CITY OF VIRGINIA BEACH
AGENDA ITEM
ITEM: 1) An Ordinance to Amend and Reordain Ordinance #3300 to Delay the Start
Date of the Chesopeian Colony SSD and Ordinance #3302F to Reduce the
Appropriation to Capital Project #8-503
2) An Ordinance to Approve an Amendment to the City Council Policy
Regarding Neighborhood Dredging Special Service Districts
MEETING DATE: December 3, 2013
■ Background: The following special service districts have been established by
City Council to facilitate neighborhood channel dredging:
• Old Donation Creek, effective date of levy : 10/1/11
• Bayville Creek, effective date of levy : 7/1/12
• Shadowlawn, effective date of levy : 7/1/12
• Chesopeian Colony, effective date of levy : 1/1/14
July 1 is the beginning of the City's fiscal year as well as the beginning cycle of real
estate assessment and billing. When special service districts are effective at the
beginning of the tax year, there is no manual labor to calculate and change the tax bills
for the prorated year.
■ Considerations: Effectively dating SSDs mid -year requires a manual
manipulation of the land book and the issuance of supplemental tax bills. This process
is labor intensive for both the City Treasurer and ComIT. Additionally, mid -year
supplemental tax bills are confusing to taxpayers and loan servicing companies. The
City Treasurer proposes the following to remedy billing issues related to the Chesopeian
Colony SSD and to avoid future problems with SSD supplemental billing. First, delay
the effective date of the Chesopeian Colony until July 1, 2014. The financial impact of
the six month's levy is $99,797 that would be delayed into FY2015. Second, the City
Treasurer proposes an amendment to the City Council policy regarding Neighborhood
Dredging SSDs. This amendment would direct staff to prepare ordinances establishing
future SSDs to make the levy effective the July 1 immediately following adoption.
■ Public Information: Public information will be provided by the regular City
Council agenda process.
■ Attachments: Ordinances (2); ORD #3300; ORD #3302F; Proposed
Amendment to the City Council Policy Regarding Neighborhood Dredging SSDs

Title: Neighborhood Dredging Program
Index Number:
Date of Adoption: 5/10/2011
Date of Revision: _/_/2013
Page: 1 of 2
1.0 Purpose and Need
For well over a decade, the difficulty in removing sediment of the navigation channels within the City's various
bays and river basins has negatively impacted the waterfront homeowners' ability to optimize use of their
properties. In addition, water quality and habitat have been severely impacted due to the siltation of the
bottomland of those bays and rivers.
The purpose of this policy is to establish a neighborhood dredging program that would be funded by a partnership
between the City and neighborhood residents to ensure that the Lynnhaven River, Rudee Inlet, the Elizabeth River,
Broad Bay, and Linkhorn Bay navigation channels are adequately dredged.
2.0 Policy
It is the policy of the City Council that whenever practicable the navigation channels within the Lynnhaven River
basin, the Rudee Inlet basin, the Elizabeth River basin, Broad Bay, and Linkhorn Bay will be maintained in navigable
condition through a partnership between the City and homeowners whose properties are contingent to the
waterways.
3.0 Procedure to Accomplish Policy
3.1 City Council will establish neighborhood dredging Special Service Districts (SSD) as they are requested by
those neighborhoods adjoining the Lynnhaven River, Rudee Inlet, the Elizabeth River, Broad Bay, and
Linkhorn Bay. The neighborhood participation percentage will be a minimum of 80% of properties
adjacent to the waterways before establishing an SSD.
3.2 The total period for each SSD will be 16 years. Individual SSD tax rates will be computed based on the cost
of dredging the neighborhood channels.
3.3 The City will be responsible for the main channels and spur channels off a main channel, the
neighborhoods will be responsible for those channels that serve a collective neighborhood, and property
owners will be responsible for private (individual) channels and dock basins that serve individual
properties.
3.4 The City's portion of the cost of dredging the channels will be paid for through the General Fund. The
neighborhood dredging project will require initial City funding, but over the 16 -year dredging period the
SSD will pay for the entire cost of the neighborhood dredging except private channels and dock basins and
will reimburse the City for any upfront costs.
4.0 Responsibility and Authority
4.1 For each neighborhood dredging project, the Department of Public Works is responsible for identifying
those channels that are the City's responsibility, providing the Department of Management Services with
the information needed to determine the City's cost of providing dredging service to those channels, and
working with the respective neighborhoods to accomplish the necessary dredging.
4.2 The Department of Management Services will provide analysis to determine the cost to the City for each
neighborhood dredging project and how that cost will be funded, prepare the necessary documents
requesting City Council approval of the project and establishment of the associated SSD, and following
City Council approval will ensure that the funds representing the City's portion of the cost of the project
will be appropriated in a special reserve. The SSD levy portion of the ordinance to create an SSD pursuant
to this policy shall provide an effective date of the July I" following adoption.
4.3 Any funding for this policy shall be subject to annual appropriation and/or Council authorized issuance of
debt.
5.0 Definitions
Main Channels: The primary channels connecting directly to the Lynnhaven River basin, the Rudee Inlet basin, the
Elizabeth River basin, Broad Bay, and Linkhorn Bay.
Navigation Channel: For purposes of this policy, a channel in the Lynnhaven River basin, the Rudee Inlet basin, the
Elizabeth River basin, Broad Bay, and Linkhorn Bay that is deep enough to enable boats to pass through.
Neighborhood Channel: A system of channels within an estuary to a main channel that serves as a collective access
channel for one neighborhood.
Private (Individual) Channel: An access channel leading from private property and improvements to a
neighborhood channel.
Special Service District: A defined geographical area of the City where special services are rendered and the costs
of those special services are paid from revenues collected from service charges imposed within that area as
authorized by §§15.2-2400, et seq. of the Code of Virginia.
Spur Channel: That portion of a navigation channel leading from a main channel to a neighborhood channel
system that is adopted as a designated City channel, which may serve more than one neighborhood.

AGENDA ITEM
ITEM: COASTAL COMMUNITY CHURCH (Applicant & Owner), Conditional Use
Permit for a religious facility. 2800 S. Independence Blvd (GPIN 1475402676).
COUNCIL DISTRICT — CENTERVILLE.
MEETING DATE: December 3, 2013
■ Background:
The applicant requests a Conditional Use Permit to allow development of the site
for a new 18,500 square feet worship center. In 1984, the subject site was
included in the Land Use Plan of Glenwood, approved for R.G. Moore Building
Corporation. The site was zoned B-1 Neighborhood Business District. On
October 17, 1995, the site was rezoned to R-10 Residential and a Conditional
Use Permit was obtained to construct a religious use (church). That church was
never constructed. In 1997, another Conditional Use Permit was approved. City
records show that the Family Life Center that currently sits at the south of the site
was constructed in 2001, and the church met in that building until recently. In
2004, a Modification to the Conditional Use Permit was granted to allow a 12 -foot
tall, pylon -style, internally illuminated sign on the site, and to allow for awnings to
be installed across the front of the building.
■ Considerations:
The submitted site plan depicts a church building of 18,507 square feet, including
a future expansion at the rear. The sanctuary will seat 735 people, and 245
parking spaces are provided, which meets the off-street parking requirements for
a religious use. There is an existing parking area, which will remain, and
additional parking is being added around all sides of the proposed church
building. The building will be oriented towards Round Hill Drive with the principal
building access being on the northeast facade. The site plan depicts a substantial
lawn area between the parking area and South Independence Boulevard. In
addition to the lawn area, a row of trees and shrubs will be planted along the
edge of the parking area that runs adjacent to South Independence Boulevard
and Round Hill Drive. The existing free-standing sign located at the north corner
of the site is to remain.
The proposed church building is contemporary in design. The design meets the
Comprehensive Plan's Design Guidelines for the Suburban Area with regard to
scale, building mass, proportion of building components, color, and material
selection. Variations in materials, the use of wall projections, and height
variations are all instrumental to breaking up the mass of the building and
Coastal Community Church
Page 2of3
creating a visually pleasing facade. The building will primarily be Exterior
Insulation Finishing System (EIFS) and will use synthetic stone veneer and a
storefront window system as accents. There will be two tall glass tower features
located on each side of the main doorway. There is a covered walkway feature
along the northwest facade that adds visual interest to the building from the
public right-of-way.
Additional detail regarding the site and building design are provided in the
attached staff report.
The continued use of the subject site for a church including the proposed new
construction complements the existing uses in the area and provides a transition
from the intersection of the roadways to the adjacent school and residential uses.
Additionally, two Conditional Use Permits have previously been granted on this
site for religious uses. At the time of the granting of the original Conditional Use
Permit, the church was not able to construct the building proposed at that time.
The applicant is now ready to proceed with construction of the new worship
facility.
There was no opposition to the request.
■ Recommendation:
The Planning Commission placed this item on the Consent Agenda, passing a
motion by a recorded vote of 11-0, to recommend approval of this request to the
City Council with the following conditions:
Unless modified by any condition below or as a result of development site
plan review, the site shall be developed in substantial accordance with the
site plan entitled, "CONCEPTUAL SITE LAYOUT & LANDSCAPE PLAN OF
COASTAL COMMUNITY CHURCH", dated September 2, 2013 and prepared
by MSA, P.C., which is on file in the Planning Department.
2. The temporary curb cut along South Independence Boulevard shall be
removed and curbing to match existing shall be installed unless the access is
determined necessary for the use of the Fire Department.
3. A three-foot high earthen berm shall be installed between Round Hill Drive
and the parking area. Sculpting of the berm shall be such that sight lines
remain open and places of concealment are not fostered. In accordance with
Section 2.7 of the Landscaping, Screening and Buffering Specifications and
Standards section of the City's Landscaping Guide, the slope of the berm
shall not exceed three (3) feet of rise to one (1) foot of run and the top width
of the berm shall be sufficient to allow installation and maintenance of
landscaping, grass and/or ground cover sufficient to preclude erosion of the
berm. Category I landscaping shall be planted on the berm to provide

BACKGROUND / DETAILS OF PROPOSAL
The applicant requests a Conditional Use Permit to allow development of the site for a new 18,500
square feet worship center. In 1984, the subject site was included in the Land Use Plan of Glenwood,
approved for R.G. Moore Building Corporation. The site was zoned B-1 Neighborhood Business District.
On October 17, 1995, the site was rezoned to R-10 Residential and a Conditional Use Permit was
obtained to construct a religious use (church). That church was never constructed. In 1997, another
Conditional Use Permit was approved. City records show that the Family Life Center that currently sits at
the south of the site was constructed in 2001. In 2004, a Modification to the Conditional Use Permit was
granted to allow a 12 -foot tall, pylon -style, and internally illuminated sign and to allow for awnings to be
located across the front of the building.
The majority of the site is an undeveloped grass field. The existing 4,800 square foot two-story building
acts as the congregation's Family Life Center and will remain on the site. This building will house the
church offices and youth activities center. Access to the site is along Round Hill Drive at the southeastern
edge of the site and will remain the only access point. There is an existing paved parking area that will
also remain. The temporary curb cut and gravel driveway at the west of the site along South
Independence will be removed and curbing will be installed to match the existing along the roadway.
COASTAL COMMUNITY CHURCH
Agenda Item 4
Page
The submitted site plan depicts a church building of 18,507 square feet, including a future expansion at
the rear. The sanctuary will seat 735 people, and 245 parking spaces are provided to meet the off-street
parking requirements per Section 203 of the Zoning Ordinance. The existing parking will remain, with
additional parking being added around all sides of the proposed church building. The proposed church
building will be oriented towards Round Hill Drive with the main entrance being on the northeast facade.
The site plan depicts a substantial green space between the parking area and South Independence
Boulevard. In addition to the grassy area, a row of trees and bushes will be planted along the edge of the
parking area that runs adjacent to South Independence Boulevard and Round Hill Drive. The existing
free-standing sign located at the north corner of the site is to remain.
The proposed church building elevations depict the use of a contemporary style. The facades will be an
External Insulation Finishing System (EIFS) with synthetic masonry accents. Recesses in the elevation as
well as material variations will break up the mass of the facade. A darker earth -toned colored EIFS
provides visual separation on the structure. Below the band, synthetic masonry veneer and storefront
windows are used along the front facade. The area over the band is primarily a lighter colored EIFS with
tower features of synthetic masonry and glass extending upward the entire height of the structure. The
two-story glass tower features, located on each side of the main entrance, provide natural light into the
lobby area.
The application notes that Phase One will include: new worship facility with Sunday school classrooms, a
warming kitchen, and a sanctuary space that seats 735 people. The sanctuary will function as a multi-
purpose space for worship and congregational dinners until the completion of Phase Two, which will add
a large gym and multi-purpose space. The church will be open Monday through Thursdays, 8:00 a.m. to
4:00 p.m., and Sunday services will be held at 9:30 a.m. and 11:00 a.m. There are 13 full and part-time
employees.

