AGENDA ITEM
ITEM: An Ordinance to Amend Section 25-6 of the City Code Pertaining to Daily
Reports by Pawnbrokers, Secondhand Dealers, and Junk Dealers
MEETING DATE: August 25, 2009
. Background: Code of Virginia ~ 15.2-1114 allows municipal corporations to
regulate the conduct of pawnshops and dealers in secondhand goods, wares and
merchandise. Currently, the City Code permits pawnbrokers, secondhand dealers and
junk dealers to submit the required daily transaction reports to the Police Department in
either a written or electronic format. As indicated below, during the last four years the
total number of reportable daily transactions has increased over 70%, but the number of
transactions reported in a written format has increased 366%. This increase has
overwhelmed the limited staff assigned to enter data into the Police Department's
records management system (PISTOL). Electronically reported pawn and second-
hand transactions can be entered in a fraction of the time required to enter hand-written
entries. Time delays in data entry hinder the detection of crimes for extended periods of
time and often prevent the recovery of stolen property.

. Considerations: The primary purpose of this ordinance is to require
pawnbrokers, secondhand dealers and junk dealers to submit the mandated daily
transaction reports to the police department in an electronic format, and authorizes the
reporter to impose a transaction fee to cover costs incurred by making electronic
reports. These amendments also clarify that (1) the reports must describe any
identifying marks found on the items; (2) the report may be submitted to the police
chiefs designee; and (3) transactions made on weekends or holidays, may be reported
the next business day. The effective date of this ordinance shall be October 1, 2009.
. Public Information: This item will be disseminated to the public through the
normal Council agenda process. If approved, the Police Department's Pawn Unit will
provide written notice to all dealers before October 1, 2009.

CITY OF VIRGINIA BEACH
AGENDA ITEM
ITEM: An Ordinance to Amend City Code Section 36-172 to Eliminate the Hourly Rate
for Waiting Time
MEETING DATE: August 25, 2009
. Background: In accordance with state law, City Council has regulated the
maximum rates charged by taxicabs that operate in the City. The City last adjusted the
rate for each minute of waiting time in July 2008, when, in light of increasing costs, the
maximum rate was increased to 30 cents per minute. In addition to a per-minute
maximum rate, the City Code also contains an hourly rate for taxicabs hired on an
hourly basis, but no change was made to the hourly rate.
. Considerations: City staff recently was contacted by the owner of a local cab
company who questioned the inconsistency between the per-minute rate and the hourly
rate. Because the hourly rate was not changed when the per-minute was increased, a
customer who required a wait time of 47 to 59 minutes would pay a higher cost than a
customer who required a wait time of a full hour. A few examples are shown below:
wait time of 47 minutes X $.30 = $14.10
wait time of 52 minutes X $.30 = $15.60
wait time of 59 minutes X $.30 = $17.70
wait time of 60 minutes = hourly rate of $13.80
Staff conducted research to determine if other local jurisdictions had a discounted
hourly rate for wait time and found that other jurisdictions do not have an hourly rate at
all, but rather rely solely on a per-minute rate, This ordinance will delete the portion of
the Code that established an hourly rate.
. Public Information: A public hearing was held on August 11, prior to Council's vote
on this item. Notice of the hearing appeared in the August 2 issue of The Beacon. Taxi
companies were asked to place a copy of the notification of the public hearing in their
cabs for the benefit of their customers. Finally, this item also will be advertised in the
same manner as other agenda items.

CITY OF VIRGINIA BEACH
AGENDA ITEM
ITEM: An Ordinance declaring the property located at 224 Roselynn lane to be in
excess of the City's needs and authorizing the City Manager to sell the property
to Don Danylyk.
MEETING DATE: August 25, 2009
. Background:
The City acquired 224 Roselynn lane (GPIN 2417-05-3393) as part of the APZ-
1/Clear Zone Use and Acquisition Plan. At the time of acquisition, the parcel was
developed with a single-family home on a duplex lot.
The APZ -1 Disposition Committee has evaluated the property and determined
that the existing residence is in good condition and can be renovated rather than
demolished. The property is in the interior of a stable residential neighborhood
(Oceana Gardens).

CITY OF VIRGINIA BEACH
AGENDA ITEM
ITEM: An Ordinance declaring the property located at 400 N. Oceana Boulevard to be in
excess of the City's needs and authorizing the City Manager to sell the property to
Thomas F. Owens, III.
MEETING DATE: August 25, 2009
. Background:
As part of the APZ-1 Use and Acquisition Plan adopted December 20, 2005, the
City of Virginia Beach acquired the property at 400 N. Ocean a Boulevard (GPIN
2417-06-6462) from Howard E. Fawley and Kevin D. Edwards in June 2007. At
the time of acquisition, the property was developed with a duplex which was
subsequently demolished. Thomas F. Owens, III ("Owens") owns the adjacent
property at 404 N. Oceana Boulevard, which is developed with his residence.
Owens proposes to purchase the vacant lot located at 400 N. Oceana Boulevard
and resubdivide the two properties into one residential lot.
. Considerations:
The APZ-1 Disposition Committee has evaluated the property and determined
that it would be preferable to leave the lot undeveloped due to the small size of
the lot, the current degree of congestion on the street, the narrow width of the
street, and the proximity to Scott Bend Lane. The sale to the adjacent landowner
addresses these concerns. Additionally, the demolition of the former duplex on
the site reduced density in APZ-1.
Mr. Owens has offered to purchase the property, with development restrictions,
for $7,000. If the City retains the property, the City must pay to maintain the lot
at an estimated annual cost of $630.
. Public Information:
Advertisement for public hearing as required by Section 15.2-1800 Code of
Virginia and advertisement of City Council Agenda.
. Alternatives:
Sell the 8,287 square foot lot to Owens with conditions, or keep the property in
City inventory.
. Recommendations:
Approve the request and authorize the City Manager to execute all necessary
documents to convey the property subject to the terms and conditions in the
attached Summary of Terms and such other terms, conditions or modifications as
may be satisfactory to the City Council.
I I
. Revenuo restriction: The City funded the acquisition of the property through
the partnership with the Commonwealth of Virginia, with each party contributing
fifty percent (50%) of the funds. Per the partnership agreement, fifty percent
(50%) of the proceeds from the sale will be refunded to the Commonwealth.

AGENDA ITEM
ITEM: An Ordinance Authorizing the City Manager to Execute a Deed Conveying the
City's Interest in the Seatack Elementary School Site to the School Board
MEETING DATE: August 25, 2009
. Background: Based upon a title examination performed on the Seatack
Elementary School Site (the "School Site"), it was determined that the School Site is
titled in the name of the City of Virginia Beach.
. Considerations: Virginia Code Section 22.1-125 requires that title to all school
property be vested in the School Board absent an agreement with the City to the
contrary. There is no agreement providing that the School Site is to be vested in the
City. Therefore, title to the School Site should be conveyed from the City to the School
Board.
. Public Information: There is no public hearing required because there is no
disposal of property. The City is retitling the property in the name of the School Board.
. Alternatives: Unless City Council enters into an agreement with the School
Board to retain ownership, Section 22.1-125 requires Council to re-title the property in
the name of the School Board.

AGENDA ITEM
ITEM: An Ordinance to Accept Book Collections from the Institute of Museum and
Library Services on Behalf of the Department of Museums
MEETING DATE: August 25,2009
. Background: The federally-funded Institute of Museum and Library Services
(IMLS) partnered with the American Association for State and Local History (AASLH) to
make available approximately 3,000 book collection "libraries" for developing and
improving institutional collections through the "Connecting to Collections Bookshelf'
grant program. The book collections were made available through three competitive
grant cycles. In the final grant cycle, the Francis Land House was awarded the "Core
Collection" that contains twelve publications and the "Nonliving Collection," which
contains five publications focused on specialized collections.
. Considerations: Collections management is an important consideration for
museums, libraries and similar institutions that collect and care for objects, books and
living creatures as part of their mission. Proper professional collections management is
a significant factor in achieving institutional accreditation and in maintaining accredited
status. The book collection will assist the Francis Land House, and other historic
houses, in continuing to improve the management of their collections and maintain
professional standards. There is no cost to the City to accept these awards.
. Public Information: Information will be disseminated to the public through the
normal City Council agenda process.
. Recommendations: It is recommended that the City Council accept the book
collections awarded to the Francis Land House.

COMMENT
The amendments allow electronic display signs only in conjunction with schools and other
public uses in all zoning districts and in the B-IA though B-4C Business Districts (i.e., all Business
Districts except the B-1 Neighborhood Business District and B-4K Historic Kempsville Area Mixed
Use District), and not within any Historic and Cultural District. Inasmuch as all freestanding signs
in the B-3A and B-4C Districts require the approval of the City Council under existing CZO
3
1,1 I
129 Section 905 (d) (4), electronic display signs in those two districts would require City Council
130 approval. City Council approval would also required for electronic display signs in public parks.
131
132 The amendments also provide that electronic display signs must, in addition to the
133 provisions of 'this section, conform to the City's general sign regulations contained in Part B of
134 Article 2 of tht, City Zoning Ordinance.
135
136 In addition, there are a number of requirements specific to electronic display signs that
137 address the special characteristics of such signs. These requirements pertain to size, height,
138 frequency of message changes, wiring, sound and illumination. In addition, subdivision (c) (4)
139 prohibits electJronic display signs from advertising or directing the attention of the general public to
140 an establishment, business or service that is located on a separate site from the sign. This provision
141 is consistent with the City's prohibition of billboards.

CITY OF VIRGINIA BEACH
AGENDA ITEM
ITEM: A Resolution Approving a Contract between the Community Services Board and
the State
MEETING DATE: August 25,2009
. Background: The Commonwealth of Virginia provides funding for mental health,
mental retardation and substance abuse services through the performance contract with
local Community Services Boards. The contract requires localities to specify how funds
will be utilized and the number of persons served with State, Federal and Medicaid
funding. It also contains a number of outcome and patient information reporting
requirements.
. Considerations: The contract provides a substantial amount of funding needed to
maintain important services. As required by law, the Community Services Board
endorsed the performance contract at its July 30,2009 meeting.
. Public Information: Public comment on the contract was solicited for 30 days,
pursuant to Code of Virginia 937.2-508. Copies of the proposed contract were placed in
a number of locations around the City, including Human Services offices, the Central
Library and the City Clerk's Office. Public Notice was posted through the City's Internet
site.
. Alternatives: Pursuant to Code of Virginia 937.2-508, if City Council does not
approve the proposed performance contract by September 30, 2009, the contract shall
be deemed approved. Rejecting the performance contract would mean losing $11.6
million in State and Federal funding, and risking the loss of an additional $19.1 million in
Medicaid and other Fee Revenues.
. Recommendations: It is recommended that City Council adopt the attached
resolution approving the FY 2009-10 State Performance Contract between the Virginia
Beach Community Services Board and the Virginia Department of Behavioral Health
and Developmental Services.

