CITY OF VIRGINIA BEACH
AGENDA ITEM
ITEM: An Ordinance to Amend Section 5-531 of the City Code Pertaining to Keeping
Dogs Under Restraint; Leash Law
MEETING DATE: March 13, 2012
■ Background: The City currently requires dogs to be on a leash while on any
public street, sidewalk or right-of-way. There is no such requirement for dogs in
City parks. It has been a long-standing policy in the City's parks to require dogs
to be on leashes, however, the policy is unenforceable. When complaints are
received, Animal Control officers or Police officers need enforcement authority.
This is a particular problem in the many unstaffed parks throughout the City.
This item was deferred on February 28, 2012.
■ Considerations: This amendment will require dogs to be on a leash while on
city park property, and clarifies the requirement is applicable to owners and
custodians of the dogs.
■ Public Information: Public information will be handled through the normal
agenda process.
■ Recommendations: Approval
■ Attachments: Ordinance

12 Sec. 5-531. - Keeping dogs under restraint; leash law.
13 (a) It shall be unlawful for the owner or custodian of any dog to permit the
14 dog to go upon any city park, public street, sidewalk or right-of-way, excluding the public
15 beaches of the city, unless it is kept secured by a leash or lead or other means of
16 restraint not harmful or injurious to the dog and under the control of a responsible
17 person capable of physically restraining the dog.
18 (b) Any person who does not restrain his dog, in accordance with this
19 section, whether such person be the owner or custodian of such dog, shall be guilty of a
20 class 4 misdemeanor. The animal control officer or police officer may issue a summons
21 to any person he finds in violation of this section.
22 (c) For the purpose of this section "city park" means any city -owned and
23 operated property open to the public for general recreational use including, but not
24 limited to traditional park areas canoe and kayak launch areas and the disabled
25 children's beach playground known as Grommet Park.
26 (ed) Exceptions.

28 supervision while lawfully hunting, while engaged in a supervised formal
29 obedience training class or show, or during formally sanctioned field trials.
30 (2) This section shall not apply to any person south of the trace line beginning

CITY OF VIRGINIA BEACH
AGENDA ITEM
ITEM: An Ordinance to Amend the City Code by Amending Sections 27-21, 27-22 and
27-25 Pertaining to the Disposal of Unclaimed Property
MEETING DATE: March 13, 2012
■ Background: The Police Department frequently receives property owned by
others. Such property includes stolen property, lost property turned over to the
department by the finder of the property, and property in the possession of persons who
are arrested. Extensive efforts are made to return the property to its rightful owner prior
to a lawful auction, but property with little or no resale value cannot be successfully
auctioned. The City Code currently only provides for the disposal of unclaimed property
in the possession of the department by public auction or by returning the property to the
finder who turned over lost property into the department. The department has become
inundated with property that is unsuitable for resale, but the City Code currently does
not authorize the department to discard such property.
■ Considerations: This ordinance would authorize the Police Department to
destroy or otherwise dispose of property that has not been claimed after ninety (90)
days when that property is unsuitable for resale. In cases where police are left to store
property in the possession of arrested persons, those persons will be provided written
notice that they or a designated third party must pick up the property within ninety (90)
days or that property will be subject to public auction or other disposal. The arrested
person will also be sent a letter via first class mail to the address provided at the time of
arrest when the holding period nears an end. This ordinance is similar to the direction
provided by state law to the State Treasurer and Administrator with respect to the
destruction or disposal of property that has insubstantial commercial value however the
state only requires a sixty (60) day holding period were this ordinance requires a ninety
(90) day holding period prior to destruction. These amendments define property of
"insubstantial commercial value" as items that are unsuitable for resale, or items with a
value less than the cost of giving notice and holding a sale, and the amendments will
allow the Police Department to destroy or discard such items rather than storing them
indefinitely. These amendments also incorporate the state code authorization for the
department to retain items that have a legitimate law enforcement use.
■ Public Information: Public information will be handled through the normal
agenda process.
■ Attachments: Ordinance.
Recommended Action: Approval

11
12 That Sections 27-21, 27-22 and 27-25 of the Code of the City of Virginia Beach,
13 Virginia, are hereby amended and reordained to read as follows:
14 Sec. 27-21. - Disposal of unclaimed property in possession of police.
15 (a) Any unclaimed personal property which has been in the possession of the
16 department of police and remains unclaimed for a period of more than sixty (60) days
17 may be sold at public auction or retained for use by the Police Department in
18 accordance with the provisions of this article. As used herein, "unclaimed personal
19 property" shall be any personal property belonging to another which has been acquired
20 by a law enforcement officer pursuant to his duties, which is not needed in any criminal
21 prosecution, which has not been claimed by its rightful owner and which the state
22 treasurer has indicated will be declined if remitted under the Uniform Disposition of
23 Unclaimed Property Act of the Code of Virginia.
24 (b) Notwithstanding the provisions of subsection (a) above, bicycles and
25 lost/found property may be disposed of in accordance with sections 27-24 and 27-25.
26 (c) Any unclaimed personal property, as described in subsection (a) above,
27 that has insubstantial commercial value may be destroyed or otherwise disposed of
28 after it remains unclaimed for a period of more than ninety (90) days. For the purpose
29 of this subsection "insubstantial commercial value" includes items that are unsuitable for
30 resale or items deemed to have a value less than the cost of giving notice and holding
31 a sale.
32 Sec. 27-22. - Requirements prior to sale or retention by Police Department.
33 (a) Prior to the sale or retention by Police Department of any unclaimed item
34 the chief of police or his duly authorized agent shall make reasonable attempts to notify
35 the rightful owner of the property, obtain from the commonwealth's attorney in writing a
36 statement advising that the item is not needed in any criminal prosecution, and cause to
37 be published in a newspaper of general circulation in the locality once a week for two (2)
38 successive weeks, notice that there will be a public sale of unclaimed personal property.
39 Such property shall be described generally in the notice, together with the date, time
40 and place of the sale. The chief of police, or his duly authorized agent, shall pay from
41 the proceeds of the sale the cost of advertisement, removal, storage and investigation
42 as to ownership and liens, and notice of sale. The balance of the funds shall be held by
43 such officer for the owner and paid to the owner upon satisfactory proof of ownership.
44 (b) Any unclaimed item retained for use by the Police Department shall
45 become the property of the City and shall be retained only if, in the opinion of the chief
46 of police or his designee there is a legitimate use for the property by the department
47 and retention of the item is a more economical alternative than purchase of a similar or
48 eauivalent item.
49 Sec. 27-23. - Disposition of funds from sale.
50 If no claim has been made by the owner for the proceeds of such sale within sixty
51 (60) days of the sale, the remaining funds shall be deposited in the general fund of the
52 city. Any such owner shall be entitled to apply to the city within three (3) years from the
53 date of the sale and, if timely application is made therefor, the city shall pay the
54 remaining proceeds of the sale to the owner without interest or other charges. No claim
55 shall be made nor any suit, action or proceeding be instituted for the recovery of such
56 funds after three (3) years from the date of the sale.

