However, there are many sections of the City Code that have conflicting dates defining the resort season, which makes enforcement of each specific City Code section difficult and confusing for enforcement officials. Furthermore, over the past several resort seasons, two major developments have occurred, including the extension of the resort season and expansion of the beach. Recent occupancy studies have shown that more than 50% of all tourists visit the City during the months of September to May. This trend indicates the traditional "shoulder " seasons are becoming more popular for vacation travel, and the City is heading toward a more year- round travel destination. Operation Big Beach has also expanded the shoreline to a total of 300 feet. The expanded beach allows more visitors to enjoy normal beach activities such as sun bathing, swimming, throwing Frisbees and ball playing. ■ Considerations: Since the "shoulder" seasons are expanding and there is more room on the beach for traditional beach activities, the definition of resort season should be changed to May 1 to September 30. As a result, several code provisions that were enacted as public safety measure to restrict or limit use of the beach and resort area amenities need to be amended to reflect these new trends, as well as unifying the definition of resort season in the separate City Code sections. Provisions relating to playing ball and throwing Frisbees need to be relaxed, while provisions regulating fishing, animals on the beach, and launching recreational vehicles need to be tightened to reflect the expanded resort season. ■ Public Information: In March 2004, this issue was reviewed with the Resort Advisory Commission and recommended to City Council for the following season. A comment was received by a resident concerned about the impact on residents with a shorter season in which dogs are allowed on the beach and asking for installation of a dog park. Residents' concerns that they do not want to be restricted for two additional months from having their dogs on the beach are understood. This item was deferred on several occasions to address these concerns. At this time, a final solution has not been found for providing a dog park in the area. However, staff would like to move forward with the other revisions. Therefore, the section of the ordinance pertaining to dogs on the beach is not being included in these revisions. ■ Alternatives: Create a new definition of resort season or not adopt ordinance. ■ Recommendations: Approve ordinance. ■ Attachments: Ordinance. Recommended Action: Approval of Ordinance Submitting DepartmenVAgency: Convention and Visitors Bureau City Manager: 1 AN ORDINANCE TO AMEND THE CITY CODE TO DEFINE 2 THE TERM "RESORT SEASON" AND INCORPORATE THE 3 TERM IN CERTAIN ORDINANCES AND TO AMEND 4 PROVISIONS OF THE CITY CODE PERTAINING TO 5 PROHIBITED BEACH ACTIVITIES DURING THE RESORT 6 SEASON 7 8 SECTIONS AMENDED: City Code Sections 1-2, 6-3, 9 6-30, 6-114 and 31-28 10 11 12 BE IT ORDAINED BY THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF VIRGINIA 13 BEACH, VIRGINIA: 14 15 That Sections 1-2, 6-3, 6-30, 6-114 and 31-28 of the City Code 16 are hereby amended and reordained, to read as follows: 17 Sec. 1-2.

Since then, additional revisions to the Regulations have been made as the cafes have continued to evolve and grow as an amenity in the Resort Area. Last summer, a pilot program to permit open air cafes between 15th and 24th streets, under strict conditions, was initiated. This item was deferred on February 8th and 22"d, and on March 1st ■ Considerations: The proposed revisions to the Regulations would delete the current prohibition on outdoor cafes on Atlantic Avenue between 15th and 24th Streets, and establish guidelines for cafes to be permitted to operate in this area. These revisions retain the strict operating rules established in the pilot program. The RAC has endorsed this proposal, as well as the proposed regulations. The proposed ordinance to approve the Regulations also establishes criminal penalties for cafe owners or operators who do not comply with orders closing cafes or revoking cafe franchise agreements. ■ Public Information: This item will be publicized as part of the City Council's agenda ■ Recommendations: Approval of Ordinance ■ Attachments: Ordinance Proposed Regulations Recommended Action: Approval Submitting Depart AeoAge cy: Vir i 'a Beach Convention and Visitors Bureau City Manager:H:\PA\GG\ORDRES\AR opg 1 AN ORDINANCE TO AMEND THE CITY'S 2 OPEN AIR CAFE REGULATIONS TO 3 AUTHORIZE ATLANTIC AVENUE SIDEWALK 4 CAFES BETWEEN 15TH AND 24TH STREETS 5 AND ESTABLISH CRIMINAL PENALTIES 6 FOR THE FAILURE TO COMPLY WITH 7 ORDERS CLOSING OR REVOKING THE 8 FRANCHISES FOR SUCH CAFES 9 10 WHEREAS, by resolution adopted November 15, 1985, City 11 Council authorized the City Manger to promulgate Open Air Cafe 12 Regulations, which have been amended, from time to time, to 13 address concerns and issues that have arisen during the 14 operation of these cafes; 15 WHEREAS, these Regulations have, to date, prohibited 16 sidewalk cafes on Atlantic Avenue between 15th and 24th Streets; 17 WHEREAS, a pilot program permitting sidewalks cafes in 18 this area was conducted during the summer of 2004; and 19 WHEREAS, after the success of this pilot program, a 20 modification to the Regulations that would permit sidewalk cafes 21 on Atlantic Avenue between 15th and 24th Streets has been 22 proposed. 23 NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT ORDAINED BY THE COUNCIL OF THE 24 CITY OF VIRGINIA BEACH, VIRGINIA: 25 1.

W. 4t''011 r CITY OF VIRGINIA BEACH AGENDA ITEM ITEM: An Ordinance to Transfer $2,000,000 from the Debt Service Fund and $9,138 From the General Fund's Reserve For Contingencies -Regular to Capital Project #3-229, "Police Training Facility," and to the Police Department's FY 2004-05 Operating Budget to Fund Training Services and to Authorize the City Manager to Enter Into a Services Contract With Blackwater Lodge and Training Center, Inc. MEETING DATE: March 8, 2005 ■ Background: In November 2002, the Virginia Beach Police Department ("VBPD") voluntarily suspended firearms training at its Firearms Training Facility at Creeds due to complaints from neighboring residents. In February 2003, City Council approved initial funding of $600,000 to the VBPD in conjunction with Public Works, to conduct a site selection study to determine where the training needs for the VBPD could be met. This study identified four properties in Virginia Beach or surrounding areas and one alternative method that would meet the training needs of the VBPD. The alternative method was an agreement with a third party to provide a training facility or training services. In order to assess the feasibility of the alternative method, a RFP was issued, for which Blackwater Lodge and Training Center, Inc., ("Blackwater") was the only respondent. The proposal submitted by the Blackwater represented the best solution to meet the VBPD training needs and will provide a workable compromise. Additionally, the study recommended improvements be made to the existing vehicle driving track at the Creeds Air Field Site and the construction of a new administration building and other various site improvements to protect the long term training viability of the VBPD. The project will also provide a training location for the Sheriff's Department, the Fire Department, and Emergency Medical Services. In addition, acquisition of available properties is recommended to secure a noise buffer around the site. The VBPD has been "borrowing" range time from other local departments and renting ranges from Blackwater, but it has not been able to provide a sufficient level of firearms training for officers under this arrangement. At Council's direction, the City has negotiated a services contract with Blackwater to provide firearms training services; which includes "live" firearms range time, and classroom and office space. A total of $2,009,138 is needed and will be allocated as follows: $516,000 as a deposit to contract services at the Blackwater Lodge and Training Center; $1,360,000 will be used to acquire available land as a noise buffer and for design of an administration building, driving track, and firearms simulation and classroom training building at the Creeds Air Field site; $133,138 will be allocated as a partial annual contract payment to Blackwater for the period beginning April 2005 through June 2005. Funding in the Police Department's FY 2005-06 Operating Budget for the contract payment and maintenance will be $457,560 and FY 2006-07 it will include $471,287. ■ Considerations: The FY 2004-05 Operating Budget included $2,000,000 in the Debt Service Fund for the anticipated payments associated with this project. Funds must be transferred from the Debt Service Fund, with $9,138 from the Reserve for Contingencies — Regular, to Capital Project #3-229 "Police Training Facility" and the Police Department's FY 2004-05 Operating Budget. A total of $3,000,000, which will fund construction of an administrative building, driving track, and firearms simulation and classroom training building at the Creeds Air Field site, will be included in the FY 2005-06 Capital Improvement Project. ■ Public Information: A public comment period was held on March 1, 2005, and additional public information will be provided through the normal process of publicizing the Council Agenda. ■ Alternatives: The only viable alternative is to upgrade the Creeds facility. This option, however, would result in a firearms range that, by design, would be very restrictive and result in less effective training for our police officers. ■ Recommendations: It is recommended that all "live" firearms training be relocated to the Blackwater Lodge and Training Center in Moyock, NC and to develop the Creeds site into a driving track, firearms simulation and classroom training facility. Additionally, it is recommended that the City acquire available properties adjacent to the Creeds site that fall into a noise buffer zone, based upon federal (i.e., Department of Defense) standards. ■ Attachments: Ordinance; Summary of Terms Recommended Action: Approval Submitting Department/Agency: Police Department City Manager: V I r 1 AN ORDINANCE TO TRANSFER $2,000,000 FROM THE 2 DEBT SERVICE FUND AND $9,138 FROM RESERVE FOR 3 CONTINGENCIES -REGULAR TO CAPITAL PROJECT #3- 4 229, "POLICE TRAINING FACILITY," AND TO THE 5 POLICE DEPARTMENT'S FY 2004-05 OPERATING 6 BUDGET TO FUND SERVICES AT THE BLACKWATER 7 LODGE AND TRAINING CENTER AND TO AUTHORIZE THE 8 CITY MANAGER TO ENTER INTO A SERVICES CONTRACT 9 WITH BLACKWATER LODGE AND TRAINING CENTER, 10 INC. 11 WHEREAS, the City Council approved a site selection study in 12 2003 to determine how firearm training needs for the Police 13 Department could be met; 14 WHEREAS, the study identified the possibility of an agreement 15 with a third party to provide training services, and an RFP was 16 issued to determine the feasibility of such an arrangement; 17 WHEREAS, Blackwater Lodge and Training Center, Inc., 18 ("Blackwater") submitted a response that has been determined by 19 City staff to provide the best solution for the Police Department's 20 firearm training needs; and 21 WHEREAS, under this proposal, a driving track, and a firearms 22 simulation and classroom training facility will be located at the 23 Creeds Air Field site, and live firearms training will be conducted 24 at Blackwater facilities located in Moyock, North Carolina under a 25 service contract with Blackwater. 26 NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT ORDAINED BY THE COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF 27 VIRGINIA BEACH, VIRGINIA: 28 1.

