CITY OF VIRGINIA BEACH
AGENDA ITEM
ITEM: A Resolution Requesting That the General Assembly and Governor Accept and
Implement the Full Expansion of Medicaid as Provided by the Affordable Care
Act
MEETING DATE: December 11, 2012
■ Background: The Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act ("Affordable Care
Act") is a 2010 federal law which, among other things, expands the availability of health
care through an expansion of Medicaid. State legislators have the option of whether to
authorize Medicaid expansion in their states. The expansion establishes a new income
eligibility criterion of 133% of the federal poverty level. The Act provides 100% federal
funding for the expansion in the first three years, after which time the federal funding will
be reduced to no less than 90% of the cost.
■ Considerations: 47,775 Virginia Beach residents currently receive Medicaid
benefits, but 51,730 additional adult City residents who are under the age of 65 remain
uninsured. An estimated additional 14,650 Virginia Beach residents will be eligible for
Medicaid expansion under the federal law, including a significant number of single
persons and couples with incomes between $15,415 and $20,879, as well as certain
families (depending on family size) with incomes up to $53,668. A significant number of
uninsured Virginia Beach residents who suffer from mental health or substance abuse
disorders will be eligible for health care coverage through Medicaid expansion. The
expansion of Medicaid will increase local employment in medical services and other
supportive health care industries (especially technology).
The resolution requests that the Governor and the General Assembly take the
steps necessary to accept and implement in the Commonwealth of Virginia the full
Medicaid expansion as provided by the Affordable Care Act.
■ Public Information: Public information will be provided through the normal
Council agenda process.
■ Attachments: Resolution

1 A RESOLUTION REQUESTING THAT THE GENERAL
2 ASSEMBLY AND GOVERNOR ACCEPT AND IMPLEMENT
3 THE FULL EXPANSION OF MEDICAID AS PROVIDED BY
4 THE AFFORDABLE CARE ACT
5
6 WHEREAS, the Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act ("Affordable Care
7 Act") is a 2010 federal law which, among other things, expands the availability of health
8 care through an expansion of Medicaid;
9
10 WHEREAS, as a result of the United States Supreme Court's decision in a case
11 in which it upheld the constitutionality of the Affordable Care Act, states now have the
12 option to chose whether to accept and implement the Act's Medicaid expansion;
13
14 WHEREAS, the Affordable Care Act's Medicaid expansion establishes a new
15 income eligibility criterion of 133% of the federal poverty level and provides 100%
16 federal funding for the expansion in the first three years, after which time the federal
17 funding will be reduced to no less than 90% of the cost;
18
19 WHEREAS, the projected cost to Virginia is dwarfed by the billions of federal
20 dollars which will flow into the state, and Medicaid expansion will not only provide
21 citizens with greater access to health care but will also support the state's health care
22 industry, employment, and Virginia's overall economy;
23
24 WHEREAS, although 47,775 Virginia Beach residents currently receive Medicaid
25 benefits, 51,730 additional adult City residents who are under the age of 65 remain
26 uninsured;
27
28 WHEREAS, an estimated additional 14,650 Virginia Beach residents will be
29 eligible for Medicaid expansion under the federal law, including a significant number of
30 single persons and couples with incomes between $15,415 and $20,879, as well as
31 certain families (depending on family size) with incomes up to $53,668;
32
33 WHEREAS, a significant number of uninsured Virginia Beach residents who
34 suffer from mental health or substance abuse disorders will be eligible for health care
35 coverage through Medicaid expansion; and

of Housing and Community Development to Retain the Current Boundaries of
the Hampton Roads Planning District Commission
MEETING DATE: December 11, 2012
■ Background: Virginia Beach is a member of the Hampton Roads Planning
District Commission ("HRPDC"). As required by the state Regional Cooperation Act,
the Virginia Department of Housing and Community Development ("DHCD") is
conducting a periodic review of the boundaries of the state's twenty-one planning
districts. The DHCD considers the following seven criteria: (1) recognition of
communities of interest among the governmental subdivisions; (2) recognition of
common economic and market interests; (3) ease of communications and commissioner
travel time; (4) federal metropolitan statistical area boundaries; (5) a population base
adequate to ensure financial viability; (6) geographic factors and natural boundaries;
and (7) the wishes of the governmental subdivisions within or surrounding the planning
district, as expressed by a resolution of the governing body.
■ Considerations: In response to the seventh criterion, HRPDC Executive
Director Dwight Farmer has asked the Hampton Roads Chief Administrative Officers to
present to their respective governing bodies a resolution supporting the current
boundaries of the HRPDC. The deadline for written comments, including resolutions of
governing bodies, is December 19, 2012.

lapsed and reverted to the City's General Fund. In the past, City Council has re -
appropriated such funds to the School System. Under City Council policy, this funding
can only be used for one-time expenses rather than on-going obligations.
Additionally, in 2003 at the request of the School Board, the City Council approved an
ordinance, which established in the City's accounting structure the "Special Revenue
Fund — School Reserve" or the 098 Fund. The City Council approval was accompanied
by the School Board's Policy 3-28 (the "Policy"). The Policy provides the purpose of the
fund is to allow the School Board to be "in a better position to respond to (i) unexpected
shortfalls in state or federal funding, (ii) emergency expenditures of a nonrecurring
nature that would not have been anticipated at the time of preparation and adoption of
the School Operating Budget, or (iii) other fiscal emergencies." The Policy provides a
limitation of "up to two (2) percent of the previous year's School Operating Budget may
be placed into this Fund."
As of June 30th 2012, the 098 Fund had an un -audited balance of $11,616,865. The FY
2012-13 Schools Budget appropriated $11,000,000 from the 098 Fund, leaving a
balance of $616,685.
■ Considerations: At its November 20th meeting, the School Board adopted a
resolution requesting that the $15,954,726 be re -appropriated for the following:
$500,000 to the School Athletic Special Revenue Fund to purchase athletic
equipment;
$1,454,726 to the School Operating Fund, Instruction Classification to support
elementary instructional and improvement initiatives; and
$14,000,000 to the Special Revenue Fund — School Reserve for: (1) the
anticipated operating budget shortfall in FY 2013-14, and; (2) emergency
expenditures of a non-recurring nature.
As noted above, the School's Policy (3-28) limits the amount of the reserve to 2% of the
previous year's Schools Operating Budget, which equates to $14.1 million. With the
requested $14 million, the balance of the 098 Fund would be $14.6 million, which
exceeds the 2%. However, the School Board requests this use of funds to prepare for
the next fiscal year's projected shortfall.
■ Public Information: Information will be disseminated to the public through the
normal Council agenda process.

AGENDA ITEM
ITEM: BRANDON AND KIMBERLY SCOTT, Subdivision Variance, 1812 S.
Woodside Lane (GPIN 1499341275). LYNNHAVEN DISTRICT.
MEETING DATE: December 11, 2012
■ Background:
It is the intent of the applicants to legally establish an existing lot which was
created by deed without the benefit of a subdivision plat.
During a recent title search conducted for the conveyance of the subject site to
the applicants, it was determined that this lot had not been created by a
subdivision plat, as required. It is the intent of the applicants to establish this
parcel by a subdivision plat. However, this site is not located on a public street
as required by the current Subdivision Regulations; thus, a variance to the
Subdivision Ordinance is required. In addition, this parcel does not meet the
current minimum lot area requirement of 24,000 square feet outside water,
marsh, and wetlands as required by the Zoning Ordinance, and thus, a variance
is required.
■ Considerations:
The subject site was created by deed in 1961. The site totals 48,980.90 square
feet and contains an existing single-family dwelling, which was constructed in
1963. The site also contains an existing pier. This parcel was initially accessed
via a 30 -foot private right-of-way. In 1966, a 50 -foot private ingress/egress
easement, meeting City right-of-way dimensional requirements, was establishing
the 30 -foot private right-of-way. The intention of creating a width of 50 feet when
the ingress/egress easement was established was to provide for a future right-of-
way dedication to the City.