AGENDA ITEM
ITEM:
A Resolution Approving the City's Support of the Green Jobs Alliance
("GJA") Mission, and the GJA's Applications for Federal Grants Under the
American Recovery and Reinvestment Act ("ARRA")
MEETING DATE: August 25,2009
. Background: The Green Jobs Alliance ("GJA") is a Virginia-based national
nonprofit partnership created in response to the Green Jobs Act of 2007, which was
recently funded by provisions of the American Recovery and Reinvestment Act
("ARRA"). The GJA is requesting endorsement of its efforts to develop an evolving
energy efficiency and renewable energy industries workforce. The GJA will coordinate
resourcing, training, and associated support in order to establish economic
independence for individual workers, including those who seek a pathway out of
poverty.
The GJA has been designated a State Energy Training Partner by the Commonwealth
of Virginia, and it is ready to help the City mold a "Green Collar" workforce that will
benefit the region's economy and environment.
The efforts of the GJA will serve to catalyze the creation of new green jobs and will offer
the means to provide green upgrades for many existing jobs. In particular, GJA aims to
facilitate career development for at-risk youth, veterans, workers affected by national
environmental and energy policy, unemployed workers, individuals in need of updated
training related to energy efficiency and renewable energy, and former incarcerated,
adjudicated, non-violent offenders.
Specific activities will focus on the development of renewable energy industries such as
promoting offshore wind power turbine manufacturing, solar and biofuels development,
and green construction and renovation of buildings under the U.S. Green Building
Council's Leadership in Energy and Environmental Design ("LEED") standard. From a
regional perspective, GJA recognizes the offshore wind power and tidal wave
technology provide enormous potential for creating green jobs in generating power for
the Smart Grid - primarily along the coastlines of North Carolina, Virginia, Maryland and
Delaware.
. Considerations: In order to carry out its mission, the GJA will apply for federal
grants available under the ARRA. Passage of the enclosed resolution will help bolster
GJA's grant application, which must be submitted to the US Department of Labor by
September 4, 2009. The Alliance hopes that success in its mission will produce
worthwhile environmental and economic benefits for the region.

AGENDA ITEM
ITEM: A Resolution Supporting On-Road Bicycle Accommodations
MEETING DATE: August 25, 2009
. Background: In 2004, City Council amended the Master Transportation Plan
component of the Comprehensive Plan to incorporate a Bikeways and Trails Plan. The
Bikeways and Trails Plan calls for a comprehensive system of bikeways and trails,
including multi-modal accommodations, but it does not specifically address on-road
bicycle accommodations.
On-road bicycle accommodations include bike lanes, wide curb lanes, certain
shoulder improvements, and certain signage and road markings for shared-use, as well
as other physical improvements and traffic control devices. On-road bicycle
accommodations-in particular, bike lanes-are preferred by many long-distance, sport,
and higher speed cyclists, and dedicated bicycle lanes better protect the safety of both
bicyclists and motorists. On-road bicycle accommodations not only could be
incorporated into certain roadway projects in addition to multi-modal accommodations
and sidewalks, but, in some instances, also could be included as part of roadway
projects for which multi-modal accommodations are not feasible.
. Considerations: That resolution provides that the City Manager shall conduct a
review of the Bikeways and Trails Plan component of the Comprehensive Plan, in
consultation with the Bikeways and Trails Advisory Committee, with an emphasis on
identifying existing and proposed roadways that would be appropriate for the inclusion
of on-road bicycle accommodations, and, where feasible, incorporate such
accommodations into existing or planned road improvement projects.
. Public Information: This item will be advertised in the same manner as other
agenda items.

AGENDA ITEM
ITEM: An Ordinance to Transfer Funds to Provide a Different Funding Source for a
Local Grant Match for the Fire Department.
MEETING DATE: August 25, 2009
. Background: Previously, City Council adopted an ordinance to accept,
appropriate, and transfer funds for the Fire Department (ORD # 30751, adopted April 14,
2009). The accepted and appropriated funds came from a federal grant. The
transferred funds came from state Fire Programs funds and were a required local grant
match. Of the $184,557 local match in that ordinance, $102,000 was for replacement
and upgrade of roughly 34 Electrocardiogram (ECG) monitors on front line apparatus for
a total cost of $510,000. The ECG monitors were to be used in the provision of services
to the general public.
The Virginia Fire Services Board governs the use of Fire Programs funds as provided
by the Virginia Code S 38.2-401. The code section and the board restrict the use of Fire
Program funds to the purchase of emergency medical services equipment used by
firefighters to treat other firefighters. Recently, the Fire Department was made aware
that the funds could not be used for the local match for the ECG monitors because this
use was not specifically for firefighters.
. Considerations: Due to the restrictions on the use of Fire Program funds, an
alternate means of providing the local match is required. This ordinance will change the
funding source for the local match for the ECG monitors to the FY 2009-10 Operating
Budget of the Department of Emergency Medical Services for defibrillator replacement
($50,000) and the General Fund Reserve for Contingencies ($52,000). Funds of
$1,616,568 are available in the General Fund Reserve for Contingencies as of August
5,2009, including the amount requested here.
. Public Information: Public information will be handled through the normal
Council agenda process.
. Alternatives: Without this funding source change, the 2008 Assistance to
Firefighters Grant FY 2008 would have to be partially returned and 34 ECG monitors
that are on front-line apparatus could not be replaced or upgraded.
. Recommendations: Approve the transfer of funds.

AGENDA ITEM
ITEM: An Ordinance to Accept and Appropriate State and Federal Funds to the FY
2009-10 Operating Budget of the Department of Human Services
MEETING DATE: August 25, 2009
. Background: Since the adoption of the City's FY 2009-10 budget, additional
state and federal funding has been granted to the Department of Human Services.
The Virginia Department of Criminal and Justice Services has awarded $120,000 for
community corrections and pretrial services to fund for two new Pretrial Probation
Officers and some operational costs to perform investigations on adult defendants
appearing in arraignment court. With this funding, an additional 700 investigations each
year will be provided and an additional 250 defendants per year are expected to be
placed on pretrial supervision, saving the cost of incarceration of these individuals.
The Virginia Department of Behavioral Health and Developmental Services administers
the Projects for Assistance in Transition from Homelessness (PATH) program that
provides funding to localities. Of the 40 Community Service Boards (CSB) across
Virginia, Virginia Beach ranks 2nd highest in estimated need for PATH funds due to its
population, large land mass to cover with massive rural areas, and federal and state
parks. Virginia Beach's PATH program has been awarded an additional $47,570 federal
funding. This on-going funding will provide for one full-time Mental Health/Mental
Retardation (MRMH) Assistant to provide community mental health services directly and
provide facilitated referrals and connections to mental health services.
. Considerations: This funding addresses pressing service needs. The funds will
be used for the addition of three new FTE, which the ordinance makes contingent upon
continued federal and state funding. No additional City funds are required for these
positions or programs. These revenues are anticipated to be stable and recurring.
. Public Information: The use of funds was endorsed by the CSB at the July 30th
meeting, and public information will be coordinated through the normal Council agenda
process.
. Recommendations: Accept and appropriate state and federal funding as well as
increase the number of FTEs by 3 (one MHMR Assistant, two Pretrial Probation
Officers)

AGENDA ITEM
ITEM: THE CHURCH OF JESUS CHRIST OF LATTER-DAY SAINTS, Chanae of
Zonina District Classification (1-2 Heavy Industrial District to Conditional 0-1
Office District) and Conditional Use Permit, religious facility, 4873 and 4883
Bonney Road. KEMPSVILLE DISTRICT.
MEETING DATE: August 25,2009
. Background:
The applicant requests a rezoning of the portion of the property zoned 1-2 Heavy
Industrial District to Conditional 0-1 Office District. The applicant proposes to
combine the rezoned area with a portion of the site currently zoned 0-1 Office for
the purpose of constructing a church. The applicant is also requesting a
Conditional Use Permit for the church.
The Comprehensive Plan Map identifies this area as a Primary Residential Area.
The land use planning policies and principles for the Primary Residential Area
focus strongly on preserving and protecting the overall character, economic
value, and aesthetic quality of the stable neighborhoods located in this area. The
established type, size, and relationship of land use, both residential and non-
residential, in and around these neighborhoods should serve as a guide when
considering future development. The northern side of Bonney Road, opposite the
subject site, is part of Strategic Growth Area 4.
. Considerations:
The submitted site development plan depicts a building footprint of 190-feet by
100-feet (190' x 100'). The proposed building is situated 85 feet from the front
property line adjacent to Bonney Road and 70 feet from both the side property
line on the southern portion of the site and the rear property line along the
western portion of the site. The proposed parking lot contains 142 parking
spaces dispersed along all sides of the building. A proposed stormwater
management facility occupies the northernmost portion of the site. A rendering of
the proposed building submitted with the application depicts a traditional church
building style. The proposed building materials include brick and E.I.F.S. (exterior
insulation finish system).
I I
THE CHURCH OF JESUS CHRIST OF LATTER-DAY SAINTS
Page 2 of 2
This is the last remaining portion of office and industrial zoned property in this
area of Bonney Road. The southern portion of the site has been zoned for
industrial use dating back to the 1960s, but is no longer used for industrial
purpose::;. The land use trend in the surrounding area has been toward higher-
density residential uses. The current proposal for a church, therefore, is
appropriate, being compatible with the developing residential nature of the area
and being of high quality design.
There was no opposition to this request.

IMPACT ON CITY SERVICES
MASTER TRANSPORTATION PLAN (MTP) I CAPITAL IMPROVEMENT PROGRAM (CIP): Bonney Road
in front of this application is a two-lane collector street. The Master Transportation Plan depicts an undivided
roadway within a 70-foot wide right-of-way. A Capital Improvement Program (CIP) project is slated for this
area. The Pembroke Area Comprehensive Transportation Plan (CIP 2-238) is ongoing and involves a
transportation study for the Central Business District surrounding Town Center. This study will develop short-
term, mid-term, and long-term alternatives for transportation needs in the area. As part of the long-term
improvements, there are three alternatives that propose widening Bonney Road from a two-lane roadway to a
three-lane roadway. It is unknown at this point if or what impacts there will be to the proposed site. No
alternatives or alignments have been approved to this date.

Comments - Traffic Enaineerina:
. Since ':he proposed development falls within 3,000 feet of a state controlled highway, it is subject to
the Traffic Impact Analysis Regulations under VDOT Section 527. However the proposed church use
THE CHURCH OF JESUS CHRIST OF LATTER-DAY SAINTS
Agenda Items 1 & 2
Page 2
'I III I
does not generate the necessary number of trips for a study. Therefore, a Traffic Impact Analysis (TIA)
is not required under the VDOT regulations.
. The proposed development meets the City of Virginia Beach requirements for a Traffic Impact
Analysis under Sunday traffic only. Since this site experiences the majority of its traffic during church
services, the potentially negative impacts to Bonney Road would be limited to several hours on a
Sunday. A left-turn lane on Bonney Road for the site entrance may be necessary and will be further
investigated during Site Plan review.
Comments - Ennineerinn:
. A reservation of 5 feet along Bonney Rd may be required such that the ultimate right-of-way of 70 feet,
in accordance with the Master Transportation Plan, as amended 10/12/04, is achieved.
WATER: This development must connect to City water. There is an 8-inch City water main along southeastern
portion of Bonney Road, and a 10-inch City water main along the northwestern portion of Bonney Road,
SEWER: This development must connect to City sanitary sewer. The applicant must provide an analysis of
Pump Station 507 and the sanitary sewer collection system to ensure future flows can be accommodated.
There is an 8-inch City sanitary sewer gravity main along Bonney Road,
SCHOOLS: School populations are not affected by this request.
Recommendation:
Staff recommends approval of this
request with the submitted proffers, provided below, and with the conditions below.
EVALUATION AND RECOMMENDATION
Comprehensive Plan:
The Comprehensive Plan Map identifies this area as a Primary Residential Area. The land use planning
policies and principles for the Primary Residential Area focus strongly on preserving and protecting the
overall character, economic value, and aesthetic quality of the stable neighborhoods located in this area.
The established type, size, and relationship of land use, both residential and non-residential, in and
around these neighborhoods should serve as a guide when considering future development.
Evaluation:
The request to rezone the existing 1-2 Heavy Industrial District to Conditional 0-1 Office District and
obtain a Conditional Use Permit to develop the site with a religious facility is acceptable, This is the last
remaining portion of office and industrial zoned property in this area of Bonney Road. The southern
portion of the site has been zoned for industrial use dating back to the 1960s. The northern portion of the
site requested a rezoning to B-2 Commercial and a Conditional Use Permit for bulk storage in 1989. Staff
recognized the emerging strong residential character taking hold in the area and recommended denial of
the request. The applicant at the time was being displaced by the Bonney Road Connector project. The
request was modified to 0-1 Office to accommodate the office facilities of the existing property owner.
The current proposal for a church is appropriate, being compatible with the developing residential nature
of the area and of high quality design, Approval of the requests with the following proffers and condition is
recom mended.