A source of beach replenishment sand is available as a by-product of periodic maintenance dredging of Lynnhaven Inlet by the Corps of Engineers. A group of property owners has expressed an interest in dedicating Public Beach Easements to establish a documented public interest in the beach adjacent to their properties. However, there are additional properties where dedications will be necessary to establish a uniform public interest along the entire beach. The 2001 Beach Management Plan placed a high priority on resolution of ownership issues in this beach, and recommended a program of beach replenishment utilizing Lynnhaven Inlet sand. ■ Considerations: Acceptance of public beach easements will likely create expectations for enhanced stewardship, including beach replenishment. A relatively low cost program can be developed to address beach replenishment using sand dredged from Lynnhaven Inlet. ■ Public Information: The Beaches and Waterways Advisory Commission conducted numerous public meetings in which this topic was discussed; their Beach Management Plan was formally presented to City Council, and the Council adopted the plan by resolution. ■ Alternatives: Resolving the public's real estate interest in Cape Henry Beach is a policy objective; alternative means for accomplishing this objective could involve eminent domain or other legal processes, but are not considered desirable. ■ Recommendations: Adopt resolution. ■ Attachments: Resolution; November Memorandum from Dean Block.

That the City Council declares that it desires to establish the public interest 36 in Cape Henry Beach from First Landing State Park to the Lynnhaven Inlet. 37 2. That the City Manager is authorized to accept, on behalf of the city, public 38 beach easements from those beachfront owners who have previously stated a desire to dedicate 39 such easements on Cape Henry Beach. Easement dedications shall be approved as to legal form 40 by the City Attorney prior to acceptance by the City Manager. 41 3. That the City Manager is directed to contact other waterfront property 42 owners on Cape Henry Beach for the purpose of requesting voluntary dedication of public beach 43 easements, and to accept such dedications on behalf of the City, subject to approval as to legal 44 form by the City Attorney. 45 M 2 47 4. That the City Manager is directed to request the Army Corps of Engineers 48 to accept the publicly owned portions of Cape Henry Beach as a dredged material placement area 49 for the Lynnhaven Inlet maintenance dredging project, and to implement a program to share the 50 dredged sand between Ocean Park Beach and Cape Henry Beach. 51 52 Adopted by the Council of the City of Virginia Beach, Virginia, on the 53 day of , 2005.

Spore, City Manager FROM: E. D. Block, Director of Publi"Qokl� SUBJECT: Cape Henry Beach VBgovcom MUNICIPAL CENTER BUILDING 2 ROOM 340 2405 COURTHOUSE DRIVE VIRGINIA BEACH, VA 23456-9031 As an on -going issue and follow-up to City Council's June 2001 adoption of the Beach Management Plan, we have explored methods of resolving the beach ownership issue and addressing erosion along Cape Henry Beach — from Lynnhaven Inlet east to our boundary with First Landing State Park. The Beach Management Plan places a priority on resolving beach ownership in this area, and recommended the use of a portion of the sand dredged from Lynnhaven Inlet for replenishment and maintenance of the beach. We believe these objectives can be achieved, to a degree, and are prepared to recommend an implementation plan. However, as with any new program or expansion there are several specific considerations and broad policy issues that need to be addressed. Fortunately, the Beach Management Plan focused on the issues relevant to this topic and provides a policy frame work for making this recommendation. This memorandum is to outline those considerations and a potential implementation plan. The principle policy issue is the question of public domain over our shorelines. After many public meetings, deliberation and formal adoption, the Beach Management Plan places the highest priority on resolving claims of private ownership of our beaches. While we are sensitive to the rights of those property owners with interest in the beach, real or perceived, our policy is to create a documented public interest in all of our beaches for their recreational, economic and storm protection benefits to the community. The sandy beach along Cape Henry consists of a variety of real estate interests. While ,+c,„ d h _ "Lilleentire sail beach was once claimed as private, se- l -bli^ C�^ r% f VCra) �uvlly re VlGallon easements and rights of way have been dedicated, creating a checker -board pattern of public rights. An attached map of Cape Henry Beach indicates the current status of James K. Spore, City Manager Cape Henry Beach November 23, 2004 Page 2 public interest along this beach. A group of properties in the central portion of the beach (shown on the map) have stated a willingness to dedicate public beach easements over their platted land, seaward of their improvements. Erosion is not generally severe along Cape Henry Beach, however these 'willing to dedicate' properties are located in an area where erosion has created the need for beach restoration and replenishment. While our policy is to obtain a documented public interest in the beach, the decision to accept the offered easements must be made with the understanding that there will be an expectation for the City to address erosion and maintain the beach. Fortunately, in this case a source of sand is available, subject to policy review and modification. The federal navigation project for Lynnhaven Inlet has produced hundreds of thousands of cubic yards of beach quality sand over its history. The City's role in the inlet maintenance project, as a local sponsor in a formal agreement with the Corps of Engineers, is to provide adequate disposal areas for the material dredged from the channel and to pay the costs associated with the disposal area preparation and restoration. Aside from the significant benefit of inlet maintenance by the federal government, the City is granted ownership of the sand removed from the inlet, and nearly all of the sand dredged from the inlet has been used in our beach restoration and maintenance programs. The current arrangement for managing the sand dredged from Lynnhaven Inlet is to place the entire volume on Ocean Park Beach. The 'disposal area', or beach replenishment area, is the 6,400-foot long portion of the bay shoreline on the west side of the inlet, extending from the inlet to the west side of Aires on the Bay — an area clearly documented as public beach. The program for managing and making use of the dredged sand from Lynnhaven Inlet evolved over a number of years, and it is important to note that the current arrangement has only been in place since 2001. We anticipate the need to modify the program again as the placement of the entire volume of sand dredged from the inlet on Ocean Park Beach does not appear to be sustainable. By way of brief program history, sand removed from the inlet during the initial years of the project (1960's) was placed both on Ocean Park Beach and, by use agreement, on private property fronting Pleasure House Creek. Starting in the 1970's, the majority of the sand was placed in the then newly acquired "Lynnhaven Inlet Sand Stockpile", the site of the new boat ramp and beach use facility. The material placed in the "stockpile", by Council policy, was truck -hauled to the Resort Beach as source material for the annual beach replenishment project at the oceanfront. A small portion of the sand was periodically placed on Ocean Park Beach to check erosion during this period. After nearly two decades of a his practice, during the late ! 908 0 s, erosion became significant along Ocean Park Beach — the beach was contributing more sand to the inlet by erosion than was being returned in beach replenishment. James K. Spore, City Manager Cape Henry Beach November 23, 2004 Page 3 While the practice of using Lynnhaven Inlet sand as a source for the Resort Beach replenishment program continued until the construction of "Big Beach" in 2001, the distribution of sand between Ocean Park Beach and the stockpile was adjusted in the early 1990's to better match the natural erosion in an attempt to stabilize Ocean Park Beach. The effort was a success; erosion at Ocean Park Beach has essentially been kept in check. The Resort Beach replenishment program was completely revised in 2001. Sand for the Resort Beach now is mined from offshore, eliminating the need to use sand from the Lynnhaven Inlet system. The 2001 Lynnhaven Inlet dredging project placed all sand removed from the inlet on Ocean Park Beach. Another cycle of dredging is anticipated for this winter, February -March 2005. Again, the entire volume of sand removed from the inlet will be placed on Ocean Park Beach — at this point in time it is our only viable option. In round numbers, representing long-term averages, the inlet shoals at a rate of about 45,000 cubic yards per year. The primary source of the shoaling sand is the adjacent beaches. The material is dredged once every three to four years, generating a volume of 150,000 to 200,000 cubic yards per cycle of dredging. Ocean Park Beach has been surveyed and studied with respect to erosion for over 20 years, and documented to erode at a rate of about 30,000 cubic yards per year, primarily into the inlet. While volumes in excess of the erosion rate can be placed of Ocean Park Beach for some period of time, reversing the natural damage done over the years and restoring the beach to a wider and higher dimension, at some point we will realistically face a circumstance of having too much sand on Ocean Park. The primary concern would be impacts to the inlet — new shoaling patterns would form, the inlet could try to migrate easterly, and dredging may be required more frequently to maintain the channel at its current location. With the inlet shoaling at about 45,000 cubic yards per year, and Ocean Park Beach eroding at 30,000 cubic yards per year, it seems apparent that the beaches to the east, Cape Henry Beach, erode and contribute to shoaling at the rate of approximately 15,000 cubic yards per year. Fewer erosion studies have been performed on Cape Henry Beach, due to its relatively low net erosion rate. However, the studies that have been performed do indicate a relatively small net loss of sand, and the deduced erosion rate of 15,000 cubic yards per year appears to be reasonable. It is for these reasons that the Beaches and Waterways Advisory Commission recommended a program of distributing the sand between the two beaches. The -principle .Jt �• 4.' a � V � , �� incijiiv`� impediment I�IeUlment to accomplishing 'this goal, however, has been the claim nT private ownership of portions of Cape Henry Beach. While public interest in the beach is not uniform and complete throughout this section of shoreline, we feel that the existing James K. Spore, City Manager Cape Henry Beach November 23, 2004 Page 4 public beach areas combined with the easements currently being offered are large enough public beach segments to implement the sand distribution plan. It would, of course, be more desirable and consistent with our policy to establish public interest along the entirely of Cape Henry Beach. The program should be structured toward achieving this objective by enabling staff to seek additional voluntary easement dedications to fill the gaps in public beach interest. The distribution of inlet sand could be accomplished a number of ways, by alternating the use of either beach as the inlet disposal area, or using both during the same dredging cycle. The least costly solution would be to alternate uses, avoiding the set-up costs for both beaches during the same contract. The condition of the beaches antecedent to the dredging cycle should be the chief consideration in the planning. Funding is another major policy issue. If this were a beach replenishment project proposal, and if the costs were significant, the example that City Council set with a Special Service District in Sandbridge may be applicable. However, this proposal is inlet maintenance: sand must be removed from the inlet, we have a need for a sustainable program to 'dispose' of the dredged sand. The incremental costs for placing the sand on Cape Henry Beach, as opposed to the current plan of placing it on Ocean Park Beach are essentially zero — the costs are basically the same to put the sand on either the eastern or western adjacent beach. The fact that we cannot indefinitely place the material on the western beach justifies any marginal cost increase. Nevertheless, we do not expect that this proposal would significantly affect our typical inlet project cost -share, and for that reason we do not see funding as an issue. Based on these considerations, it does appear that the proposal merits consideration. I recommend that City Council be asked to consider adopting a resolution authorizing the acceptance of the offered easements and the implementation of a program for distributing dredged sand from Lynnhaven Inlet between Cape Henry and Ocean Park Beaches. Further, to address a primary policy consideration, I recommend that the proposed resolution authorizes staff to approach the bay front property owners who have not dedicated a public beach easement and seek voluntary dedications. I would be pleased to discuss this at your convenience or provide any further information you may need. With your concurrence, our staff will work with the City Attorney's Office to develop the resolution for Council's consideration.