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 9-0, to recommend approval of this request to the
City Council with the following conditions:
The site shall be developed substantially in accordance with the submitted
subdivision plan entitled "Subdivision of Site 15, Part of Lot 13, Survey of
Property of Shepherd J. Woodhouse," dated May 29, 2012, prepared by
WPL. Said plan has been exhibited to the Virginia Beach Planning
Commission and City Council and is on file in the Planning Department.

SUMMARY OF REQUEST
It is the intent of the applicants to legally establish an existing lot which was created by deed without the
benefit of a subdivision plat.
Existing Lot: The subject site was created by deed in 1961. The site totals 48,980.90 square feet and
contains an existing single-family dwelling, which was constructed in 1963. The site also contains an
existing pier. This parcel was initially accessed via a 30 -foot private right-of-way. In 1966, a 50 -foot
private ingress/egress easement, meeting City right-of-way dimensional requirements, was established
over the 30 -foot private right-of-way. It appears that the intent of the ingress/egress easement was for a
future right-of-way dedication to the City. Although a right-of-way dedication has not occurred, the City
has maintained this private roadway for many years as well as provided trash collection service. A
variable -width public utility easement was dedicated to the City over the private right-of-way in 1988.
Fourteen additional lots containing single-family homes are also located on this private roadway.
Proposed Lot: During a recent title search conducted for the conveyance of the subject site to the
applicants, it was determined that this lot had not been created by a subdivision plat, as required. It is the
intent of the applicants to establish this parcel by a subdivision plat. However, this site is not located on a
public street as required by the current Subdivision Regulations; thus, a variance to the Subdivision
Ordinance is required. In addition, this parcel does not meet the current minimum lot area requirement of
24,000 square feet outside water, marsh, and wetlands as required by the Zoning Ordinance, and thus, a
BRANDON AND KIMBERLY SCOTT

variance is required. The site does meet the current overall lot area requirement. If this parcel was
located on a public right-of-way, it would also have to meet the minimum lot width requirement. The
current minimum lot width requirement is 125 -feet and the site has a lot width of only 90.5 feet on the
ingress/egress easement.
No improvements to the site are proposed at this time.

NATURAL RESOURCE AND The site is located within the Resource Protection Area of the

COMPREHENSIVE PLAN: The Comprehensive Plan designates this area of the City as Suburban Area and
contains policies to guide and protect the future physical character of this area. The overriding objective of
these policies is to protect the predominantly suburban character that is defined, in large measure, by the
stable neighborhoods of our community. The Comprehensive Plan recognizes the primacy of preserving and
protecting the overall character, economic value and aesthetic quality of the stable neighborhoods in the
Suburban Area. This request to establish a developed single-family lot is consistent with the Comprehensive
Plan's land use policies for the Suburban Area.
IMPACT ON CITY SERVICES
WATER/ SEWER: This site is connected to City water and sewer.
BRANDON AND KIMBtRLY SC-bTT
Agenda Item 6

Section 9.3 of the Subdivision Ordinance states:
No variance shall be authorized by the Council unless it finds that:
A. Strict application of the ordinance would produce undue hardship.
B. The authorization of the variance will not be of substantial detriment to adjacent property,
and the character of the neighborhood will not be adversely affected.
C. The problem involved is not of so general or recurring a nature as to make reasonably
practicable the formulation of general regulations to be adopted as an amendment to the
ordinance.
D. The hardship is created by the physical character of the property, including dimensions
and topography, or by other extraordinary situation or condition of such property, or by
the use or development of property immediately adjacent thereto. Personal or self-
inflicted hardship shall not be considered as grounds for the issuance of a variance.
E. The hardship is created by the requirements of the zoning district in which the property is
located at the time the variance is authorized whenever such variance pertains to
provisions of the Zoning Ordinance incorporated by reference in this ordinance.
EVALUATION AND RECOMMENDATION
It is the intent of the applicants to correct a subdivision by deed that occurred in 1961. The parcel, zoned
R-40 Residential, was developed with a single-family home in 1963. The parcel does not meet the
current minimum lot area requirement of 24,000 square feet outside water, marsh, and wetlands as
required by the current Zoning Ordinance, and thus, a variance is required. If this parcel was located on a
public right-of-way, it would also have to meet the minimum lot width requirement. The current minimum
lot width requirement for this zoning district is 125 feet; the site has a lot width of only 90.5 feet on a
private ingress/egress easement.
Although this site is not located on a public street, there are numerous lots within the city that are located
on private roadways that function as a public street, as this one has for the past 49 years. The City has
been maintaining this private street for many years, and the existing ingress/egress easement meets
right-of-way dimensional requirements of City ordinances. Staff of the Departments of Planning and
Public Works has discussed this roadway. If the pavement sections meet state highway requirements,
City staff will discuss with the property owners the dedication of this private street to the City. Adding the
street to the public roadway network will allow the City to seek roadway maintenance funding from the
Commonwealth for what is currently a private roadway that the City is already maintaining. These actions
will occur separate from this variance request, but are mentioned here as it addresses issues regarding
frontage on a public right-of-way and overall access to the lot. In regards to the lot area, the requirement
of 24,000 square foot outside water, marsh and wetlands, of relevance is the fact that this was not an
ordinance requirement when this lot was created in 1961.
Staff recommends approval of this request with the conditions below.

entities; there are common or commingled funds or assets; the business entities share
the use of the same offices or employees or otherwise share activities, resources or
personnel on a regular basis; or there is otherwise a close working relationship

CITY OF VIRGINIA BEACH
AGENDA ITEM
ITEM: Ordinance Approving Application of Rosemont Interstate Center, LLC, for
the Closure of the Remaining Part of `A' Avenue at its Intersection with Sentara
Way. DISTRICT 3 - Rose Hall
MEETING DATE: December 11, 2012
■ Background:
Rosemont Interstate Center, LLC (the "Applicant'') requests to close `A' Avenue
and incorporate the closed right-of-way into the Applicant's adjacent property at
3637 Sentara Way, where the Applicant owns an office park. When the Applicant
developed the office park, the Applicant did not have the ability to close this
portion of 'A' Avenue; therefore, the Applicant obtained a lease from the City for
the use of what was then the unimproved right-of-way of 'A' Avenue. The leased
area was then included with the overall office park development as a portion of
the parking area and also for the required interior parking lot landscaping.
■ Considerations:
This portion of "A" Avenue is a remnant of a street closure approved on April 11,
2011 for the adjoining 15,003 square foot portion of 'A' Avenue and 5th Avenue,
which were located to the South. Those closed rights-of-way were then
incorporated into the site of the existing office park. At the time of that street
closure request, the Applicant did not own the parcel to the immediate East of the
`A' Avenue right-of-way now requested for closure; therefore, it was not included
with the 2011 application. The Applicant now owns that parcel, which allows the
Applicant the ability to request the current closure.
Based on a review of the application and the reasons for the request, the
Viewers found that the closure of this right-of-way will not be an inconvenience to
the public. The addition of the closed right-of-way to the parcel occupied by the
office park will result in a parcel that is no longer encumbered by an unclosed
section of right-of-way, enhancing the parcel's current and future development
opportunities. The closure will allow the Applicant continued use of the currently
leased area as a section of the parking lot serving the adjacent office park. The
closure of the right-of-way, therefore, is consistent with the Comprehensive
Plan's land use policies for the Suburban Area, as well as the portion of the
Rosemont Strategic Growth Area located to North.
There was no opposition to the request.
Rosemont Interstate Center, LLC

