(';/1 ~~~.y CITY OF VIRGINIA BEACH AGENDA ITEM ITEM: An Ordinance to Repeal City Code Sections 13-16 through 13-22, Pertaining to Food Handler's Cards for restaurant Employees. MEETING DATE: November 28, 2006 . Background: Until 1988, restaurant employees were required by the City Code to have a "Food Handler's Card" in order to work in a food service establishment. In 1988, however, the City Council adopted an ordinance that required food service establishments to have an employee who held a Food Service Manager's Certification. This Certification was intended to supplant the need for individual Food Handler's Cards for each employee, and for that reason Food Handler's Cards have not subsequently been required by the Health Department. Although the Health Department has not been requiring Food Handler's Cards since the inception of the Food Service Manager's Certification, the now-superfluous City Code provisions requiring Food Handler's Cards were not repealed. . Considerations: The proposed ordinance would repeal the provisions of the City Code that require a Food Handler's Card to work in a food service establishment, as they have been superseded by the requirements for a Food Service Manager's Certification. This is a housekeeping measure for the City Code. It will not result in any change in the existing manner of supervision of food service establishments by the Health Department. . Public Information: This ordinance will be advertised as a normal agenda item. . Alternatives: While the City Council may decline to adopt the ordinance, it is purely a housekeeping matter and will not result in any changes in the Health Department's supervision of restaurants in the City. . Recommendations: Adoption of the ordinance. .

CA-10205 R-2 November 16, 2006 APPROVED AS TO CONTENT: .,0, Department 4 ~~'z~.""..1A .~\~.C~ ,.~ ... ~;..:: ft'< .\~ ~,:" "ii~~ \"', ~ ..11 ~~~*-, - ~~ \.\.~~::r CITY OF VIRGINIA BEACH AGENDA ITEM ITEM: An Ordinance to Amend and Reordain Section 16-39 of the City Code Pertaining to Spot Blight Abatement MEETING DATE: November 28,2006 . Background: City Council adopted Section 16-39 of the City Code in 2000, based on the Virginia statutes in effect at that time. Under the City's Spot Blight Abatement Ordinance, the City can declare properties blighted and require that property owners abate the blight. If they fail to do so, the City can abate the blight or acquire the properties through condemnation. Under the Spot Blight Abatement Ordinance, two properties have been acquired as authorized by council. However, during the 2006 session of the General Assembly, the Virginia statutes (Va. Code S 36-49.1:1, et seq.) providing this authority were amended. In order for the City to continue to operate the spot blight abatement program, the City must amend the City Code to reflect the changes to the Virginia Code. . Considerations: The changes made by the Virginia Code do not significantly alter the method of utilizing the spot blight abatement procedure. The significant changes to the ordinance are more details regarding the owner of property and their notification and a new definition of "blighted property" that is less broad than before. . Public Information: Because this is a minor change to an existing program, the information provided through the normal City Council agenda process is sufficient. . Alternatives: Without this change, the spot blight abatement program would not be fully in alignment with the Virginia Code. . Recommendations: It is recommended that the amendment be adopted as presented. .

In addition, the city may recover the cost of any 21 repair or disposal of such property from the owner, or owners of 22 record at their last known address as contained in the records of 23 the treasurer or the current real estate tax assessment records. 24 (b) "Blighted property" means any individual commercial, 25 industrial, or residential structure or improvement that endangers 26 the public's health, safety, or welfare because the structure or 27 improvement upon the property is dilapidated, deteriorated, or 28 violates minimum health and safety standards, or any structure or 29 improvement previously designated as blighted under the process for 30 determination of "spot blight".

The owner or owners shall have thirty (30) days from the date the notice is sent within which to respond in writing with a spot blight abatement plan to €ttre address the blight within a reasonable time. A spot blight abatement plan is a written plan prepared by the owner or owners of record of the real property to address spot blight. (d) If the owner or owners of record fail~ to respond within the thirty-day period with a written spot blight abatement plan that is acceptable to the city manager or his designee, the city may (i) request the planning commission to conduct a public hearing and make findings and recommendations that shall be reported to ci ty council concerning the repair or other disposition of the property in question and (ii) in the event a public hearing is 2 55 scheduled, shall prepare a written spot blight abatement plan for 56 the repair or other disposition of the property. 57 (e) No spot blight abatement plan shall be effective until 58 notice has been sent to the property owner or owners of record as 59 determined in (a) above and an ordinance has been adopted by city 60 council.

The notice of the 71 public hearing shall be published at least twice, with not less 72 than six (6) days elapsing between the first and second publication 73 in a newspaper published or having general circulation in the 74 locality in which the property is located. The notice also shall be 75 posted on the property. The notice shall specify the time and place 76 of the hearing at which persons affected may appear and present 77 their views, not less than six (6) days nor more than twenty-one 78 (21) days after the second publication. 3 79 80 81 82 83 84 85 86 87 88 89 90 91 92 93 94 95 96 97 98 99 100 101 102 (3) The plan for the repair or other disposition of the property is in accordance with the city's comprehensive plan, and the comprehensive zoning ordinances; and The property is located wi thin an area listed on the National Register of Historic Places. In such instances, ( 4 ) the planning commission shall consult with the architectural review board, regarding the proposed repair or other disposition of the property by city council. (g) The planning commission shall report its findings and recommendations concerning the property to city council. City council, upon receipt of such findings and recommendations, may after an advertised public hearing, affirm, modify, or reject the planning commission's findings and recommendations. If the repair or other disposition of the property is approved, the city manager or his designee may carry out the approved plan to repair or acquire and dispose of the property in accordance with the approved plan, the provisions of this section, and applicable law. If the ordinance is adopted by city council, the city shall have a lien on 4 103 all property so repaired or acquired under an approved spot blight 104 abatement plan to recover the cost of (i) improvements made by the 105 city to bring the blighted property into compliance with applicable 106 building codes and (ii) disposal, if any. The lien authorized by 107 this section shall be filed in the circuit court of the City of 108 Virginia Beach and shall be subordinate to any prior liens of 109 record. City council may recover its costs of repair from the owner 110 or owners of record of the property when the repairs were made at 111 such time as the property is sold or disposed of by such owner or 112 owners. If the property is acquired by the city through eminent 113 domain, the cost of repair may be recovered when city council sells 114 or disposes of the property. In either case, the costs of repair 115 shall be recovered from the proceeds of any such sale. 116 (h) If the blighted property is occupied for personal 117 residential purposes, city council, in approving the spot blight 118 abatement plan, shall not ~llo~ for the ~cquioition of acquire by 119 eminent domain such property if it would result in a displacement 120 of the person or persons living in the premises. The provisions of 121 this subsection shall not apply to acquisitions, under an approved 122 spot blight abatement plan, by the city of property which has been 123 condemned for human habitation for more than one year. In addition, 124 if the city is exercising the powers of eminent domain in 125 accordance with title 25.1 of Code of Virginia, it may provide for 126 temporary relocation of any person living in the blighted property 5 127 provided the relocation is wi thin the financial means of such 128 person. 129 (i) In lieu of the acquisition of blighted property by the 130 exercise of the po~ero eminent domain ~o herein pro~ided and in 131 lieu of the exercise of other powers granted in subsections (a) 132 through (g), city council by ordinance, may declare any blighted 133 property to constitute a nuisance, and thereupon abate the nuisance 134 pursuant to Code of Virginia section 15.2-900 or section 15.2-1115. 135 Such ordinance shall be adopted only after written notice by 136 certified mail to the owner or owners of the property at the last 137 known address of such owner as shown on the current real estate tax 138 assessment books or current real estate tax assessment records. 139 (j) The provisions of this section shall be cumulative and 140 shall be in addition to any remedies for spot blight abatement that 141 may be authorized by law. 142 COMMENT 143 These amendments are required by changes made by the General Assembly to Virginia Code 144 Section 36-49.1:1, et seq, the spot blight ordinance enabling statute. 145 146 The changes clarify how to determine who is the owner of record (lines 21-24), provides a new 147 definition of "blighted property", and explains that a "plan" is a spot blight abatement plan. 148 149 Adopted by the City Council of the City of Virginia Beach, 150 Virginia, on this day of , 2006.

