CITY OF VIRGINIA BEACH
AGENDA ITEM
ITEM: An Ordinance to Amend Ordinance ORD-3216F to Amend the Terms
of the Lease for City-Owned Property Located at 4th Street and Atlantic
Avenue
MEETING DATE: February 26, 2013
^ Background: The City of Virginia Beach (the "City") owns two parcels of
land consisting of approximately 17,863 sq. ft. (0.41 acre), located at the
intersection of 4th Street and Atlantic Avenue as shown on the attached location
map (GPIN: 2427-22-9617 and 2427-22-8656) (collectively, the "Property").
On February 14, 2012, City Council authorized the execution of a lease between
the City and Ocean Water, LLC ("Ocean Water") for the Property, for use as
parking (the "Lease"). The Lease is for a term of one year, with four (4) one-year
renewal options. The City has the right to terminate the Lease at any time with
90 days' written notice to Ocean Water.
As a condition of the Lease, Ocean Water was required to make paving and
landscaping improvements to the Property. The Lease provides that If the City
exercises its right to terminate the Lease during the initial term or any renewal
period, or does not approve Ocean Water's request for renewal, then the City
would, subject to appropriation, be required to reimburse Ocean Water for a
prorated portion of the actual cost of said improvements, up to $75,000.
The rent for the first year was $18,000, with escalation of 3% each subsequent
year. The City and Ocean Water intended that the rent and the $75,000 of
improvements would be the total amount paid by Ocean Water for use of the
Property.
The lease did not specify Ocean Water's obligation to pay real estate taxes for
the Property nor was Ocean Water aware of this responsibility. The obligation to
pay taxes on publically owned property leased to a private entity is set forth in §
58.1-3203 of the Code of Virginia.
Ocean Water has requested that the City amend the terms of the Lease to allow
Ocean Water to receive a credit toward its rent payments for the real estate taxes
paid on the Property. The real estate taxes for the initial term of the Lease total
$2,834.80. City staff supports the requested amendment to the Lease.
Considerations: Except for the modification set forth herein, all other terms of
the Lease shall remain unchanged and consistent with the Summary of Terms
previously approved by City Council.

CITY OF VIRGINIA BEACH
_ AGENDA ITEM
ITEM: An Ordinance to Award a License of a Portion of the City Property Located
at 4535 Commerce Street Inside the Communications Room and Under the
Spire Atop the Westin Tower
MEETING DATE: February 26, 2013
^ Background: As a part of Phase III of the Town Center Development, the City
of Virginia Beach acquired an approximately 800 square foot condominium unit
on the top level of the Westin tower (the "Communications Room"). The City
utilizes the Communications Room for installation and operation of radio and
other electronic equipment necessary for the City's communications and
information needs.
In addition to acquiring the Communications Room, the City entered into a
license agreement (the "License Agreement") with Town Center Associates 7,
L.L.C. ("TCA"), who owns the rooftop and spire above the Westin tower. The
License Agreement provides for the City's right to use all of the space
underneath the spire on top of the roof of the Westin tower (the "Spire Space")
and certain space on the roof outside the spire (the "Rooftop Space").
The License Agreement also provides that the City has the right to enter into sub-
licenses with other users for use of the Spire Space, and, in accordance with the
terms of the License Agreement, the City is entitled to keep all revenues
generated from all sub-licenses.
In the event another user licenses the Rooftop Space, the City and TCA would
share that revenue equally. The City has approval rights over all other users of
the Rooftop Space and the Spire Space to ensure such other users do not
interfere with the City's use.
HRETA, t/a WHRO, a 501(c)(3) non-profit organization, owned in part by the City
of Virginia Beach Public Schools ("WHRO"), desires to license a portion of the
Communications Room and a portion of the Spire Space for the installation and
operation of radio transmission equipment.
WHRO's equipment would be used as an FM translator/repeater station to
support WHRO's radio broadcasts. WHRO's proposed use would not interfere
with the City's use nor would WHRO's use preclude other additional users of the
Communications Room or Spire Space in the future.
^ Considerations: This I'icense would be for a term of five (5) years. WHRO will
pay no license fee, but will allow the City to use WHRO's facilities in the
Communications Room and Spire Space for emergency broadcasts in the event
of a City-wide or localized emergency that results in the activation of the
Emergency Operations Center (EOC). A sister translator/repeater, which serves
the western part of Virginia Beach, will also be available for emergency use by
the City.
On December 12, 2012, City staff and WHRO executed a Memorandum of
Understanding (the "MOU") to allow WHRO to locate its equipment in the
Communications Room and Spire Space on a temporary basis while this matter
is brought before City Council for approval. If City Council does not approve
WHRO's long-term use, then WHRO will remove its equipment within thirty days.
^ Public Information: Advertisement of the public hearing for the proposed
license of City-owned property in the The Virginian Pilot. Advertisement on City
Council's Agenda.
^ Alternatives: Approve terms of the proposed license as presented, alter terms
of the proposed license or decline to license the use of the subject premises.

CITY OF VIRGINIA BEACH
AGENDA ITEM
ITEM: An Ordinance Declaring 1,212 Sq. Ft. of City-owned Property Located
Adjacent to 708 Arctic Avenue and Lake Holly to be in Excess of the City's
Needs and Authorizing the Property to be Sold or Otherwise Conveyed to
James R. Flanagan, Jr. and Deborah J. Flanagan.
MEETING DATE: February 26, 2013
^ Background: The City of Virginia Beach (the "City") owns Lake Holly (GPIN
2427-23-1690) ("City Property"). James R. Flanagan, Jr. and Deborah J.
Flanagan ("Flanagan") own property located at 708 Arctic Avenue (GPIN 2427-
13-7482) ("Flanagan Property").
On October 28, 1997, City Council declared approximately 1,163 sq. ft. of the
City Property located adjacent to the Flanagan Property in excess of the City's
needs and authorized its conveyance to Flanagan. The sale was never finalized.
In June 2012, Flanagan contacted City staff and requested that the sale be
finalized. During review of the October 28, 1997 Council action, it was
discovered that there was no notice of public hearing as required by state law,
thus rendering the October 28, 1997 Ordinance (ORD-97-2461 E) void.
The City and Flanagan have now negotiated a land exchange, whereby the City
would convey to Flanagan approximately 1,212 sq. ft. of the City Property
("Parcel One") in exchange for Flanagan conveying to the City approximately 96
sq. ft. of the Flanagan Property ("Parcel Two"), plus paying the City the difference
in the value of the two parcels being exchanged.
The City would retain a drainage and access easement for maintenance over a
portion of Parcel One.
Summary of Exchange:
• Parcel One to Flanagan / Value = $3,636
• Parcel Two to City /Value = $288
• Balance of consideration paid by Flanagan to City = $3,348
^ Considerations: City staff has reviewed the proposed exchange and determined
that Parcel One is not needed for a public purpose and recommends it be
declared in excess of the City's needs and exchanged for Parcel Two, plus
$3,348.00.
^ Public Information: Advertisement for Public Hearing in The Virginian-Pilot.
Advertisement of City Council Agenda.
^ Recommendations: Approve the request and authorize the City Manager to
convey 1,212 sq. ft. of the City Property in exchange for 96 sq. ft. of the Flanagan
Property, plus the payment of $3,348 to the City.

CITY OF VIRGINIA BEACH
AGENDA ITEM
ITEM: Ordinance Approving Modifications to the Town Center Phase V
Development Agreement
MEETING DATE: February 26, 2013
Background: The Town Center Project (the "Project") has been along-term
priority for the City of Virginia Beach (the "City"). The City Council first recognized the
importance of the Project in the Central Business District of the City when it adopted the
Comprehensive Plan on November 4, 1997. On November 23, 1999, the City Council
adopted the Central Business District -South Tax Increment Financing District (the
"TIF") with the intent of entering into an agreement with a developer and using the funds
to help pay for the City's participation in the Project.
At its February 8, 2000, meeting, the City Council approved a Development Agreement
for Phase I of the Project containing the rights and obligations of the Virginia Beach
Development Authority (the "Authority") and Town Center Associates, L.L.C. (the
"Developer"). Phase I of the Project, comprised of a 272,000 square foot office tower,
109,000 square feet of commercial space, a 176-room hotel, an 18,000 square foot
bank headquarters building, a 1,284-car public parking garage, and public streets,
sidewalks and utilities, has been completed. Subsequently, Phases II, III and IV were
authorized by City Council. Phases II and III have been completed, while the approval
term for Phase IV has expired and will be revisited as market conditions evolve.
On November 12, 2012, City Council approved the Phase V Development Agreement.
Phase V of the Project proposed asingle-block development on Block 11 of the Project
(currently a large surface parking lot east of the Cosmopolitan Apartments). The Phase
V Development Agreement was executed on November 30, 2012. Under the Phase V
Development Agreement, Phase V must contain:
Single block, Multi-facility, Mixed-use Development /Main Building: 14 Stories
^ Parking Garage, approx. 850-875 spaces (6 levels)
^ Office Tower (8 levels above garage)
^ Apartments above ground-level parking (4 floors- approximately
267 units)
^ Retail, Main Lobby and Apartment Lobby (approximately 18,000 sq. ft.)
^ Private investment of $70.4 million.
Considerations: The Developer is now proposing to modify the Phase V
Development Agreement to expand the scope of Phase V of the Project by adding one
floor of office space (approximately 23,310 square feet), 23 additional apartment units,
3,400 square feet of additional retail space, and approximately 100 additional public
parking spaces. The ability to add 100 additional parking spaces in Phase V is
particularly important as those additional spaces should allow future development to
occur on Block 9 without the necessity of constructing additional spaces on that block,
thereby reducing the City's cost participation when that block develops.
• The additional private investment would be approximately $14 million for a total
private investment in Phase V of $84.4 million.
• The additional public parking would add $2 million to the City's overall
investment, for a total public cost not to exceed $21 million ($20 million for
parking and $1 million for streetscapes).
• The additional public costs would be funded by the TIF and from an increased
Developer payment should the Developer not construct improvements of a
sufficient assessed value on Block 9 to generate adequate revenues in the TIF
District.
• The Developer has also requested an extension of the deadline to close on its
construction loan for Phase V from March 31, 2013 to September 30, 2013.
This additional time will allow the Developer to secure financing. The Authority
holds (and will continue to hold under the modified Phase V Agreement) a
special termination right if the Developer fails to comply with this deadline.
Public Information: Advertisement of City Council Agenda.
Alternatives: Deny the amendment.
Recommendations: Approve the modification of the Phase V Development
Agreement, request approval and execution by the Virginia Beach Development
Authority of the modifications.

CITY OF VIRGINIA BEACH
AGENDA ITEM
ITEM: An Ordinance to Authorize the Acceptance of the Dedication of (1) the Boat
Basins and Waterways Located In and Near Chesopeian Colony from Cheryl
McLeskey, and (2) Dredging and Drainage Easements from Lynnhaven
Shopping Center, LLC, and Colony Pines Apartments, LLC.
MEETING DATE: February 26, 2013
Background: At the time the Chesopeian Colony neighborhood was developed, the
developer, the late F. Wayne McLeskey, Jr., reserved waterway areas for boat basins
and drainage. Mr. McLeskey also developed adjacent properties known as Lynnhaven
Shopping Center and the Colony Pines Apartments, which properties also include
submerged lands that abut the waterways in the Chesopeian Colony neighborhood.
Cheryl McLeskey, his widow, individually and as manager of Lynnhaven Shopping
Center, LLC, a Virginia limited liability company, and Colony Pines Apartments, LLC, a
Virginia limited liability company, (collectively, the "Grantor") has agreed to quitclaim to
the City any interest she has in the Chesopeian Colony boat basins and to grant
easements over portions of the waterways on the Lynnhaven Shopping Center and
Colony Pines plats. The areas consist of portions of GPINs 1497-47-3785, 1497-65-
3548, and 1497-36-7423, as shown on the attached map, and are located in or around
the Chesopeian Colony neighborhood in Virginia Beach (collectively, the "Property and
Easements").
The City has been in discussions with the Grantor in connection with the dedication of
the Property and Easements for current and future dredging needs of the Chesopeian
Colony neighborhood. The dedication of the Property and Easements will facilitate
public or private dredging of the waterways and can be used to improve drainage in the
area.
In addition, many of the lots adjacent to the boat basins and waterways in the
Chesopeian Colony neighborhood do not line up with the edge of water, possibly due to
fill placed at the time the canals and coves were initially dug out or due to survey error.
Individual lot owners have had to seek written permission from the Grantor to install
improvements necessary for the enjoyment of and protection from the adjacent water,
such as bulkheads, piers, docks, shoreline stabilization, rip/rap and similar
improvements ("Waterfront Improvements").
The Grantor wishes to reserve a perpetual easement and right of use for the benefit of
the lot owners adjacent to the Property and Easements to build Waterfront
Improvements without requiring any further permission, license or right of entry from the
Grantor, although other permits or approvals may still be required from state, federal
and/or local authorities, including the City. The Grantor also would reserve from the
dedication, on behalf of the Chesopeian Colony lot owners, the right to use an existing
boat ramp located with the areas to be dedicated.
Considerations: Cheryl McLeskey, Lynnhaven Shopping Center, LLC and Colony
Pine Apartments, LLC propose to dedicate the Property and Easements to the City, but
the City has agreed to pay the Grantor's legal costs for reviewing the conveyance
documents. Such costs would be funded through CIP 3-139 (Various Site Acquisitions -
Phase II).
City Council has been briefed on a proposed neighborhood dredging project for
Chesopeian Colony that, if approved, would be funded through a Special Services
District. If that project goes forward, the City's acceptance of the dedication of Property
and Easements will expedite the dredging project. Even if there is no Special Services
District approved for neighborhood dredging in Chesopeian Colony, private dredging

AGENDA ITEM
ITEM: An Ordinance Authorizing and Directing the City Manager to Execute a Police
Mutual Aid Agreement with the Cities of Chesapeake, Franklin, Hampton,
Newport News, Norfolk, Poquoson, Portsmouth, Suffolk, Virginia Beach,
Williamsburg, and the Counties of James City, Accomack, Gloucester, Isle of
Wight, Northampton, York, Surry and the Towns of Smithfield and Windsor
MEETING DATE: February 26, 2013
^ Background: In November 1990, the City Council passed an ordinance
authorizing the City Manager to execute a Mutual Aid Agreement for police services
with Chesapeake, Hampton, Newport News, Norfolk, Portsmouth, Suffolk, Virginia
Beach and James City. That agreement was updated in October 2003 to allow the
localities of Williamsburg, York and Smithfield to join the agreement, again in
September of 2009 to allow the localities of Franklin, Poquoson, Accomack, Gloucester,
Isle of Wight and Northampton to join the agreement, and then again in June 2012 to
allow the Town of Windsor to join the agreement. The proposed update will allow the
County of Surry to join the agreement.
^ Considerations: By executing this Agreement, the City ensures its inclusion in
this multi-jurisdictional Regional Mutual Aid Agreement. This agreement is separate
and distinct from the Statewide Mutual Aid agreement to which this City is also a party,
as the statewide agreement is only triggered when the Governor declares a state of
emergency.
^ Public Information: This item will be advertised in the same manner as other
items on Council's agenda.
^ Recommendations: Adopt Ordinance.

Terms

CITY OF VIRGINIA BEACH
AGENDA ITEM
ITEM: An Ordinance to Appropriate $357,000 from the Fund Balance of the Sheriff's
Office Special Revenue Fund to Replace Uniforms
MEETING DATE: February 26, 2013
^ Background: Code of Virginia 15.2-1613, states, cities shall provide at their
expense a reasonable number of uniforms and items of personal equipment required by
the Sheriff to carry out his official duties. The Virginia Beach Sheriff's Office has been
notified by their uniform supplier that the color "Sheriff's brown" will become a limited
color option in the future. Obtaining brown uniform replacements is growing increasingly
difficult with cost estimates anticipated to increase in future years. Maintaining the
current contract for brown uniforms would cost the Sheriff's Office around $810.40 per
deputy or $356,576 annually.
The Sheriff's Office, along with Finance/Purchasing, placed the current uniform contract
out on a formal bid. The Uniform Bid Committee evaluated and selected a new vendor
to provide blue uniforms for all Sheriff's Office sworn personnel. These new uniforms
will cost $671.66 per deputy or $295,530 annually. This new cost would save the City
$61,046 annually. Now that a contract and supplier has been selected, the Sheriff's
Office requests funding to pay for the uniform change. It is anticipated that the initial
switch from brown to blue uniforms will cost a total of $657,000. The Sheriff requests
that $357,000 be appropriated from the fund balance of the Sheriff's Office Special
Revenue Fund. The remaining amounts needed to fully transition the uniforms
($300,000) will be requested in the FY 2013-14 City budget.
^ Considerations: The Sheriff's Office believes the transition from brown to blue
will save the City money over the long term.
^ Alternatives: Increase the General Fund transfer to the Sheriff's Office by
$61,046 to cover the additional cost burden on the Sheriff's operating budget by
keeping the current uniform color of brown.
^ Public Information: Public information will be provided through the normal
Council Agenda process.