Property is located at 6476 Knotts Island Road (GPIN 23379182570000). DISTRICT 7 — PRINCESS ANNE IN Considerations: The proposed plan was being reviewed by Development Services Center (DSC) as a Single Family Site Plan. The DSC advised the applicants that documentation was required to establish the parcel as a legal subdivision. The subject parcel was created by a two lot subdivision plat prepared by the Princess Anne County Surveyor on July 31, 1953. The plat was part of a Deed of Bargain and Sale recorded on December 29, 1953, in Deed Book 347, Page 394. The Princess Anne County Subdivision Ordinance was adopted September 28, 1953, three months prior to the recording of the deed. Thus, the lot is not considered legally recorded (since it was established by deed rather than by the ordinance). Thus, a subdivision variance is necessary. Located in the AG-1 Agricultural District, the existing lot is 0.59 acres and does not have frontage on a public right-of-way. The parcel has access via a private ingress -egress easement (driveway). Staff's evaluation of this request reveals the proposal, through the submitted materials, does provide evidence of a hardship justifying the granting of a variance to the requirements of the Subdivision Ordinance. The problem involved is not of so general or recurring a nature as to make reasonably practicable the formulation of general regulations to be adopted as an amendment to the ordinance. Additionally, the Princess Anne County Zoning Ordinance indicated two types of lots in the Agricultural zoned areas. A-U Agricultural Unrestricted possessed no minimum lot size or width and A-R Agricultural Restricted possessed a minimum area of 10,000 square feet and a minimum width of 100 feet. During that time, lots the size of the applicants were not considered unusual and a few neighboring homes in the area are situated on lots close in size and configuration to the applicants. Ronald Lee and Penny Michele Cason Page 2 of 2 The Planning Commission placed this item on the consent agenda because they viewed it as a "housekeeping" issue of creating a legal lot, there was no opposition, and staff recommended approval. ■ Recommendations: The Planning Commission passed a motion by a recorded vote of 11-0 to approve this request with the following condition: The property shall be substantially configured as shown on the plat entitled; "Site Plan Parcel Designated C.T.

Strict application of the ordinance would produce undue hardship. B. The authorization of the variance will not be of substantial detriment to adjacent property, and the character of the neighborhood will not be adversely affected. C. The problem involved is not of so general or recurring a nature as to make reasonably practicable the formulation of general regulations to be adopted as an amendment to the ordinance. D. The hardship is created by the physical character of the property, including dimensions and topography, or by other extraordinary situation or condition of such property, or by the use or development of property RONALD LEE AND PENNY MI immediately adjacent thereto. Personal or self-inflicted hardship shall not be considered as grounds for the issuance of a variance. E. The hardship is created by the requirements of the zoning district in which the property is located at the time the variance is authorized whenever such variance pertains to provisions of the Zoning Ordinance incorporated by reference in this ordinance.

This is Ronald Lee Cason and Penny Michele Cason. This is an appeal to the Decisions of Administrative Officers in regard to certain elements of the Subdivision Ordinance, Subdivision of Ronald Lee Cason and Penny Michele Cason. The property is located at 6476 Knotts Island Road in the Princess Anne District and there is one condition. Eddie Bourdon: Thank you Mr. Vice Chair. For the record, Eddie Bourdon, a Virginia Beach attorney representing Mr. & Mrs. Cason, who are here this afternoon, and are in complete accord with the one condition. Again, we appreciate it very much being on the consent agenda. Thank you. William Din: Thank you. Is there any objection to placing this on consent? If not, Mr. Knight will talk about this issue. Barry Knight: This is at the north end of Knotts Island. Believe it or not there is some land that is in the City of Virginia Beach in the north end. This lot was created in 1953. I wasn't around at that time. Anyway, it is about three months to late. It is basically a housekeeping issue. Mr. & Mrs. Cason have lived in Knotts Island all of their life. I see their neighbors. I know Mr. Buster Brumley and he is sitting in here today. So, it just fits with the neighborhood. It is more of a housekeeping issue so we put it on the consent agenda. William Din: Thank you Mr. Knight. The consent agenda item that I have for approval is Item #11, Ronald Lee Cason and Penny Michele Cason, an Appeal of Certain Elements of the Subdivision Ordinance on property located at 6476 Knotts Island Road in the Princess Anne District and it has one condition.

