AGENDA ITEM
ITEMS: (1) A Resolution Requesting the Virginia Department of Transportation to
Accept Additional Streets for Urban Maintenance Payments
(2) A Resolution Requesting the Virginia Department of Transportation to
Accept Corrections to the Road Inventory for Urban Maintenance
Payments
MEETING DATE: May 17, 2016
• Background: The Virginia Department of Transportation ("VDOT") maintenance
funding is conditioned upon City Council submitting to VDOT resolutions for all new
streets and for all corrections/deletions to the City's road inventory. VDOT provided the
City with a letter, dated June 18, 2015, which stated the FY16 reimbursement rates.
The rates are as follows: local/collector streets will be reimbursed at $11,719 per lane
mile, and arterial streets will be reimbursed at $19,958 per lane mile.
• Considerations: The first resolution requests the addition of newly constructed
streets in the amount of 2.85 lane miles, which will be eligible for urban maintenance
funds beginning July 1, 2016. All 2.85 lane miles are classified as local/collector
streets. Based on the present VDOT reimbursement rates indicated above, the City will
receive $33,399.15 per year for these added lane miles.
The second resolution requests changes to the current VDOT maintenance funding
inventory due to duplications or updated lane mile data. There are 8.76 lane miles of
local/collector streets to be deleted from the inventory. There are corrections in the
amount of 12.50 lane miles of local/collector streets to be added back to the inventory,
for a net increase of 3.74 miles. Based on the present VDOT reimbursement rates
indicated above, the City reimbursement will be increased by $43,829.06 per year for
these changes to local/collector streets.
The total net increase in urban maintenance lane miles from the additional and the
corrections will result in a funding increase of$77,228.21 from VDOT.

CITY OF VIRGINIA BEACH
AGENDA ITEM I
ITEM: An Ordinance to Accept and Appropriate State Funding for Roadway
Maintenance
MEETING DATE: May 17, 2016
• Background: The City of Virginia Beach receives funding from the Virginia
Department of Transportation ("VDOT") annually for the maintenance of roads based on
a distribution formula. This funding is estimated in the annual operating budget to
support related activities. The FY 2015-16 estimate recently increased as a result of an
adjustment to the VDOT Urban Maintenance funding formula by the General Assembly.
This action allows the distribution of overweight permit fee revenue based up on eligible
lane miles. The City's share of this supplemental payment is $33,781, to be distributed
quarterly. Additionally, the revised VDOT reimbursement rates for FY 2015-16
increases the mileage payments for local and collector streets resulting in an additional
$963,980 for the City of Virginia Beach.
• Considerations: The combined additional $997,761 can only be used for work
eligible for VDOT urban maintenance payments and will be placed into the Public Works
FY 2015-16 maintenance budget. Additional funding could result in the additional
maintenance of 15 lane miles of arterial roadway.
• Public Information: Public information will be provided through the normal City
Council agenda process.
• Recommendations: Adopt the attached ordinance
• Attachments: Ordinance
Recommended Action: Approval

CITY OF VIRGINIA BEACH
AGENDA ITEM
ITEM: An Ordinance to authorize acquisition of 1515 and 1609 Centerville
Turnpike in fee simple for right-of-way and utilities for the Centerville
Turnpike Phase II Project, CIP 2-409, either by agreement or condemnation
MEETING DATE: May 17, 2016
Background: The Centerville Turnpike Phase II Project (the "Project") will widen the
existing roadway between Indian River Road and Kempsville Road to a four-lane
divided highway. The Project will provide intersection improvements, sidewalks,
dedicated bike lanes, landscaping, and relocation of existing aerial utilities.
Five of the parcels affected by the Project, which are single-family residences, will be
total acquisitions. The City has reached agreements with the owners of 3 of the 5
parcels that will be acquired in their entirety. The City has not been able to reach an
agreement with the respective owners of 1515 and 1609 Centerville Turnpike (the
"Property Owners").
• Considerations: The Property Owners rent their properties to tenants, and the
tenants who are being displaced by the Project will be relocated. This Ordinance will
allow the acquisition of 1515 and 1609 Centerville Turnpike to be expedited in order to
minimize lost rental income for the Property Owners and to address each tenant's
relocation as soon as a new location is identified.
The Ordinance, if approved will give authority only for the acquisition of the two
remaining total acquisitions. In the future, the City Council may be asked for authority
to acquire by agreement or condemnation the right-of-way and easements needed for
the Project from other parcels.
Acquisition will be administered by the City through the Public Works Office of Real
Estate, and if condemnation is necessary, through the City Attorney's Office.
• Public Information: A Citizens Information Meeting was held on January 22, 2015.
A public hearing for this Ordinance was advertised in The Virginian-Pilot, Beacon, and
this matter was advertised with City Council agenda.
• Funding: The acquisitions will be funded by CIP 2-409.
• Alternatives: Deny the request.
• Recommendations: Approve the Ordinance.

CITY OF VIRGINIA BEACH
AGENDA ITEM
ITEM: Ordinance (1) Approving Phase VI of the Town Center Project and (2)
Authorizing the City Manager to Execute an Agreement Supporting the
Authority's Obligations Under the Phase VI Documents
MEETING DATE: May 17, 2016
• Background: The Town Center Project (the "Project") has been a long-term
priority for the City. The City Council first recognized the importance of the Project in
the Central Business District of the City of Virginia Beach (the "City") when it adopted
the Comprehensive Plan on November 4, 1997. Since February 8, 2000, City Council
has approved five phases of development at Town Center. Phases I, II, Ill and V have
been completed on nine blocks and consist of approximately (i) 815,000 square feet of
office space, (ii) nineteen restaurants totaling 117,000 square feet, (iii) 190,000 square
feet of retail space, (iv) 804 residential units and (v) 412 hotel rooms. Phase IV expired
prior to commencement of construction.
Town Center Associates, L.L.C. (the "Developer") approached representatives of the
City and the City of Virginia Beach Development Authority (the "Authority") about
constructing another phase of development at Town Center on Block 9, which is
currently a surface parking lot between the Westin and the Cosmopolitan Apartments.
On December 1, 2015, the City Council approved a term sheet for Phase VI of the
Project (the "Term Sheet"). The Authority approved the same term sheet on December
15, 2015. Staff was directed to develop documents to implement the transaction
contemplated by the Term Sheet for consideration by City Council and the Authority.
On May 17, 2016, the Authority will consider approval of Phase VI of the Project. The
Authority's action will be expressly contingent on an affirmative vote by City Council.
• Considerations: As set forth in the Term Sheet, the Developer is now
proposing to begin Phase VI of Town Center, which will be a single-block, multi-facility,
mixed-use development on Block 9, consisting of the following elements:
Single Block, Multi-facility, Mixed-use Development (9 Levels)
First Level: Retail Space (33,000 sq. ft.)
Second Level:
• Zeiders American Dream Theater (300 seats / 17,000 sq. ft.)
• Restaurant (5,000 sq. ft.)
• Public Plaza (11,000 sq. ft.)
• Pedestrian Bridge across Central Park Avenue into the
parking garage on Block 10 (Cosmopolitan Apartments)
Third — Ninth Levels: 120 +/- Apartments
The Zeiders American Dream Theater (the "Zeiders Theater") would be privately funded
and operated by the Zeiders American Dream Theater Foundation (the "Foundation").
The Foundation will fund the cost of building the Zeiders Theater (estimated to be
$7,651,312) and the costs of future operation and maintenance. If the Zeiders Theater
ceases operations, the City would acquire title at no cost.
The Developer is expected to expend $30,725,489 to construct the private elements of
Phase VI, exclusive of the cost of the Zeiders Theater.
The Authority participation totals $3,933,374 and consists of the following:
• $1,440,959 for costs associated with incorporating the Zeiders Theater onto
the second floor of the structure.
• $ 473,470 for costs associated with vertical transportation (elevators and
staircases) from the ground level to the Zeiders Theater.
• $ 813,260 for construction of the Public Plaza
• $ 205,685 for soft costs (design, etc.)
• $1,000,000 for streetscapes and the Pedestrian Bridge.
The streetscapes and Pedestrian Bridge would be paid from the Authority's EDIP
account and the remaining $2,933,374 would be paid with bonds financed by the Town
Center TIF (the "TIF")
To ensure the TIF maintains acceptable fund balance, as a part of Phase V, the
Developer signed an "RA Note" in the amount of $3,850,000, payable in four
installments of $400,000 and five installments of $450,000 (the "Phase V RA Note").
"RA" stands for reimbursement amount and is a tool used in this Project if a projected
phase might not generate sufficient revenue to cover the public obligations for that
phase.
The Developer is entitled to earn a credit against annual installments due under the RA
Note if the real estate taxes paid into the TIF in the Core Area (the ten-blocks developed
as a part of the Project) are equal to those projected by the City's Finance Department.
To offset the added cost to the TIF from the Authority Participation in Phase VI, the
baseline at which the Developer could earn a credit under the Phase V RA Note will be
increased by the projected debt service attributable to the Authority Participation
($211,000 per year).
All the obligations of the City and Authority would be subject to annual appropriation.
• Public Information: Public Information for this item will be handled through the
normal Council agenda process. A public briefing on Phase VI was conducted at the
November 24, 2015 City Council meeting, and public comment was heard at the
December 1, 2015 City Council meeting. The terms of Phase VI are consistent with
those set forth in the Term Sheet.
II I. i I
' Alternatives: The Phase VI Documents reflect the City's on-going commitment to
the long-term priority of developing a Town Center for the City. There are certainly
other alternatives to development of the Central Business District. However, few if any
alternatives accomplish Council's stated goals for the area or provide the level of quality
proposed.
• Recommendations: Approve the Documents relating to Phase VI of the Town
Center (Central Business District), request approval and execution by the Virginia
Beach Development Authority, and authorize the City Manager to execute a Phase VI
Support Agreement.

AGENDA ITEM
ITEM: An Ordinance declaring the parcels located at 1536 and 1540 Indiana Avenue
(GPINs 2407-94-9909 and 2407-94-8956) to be in excess of the City's needs and
authorizing the City Manager to sell same to Cashvan Homes, LLC.
MEETING DATE: May 17, 2016
■ Background:
The City acquired 1536 and 1540 Indiana Avenue (the "Properties" or the
"Building Site") as part of the APZ-1/Clear Zone Use and Acquisition Plan. At the
time of acquisition, the Properties were developed with one single-family home
and one duplex structure. The improvements have been demolished.
The APZ-1 Disposition Committee has evaluated the Properties and determined
that it would be preferable to keep the Properties improved with residential use,
as they are in the interior of a stable residential neighborhood (Oceana Gardens
and West Oceana Gardens).
At the same time, density is being reduced by two (2) actual dwelling units, as
only one (1) single-family home will be permitted for development on the Building
Site.
A Request for Proposal (the "RFP") for five (5) building sites, including this one,
was advertised for two consecutive Sundays in The Virginian-Pilot as well as on
the City of Virginia Beach website. Cashvan Homes, LLC was selected to
develop the Building Site.
• Considerations:
Cashvan Homes, LLC is interested in purchasing the Properties for a total of
$85,000.
If the City retains the Properties, the City must pay to maintain the lots, an
estimated annual cost of$630 per lot ($1,260 total).
• Public Information:
Advertisement for public hearing as required by Section 15.2-1800 Code of
Virginia and advertisement of City Council Agenda.
■ Recommendations:
Approve the request and authorize the City Manager to execute all necessary
documents to convey the Properties subject to the terms and conditions in the
attached Summary of Terms.
11 1
• Revenue restriction: The City funded the acquisition of the Properties through
a partnership with the Commonwealth of Virginia. The proceeds from the sale of
the Properties in the amount of$85,000 will be received and fifty percent (50%)
of the amount will be deposited for appropriation in future Capital Improvement
Program capital budgets in #9-059, Oceana and Interfacility Traffic Area
Conformity and Acquisition II, and fifty percent (50%) will be deposited for future
payment by the City Manager to refund the Commonwealth's portion in
accordance with the grant agreement.