CITY OF VIRGINIA BEACH
AGENDA ITEM
ITEM: An Ordinance to Accept and Appropriate Grant Funds and to Transfer Funds for
the Purchase of Stretchers and Related Equipment for Ambulances
MEETING DATE: February 26, 2013
^ Background: The General Assembly established the Four-for-Life program for
the purpose of providing financial assistance to volunteer rescue squads and municipal
EMS agencies. As required by Virginia Code 46.2-694, the Four-for-Life program
collects four additional dollars on each state automobile license purchased annually.
Twenty-five percent of these funds collected are returned to the municipality through the
Rescue Squad Assistance Fund Grant Program for equipment and supplies intended to
enhance rescue/medical capabilities. These funds are shared among volunteer rescue
squads, career medics, and firefighters to increase medical proficiencies and to
enhance training and equipment.
The Virginia Department of Health, Office of Emergency Medical Services has awarded
the City's Department of Emergency Medical Services a Rescue Squad Assistance
Fund grant of approximately $24,854 to purchase four Stryker Pro XT Stretchers and
associated medical equipment. A local match is required, and it accounts for 60% of the
cost to acquire these stretchers. In the years from 2002 to 2011 Volunteer, Career
Medics and Fire Medics reported a total of 112 injuries due to manual stretchers at a
cost of $141,137. In an effort to improve patient Standard of Care, reduce costs,
injuries and long term back problems, Virginia Beach Emergency Medical Services'
Equipment Committee has mandated that all manual lift stretchers be replaced with
power lift stretchers. The ten rescue squads have 34 ambulances. In FY 2011-12, 4
power stretchers were purchased leaving 30 manual stretchers to be replaced. As a
best case scenario, EMS' goal is to replace all stretchers in a three-year period from FY
2011-12 to FY 2013-14. However, given funding limitations, the short-term goal is to
have at least 2 power stretchers per Rescue Squad or 20 in total by FY 2015-16. This
new equipment and supplies will be used to enhance rescue/medical capabilities that
will be shared with volunteer rescue squads, career medics, and firefighters.
^ Considerations: The State Four for Life funds are strictly governed by state law
and may be used to purchase additional or enhanced equipment or training needs. The
funds may not be use to off-set or supplant current services. The funding for the local
grant match of $37,174 is available in the General Fund Reserve for Contingencies. As
of February 5, 2013, the balance in the General Fund Reserve for Contingencies prior
to this request is $335,824.
^ Public Information: Public information will be provided through the normal
Council agenda process.
^ Alternatives: Decline the additional funding, delay purchases and funding is
reverted to the State government. Or, accept the additional funding and purchase the
equipment.
^ Recommendations: Approve the attached ordinance.

AGENDA ITEM
ITEM: DONALD JERNIGAN (Applicant & Owner), Conditional Use Permit for a
residential kennel with a maximum of 7 dogs. 2514 Malaga Court (GPIN
2414608997). PRINCESS ANNE DISTRICT.
MEETING DATE: February 26, 2013
^ Background:
The applicant requests a Conditional Use Permit for a Residential Kennel.
Currently, the applicant owns a total of five dogs: four Australian Shepherds and
one Golden Retriever. The four Australian Shepherds are show dogs and range
in age from four to eight years old. The Golden Retriever is a family pet and is
nine years old. In addition to these five dogs, the applicant occasionally boards
an additional dog for one or two nights. The applicant, therefore, is requesting a
Conditional Use Permit to allow six dogs.
^ Considerations:
The subject lot is located on the bulb of a cul-de-sac in a residential
neighborhood. Situated in the center of the lot is a detached home with a
footprint that is approximately 2,500 square feet. Behind the house along the rear
fence is a 12' x 16' tool shed and a 10' x 12' dog shed. Using fencing, the
applicant has divided the backyard into three sections to keep the dogs
separated and limit their disturbance to adjacent properties during their time
outside. Each fenced-off area allows the dogs to access an indoor area of either
the dwelling or a 10' x 12' dog shed located along the rear lot line. The applicant
has also fenced off a buffer area 20 feet deep which extends along the
northeastern side lot line from the front fence to the rear fence. This area is to
keep the dogs from "running the fence" with the pets of the adjacent property
owner, and thus, lowering the amount of disturbance to neighbors. The applicant
plans on reorganizing the fencing to include a five to eight foot buffer along the
southwestern side lot line, extending from the front fence to the rear fence, to
protect landscaping and further control any disturbance to neighbors.
Section 223 of the Zoning Ordinance, which regulates this type of activity,
requires that the area of a parcel used as a residential kennel be located 100 feet
or more from the property line of any adjacent lot unless the animals are kept in
soundproof, air-conditioned buildings. At its widest, the site is 210 feet wide. This
does not allow adequate space for the dogs to be kept outside in accordance
with Section 223 of the Zoning Ordinance; therefore, staff has included a
condition requiring that the dogs be kept within a soundproof air-conditioned
Donald Jernigan
Page 2 of 2
building. The applicant is aware of this condition, and has stated his intention of
renovating his two sheds to meet this condition.
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 10-0, to recommend approval of this request to the
City Council with the following conditions:
Unless otherwise limited by Animal Control, this Conditional Use permit shall
be limited to six dogs. At such time as any of the dogs covered by this Use
Permit die, no other dog(s) of any kind, gender, age, or breed shall be
permitted on the property to replace the dog(s). Notwithstanding however, the
applicant may keep up to four dogs as allowed by the Zoning Ordinance
without a Conditional Use Permit.
2. The applicant shall ensure that the dogs are current with regard to all required
vaccinations and immunizations and are properly licensed through the City of
Virginia Beach.
3. In accordance with Section 223 of the Zoning Ordinance, the dogs must be
kept in a soundproof and air-conditioned building. Structural
accommodations to existing sheds or construction of new building(s) to meet
this requirement shall be completed within six (6) months of City Council
approval.
4. All dogs, when outside of the home, shall remain within the fenced-in areas,
be supervised at all times, and shall not be a nuisance to any other property
owners or residents.
5. The existing fences shall be maintained in good condition.

BACKGROUND /DETAILS OF PROPOSAL
The applicant requests a Conditional Use Permit for a Residential Kennel. Currently, the applicant owns a
total of five dogs: four Australian Shepherds and one Golden Retriever.
The applicant is an award winning breeder, having bred three AKC Champions as well as the 7th ranked
"Most Agile" Australian Shepherd in the nation. The four Australian Shepherds are show dogs and range
in age from four to eight years old. The Golden Retriever is a family pet and is nine years old. The
applicant's intent with breeding is to keep one dog and sell the remaining. Besides the five dogs
associated with this Conditional Use Permit, the applicant occasionally boards an additional dog for one
or two nights. For these reasons, the applicant is requesting a Conditional Use Permit to allow six dogs.
The subject site is located on the bulb of a cul-de-sac in a residential neighborhood. The site is bound on
three sides by residential lots similar in size and character. To the southeast bordering the rear lot line, is
a Citgo Gas Station, Junior Mart, and Lago Mar Pizza. Situated in the center of the lot is a detached
home with a footprint that is approximately 2,500 square feet. Behind the house along the rear fence is a
12' x 16' tool shed and a 10' x 12' dog shed. Using fencing, the applicant has divided the backyard into
three sections to keep the dogs separated and limit their disturbance to adjacent properties during their
time outside. Each fenced-off area allows the dogs to access an indoor area of either the dwelling or a 10'
x 12' dog shed located along the rear lot line. In addition to separating the dogs, the applicant has also
DONALID JERNIGAN
Agenda Item 9

fenced off a buffer area 20 feet deep which extends along the northeastern side lot line from the front
fence to the rear fence. This area is to keep the dogs from "running the fence" with the pets of the
adjacent property owner, lowering the amount of disturbance to neighbors. The applicant plans on
reorganizing the fencing to include a five to eight foot buffer along the southwestern side lot line,
extending from the front fence to the rear fence, to protect landscaping and further control any
disturbance to neighbors.
The applicant works Thursday, Friday, and Saturday. On these days, the dogs are left outside during the
day until the applicant returns home. Sunday through Wednesday, when the applicant is home, the dogs
are only outside for a portion of the day relative to the applicant's schedule. All five of the dogs are kept
inside over night.
LAND USE AND COMPREHENSIVE PLAN
EXISTING LAND USE: Single-family residential dwelling
SURROUNDING LAND North: . Single-Family Residential / R-15
USE AND ZONING: South: • Single-Family Residential
• Citgo Fueling Station and Convenience Mart /
B-2 Community Business District
East: Single-Family Residential / R-15
West: Single-Family Residential / R-15
NATURAL RESOURCE AND The lot is typical of the pattern generally found in a suburban
CULTURAL FEATURES: neighborhood. The approximately half-acre site is flat and grassy with
mature deciduous trees and planted landscaping.
COMPREHENSIVE PLAN: The Comprehensive Plan designates this area of the City as Suburban Area and
contains policies to guide and protect the overall character, economic value, and aesthetic quality of the stable
neighborhoods in the Suburban Area. Three key planning principles have been established in the
Comprehensive Plan to guard against possible threats to this stability: preserve neighborhood quality, create
and protect open spaces, and connect suburban mobility.
IMPACT ON CITY SERVICES
Based on comments from City agencies pertaining to this request, there is no direct impact on City services as
a result of the applicant's proposal.
EVALUATION AND RECOMMENDATION
The applicant has a total of five dogs and is requesting a Conditional Use Permit to allow for a maximum
of six. The Zoning Ordinance requires a Conditional Use Permit for a residential kennel when more than
DONALD JERNIAN
Agenda Item 9
Page 2
four dogs over six months of age are kept on a parcel as pets or for hunting, exhibiting, or for dog shows.
The applicant has bred two litters in the past and may desire to breed again. In addition to the five dogs
he owns, the applicant also temporarily boards dogs owned by others from time to time for up to two
nights. The subject dogs are primarily show dogs. Currently, the dogs are left outside during the day while
the applicant is away from home. In this regard, staff has received opposition due to the amount of
barking experienced throughout the day and evening.
Section 223 of the Zoning Ordinance, which regulates this type of activity, requires that the area of a
parcel used as a residential kennel be located 100 feet or more from the property line of any adjacent lot
unless the animals are kept in soundproof, air-conditioned buildings. At its widest, the site is 210 feet
wide. This does not allow adequate space for the dogs to be kept outside in accordance with Section 223
of the Zoning Ordinance; therefore, staff has included a condition requiring that the dogs be kept within a
soundproof air-conditioned building. The applicant is aware of this condition, and has expressed his
intention of converting his two sheds to meet this condition.
Staff recommends approval of this request subject to the conditions below.
CONDITIONS
1. Unless otherwise limited by Animal Control, this Conditional Use permit shall be limited to six dogs. At
such time as any of the dogs covered by this Use Permit die, no other dog(s) of any kind, gender, age,
or breed shall be permitted on the property to replace the dog(s). Notwithstanding however, the
applicant may keep up to four dogs as allowed by the Zoning Ordinance without a Conditional Use
Permit.
2. The applicant shall ensure that the dogs are current with regard to all required vaccinations and
immunizations and are properly licensed through the City of Virginia Beach.
3. In accordance with Section 223 of the Zoning Ordinance, the dogs must be kept in a soundproof and
air-conditioned building. Structural accommodations to meet compliance with this condition shall be
completed within six months of City Council approval.
4. All dogs, when outside of the home, shall remain within the fenced-in areas, be supervised at all times,
and shall not be a nuisance to any other property owners or residents.
5. The existing fences shall be maintained in good condition.
NOTE: Further conditions maybe required during the administration of applicable City Ordinances
and Standards. Any site plan submitted with this application may require revision during detailed site
plan review to meet all applicable City Codes and Standards. All applicable permits required by the
City Code, including those administered by the Department ofPlanning /Development Services Center
and Department of Planning /Permits and Inspections Division, and the issuance of a Certificate of
Occupancy, are required before any uses allowed by this Use Permit are valid.
The applicant is encouraged to contacf and work with the Crime Prevention Office within the Police
Department for crime prevention techniques and Crime Prevention Through Environmental Design
(OPTED) concepts and strategies as they pertain to this site.

CITY OF VIRGINIA BEACH
AGENDA ITEM
ITEM: LORRAINE BRYANT (Applicant & Owner), Conditional Use Permit for a
Child Daycare. 901 Meadowood Drive (GPIN 1486614663). ROSE HALL DISTRICT.
MEETING DATE: February 26, 2013
^ Background:
The applicant requests a Conditional Use Permit to allow the continued use of
the site as an in-home day care. The applicant is licensed by the DSS to care for
up to 12 children. In addition to the applicant, there is one full-time assistant that
helps care for the children, as well as the applicant's daughter who resides at the
subject residence. The applicant became aware of the requirement for a
Conditional Use Permit at a recent licensing meeting with the Department of
Social Services (DSS). The Department of Social Services is responsible for
ensuring the quality of the care provided to the children. A `family day home' is
subject to licensure when nine to twelve children, exclusive of the provider's own
children and any children who reside in the home, are provided care at any one
time.
^ Considerations:
The child day-care is located on the corner of Stoneshore Road and Meadowood
Drive. The site is 8,451 square feet in size. The detached single-family dwelling
is situated at an angle in the center of the site with a driveway access off of
Stoneshore Road. Enclosing the back and side yard adjacent to Stoneshore
Road is a six-foot tall wooden privacy fence. The backyard is flat and grassy with
minimal landscaping. A play area for the children is bordered by a stone
walkway that leads from the fence to the day-care room, a 19' x 25' addition to
the back of the home.
Hours of operation are Monday through Friday, 7:00 a.m. to 6:00 p.m. Drop-off
and pick-up are staggered throughout the day due to the variation of the parents'
schedules. Children begin to arrive at 7:00 a.m. and continue arriving every half-
hour orfifteen minutes until the last two children arrive just after 9:00 a.m. Pick-
up is more gradually dispersed throughout the evening; the first parents to pick-
up arrive at 3:30 p.m. and the last pick-up must be made before 6:00 p.m. The
children are dropped-off and picked-upon the south edge of Stoneshore Road
adjacent to the applicant's residence. Children walk from the car through an
entrance in the privacy fence to enter directly into the play area in the back yard
and access the day-care room located at the back of the house.

ADDRESS /DESCRIPTION: 901 Meadowood Drive
GPIN: ELECTION DISTRICT: SITE SIZE: AICUZ:
14866146630000 ROSE HALL 8,451 square feet 65-70 dB DNL
BACKGROUND /DETAILS OF PROPOSAL
The applicant requests a Conditional Use Permit to allow the continued use of the site as an in-home day
care. The applicant became aware of the requirement for a Conditional Use Permit at a recent licensing
meeting with the Department of Social Services (DSS).
The applicant, Lorraine Bryant, has been licensed by DSS and providing the day-care service under the
business name, "Comfort Zone" since August 1, 2000. Comfort Zone has been located at the subject
location since its opening. The applicant is licensed by the DSS to care for up to 12 children. In addition to
the applicant, there is one full-time assistant that helps care for the children, as well as the applicant's
daughter who resides at the subject residence.
The child day-care is located on the corner of Stoneshore Road and Meadowood Drive. The site is 8,451
square feet in size. The detached single-family dwelling is situated at an angle in the center of the site
with a driveway access off of Stoneshore Road. Enclosing the back and side yard adjacent to Stoneshore
Road is a six-foot tall wooden privacy fence. The backyard is flat and grassy with minimal landscaping. A
play area for the children is bordered by a stone walkway that leads from the fence to the day-care room,
a 19' x 25' addition to the back of the home.