■ Recommendations:
The Planning Commission placed this item on the Consent Agenda, passing a
motion by a recorded vote of 9-0, to recommend approval of this request to the
City Council with the following conditions:
The City Attorney's Office will make the final determination regarding
ownership of the underlying fee. The purchase price to be paid to the City
shall be determined according to the "Policy Regarding Purchase of City's
Interest in Streets Pursuant to Street Closures," approved by City Council.
Copies of the policy are available in the Planning Department.
2. The applicant shall resubdivide the property and vacate internal lot lines to
incorporate the closed area into the adjoining parcels. The plat must be
submitted and approved for recordation prior to final street closure approval.
3. The applicant shall verify that no private utilities exist within the right-of-way
proposed for closure. Preliminary comments from the utility companies
indicate that there are no private utilities within the right-of-way proposed for
closure. If private utilities do exist, easements satisfactory to the utility
company, must be provided.
4. Closure of the right-of-way shall be contingent upon compliance with the
above stated conditions within 365 days of approval by City Council. If the
conditions noted above are not accomplished and the final plat is not
approved within one year of the City Council vote to close the right-of-way this
approval shall be considered null and void.

SUMMARY OF REQUEST
It is the intent of the applicant to incorporate the closed portion of
"A" Avenue into the applicant's adjacent property at 3637 Sentara Way, where the applicant owns an office
park. When the applicant developed the office park, the applicant obtained a lease from the City for the use of
what was then the unimproved right-of-way of'A' Avenue. The leased area was then included with the overall
office park development as a portion of the parking area and also for the required interior parking lot
landscaping. The applicant's intent is to continue use of the right-of-way as it is currently uses.
The current development pattern for this area of the city was established in the 1960s based on streets that
were originally platted in a grid during the early 20`h century. Over time, various portions of the platted street
grid have been closed and incorporated into the developments in the area. In the 1990s, portions of South
Boulevard west of this office site were closed and incorporated into residential subdivisions.
This portion of "A" Avenue is a remnant of a street closure approved on April 11, 2011 for the adjoining 15,003
square foot portion of "A" Avenue and 5`h Avenue, which were located to the south. Those closed rights-of-way
were then incorporated into the site of the existing office park. At the time of that street closure request, the
applicant did not own the parcel to the immediate east of the 'A' Avenue right-of-way now requested for

AGENDA ITEM
ITEM: Ordinance Approving Application of Columbus Station Associates, LLC for the
Closure of a Portion of Woodland Street East of Constitution Drive (Lynnhaven)
MEETING DATE: December 11, 2012
■ Background:
Columbus Station Associates, LLC (the "Applicant") requests closure of an
18,964 sq. ft. portion of Woodland Street, which is currently part of the parking lot
and associated drive aisles for the multi -family residential community adjacent to
the south side of the right-of-way. The Applicant acquired fee simple ownership
of this portion of the right-of-way and thought the right-of-way had been closed
many years ago. The fact that this portion of the right-of-way had not been closed
was discovered during research for the right-of-way acquisitions related to the
Constitution Drive roadway project.
■ Considerations:
As part of the terms recommended as conditions of approval, listed below, the
Applicant will dedicate a 754 sq. ft. portion of its land located on the northwestern
corner adjacent to the western end of Woodland Street to the City for right-of-way
purposes and will quitclaim to the City its interest in a 2,549 sq. ft. portion of the
western end of Woodland Street immediately adjacent to Constitution Drive to
ensure ingress and egress for the property to the north. It is recommended that
no purchase price be charged by the City for this closure, as the Applicant is the
owner of the underlying fee, is seeking this street closure for the purpose of
clearing its title, and is dedicating a portion of its property to the City for right-of-
way purposes. It is also recommended that the Applicant pursue an
encroachment agreement with the City for the existing improvements located
within the unclosed portion of Woodland Street and/or Constitution Drive.
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 9-0, to recommend approval of this request to the
City Council with the following conditions:
The City Attorney's Office shall make the final determination regarding
ownership of the underlying fee. The purchase price to be paid to the City is
normally determined according to the "Policy Regarding Purchase of City's
Interest in Streets Pursuant to Street Closures," approved by City Council.
Columbus Station Associates, LLC
Page 2 of 2
Copies of said policy are available in the Planning Department. No purchase
price shall be charged by the City in this street closure because the Applicant
is the owner of the underlying fee and is seeking this street closure to clear
its title. Additionally, the Applicant is dedicating a portion of its property to
the City for right-of-way purposes.
2. The property shall be re -subdivided and the internal lot lines shall be vacated
to incorporate the closed area into the adjoining parcel. The plat depicting
said vacation must be submitted to and approved by the Planning
Department for recordation prior to final street closure approval.
3. The Applicant shall verify that no private utilities exist within the right-of-way
proposed for closure. Preliminary comments from the utility companies
indicate that there are no private utilities within the right-of-way proposed for
closure, however, if private utilities do exist, the Applicant shall provide
easements satisfactory to the utility company.
4. Dedication and Quit Claim to the City of Virginia Beach shall be as depicted
on the plat entitled, "Street Closure of Woodland Street, Virginia Beach,
Virginia, Department of Public Works, Engineering Group, Survey Bureau"
which has been exhibited to the Virginia Beach City Council and is on file in
the Department of Planning.
5. The Applicant shall submit an application to the City for an encroachment
agreement for the existing improvements located within the unclosed portion
of Woodland Street and/or the Constitution Drive right-of-way.
6. Closure of the right-of-way shall be contingent upon compliance with the
above stated conditions within 365 days of approval by City Council. If the
conditions noted above are not accomplished and the final plat is not
approved within one year of the City Council vote to close the right-of-way
this approval shall be considered null and void.

APPLICANT:
COLUMBUS
STATION

STAFF PLANNER: Carolyn A.K. Smith
REQUEST:
Discontinuance, closure and abandonment of a portion of Woodland Street, East of Constitution Drive
ADDRESS / DESCRIPTION: Property located east of Constitution Drive, known as Woodland Street
ELECTION DISTRICT: AREA TO BE AICUZ:
LYNNHAVEN CLOSED: Less than 65 dB DNL
19,158 square feet
SUMMARY OF REQUEST
The applicant requests closure of Woodland Street, which the
applicant thought had been closed many years ago; the applicant owns the underlying fee. The fact that
the right-of-way is technically still in existence was discovered during research for the right-of-way
acquisitions related to the Constitution Drive roadway project.

EXISTING LAND USE: parking lot in conjunction with multifamily dwellings
SURROUNDING LAND North:

Agenda Item 8
Page 1
NATURAL RESOURCE AND The majority of the site is impervious as it is developed as a parking lot
CULTURAL FEATURES: in conjunction with a multifamily complex. There do not appear to be any
significant environmental or cultural features on this street.
IMPACT ON CITY SERVICES
WATER & SEWER: The City previously acquired two easements for utilities that will remain and are noted to
be retained on the exhibit. One of these is actually located in the "triangle" that the applicant will dedicate to
the City so that easement becomes obsolete.
PRIVATE UTILITES:
Preliminary comments from the two private utility companies, Virginia Natural Gas and Hampton Roads
Sanitation District, indicate there are no private utilities within the subject right-of-way. No comments were
received from Dominion Virginia Power. The applicant is required to verify that no private utilities exist. The
request is conditioned that in the event private utilities do exist, easements satisfactory to the utility company
must be provided.
EVALUATION AND RECOMMENDATION
The Viewers met and were in agreement that the proposed street closure will not be a public
inconvenience and is consistent with City plans and policies.
The applicant, who owns the underlying fee, believed for many years that this right-of-way had been
closed many years ago. In fact, a parking lot for a multifamily community has been constructed and has
been used by residents since the mid-1980s. The discrepancy regarding the status of the right-of-way
was recently discovered during research for right-of-way acquisitions for the Constitution Drive
improvements. As part of the terms recommended as conditions of approval, listed below, the applicant
proposes to dedicate a "triangle" of land on the south side of Woodland Street to the City and to quitclaim
to the City their interest in 2,549 square foot area also immediately adjacent to Constitution Drive to
ensure ingress/egress for the property to the north, which is occupied by an office building. It is
recommended that no purchase price be charged by the City for this closure, as the applicant is the
owner of the underlying fee and is seeking this street closure for the purpose of clearing the title.
Additionally, the applicant is dedicating a portion of its property to the City for right-of-way purposes.
Lastly, it is recommended that the applicant pursue an encroachment agreement with the City for a brick
wall that was recently constructed in the existing Constitution Drive right-of-way.
Staff recommends approval of this request with the conditions below.

