AGENDA ITEM
ITEM: An Ordinance to Amend Section 18-64 and 18-85 of the City Code Pertaining to
License Taxes on Establishments Offering Transient Lodging
MEETING DATE: September 14, 2010
■ Background: The City has imposed a license tax on establishments that
provide lodging for transients since 1965. City Code section 18-64 addresses
establishments such as boarding houses, lodging houses and tourist homes that
accommodate five people or less. City Code section 18-85 addresses hotels, motels,
motor lodges, auto courts and tourist camps. In the 2010 General Assembly Session,
the Virginia Code was amended to clarify that, among establishments offering lodging to
transients, campgrounds and bed and breakfast establishments are required to obtain a
business license.
■ Considerations: While the current language of the City Code is sufficiently
broad to require a campground or a bed and breakfast to obtain a business license, the
purpose of this amendment is to have the City Code mirror the State Code.
■ Public Information: This item will be advertised in the normal Council Agenda
process.
■ Recommendations: Approve the attached ordinance.
■ Attachments: Ordinance
Recommended Action: Approval

21 establishments under section 18-85.

12 amended and reordained to read as follows:
13
14 Sec. 18-32. Permit required.
15
16 (a) No person shall engage in the activities of a dealer as defined in section
17 18-76.1, pawnbroker, junk dealer, or secondhand dealer without first obtaining a permit
18 from the chief of police.
19
20 (b) To obtain a permit, the applicant shall file with the chief of police an
21 application form which includes the applicant's full name, any aliases, address, age,
22 date of birth, sex, and fingerprints; the name, address, and telephone number of the
23 applicant's employer, if any; and the location of the applicant's place of business. Upon
24 filing this application and the payment of the permit fee set forth in subsection (g) of this
25 section, the applicant shall be issued a permit by the chief of police or his or her
26 designee, provided that the applicant has not been convicted of a felony or crime of
27 moral turpitude within seven (7) years prior to the date of application. Further, the permit
28 shall be denied if the applicant has been denied a permit or has had a permit revoked
29 under any statute or ordinance similar in substance to the provisions of this section, and
30 may be denied if the applicant has been a principal or associate in any partnership,
31 corporation or other business enterprise which has been subject to civil or criminal
32 penalty or any order to cease doing business issued by a federal, state, or local
33 governmental law enforcement or consumer protection agency.
34
35 (c) The chief of police, prior to issuance or renewal of a permit, shall
36 determine that the applicant intends to conduct business at a fixed and permanent
37 location, and shall require proof of ownership of the proposed business premises by the
38 applicant or the applicant's employer, or evidence of a valid lease of such premises held
39 by the applicant or the applicant's employer of no less duration than the term of the
40 license. Conduct of business from a hotel, motel, temporary lodging unit or similar
41 location shall not satisfy the requirements of this section.
42
43 (d) No more than sixty (60) days prior to issuance of the permit required by
44 this section, the applicant must have any weighing devices used in the business
45 inspected and approved by local or state weights and measures officials and present
46 written evidence of such approval to the chief of police or his or her designee.
47 (e) This permit shall be valid until the end of the current business license year
48 and may be renewed in the same manner as such permit was initially obtained upon
49 payment of an annual permit fee. No permit shall be transferable.
50
51 (f) If the business of the applicant is not operated without interruption, with
52 Saturdays, Sundays and recognized holidays excepted, the applicant shall notify the
53 chief of police of all closings and reopenings of such business. The business of a
54 applicant shall be conducted only from the fixed and permanent location specified in the
55 application for a permit.
56

58 ($240,002UQ for a dealer as defined in section 18-76.1, and twenty-five dollars ($25-.00)
59 for a pawnbroker, junk dealer or secondhand dealer; provided, however, that if an
60 applicant applies for an initial or renewal permit as a dealer of precious metals and
61 gems at the same time as the applicant applies for an initial or renewal permit as a junk
62 dealer or secondhand dealer, the applicant need only pay the twe three hundred dollar
63 ($200:00300) permit fee. If the chief of police refuses to issue such permit, the applicant
64 shall be notified, in writing, of the reasons for the refusal and the applicant may appeal
65 such refusal to the city council within thirty (30) days from the date of such notice.
COMMENT:
This amendment increases the permit fee for precious metal dealers from $200 to $300,
which reflects the increase as approved by City Council on May 11, 2010 when City Code §27-3 was
amended.