Hours of operation are Monday through Friday, 7:00 a.m. to 6:00 p.m. Drop-off and pick-up are staggered
throughout the day due to the variation of the parents' schedules. Children begin to arrive at 7:00 a.m.
and continue arriving every half-hour or fifteen minutes until the last two children arrive just after 9:00 a.m.
Pick-up is more gradually dispersed throughout the evening; the first parents to pick-up arrive at 3:30 p.m.
and the last pick-up must be made before 6:00 p.m. The children are dropped-off and picked-up on the
south edge of Stoneshore Road adjacent to the applicant's residence. Children walk from the car through
an entrance in the privacy fence to enter directly into the play area in the back yard and access the day-
care room located at the back of the house.

EVALUATION AND RECOMMENDATION
The applicant is requesting a Conditional Use Permit for a Family Child Daycare Home as a home
occupation. The applicant, unaware of the need for the required Conditional Use Permit, has been
operating as a Daycare Home and caring for 12 children since 2000. Staff finds that the continuation of
this use under a Conditional Use Permit is acceptable for the subject site with conditions. Opposition to
this application has been received regarding the amount of cars at the intersection of Meadowood Drive
and Stoneshore Road. Accordingly, the number of automobiles arriving, parking, and departing, on
Stoneshore Road is an issue that the applicant must address, and staff is recommending a condition
(Number 3) to address the issue.
The Department of Social Services is responsible for ensuring the quality of the care provided to the
children. A `family day home' is subject to licensure when nine to twelve children, exclusive of the
provider's own children and any children who reside in the home, are provided care at any one time.
Approval of the application is recommended subject to the following conditions.
CONDITIONS
1. The home daycare shall be limited to a total of twelve (12) children, other than children living in the
home.
2. Hours of operation shall be limited to Monday through Friday, 7:00 a.m. to 6:00 p.m.
3. The applicant shall stagger the arrival and departure times for the children such that all vehicles
picking-up or dropping-off children are parked on the applicant's front driveway or along the curb of
Stoneshore Road adjacent to the applicant's yard.
4. The applicant shall keep vehicles specifically associated with the home occupation business parked in
the driveway.
5. A sign, no greater than one square foot in size, advertising the home daycare may be installed on the
house.
6. No more than one (1) person living outside of the home, other than the applicant, shall be employed
by the home daycare.
7. A fence, to be maintained in good condition at all times, shall enclose the outdoor play area. The fence
shall meet the requirements of the Virginia Department of Social Services.
8. The applicant shall be licensed with the Commonwealth of Virginia. Failure to maintain said license in
good standing shall result in revocation of this Use Permit.
9. The applicant shall obtain all necessary permits and inspections from the Planning Department /
Permits and Inspections Division. The applicant shall secure a Certificate of Occupancy from the
Building Official for home daycare use.

CITY OF VIRGINIA BEACH
AGENDA ITEM
ITEM: MCDONALD GARDEN MARKET, LLC (Applicant) / MAUREEN GANNON for
SEARS ROEBUCK (Owner), Conditional Use Permit for an Open Air Market. 4554
Virginia Beach Boulevard (Sears at Pembroke Mall). (GPIN 1477562034). BAYSIDE
DISTRICT.
MEETING DATE: February 26, 2013
^ Background:
The applicant, McDonald Garden Market requests a Conditional Use Permit for a
Seasonal Open Air Market that will sell lawn and garden plants and supplies. The
market will be located within the parking lot of the Sears at Pembroke Mall,
where it operated during 2012. The operation of the market in 2012 occurred with
a Peddlers Permit, as provided for by Chapter 26 of the City Code; however, the
applicant was informed that continued use of the site in the future would require a
Conditional Use Permit. Thus, approval of this Use Permit will allow the applicant
to conduct seasonal sales at this site each year. The applicant has submitted this
Use Permit request for an Open Air Market (Seasonal Garden Center)
simultaneous with two other applications for the same use at different sites:
Providence Square Shopping Center and Hilltop East.
^ Considerations:
As shown by the site plan, the market will occupy an area of the parking lot
southwest of the Sears department store. While the Sears store is connected to
Pembroke Mall, it is located on a parcel that it owns. The market will be open
daily every year from March 1 through July 31 between the hours of 8:00 a.m.
and 8:00 p.m. The market will sell a variety of plants, garden supply items,
garden accents, outdoor furniture, and related accessories. The market is staffed
by two to four employees at any one time. Based on data from previous years at
this location and other locations operated by the applicant, the market will
generate twenty to thirty customers a day. The existing parking of the shopping
center will be used to accommodate customers.
The submitted site plan shows the layout of the buildings and parking areas of
the shopping center, with the market occupying an 11,0 square-foot area at the
center of the site. The perimeter enclosure of the market primarily consists of a
weather-proof fabric barrier attached to poles that are anchored to the surface of
the parking lot. A portion of the perimeter is enclosed by a low split-rail fence.
There is a portable sales kiosk, four 20-foot by 20-foot (20'x20') canopies, a
storage shed, and an entrance-exit shade structure. All of the structures are
designed to be removed at the end of the season. Arrangements for power,
McDonald Garden Market, LLC/Sears of Pembroke
Page 2 of 3
water, and employee restroom use have been made with the property owner and
approved by the relevant City departments.
The Conditional Use Permit standards for Open Air Markets (Section 239.03)
require that parking for the market be provided meeting the requirements of
Section 203; therefore, based on the square feet of area being used for the
market, 44 spaces are required. The footprint of the area where the market is
located will remove 55 of the total number of available parking spaces. Those 55
spaces combined with the required 44 spaces results in total of 99 spaces, which
does not impact the number required for the Sears. The parking lot for Sears has
far in excess of what the Zoning Ordinance now requires for retail sales; in fact,
there are portions of the parking lot that are no longer marked for parking spaces
since they are so rarely used. The proposed Open Air Market will be located on
one of those unmarked areas. In sum, ample parking is capable of being
provided simultaneously for both the existing store as well as the seasonal
market.
The overall design of this market, the Hilltop East market, and the Providence
Square market vary from site to site dependent on the existing structures on the
site and available space; however, every site uses a combination of the same
components: a shade structure; shed; low-height split-rail fencing; and wire
fencing with vinyl mesh. The applicant has reports from two Professional
Engineers regarding the safety of the shade structure and the shed structure.
Staff has recommended Conditions 4 and 5 as part of this Use Permit to ensure
compliance with safety recommendations. Each of the garden markets, including
this one, has a signage package that consists primarily of images on vinyl mesh.
signage varies from location to location based on the amount of perimeter
fencing bordering the market. Condition 3, below, specifies the type and location
of permitted signage.
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:
1. Location and set-up of the seasonal market shall substantially conform to the
submitted site plan and shall not occupy more than 55 parking spaces.
2. This Use Permit allows for operation of the market each year from March 1
through July 31 between the hours of 8:00 a.m. and 8:00 p.m.
3. All signage shall be located on or inside the fenced enclosure and shall
substantially conform to the graphics plan submitted with this application.
McDonald Garden Market, LLC/Sears of Pembroke

4. The applicant shall follow all the safety measures recommended in the
submitted report, prepared by George G. Cornwell, P.E., regarding covering all
protruding support bars for the shade structure with sandbags or other
appropriate means to protect the market's personnel as well as the public.
5. The applicant shall follow all the safety measures recommended in the
submitted report by Roland E. McPherson, P.E., regarding the tie-down
requirements for the shed structure.
6. As required by Section 239.03 of the Zoning Ordinance, there shall be no less
than one (1) trash receptacle per one thousand (1,000) square feet of sales
area. All trash receptacles shall be emptied regularly so as not to overflow,
and litter and debris shall not be allowed to accumulate.

BACKGROUND /DETAILS OF PROPOSAL
The applicant, McDonald Garden Market requests a Conditional Use Permit to allow use of the site as an
Open Air Market (Seasonal Garden Sales). The market is open daily from March 1SI, 2013 through July
31SI, 2013, between the hours of 8:00 a.m. to 8:00 p.m. McDonald Garden Centers sell a variety of
plants, and gardening furniture and accessories. The seasonal markets are staffed by one to four
employees at a time and typically generate twenty to thirty customers a day. The existing parking of the
shopping center will be used to accommodate the customers.
As shown by the site plan, the applicant proposes to occupy an 11,000 square foot area in the parking lot
southwest of the Sears department store. While the Sears store is connected to Pembroke Mall, it is
located on a parcel that it owns. This portion of the parking lot has always been one of the less utilized
sections for parking. The market area is bordered by wire fencing with vinyl mesh on the exterior as well
as low-height split-rail fence. There will be four shade structures, an entrance/exit structure, and a check-
out structure. The footprint of the area where the market is located will remove 55 of the total number of
parking spaces from being available. The parking lot for Sears has far in excess of what the Zoning
Ordinance now requires for retail sales; in fact, there are portions of the parking lot that are no longer
stripped since they are so rarely used. The proposed Open Air Market will be located on one of those
areas. The Zoning Ordinance, however, requires an Open Air Market to meet the parking requirements of
Section 203; thus, 44 spaces are required. Those 44 spaces combined with 55 spaces taken by the
MCDONALD GARDEN MARKET, LLC /Sears at Pembroke
Agenda Item 22

footprint results 99 spaces, which does not impact the number needed for the Sears. In sum, ample
parking is capable of being provided simultaneously for both the existing store as well as the seasonal
market.

NATURAL RESOURCE AND The site is paved with impervious asphalt. There are no known
CULTURAL FEATURES: significant natural or cultural resources associated with this site.
COMPREHENSIVE PLAN: The Comprehensive Plan designates this area of the City as Urban Area -
Pembroke Strategic Growth Area 4 (Pembroke SGA 4). The Pembroke SGA 4 Implementation Plan further
identifies this area as the Central Business District/Core Area, the most densely developed and intensely
occupied area within the SGA. The Central Business District/Core Area is envisioned as the main business,
cultural, and arts center of the Pembroke SGA 4. The concept proposes a highly structured urban
development framework that concentrates high density, commercial development in the central area and
provides for decreasing land use densities as development moves away from the core (p. 27). The addition of
an open air market for the sale of lawn and garden items on a seasonal basis is consistent with the plan, as
the market is located within the parking lot of the existing Sears department store and is, as noted with the
submitted application, a temporary, seasonal use.
IMPACT ON CITY SERVICES
Based on comments received by City agencies, there will be no significant impacts to City services as a result
of the use as proposed.

EVALUATION AND RECOMMENDATION
The applicant has submitted this Use Permit request for an Open Air Market (Seasonal Garden Center)
simultaneous with two other applications for the same use at different sites: Providence Square Shopping
center and Hilltop East Shopping Center. In 2012, the applicant operated with a Peddlers Permit, as
provided for by Chapter 26 of the City Code; however, the applicant was informed that future use of the
sites in the future would require a Conditional Use Permit. Each market's physical form varies from site to
site dependent on the existing structures on the site and available space; however, every site uses a
combination of the same components: a shade structure; shed; low-height split-rail fencing; and wire
fencing with vinyl mesh. The applicant has reports from two Professional Engineers regarding the safety
of the shade structure and the shed structure. Staff has recommended Conditions 4 and 5 as part of this
Use Permit to ensure compliance with safety recommendations. Each of the garden markets, including
this one, has a signage package that consists primarily of images on vinyl mesh. signage varies from
location to location based on the amount of perimeter fencing bordering the market. Condition 3, below,
specifies the type and location of permitted signage.
Staff finds that a seasonal garden market is a complementary and compatible use with the surrounding
retail center. The use is also consistent with the recommendations of the Comprehensive Plan, as it
entails the temporary infill of a developed site, uses quality structural materials and attractive displays,
provides pedestrian accessibility, and has limited environmental impacts. Staff, therefore, recommends
approval of this request for a Conditional Use Permit for an Open Air Market, subject to the conditions
below.
CONDITIONS
1. Location and set-up of the seasonal market shall substantially conform to the submitted site plan and
shall not occupy more than 55 parking spaces.

the hours of 8:00 a.m. and 8:00 p.m.

AGENDA ITEM
ITEM: MCDONALD GARDEN MARKET, LLC (Applicant) /DEAN S. POTTER
(Owner), Conditional Use Permit for an Open Air Market. 1550 Laskin Road (GPIN
2407996644). LYNNHAVEN DISTRICT.
MEETING DATE: February 26, 2013
^ Background:
The applicant, McDonald Garden Market requests a Conditional Use Permit for a
Seasonal Open Air Market that will sell lawn and garden plants and supplies. The
market will be located within the parking lot of the Hilltop East Shopping Center,
where it operated during 2012. The operation of the market in 2012 occurred with
a Peddlers Permit, as provided for by Chapter 26 of the City Code; however, the
applicant was informed that continued use of the site in the future would require a
Conditional Use Permit. Thus, approval of this Use Permit will allow the applicant
to conduct seasonal sales at this site each year. The applicant has submitted this
Use Permit request for an Open Air Market (Seasonal Garden Center)
simultaneous with two other applications for the same use at different sites:
Providence Square Shopping center and Sears at Pembroke Mall.
^ Considerations:
The market will occupy an area of the parking lot centrally located in the parking
lot. The market will be open daily every year from March 1 through July 31
between the hours of 8:00 a.m. and 8:00 p.m. The market will sell a variety of
plants, garden supply items, garden accents, outdoor furniture, and related
accessories. The market is staffed by two to four employees at any one time.
Based on data from previous years at this location and other locations operated
by the applicant, the market will generate twenty to thirty customers a day. The
existing parking of the shopping center will be used to accommodate customers.
The submitted site plan shows the layout of the buildings and parking areas of
the shopping center, with the market occupying an 11,232 square-foot area at
the center of the site. The perimeter enclosure of the market primarily consists of
a weather-proof fabric barrier attached to poles that are anchored to the surface
of the parking lot. A portion of the perimeter is enclosed by a low split-rail fence.
There is a portable sales kiosk, four 20-foot by 20-foot (20'x20') canopies, a
storage shed, and an entrance-exit shade structure. All of the structures are
designed to be removed at the end of the season. Arrangements for power,
water, and employee restroom use have been made with the property owner and
approved by the relevant City departments.
McDonald Garden Market, LLC (Hilltop East)
Page 2 of 3
The Conditional Use Permit standards for Open Air Markets (Section 239.03)
require that parking for the market be provided meeting the requirements of
Section 203. Accordingly, the market is required to provide 45 spaces. The
Hilltop East Shopping Center has 695 parking spaces on the property. Based on
the shopping center requirements in Section 203(a)(33), a shopping center
containing at least one acre or having more than four tenants (Hilltop East
satisfies both) must provide one parking space per 250 square feet of floor area.
The shopping center, therefore, is required to have 496 parking spaces, which
results in a `surplus' of 199 parking spaces. The McDonald Garden Market will
occupy 52 parking spaces. The combination of the 52 parking spaces
encumbered by the location of the market and the 45 spaces required for the
market itself results in 97 spaces. Since there is a current `surplus' of 199
spaces, sufficient parking is available.
The overall design of this market, the Sears (Pembroke Mall) market, and the
Providence Square market vary from site to site dependent on the existing
structures on the site and available space; however, every site uses a
combination of the same components: a shade structure; shed; low-height split-
rail fencing; and wire fencing with vinyl mesh. The applicant has reports from two
Professional Engineers regarding the safety of the shade structure and the shed
structure. Staff has recommended Conditions 4 and 5 as part of this Use Permit
to ensure compliance with safety recommendations. Each of the garden markets,
including this one, has a signage package that consists primarily of images on
vinyl mesh. signage varies from location to location based on the amount of
perimeter fencing bordering the market. Condition 3, below, specifies the type
and location of permitted signage.
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:
1. Location and set-up of the seasonal market shall substantially conform to the
submitted site plan and shall not occupy more than 52 parking spaces.
2. This Use Permit allows for operation of the market each year from March 1
through July 31 between the hours of 8:00 a.m. and 8:00 p.m.
3. All signage shall be located on or inside the fenced enclosure and shall
substantially conform to the graphics plan submitted with this application.
4. The applicant shall follow all the safety measures recommended in the
submitted report, prepared by George G. Cornwell, P.E., regarding covering
all protruding support bars for the shade structure with sandbags or other
appropriate means to protect the market's personnel as well as the public.