CITY OF VIRGINIA BEACH
AGENDA ITEM J
ITEM: An Ordinance to Accept and Appropriate $275,938 from the Virginia Department
of Environmental Quality to CIP # 7-414 Stormwater Quality Enhancements II
MEETING DATE: May 17, 2016
• Background: The City of Virginia Beach Public Works Department has been
selected by the Department of Environmental Quality to receive Stormwater Local
Assistance Funds (SLAF) for the water quality improvements associated with the Mill
Dam Creek Stream Restoration Project. The purpose of the SLAF is to provide grants
to local governments for the planning, design, and implementation of stormwater best
management practices that are associated with reducing water quality pollutant loads
for Chesapeake Bay Total Maximum Daily Load (TMDL) credit. Grant funding is
awarded to qualifying projects upon their completion. The Mill Dam Creek Stream
Restoration Project has qualified. The Mill Dam Creek Stream Restoration Project
consisted of a stream restoration of approximately 1,177 linear feet within the Mill Dam
Creek. The project was located along Mill Dam Creek, which is between Bayne Drive
and First Colonial Road and east of Lynnhaven Middle School. This stream restoration
project provided stream bank stabilization, created floodplain wetland benches,
improved water quality, and improved drainage capacity.
• Considerations: The work on Mill Dam Creek is part of CIP 7-414, Stormwater
Quality Enhancements II. There is sufficient local funding in CIP 7-414 to satisfy the
required match.
• Public Information: Public information will be provided through the normal City
Council agenda process.
• Attachments: Ordinance
Recommended Action: Approval

AGENDA ITEM
ITEM: An Ordinance to Transfer Funds within the Tourism Investment Program Special
Revenue Fund to Replace and Repair Holiday Light Displays
MEETING DATE: May 17, 2016
• Background: Through the Tourism Investment Program Special Revenue (TIP)
Fund, the City provides funding from tourist-related taxes to fund special events at the
oceanfront. Since FY 1995-96, the TIP Fund has provided funding for the annual
Holiday Lights Display special event held on the boardwalk in the winter tourist season
to attract visitors to the Oceanfront. In 1995, 144 light displays were purchased and due
to environmental conditions at the Oceanfront during the past two decades many of the
displays are in desperate need of repair or replacement. City staff has developed a plan
to replace and repair 17 displays at a cost of$220,000 to allow the program to continue.
The Beachevents Steering Committee, Resort Advisory Commission and the Virginia
Beach Hotel Association have been briefed and unanimously endorse the
repair/replacement plan for the Holiday Lights Program to continue.
• Considerations: City staff will follow the City procurement process to purchase
the replacement displays. The estimated cost of the displays is $220,000, but could
change depending on the response to the City's bid. Funds are available for transfer
within the Tourism Investment Program Special Revenue Fund.
• Public Information: Information will be handled through the normal City Council
agenda processes.
• Recommendations: Adopt the attached ordinance.
• Attachment: Ordinance
Recommended Action: Approval

• Background:
The applicant requests a change of zoning of a 24,330 square foot parcel at the
northeast corner of the Holland Road and Rosemont Road from B-1 Neighborhood
Business to B-2 Community Business District. The applicant indicates that over
the years, the limited uses allowed in the B-1 District has negatively impacted the
ability to lease units within the existing building.
■ Considerations:
All corners of this intersection, except for this one - the northeast property at the
intersection of Holland and Rosemont Roads-are zoned B-2 Community Business
District. This intersection has been documented as one of the busiest in the City.
Retail uses as well as many "low-impact" uses that are typically found within the
Suburban Area at busy intersections are not permitted on this site due to the
existing B-1 zoning. Further details pertaining to the request, as well as Staffs
evaluation are provided in the attached staff report. There is no known opposition
to this request.
• Recommendations:
The Planning Commission voted 10-1 to recommend approval of this request.
• Attachments:
Staff Report and Disclosure Statements
Minutes of Planning Commission Hearing

Recommended Action: Staff recommends approval. Planning Commission

Background and Summary of Proposal
• The applicant requests a Rezoning of a 24,330 square foot parcel at the northeast corner of the Holland Road
and Rosemont Road from B-1 Neighborhood Business to B-2 Community Business District. This rezoning is
requested because the B-1 district does not permit certain retail and service uses, particularly tattoo parlors.
This has impacted the property owner's ability to lease units within the existing building.
• In conjunction with the change of zoning request, a Conditional Use Permit for a Tattoo Parlor is also requested.
The applicant proposes to locate the tattoo and body piercing business within a 675 square-foot store front in
the western-most unit within the existing strip shopping center.
• The existing 35 on-site parking spaces exceed the minimum requirement of 25 spaces for the existing
establishments, as set forth in Section 203 of the Zoning Ordinance.
• The submitted concept plan for the tattoo studio includes a waiting room with seating, a separate tattoo area,
and adequate restroom and instrument sterilization areas. Specific standards for hygiene and certification are
set forth by the Virginia Department of Health. No exterior improvements, other than signage, are proposed.
• According to the application, up to four tattoo artists and one body piercer will work on-site. Typical hours of
operation are anticipated as 10:00 a.m. through 9:00 p.m., Monday through Saturday, and 12:00 p.m.to 8:00
p.m. on Sunday.

Comprehensive Plan Recommendations
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 respect to type, size,
intensity and relationship to the surrounding uses(pp. 3-1, 3-2).
Natural and Cultural Resources Impacts
The property is located within the Chesapeake Bay watershed.As the site is fully developed with a shopping center and
a parking lot,there are no known significant natural or cultural features present.
Traffic Impacts

Capital Improvement Program (CIP)
There are no active roadway CIP projects for this portion of Rosemont and Holland Roads.
Public Utility Impacts
Water & Sewer
This site is currently connected to both City water and sewer.
Evaluation and Recommendation
This change of zoning is requested due to the fact that the B-1 district does not permit certain retail and service uses and
this has impacted the property owner's ability to lease spaces within the building. With the recent amendment to the
Zoning Ordinance that eliminated the separation requirement of tattoo establishments from residential districts, a
tattoo artist inquired about leasing space at this location. This precipitated the rezoning request along with an
application for a Conditional Use Permit for a Tattoo Parlor.
According to Traffic Engineering Staff,the addition of a tattoo studio at this location will have no impact on this very
busy intersection. In Staff's view,the rezoning to B-2 Community Business District is appropriate at this location, as all
other corners of this intersection are currently zoned B-2. Additionally, it is likely that the vacant A-12 properties to the
north and east of this site will be incorporated into this site when it is ultimately redeveloped.

The Conditional Use Permit request for a Tattoo Parlor in an existing building is generally consistent with the
Comprehensive Plan's land use policies for the Suburban Area. No exterior improvements to the site are proposed,
other than the addition of a building sign. The proposed sign, as depicted on the submitted exhibit, is consistent in color
and size to the building.The conditions below are recommended to protect the site from visual clutter.
Based on the considerations above, Staff recommends approval of both requests—the Rezoning and the Conditional Use
Permit-subject to the conditions below.
Recommended Conditions for the CUP
1. Any onsite signage for the tattoo establishment shall meet the requirements of the City Zoning Ordinance, and
there shall be no neon or electronic display signs or accents, installed on any wall area of the exterior of the
building, in or on the windows, or on the doors.There shall be no window signage permitted.The building
signage shall not be a "box sign" and shall be located on the building as shown on the submitted photo
rendering entitled, "Folk City Tattoo Bldg Sign," dated March 3, 2016,which has been exhibited to the Virginia
Beach City Council and is on file in the Planning Department. The proposed sign package shall be submitted to
the Zoning Administrator for review and acceptance prior to the issuance of a sign permit.
2. A business license for the tattoo parlor shall not be issued to the applicant without the approval of the Health
Department for consistency with the provisions of Chapter 23 of the City Code.
3. The actual application of tattoos shall not be visible from the exterior of the establishment or from the waiting
and sales area within the establishment.
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 Environmental Design(CPTED)concepts and strategies as they pertain to this site.

Background and Summary of Proposal
• The applicant requests a Rezoning of a 24,330 square foot parcel at the northeast corner of the Holland Road
and Rosemont Road from B-1 Neighborhood Business to B-2 Community Business District. This rezoning is
requested because the B-1 district does not permit certain retail and service uses, particularly tattoo parlors.
This has impacted the property owner's ability to lease units within the existing building.
• In conjunction with the change of zoning request, a Conditional Use Permit for a Tattoo Parlor is also requested.
The applicant proposes to locate the tattoo and body piercing business within a 675 square-foot store front in
the western-most unit within the existing strip shopping center.
• The existing 35 on-site parking spaces exceed the minimum requirement of 25 spaces for the existing
establishments,as set forth in Section 203 of the Zoning Ordinance.
• The submitted concept plan for the tattoo studio includes a waiting room with seating, a separate tattoo area,
and adequate restroom and instrument sterilization areas. Specific standards for hygiene and certification are
set forth by the Virginia Department of Health. No exterior improvements, other than signage, are proposed.
• According to the application, up to four tattoo artists and one body piercer will work on-site. Typical hours of
operation are anticipated as 10:00 a.m.through 9:00 p.m., Monday through Saturday, and 12:00 p.m.to 8:00
p.m. on Sunday.

Comprehensive Plan Recommendations
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 respect to type, size,
intensity and relationship to the surrounding uses(pp. 3-1, 3-2).
Natural and Cultural Resources Impacts
The property is located within the Chesapeake Bay watershed.As the site is fully developed with a shopping center and
a parking lot, there are no known significant natural or cultural features present.
Traffic Impacts

Capital Improvement Program (CIP)
There are no active roadway CIP projects for this portion of Rosemont and Holland Roads.
Public Utility Impacts
Water&Sewer
This site is currently connected to both City water and sewer.
Evaluation and Recommendation
This change of zoning is requested due to the fact that the B-1 district does not permit certain retail and service uses and
this has impacted the property owner's ability to lease spaces within the building. With the recent amendment to the
Zoning Ordinance that eliminated the separation requirement of tattoo establishments from residential districts, a
tattoo artist inquired about leasing space at this location. This precipitated the rezoning request along with an
application for a Conditional Use Permit for a Tattoo Parlor.
According to Traffic Engineering Staff,the addition of a tattoo studio at this location will have no impact on this very
busy intersection. In Staffs view,the rezoning to B-2 Community Business District is appropriate at this location, as all
other corners of this intersection are currently zoned B-2. Additionally, it is likely that the vacant A-12 properties to the
north and east of this site will be incorporated into this site when it is ultimately redeveloped.