59 bicycle, electric -powered wheeled device, gas -powered wheeled device, golf cart,
60 surrey or moped which has been in the possession of the department of police,

CITY OF VIRGINIA BEACH
AGENDA ITEM
ITEMS: 1. An Ordinance to Amend and Reordain the Code of the City of Virginia
Beach, by adding Chapter 35.4, "Tourism Zones" and to Create the Resort
Tourism Zone
2. A Resolution Adopting a City Council Policy for Consideration of
Tourism Projects for the Tourism Project Financing Program
MEETING DATE: March 13, 2012
■ Background: The City Council adopted the Resort Area Strategic Action Plan
("RASAP") in December 2008. This plan included various projects the City believed
would enhance the Resort Area and stimulate tourism. The General Assembly has
provided an additional tool for the encouragement of tourism projects, such as the
priorities established in the RASAP. Section 58.1-3851.1 of the Virginia Code provides
a mechanism for providing funding streams for tourism projects that meet a void in a
locally adopted plan, such as the RASAP. This development tool provides a mechanism
to use a portion of the sales and other taxes generated on the premises (1 cent of the
state sales tax with an equal contribution in local taxes and an equally sized "access
fee") to pay for the project. For a qualifying tourism project, the funding streams must
be directed to support the project's need for "gap financing," as that term is defined by
statute. This gap financing is not City or State debt. Any debt belongs to the project
and the developer. In order for the City to be eligible to participate in the incentive
provided by § 58.1-3851 of the Virginia Code, the City must have established a tourism
zone.
Section 58.1-3851 of the Code of Virginia authorizes localities to establish tourism
zones. A tourism zone is a portion of the City where the City Council desires to promote
tourism related businesses. The establishment of one or more zones allows the City to
provide various financial incentives including the reduction of user fees, the reduction of
permit fees, and the reduction of business license taxes. Once established, the City
Council may enact future ordinances if it desires to establish more than one tourism
zone.
Currently, the City has one similar type of incentive zone. In March 2006, the Council
established the APZ-1 Technology/Business Opportunity Zone. This Zone was created
to encourage the establishment and growth of businesses that are compatible with
aircraft operations at Naval Air Station Oceana and other uses in the APZ-1.
■ Considerations: This agenda item has two parts. First, there is an ordinance to
establish a tourism zone, the Resort Tourism Zone. Second, there is a resolution to
adopt procedures for the consideration of tourism projects.
The tourism zone ordinance has two articles. Article I provides the general rules and
definitions applicable to the establishment of tourism zones in the City. Article Il
provides the establishment of the City's first tourism zone, the Resort Tourism Zone.
The general rules applicable to tourism zones are provided in Article I including:
• A statement of the intent of the City to encourage capital investment and
employment opportunities;
• The administration of a tourism zone; and
• The process for establishing a tourism zone including the boundaries and the
incentives.
The establishment of the Resort Tourism Zone in Article II provides the physical location
of the zone. No incentives are provided for this Tourism Zone at this time because this
Zone is established to allow the City to pursue the tourism project financing program
provided in § 58.1-3851.1 of the Virginia Code.
The resolution provides for adoption of a Council Policy containing procedures for the
consideration of tourism projects. This policy will allow staff to evaluate projects before
such projects are brought to City Council for approval. The City Council approval of
such projects is required before any project is forwarded to the Virginia Tourism
Authority and the State Comptroller for review and approval. Upon completion of the
state and local approvals, the developer of the project would enter into a performance
agreement with the Virginia Beach Development Authority. The performance
agreement serves three functions. First, the performance agreement requires the
project developer to impose an "access fee" that will provide a portion of revenues from
the project to be directed toward the "gap financing." Second, the performance
agreement sets forth the development requirements for the project. Third, the
performance agreement provides the mechanism for the State, local, and "access fee"
revenue streams to be directed to pay the "gap financing."
■ Public Information: Public information will be provided by the normal Council
agenda process. City Council was briefed on this item at its February 7th Council
workshop. Additionally, a hearing was held at the February 28th Council Formal
Session to seek public input.
■ Attachments: Tourism Zone Ordinance (with attached map of the proposed
Tourism Zone); Resolution to Adopt City Council Policy (with attached City Council
Policy)

Page 1 of 6
1.0 Purpose and Need
To transform the Virginia Beach Resort from a seasonal venue to a year-
round destination, private development will be necessary; however, some
potential tourism projects have experienced difficulty obtaining the financing
necessary to make the projects a reality. A means for bridging the financing gap
was established by the General Assembly, codified as § 58.1-3851.1 of the
Virginia Code. This program provides additional funding — in the form of cash
flows — once projects are operational that may be directed to closing a financing
gap between the debt and equity a developer currently has and the total
financing required by a tourism project. This program may generally be referred
to as "Tourism Project Gap Financing Program" or, as hereinafter referred to as,
the "Program."
2.0 Policy Statement
The purpose of this policy is:
a) To provide guidance to City staff for the evaluation of proposed tourism
projects that seek to utilize the Program;
b) To signal to the development community the types of tourism projects that
would be eligible for the Program and the various steps required for final
approval; and
c) To inform the broader community of the public purpose advanced by the
Program.

3.0 Definitions
3.1 Gap Financing — debt financing to compensate for a shortfall in project funding
between the expected development costs of an authorized tourism project and
the debt and equity capital provided by the developer of the project. Gap
financing shall not exceed 20% of the total debt and equity required for a tourism
project.
3.2 Performance Agreement — an agreement between the developer and development
authority. The Performance Agreement shall affirmatively state that the
Agreement does not create debt of the State or the City. The agreement has three
functions. First, the Performance Agreement requires the developer to impose an
"access fee" in the amount of 1% of all transactions occurring on the project
premises. Second, the Performance Agreement establishes minimum
performance requirements for the tourism project including capital investment,
new jobs, or other measureable criteria. Third, the Performance Agreement sets
forth the payment of the revenue streams in the amounts and for the purposes
provided by § 58.1-3851.1 of the Virginia Code.
3.3 Tourism Development Financing Program — a program provided by the General
Assembly allowing state tax, local tax, and private developer "access fee"
revenue streams to be directed to gap financing. This Program does not allow
the creation of new state or local debt either through debt issuance or loan
guarantee(s).
3.4 Tourism Marketing Plan — a strategic plan adopted by the City Council and
required by Virginia Tourism Authority, which describes the City's action plan
for tourism related development.
3.5 Tourism Zone — a zone designated by the City Council to encourage tourism
related economic activities as provided by § 58.1-3851 of the Virginia Code.
3.6 Qualifying Tourism Project — a project that fills a void identified by the Tourism
Development Plan, is located in the Tourism Zone, meets the approval of City
staff based on the evaluation factors identified in this policy, has been endorsed,
by ordinance by the City Council, has been approved by the Virginia Tourism
Authority, and has been certified by the State Comptroller as qualifying for the
entitlement to tax revenues authorized by § 58.1-3851.1 of the Virginia Code.

4.0 How the Program Works
4.1 Debt Responsibility. The Program does not create State or City Debt.
4.2 Revenue Flows. The amount of revenue is keyed to one cent of the sales and use
taxes generated on the tourism project premises. This amount is provided from the Tax
Commissioner on a quarterly basis. The amount of the local tax portion and the "access
fee" are equal to the amount provided by the Tax Commissioner. After the completion
of all steps set forth herein, the flow of revenues is as follows:
a) State Sales Taxes (certified by the Tax Commissioner) --> State Comptroller
remits these revenues to the City 4 City remits to the Development Authority
4 Development Authority, pursuant to the Performance Agreement, pays to the
Gap Financing.
b) Local Taxes (in an amount equal to the amount certified by the Tax
Commissioner) 4 City remits to the Development Authority 4 Development
Authority, pursuant to the Performance Agreement, pays to the Gap Financing.
c) "Access Fee" (imposed by project developer and memorialized in the
Performance Agreement; in an amount equal to the amount certified by the Tax
Commissioner) --> Developer remits to the City 4 City remits to the
Development Authority --> Development Authority, pursuant to the Performance
Agreement, pays to the Gap Financing.
4.3 Prerequisites. Section 58.1-3851.1 of the Virginia Code requires the following
prerequisites:
a) The City Council has to adopt a Tourism Marketing Plan. The Tourism
Marketing Plan provides a description of the types of tourism projects the City
desires as a matter of strategic priority. A Qualifying Tourism Project must fill a
void identified by the Tourism Marketing Plan.
b) The City Council had to adopt a Tourism Zone. A Qualifying Tourism Project
must be located in the Tourism Zone.
c) To qualify for the Program, the project developer must demonstrate a shortfall in
project funding between the expected development costs of the proposed tourism
project and the debt and equity capital provided by the developer of the project.