COMPREHENSIVE PLAN: The Comprehensive Plan identifies this site as being located within the
Suburban Area. The general planning principles for the Suburban Area focus on preserving and
protecting the overall character, economic value, aesthetic quality of the stable neighborhoods, and
reinforcing the suburban characteristics of commercial centers and other non-residential areas that
comprise part of the Suburban Area. Achieving these goals requires that all land use activities either
maintain or enhance the existing neighborhood through compatibility with surroundings, quality and
attractiveness of site and buildings, improved mobility, environmental responsibility, livability, and
effective buffering with respects to type, size, intensity and relationship to the surrounding uses.

WATER: The site is already connected to City water. There is an existing 16 -inch City water main along
South Independence Boulevard and 12 -inch City water main along Round Hill Drive. The existing 1.5 -
inch water meter (City ID #94002011) may be used or upgraded to accommodate the proposed
development.

SEWER: The site is already connected to City sanitary sewer. There is an existing 8 -inch City sanitary
sewer gravity main along Round Hill Drive and an existing 30 -inch HRSD force main along Round Hill
Drive. Sanitary sewer and pump station analysis for Pump Station #564 is required to determine if future
flows can be accommodated.
STORMWATER: Stormwater quantity requirements may be met by the original community subdivision
drainage design, if the final stormwater flow meets the equivalent of R-10 density. It should not be
assumed that the new State quality requirements have been satisfied; therefore, a full review will be
required during the final site plan review.
EVALUATION AND RECOMMENDATION
The request for a Conditional Use Permit to construct an approximately 18,500 square foot worship
facility is consistent with the Comprehensive Plan's land use policies for the Suburban Area. A church
would complement the existing uses in the area and provide a transition from the roadway intersection to
the adjacent school and residential uses. Additionally, two Conditional Use Permits have previously been
granted on this site for religious uses. At the time the original Conditional Use Permits were granted, the
proposed church building was not able to be built. The applicant, Coastal Community Church, is now
ready to proceed with constructing a new worship facility.
The subject site is located at the intersection of South Independence Boulevard and Round Hill Drive.
Both streets are currently functioning well under capacity; therefore, the traffic generated by this religious
use should not have a negative impact on the immediate area. Access to the site is to remain in its
current location at the east end of the site along Round Hill Drive. The increase in trip generation by the
proposed religious use will be minimal on a daily basis, with the heaviest volumes of traffic occurring on
Sunday morning.
The parking is pushed closer to the property lines adjacent to South Independence Boulevard. The
Comprehensive Plan states that parking areas should be broken up into separate sub -areas to avoid the
"sea of asphalt" appearance and that landscaping for the parking area should be strategically located to
provide visual relief, shading of the lot, green areas, and screening while ensuring the lines -of -site are
maintained. In this case, a wide grass section with trees and shrubs creates a landscaping buffer that will
shield the parking area from view along the public right-of-way. Additionally an earthen berm will be
installed in the grassy area at the northern portion of the site between Round Hill Drive and the parking
area. This berm will be three feet in height and be installed in conjunction with Category I landscaping.
Trees planted on landscape islands throughout the parking area will soften the appearance of the parking
area. Condition 8 is recommended to address this issue.
The proposed church building is of a contemporary design. It meets the design guidelines for the
Suburban Area in the Comprehensive Plan's Reference Handbook with regard to scale, building mass,
proportion of building components, color and material selection. Variations in materials, the use of wall
projections, and height variations are all instrumental to breaking up the mass of the building and creating
a visually pleasing facade. The building will primarily be Exterior Insulation Finishing System (EIFS) and
will use synthetic stone veneer and storefront windows as accents. There will be two tall glass tower

features located on each side of the main entrance. There is a covered walkway feature along the
northwest facade that adds visual interest to the building from the public right-of-way.
There is an existing monument sign on the site at the intersection of South Independence Boulevard and
Round Hill Drive that is to remain. In 2005 a Modification of the Conditional Use Permit on the site was
granted by City Council to construct this sign. The conditions associated with this approval are to remain,
including maintaining the landscaping around the sign. In addition, the applicant wishes to install a sign
on the front facade of the building. This sign will be centered in a recessed architectural feature over the
main entrance to the sanctuary and will consist of block letters spelling the name of the church. These
letters will not be illuminated. The size of this sign is not to exceed 150 square feet in area. Accordingly,
Condition 7 is recommended to address this issue.
Staff recommends approval of this request with the conditions below.
CONDITIONS
1. Unless modified by any condition below or as a result of development site plan review, the site

Princess Anne Road (GPIN 2309622414). PRINCESS ANNE
MEETING DATE: December 3, 2013
■ Background:
The applicant requests a Conditional Use Permit for the purpose of constructing
a 5,700 square foot one-story addition, as well as a 2,000 square foot future
expansion to the rear of the proposed fellowship hall.
Currently located on the site are the principal church building, the parsonage, a
one -car detached garage, open-air shelter, and cemetery. The site is zoned AG -
2 Agricultural District. The church and parsonage currently located on the site
were built in 1957. The church and cemetery are located on the northern portion
of the lot adjacent to the intersection of Pungo Ferry Road and Princess Anne
Road. The southern portion of the parcel is occupied by the parsonage,
accessory structures, and a large grassy area used for recreational purposes by
the members of the congregation. There is a large gravel area in the center of
the site that is used for parking, predominately for Sunday services. There is a
nine -space paved parking area located in front of the existing church building.
The west portion of the lot is undeveloped and heavily wooded. There are two
paved and two gravel access points on Princess Anne Road along the east side
of the site, as well as a gravel access point along Old Pungo Ferry Road to the
north. There is one freestanding sign located along Princess Anne Road.
■ Considerations:
The proposed additions will be located in the grassy area to the south of the
existing church building, and will include a fellowship hall, kitchen, and bathroom
facilities.. The addition will be connected to the existing structure by a covered
breezeway. The proposed addition is designed to match the existing structure in
both architectural style and materials. The existing one -car garage and child play
structure will be relocated to accommodate the addition.
The applicant also plans on making improvements to the existing site. These
improvements will include extending the paved area to create a drop-off area in
front of the new fellowship hall and extending the drive aisle to the third existing
gravel access point at Princess Anne Road. When funds become available, the
remaining gravel area will be paved.

The proposed building addition and site improvements are consistent with the
Comprehensive Plan's land use policies for non-residential development in the
Rural Area. The church, including the proposed addition is a low impact use, and
is compatible with the surrounding uses, which are primarily residential and
agricultural. The proposed fellowship hall is designed such that it complements
the existing structure on site, and is compatible with the surrounding rural
character in terms of size, scale, architectural style, and selection of materials.
There was no opposition to the request.

motion by a recorded vote of 11-0, to recommend approval of this request to the

BACKGROUND / DETAILS OF PROPOSAL
The applicant, Oak Grove Baptist Church, requests a Conditional Use Permit for the purpose of
constructing a 5,700 square foot one-story addition, as well as a 2,000 square foot future expansion to
the rear of the proposed fellowship hall.
The site currently is comprised of the principal church building, the parsonage, a one -car detached
garage, open-air shelter, and cemetery. The church and cemetery are located on the northern portion of
the lot. The southern portion is occupied by the parsonage, accessory structures, and a large grassy area
used for recreational purposes by the members of the congregation. There is a large gravel area in the
center of the site that is used for parking, predominately for Sunday services. There is a paved and
striped parking area located in front of the existing church facility that accommodates nine spaces. The
west portion of the lot is undeveloped and heavily wooded. There are two paved and two gravel access
points on Princess Anne Road along the east side of the site, as well as a gravel access point along Old
Pungo Ferry Road to the north. There is one freestanding sign located along Princess Anne Road.
The proposed additions will be located in the grassy area to the south of the existing church building. The
addition will be connected to the existing structure by a covered breezeway. The proposed addition is
OAK GROVE BAPTIST
Agenda Item 5
Page 1
designed to match the existing structure in both architectural style and materials. The facade will be red
brick veneer with white projecting architectural accents, including the use of Exterior Insulation Finishing
System (EIFS) panels and cornice as well as two fiberglass columns at the entryway. The roof will be
dark -colored metal standing -seam roof panels. There are two large aluminum storefront windows on each
side of the addition in order to provide the fellowship hall with natural light. The existing one -car garage
and child play structure will be relocated to accommodate the addition.
The proposed addition will include a fellowship hall, kitchen and bathroom facilities. The main access to
the building will be provided through an approximately 500 square foot lobby at the front of the building.
This area is designed with aluminum storefront walls in order to provide natural light to the space. The
fellowship hall is approximately 3,500 square feet, with the remaining area dedicated to the kitchen,
bathroom and service areas. The application states that church will be open during traditional church
hours for Sunday services and Wednesday nights. There will be three full-time employees keeping office
hours on weekdays.
The applicant also plans on making improvements to the existing site. These improvements will include
extending the paved area to create a drop-off area in front of the new fellowship hall and extending the
drive aisle to a third access point at Princess Anne Road that is currently gravel. When funds become
available, the remaining gravel area will be paved.

(parsonage), and cemetery.
SURROUNDING LAND North:
. Pungo Ferry Road
USE AND ZONING:
. Vacant land, Agricultural use / AG -2 Agriculture District

of the site is undeveloped wooded and grass area. There do not
appear to be any significant natural or cultural features on the site.
The site is located in the Southern Watershed.
COMPREHENSIVE PLAN: The Comprehensive Plan designates the subject property as being located
within the Rural Area. The Rural Area lies south of Indian River Road from North Landing Road to
Muddy Creek and Back Bay and extends to the North Carolina Border. The physical character of this

farms, farm related businesses, and limited non-residential areas along with some scattered housing
sites. There is a significant presence of existing agriculture and rural -based economic activities in this
part of Virginia Beach. The City's Rural Preservation Plan policies seek to:
• Preserve and promote the opportunity for continued agricultural production;

Recognize the rural character and the need to preserve its open space and scenic beauty;
Protect and sustain environmental resources for future generations;
• Provide reasonable rural development opportunities; and,
• Eliminate the need for urban infrastructure.