CITY OF VIRGINIA BEACH
AGENDA ITEM
ITEM: CHESAPEAKE BAY FOUNDATION/THE TRUST FOR PUBLIC LAND,
Conditional Use Permit (Environmental Education Center and Wind Energy
Conversion System), 3957 Marlin Bay Drive (GPIN 1489573361). BAYSIDE
DISTRICT.
MEETING DATE: December 11, 2012
■ Background:
The applicant requests a Conditional Use Permit for an Environmental Education Center,
and a Conditional Use Permit for two Wind Energy Conversion Systems (WECS).
In July 2012, the City of Virginia Beach and The Trust for Public Land (TPL) acquired an
approximately 118 -acre site, traditionally known as "Pleasure House Point."
Simultaneous with the conveyance of the property to TPL, the site was re -subdivided to
create a total of five parcels. Parcels 1, 2, 4 and 5 are now owned by the City of Virginia
Beach. Parcel 3 is currently owned by TPL, and it is anticipated that this 9.259 acres will
be sold to the Chesapeake Bay Foundation (CBF) in early 2013.
■ Considerations:
The Environmental Education Center (the "Center") will be the headquarters for CBF's
outdoor environment education programs designed for Hampton Roads students,
teachers, elected officials, decision makers, and the general public. The Center will also
be an active demonstration site for important and relevant habitat preservation and
restoration activities including: enhancement of wetland and oyster habitats; planting of
upland trees, shrubs, and grasses; and stormwater retention and filtering projects. In
addition, CBF will provide office space for local conservation groups and meeting space
for community organizations.
CBF's goal for the Center is to meet the "Living Building Challenge" (LBC), which is a
specific and highly exceptional designation by the International Living Future Institute.
This rare designation means the building has "net zero" impact on the environment, not
just at completion of construction but for a full year of operation after construction. As a
'Living Building,' the Center will be a national and international model for 'Green Building'
techniques, materials, energy efficiency, water use, and landscaping. The 9,000 square
foot building pad and ramps for accessibility will comprise approximately 0.5 acres of the
almost 10 -acre site. This equates to less than 1 % of the approximately 118 acres of
Pleasure House Point. At its highest point, the building is proposed to be just less than
36 feet in height. The structure is designed to ensure that the floodwater flowing from
Pleasure House Creek and Crab Creek due to a 100 -year flood event will pass under the
building. Accordingly, the foundation of the building will be on concrete piers to allow the
water to flow beneath the building. Exterior building materials include zinc -metal and
reclaimed wood siding. The building will also have a full system of fire -suppression
Chesapeake Bay Foundation
Page 2of5
sprinklers. Immediately adjacent to the building, an open air pavilion that will
accommodate up to 70 people will host educational events. In addition to nature trails, a
kayak -launch pier within Pleasure House Creek and a motorized pier within Crab Creek
are proposed to support the education and research missions of CBF. Concepts for plant
material enhancement are still under consideration and design, but will reflect the distinct
zones on the site: the upland maritime woodland community, the salt meadow
community, and the salt marsh community.
The site and building design both take advantage of the natural elements of the property.
As energy conservation has been a top priority for the design of the Center, the
architectural design allows for increased cross -ventilation from water breezes and the
maximum amount of natural daylight into the structure. Building details ranging from a
linear building layout that provides a large roof expanse suited to the collection of solar
energy to the incorporation of Audubon Society bird guidelines intended to prevent bird
collisions with windows have been considered.
The natural steady wind at this site will contribute to the generation of 40% of the
Center's electricity through use of two wind turbines, each of which will be 70 -feet in
height. The wind turbines, which the Zoning Ordinance classifies as Wind Energy
Conversion Systems (WECS), will not only provide assurance of electricity during cloudy
periods but will also provide an education opportunity. The proposed monopole wind
turbines are the same models used at Jockey's Ridge State Park and Jeanette's Pier,
both in Nags Head, North Carolina. The applicant indicated that the design and
manufacturer of the wind turbines were selected based on the company's proven track
record of function, safety and efficiency. Based on the amount of electricity this model of
wind turbine is able to generate, only two wind turbines are required to meet the goal of
generating 40% of the Center's electricity.
Until Marlin Bay Drive is extended to the site at some point in the future, vehicular
ingress/egress is temporarily proposed at Chesterfield Avenue via the currently unpaved
Winston Place right-of-way. When Marlin Bay Drive is extended, access to Winston
Place at Chesterfield Avenue will be blocked by a gate with a Knox Box, which will allow
access only for emergency responders, who have keys to Knox Boxes. Potentially, up to
27 off-site parking spaces, which will remain usable by the public, are planned along
Winston Place. Additional information regarding parking and access to the site are
provided in the attached staff report.
While the design and configuration of both the roads and the parking spaces are off-site
and, thus, not part of the Conditional Use Permit request, it is the intent of both the
extension of Marlin Bay Drive and Winston Place to be constructed as an
environmentally friendly street that will accommodate motor vehicles, pedestrians and
bicycles and will be designed to not only filter stormwater but also hold it until the
rainwater is slowly released into the natural system. The number of parking spaces
along the street, and the details, location, configuration, and composition of the road will
be determined prior to construction plan review of these rights-of-way. City Staff
(Departments of Public Works, Public Utilities, Parks & Recreation, Planning, and
Strategic Growth Area Office) will cooperatively work to accomplish this goal of creating
this street environment.

CBF's vision and plans for this site are in conformance with the Virginia Beach Outdoor's
Plan that has recommended acquisition and preservation of this site for more than a
decade. The Plan also calls for opportunities for increased public access to the
shoreline. Consistent with this recommendation, during re -subdivision of the entire 118
acres of Pleasure House Point in July 2012, the City retained the ability for the public to
enjoy the shoreline along the entire property, including the subject site, where an
easement has been established along the shoreline adjacent to the Environmental
Education Center.
The Comprehensive Plan's design guidelines also call for the application of low impact
design concepts for buildings and for sites, as well as pedestrian trail connectivity and
usable open space. Staff finds that this recommendation is met through CBF's goal to
meet the Living Building Challenge (explained in the `Summary of Request' section of
this report).
The Comprehensive Plan also acknowledges the need to develop new sources of
energy, particularly those that are renewable. The Plan promotes energy conservation,
provided safety, visual and environmental impacts are consistent with the regulations of
the Zoning Ordinance and Building Code, and it recognizes the city's unique geographic
location in capturing a readily available, renewable source of energy such as wind. The
applicant's proposal meets the Zoning Ordinance's requirements as they pertain to
setbacks, lot area, height, signage, noise, illumination, location, and appearance. In
terms of the Conditional Use Permit request for the two Wind Energy Conversion
Systems, Staff offers the following evaluation.
Based on the findings above for the Environmental Education Center and the two Wind
Energy Conversion Systems, Staff recommends approval of both Conditional Use Permit
requests subject to the conditions below.
There was no opposition to the request.