CITY OF VIRGINIA BEACH
AGENDA ITEM
ITEM: Resolution of the City of Virginia Beach, Virginia, Providing for the Issuance and
Sale of General Obligation Public Improvement Bonds, Heretofore Authorized, in the
Maximum Amount of $72,000,000, and General Obligation Public Improvement
Refunding Bonds in the Maximum Principal Amount of $60,000,000 to Refund
Previously Authorized and Issued Bonds, and Providing for the Form, Details and
Payment Thereof
MEETING DATE: March 13, 2012
■ Background: Based on a review of capital project expenditures, the Department of
Finance has begun preparations for a general obligation new money bond sale in the
maximum amount up to $72,000,000. The bond sale is composed of portions of the
FY2011 and FY2012 Charter Bond Authorizations previously approved by Council on
May 11, 2010 and May 10, 2011, respectively. The bond proceeds from this issuance
and sale will reimburse previously authorized expenditures for CIP projects. Based on
current market conditions, the City's Financial Advisor, Public Resources Advisory
Group ("PRAG"), have recommended that this sale take place on April 4, 2012.
In addition to the new money sale, the Department of Finance and the City's Financial
Advisor recommend that the City issue refunding bonds to save on the costs of future
debt service. For the bonds that are candidates for refunding, favorable market
conditions allow the City to redeem these bonds and issue refunding bonds at a
significant debt service savings.
■ Considerations: The new money sale represents the City's annual general obligation
bond sale. The City's Bond Counsel has prepared the enclosed resolution authorizing
the issuance and sale of the bonds. The bonds will be sold electronically by competitive
bid, with the actions of the City Manager being conclusive; provided however, that the
bonds shall have a true interest cost not to exceed 4.0%.
For the refunding bonds, there is no issuance of new debt. The City will size the
refunding in a manner that will allow the City to save on debt service payments. As with
previous refunding sales, the Department of Finance will report to Council savings that
result from the refunding.
■ Public Information: Public information will be handled through the normal Council
agenda process. The original Charter Bond Authorizations were part of the public
information process of the City's Resource Management Plan (Budget/CIP). In addition,
the Resolution authorizes the distribution of the Preliminary Official Statement for
marketing purposes. Also, a Notice of Sale will be placed in The Bond Buyer, a daily
newspaper for the tax-exempt bond market.
■ Alternatives: There are no practical alternative funding sources at this time. This
request follows previously approved CIPs.

Recommended Action: Approval

3. Refunding Provisions.
The City Manager is authorized and directed to select the principal maturities of the Prior
Bonds or portions of such maturities to be refunded and to cause to be called for optional
redemption any such maturity or portion thereof to be redeemed prior to its stated maturity in
accordance with the provisions of such bonds; provided such maturities or portions thereof
selected are expected in the aggregate to provide a minimum savings of 3.0% on a net present

verification reports (the "Verification Agent") on aspects of the refunding and is further
authorized to retain the services of one or more escrow agents (the "Escrow Agent") and to enter
into escrow agreements with them to the extent needed to hold and provide for investment of all
or portions of the proceeds of the Refunding Bonds and other funds as needed pending their
application to refund the Prior Bonds or portions thereof selected to be refunded.
4. Redemption Provisions.
(a) Optional Redemption. The Bonds shall be subject to redemption prior to maturity
at the option of the City Manager, in whole or in part, at any time on and after dates, if any,
determined by the City Manager, with the first such optional redemption date beginning no later
than April 1, 2022 as set forth in Section 2 at a redemption price equal to the principal amount to

credit against the mandatory sinking fund redemption obligation of any maturity of term Bonds
in the amount of Bonds of the same maturity that have been optionally redeemed or surrendered
for cancellation and have not been applied previously as such a credit. If the City wishes to take
such a credit, on or before the 70th day next preceding any such mandatory sinking fund
redemption date, the City's Director of Finance may instruct the Registrar to apply a credit
against the City's mandatory sinking fund redemption obligation for any Bonds of the applicable
maturity that have been optionally redeemed or surrendered for cancellation by the City and have
not been previously applied as a credit against any mandatory sinking fund redemption
obligation for that maturity of the Bonds. Each Bond so previously optionally redeemed or
surrendered shall be credited at 100% of the principal amount thereof against the principal
amount of such maturity of the Bonds required to be redeemed on such mandatory sinking fund
redemption date or dates for such maturity as may be selected by the Director of Finance.
(c) Selection of Bonds for Redemption. If less than all of the Bonds are called for
optional redemption, the maturities of the Bonds to be redeemed shall be selected by the City's
Director of Finance in such manner as may be determined to be in the best interest of the City. If
less than all of a particular maturity of the Bonds are called for redemption, the Bonds within
such maturity to be redeemed shall be selected by the Securities Depository pursuant to its rules
and procedures or, if the book -entry system is discontinued, shall be selected by the Registrar by
lot in such manner as the Registrar in its discretion may determine In either case, (a) the portion
of any Bond to be redeemed shall be in the principal amount of $5,000 or some integral multiple
thereof and (b) in selecting Bonds for redemption, each Bond shall be considered as representing
that number of Bonds that is obtained by dividing the principal amount of such Bond by $5,000.

identifying the Bonds or portions thereof to be redeemed to be sent by facsimile transmission,
registered or certified mail or overnight express delivery, not less than 30 nor more than 60 days

owner of the Bonds. If no qualified Securities Depository is the registered owner of the Bonds,
notice of redemption shall be mailed to the registered owners of the Bonds. If a portion of a
Bond is called for redemption, a new Bond in principal amount equal to the unredeemed portion
thereof will be issued to the registered owner upon the surrender thereof.

requested are authorized and directed to execute an appropriate certificate setting forth the

States, for purposes of complying with Section 148 of the Code. Such certificate and elections
shall be in such form as may be requested by bond counsel for the City.
16. Limitation on Private Use. The City covenants that it shall not permit the
proceeds of the Bonds or the facilities financed or refinanced with the proceeds of the Bonds to
be used in any manner that would result in (a) 5% or more of such proceeds or of the facilities
financed or refinanced with such proceeds being used in a trade or business carried on by any
person other than a governmental unit, as provided in Section 141(b) of the Code, (b) 5% or
more of such proceeds or the facilities being financed with such proceeds being used with
respect to any output facility (other than a facility for the furnishing of water), within the
meaning of Section 141(b)(4) of the Code, or (c) 5% or more of such proceeds being used
directly or indirectly to make or finance loans to any person other than a governmental unit, as
provided in Section 141(c) of the Code; provided, that if the City receives an opinion of
nationally recognized bond counsel that any such covenants need not be complied with to
prevent the interest on the Bonds from being includable in the gross income for federal income
tax purposes of the registered owners thereof under existing law, the City need not comply with
such covenants.
17. Continuing Disclosure Agreement. The Mayor, the City Manager and such
officer or officers of the City as either may designate are hereby authorized and directed to
execute and deliver a continuing disclosure agreement setting forth the reports and notices to be
filed by the City and containing such covenants as may be necessary to assist the purchaser of
the Bonds in complying with the provisions of Rule 15c2-12. Such continuing disclosure
agreement shall be substantially in the form attached as an Appendix to the draft of the
Preliminary Official Statement described in Section 11 above, which form is approved with such
completions, omissions, insertions and changes that are not inconsistent with this Resolution.