CONSENT
Janice Anderson: The next group of matters we are going to address are those items that we
have placed on the consent agenda. That section is going to be handled by our Vice Chairman
Joe Strange.
Joseph Strange: Thank you. This afternoon we have 10 items on the consent agenda. The first
matter is consent agenda items 1 and 2. It is an application ofthe Church of Jesus Christ of the
Latter Day Saints for a Change of Zoning District Classification from 1-2 Heavy Industrial
District to 0-1 Ofjice District on property located at 4873 and 4883 Bonney Road and an
application of the Church of Jesus Christ ofthe Latter Day Saints for a Conditional Use Permit
for a church on property located at 4873 and 4883 Bonney Road, District 2, Kempsville with
four (4) proffers. Is there a representative on this application?
Janice Anderson: Vii eIcome.
Thank you. Good afternoon Madame Chair. My namc is Jocl Ankncy. I am an attorney
representing the church. This is my first time before the Commission. I am available to answer
any questions that you might have. We appreciate you putting us on the consent agenda.
Janice Anderson: Welcome.
Joseph Strange: Is there any opposition to these matters being placed on the consent agenda?
The Chairman has asked Hemy Livas to review these items.
Henry Livas: The applicant proposes to rezone the existing 1-2 Heavy Industrial District to
Conditional 0-1 Office District, combine it with a portion of the site currently zoned 0-1 Office,
and obtain a Conditional Use Permit to develop the entire site with a religious facility. The
submitted site development plan depicts a building footprint of 190- feet by 100- feet. The
proposed buiIdingls situated 85 feet from the front property line adjacent to Bonney Road and
70 feet from both the side property line on the southern portion of the site and the rear property
line along the western portion of the site. The proposed parking lot contains 142 parking spaces
dispersed along all sides of the building. A rendering of the proposed building submitted with
the application depicts a traditional church building style. The existing site is partially developed
with an abandoned office building and associated parking located on the 0-1 Office portion of
the site. A warehouse is located on the 1-2 Industrial portion ofthe site. Since the proposed
development falls within the 3,000 feet of a state controlled highway, it is subject to the Traffic
I I

Item 1 & 2

Page 2
Impact Analysis Regulations under VDOT Section 527. However, the proposed church use does
not generate the necessary number of trips for a study. Therefore, a Traffic Impact Analysis is
not required under the VDOT regulations. The request to rezone the existing 1-2 Heavy
Industrial District to Conditional 0-1 Office District and obtain a Conditional Use Permit to
develop the site with a religious facility is acceptable. Therefore, we have placed the project on
the consent agenda.
Joseph Strange: Thank you Henry. Madame Chairman, I make a motion to approve agenda
items 1 & 2.
Janice Anderson: A motion by Joe Strange and a second by Kathy Katsias. Phil?
Phil Russo: Madame Chairman, I need to abstain from items 1 & 2, as I have a business
relationship with Council for the church.

To whom it many concern:
I am a resident at 4888 Almandine Ave and I am hearing that there will be a possibility of erecting a church adjacent to our
property. My husband and I chose this particular area because for one thing it was a quiet place and convenient for our
needs. I personally would lilee to keep it the way it is. I know for sure that if we have a church close to our home; it will be
so much crowed and will halfe lots of traffics which I don't want to experience. I hope this letter expresses our concerns in
this matter, Thank you very much.

AGENDA ITEM
ITEM: HAMPTON ROADS CHURCH OF CHRIST, Modification of Conditions,
previous approvals by City Council on July 11,1995, November 18,1997 and
February 23,1999,2520 Holland Road. PRINCESS ANNE DISTRICT.
MEETING DATE: August 25,2009
. Background:
A Conditional Use Permit allowing a church expansion was approved by City
Council on February 23, 1999 with four conditions. Condition three of the 1999
approval stipulates that the temporary structures allowed on the site were to be
removed from the property after two years. Temporary, portable structures are,
therefore, not allowed on the site today.
The applicant requests permission to remove the existing three portable
classroom structures, consisting of approximately 2,000 square feet of area, and
replace those classrooms with a 1,544 square foot portable classroom facility.
A modification of the 1999 Conditional Use Permit is necessary to allow the
replacement of the portable units.
. Considerations:
The proposed classrooms will be utilized for children's teaching in support of the
current church use. The new 1,544 square foot portable facility will be situated
within the same footprint as the existing portable classrooms located north of the
church. An existing line of trees screens the area for the portable structures from
view of Holland Road.
The fagade of the proposed portable structure consists of beige aluminum siding
and a galvanized steel roof. Eight double-hung windows are provided within the
front elevation and four doors are available to access the facility.
It is the intent of the applicant to expand the existing permanent building as the
church grows. A designated building fund and an ongoing capital campaign in
support of that planned growth has been established. The applicant is requesting
the use of the portable structures while the church secures funds and acquires
resources to facilitate the envisioned church expansion.

SUMMARY OF REQUEST
A Conditional Use Permit allowing a church expansion was
approved by City Council on February 23, 1999 with four
conditions. Condition three of the 1999 approval stipulates that the temporary structures allowed on-site
were approved for a period of two years and the structures were to be removed from the property when
the two years expired, Temporary/portable structures are, therefore, not allowed on-site today.
The applicant, therefore, is requesting permission to remove the existing three portable classroom
structures, consisting of approximately 2,000 square feet of area, and replace those classrooms with a
1,544 square foot portable classroom facility, The proposed classrooms will be utilized for children's
teaching in support of the current church use. The new 1,544 square foot portable facility will be situated
within the same footprint as the existing portable classrooms located north of the church, An existing line
of trees screens the area for the portable structures from view of Holland Road,
The fac;ade of the proposed portable structure consists of beige aluminum siding and a galvanized steel
roof. Eight double-hung windows are provided within the front elevation and four doors are available to
access the facility.

WATER: This site currently connects to City water. The existing 5/8-inch meter (City 10#94011580) may be
used or upgraded to accommodate the proposed development. There is a 12-inch City water line in Holland
Road.
SEWER: This site currently connects to City sanitary sewer. Sanitary sewer and pump station analysis for
Pump Station # 623 is required to determine if future flows can be accommodated. There is an 8-inch City
gravity sanitary sewer main in Holland Road. There is a 10-inch City force main in Holland Road.
Recommendation:
Staff recommends approval of this
requested modification, as conditioned below,
EVALUATION AND RECOMMENDATION
Comprehensive Plan:
The Comprehensive Plan designates this site as part of the Primary Residential Area. The land use
planning policies and principles for the Primary Residential Area focus strongly on preserving and
protecting the overall character, economic value, and aesthetic quality of the stable neighborhoods
located in the area. In a general sense, the established type, size, and relationship of land use,
residential and non-residential, located in and around these neighborhoods should serve as a guide when
considering future development.
Evaluation:
The request to replace the existing portable classrooms is acceptable. The proposed portable structure
as is smaller than the structures approved by City Council in 1999, In addition, the existing landscape
screening, required with the 1999 approval, provides sufficient screening to buffer the requested portable
classroom structure from view of Holland Road.
Staff has recommended a twe five year time limit for the portable classroom facility. This condition,
combined with efforts to finalize the originally approved plans for expansion, will ensure the site maintains
a high level of quality. Overall, the applicant has developed a site plan and renderings which depict a
project that is compatible with the surrounding residential development and staff recommends approval
with the conditions listed below,

Item #4
Hampton Roads Church of Christ
Modification of Conditions

July 8, 2009
CONSENT
Joseph Strange: The next matter is agenda item 4. It's an application of Hampton Roads Church
of Christ for a Modification of Conditions approved by City Council on July 11, 1995,
November 18, 1997, and February 23, 1999, on property located at 2520 Holland Road, District
7, Princess Anne, with three (3) conditions.
William Throne: Yes sir. I'm Bill Throne. I'm with the Hampton Roads Church of Christ. I'm
one of the Elders ':here. Weare in complete agreement with the conditions you have placed on
the application.
Joseph Strange: Thank you. Is there any opposition to this matter being placed on the consent
agenda? The Chairman has asked Al Henley to review this item.
Al Henley: Thank you. The address ofthe applicant is 2520 Holland Road. A Conditional Use
Permit allowing a church expansion was approved by City Council on February 23, 1999 with
four conditions. Condition three of the 1999 approval stipulated that temporary structures
allowed on-site were approved for a period of two years and the structures were to be removed
from the property within two years. Temporary/portable structures are, therefore, now allowed
on-site today. The applicant, therefore, is requesting permission to remove the existing three
portable classroom structures consisting of approximately 2,000 square feet and replace them
with 1,544 square foot portable classroom facilities. The proposed classrooms will be utilized
for children's teaching in support of the current church use. The new portable facility will be
situated within the same the footprint as the existing portable classroom located north of the
church. There is a existing tree line for screening of those proposed portables. It is the intent of
the applicant to expand the existing permanent building as the church grows. Staff
recommended approval, and in the approval they recommended two years. However, Planning
Commission felt that is was appropriate a five year time limit portable classroom facilities.
Therefore, the PI aiming Commission has placed this on the consent agenda. Thank you.
Joseph Strange: Thank you AI. Madame Chairman, I make a motion to approve agenda item 4.
Janice Anderson: A motion by Joe Strange and a second by Kathy Katsias.

ITEM: RICHMOND 20M HZ, LLC, D.B.A. NTELOS I ROBERT B. TIMMS & C.
ARTHUR RUTTER, III, TRUSTEES, Modification of Conditions, previously
approved by City Council on January 13, 1998, 2665 Indian River Road.
PRINCESS ANNE DISTRICT.
MEETING DATE: August 25,2009
. Background:
The applicant requests a Modification of Conditions of an existing Conditional
Use Permit to allow the extension of an existing communications tower and the
installation of new wireless antennas. Specifically, the applicant requests
extension of the 150-foot high existing tower on the site, which was approved by
City Council in 1998, by 17 feet to 167 feet in height.
. Considerations:
The 1998 approval limits the height of the tower to 150 feet (up to 165 feet with
uni-directional antennas). The conditions required a tower be constructed
capable of extension of up to 170 feet in the event that a future City Council
determined that a height increase might be appropriate. In 1998, Staff was
concerned that a tower at 150 feet might negatively impact the neighborhood to
the north, Indian River Plantation, which was then under construction. The
existing monopole is located well off the road, over 1,000 feet from Indian River
Road, and the tower's base and equipment are not visible from the roadway due
to existing trees on this site and on the adjacent properties.
As required by the Zoning Ordinance, the applicant did contact, via mail, all
adjacent property owners with specific information about the request and with
contact information for any questions. In addition, all required documents were
submitted, including a report confirming the structural integrity of the tower, as
well as a non-ionizing electromagnetic radiation (NlER) analysis and an RF
Emissions Compliance Report, which indicates emissions do not exceed
minimum ground level exposure at any point outside the facility and are within
compliance with all regulatory agencies and standards. Based on the lack of
negative input from adjacent property owners in the now established Indian River
Plantation neighborhood and a finding that the provisions of Section 232 of the
Zoning Ordinance are met, Staff finds that this request is acceptable.