SUMMARY OF REQUEST
The applicant requests a Conditional Use Permit to allow development of the site for an Environmental
Education Center, and a Conditional Use Permit for two Wind Energy Conversion Systems.
In July 2012, the City of Virginia Beach and The Trust for Public Land (TPL) acquired the approximately
118 -acre site traditionally known as "Pleasure House Point." Simultaneous with the conveyance of the
property to TPL, the site was re -subdivided to create a total of five parcels. Parcels 1, 2, 4 and 5 are now
owned by the City of Virginia Beach. Parcel 3 is currently owned by TPL, and it is anticipated that this
9.259 acres will be sold to the Chesapeake Bay Foundation (CBF) in early -2013.
The Environmental Education Center (the "Center") will be the headquarters for CBF's award-winning
outdoor environment education programs designed for Hampton Roads students, teachers, elected
officials, decision makers, and the general public. Using nature as its classroom, the Center will enable
CBF to expand its Hampton Roads field education programs, offering a new natural learning environment
where participants can experience hands-on exploration of Pleasure House Creek, Crab Creek, the
Lynnhaven River, and the Chesapeake Bay. The Center will also be an active demonstration site for
important and relevant habitat preservation and restoration activities including: enhancement of wetland
CHESAPEAKE BAY FOUNDATION
Agenda Item 5
Page 1
and oyster habitats; planting of upland trees, shrubs, and grasses; and stormwater retention and filtering
projects. In addition, CBF will provide office space for local conservation groups and meeting space for
community organizations.
CBF's vision for the Center is to create a cutting-edge "Green" facility, compatible with its natural
surroundings, and with nearly zero impact on the land, air, and water of the site and the surrounding
creeks, river, and Chesapeake Bay. Every aspect of the Center — its location, materials, construction,
utilities, operation, and use — will meet the strictest environmental standards. The application states that
the Center will be a "...facility that is in harmony with our natural world." CBF's goal for the Center is to
meet the "Living Building Challenge" (LBC), which is a specific and highly exceptional designation by the
International Living Future Institute. This rare designation means the building has "net zero" impact on the
environment, not just at completion of construction but for a full year of operation after construction. As a
'Living Building,' the Center will be a national and international model for 'Green Building' techniques,
materials, energy efficiency, water use, and landscaping. The 9,000 square foot building pad and ramps
for accessibility will comprise approximately 0.5 acres of the almost 10 -acre site. This equates to less
than 1 % of the entire 118 acres that are now known as Pleasure House Point. At its highest point, the
building is proposed to be just less than 36 feet in height. The structure is designed to ensure that the
floodwater flowing from Pleasure House Creek and Crab Creek due to a 100 -year flood event will pass
under the building. Accordingly, the foundation of the building will be on concrete piers to allow the water
to flow beneath the building. Exterior building materials include zinc -metal and reclaimed wood siding.
The building will have offices, meeting rooms, and a large multi-purpose room. The building will also have
a full system of fire -suppression sprinklers. Immediately adjacent to the building, an open air pavilion that
will accommodate up to 70 people will host educational events. In addition to nature trails, a kayak -launch
pier within Pleasure House Creek and a motorized pier within Crab Creek are proposed to support the
education and research missions of CBF. Concepts for plant material enhancement are still under
consideration and design, but will reflect the distinct zones on the site: the upland maritime woodland
community, the salt meadow community, and the salt marsh community.
The site and building design both take advantage of the natural elements of the property. As energy
conservation has been a top priority for the design of the Center, the architectural design allows for
increased cross -ventilation from water breezes and the maximum amount of natural daylight into the
structure. Building details ranging from a linear building layout that provides a large roof expanse suited
to the collection of solar energy to the incorporation of Audubon Society bird guidelines intended to
prevent bird collisions with windows have been considered.
Power independence requires diversification of energy generation, hence the implementation of two
natural energy sources for the Center: solar and wind. Taking advantage of the southern exposure, the
applicant anticipates that the photovoltaic solar units will generate 60% of the building's electricity. The
natural steady wind at this site will contribute to the generation of 40% of the Center's electricity through
use of two wind turbines, each of which will be 70 -feet in height. The wind turbines, which the Zoning
Ordinance classifies as Wind Energy Conversion Systems (WECS), will not only provide assurance of
electricity during cloudy periods but will also provide a wonderful education opportunity. The proposed
monopole wind turbines are the same models used at Jockey's Ridge State Park and Jeanette's Pier,
both in Nags Head, North Carolina. The applicant indicated that the design and manufacturer of the wind
turbines were selected based on the company's proven track record of function, safety and efficiency.
Based on the amount of electricity this model of wind turbine is able to generate, only two wind turbines
are required to meet the goal of generating 40% of the Center's electricity.
Until Marlin Bay Drive is extended to the site at some point in the future, vehicular ingress/egress is
temporarily proposed at Chesterfield Avenue via the currently unpaved Winston Place right-of-way. When
Marlin Bay Drive is extended, access to Winston Place at Chesterfield Avenue will be blocked by a gate
with a Knox Box, which will allow access only for emergency responders, who have keys to Knox Boxes.

Potentially, up to 27 off-site parking spaces, which will remain usable by the public, are planned along
Winston Place. The design and location of these spaces are not consistent with Section 203(b)(6) of the
Zoning Ordinance, which prohibits parking space design that requires a vehicle to back out into the public
street. To use this parking design, a variance from the Board of Zoning Appeals will be sought.
While the design and configuration of both the roads and the parking spaces are off-site and, thus, not
part of the Conditional Use Permit request, it is the intent of both the extension of Marlin Bay Drive and
Winston Place to be constructed as a 'Blue / Green' street. This unique environmentally friendly street will
accommodate motor vehicles, pedestrians and bicycles and will be designed to not only filter stormwater
(the `Green' aspect) but also to hold it (the 'Blue' aspect) until the rainwater is slowly released into the
natural system. It is likely that with this unique street design, any stormwater runoff from the road that
does not infiltrate into the soil will be directed to parallel rain gardens via sheet flow. Street tree plantings
and understory trees and shrubs complete the design. No turf areas will be within the street section.
Since this type of street will provide a unique educational opportunity, interpretative signage may also be
installed to educate the public about the street and how it functions. The number of parking spaces along
the street, and the details, location, configuration, and composition of the road will be determined prior to
construction plan review of these rights-of-way. City Staff (Departments of Public Works, Public Utilities,
Parks & Recreation, Planning, and Strategic Growth Area Office) will cooperatively work to accomplish
this goal of creating this street environment.