Background: The Lynnhaven House, located at 4405 Wishart Road, is a highly significant remnant of Virginia Beach's colonial history. The house, located on the Bayside History Trail, built circa 1725, is one of the few remaining examples of post-medieval architecture in Virginia. The house has been restored and is significant for the high percentage of original building fabric that has survived. The Lynnhaven House is a property listed on the National Register of Historic Places (1969). The LynnhavenHouse was deeded to the Association for the Preservation of Virginia Antiquities (APVA), a non-profit organization based in Richmond, in 1971. The APV A later purchased adjacent property. The APV A restored the historic building and opened the Lynnhaven House to the public in the late 1970's. The Southeastern Branch APVA oversaw the operation on the local level. The local branch has undertaken a development project to construct a 4,000+ square foot Colonial Education Center on the site to provide necessary space for educational and community activities. The building is nearing completion, but insufficient funding has halted construction. The APV A has recently become APV A Preservation Virginia and their mission has evolved into providing for statewide advocacy for preservation and has become less focused on historic site management. On May 23, 2006, the Virginia Beach City Council adopted an ordinance to enter into a Management and Operating Agreement with APV A for the Department of Museums to operate the Lynnhaven House. Operational funding in FY07 ($121,344) is allowing for the historic house to be open on a year-round basis. The APV A Board has approved the sale/transfer/lease of the Lynnhaven House and adjacent property to the City of Virginia Beach. The Federallntermodal Surface Transportation Efficiency Act (ISTEA) was established in 1991 to provide new opportunities to enhance transportation systems. It was followed in 1998 by the establishment of the Transportation Equity Act for the 21st Century (TEA-21). Funding transportation enhancements is intended to strengthen the cultural, aesthetic and environmental aspects of the nation's intermodal transportation system. The federal funding provided via TEA-21 is directed to localities through state governmental agencies. The Virginia Department of Transportation (VDOT) oversees the funding program for the Commonwealth of Virginia. . The Lynnhaven House and APVA applied for 2004 Transportation Enhancement funding to develop and establish the Museum of Water Transportation in the Colonial Education Center. The Virginia Beach City Council adopted a Resolution on February 10, 2004 requesting the Commonwealth Transportation Board to establish the Museum of Water Transportation project. Federal funding in the amount of $250,000 for Lynnhaven House was confirmed with the receipt from VDOT in June 2005 of a Transportation Enhancement Program Agreement. The City of Virginia Beach, as the local governmental entity, is required to be the sponsoring agency and executor of Agreement. The grant must be expended within 48 months of the availability of the Enhancement Program Federal allocation. The grant requires a 20% local match. . Considerations: The Lynnhaven House property is divided into three parcels. Parcel 1-A is 1.666 acres in size and it contains a residential cottage and driveway access from Wishart Road. The cottage is under lease through March 16 to the newly hired site Museum Educator/Manager. The parcel has been appraised at $315,000 (7/14/05). The sale agreement would be for this amount. Parcel1-B is 1.861 acres and contains the historic Lynnhaven House. APVA Preservation Virginia has offered the City a 99-year ground lease on this parcel. Transfer of this parcel from APV A would require approval of the William W. Oliver, Sr. family. Unanimous approval from the fourteen (14) original Deed of Gift signers and their heirs, which was a condition in the 1971 deed, is not presently available. Parcel1-C is 1.374 acres and contains the nearly completed Colonial Education Center. The APV A opened a line of credit for the construction project and the balance due is $220,000. The sale agreement would be for this amount. Funding for the acquisition of Parcels 1-A and 1-C would be from CIP #4-004, "Open Space Program Site Acquisition." APVA currently does not have sufficient funding to complete the work on the Colonial Education Center. With seven (7) open building permits related to the construction, the City would be in a disadvantageous position to acquire the property prior to building completion and closing of the permits. All three transactions will be dependent upon the issuance of a Certificate of Occupancy for the Colonial Education Center. The primary work that remains is the site work including: water and sewer lines, hookups to City utilities, storm drainage, and parking lot construction. Project quotes received, including 15% for contingencies, total $241,500. In addition, interest on the line of credit for six months would total $9,600. The Lynnhaven House has $35,000 on hand. The Lynnhaven House has received an appropriation from the Virginia General Assembly in FY07 of $75,000, which is provided through the Virginia Department of Historic Resources (DHR) as a reimbursement grant. A grant to the Lynnhaven House in the amount of $141,100 from CIP #3-368, "Various Site Acquisitions," is recommended to bridge the gap so the building may be completed and transferred to Virginia Beach. Any unexpended monies from the City grant would revert to the source fund. The Lynnhaven House will pay the City $75,000 as it is reimbursed from DHR. Local revenue is increased accordingly ($75,000). The local government must administer TEA-21 reimbursement grants. The Transportation Enhancement Program Agreement for the Lynnhaven House project is between the Virginia Department of Transportation and the City of Virginia Beach. APV A Preservation Virginia owns the Lynnhaven House and the Colonial Education Center, but the City of Virginia Beach City Council has supported a plan to acquire the property parcels when they can be made available. The required action is for the City to sign the Program Agreement and accept and appropriate the necessary funding into CIP #3-073. It is expected that the required 20% match can be qualified from funds expended by the Southeastern Branch APV A Preservation Virginia and by services donated to them for the construction of the Colonial Education Center, which will house the exhibits. The Department of Museums will manage the project and administer the grant. They will coordinate with the Public Works Department with respect to any exhibition installation that is of a permanent nature or requires alterations to the Colonial Education Center building or its systems. . Public Information: Information will be disseminated to the public through the normal process involving the advertisement of the City Council agenda. . Alternatives: Do not provide funding for completion of the Colonial Education Center. Do not acquire the Lynnhaven House property parcels 1-A and/or 1-C and do not enter into a long-term lease for Parcel 1-8. Do not accept the TEA-21 grant or appropriate the funds. .

CITY OF VIRGINIA BEACH AGENDA ITEM ITEM: Resolution Extending and Renaming the Shore Drive Advisory Committee and Reaffirming its Mission MEETING DATE: November 28,2006 . Background: The City Council established the Shore Drive Advisory Committee (SDAC) in February, 1998. The Mission of the SDAC as redefined by the City Council on February 3, 2004 is to: # Familiarize itself with the Urban Land Institute's Bayfront Study and the various uses associated with development of the Corridor; Develop an aesthetics and urban design plan for the Corridor using the Bayfront Study as a foundation for such plan; Identify a series of recommended projects and actions to implement the aforesaid aesthetics and urban design plan, and to prioritize such projects and plans; Facilitate the establishment of public-private partnerships to achieve the goals and recommendations of the Urban Land Institute's Bayfront Study and the Committee; Investigate alternative funding sources for projects within the Corridor; Engage in public information efforts regarding the Committee's work and efforts; and Monitor the progress of those projects and plans which are implemented. # # # # # # The SDAC continues to perform its duties and responsibilities and performs a vital function assisting the Council in determining the appropriate course of action to take with respect to the Shore Drive (Bayfront) Corridor. In the course of its work over the past year, the Committee has recognized, with significant input from the community, that its mission applies not only to those lands directly fronting on Shore Drive, but also to those adjoining areas that comprise the Shore Drive Corridor Overlay District, as defined in Article 17 of the City Zoning Ordinance. The SDAC and community routinely refer to this larger area as the Bayfront area; hence the recommendation to rename the SDAC accordingly and realign its mission to reflect this relationship with the larger area. The SDAC also needs an extension of time to accomplish the mission with which it has been charged. Shore Drive Advisory Committee Page 2 of 2 . Considerations: The SDAC is currently involved with the review of the relevant laws and studies that have been done in the Bayfront Corridor to determine if there are revisions to be made and continues to provide the assistance to City Council and citizens that is the crux of its mission . Recommendations: Approval of the resolution to extend and rename the Shore Drive Advisory Committee and reaffirm its mission. . Attachment: Resolution Recommended Action: Staff recommends approval.

Paxton & Carolyn P. Joyner to create one (1) lot. The proposed lot does not meet minimum lot width requirements. Property is located at 2821 North Landing Road (GPINs 1493485970; 1493495579). DISTRICT 7 - PRINCESS ANNE MEETING DATE: November 28,2006 . Background: The submitted subdivision plat depicts five parcels, labeled '8' through "E' and a 'Residual Parcel.' Parcels 8, C, D, and the Residual Parcel currently exist. The purpose of this variance is to create a new parcel, shown as E, from Parcel D and the Residual Parcel. There are existing single-family dwellings on Parcels 8, C, D, and the western portion of the Residual Parcel. The combined parcels, 8 through E, have 733.02 feet of frontage on North Landing Road. . Considerations: It is the intent of the applicant to subdivide 1 acre from the Residual Parcel and a portion of Parcel D. The boundaries of Parcel D will be modified to maintain its existing size of 1.05 acres. The proposed new lot (Parcel E) has 105.27 feet of frontage on North Landing Road and 100 feet of lot width at the front yard setback. The required lot width for the Agricultural zoning districts is 150 feet. During the past 40 years, these parcels have been created from and, in one case, recombined with a larger parcel, of which the Residual Parcel on the submitted plat is the currently remaining portion. 8ased on the 1994 amendments to the City Zoning Ordinance for Agricultural districts, "any lot fifteen (15) acres or larger meeting the requirements of section 200(a) of this ordinance lawfully created on or prior to the effective date of this ordinance may be subdivided of right into a total of two (2) building sites provided that each lot satisfies all state and local development regulations," (Section 402(b), City Zoning Ordinance). Since the Residual Parcel was created in 1993 and has over 15 acres, it may, therefore, be subdivided. However, any subdivision must satisfy all state and local regulations. The proposed Parcel E cannot satisfy the local zoning regulations, as the lot width does not meet the required 150 feet. The past subdivisions of the larger parcel have resulted in lot widths along North Landing Road that cannot support another lot under the requirements of the Agricultural zoning districts. Further, the combined frontage of all of the existing parcels, 733.2 feet, is not sufficient to allow for five parcels that meet the requirement of 150 feet. It is staff's opinion, therefore, that any hardship that exists in this case is self-imposed, and thus, the criteria specified in the James L, & Edyth A. Paxton and Carolyn p, Joyner Page 2 of 2 Subdivision Ordinance for hardship justifying the granting of a variance is not met. The Planning Commission placed this item on the consent agenda because the applicant provided a petition from surrounding residents supporting the request, and there was no opposition from the public at the hearing. . Recommendations: The Planning Commission passed a motion by a recorded vote of 9-0 to approve this request. .