The Comprehensive Plan designates this site as being part of Strategic Growth Area 12 — North Princess Anne Commons Area, suitable academic institutions, medical center, recreation opportunities, and entertainment venues consistent with the policies of the Comprehensive Plan. DISTRICT 7 — PRINCESS ANNE b) An Ordinance upon Application of Sentara Healthcare for a Conditional Use Permit for a hospital, athletic club, eating and drinking establishments, sale of convenience goods and personal services other than those permitted as principal uses and hair care centers, including barber shops and beauty salons on property located on the south side of Princess Anne Road, 422.87 feet east of Concert Drive and on the east side of Concert Drive, 355.06 feet south of Princess Anne Road (GPIN 14856140280000 — part of). DISTRICT 7 — PRINCESS ANNE ■ Considerations: There are two distinct requests with this proposal. The first request is a restatement of a Conditional Use Permit approved by the City Council in 2002. The 2002 Use Permit allowed development of this site for a medical campus (hospital), athletic club and related uses such as offices and shops normally associated with medical facilities. Since 2002, the applicant's overall concept for the medical campus has become much more defined, necessitating revisions to the site plan. Thus, a revised site plan is proposed that maintains the spirit of the original concept but provides a 'village style' layout rather than the `college campus style' layout of the 2002 plan. The changes are described in the attached staff report. Sentara Healthcare Page 2 of 4 The second request is related to an intent to encourage visitors and employees to stay on -site to obtain goods and services. The applciant is requesting a Conditional Change of Zoning for 4.3 acres of the northern corner of the site (at the intersection of Princess Anne Road and Concert Drive). The change of zoning, from the Conditional 0-2 Office approved in 2002 to a Conditional B-2 Business, will allow this portion of the complex to be developed with two self - standing 9,000 square foot restaurants. The restaurants are intended to better serve the patient population, visitors, and employees of the Princess Anne Commons Health Campus. The revisions to the plan for the Princess Anne Commons Health Campus provide a desired improvement over the 2002 plan and are more consistent with the recommendations of the Comprehensive Plan. The appearance of the buildings will maintain the quality level provided for in 2002, and Proffer 7 requires the overall architectural, site, and landscape design of the site be governed by the Design Guidelines for Princess Anne Commons. The Guidelines will act as the "development criteria" for this development. Architectural, site, and landscape plans for each component of the development will be submitted to the Director of Planning to ensure consistency of the design with the Design Guidelines. The Planning Commission placed these items on the consent agenda because the revisions to the 2002 plan are viewed as an improvement, there was no opposition, and staff recommended approval. ■ Recommendations: The Planning Commission passed a motion by a recorded vote of 10-0 with 1 abstention to approve the requests as proffered and with the following conditions: The site shall be developed for a hospital in the 0-2 zoning district, athletic club in the 0-2 zoning district, eating and drinking establishment in the 0- 2 zoning district, establishments for the sale of convenience goods and personal services establishments other than those permitted as principal uses in the 0-2 zoning district, and hair care centers, including barber shops and beauty salons in the 0-2 zoning district and shall be developed in phases which may occur over a period of several years, substantially in compliance with the site plan entitled "Campus Master Plan — Princess Anne Commons Health Campus" prepared by HDR, Inc. (the "Site Plan"). A campus environment containing a central landscaped common area with adjacent buildings and required parking substantially as depicted on the Site Plan shall be provided as a prominent feature of the development. The building locations, sizes, and configurations may change, provided that the overall campus environment and central landscaped common area remain. A copy of the Site Plan has been exhibited to the City Council and is on file with the Virginia Beach Planning Department. Sentara Healthcare Page 3 of 4 2. The overall architectural, site, and landscape design of the site shall be subject to the Design Guidelines for Princess Anne Commons, in effect as of the date of the approval of this Conditional Use Permit by the City Council, which Guidelines are on file with the Planning Department of the City of Virginia Beach. The Guidelines shall act as the "development criteria" for this development. Architectural, site, and landscape plans for each component of the development shall be submitted to the Director of Planning or his designee to ensure consistency of the design with the Design Guidelines. 3. The Property shall contain an at -grade pedestrian walkway system connecting Princess Anne Road, Concert Drive and Princess Anne Park to the campus, in addition to other pedestrian routes within the campus. Such pedestrian walkway features shall be developed in phases as each building is constructed. 4. Mechanical equipment located adjacent to any structures on the site shall be screened with appropriate fencing and/or landscaping, and any mechanical equipment located on the top of any structures on the Property shall be enclosed on four sides of screened with appropriately sized parapet walls. 5. All exterior dumpster areas on the site shall be screened utilizing building materials such as brick, pre -cast, or other materials that are compatible with the building materials utilized on the primary structures on the site. 6. The site shall be developed with a common landscape plan, which may be introduced in phases as portions of the site are developed, providing for continuity throughout the site with respect to compatible tree planting, shrubs, and other landscape features. 7. A lighting and/or a photometric diagram plan for review by City staff shall be submitted with any submitted site plan. The lighting plan shall include the height of poles located in the parking lots along with the location of all pole mounted and building mounted lighting fixtures. The plan shall also list the lamp type, wattage and type of fixture. Lighting shall be uniform throughout the parking area, and shall minimize reflection or glare toward properties and streets outside the complex. 8. In addition to the conditional uses designated Condition 1, the following accessory uses may be developed in conjunction with the hospital facility and overall healthcare campus. These accessory uses shall include, but not be limited to: allied health facilities, medical laboratories, helipads/helistops, cafeteria facilities, nursing and other health -related vocational/educational facilities and pharmacy facilities, sale of medical/home health care equipment, sale of diabetes supplies, ophthalmologist/optometrist offices and eyewear sales, sale of nutrition and health supplements, sale of physician fitness equipment, wig shop, dry cleaners, bookstore/newsstand, coffee shop, postal/shipping store, Sentara Healthcare Page 4 of 4 copy center, gift/card shop, baby/infant shop, and bank branch (without a drive-thru). 9. The restricted access of the site to Princess Anne Road shall be limited to emergency vehicles only and shall have a gated entrance to prevent any access by vehicles other than emergency vehicles. 10. In addition to any rights afforded by Section 15.2-2307 of the Code of Virginia, 1950, as amended and consistent with Section 221(g) of the City Zoning Ordinance of the City of Virginia Beach authorizing the City Council to specifically provide activation time periods and procedures uniquely applicable to a Conditional Use Permit in lieu of those otherwise provided in Section 221(g); and given the unique circumstances surrounding the delayed possession of the property upon which this development is proposed, the phasing of its development and the inter- relation of the combined uses shown on the Site Plan, the following shall apply to this Conditional Use Permit: The commencement of the development of any portion of the Conditional Use Permit site for any of the uses set forth in this Conditional Use Permit application and/or contemplated by the Site Plan shall have the effect of fully activating this Conditional Use Permit for all uses permitted hereunder and shall satisfy the requirement of Section 221(g) of the City Zoning Ordinance of the City of Virginia Beach. ■ Attachments: Staff Review Disclosure Statement Planning Commission Minutes Location Map Recommended Action: Staff recommends approval.