NATURAL RESOURCE AND The site is within the Chesapeake Bay watershed. This consists of
CULTURAL FEATURES: water, tidal marsh, sandy shores and maritime forest. The shallow water
estuarine environment of the property provides habitat for the iconic
Chesapeake Bay blue crab and the Lynnhaven oyster.
COMPREHENSIVE PLAN:
The Comprehensive Plan designates the subject property as being located within the Suburban Area and,
more specifically, within the Suburban Focus Area 1 (SFA 1) — Shore Drive Corridor. The Comprehensive
Plan states that Shore Drive Corridor is an integral part of the Bayfront Community, extending from
Independence Boulevard to First Landing State Park. The Shore Drive Corridor was designated as a
Suburban Focus Area because of its unique characteristics. The area has an abundance of natural resources
and passive recreational amenities, mostly due to its proximity to the Chesapeake Bay and Lynnhaven River.
These amenities have attracted a variety of residential uses, including well-established neighborhoods as well
CHESAPEAKE BAY FOUNDATION
Agenda Item 5

as newer high density development, making the Shore Drive area the most densely populated area of the City.
Planning policies for SFA 1, more specifically, SFA 1.1 — Pleasure House Point, state that if the property is
developed, it should following these guidelines:
Support a well planned and well-designed project that could include residential, retail, office,
institutional, environmental research, or educational components or other public uses that complement
the sensitive site.
Include a significant open space component in any potential use, including publicly accessible
waterfront open space and multipurpose trails, while adhering to all environmental regulations and
minimizing social and environmental impacts. (p. 3-9)
CITY SERVICES
MASTER TRANSPORTATION PLAN (MTP) / CAPITAL IMPROVEMENT PROGRAM (CIP): Marlin Bay
Drive in the vicinity of the subject site is a two-lane divided local street. It is not included in the MTP and there
are no roadway CIP projects programmed for this roadway.
Shore Drive in the vicinity of the subject site is a four -lane divided major urban arterial. The Master
Transportation Plan proposes a six -lane facility within a 150 foot right-of-way. A roadway Capital Improvement
Project program is slated for this area. Shore Drive Corridor Improvements — Phase IV (CIP 2-118) will
improve vehicular and pedestrian traffic flow and safety for the roadway and intersections from Marlin Bay
Drive to the west end of the Lesner Bridge. It will also improve stormwater drainage; include a multi -use trail,
a five foot sidewalk, and on -street bike lanes; and enhance the corridor with aesthetic elements such as
landscaping and lighting.

WATER & SEWER: There is a 6 -inch City water main in Chesterfield Avenue. City water does not front the
property but it may be extended for connection purposes provided hydraulic analysis supports potential
demand. As the project is seeking to achieve the Living Building Challenge, it is the intent of the applicant that
rainwater will be collected and stored in cisterns and treated onsite for hand washing and potable use. For fire
suppression and emergency potable water use, the site must connect to City water as a 2 -inch water line is
planned as well as the installation of a fire hydrant.
The site is not within an existing City pump station service area. As part of the Living Building Challenge, all
waste flows must be treated on the site, and the applicant is proposing use of composting toilets that will not
send any discharge into the City's sanitary sewer system. These toilets do not require water from the public
system; however, an emergency connection to the public sewer system is proposed.
EVALUATION AND RECOMMENDATION
Evaluation / Environmental Education Center
The Chesapeake Bay Foundation (CBF), a world renowned environmental organization, is proposing to
locate their Hampton Roads headquarters, as well as an Environmental Education Center in Virginia
Beach. Focusing on Hampton Roads students, teachers, elected officials, decision makers and the
general public, the Center will provide the ability to use a natural setting as the classroom. The Center will
also enable CBF to expand its Hampton Roads field education programs, offering a new natural learning
environment where participants experience hands-on exploration of Pleasure House Creek, Crab Creek,
the Lynnhaven River, and the Chesapeake Bay.
CBF's vision and plans for this site are in conformance with the Virginia Beach Outdoor's Plan that has
recommended acquisition and preservation of this site for more than a decade. The Plan also calls for
opportunities for increased public access to the shoreline. Consistent with this recommendation, during
re -subdivision of the entire 118 acres of Pleasure House Point in July 2012, the City retained the ability
for the public to enjoy the shoreline along the entire property, including the subject site, where an
easement has been established along the shoreline adjacent to the Environmental Education Center.
The Comprehensive Plan's design guidelines also call for the application of low impact design concepts
for buildings and for sites, as well as pedestrian trail connectivity and usable open space. Staff finds that
this recommendation is met through CBF's goal to meet the Living Building Challenge (explained in the
'Summary of Request' section of this report).
The Zoning Ordinance does not provide a specific minimum parking requirement for an Environmental
Education Center. The site plan depicts access via Winston Place, where there is the potential for 27
public parking spaces along this street. As previously explained earlier in this report, a variance from the
Board of Zoning Appeals will be necessary to construct those spaces as shown. Since Winston Place is a
public street, those parking spaces will be available for public use. Based on a parking study provided by
the applicant ("Chesapeake Bay Foundation Brock Environmental Center at Pleasure House Point
Parking Assessment"), Staff concurs with the findings of that study that demonstrate the existing 80
parking spaces along Marlin Bay Drive, as well as any new spaces constructed in conjunction with either
the extension of Marlin Bay Drive or the development of Winston Place, will provide sufficient public
parking spaces in close proximity to the site for normal, daily operations. Additionally, stated in the
CHESAPEAKE BAY FOUNDATION
Agenda Item 5
Page 5
parking study, there could be on -street parking impacts to the Ocean Park neighborhood during special
events. The study states that during an event, the available parking along existing Marlin Bay Drive and
the proposed 27 spaces along Winston Place will be, "...fully utilized in the Midday and PM scenarios,
and parking will have to be accommodated elsewhere which could include the neighborhood streets
and/or satellite parking..." In order to diminish any impact to the adjacent neighborhood, Staff
recommends a condition that requires CBF events with 200 or more attendees prepare and submit a
`Traffic and Parking Plan' to the Special Events Office for review and approval, and that the approved
plan be implemented.
Finally, the submitted site plan shows a gated access point on the CBF property. The Department of
Public Works / Traffic Engineering has concerns regarding the location of the gate due to the inability to
turn a vehicle around upon reaching the gate. During final site plan review, however, details such as the
lack of turn -around space and the final location of the gate will be addressed.
Evaluation / Wind Energy Conversion Systems (WECS)
The Comprehensive Plan also acknowledges the need to develop new sources of energy, particularly
those that are renewable. The Plan promotes energy conservation, provided safety, visual and
environmental impacts are consistent with the regulations of the Zoning Ordinance and Building Code,
and it recognizes the city's unique geographic location in capturing a readily available, renewable source
of energy such as wind. The applicant's proposal meets the Zoning Ordinance's requirements as they
pertain to setbacks, lot area, height, signage, noise, illumination, location, and appearance. In terms of
the Conditional Use Permit request for the two Wind Energy Conversion Systems, Staff offers the
following evaluation.
Ordinance Regulations
Proposal's Compliance with Regulation
Professional Engineer
Requirement: A professional engineer licensed by the Commonwealth of
Certifications
Virginia must certify that the tower meets the requirements of the Building
Code and the Federal Aviation Administration, and that the structure upon
which the system is to be mounted has the structural integrity to carry the
weight and wind loads of the system and will have minimal impacts.
Compliance: While plans with an engineer's seal have been submitted, the
foundation must be specifically approved for strength. Staff recommendation
for approval is conditioned upon additional plan documentation. The applicant
states this can be easily accomplished.
Lot Area
Requirement: Freestanding WECS outside of a Residential zoning district
require 40,000 square feet plus an additional 20,000 square feet for each in
excess of one.
Compliance: As the request is for two WECS on property zoned P-1
Preservation District, the minimum lot area is 60,000 square feet (1.37 acres).
The proposal meets this requirement, as the lot has over 9 upland acres.
Setback
Requirement: The WECS must be setback a distance equivalent to at least
110% of the height of the tower or the setback in the district as per the Zoning
Ordinance, whichever is greater.
Compliance: As the tower is proposed at 70 feet, a setback off 77 feet is
required. The proposal meets this requirement.
Height
Requirement: The height of a freestanding WECS is measured from the
round level to the highest point of the tower, including the greatest vertical
CHESAPEAKE BAY FOUNDATION
Agenda Item 5
Page 6
CHESAPEAKE BAY FOUNDATION
Agenda Item 5
Page 7
extent of the blades, and cannot exceed the maximum height provided for the
zoning district where the tower is located.
Compliance: In the P-1 District, there is no maximum height requirement,
except that no building or other structure shall exceed the height limit
established by section 202(b) of the Zoning Ordinance regarding air
navigation. The applicant has submitted the plans to the Federal Aviation
Administration (FAA) for review and evaluation. A condition of this Use
Permit is recommended requiring that prior to permits being issued for the
WECS, a finding of no obstruction to air navigation by the FAA be
submitted.
Noise
Requirement: The highest level of noise generated by the system, as
measured at any adjoining property line, cannot exceed an A -weighted
decibel level of 55 dB(A).
Compliance: According the manufacturer's specifications, the operation
generates a rated sound level of 54.7 dB(A). The proposal meets this
requirement.
Illumination
Requirement: No portion of a WECS can be illuminated unless required by
the Federal Aviation Administration.
Compliance: The proposal meets this requirement, as there will be no
illumination of this system unless required by FAA.
Construction
Reguirement: All freestanding towers must be of monopole construction,
without guy wires or visible anchors.
Compliance: The proposal meets this requirement.
Siting
Requirement: A WECS must be situated on a site in a manner that minimizes
shadowing and flickering effects on any adjacent property. In this case, the
height and location of the turbine will result in minimal shadowing and
flickering on adjacent property.
Compliance: The proposal meets this requirement.
Electrical Connections
Requirement: All electrical controls, control wiring, and power lines must be
located underground or otherwise hidden.
Compliance: The proposal meets this requirement.
Braking
Requirement: Any WECS must be equipped with a redundant braking system
that engages at wind speeds that the manufacturer specifies to minimize the
potential for wind damage to the system and its supporting structure.
Compliance: According to the manufacturer, the Bergey Excel 10 wind
turbine utilizes a passive, automatic over -speed protection system in which
high wind forces cause the rotor to turn away from the wind. Advances in
technology make this system more reliable than brakes or other active over -
speed protection systems. A manual furling system, however, does allow the
rotor to be braked, although typically, it is only utilized for maintenance
purposes. Staff concludes that the proposal meets this requirement.