EVALUATION AND RECOMMENDATION
The request for a Conditional Use Permit for the construction of a two-phase addition, consisting of a
5,700 square foot addition and a 2,000 square feet future expansion for a fellowship hall is consistent with
the Comprehensive Plan's land use policies for non-residential development in the Rural Area. The
current use of the 5.22 -acre site, zoned AG -2 Agricultural District, is for religious use, and has been used
as a church for many years. This low impact use is compatible with the surrounding uses which are
primarily residential and agricultural. The proposed fellowship hall is designed such that it complements
the existing structure on site, and is compatible with the surrounding rural character in terms of size,
scale, architectural style, and selection of materials.
The 5,700 square foot fellowship hall will be used as a multi-purpose meeting space and will include a
large fellowship hall, a lobby, a kitchen, and bathroom facilities. This request includes the applicant's
desire to add 2,000 square feet to the fellowship hall at a later date. The future expansion will be in line
OAK GROVE BAPST
Agenda Item 5

with the proposed building and will extend off the rear, meeting all applicable setbacks and zoning
requirements. A majority of the traffic will be generated on Sunday morning for the weekly services. No
projected increase in traffic volume is anticipated for this site. This site does not have City water or sewer
available. As such, the applicant will need to obtain all necessary permits and approvals from the Health
Department for private wells and the septic system. Accordingly, condition 6 is recommended to address
this issue.
Staff recommends approval of this request with the conditions below.

AGENDA ITEM
ITEM: ROLAND COURT, LLC (Applicant & Owner), Conditional Use Permit for a
commercial parking lot. 208 17th Street (GPIN 2427177240). BEACH DISTRICT.
MEETING DATE: December 3, 2013
■ Background:
The applicant requests a Conditional Use Permit to allow use and development
of the subject site as a Commercial Parking Lot. The applicant used the site
during this past season as a temporary commercial parking lot. Since such use is
permissible for only one year, the applicant is now requesting this Use Permit,
which will allow continued use of the site for a commercial parking lot. The lot,
however, since it will no longer be temporary in nature, will be required to meet
the standards for such lots provided for by the City Code. The applicant notes in
the narrative submitted with the application that "our long term objectives are to
develop a Boutique Time Share Resort" for the subject site. The applicant's
intention, therefore, is to use the subject site for commercial parking until the
plans and financing for the proposed development have been finalized.
The subject parcel is zoned OR Oceanfront Resort. Regulations for this zoning
district are provided by the Oceanfront Resort District Form -Based Code (FBC).
Section 5.3.6 of the FBC requires a Conditional Use Permit for all Commercial
Parking Lots. The subject site is located at 208 17th Street. The site is 75 feet
wide and 130 feet deep, and is currently undeveloped with a gravel surface and
no curb cut. The site was the location of the Roland Theater. Adjacent to the
west of the property is a privately owned surface commercial parking lot. To the
north, the property abuts a 10 -foot unimproved public right-of-way that extends
from Atlantic Avenue and terminates at the subject property's western lot line. To
the east is an approximately 16 -foot tall single -story commercial building.
■ Considerations:
The proposed site plan for the paved commercial parking lot includes 28 parking
spaces along the eastern and western lot line with one-way interior circulation,
consisting of a 33 -foot wide center drive aisle. Running north to south in the
center of the parcel is a swale to move stormwater south to a drain and infiltration
trench. The infiltration trench spans the width of the parcel and is located within
the landscaped area which extends 12 feet from the southern property line.
Proposed landscaping for this site includes beach rose and live oaks.
A 24 -foot wide curb cut is proposed at the center of the front property line,
Roland Court, LLC
Page 2 of 4
roughly 100 feet west of the intersection of 17th Street and Atlantic Avenue. To
control access during hours when the lot is closed, a locked chain is proposed
across the entrance. To manage waste, the applicant has proposed use of two
roll-out trash cans located within the front landscaped area.
Section 5.3.6 of the FBC references Section 23-58 of the City Code, which
regulates Commercial Parking Lots. The regulations require paving the parking
area; meeting the requirements of section 5A of the Parking Lot Landscaping
Specifications and Standards; meeting the fencing requirements of Section
201(e) of the City Zoning Ordinance; using a locking maintenance -free gate at all
points of ingress and egress; providing plainly visible trash receptacles; and
having an attendant on site from dusk until 2:00 a.m.
The applicant has proposed a parking setback of 12 feet as opposed to the
Form -Based Code's prescribed form of 20 feet. To address the reduced setback,
the applicant is using the Form -Based Code's Optional Forms of Development
provision, and proposes to exceed the landscaping requirement; provide site
amenity trash receptacles as opposed to the proposed roll out trash cans; and
provide a bench within the front landscaped area for the public to use.
The site plan calls out a split -rail fence following the perimeter of the parking lot
and a locked chain crossing the entrance. To meet the requirements of Section
23-58 the applicant has agreed to change these elements to a maintenance free
white picket fence/gate no higher than four feet in height.
The site will be run by an attendant from open to one half-hour passed closing.
According to code, an attendant is required to be on site between dusk and 2:00
a.m. For this parking lot, the applicant has proposed an attendant during all hours
of operation. To avoid congestion, said attendant will collect the parking fee from
vehicles at a point within the site that will allow the stacking of at least two
vehicles without encroaching into 17th Street.
There was no opposition to the request.

BACKGROUND / DETAILS OF PROPOSAL
The applicant requests a Conditional Use Permit to allow use and development of the site as a
Commercial Parking Lot. The subject parcel is zoned OR Oceanfront Resort. Regulations for this zoning
district are provided by the Oceanfront Resort District Form -Based Code (FBC). Section 5.3.6 of the FBC
requires a Conditional Use Permit for all Commercial Parking Lots.
The subject site is located at 208 17th Street. The site is 75 feet wide by 130 feet deep, and is currently
undeveloped with a gravel surface and no curb cut. Adjacent to the west of the property is a privately
owned surface commercial parking lot. To the north, the property abuts a 10 -foot unimproved public right-
of-way that extends from Atlantic Avenue and terminates at the subject property's western lot line. To the
east is an approximately 16 -foot tall single -story commercial building. To the south, the property fronts on
17th Street.
The proposed site plan for the paved commercial parking lot includes 28 90 -degree parking spaces along
the eastern and western lot line with one-way interior circulation, which is facilitated by a 33 -foot wide
center drive aisle. Running north to south in the center of the parcel is a swale to move stormwater south
to a drain and infiltration trench. The infiltration trench spans the width of the parcel and is located within
the landscaped area which extends 12 feet from the southern property line. Proposed landscaping for
this site includes beach rose and live oaks with a split -rail fence bordering the site.

EVALUATION AND RECOMMENDATION
The subject parcel is zoned OR Oceanfront Resort; regulations for this zoning district are provided by the

attendant on site from dusk until 2:00 a.m.
The submitted site plan incorporates a 5 -foot deep by 150 -foot wide parcel/alley adjacent to the north of
the subject site. Currently, without proof of ownership or a lease agreement from the applicant, the
proposed development will need to take place within the subject site of 208 17th Street, outside the alley.
Altering the site plan to fit the parking spaces within the subject site will result in the loss of two parking
spaces.This will reduce the total number of parking spaces to 22 spaces.
The site plan includes a drive aisle 33 feet in width. The maximum drive aisle width per the City of Virginia
Zoning Ordinance is 24 feet. The applicant will need to reduce the drive aisle width to meet this
maximum. This will result in an additional nine feet of lot width that should be left unpaved and
permeable.
The applicant has proposed a parking setback of 12 feet as opposed to the prescribed form of 20 feet. As
an Optional Form, the applicant will exceed the landscaping requirement; provide site amenity trash
receptacles as opposed to the proposed roll out trash cans; and will provide a bench within the front

AGENDA ITEM
ITEM: BEST BUY WHEELS (Applicant) / ALKIVIADU MAGRIPLIS (Owner),
Conditional Use Permit for a bulk storage yard. 1740 Virginia Beach Boulevard
(GPIN 2407753989). COUNCIL DISTRICT - BEACH.
MEETING DATE: December 3, 2013
■ Background:
The applicant is requesting a Conditional Use Permit for an existing bulk storage
yard located on the rear portion of the subject parcel. Automobile service has
been located on this site since a Conditional Use Permit was granted to Virginia
Beach Body Works on November 12, 1973. On January 9, 2009, an APZ-1
Permit was approved for the sale and display of new and used automobiles. Due
to the site's location within Accident Potential Zone 1, Section 1809 of the City
Zoning Ordinance allows the Planning Director to approve, through an
abbreviated process that includes public notification, certain uses that typically
would require a Conditional Use Permit from the City Council. The approval of
this APZ-1 Permit had two conditions:
1. The site shall be re -developed and landscaped substantially in
accordance with the submitted "PRELIMINARY SITE PLAN OF 1744
VIRGINIA BEACH BOULEVARD FOR ALKIVAIDIS MAGRIPLIS", dated
9/30/28 and prepared by John E. Sirine and Associates. This shall be
accomplished before the business license is approved.
2. Parking spaces and display area spaces must be clearly delineated in
the parking lot in accordance with the approved plan. Vehicles are to be
parked in the designated areas and no vehicle shall be parked within any
portion of the public right-of-way.
■ Considerations:
The improvements required as part of the 2009 APZ-1 Permit included enhanced
landscaping along Virginia Beach Boulevard and the installation of curb and
gutter; however, based on a staffs visit to the site as part of the evaluation of this
Use Permit request, staff noted that the conditions have not been met.
Additionally, staff cannot find a valid business license for automobile sales for the
applicant at this site.
The subject is occupied by a one-story, cinder -block building containing 2,630
square feet of floor area. The building has 497 square feet for the vehicle sales
Best Buy Wheels
Page 2of4
office and 2,133 square feet for vehicle repair. The rear portion of the site is a
gravel lot that is currently being used to store vehicles and containers.
The applicant was unaware of the need for a Conditional Use Permit for bulk
storage. In response to a Notice of Violation from the Zoning Office, dated March
25, 2013, regarding the storage of vehicles on the property, the applicant
submitted a Conditional Use Permit application for bulk storage on the site.
There is a six-foot high chain-link fence surrounding the rear portion of the lot
and barbed wire has been placed on top of the fencing along the east and rear
(north) property lines. The vehicles are stored in this area until they are ready to
be sold, at which time they are moved to the front portion of the site and
displayed in the designated sales areas. The application states that there are
three employees with hours of operation as 10 a.m. to 6 p.m. on Monday through
Friday and 11 a.m. to 5 p.m. on Saturday.
While the current use of the site and the building layout are not what the Hilltop
SGA Master Plan envisions, the use is consistent with existing conditions and
land use in the area, and is appropriate until such time that market conditions
force change in this area. Thus, the use is generally consistent with the
Comprehensive Plan's land use policies regarding compatible development.
Several automobile -related Conditional Use Permits have been granted in the
vicinity of the subject site, including bulk storage yards, automobile repair
garages, and automobile sales. Given the location of the site in the highest
AICUZ and Accident Potential Zone -1, industrial uses such as automobile repair
and storage yards are appropriate.
The existing gravel surface in the area of the site designated as the bulk storage
yard is permitted subject to approval by the City's Building Official. Section 228 of
the City Zoning Ordinance provides the standards for bulk storage yards. One of
the standards requires the installation of Category VI screening around the entire
bulk storage yard, except for necessary openings for ingress and egress.
Category VI screening consists of a solid fence, not less than six feet in height,
with shrubs planted on the exterior side of the fence in a planting bed not less
than six feet in width. The existing chain link and barbed wire fence currently
enclosing the bulk storage yard does not meet that standard. Accordingly,
Condition 4 is recommended to address this issue.
There was no opposition to the request.
■ Recommendations:
The Planning Commission, passing a motion by a recorded vote of 10-1,
recommends denial of this request to the City Council. The applicant was not
present at the public hearing to respond to questions that the commissioners had
regarding why the site improvements had not been installed as required by the
2009 Permit. The application had been deferred by the Planning Commission at
Best Buy Wheels
Page 3 of 4
the Commission's September meeting due to the applicant's failure to properly
post the required Public Notice sign.
If the City Council determines that approval of the application is appropriate,
Planning staff recommends the following conditions:
All conditions of the APZ-1 Permit for automobile sales, issued on January
9, 2009, shall remain in effect.
2. A site plan shall be submitted to the Development Services Center to
ensure all improvements as shown on the plan approved as a condition of
the APZ-1 Permit referenced above in Condition 1 are completed. Said
site plan shall include any additional site improvements required by the
conditions below as well as those required by all applicable City
ordinances and standards.
3. Barbed wire shall be prohibited and shall be removed from the site where
it currently exists.
4. Consistent with the screening and buffering requirements for bulk storage
yards as set forth by Section 228 of the City of Virginia Beach Zoning
Ordinance, the existing chain link fencing shall be removed and replaced
with a solid fence, not less than six (6) feet in height. Vegetation meeting
the Category VI screening requirement shall be planted along the exterior
of the fence surrounding the bulk storage yard.
5. The use of a gravel surface in the area designated for the bulk storage
yard shall be allowed subject to the approval of the Building Official.
6. There shall be no outside storage of equipment, parts, or materials visible
from the public right-of-way.
7. Any vehicle stored on site shall be operable, with the exception of wrecked
vehicles towed to the site. A determination of operability of a wrecked
vehicle shall be made within five business days of arrival on site. No
wrecked vehicle shall remain on the site for more than five business days.
8. Storage of containers shall only be permitted on the rear portion of the
bulk storage yard in an orderly manner as specified on the submitted plan
entitled, "PLAN OF PROPERTY LOCATED AT OCEANA FOR
ALKIVIADIS ANDREAS MAGRIPLIS AND EFTIHIA A. MAGRIPLIS",
dated August 20, 2008.
9. Any lighting for the storage yard shall be limited to light packs installed on
the building and fence, as well as pole lighting not to exceed a maximum