There was no opposition to this request.
. Recommendations:
The Planning Commission placed this item on the Consent Agenda, passing a
motion by a recorded vote of 11-0 to recommend approval to the City Council
with the following conditions:
1. The conditions of the Conditional Use Permit approved by City Council on
January 13, 1998, shall remain in effect with the exception of Condition 1
which shall be replaced with the following:
The Gommunication tower shall be constructed in substantial conformance
with the plan entitled, II NR-5437, Princess Anne, Sheet Number C-3,"
prepared by All Pro Consulting Group, dated 03/17/09, which has been
exhibited to City Council and is on file with the Department of Planning.
2. In thH event interference with any City emergency communications facilities
results from the use of this tower and antennas, the user( s) shall take all
measures reasonably necessary to correct and eliminate the interference. If
the interference cannot be eliminated within a reasonable time, the user shall
immediately cease operation to the extent necessary to stop the interference.
3. As required by Section 232(i)( 4) of the City Zoning Ordinance, should the
antennas cease to be used for a period of more than one year, the applicant
shall remove the tower, antennas and related equipment from the property.
4. No signs indicating the location of this facility are permitted.

SUMMARY OF REQUEST
The applicant requests a Modification of Conditions of an

terms, when requested,
3, The planned tower must be a multiple port tower capable of accommodating a minimum of three
wireless providers. The proposed tower must be expandable to provide for increased height (170

Said plan was presented to the Planning Commission on December 10,1997 and is on file with
the Planning Department.
6. All healthy trees and vegetation currently existing within the borrow pit 100 foot buffer area

This site is within the Southern Watersheds Management Area. A sand
extraction borrow pit exists on much of the property and a Conditional
Use Permit for its operation was approved by City Council in 1992. Many
of the mature trees on this site have been removed as a result of the
mining operation. Some mature trees exist along the northern portion of
the property and stands of mature trees exist off the site but adjacent to
the site that serve as a buffer to not only the borrow pit but to the base of
the tower as well. No additional removal of trees is anticipated with this
request. There do not appear to be any significant cultural features on
this site.

EVALUATION AND RECOMMENDATION
Recommendation:
Staff recommends approval of this request with the conditions below.
Evaluation:
The 1998 approval limits the height of the tower to 150 feet (up to 165 feet with uni-directional antennas).
The conditions required a tower be constructed capable of extension of up to 170 feet in the event that a
future City Council determined that a height increase might be appropriate. In 1998, Staff was concerned
that a tower at 150 feet might negatively impact the neighborhood to the north then under construction,
Indian River Plantation. Now that the neighborhood is established, residents who have the greatest
potential for concern are able to voice their opinions with this Modification of Conditions request. The
existing monopole is located well off the road, over 1,000 feet from Indian River Road, and the tower's
base and equipment are not visible due to existing trees on this site and on the adjacent properties.
As required by the Zoning Ordinance, the applicant did contact, via mail, all adjacent property owners with
specific information about the request and with contact information for any questions, In addition, all
required documents were submitted, including a structural report confirming the integrity of the tower, as
well as a non-ionizing electromagnetic radiation (NIER) analysis and an RF Emissions Compliance
Report indicating that emissions do not exceed minimum ground level exposure at any point outside the
facility and are within compliance with all regulatory agencies and standards. Based on the lack of
negative input from adjacent property owners in the now established Indian River Plantation
neighborhood and a finding that the provisions of Section 232 of the Zoning Ordinance are met, Staff

CONSENT
Joseph Strange: The next item is agenda item 6. An application ofNTelos for a Modification of
Conditions approved by City Council on January 13, 1998 on property located at 2665 Indian
River Road, Distr:ct 7, Princess Anne, with six conditions.
Glenn Hampton: Good afternoon. I'm Glenn Hampton, an attorney representing NTelos with
regard to this application. We appreciate working with the staff and we accept the conditions.
Joseph Strange: Okay. Thank you. Is there any opposition to this matter being placed on the
consent agenda? lfnot, the Chairman has asked Al Henley to review this item.
AI Henley: Thank you. The applicant requests a Modification of Conditions of an existing
Conditional Use Permit to allow the extension of an existing tower and the installation of new
antennas. Specifically, the applicant requests an extension ofthe ISO-foot high existing tower on
the site, which was approved by City Council in 1998, by 17 feet to 167 feet in height. In 1998,
staffwas concerned that a tower at 150 foot may negatively impact the neighborhood to the
north, then under construction, Indian River Plantation. Now that the neighborhood is
established, reside:lts who have the greatest potential of concern may be able to voice their
opinions with this Modification of Conditions request. The existing monopole is located well off
the road, over 1,000 feet from Indian River Road, and the tower's base and equipment are not
visible due to existing trees on this site and on the adjacent properties. As required by the
Zoning Ordinancej the applicant did contact, via mail, all adjacent property owners with specific
information about the request, and with contact information for any questions. Staff
recommended approval; so, therefore, the Planning Commission has placed this item on the
consent agenda. Thank you.
Joseph Strange: Thank you A1. Madame Chairman, I make a motion to approve agenda item 6.
Janice Anderson: A motion by Joe Strange and a second by Kathy Katsias.

building design is contemporary, complementing the existing buildings in Town
Center. The proposed building is 15 stories in height with retail uses occupying
the first floor. Parking for the building will be met in the parking garages located
throughout Town Center.
There was no opposition to this request.
. Recommendations:
The Planning Commission placed this item on the Consent Agenda, passing a
motion by a recorded vote of 10-0 with 1 abstention, to recommend approval to

MASTER TRANSPORTATION PLAN (MTP) / CAPITAL IMPROVEMENT PROGRAM (CIP): A Capital
Improvement Program (CIP) project is slated for this area. The Pembroke Area Comprehensive
Transportation Plan (CIP 2-238) is ongoing and involves a transportation study for the Central Business
District surrounding Town Center. This study will develop short-term, mid-term, and long-term alternatives for
transportation leeds in the area. As part of the short-term improvements, Constitution Drive Extended (CIP 2-
208) is for the widening and new construction of a four-lane highway along Constitution Drive from the
intersection of Columbus Street to Bonney Road. This project is currently under design.
Comments - FWlTraffic Enqineerinq
· Since the proposed development falls within 3,000 feet of a state controlled highway, it is subject to
the Traffic Impact Analysis Regulations under VDOT Section 527. However, the Site Plan was
submitted prior to January 1, 2009 and, consequently, does not meet the minimum requirements for a
study. Therefore, a Traffic Impact Analysis is not required under the VDOT regulations.
· Please note that Traffic Engineering has been working with the developer's engineer and other
membl~rs of the City staff to work through the preliminary right-of-way improvements for this project.
The plan submitted as part of the CUP does reflect these discussions, Additional details will be
handled during Site Plan review.

Comprehensive Plan:
The Comprehensive Plan designates this area of the city as Primary Residential. The City's
Comprehensive plan states that the objective of the Primary Residential Area is to protect the
predominantly suburban character that is defined, in large measure, by the stable neighborhoods.
The Plan also reinforces the suburban characteristics of commercial centers and other non-residential
areas that make up part of the Primary Residential Area. The plan states on page 91, "Limited
commercial or industrial activities providing desired goods or services to residential neighborhoods may
be considered acceptable uses on the edge of established neighborhoods provided effective measures
are taken to ensure compatibility and non-proliferation of such activities,
The plan recommends non-residential uses due to the influence of the AICUZ high noise in this area. This
proposed use is compatible in this AICUZ and APZ.
Evaluation:
This proposal for a bulk storage yard is in conformance with the Comprehensive Plan's recommendations
for this area. The proposed bulk storage is located away from residential uses in an area partially
screened by an existing adjacent building's block wall. The exterior fence materials will be a low
maintenance vinyl. The vinyl privacy fence is proposed at eight feet in height. No landscaping is proposed
in front of the fence because the fence shall be installed in a paved area. Staff recommends that
additional landscaping be placed along the street frontage and the interior side to screen the fence,
CONDITIONS
1, Bulk storage of vehicles, materials, and equipment related to the businesses shall be limited to the
area defined on the submitted plan entitled "Commerce Park", page 6 of 15, prepared by wpl civil
engineers, land surveyors, planners and landscape architects, dated April 27, 2005. Said plan has
been exhibited to the City of Virginia Beach City Council and is on file in Planning Department.
2. The applicant shall install additional, appropriate plantings approved by staff within the street frontage
landscaping area along the length of the fence facing Virginia Beach Boulevard.
3. All trucks, trailers, and oversized vehicles shall be parked within the bulk storage area when not in
use.
4. The gates to the bulk storage area shall be closed at all times except when personnel are loading or

AGENDA ITEM
ITEM: JENIFER & KELLY BRITT, Conditional Use Permit, skateboard ramp, 825
Hanover Drive. KEMPSVILLE DISTRICT.
MEETING DATE: August 25,2009
. Background:
The applicant requests a Conditional Use Permit to allow a skateboard ramp on
this residentially zoned property. The ramp is primarily used by the applicants'
1 O-year old son.
. Considerations:
The ramp is currently located at the southwest corner of the rear yard,
approximately two feet from the side lot line. At this current location, the ramp
does not conform to required setbacks. A condition of the Use Permit is
recommended below, requiring the ramp to be moved to the required five foot
setback. The size of the ramp is eight feet by fifteen feet (8' x 15'), with a height
of four feet at the rollout deck platforms.
The applicant has met with adjacent property owners, as well as residents in
each of the blocks surrounding the site, explaining the need for the Conditional
Use Permit and their desire to upgrade the ramp and relocate it to meet the
setbacks as required by the Zoning Ordinance. Signatures of support from the
residents on forms provided by the applicant were submitted with the application
and are found at the end of this report.
The applicant developed a set of rules and standards by which the skateboard
ramp will be constructed and used. The design of the ramp and the rules for its
use will prevent the sound from and activity at the ramp from becoming "noise"
and an intrusion on the surrounding residents. The applicant also personally
visited with the adjacent residents, providing them with a copy of the standards
and rules, and explained them to the residents.
With the conditions recommended below and the recommended noise
attenuation improvements (wood sheathing at each end of the rollout deck
platforms to reduce sound and sound attenuation material attached to the
underside of the skating deck), the ramp will not prove to be a destabilizing
influence in the neighborhood.

. Recommendations:
The Planning Commission placed this item on the Consent Agenda, passing a
motion by a recorded vote of 11-0 to recommend approval to the City Council
with the following conditions:
1. The skateboard ramp shall be relocated to meet required setback for
accessory structures as set forth in the City of Virginia's Zoning Ordinance
and retrofitted in compliance with the cross section detail entitled, "Britt
Ramp."
2. Use of the ramp shall be limited to the hours between 10:00 a.m. and dusk.
3. To reduce the level of sound emanating from the ramp when in use, the
following shall be utilized in retrofitting the construction of the ramp: (a) the
underside of the plywood beneath the skating surface shall be insulated; (2)
the sides of the ramp shall be enclosed with wood; and (3) roofing paper shall
be installed between the plywood and the skating surface of the ramp.
4. A chain shall be secured across the ramp when the ramp is not in use such
that the ramp cannot be used.
5. At least one adult shall be outside the house and present when the ramp is in
use.
6. The Zoning Administrator shall annually evaluate whether the rules have
been enforced and the conditions above have been adhered to. If the
evaluation reveals that the rules and conditions are being met, the use permit
shall be renewed for an additional year, with an annual evaluation thereafter.