AGENDA ITEM
ITEM: An Ordinance to Accept a Grant from the Commonwealth of Virginia and to Appropriate
the Grant and General Fund Fund Balance to CIP Project 2-301, Norfolk Southern Right -
of -Way Acquisition
MEETING DATE: September 14, 2010
■ Background: On September 4, 2009, the City of Virginia Beach entered into an
agreement with Norfolk Southern Railroad Company ("Norfolk Southern") to purchase its railroad
line (the "Rail Line") from Newtown Road to Birdneck Road in Virginia Beach. The purchase of
the rail line, valued at a total of $40 million, is to be funded as follows:
• $10,000,000 initial funding from the City of Virginia Beach
• $5,000,000 additional funding from the City, if Virginia Beach opts to purchase a reserved
easement ("Reserved Easement") over the Rail Line
• $20,000,000 from the Commonwealth of Virginia
• $5,000,000 from Hampton Roads Transit ("HRT")
The initial funding of $10 million from the City was included in the FY 2008-09 Capital
Improvement Program. The City has an option ("Option") until December 29, 2012 to purchase
for $5,000,000 the Reserved Easement over the Rail Line, which covers an existing lease to
Dominion Virginia Power. The Commonwealth is funding its $20,000,000 contribution through a
Transportation Partnership Opportunity Fund Grant (the "TPOF Grant").
■ Considerations: The TPOF Grant is structured as a 50% matching grant, where the
grant will be available to pay only up to 50% of the total purchase price. Therefore, the City must
exercise the Option to purchase the Reserved Easement now in order to receive the entire $20
million grant. If the City does not exercise the Option now, the TPOF Grant will be $17.5 million
now and an additional $2.5 million when the Option is exercised.
The TPOF Grant is being funded by the Commonwealth in accordance with Chapter 130 of the
2010 Acts of Assembly (the "Authorizing Legislation"), which provides that the funds are for
expansion of the Norfolk Light Rail system. A study in furtherance of the Norfolk Light Rail
system is ongoing. If the terms of the Authorizing Legislation are not complied with by the
deadlines set forth in the TPOF Grant agreement, then the City must repay the $20 million grant
to the Commonwealth.
■ Public Information: A public hearing was advertised in The Virginian -Pilot Beacon on
Sunday, September 5, 2010. The hearing will be at 6pm on September 14 at the City Council
Chambers. Also, this item will be published in the normal Council Agenda process.
■ Recommendations: It is recommended that City Council approve the ordinance to
accept and appropriate TPOF Grant funds in the amount of $20 million from the Commonwealth
and to appropriate $5 million from the General Fund Fund Balance to exercise the Option now.

■ Background: In the summer of 2002, as part of the Homeland Security Initiative,
the City established the Citizen Corps Council (CCC) and Community Emergency
Response Team (CERT) programs. The local CCC is a committee supporting the
CERT project, the Medical Reserve Corps, and the Neighborhood Watch program. The
CERT utilizes local volunteers to support community emergency preparedness efforts
and provide basic emergency intervention. The use of CERT volunteers during Tropical
Storm Hanna and the November Nor'easter was widely applauded as an effective
extension of City services. CERT volunteers assist residents in preparation for and the
effects of disasters. Both the CCC and CERT utilize volunteers as their primary
workforces and interact with various City departments.
The United States Department of Homeland Security through the Virginia Department of
Emergency Management has awarded a grant of $31,135 from the 2009 State
Homeland Security Grant to the City to continue the Virginia Beach CCC and CERT
programs for an eighth year. The Fire Department oversees both of these programs.
■ Considerations: This grant will focus on the maintenance of the CERT
program, which includes training of an additional 100+ volunteers and maintaining the
certification of the existing 700+ volunteers. Additionally, grant funds will be used to
continue the development of the CCC, including raising awareness in the business
community and educational institutions, as well as developing partners and resources.
There is no local match for this grant.
■ Public Information: Public information will be handled through the normal
Council agenda process.
■ Recommendations: Accept and appropriate $31,135 for the Virginia Beach Fire
Department to maintain these programs.