height of 14 feet. All lighting shall be shielded and directed downward to
limit the amount of light overspill outside the property boundary.

BACKGROUND / DETAILS OF PROPOSAL
The applicant is requesting a Conditional Use Permit for an existing bulk storage yard located on the rear
portion of the subject parcel. Automobile service has been located on this site since a Conditional Use
Permit was granted to Virginia Beach Body Works on November 12, 1973. On January 9, 2009, an APZ-1
Permit was approved for the sale and display of new and used automobiles. Due to the site's location
within Accident Potential Zone 1, Section 1809 of the City Zoning Ordinance allows the Planning Director
to approve, through an abbreviated process that includes public notification, certain uses that typically
would require a Conditional Use Permit from the City Council. The approval of this APZ-1 Permit had two
conditions:
1. The site shall be re -developed and landscaped substantially in accordance with the submitted
"PRELIMINARY SITE PLAN OF 1744 VIRGINIA BEACH BOULEVARD FOR ALKIVAIDIS
MAGRIPLIS", dated 9/30/28 and prepared by John E. Sirine and Associates. This shall be

2. Parking spaces and display area spaces must be clearly delineated in the parking lot in
accordance with the approved plan. Vehicles are to be parked in the designated areas and no
vehicle shall be parked within any portion of the public right-of-way.
Proposed improvements to the site included enhanced landscaping along Virginia Beach Boulevard and
the installation of curb and guttering; however, based on a recent field visit to the site, these conditions
have not been met. Additionally, staff cannot find a valid business license for automobile sales for the
applicant at this site.
The subject site is zoned B-2 Commercial Business District and is occupied by a one-story, cinder -block
building containing 2,630 square feet of floor area. The building has 497 square feet for the vehicle sales
office and 2,133 square feet for vehicle repair. The rear portion of the site is a gravel lot that is currently
being used to store vehicles and containers. The applicant was unaware of the need for a Conditional
Use Permit for bulk storage. In response to a Notice of Violation from the Zoning Office, dated March 25,
2013, pertaining to the storage of vehicles on the property, the applicant submitted a Conditional Use
Permit application for bulk storage on the site.
There is a six-foot high chain-link fence surrounding the rear portion of the lot and barbed wire has been
placed on top of the fencing along the east and rear (north) property lines. The vehicles are stored in this
area until they are ready to be sold, at which time they are moved to the front portion of the site and
displayed in the designated sales areas. The application states that there are three employees with hours
of operation as 10 a.m. to 6 p.m. on Monday through Friday and 11 a.m. to 5 p.m. on Saturday.
The required parking for the automobile sales is located along the west side of the building. The areas in
front and along the west property line adjacent to the building are dedicated to displaying vehicles for
sale. Plant material on the site consists of a few shrubs along Virginia Beach Boulevard, as well as some
vegetation at the base of the monument sign at the southwest corner of the property.

COMPREHENSIVE PLAN: The Comprehensive Plan designates the subject property as Urban Area -

Agenda Iten' D5
Page 2
Hilltop Strategic Growth Area (SGA 7). The Hilltop SGA Master Plan was adopted as a Comprehensive
Plan amendment on August 28, 2012, and is the guiding planning and land use document for this area.
The Hilltop SGA is designated as an area for redevelopment and reinvestment because of its existing
commercial strength and its proximity to the Oceanfront Resort Area, NAS Oceana, and the 1-264/First
Colonial Road interchange.
The current use of the site as well as the site design is not consistent with the Comprehensive Plan's
land use and planning policies regarding compatible development as well as the vision for this area of
the Hilltop SGA. The current use, however, is in keeping with that of the surrounding area.
IMPACT ON CITY SERVICES
TRAFFIC: As per Public Works Standards, curb and gutter and a commercial entrance must be installed
for this site to bring it up to current standards for safety and access management.
WATER: This site is currently connected to City water. There is an existing 12 -inch City water line in
Virginia Beach Boulevard. The existing 1 -inch meter (City ID #95049548) can be used or upgraded to
accommodate the proposed development.
SEWER: The site is currently connected to City sanitary sewer. There are two existing eight -inch City
gravity sanitary sewer mains in Virginia Beach Boulevard. Analysis of Pump Station #262 and the
sanitary sewer collection system is required to ensure future flows can be accommodated.
FIRE: No Comments.
EVALUATION AND RECOMMENDATION
On January 9, 2009, an APZ-1 Permit was granted for the sale and display of new and used automobiles.
Staff recently inspected the site, and found that the conditions of the APZ-1 Permit have not been met.
Accordingly, the improvements required by those conditions must be completed, and the recommended
conditions below reiterate that requirement.
The current request is for a Conditional Use Permit for bulk storage pertains to use of the rear portion of
the 29,841 square foot site, zoned B-2 Commercial Business District, for the storage of vehicles and
storage containers. The vehicles stored on the site will consist of new and used automobiles that are
being prepared for sale on the front portion of the lot in the areas that were designated as display areas
per the site plan conditioned with the 2009 APZ-1 Permit.
While the use and the current site and building layout are not what the Hilltop SGA Master Plan envisions,
the use is consistent with existing conditions and land use in the area, and is appropriate until such time
that market conditions force change in this area. Thus, the use is generally consistent with the
Comprehensive Plan's land use policies regarding compatible development. Several automobile -related
Conditional Use Permits have been granted in the vicinity of the subject site, including bulk storage yards,
BEST BUY WHEELS
Agenda Item D5
Page 3
automobile repair garages, and automobile sales. Given the location of the site in the highest AICUZ and
Accident Potential Zone -1, industrial uses such as automobile repair and storage yards are appropriate.
The existing gravel surface in the area of the site designated as the bulk storage yard is permitted subject
to approval by the City's Building Official. Section 228 of the City Zoning Ordinance provides the
standards for bulk storage yards. One of the standards requires the installation of Category VI screening
around the entire bulk storage yard, except for necessary openings for ingress and egress. Category VI
screening consists of a solid fence, not less than six feet in height, with shrubs planted on the exterior
side of the fence in a planting bed not less than six feet in width. The existing chain link and barbed wire
fence currently enclosing the bulk storage yard does not meet that standard. Accordingly, Condition 4 is
being recommended to address this issue.
Staff recommends approval of the applicant's request, subject to the conditions listed below.
CONDITIONS
1. All conditions of the APZ-1 Permit for automobile sales, issued on January 9, 2009, shall remain
in effect.
2. A site plan shall be submitted to the Development Services Center to ensure all improvements
as shown on the plan approved as a condition of the APZ-1 Permit referenced above in
Condition 1 are completed. Said site plan shall include any additional site improvements
required by the conditions below as well as those required by all applicable City ordinances and
standards.
3. Barbed wire shall be prohibited and shall be removed from the site where it currently exists.
4. Consistent with the screening and buffering requirements for bulk storage yards as set forth by
Section 228 of the City of Virginia Beach Zoning Ordinance, the existing chain link fencing shall
be removed and replaced with a solid fence, not less than six (6) feet in height. Vegetation
meeting the Category VI screening requirement shall be planted along the exterior of the fence
surrounding the bulk storage yard.
5. The use of a gravel surface in the area designated for the bulk storage yard shall be allowed
subject to the approval of the Building Official.
6. There shall be no outside storage of equipment, parts, or materials visible from the public right-
of-way.
7. Any vehicle stored on site shall be operable, with the exception of wrecked vehicles towed to the
site. A determination of operability of a wrecked vehicle shall be made within five business days
of arrival on site. No wrecked vehicle shall remain on the site for more than five business days.
Storage of containers shall only be permitted on the rear portion of the bulk storage yard in an
orderly manner as specified on the submitted plan entitled, "PLAN OF PROPERTY LOCATED

August 20, 2008.
9. Any lighting for the storage yard shall be limited to light packs installed on the building and
fence, as well as pole lighting not to exceed a maximum height of 14 feet. All lighting shall be

boundary.
NOTE: Further conditions may be 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 Occupancy, are required before any uses allowed by this Use
Permit are valid.
The applicant is encouraged to contact and work with the Crime Prevention Office within the
Police Department for crime prevention techniques and Crime Prevention Through