POLICE: The Police Department notes that residential ramps of this nature can become a nuisance and
result in increased calls primarily due to noise, Rules for use of the ramp, strict supervision of use of the
ramp, and control of access to the ramp are necessary to avoid the ramp becoming such a nuisance.
-
Recommendation:
Staff recommends approval of this
request with the conditions below.
EVALUATION AND RECOMMENDATION
Evaluation:
Staff recognizes the popularity of the skateboarding sport, and the increasing desire of homeowners to
install ramps in thElir yards. Like other recreational equipment and facilities in residential yards (swimming
pools, basketball ~Ioals, etc.), skateboard ramps have the potential to become nuisances to surrounding
residents, especia Iy in regard to sound that emanates from the facility, such as the continuous bouncing
of a ball, the sound of skateboard wheels rolling across the plywood surface of the ramp, or the sound of
cheers and joyful ~;creams, Such sound is normal and is expected in residential neighborhoods, The
problems arise when the sound occurs outside the hours of the day expected for such sound, the sound
increases beyond the level normally expected, or the sound includes language that is not considered
appropriate. When this occurs, the sound becomes "noise." Such noise, especially if it includes the
gathering of individuals on the lot beyond what is normally expected, can significantly disturb the
tranquility and peace within the neighborhood. Further, of all recreational equipment and facilities in
residential areas, it is the skateboard ramp that, due to the nature of rolling wheels on the riding surface
and the size of the ramp, has the potential to create the greatest nuisance, thus, the requirement for this
Conditional Use Permit.
To ensure that the recommendation of the Comprehensive Plan to protect neighborhoods from
destabilizing influences is met, it is vital that this proposal provides safeguards designed to significantly
avoid the potential for the facility to become a nuisance to the surrounding residents and thus, to the
neighborhood, To accomplish this, the applicant developed a set of rules and standards by which the
skateboard ramp will be constructed and used. The design of the ramp and the rules for its use should
prevent the sound from and activity at the ramp from becoming "noise" and an intrusion on the
JENIFER AND KELLY BRITT

II III I
surrounding residents. The applicant also personally visited with the adjacent residents, providing them
with a copy of the standards and rules, and explained them to the residents.
Staff, therefore, concludes that with the conditions recommended below and the recommended noise
attenuation improvements (wood sheathing at each end of the rollout deck platforms to reduce sound and
sound attenuation material attached to the underside of the skating deck), the ramp will not prove to be a
destabilizing influence in the neighborhood.
Approval of the Conditional Use Permit is recommended, subject to the following conditions.
CONDITIONS
1, The skateboard ramp shall be relocated to meet required setback for accessory structures as set forth
in the City of Virginia's Zoning Ordinance and retrofitted in compliance with the cross section detail
entitled, "Britt Ramp,"
2. Use of the ramp shall be limited to the hours between 10:00 a.m. and dusk.
3. To reduce the level of sound emanating from the ramp when in use, the following shall be utilized in
retrofitting the construction of the ramp: (a) the underside of the plywood beneath the skating surface
shall be insulated; (2) the sides of the ramp shall be enclosed with wood; and (3) roofing paper shall
be installed between the plywood and the skating surface of the ramp.
4. A chain shall be secured across the ramp when the ramp is not in use such that the ramp cannot be
used.
5. At least one adult shall be outside the house and present when the ramp is in use.
6. The Zoning Administrator shall annually evaluate whether the rules have been enforced and the
conditions above have been adhered to, If the evaluation reveals that the rules and conditions are
being met, the use permit shall be renewed for an additional year, with an annual evaluation
thereafter. If the evaluation reveals that the rules and conditions are not being met, the Zoning
Administrator shall refer the use permit to the City Council for revocation.
NOTE: Further conditions may be required during the administration of applicable City Ordinances.

Conditional Use Permit
825 Hanover Drive

July 8, 2009
CONSENT
Joseph Strange: The next matter is agenda item 5. It's an application of Jenifer and Kelly Britt
for a Conditional Use Permit for a skateboard ramp on property located at 825 Hanover Drive,
District 2, Kempsville, with six conditions.
Jenifer Britt: Hi. ['m Jenifer Britt, one of the property owners at 825 Hanover Drive. We are in
agreement with all the conditions to be met.
Joseph Strange: Thank you very much. Is there any opposition to this matter being placed on
the consent agenda? Ifnot, the Chairman has asked Henry Livas to review this item.
Henry Livas: Thank you. The applicant requests a Conditional Use Permit to allow a skateboard
ramp on this residentially zoned property. The ramp is primarily used by the applicants' 10-year
old son. The ramp is currently located at the southwest comer of the rear yard, approximately
two feet from the :;;ide lot line. At this current location, the ramp does not conform to required
setbacks. The size of the ramp is eight feet by 15 feet (8' x IS') with a height of four feet at the
rollout deck platfcrms. The applicant has met with adjacent property owners, as well as
residents in each cf the blocks surrounding the site, explaining the need to meet the setbacks as
required by the Zcning Ordinance. So, they have agreed to meet the setbacks now. Signatures of
support from the residents on forms provided by the applicant were submitted with the
application. Planning staff recommended approval of the requested Conditional Use Permit.
However, the staff did compose some conditions relating to hours of operation and noise
attenuation improvements. In addition, the Commission added a condition pertaining to a one
year review by the Zoning Administrator to ensure that the skateboard is being operated
properly. Therefore, we approve this recommendation, and we have placed it on the consent
agenda.
Joseph Strange: Thank you Henry. Madame Chairman, I make a motion to approve agenda item
5.

No Skate Board ramps in residential areas
Ms. Smith,
I'm very disappointed that one of our neighbors wants to build a skate board ramp in their back yard. The residence is
at 825 Hanover Drive in the Bellamy Manor Estates section of Kempsville.
I applaud the parents for keeping an eye on their kids but the noise from a skate board ramp will surely ruin the
ambience on this peaceful neighborhood.
There are many activities that are not appropriate for the backyard - and this is definitely one of them.
The orange sign in their front yard states that here is a hearing scheduled for noon on Wednesday July 8th - not
convenient for working c1as5 families.
I propose the City of Virginia Beach prohibits such activities in residential neighborhoods. Would you wants a skate
board ramp in your neighbc rs backyard?
The city parks have ramps for the kids - we don't need them in my backyard.
I appreciate your time on the telephone this morning - thanks to all the Virginia Beach employees - you do a great job.

CITY OF VIRGINIA BEACH
AGENDA ITEM
ITEM: CITY OF VIRGINIA BEACH, Ordinance to Amend Section 201 of the City
Zoning Ordinance Pertaining to Setbacks for Piers.
MEETING DATE: August 25,2009
. Background:
Currently, any portion of a pier over 16 inches in height and above mean low
water, must meet required yard setbacks. Many waterfront properties are zoned
R-40 Residential District which, for example, has a requirement for 20-foot side
yard setback. There are numerous waterfront lots that have a very limited
amount of actual water frontage, and thus, cannot meet such side yard setback
requirements. In other cases, the pier must be shifted closer to a side property
line in order to reach navigable water. Over the last five years, the Board of
Zoning Appeals has been hearing 12 to 30 cases per year for pier setback
variances. Such a high number of variance applications usually indicates that
there is a problem with the Zoning Ordinance. State Code indicates that where a
situation of the property is recurring in nature, variances should not be granted
and that a Zoning Ordinance amendment should be considered. This proposed
amendment to Section 201 of the Zoning Ordinance responds to the recurring
nature of setback variances for piers.
. Considerations:
The amendment allows piers to extend into required yards under certain
circumstances. Specifically, the amendments will allow an uncovered pier, no
more than four (4) feet in width, to extend into a required rear or side yard
setback if necessary to access navigable water. Where this relaxation of the
normal yard setback occurs, the pier cannot have any structures attached to it
except for uncovered boat lifts. By not allowing covered boat lifts, covered docks,
or other structures, the impact on adjacent properties is reduced.
There was opposition to the proposed amendment.
. Recommendations:
The Planning Commission, by a vote of 11-0, recommends approval to the City
Council.

ZONING ORDINANCE AMENDMENT
(SETBACKS FOR PIERS)
REQUEST:
An Ordinance to amend Section 201 of the City Zoning Ordinance Pertaining to Setbacks for Piers, This
amendment was deferred by the Planning Commission on May 13, 2009 to allow the staff time to address
opposition. The amendment has been redrafted and is summarized below.
SUMMARY OF AMENDMENT
Currently, any portion of a pier over 16 inches in height and
above mean low water, must meet required yard setbacks. Many waterfront properties are zoned R-40
Residential District which, for example, has a requirement for 20-foot side yard setback. There are
numerous waterfront lots that have a very limited amount of actual water frontage, and thus, cannot meet
such side yard setback requirements. In other cases, the pier must be shifted closer to a side property
line in order to reach navigable water. Over the last five years, the Board of Zoning Appeals has been
hearing 12 to 30 cases per year for pier setback variances. Such a high number of variance applications
usually indicates that there is a problem with the Zoning Ordinance. State Code indicates that where a
situation of the property is recurring in nature, variances should not be granted and that a Zoning
Ordinance amendment should be considered. This proposed amendment to Section 201 of the Zoning
Ordinance responds to the recurring nature of setback variances for piers.
The amendment allows piers to extend into required yards under certain circumstances. Specifically, the
amendments will allow an uncovered pier, no more than four (4) feet in width, to extend into a required
rear or side yard setback if necessary to access navigable water. Where this relaxation of the normal yard
setback occurs, the pier cannot have any structures attached to it except for uncovered boat lifts. By not
allowing covered boat lifts, covered docks, or other structures, the impact on adjacent properties is
reduced,

Item #14
City of Virginia Beach
An Ordinance to Amend Section 201 of the City Zoning
Ordinance pertaining to setbacks for piers.
July 8, 2009
REGULAR
Donald Horsley: The next matter is item 14, the City of Virginia Beach. It's an
ordinance to amend Section 201 of the City Zoning Ordinance pertaining setbacks for
pIers.
Janice Anderson: Karen, are you going to introduce it?
Karen Lasley: Do you want me to introduce it.
Janice Anderson: Yes.
Karen Lasley: Or just wait and answer questions? Item 14 is an amendment pertaining
to setbacks for piers. Any portion of a pier over 16 inches in height up until it gets to
mean low water has to meet the side yard setbacks. This property is an example. It is
zoned R-40, so the side yard setbacks are 20 feet. Where did it go? You can't see it as
well in here. This lot has a stem out to the water (pointing to PowerPoint). It is 30 feet
wide. There is no way to get a pier out there and meet the setback of20' and 20', when
they only got 30 feet. This amendment is before you today because at the Board of
Zoning Appeals they hear 12 to 15, up to 31 one year, cases where piers can't meet the
setbacks. When you have a high number of variances being requested that is an indication
there is something wrong with the zoning ordinance. The State Code says if a variance is
recurring in nature, the Board of Zoning Appeals is not supposed to be dealing with that.
You need to amend your Zoning Ordinance. So, the amendment before you today allows
piers in setbacks under circumstances where the pier can only have a maximum width of
4 feet. It must be necessary to invade those setbacks to get to navigable water. No
structures can be built on the piers. You can have a boatIift and that is it. The boatIift
can't be covered. It can't have a gazebo out there. No other structures, just an uncovered
boatIift. I think that is a pretty good summary. Do you have any other questions of me
before you hear the speakers?
Janice Anderson: Are there any questions of Karen right now? Jay.
Jay Bernas: You said that BZA hears many of them a year. Are 100 percent of them
approved or what cases are not approved? Is it like 99 percent approval?
Karen Lasley: I would say 99 is probably good. I know there is one that I know they had
denied that one ended up in court, as a matter of fact. Most of them are approved.
Absolutely.
Jay Bernas: Okay.
Janice Anderson: Thank you Karen.