The Conditional Use Permit request for a Tattoo Parlor in an existing building is generally consistent with the
Comprehensive Plan's land use policies for the Suburban Area. No exterior improvements to the site are proposed,
other than the addition of a building sign. The proposed sign, as depicted on the submitted exhibit, is consistent in color
and size to the building.The conditions below are recommended to protect the site from visual clutter.
Based on the considerations above, Staff recommends approval of both requests—the Rezoning and the Conditional Use
Permit-subject to the conditions below.
Recommended Conditions for the CUP
1. Any onsite signage for the tattoo establishment shall meet the requirements of the City Zoning Ordinance, and
there shall be no neon or electronic display signs or accents, installed on any wall area of the exterior of the
building, in or on the windows, or on the doors.There shall be no window signage permitted.The building
signage shall not be a "box sign" and shall be located on the building as shown on the submitted photo
rendering entitled, "Folk City Tattoo Bldg Sign," dated March 3, 2016,which has been exhibited to the Virginia
Beach City Council and is on file in the Planning Department. The proposed sign package shall be submitted to
the Zoning Administrator for review and acceptance prior to the issuance of a sign permit.
2. A business license for the tattoo parlor shall not be issued to the applicant without the approval of the Health
Department for consistency with the provisions of Chapter 23 of the City Code.
3. The actual application of tattoos shall not be visible from the exterior of the establishment or from the waiting
and sales area within the establishment.
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 Environmental Design(CPTED)concepts and strategies as they pertain to this site.

AGENDA ITEM
ITEM: 5668 INDIAN RIVER RD, LLC [APPLICANT] 16, LLC [OWNER] Conditional
Use Permit (Car Wash Facility) 5668 Indian River Road (GPIN 1456901977)
COUNCIL DISTRICT—KEMPSVILLE
MEETING DATE: May 17, 2016
• Background:
The applicant requests a Conditional Use Permit to demolish a vacant restaurant
building located on an outparcel of the University Shoppes shopping center and
replace it with an automated carwash. As part of the request, the applicant is
proposing to retain the legally nonconforming sign on site.
• Considerations:
To ensure a quality site design, dormers will be added to the building, the system
for the rear vacuums will be installed underground to minimize clutter, and
additional landscaping will be planted in the right-of-way. The landscaping
requirements will be exceeded and architectural materials will reflect those used
at Regent University.
The proposal is not entirely consistent with the Centerville Strategic Growth Area.
Due to the level of quality design, and understanding that certain drive-through
uses are permitted by-right, Staff supports this request subject to conditions.
Further details pertaining to the request, as well as Staff's evaluation are provided
in the attached staff report. There is no known opposition to this request.
• Recommendations:
The Planning Commission placed this request on the consent agenda and
recommended approval with a vote of 11-0 following the conditions below:
1. With the exception of signage, the site shall be developed substantially as shown
on the plan entitled, "CONCEPT PLAN, 5668 Indian River Road," dated 3/14/16,
as prepared by Blakeway Corp.
2. The building shall be constructed substantially as shown on the plan entitled,
"GRAND SLAM CAR WASH," dated 2016-01-20, as prepared by Balzer and
Associates, with the addition of dormers constructed on the eastern building
elevation, at a minimum, in a manner similar to the applicant's existing operation
located at Edwin Drive and Independence Boulevard.
5668 Indian River Road
Page 2of2
3. The existing legally nonconforming free standing sign may remain for the
duration of the conditional car wash use. Should the site be redeveloped or used
for a use other than the conditional car wash, the legally nonconforming sign
shall be removed.
4. The applicant will work with Planning Department Staff during site plan review to
propose landscaping between the existing sidewalk and front lot line, in the
public right-of-way of Indian River Road. This landscaping shall be approved by
the DSC Landscape Architect and Landscape Management, and incorporate
evergreen plantings reaching at least 3 feet in height.
5. The vacuums shown to the north of the proposed building shall be installed
underground.
6. There shall be no pennants, streamers, balloons, portable signs, banners, or
similar attention-seeking devices displayed on the site.

Comprehensive Plan Recommendations
The subject site is located in the Centerville Strategic Growth Area (SGA).The Centerville SGA Master Plan identifies the
shopping center where this site is located as the University Shoppes. The Plan acknowledges that the University Shoppes
are isolated from the Centerville SGA due to widening of Indian River Road.The Plan identifies two redevelopment
scenarios for the shopping center—a transition from commercial to recreational fields with an enlarged YMCA, or a
consolidation of all parcels with an updated commercial development.
5668 Indian River Road, LLC
Agenda Item 3
Page 2
Evaluation and Recommendation
Staff has concerns that the proposed use is entirely auto-centric and does not move towards the goals as recommended
by the Centerville SGA Plan -an opportunity to consolidate commercial uses or create outdoor recreational uses. The
applicant is aware of these concerns; however,the subject site may be developed as a matter of right with uses such as
a drive-through restaurant or bank. Further,the site is adjacent to established suburban neighborhoods,fronts on an
eight-lane arterial, and is within 1,000 feet of Interstate 64. As such,the proposed car wash will provide a service to
residents of the adjacent suburban neighborhoods.
Staff has consistently recommended a ten-year time limit for interim uses proposed in a Strategic Growth Area that are
not consistent with the vision of the SGA Plans. Interim uses typically lease space in an existing,often older building,
and construct minor improvements, such as alterations to the building facade or signage. For interim uses, it is Staff's
goal to recommend improvements that may be achieved without requiring a full site plan review.
In this case,the applicant will own the property and is proposing to entirely redevelop the site. For this reason,the ten-
year time limit has not been recommended.To compensate for the use,the applicant has revised the site plan to
provide as much plant material on the front of the site,facing Indian River Road,as possible. Further, minor changes to
the proposed building have been recommended to ensure the lasting operation is aesthetically pleasing.
The applicant has specifically requested that an existing legally nonconforming sign remain on the property and be used
by the car wash operation.Staff has consistently recommended that nonconforming signs be removed via the
Conditional Use Permit process as a means of reducing visual clutter along roadways. This,coupled with the fact that no
time limit for the car wash is recommended and the nonconforming sign could remain on this site indefinitely,Staff
recommends that this sign be removed and replaced with a conforming, legal sign.
For the reasons above and as summarized in this report,Staff recommends approval of the request for a Conditional Use
Permit with the conditions below.

CITY OF VIRGINIA BEACH
AGENDA ITEM
ITEM: CITY OF VIRGINIA BEACH [Applicant / Owner] Change of Zoning from B-4
Mixed Use District to P-1 Preservation District. 2272 Old Pungo Ferry Road
(GPIN 2309236398). COUNCIL DISTRICT—PRINCESS ANNE
MEETING DATE: May 17, 2016
• Background:
In 2015, the City purchased the 20.24-acre parcel using funds from the Open
Space Acquisition Program and the Agriculture Reserve Program. The site had
previously been occupied by Captain George's Seafood restaurant. The City
intends to repurpose the site as a public park, providing water access to the North
Landing River. Improvements such as debris removal, removal of the existing pier,
repaving the parking area, renovating the existing boat ramp, and increasing the
beach area, will be done initially. As funding becomes available, additional
improvements will be considered.
• Considerations:
The proposed change of zoning of the site to P-1 Preservation will remove the
potential for significant development within the Floodplain Subject to Special
Restrictions and an environmentally sensitive area. The use of the site as a public
park will provide a valuable resource to the City and its residents. Further details
pertaining to the request, as well as Staffs evaluation of the request, are provided
in the attached staff report. There was no known opposition to this request.
• Recommendations:
The Planning Commission placed this item on the Consent Agenda, passing a
motion by a recorded vote of 11-0, to recommend approval of this request.

Background and Summary of Proposal
• In 1966, a Conditional Use Permit was approved on the subject site for 53 cabins, a marina and marina sales and
repair services.
• In 1976,a restaurant (previously Captain George's)was constructed on the site. In 1989,a second building was
constructed on the property and contained a convenience store, restroom facilities and a laundry room.
• In 2007, a Modification of the Conditional Use Permit and a Floodplain Variance were approved to allow for the
redevelopment of the site with a 92,307 square foot boat storage facility and a 3,000 square foot restaurant, pool
and recreation area. This plan never came to fruition.
• In 2015,the City of Virginia Beach purchased the property using funds from the Open Space Acquisition Program
and the Agriculture Department.
• The City of Virginia Beach proposes to rezone the property with the intent of converting the site to a public park,
providing water access to the North Landing River. The proposed improvements are listed below:
o The boat ramp will be renovated and surrounding piles will be cut to be level with the surface of the water;
o The concrete foundation from the previous restaurant building has been removed;
o A portion of the previous parking area has been repaved;
o The existing pier towards the rear of the site will be removed (the building that previously existed has been
removed already);
o The area at the rear of the site will be cleared of debris and reseeded where appropriate;
o The existing beach area will be expanded, improving water access for the public;
o A new guardrail has been installed along Old Pungo Ferry Road; and,
o A fence will be installed limiting public access to the marina area. (In the future, should the marina area be
renovated,access to this area will be provided.)
• Future improvements on the site will be completed as additional funding becomes available. The future
improvements may include, but are not limited to, restroom facilities, installation of a structure for food sales and
boat rentals, and the renovation of the marina area.

Comprehensive Plan Recommendations
The subject property is located on the North Landing River and the City's Comprehensive Plan designates the subject
property as being in the Rural Area. The Rural Area is located in the southern half of the City south of Indian River and
Sandbridge Roads. It is characterized as low,flat land with wide floodplains and altered drainage with a presence of
agricultural and rural related activities including traditional and specialty crop cultivation,tree farms, equestrian
facilities,wetland banks,fish farms and other similar uses. It is an important objective to protect and sustain all of our
valuable environmental,scenic and agricultural resources in the Rural Area against inappropriate activities and intense
growth pressures (pp. 5-1 to 5-4).
The Green Sea Blueway and Greenway Management Plan, adopted by reference as an amendment to the
Comprehensive Plan, presents a long-term management strategy that protects,conserves and manages a unique system
of natural resources,open space areas, and selectively chosen recreational uses, activities and facilities. The Plan's
strategy includes a facilities development and management component with the goal to expand and sustainably
maintain an integrated system of recreational facilities and support amenities that accommodate a variety of user needs
and interests through the use of environmentally friendly practices and materials.
Natural and Cultural Resources Impacts
The site is located within the Southern Rivers Watershed Management Area. The site is completely within the Special
Flood Hazard Area and is heavily impacted by storm events. The removal of the buildings that previously existed on the
site significantly decreases the amount of impervious cover and provides a less intensive use than what has been on the
site for the past 40 years. Additionally, proposed restoration of the natural habitat will have a positive impact on natural
resources.

Master Transportation Plan (MTP) and Capital Improvement Program (CIP)
Old Pungo Ferry Road in the vicinity of this application is considered a two-lane undivided local street.The existing
infrastructure currently resides in a variable width right-of-way. It is not included in the Master Transportation Plan.
There are no roadway CIP projects slated for this roadway.
Public Utility Impacts
City water or sewer service is not available in this part of Virginia Beach. Private wells and septic systems will be required
by the Health Department if restroom facilities or a snack bar are ever provided.
Evaluation and Recommendation
The proposed change of zoning of the subject parcel from B-4 Mixed Use to P-1 Preservation is recommended for
approval. Converting the site to a public park is, in Staff's opinion, a positive redevelopment of a site that will provide a
valuable resource to the City and its residents.This proposal is consistent with the Comprehensive Plan's goals for the
Rural Area and restores portions of the 21-acre parcel back to its natural state.
The proposed change of zoning and conversion of the site to a park removes the potential for significant development
within the Floodplain Subject to Special Restrictions. Preserved open space, such as parks, are a desired and encouraged
land use within the floodplain. Additionally,should Virginia Beach join the FEMA Community Rating system, a program
that provides residents a discount on their flood insurance premiums, projects such as this would provide the credit
necessary to achieve greater discounts.
The existing commercial zoning on the site is, in Staff's opinion, not appropriate given the site's location in the
Floodplain Subject to Special Restrictions and in an environmentally sensitive area. Commercial uses, as previously
existed, do not adequately protect a parcel that is a valuable natural resource for the City and its residents. Changing the
zoning on the site to P-1 Preservation, restoring portions of the site to their natural state, and creating a public park for
residents to enjoy and access the North Landing River while minimizing impacts to the floodplain.