SOUTHGATE COMMONS, LLC (Owner), Modification of a Conditional Rezoning,
approved on 4/24/13. Property is located on the south side of Princess Anne Road
approximately 400 feet southeast of Landstown Centre Way (GPIN 1484997280).
PRINCESS ANNE DISTRICT.
MEETING DATE: December 3, 2013
■ Background:
On April 24, 2012, City Council approved a Change of Zoning from AG -1 & AG -2
Agricultural to Conditional B-2 Community Business and 1-1 Light Industrial. That
zoning change proffers the development of a 28.2 -acre site for retail and office
uses, as well as a rehabilitation center. The approved development as proffered
consists of six parcels, with access to those parcels provided by a new roadway
(Landstowne Center Way) intersecting Princess Anne Road at the entrance to
the Landstown Commons Shopping Center. The Conditional Zoning Agreement
consists of separate sections of proffers that apply to a specific parcel or all of
the parcels, depending on the particular use as well as site and building design
The site layout proffered with the 2012 zoning change depicted Parcel 1 and
Parcel 2 with 6 commercial buildings with a total floor area of 69,800 square feet
(SF) of potential retail space. The proffered design for the buildings adjacent to
Princess Anne Road provides for both the parking lot side and the Princess Anne
Road side to be a `front' fagade. The design also provides outdoor seating areas
between each building. Parcel 1 is currently under construction as proffered.
■ Considerations:
Parcel 2 is the subject of this request for a Modification of Proffers. The
applicant's requested modification is to develop the site with a three-story office
building instead of the four commercial buildings. To develop the site as the
applicant proposes, the proffers applicable to Parcel 2 as well as the proffers
applicable to the complete site must be modified.
In lieu of the four commercial buildings proposed for Parcel 2, the applicant
proposes to construct a 60,000 square foot, three-story, medical office building
that will provide the ability of the Children's Hospital of the King's Daughters
(CHKD) to provide additional services to patients. The building will be located
toward the center of Parcel 2 adjacent to the lot line along Princess Anne Road.
The primary access for the building will be located on its southwest side, where
Children's Hospital of the King's Daughters/Southgate Commons, LLC
Page 2 of 4
there will be an access drive that provides the ability to drop-off or pick-up
individuals. There is a similar covered drop-off and pick-up point on the
northwest -facing side of the building. The southeast -facing and northeast -facing
sides provide secondary access to and from the building, each connected to the
sidewalk/trail within the Princess Anne Road right-of-way.
The building exterior will consist of a combination of brick, metal panels, and
glass. The proposed brick color matches the brick used on the CHKD building
located on Concert Drive, which is the brick color that is used throughout
Princess Anne Commons to emphasize the Commons as a single, unified area.
The proposed metal panels will be a 'purplish' color, and red accents will be used
in various locations on the building, including awning -like panels above the
windows. The brick and metal panels will be used on the exterior such that the
western and eastern corners of the building are clad in metal panels and the
northern and southern corners of the building are clad in brick. The exterior of the
ground -floor level of the corners of the building where the metal panels are used
will have expanses of ceiling to floor glass panels, typical of an office building.
Vehicular access to the site remains the same as shown on the currently
approved plan, and the potential future vehicular access points for the property
located to the south also remain. The proposed layout of the parking is generally
the same as what is shown on the currently approved plan, and pedestrian
connections throughout the parking area remain an integral part of the proposed
plan. Based on the floor area of the building, 223 parking spaces are required, 11
of which must be motorcycle spaces. The proposed site plan shows 327 parking
spaces, including 12 motorcycle spaces. An area for parking bicycles is also
shown on the plan, located within a green space in the center of the parking area
that is connected to the sidewalk system throughout the site.
Additional details pertaining to the proposal are provided in the attached staff
report.
The site plan proposed by the applicant is similar to the currently proffered plan,
including the location of the building adjacent to Princess Anne Road. The
building design is consistent with the Princess Anne Commons Design
Guidelines, including the use of the same type and color of brick used on the
majority of the buildings in the Commons. Most importantly, the proposed office
use of the parcel provides greater consistency with the policies of the
Comprehensive Plan than the currently proffered retail commercial use.
There was no opposition to the request.

BACKGROUND / DETAILS OF PROPOSAL
Background
On April 24, 2012, City Council approved a Change of Zoning from AG -1 & AG -2 Agricultural to
Conditional B-2 Community Business and 1-1 Light Industrial. The zoning change allows for the
development of a 28.2 -acre site for retail and office uses, as well as a rehabilitation center. The approved
development as proffered consists of six parcels, with access to those parcels provided by a new
roadway (Landstowne Center Way) intersecting Princess Anne Road at the entrance to the Landstown
Commons Shopping Center (site plan is provided on next page). The Conditional Zoning Agreement
consists of separate sections of proffers that apply to a specific parcel or all of the parcels, depending on
the particular use as well as site and building design.

The site layout proffered with the 2012 zoning change depicted Parcel 1 and Parcel 2 with 6 commercial
buildings with a total floor area of 69,800 square feet (SF) of potential retail space. The proffered design
for the buildings adjacent to Princess Anne Road provides for both the parking lot side and the Princess
Anne Road side to be a 'front' fagade. The design also provides outdoor seating areas between each
building. Parcel 1 is currently under construction as proffered.
Parcel 2 is the subject of this
request for a Modification of
Proffers. Four of the six
` proposed commercial buildings
' are located on Parcel 2, with
three of the four located
„ « adjacent to Princess Anne Road
as described above. The
applicant's requested
modification is to develop the
site with a three-story office
building instead of the four
commercial buildings. To
develop the site as the applicant
proposes, the proffers applicable
to Parcel 2 as well as the
proffers applicable to the
complete site must be modified.
Proposed Modifications
In lieu of the four commercial
••• buildings proposed for Parcel 2,
1 the applicant proposes to
-. -- — -- construct a 60,000 SF, three-
----
story, medical office building that
will provide the ability of the
Children's Hospital of the King's Daughters (CHKD) to provide additional services to patients. The
building will be located toward the center of Parcel 2 adjacent to the lot line along Princess Anne Road.
The primary access for the building will be located on its southwest side, where there will be an access
drive that provides the ability to drop-off or pick-up individuals. There is a similar covered drop-off and
pick-up point on the northwest -facing side of the building. The southeast -facing and northeast -facing
sides provide secondary access to and from the building, each connected to the sidewalk/trail within the
Princess Anne Road right-of-way.
The building exterior will consist of a combination of brick, metal panels, and glass. The proposed brick
color matches the brick used on the CHKD building located on Concert Drive, which is the brick color that
is used throughout Princess Anne Commons to emphasize the Commons as a single, unified area. The
proposed metal panels will be a 'purplish' color, and red accents will be used in various locations on the
building, including awning -like panels above the windows. The brick and metal panels will be used on the
exterior such that the western and eastern corners of the building are clad in metal panels and the
northern and southern corners of the building are clad in brick. The exterior of the ground -floor level of the
corners of the building where the metal panels are used will have expanses of ceiling to floor glass
panels, typical of an office building.
Vehicular access to the site remains the same as shown on the currently approved plan, and the potential
future vehicular access points for the property located to the south also remain. The proposed layout of
CHILDREN'S HOSPITAL OF THE KING'S DAUGHTERS, INC.

the parking is generally the same as what is shown on the currently approved plan, and pedestrian
connections throughout the parking area remain an integral part of the proposed plan. Based on the floor
area of the building, 223 parking spaces are required, 11 of which must be motorcycle spaces. The
proposed site plan shows 327 parking spaces, including 12 motorcycle spaces. An area for parking
bicycles is also shown on the plan, located within a green space in the center of the parking area that is
connected to the sidewalk system throughout the site. The additional parking spaces above the minimum
requirement are a typical desire of medical offices and facilities. The additional number of spaces,
however, is within the maximum allowed by Section 203(b)(8), which may not "not exceed the required
number by more than fifty percent (50%)." The plan shows the potential for an additional 29 parking
spaces along the Princess Anne Road frontage; however, since the total number of spaces would exceed
that allowed by ordinance, those spaces will not be built at this time. Section 203(b)(9) of the Zoning
Ordinance provides a means to construct those parking spaces, but the applicant is not pursuing that at
this time. As proffered, the area will be landscaped and remain open space.
The 2012 approved plan indicates that approximately 30 percent of the total site area of Parcels 1
through 4 will be landscaped open space. The plan also notes that while the percentage of open space
could be less than 30 percent, it would not be less than 25 percent of the area of Parcels 1 through 4.
This remains the case with the current proposal.

COMPREHENSIVE PLAN: The Comprehensive Plan identifies this parcel as being within North Princess
Anne Commons which serves as the principal gateway to the Virginia Beach Municipal Center and
houses a number of premier educational, recreational, and medical campuses. Most of Princess Anne
Commons lies within the Interfacility Traffic Area (ITA) which offers a unique opportunity for education,
entertainment, recreational, habitat preservation, and quality economic development opportunities. The
majority of the policies provided within the Comprehensive Plan Policy Document for the North Princess
Anne Commons area are derived from the vision for the area established by the ITA and Vicinity Master
Plan. The Plan's vision for this area consists of low -impact, campus -style commercial developments
emphasizing corporate office uses, built within an extensive and interconnected open space and trail

network. As part of the transition from the city's urban and suburban north and rural south, the
Comprehensive Plan notes that development should strive to achieve 50 percent open space. Site and
building design for development in the area should be consistent with the Princess Anne Commons
Design Guidelines, which were adopted to ensure a high level of quality and a consistent design theme
throughout Princess Anne Commons.

EVALUATION AND RECOMMENDATION
The applicant is proposing a modification of several of the proffers associated with a Conditional Change
of Zoning from AG -1 & AG -2 Agricultural to Conditional B-2 Community Business and 1-1 Light Industrial
approved by the City Council in April 2012. On April 24, 2012, City Council approved a Change of Zoning.
The site layout proffered with the 2012 zoning change depicted Parcel 1 and Parcel 2 with 6 commercial
buildings with a total floor area of 69,800 square feet (SF) of potential retail space. Parcel 1 is currently
under construction as proffered. The applicant's requested modification is to develop Parcel 2 with a
three-story medical office building consisting of a total of 60,000 SF of floor area instead of the four
commercial buildings. To develop the site as the applicant proposes, the proffers applicable to Parcel 2
as well as the proffers applicable to the complete site must be modified.
CHILDREN'S HOSPITAL OF THE KING'S DAUGHTERS,y NC.
Agenda Item 10
Page 4
The site plan proposed by the applicant is similar to the currently proffered plan, including the location of
the building adjacent to Princess Anne Road. The building design is consistent with the Princess Anne
Commons Design Guidelines, including the use of the same type and color of brick used on the majority
of the buildings in the Commons. Most importantly, the proposed office use of the parcel provides greater
consistency with the policies of the Comprehensive Plan than the currently proffered retail commercial
use.