AGENDA ITEM
ITEM: MPB, INC., Conditional Change of Zoning, AGA & AG -2 Agricultural
Districts to Conditional 0-2 Office District, southwest corner of Princess Anne
Road and Elson Green Avenue (GPIN 2414137942). PRINCESS ANNE DISTRICT.
MEETING DATE: December 11, 2012
■ Background:
On November 13, 2012, the City Council deferred this item to the December 4
meeting date. On December 4, the City Council deferred the item to the
December 11 meeting, as the applicant submitted revisions to the proffered
plans, making a deferral necessary to meet legal deadlines. The revisions to the
plans are described below under the 'Considerations' section, and the revised
plans are attached and are also included with the staff report.
The applicant requests a Change of Zoning for a 6.5 -acre site from AG -1 & AG -2
Agricultural Districts to Conditional 0-2 Office District for the purpose of
constructing a three-story medical office building. The proposed building will
contain approximately 75,000 square feet of leasable space intended for
physician groups. The applicant anticipates that the medical groups will include
general family practice, internal medicine, as well as an advanced imaging center
and/or urgent care unit.
■ Considerations:
The proposed building is located close to the right-of-way of Princess Anne
Road. Due, however, to the acquisition of right-of-way in 2009 for Princess Anne
Road, Phase VII (CIP Project 2-195), there is currently a gap between the right-
of-way line for Princess Anne Road and the existing pavement of Princess Anne
Road. The gap ranges between 85 feet at the northern end of the site to 260 feet
at the southern end of the site.
There is no parking placed between the side of the building facing Princess Anne
Road and the right-of-way. Parking areas are grouped around the three
remaining sides of the building. Bicycle and motorcycle parking are also
provided. A stormwater management facility with an aerator is located in the
southernmost corner of the site. The stormwater facility is designed not only for
management of the stormwater, but as an attractive feature for the site in
combination with surrounding landscaping, a bench, and multipurpose path.
Accenting the main entrance of the building is a large landscaped island with a
drop-off area consisting of colored stamped concrete. A portion of the drop-off
MPB, Inc.
Page 2 of 5
is contemporary in design. The exterior building materials are predominately
brick veneer, composite metal panel, and glass.
Revisions to the Proffered Building Plan: A revised building elevation has been
proffered that reduces the number of floors of the building from three to two. The
reduction in building height is accompanied by a reduction in floor area from
75,000 square feet to 60,000 square feet. All other aspects of the building plan
remain the same.
Revisions to the Proffered Site Plan: The reduction in floor area noted above
corresponds to a reduction in the portion of the site covered by the building as
well as a reduction in the number of parking spaces being provided on the site.
As a result, 39 percent of the site is not covered by building, parking area, or
sidewalk access to the building. The walking trail around the stormwater pond is
included in the 39 percent open space, as it is recreational in nature.
The proposed rezoning of the subject property is consistent with the
Comprehensive Plan's land use policies for the Transition 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 proffers:
PROFFER 1:
When developed, Grantor shall develop the property including the building and

SUMMARY OF REQUEST
The applicant proposes to rezone the existing agricultural property in order to construct a three-story
medical office building. This proposed building will contain approximately 75,900 60,000 square feet of
rental space aimed at physician groups. The applicant anticipates that the medical groups will include
general family practice and internal medicine as well as an advanced imaging center and/or urgent care
unit.
The building is located close to Princess Anne Road and centered along this front. No parking is placed
between this side of the building and Princess Anne Road. Parking is divided around the three remaining
sides of the building. Bicycle and motorcycle parking are also provided. A stormwater management facility
with an aerator is located in the southernmost corner of the site. This facility is designed not only for
management of the stormwater but as an attractive feature to the site with surrounding landscaping, a
bench and multipurpose path.
Accenting the main entrance of the building is a large landscaped island with a drop off area in stamped
concrete. A portion of the drop off is covered by a modern awning that extends to the front entry. The

LAND USE AND PLAN INFORMATION
EXISTING LAND USE: Undeveloped wooded site
SURROUNDING LAND North: . Elson Green Avenue
USE AND ZONING: • Undeveloped wooded site / AGA & AG -2 Agricultural Districts
South: . Elementary school / AG -1 & AG -2 Agricultural Districts
East: • Princess Anne Road
• Retail center / B-2 Community Business District
West: . Elson Green Avenue

NATURAL RESOURCE AND The majority of the site is wooded. There are no known significant
CULTURAL FEATURES: cultural features associated with this site.
COMPREHENSIVE PLAN: The Comprehensive Plan designates this area of the City as Transition Area.
The Transition Area is strategically located between the more urbanized region of the City to the north and the
rural area to the south. Development proposals should strive to achieve the goal of attaining 50% open space
including berms, trees, buffers and trails to create safe, accessible and attractive roadway corridors and
internal green space. Moreover, design with nature by creating site plans that respect and showcase valued
natural resources. (pp. 4-1, 4-3)
The planning principles for the Transition Area are reinforced by the Transition Area Design Guidelines
(TADG, 2003). The guidelines emphasize larger open spaces, connected corridors, natural areas, and a
noticeable transition between the suburban north and rural south. Good design within the Transition Area will
protect natural resources, provides amenities, considers views and integrates quality design in a creative
manner. When planning a development in the Transition Area, the guidelines encourage consideration of
three themes: natural resources, amenities, and design. Preserve and integrate into the overall project the
natural resources located on the site. An amenity within the Transition Area is a feature that increases the
attractiveness or value of the site consistent with the goals and objectives of the Comprehensive Plan.
Commercial development within the Transition Area should be thought of as neighborhood serving centers; big
box commercial establishments are discouraged. Office development should be thought of as anchors that
provide significant presence to a defined area. Office space combined with a commercial node assists in
reducing the number of noontime automobile trips and can encourage a pedestrian experience.
CITY SERVICES
MASTER TRANSPORTATION PLAN (MTP) / CAPITAL IMPROVEMENT PROGRAM (CIP): Access to this
site is proposed to be from Elson Green Avenue, west of its intersection with Princess Anne Road. Elson
Green Avenue is a two-lane collector roadway with a variable (70 -ft to 80 -ft) right-of-way width with sidewalk.
It is not included on the City's MTP map. Princess Anne Road is a 2 -lane minor suburban arterial with a
variable -width right of way in this location. The City's Master Transportation Plan (MTP) Map indicates an
ultimate right-of-way width of 135 feet for a four -lane parkway for this section of Princess Anne Road. The QIP