ITEM: Resolution of the City Council of the

Procedures for Tax -Exempt Bonds
MEETING DATE: March 13, 2012
City of Virginia Beach Authorizing the City
Post -Issuance Compliance Policies and
■ Background: The City issues general obligation and other tax advantaged debt
to pay for capital projects. To maintain the tax-exempt status of such bonds, a number
of tax rules need to be followed after the debt is issued. These rules are provided by
sections 141-150 of the Internal Revenue Code. When the City issues a series of
bonds, it covenants that it will perform all acts necessary to maintain the tax advantaged
status of the bond. Specifically, the City agrees to avoid the two primary rules related to
arbitrage and private use. The arbitrage rule is designed to discourage the use of tax-
exempt debt proceeds to acquire investments with higher yields. The private use rule
requires the bond proceeds be used for public projects. In addition to these two rules,
there are record-keeping and annual disclosure processes.
■ Considerations: The Department of Finance currently undertakes these
activities, but the policies and procedures will consolidate the various activities into a
single document. In addition to the resolution, this agenda item includes a draft of the
proposed Post -Issuance Compliance Policies and Procedures. Upon adoption of this
resolution, the City Manager through the Director of Finance will finalize the Post -
Issuance Compliance Policies and Procedures, so that these written procedures are
complete prior to the next bond closing, which is anticipated in April.
■ Public Information: Public information will be provided by the regular Council
agenda process.

Department of Homeland Security, processed through the Virginia Department of
Emergency Management (VDEM). A resolution of support was provided by City Council
on September 13, 2011. The funds will be used to acquire and deploy new P25
subscriber radios, to ensure adequate emergency communications interoperability and
to acquire related support and maintenance contracts. This grant will improve Public
Safety Answering Point (PSAP/911) and Overlay Regional Interoperability Network
(ORION) capabilities and regional communications plans. On February 6, 2012, VDEM
informed the City of a grant award totaling $2,500,000. The award was subsequently
adjusted to $2,100,000 to be used as shown below. The grant does not require a local

CITY OF VIRGINIA BEACH
AGENDA ITEM
ITEMS: (1) An Ordinance Authorizing the City Manager to Execute an Agreement of
Purchase and Sale Between the Trust for Public Land and the City, for the
Acquisition of Property Known as Pleasure House Point
(2) An Ordinance to Establish CIP #4-518, "Pleasure House Point
Acquisition," and to Accept and Appropriate Various Grant Funds for this
Project
(3) A Resolution of the City of Virginia Beach, Virginia, Providing for the
Issuance and Sale of a General Obligation Bond in the Principal Amount Not
to Exceed $6,000,000 to the Virginia Water Facilities Revolving Fund for the
Pleasure House Point Project, and Providing for the Form, Details and
Payment Thereof
MEETING DATE: March 13, 2012
■ Background: Redus VA Housing, LLC, a Virginia limited liability company and
wholly owned subsidiary of Wells Fargo, N.A. ("Wells Fargo") is the owner of 122 acres,
more or less, commonly known as Pleasure House Point (the "Property").
The City has prioritized preserving the Property as a natural area for the benefit of the
public for more than ten years, as identified in the 2000 and 2008 Virginia Beach
Outdoors Plan. In furtherance of that goal, on August 22, 2011, The Trust for Public
Land, a non-profit California public benefit corporation ("TPL"), Chesapeake Bay
Foundation, a Maryland corporation, ("CBF"), and the City entered into a Memorandum
of Understanding (the "MOU") setting forth the parties' intention to work together for the
purpose of acquisition of the Property by the City and CBF, pursuant to an Ordinance
adopted by City Council on August 9, 2011 (ORD -3195C).
Under the terms of the MOU, TPL would purchase the Property from Wells Fargo.
Thereafter, the City would purchase the majority of the Property consisting of 112 acres
(the "City Parcels") from TPL, and CBF would acquire a 10 -acre portion of the Property
from TPL to construct an environmental education center (the "CBF Parcel").
TPL entered into a contract in December 2011 to purchase the Property from Wells
Fargo for $13,000,000. The City now desires to enter into a Purchase Agreement with
TPL to acquire the City Parcels from TPL for park use, open space, public natural area,
passive recreation, wetlands mitigation, water access, environmental education, and
oyster restoration and other public purposes.
The terms for the City's purchase are summarized in a Summary of Terms attached to
the Ordinance.
■ Considerations: The total purchase price for the City Parcels by the City is
$12,000,000 to be funded as follows: $4,000,000 to be funded through the Open Space
Program; $1,000,000 to be funded by a grant from U.S. Fish and Wildlife
Services/National Coastal Wetlands Program Grant; $500,000 to be funded by a grant
from the Virginia Land Conservation Foundation; $500,000 will be directly contributed
by TPL, representing a gift from Dominion Foundation; and $6,000,000 to be funded by
a low-interest (.25%) loan from the Virginia Clean Water Revolving Loan Program.
In addition to agreeing to purchase the City Parcels, the City will commit to purchase the
CBF Parcel in the event CBF is unable to get necessary zoning approvals for its
environmental center to be constructed on the CBF Parcel. The acquisition of this 10 -
acre parcel, if it occurs, will be funded by Open Space funding of $1,000,000.
In addition to the ordinance providing for the purchase of the property, this package
includes a budget ordinance and a resolution. The budget ordinance establishes
Capital Project #4-518, "Pleasure House Point Acquisition," in the Capital Improvement
Program, and it appropriates the grant from the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Services/National
Coastal Wetlands Project Grant and from the Virginia Land Conservation Foundation.
The resolution provides for the issuance and sale of a general obligation bond for the
Virginia Clean Water Revolving Loan Program. As noted above, this bond will be for
the principal amount of not to exceed $6,000,000, and it will have an annual rate of
.25%. The City's responsibilities related to this bond are further set forth in the
Financing Agreement, which is incorporated by reference and attached.
■ Public Information: Public Information will be provided through the normal
process of advertising the Council's agenda.