AGENDA ITEM
ITEM: VIRGINIA BEACH CITY PUBLIC SCHOOLS (Applicant / Owner), Chance of
Zoning, B-2 Community Business to A-36 Apartment. 1008 Ferry Plantation Road
(GPIN 1478443796). Comprehensive Plan — Suburban Area. BAYSIDE DISTRICT.
MEETING DATE: December 3, 2013
■ Background:
This application was deferred at the November 12, 2013 City Council Hearing.
The site is currently zoned B-2 Community Business District. The applicant is
requesting a Change of Zoning to A-36 Apartment District for the purpose of
developing the site with a new school building. The site is currently occupied by a
school building, constructed in 1965. The building was originally occupied by Old
Donation Elementary School. The building is now occupied by Old Donation
Center (ODC), which was established by the School Board during the 1980s as
an elementary school level program for academically -gifted students. The
building, constructed nearly a half -century ago, is obsolescent with regard to
modern educational needs and many of the building's structural components
have exceeded their 'life expectancy.' The School Board, therefore, has
determined that the building is in need of replacement.
For the past several years, the Public Schools' staff and the School Board have
been discussing a number of alternatives for addressing the functional and
structural obsolescence of the two schools. The selected alternative, which is
included in the School Board's FY2013-18 Capital Improvement Program (CIP)
as well as the City's CIP (# 1233000), consists of the consolidation of the ODC
and KLMS programs into one building. The location selected for the consolidated
school is the subject site. The Public Schools' staff and the design team for the
school conducted a series of meetings with the surrounding community and the
public as the design of the building and site advanced (information regarding that
process is attached). The development schedule presented in the CIP proposes
the commencement of construction in the summer of 2014 with an anticipated
completion date of 2017, in time for the 2017-18 academic year. To meet that
schedule, it is the intention of the applicant to submit plans to the Development
Services Center for review simultaneous to action on this request for the Change
of Zoning.
Virginia Beach Public Schools
Page 2of3
■ Considerations:
To redevelop the site as proposed, the zoning of the site must be changed, as
the current Zoning Ordinance does not specifically allow schools in the B-2
Community Business District. Discussion among staff of the Planning
Department, City Attorney's Office, and Virginia Beach Public Schools resulted in
a conclusion that the most appropriate zoning district for this situation is A-36
Apartment. The A-36 Apartment District permits public schools; moreover, the
dimensional regulations of the district are the most suited to the project than any
other zoning district. Additionally, a zoning of A-36 Apartment provides the best
zoning and land use compatibility with the A-18 and A-24 zoning to the south, as
well as a greater degree of compatibility with the neighborhood to the west
(zoned R-7.5 Residential) than any of the permitted uses under the existing
zoning. The proposed zoning will ensure that in the unlikely event the School
Board were to convey the property to the private sector, the site would have the
proper zoning to ensure a compatible land use. Thus, this change of zoning, by
protecting the adjacent residential uses from the possibility of future incompatible
use, furthers one of the Comprehensive Plan's general planning principles for the
Suburban Area to preserve and protect the overall character of the stable
neighborhoods of the Suburban Area.
Another key guiding principle of the Comprehensive Plan for the Suburban Area
pertains to the preservation and enhancement of the aesthetic quality of existing
and new places and structures within the Suburban Area. The specific features of
the proposed site and building plans, provided in the attached staff report, as well
as in an attached package of supplemental information provided by the applicant
since the Planning Commission Hearing, demonstrate a high level of aesthetic
quality as well as consideration for academic needs, recreational needs,
transportation access and circulation, and compatibility with the surrounding
area. Moreover, the applicant's desire to develop a building that meets LEED
standards indicate a commitment to have a minimal impact on the overall
environment of the surrounding area while also being sustainable into the future.
The site and building plans demonstrate a level of quality that is an enhancement
to the immediate area and provides measures to ensure compatibility with the
surrounding area. This, as well as the fact that the A-36 Apartment District
provides greater protection to the adjacent residential area than the current B-2
Business District, supports the applicant's request for a Change of Zoning to A-
36 Apartment District.
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.

BACKGROUND / DETAILS OF PROPOSAL
The site is currently zoned B-2 Community Business District. The applicant is requesting a Change of
Zoning to A-36 Apartment District for the purpose of developing the site with a new school building. The
site is currently occupied by a school building, constructed in 1965. The building was originally occupied
by Old Donation Elementary School. The building is now occupied by Old Donation Center (ODC), which
was established by the School Board during the 1980s as an elementary school level program for
academically -gifted students. The building, constructed nearly a half -century ago, is obsolescent with
regard to modern educational needs and many of the building's structural components have exceeded
their 'life expectancy.' The School Board, therefore, has determined that the building is in need of
replacement.
A second school building, located on a different site approximately a mile to the south, is related to this
request. Kemps Landing Magnet School (KLMS), located on Jericho Road, was constructed in 1957 and
opened in 1958 as Aragona Elementary School. The building is now occupied by KLMS, which was
established by the School Board during the 1990s as a middle school level program for academically -
gifted students. Like ODC, the building, constructed over a half -century ago, is obsolescent with regard to
modern educational needs and many of the building's structural components have exceeded their life
expectancy.' The School Board, therefore, has determined that the building is in need of replacement.
For the past several years, the Public Schools' staff and the School Board have been discussing a
number of alternatives for addressing the functional and structural obsolescence of the two schools. The
VIRGINIA BEACH PUBLIC SCHOOLS
Agenda Item 1
Page 1
selected alternative, which is included in the School Board's FY2013-18 Capital Improvement Program
(CIP) as well as the City's CIP (# 1233000), consists of the consolidation of the ODC and KLMS programs
into one building. The location selected for the consolidated school is the subject site. The development
schedule presented in the CIP proposes the commencement of construction in the summer of 2014 with
an anticipated completion date of 2017, in time for the 2017-18 academic year. To meet that schedule, it
is the intention of the applicant to submit plans to the Development Services Center for review
simultaneous to action on this request for the Change of Zoning.
When Old Donation Elementary School was constructed in 1965, the southern portion of the site was
zoned RS -3 Residence Suburban and the northern portion was zoned CL -3 Limited Commercial. In 1973,
the City Council adopted the "Comprehensive Zoning Ordinance," which created a single set of zoning
regulations, rather than the two (Princess Anne County and Town of Virginia Beach) that had been used
since the merger of the county and town in 1963. The adoption of the new regulations was accompanied
by changes to the Zoning Maps to ensure zoning districts were also consistent throughout the city. During
that process of adopting the new Zoning Ordinance and Zoning Maps, the zoning of the subject site was
changed such that the entire site was zoned B-2. The new Comprehensive Zoning Ordinance classified
any public use under the single category of "Public Buildings and Grounds." The current City Zoning
Ordinance still has that category in most of the zoning districts; however, over time, certain public uses
have been specifically identified as being a principal or conditional use. Public schools are specifically
identified in most districts, but is not identified as being allowed as a principal or conditional use in the B-2
District.
To redevelop the site as proposed, the zoning of the site must be changed, as the current Zoning
Ordinance does not specifically allow schools in the B-2 Community Business District. City and Schools
staff determined, for reasons explained in the Evaluation section of this report, that the A-36 Apartment
District is the most appropriate zoning district for this situation.
Details of Proposal
The proposed site plan is dominated by the school building, which has a building 'footprint' of 122,470
square feet (SF), which is well within the maximum allowable lot coverage for the A-36 District. The total
floor area of the building is 225,870 SF, which is also well below the maximum allowable floor area ratio
in the A-36 District for structures other than residential dwellings. The proposed school building will be
two-story to three-story LEED (Leadership in Energy and Environmental Design) certified building. The
building will be three -stories in height closest to Honeygrove Road (42 feet). The average height will be
29 feet with the highest point at the core of the building being 50 feet. It will house 1,300 students in
addition to faculty and staff members. The building features a central core of common facilities (gym,
cafeteria, auditorium, etc.) and then two wings. The southern wing will house the elementary school level
grades and the northern wing will house the middle school level grades.
A parking area for faculty, staff, and visitors is located at the corner of Honeygrove Road and
Independence Boulevard. Bus parking is located along the southern property line in approximately the
same location as it is currently. Similarly, the service court / dumpster area is located adjacent to the bus
parking area, which is in the same general area as the current service area. Interspersed on the site in
various locations are a greenhouse, vegetable gardens, playgrounds, outdoor classrooms, a courtyard,
and hard -surface play areas. Located along the periphery of the site, with connections to the interior of
the site and the building, is a trail system that will include 'learning stations' in selected locations along the
trail. The site will be enclosed by a fence, consisting of a six-foot high, black ornamental fence along
Independence Boulevard, and then rounding the corner to run along Honeygrove Road, where the height
of the fence will drop to four -feet. The four -foot high fence continues along the Ferry Plantation Road
frontage. The fence along the southern lot line will be a six-foot high chain-link fence, which is what
currently exists in that location. New trees, shrubs, and other plants will be installed throughout the site as
part of the landscape and stormwater management plans for the project.

Vehicular access to the site is at three locations: (1) the main parking lot access, located on Honeygrove
Road opposite the existing access point for the shopping center; (2) the main access for student drop-off
and pick-up, located on Honeygrove Road opposite the existing access point for the office building; and
(3) the bus access, located on Ferry Plantation Road at approximately the same location as the existing
bus access point. The main access to the building, and thus, its 'front,' is oriented to the intersection of
Honeygrove Road and Independence Boulevard. The overall orientation of the site, therefore, is opposite
of its current orientation, which will reduce the impact on the neighborhood to the west since the current
orientation places the majority of the activity on Ferry Plantation Road. The orientation of the existing
building on Ferry Plantation Road is a result of the fact that when the school was constructed in 1965,
neither Honeygrove Road nor Independence Boulevard existed. With those roads now part of the city's
roadway system, the school's primary activity can be directed away from the residential area. The side of
the site closest to the residential area will now be devoted to a softball and multi-purpose field, neither of
which will be lit or intended for use at night.
LAND USE AND COMPREHENSIVE PLAN
EXISTING LAND USE: School building, parking, and recreational fields
SURROUNDING LAND North: . Honeygrove Road
USE AND ZONING: . Shopping center, office, self -storage, commercial childcare / B-
2 Community Business District
South: . Multi -family dwellings / A-18 and A-24 Apartment Districts
East: 0 Independence Boulevard

West: 0 Ferry Plantation Road
Single-family homes / R-7.5 Residential District
NATURAL RESOURCE AND The site has no significant natural resource features. It is vegetated
CULTURAL FEATURES: with native grasses and weeds, and there are groups of trees at the
front of the school building.
COMPREHENSIVE PLAN: The subject site is within the Suburban Area. The Comprehensive Plan
characterizes the Suburban Area as the portion of the city that consists of predominately low-density
residential subdivisions, with a mix of large tracts of land devoted to single-family dwelling units as well as
attached and multi -family units. Low -intensity retail shopping centers, office complexes, and industrial
parks are located within various commercial/employment centers or strips. Movement of individuals,
goods, and services through the area depends heavily on the use of the automobile, and the
transportation system is primarily designed to accommodate the automobile. The Suburban Area also
offers opportunities for recreation, consisting of parkland and natural open spaces on tracts of varied
sizes interspersed throughout the area.
Since the predominant land use within the Suburban Area is residential, the general planning principles
for the Suburban Area focus on preserving and protecting the overall character, economic value, and
aesthetic quality of the stable neighborhoods of this area. Based on these principles, the Plan provides
policies and recommendations for land use, design, transportation, housing, and sustainability that
ensure stable residential areas are preserved, while, at the same time, enhancing the quality of the
Suburban Area's commercial, employment, and recreational areas. The Evaluation section of #his roport

Additional Comments: A traffic study pertaining to this proposed redevelopment is currently being
conducted by Kimley-Horn and Associates. There may be a need for right-of-way improvements based
on the outcome of the study. The applicant is aware of that possibility and is prepared to address those
needs as the project moves through development site plan review.
WATER: The site is already connected to the public water system. The existing 2 -inch meter (City ID
95013612) may be used or upgraded to accommodate the proposed development.
SEWER: the site is already connected to the public sanitary sewer system. Pump Station #345, the
receiving pump station for this site, has capacity issues and may require system modification. An
engineering hydraulic analysis of the pump station and the sanitary sewer collection system is required to
ensure future flows can be accommodated.