5. The applicant shall follow all the safety measures recommended in the
submitted report by Roland E. McPherson, P.E., regarding the tie-down
requirements for the shed structure.
6. As required by Section 239.03 of the Zoning Ordinance, there shall be no less
than one (1) trash receptacle per one thousand (1,000) square feet of sales
area. All trash receptacles shall be emptied regularly so as not to overflow,
and litter and debris shall not be allowed to accumulate.

NATURAL RESOURCE AND
CULTURAL FEATURES: The site is entirely impervious.
COMPREHENSIVE PLAN: The Hilltop East Shopping Center is located in the Urban Area -Hilltop Strategic
Growth Area (SGA 7) as identified by the Comprehensive Plan. The Hilltop SGA is recognized as an area
primed for redevelopment and reinvestment because of its existing commercial strength and its proximity to
the Oceanfront Resort SGA, NAS Oceana, and the First Colonial Road / I-264 interchange. The Hilltop
Strategic Growth Area Master Plan, which was adopted as a Comprehensive Plan amendment on August 28,
2012, provides recommendations for this SGA. The addition of an open air market for the sale of lawn and
garden items on a seasonal basis is consistent with the plan, as the market is located within the existing Hilltop
East Shopping Center and is, as noted with the submitted application, a temporary, seasonal use.
IMPACT ON CITY SERVICES
Based on comments received by City agencies, there will be no significant impacts to City services as a
result of the use as proposed.

EVALUATION AND RECOMMENDATION
The applicant has submitted this Use Permit request for an Open Air Market (Seasonal Garden Center)
simultaneous with two other applications for the same use at different sites: Providence Square Shopping
center and Sears at Pembroke Mall. In 2012, the applicant operated with a Peddlers Permit, as provided
for by Chapter 26 of the City Code; however, the applicant was informed that future use of the sites in the
future would require a Conditional Use Permit. Each market's physical form varies from site to site
dependent on the existing structures on the site and available space; however, every site uses a
combination of the same components: a shade structure; shed; low-height split-rail fencing; and wire
fencing with vinyl mesh. The applicant has reports from two Professional Engineers regarding the safety
of the shade structure and the shed structure. Staff has recommended Conditions 4 and 5 as part of this
Use Permit to ensure compliance with safety recommendations. Each of the garden markets, including
this one, has a signage package that consists primarily of images on vinyl mesh. signage varies from
location to location based on the amount of perimeter fencing bordering the market. Condition 3, below,
specifies the type and location of permitted signage.
Staff finds that a seasonal garden market is a complementary and compatible use with the surrounding
retail center. The use is also consistent with the recommendations of the Comprehensive Plan, as it
entails the temporary infill of a developed site, uses quality structural materials and attractive displays,
provides pedestrian accessibility, and has limited environmental impacts. Staff, therefore, recommends
approval of this request for a Conditional Use Permit for an Open Air Market, subject to the conditions
below.
CONDITIONS
1. Location and set-up of the seasonal market shall substantially conform to the submitted site plan and
shall not occupy more than 52 parking spaces.
2. The applicant shall only operate at this location from March 15~, 2013 through July 315, 2013, between
the hours of 8:00 a.m. and 8:00 p.m.
3. All signage shall be located on or inside the fenced enclosure and shall substantially conform to the
graphics plan submitted with this application.
4. The applicant shall follow all the safety measures recommended in the submitted report, prepared by
George G. Cornwell, P.E., regarding covering all protruding support bars for the shade structure with
sandbags or other appropriate means to protect the market's personnel as well as the public.
5. The applicant shall follow all the safety measures recommended in the submitted report by Roland E.
McPherson, P.E., regarding the tie-down requirements for the shed structure.
6. As required by Section 239.03 of the Zoning Ordinance, there shall be no less than one (1) trash

AGENDA ITEM
ITEM: MCDONALD GARDEN MARKET, LLC (Applicant) /PROVIDENCE SQUARE
ASSOCIATES, LLC (Owner), Conditional Use Permit for an Open Air Market. 1043
Providence Square SC (GPIN 1466538222). KEMPSVILLE DISTRICT.
MEETING DATE: February 26, 2013
^ Background:
The applicant, McDonald Garden Market requests a Conditional Use Permit for a
Seasonal Open Air Market that will sell lawn and garden plants and supplies. The
market will be located within the parking lot of the Providence Square Shopping
Center, where it operated during 2012. The operation of the market in 2012
occurred with a Peddlers Permit, as provided for by Chapter 26 of the City Code;
however, the applicant was informed that continued use of the site in the future
would require a Conditional Use Permit. Thus, approval of this Use Permit will
allow the applicant to conduct seasonal sales at this site each year. The
applicant has submitted this Use Permit request for an Open Air Market
(Seasonal Garden Center) simultaneous with two other applications for the same
use at different sites: Sears at Pembroke Mall and Hilltop East.
^ Considerations:
As shown on the submitted site plan, the market will occupy a 9,030 square foot
area in the northeast corner of the shopping center parking lot. The market is
open daily from March 1St to July 31St, between the hours of 8:00 a.m. to 8:00
p.m. McDonald Garden Centers sell a variety of plants, and gardening furniture
and accessories. The seasonal markets are staffed by one to four employees at
any one time. Based on data from previous years at this location and other
locations operated by the applicant, the market will generate twenty to thirty
customers a day.
The submitted site plan shows the layout of the buildings and parking areas of
the shopping center, with the market occupying a 9,030 square-foot area in the
northeast corner of the site. The perimeter enclosure of the market primarily
consists of a weather-proof fabric barrier attached to poles that are anchored to
the surface of the parking lot. A portion of the perimeter is enclosed by a low
split-rail fence. There is a portable sales kiosk, four 20-foot by 20-foot (20'x20')
canopies, a storage shed, and an entrance-exit shade structure. All of the
structures are designed to be removed at the end of the season. Arrangements
for power, water, and employee restroom use have been made with the property
owner and approved by the relevant City departments.
McDonald Garden Market, LLC (Providence Square)
Page2of3
The existing parking of the shopping center will be used to accommodate the
customers. The footprint of the area where the market is located will remove 31
parking spaces. Based on the Zoning Ordinance requirement for parking within a
shopping center, the parcel containing this section of the shopping center and the
market has an excess of 101 spaces. The Zoning Ordinance requires an Open-
Air Market to meet the parking requirements of Section 203; thus, 44 spaces are
required. Those 44 spaces combined with 31 spaces taken by the footprint
results 75 spaces, which is below the excess of 101 spaces.
The overall design of this market, the Sears (Pembroke Mall) market, and the
Hilltop East market vary from site to site dependent on the existing structures on
the site and available space; however, every site uses a combination of the same
components: a shade structure; shed; low-height split-rail fencing; and wire
fencing with vinyl mesh. The applicant has reports from two Professional
Engineers regarding the safety of the shade structure and the shed structure.
Staff has recommended Conditions 4 and 5 as part of this Use Permit to ensure
compliance with safety recommendations. Each of the garden markets, including
this one, has a signage package that consists primarily of images on vinyl mesh.
signage varies from location to location based on the amount of perimeter
fencing bordering the market. Condition 3, below, specifies the type and location
of permitted signage.
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:
1. Location and set-up of the seasonal market shall substantially conform to the
submitted site plan and shall not occupy more than 31 parking spaces.
2. This Use Permit allows for operation of the market each year from March 1
through July 31 between the hours of 8:00 a.m. and 8:00 p.m.
3. All signage shall be located on or inside the fenced enclosure and shall
substantially conform to the graphics plan submitted with this application.
4. The applicant shall follow all the safety measures recommended in the
submitted report, prepared by George G. Cornwell, P.E., regarding covering
all protruding support bars for the shade structure with sandbags or other
appropriate means to protect the market's personnel as well as the public.
5. The applicant shall follow all the safety measures recommended in the
submitted report by Roland E. McPherson, P.E., regarding the tie-down
requirements for the shed structure.
6. As required by Section 239.03 of the Zoning Ordinance, there shall be no less
than one (1) trash receptacle per one thousand (1,000) square feet of sales

BACKGROUND /DETAILS OF PROPOSAL
The applicant, McDonald Garden Market requests a Conditional Use Permit to allow use of the site as an
Open Air Market (Seasonal Garden Sales). The market is open daily from March 1St, 2013 through July
31St, 2013, between the hours of 8:00 a.m. to 8:00 p.m. McDonald Garden Centers sell a variety of
plants, and gardening furniture and accessories. The seasonal markets are staffed by one to four
employees at a time and typically generate twenty to thirty customers a day. The existing parking of the
shopping center will be used to accommodate the customers.
As shown by the site plan, the applicant proposes to occupy a 9,030 square foot area in the northeast
corner of the shopping center parking lot. The market area is bordered by wire fencing with vinyl mesh on
the exterior as well as low-height split-rail fence. There will be four shade structures, an entrance/exit
structure, and acheck-out structure. The footprint of the area where the market is located will remove 31
parking spaces from being available. Based on the Zoning Ordinance requirement for parking within a
shopping center, the parcel containing this section of the shopping center and the market has an excess
of 101 spaces. The Zoning Ordinance requires an Open-Air Market to meet the parking requirements of
Section 203; thus, 44 spaces are required. Those 44 spaces combined with 31 spaces taken by the
MCDONALD GARDEN MARKET, LLC (Providence,Square)
Agenda Item 14
Page 1
footprint results 75 spaces, which is below the excess of 101 spaces. In sum, ample parking is capable of
being provided simultaneously for both the existing shopping center as well as the seasonal market.
LAND USE AND COMPREHENSIVE PLAN
EXISTING LAND USE: The parcel that encompasses this location of the market is currently developed as a
commercial strip center. The area within said parcel specific to the request for a Conditional Use Permit
consists of paved and striped parking and interior landscaping.
SURROUNDING LAND North: Paved Parking
USE AND ZONING: Retail shops / B-2 Community Business District
South: Paved Parking
• Townhouses / A-12 Apartment
• Strip Retail Center / B-2 Community Business District
East: Paved Parking
• Wells Fargo Bank / B-2 Community Business District
• Exxon Gas Station / B-2 Community Business District
West: Paved Parking
• Providence Square Shopping Center / B-2 Community
Business District
NATURAL RESOURCE AND This site has been developed as a paved parking lot and includes
CULTURAL FEATURES: interior curbed landscaping. There are no known significant natural or
cultural features on the site.
COMPREHENSIVE PLAN: The Comprehensive Plan designates the Providence Square Shopping Center to
be one of the city's Major Commercial Centers. The Providence Square Shopping Center is located in an area
defined by the Comprehensive Plan as a Suburban Area. To maintain the stability of Suburban Areas, the
Comprehensive Plan recommends the preservation of neighborhood quality, the creation and protection of
open spaces, and the connection of suburban mobility. Compatible infill development, quality materials,
attractive site and building design, improved mobility, residential buffering, and environmental sensitivity are all
suggested by the Comprehensive Plan. The use of a portion of the parking lot for an open-air market is
consistent with the Plan's recommendations, as the market is located in a small area of an existing shopping
center, is seasonal in character, and is quality in design.
IMPACT ON CITY SERVICES
Based on comments from City agencies pertaining to this request, there is no direct impact on City services as
a result of the applicant's proposal.

EVALUATION AND RECOMMENDATION
The applicant has submitted this Use Permit request for an Open Air Market (Seasonal Garden Center)
simultaneous with two other applications for the same use at different sites: Sears at Pembroke Mall and
Hilltop East Shopping Center. In 2012, the applicant operated with a Peddlers Permit, as provided for by
Chapter 26 of the City Code; however, the applicant was informed that future use of the sites in the future
would require a Conditional Use Permit. Each market's physical form varies from site to site dependent on
the existing structures on the site and available space; however, every site uses a combination of the
same components: a shade structure; shed; low-height split-rail fencing; and wire fencing with vinyl mesh.
The applicant has reports from two Professional Engineers regarding the safety of the shade structure
and the shed structure. Staff has recommended Conditions 4 and 5 as part of this Use Permit to ensure
compliance with safety recommendations. Each of the garden markets, including this one, has a signage
package that consists primarily of images on vinyl mesh. signage varies from location to location based
on the amount of perimeter fencing bordering the market. Condition 3, below, specifies the type and
location of permitted signage.
Staff finds that a seasonal garden market is a complementary and compatible use with the surrounding
retail center. The use is also consistent with the recommendations of the Comprehensive Plan, as it
entails the temporary infill of a developed site, uses quality structural materials and attractive displays,
provides pedestrian accessibility, and has limited environmental impacts. Staff, therefore, recommends
approval of this request for a Conditional Use Permit for an Open Air Market, subject to the conditions
below.
CONDITIONS
1. Location and set-up of the seasonal market shall substantially conform to the submitted site plan and
shall not occupy more than 31 parking spaces.
2. The applicant shall only operate at this location from March 1St, 2013 through July 31St, 2013, between
the hours of 8:00 a.m. and 8:00 p.m.
3. All signage shall be located on or inside the fenced enclosure and shall substantially conform to the
graphics plan submitted with this application.
4. The applicant shall follow all the safety measures recommended in the submitted report, prepared by
George G. Cornwell, P.E., regarding covering all protruding support bars for the shade structure with
sandbags or other appropriate means to protect the market's personnel as well as the public.
5. The applicant shall follow all the safety measures recommended in the submitted report by Roland E.
McPherson, P.E., regarding the tie-down requirements for the shed structure.
6. As required by Section 239.03 of the Zoning Ordinance, there shall be no less than one (1) trash
receptacle per one thousand (1,000) square feet of sales area. All trash receptacles shall be emptied
regularly so as not to overflow, and litter and debris shall not be allowed to accumulate.

Conditional Use Permit for a bulk storage yard. 3056 Holland Road (GPIN
1495240400). PRINCESS ANNE DISTRICT.
MEETING DATE: February 26, 2013
^ Background:
The site is currently zoned AG-2 Agricultural, O-2 Office, and Conditional I-1
Light Industrial. The applicant operates a roofing company from the site, which
operates 5 days a week, 12 hours a day, and employees a minimum of 16
people. The applicant is requesting a Change of Zoning to Conditional I-1 Light
Industrial for the purpose of constructing additional warehouse space. The
applicant also requests a Conditional Use Permit for bulk storage.
^ Considerations:
The site is occupied by a one-story L-shaped building containing 10,962 square
feet of floor area. Parking areas are located between the building and Holland
Road. Mature landscaping exists along Holland Road, along the southern
property line from Holland Road to the building, and along the rear of the site. A
bulk storage yard of roofing materials occurs between the building and the
property lines.
The plan submitted with the Use Permit depicts the proposed bulk storage area,
fencing, landscaping, and a 50-foot by 50-foot (50'x50') addition to the building.
The existing 18-foot by 36-foot (18'x36') metal shed will be removed and
replaced with a 20-foot by 25-foot (20'x25') storage shed at the rear of the site.
The proposal is consistent with the Comprehensive Plan's land use policies for
Special Economic Growth Area 3 (SEGA 3) South Oceana. Additionally rezoning
the entire site to a light industrial category is consistent with City's Air
Installations Compatible Use Zone (AICUZ) program.
There was no opposition to the request.