AGENDA ITEM
ITEM: Resolution Referring to Planning Commission City Zoning Ordinance
Amendments Pertaining to Environmental Education Centers
MEETING DATE: September 14, 2010
■ Background: The City Zoning Ordinance currently contains no provision
allowing environmental education centers owned by a nongovernmental entity to be
located in the P-1 Preservation District. As environmental education centers are a
good fit for the stated purposes of the P-1 District, which include preserving such areas
for the "benefit, enjoyment and general welfare of the public," the Staff believes that the
CZO should be amended to allow such environmental education centers as a
conditional use.
■ Considerations: The resolution refers to the Planning Commission proposed
amendments that define environmental education centers, establish standards for such
centers, and allow them as a conditional use in the P-1 Preservation District.
■ Public Information: The resolution itself does not require any form of
advertising; the actual ordinance amendments, however, will be the subject of twice -
advertised public hearings before both the Planning Commission and the City Council.
■ Recommendations: Adoption of resolution
■ Attachments: Ordinance setting forth proposed City Zoning Ordinance

AGENDA ITEM
ITEM: A Resolution Authorizing the Conversion of a Nonconforming Use on
Property Located at 4100 Charity Neck Road for Victor M. and Barbara A. West,
4100 Charity Neck Road (GPIN 2411631692). PRINCESS ANNE DISTRICT.
MEETING DATE: September 14, 2010
■ Background:
The applicants request a change of a nonconforming use (retail/storage facility)
in order to allow an antique/craft shop to be located within the existing building on
the site. The building on site was constructed in 1925. The applicant indicates
that the site has housed retail and storage facilities since the building was
constructed. Previous retail shops and storage facilities such as Brinkley's Store,
Corner Store, and Trader Vick's are considered nonconforming because the site
is zoned AG -2 Agricultural and the AG -2 Agricultural District does not permit
retail or storage establishments. Since this site has housed retail/storage uses
prior to the adoption of the City's Princess Anne County Zoning Ordinance in
1954, these commercial uses are considered non -conforming uses.
This request to allow an antique/craft shop instead of the previous
grocery/storage facilities will not affect the exterior of the site. The type of retail
sold from this facility, however, will differ slightly, as opposed to groceries, deli,
and drugstore types of retail, the proposed shop will sell antiques including
jewelry, paper goods, soaps, and knitted/crocheted items. No thrift store items
will be sold at this location. Classes will also be held to complement the antique
shop. Types of classes include floral arrangements, knitting/crocheting, jewelry
making, and painting classes.
■ Considerations:
The proposed alteration is reasonable. This site has always housed retail,
grocery, and/or storage facilities. The site is bordered by a church and day-care
facility to the north and single-family dwellings to the south, east, and west.
There is an existing buffer located along the south and eastern property lines that
is sufficient to screen the existing commercial facility from the surrounding
residential uses. Given that this site has always housed commercial or storage
facilities, staff finds that the proposed antique/craft shop is acceptable and
recommends approval subject to the conditions listed below.
Victor M. & Barbara A. West

■ Recommendations:
Staff recommends approval of this request to the City Council with the following
conditions:
1. The applicants shall obtain all necessary permits and inspections from the
Planning Department / Permits and Inspections Division and the Fire
Department. The applicants shall obtain a Certificate of Occupancy for the
change of use from the Building Official.
2. Hours of operation shall be limited to between 8:OOa.m. to 8:OOp.m., Monday

EVALUATION AND RECOMMENDATION
The proposed change in use is reasonable and as appropriate to the area as the previous non-
conforming uses. Based on interviews of residents in and around 4100 Charity Neck Road, this site has
always housed retail, grocery, and/or storage facilities. The site is bordered by a church and day-care
facility to the north and single-family dwellings to the south, east, and west. There is an existing buffer
located along the south and eastern property lines that is sufficient to screen the existing commercial
facility from the surrounding residential uses.
Given that this site has always housed commercial or storage types of facilities, staff finds that the
proposed antique craft shop is acceptable and recommends approval subject to the conditions listed
below.