EVALUATION AND RECOMMENDATION
The applicant is requesting a Change of Zoning of the subject site from B-2 Community Business District to A-
36 Apartment District for the purpose of demolishing the existing school building and constructing a new
school building. The replacement of the existing school is currently problematic, as the current zoning of the
site does not specifically permit public schools. The existing zoning of the site was established in 1973 when
the Comprehensive Zoning Ordinance and its associated new Zoning Map were adopted. Prior to that change,
the school building on the site was split by commercial and single-family residential zoning. The decision to
use the commercial zoning rather than the single-family residential zoning was determined to be appropriate
based on the non-residential land uses and zoning of the other corners of the intersection of Independence
Boulevard and Honeygrove Road.
While the existing zoning of the site has not been an issue during the past, as there has been little change with
regard to the current use, the proposal to consolidate ODC and KLMS within a new building necessitates a
change to a more appropriate zoning district. Discussion among staff of the Planning Department, City
Attorney's Office, and Virginia Beach Public Schools resulted in a conclusion that the most appropriate zoning
district for this situation is A-36 Apartment. The A-36 Apartment District permits public schools; moreover, the
dimensional regulations of the district are the most suited to the project than any other zoning district.
Additionally, a zoning of A-36 Apartment provides the best land use compatibility with the A-18 and A-24
zoning to the south, as well as a greater degree of compatibility with the neighborhood to the west (zoned R-
7.5 Residential) than any of the permitted uses under the existing zoning. The proposed zoning will ensure
that in the unlikely event the School Board were to convey the property to the private sector, the site would
have the proper zoning to ensure a compatible land use. Thus, this change of zoning, by protecting the
adjacent residential uses from the possibility of future incompatible use, furthers one of the Comprehensive
Plan's general planning principles for the Suburban Area to preserve and protect the overall character of the
stable neighborhoods of the Suburban Area.
Another key guiding principle of the Comprehensive Plan for the Suburban Area pertains to the preservation
and enhancement of the aesthetic quality of existing and new places and structures within the Suburban Area.
The specific features of the proposed site and building plans, provided at the beginning of this report, as well
as the plans presented on the pages below demonstrate a high level of aesthetic quality as well as
consideration for academic needs, recreational needs, transportation access and circulation, and compatibility
with the surrounding area. Moreover, the applicant's desire to develop a building that meets LEED standards
indicate a commitment to have a minimal impact on the overall environment of the surrounding area while also
being sustainable into the future.
Staff concludes that, consistent with the recommendations and planning policies of the Comprehensive Plan
for the Suburban Area, the site and building plans described above demonstrate a level of quality that is an
enhancement to the immediate area and that provides measures to ensure compatibility with the surrounding
area. Based on this conclusion, as well as staff's finding that the proposed use of the A-36 Apartment District
provides greater protection to the adjacent residential area than the current B-2 zoning, staff recommends
approval of this request for a Change of Zoning from B-2 Community Business District to A-36 Apartment
District.

RE: REZONING APPLICATION SUPPLEMENTAL INFORMATION
OLD DONATION CENTER / KEMPS LANDING MAGNET SCHOOL
Dear Mr. Arnold:
As part of the above project's rezoning process, we are providing additional information to
illustrate how the new school project is improving the existing site and how the community
has been included in the project development.
Our design process included thirteen large group stakeholder planning and information
sessions. Of these sessions, four were 2 -hour + site design sessions and two more were
community information sessions. The Aragona Civic League president and the owners of the
two apartment complexes to the south were invited to all six of those sessions.

The Aragona Civic League President attended one of the site design workshops and relayed
her concern that the project includes space for the community. The proposed project does
include community amenities such as a walk path with exercise areas, a soft ball field and a
large gymnasium for after-hours use.
The owner of Albert Court Apartments attended one of the site design workshops and relayed
his stormwater and screening concerns. Much field verification, design time and
consideration has been given to his concerns. Attached narrative and illustrations show how
the project exceeds the minimum City requirements for landscape screening as well as
stormwater management.
Please find attached, the following:

The attached stormwater narrative describes how the project is designed to infiltrate the full
10 -year storm event on site while also providing infrastructure that will separate and improve
the drainage system for the properties to the south.
The images illustrate how all `service' type activity is screened from the public and neighbors
to the south and how the proposed project improves the view of the site from the neighbors to
the south. It is also worth noting that this project will contain a geothermal well field, and
therefore, there will be no mechanical equipment (cooling towers or chillers) in the service
area.

Stormwater Management Narrative
Prepared by Kimley-Horn and Associates
October 22, 2013
On -Site Stormwater Management
The Old Donation Center (ODC) site will be designed to infiltrate the full
10 -year storm event across the entire site through open -bottomed
underground storage. Although State and City code merely requires the site
to hold back the 10 -year post -development peak flow rate below pre -
developed rates, Virginia Beach City Public Schools desires to exceed the
minimum requirements and provide greater stormwater management at the
site. Full scale infiltration as proposed will most closely mimic the natural
site characteristics and hydrology for an undeveloped site.
All site stormwater will be collected with inlets throughout the site and
conveyed to one of two underground storm chamber fields consisting of
open -bottomed chambers. One large chamber field will be located beneath
the bus parking loop and one will be located beneath the main parking lot.
These chambers are connected to each other with underground pipes and
connected to the City system in Independence Boulevard and Ferry
Plantation Road for larger storm events. Using the tested site infiltration rate
the chambers were sized to fully infiltrate the 10 -year rainfall amount before
any water outfalls to the City system.
Based on the proposed chamber and connection pipe layout the underground
chambers will fill during the 10 -year storm event (and smaller) but will
infiltrate entirely into the ground and will not outfall to the municipal storm
system. Larger storm events will outfall to the municipal system.
Off -Site Storm Drainage
The ODC site currently receives off-site drainage from the existing
apartments southwest of the site. The off-site drainage area from the
property at the southwestern site corner is approximately 1.5 acres. This
drainage is currently conveyed in an on-site ditch to a storm pipe located at
the southeast corner of the site in the Independence Boulevard right-of-way.
This drainage will be piped as part of the proposed improvements. The
■
TEL 757 213 8600
Kimley-Horn
and Associates, Inc.
proposed pipe system designed to convey the off-site drainage will be
completely separated from the on-site system serving ODC.
The design approach provided the following accommodations for the off-
site drainage:
• 8.5 acres of storm water runoff from ODC that currently drains to the
shared outfall with the off-site drainage will be redirected away from
the Independence Boulevard outfall in order to provide a dedicated
outfall for the off-site drainage. By diverting this flow the dedicated
outfall will have greater capacity to accommodate the off-site
drainage. This is a reduction in stormwater flowing to this outfall
point of approximately 85%.
• The conveyance method for storm water from the off-site properties
will be changed from an open ditch to a pipe. The proposed pipe
will provide approximately 5 times the capacity of the existing ditch
at normal flow conditions.
• At the City right-of-way, the current outfall for the off-site water is a
15" pipe. The outfall is being improved and upgraded by replacing
the 15" pipe with a 24" reinforced concrete pipe. This matches the
pipe diameter of the downstream system in the Independence
Boulevard right-of-way.
With the reduction in drainage area, the improvement to the conveyance
system capacity, and the increase in outfall pipe size we believe drainage
conditions will not be adversely impacted for the adjacent apartments that
drain through the ODC site.

CITY OF VIRGINIA BEACH
AGENDA ITEM
ITEM: CITY OF VIRGINIA BEACH
(a) An Ordinance to Repeal Article 13 of the City Zoning Ordinance (Historic
and Cultural District) and to Add a New Article 13, Pertaining to Legislative
Intent, Findings, Establishment of Historic and Cultural Districts,
Certificates of Appropriateness, Demolition of Structures, the Historical
Review Board and Historic Preservation Commission;
(b) An Ordinance Adding a New Section 2-5.1 to the City Code, Pertaining to
the Duties and Membership of the Historical Review Board; and
(c) A Resolution Authorizing the Mayor to Make Application on behalf of the
City to the Virginia Department of Historic Resources for Certification of
Virginia Beach as a Certified Local Government.
MEETING DATE: December 3, 2013
■ Background:
In 2010, a joint committee of the Historic Preservation Commission (HPC) and
the Historical Review Board (HRB), both appointed by City Council, began
studying the Virginia Certified Local Government Program (CLG) to determine
whether the City's participation in the CLG Program would be beneficial, and, if
so, what actions would be necessary to achieve designation as a CLG. The
committee found that designation as a certified historic preservation program
would demonstrate that the City has a strong commitment to historic preservation
and would provide a variety of benefits by having:
• A formal partnership with Virginia Department of Historic Resources and
National Park Service in historic preservation efforts;
• Access to HRB and HPC member training, staff training, data resources
and technical assistance;
• Funding assistance to implement local program needs and preservation
priorities recommended by the Historic Preservation Commission; and
• A network with other localities on preservation techniques and programs
On August 28, 2013, the joint committee of the Historic Preservation Commission
(HPC) and the Historical Review Board (HRB) passed a Joint Resolution
(attached) finding that the City would benefit from participation in the CLG
Program and encouraging the City Council to adopt this proposed ordinance
amendment, which repeals the existing Article 13 of the City Zoning Ordinance
("Historic and Cultural District"), replacing it with a new Article 13. The Resolution
also requests that the City Council "take any necessary actions to request
Amendments to the Zoning Ordinance, City Code
and Resolution of City Council — Historic Preservation Program
Page 2 of 4
designation as a Certified Local Government from the Virginia Department of
Historic Resources and the National Park Service."
■ Considerations:
The CLG Program can be a valuable means of promoting and enriching the
historic preservation activities of local governments through technical, financial,
and training support. The CLG program was created by the National Historic
Preservation Act of 1966 (and as amended in 1980). It establishes a partnership
between local governments, the federal historic preservation program, and each
state's State Historic Preservation Office (SHPO), which in Virginia is the
Department of Historic Resources (DHR). The program allows DHR, as the
SHPO, to recommend for certification those local governments that have placed
in their communities key elements of a sound local historic preservation program.
Designation as a CLG gives local governments a way to participate more
formally in the state and national historic preservation programs. General
requirements for certification are identified in the federal program; specific
requirements for the Virginia program have been established by DHR.
Article 13:
As proposed, the new Article 13 of the City Zoning Ordinance would be in
conformance with the local preservation ordinance CLG requirements, thus
enabling the City to be designated as a CLG by the Virginia Department of
Historic Resources.
The new Article 13 Historic and Cultural Overlay Zoning District provides for the
following:
• Section 1301 -- Simplifies the process for creating or expanding Historic
and Cultural Districts (HCDs).
o Section 1301(a) — Gives the Historic Preservation Commission a
role in advising Council on creation or expansion of HCDs.
o Section 1301(g) --Includes certain requirements that were enacted
by the 2012 General Assembly.
Section 1303 -- Gives the Historical Review Board authority to issue a
Certificate of Appropriateness (COA) instead of the Planning Director.
Currently, the HRB is an advisory body only, making recommendations to
the Planning Director, who issues the COA; however, the Planning
Department would continue to provide support for the COA review
process.
0 Section 1303 -- Lists activities requiring and not requiring a COA.
Amendments to the Zoning Ordinance, City Code
and Resolution of City Council — Historic Preservation Program
Page 3 of 4
• Section 1304 — Notes special requirements for demolition requests — adds
Virginia Code Section 15.2-2306 requirements for consistency with State
Code.
City Code Section 2-5.1
Associated with the ordinance to repeal the existing Article 13 and adopt a new
Article 13 is ordinance to add Section 2-5.1 to the City Code, which will provide
for the duties and membership of the Historical Review Board. One of the
requirements for approval as a CLG is that all of the members of a locality's
historical review board must have a demonstrated interest, competence, or
knowledge in historic preservation, and at least one of the board's members must
be an architect or architectural historian. Accordingly, the addition of Section 2-
5.1 establishes the duties of the Board by reference to the new Section 1303,
and also establishes the terms and the qualifications for the members of the
Board.
Resolution:
To be designated as a CLG, an application must be submitted to the State
Historic Preservation Officer (SHPO), which in the case of Virginia is the
Department of Historic Resources (DHR). The application must include the
following items:
• A request for designation must be signed by the chief elected official;
• A written assurance from the chief elected official that the local
government fulfills the requirements of the Virginia CLG program
guidelines;
• A copy of the local preservation ordinance and any pertinent parts of the
larger zoning ordinance;
• A list and accompanying maps of the areas, and/or individual sites
protected by the local ordinance;
• Copies of the bylaws of the local review board and any pertinent
resolutions, design guidelines, or other documents used by the board in
carrying out its responsibilities;
• A resume for each member of the review board that clearly shows the
member's professional qualifications and his or her required interest,
competence, or knowledge in historic preservation; and
• Verification that the local government possesses adequate provisions to
prohibit conflicts of interest on the part of any employee, agent, review
board member, consultant, officer, or official of the local government.
The attached Resolution allows the Mayor to work with City staff to prepare and
submit an application requesting designation of the City of Virginia Beach as a
Certified Local Government by the Virginia Department of Historic Resources
and the National Park Service.