The United States Navy has reviewed this request and has no objections. { SummaryProposa There are two distinct requests with this proposal. First, the applicant is requesting an amendment and restatement of a Conditional Use Permit approved by the City Council in 2002. The 2002 Use Permit allowed development of this site for a medical campus (hospital), athletic club and related uses such as offices, shops normally associated with medical facilities. Since 2002, the applicant's overall concept for the medical campus has become much more defined, necessitating revisions to the site plan. Thus, a revised site plan is proposed that maintains the spirit of the original concept but provides a `village style' layout rather than the 'college campus style' layout of the 2002 plan. The main axis of the development is now perpindicular to Princess Anne Road, providing a direct view from Princess Anne Road through the `main street' of the development to the hospital. The `main street' spine is flanked by the main buidlings for the site, which contain medical offices and related uses. The majority of the buildings have ancillary uses normally associated with a hospital on the ground floor of the buildings, providing a pedestrian -oriented streetscape. The intent of the design is to provide `life' to the site and to encourage those who visit and work at the development to stay on the site for their needs rather than driving off -site in their vehicles. The second request is related to this intent to encourage visitors and employees to stay on -site. The applciant is requesting a Conditional Change of Zoning for 4.3 acres of the northern corner of the site (at the intersection of Princess Anne Road and Concert Drive). The change of zoning, from the Conditional 0-2 Office approved in 2002 to a Conditional B-2 Business, will allow this portion of the complex to be developed with two self -standing 9,000 square foot restaurants. The restaurants are intended to better serve the patient population, visitors, and employees of the Princess Anne Commons Health Campus by providing alternatives. r.FComprehensive Plan The Comprehensive Plan designates this site as being part of Strategic Growth Area 12 - North Princess Anne Commons Area, suitable academic institutions, medical center, recreation opportunities, and entertainment venues consistent with the policies of the Comprehensive Plan. The Comprehensive Plan recognizes within its vision for Virginia Beach the need for "institutions and arrangements that address special needs of our citizens" and "a system of amenities that responds to a wide variety of needs and preferences," (Chapter 1, Introduction & General Strategy). The suggested amenities for the proposed hospital facility are in keeping with the Comprehensive Plan policies and vision for the City of Virginia Beach. 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 serve as conditions restricting the use of the property as proposed with this change of zoning. These proffers will apply to the portion of the site proposed for B-2 Business zoning, situated at the southern corner of the intersection of Princess Anne Road and Concert Drive ( - 4.3 acre parcel). The remaining portion of the site (- 51.5 acres) will be governed by the proffers approved with the 2002 rezoning. PROFFER # 1 The Property may be developed for no more than two (2) eating and drinking establishments. No other principal uses shall be permitted on the Property. PROFFER # 2 The location and orientation of the eating and drinking establishments on the Property, together with setbacks and landscaping, shall be subject to the approval of the Planning Director; however, the structures shall be setback a minimum of seventy-five (75) feet from Princess Anne Road. PROFFER # 3 Drive -through facilities shall not be permitted on the Property. PROFFER # 4 No structures on the Property shall exceed one (1) story or thirty-five (35) feet in height. PROFFER # 5 The eating and drinking establishments on the Property shall not be entitled to any free-standing signage located adjacent to Princess Anne Road or Concert Drive. PROFFER # 6 The architectural design and exterior building materials of the eating and drinking establishments on the Property shall be substantially compatible with the architectural design and quality of the exterior building materials of the primary structures located within the Princess Anne Health Campus located directly adjacent to the Property. PROFFER # 7 The overall architectural, site, and landscape design of the site shall be subject to the Design Guidelines for Princess Anne Commons, in effect as of the date of the approval of this Conditional Rezoning application by the City Council, which guidelines are on file with the Planning Department of the City of Virginia Beach. The Guidelines shall act as the "development criteria" for this development. Architectural, site, and landscape plans for each component of the development shall be submitted to the Director of Planning or his designee to ensure consistency of the design with the Design Guidelines. Staff Evaluation of The proffers are acceptable. They ensure that the two Proffers: restaurants to be built on the 4.3 acre parcel will be compatible to the health campus and will be of or a site, landscape, and building design quality exceeding that normally associated with self -standing restaurants. Office: agreement dated November 29, 2004, and found it to be legally sufficient and in acceptable legal form. Staff . r # Staff recommends approval of these requests. The revised site plan maintains the spirit of the original concept but provides a `village style' layout rather than the `college campus style' layout of the 2002 plan. The main axis of the development is now perpindicular to Princess Anne Road, providing a direct view from Princess Anne Road through the `main street' of the development to the hospital. The `main street' spine is flanked by the main buidlings for the site, which contain medical offices and related uses. The majority of the buildings have ancillary uses normally associated with a hospital on the ground floor of the buildings, providing a pedestrian -oriented streetscape. The intent of the design is to provide `life' to the site and to encourage those who visit and work at the development to stay on the site for their needs rather than driving off -site in their vehicles. Staff concludes the revisions to the plan for the Princess Anne Commons Health Campus provide a desired improvement over the 2002 plan and are more consistent with the recommendations of the Comprehensive Plan. The appearance of the buildings will maintain the quality level provided for in 2002, and as Proffer 7 requires the overall architectural, site, and landscape design of the site will be governed by the Design Guidelines for Princess Anne Commons. The Guidelines will act as the "development criteria" for this development. Architectural, site, and landscape plans for each component of the development will be submitted to the Director of Planning to ensure consistency of the design with the Design Guidelines. Staff, therefore, recommends approval of the Conditional Change of Zoning with the submitted proffers and the Conditional Use Permit subject to the conditions below. Conditions 1. The site shall be developed for a hospital in the 0-2 zoning district, athletic club in the 0-2 zoning district, eating and drinking establishment in the 0-2 zoning district, establishments for the sale of convenience goods and personal services establishments other than those permitted as principal uses in the 0-2 zoning district, and hair care centers, including barber shops and beauty salons in the O- 2 zoning district and shall be developed in phases which may occur over a period of several years, substantially in compliance with the site plan entitled "Campus Master Plan — Princess Anne Commons Health Campus" prepared by HDR, Inc. (the "Site Plan"). A campus environment containing a central landscaped common area with adjacent buildings and required parking substantially as depicted on the Site Plan shall be provided as a prominent feature of the development. The building locations, sizes, and configurations may change, provided that the overall campus environment and central landscaped common area remain. A copy of the Site Plan has been exhibited to the City Council and is on file with the Virginia Beach Planning Department. 2. The overall architectural, site, and landscape design of the site shall be subject to the Design Guidelines for Princess Anne Commons, in effect as of the date of the approval of this Conditional Use Permit by the City Council, which Guidelines are on file with the Planning Department of the City of Virginia Beach.

The segment of Princess Anne Road adjacent to this site consists of eight lanes within a variable 150 to 160 foot right-of- way. There are no active Capital Improvement Program (CIP) projects to'further improve this segment of Princess Anne Road. The existing right-of-way of Concert Drive is approximately 120 feet wide. The MTP Map does not propose any expansion of Concert Drive. There is an inactive CIP roadway project for Concert Drive Extended (CIP 2-194). That project would extend Concert Drive south past its current terminus to an intersection with Dam Neck Road.

The TIA notes that this update of the 2002 master plan for the campus, which now includes two 9,000 square foot restaurants, generates only four percent (4%) higher traffic than the master plan approved in December 2002. Traffic Engineering concludes that the vehicular trips generated by the two 9,000 square foot restaurants will likely not be as high as 2,289 ADT due to the degree of `internal trips' that the restaurants will generate (trips that remain on the 'campus' rather than being generated from off the campus). The applicant's TIA indicates that 20% of this traffic will be internal trips; however, Traffic Engineering believes that 20% is too high of an estimate. Traffic Engineering has met with the Planning Department, Sentara representatives, and Sentara's design consultants regarding the revised TIA and has provided them with comments. Traffic Engineering reports that based on the discussion among all parties, the Concert Drive intersection with the internal roadway the two restaurants are to be located on will not be signalized as shown on the plan included with this report. UPDATE: A second revision of the study, dated January 16, 2005, was submitted. At the time this report went to print, Traffic Engineering had not had an opportunity to fully review the revised study. Public Utilities Water: There is a 12 inch water line in Dam Neck Road at the southeast corner of the property. There is a 24 inch water line on the opposite side of Princess Anne Road at the north corner of the property. Any development must connect to the City water supply. Sewer: There is a three inch and an eight inch sanitary sewer force main in Concert Drive at the northwest corner of the site. There is a sanitary sewer manhole at the entrance of Concert Drive at its intersection with Princess Anne Road. The development must connect to the City sewer system. An analysis of Pump Station 578 will be required to ensure new flows can be accommodated. .1,1, SENTAF Agend Public Safety Police: The applicant is encouraged to contact and work with the Crime Prevention Office within the Police Department for crime prevention techniques and Crime Prevention Through Environmental Design (CPTED) concepts and strategies as they pertain to this site.

SENTARA HEALTHCARE BY: .rt V Donald V. Jellig Vice President Srnt— • CRZ Attacbmits SENTARF Agenda Item # 13 & 14 Sentara Healthcare Change of Zoning District Classification Southeast intersection of Concert Drive and Princess Anne Conditional Use Permit South side of Princess Anne Road District 7 Princess Anne February 9, 2005 CONSENT William Din: The next items are two items. They are Items #13 & 14. This is Sentara Healthcare. This is an application for a Change in Zoning District Classification from Conditional 0-2 Office District to Conditional B-2 Community Business District on property located on the southeast intersection of Concert Drive and Princess Anne Road, and Item #14 is an application for a Conditional Use Permit for a hospital, athletic club, eating and drinking establishments, and sales of convenience goods located at this same area on Princess Anne Road. This is in the Princess Anne District, and there are ten conditions. R.J. Nutter: Thank you Mr. Din, Madame Chairman. My name is R.J. Nutter and I'm an attorney representing Sentara Healthcare. We are familiar with the conditions and proffers, and having written many of them ourselves, so we obviously have no objection, and we appreciate being on your consent agenda. Thank you very much. William Din: Thank you Mr. Nutter. Is there any objection to placing this on consent agenda? If not, Mr. Horsley will talk to this issue. Donald Horsley: Okay. Thank you Will. Sentara Healthcare Group. Basically this application in essence was approved in 2002 with the intention that there were some reasons to come back and have amendments, and reinstatements of the Conditional Use Permit. The Conditional Use Permit in 2002 allowed for the development of the medical campus, and medical related uses, such as offices and shops associated with the medical facility. Since then, there is a real concept of the medical campus has become more defined, and now there is a village type style concept that seems to be more appealing to the Planning Staff and Planning Commissioners at this time. Basically the usage would remain the same. The second request is an effort by the health group to keep the business employees in this area. You have small portions of the northern corner of the site, and a change of zoning from 0-2 to B-2. This would allow the development of two 9,000 square foot restaurants, which would be amending to the business to the hospital complex and to other people in the area. So we think this is a good benefit. And staff has commented many times that Sentara has been an awfully good group to work with, and very open. There is one deal in the air that concerns some of us, some was kind of a promise that was made to these people that use these softball fields at Princess Anne Item #13 & 14 Sentara Healthcare Page 2 Park. The fields were to remain there until the other fields were developed. And that was to take place this year in 2005, and that has not taken place because there are some holdups that have happened in the development stage of the new Princess Anne Park. So, realizing that, Parks and Recreation have gone and taken upon themselves to not keeping them from playing ball this summer but they have lighted other fields throughout the City, and we've lost four or five fields at PA Park. They would not be able to be played on this year, and they had lights placed on seven other fields throughout the City. Realizing it to be a little bit more of an inconvenience to the people who play the softball in the summer, but we feel like in the long run it will be really big benefit to the City because these fields that lights were put upon will stay there. So, even after Princess Anne Park is developed and open next year. So, we think that will be a plus even though we're kind of concerned that it didn't seem far fetched enough to meet this timeframe in the beginning. But things do happen that way and we understand that. So, being we see no opposition and with favorable staff comments, we feel like it warranted consent agenda status today, and we welcome Sentara to our community. William Din: Thank you Mr. Horsley. The consent agenda item that I have for approval are Items #13 & 14, Sentara Health Care for a Change in Zoning District Classification from Conditional 0-2 Office District to Conditional B-2 Community Business District on property located at the intersection of Concert and Princess Anne Road. This is also the application for a Conditional Use Permit for the hospital, athletic club and other accessory uses at the same location in the Princess Anne District and there are ten conditions. So I move to approve this consent agenda item. Dorothy Wood: Thank you. Do I have a second? Eugene Crabtree: Second. Dorothy Wood: Mr. Miller. Robert Miller: I need to abstain from Items #13 & 14.

