the city, and it seems that more could be easily added in other industrial zones that do not have the quaint, rural feel like Pungo.

I have lived in this community since 1976 and have sadly watched as the charm has been sold off to the highest bidder. If only someone would have had a better vision when the old Brock's Grocery was replaced with the Red Barn or the strip mall came to town! I still haven't figured out how Pungo Off Road managed to sneak into the center of our community. They seemed to build on to the old gas station without a building permit (hum...wonder whose palm they greased) & there is forever a lot full of cars stacked bumper to bumper. It looks like a used car lot! But it is never too late to put a stop to this. So please, do something to stop this junk from overrunning our charming, historic community! Stretch your imagination and picture something original that will bring tourists to Pungo to shop. I will gladly serve on any committee formed to save this quaint part of our city.

I am writing in regards to the re-zoning of areas in the Immediate area of Downtown Pungo form Ag-2 to 6-2 for the building of a mini-storage fadilly. I am against this type of land use in this particular location. Pungo is as precious as an uncut diamond. It can become sparkling and beautiful and extremely valuable or it can be shattered with the first cut. never to realize Irs potential. I see Pungo as an upscale village of spedalty retailers and charming restaurants nestled in the transitional area as a gateway to horse farms and lush farmland- I see successful village plans elsewhere In the country. but not in VIrginia Beach where there is no lack of mini-storage fadlities behind almost ""ery 7-11. I volunteer to partidpate if a committee is estabiished to study and enact such a village concept. Sincerely.