Item #14
City of Virginia Beach

Karen Lasl~y: Okay. Thank you.
Donald Ho:~sley: Our first speaker in support is Mr. Bourdon.
Eddie Bourdon: Can I pass these out?
Janice And'~rson: Sure. You can give them to Henry.
Eddie Bourdon: I'm passing out a state code section, which I will review in a second.
For the record, my name is Eddie Bourdon, a Virginia Beach attorney. I've been
practicing Lmd use law predominately in this city for about 25 years. And, I want to give,
first of all kudos to Bill Macali, Kay Wilson, and Karen Lasley for putting this revision,
this Section 201 before the Planning Commission and Council. Eventually, and this is
long overdue in my view, and absolutely necessary revision to Section 201 of our Zoning
Ordinance. The City adopted its first zoning ordinance 56 years ago and our current
zoning ordi1ance 35 years ago. And I am 100 percent certain that, although I wasn't here
56 years ago, that no one ever contemplated or considered in 1956 or 1973 that the
building setbacks contained in our Zoning Ordinance for homes on residential zoned lots,
that is front yard, side yard, and rear yard setbacks for homes would be used decades later
to try to prohibit property owners with riparian rights, that is waterfront property owners
from having a private boat pier. Let me note for a second that the side yard setbacks, and
that is predominately what we're dealing with, vary within the different zoning
categories. It differs in residential zoning categories from 5 foot side yard setbacks in R-
5S zoning, Shadowlawn, waterfront lots, to 8 feet in the R-5R, R-5D waterfront
properties that exist in different neighborhoods of the city to 10 feet, to 15 feet all the
way to 20 foot side yard setbacks in the R-40 zoning district. That is for houses.
Unfortunately, what is occurring and what is taken place in recent years is that petty
disputes between neighbors, jealousy between neighbors and power plays have crept into
our ever expanding regulatory process, which has gotten much, much out of hand. Way
out of hand. The variance process through the BZA is an appropriate process for what is
a by-right use of waterfront riparian properties. I've given you Section 62.1-164 of the
State Code, state law which clearly states that every riparian property owner has the right
to a private Joat pier. Now VMRC and the Army Corp. of Engineers involved in this
process both water access issues are all taken care of through them. The City's only
jurisdiction lrguably is in the intertidal zone between the mean high water line and the
mean low water line. Because of certain properties, your mean high line is up at the bulk
head and your mean low water line is further out. You have this intertidal area that
sometimes has marsh and sometimes has mud flat, and that is the only area that the City
has jurisdiction. And, because we have Wetlands regulations today that we didn't have
many years 19O, you can't have a floating dock in that area because the Wetlands
regulations want you to have the dock four feet above that either marsh or mudflat. So,
you can't build in 16 inches. You can't let it float. You have to have it four feet above
the mud flat or the marsh. It is in that area that exists on some properties that the City has
jurisdiction 10 apply a building setback for a house, and it is just reeks havoc on the
people wholre in this position to have to deal with that issue. Staff very appropriately
and correctly has recommended to you the minimum type of dock. No covers. No
gazebos, jus: a dock. That would be applicable in those instances. Where you have no
II I
III I
Item #14
City of Virginia Beach
Page 3
choice but to put a dock within, what is now interpreted to be an applicable setback.
Now, philosophically from a regulatory perspective on docks, why would it be okay in
Shadow lawn with a 50 foot wide water frontage to build a pier. Mean high, mean low,
going over Wetlands or have you, five feet from the side property line, by-right, yet in
Alanton you can have a lot with 40 feet of water frontage and you got to go to the BZA
because your 20 feet in the middle. You got no ability to build a pier without a variance if
you got that intertidal zone behind your property. So, you have to hire an attorney, hire
an engineer, go through a process. You may wind up having your neighbors oppose you.
You take them court. You could be spending years in court and tens of thousands of
dollars which has unfortunately happened, to be able to serve your legal right to put a pier
up for a boat for your house. Now, again, if you have a situation in the same scenario 40
feet on the water but let's say you're in Great Neck Point and you have a bulk head, you
have high water on low water is on your bulk head. There is no mudflat. Then this
doesn't apply at all. You can build the pier on the property line because there is no area.
When you leave the ground at the bulk head, you're not going 16 inches above any grade.
Once you go out, if there is no mudflat underneath or any wetlands underneath you, the
City has no jurisdiction at all. So, this whole process is so crazy to have gotten to where
it has gotten. But what is before you today is absolutely appropriate means by which to
provide minimum relief to those people who are in a position that they, again through
interpretation, are supposedly in a setback applicable, originally to homes. No mention
of piers. It's a great change. It is long overdue. Please recommend approval to City
Council of this change. I'll be happy to answer any questions that any of you may have.
Janice Anderson: Are there any questions? Thank you.
Eddie Bourdon: Thank you.
Donald Horsley: The next speaker in support is Carl Eason, Esquire.
Carl Eason: Good afternoon.
Janice Anderson: Welcome.
Carl Eason: My name is Carl Eason. I always enjoy following Eddie. We spoke before
and I share 100 percent everything that he has said. I've been practicing for about 30
years, and I have seen homeowners end up in court. I represent homeowners currently in
court over this kind of very thing. I do have a little bit of a twist on it, and I ask that you
consider this however, and that is if that people come and there is a statutory exemption
because they can't meet that side yard setback, one of the things that I think you need to
consider is what is the jurisdiction? And by way of preamble, merely getting a variance
doesn't give you a right to a pier. We all have to apply what is called a 404 Permit
Application process, and that is trifle. We have to come to the City. We have to go to
VMRC, and remember VMRC is the agency appointed by the State to regulate the State
owned bottom land. State owned bottom land is typical that, which is channel ward, it
doesn't mean the water line. Then we have the Corp. of Engineers. The Corp comes in
and exercises, under the Clean Water Act, issues over navigational concerns, placing of
boat docks, that kind of thing. Merely allowing a variance to allow a pier to be
I I
Item #14
City of Virginia Beach
Page 4
constructed is a positive thing long overdue in this case. I personally believe, however,
that to go further and to say we will allow it conditioned upon four feet in width. I think
maybe VMRC may even allow us to go six feet in width. No covered structure for a
boathouse t:tc. is going to put you potentially in conflict with the exercise of jurisdiction
by VMRC. And, I think candidly, that it puts you in an awkward position of trying to
exercise jurisdiction over State regulated bottom lands when we look at 28.2, and it says
VMRC wit tell you. Now, adjacent homeowner is going to come up here and say that
this is the most horrible thing. Mr. Eason is wrong. You have to limit it. Don't allow
covered structures and gazebos, etc., allowing this exception is not the code of last resort.
They may appear and file an objection before the Corp. of engineers. They may appear
and file an objection with the VMRC and VMRC will have a hearing if objections are
filed relative to boathouses and covered structures, etc. I got one case right now where
somebody came in. It is not my client. It was a predecessor in title. So, off we go back
in title. And a variance was granted by BZA. And certain conditions were imposed.
Well you know what? If you do real estate practices and you go do a title search or you
have a title (;Qmpany typically do it these days do a title search, and nobody in the
standard care in the industry is going to go and find out, when did BZA grant this
variance, and what conditions were attached? The City has been around for 56 years.
The Planning Commission and BZA have been around that long, and so is there a place
where I can go and check that out? No its' not. You think attorneys when they do real
estate closings go check each and every BZA hearing to see if it affected that lot? No,
they don't. So, I urge you first of all if we're going to allow this, index them somehow by
a GPIIN number so we can find them in the future. But secondly, but exercise your
jurisdiction only on Terra Ferma. And that means when you get to the mean low water
line, then that is the end of your jurisdiction. And the Corp. of Engineer and the VMRC
can regulate thereafter. And that is not to say that the adjacent owner still don't have the
rights and the protections that are afforded them. But let me tell you something. Mr.
Macali, Kay Wilson and Karen Lasley bringing this proposal, Eddie is right. It is long,
long overdul~. It creates a discordinate results among citizens, depending upon where
they happen to live and what neighborhoods the zoning may be. And, it really sort of
defines the states statue that says as a riparian owner, I have a statutory right, not a
privilege, a ~;tatutory right to exercise access to navigable water. So, I think what you
need to do i~, the ordinance is good. I think the amendment, and the exemption needs to
go through. I would urge however, to worry about where the placement of that pier
occurs at the mean low water line. Let somebody else worry about what occurs
thereafter. One query that you might in making that analysis stop and think. What if I
have a client who may have an old variance that was granted 20 years and now you pass
this exemption? Do those conditions still exist or not? I would respectfully submit not.
Now let's Io.Jk at the cynical person who comes in and says, how, I got a lot and I don't
have 20 feet on this side and 20 feet on this side because I live in Alanton. I'm going to
take advantage of this exception. He builds a structure out there and all of a sudden a
covered four feet wide etc complies. A month later he comes back. I want a covered
structure. He makes an application to VMRC. Is he going to be right back in front of
BZA? If that is the way it's going to occur, then changing this would have done nothing.
Thank you.
Janice Anderson: Are there any question of Mr. Eason?

Carl Eason: And I do support it just in case it didn't sound like it. I do support it.
Janice Anderson: I think what the purpose is and that I understand they were trying to
get a right for property owners to build a pier. And anything that might be considered too
decorative a pier, they would have to come to BZA.
Carl Eason: Once they touch that mean low water, I think I have a state statutory right to
have that pier and VMRC will tell me because it is state owned bottom of upon which
I'm building, and I think they have right to regulate that. That's the only twist that I
have on the proposal.
Janice Anderson: But you wouldn't be unhappy if we passed it as it is?
Carl Eason: I would be much happier would be the proper way of saying it. If you
would exercise jurisdiction only on the land, meaning landward of mean low water.
Janice Anderson: Okay. Thank you. Are there any other questions?
Carl Eason: Thank you so much.
Donald Horsley: Our next speaker in opposition is Dr. Steve Taubman.
Janice Anderson: Welcome doctor.
Steve Taubman: Thank you. My name is Steve Taubman and I live on the Eastern
Branch of the Lynnhaven. I'm not a lawyer. I hate following the two guys in the front of
me. I'm a foot doctor so I will do the best that I can. There are certain things that were
just said that I want to point out. My main question is why is this ordinance even here?
Karen Lasley just said and you all heard that 99 percent of variance requests for piers are
approved. People are getting their variances. So, why do we need to change an ordinance
if the system is already working? You notice that the two previous speakers are
attorneys. They are not here on their own behalf. They represent clients. I assume that is
how they make their living. My theory is that some of these clients, and I know my
neighbor next door because I'm, currently involved in a lawsuit already has a variance.
And with that variance he has a pier. The pier has been there for 15 years. The problem
is that he wants to expand his pier. So, don't think that I'm trying to deny or say
something that they shouldn't have water access. They should have access, and that is
what the BZA does. The problem with the proposed ordinance is that it takes previous
variances and expands their ability to expand their pier, which has already been denied by
the BZA. In my own situation, my neighbor next door. There have been three neighbors.
Two of them have been before the BZA. They were granted an initial variance. They
have a pier that works very nicely. I have a picture of it if you would like to see it? It
works fine. But they want to expand it. And they want to add a floating dock and they
want to add a roof. They want to add everything that they can. I object to it because I live
right on the property line. It is directly view of the Lesner Bridge for me. We built our
house before this other house was built and we took advantage of the view. And this will
directly affect our view, So, they have lost before the BZA on two separate occasions.
I I