Average Daily Trips

Sas defined by 75,000 SF medical office building
The calculated trip generation for the proposed use of this site as a Medical Office building exceeds the trigger
for a traffic impact study to be required. As such, Traffic Engineering required a minimal Traffic Impact Study
(TIS) to examine:
o The impacts to the existing signalized intersection at Princess Anne Road, as well as to the
proposed improved intersection,
o Queue lengths at the intersection of Elson Green Avenue and Princess Anne Road in relation
to the proposed exit -only driveway nearest the intersection.
The TIS submitted September 25, 2012, concluded that the proposed development does not significantly
impact the traffic operations at the existing or future signalized intersection, and that queue lengths will not
impact the operation of the proposed exit -only driveway. Traffic Engineering reviewed this study, and agrees
substantially with the conclusions and does not foresee the need for significant right-of-way improvements as
a result of the proposed rezoning.
All entrances will be required to comply with City of Virginia Beach Public Works Standards for width, radii,
throat length, sight distance, etc.
WATER: This site must connect to City water. There is a 10 -inch City water line in Princess Anne Road and a
10 -inch City water line in Elson Green Avenue.
SEWER: City sanitary sewer does not front on this site and this site is not within any pump station service
area. Pump Station service areas 615 and 626 are adjacent to this site; plans and bonds are required for
extension of sanitary sewer system. An engineering hydraulic analysis of selected pump station to serve this
site and the sanitary sewer collection system is required to ensure future flows can be accommodated and to
determine any required system modifications.
STORMWATER: The applicant will coordinate all drainage and stormwater management design and
construction with adjacent City and other public projects. The east edge of the subject property is adjacent to
the Princess Anne Road Phase VII (CIP 2-195) project. A permanent utility easement is shown along the east

edge of the subject property, which is indicative of future proposed utility work
Department of Public Health: Any food service operations will require obtaining Food Service Operations
Permits.
EVALUATION AND RECOMMENDATION
This proposed medical office is in close proximity to the Red Mill Commons area commercial node. Thus,
this proposal has an opportunity to reduce the number of noontime automobile trips by encouraging
pedestrian activity.
The conceptual plan depicts internal pathways connecting the parking areas to the entrance and around
the stormwater BMP. There is a gap in the connection of the internal path with the existing sidewalk on
Elson Green Avenue between the elementary school to the south and Red Mill Commons retail center to
the north across Princess Anne Road. The applicant has agreed to tie their internal path into this sidewalk
The rear of the building is oriented to Princess Anne Road and does not have a deep setback. However,
the loading areas at the rear of the building are exposed to Princess Anne Road with minimal landscape
buffering. The applicant intends to install additional landscaping around the loading area for better
screening along Princess Anne Road. In addition the number of parking spaces exceeds the amount
required. The applicant has indicated the need for the additional spaces due to the medical use within the
building.
The number of monument and building signs exceeds the number of signs allowed under the zoning. The
applicant intends to either reduce the number signs or submit a variance for the signs. The proposed
rezoning of the subject property from agricultural to office use is compatible with the Comprehensive
Plan's land use policies for the Transition Area.
Staff recommends approval with the above revisions to the final site plan and the following proffers.
PROFFERS
The following are proffers submitted by the applicant as part of a Conditional Zoning Agreement (CZA). The
applicant, consistent with Section 107(h) of the City Zoning Ordinance, has voluntarily submitted these
proffers in an attempt to "offset identified problems to the extent that the proposed rezoning is acceptable,"
(§107(h)(1)). Should this application be approved, the proffers will be recorded at the Circuit Court and serve
as conditions restricting the use of the property as proposed with this change of zoning.
PROFFER 1:
When developed, Grantor shall develop the property including the building and landscaping thereon, in
substantial conformity with the Preliminary Site Plan prepared by VHB, Inc. dated May 17, 2012, and titled
"Munden Property, Residual Parcel B, Virginia Beach, Virginia", (the "Plan"), a copy of which has been is on
file with the Department of Planning and has been exhibited to the City Council.
PROFFER 2:

exhibited to the City Council.
PROFFER 5:
Further conditions lawfully imposed by applicable development ordinances may be required by the Grantee
during detailed site plan review and/or subdivision review and administration of applicable City Codes by all
cognizant City Agencies and departments to meet all applicable City Code requirements.
STAFF COMMENTS: The proffers listed above are acceptable as they dictate the level of quality of the

conflict, and that in order to permit differing uses on and in the area of the subject Property and at the same
time to recognize the effects of the change and the need for various types of uses, certain reasonable
conditions governing the use of the Property for the protection of the community that are not generally
applicable to land similarly zoned 0-2 are needed to cope with the situation to which the Grantor's
rezoning application gives rise; and
WHEREAS, the Grantor has voluntarily proffered in writing in advance of and prior to the
public hearing before the Grantee, as part of the proposed conditional amendment to the Zoning Map,
in addition to the regulations provided for in the existing 0-2 zoning district by the existing City's
Zoning Ordinance ("CZO"), the following reasonable conditions related to the physical
development, operation and use of the Property to be adopted as a part of said amendment
to the new Zoning Map relative to the Property, all of which have a reasonable relation to the
rezoning and the need for which is generated by the rezoning; and
WHEREAS, said conditions having been proffered by the Grantor and allowed and
accepted by the Grantee as part of the amendment to the Zoning Ordinance, such conditions shall
GPIN NO.: 2414-13-7942
continue in full force and effect until a subsequent amendment changes the zoning on the
Property covered by such conditions; provided, however, that such conditions shall continue
despite a subsequent amendment if the subsequent amendment is part of the comprehensive
implementation of a new or substantially revised zoning ordinance, unless, notwithstanding the
foregoing, these conditions are amended or varied by written instrument recorded in the Clerk's
Office of the Circuit Court of the City of Virginia Beach, Virginia and executed by the record
owner of the subject Property at the time of recordation of such instrument; provided, further,
that said instrument is consented to by the Grantee in writing as evidenced by a certified copy of
the ordinance or resolution adopted by the governing body of the Grantee, after a public hearing
before the Grantee advertised pursuant to the provisions of the Code of Virginia, Section
15.2-2204, which said ordinance or resolution shall be recorded along with said instrument
as conclusive evidence of such consent.
NOW THEREFORE, the Grantor, for itself, its successors, assigns, grantees, and other
successors in title or interest, voluntarily and without any requirement by or exaction from the
Grantee or its governing body and without any element of compulsion of quid pro quo for
zoning, rezoning, site plan, building permit or subdivision approval, hereby make the following
declaration of conditions and restrictions which shall restrict and govern the physical
development, operation and use of the Property and hereby covenant and agree that these proffers
(collectively, the "Proffers") shall constitute covenants running with the said Property, which
shall be binding upon the Property arid upon all parties and persons claiming under or through
the Grantor, its heirs, personal representatives, assigns, grantees and other successors in interest or
title, namely:
