Obemdorf and Members of City Council: Please find attached for your review the APZ-l / Clear Zone Master Plan. The purpose of this Plan is to provide policy guidance in the areas of general land use planning and community design for properties located within the Accident Potential Zone-l and Clear Zones around NAS Oceana. As you will see, the Plan's land use policies address overarching and topic specific planning principles relating to residential, commercial, open space and transportation issues. Accompanying maps help describe where such uses are deemed compatible with the City's AICUZ provisions. The plan also includes 'infill development' and 'community design' guidelines. The appendix includes additional background and supportive information. It outlines or summarizes various business relocation incentives that apply to this area, the location of vested properties and other matters that may be of interest to the reader. Last fall, the Oceana Land Use Conformity Committee agreed to add the development of this master plan to its work program. On October 18,2007, the city hosted an advertised public open house at the Virginia Beach Convention Center where over 150 citizens were given the opportunity to present their ideas on the development of this master plan. The draft policies, guidelines and related maps prepared for the master plan were presented at another advertised and well-attended public meeting held at the Convention Center on November 8th. Members of the Oceana Land Use Conformity Committee received copies of the draft master plan on December 10th and, following two review sessions, unanimously endorsed it on February 11 tho It now is in the process of public review in advance of being considered for adoption by reference as part of the City's Comprehensive Plan. " I 'r- The Honorable Mayor Meyera E. Obemdorf and Members of City Council Subject: APZ-I / Clear Zone Master Plan March 12, 2008 Following their public hearing held on March 12th, the Planning Commission unanimously recommended approval of this plan and has transmitted it to you for your review and consideration. A March 18th informal briefing has been scheduled for City Council to be followed by a public hearing on March 25th and consideration for final action on April 1st. I hope you find the planning policies and related information embodied in this APZ-l / Clear Zone Master Plan to be useful tools that can help us advance our Oceana Land Use Conformity Program objectives. c.

The BRAC order detailed directions to the City of Virginia Beach to implement new rules to halt development in certain areas around NAS Oceana that the Navy has deemed to be incompatible with flight operations. Virginia Beach remains committed to keeping NAS Oceana as a viable master jet base and preserving the quality oflife for all residents in the city. In response to the BRAC order, a series of policies and ordinances were adopted by the City of Virginia Beach in late 2005 and 2006. These provided immediate relief from future incompatible development within areas affected by accident potential and jet noise. These actions also provided the regulatory tools and financial resources to advance further conformance of the program through the elimination or reduction of incompatible land uses through acquisition or appropriate change of use. It is important to understand that acquisition of property to achieve land use conformance with this program will only occur with the consent of willing sellers. This master plan has been prepared by direction of the City's Oceana Land Use Conformity Committee. It is intended to provide general land use policy guidance regarding the future use of property located within the Accident Potential Zone 1 and Clear Zones around NAS Oceana. The intended users of this master plan are the citizens of Virginia Beach, especially property owners in APZ-l and Clear Zones; the business community, the U.S. Navy as well as elected and other officials at the local, state and federal levels.

Change in use is achieved through conditional rezoning or conditional use application and compliance with the design guidelines of this plan to maximize compatibility between proposed uses and existing adjacent uses . Development proposals must be planned in a fashion that prevents the fragmentation of any adjoining neighborhoods . Property owners requesting such change voluntarily agree to rezone their property . Parcels of land proposed for change of use should be consolidated to allow the creation of a unified and coherent development APZ-l / CZ Master Plan FINAL DRAFT Page 27 of 40 leuO!j!sueJl Jaj8M ( ~ ~ ~ ~u ~(U u t 'I~njd~ouoo ~J~ UI\<f)~S SjIJ~w~AOJdIlJ! uoqp~odSIJ~JI P~UU~ld pu~ ~sn PIJ~I p~sodoJd JOj Si3!l~punoq 1[\:I'P~WI~IO"lP AISS~Jdx~ ~J~ d~w "l~l uo urifJ)~s E'\~P ~~I)oJ ~OU~wJojJ~d JO ~ Sl1 ~ '-II ~p'M uo lID ~UU 00 UI JO jO jIl 0 BUI SI J~ s~B~w ~ P W P ~d S JO I~ ~U~ nb~ suoo 'I ~jU~ P!OU!

APZ: Accident Potential Zones (APZ) are areas that the DOD have determined an aircraft accident is likely to occur if one occurs, Clear Zone areas are included in this designation, Due to their proximity to military bases, APZ areas are concentrated in the higher AICUZ noise zones, The DOD provides these areas along with noise zone areas to local land use agencies to act as a planning tool. Compatible development: In general the DOD recommends that noise-sensitive uses (e,g" houses, churches, amphitheaters, etc,) be placed outside the high noise zones, that people intensive uses (e,g" regional shopping malls, theaters, etc,) not be placed in APZs and that sound attenuating methods be incorporated into building design and constmction, The DOD recommendations are intended to serve only as guidelines, Local governments alone are responsible for regulating land use, Navy Restrictive Easements: The federal government purchased restrictive easements from private property owners in the 1970's and 1980's, These easements were intended to restrict incompatible development around NAS Oceana and are a private contract between the federal government and the private property owner. Vested Right: A right to develop property that is "Immune" from changes in the Zoning Ordinance, If a person has a vested right to develop property, it means that he or she has received certain development-related approval prior to the effective date of the zoning ordinance change and thereafter has taken affirmative measures to implement those approvals, As a result, he or she may proceed with developing the property in accordance with the prior approvals even though the zoning ordinance has changed to disallow such use, APZ-l / CZ Master Plan FINAL DRAFT Page 34 of 40 Timeline May 2005 Joint Land Use Study policies adopted on May 10,2005, The JLUS worked with other localities in Hampton Roads to reduce noise impacts on communities surrounding NAS Oceana, NALF Fentress, and Chambers Field, August 2005 The BRAC order asked the City to condemn ALL incompatible development within APZ-l, including existing residential neighborhoods and incompatible businesses, December 2005: The City adopted its APZ-l Ordinance on December 20,2005 In order to accomplish this mission the City developed an APZ-l Use and Acquisition Program on December 20,2005, that provided for the VOLUNTARY acquisition of qualifying property in order to reduce further encroachment of incompatible uses around NAS Oceana, February 2006: Amendment of the APZ-l Ordinance to include the Clear Zone, January 2007: The City began purchase of properties within APZ-l and the Clear Zone in accordance with the BRAC Order and subsequent state legislation that required the City to spend at least $15 million dollars annually to acquire incompatible use properties within the APZ-l/Clear Zone areas, July 2007: At the end of the first fiscal year of the APZ-l / Clear Zone Program the City had acquired 84 dwelling units that were already in existence or proposed for development, removing a total of 72 residential dwelling units, The City had also acquired roughly 2,5 acres of non-residential properties incompatible with AICUZ provisions for APZ-l, APZ-l / CZ Master Plan FINAL DRAFT Page 35 of 40 OCEANA LAND USE CONFORMITY PROGRAM INCENTIVES .