The Comprehensive Plan designates this site as part of Strategic Growth Area 3 — Newtown Area, suitable for office and light industrial uses. The purpose of the rezoning is to expand an existing automobile sales and repair facility. DISTRICT 2 — KEMPSVILLE b) An Ordinance upon Application of Snyder Family Trust for a Modification of Conditions for a Conditional Use Permit approved by City Council on October 23, 2001 on property located at 5225 Virginia Beach Boulevard and on the east side of Clearfield Avenue, approximately 600 feet south of Virginia Beach Boulevard (GPINS 14676612940000; 14676621650000; 14676610690000; 14676692260000). DISTRICT 2 — KEMPSVILLE ■ Considerations: The applicant wishes to rezone three (3) parcels from R-7.5 Residential District to Conditional B-2 Community Business District and to incorporate those parcels into the existing auto sales and service facility to the north and east. A rezoning is required to operate auto sales and service on these sites as the property is currently zoned residential; a modification to the existing Conditional Use Permit for motor vehicle sales and repair is also required to incorporate the lots into the operation. The application indicates that the addition of these parcels will be used for parking and/or display area only. No additional structures are proposed on these lots. The original Conditional Use Permit for the existing auto facility was granted on May 23, 1988. Since that time, several expansions have prompted additional use permit requests as well as a request for a change of zoning for annexed parcels. Most recently, in October 2001, City Council approved a rezoning Snyder Family Trust Page 2of2 request and the expansion of the Conditional Use Permit to incorporate into the facility lots 11, 13, 15 and 17 along Clearfield Avenue. The parcels on Clearfield Avenue to the south of the applicant's parcel were recently rezoned from Residential to Conditional B-2 for the purpose of expanding the existing office complex to the southeast. The applicant's rezoning request consists of all of the remaining residential parcels on the east side of Clearfield Avenue except one. Staff cannot support this rezoning as long as it results in the encirclement of a single-family home with a parking lot and privacy fencing. When the applicant is able to bring forward a complete package for rezoning all remaining residentially zoned properties on this side of Clearfield Avenue, (lots 19, 21, 23 and 25) Staff will be more favorable to the requests. The church located on the west side of Clearfield Avenue has purchased much of the property fronting that side of the street. The southern end of Clearfield Avenue is anchored by office and commercial uses and the northern end is anchored by the Virginia Beach Boulevard commercial corridor. In light of these facts, there appears to be a definite trend in this area from residential to commercial, institutional, and office uses. The applicant has attempted to purchase the final adjacent lot. Staff does not feel that the remaining property owner should be subjected to the intensity of the operation from the north, south and east. Staff's charge, as provided by the Comprehensive Plan, is to protect existing residential properties from intrusion by less than compatible uses. It is the Staff's position, that surrounding this remaining parcel with a parking lot and a privacy fence is not in the best interest of that property owner's quality of life. ■ Recommendations: The Planning Commission passed a motion by a recorded vote of 10-0 with abstention to approve the requests. ■ Attachments: Staff Review Disclosure Statement Planning Commission Minutes Location Map Recommended Action: Staff recommends deferral.

AICUZ: The site is in an AICUZ of less than 65dB Ldn surrounding NAS Oceana. Summary ', r .: The applicant wishes to rezone three (3) parcels from R-7.5 Residential District to Conditional B-2 Community Business District and incorporate those properties into the existing auto sales and service facility to the north and east. A rezoning is required to operate auto sales and service on these sites as the property is currently zoned residential and a modification to the existing Conditional Use Permit is also required to incorporate the lots into the operation. The application indicates that the addition of these parcels will be used for parking and/or display area only. No additional structures are proposed on these lots. SNYDER The original Conditional Use Permit for the existing auto facility was granted on May 23, 1988. Since that time, several expansions have prompted additional use permit requests as well as a request for a change of zoning for annexed parcels. Most recently, in October 2001, City Council approved a rezoning request and the expansion of the Conditional Use Permit to incorporate into the facility lots 11, 13, 15 and 17 along Clearfield Avenue. Comprehensive, The Comprehensive Plan recognizes these parcels as within the Primary Residential Area. The land use planning policies and principles for the Primary Residential Area focus strongly on preserving and protecting the overall character, economic value and aesthetic quality of the stable neighborhoods located in this area. The established type, size, and relationship of land use, both residential and non-residential, in and around these neighborhoods should serve as a guide when considering future development. 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 serve as conditions restricting the use of the property as proposed with this change of zoning. SNYDER Agend, PROFFER # 1 When the Property is developed, is shall be developed substantially as shown on the exhibit entitled "Checkered Flag Parking Lot Expansion," dated 11 /22/04, prepared by MSA, P.C., Virginia Beach, Virginia, which has been exhibited to the Virginia Beach City Council and is on file with the Virginia Beach Department of Planning (hereinafter "Site Plan"). PROFFER # 2 When the Property is developed, is shall be landscaped substantially as depicted on the exhibit entitled "Checkered Flag Parking Lot Expansion," dated 11/22/04, prepared by MSA, P.C., Virginia Beach, Virginia, which has been exhibited to the Virginia Beach City Council and is on file with the Virginia Beach Department of Planning (hereinafter "Landscape Plan"). PROFFER # 3 The use of the Property shall be automobiles sales display area and/or accessory parking in accordance with a conditional use permit duly approved by the City Council of the City of Virginia Beach. Staff Evaluation of The proffers are acceptable. It ensures connectivity with Proffers: the existing operation and that no ingress/egress from these properties onto Clearfield Avenue will occur. City Attorney's The City Attorney's Office has reviewed the proffer Office: agreement dated November 22, 2004, and found it to be legally sufficient and in acceptable legal form. Staff Evaluation`# Staff cannot support these requests and recommends deferral. The parcels on Clearfield Avenue to the south of the applicant's parcel were recently rezoned from Residential to Conditional B-2 for the purpose of expanding the existing office complex to the southeast. The applicant's rezoning request consists of all of the remaining residential parcels on the east side of Clearfield Avenue except one. Based SNYDER Agend, on the rationale provided below, Staff cannot support this rezoning as long as it results in the encirclement of a single-family home with a parking lot and privacy fencing. When the applicant is able to bring forward a complete package for rezoning all remaining residentially zoned properties on this side of Clearfield Avenue, (lots 19, 21, 23 and 25) Staff will be more favorable to the requests. The church located on the west side of Clearfield Avenue has purchased much of the property fronting that side of the street. The southern end of Clearfield Avenue is anchored by office and commercial uses and the northern end is anchored by the Virginia Beach Boulevard commercial corridor. In light of these facts, there appears to be a definite trend in this area from residential to commercial, institutional, and office uses. The land use planning policies and principles for the Primary Residential Area focus strongly on preserving and protecting the overall character, economic value and aesthetic quality of the stable neighborhoods located in this area. The established type, size, and relationship of land use, both residential and non-residential, in and around these neighborhoods should serve as a guide when considering future development. As stated above, the surrounding properties have transitioned from residential to community business and church related uses; however, as recommended in the Comprehensive Plan, the remaining and existing residents must be protected against uses that are incompatible in terms of scope, scale and use. However, while the applicant has attempted to purchase the final adjacent lot, Staff does not feel that the remaining property owner should be subjected to the intensity of the operation from the north, south and east. Staff's charge, as provided by the Comprehensive Plan, is to protect existing residential properties from intrusion by less than compatible uses. It is the Staff's position, that surrounding lot 19 with a parking lot is not in the best interest of that property owner's quality of life. Staff, therefore, encourages a deferral of this request to allow the applicant additional time to explore opportunities for inclusion of the final parcel. NOTE: Further conditions may be required during the administration of applicable City Ordinances. Plans submitted with this rezoning application may require revision during detailed site plan review to meet all applicable Citv Codes.