■ Recommendations:
The Planning Commission placed this item on the Consent Agenda, passing a
motion by a recorded vote of 11-0, to recommend to the City Council adoption of
the proposed ordinance pertaining to Article 13 of the City Zoning Ordinance.
The proposed ordinance amending Section 2-5.1 of the City Code does not
require action on the part of the Planning Commission; however, it was included
with the report to the commission for their information. Staff recommends
approval of the ordinance adding Section 2-5.1 to the City Code.
Adoption of the Resolution is also recommended, as it provides the Mayor with
the necessary authorization from the City Council to make application to DHR.

November 13, 2012 Public Hearing
CITY OF VIRGINIA BEACH
TO REPEAL AND REPLACE ARTICLE 13
CITY ZONING ORDINANCE
REQUEST:
An Ordinance to Repeal Article 13 of the City Zoning Ordinance (Historic and Cultural District) and to Add
a New Article 13, Pertaining to Legislative Intent, Findings, Establishment of Historic and Cultural
Districts, Certificates of Appropriateness, Demolition of Structures, the Historical Review Board and
Historic Preservation Commission.
SUMMARY OF AMENDMENT
Historic preservation activities of local governments can be promoted and enriched with technical,
financial, and training support through a national and statewide program known as the Certified Local
Government Program (CLG). The CLG program was created by the National Historic Preservation Act of
1966 (as amended in 1980). It establishes a partnership between local governments, the federal historic
preservation program, and each state's State Historic Preservation Office (SHPO), which in the case of
Virginia is the Department of Historic Resources (DHR). The program allows DHR, as the SHPO, to
recommend for certification those local governments that have placed in their communities key elements
of a sound local historic preservation program. Designation as a CLG gives local governments a way to
participate more formally in the state and national historic preservation programs. General requirements
for certification are identified in the federal program; specific requirements for the Virginia program have
been established by DHR.
In 2010, a joint committee of the City's Historic Preservation Commission (HPC) and the City's Historical
Review Board (HRB),both appointed by City Council, began studying the Virginia CLG Program to
determine whether or not participation in it by the City would be beneficial and, if so, what actions would
be necessary to achieve designation. The committee found that designation as a certified historic
preservation program would demonstrate that the City has a strong commitment to historic preservation
and would provide a variety of benefits by having:
• A formal partnership with Virginia Department of Historic Resources and National Park
Service in historic preservation efforts;
• Access to HRB and HPC member training, staff training, data resources and technical
assistance;
CITY OF VIRGINIA BEACH -- CD
Agenda IteiA 12
Page 1
• Funding assistance to implement local program needs and preservation priorities
recommended by the Historic Preservation Commission; and
• A network with other localities on preservation techniques and programs
The joint committee passed a Joint Resolution finding that the City would benefit from participation and
asked staff to conduct a review of our existing ordinance (Article 13) and other program elements for
compliance with CLG designation requirements and to draft any necessary changes for further
consideration.
Planning Department staff and the City Attorney's Office reviewed Article 13 in comparison to CLG
designation requirements, the model CLG ordinance, and Code of Virginia local historic district ordinance
requirements. As a result of this review, several adjustments were drafted pertaining to legislative intent,
findings, establishment and expansion of historic districts, certificates of appropriateness, demolition of
structures, and duties and responsibilities of the historical review board and the historic preservation
commission.
At a joint meeting of the HPC and the HRB on August 28, 2013, City staff presented their findings along
with drafts of the necessary changes for compliance. The meeting concluded with both groups adopting
resolutions supporting the new Article 13, Historic and Cultural District Overlay Ordinance, as drafted, as
well as encouraging the City Council to adopt the ordinance and to take the actions necessary to apply for
designation as a Certified Local Government. These resolutions are included as reference at the end of
this report.
As proposed, the new Article 13 of the City Zoning Ordinance would be in conformance with the local
preservation ordinance CLG requirements, thus enabling the City to be designated as a CLG by the
Virginia Department of Historic Resources.
The new Article 13 Historic and Cultural Overlay Zoning District provides for the following:
• Section 1301 -- Simplifies the process for creating or expanding Historic and Cultural Districts
(HCDs).
• Section 1301(a) — Gives the Historic Preservation Commission a role in advising Council on
creation or expansion of HCDs.
• Section 1301(g) -- Includes certain requirements that were enacted by the 2012 General
Assembly.
• Section 1303 -- Gives the Historical Review Board authority to issue a Certificate of
Appropriateness (COA) instead of the Planning Director. Currently, the HRB is an advisory body
only, making recommendations to the Planning Director, who issues the COA; however, the
Planning Department would continue to provide support for the COA review process.
• Section 1303 -- Lists activities requiring and not requiring a COA.
• Section 1304 — Notes special requirements for demolition requests — adds Virginia Code Section
15.2-2306 requirements for consistency with State Code.
While not part of the amendments that require action by the Planning Commission, also attached to this
report is an amendment to Section 2-5.1 of the City Code, which pertains to the duties and membership
CITY OF VIRGINIA BEACH -- HCD
Agenda Item 12
Page 2
of the Historical Review Board. The amendment establishes the duties of the Board by reference to the
new Section 1303 of the Zoning Ordinance, which sets out the provisions regarding Certificates of
Appropriateness. The amendment also establishes the terms and the qualifications for the members of
the Board.
RECOMMENDATION
As noted at the outset of this report, designation as a certified historic preservation program by the
Department of Historic Resources would demonstrate that the City has a strong commitment to historic
preservation and would provide a variety of benefits that are currently not available to the City. The
requested changes to the Zoning Ordinance are the result of significant and collaborative work efforts
involving the City staff, the City Attorney's Office, the Historical Review Board, and the Historic
Preservation Commission, with guidance as necessary from the Department of Historic Resources.
It is important to note that neither the existing Article 13 nor the new Article 13 do any of the following:
• Mandate a change in property rights;
• Mandate creation of Historic and Cultural Districts;
• Require improvements, changes, or restoration of property;
• Require approval for ordinary repair or maintenance;
• Require approval of interior changes or alterations;
• Prevent new construction within historic areas;
• Require that historic properties be open for tours; or
• Restrict the sale of the property.
Staff, therefore, recommends approval of the proposed amendments.

175 (a) The City Council finds that:
176 (1) The historical and cultural heritage of the City is embodied by buildings,
177 structures and sites that are unique resources of high value to current and
178 future generations of the City, the Commonwealth of Virginia, and the
179 nation;
180 (2) The City has many historic and cultural resources that are significant by
181 reason of the people and events that are associated with them or the
182 special architectural character they embody;
183 (3) The historical and cultural foundations of the City should be preserved as
184 a living part of our community life and development;
185 (4) The preservation of this irreplaceable heritage is in the public interest so
186 that its vital legacy of cultural, educational, aesthetic, inspirational and
187 economic energy benefits will be maintained and enriched for future
188 generations of the City residents;
189 (5) The increased knowledge of our historic and cultural resources, the
190 establishment of improved means of identifying and administering them,
191 and the encouragement of their preservation will enhance the planning
192 and execution of historic preservation projects and will enhance tourism
193 and economic growth and development;
194 (6) The deterioration, destruction, relocation, or alteration of historic and
195 cultural resources may cause the permanent loss of these unique
196 resources; therefore, special measures are warranted in order to preserve
197 the historic and cultural resources of the City; and
198 (7) The use of responsible and innovative methods for implementing the
199 Comprehensive Plan's goal of protecting our historic and cultural
200 resources, as allowed by applicable provisions of the Virginia Code, will
201 encourage the recognition and protection of the architectural and cultural
202 history of the City through the identification, preservation and
203 enhancement of historically, culturally, architecturally or archaeologically
204 significant buildings, structures, places and areas.
205 (b) It is the intent the City Council in adopting this Article to:
206 (1) Protect the historic significance and integrity of the properties within
207 historic and cultural districts that are or may be recognized for their
208 association with historic events that have made a significant contribution
209 to our history; are associated with historically significant persons; possess
210 distinctive characteristics of a type, period, or method of construction or
211 that represent the work of a master, possess high artistic values; or have
212 the potential to yield significant archaeological or historical information;
213
214
215
216
(2) Promote tourism and enhance local business and industry by protecting
historical architectural archaeological and cultural resources;
(3) Encourage sound stewardship of the City's historic resources and foster a
sense of place in the City's residents;
217 (4) Preserve and protect buildings structures and properties which serve as
218 visible reminders of the historic cultural, and architectural or
219 archaeological heritage of the City of Virginia Beach, the Commonwealth
220 of Virginia, or the United States; and
221 (5) Assure that within the City's historic and cultural districts, new structures,
222 additions landscaping and related elements will be in harmony with their
223 setting and environs.

Network with other CLGs and share experiences, concerns, and potential solutions
237
to problematic issues;
238
5.
Apply for matching grants for preservation programs from a ten per cent (10%)
239
share of Virginia's annual federal appropriation;
240
6.
Gain free and full access to the Virginia Cultural Resource Inventory System (V-
241
CRIS);
242
7.

277 preservation.
278
279 (d) Only the geographical area in which a majority of the properties meet the criteria
280 established in accordance with this section shall be designated as a Historic and Cultural
281 District; provided however, that parcels of land contiguous to arterial streets or highways
282 found by the City Council to be significant routes of tourist access to the City or to designated
283 historic landmarks, buildings, structures, or districts therein, or in a contiguous locality, may
284 also be included in a Historic and Cultural District.
285
286 (e) The Planning Commission shall review the report of the Planning Director,

293 District if it finds that the proposed district or expansion thereof meets the requirements of this
294 section and may adopt such zoning or other regulations pertaining to property within the
295 district, consistent with general law, as it may deem appropriate. Upon City Council approval
296 of a new or expanded Historic and Cultural District, the official zoning map shall be amended
297 accordingly.

503
COMMENT
504 The section sets forth rules pertaining to the demolition of buildings in cases in which the Historical
505 Review Board finds that preservation is not physically or economically unfeasible so as to entitle the owner
506 to have the building demolished. The section establishes a procedure by which the owner may demolish a
507 building without the approval of the Board. The procedure is specifically set out by Virginia Code Section
508 15.2-2306, and is taken directly from that provision.
509
14
510 Sec. 1305. General Certificate of Appropriateness for specified classes or cases.

512 determines that particular materials or designs or architectural or other structural
513 characteristics are generally architecturally compatible with a district, it may issue a general
514 Certificate of Appropriateness under specifications approved by the Board, and building
515 permits consistent with such general Certificate of Appropriateness may be issued if all other
516 applicable requirements of law are met.