And now if you pass this ordinance, the whole ruling of the BZA goes away. They get
what they wanted in the first place. That to me is not the purpose of bringing an
ordinance. So people are getting their variance. Every situation is different. If you look
at the Lynnhaven and you all know, there is not a straight line on it. The shoreline turns
and twists. [t goes into a cove. It goes out of a cove. Every pier comes at a right angle or
this angle. They cross. Every single one is individual. Every single one requires
individual c.ttention from a body, such as the BZA. To make a blanket statement like the
attorneys would like you to do, and say here is an ordinance. Anybody can do it. It
totally relinquishes any rights of the adjacent property owner. I don't even have anybody
to stand before and argue if you decide he wants to expand his pier further than it is. So,
the whole c~ncept is so one sided towards the people who require who have less than the
required setback now, and totally ignores the rights of the adjacent property owner. So, I
don't even have anybody to argue to anymore. You take away that right if you pass this
ordinance. On top of that, as Mr. Eason just pointed out, if you pass this ordinance and
you say to hm only four feet wide and no roof, he can still come back to the BZA and
ask for mon~. So, what is going to be accomplished by passing this ordinance? You
know the Vlrginia Beach Waterfront is built. There is not a single waterfront property
subdivision that I'm aware of that is being developed right now. 95 percent of the piers
have already been built. Deals have already been made through the BZA. Sometimes if
they needed their assistance, and everybody is happy. To my knowledge there are two
problems in this entire city right now. I'm one of them with Board of Zoning Appeals
and piers. Everybody else is happy. If you pass this ordinance people who have already
made their deals ten twenty years ago with the BZA, this is what could be built. My
neighbor isune and I'm okay with it. All of a sudden he is going to wake up one
morning and see construction out there and their changing what he already agreed too.
What does be do? He can't even go back to the Board of Zoning Appeals and say what
did you do? You made a deal? What happened to the deal we made? So, the adjacent
property owner is totally left out in the dark. He has nothing to say. And, to my mind this
does more harm than good. In my situation, we're in a lawsuit over riparian rights. This
is all stemmed by his lack of ability to expanding his pier, not about getting a pier. He
already has a pier but the lack of ability to expand a pier by BZA. If you pass this
ordinance he could do whatever he wants. He could build whatever he wanted that was
turned down by the BZA. Mr. Eason spoke about the VMRC taking regulated bottom
mean low water. If you read the VMRC and I think the city attorney has already read the
VMRC regulations, the VMRC gives the right to local ordinance to predominate to what
is built beyond mean low water. I don't have the code number but the City Attorney's do
have that code number. I can get it for you if you like? The way this ordinance is written
it says four feet wide and no roof structures. The way it is written now there is nothing to
stop somebody from saying oaky, four feet wide no roof but I I can build a "L" at the end
of my pier OJ I can build a "T" at the end of my pier or I'm going to put a float at the end
of my pier. That is not addressed. Just as Mr. Eason pointed out, if you don't address
every possible alternation of the pier the VMRC regulations will predominate and even
though it says four feet wide and no pier, they can still put a "L" at the end, which goes
beyond the setback. They could put a "T" at the end. They could put a floating dock at
the end. The way this is written today, the way this ordinance is written today is
incomplete because it does not cover the possibility. The VMRC regulations would
predominate unless the ordinance specifically states no "L" or "T" four feet wide, only
II I

long enough to access water and that is it. Put a lip at the end. Not on the right and not
on the left. So, I think this has the potential to do a lot more harm than good. I think it
will produce a lot of business for lawyers. I think there is going to be a lot oflawsuits
filed over this, and the reason why there are not a lot more people here now is because no
one knows what is happening. I asked the Planning staff why aren't people being told
that this ordinance is out there? It's the waterfront property owners who it is going to
affect. The answer is we send notice to civic leagues. Well, I have a civic league and I
never heard a word. My civic league hasn't met in ten years. So, that is the way it is in
this city. If you put an ad in the paper and you advertise that you're doing this, who reads
this little print in the paper? People aren't here because people don't know about it.
People are going to find out about it and nobody is going to be happy about it except for
the two individuals that I know that are represented by attorneys who want to promote
this ordinance. I obviously hope you will not approve this thing. What I must point out
is that every single situation on the water is different because the coastline is different. It
turns and twists. Every pier. If you're in a cove like this and everybody has 30 feet,
everybody has the same and sure everybody wants to cooperate with each other.
Everybody wants a pier and I don't deny that. But do you really need to put the pier right
in front of where I am going to live? Do you need to put the pier if I'm going this way
and you're going that way we can intercept, isn't it better to take each individual situation
and set of circumstances before a board, such as the BZA, who has done a good job. You
know there was one lawsuit filed against the BZA, and that has been mitigated by the
recent state legislation passed on July 1, 2009 that gives the BZA the right to grant
variances. No one is denying them the right to do variances. Why is this ordinance here?
My feeling is that it is here because certain individuals in the city cannot get what they
want through the BZA and the only way they are going to get it is to pass this ordinance.
It is going to help two people and everybody else is going to be left out in the cold
because we have no place to argue now for the case.

Steve Taubman: Thank you very much.

to pass out an email from another resident in the area, Mr. Gardner and he states his
position velY well in the email.I.llmakethatavailabletoyou.Andthirdly.this chart
which my associate here will pass around, Mr. Holcomb, to indicate the Pandora's box
that may be opened up if this ordinance concerning the BZA is done away with. My
clients are opposed to this zoning amendment that allows a pier to be built as a matter of
right without them obtaining a variance from the BZA. As was the previous city policy,
and we submit it was good then and it should be good now. It is our position that
allowing as a matter of right that the party has no requirement to show a hardship exists,
would not be a good situation. A recent decision by the Circuit Court, Gardner v. BZA,
and Mr. Gardner in that letter was a party to this action, and the applicant was Kim Chun.
In the letter of opinion dated November 20, Judge O'Brian cites a principal that the
Supreme Court recently affirmed that variances are not to be routinely granted. A
variance may only be granted when application of the zoning ordinance interferes with all
reasonable beneficiary uses of the property taken as a whole. These property owners do
have a use en the property. I would submit for the reason set forth in Judge O'Brian's
opinion, and I'll be glad to make those available to you, if you so desire, that the
proposed ordinance fails to meet the requirement of good zoning legislation. It has been
good in theoast and it still serves a purpose here today. As set forth in Judge O'Brian's
opinion, at least five other lots of similar shape in the neighborhood of this category, and
I'll ask Mr. Holcomb ifhe will point those out to you to speed it up as much as possible.
Mr. Holcomb: This picture just depicts and he wouldn't know unless you knew what to
look for. SOli of the wild shape of these flag shaped lots in this particular neighborhood.
These lots up here are connected to the water. I don't know ifit's navigable or not but
some of them are several hundred feet long, flag shaped lots. This one here and then
here. This one is really off. This one might be 1000 feet long. So, this was a small
flagged shaped lot. To allow a pier as a matter of right, that is a lot of pier. That is a lot
of people here that are directly affected by that action. That is something to observe.
Thank you.
Jay Dale Birnson: If you like Madame Chairman, I'll give a moment for that to be passed
around if YO'J so desire before I continue.
Janice Andecson: You can go ahead and continue and let them look at it.
Jay Dale Bimson: Ladies and gentlemen of the Planning Commission, I would submit to
you that it is bad legislation the proposal they have submitted to you today in the form of
this ordinance. And submitted on that plat it will open up Pandora's box of litigation
among property owners that are on the water and want to construct piers. For our clients
and for other residents in the area who are not here, the five that I mentioned, we ask that
you forward your recommendation to the City Council for denial of this ordinance. I'll
be glad to re:,pond to any questions that you may have.
Janice Anderson: Are there any questions for Mr. Bimson? Yes.
Ronald Riplt::y: Just a question. On Judge O'Brian's ruling, is there a change to that in
the General Assembly just recently?

Jay Dale Bimson: I believe they did make a change. I'm not sure of the wording and it
had something to do with the hardship involved and maybe Mr. Bourdon could address it
more clearly but there has been some change. It says hardship amounts to confiscation of
the property. And I believe that was changed but I'm sure Mr. Bourdon can address it
more clearly.
Bill Macali: Let me address this. I do work for the city.
Janice Anderson: I was going to get Kay to do it but since you volunteered, there you go.
Bill Macali: I'll have some other responses to some of the things that have been said but
the General Assembly passed an amendment to the statute which deleted language saying
that the variance had to be based upon a "hardship approaching confiscation". The words
"approach confiscation" were deleted. That is all that happened. This ordinance really
truly wasn't brought forward as a result of any kind of change in the General Assembly
or court case or anything like that or for any reason other than what Ms. Lasley stated to
you. I can truly guarantee that. It has nothing to do with two people who didn't get their
way or something like that as has been said. It was just because of what she said. Now,
somebody is making an issue of the General Assembly legislation. The law under the old
code, which required a hardship approaching confiscation, was that if someone had a
reasonable use of his or her property, a variance was inappropriate. Having a single
family house on the water, etc, is pretty much a reasonable use of the property, and the
court applying the law strictly would be constrained to find that there is no right to a pier
at all. The General Assembly deleting the words "approaching confiscation" has added
some kind of question as to what the ordinance does mean now since a hardship doesn't
have to "approach confiscation", what is the standard? That is why this is such a red
herring. It really has nothing whatsoever to do with the reason why we're bringing
forward this particular amendment. The General Assembly actually raises as many
questions as it answers to be quite honest with you And it really should not play any part
in the Commission's deliberations in this matter. There is, as Mr. Bourdon pointed out
and the staff has been well aware of since this started being thrown around in terms of an
idea, there is a statutory and a common law right for a riparian owner to what is called a
"warf out" for having a pier that goes to navigable water so long as it doesn't interfere
with anyone else's rights, so I'm not sure if! answered the question. It is not a question
that really should be answered because frankly, the General Assembly legislation and the
BZA interplay really is not the reason at all this was brought forward.
Jay Dale Bimson; I don't think we disagree.
Janice Anderson: Okay. Mr. Bimson with that picture, he showed these long strips of
land that go out and the property is actually on the road and you have these long strips of
land that come out to the water. I guess their concern is that they could actually build a
pier from the land all the way out.
Bill Macali: That is the main thing that I really need dispelled.
Janice Anderson: Okay.

Bill Macali: this ordinance does not give anybody the right to build a pier. It simply
does not matter what anyone else will tell you. The Virginia Marine Resources
Commission has to be the people to give you the right to build the pier. The City has
absolutely no right to say you can build a pier into the submerged lands, as they call it,
the area secward of mean low water. Only VMRC can do that. The only thing that this
ordinance does is say that, assuming that you can get VMRC's permission, and assuming
that your pier does not interfere with anybody else's rights, and that's something that
VMRC can decide, and that a court can decide if you have no other place on your
property that you can get out to the navigable waters and still meet the setbacks, you can
build your pier four feet wide within the setback. But you can't have any kind of structure
other than an uncovered boat lift. The VMRC does have jurisdiction over the area
seaward of mean low water, but as Dr. Taubman pointed out, the City, according the
statute that ;;ontroIs VMRC's action, has the right to determine what structure, if any can
go on that pier. Ms. Wilson will be happy to read you the actual VMRC Guidelines for
that and there is really no issue about that. This ordinance does not allow anyone to build
a pier who could not build a pier. The VMRC retains complete jurisdiction over that.
The only thlng this does is allow people who can get their permit from VMRC to have
the pier itself, no greater than four feet wide and with nothing else but an uncovered
boatlift within the setback. If they have the room and they can meet the setbacks this
ordinance simply does not apply.
Janice Andc;:rson: Mr. Bimson, you want the local government.
Jay Dale BiJTISon: Yes, because the setback is still a factor. And they are constructed in
the setback, that is why it now goes to the BZA.
Janice Anderson: Okay. Are there any other questions?
Al Henley: I do.
Janice Anderson: Yes.
Al Henley: The area that your associate pointed out earlier looks like over a 1000 lineal
footage. It appears to be on an easement or a 25-foot stem assuming what the scale is, is
that easement or right-of-way or whatever that is, is that navigable or is there water
access to get to the main body of water?
Jay Dale Birnson: I think I can get it right. There was an application made for dredging
there. The dredging was withdrawn so it is now tidal water, and that even complicates
the problem more because you have to go out with the tide and come back with the tide.
Al Henley: :~o, it is accessible but it is limited as to the craft that you use?
Jay Dale Benson: No. It's limited to the time of day that you can take that craft out there.
Janice Anderson: There is water there or not.