Road (GPIN 1495373329). Deferred on June 9, 2010. BEACH DISTRICT.
MEETING DATE: September 14, 2010
■ Background:
The Conditional Use Permit for a recreational facility of an outdoor nature was
approved by the City Council on March 23, 2004 and modified August 9, 2005
and September 8, 2009. The applicant has renewed the lease with the soccer
complex owner and requests two changes to Condition 5. Condition 5 regulates
the use of the outdoor lighting. The applicant requests modification of this
condition, as certain requirements of the condition, such as the installation of the
glare guards and timers, have been installed at the soccer complex. The first of
the two changes is to remove the July 8, 2010 restriction on the use of the
outdoor field lights. The second change is to permit the use of the outdoor field
lights to include Saturdays, No change in time is requested; the lights would still
be extinguished at 9:00 p.m.
The 2009 Conditional of Use Permit has 8 conditions as listed below:
1. The applicant shall request a variance from the Chesapeake Bay Preservation
Area Board if the Planning Director or his designee determines that this is
required.
2. The fields shall be used for practices and for adult league games. There shall,
however, be no events that would draw spectators. No bleachers or spectator
seating is permitted on the property.
3. A right-of-way reservation shall be provided along Shipps Corner Road as
required for the Shipps Corner Road Bridge Replacement Plan CIP 2-174 and as
called for in the Master Transportation Plan.
4. Right and/or left turn lanes shall be constructed on Shipps Corner Road if Public
Works Traffic Engineering determines that they are required during the detailed
plan review process.
5. Any outdoor recreational lighting fixtures shall be no higher than forty (40) feet
and shall be directed downward. In addition, glare guards, Daybrite Model VSLL,
shall be added to all lights facing Shipps Corner Road. The field lights may not
be used until glare guards have been installed. The field lights shall be controlled
by timers and can only be used Monday through Friday until 9:00 p.m. The lights