CITY OF VIRGINIA BEACH
AGENDA ITEM
ITEM: An Ordinance to adopt the City of Virginia Beach Comprehensive Plan, It's
Our Future: A Choice City, 2016, including the Policy Document, Technical
Report, Reference Handbook, and all plans incorporated by reference which will
supersede the 2009 Comprehensive Plan.
MEETING DATE: May 17, 2016
• Background:
The Planning Commission is required under Virginia Code Section 15.2-2230 to
review the adopted Comprehensive Plan at least once every five years to determine
whether it is advisable to amend the plan. The Planning Commission commenced
its review of the City of Virginia Beach Comprehensive Plan, It's Our Future, adopted
December 8, 2009 (as amended), in June 2014 and has completed its work. The
Planning Commission recommends amendments to update the Comprehensive
Plan.
The plan was reviewed and a recommended update prepared using a broad public
engagement process. The Planning Commission and city planners hosted five
public open houses around the city and held a Virtual Town Hall session with a
citizen survey in October and November 2014. Staff from 19 City departments also
participated in two workshops to provide input. Through these forums, citizens and
City staff shared opinions about the City of Virginia Beach and the Comprehensive
Plan, including what may need improvement.
After consideration of all of the public staff input gained through the process
described above, the Planning Commission reviewed each chapter of the 2009
Comprehensive Plan during the period of February 2015 through June 2015. Along
with City staff, the Commission studied existing conditions, recent and projected
trends, and new state planning mandates. In addition to being responsive to public
input, the Commission established several desired outcomes for this plan update as
follows:
• To build on the strengths of the current Comprehensive Plan with an updated
plan that is appropriate for this present time and looking ahead to the year
2040;
• To address new state planning mandates approved by the General Assembly
since December 2009; and,
II
City of Virginia Beach Comprehensive Plan
Page 2 of 3
• To align the plan with the goals of Envision Virginia Beach 2040 (endorsed by
City Council in 2013), the region's 2040 Long Range Transportation Plan, and
the City's Community Plan for a Sustainable Future (adopted 2013).
An initial draft plan was prepared in November 2015 for Planning Commission and
City Council review. Subsequently, a public review draft was prepared. Citizens
were invited to review the draft Plan and provide feedback during the month of
January 2016 through a multi-media campaign involving a free mobile app, public
information displays at the public libraries, various Parks & Recreation Centers, and
Tidewater Community College. Three public meetings were also held around the city
during January 2016 and the draft plan was posted on the Comprehensive Plan
webpage at www.vbgov.com/2016CompPlan. The Virginia Department of
Transportation (VDOT) was also provided a copy of the draft Plan to determine the
plan's compliance with Virginia Code Section 15.2-2222.1. All public feedback
received on the draft Plan was presented to the Planning Commission in February
2016 and a Final Draft Plan (dated February 24, 2016) was prepared based on this
input.
• Considerations:
The Comprehensive Plan Final Draft is comprised of three parts: a Policy
Document, a Technical Report, and a Reference Handbook. The Policy Document
is organized to provide long range planning guidance for the City's five Planning
Areas: Urban Areas (Strategic Growth Areas), Suburban Area, Princess Anne
Commons & Transition Area, Rural Area, and Military Installations & Support. This
is followed by policy guidance for four city-wide elements: Master Transportation
Plan, Environmental Stewardship Framework, Housing & Neighborhoods Plan, and
Economic Vitality. This guidance is presented in both a Planned Land Use Map and
through a series of written policies. The end of each section of the Policy Document
contains a list of "Agenda for Future Action Recommendations" or steps that should
be taken following adoption of this Comprehensive Plan. The Technical Report
provides a snapshot of existing conditions, emerging trends, and projections. The
data found in the Technical Report is presented by topic with associated maps. It
also contains a Cost Estimate Summary for all roadways shown on the Master
Transportation plan's Primary Roadway Network Map in the Policy Document. The
Reference Handbook contains important reference documents associated with the
Master Transportation Plan, a listing of Design Guidelines based on where
development is being considered or by type of development, and a listing of all
documents that have been adopted by reference as part of this Comprehensive
Plan.
A copy of the Final Draft Plan, dated February 24, 2016, was provided to City
Council in early March, prior to the Planning Commission and City Council
conducting their public hearings for adoption. The Planning Commission held public
hearings on March 9, 2016 and April 13, 2016. The City Council held a public
hearing on March 15, 2016. VDOT provided the City with its review comments by
letter dated April 29, 2016, which are attached for reference.

• Recommendations:
Support and opposition was present at the Planning Commission public hearing on
April 13, 2016. The Planning Commission passed a motion by a recorded vote of 11-
0, to approve the City of Virginia Beach Comprehensive Plan, It's Our Future: A

Southern Watershed Subject to"Special Drainage Considerations"
In addition,the Southern Watershed portion of the Suburban Area is subiect to"special
drainage considerations." Drainage in the Southern Watershed is highly impacted by the
presence of high ground water, poorly draining soils,and high water surface elevations in
downstream receiving waters. Therefore, it is incumbent upon the developer of any property in
the Southern Watershed to understand and evaluate these factors prior to undertaking the
project and to properly account for these factors in the project design. Receiving waters in the
Southern Watershed are subject to tidal influences which can be exacerbated by winds. High
ground water elevations and poorly draining soils can result in increased runoff,can limit the
capacity of the stormwater conveyance systems,and can counter indicate the use of certain
Best Management Practices,such as infiltration.
All of these effects must be fully considered and evaluated in the analysis and design of drainage
systems in the Southern Watershed. Accordingly, it is strongly recommended that the
developer has a preliminary drainage study prepared by a qualified professional engineer in
advance of any request to approve a discretionary(versus by-right) development application
that involves that land disturbance in the Southern Watershed. The drainage study should fully
and accurately evaluate the effects of the foregoing factors on the planned development and on
upstream and downstream areas. The proposed drainage system for the planned development
would provide positive drainage that meets City standards and does not result in flooding within
the planned development or to upstream or downstream areas.

defined in the Suburban Area Chapter, neighborhoods are"...a cohesive arrangement of
properties,structures, streets, and uses within an area that most or all of which is residential,
and that shares distinct physical, social and economic characteristics." Thus, housing and
neighborhoods are discussed as one entity in this chapter as a cohesive arrangement,

• Princess Anne Road(from Providence Road to just south of Ferrell Parkway)from 4 to 6
lanes, Formatted:Font:Bold,Underline
• Military Highway(from Norfolk City limit to Chesapeake City limits from 6 to 8 lanes
Decreases in future ultimate lanes(from 2009 to 2015 Map for the year 2040)
• Diamond Springs Road(from Northampton Boulevard to Newtown Road)from 6 to 4 lanes
• Baker Road(from Wesleyan Drive to Newtown Road)from 4 to 2 lanes
• Salem Road(from Nimmo Parkway to Indian River Road)from 4 to 0 lanes
• Birdneck Road(from Norfolk Avenue to General Booth Boulevard)from 6 to 4 lanes
• First Colonial Road(from Old Donation Parkway to Great Neck Road)from 6 to 4 lanes
• West Neck Creek Parkway(from Nimmo Parkway to Indian River Road)from 4 to 2 lanes Formatted:Font:Bold,Underline
• Shore Drive(from Diamond Springs Road to Norfolk City limit)from 6 to 4 lanes
Other modifications
• Reflects the existing lanes for all primary roadways within the Oceanfront Transportation
Planning Area shown on the 2009 Map. The model results did not indicate the need for
increased lane calls for any of these roadways.
• Moved the alignment of West Neck Parkway(from North Landing Road to Indian River
Road)to the area just west of Courthouse Estates and line it up with the north-south
portion of Landstown Road(from North Landing Road to Landstown Road).
• Adjusted the right of way width on Nimmo Parkway/Sandbridge Road(from Atwoodtown
Road to Sandfiddler Road)to accommodate a two lane Parkway section. Adjusted the right
of way width of Nimmo Parkway to accommodate a four lane Parkway section(from
Atwoodtown Road to Upton Road). Reclassified Nimmo Parkway to a Minor Arterial from
Upton Road to General Booth Boulevard.
The results are summarized below and detailed modeling information is contained in the Reference
Handbook. This model calculated the need and lane call for a facility based upon the traffic
generation of existing and projected land uses throughout the city and region for the year 2040.
The model was calibrated by aligning recent year traffic assignments with the corresponding
existing traffic count data. A unique feature of this model is that the lane calls are based on the
implementation of a prioritized group of road improvements that have the greatest cost benefits
and value for reducing system-wide delay.It is important to note that the Travel Demand Model is
only one analysis tool to provide data and projections for creating the Roadways section of the
city's Master Transportation Plan,as well as prioritizing the transportation projects funded through
the city's Quality Physical Environment Capital Improvement Program(CIP).
Access Controlled Roadways
There are many ways to improve traffic flow on the City's busier roads. The most expensive way,in
many cases,is to add additional pavement or concrete and travel lanes to existing roads. This
method increases storm water runoff,and right-of-way and can have a negative impact on
surrounding communities and safety. Limiting access on selected corridors may be a more cost
effective method to maintain and improve the capacity of these roads. Limiting the turning
movements to and from these roads can increase roadway capacity and improve traffic flows on the
corridors.

that makes the business case to bring high speed rail to the region.
Regional/City High Capacity Transit Network
The Norfolk Tide Light Rail line opened in 20118 and is considered to be a High Capacity Transit
technology. This line connects the medical center in Downtown Norfolk with the Virginia Beach
City line. HRT conducted an Origin and Destination Survey during 2013 and 2014 to determine
points of origin and destination for passengers using The Tide7. Results of this study indicate that a
surprising 33%of all the Norfolk Tide light rail users reside in Virginia Beach. The busiest stations
for Virginia Beach riders are at the eastern end of the line,including Newtown Road(57%of riders)
and Military Highway(21%of riders)stations. Virginia Beach ridership is fairly dispersed
throughout the remainder of the system and this study reflects that there are multiple destinations
within the City of Norfolk. The vast majority of trips were from home to work. Other secondary
trip purposes include colleges/universities,personal business,shopping,social visits,and medical
appointments.