White REQUEST: Subdivision Variance to Section 4.4(b) of the Subdivision Ordinance that requires all newly created lots meet all the requirements of the City Zoning Ordinance. The parcel proposed for creation does not meet the required lot width of 150 feet; therefore, a variance is requested.

Parcels B, C, D, and the Residual Parcel currently exist. The purpose of this variance is to create a new parcel, E, from Parcel D and the Residual Parcel. The combined parcels have 733.02 feet of frontage on North Landing Road, distributed as follows: . Eastern portion of Residual Parcel: . Parcel D (platted in 1993): . Parcel C (platted in 1973): .

There is an 8- inch City gravity sanitary sewer main and a 16-inch City force main in North Landing Road at this location. The proposed parcel must connect to City water and sewer service. Section 9.3 of the Subdivision Ordinance states: No variance shall be authorized by the Council unless it finds that: A. 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. PAXTON AND JO Agenda It P 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 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. EVALUATION AND RECOMMENDATION Recommendation: Staff recommends denial of this request. Evaluation: During the past 40 years, parcels have been created from and, in one case, recombined with a larger parcel, of which the Residual Parcel on the submitted plat is the currently remaining portion. Based on the 1994 amendments to the Agricultural districts "any lot fifteen (15) acres or larger meeting the requirements of section 200(a) of this ordinance lawfully created on or prior to the effective date of this ordinance may be subdivided of right into a total of two (2) building sites provided that each lot satisfies all state and local development regulations," (Section 402(b), City Zoning Ordinance). Since the Residual Parcel was created in 1993 and has over 15 acres, it may, therefore, be subdivided. However, any subdivision must satisfy all state and local regulations. The proposed Parcel E cannot satisfy the local zoning regulations, as the lot width does not meet the required 150 feet. The past subdivisions of the larger parcel have resulted in lot widths along North Landing Road that cannot support another lot under the requirements of the Agricultural zoning districts, Further, the combined frontage of all of the existing parcels, 733,2 feet, is not sufficient to allow for five parcels that meet the requirement of 150 feet. It is staff's opinion, therefore, that any hardship that exists in this case is self-imposed.

Al Henley: This is a subdivision variance for Section 4.4(b) of the Subdivision Ordinance that requires all newly created lots meet all the requirements of the City Zoning Ordinance. The location of the address is 2821 North Landing Road. For the past 40 years, the City of Virginia Beach has studied the agricultural area and has made some new recommendations and changes to the past recommendations. This particular parcel has been in the family for a number of years, and the applicant wishes the grandson to, and if I'm understanding it, to build a residential home there and reside on the family property. Due to the agriculture big changes, this particular site does not meet the 150 foot minimum road frontage. It is just barely under that. Due to this change in the requirements of the Agriculture District, the applicant has worked with the neighbors and the area where the people are living in a particular area. They have all signed a petition and they are completely in favor of this. So, based on the hard work of the property owner, the long time good standing with the neighborhood, the Planning Commission is recommending approval on this application. Thank you. Janice Anderson: Thank you Mr. Henley. Mr. Chairman, I have a motion to approve the following agenda item for consent. It is agenda item #19. Barry Knight: Thank you. We have a motion on the table. Do I have a second? Mr. Henry Livas has seconded it. Is there any discussion? There is a motion on the floor to approve the consent agenda item by Jan Anderson and a second by Henry Livas. I'll call for the question. Item #19 James L. & Edyth A. Paxton & Carolyn P.

The property is located at 2100 McComas Way (GPIN 2414072637). DISTRICT 7 - PRINCESS ANNE MEETING DATE: November 28, 2006 . Background: On August 14, 2001, the City Council granted a Conditional Use Permit allowing a stealth monopole communication tower to be constructed adjacent to an existing mini-warehouse facility on the site. The Conditional Use Permit has four (4) conditions. Condition 1 set a maximum height of 90 feet. The applicant is now requesting that the height of the monopole be increased 10 feet. As the height is limited by Condition 1, a modification to the existing Conditional Use Permit is required. . Considerations: The applicant is proposing to add a ten (10) foot extension to the existing stealth- styled communication tower. The proposed extension will have internally mounted antennas and will match the design of the existing pole. The proposed extension will enhance wireless service for their customers in this service area. The applicant has submitted a structural report that indicates the existing tower is capable of supporting the proposed ten (10) foot extension. Visual impacts to the surrounding area were a great concern when the original Conditional Use Permit for the tower was requested in 2001, and thus the use of a stealth tower with internal antennas. The stealth tower is located on the property on a portion of the site that is not highly visible to General Booth Boulevard and will remain in its current location with the same design. The conditions below recommend approval, subject to maintaining the existing stealth design and a maximum height limit of 100 feet. The Planning Commission placed this item on the consent agenda because the proposed 10 foot extension to the existing stealth styled tower will have internally mounted antennas and will match the design of the existing tower, and there was no opposition. . Recommendations: The Planning Commission passed a motion by a recorded vote of 9-0 to approve this request with the following conditions: Richmond 20MHz, L.L.C. dba NTELOS Page 2 of 2 1. All conditions with the exception of Number 1 attached to the Conditional Use Permit granted by the City Council on August 14, 2001, shall remain in affect. 2. Condition Number 1 of the August 14, 2001, Conditional Use Permit is deleted and replaced with the following: The tower shall be designed as a stealth monopole tower no greater than 100 feet in height as shown on the site plan by JM& T Engineering, dated 07/27/06 exhibited to the Virginia Beach City Council and is on file in the Virginia Beach Planning Department. .

Property is located at 4980 Virginia Beach Boulevard (GPIN 1477053539). DISTRICT 4- BAYSIDE MEETING DATE: November 28,2006 . Background: The site is currently used as a motor vehicle sales facility. On November 9,2004, the City Council granted the applicant a Conditional Use Permit permitting a bulk storage yard at the northern end of the site, a 4,500 square foot service area addition on the rear of the building, a 720 square foot car wash on the rear of the building (for dealership use only), and a 2,000 square foot addition on the front of the building. That Conditional Use Permit has eight (8) conditions. . Considerations: Conditions 1 and 2 of the 2004 Use Permit tie the site layout and building elevations to those depicted on the concept plan and elevations submitted at that time. Any modification requires additional review and approval by the City Council; therefore, the applicant is requesting a modification to the Use Permit. The current request is to allow an additional 1,456 square feet of service reception area on the front the building and to expand the previously approved addition on the rear of the building from one (1) story to two (2) stories. The exterior building materials and color scheme will match that of the existing structure, largely consisting of a beige exterior insulated finishing system (EIFS). The proposal is in conformance with the Comprehensive Plan's recommendations for this area. The Plan's land use policies recognize Virginia Beach Boulevard as one of the city's major commercial and economically viable corridors. This portion of the Virginia Beach Boulevard corridor is highly commercialized with many auto related uses. The applicant's proposed expansions of the service areas are acceptable as they are compatible with nearby motor vehicle related uses and will contribute to enhancing services to the city. As was the case in 2004, this proposal will improve the disorderly storage of vehicles currently occurring on the northern portion of this site and will improve the aesthetics for the residential properties to the north. The proposed automobile repair garage expansions and bulk storage request is appropriate on this site, provided the conditions, which are crafted to improve the site's appearance both immediately and over the long term, are attached. Phillips Motors of Virginia Beach, Inc. Page 2 of 2 The Planning Commission placed this item on the consent agenda because the requested modifications are as appropriate and compatible with the surrounding area as the 2004 approval, the use is consistent with the recommendations of the Comprehensive Plan for this corridor, and there was no opposition. . Recommendations: The Planning Commission passed a motion by a recorded vote of 9-0 to approve this request with the following conditions: 1. All conditions with the exception of Number 1 and Number 2 attached to the Conditional Use Permit granted by the City Council on November 9,2004, shall remain in affect. 2. Condition Number 1 of the November 9,2004, Conditional Use Permit is deleted and replaced with the following: The site shall be developed substantially in conformance with the submitted plan entitled, "Conceptual Site Layout of Phillips Volvo," prepared by MSA, P.C., dated 9/05/06, which has been exhibited to the Virginia Beach City Council and is on file in the Virginia Beach Planning Department 3. Condition Number 2 of the November 9,2004, Conditional Use Permit is deleted and replaced with the following: The proposed building additions, identified on the site plan described in Condition 1, shall be built in substantial conformance with the elevations entitled, "Proposed Elevations for Phillips Volvo, Service Reception Bay and Service Expansion Bay," dated September 25, 2006. 4. Final occupancy shall not be granted on any building addition until the bulk storage yard is improved and constructed as depicted on the concept layout plan identified in Condition Number 1 above. .