SURROUNDING LAND North: AG-2 Agricultural and O-2 Office /Undeveloped land
USE AND ZONING: South: . AG-2 Agricultural /Animal kennel (SPCA)
East: . AG-2 Agricultural /Undeveloped land
West: . Holland Road
NATURAL RESOURCE AND There are no significant natural resources or cultural features associated
CULTURAL FEATURES: with the site. The site lies within the Southern Watershed Management
Area Overlay District and, as such, would be subject to all site
development regulations associated with such as the time of site plan
review.
COMPREHENSIVE PLAN: Suburban Area -Special Economic Growth Area 3 (SEGA 3), South Oceana
The Comprehensive Plan designates this area of the City as being within the Suburban Area and, more
specifically, within Special Economic Growth Area 3 (SEGA 3), South Oceana. The SEGAs are located
adjacent to NAS Oceana and have significant economic value and growth potential, targeting land uses
compatible with the military uses. The City supports development of and redevelopment of SEGAs consistent
with AICUZ provisions and the City's economic growth strategy.
SEGA 3 is a large hourglass shaped tract of land encompassing properties on both sides of Dam Neck Road
between Holland Road and Corporate Landing Parkway. In the western part of this area, between Drakesmile
Road and Holland Road, there are considerable environmental constraints. To varying degrees, portions of
ROOF SERVICES JGM CORPORATION
Agenda Items 4 & 5
Page 2
this area are impacted by high noise zones, accident potential zones, and Navy restrictive easements.
Floodplain and other environmental constraints affect the western region of this area south of Dam Neck
Road.
Comprehensive Plan policies for SEGA 3, relevant to the subject property and this Conditional Rezoning and
Use Permit request, are:
• The western region of this area is planned for non-residential uses to include a mix of light industrial,
low-rise office and limited retail use.
• All proposed land uses in this area must align with the City's AICUZ provisions and the Ocean Land
Use Conformity Program.
IMPACT ON CITY SERVICES
MASTER TRANSPORTATION PLAN (MTP) /CAPITAL IMPROVEMENT PROGRAM (CIP): The site is
located adjacent to the two-lane section of Holland Road east of Dam Neck Road. According to the Master
Transportation Plan Major Street Network Ultimate Rights-of-Way document, this section of Holland Road will
ultimately have afour-lane typical section within a 110-foot wide right-of-way. There is a VDOT-administered
CIP Project, #2.158.000 Holland Road -Phase VI, for the construction of this four-lane section. This project is
in the design stage, and advertisement for construction is scheduled for February 2014.
The trip generation provided below was estimated by designating the site for a general light industrial use. The
bulk storage yard was excluded from the estimate, as it is ancillary to the principal use.

EVALUATION AND RECOMMENDATION
The proposed conditional rezoning from AG-2 Agricultural, O-2 Office, and Condition I-1 Light Industrial to
Conditional I-1 Light Industrial and the Conditional Use Permit request for a bulk storage yard are
consistent with the Comprehensive Plan's land use policies for Special Economic Growth Area 3 (SEGA
3) South Oceana. Additionally rezoning the entire site to a light industrial category is consistent with City's
Air Installations Compatible Use Zone program.
One minor issue must be addressed through the Use Permit approval. The Zoning Ordinance requires
the bulk storage area to be enclosed by Category VI screening, which consists of a minimum 6-foot tall
solid fence and Category 1 landscape plantings. Category 1 landscape plantings require a minimum 5-
foot wide planting bed. The submitted Use Permit exhibit plan depicts an 8-foot tall ornamental security
fence along both the northern and southern property lines; however, the southern property line does not
include the required planting bed. The screening depicted along the northern line meets ordinance
requirements since it includes the required planting bed. Section 221 (i) of the City Zoning Ordinance
states that, "The city council may, for good cause shown and upon a finding that there will be no
significant detrimental effects on surrounding properties, allow reasonable deviations from the following
requirements otherwise applicable to the proposed development:
(1) Required setbacks;
(2) Required landscaping;
(3) Height restrictions, except as provided in Section 202(b); and
(4) Minimum lot area requirements."
Staff concludes that a deviation to the requirement for a Category 1 landscape buffer as part of the overall
Category VI screening requirement for the bulk storage yard is appropriate, as there will be no significant
detrimental effects on the surrounding properties. Staff recommends approval of the use of the 8-foot tall
ornamental security fencing along the property lines; however, the requirement for a minimum 5-foot
planting bed with Category 1 landscape screening shall be required on the inside of the security fence
along the property line(s) around the bulk storage area.
Staff recommends approval of the requests for a Conditional Change of Zoning and a Conditional Use
Permit subject to the proffers and conditions below.
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 the Property is developed, it shall be developed substantially as shown on the "EXHIBIT OF ROOF

significant detrimental effects on the surrounding properties by such action, a deviation to the
screening requirements for bulk storage yards (Section 228) is permitted as follows. The required
Category I landscape buffer shall be installed within 5 feet of the property lines adjacent to the bulk
storage area. The proposed 8-foot tall ornamental security fence may be placed on the property lines
adjacent to the bulk storage area.
3. Existing mature landscaping along Holland Road and along the southern portion of the site between
Holland Road and the building shall be retained and maintained in good condition.
NOTE: Further conditions maybe required during the administration of applicable City Ordinances and
Standards. Any site plan submitted with this application may require revision during detailed site plan
review to meet all applicable City Codes and Standards. All applicable permits required by the City
Code, including those administered by the Department of Planning /Development Services Center and
Department of Planning /Permits and Inspections Division, and the issuance of a Certificate of

G P I N: 1495-24-0400
WHEREAS, the Grantors acknowledge that the competing and sometimes incompatible
uses conflict and that in order to permit differing uses on and in the area of the Property
and at the same time to recognize the effects of change, and the need for various types
of uses, certain reasonable conditions governing the use of the Property that are not
generally applicable to land similarly zoned are needed to cope with the situation to
which the Grantors' rezoning application gives rise; and
WHEREAS, the Grantors have voluntarily proffered, in writing, in advance of and
prior to the public hearing before the Grantee, as part of the proposed amendment to
the Zoning Map, in addition to the regulations provided under the existing overall Zoning
:Ordinance, 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
Zoning Map relative and applicable to the Property, which has a reasonable relation to
the rezoning and the need for which is generated by the rezoning, and which the parties
intend to replace and supersede the previous Agreement for conditional zoning changes
which is recorded in the Clerk's Office of the Circuit Court for the City of Virginia Beach,
Virginia, in Deed Book 3475 at page 1368.

Book 3475 at page 1368, and shall continue in full force and effect until a consequent
amendment changes the zoning of the Property and specifically repeals such
conditions. Such conditions shall continue despite a subsequent amendment to the

to Conditional O-2 Office. 1333 Diamond Springs Road (GPIN 1469009994).
BAYSIDE DISTRICT.
VIRGINIA SUPPORTIVE HOUSING (Applicant) / CF USB REO, LLC
(Applicant), Conditional Use Permit for a Single Room Occupancy Facility.
1333 Diamond Springs Road (GPIN 1469009994). BAYSIDE DISTRICT.
MEETING DATE: February 26, 2013
^ Background:
In 2007, Value Place Real Estate Services, LLC, sought and was granted approval for a
Modification of Proffers associated with a 2006 Change of Zoning from B-2 Community
Business to I-1 Light Industrial. The Modification of Proffers was sought for the purpose
of developing a hotel on the parcel. A Conditional Use Permit for a hotel was granted at
the same time as the Modification. The proposed hotel was never constructed on the
site; however, the Conditional I-1 zoning of the site and the Use Permit for the hotel still
control the use and development of the site.
The applicant, Virginia Supportive Housing (VSH), is a 501(c)(3) non-profit organization
that provides housing opportunities to those in Virginia who are in need of housing. The
applicant is proposing development of the subject site for aSingle-Room Occupancy
Facility (SRO). To develop a SRO on the site, a Change of Zoning from Conditional I-1
Light Industrial to O-2 Office and a Conditional Use Permit for a SRO is necessary. The
applicant, therefore, is seeking approval of both.
^ Considerations:
The development will consist of two four-story buildings containing a total of 81 single-
room occupancy dwelling units. The two buildings are connected by a narrow section of
building that contains a hallway. Vehicular access to the site is located on Diamond
Springs Road along the southern lot line, which is the same location of the current
access. In addition to providing access to the subject site, a Deed of Easement provides
the site to the south with the right to use the access point. Accordingly, there is a 55-foot
opening along the southern lot line adjacent to the access point that provides access to
that site. Parking spaces are located behind the building.
The buildings possess variation in the facade through the use of bays that `pop out' from
the main plane of the building. The `pop-outs' provide the internal spaces of the dwelling
units with greater window area, which the applicant has found to be a desired feature of
residents. The exterior materials consist of a combination of brick, brick veneer panels,
and precast concrete detail features, with exposed steel beams at the first floor level.
Virginia Supportive Housing
Page 2 of 3
The buildings will include Energy Star appliances, and, to supplement electrical supply,
the applicant intends to use solar panels to the extent possible, such as they have done
at many of their recent projects throughout the state. Construction materials for the
buildings will be Earth Craft certified.
The applicant's proposed use is unique in that it is not a traditional apartment complex,
having elements that are similar to a hotel type of use. At the same time, however, the
units are permanent residences, just as apartment units are. The Burton Station
Strategic Growth Area (SGA) Implementation Plan does recommend apartments as a
component of the mixed-uses (office, restaurants, retail, hotels, apartments, and
professional services) called for within this portion of the SGA. Accordingly, the
proposed use is consistent with the recommendations of the Plan. Additionally, the two
proposed buildings are designed in a way that they give the appearance of being office
buildings, and the buildings are located at the front of the lot with parking behind. Such
design follows the recommendations of the Plan's commercial design guidelines.
The proposal meets the standards provided for aSingle-Room Occupancy (SRO)
Facility conditional use in Section 241.1 in regard to design, management, and services
(the "Management Plan" for the facility is provided on pages 17 to 28 of the attached
staff report). The front yard setback, which is proposed at 10 feet, does not meet the
minimum required for the O-2 Office District (35 feet). The City Council may, however,
as provided for by Section 221(1) of the Zoning Ordinance approve a deviation from the
required setback "for good cause shown and upon a finding that there will be no
significant detrimental effects on surrounding properties." Staff concludes that such a
finding is established in this case, as the proposed front yard setback is generated by
the recommendations of the Burton Station SGA Plan and there is no obvious potential
for significant detrimental effects on surrounding properties due to the reduced setback.
There was opposition to this request.
^ Recommendations:
The Planning Commission, passing a motion by a recorded vote of 9-0, recommends
approval of this request to the City Council with the following proffers and conditions.
PROFFERS
PROFFER 1:
The Property, when developed, shall be developed in substantial conformity with the
conceptual site plan prepared by Langley & McDonald, entitled "Virginia Supportive

Plan"), a copy of which is on file with the Department of Planning and has been exhibited to
the Virginia Beach City Council.
PROFFER 2:
Improvements on the Property, when developed, shall be developed in substantial
conformity with the conceptual building renderings prepared by Via Architects, entitled
"Virginia Supportive Housing, Conceptual Elevations, 1333 Diamond Springs Road", dated
November 29, 2012 (the "Renderings"), copies of which are on file with the Department of
Planning and has been exhibited to the Virginia Beach City Council.

CONDITIONS
1. The Property, when developed, shall be developed in substantial conformity with the
conceptual site plan prepared by Langley & McDonald, entitled "Virginia Supportive
Housing, Site Plan, 1333 Diamond Springs Road", dated November 29, 2012 (the
"Concept Plan"), a copy of which is on file with the Department of Planning and has been

2. The buildings on the Property shall be developed in substantial conformity with the
conceptual building renderings prepared by Via Architects, entitled "Virginia Supportive

has been exhibited to the Virginia Beach City Council.
3. There shall be no more than 81 single-room occupancy units within the two buildings
shown on the site plan referenced in Condition 1.
4. The applicant shall adhere to the provisions of the submitted "Crescent Square
Management Plan," a copy of which is on file with the Department of Planning and has
been exhibited to the Virginia Beach City Council.
5. There shall be at least 41 parking spaces located on the site as shown on the plan
referenced in Condition 1.
6. Based upon a finding that the commercial design guidelines of the Burton Station
Strategic Growth Area Implementation Plan recommend that the front of buildings be
located adjacent to or near to the right-of-way (dependent on the type of use), as well as a
finding that there will be no significant detrimental effects on surrounding properties due to
a front yard setback less than that prescribed by the Zoning Ordinance, the front yard
setback as shown on the plan referenced in Condition 1 shall be allowed, as provided for
by Section 221(1) of the Zoning Ordinance.

BACKGROUND /DETAILS OF PROPOSAL
In 2007, Value Place Real Estate Services, LLC, sought and was granted approval for a Modification of
Proffers associated with a 2006 Change of Zoning from B-2 Community Business to I-1 Light Industrial.
The Modification of Proffers was sought for the purpose of developing a hotel on the parcel. A Conditional
Use Permit for a hotel was granted at the same time as the Modification. The proposed hotel was never
constructed on the site; however, the Conditional I-1 zoning of the site and the Use Permit for the hotel
still control the use and development of the site.
The current zoning of the site, even if the proffers were modified, does not permit SRO Facilities. The O-2
Office District, however, does allow a SRO Facility with the granting of a Conditional Use Permit by City
Council. The applicant, therefore, requests this zoning change from I-1 Light Industrial to O-2 Office as
well as a Conditional Use Permit for a SRO Facility.
The applicant, Virginia Supportive Housing (VSH), is a 501(c)(3) non-profit organization that provides
housing opportunities to those in Virginia who are in need of housing, particularly homeless single adults.
VSH proposes development of the subject site for aSingle-Room Occupancy (SRO) Facility. As defined
by the Zoning Ordinance, a SRO unit consists of the following:
VIRGINIA SUPPORTIVE HOUSING
Agenda Items 16 & 17
Page 1
A living space with a minimum floor area of one hundred fifty (150) square feet and a maximum
floor area of four hundred fifty (450) square feet restricted to occupancy by one (1) person
identified by the Department of Human Services as having limited permanent housing alternatives
and occupying the unit as a primary residence and not as transient or overnight housing or
lodging."
The applicant has selected this location due to the availability of public transit along Northampton
Boulevard, the availability of employment in this light industrial area, and the fact that this area of the city
is in need of a quality residential dwelling facility that is served by VSH. The units are intended to be
occupied by individuals who are in a transitional phase out of homelessness as well as those unable to
find housing due to their inability to make rental payments. VSH has a history of successful use of this
housing concept throughout Virginia, including a facility in Virginia Beach (Cloverleaf Apartments), built in
2007-08, on Military Highway near Providence Road.
Site Plan Design:
• Two four-story buildings containing a total of 81 single-room occupancy dwelling units. The two
buildings are connected by a narrow section of building that contains a hallway. One of the
buildings if located at the front of the site, 10 to 15 feet from the front lot line, with the longest side
of the building parallel to Diamond Springs Road. The other building is located immediately
behind the first, with the longest side of the building facing the side lot lines.
• The first floor of the building contains offices, the resident manager's unit, recreation facilities, and
support facilities. Dwelling units are located above that floor. The principal access to the facility is
located on Diamond Springs Road, covered by a canopy, and connected by a walkway to a
sidewalk to be installed along Diamond Springs Road. Secondary access points are located
between the two buildings.
• Vehicular access to the site is located on Diamond Springs Road along the southern lot line,
which is the same location of the current access. In addition to providing access to the subject
site, a Deed of Easement provides the site to the south with the right to use the access point.
Accordingly, there is a 55-foot opening along the southern lot line adjacent to the access point
that provides access to that site.
• The primary parking lot is located at the western end of the site, behind the buildings. That
parking area contains 33 spaces. The eight additional handicap-only parking spaces along the
southern lot line closer to the building, as is required. The total number of parking spaces is 41,
which is appropriate for a facility of this type, as many of the residents will not own an automobile.
The number of parking spaces for this use is set with the Conditional Use Permit approval.
• The parking areas are connected to the Diamond Springs Road access point by a drive aisle that
also provides adrop-off area behind the buildings, adjacent to a paved area that connects the
buildings. The drop-off area is at the same ground level as the paved area for the purpose of
ensuring safe access for handicapped individuals. There are appropriately-designed bollards
along the edge of the drop-off aisle to prevent vehicles from driving on to the paved walkway
area. The entire drive aisle is paved with a pervious paver system.
• The majority of the area behind the two buildings consists of a community terrace, a fenced
grassed yard, a defined paved area of raised planter beds for the use of the residents, and a
shed building. The planter bed area is connected to the terrace by a garden gateway that is
covered with a trellis structure.
• The site plan shows the use of two monument-style identification signs, one at each corner of the
front of the lot.
VIRGINIA SUPPORTIVE HOUSING
Agenda items 16 & 17
Page 2
• The site is landscaped with trees along both of the side lot lines, with a greater number planted
along the southern lot line due to the activity on the adjacent lot being more intense than on the
property to the north.
• Trash dumpsters are located along the southern lot line, near the rear parking lot.
Building Design
The two buildings are designed in a way that they give the appearance of being office buildings.
This design scheme is intentional due to the site being located in the Burton Station Strategic
Growth Area (SGA). This portion of the SGA is designated for a mix of uses (office, restaurants,
hotels, and professional services) by the Burton Station SGA Implementation Plan, and a SRO
facility is an appropriate use, particularly if designed with an 'urban feel' by locating the building at
the front of the lot and designing the building in a style that resembles an office building, which is
the likely major land use in this portion of the SGA.
The buildings possess variation in the facade through the use of bays that 'pop out' from the main
plane of the building. The `pop-outs' provide the internal spaces of the dwelling units with greater
window area, which VSH has found to be a desired feature of residents.
The exterior materials consist of a combination of brick, brick veneer panels, and precast
concrete detail features, with exposed steel beams at the first floor level.
The buildings will include Energy Star appliances, and, to supplement electrical supply, VSH
intends to use solar panels as possible, as they have done at many of their recent projects
throughout the state. Construction materials for the buildings will be Earth Craft certified.
LAND USE AND PLAN INFORMATION
EXISTING LAND USE: Previously used as an industrial site. There is a vacant one-story building on the site.
SURROUNDING LAND North: Warehouse / I-1 Light Industrial District
USE AND ZONING: South: . Restaurant / B-2 Community Business District
East: Right-turn lane for westbound traffic to Northampton Boulevard
West: • Vacant building (uncompleted sports training complex) / I-1
Light Industrial District
NATURAL RESOURCE AND The site is impervious, covered by either pavement or building. A Phase
CULTURAL FEATURES: I and Phase II Environmental Survey were conducted for the site to
ensure there are no hazards. The survey results indicated the site is
suitable for the proposed use.
COMPREHENSIVE PLAN: The site is located in the Burton Station Strategic Growth Area (SGA). The Burton
Station SGA Implementation Plan, adopted by reference as a component of the Comprehensive Plan,
provides recommendations for land use, site and building design, and strategic infrastructure improvements.
This section of the SGA is designated by the Plan as the 'Northampton-Diamond Springs Corridor.' Land uses
envisioned for the area (as indicated on the Plan's `Development Capacity Program Analysis,' p. 16) include
flex-space, hotel, office, retail, restaurant, and warehouse (in a mixed-use, comprehensively-designed setting).
Site and building design recommendations for commercial uses are provided on page 35 of the Plan, and for
the type of use proposed by the applicant, those recommendations call for buildings being located close to the
street frontage, with office buildings having a landscaped setback area. Parking areas should be located.