The Tide Light Rail station
In 2015,the Virginia Beach City Council adopted a Locally Preferred Alternative(LPA)resolution
for an extension of The Tide from the Newtown Road station in Norfolk to the Virginia Beach Town
Center,with new station locations at Witchduck Road,Kellam Road,and Constitution Avenue and
above grade crossings at Witchduck Road and Independence Boulevard in order to bypass those
roadways that experience high motor vehicle traffic volumes(see below map).
With this action,Virginia Beach set in motion a multi-faceted approach to the provision of enhanced
transit services to Virginia Beach for the future as follows:
• A 3-mile extension of The Tide connecting Downtown Norfolk to Virginia Beach Town
Center described above,thereby making the system truly regional,as intended,for the first
time.
• Design of an end-of-line station that can be expanded to become a major passenger hub in
which additional north/south and east transit corridors can logically interconnect. The City
has studied the ridership potential of these extensions using the Federal Transit Association
(FTA)STOPS model described later in this chapter.
• Design efforts are underway for the development of a shared use pathway running parallel
to the light rail corridor to enhance connectivity between stations,along with the trail
connectivity benefits as a multi-modal corridor.

• Walking/biking audits are underway for the SGAs and will form the basis of necessary
infrastructure improvements to provide first mile/last mile connectivity to the transit
stations and bus stops along the initial Tide segment,and eventually to all of the SGAs and
future transit station locations.
• An approximate doubling of the feeder bus network for The Tide extension will effectively
double bus service within the City by establishing two new routes and increasing the
timespan and frequency of several routes to match The Tide system operating schedule.
• Strategic land use planning and economic development to maximize transit-oriented
development(TOD)along the transit rail corridor and future high capacity transit corridors
connecting the SGA5. This growth strategy will focus the most intense development in these
appropriate areas and help preserve the character of the City's Suburban and Rural Areas.
To further evaluate the feasibility of High Capacity Transit along various transportation corridors of
the City,the Federal Transit Authority(FTA)STOPS(Simplified Trips-on-Project Software)
program was utilized to model potential future transit ridership.STOPS is a stand-alone software
package that applies a set of travel models to predict detailed transit travel patterns for the various
transit extensions;quantify the trips-on-project measure for all travelers and for transit
dependents;and,compute the change in automobile VMT based on the change in overall transit
ridership between the two scenarios.
The Virginia Beach high capacity transit extension map shown below indicates the approximate
location for future extensions to the Newtown to Town Center alignment that is currently under
detailed study. The modeling results indicate that the proposed alignments warrant inclusion in
the Comprehensive Plan with recommendations for additional detailed study. Details associated
with the modeling exercise are included in the Technical Report. Below is a brief description of the
various alignment alternatives.
• The Blue line represents the Newtown Road to Town Center extension that is currently
under detailed study.
• The Orange line represents the eastward extension of the Tide to the Oceanfront.
• The Green line serves the central spine of the City connecting Town Center to the north with
Princess Anne Commons and the Municipal Center to the south.
• The Red lines serves the central spine of the City from Town Center in the south to Joint
Expeditionary Base Little Creek to the north. This alignment then turns west and south to
potentiallyservice Norfolk International Airport.
• The Purple line serves the vast suburban residential areas of Kempsville from an
approximate midway point in the Green line to a potential connection with the City of
Chesapeake.

Regional&Local Bus Transit
The"Connect Hampton Roads"initiative found that reliable,frequent,and accessible local bus
serves as the backbone of every successful transit system. The report describes the condition of the
region's current bus system as inadequate,with routes that do not effectively connect across city
boundaries;and operating with inconsistent times,days,and frequencies. Below are the types of
HRT bus routes that currently serve the City of Virginia Beach:
• Fixed Regular Routes-Regular routes at scheduled times and days of operation and service
hours vary by route. There are currently 11 fixed routes within Virginia Beach.
• MAX Express Routes-The MAX,or Metro Area Express,is a regional express service
connecting commuters to cities across Hampton Roads.It offers an economical,stress-free,
fast ride to major employment centers from established park and ride lots.There are
currently 5 fixed routes that pick up Virginia Beach residents at the Oceanfront,Silverleaf
Park and Ride lot or the Indian River Park and Ride lot and take riders to major
employment centers,such as the naval bases,shipyards,and Downtown Norfolk with
limited stops. The Max routes cost twice the fare of traditional buses but provide limited
stops and extra comfort such as free Wi-Fi. Passengers can also partake in the guaranteed
ride home program.

Agenda for Future Action Recommendations: Passenger Rail and Transit/Public
Transportation
• City Council has adopted a Locally Preferred Alternative to extend The Tide from the
Newtown Road station in Norfolk to terminate at a new station in Town Center near
Constitution Avenue. Plan for the future extension of this high capacity transit system as
follows:
o East to the Oceanfront
o North to Joint Expeditionary Base Little Creek and south and west to Norfolk
International Airport area
o South to Princess Anne Commons and the Municipal Center
o West to Chesapeake
• Evaluate appropriate technology for these high capacity corridors include light rail,maglev,
bus rapid transit and others that depend on a rail or similar fixed guideway that separates
the transit from normal vehicular use.
• Light Rail System Planning-Construct the eastern terminus of light rail station;proposed at
Constitution Avenue,so that it can easily be expanded to serve as a major passenger hub,
with enhanced amenities and platforms to serve future east,north,and south high capacity
transit corridors.
• Establish an east-west multi-modal corridor-Develop a shared use path generally within
the old Norfolk Southern railroad alignment from the Newtown Road light rail station to
Town Center. Study extension of this path along this railroad alignment to the east of Town
Center.This proximity will allow for greater connectivity to light rail stations and greater
multi-modal choice(see also see Active Transportation recommendations).
• Light Rail Station Connectivity-Enhance pedestrian/bicycle connections to all high capacity
transit stations and bus route stops to provide safe access and enhanced modal choice.
• Proactive Bus Service planning recommendations:
o Coordinate annual evaluation of new bus routing,frequency of service,and duration of
service. In the near future(within 5 years),implement the proposed feeder bus
network needed to serve the light rail extension from Norfolk to Virginia Beach Town
Center.
o Enhance local bus service to become a viable option for people who could choose to
drive,otherwise referred to as"choice riders." The provision of frequent,reliable,
comfortable service can reduce single occupancy automobile travel and,thus,address
traffic congestion and reduce the need for additional construction of highway lane
miles.
ACTIVE TRANSPORTATION
"Active Transportation"is the combination of walking,bicycling,and other use of other non-
motorized wheeled vehicles that may benefit from the same infrastructure.Benefits can include:
• healthy activity and improved fitness
• increased social interaction and engagement
• reduced use of fossil fuels and the concomitant reduced pollution
• reduced costs of living

• Perceived threats from traffic.Most of the larger roads have speed limits of 45 miles per
hour,with large volumes of traffic moving at least that fast.Few cyclists are comfortable
in such conditions for on road cycling,and those that do often report hostile behavior
from motorists.
• Neighborhood islands.Many neighborhoods are like islands surrounded by obstacles
such as waterways and high-speed,high-volume roadways.Casual cyclists cannot get
far without the challenge of navigating a major roadway or other hindrance.
• Interstate barriers.1-264 is a barrier running east-west across Virginia Beach,and 1-64
does the same across the western portion of the City and leading into Norfolk and
Chesapeake.Commuting across these barriers is very difficult,funneling cyclists and
pedestrians into limited crossing spots,some of which can be difficult and dangerous.
For cyclist commuters who work in Downtown Norfolk and in Chesapeake's Greenbrier
area,it can be hard to reach these destinations.
Virginia Beach is not an island and our active transportation system needs to coordinate with our
neighbors in Chesapeake,Norfolk,and North Carolina,as well as beyond.Several initiatives are
underway,and the staffs of the cities are collaborating on a variety of new connections:
• South Hampton Roads Trailer(SHRT)will run 41 miles from the Oceanfront via the rail
corridor,connecting the downtowns of Virginia Beach,Norfolk,and Portsmouth,and
through Chesapeake to Downtown Suffolk.)

Technical Report
Chapter 10-Historic Resources, replace"History" section as follows:
CHAPTER 10. HISTORIC RESOURCES
History
Prehistoric Settlement-Native peoples have utilized the natural resources found near the mouth
of the Chesapeake Bay and along local inland waterways for perhaps 15,000 years. The nomadic
life of following the migration patterns of various animal species eventually gave way to seasonal
habitation as the climate changed and the coastline and environment followed. Eventually,the
native people lived as tribes in relatively permanent villages. This is what the English encountered
when they arrived as settlers in the early 17th century.
Artifacts dating to the Paleoindian period (9500-8000 B.C.),Archaic period (8000- 1200 B.C) and
Woodland period(1200 B.C.- 1600 A.D.)have been discovered in various locations in Virginia
Beach. Algonquian speaking tribes occupied the Tidewater area of Virginia and the Eastern Shore
during the late Woodland period (900- 1600 A.D.).Maps created by Englishman John White in the
1580s located the native villages of Apasus and Chesepiooc within the geographical areas of
Virginia Beach.
In the late 16th century,the Cheasapeakes occupied the land from the Atlantic Ocean to the
Elizabeth River. They tended to remain aloof from the Powhatan chieftain that controlled most of
the other Algonquian speaking tribes in southeastern Virginia.The Chesapeakes were eradicated by
Powhatan just prior to English colonization. In the aftermath,the Nansemonds,who were settled to
the west,spread to the east to occupy area in Norfolk and Virginia Beach.
English Colonization-Virginia Beach is the site of the landing of the Jamestown colonists on April
26, 1607 at Cape Henry.After a few days exploring the area they moved inland up the James River
to settle. Permanent English settlement occurred in Virginia Beach in the 1630s when Adam
Thoroughgood was provided a land grant of 5,350 acres along the western branch of the Lynnhaven
River.
Eight shires (counties)were established in 1634 by the English government as the first
administrative subdivisions in Virginia. Virginia Beach was originally part of Elizabeth City Shire.
In 1636 New Norfolk County was created from Elizabeth City County and included the land area
south of the James River and Chesapeake Bay.This new county was further divided in 1637 into
Upper and Lower Norfolk counties. Lower Norfolk County was divided in 1691 into Norfolk County
and Princess Anne County.1 The Princess Anne County boundaries coincided with the Lynnhaven
Parish boundaries that had been established by the Church of England in 1643.2 Most of the
Princess Anne County land area would eventually become the City of Virginia Beach in the
twentieth century.
Agricultural pursuits provided the economic basis for Virginia Beach throughout the colonial,early
national and antebellum periods.Subsistence level farms and small to medium size plantation

operations were the typical forms seen in the landscape. The legendary Virginia tobacco staple did
not grow particularly well in this area and a more diverse agricultural approach occurred very early
in Virginia Beach. Wheat,oats and corn proved to be better cash crops in the eighteenth century in
Virginia Beach.
Other industries developed around the abundance of natural resources.The most notable of these
were the production of pitch,tar and turpentine for their maritime uses. A small port for ships
called Kempes'Landing developed on the Elizabeth River and the town of Kempsville was officially
established there in 1783.3A few other small settlements appeared elsewhere in the county but
none grew much beyond a handful of houses and shops/services.
Post-Colonial-A skirmish in 1775 between British troops under British Royal Governor Lord
Dunmore and a local militia occurred in Kempes Landing killing a militiaman,Francis Ackiss. A
significant loyalist presence in the area and occasional British troop activities nearby made for an
unsettled period during the Revolutionary War. British ships and troops were again active in the
area during the War of 1812 and local militia companies provided what protection the residents
had.
Plans to construct a lighthouse at Cape Henry during the colonial period were developed but never
executed. The tricky navigation in the area required a constant physical assistance and the Cape
Henry Lighthouse was finally built in 1792 as the first public works project of the new United States
of America government.
Historic Seatack Community and Vicinity-A settlement of free people of African descent was
established in the eastern area of northern Princess Anne County in the late eighteenth or early
nineteenth century.Historic Seatack is located in the Beach District near the City's Oceanfront
Resort Area.It is considered by area residents to be the oldest African-American community in
Virginia and the United States,with original settlement by free men dating back to the late 1700s
and early 1800s,and possibly as far back as the 1500s.The area eventually took its name from the
words"Sea Attack,"based on British Warship cannons along the coast firing inland during the War
of 1812.Seatack men fishing in the Atlantic Ocean were known to pull people to safety after
shipwrecks.U.S. Life Saving Station Seatack,Virginia No. 2,was ultimately established in the area,
which was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1979.In 1908,the citizens of Seatack
formed the"first school for Negro children"at the"mother church"of Seatack,Mt.Olive Baptist
Church on Birdneck Road.In the 1920s,the parents of Seatack formed the Seatack Public School
League of Princess Anne County,and Seatack citizens later provided land for the original Seatack
Elementary School,which opened in 1952.Men of Seatack served in every war in which the United
States was involved,and those returning from WWII organized and built the first black-owned and
operated fire department,known as the Seatack Volunteer Fire Department. In 1985,Mr.Joseph
Grimstead,Sr.dedicated the land for the Seatack Community and Recreation Center,which opened
in 1997,and was later rededicated in honor of Mr.Grimstead. In October 2011,the Seatack Civic
League,which is over 100 years old,organized a 200th"birthday"celebration for Seatack.
The area historically identified with"Seatack"was once much larger,described by the Seatack
Community Civic League as extending north of Virginia Beach Boulevard,east to Cypress Avenue
and Owl's Creek,and including not only the Seatack core neighborhood along Birdneck Road and