Condition 1 and 2 ties the site layout and building elevations to those depicted on the approved concept plan and elevations. Any modification requires additional review and approval; therefore, the applicant is requesting a modification to the Use Permit. This request is to allow an additional 1 ,456 square feet of service reception area on the front the building and to expand the previously approved addition on the rear of the building from one (1) story to two (2) stories. The exterior building materials and color scheme will match that of the existing structure, largely consisting of a beige exterior insulated finishing system (EIFS).

Recommendation: Staff recommends approval of this requested modification, as conditioned below. EVALUATION AND RECOMMENDATION Evaluation: The most recent modification to the existing Conditional Use Permit was approved by City Council on November 9, 2004. That approval was specifically for a bulk storage yard at the northern end of the site, a 4,500 square foot service area addition on the rear of the building, a 720 square foot car wash on the rear of the building (for dealership use only), and a 2,000 square foot addition on the front of the building. While a site plan for that work has been approved by the Planning Department / Development Services Center, none of the additions or improvements of the 2004 approval have been constructed. The currently requested modification reaffirms the 2004 approval with the following changes: a 1,456 square foot addition to the front of the building intended to increase the vehicle service reception area on the southwest side of the structure; and, a two (2) story addition, rather than a one (1) story addition as currently approved, at the rear of the building. The exterior building materials and color scheme will match that of the existing structure, which is a beige exterior insulated finishing system (EIFS). The proposal is in conformance with the Comprehensive Plan's recommendations for this area. The Plan's land use policies recognize Virginia Beach Boulevard as one of the cityDs major commercial and economically viable corridors. This portion of the Virginia Beach Boulevard corridor is highly commercialized with many auto related uses. The applicant's proposed expansions of the service areas are acceptable as they are compatible with nearby motor vehicle related uses and will contribute to enhancing services to the city.

The proposed automobile repair garage expansions and bulk storage request is appropriate on this site, provided the conditions below, which are crafted to improve the site's appearance both immediately and over the long term, are attached. CONDITIONS 1. All conditions with the exception of Number 1 and Number 2 attached to the Conditional Use Permit granted by the City Council on November 9, 2004, shall remain in affect. 2.

Modification of Conditions 4980 Virginia Beach Boulevard District 4 Bayside October 11, 2006 CONSENT Janice Anderson: The next item is agenda item # 14. This is an application of Phillips Motors of Virginia Beach, Inc. This is for a Modification of Conditions that were approved by Council in 2004 on property located at 4980 Virginia Beach Boulevard, Bayside District. Mike Perry: Good afternoon Chairman and members of the Planning Commission, my name is Michael Perry. I'm a local landscape architect. I'm representing Phillips Motors. We have reviewed the conditions and they are acceptable to us. Janice Anderson: Thank you. = Mike Perry: I would like to thank Ms. Carolyn Smith for the hard work that she put into those conditions and the way they were worded. Janice Anderson: Thank you. Is there any opposition to this application being placed on the consent agenda? Therefore, the Chairman has asked Ron Ripley to review this application. Ronald Ripley: This is a modification of an existing Conditional Use Permit. A lot of times, adjustments are made to Conditional Use Permits, and this is a plan that has changed a little bit. The change was considered of such significance that it would violate, I think the original intent, so it was a recommendation by staff that it be approved, and the Commission felt that it should to be on consent because it seemed relatively routine. Janice Anderson: Thank you Mr. Ripley. Mr. Chairman, I have a motion to approve the following agenda item for consent. It is agenda item #14. Barry Knight: Thank you. We have a motion on the table. Do I have a second? Mr. Henry Livas has seconded it. Is there any discussion? There is a motion on the floor to approve the consent agenda item by Jan Anderson and a second by Henry Livas.

Owens and Virginia L. Owens for a Modification of the Proffers of a Change of Zoning approved by City Council on January 14,1980. Property is located at 317 South Witchduck Road). DISTRICT 2 - KEMPSVILLE MEETING DATE: November 28,2006 . Background: The site is located at the northern end of the commercial and office node located at the intersection of the Princess Anne Road with Witchduck and Kempsville Roads. The building on the site is the Carraway House, one of the original homes in Kempsville (circa 1733). A Historic and Cultural District zoning overlay was placed on the property as part of a Conditional Change of Zoning from R-5R Residential District to B-2 Community Business District was approved by the City Council on January 14, 1980. Additional proffers of that rezoning included restoration of the home and limitation of uses. . Considerations: Proffer 1 of the 1980 rezoning allows only those uses that are permitted in the R- 5R Residential District on the site. The applicants, however, recently discovered that they have been unknowingly operating a real estate office on the site for approximately twelve years; thus, deletion of Proffer 1 is requested. If the structure on the site was restored to its original appearance, Proffer 2 also allowed the property to be used as a retail shop for the sale of antique, antique reproductions and related items and accessories. Since the applicants operate a real estate office on the site, they request modification of Proffer 2 to allow the continuation of the real estate business or other similar unobtrusive office uses, such as a business studio, an office, or a clinic, all of which have equal to or less intensity than the currently operating real estate office. The Planning Commission placed this item on the consent agenda because the modification would make the property's actual use conform to the zoning and proffers, staff recommended approval, and there was no opposition. . Recommendations: The Planning Commission passed a motion by a recorded vote of 9-0 to approve this request as proffered. James E. & Virginia L. Owens Page 2 of 2 .

ADDRESS I DESCRIPTION: Property located at 317 S. Witchduck Road. GPIN: 1467706098 COUNCIL ELECTION DISTRICT: 2 - KEMPSVILLE SITE SIZE: 35,790 square feet or 0.8 acres The Conditional Rezoning from R-5R Residential District to B- 2 Community Business District was approved by the City Council on January 14, 1980. The proffers are as follows: SUMMARY OF REQUEST 1. All of the uses and structures permitted in the R-5 Residential District shall be permitted on the Property to the same degree and with all the requirements as if the Property were zoned R-5 Residential District. 2. The building which exists upon the Property as of the date hereof, may be used as a retail shop for the sale of antiques, antique reproductions and related items and accessories, provided said building is restored by the Grantor or its agents or assigned so as to resemble its former appearance as of the early 1800's. 3. The Property shall not be used for any use allowed in the B-2 Community Business District except as permitted in paragraph 2 above. The Grantor shall provide standard improvements as required by the Site Plan Ordinance of the City of Virginia Beach. 4, The Grantor shall provide City water and sewer service to the Property. 5. The Grantor shall dedicate a variable right-of-way along South Witchduck Road. JAMES E. & VI 6. The Grantor hereby agrees to the designation of the Property as a historical and cultural district pursuant to the Comprehensive Zoning Ordinance of the City of Virginia Beach. Despite the fact that the site is zoned B-2 Community Business, Proffer 1 allows only those uses that are permitted in the R-5R Residential District on the site. The applicant, however, has been operating a real estate office on the site for approximately twelve years, and thus requests the deletion of Proffer 1. In addition to the uses allowed in the R-5R Residential District, Proffer 2 allowed the property to be used as a retail shop for the sale of antique, antique reproductions and related items and accessories, if the structure on the site was restored to its original appearance. Since the applicant operates a real estate office on the site, Proffer 2 is requested for modification to allow the continuation of the real estate business or other unobtrusive office uses. No changes are requested to the existing site or building.

AICUZ: The site is in an AICUZ of less than 65 dB Ldn surrounding NAS Oceana. IMPACT ON CITY SERVICES MASTER TRANSPORTATION PLAN (MTP) I CAPITAL IMPROVEMENT PROGRAM (CIP): S. Witchduck Road in the vicinity of this application is considered a four-lane undivided minor urban arterial. The Master Transportation Plan (MTP) proposes a divided 165 foot. Two Capital Improvement Program (CIP) projects are slated for this area (CIP No. 2-048 and 2-931). CIP 2-048 involves the reconstruction of the Princess Anne Road/Kempsville Road/Witchduck Road intersection to increase the capacity of the intersection and eliminate current congestion problems. Currently, construction is scheduled between June, 2008 and June, 2010. CIP 2-931 involves the construction of South JAMES E. & VIRGINIA OWENS Agenda I 6 2 Witchduck Road from Princess Anne Road to 1-264, creating a six-lane divided facility with aesthetic improvements. Currently, construction is scheduled between July, 2011 and July, 2013. TRAFFIC: Street Name Present Present Capacity Generated Traffic Volume S. Witchduck 28,184 ADT 1 14,800 ADT 1 (Level of No Change Road Service "C") 22,800 ADT 1 (Level of Service "D") I capacity 27,400 ADT 1 (Level of Service "E") I Average Dally Trips Recommendation: Staff recommends approval of this request with the submitted proffers. EVALUATION AND RECOMMENDATION Comprehensive Plan: The site is located within a Primary Residential Area where the established type, size and relationship of land uses, both residential and non-residential, in and around neighborhood areas should serve as the guide when considering future development proposals. This site is also located in an area covered by the Historic Kempsville Area Master Plan. The vision for the Historic Kempsville area is to recreate a village setting, building on the natural surroundings and historic character and importance of the area. Evaluation: The applicant's request to modify the proffers is in keeping with the intent of the Comprehensive Plan and the Kempsville Area Master Plan. The proposal is compatible with the adjacent residential neighborhood as well as the business areas. Limited commercial or institutional activities providing desired goods or services to residential neighborhoods are acceptable uses on the edge of established neighborhoods provided effective measures are taken to ensure compatibility and non-proliferation of such activities. The applicant has been operating a real estate office on this site for approximately 12 years, though in contradiction to the uses allowed on the site under the 1980 rezoning. The lack of any complaints to the Planning Department during those 12 years regarding the real estate office demonstrates that such a low- intensity use can operate compatibility with the surrounding area. Thus, under the modified proffers, even though the site will be zoned B-2 Community Business, Proffer 2 will limit the use of the site to a retail shop for the sale of antiques, antique reproductions and related items and accessories, a business studio, an office, or a clinic, all of which have equal to or less intensity than the currently operating real estate office. JAMES E. & VI 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," (91 07(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 number "1" in the 1980 Proffers is hereby deleted and acknowledged to be inapplicable to the Property. PROFFER 2: Proffer numbered "2" in the 1980 Proffers is amended to read: The Property may be used as a retail shop for the sale of antiques, antique reproductions and related items and accessories, business studios, offices and clinics. PROFFER 3: All of the terms, conditions, covenants, servitudes and agreements set forth in the 1980 Proffers recorded in the Clerk's Office of the Circuit Court of the City of Virginia Beach, Virginia, in Deed Book 2068, at Page 76, save and except, Proffers 1 and 2, as specifically deleted, amended and modified herein, shall remain in force and effect, running with the Property and binding upon the Property and upon all parties and persons claiming under, by or through the Grantors, their heirs, personal representatives, assigns, tenants, and other successors in interest or title. STAFF COMMENTS: The proffers listed above are acceptable as they reflect the use of the site and provide for low-intensity uses that are equally compatible to the surrounding area as the existing use. The City Attorney's Office has reviewed the proffer agreement dated June 28, 2006, and found it to be legally sufficient and in acceptable legal form. NOTE: Further conditions may be required during the administration of applicable City Ordinances. Plans submitted with this rezoning application may require revision during detailed site plan review to meet all applicable City Codes and Standards. 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.

And as a modification, we agree with our proffers. Janice Anderson: Thank you. Is there any opposition to this matter being placed on the consent agenda?

The 1980 Change of Zoning indicated that the site building could be utilized for R-5R Residential District functions for the sales of antiques and antique reproductions, and related items and accessories. The applicant however, has been operating a real estate office on the site for approximately 20 years in contradiction to the uses allowed under the 1980 rezoning. Due to the lack of complaints, we recommend that the 1980 proffers wanting to be modified to make the properties actual use compatible with zoning. Janice Anderson: Thank you Mr. Livas.

This is for a Conditional Use Permit for a communication tower on property located at 1200 Communications Circle in the Bayside District. Welcome Mr. Gambrell. Bill Gambrell: Ms. Anderson and members of the Planning Commission, for the record, , my name is Bill Gambrell. I'm a local land planner, and I represent the applicant. We have reviewed the conditions, and they are all acceptable. There is one small change. Condition #4 says, "shall be a spun concrete pole." We have asked the staff, and they are agreeable to changing that to a monopole tower. Sometimes the spun concrete poles are a little trickier to get three users on them. ~ Janice Anderson: What condition? Bill Gambrell: Condition #4, we would just request that we would change "the proposed tower shall not exceed 120 feet in overall height," which is fine, and "shall be a monopole tower that meets or exceeds." We may well use a concrete pole structure, but we wanted the flexibility in order to be able to get the extra users on there if that becomes a problem for us. Janice Anderson: Okay. Ronald Ripley: Does that affect the top of the array antennas that you use? Bill Gambrell: Not at all. Ronald Ripley: For a satellite feed for receiving signal. Bill Gambrell: Not at all. It really affects nothing. It is just that the ports on the concrete poles sometimes are not lined up so we have the option of getting additional cables inside. Janice Anderson: Is there any opposition to this application being placed on the consent agenda? Therefore, the Chairman has asked Ron Ripley to review this application. Item #8 T-Mobile Northeast, L.L.c. Page 2 Ronald Ripley: Thank you. This is an application that was recommended for approval by the staff, and the Commission reviewed it and felt it was worthy to be on the consent agenda. We did not find any issues that it should not be on the consent agenda. It is basically a communication tower that is being placed near the intersection of Northampton Boulevard and Diamond Springs Road. It is actually replacing a couple of towers, I believe, that are being taken down in that area and replaced with the pole that we just discussed. So, we put it on the consent agenda because it seemed pretty routine. Janice Anderson: Thank you Mr. Ripley. Mr. Chairman, I have a motion to approve the following agenda item for consent. It is agenda item # 8. Barry Knight: Thank you. Is that with a change of item #8, condition #4 from spun concrete to monopole? Janice Anderson: Yes. Barry Knight: Thank you. We have a motion on the table. Do I have a second? Mr. Henry Livas has seconded it. Is there any discussion? There is a motion on the floor to approve the consent agenda item by Jan Anderson and a second by Henry Livas. I'll call for the question. ~ AYE 9 NAY 0 ABSO ABSENT 2 ANDERSON AYE BERNAS AYE CRABTREE AYE HENLEY AYE KA TSIAS AYE KNIGHT AYE LIVAS AYE RIPLEY AYE STRANGE AYE WALLER ABSENT WOOD ABSENT Ed Weeden: By a vote of 9-0, the Board has approved item #8 for consent. r ~1"', ,{~""'c4'" "J~f;#~... rd"'~I' ".::t' ~!~f '~;.'- \~\ '.':!~ :... \f~...,.~.,:::l! ........;;..:........~ '"" \... CITY OF VIRGINIA BEACH AGENDA ITEM ~ ITEM: Application of FF Acquisition, L.L.C. for a Conditional Use Permit for fuel sales on property located at 1021 Independence Boulevard (GPIN 1478464114). DISTRICT 4 - BAYSIDE MEETING DATE: November 28,2006 . Background: The applicant requests a Conditional Use Permit to allow the installation of four (4) fuel dispensers and a canopy within the existing parking lot of the Haygood Shopping Center. The center is undergoing renovation with the addition of new facades on the buildings and landscaping within the parking areas. The proposed fueling center will be an adjunct to the Farm Fresh Grocery Store, which recently opened in the center. The facility will be manned and open to the general public. . Considerations: The submitted site plan exhibit depicts the proposed canopy and fuel stations in the northern portion of the site, adjacent to Haygood Road. The canopy over the pumps will be 40 feet from Haygood Road and between 80 to 85 feet from the main Farm Fresh building. Extensive landscaping will be installed to match that recently installed throughout the shopping center. The submitted rendering depicts an attractive, quality design compatible with the Haygood Shopping Center. The proposed design mitigates any potential negative impacts due to light pollution, signage, and safety concerns as found with some existing uses in the surrounding commercial area. The use of brick columns and a green standing seam metal roof mimic the materials used to improve the fac;ade of the shopping center. The proposed service will provide an added convenience to the public within the immediate area, as only five (5) fueling facilities exist along Independence Boulevard between Virginia Beach Boulevard and Shore Drive. The conditions recommended with the use permit provide safeguards that the proposed canopy and fuel operation will not adversely impact nor be aesthetically unappealing to the surrounding properties. There was opposition to the request. . Recommendations: The Planning Commission passed a motion by a recorded vote of 9-0 to approve this request with the following conditions: FF Acquisition, L.L.C. Page 2 of 2 1. The proposed canopy and fueling stations shall be located substantially as depicted on the submitted "Exhibit for Farm Fresh - Gas Pumps, Haygood Shopping Center, Independence Boulevard and Haygood Road, Virginia Beach, VA", prepared by MSA, P.C., and dated 7/25/06, which has been exhibited to the Virginia Beach City Council, and is on file with the Virginia Beach Department of Planning. 2. The canopy shall be constructed in substantial conformance with the rendering submitted with the Use Permit application. The canopy shall be constructed with a standing seam metal roof and brick columns that match the existing shopping center fa<;ade. Said rendering has been exhibited to the Virginia Beach City Council, and is on file with the Virginia Beach Department of Planning. 3. There shall be no signage, lettering, clocks, striping, or logo recognition (either through the use of slogans, lettering or colors) on any part of the canopy, including the canopy supports. The canopy shall remain clear of any advertisement except for the sign identifying the operator. 4. The applicant shall provide a photometric plan for review and approval by City staff. Flush-mounted or full cut-off lenses shall be used for the canopy lighting. Canopy lighting levels shall be a maintained average of 30 foot candles (fc). All lighting on the site should be consistent with those standards recommended by the Illumination Engineering Society. 5. There shall be no outdoor vending machines, ice boxes, or the display of merchandise anywhere within the facility area. .

Conditional Use Permit 1021 Independence Boulevard District 4 Bayside October 11, 2006 REGULAR Joseph Strange: The next item is item #20, FF Acquisition, L.L.C. Application of FF Acquisition, L.L.c. for a Conditional Use Permit for fuel sales on property located at 1021 Independence Boulevard, District 4, Bayside, with five conditions. RJ. Nutter: Thank you very much Mr. Chairman and Members of the Commission, my name is R.J. Nutter, and I'm an attorney representing FF Acquisition, L.L.C. With me today is Mike Perry, who is taking a short break after the last presentation, with MSA, and Mike Griffith, who is FF Acquisition. For those who don't know, FF Acquisition is the branch of Farm Fresh that is responsible for all your store construction, renovations, new acquisitions, and landholders. Anyway, that is why we filed in that name. As you know, this shopping center, Haygood Shopping Center, has undergone a large measure, as a result of Farm Fresh, a multi-million dollar renovation that has resulted in a newly landscaped, beautifully new shopping parking area that did not meet condition #4, even though it would have been grand-fathered in, but they went ahead and agreed to do the landscaping in the center regardless. In addition. Farm Fresh is a by-right activity that elected to build a beautiful store. One of the largest stores in fact, with all their new amenities, including, I might add, valet parking in this facility that is going to be available for the shoppers, as it will in many of their other stores. When they were doing that, looking for this location, one of the reasons they selected was it had terrific access. This shopping center is a large B-2 area entirely. It is zoned complete B-2. It is almost entirely unconditional B-2. It has two access points off of Haygood Road. It has a large lighted access point off Independence, and a lighted access off Honeygrove to the south of the shopping center, as well. I see your reading that letter. I'm going to let you have a few minutes to do that. The gentleman who wrote the letter came early, but he had to leave. He said that he couldn't stay. He was on the clock he said but I directed him to Faith and she made copies of the letter. I believe there is one gentleman here in opposition, and that is why we didn't try to get back on consent. , So, for the purpose of that individual I would like to share some of the facts about this. We looked at the site and one of the reasons they selected it was because of terrific access off of Independence, Haygood, and the street to the south, which is Honeygrove. In addition to that, they had sufficient room and parking availability to add a gas facility, which Farm Fresh is the only grocery store in this area that provides, with the possible exception of Wal-mart and/or Sam's Club and BJ's. In terms of the grocery stores that are not scaled, this is the only grocery that offers this. It is a unique service for its customers. I tell you this because the tranquility is a very low volume user. If you were to come in as a freestanding gas station, frankly the Item #20 FF Acquisition, L.L.c. Page 2 = numbers wouldn't make any sense. It wouldn't be able to meet a business model for a standalone gas facility. They just don't have that kind of volume. To give you an idea the volume is anywhere, depending to what you compare it to, and particularly for this one which is having four fueling stations, is anywhere from one-fifth to one-third the typical amount of gas sales at a Wawa or a gas station. So considerably lower. The other that I will share with you about it is that it is designed predominately for Farm Fresh customers. While they do not limit it to those, they are designed primarily for those customers. I will tell you how it works. When you go in and buy products from Farm Fresh, many of those products have discounts available on gas. It depends on which products and the quantity on which you buy them. They will go to check out and you ring out, and it will then tell you how many cents per gallon you have saved on that transaction. You then take your receipt from Farm Fresh, and there is a bar code at the bottom of it, and you swipe that and that reader card at that facility and that reduces your price per gallon of gas. The price reduction per gallon is significant. It is not three or four cents, but it can be as little as that if you buy a particular item, but typically they range anywhere from $.20 cents reduction per gallon up to as much as $1.00 off per gallon. So, as you can see there are significant benefits for Farm Fresh customers. The principal users are Farm Fresh users, and the result is people coming to this center to go to the brand new multi-million dollar Farm Fresh are going there. They will be driving to this location. They are going to go to this facility. It is not to say that the general public won't go there, but it is to say that it is probably oriented towards them. That is why, frankly the volume of gas sold are lower than a typical gas station. So, I say that because I know traffic has been an issue. I want to let people know that it is a low volume use. Another interesting thing is if you look at this, there is plenty of room to add a freestanding site. We can a restaurant, a Starbucks. The owners of the centers could add a Starbucks, as with any of the by-right users in B-2 activities can draw substantially more traffic than this particular location. We only relying the existing access roads to the center. This facility has no independent curb cut. It has no independent access to Haygood Road or any other center It solely internally accessed through the shopping center and interior roadways. So, it is not adding any additional curb cuts on Haygood Road at all. There are a couple of things that I would like to share with you about it. It is in compliance with your Comprehensive Plan. Your staff has recommended approval. I think I told you about the volume of use. One other thing that I would like to add for you is that is simply a gas operation. Many of the stores that you're used to today are convenience, 7-Eleven, Wawa, and so forth. This has none of those facilities. This is gas-sales only. In fact, the restrictions imposed by staff even eliminate coke machines from this facility. It is strictly gas. You're not going to pull in here and get a pack of cigarettes, soft drink or anything else. They are simply not available. I say that to you because the first item on your agenda today, which you approved on consent agenda was Wawa at Indian River Road, and they are a complete Wawa operation with multi fueling facilities and convenience store with the Harris Teeter store as the anchor. So, I will tell you that this is something that if you put it in comparison the use of this facility is dramatically, dramatically lower than others. If I could, two things I would like to comment on. The first is the conditions are acceptable with minor deviation. Condition Item #20 FF Acquisition, L.L.c. Page 3 = #3 relates to the signage on the facility. This language is fine except that we would like to add one sentence at the end, and I will tell you where the sentence comes from. A facility likes this exists at identical fashion at the Strawbridge Shopping Center off of General Bridge Boulevard. Weare allowed at that location to have advertising on the canopy identifying the store operator, in this case Farm Fresh. In fact, I brought along with me copies of those conditions from the 2005 approval, actually February 2005 adding that exact language if we could. I brought along and I'll be happy to pass out to you. While I address the second issue. I've underlined that particular sentence. The second thing is to try to address the gentleman's letter that you were reading earlier. He had asked us to, and I spoke to him before he left. He said, we love the Farm Fresh, but we would like for you to consider not having it here and trying to acquire the Getty site at the corner. The Getty site, if you will, which is in essence vacant from a Use perspective, however, regrettably the Getty site is under a long-term lease. Also, there is a first right refusal from, in essence from Getty Oil, in this case the owner of that right is actually Luke Oil Company, which is an oil company, which is owned and operated and based in the Soviet Union. The owners of the shopping center, which we happen to represent, have tried on numerous occasions to get release of that site, and simple we can't get it. We tried using it for other purposes over in the gas station. We simply can't get any use or release of the first refusal or of the lease that is on that site today. That site is not available to us. I know that many of you live in that area and travel by that area. You probably want to know what is going on with that site? It is tied up with that situation. So, that is not an available site. This is a terrific site. It has no independent access. It is only internally access. It is a dramatically lower volume user than either by-right activity or anything close to it from a typical gas station, as I indicated to you. So, the other thing, finally, most of the customers that will come to this gas facility will be Farm Fresh customers, and most of these Farm Fresh customers will be people who live in close proximity of this. This is going to be a terrific benefit to them. Typically, we have gone through some big hole price increases here lately. I will tell you that everyone in that area is going to want to avail themselves of their shopping purchase at Farm Fresh to try and use this. So, if there is opposition, I would tell you that you are going to have a lot of support for this from the customers and people in the area. I'll be happy to answer any questions that Mr. Chairman, you and the other Commissioners might have. Barry Knight: Are there any questions for Mr. Nutter? Not at this time. RJ. Nutter: Yes sir. Thank you very much. Joseph Strange: Speaking in opposition we have John Hanson. Barry Knight: We1come sir. John Hanson: I'm John Hanson, with Hanson and Associates. I'm a business owner across the street from this, and also a resident of Lake Smith Terrace. I did speak with Tom Klein, who represented Farm Fresh in reference to this last Friday. He and, I think Item #20 FF Acquisition, L.L.c. Page 4 one of the architects or engineers for Farm Fresh wanted to talk to me about this. The problem there is not so much the gas station but it's the traffic. The traffic at that corner of Twain Lane and I'll point it out to you, right there, and coming from the shopping center, and coming from... there is a McDonald's here. There is a feeder that runs behind McDonald's to Taylor's Do It Center. There are two entrances and access to McDonald's. I have been in this building for 28 years. We've seen numerous accidents either coming from the shopping center or coming from Taylor's Do It Center or from Twain Lane, probably on average of two a month. On Haygood Road, the city records indicate from Wesleyan Drive, which is by Bayside High School to Independence Boulevard there are 20,000 cars a day. To put a fueling station there, it is just going to increase the traffic. There is no traffic control except they have a turn lane that comes in and people coming out of the feeder road from McDonald's and from Taylor's Do It Center, try to make a left hand turn to get to Independence Boulevard. A lot of the accidents occur there. Traffic coming out of the shopping center. You have to sit there and wait to cross the street to make a left hand turn. I'm opposed to the application because for that. I might note that the Lake Smith Civic League just found out about this just last week. They are opposed to it also. I've talked with Al Wallace, the President. They were all under the impression it was going to go on the corner of the old Getty Mart. Barry Knight: Are there any questions for Mr. Hanson. Thank you sir. Mr. Nutter. = R.J. Nutter: Very briefly. Mr. Klein works in my office. Mr. Klein and Mr. Perry did go and meet with Mr. Hanson last week. We explained everything to him. And they did ask him to try to separate the issues from this, because it is a low volume user, from the traffic problem that he is experiencing from this movement. I didn't realize it but this a back way for people coming out of Taylor Do It Center and McDonald's. Because it is difficult to come turn here and not make a u-turn, they frequently come out here. Get on Haygood Road and go back into Twain Lane and back through the neighborhood to a light intersection if they are going back in that direction. And, of course we are not affecting that, and we tried to explain that. We also met with Faith Christie, and she called us about opposition from another gentleman in here on this center. And once we met with him, I'll be happy to tell you that once he found out it was located right here and it was designed with a green belt feature here as it is listed in the site plan, that he said he would withdraw his opposition, and that is why he is not here today. Other than that, we are not aware of any other opposition. I told you that by-right activity this is a winner for the neighborhood because it is a substantial reduction and traffic generation what could go there by-right. Barry Knight: Are there any questions for Mr. Nutter? Okay. Thank you. Ronald Ripley: I have a question. Barry Knight: Okay. Item #20 FF Acquisition, L.L.C. Page 5 Ronald Ripley: Mr. Hanson brought up the traffic, and that is an issue at that point of entrance to the shopping center. Is there any restriping or restructuring that can be done to the road that would make that a safer movement? The movement that he is talking about coming out of the center and turning left onto Haygood is a tough movement. If you're traveling on Haygood, I guess in a westerly direction and turning into the center is a tough move. It is really a tough move. Getting across the street is always going to be a hard movement but the left hand turns, have you conducted any traffic studies? R.J. Nutter: We have not actually. In fact, I'll be happy to look at that during the site plan review process to see if some striping activity can concur. I will tell you that so far the numbers on these roadway capacities and fortunately it's Farm Fresh orientation customers, many of the customers that are going to be leaving have multiple ways of getting where. I don't know if you have a larger view but I can try to use this. If you wanted to go down Haygood, you could certainly go this way, but I know Aragona Village for instance, you can come here from the front of the center and you come out to Honeygrove, I think it is and go down and even more directly into their neighborhood. Many of them go that way. Here is Honeygrove. You can come out this way and many access the neighborhoods through here. = Ronald Ripley: I understand that, but if your on that side of the shopping center, typically you couldn't go out that way. I think a lot of people do go down to the where the office park is, and there is an access point there that is used right much. R.J. Nutter: There is an access point. Ronald Ripley: I guess it would be a good question of Rick, if Rick could adjust it. Do you mind coming up and discussing this with us? Rick Lowman: Sure. Ronald Ripley: Do you mind Mr. Chairman? Barry Knight: No. Absolutely. That is what he is here for. Rick Lowman: That is what I am here for. Rick Lowman, Traffic Engineering, City of Virginia Beach. It is a complicated issue. I know that we studied it over the years as far as some of the complaints and really there are a number of access points. The access road around the shopping center, I'm speaking, you know without having to look at that today as one of the issues. The access point coming around the shopping center is a problem because of the proximity to the signalized intersection. It is a pretty busy one. So, looking at it, if we had to do it today where we started with a fresh roadway and we said, where are we going to put the access point to the crossovers, we would probably not allow that access point, not to the shopping center but to the access road that goes around the Taylor Do It Center and the McDonald's. That connection probably would be closed Item #20 FF Acquisition, L.L.c. Page 6 off with a median just because of the left problem that close to the intersection and the stacking. Ronald Ripley: Could you point that out? I understand what you're saying but maybe the other folks don't, that intersection right there (pointing to map). Rick Lowman: That is twenty. It is this roadway right here. See how we stopped the median right there? Ronald Ripley: Yeah. Rick Lowman: The interaction of this and this and this, all that close together. . . all things considered this would be a right in/right out. Right here, this median would be extended back and you would have back to back left turn lanes. This left turn lane would go into the shopping center and this left turn lane would go there. There wouldn't be any interaction right in here with the median you would have. So, I think it is a problem independent of a fueling station. I know that question you ask is what can we do about the situation? But I really don't believe it is going to be exacerbated by the development of a fueling station, if you're looking for that answer as well? = Ronald Ripley: Okay. I guess this isn't as germane, but the Strawbridge site that they went into, that is off of General Booth, have you seen any kind of experience or any kind of problems that particular fueling station has caused that maybe you didn't see before it went in there? Rick Lowman: I can't speak for that one because I really don't know the situation around there. We can't get everywhere. If we don't get complaints then usually we assume that it is working well. So, usually where there are complaints we hear them. Ronald Ripley: Okay. Rick Lowman: But, again that interaction between this driveway and this roadway, the interaction really shouldn't be there. I mean the McDonald's is a heavily used user as well as with that I can tell you because I attend this church, and my wife teaches right down the street. I grew up right around the corner there. That has always been kind of an issue there. I don't believe that this will be exacerbated by adding in a fueling station there. Ronald Ripley: Okay. Barry Knight: Are there any other questions for Rick while he is up here. Thank you Rick. Rick Lowman: Thank you. Item #20 FF Acquisition, L.L.C. Page 7 Barry Knight: Are there any other questions of Mr. Nutter? RJ. Nutter: Can Ijust add one thing, and I didn't put a lot of attention on it, but if you could consider that additional amendment to condition #3. Barry Knight: Mr. Scott? Does the staff have an objection to that added sentence which says, "the canopy shall remain clear of any advertisement except for the sign identifying the operator", i.e. Farm Fresh? I think you got it up Faith, the one at Strawbridge? I assume that is what you're looking for R.J.? RJ. Nutter: Yes sir. I showed it to Faith but I didn't show it to you. I apologize. This is the copy of the approval from General Booth Boulevard. Faith Christie: That is fine. Robert Scott: We're fine. Barry Knight: Thank you. Faith Christie: Can I have a copy of that RJ.? = R.J. Nutter: Yes. Barry Knight: I'll open it up for discussion among the members. Mr. Crabtree. Eugene Crabtree: I'm very well familiar with this area. I'm in that area all the time. I have to use that entrance to Taylor's. That is the way that I usually go to Taylor's and come out, and I do come off of Independence and come into the shopping center that way coming from Bayside. The traffic is fairly there and there is a lot of traffic. With a little patience, I have never had any problem transgressing any of that, whether I was going to Taylor's, or coming out of Taylor's, or coming off of Independence turning into the shopping center. I've never had any difficulty. It does take a little patience and there is a lot of traffic. I, personally and that is what I felt dangerous to me to travel that area. I don't think those folks are going to create, and as I have said before. People don't go ten miles out of the way to buy gas. They just buy gas as they're passing by anyway. And I don't think this is even going to do that. I'm going to support it. Barry Knight: Jan. Janice Anderson: I will be in support too. I believe the shopping center has gone through a facelift and that has helped the area in general. I am in agreement with Mr. Nutter's assessment that it is not really going to add any more traffic, It is going to be through traffic that is either going to stop from the outside streets or the customers that are already Item #20 FF Acquisition, L.L.C. Page 8 on the site. So, when it is appropriate, I will make a recommendation for approval with the modification to condition #3, with an identifying sign of the operator. Barry Knight: We'll accept that as a motion. Is there any other discussion? Do I have a second? Ronald Ripley: I have a discussion. Barry Knight: Okay. There is a second by Joe Strange. We will open it back up for discussion. Mr. Ripley? = Ronald Ripley: As I said in the informal meeting, I had a couple of concerns, and the one was what we have been talking about is the traffic. My first concern that I would like to talk about was the parking and how the relationship of this site and what it could possibly do to the parking. I kind of resolved my thinking. I think this is a reasonably good location now as far as that is concerned. Mr. Hanson, he lives there and works there for all that time. He raises points that we all know. There are tough movements on this site. I think Gene is right to though. I think if you are patient you can make these turns. It does stack up from time to time. I think people find the easiest way out of there too when they need to. They will break out of that line and they will go down further south or they will go out the front. But, for the most part and what is recommended here by staff, and what has been recommended here and what Rick had to say is important too because I didn't completely understand how the Farm Fresh service station would work. It is pretty unique animal as far as fueling is concerned. Given the intensity that is happening in the center now with the revitalization of it, traffic is going to be heavy there, in spite this being there or not.

DISTRICT 2- KEMPSVILLE. MEETING DATE: November 28,2006 . Background: The applicant proposes to consolidate and rezone six parcels currently zoned R- 5D to A-24 Apartment in order to redevelop the site for townhouse-style condominium units with garages. On September 12, 2006, this item was referred back to the Planning Commission by the City Council at the request of the applicant due to incorrect information that was provided to the Planning Commission at their August public hearing. . Considerations: The site plan depicts 55 units on a 5.87 acre site (after roadway dedication), resulting in a density of 9.37 dwelling units per acre. Such density corresponds to the A-12 Apartment District; however, the requirement of the A-12 Apartment District for a maximum of 40 percent lot coverage and 35 feet height limitation would prevent the applicant from providing the proposed larger townhouse-style condominium units with garages. Thus, similar to other recent multi-family rezoning applications, the applicant is proposing use of A-24 zoning since it will allow the proposed lot coverage of 51 percent and the proposed 45 foot roof height (the issue of lot coverage and maximum height for Apartment districts will be addressed with the upcoming revisions to the City Zoning Ordinance). The proffers limit the density to that indicated on the site plan, 9.37 units per acre. Planning Commission heard this application on August 9,2006 and recommended approval of the application based on information presented at the hearing. It was brought to the applicant's attention between the Planning Commission hearing and City Council meeting that the maximum roof height of 36 feet depicted on the architectural design exhibit was actually higher. Based on this information, the applicant requested to be referred back to Planning Commission to explain the roof height differences and receive their recommendation based on the actual facts of the proposal. Kemp Enterprises, Inc. Page 2 of 2 The proposed 55 townhouse units are compatible with the existing predominately residential land use and densities found in the surrounding area. The proposal is in conformance with the Comprehensive Plan's recommendations for this area, as the density of the development is equivalent to the density of the surrounding area. The Planning Commission placed this item on the consent agenda because they concluded the new information regarding the 45 foot maximum height did not change their finding that the proposed development was compatible to the surrounding area, and there was no opposition to the request. . Recommendations: The Planning Commission passed a motion by a recorded vote of 9-0 to approve this request as proffered. .