behind buildings. Side yard areas should be landscaped to provide pedestrian paths, now or in the future, with
the intent being to connect development to create a comprehensive whole.

sewer in Diamond Springs Road.
EVALUATION AND RECOMMENDATION
The applicant is requesting to
change the zoning on this site from the current Conditional I-1 with an accompanying Use Permit for a
hotel to O-2 Office with an accompanying Use Permit for aSingle-Room Occupancy (SRO) Facility
containing 81 units. Since the date of approval of the I-1 rezoning in 2007, the Burton Station Strategic
Growth Area (SGA) Implementation Plan has been adopted. The hotel proposed with the 2007 rezoning
is an appropriate use under the adopted Plan; however, the site and building design proffered with that
rezoning are strictly suburban in layout and style, and are not consistent with the Plan recommendations
for commercial design. The applicant's proposed use is unique in that it is not a traditional apartment
complex, having elements that are similar to a hotel type of use. As such, the use is appropriate for this
portion of the SGA, particularly since the site and building design are consistent with the Plan's
recommendations, as the building design gives the appearance of being an office.

in Section 241.1 in regard to design, management, and services (the "Management Plan" for the facility is
provided on pages 17 to 28 of this report. The principal issue that requires additional action to be resolved
pertains to the front yard setback, which is proposed at 10 feet (35 feet is required). The Planning
Commission may resolve the issue, however, as provided for by Section 221(1) of the Zoning Ordinance.
Section 221(1) allows the Planning Commission to recommend to the City Council for their approval a
deviation from the required setback "for good cause shown and upon a finding that there will be no
significant detrimental effects on surrounding properties." Staff concludes that such a finding is
established in this case, as the proposed front yard setback is generated by the recommendations of the
Burton Station SGA Plan and there is no obvious potential for significant detrimental effects on
surrounding properties due to the reduced setback.
In sum, staff finds that the Change of Zoning and the Conditional Use Permit are appropriate, consistent
with the Comprehensive Plan and Zoning Ordinance requirements, and thus, recommends approval of
the applications as proffered and with the conditions below.
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:
The Property, when developed, shall be developed in substantial conformity with the conceptual site plan
prepared by Langley & McDonald, entitled "Virginia Supportive Housing, Site Plan, 1333 Diamond Springs
Road", dated November 29, 2012 (the "Concept Plan"), a copy of which is on file with the Department of
Planning and has been exhibited to the Virginia Beach City Council.
PROFFER 2:
Improvements on the Property, when developed, shall be developed in substantial conformity with the
conceptual building renderings prepared by Via Architects, entitled "Virginia Supportive Housing, Conceptual
Elevations, 1333 Diamond Springs Road", dated November 29, 2012 (the "Renderings"), copies of which are
on file with the Department of Planning and has been exhibited to the Virginia Beach City Council.
PROFFER 2:
Further conditions lawfully imposed by applicable development ordinances may be further 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 are acceptable as they insure the site will be developed in accordance
with the submitted site plan and building renderings. The submitted preliminary site plan depicts a
coordinated development of the site in terms of design, landscaping, parking layout, amenities, and access
to the site. The submitted building renderings depict structures that are quality in material and design and
provide an appearance of being an office use that is desired for this portion of the Burfon Station SGA.
The City Attorney's Office has reviewed the proffer agreement dated November 30, 2012, and found it to be
legally sufficient and in acceptable legal form.

AGREEMENT
THIS AGREEMENT is made as of this ~'`' day of ~J puembe-~' ,
20_~~_, by and between CF USB REO LLC, a Delaware limited liability company ("Owner", to
be indexed as grantor); VIRGINIA SUPPORTIVE HOUSING, a Virginia non-stock
corporation ("Contract Purchaser", to be indexed as grantor) (hereinafter referred to collectively
as the "Grantors"); and the CITY OF VIRGINIA BEACH, a municipal corporation of the
Commonwealth of Virginia (hereinafter referred to as the "Grantee", and to be indexed as
grantee).
WITNESSETH:
WHEREAS, Owner is the current owner, and Contract Purchaser the contract purchaser
of that certain property located in the City of Virginia Beach, Virginia identified as a portion of
GPIN 1469-00-9994-000, as more particularly described legal description attached hereto and
incorporated herein by reference as Exhibit A (the "Property"); and
WHEREAS, the Grantors have initiated an amendment to the Zoning Map of the City of
Virginia Beach, Virginia, by petition addressed to the Grantee, so as to change the classification
of the Property from Conditional I-1 to Conditional O-2; and
WHEREAS, the Grantee's policy is to provide only for the orderly development of land
for various purposes, including mixed-use purposes, through zoning and other land development
legislation; and
WHEREAS, the Grantors acknowledge that competing and sometimes incompatible uses
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 O-2 are needed to cope with
the situation to which the Grantors' rezoning application gives rise; and
WHEREAS, the Grantors have 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 O-2 zoning districts 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 are generated by the rezoning; and
GPIN NO.: 1469-00-9994-000
WHEREAS, said conditions having been proffered by the Grantors and allowed and
accepted by the Grantee as part of the amendment to the Zoning Ordinance, such conditions shall
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 Grantors, for themselves, their 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 and upon all parties and persons claiming under or through
the Grantors, their heirs, personal representatives, assigns, grantees and other successors in
interest or title, namely:
1. The Property, when developed, shall be developed in substantial conformity with
the conceptual site plan prepared by Langley & McDonald, entitled "Virginia Supportive
Housing, Site Plan, 1333 Diamond Springs Road", dated November 29, 2012 (the "Concept
Plan"), a copy of which is on file with the Department of Planning and has been exhibited to the
Virginia Beach City Council.
2. Improvements on the Property, when developed, shall be in substantial conformity
with the conceptual building renderings prepared by Via Architects, entitled "Virginia Supportive
Housing, Conceptual Elevations, 1333 Diamond Springs Road", dated November 29, 2012 (the
"Renderings"), copies of which are on file with the Department of Planning and have been
exhibited to the City Council.
3. Further conditions lawfully imposed by applicable development ordinances may
be required by the Grantee during detailed site plan and/or subdivision review and administration
of applicable City Codes by all cognizant City agencies and departments to meet all applicable
City Code requirements.
2
All references hereinabove to zoning districts and to regulations applicable thereto, refer
to the City Zoning Ordinance of the City of Virginia Beach, Virginia, in force as of the date the
conditional zoning amendment is approved by the Grantee.
The Grantors covenant and agree that (1) the Zoning Administrator of the City of Virginia
Beach, Virginia shall be vested with all necessary authority on behalf of the governing body of
the City of Virginia Beach, Virginia to administer and enforce the foregoing conditions,
including (i) the ordering in writing of the remedying of any noncompliance with such
conditions, and (ii) the bringing of legal action or suit to ensure compliance with such conditions,

AGENDA ITEM
ITEM: STEVE'S TOWING (Applicant) / W.CECIL CARPENTER FAMILY TRUST
(Owner), Modification of Conditions of a Use Permit for Bulk Storage approved on
January 10, 2012. Request is to expand storage area. 5890 Thurston Avenue,
Suite B (GPIN 1459937553). BAYSIDE DISTRICT.
MEETING DATE: February 26, 2013
^ Background:
A Conditional Use Permit allowing bulk storage on this parcel was approved by
the City Council on January 10, 2012. The existing conditions apply to only the
portion of the site that was being leased by the applicant in January 2012. Since
the time of City Council approval, the applicant has leased additional space for
expansion of the storage area. The applicant, therefore, is requesting a
modification of the current Use Permit to include the additional area.
^ Considerations:
The applicant originally leased a space of approximately 6,790 square feet. With
the departure of a previous tenant from the western portion of the site, the space
leased by the applicant has expanded an additional 96 feet to the western lot
line. The leased area, therefore, has nearly doubled in size to 13,510 square
feet.
As part of the modification of this Use Permit, the applicant requests use of the
total site area for long-term storage of vehicles owned by individuals that will be
out of the area for a number of months. The applicant also requests the use of
two 8' x 8' x 20' storage containers to temporarily store property removed from
towed vehicles, as well as tools and equipment for the applicant's trucks. The
requested storage containers would be located within the fenced-in area leased
by the applicant, which is locked overnight. Staff finds that the request for use of
the containers is consistent with the character of a bulk storage yard operation.
The use of two storage containers will provide additional security for items
belonging to the applicant as well as the owners of towed vehicles.
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 10-0, to recommend approval of this request to the
City Council with the following conditions:
Steve's Towing, Inc.
Page 2 of 2
1. The two conditions attached to the Conditional Use Permit granted by the
City Council on January 10t", 2012, shall remain in effect and shall apply to
the entire 13,510 square foot space currently leased by the applicant.
2. The existing chain link fence shall be extended to surround the additional
6,790 square feet of area now leased by the applicant. Additionally, the
applicant shall provide landscaping, a minimum of 70 feet along the western
lot line and 193 feet along the northern lot line to screen the bulk storage
yard. This landscaping shall be kept alive and properly maintained during the
extent of the Conditional Use Permit.
3. Use of two storage containers shall be permitted within the fenced-in area for
the storage of the applicant's tools and items from the towed vehicles.
4. Any vehicle stored long-term by the applicant shall be operative and parked
within the fenced-in area. An operative vehicle shall be stored no longer than
one year.

Agenda Item 12
Page 1
The existing conditions apply to only the portion of the site that was being leased by the applicant in
January, 2012. Since the time of City Council approval, the applicant has begun leasing additional space,
and is requesting to modify the existing conditions to cover the total area he currently leases.
As depicted on the submitted site plan, the applicant originally leased a space of approximately 6,790
square feet. That space started 30 feet from Baker Road, where it then extended 96 feet towards the
western lot line and 70 feet south from the abutting northern lot line. With the departure of a previous
tenant, to the west, the space now, therefore, leased by the applicant has expanded an additional 96 feet
to the western lot line. The leased area, therefore, has nearly doubled in size to 13,510 square feet. The
applicant is requesting the original conditions be expanded to apply to the total space he currently leases.
In addition to the previously approved conditions, the applicant also requests the use of two 8' x 8' x 20'
storage containers to temporarily store property removed from towed vehicles as well as tools and
equipment for the applicant's trucks. The requested storage containers would be located within the
fenced-in area leased by the applicant, which is locked overnight.
Similar, but separate, to Condition Two, the applicant also requests use of the site for long term storage
of vehicles owned by individuals that will be out of the area for a number of months.
LAND USE AND COMPREHENSIVE PLAN
EXISTING LAND USE: Warehouse and storage yard
SURROUNDING LAND North: Office-warehouse / I-1 Industrial District
USE AND ZONING: South: . Thurston Avenue
• Office-warehouse / I-1 Industrial District
East: . Baker Road
• Office-warehouse / I-1 Industrial District

NATURAL RESOURCE AND The site is within the Chesapeake Bay watershed. There do not appear
CULTURAL FEATURES: to be any significant environmental or cultural resources on the site as it
is developed for an industrial use and almost entirely impervious.
COMPREHENSIVE PLAN: The Comprehensive Plan designates this site as within the Burton Station
Strategic Growth Area #1. The area is predominantly industrial, but also has significant tracts devoted to
residential and commercial uses. The Northampton Boulevard Corridor SGA Implementation Plan proposes
guidance on how the area should evolve in order to accomplish an arrangement of land uses to achieve an
attractive, coherent, and marketable destination and calls for increased connectivity and access to the Airport
Industrial Park.

EVALUATION AND RECOMMENDATION
Ideally, this industrial type of use is most appropriate where surrounded entirely by industrial zoning and
industrial uses, as delivery of vehicles to the site is proposed 24 hours a day, 7 days a week. The
applicant has chosen this location due to the surrounding industrial uses, its location within the Airport
Industrial Park, and its proximity to the interstate. As the bulk storage yard will be used for holding
abandoned vehicles, illegally parked vehicles, vehicles from police calls, as well as long term parked
operable vehicles; the trip generation is expected to be very minimal and will not negatively impact
surrounding properties.
The applicants request for two storage containers is consistent with the scope of a bulk storage yard
operation. The use of two storage containers will provide additional security for items belonging to the
applicant as well as the owners of towed vehicles and will also reduce visual clutter on site.
As required by the Zoning Ordinance, a condition to screen the bulk storage yard from view of the right-
of-way is provided below (Number 2). Existing plant material is located along the northern property and is
proposed to remain as part of the required screening. The applicant has met this requirement by
installing a solid 6' tall fence and Category VI screening along the side of his leased space adjacent to
Baker Road and Wax Myrtles along the northern and western lot lines along the boundary of the leased
space.
Staff recommends approval of this request with the condition listed below.

CITY OF VIRGINIA BEACH
AGENDA ITEM
ITEM: CITY OF VIRGINIA BEACH - An Ordinance to Amend and Reordain Section
107 of the City Zoning Ordinance Pertaining to Amendments to the City Zoning
Ordinance, Zoning District Boundaries, and Zoning District Classifications of
Property.
MEETING DATE: February 26, 2013
^ Background:
On November 27, 2012, the City Council passed a Resolution referring the
attached amendments to Section 107 of the City Zoning Ordinance to the
Planning Commission for its consideration and recommendation. Section 107
provides the requirements for amending the City Zoning Ordinance, including the
ability to withdraw a petition (as in an amendment to the Zoning Map through a
Change of Zoning), public notice requirements, and the procedure for proffer
submission and review.
^ Considerations:
The proposed amendments to Section 107 are summarized in detail in the
attached staff report. Furthermore, the attached ordinance amendment document
also provides additional "Comments" at various points of the ordinance that
further explain the changes and the reasons for those changes. The majority of
the changes are intended to update Section 107 to improve its consistency with
current processes and practices as well as State Code provisions.
The most significant of the proposed changes to Section 107 introduces a new
provision that allows the City Council to accept proffers that reasonably deviate
from the setback, landscaping, minimum lot area requirements, and height
restrictions of the zoning district requirements of the Zoning Ordinance (except
where increasing height presents a hazard to air navigation). City Council will be
able to allow such deviations upon a finding that there will be no significant
detrimental effects on surrounding properties. Additionally, such deviations may
not conflict with the Comprehensive Plan. This new provision of Section 107 is
substantially the same as the language giving the City Council similar authority
when considering Conditional Use Permit applications. While this amendment
would have affect throughout the city, it is especially needed in order to allow
discretionary development in Strategic Growth Areas (SGAs) to conform to the
urban form that, while contemplated by the SGA Plans, is not allowed by the
corresponding provisions of the City Zoning Ordinance. For example, the
majority of the various SGA Plans contemplate that new development be placed
closer to the street (e.g., five-foot setback) than typical suburban-style
City of Virginia Beach -Amendments
to Section 107 of the Zoning Ordinance
Page 2 of 2
development; at the same time, however, required front-yard setbacks in most
Business Districts are between 30 and 35 feet. The amended ordinance would
allow the City Council to approve setbacks appropriate to the respective SGA
Plan, as well as allowing deviations to other features as noted above. Until
implementing ordinances for the various SGAs are adopted, this provision is the
only solution to the current dichotomy between the SGA Plans and the Zoning
Ordinance's dimensional regulations that is workable and also subject to direct
City Council review.
In sum, the proposed amendments to Section 107 of the Zoning Ordinance will
significantly update an important part of the Zoning Ordinance that is in need of
revision. There has been no significant revision to this section since the last
comprehensive revision of the entire Zoning Ordinance in 1988. Accordingly, the
attached amendments are proposed for the purpose of making the regulations
more readable, more useful (to both City staff and the applicant), and more
rational.
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 10-0, to recommend approval of the amendments to
the City Council.