by timers and can only be used Monday through Friday until 9:00 p.m. The lights
are approved to be used in this manner until July 8, 2010. After July 8, 2010 the
lights shall not be used unless approved by City Council following a Public
Hearing and recommendations from the Planning Commission. Outdoor parking
lot lighting shall be no higher than twenty five (25) feet and shall be directed
downward and shielded to direct light and glare onto premises and away from
adjoining properties.
6. Restrooms/first aid building shall be developed in substantial conformance with
the submitted plan entitled "New Building Shipps Corner Road Virginia Beach
Virginia" prepared by Kelly Jean Olt dated March 10, 2005.
7. The indoor soccer facility shall be developed in substantial conformance with the
submitted plan entitled "Conditional Use Exhibit for Shipps Corner Soccer
Complex #2949 Shipps Corner Road Virginia Beach Virginia" prepared by WPL
Landscape Architects, Land Surveyors, Engineers dated June 29, 2005.
8. The indoor facility shall be developed in substantial conformance with the
submitted rendering entitled "RAVE SOCCER COMPLEX LLC".
■ Considerations:
This soccer facility does need field lights on to allow soccer practices to occur
after the school day has ended and dusk begins. The lights provide the visibility
for safe soccer practices. The field lights are bright lights. The applicant has
installed glare guards on all field lights facing Shipps Corner Road and timers on
all the field lights. The field lights were approved to be used with the glare guards
and timers until July 8, 2010.
The residents of Cardinal Estates located across Shipps Corner Road from the
soccer complex understand the soccer complex had been approved by City
Council. The residents' complaints are with the brightness of the field lights. In an
effort to reduce the impact of the field lights on their neighbors across Shipps
Corner Road, the applicant discussed with staff the following field light revisions.
Four light poles facing Shipps Corner Road will be conditioned for the lights to
remain off in the evening. These four banks of lights do not affect the visibility on
the soccer fields but will aid in diminishing glare. The remaining lights that are lit
facing Shipps Corner Road have glare guards. Any other field lights on do not
face Shipps Corner Road.
Additionally, the applicant requested to extend the number of nights that lighting
may be utilized to include Saturdays is not acceptable. As repeated above, the
residents of Cardinal Estates have voiced numerous concerns regarding the
lighting of this complex. The existing outdoor recreational lights have been
hindering the visibility at the entrance of Cardinal Estate's residential
neighborhood since the lights have been in use. Adding another evening will
exacerbate the issue as we work to diminish the glare.
Virginia Beach Travel Soccer, Inc.
Page 3 of 4
Furthermore, the applicant had indicated during the recently approved
modification of conditions allowing the indoor soccer facility that the indoor facility
would take the place of one of the lighted outdoor fields shown on the approved
site plan. The indoor field would aid in the ability to hold evening practices or
practices during inclement weather, thus limiting some outdoor evening activity
and, some concern caused by the field lights.
Staff recommends approval of this requested modification as conditioned below.
There was opposition to the request.
■ Recommendations:
The Planning Commission, passing a motion by a recorded vote of 11-0,
recommended approval of this request to the City Council with the following
conditions:
1. The applicant shall request a variance from the Chesapeake Bay
Preservation Area Board if the Planning Director or his designee determines
that this is required.
2. The fields shall be used for practices and for adult league games. There shall,
however, be no events that would draw spectators. No bleachers or spectator
seating is permitted on the property.
3. A right-of-way reservation shall be provided along Shipps Corner Road as
required for the Shipps Corner Road Bridge Replacement Plan CIP 2-174 and
as called for in the Master Transportation Plan.
4. Right and/or left turn lanes shall be constructed on Shipps Corner Road if
Public Works Traffic Engineering determines that they are required during the
detailed plan review process.
5. All outdoor recreational lighting fixtures shall be no higher than forty (40) feet
and shall be directed downward. In addition, glare guards, Daybrite Model
VSLL, have been added to all lights facing Shipps Corner Road and must
remain in place. The four poles of designated field lights facing Shipps Corner
Road must remain turned off. The designated field lights are as follows: one
pole of field lights facing Shipps Corner Road in the last row closest to the
south and east property lines and three consecutive poles of field lights facing
Shipps Corner Road in the second row from the south property line on the
eastern end of the property as labeled on the site layout. The field lights shall
be controlled by timers and can only be used Monday through Friday until
9:00 p.m. Outdoor parking lot lighting shall be no higher than twenty five (25)
feet and shall be directed downward and shielded to direct light and glare
onto premises and away from adjoining properties.

COMPREHENSIVE PLAN:
The Comprehensive Plan designates the area where this property is located as the South Oceana - Special
Economic Growth Area 3. The Plan identifies this area as a special area with significant economic value and
growth potential, (page 3-32, Policy Document).
All development proposals in this suburban area should incorporate the 'Special Area Development
Guidelines' outlined in the Comprehensive Plan Reference Handbook. These guidelines provide specific site
design guidance for developments in the Suburban Area that protect the integrity of existing neighborhoods,
complement adjacent land uses, incorporate crime prevention principles, and enhance the overall function and
visual quality of neighboring properties and community. Lighting of non-residential buildings should be
designed as an integral part of the building's architecture to be as unobtrusive as possible. Lighting, especially
on the rear of buildings that face residential areas, should be designed and placed so that it does not direct or
reflect any illumination into residential areas (pages B-7 to B-13, Reference Handbook).
CITY SERVICES
MASTER TRANSPORTATION PLAN (MTP) / CAPITAL IMPROVEMENT PROGRAM (CIP): Shipps Comer
Road is a two-lane connector. Currently, Shipps Comer Road has as its western terminus a T -intersection with
Holland Road approximately 1,350 feet west of the site. In mid-May 2010, however, CIP Project #2-073
Buckner Boulevard Extended will open and this intersection will become a 4 -way intersection. Due to the
anticipated increase in traffic on Shipps Corner Road as a result of the Buckner Boulevard project, three
projects have been programmed under CIP Project #2-300 Traffic Safety Improvements Phase III for Shipps
Comer Road. In particular, one of these three projects entails increasing a curve radius and building turn
lanes on Shipps Corner Road at Old Clubhouse Road. This will affect Shipps Comer Road along the site's
northern frontage. The other two projects will be improvements at the intersection of Shipps Corner Road with
London Bridge Road and installation of a median on the approach to Holland Road. These two projects will be
approximately one half mile east and one fifth mile west of the site, respectively.
The request to modify the conditions will not alter the use as a soccer complex or expand the soccer
complex. Accordingly, the modification should have no impact on the site's trip generation.