WATER FACILITIES REVOLVING FUND FOR THE PLEASURE
HOUSE POINT PROJECT, AND PROVIDING FOR THE FORM,
DETAILS AND PAYMENT THEREOF
The issuance of $65,500,000 of general obligation bonds of the City was authorized by an
ordinance adopted by the City Council of the City of Virginia Beach, Virginia (the "City
Council") on May 10, 2011, without being submitted to the qualified voters of the City, to
finance various public improvements, including schools, roadways, coastal projects, economic
and tourism projects, building and parks and recreation projects, up to $40,238,112 of which
bonds have been authorized to be issued and sold by resolution of the City Council.
The City has applied to the Virginia Water Facilities Revolving Fund (the "Revolving
Fund") through the Virginia Resources Authority ("VRA") for a loan in amount up to
$8,000,000 to purchase land for a project known within the City as the Pleasure House Point land
conservation project (the "Project"), which loan has been approved on behalf of the Revolving
Fund by VRA as part of the Lynnhaven Oyster Restoration and Estuary Protection Project.
VRA has required that the City evidence the loan through the issuance of a City's general
obligation bond to be issued in accordance with the terms of a Financing Agreement to be dated
as of a date specified by VRA, between the VRA and the City (the "Financing Agreement"), the
form of which has been presented to this meeting.
The City Council has determined it is in the City's best interest to issue and sell up to
$6,000,000 of the general obligation debt authorized on May 10, 2011 for the Project.
BE IT RESOLVED BY THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY:
1. Issuance of Bond. There shall be issued, pursuant to the Constitution and
statutes of the Commonwealth of Virginia, including the City Charter (Chapter 147 of the Acts
of the General Assembly of 1962, as amended) and the Public Finance Act of 1991 (Chapter 26,
Title 15.2, Code of Virginia of 1950, as amended), a general obligation bond of the City in the
maximum principal amount of $6,000,000 (the "Bond"). The proceeds of the Bond will be used
to pay or reimburse the costs of acquiring the Project and may also be used to pay certain costs
of issuance of the Bond.
2. Authorization of Financing Agreement. The form of the Financing Agreement
submitted to this meeting is hereby approved. The City Manager is authorized to execute the
Financing Agreement in substantially such form, with such completions, omissions, insertions
and changes not inconsistent with this Resolution as may be approved by such official, whose
approval shall be evidenced conclusively by the execution and delivery thereof. The issuance
and sale of the Bond to VRA, and application of the proceeds thereof, shall be upon the terms
4825-09244686.1
and conditions of the Financing Agreement, subject to paragraph 3 below. All capitalized terms
used but not otherwise defined herein shall have the same meaning as set forth in the Financing

if so determined by the City Manger. The City Council authorizes the issuance and sale of the
Bond on terms as shall be satisfactory to the City Manager; provided, however, that the Bond
shall (i) be in the principal amount equal to the principal amount of the loan from VRA not to
exceed the amount set forth in paragraph 1 above; (ii) mature no later than 11 years after the
date of initial delivery; (iii) bear interest at an annual rate not to exceed 0.25% (exclusive of late

preceding terms, the City Council further authorizes the City Manager to establish the
amortization schedule (including the principal installment dates and amounts) for the Bond in
such manner as the City Manager shall determine to be in the best interest of the City. The
actions of the City Manager in determining the final terms of the Bond shall be conclusive, and
no further action shall be necessary on the part of the City. The principal of and premium, if any,
and interest on the Bond shall be payable in lawful money of the United States of America.
4. Payment Provisions. The principal of and premium, if any, and interest on the
Bond shall be payable as set forth in the Bond and the Financing Agreement. As set forth in the

facsimile signature of the Mayor or Vice -Mayor, shall be countersigned by the manual or
facsimile signature of the City Clerk or Deputy Clerk, and the City's seal shall be affixed thereto
or a facsimile thereof printed thereon; provided, that if both of such signatures are facsimiles, the
Bond shall not be valid until it has been authenticated by the manual signature of the City
Treasurer, as Registrar, or an authorized officer or employee of any bank or trust company
serving as successor Registrar and the date of authentication noted thereon.
6. Bond Form. The Bond shall be in substantially the form attached to this
Resolution as Exhibit A, with such completions, omissions, insertions and changes not
inconsistent with this Resolution as may be approved by the officers signing the Bond, whose
approval shall be evidenced conclusively by the execution and delivery of the Bond.
7. Pledge of Full Faith and Credit. The full faith and credit of the City are hereby
irrevocably pledged for the payment of principal of and premium, if any, and interest on the
Bond. Unless other funds are lawfully available and appropriated for timely payment of the
Bond, the City Council shall levy and collect an annual ad valorem tax, over and above all other
taxes authorized or limited by law and without limitation as to rate or amount, on all locally
taxable property in the City sufficient to pay when due the principal of and premium, if any, and
interest on the Bond.

4825-0924-4686.1
8. Registration, Transfer and Owners of Bond. The City Treasurer is
appointed paying agent and registrar for the Bond (the "Registrar"). The City may appoint a
qualified bank or trust company as successor paying agent and registrar of the Bond. The
Registrar shall maintain registration books for the registration and registration of transfers of the
Bond. Upon presentation and surrender of any Bond at the office of the Registrar, or at its
designated corporate trust office if the Registrar is a bank or trust company, together with an
assignment duly executed by the registered owner or his duly authorized attorney or legal
representative in such form as shall be satisfactory to the Registrar, the City shall execute, and
the Registrar shall authenticate, if required by Section 5, and shall deliver in exchange, a new
Bond or Bond having an equal aggregate principal amount, in authorized denominations, of the
same form and maturity, bearing interest at the same rate and registered in the name as requested
by the then registered owner thereof or its duly authorized attorney or legal representative. Any
such transfer or exchange shall be at the expense of the City, except that the Registrar may
charge the person requesting such transfer or exchange the amount of any tax or other
governmental charge required to be paid with respect thereto.
The Registrar shall treat the registered owner as the person or entity exclusively entitled
to payment of principal, premium, if any, and interest and the exercise of all other rights and
powers of the owner, except that interest payments shall be made to the person or entity shown
as owner on the registration books as of the Record Date set forth in the Bond.
9. Mutilated, Lost or Destroyed Bond. If the Bond has been mutilated, lost or
destroyed, the City shall execute and deliver a new Bond of like date and tenor in exchange and
substitution for, and upon cancellation of, such mutilated Bond or in lieu of and in substitution
for such lost or destroyed Bond; provided, however, that the City shall so execute and deliver
only if the registered owner has paid the reasonable expenses and charges of the City in
connection therewith and, in the case of a lost or destroyed Bond, (a) has filed with the City
evidence satisfactory to the City that such Bond was lost or destroyed and (b) has furnished to
the City satisfactory indemnity.
10. Preparation and Delivery of Bond. The officers of the City are authorized and
directed to take all proper steps to have the Bond prepared and executed in accordance with their
terms and to deliver them to VRA as the purchaser thereof upon receipt of the loan proceeds
from VRA as set forth in the Financing Agreement.
11. Program Compliance Documentation. Such officers of the City as may be
requested are authorized and directed to execute and deliver any documentation necessary to
establish that the proceeds of the Bond are intended to be used in compliance with the
requirements of VRA and the Revolving Fund.
12. Limitation on Private Use. The City covenants that it shall not permit the
proceeds of the Bond or the facilities financed with the proceeds of the Bond to be used in any
manner that would result in (a) 5% or more of such proceeds or the facilities financed with such
proceeds being used in a trade or business carried on by any person other than a governmental
unit, as provided in Section 141(b) of the Code, (b) 5% or more of such proceeds or the facilities
financed with such proceeds being used with respect to any output facility (other than a facility
for the furnishing of water), (within the meaning of Section 141(b)(4) of the Code), or (c) 5% or
3
4825-0924-4686.1
more of such proceeds being used directly or indirectly to make or finance loans to any persons
other than a governmental unit, as provided in Section 141(c) of the Code; provided, however,
that if the City receives an opinion of nationally recognized bond counsel that any such
covenants need not be complied with to prevent the interest on tax-exempt governmental
obligations from being includable in the gross income for federal income tax purposes of the
registered owners thereof under existing law, the City need not comply with such covenants.
13. Investment Authorization. The City Council hereby authorizes the Director of
Finance to direct the City Treasurer to utilize the State Non -Arbitrage Program of the
Commonwealth of Virginia ("SNAP") in connection with the investment of the proceeds of the
Bond, if the City Manager and the Director of Finance determine that the utilization of SNAP is
in the best interest of the City. The City Council acknowledges that the Treasury Board of the
Commonwealth of Virginia is not, and shall not be, in any way liable to the City in connection
with SNAP, except as otherwise provided in the SNAP Contract.
14. Other Actions. All other actions of officials of the City in conformity with the
purposes and intent of this Resolution and in furtherance of the issuance and sale of the Bond are
ratified, approved and confirmed. The officials of the City are authorized and directed to execute
and deliver all certificates and other instruments considered necessary or desirable in connection
with the issuance, sale and delivery of the Bond pursuant to this Resolution and the Financing
Agreement.
15. Repeal of Conflicting Resolutions. All resolutions or parts of resolutions in
conflict herewith are repealed.
16. Effective Date. This Resolution shall take effect immediately.