CITY OF VIRGINIA BEACH
AMENDMENT TO SECTION 107 -ZONING DISTRICT
AMENDMENTS AND CLASSIFICATIONS
OF PROPERTY
REQUEST:
An Ordinance TO Amend and Reordain Section 107 of the City Zoning Ordinance Pertaining to Amendments to the
City Zoning Ordinance, Zoning District Boundaries, and Zoning District Classifications of Property.
BACKGROUND /DETAILS OF PROPOSAL
On November 27, 2012, the City Council passed a Resolution referring the attached amendments to
Section 107 of the City Zoning Ordinance to the Planning Commission for its consideration and
recommendation. Section 107 provides the requirements for amending the City Zoning Ordinance,
including the ability to withdraw a petition (as in an amendment to the Zoning Map through a Change of
Zoning), public notice requirements, and the procedure for proffer submission and review. A reading of
Section 107 as currently written should reveal to the reader, as it has to City staff, that the wording is
difficult to understand in places, and moreover, in many cases, the described processes are outdated.
The proposed amendments to Section 107 are summarized below. The attached copy of the
amendments also provides additional "Comments" at various points of the ordinance that further explain
the changes and the reasons for those changes:
Section 107(a) (Lines 22 through 341:
• Clarifies that this section applies to an application that requests the modification of the conditions
of a previously approved rezoning as well as a new application for a rezoning.
• Updates the terminology used in the section. While the term "application" is more commonly
used than the term "petition," the latter term is retained since it is the term utilized in the Virginia
Code.
Section 107(b)
• [Lines 44 through 521: The amended text eliminates language that needlessly restricted the City
Council's authority to allow an application to be withdrawn. Under the amended version, the City ~ ~
Council may allow an applicant to withdraw an application for any reason. The proposed
~~
CITY OF VIRGINIA BEACH /Section 107 Amendments
Agenda Item 16 ~_~~- ~i
Page 1 ~~`

I
~'~
a ~s
ordinance, however, would require that, in order to be able to seek a withdrawal of an application,
the applicant must notify the City Clerk by letter or e-mail of its intent to seek a withdrawal, and
such letter or e-mail must be received by no later than noon on the day before the City Council
meeting.
The purpose of this requirement is to allow the Staff enough time to notify interested persons of
an impending request for a withdrawal sufficiently in advance of the Council meeting to enable
those persons to plan accordingly. It is the Staff's view that the deadline for notifying the City
Clerk leaves ample time both for the applicant to have decided a course of action (proceeding
forward vs. seeking withdrawal) and for persons that either support or oppose the application to
be notified by Staff of the applicant's intentions and act accordingly.
jLines 52 through 611: Under the current Section 107, if an application is denied by City Council,
"substantially the same" application cannot be filed within one (1) year of the date of its denial.
While this rule would remain in effect, the proposed amendments completely rewrites the
standards for determining whether an application is "substantially the same" as an application that
was previously denied. Under the current section, an application is "substantially the same" as a
prior application that has been denied if the new application is for a zoning district classification
appears in the same Article of the City Zoning Ordinance (CZO) as the denied application. Thus,
because Article 5 of the CZO contains all of the city's Residential Zoning Districts (from R-2.5 to
R-40), an application to rezone property to R-2.5 Residential Townhouse for the purpose of
allowing 100 townhouses on 10 acres of land would be considered `substantially the same' as an
application that seeks to rezone property to R-40 Residential for the purpose of allowing 10
single-family dwellings on those same 10 acres. Since the applications are `substantially the
same,' if one was denied, the other one could not be considered by the City Council for one year
after the denial of the other even though, in fact, there is little similarity between the two
applications.
The proposed amendment would improve the method of determining if one rezoning application
is `substantially the same' as another by introducing a number of considerations that the Planning
Director will use to determine whether the two applications are 'substantially the same.' Those
considerations include examining the differences in the zoning district classifications sought, the
nature and density or intensity of the proposed use, site design, site layout, traffic, noise, and
other potential impacts, measures to mitigate such impacts, and such other factors as he or she
determines to be relevant to such determination. Staff believes that these factors are far more
indicative of similarity (or lack thereof) than the current method based on nothing more than the
Article of the CZO in which a zoning district is listed.
Section 107(c) [Lines 77 through 881:
• The amended version simply restates Virginia law pertaining to public notice, but the revised text
is included as a ready reminder of the requirement for Staff drafting the public notices regarding
rezoning applications.
Section 107(d) (Lines 96 through 1121:
Language has been added clarifying that an applicant may withdraw an application as a matter of
right (i.e., without Planning Commission approval) at any time before the Planning Commission
commences its public hearing on the application.
The revisions also expand the present requirement that an applicant must pay the costs of a new
advertisement of his or her application if he or she has failed to follow proper procedures. The
proposed amended version would require that, if a deferral is requested by the applicant (for any
CITY OF VIRGINIA BEACH /Section 107 Amendments
Agenda Item 16
Page 2
...~ ~ fi'~~a ~~i
reason), he or she would also be responsible for the cost of the advertisement for the next public
hearing at which the application would be considered, including the cost of mailing notices to
adjacent property owners, etc. Currently, the application fee includes the cost of public notice for
both the Planning Commission and City Council public hearings, each of which hearings must be
advertised by publication two times in the newspaper and by the mailing of written notices to
persons, as specified in Section 15.2-2204 of the Virginia Code. When an application is deferred
indefinitely, the newspaper notice must be published again and the written notices must be
mailed again to the adjacent property owners. It is the Staff's position that if the applicant is the
party that asks for a deferral, he or she should be responsible for the cost of public notices
required by the deferral; otherwise, the cost must be paid out of public funds. It is to be noted
that this proposed requirement currently applies to applicant-requested deferrals of applications
before the Board of Zoning Appeals; thus, there is no new precedent being established by
adoption of this requirement.
Section 107(f)(1) fLines 141 through 1581:
The revisions to this section incorporate legal requirements that are implicit, although not
expressly stated, in the Virginia Code, to the effect that any changes in a proposed CZO
amendment must be 'fairly encompassed' within the descriptive summary (i.e., the language used
in the newspaper advertisement) of the proposed amendment.
A requirement contained in the current ordinance that the City Council must refer a matter back to
the Planning Commission in certain cases has been deleted. Thus, the City Council will be
provided greater leeway to act on a rezoning application without having to refer it back to the
Planning Commission. The decision as to whether to refer the application back to the Planning
Commission will be at the discretion of the City Council.
Section 107(f)(2) (Lines 170 through 1951:
The proposed revision to this section increases from 21 to 30 days the time within which the City
Council may initiate reconsideration of an application that has been denied by reason of a tie
vote. This change is needed in light of the fact that the number of City Council meetings per
month at which a vote is taken has decreased to only two such meetings.
Also pertaining to applications that are denied by the City Council, the proposed revisions to this
section provide that if an application is denied by the City Council and is thereafter substantially
changed, the application must be referred back to the Planning Commission prior to final action
by the City Council. The purpose of this revision is to ensure that any substantial changes to an
application after a denial are given proper consideration and recommendation by the Planning
Commission, since such changes would not otherwise have been reviewed by the Planning
Commission. Moreover, the revision is intended to encourage applicants not to use the
reconsideration process as a 'fallback procedure' in the event the City Council denies the
application, but instead to bring forward development proposals that are of high quality from the
outset.
Section 107(g) and (h) fLines 208 through 5851:
• The proposed revisions to subsection (g) and (h), pertaining to conditional zoning procedures, are
for the most part stylistic and technical. The revisions consist of (a) deleting unnecessary
language in the current ordinance section that is also in the Virginia Code, (b) breaking up the
longer provisions into segments and placing some of them elsewhere in Section 107, and (c)
updating the terminology used. The more substantive revisions are discussed below.

o Lines 373 through 3771: The specific matters the Planning Director is required to address
in his or her report to the Planning Commission are deleted, and general language is
substituted.
o fLines 449 through 4581: The proposed revisions change the date by which the applicant
must submit a Conditional Zoning Agreement (proffers) that he or she has modified after
its original submission. The current ordinance provides that modifications to the proffers
of the Agreement may be submitted 10 days prior to the Planning Commission hearing.
The proposed amendment increases that number to 21 days prior to the Planning
Commission meeting. The current, as well as the proposed revision to this section,
requires that a Conditional Zoning Agreement (commonly referred to as a "proffer
agreement") must be submitted with the application for rezoning. Frequently, however, as
a result of review comments by City agencies, concerns or comments from surrounding
property owners, or even new site data obtained by the applicant, the proffer agreement
is subsequently modified by the applicant prior to the Planning Commission hearing. The
increase in review time from 10 to 21 days is necessary for the Staff to adequately review
and comment upon the proffer modifications, as the written reports prepared by the
Planning Department must be completed well before the actual meeting date (a 10-day
submission deadline currently provides Staff with one day of review of the modified
proffer agreement prior to due date of the written report containing Staff's evaluation of
the rezoning application and recommendations).
o fLines 506 through 5431: The amendments also address a provision that is necessary but
which has never been used since it was adopted almost 25 years ago. The amendments
provide that in the event the City Attorney determines that the ownership of the property
that has been conditionally rezoned has been materially changed, and the change may
adversely affect the City's interest, he or she would no longer be required to notify the
applicant that the Conditional Zoning Agreement will not be recorded with the Clerk of the
Circuit Court and that the rezoning will be rescinded unless the applicant appeals to the
City Council. Instead, the City Attorney would only be required to inform the City Council
in writing, and any member of the City Council may then initiate a reconsideration of the
item within 30 days of the City Attorney's notice. This revision would greatly streamline
the reconsideration process in the unlikely event of a material and adverse change in the
ownership of a rezoned property. Since the City Council has the authority to reconsider
the application, the City's interests are, therefore, protected. Regardless, because
proffered conditions run with the land (i.e., are binding upon subsequent owners), any
change in ownership that would be adverse to the City would be extremely rare.
o fLines 557 through 5631: The amendments state existing law to the effect that an
approved Conditional Zoning Agreement does not need to be recorded with the Clerk of
the Circuit Court in order to be effective. The recordation of the Agreement is merely for
the convenience of those who, in the future, may wish to purchase such a property.
Section 107(i) fLines 593 through 6051:
The amendments to this section allow the City Council to accept proffers that reasonably deviate
from the setback, landscaping, and minimum lot area requirements, and height restrictions of the
zoning district requirements of the CZO (except where height presents a hazard to air navigation)
upon a finding that there will be no significant detrimental effects on surrounding properties.
Additionally, such deviations may not conflict with the Comprehensive Plan. This added language
is substantially the same as the language giving the City Council similar authority when
considering Conditional Use Permit applications. While this amendment would have affect
;.~;
throughout the city, it is especially needed in order to allow discretionary development in Strategic
Growth Areas (SGAs) to conform to the urban form that, while contemplated by the SGA Plans, is
not allowed by the corresponding provisions of the City Zoning Ordinance. For example, the
majority of the various SGA Plans contemplate that new development be placed closer to the
street (e.g., five-foot setback) than typical suburban-style development; at the same time,
however, required front-yard setbacks in most Business Districts are between 30 and 35 feet.
The amended ordinance would allow the City Council to approve setbacks appropriate to the
respective SGA Plan, as well as allowing deviations to other features as noted above. Until
implementing ordinances for the various SGAs are adopted, this provision is the only solution to
the current dichotomy between the SGA Plans and the Zoning Ordinance's dimensional
regulations that is workable and also subject to direct City Council review.
EVALUATION AND RECOMMENDATION
The proposed amendments to Section 107 of the Zoning Ordinance will significantly revise an important
portion of the Zoning Ordinance that is in need of revision. There has been no comprehensive revision to
this section since the last comprehensive revision of the entire Zoning Ordinance in 1988. Accordingly,
the attached amendments are proposed for the purpose of making the regulations more readable, more
useful (to both City staff and the applicant), and more rational.
Staff recommends approval of the proposed amendments.

City of Virginia Beach
An Ordinance TO Amend and Reordain Section 107 of the City Zoning Ordinance
Pertaining to Amendments to the City Zoning Ordinance, Zoning District Boundaries,
and Zoning District Classifications of Property
January 9, 2013
On November 27, 2012, the City Council passed a Resolution referring the attached
amendments to Section 107 of the City Zoning Ordinance to the Planning Commission
for its consideration and recommendation. Section 107 provides the requirements for
amending the City Zoning Ordinance, including the ability to withdraw a petition (as in
an amendment to the Zoning Map through a Change of Zoning), public notice
requirements, and the procedure for proffer submission and review. A reading of
Section 107 as currently written should reveal to the reader, as it has to City staff, that
the wording is difficult to understand in places, and moreover, in many cases, the
described processes are outdated.
The proposed amendments to Section 107 are summarized below. The attached copy
of the amendments also provides additional "Comments" at various points of the
ordinance that further explain the changes and the reasons for those changes:
Section 107(a) (Lines 22 through 341:
• Clarifies that this section applies to an application that requests the modification

for a rezoning.
• Updates the terminology used in the section. While the term "application" is
more commonly used than the term "petition," the latter term is retained since it is
the term utilized in the Virginia Code.
Section 107(b)
LLines 44 through 521: The amended text eliminates language that needlessly
restricted the City Council's authority to allow an application to be withdrawn.
Under the amended version, the City Council may allow an applicant to withdraw
an application for any reason. The proposed ordinance, however, would require
that, in order to be able to seek a withdrawal of an application, the applicant must
notify the City Clerk by letter ore-mail of its intent to seek a withdrawal, and such
letter ore-mail must be received by no later than noon on the day before the City
Council meeting.
The purpose of this requirement is to allow the Staff enough time to notify
interested persons of an impending request for a withdrawal sufficiently in
advance of the Council meeting to enable those persons to plan accordingly. It is
the Staff's view that the deadline for notifying the City Clerk leaves ample time
both for the applicant to have decided a course of action (proceeding forward vs.
seeking withdrawal) and for persons that either support or oppose the application
to be notified by Staff of the applicant's intentions and act accordingly.