Morris Fine: Good afternoon Madame Chairman and the rest of the Commission. I'm Morris Fine and I represent the Snyder Family Trust. I think I have some good news for you. I spoke at length this morning with Ms. Roberts, who is the last resident of Clearfield Avenue. I've known her for the last several years because she was here previously when the Snyder/Checkered Flag had a rezoning for the property just to the east of her. At that time, she requested that a fence be put up and they would be landscaping and that was done to satisfy her. I spoke to her again this morning about whether or not she had any objection to the rezoning and the Conditional Use Permit that is going before you today, and she said "No," she did not. Checkered Flag had been good neighbors to her. I asked her specifically, I said, "Ms. Roberts, has there been any noise problem because of the adjacent use or has there been any lights that have caused you any problem", and she said "No". She said the only problem that she had was that there seemed to be some drainage on to her property, and I know that is being addressed to a degree with the present plan that we have going before us on this rezoning. So, actually what will happen is Ms. Roberts, who asked me whether or not it would affect her ability to stay there and I said "No", she will stay there. I might also tell you that the Snyder's have made generous offers to her, and she has told me that she wanted to move but lately she says she has arthritis, and she has been looking at nursing homes, and that has been her hang up. And, I said to her I said, "Would it be okay for me to tell the Planning Commission that you have no objection?" and she said that was fine with her. I represent that is what has occurred. I think we have here a method, on the staff s part to protect this one lady, and I understand that. But, I think we also understand that there is Item #2 & 3 Snyder Family Trust Page 2 complete trend that has changed the use of Clearfield Avenue from residential to commercial, and I would ask you to approve this change of zoning and also the Conditional Use Permit. I think it is compatible with what we have here and we will leave Mrs. Roberts and Ms. Roberts asked me whether or not we would or Checkered Flag would still have the offer out there that they have made to her. They've made substantial offers to her way above fair market value to buy her house. I said, "Yes Ms. Roberts." I can assure you that will be done and I told her as long as I'm around and still standing we will back up that offer to her. So, I think we've satisfied Ms. Roberts and I think that ought to satisfy the Commission. Dorothy Wood: Thank you Mr. Fine. Wouldn't it be nice if they were shoveling snow they would shovel hers or if they were cutting grass they would cut hers. Morris Fine: That would be nice. She is a very nice lady. Dorothy Wood: It would be very nice of them to do it. You might want to pass it along. Morris Fine: I'll ask them to do that Ms. Wood. Does anyone else have any questions? Dorothy Wood: Thank you Mr. Fine. We appreciate it. Morris Fine: You're very welcome. Dorothy Wood: Is there any discussion? Are there any motions? Eugene Crabtree: I think he answered all of our questions. I'd move that we approve the application as submitted. John Waller: I'll second. Dorothy Wood: Mr. Miller? Robert Miller: I need to abstain. My firm is working on the project. Dorothy Wood: Thank you. Janice Anderson: I would just like to make a comment on that. I think it is a little different with the rezoning where you leave one lot out. I had reservations about doing that but I think with Mr. Fine's explanation and the extra steps that they had taken, I would believe it in this respect that I would support it. Dorothy Wood: I also had reservation but after hearing Mr. Fine. Ronald Ripley: I'm respectful of the staff s comments on this. I think the write up is appropriate and trying to make sure we protect the neighborhood, but it is a neighborhood Item #2 & 3 Snyder Family Trust Page 3 in change and it's a real tough one. I don't know but they probably wrestled with this question also, I imagine before a final decision was made to make the recommendation to defer and try to get this to work out. I think, it sounds like Mr. Fine is trying to work it out, and they probably eventually will. So, I'm in agreement with the motion also. Dorothy Wood: Thank you. A motion was made by Gene and seconded by Ms. Katsias and Mr. Waller both.

We thank you for being on the consent agenda. William Din: There are three conditions on here from Planning. You've read all three? Jacob Martin: Yes sir. William Din: Okay. Thank you. Is there any objection to placing this item on consent agenda? If not, Mr. Miller would please speak to this issue. Robert Miller: Word of Life was a church that was in our area, and then, from what I understand, they left and have come back now, and this is a great renewing of that effort in our area. They're coming to a shopping center that is at the corner of Edwin Drive and Princess Anne Road, and will be pulling into one of the spaces of the shopping center. The parking needs that have been presented will be for ten parking spaces, and we feel this fits into the plan for the shopping center and for that area, it will be a good use for the community.

DISTRICT 2 — KEMPSVILLE ■ Considerations: The applicant intends to use the existing building primarily as a neighborhood social/community center, with the church services being held in the building on Wednesday and Sunday. The community center is a non-profit organization; the church is the sponsoring organization for the community center. It is the intent of the applicant to relocate the church services to a permanent sanctuary at another location once enough funds are raised and a suitable property is found. The community center will remain as a long-term use. The church requires a Conditional Use Permit; the community center where the church will be housed is an allowed use within the B-2 Community Business District under the category of private club/social center. This proposal is unique and will provide opportunities for entertainment, recreation and learning for the surrounding community. Some of the opportunities provided will include computer classes, music and art studios, theater workshops, after -school activities, game room and leadership training. The reuse of the existing commercial building for a church and community center generates considerably less impact to the abutting area than some of the more intense uses that would be allowed by right in the B-2 zoning district. In fact, the church use and associated community center will serve an identified need for organized recreation, community and social activities for a wide range of age groups within the surrounding neighborhoods. The building and associated parking can accommodate both the church and community center. Therefore, the use of this building for church meetings should not negatively impact on the adjacent shopping center. The Planning Commission placed this item on the consent agenda because it is an appropriate use for the site. Perfecting Saints Page 2 of 2 ■ Recommendations: The Planning Commission passed a motion by a recorded vote of 11-0 to approve this request with the following conditions: 1. Parking shall be provided for the church at the ratio of one parking space for every five seats in the primary meeting area during Sunday services. The Zoning Administrator shall conduct a yearly review of the parking situation to determine if there are any conflicts with the community center/church use. 2.

FEATURES: There is very little landscaping on the site. AICUZ: The AICUZ zones surrounding NAS Oceana do not impact the site. Summary of Pronosa The applicant is proposing to use the existing building primarily as a neighborhood social/community center, with the church services being held in the building on Wednesday and Sunday. The community center is a non-profit organization; the church is the sponsoring organization for the community center. It is the intent of the applicant to relocate the church services to a permanent sanctuary at another location once enough funds are raised and a suitable property is found. The community center will remain as a long-term use. The church requires a Conditional Use Permit; the community center where the church will be housed is an allowed use within the B-2 Community Business District under the category of private club/social center. This proposal is unique and will provide opportunities for entertainment, recreation and learning for the surrounding community. Some of the opportunities provided will include computer classes, music and art studios, theater workshops, after -school activities, game room and leadership training. The existing building is 10,000 square feet in size. There are three parking areas associated with the building; together, these parking areas contain 138 spaces. The community center requires 1 space per 100 square feet, or 100 spaces. Therefore, there are 38 spaces that can be reserved for church use. Comprehensivean The Comprehensive Plan identifies this area as being part of the Primary Residential Area. The land use planning policies and principles focus strongly on preserving and protecting the overall character, economic value and aesthetic quality of stable neighborhoods. The Plan policies also support development proposals that fulfill a legitimate public need for compatible neighborhood support uses and activities. Staff recommends approval of this request. The reuse of the existing commercial building for a church and community center generates considerably less impact to the abutting area than some of the more intense uses that would be allowed by right in the B-2 zoning district. In fact, the church use and associated community center will serve an identified need for organized recreation, community and social activities for a wide range of age groups within the surrounding neighborhoods. The applicant has stated that it is the intent of the church to use this building as a meeting place until enough funds can be raised to find a suitable property for a permanent sanctuary. The building and associated parking can accommodate both the church and community center in this scenario. Therefore, the use of this building for church meetings should not negatively impact on the adjacent shopping center. Staff, therefore, recommends approval of this request with the following conditions. Condition 1. Parking shall be provided for the church at the ratio of one parking space for every five seats in the primary meeting area during Sunday services. The Zoning Administrator shall conduct a yearly review of the parking situation to determine if there are any conflicts with the community center/church use. 2. The Conditional Use Permit for Indoor Recreation — Bingo, approved by City Council on 05/29/90, is no longer valid. NOTE: Further conditions may be required during the administration of applicable City Ordinances. The site plan submitted with this conditional use permit may require revision during detailed site plan review to meet all applicable City Codes. Conditional use permits must be activated within 12 months of City Council approval. See Section 220(g) of the City Zoning Ordinance for further information.