Virginia Beach Boulevard,but also the area to the west referred to today as the"Atlantic Park"and
"East Oceana Gardens"neighborhoods. New development per market trends and redevelopment
with AICUZ-compatible uses for nearby NAS Oceana has occurred in Seatack over time,in some
cases altering the character of this historic community. The area shown as "Historic Seatack
Community"was recommended in 2016 by the_Seatack Community Civic League (see Figure 1). As
such,the area does not imply or intend special restrictions or land use limitations other than those
currently regulating land uses in this area.

Historic Seatack Community and Vicinity
FIGURE 1
Civil War-Princess Anne County(Virginia Beach)remained a mostly rural and agricultural
locality well into the twentieth century. Much of the early success of the agricultural economy had
been achieved through the use of enslaved laborers of African descent since the seventeenth
13
century.The growing division between northern and southern states erupted in the American Civil
War in 1861.
The strategic location near the mouth of the Chesapeake Bay made this an important area for the
opposing sides to control and the United States forces were able to do so early on in the conflict.
This was accomplished without a major battle and very little military engagement occurred in
Virginia Beach during the war. Despite federal occupation,the enslaved population remained in
bondage and the Emancipation Proclamation,issued January 1, 1863,specifically noted that
Princess Anne County was exempt from the executive order. The eventual surrender of the
Confederate States of America and the ratification of the 13th Amendment to the U.S. Constitution in
1865 finally provided the enslaved people in the area with their freedom.
Post-Civil War-The most influential black leader in post-Civil War Princess Anne County was
Willis Augustus Hodges. He had left the county for New York as a young man and returned during
the war. He became the county's first black elected representative,serving in the 1867-68 state
constitutional convention. The new constitution,which went into effect in 1870,changed the
administration of the county from the justices of the peace to a board of supervisors. Hodges was
elected to be the supervisor to represent the Kempsville District.4
Other black citizens were voted into political office including Littleton Owens who was elected in
1879 to represent Princess Anne County in the House of Delegates. Some of the recently freed black
citizens acquired land and small new communities,such as New Light and Burton Station,began to
develop in the 1870s (see Figure 2).5

Virginia Beach - In the 1880s,Colonel Marshall Parks erected a wooden clubhouse at the
oceanfront,which was the first structure built on what is today called the "resort strip." Parks,who
is credited with naming Virginia Beach,and a group of investors formed the Norfolk and Virginia
Beach Railroad and Improvement Company to acquire oceanfront property to build a hotel and
pavilion and to construct a railroad. The first railroad service from Norfolk to Virginia Beach was
15
initiated in July 1883.The resort grew into a small town and was incorporated as the town of
Virginia Beach in 1906.6
The small community of Oceana Gardens was platted west of the oceanfront in the early 1900s and
it soon became a viable residential and commercial area that served much of the surrounding rural
area.The first paved roadway between Norfolk and Virginia Beach was completed in 1920 and the
automobile would eventually push the passenger railroad out of the city's landscape. Oceana sat
strategically between the roadway(today's Virginia Beach Boulevard)and the rail line.
The Seaside Park amusement complex opened at the beach in 1912 and the Princess Anne Country
Club was incorporated in 1916.A new concrete boardwalk was built along the Atlantic Ocean beach
in 1926.Further investment by businessmen from Norfolk and Portsmouth resulted in the
construction of the Cavalier Hotel at the oceanfront in 1927. Along with the growth of several hunt
clubs,the Cavalier and its associated leisure activities attracted a wealthy clientele to Virginia
Beach,even after the stock market crash of 1929.
Cape Henry-Development occurred in the late nineteenth century at Cape Henry,as well. A
United States Weather Bureau Observation Center was established there in 1873 and a United
States Life Saving Station in 1874. A new lighthouse was built there in 1881 and it became
operational in place of the nearly century old beacon.A group of investors created the Cape Henry
Syndicate and they began buying land there in the 1890s and the resort they established became
increasingly popular during the first decades of the twentieth century.By the 1920s,the civilian
development of Cape Henry consisted of a small community of frame cottages,several hotels,a
railroad station,O'Keefe's Casino and St.Theresa's Chapel.?
The strategic nature and location of Cape Henry prompted the federal government to appropriate
funds in 1913 to purchase land there and to build a military installation named for General John P.
Story. Fort Story was operational during World War I and has served as an important training
facility and coastal defense ever since.8
World War II-Plans to establish a military airfield near the Oceana community began as early as
1938. Construction of a 2,500 foot runway began in 1941. The attack on Pearl Harbor accelerated
the process and resulted in expanded plans and facilities for the Oceana Air Station.It was
commissioned on August 17, 1943 and remained active through the war.In 1950,an expansion
extended four runways to 8,000 feet making it a master jet base.9
The military facility at Dam Neck was first organized as an anti-aircraft school during World War II
and was called the Fleet Air Defense Training Center.The Amphibious Training Base at Little Creek
came under construction in 1942 and was operational by August 1943.10 The Tidewater Victory
Memorial Hospital,a state tuberculosis sanitarium,and 22 acres around it were converted into

Camp Ashby in 1943. This U.S.Army camp provided coastal defense shore patrols until June 1944.
From September 1944 until April 1946,Camp Ashby served as a German Prisoner of War camp. 11
County/City Merger-Post war Virginia Beach in the 1950s saw a movement of population from
nearby Norfolk to Princess Anne County.Suburban neighborhoods,such as Aragona and Princess
Anne Plaza,sprouted along route 58. As this was occurring,Norfolk began annexing sections of
western Princess Anne County.On January 1, 1959,Norfolk annexed 13.5 square miles from the
county and the 38,000 residents that lived within that area.
The local political machine,under the leadership of Sidney Kellam,saw such annexation as a threat
and reasoned that more county land would soon be absorbed by Norfolk. In response,the
consolidation of Princess Anne County and the City of Virginia Beach as a municipality began to
take shape. Norfolk controlled the water supply to the county and Virginia Beach and tried to
leverage that power to thwart the merger. The ploy backfired pushing the consolidation forward
resulting in the establishment of the modern City of Virginia Beach on January 1, 1963.12
With the establishment of the independent City of Virginia Beach came the establishment of the City
Council/City Manager form of government. From 1963 to 1988,the mayor was selected by City
Council from among their membership. In July 1988,Meyera E.Oberndorf became the first mayor
of Virginia Beach to be directly elected by the public. She also became the first female to serve as
mayor of the city.13
Steady and rapid population growth characterized the first quarter century of the post-merger
period.Virginia Beach grew into the most populated city in Virginia as large farming tracts in the
northern half were developed primarily on a suburban model.
Virginia Beach's status as a vacation destination also grew during this period and the resort area
was modernized and improved. A new boardwalk and seawall were constructed to both
accommodate the growing tourist trade and to protect the oceanfront from storms. Development
and modernization took its toll on historic resources with many early twentieth century buildings
near the oceanfront and older farmhouses and related structures inland being lost during this
period.
In 2000,plans for a downtown in the Pembroke area finally came to fruition. The first building in
the new downtown,the Armada Hoffler Tower,opened in 2003. The Westin Virginia Beach Town
Center&Residences was completed in 2007 and,at 38 stories,became the tallest building in
Virginia.

Jeff Hodgson: Yes sir.
Donald Horsley: I am sitting awful quiet today, and I know you all think that is unusual but I didn't on
this Comprehensive Plan as much as the rest of you here because I was gone all last year. I didn't have
much to say today. I just want to let the Seatack community know that the Comprehensive Plan is
processed over the years has changed drastically. I've been around for a long time. Mr. Minns, I
remember you when you were a young whipper snapper coming in here talking to groups. I remember
that from many years ago. But the in depth analysis that is given to the Comprehensive Plan in these last
two wasn't done many years ago because we didn't have the need for that in depth analysis. The City
has grown and specialized in its development process over these years and it hasn't. But rest assure that
your community will be well looked after because I can remember serving with the Honorable Barnett
Thoroughgood from your community, and he took care of your people very well and he was a very
honorable man and I can remember serving with him with great pride. He was a good man over the
years that he was here. And we miss him,we really, really do. But I just want you to be assured that if
nothing has been left out of any community, if there is a specific need and I'm hoping that this analysis
will take place after this because the motion that was made, we will find out if it has the need to have a
specific focus area for Seatack. I am sure it will proceed there but I want you to be assured that you are
not getting overlooked or penalized in any way. It's just the way the City has developed over the years
and these last two Comprehensive Plans have been so heavily scrutinized with the Strategic Growth
Areas, the SFAs. We didn't have anything like that many years ago. So rest assured that we will take
care of you. I'll be here for at least three more years anyway. Thank you, sir.
Jeff Hodgson: Is there anything else? If not, I would like to thank everybody for coming down today. I
would like to thank Director Barry and his department for taking the heavy lifting on all of these. Thank
you very much.
Ross Brockwell: This Comprehensive Plan has been really enjoyable for me to work on. I know everyone
take it very seriously. It has been a real pleasure for me for the life time love for this City. It has been
very enjoyable, and I thank you all very much.
Jeff Hodgson:Thank you. Meeting is adjourned.