City of Virginia Beach
Page 2
[Lines 52 through 611: Under the current Section 107, if an application is denied
by City Council, "substantially the same" application cannot be filed within one (1)
year of the date of its denial. While this rule would remain in effect, the proposed
amendments completely rewrites the standards for determining whether an
application is "substantially the same" as an application that was previously
denied. Under the current section, an application is "substantially the same" as a
prior application that has been denied if the new application is for a zoning district
classification appears in the same Article of the City Zoning Ordinance (CZO) as
the denied application. Thus, because Article 5 of the CZO contains all of the
city's Residential Zoning Districts (from R-2.5 to R-40), an application to rezone
property to R-2.5 Residential Townhouse for the purpose of allowing 100
townhouses on 10 acres of land would be considered `substantially the same' as
an application that seeks to rezone property to R-40 Residential for the purpose
of allowing 10single-family dwellings on those same 10 acres. Since the
applications are 'substantially the same,' if one was denied, the other one could
not be considered by the City Council for one year after the denial of the other
even though, in fact, there is little similarity between the two applications.
The proposed amendment would improve the method of determining if one
rezoning application is `substantially the same' as another by introducing a
number of considerations that the Planning Director will use to determine
whether the two applications are `substantially the same.' Those considerations
include examining the differences in the zoning district classifications sought, the
nature and density or intensity of the proposed use, site design, site layout,
traffic, noise, and other potential impacts, measures to mitigate such impacts,
and such other factors as he or she determines to be relevant to such
determination. Staff believes that these factors are far more indicative of
similarity (or lack thereof) than the current method based on nothing more than
the Article of the CZO in which a zoning district is listed.

of public notice for both the Planning Commission and City Council public
hearings, each of which hearings must be advertised by publication two times in
the newspaper and by the mailing of written notices to persons, as specified in
Section 15.2-2204 of the Virginia Code. When an application is deferred
indefinitely, the newspaper notice must be published again and the written

A requirement contained in the current ordinance that the City Council must refer
a matter back to the Planning Commission in certain cases has been deleted.
Thus, the City Council will be provided greater leeway to act on a rezoning
application without having to refer it back to the Planning Commission. The
decision as to whether to refer the application back to the Planning Commission
will be at the discretion of the City Council.
Section 107(f)(2) [Lines 170 through 1951:
The proposed revision to this section increases from 21 to 30 days the time
within which the City Council may initiate reconsideration of an application that
has been denied by reason of a tie vote. This change is needed in light of the fact
that the number of City Council meetings per month at which a vote is taken has
decreased to only two such meetings.
Also pertaining to applications that are denied by the City Council, the proposed
revisions to this section provide that if an application is denied by the City Council
and is thereafter substantially changed, the application must be referred back to
the Planning Commission prior to final action by the City Council. The purpose of
this revision is to ensure that any substantial changes to an application after a
denial are given proper consideration and recommendation by the Planning
Commission, since such changes would not otherwise have been reviewed by
Item #16

the Planning Commission. Moreover, the revision is intended to encourage
applicants not to use the reconsideration process as a `fallback procedure' in the
event the City Council denies the application, but instead to bring forward
development proposals that are of high quality from the outset.
Section 107(g) and (h) [Lines 208 through 5851:
The proposed revisions to subsection (g) and (h), pertaining to conditional zoning
procedures, are for the most part stylistic and technical. The revisions consist of
(a) deleting unnecessary language in the current ordinance section that is also in
the Virginia Code, (b) breaking up the longer provisions into segments and
placing some of them elsewhere in Section 107, and (c) updating the terminology
used. The more substantive revisions are discussed below.
o [Lines 373 through 3771: The specific matters the Planning Director is
required to address in his or her report to the Planning Commission are
deleted, and general language is substituted.
o [Lines 449 through 4581: The proposed revisions change the date by
which the applicant must submit a Conditional Zoning Agreement
(proffers) that he or she has modified after its original submission. The
current ordinance provides that modifications to the proffers of the
Agreement may be submitted 10 days prior to the Planning Commission
hearing. The proposed amendment increases that number to 21 days prior
to the Planning Commission meeting. The current, as well as the
proposed revision to this section, requires that a Conditional Zoning
Agreement (commonly referred to as a "proffer agreement") must be
submitted with the application for rezoning. Frequently, however, as a
result of review comments by City agencies, concerns or comments from
surrounding property owners, or even new site data obtained by the
applicant, the proffer agreement is subsequently modified by the applicant
prior to the Planning Commission hearing. The increase in review time
from 10 to 21 days is necessary for the Staff to adequately review and
comment upon the proffer modifications, as the written reports prepared
by the Planning Department must be completed well before the actual
meeting date (a 10-day submission deadline currently provides Staff with
one day of review of the modified proffer agreement prior to due date of
the written report containing Staff's evaluation of the rezoning application
and recommendations).
o Lines 506 throu hc~5431: The amendments also address a provision that is
necessary but which has never been used since it was adopted almost 25
years ago. The amendments provide that in the event the City Attorney
determines that the ownership of the property that has been conditionally
rezoned has been materially changed, and the change may adversely
Item #16

Page 5
affect the City's interest, he or she would no longer be required to notify
the applicant that the Conditional Zoning Agreement will not be recorded
with the Clerk of the Circuit Court and that the rezoning will be rescinded
unless the applicant appeals to the City Council. Instead, the City
Attorney would only be required to inform the City Council in writing, and
any member of the City Council may then initiate a reconsideration of the
item within 30 days of the City Attorney's notice. This revision would
greatly streamline the reconsideration process in the unlikely event of a
material and adverse change in the ownership of a rezoned property.
Since the City Council has the authority to reconsider the application, the
City's interests are, therefore, protected. Regardless, because proffered
conditions run with the land (i.e., are binding upon subsequent owners),
any change in ownership that would be adverse to the City would be
extremely rare.
o (Lines 557 through 5631: The amendments state existing law to the effect
that an approved Conditional Zoning Agreement does not need to be
recorded with the Clerk of the Circuit Court in order to be effective. The
recordation of the Agreement is merely for the convenience of those who,
in the future, may wish to purchase such a property.
Section 107(i) (Lines 593 through 6051:
The amendments to this section allow the City Council to accept proffers that
reasonably deviate from the setback, landscaping, and minimum lot area
requirements, and height restrictions of the zoning district requirements of the
CZO (except where height presents a hazard to air navigation) upon a finding
that there will be no significant detrimental effects on surrounding properties.
Additionally, such deviations may not conflict with the Comprehensive Plan. This
added language is substantially the same as the language giving the City Council
similar authority when considering Conditional Use Permit applications. While
this amendment would have affect throughout the city, it is especially needed in
order to allow discretionary development in Strategic Growth Areas (SGAs) to
conform to the urban form that, while contemplated by the SGA Plans, is not
allowed by the corresponding provisions of the City Zoning Ordinance. For
example, the majority of the various SGA Plans contemplate that new
development be placed closer to the street (e.g., five-foot setback) than typical ~~, i
suburban-style development; at the same time, however, required front-yard
setbacks in most Business Districts are between 30 and 35 feet. The amended
ordinance would allow the City Council to approve setbacks appropriate to the ~~
respective SGA Plan, as well as allowing deviations to other features as noted
above. Until implementing ordinances for the various SGAs are adopted, this
provision is the only solution to the current dichotomy between the SGA Plans ~''
and the Zoning Ordinance's dimensional regulations that is workable and also ~'~
subject to direct City Council review.

28 owner's duly authorized agent therefor, of the property which is the subject of the proposed
29 change of zoning district classification, addressed to the city council.
30 In the latter case, the petition shall be addressed to city council but shall be filed with the
31 director of planning. The director shall +r^n cause the petition to be placed
32 on the agenda of the planning commission #e~-res For purposes of this section,

39 The amendments: (1) clarify that the section applies to modifications of conditional rezoning as well
40 as original rezoning applications; and (2) update the terminology used in the section. The term "petition"
41 (as opposed to the more commonly used term "application") is retained, however, as "petition" is the term
42 utilized in the Virginia Code.
43
44 (b) Withdrawal of petition. ~F#ere The ci1:y council
45
46
47 ~et+tie+~-}t may allow withdrawal of a petition for an a change of

51 the working day next preceding the public hearing In the event such notification is not timely
52 made no withdrawal shall be allowed by the city council. However, if #~e such petition is
53 denied by city council, substantially the same petition shall not be filed within one (1) year of
54 the date of denial.

67 The amendments: (1) allow the City Council to allow an application to be withdrawn for any reason
68 deemed suitable by the City Council, but require that the applicant notify the City Clerk of its intent to
69 seek a withdrawal by letter or a-mail received by noon the day before the CC meeting (Lines 47-52); and
70 (2) rewrite the criteria for determining whether a subsequently filed application is "substantially the same"
71 as an application that has previously been denied by the City Council (Lines 57-61).
72
73 Stylistic changes having no substantive effect are also made.

77 (c) Planning commission action; notice of public hearing. Before making any
78 recommendation on a proposed amendment, the planning commission shall give notice of a
79 public hearing thereon, as set forth in Section 15.2-2204 of the Code of Virginia, as amended,
80 or any successor statute; provided, however, that written notice as prescribed therein shall be
81 given at least fifteen (15) days prior to the hearing and in the case of a condominium or a
82 cooperative, the written notice may be mailed to the unit owners' association or proprietary
83 lessees' association, respectively, in lieu of each individual owner. In the case of a proposed
84 change of zoning district classification the public notice shall state the general usage and
85 density range of the proposed zoning district classification and the general usage and density
86 range if any set forth in the applicable part of the comprehensive plan provided, however,
87 that where a conditional change of zoning_is sought the public notice shall state the proposed
88 uses and density sought in the petition.

91
92 The amendments restate Virginia Code requirements for the descriptive summaries that must be
93 advertised in a local newspaper as part of a rezoning application (Lines 83-88). Technical changes are also
94 added.
95
96 (d) Planning commission hearing; action following hearing. Unless the p~epesaf
97 etp ition is withdrawn before the public hearing, the public
98 hearing shall be held at the time and place announced; provided, however, that if the public

100 public notice shall be issued as for the original notice. The applicant shall have the right to
101 withdraw any petition prior to the commencement of the public hearing on the petition, without
102 further action as otherwise would be required by this section. In the event the public hearing is
103 postponed to a date certain announced at the meeting at which the petition was scheduled to
104 be heard the public hearing on such date certain shall not be required to be readvertised, but
105 written notice of the public hearing shall be re-mailed to those persons entitled to such notice.

The amendments: (1) increase the time within which the City Council may initiate reconsideration
of a denial of an application by reason of a tie vote from 21 to 30 days (Line 176); (2) provide that if an
application is denied by the City Council and is thereafter substantially changed, the application must be
referred back to the Planning Commission prior to final action by the City Council (Lines 182-186); and (3)
eliminate the rules set forth in this subsection regarding modifications of previously approved conditions in
light of the fact that subsection (a) provides that applications for modification of conditions are to be
treated the same as original applications (Lines 186-195).
Other changes are stylistic in nature and do not have substantive effect.

district boundaries; or classification of property shall be accompanied by a fee in
the amount of nine hundred dollars ($900.00), plus ten dollars ($10.00) per acre for each acre

444 COMMENT
445
446 The amendments eliminate language that is either unnecessarily specific or pertains to matters that
447 are covered elsewhere in this subsection in a more readable form.
448
449 fib) In the event the applicant submits a modified conditional zoning
450 agreement containing any substantive revisions to the agreement
451 after the filing of the petition but prior to the public hearing before
452 the planning commission such petition shall not be considered by
453 the planning commission except to allow its deferral unless such
454 modified conditional zoning agreement meets the requirements of
455 this section and has been been received by the planning director no
456 later than the close of business twenty-one (21) days prior to, but
457 not including the date of the public hearing before the planning
458 commission.
459
460 COMMENT
461
462 The amendments change the date by which the applicant must submit a conditional zoning
463 agreement that he or she has substantively modified after initially submitting it from fifteen to twenty-one
464 days prior to, but not including, the date of the Planning Commission meeting.
465
466 ~c) The planning commission shall recommend to the city council
467 approval or denial of the petition and may in addition recommend
12
468 that one or more of the proffers contained in the conditional zoning
469 agreement be rejected or modified or that new proffers be added.
470
471 COMMENT
472
473 The amendments restate current law, and make it clear that the Planning Commission may
474 recommend that proffers be modified, as well as added or deleted
475
476 (-~-) (7) Procedure (city council).
477
478 ~a) Unless the application is deferred or withdrawn the city council
479 shall approve or deny the petition and may in approving the
480 petition accept all the proffers contained in the agreement or
481 accept some and reject the remainder of such proffers. No proffer
482 shall be modified or added by the city council unless such modified
483 or added proffer is contained in a conditional zoning agreement
484 meeting the requirements of this section that was received by the
485 planning director no later than the close of business ten (10) days
486 prior to but not including the date of the public hearing before the
487 city council at which the conditional zoning agreement containing
488 such proffer is considered.
489

491
492 The amendments restate current provisions in this section in a more readable form.
493
494 fib) The procedure for the consideration of petitions for conditional
495 change of zoning district classification shall in all other respects be
496 as set forth in subsections (a) through (q).
497
498 COMMENT
499
500 The amendments make it clear that the procedure for hearing conditional zoning applications is
501 covered by the provisions relating to other types of application, except to the extent they are treated

511 of the property has occurred since the date of the title certificate
512 In the event that the city attorney

546 COMMENT
547
548 The amendments: (1) require City Attorney to determine whether any change in ownership of the
549 property between the City Council approval and recordation of the conditional zoning agreement in the
550 Circuit Court Clerk's Office is material; and (2) specify that the City Attorney must simply notify the City
551 Council if he determines that any change in ownership of the subject property may be detrimental to the
552 City, rather than set in motion a lengthy and complicated process that is highly unlikely to be needed in
553 light of the fact that conditions of a rezoning (i.e., proffers) run with the land so as to bind all subsequent
554 owners of the property that was rezoned. Once notified, any member of the City Council may, by motion,
555 initiate a reconsideration of the application within thirty days (Lines 539-543).
556
557 (b) The failure to record any conditional zoning agreement shall not
558 relieve the applicant or anv other person or entity who is bound by
559 the provisions of such agreement including anv successor in
560 interest to an original party to the agreement from performance of
561 the covenants or conditions contained in the agreement according
562 to their terms nor shall the failure to record any such agreement
563 affect the validity or enforceability of the action of the city council.
564
565 COMMENT
566
567 The amendments provide that the failure to record an approved conditional zoning agreement with
568 the Clerk of the Circuit Court does not affect the validity or enforceability of the City Council's approval.
569 This provisions restates existing law, which does not require that conditional zoning agreements be
570 recorded with the Clerk of the Circuit Court in order to be effective.
571
572 (9) Effect of ~eeerde~ proffers. Once accepted
573 ~.~~on+ +„ +ho ",nin„ rirrJin~nn by the city council, st~# the
574 conditions shall continue in full force and effect until a subsequent
575 amendment changes the zoning on the property covered by such
576 conditions; provided, however, that such conditions shall continue if the
577 subsequent amendment is part of the comprehensive implementation of a
578 new or substantially revised zoning ordinance. The adoption of codes or
579 amendments applicable to all or a substantial portion of any Strategic
580 Growth Area designated in the Comprehensive Plan shall not be deemed
581 to be part of a comprehensive implementation of a new or substantially
582 revised zoning ordinance. The zoning administration officer is hereby
583 vested with all necessary authority to enforce such conditions.
584
15
585 (10) Amendments to accepted proffers. No amendment shall be made to any
586 accepted proffer except in the manner of a new rezoning a~pl+satiee
587 eta ition as set forth herein.
588
589 COMMENT
590
591 The amendments make technical changes not having any substantive effect.
592
593 (i) Petitions not meeting minimum requirements. Any petition for which the
594 parcel involved or structure on the parcel does not meet the minimum area--e~
595 dimensional ~~~is~+e~s requirements of the proposed zoning district shall be processed
596 nevertheless, but shall not be approved by the cit council unless it finds that either
597 special circumstances pertinent to the site or
598 the proposed conditions of rezoning
599 adequately offset the negative effects ;,n,~er n+ in +ho NroM nr ~imoncinno of the
600 deficiency In addition the cit rLcouncil may for good cause shown and upon a finding
601 that there will be no significant detrimental effects on surrounding properties, accept
602 proffered conditions reasonably deviating from the setback landscaping and minimum
603 lot area requirements and height restrictions except as provided in Section 202(b),
604 otherwise applicable to the proposed development No such deviation shall be in
605 conflict with the applicable provisions of the comprehensive plan.
606
607 COMMENT
608
609 The amendments allow the City Council to accept proffered conditions reasonably deviating
610 from the setback, landscaping and minimum lot area requirements and height restrictions of the
611 CZO (except as to navigation hazards) upon a finding that there will be no significant detrimental
612 effects on surrounding properties. Such deviations may not conflict with the Comprehensive Plan
613 (Lines 597-603). The added language is substantially the same as the language giving the City
614 similar authority in the context of conditional use permit applications.