Section is in force and effect.
Section 9.2. Requirements of Policies. All insurance required by Section 9.1 shall be
maintained with generally recognized responsible insurance companies selected by the Borrower
and reasonably acceptable to the Authority. Such insurance may be written with deductible
amounts comparable to those on similar policies carried by public bodies similar in size and

business in Virginia or placed under the requirements of the Virginia Surplus Lines Insurance
Law, Article 5, Chapter 7. 1, Title 38.1, Code of Virginia of 1950, as amended, or any successor
statute, the Borrower shall provide evidence reasonably satisfactory to the Authority that such
insurance is enforceable under Virginia law.
In lieu of obtaining any of the policies of insurance required by Section 9. 1, the Borrower
may adopt alternative risk management programs which it determines to be reasonable,
-10-
including, without limitation, to self -insure in whole or in part, individually or in connection with
other units of local government or other institutions, to participate in programs of captive
insurance companies, to participate with other units of local government or other institutions in
mutual or other cooperative insurance or other risk management programs, to participate in State
or Federal insurance programs, to take advantage of State or Federal laws now or hereafter in
existing limiting liability, or to establish or participate in other alternative risk management
programs, all as may be reasonable and appropriate risk management by the Borrower and that
provide comparable coverages required by such sections. In addition, any insurance coverage
pursuant to this Article may be pursuant to a program whereby the Borrower self -insures against
certain losses up to a stated loss amount, and retains excess coverage from an insurer meeting the
requirements of this Article.
Any self-insurance plan or alternative risk management program maintained by the
Borrower with respect to the Project will be a Qualified Self -Insurance Plan. A "Qualified Self -
Insurance Plan" means any plan or program of self-insurance regarding which the Borrower shall
have received an opinion of an Insurance Consultant that the Borrower has established an
adequate, actuarially sound program for the funding of reserves for such self-insurance. The
Borrower agrees to comply with such program unless a change therein is recommended by the
Insurance Consultant. The Borrower agrees to cause the Insurance Consultant to review any
Qualified Self -Insurance Plan at least annually and to make written recommendations as to what
funding levels are adequate to protect against the risks covered by the plan. The Borrower
agrees to follow such recommendations.
Section 9.3. Notice of Damage, Destruction or Condemnation_. In case of (i) any

Authority describing generally the nature and extent of such damage, destruction, taking, loss,
proceedings or negotiations.

damaged by fire or other casualty, and the Borrower shall not have exercised its option, if such
option is available, to prepay the obligations under this Agreement pursuant to Section 7. 1, the
Borrower shall restore promptly the property damaged or destroyed to substantially the same
condition as before such damage or destruction, with such alterations and additions as the
Borrower may determine and which will not impair the capacity or character of the Project for
the purpose for which it then is being used or is intended to be used. The Borrower may apply so
much as may be necessary of the Net Proceeds received on account of any such damage or
destruction to payment of the cost of such restoration, either on completion or as the work
progresses. If such Net Proceeds are not sufficient to pay in full the cost of such restoration, the
Borrower shall pay so much of the cost as may be in excess of such Net Proceeds.
Section 9.5. Condemnation and Loss of Title. If title to or the temporary use of all or
any part of the Project shall be taken under the exercise of the power of eminent domain or lost
because of failure of title, and the Borrower shall not have exercised its option, if such option is
-11-
available, to prepay the obligations under this Agreement pursuant to Section 7. 1, the Borrower
shall cause the Net Proceeds from any such condemnation award or from title insurance to be
applied to the restoration of the Project to substantially its condition before the exercise of such
power of eminent domain or failure of title. If such Net Proceeds are not sufficient to pay in full
the cost of such restoration, the Borrower shall pay so much of the cost as may be in excess of
such Net Proceeds.

Modification of Conditional Use Permit, 5827 Burton Station Road (GPIN
1458884739). BAYSIDE DISTRICT.
MEETING DATE: March 13, 2012
■ Background:
The Conditional Use Permit allowing an Independent Living Senior Housing Facility was
approved by the City Council on January 26, 2010. The Conditional Use Permit has
seven conditions. Condition 6 requires that at least one member of the family living in
each unit be age 62 or older. The applicant desires to allow disabled individuals to also
live at the housing facility; thus, Condition 6 is requested for modification such that at
least one member of the family either be disabled or 62 years or older.
No modifications to the building elevation or site plan are proposed.
■ Considerations:
The requested modification is consistent with the Comprehensive Plan's
recommendations for this area and is consistent with the Northampton/Burton Station
SGA Plan. Additionally, this modification is not expected to have an impact on City
services and the parking requirement for an independent living facility is the same as the
parking requirement for housing for disabled individuals; therefore, there are no changes
to the required parking needs for this site.
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 (Condition 6 of the January 26, 2010 Conditional Use Permit is
modified as indicated below by the italic text):
1. The site shall be developed substantially in accordance with the submitted site plan
entitled, "Tranquility at The Lakes, Seniors Unlimited Lifestyles, Inc.; Phase One",
prepared by Pentecost Deal & Associates. Said plan is on file in the City of Virginia
Beach Planning Department.
2. The proposed buildings shall be constructed substantially in accordance with the
submitted elevation entitled "Tranquility at The Lakes, Senior's Unlimited Lifestyles,
Inc.", Prepared by Pentecost Deal & Associates. _

CULTURAL FEATURES: located throughout the site.
COMPREHENSIVE PLAN: The Comprehensive Plan designates this area of the subject site as the Burton
Station Village, located within the Northampton/Burton Station Strategic Growth Area (SGA) #1. The boundary
for the Northampton/Burton Station SGA is generally the area adjacent to the eastern side of Norfolk
International Airport north to Shore Drive, the Diamond Springs Road area, the area south of Bayside Road,
and along the Northampton Blvd corridor. The area is predominantly industrial, but also has significant tracts
devoted to residential and commercial uses. The conceptual plan for the Burton Station Village depicts single-
family dwellings, a corner shop, a community center, a memorial park, and a senior housing center.
The Housing and Neighborhoods component of the Comprehensive Plan provides the following goals
applicable to this request:
• Address future housing demand through provision of an adequate supply of safe, decent, attractive
and diverse housing, with a range of values, including owner -occupied and rental units, for the
purpose of accommodating the present and future needs of all Virginia Beach residents; and
• Implementing ways to assist those requiring special housing.
Policies associated with these goals are as follows:
• Areas planned for housing should be attractive and affordable to a range of income groups, ages,
cultures and household types; and
• Allow and encourage the type and location of housing for seniors designed to meet their special needs
and services including, but not limited to, independent living, assisted living and nursing facilities (pp.
8-7 to 8-9).
CITY SERVICES
There are no expected impacts to City services as a result of the proposed modification.
EVALUATION AND RECOMMENDATION
The requested modification is consistent with the Comprehensive Plan's recommendations for this area
and is consistent with the Northampton/Burton Station SGA Plan. Additionally, this modification is not
expected to have an impact on City services and the parking requirement for an independent living facility
SENIOR'S UNLIMITED LIFESTYLES, 1K.,,

is the same as the parking requirement for housing for disabled individuals; therefore, there are no
changes to the required parking needs for this site.
In sum, staff concludes the request is acceptable. Affordable housing for seniors and disabled individuals