Summary of Comprehensive Plan Update
The Planning Commission is required under Virginia Code Section 15.2-2230 to review the adopted Comprehensive Plan
at least once every five years to determine whether it is advisable to amend the plan.To that end,the Department of
Planning and Community Development and the Planning Commission began a review of the 2009 Comprehensive Plan,
adopted December 8,2009,and as last amended in January 2014.
The Planning Commission and city planners hosted five public open houses around the city and held a Virtual Town Hall
session with a citizen survey in October and November 2014. Staff from 19 City departments also participated in two
workshops for the purpose of gaining input.Through these forums,citizens and City staff shared opinions about the City
of Virginia Beach and the Comprehensive Plan, including what may need improvement.
After consideration of all of the public and staff input gained through the process described above,the Planning
Commission reviewed each chapter of the 2009 Comprehensive Plan during the period of February 2015 to June 2015.
Along with City staff,the Commission studied existing conditions, recent and projected trends,and new state planning
mandates. In addition to being responsive to public input,the Commission established several desired outcomes for this
Plan update as follows:
• To build on the strengths of the current Plan with an updated Plan that is appropriate for this present time in
2015 and looking ahead to the year 2040;
• Address new state planning mandates approved by the General Assembly since December 2009; and,
• Align the Plan with the goals of Envision Virginia Beach 2040(adopted by City Council in 2013),the region's 2040
Long Range Transportation Plan, and our Community Plan for a Sustainable Future (adopted by City Council in
2013).
An initial draft Comprehensive Plan was prepared in November 2015 for Planning Commission and City Council review.
Subsequently, a public review draft was prepared. Citizens were invited to review the draft Plan and provide feedback
during the month of January 2016.The Virginia Department of Transportation (VDOT)was also provided a copy of the
draft Plan to determine the Plan's compliance with Virginia Code Section 15.2-2222.1.This section of the Virginia Code is
the result of legislation passed by the General Assembly in 2006(Chapter 527 of the 2006 Acts of Assembly).The
legislation and the resultant review process established by VDOT, is commonly referred to as'Chapter 527 Review'.
Chapter 527 Review provides VDOT with the authority to analyze and provide comments to local governments on
comprehensive plans and rezoning proposals that may have a significant impact on state-controlled highways.The
results from the analysis can then be used by local governments in their planning and land use decision making process.
VDOT's findings are advisory in nature.
To promote awareness about the draft Plan and encourage citizens to get involved in a variety of ways,the City's
Communications Office created the"Leave Your Mark" public awareness campaign and developed a free mobile app,
"SpeakUp!VB." Brochures about each section of the draft Plan were created and citizens were asked to rate draft policy
statements.The draft plan was posted on the Comprehensive Plan project webpage at www.vbgov.com/2016CompPlan
and copies of the public review draft were displayed at all of the public libraries. City staff set up weekend displays and
talked with residents at three Parks and Recreation Centers during the Center's January 2016 Membership Drive and
also met with students at Tidewater Community College.A display was set up in the first floor hallway of Building 2 of
the Municipal Center,outside of the Department of Planning and Community Development.Three public meetings were
also held around the city during January 2016.All public feedback received on the draft Plan was presented to the
Planning Commission in February 2016.A final draft was prepared based on this input.

that will be your vote on the Comprehensive Plan, and then when you do D3,that is simply a vote to
send it off to City Council. Thank you.
Jeryl Phillips: Good afternoon Mr. Chairman and members of the Commission, I'm Jeryl Phillips,
Comprehensive Planning Manager. Just to recap where we are with this item,and for the benefit of the
public, our Comprehensive Plan update that is proposed. Just to back track on our process and talk
about our proposed revisions and the Addendum. The Planning Commission is required under Virginia
Code Section 15.2.-2223 to review the adopted Comprehensive Plan at least once every five years to
determine whether it is advisable to amend the Plan, and to that end the Department of Planning and
Community Development and Planning Commission began a review of the 2009 Comprehensive Plan
adopted December 8,2009, as it was last amended, in January 2014. The Planning Commission and City
Planners hosted open houses around the city in held a virtual town hall session with the citizens serving
in October and November of 2014. And the staff and 19 city departments also participated in two
workshops for the purpose of obtaining input. Through these forums, citizens and city staff prepared
opinions about the City of Virginia Beach and the Comprehensive Plan including what may need
improvement. After consideration of all the public and staff input came through the process described,
the Planning Commission reviewed each chapter of the 2009 Comprehensive Plan during the period of
February 2015 to June 2015. Along with city staff, the Commission studied the existing conditions
recent and projective trends and new state planning mandates. In addition to being responsive to public
input, the Commission established several desired outcomes for this plan updates as follows. To build
on the strengths of the current Plan, with an updated Plan which is appropriate for this present time in
2016 and looking ahead to the year 2040,to address new State planning mandates approved by the
General Assembly in December 2009, and to align the plan with the goals and of Envision Virginia Beach
2040,the regions 2040 long range transportation plan,and our community plan for a sustainable future.
AN initial draft Comprehensive Plan was prepared in November 2015 for Planning Commission and
Council review,and subsequently a public review draft was prepared. Citizens were invited to review
the draft plan and provide feedback during the month of January 2016. The Virginia Department of
Transportation was also provided a copy of the draft Plan to determine the plan's compliance with
Virginia Code Section 15.2-2222.1. All public feedback received on the draft plan was presented to the
Planning Commission in February 2016 and a final draft plan dated February 24th was prepared based on
that input. You held a public hearing on March 9th, and received public input on the final draft plan. You
deferred action at the time, and gathered in a workshop to consider that input, and to consider a list of
proposed revisions. A list of proposed revisions is in your packet, and based on this morning's discussion
with some additional input, there is an addendum. It is a little hard to read on the screen and I'll go over
it. The first item on the addendum is a proposed revision to the Policy Document based on a public
meeting that was held with the Aragona Civic League and considered by you this morning regarding the
Pembroke Strategic Growth Area Plan.So this is the proposed amendment adding an agenda for future
action recommendation to the Pembroke SGA section of the Plan Chapter 1, Section 1.2, Page 37,
"prepare a Master Transportation Plan for the Pembroke SGA using a public process that involves the
adjacent neighborhoods". Next, in addition to the Rural Area, Chapter 2, Section 1.5 on page 9, in the
section on the Rural Preservation Plan insert the following sentence after the last bullet listing planning
objectives for the rural area. The City's commitment to directing a new growth in to the Strategic
Growth Areas and special economic growth areas is complementary to these rural preservation plan
objectives. This was a very important statement for you as you worked on this chapter. We receive a
Item #D4
City of Virginia Beach
Page 3
request to make a minor change to a sentence in the Master Transportation Plan acknowledging that
the City is contracted with ODU the Virginia Modeling Analysis and Simulation Center to prepare the
modeling that was the basis for the update of the Master Transportation Plan. And then lastly, a map
was omitted from Exhibit A, in your list of proposed revision,and that was the map with a labeling
change for Suburban Focus Area 8, the Military Highway Corridor Strategic Focus Area. You can look to
the next page so you can see that map. It was just a labeling change. We mislabeled a portion of the
City of Norfolk as the City of Chesapeake. We are making that correction. So,with that list of proposed
changes and that addendum,the staff recommends approval of the Plan and it is available for any
questions.
Jeff Hodgson: Does anyone have any questions for Jeryl?
Jeryl Phillips: And before I leave, I would just like to acknowledge all of your time and effort working
with us. We really appreciate this in the past two years and the huge staff effort that was involved, led
by the Comprehensive Planning Division and a lot of input from many other departments. We
appreciate the support of the Director.
Jeff Hodgson: I believe this has been going on for a year and a half on this.
Jeryl Phillips: Almost two years.
Jeff Hodgson: Almost two years. The list is too long to even begin to mention you all who have been
involved in this. I mean,the countless hours. I mean by your team and the Commission up here. I think
in some ways the City staff was over us. We went through this line by lien and word by word, and we
started with a great plan before and our goal was,and the reason why we took it so seriously was to try
and make it that much better for the final;so,thanks for being patient with all of us for all the little nick
picks that we went through and did in this Plan. So,thank you.
Jeryl Phillips: Thank you.
Jan Rucinski: I just have one thing. For those who weren't familiar, if you could just provide some
clarification. So, once this goes to Council, and whatever point it becomes accepted, it is going to be one
whole document. They are not going to see piece meal on what was changed at those different times.
Everything is going to flow smoothly and it is going to be all together in one document.
Jeryl Phillips: Correct. All adopted revisions would be moved in to a new clean document of three parts,
a Policy Document, a Technical Report, and a Reference Handbook.
Jan Rucinski: Okay. Thank you.
Jeff Hodgson: thanks Jeryl.
Jan Rucinski: We have a speaker in support and that is Lorraine Samko, representing the Aragona Village
Civic League.
Jeff Hodgson: Good afternoon.

Lorraine Samko: Good afternoon. Thank you. I've never spoken before a group before so forgive me if I
am nervous.
Jan Rucinski: Please state your name for the record.
Lorraine Samko: I have a prepared statement.
Jeff Hodgson: Could you please state your name first for the record.
Lorraine Samko: I am Lorraine Samko and I am President of Aragona Village Civic League in the Bayside
District of Virginia Beach. Okay. I do have a prepared statement. Good afternoon, ladies and
gentlemen of the Planning Commission. I am Lorraine Samko, President of the Aragona Village Civic
League. I am here today in representation of a consensus of the residents of the Aragona Village.
Aragona Village Civic League and the residents of Aragona Village, respectfully ask today that the
Planning Commission approve the City Comprehensive Plan, with its incorporated Strategic Growth
Districts to include an addendum, an amendment, or revision that would adopt the removal of actual
physical written and visual consideration to open a paper street section of Lavender Lane and Aragona
Village located between Broad Street and Virginia Beach Boulevard and that future plans and maps
reflect this matter,which was item A on the handout that I brought a copy of for each member.
Aragona Village, begun in 1957 by Johnny Aragona, has existed much earlier than the surrounding
development built to our north, east,south and west. Our neighborhood sustains direct impact of
encroachment from all sides to include the increase of heavy and dangerous traffic on numerous streets
in our neighborhood that were only designed and initially for neighborhood usage. This includes
Lavender Lane,Aragona Boulevard, Sullivan Boulevard, and Kellam Road among others. It is fair to note
that Aragona Village has never been directly invited to participate in the planning stages of either the
Pembroke Strategic Growth Area referenced further as PSGA Plan or the City Comprehensive Plan. And
while we respect the protocol of public notice, if we are suggested in print from our city government,to
be directly impacted by a flyover to run straight through the southwestern part of our neighborhood of
2,988 homes per the City tax records, which is item B,then we should be invited to participate on a
personal level at the beginning of such planning. It is stated on page 12 of the PSGA plan that Columbus
Station and Pocahontas Village were to be invited to participate in early planning and then have no such
affront suggested for these neighborhoods. A presentation brought to an Aragona Village Civic League
meeting in September 2014, long after much of the planning had been done,did not include the power
point slide presentation in item B.
The Lavender Lane flyover only came to our attention in the month of March by an astute neighbor who
now watches web and print for information related to our neighborhood. We requested copies of all
current plans and an Aragona Village Civic League task force reviewed them in full. In reviewing this to
the PSGA plans it is more discretely indicated to open through traffic on a paper section of Lavender
Lane between Broad Street and Virginia Beach Boulevard and create a flyover, which is item C. We
requested a meeting with PSGA Planning to address this, along with other questions concerning the
effects of the plans. We met on April 7 with Mark Shea and Ashby Moss. We directed to them at
present:
1. Lavender is a lane, not a Boulevard or road. Traffic on Lavender is excessive and extremely
dangerous at present. Speeding at or in excess of 35 mph is normal and has been
substantiated by Virginia Beach Traffic Engineering. We have received minimal support
Item #D4
City of Virginia Beach
Page 5
from Traffic Engineering to curb the abuse. Even additional stop signs have been asked for
and we have been denied.
2. There are 70 homeowners on Lavender that directly sustain the current traffic misconduct
on a daily basis. Adjacent streets of Rose Marie, with 55 homes,Jacqueline, with 85 homes
and Carnation,with 41 homes, also bear a substantial impact. These homes have already
lost resale value due to the current traffic conditions. Homeowners selling their homes have
concerns about them being shown at peak commute times.
3. There are a minimum 3 elementary bus stops on Lavender Lane, one within 75 feet of
Witchduck Road traffic. There are also several middle and high school bus stops. A near
tragedy happened in fall of 2015 with a car careening at high speed and narrowly missing a
parent with children at a bus stop on Lavender.
4. Our Police Department has indicate through reports from Traffic calming work on Sullivan
Boulevard that nearly 70 percent of citations issued are not residents of Aragona Village.
We feel this holds true to most of the traffic abuse on our streets.
Can you imagine yourself living on Lavender Lane now? And if this lane is opened to further traffic
perversion, can you even imagine living within a mile of Lavender Lane?
It was stated by both planners that the flyover presentation in Item B was a concept by an outside
consultant and that current or future funding is non-existent and implementation was doubtful. A
consensus by all parties was reached that there is no viable reason to continue indication or pursuit, per
the plans,to open a paper street section of Lavender Lane between Broad Street and Virginia Beach
Boulevard. We asked for directive to proceed to remove this item from the plans and their
recommendation was to ask you,the Planning Commission,for this relief. Mark Shea and Brian Solis
have indicated they would attend this meeting and would address the Planning Commission to support
our request if asked.
Aragona Village Civic League, on behalf of the residents of Aragona village, respectfully requests the
Planning Commission approve the City Comprehensive Plan today with an addendum, amendment or
revision that would adopt the removal of any consideration to open the paper street section of Lavender
Lane in Aragona Village located between Broad Street and Virginia Beach Boulevard and that future
plans and maps reflect this matter.
Thank you for your time and allowing us to speak.
Jeff Hodgson: Thank you Ms. Samko. Real quick! Were you in this morning's meeting? I am not sure
you were.
Lorraine Samko: No sir, I was not.
Jeff Hodgson: This came up and we discussed this at our meeting today, and out of that was this
addendum, which I don't know if you saw that has future action recommendations for the Master
Transportation Plan for the Pembroke SGA, using a public process that involves adjacent neighborhoods,
and that is to address your concerns that were brought to us this morning, and we hope that would
suffice on what you're looking for.