Jay Dale Benson: Right.
Al Henley: I have a question B and it would be to Bill Macali. On this State code 62.1-
164 where it says that any person owning land upon a water course may erect a private
moor or pier. Can you explain that because the way I understood you Bill earlier is that
you said if you own waterfront property you do not have the right to build a pier?
Bill Macali: Yes. You do have the right to build a pier but when you build it on what are
called "new coast submerged lands", which is lands seaward of mean low water, you
need VMRC's permission. That is it in a nutshell. I guess you can build a pier up to
submerged lands without VMRC. That means you won't be able to get your boat in most
of the time or part of the time but you do have the statutory right as you mentioned to
build a pier to reach the water. It is just that you need VMRC's permission and VMRC
has also said that if a locality wants it can restrict the structures which go on that pier. So,
that is what we are doing. Saying that a plain old boat lift is about all you can build out
there. And the reason we did this is because we were certainly mindful of not wanting to
have people have free reign to build huge boathouses and really some of the concerns that
have been expressed to you were not lost, but we don't feel that it is inappropriate to
allow an uncovered boat lift on a pier. And again, you do need VMRC's permission for
the pier to begin with so it is not like you're opening Pandora's box or allowing an
unlimited number of piers or anything close to that.
Al Henley: Thank you for explaining because I was questioning you. You cleared that up
Bill Macali: I hope it was adequate.
Al Henley: Thank you Bill.
Janice Anderson: Ron, do you have a question?
Ronald Ripley: I have a question of Bill also.
Janice Anderson: Are there anymore questions of Mr. Bimson? Thank you sir.
Ronald Ripley: Bill, in the process of the filing for a pier, there is an application, survey,
there is notice to all the neighbors. VMRC meets and decides the merits of the request.
Bill Macali: Right.
Ronald Ripley: And that is the public process.
Bill Macali: Right. The adjacent property owners are notified. And if one objects VMRC
will have a hearing on it.
Ronald Ripley: So the public is not denied any rights by virtue of this ordinance?
Bill Macali: They don't give notice to everybody in the city but they do give the notice
to adjacent property owners.

Ronald Ripley: Surrounding property owners?
Bill Macah: Right. Yes sir.
Ronald Ripley: Thank you.
Janice Anderson: Yes.
David Redmond: I have another question for Bill. Mr. Macali, we're learning a lot all at
once so bear with me. What about the scenario that Dr. Taubman illustrated. Now
suppose this passes to build a pier within the setback, then later on you go to the BZA
and try to build the very structures that we're trying to restrict at a later date? Is that
possible?
Bill Macali, Yes. Nothing says that someone cannot ask the BZA for a greater setback or
a larger pier, but VMRC are the folks that decide what's built on the pier. The Board is
not going to be able to let someone build a structure other than a boathouse on the pier
because that's not something that the BZA, we feel, have jurisdiction of, only the
setbacks. We say you can't have anything but an open, and I said boat house I mean
boatlift, the Board cannot grant a use variance to that anymore than it can say you can
have a single family dwelling on a business zoned lot or something like that. If you have
a variance that exists now 20 years ago, you can, if you want. Let me back up a little bit.
If your vari,mce is to allow your pier in a setback, you can get rid of that pier and build a
pier in the s,~tback under this ordinance but for the fact that since you already have a pier
you really don't need the new pier to be built because again, this ordinance says it is only
when you cannot get out to the navigable water any other way that you're entitled to go
under this o:~dinance. If you already have a pier by a prior variance then obviously you
don't need to go under this ordinance to get out to the water because you are already out
to the water
David Redmond: I understood that this morning. And I appreciate that. So, when you
say if you can't do it any other way, you can't do without going into the setbacks, you say
that is what the ordinance says. I really don't read that. What I read is the two words "if
necessary". Are those the two words that you say, say that? Is that what you mean?
Bill Macali: Yes.
David Redmond: Okay.
Bill Macali: It means if there is no other place that you can get to navigable water from.
David Redmond: Okay. Thank you.

Robert Kerrigan: My name is Robert Kerrigan. I'm retired Navy Captain. I have lived
here for 32 years. I have lived in my current house for about 11 years. My neighbor
wanted to build a pier and he was granted a variance, which was appealed. He went
ahead and built the pier and the boathouse while the variance was under appeal. The
variance he requested has been overruled by a judge. I just want to tell you what he built
out there absolutely ruined my view of the Lynnhaven. It ruined my view of the wetlands
going out to the Lynnhaven. I just want to show it to you on the chart over here.
Janice Anderson: Can you come back to the microphone sir?
Robert Kerrigan: He built a 400 foot pier there out there which you can see.
Janice Anderson: Where are you sir?
Robert Kerrigan: My house is right here. And I'm looking out to the Lynnhaven here or
was before he built that pier on the house. Now, as I say, his variance has been
overruled. We really need to very, very careful about permitting people to build anything
they want too. I think it should be looked at very hard, and I think that the proposed
ordinance would make it far too easy for people to build whatever they happen to have.
Thank you very much for your attention.
Janice Anderson: Thank you Mr. Kerrigan. Would you like to pass that around and get
them so the Commissioners can look at them? We'll just pass them around so they can
look directly at that.
Robert Kerrigan: Thank you very much.
Janice Anderson: Thank you sir. Are there any questions of Mr. Kerrigan?
Donald Horsley: There are no other speakers.
Janice Anderson: Thank you. Kay, since we have you, can I bring you up? I think Bill
has answered a lot of our questions on this. I guess that the Commissioners are
concerned about a couple of things. If you have the area, like if you have larger
waterfront frontage, can you place that pier anywhere you want? Can you place it right
next to your property line?
----..i
Kay Wilson: No. The only way you can use the exception to the setback is if it is
necessary.
Janice Anderson: Ifit is necessary.
Kay Wilson: If it is the only way you can access the water you can't do it if you have
300 feet and the water comes right to your bulkhead all the way.

Item #14

Janice Anderson: Okay. So you can't put it right on our property line.
Kay Wilson: No. To irritate your neighbor? No.
Janice Anderson: The second thing is public comment. And piers, they can be an issue
and I think everybody here recognizes that. Like Ron brought up with Bill, the VMRC
process, is that similar to our variance process, where an application is filled out? They
show exactly where the pier is. The adjoining property owners get notice? Can you
explain that a little bit more?
Kay Wilson: I don't know the specifics because we don't do it. What I can tell you is
that they do have to fill out a Joint Permit Application. They do have to fill out the
application. Whether or not notice is given to adjoining property owners, I believe it is. I
can't guarantee you that. I do know that the State's statute says ifthere is any opposition
that it will go to a full board hearing. These are normally done administratively because
there are sp1ecific criteria in the statue and in order to meet the VMRC requirements you
have to comply. Okay. And once you comply with those, VMRC is normally fine with
that.
Janice Andt:rson: VMRC actually looks at what's around? What piers are there?
Kay Wilson: They look at what piers are there. The Corp of Engineers is also involved in
the joint permit application process. They check for navigation; is the navigational right?
And if there are arguments between the neighbors, say in a cove mainly is where this
occurs, they do have the right to go to Circuit Court and have their riparian rights, their
right to the water, apportioned by the Circuit Court. And that is what many of them do
and then they know where their piers can go and where everybody's pier can go. So,
they will go and do that and have that set by order.
Janice Anderson: Another issue I hear is that they have an adequate pier and now they
want it three times longer. VMRC rules on that?
Kay Wilson Yes ma' am. Anything past mean low water is really a determination for
VMRC. Zoning goes out to mean low water and then the state owns the bottom and they
get to make the rules. The only exception is specifically in the State there is an exception
for structure~. The structures on the pier, iflocal ordinance prohibits them, then they will
go along with that.
Janice Anderson: Okay. Just because they have an existing pier that gets them out to, I
guess deep enough water, but they want to go a little further.
Kay Wilson: That is not with the city. The city has no right to say no. It has no ability
to stop that.
Janice Anderson: But before when they went to the Board of Zoning, they did? No?
Kay Wilson: No.

Janice Anderson: Okay.
Kay Wilson: Occasionally, many years ago, there are agreements that were done
between the neighbors many years ago and they would be part of the BZA process. But
the BZA has no right to govern anything that occurs past mean low water. If somebody
comes to the BZA now for a pier and it is in the setbacks so they need a BZA variance,
and they come to the BZA, the BZA can't tell them, "No you can't put a structure on it,",
because it is not allowed by ordinance. So, actually to go through the BZA process, you
can actually get structures on the piers.
David Redmond: I'm sorry can you say that again? You lost me a little bit. I'm trying
to follow it.
Kay Wilson: The only way we can prohibit structures on a pier is by local ordinance. A
BZA variance would not be a local ordinance so the BZA couldn't say you couldn't put
structures on that pier. It would be governed by whatever the rules are for VMRC.
David Redmond: Okay.
Kay Wilson: They allow them to a certain extent.
David Redmond: I thought I understood Dr. Taubman to say that was BZA. Was he
mistaken?
Kay Wilson: Yes sir.
David Redmond: Okay. Thank you?
Steve Taubman: Can I answer that
Janice Anderson: No sir. Are there any other questions for Ms. Wilson?
Bill Macali: Madame Chair. You just need to know that the difference between this
ordinance and the pier that is in the setback is the city has said you can't build anything
but a boatlift when it is in the setback. But if it is not within the setback, the BZA has
absolutely nothing whatsoever to do with that. It is entirely up to VMRC. The reason we
did that is because they are in the setback and they are closer to people's property. We
don't think that people should be able to build great big boat lifts right next to
somebody's property.
Janice Anderson: Gotcha. Jay.
Jay Bernas: I have an easy one. Much like Commissioner Redmond, reading through it, I
didn't catch the "if necessary". Is there another way to word it?
Bill Macali: Is says if necessary to access navigable water.

Item #14

Jay Bernas: Is there any other way? I don't know if that is legal terminology.
Bill Macah: If necessary to access navigable water. Pretty much that is what it says.
Jay Bernas: Okay.
Bill Macali: If you want us to rephrase that, we can.
Janice Anderson: It is evidently clear to Bill.
Jay Bernas: Okay, if there is no other way.
Kay Wilson: That determination will be made by the Zoning Administrator. Ms. Lasley
would decide when these applications come in whether or not it was necessary and they
would have the mean low water/mean high water on the site plans and things of that
nature so she can make that determination. Honestly we thought about doing a set
number but each lot is a little different so that was a little more difficult. We thought Ms.
Lasley had the discretion to do that and would be able to say if it is necessary.
David Rednond: Apparently she is brighter than we are.
Janice Anderson: Are there any of questions of Kay? Thank you.
Kay Wilson: Thank you.
Janice Ande:rson: I'll open it up for discussion. Anyone? Ron?
Ronald Ripley: I think when I hear that the Zoning Administrator brings an issue before
the Planning Commission that is a reoccurring problem that they are always having to
correct, spend the public's money, the public time and everybody involved, that this will
correct and it sounds like it does to me. It sounds like it is a practical solution. And the
public still has the benefit ofVMRC, and if there is an issue there, they can object. I
know when I received a permit for my pier, letters were sent out to all the different
adjacent property owners. Fortunately no one objected but if somebody would have
objected, I would have had a public hearing and had to explain it, and demonstrate that is
necessary, quite frankly. But I'm in favor of the ordinance as written. I will make a
motion when I get to that point.
Janice Anderson: Thank you. Are there other comments? I'm in agreement with you
because I really think this ordinance, just as they try to hammer into our heads, which I
think we all got now, is only when they don't have the footage. It's just connecting to the
land part. Whatever happens in the water is going to be VMRC anyway, which the
public will have a comment on. So, is there any motion?
Ronald Ripky: A motion to approve.
Janice Ande~son: A motion by Ron and a second by Kathy Katsias.