ADDRESS I DESCRIPTION: Property located on the south side of Bonney Road, approximately 540 feet east of Kenley Road COUNCIL ELECTION DISTRICT: SITE SIZE: 2 - KEMPSVILLE 6.2 acres total before R.O.W. dedication 5.8 acres total after R.O.W. dedication GPINS: 14770098360000; 14770095210000; 14771007570000; 14771017740000; 14771016940000; 14770078400000 - portion of SUMMARY OF REQUEST The applicant proposes to consolidate and rezone six parcels currently zoned R-5D to A-24 Apartment in order to redevelop the site for townhouse-style condominium units with garages. The site plan depicts 55 units on a 5,87 acre site (after dedication), resulting in a density of 9.37 units per acre, which is below the density allowed in the A-12 District. The applicant, however, is requesting A-24 zoning due to the fact that the lot coverage requirements under A-12 zoning will not allow for the design of larger townhouse-style units with garages. This multi-family development is designed around a central park with walking paths, a pergola, unique entrance feature and attractive landscaping. The architecture of the multi-family units is more contemporary in design, with varying roof heights and building elevations that recede and project creating interesting shadow lines. The building materials are vinyl staggered shake siding above a first floor brick base. The roof material is an architectural grade asphalt shingle roof with a standing seam metal roof at the entrances on the end walls, Planning Commission heard this application on August 9, 2006 and recommended approval of the application based on information presented at the hearing. It was brought to the applicant's attention between the Planning Commission hearing and City Council meeting that the maximum roof height of 36 feet depicted on the architectural design exhibit was actually higher. Based on this information, the applicant requested to be referred back to Planning Commission to explain the roof height differences and receive their recommendation based on the actual facts of the proposal.

The number can be positive (additional students) or negative (fewer students), EVALUATION AND RECOMMENDATION Recommendation: Staff recommends approval of this request with the submitted proffers provided below. Comprehensive Plan: The Comprehensive Plan recognizes this site to be within Strategic Growth Area 4. This site is located along the periphery of one of the sub-areas found in Strategic Growth Area 4. This sub-area, known as Bonney Road West Corridor, is centrally located within the city along 1-264 and Virginia Beach Boulevard near key interstate roadway interchanges and is unencumbered by AICUZ high noise or accident potential zones. The Bonney Road West Corridor (South of 1-264) continues to grow economically, and has the potential as a major new development and redevelopment area. Significant public and private investments have been targeted within this general area, Developments within close proximity to the Bonney Road West Corridor should demonstrate exceptional quality in the areas of site planning and building design. Bonney Road West is recommended for mixed use development including medium and medium to high intensity uses. Emphasis should be placed on providing exceptional architecture and site design with attractive landscape treatment. Evaluation: The proposed 55 townhouse units are compatible with the existing predominately residential land use and densities found in the surrounding area. The proposal is in conformance with the Comprehensive Plan's recommendations for this area, as the density of the development is equivalent to the density of the surrounding area, The requirement of the A-12 Apartment District for a maximum of 40 percent lot coverage and 35 feet height limitation would prevent the applicant from providing the larger townhouse-style condominium units with garages. Thus, the applicant is proposing use of A-24 zoning since it will allow the proposed lot coverage of 51 percent and a higher roof height. The proffers limit the density to that indicated on the site plan, 9.37 units per acre. The proposed exterior building materials are complementary with the residential neighborhoods nearby to this property and exhibit the quality called for by the Comprehensive Plan. 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," (91 07(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: When the property is developed, the entrance, streets, landscaping, fencing and open space features shall be substantially in accordance with "Rezoning Exhibit of KEMPS GATE", pages 1 and 2, dated 01/12/06, prepared by Kellam - Gerwitz Engineering, which has been exhibited to the Virginia Beach City Council and is on file with the Virginia Beach Department of Planning ("Concept Plan"). PROFFER 2: Vehicular Ingress and Egress shall be via one (1) entrance from Bonney Road as depicted on the Conceptual Plan. PROFFER 3: When the property is developed, there will be no more than fifty-five (55) residential condominium units, each of which shall have a garage, within eleven (11) buildings as depicted on the Concept Plan. PROFFER 4: When the property is developed, the residential structures depicted on the Concept Plan shall have the architectural design and utilize the building materials substantially as depicted and designated on the three (3) page exhibit entitled "Rezoning Exhibit of Kemps Gate", undated, prepared by Richard L. Grimstead, A.I.A., which has been exhibited to the Virginia Beach City Council and is on file with the Virginia Beach Department of Planning ("Elevations"). 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 COMMENTS: The proffers listed above are acceptable as they dictate the level of quality of the project, its compatibility to the surrounding area, and consistency with the recommendations of the Comprehensive Plan. The City Attorney's Office has reviewed the proffer agreement dated April 20, 2006, and found it to be legally sufficient and in acceptable legal form. NOTE: Further conditions may be required during the administration of applicable City Ordinances. Plans submitted with this rezoning application may require revision during detailed site plan review to meet all applicable City Codes. 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. ,"-"'.,, ,,' ,-...."',:,' KEMP ENTERPRISES,'NC.

At the time of your telephone call on Wednesday, August 9, 2006 I was away from my office and the building elevations with the building heights were not available to me. I attempted to recall the building heights from my memory; however, there are a number of varying roof heights and I am truly sorry that my information was confusing and incomplete. There was no intent to deceive or mislead you or anyone else about the actual building heights. The buildings were designed to confonn to the allowable building heights ofthe proposed A-24 Apartment zoning. The tops of the building's roof ridge lines have three different heights; the top of the end unit apartment roof ridge line is thirty-three (33) feet high, the top of the intermediate roof ridge line is forty (40) feet high and the top of the middle unit apartment roof ridge line is forty-five (45) feet high. I am enclosing a copy of the Front Elevation and Side Elevation indicating the various roof heights. Again I ask you please accept my apology and if you need additional infonnation please contact me.

That is the application of Kemp Enterprises, Inc. This is for a Change of Zoning District Classification from R-5D Residential Duplex to Conditional A-24 Apartment District on property located on the south side of Bonney Road in the Kempsville District. Mr. Bourdon? ~ Eddie Bourdon: Thank you again Ms. Anderson, for the record, Eddie Bourdon, a Virginia Beach attorney representing Mr. Kemp, who is here today. I want to thank the Commission for their patience in this matter. On behalf of Mr. Kemp and myself, I wanted to thank Mr. Thompson, who is the gentleman who appeared at the Planning Commission hearing a couple of months ago when this was also on the consent. This is the first time that an item has been approved twice on consent by the Planning Commission. But we had some incorrect information regarding the height of the building provided by our architect, who has corrected himself, and you all have that. Mr. Thompson is well aware of that and we appreciate your patience. I wanted to bring it back to make sure it was approved with all the facts on the table. Thank you. Janice Anderson: Thank you Mr. Bourdon. Is there any opposition to this matter being placed on the consent agenda? Again, Mr. Livas will review this application for us. Henry Livas: This request is for a Change of Zoning District Classification from R-5D Residential Duplex District to Conditional A-24 Apartment District. The Planning Commission heard this application on August 9, 2006 and we recommended approval of the application based on information presented at the meeting. It was later brought to the applicant's attention that the maximum roof height of 36 feet depicted on the architectural design exhibit was actually higher. Consequently, the applicant requested to be deferred back to the Planning Commission to explain the roof height differences and to receive their recommendation based on the actual facts. Also, it should be noted that the maximum height allowed by the A-24 Zoning is 45 feet. The applicant now informs that the maximum roof height is 45 feet. Therefore, we recommend approval of this change of Zoning District Classification. Janice Anderson: Thank you Mr. Livas. Mr. Chairman, I have a motion to approve the following agenda item for consent. It is agenda item #22. Item #22 Kemp Enterprises, Inc. Page 2 Barry Knight: Thank you. We have a motion on the table. Do I have a second? Mr. Henry Livas has seconded it. Is there any discussion? There is a motion on the floor to approve the consent agenda item by Jan Anderson and a second by Henry Livas.