CITY OF VIRGINIA BEACH
AGENDA ITEM
ITEM: MID ATLANTIC AUTO/DZR, LLC, Conditional Use Permit, bulk storage/auto
repair/auto truck rental, 184 South Plaza Trail (GPIN 1487826690). BEACH
DISTRICT.
MEETING DATE: March 13, 2012
■ Background:
The applicant requests a Conditional Use Permit to allow motor vehicle rentals for up to
20 trucks. All rental trucks will be stored within a truck storage area located on east side
of the property and enclosed with an eight -foot tall solid fence. The applicant will also
repair the rental trucks onsite and will also provide motor vehicle repair service to the
surrounding community. Hours of operation for the motor vehicle repair facility are the
same as the hours of operation of the truck rental business. Approximately four to five
employees per shift are anticipated to be onsite at any one given time.
The site consists of a 2,828 square foot one-story building with a 1,026 square foot
canopy. An antenna, approximately 100 -foot tall, is located east of the building (the
antenna is owned by a different property owner and cannot be removed at this time).
Three sheds are located along the northern property line and a one-story garage is
positioned east of the building.
■ Considerations:
The applicant proposes the following improvements to the site:
• A minimum of 51 shrubs and 10 trees along Continental Street and South Plaza
Trail will be planted;
• An eight -foot tall solid fence will be installed along the perimeter of the truck
storage yard;
• The southernmost access point on South Plaza Trail will be removed and
replaced with sidewalk, landscaping, and curb and gutter;
• Installation of five planters along the south side of the building;
• Removal of the existing free-standing pole sign and installation of a five-foot tall
monument style sign in its place;
• Reconfiguration of the parking area (new striping and pavement); and
• Painting of the building an neutral earth tone color.
The site currently is a vacant taxi garage and automobile repair facility. The applicant's
proposed use is not consistent with the recommendations of the Comprehensive Plan as
it pertains to the South Plaza Trail Neighborhood Development Initiative Area, which is
discussed in the Rosemont Strategic Growth Area Master Plan. The Plan notes that "this
area is [intended] for a new residential neighborhood consisting of townhouses
developed along South Plaza Trail. The plan proposes a transition to quiet residential
uses with small neighborhood parks," (p. 46).
Mid -Atlantic Auto
Page 2 of 4
Staff's evaluation of the Conditional Use Permit, however, determined that the
applicant's proposed use is so similar to the use previously located on the site and the
proposed site and building improvements so minor, that the use can be viewed as an
interim one. Eventually, as the Rosemont SGA develops consistent with the
recommendations of the Master Plan, the value of the subject site will increase such that
the site will develop with uses as described in the previous paragraph.
In sum, staff finds that the changes will result in an improvement to the site. The
applicant worked closely with the adjacent neighborhood to assure the residents that the
business will be an asset to the community and that the improvements will change a
negative into a positive for the area.
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:
The site shall be developed in substantial conformance to the marked -up survey
entitled "Preliminary Concept of 184 South Plaza Trail" dated August 23, 2011, and

planting bed of at least five feet in width. A landscape plan shall be submitted for
review and approval to the Planning Department/Development Services Center
Division.
3. No more than a total of twenty motor vehicles/trailers for rent shall be allowed on the

shall be a monument type sign no taller than six feet in height. No electronic display
signs shall be permitted and the free-standing monument style sign shall be in
substantial conformance with the submitted sign elevation entitled, "Mid Atlantic" and

This application, when submitted, was located in the Rose Hall Election District. Since that time, new City Council Election Districts have
been approved by the U.S. Department of Justice. The site of this application is now located in the Beach District due to the boundary
changes.
APPLICATION HISTORY: At the January 11, 2012 Planning Commission Hearing, this item was deferred to
provide the applicant an opportunity to meet with the civic league in the surrounding area, which the applicant
has done. Staff has been informed by the applicant the applicant's presentation of the proposed use was
favorably received by the civic league; however, staff has also been informed by those in attendance at the
meeting that the favorable result was not resounding.
SUMMARY OF REQUEST
The applicant requests a Conditional Use Permit to allow motor vehicle rentals for up to 20 trucks. All
rental trucks will be stored within a truck storage area located on east side of the property and enclosed
with an eight -foot tall solid fence. Hours of operation for the truck rental business are Monday through
Friday from 9:00 a.m. to 6:00 p.m. and Saturday from 9:00 a.m. to 2:00 p.m.
The applicant will also repair the rental trucks onsite and provide motor vehicle repair service to the
surrounding community. Hours of operation for the repair facility are the same as the hours of operation
of the truck rental business. Approximately four to five employees per shift are anticipated to be onsite at
any one given time.

The site consists of a 2,828 square foot one-story building with a 1,026 square foot canopy. An antenna,
approximately 100 -foot tall, is located east of the building. Three sheds are located along the northern
property line and a one-story garage is positioned east of the building. Eleven parking spaces are
currently provided south and west of the building. A six-foot tall chain-link fence encloses the site's rear
yard.
The applicant proposes the following improvements to the site:
• The existing 1,026 square foot canopy and 100 -foot tall antenna will be removed from the site
when the antenna ceases to be in use for a period of longer than one year;
• A minimum of 51 shrubs and 10 trees along Continental Street and South Plaza Trail will be
added.
• An eight -foot tall solid fence will be added to the perimeter of the truck storage yard in order to
screen the trucks from view of the streets;
• The southernmost access point along South Plaza Trail will be removed and replaced with
sidewalk, landscaping, and curb and gutter;
• Five planters are proposed along the south side of the building;
• The existing pole sign will be removed and replaced with a five-foot tall monument style sign;
• The parking lot will be re -striped to accommodate traffic and aesthetic concerns; and
• The building will be painted an earth tone color.

NATURAL RESOURCE AND There are no known natural resources or cultural features associated
CULTURAL FEATURES: with this site.
COMPREHENSIVE PLAN: The Comprehensive Plan designates this site as being in the Urban Area,
Strategic Growth Area (SGA) 5, Rosemont. The Rosemont SGA Master Plan, adopted September 2011 is
one of eight strategic growth areas within the city identified to provide opportunities for continued physical and
economic growth; protect established neighborhoods from incompatible development; maximize infrastructure
efficiency and create unique and exciting urban destinations. The vision for the Rosemont SGA is a transit -
oriented residential village with complementary mix -use and office (p. 2-2).
The Rosemont SGA Master Plan identifies this site as being within the South Plaza Trail Neighborhood
Development Initiative area. The plan for this area is for a new residential neighborhood consisting of
townhouses developed along South Plaza Trail. The plan proposes a transition to quiet residential uses with
small neighborhood parks (p. 46).

MASTER TRANSPORTATION PLAN (MTP) /CAPITAL IMPROVEMENT PROGRAM (CIP): South Plaza
Trail is a suburban minor arterial that changes its typical section at Continental street. North of the intersection
it has four lanes; south of the intersection it has two. The generalized capacities reported below are for two
lanes.
The Master Transportation Plan Major Street Network Ultimate Rights -of -Way lists the ultimate build -out for
South Plaza Trail as a four lane collector in an 80' right-of-way. There are no CIP projects in the area.