It's Perfecting Saints. This is an application for a Conditional Use Permit for a church on property located at 620 Baker Road in the Kempsville District. We initially were going to hear this issue. We didn't have any objection to this so we placed it on consent. We would like the applicant to come forward and possibly speak on this issue a little bit. There are two conditions associated with this application. Anthony Taylor: Good afternoon. Madame Chairperson, ladies and gentlemen of the Commission, my name is Anthony Taylor. I'm a Board member of Perfecting Saints, and the home organization of the Newtown Cultural Life Center. We have read the Commission's report and accept your conditions. William Din: Thank you. Dorothy Wood: Would you tell us a little bit about this. We were going to hear this originally because some of the Planning Commissioners had expressed a desire to hear more about it. And, I know this is unusual on a consent item. But, I for one was very happy to hear of your proposal and I am wondering if you can just explain to us a little bit about your new center. I know it's a need in that area for the center. Anthony Taylor: Thank you very much Madame Chairperson. The pastor of Perfecting Saints is here. He is the leader of the Perfecting Saints and the Newtown Cultural Life Center. Would you like to speak with him? Dorothy Wood: Yes sir. We would like to. Even though it is on consent this is highly unusual. We just had some members who would like to hear a little bit more about it. Anthony Taylor: Right. We appreciate your time. Thank you. Dorothy Wood: Thank you sir. Good afternoon. Welcome. Pastor Joe Flores: Good afternoon. Thank you. I want to thank you for putting us on the consent agenda. I also want to thank the Planning staff for working with us. I won't take up much of your time. Let me just give you just two minutes worth of personal history. Ed Weeden: Identify yourself please for the record. Item # 16 Perfecting Saints Page 2 Pastor Joe Flores: My name is Pastor Joe Flores. Ed Weeden: Thank you. Pastor Flores: I'm the senior pastor of Perfecting Saints Worship Center and the President of the Newtown Cultural Life Center. Just about two minutes of personal history. I was actually born in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania in the inner city to a family of eight. I have four brothers and three sisters. I actually have four sisters and three brothers. Dorothy Wood: You have a large family sir. Pastor Joe Flores: Yes indeed. When I was very young, my mother due to an asthma condition moved to Florida. She ended up moving back after a year, back to Philadelphia. That is an important factor to remember. When we moved back, my oldest brother was shot in the stomach three times. He fell in the middle of the street, got himself together, stood up, tagged himself a taxi, and took himself to the hospital. He survived. A couple of weeks after that, my next older brother went to the store to get a cheese steak for my mother. He came back with a knife in his back. When she opened the door he fell flat on the floor. My mother called a man that she had met in Orlando, Florida, and she said there is a lot of gang violence up here. I'm worried about Joe, and I was wondering if he could live with you for the rest of the school year so I can get him out of the gang situations in Philadelphia. This was in November. He was a white businessman in Orlando, Florida. He owned a chain of television and appliance stores. He said send him down. He can stay with me for the remainder of the school year, he and his family. He was married with three kids himself. Four months after I was sent there, my mother died. He sent me back to Philadelphia. They lined us up at the funeral, and after the funeral was over, and various family members began to pick who was going to keep who, everybody got picked but me. As I was standing there they said what are we going to do with Joe? I don't know. Somebody said send him back to Florida. So, they did. The man who then took me and adopted me closed all of his stores. He took the last store, which was about a 10,000 square foot building, and he turned it into a community center. I began working at that community center when I was 11 years old. I would leave school and go directly to the community center. At 12 years old, I had a very profound religious experience. I experienced what most people would come to understand to be a call to the ministry. I was 12. I believed it was true. I didn't think it was macaroni and cheese. I really believed that I was called. By the time I was 15, I was licensed as a minister in the State of Florida. By the time I was 16, I was the first youth counselor for that community center and by the time I was 19, I was the staff director. Community center work and outreach work in urban communities has been what my life has been about. I just didn't get a good idea. This is what I was raised doing. I was raised in a community center. I was raised reaching out to young people. I was raised talking to guys who didn't have a whole lot of choices, and some of them didn't have a whole lot of opportunities. Some of them didn't have a whole lot of education but we were able to make some interventions in that time. I say all that to say that what we are doing now it wasn't something that we Item # 16 Perfecting Saints Page 3 just decided lightly. Actually, it was just an outgrowth of who we are. It is not just myself, but there are hosts of people. I just want to really quick. I promise I won't keep you another 2 minutes but that's a preacher two minutes. Peggy Britt is my Assistant Pastor. She is also on the Board of the Newtown Cultural Life Center. Nobody will tell you anything different. She is a legend in this area in gospel music. I think she is secret to many people who are in the Hampton Roads because she has two nationally recorded CD's out that is played all over the world. I had one of my members go to Iraq. As a matter of fact, he's here. Wherever he was. He called and said, Pastor, you wouldn't believe this. He said Peggy Britt's CD is right here in this store right here in Behrain. Stand up Peggy. She is going to be the music director for the Newtown Cultural Life Center. This young man here, stand up Carlton. Carlton has been working with young people for over 15 years. He's a baseball and football coach. I don't know how often his team wins but he tries hard. Monique Taylor is a teacher at the Coastal Christian Academy. We have a program called Y Moms? It means young mothers on a mission to succeed. That program is designed to provide mentoring, life skill training, coaching to teenage mothers. You know, when you are 16 and you have a baby and it's happening more frequently, and when you are 30 and you have a baby you don't always know what to do. But when you are 16 and you have a baby and there is no support system, you need some help. Monique Taylor is going to be coordinating that program. Who am I missing? Sitting right next to her is Angela Proffitt. Angela Proffitt is going to be our theater director. She is a drama and theater teacher also at Coastal Christian Academy. Am I correct on that? All these people came prepared to tell you and explain to you in detail what each one of these programs do. If you want to go through that it would be a nice afternoon. Dorothy Wood: Thank you very much Pastor. I'm sure there is a time we would all like to hear that. If you could just have everyone stand up sir? Pastor Joe Flores: I brought my accountant. Dorothy Wood: That's wonderful. Thank you all for coming. We certainly appreciate it. We appreciate the good work you all are doing. I work over in that area with another group and I do appreciate your coming. Pastor Flores: I was just getting warmed up actually. Dorothy Wood: We'll come Sunday morning to hear you. Pastor Joe Flores: I want to thank Barbara Duke. She has been a tremendous help. Dorothy Wood: Barbara, do you want to stand up? Pastor Joe Flores: She has been a tremendous help to us in the information. She has been very accurate. She didn't tell me to tell you this but I think she should get a raise. Item # 16 Perfecting Saints Page 4 Dorothy Wood: Thank you Pastor very much. William Din: There is no objection to placing this on consent? However, we do have like ten speakers on this issue and if the speakers want to speak, we'll probably have to hear it in its proper line up that is why we placed it on consent. If you do want to speak on this item we will have to hear it in it's proper order. Dorothy Wood: Way late this afternoon. Anthony Taylor: We sincerely appreciate the Commission's patience and we thank you very much. Dorothy Wood: Thank you sir. I think Ron wants to talk about it. Ronald Ripley: The whole purpose of wanting to hear it was just to hear what you just said. We wanted to make sure that we understood exactly what was going there because there is such a need for it in the community. We just want it be successful. I think that is what it is going to be. It's very encouraging. We wish you the very best. William Din: The consent agenda item that I have for approval is Item #16, Perfecting Saints. This is a Conditional Use Permit for a church on property located at 620 Baker Road in the Kempsville District with two conditions. So I move to approve this consent agenda item. Dorothy Wood: Thank you. Do I have a second? Eugene Crabtree: Second.

Item #17 is Garden of the Pines. This is an application for a Conditional Use Permit for a pet crematory located on 2685 Salem Road in the Princess Anne District and there are three conditions. Brenda Stevens: Good afternoon. My name is Brenda Stevens. I'm President of the Garden of the Pines Board of Directors. We've read the conditions and we agree. Thank you putting us on the consent. William Din: Is there any objection to placing this item on consent? Don Horsley is going to speak on this issue. Donald Horsley: Before we had a very lively application to speak on but I'm on the other end of the spectrum. But anyway, this application is for an addition of a crematorium for the pet cemetery that has been there and I don't know how many years it has been there for as long as I can remember and that is about 40 years and Barry is a little bit older than that and he says it was there when he was born. Anyway, this is an accessory use to this well -established pet cemetery. We think we've been provided information that there will be no odor or no excessive noise from the impact of this being placed on this property. We had one concern about the odor but we think that has been well addressed. So that is why we continued to put it on the consent agenda. The staff had a favorable recommendation for it. So therefore, we think it deserves consent agenda status so we put it on there. William Din: The consent agenda item that I have for approval is Item #17, Garden of the Pines for a Conditional Use Permit for a pet crematory on property located at 2685 Salem Road in the Princess Anne District and it has three conditions. So I move to approve this consent agenda item. Dorothy Wood: Thank you. Do I have a second? Eugene Crabtree: Second.

February 9, 2005 To: The Planning Commission From: Gail & Paul Thompson Subject: Application for pet crematorium on Salem Road My name is Gail Thompson, and my husband and I live at 2709 Salem Road. We own the property immediately to the south of the pet cemetery. We oppose the application for the crematorium, based on the negative impact it would have on the value of our property. Our property is already affected by the pet cemetery, because of various items being blown and/or dumped on our property, in the wooded area to the rear. We do not need the additional problem of odor from a crematorium. Despite the claims of crematorium operators and equipment sellers, there is an odor problem. From an internet search I conducted, Jack Boulware, in an article to the San Francisco Gate, said that as he was walking through the pet cemetery, he smelled the "unmistakable odor of something burning". Also, a retired maintenance worker who repaired incinerators at Michigan State University which were used for cremating horses and cows, said that he remembers the smoke and odor, especially when they broke down. "I'm telling you, you can smell them", he said. We strongly urge the denial of this application. Sincerely, Gail E. Thompson Paul R. Thompson K.