AGENDA ITEM
ITEM: AMERIGROUP CORPORATION, Conditional Use Permit, eating and
drinking establishment, 4433 Corporation Lane (GPIN 1477774006). BAYSIDE
DISTRICT.
MEETING DATE: September 14, 2010
■ Background:
The applicant requests a Conditional Use Permit to allow a cafe/deli to be located
within an existing 60,059 square foot office building. The City Zoning Ordinance
allows eating and drinking establishments within an Office District if the following
criteria are satisfied: 1) a Conditional Use Permit is granted; 2) the eating and
drinking establishment is in connection with the principal use; and 3) the eating
and drinking establishment does not occupy more than 10 percent of the total
floor area involved in the principal use.
Through this Conditional Use Permit request, the applicant is attempting to
satisfy the requirements to allow an eating and drinking establishment at this site.
The proposed 1,500 square foot cafe/deli is approximately two and a half percent
of the overall office building. As is required by the City Zoning Ordinance, the
proposed use is less than ten percent of the principal use on-site. Also, by virtue
of the shop being located within an office building, this deli/cafe will primarily
serve employees within the offices on-site. Therefore, the shop is in connection
with the principal use (office building) as is also required by the City Zoning
Ordinance. The applicant's representative further maintains that the caf6/deli will
not contain conventional ovens or stoves. The use of microwave ovens as well
as soup and sandwich warming devices will be available on site to aide in the
preparation of food.
The three-story office building is centered on the site with 275 parking spaces to
the south and east of the building. Two access points are provided off of
Corporation Lane and no alterations are proposed to the exterior of the building.
■ Considerations:
The proposed 1,500 square foot caf6/deli within the office building is acceptable.
In accordance with City Zoning Ordinances, this use is appropriate because the
proposed caf6 is less than 10 percent of the overall building square footage and
Amerigroup Corporation
Page 2of2
is ancillary to the office use. This ancillary cafe adds an amenity to the existing
office building and will enhance the working environment of employees.
In fact, the Comprehensive Plan recommends taking advantage of the waterfront
area located to the rear of site by offering cafes. Although this particular cafe is
located entirely inside the building, the proposal is in conformance with our City's
Comprehensive Plan and compatible with the surrounding office and business
uses.
Staff further finds that the proposed cafe/deli will be a positive addition to this
office complex. The site's 275 parking spaces are sufficient to satisfy City
parking requirements for the existing office use and proposed cafe/deli according
to the City's Zoning Ordinance. Additionally, traffic generated by this use should
not change. Staff, thus, recommends approval of this request with the following
condition listed.
There was no opposition to the 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 of this request to the
City Council with the following conditions:
1. All signs shall be in conformance with Article 2 (B) and Section 805 of the
City of Virginia Beach Zoning Ordinance.