2011 Average Daily Trips
PUBLIC WORKS/TRAFFIC ENGINEERING: The proposed conditional uses are equivalent for trip generation
purposes to the prior land use and no change to trip generation is expected.
Because the southern existing entrance on South Plaza Trail creates a safety hazard; it must be removed as
shown on the applicant's Preliminary Concept. However, the remaining driveway along South Plaza Trail will
need to be modified with a geometric layout that satisfies Public Works standards. Also, the two parking
spaces closest to the entrance along the northern edge of the parking lot should be removed as vehicles
maneuvering into and out of them would be in conflict with traffic entering and exiting the site.
WATER: This site must connect to City water. There is a 10 -inch City water line in South Plaza Trail.
SEWER: This site must connect to City sanitary sewer. Sanitary sewer and pump station analysis for Pump
Station #504 is required to determine if future flows can be accommodated.
EVALUATION AND RECOMMENDATION
The site currently is a vacant taxi garage and automobile repair facility. Although the proposed use is not
consistent with the Comprehensive Plan's land use policies for the South Plaza Trail Neighborhood
Development Initiative area within the Rosemont Strategic Growth Area, the proposed conditional use
permit for bulk storage, auto repair and truck rental is similar to the preceding taxi car garage and repair
facility. Allowing an automotive repair shop and truck rental business that is similar to the previous use
should not adversely affect the community and will restore the site to a use that serves the surrounding
area.
To improve the site, the applicant proposes to remove existing safety hazards as identified by the City's
Public Works/Traffic Engineering Division. The southern entrance on South Plaza Trail will be removed
MID -ATLANTIC AUTO
Agenda Item 13
Page 3
and replaced with sidewalk, landscaping, and curb and gutter. The remaining driveway along South
Plaza Trail will also be modified with a geometric layout that satisfies Public Works standards. Two
parking spaces closest to the entrance along the northern edge of the parking lot will be removed to
reduce the current interference with traffic entering and exiting the site. Staff supports these
modifications to improve the safety of the site.
The applicant has also agreed to improve the site's appearance. The existing six-foot chain-link fence
does not adequately screen the gravel yard from view of the public rights-of-way, thus the applicant has
proposed to install a solid eight -foot tall fence with additional landscaping to minimize the view of the
gravel yard and parking areas from the public rights-of-way. The existing pole sign, that is over 12 feet
tall, will be replaced with a five-foot tall, monument -style sign that is in keeping with the adjacent
residential community. Foundation landscaping is proposed along the south side of the automotive repair
building. The existing building and 100 -foot tall antenna will be removed if the antenna ceases to be in
use for a period of more than a year.
Overall, staff finds that the changes will result in an improvement to the site, and recommends approval of
this request as conditioned below.
CONDITIONS
1. The site shall be developed in substantial conformance to the marked -up survey entitled "Preliminary
Concept of 184 South Plaza Trail" dated August 23, 2011, and last revised December 15, 2011, with
the exception that (a) no fencing shall be located within the front yard and side yard adjacent to the
streets and (2) the northwestern entrance driveway on South Plaza Trail shall be modified with a
geometric layout that meets Public Works Standards.
The site shall be landscaped in substantial conformance to the survey referenced in Condition 1, with
the exception that the landscaping adjacent to the proposed eight -foot tall fence along Continental

AGENDA ITEM
ITEM: CITY OF VIRGINIA BEACH — ORDINANCE TO AMEND SECTION 902(b)(7) —
An Ordinance to Amend Section 902(b)(7) of the City Zoning Ordinance pertaining
to the Maximum Density of Multifamily Dwellings.
MEETING DATE: March 13, 2012
■ Background:
This amendment clarifies that the method for determining density for multifamily
dwellings is the same in the B -4C Central Business Mixed Use District and the B -
4K Historic Kempsville Area Mixed Use District.
For the purpose of calculating maximum density, Section 902(b)(7) of the City
Zoning Ordinance currently provides the following:
The maximum allowable density for the B -4C and B -4K Districts is listed in the
two columns farthest to the right. The `Dimensional Description,' however, in the
left column mentions only the B -4C District, which has resulted in confusion.
Discussion between staff and the City Attorney's Office resulted in the conclusion
that in 2006, when the amendments to the Zoning Ordinance were adopted
establishing the B -4K District, the maximum density was provided (right column
of 902(b)(7), but an omission resulted in "B -4K" not being added to the first
sentence of the left column.
■ Considerations:
The mixed-use nature of the B -4K District, as well as the other zoning districts
that allow a mixture of uses (B -4C, RT -2, RT -3, and B -3A), necessitates that the
method for calculating the maximum density consider the role of the non-
B -3A
B -4C
B -4K
Maximum density per acre of multifamily
dwellings in the B -4C District. Density shall
N/A

be determined based on the area of the
entire zoning lot, even if such lot is partially
occupied by other principal uses or
conditional uses. For every 10,000 square
feet of commercial space in a given
development project, an additional dwelling
unit per acre beyond that allowed by the
maximum density may be built.
The maximum allowable density for the B -4C and B -4K Districts is listed in the
two columns farthest to the right. The `Dimensional Description,' however, in the
left column mentions only the B -4C District, which has resulted in confusion.
Discussion between staff and the City Attorney's Office resulted in the conclusion
that in 2006, when the amendments to the Zoning Ordinance were adopted
establishing the B -4K District, the maximum density was provided (right column
of 902(b)(7), but an omission resulted in "B -4K" not being added to the first
sentence of the left column.
■ Considerations:
The mixed-use nature of the B -4K District, as well as the other zoning districts
that allow a mixture of uses (B -4C, RT -2, RT -3, and B -3A), necessitates that the
method for calculating the maximum density consider the role of the non-
City of Virginia Beach/CZO Amendment
Page 2 of 2
residential part of the development in the calculation. All of the zoning districts
mentioned above, except the B -3A, calculate maximum residential density using
the entire zoning lot, regardless of whether there are other non-residential uses
located on the lot. The B -3A District for the Town Center, however, determines
residential density with a slightly different method, allowing a specific number of
dwelling units for a specific square feet of commercial floor area that is provided.
The rationale for the different method in the B -3A is to ensure commercial use
remains the prominent land use in Town Center.
The proposed amendment, therefore, corrects the omission described above,
adding "B -4K" to the first sentence of the left column. The correction is consistent
with the original intent of the Zoning Ordinance amendments establishing the 13-
4K Historic Kempsville Area Mixed Use District and is also consistent with the
method of determining maximum residential density in other zoning districts
where mixed-use is permitted.
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.

CITY OF VIRGINIA BEACH
AMENDMENT TO SEC. 902 OF CZO
REQUEST:
An Ordinance to amend Section 902(b)(7) of the City Zoning Ordinance pertaining to maximum density of
multifamily dwellings.
SUMMARY OF AMENDMENT
This amendment clarifies that the method for determining
density for multifamily dwellings is the same in the B4C Central Business Mixed Use District and the B -4K
Historic Kempsville Area Mixed Use District. For the purpose of calculating maximum density, Section
902(b)(7) of the City Zoning Ordinance currently provides the following:
The section, however, while providing the maximum allowable density for the B -4C and B -4K Districts, the
'Dimensional Description' in the left column mentions only the B -4C District. Discussion between staff and
the City Attorney's Office resulted in the conclusion that when the amendments to the Zoning Ordinance
were adopted for the establishment of the B -4K District, the maximum density was provided (right column
of 902(b)(7), but "B -4K" was not added to the first sentence of the left column.
The proposed amendment, therefore, adds "B -4K" to the first sentence of the left column, which clarifies
the original intent of the Zoning Ordinance amendments establishing the B -4K Historic Kempsville Area
Mixed Use District.
RECOMMENDATION
Staff recommends approval of the amendment, as it is a clarification of
the original intent, and is thus, a 'housekeeping' amendment.