SUMMARY OF REQUEST
The applicant requests a Conditional Use Permit to allow a cafe/deli to be located within an existing
60,059 square foot office building. The City Zoning Ordinance allows eating and drinking establishments
within an Office District if the following criteria are satisfied: 1) a Conditional Use Permit is granted; 2) the
eating and drinking establishment is in connection with the principal use; and 3) the eating and drinking
establishment does not occupy more than 10 percent of the total floor area involved in the principal use.
Through this Conditional Use Permit request, the applicant is attempting to satisfy the requirements to
allow an eating and drinking establishment at this site. The proposed 1,500 square foot cafe/deli is
approximately two and a half percent of the overall office building. As is required by the City Zoning
Ordinance, the proposed use is less than ten percent of the principal use on-site. Also, by virtue of the
shop being located within an office building, this deli/cafe will primarily serve employees within the offices
on-site. Therefore, the shop is in connection with the principal use (office building) as is also required by
the City Zoning Ordinance. The applicant's representative further maintains that the cafe/deli will not
contain conventional ovens or stoves. The use of microwave ovens as well as soup and sandwich
warming devices will be available on site to aide in the preparation of food.
The three-story office building is centered on the site with 275 parking spaces to the south and east of the
building. Two access points are provided off of Corporation Lane and no alterations are proposed to the
exterior of the building.

PUBLIC WORKSITRAFFIC ENGINEERING: The proposed 1,500 square foot cafe/deli is situated within an
office building and considered part of the existing office use for trip generation purposes. The Institute of
Transportation Engineers indicates that trip generation data for general office buildings allow ancillary non -
office uses within an office building, specifically including a restaurant or cafeteria. Accordingly, there will be
no change to the building's trip generation and should be no change to overall traffic volumes.
WATER & SEWER: This site currently connects to City water and sanitary sewer.
EVALUATION AND RECOMMENDATION
The proposed 1,500 square foot cafe/deli within the office building is acceptable. In accordance with City
Zoning Ordinances, this use is appropriate because the proposed cafe is less than 10 percent of the
overall building square footage and is ancillary to the office use. This ancillary cafe adds an amenity to
the existing office building and will enhance the working environment of employees.
In fact, the Comprehensive Plan recommends taking advantage of the waterfront area located to the rear
of site by offering cafes. Although this particular cafe is located entirely inside the building, the proposal
is in conformance with our City's Comprehensive Plan and compatible with the surrounding office and
business uses.
Staff further finds that the proposed cafe/deli will be a positive addition to this office complex. The site's
275 parking spaces are sufficient to satisfy City parking requirements for the existing office use and
proposed cafe/deli according to the City's Zoning Ordinance. Additionally, traffic generated by this use
should not change. Staff, thus, recommends approval of this request with the following condition listed.

CITY OF VIRGINIA BEACH
AGENDA ITEM
ITEM: CITY OF VIRGINIA BEACH, an Ordinance to amend Section 501 of the City
Zoning Ordinance pertaining outdoor recreational and amusement facilities in
residential districts.
MEETING DATE: September 14, 2010
■ Background:
The proposed amendments to the City Zoning Ordinance pertain to conditional
use permits for outdoor recreational or amusement facilities in the Residential
Districts. Outdoor recreational facilities are currently allowed as a conditional use
in the Residential Districts and such facilities may be partially or temporarily
enclosed on a seasonal basis with the approval of City Council. The current code
accommodates temporary enclosures such as inflatable structures however; it
does not allow indoor recreation uses. As a result, a temporary enclosure cannot
be upgraded to a permanent structure in the Residential Districts without this
amendment.
■ Considerations:
The proposed amendments expand the current regulations to allow permanently
enclosed indoor areas to be approved as part of a conditional use permit for
outdoor recreation in the Residential Districts. The indoor areas must be for the
same activities conducted on the outdoor portion and the total area of such
indoor components may not exceed 20% of the total site area covered by the
conditional use permit.
There was no opposition to the proposed amendment at the Planning
Commission hearing.
■ Recommendations:
The Planning Commission placed this item on the Consent Agenda, passing a
motion by a recorded vote of 11-0, to recommend approval of the amendment to
the City Council.