Lorraine Samko: Do you have a copy that I could see? I did hear the previous speaker mention
something but could not hear her from the back.
Jeff Hodgson: If you look at the one that says page 37.
Lorraine Samko: Okay. Alright.
Jeff Hodgson: I believe Mark mentioned that this isn't even proposed in the next 20 years, and since it is
not like something that can happen next year, we've got a 20 year window,this gives us time to do a
study and make the necessary changes to the SGA. Is that kind of a correct statement?
Mark Shea. Yes that is correct.
Ed Weeden: State your name for the record.
Mark Shea: I'm Mark Shea,Transportation Planner for the City of Virginia Beach. Just to kind of be
consistent with Lorraine was saying earlier that we do agree that with the lack of the need being shown
for that paper street being connected, and also based on the fact that it is a conceptual plan and that we
didn't have any funding identified for the flyover in the next 20 years, however, looking at the big
picture the flyover isn't necessary to support the SGA, so we didn't want to go any further on that but
our paper street,we were. The second point was the cost estimate on how to do that with a future plan
amendment or could it be done at this meeting. Does that answer your question?
Jeff Hodgson: Does that answer your question?
Lorraine Samko: We would have to test that previously.
Jeff Hodgson: Okay.A re there any other question up here?
Ronald Ripley:The idea of the public plan was really to look at the whole area, so if the transportation is
not working the way it should work and how it should work in the future,this part that you brought up
ought to be considered seriously, so that was the idea of the plan.
Mark Shea: We are seeing Lavender Lane as a whole.
Lorraine Samko: Lavender Lane is a whole and should be addressed and I think it is important that we
begin now to address the fact that if we don't do something it is going to be worse and certainly, I think
we've agreed that a flyover would not help the situation, but I think there are things that we can do
within the Plans to assist our neighborhood and better traffic management for our neighbors.
Jeff Hodgson: I think we agree with you and this gives us an opportunity to do that at a greater detail
instead of just having one more piece.
Lorraine Samko: Okay.
Jeff Hodgson: Is there anybody else.
Lorraine Samko: Thank you for your time.

Jan Rucinski: Our next speaker is in opposition and it is the Seatack Community Civic League. There is
no name on here. It just says Seatack Community Civic League.
E. George Minns: That is not my card. My card has my name on it
Jeff Hodgson: Did anyone just write Seatack Civic League speaker?
E. George Minns: That is not my handwriting.
Jeff Hodgson: Please continue.
E. George Minns: Seatack would ask....
Jeff Hodgson: Please state your name.
E. George Minns: E. George Minns, President of the Seatack Community Civic League. We would have
to ask that again that this not be approved on the basis of fundamental values. Other communities may
have minor situations. As I indicated to this body on March 9th, Seatack was left out for 40 years, as it
relates to the Comprehensive Plan,48 years overlooked historically, although we were the first
community there. Now, keep in mind that Seatack has never caused any problems to the City. Seatack
has provided a lot of the backbone that helped the foundation of the City to grow. So, why is it that
Seatack has to beg for basic American fundamental values? If you look at what was before you on
March 9th, now you look at what's before you today, we are in worse condition today, as it relates to the
Comprehensive Plan than we were on March 9th'when this body took a constitutional position and sent
it back to get it corrected. On March 9th,your record will show they got our name correct, Historic
Seatack Community,they placed us in the proper position Suburban Focus Area,along with other
suburban focus areas. In that aspect, name Suburban Focus Area,we were equal for a moment. We
didn't have anybody else to come to other than you to exercise our free speech and objection. We did
not create the problem we are forced to live under. We did not exclude ourselves for 40 years. We
excluded by the City. We didn't create the problem. We came to the City to correct the unjust, the
unconstitutional lift that was opposed upon our community for over 40 years, while everything around
us progressed. When due process, I believe would be required. And due process is a process that is due
under a given set of circumstances depending on the precise governmental action to a degree to which
the American citizens have to suffer. We already suffered 40 years before we even knew what a
Comprehensive Plan was. We didn't get a full understanding of it until January, so we come before you
in March and I outline to you this problem that is forced upon us, not any other community in the
Oceanfront. We are the only African-American community in the Oceanfront. We had no control of
being born African-American. Why is that being used to treat us differently? If you look at the March
9th and you look at what's proposed today. You look at North Beach, it stays the same. You look at
Shore Drive Corridor, it stays the same. These are focus areas. Now you look at Seatack. Delete the
name. Delete the picture. Delete the text. The only thing we were saying was correct our history. We
are over 200 year old community.As African-Americans, haven't we suffered enough? Is it too much to
ask that our history be correct for all our contributions we given before any law American ever had?
Who created the problem? Mr. Frankenfield said he was going to write up something with a passion.
Well that sounded fair. The only thing he didn't tell he was going to write it up,and put it in the book
before letting me know. So, that's where the argument started over history because what was in there
was wrong, because Mr. Frankenfield didn't grow up in Seatack. He does not know Seatack history.
Each city community should have the American right to tell you who they are. What their needs are.

We should not be punished for exercising free speech, but if you look where we were on March 9th, and
look where we are today, in your records,we were punished. Now what would the Supreme Court say
about punishing innocent American citizens guilty of no crime? We haven't committed a crime. All we
wanted was our history corrected. To impose punishment upon a person solely because he can do it,
because he has the power to do it,just was William 0. Douglas,who was one of the longest is sitting on
the Supreme Court,said it's offensive to the cardinal principles for which the Constitution stands. We
would never have liberty and justice for all if citizens can't come to you and explain their community
conditions and surely not to be there after punished because you sent back for corrections. We should
have not been punished but when you take this below from where we were, and you said now delete
them.That's punishment for what? You just had us where we should have been all the time in the
Suburban Focus Area but you took it all away. That's wrong. It's constitutionally wrong. At the very
moment, we deserve procedural process since all of it does involve property. Here is the record of the
notice we received. We just got notice this was being done to us April 7th. Would you please pass this
around? This is Mr. Frankenfield's email to us that we discovered what was being done to us. Now,
somewhere I read that citizens were supposed to be given two week notice on changes of that major.
And these are material changes. These are not minor changes. And we shouldn't get mad and punish us
because, he doesn't know our history,you can't know it. You didn't live it. That's the reason we ask
because once the Comprehensive Plan goes forward,that's five years. We should not be committed to
suffer five more years. We already suffered 40. I believe somewhere along the line that even Seatack is
entitled to equal justice under the law. I think the Federal constitution says that"No state shall make or
enforce any laws that are abuse the rights and privileges or deny its inhabitants. We are inhabitants,
equal protection under the law. How can you look at how Shore Drive is? Adequately treated. Look at
North Beach. Adequately treated. But look at what happened to Seatack? Denied for 40 years, and
then when we finally discovered what was going on,we didn't know anything about a Comprehensive
Plan. Last month we were almost there. We were almost to the equality, but now we are worse off just
because we exercised free speech. I don't think you can punish American citizens for going to the
statutory governmental body exercising free speech. And look at the different between where we were
when you sent it back and look where we are now and tell me what is the crime that we committed that
would warrant that degree of punishment upon a community,the entire community? Even if you hate
George Minns,you cannot justify punishing a whole community because you don't like the Civic League
President, denying free speech even if there are things we don't agree because we are limited. And
Seatack doesn't need the Planning department to be a Taliban on us. We supposed to be America. And
no citizen should feel afraid to come before the Planning Commission or City Council, and the city record
should not show that those innocent American citizens have been punished by city staff for free speech.
Are there any questions?
Jeff Hodgson: Are there any questions for Mr. Minns? I just have one question. You said you weren't
aware of the Comprehensive Plan until this January that it even existed?
E. George Minns: In the context of how it works and so forth. I heard the phrase Comprehensive Plan.
But we didn't know that communities could participate in it and all of that. When the City uses a lot of
phrases, they don't ring a bell. Just like we caught them labeling our community Oceana East, but you
use that phrase, people at Seatack don't know what you're talking about.
Jeff Hodgson: I don't think the City intentionally hid the Comprehensive Plan from Seatack and showed
it to the rest of Virginia Beach and just didn't show Seatack that we had a Comprehensive Plan.
E. George Minns: Let me say and I will put it like this. If you are subjected to a second rate education
Item #D4
City of Virginia Beach
Page 9
system for years, and you expect it to function like people who never suffered that, we are constantly
being subjected to things. Now you can hear about Comprehensive Plan,you can hear a lot of phrases
but you don't really know the inner workings of it that ok if it opens up like the Red Sea once, and then it
closes up for five years. We are sitting in Seatack we were wondering why were things are being done in
other communities but not in ours. After we got in to in depth, I saw a map with a name that I have
never seen, so I went to digging and that's what led to a full understanding of the Comprehensive Plan.
And that's when inside that old community it began to understand why we got left out of so much, so
that became really important for us get into a better corrected now, because it is basically now or never.
We got overlays all on top of us that shouldn't even be in our residential area. In fact, when proposed
by the City they were not going to do it. One of them was the aquarium. It was supposed to go around
the back of Seatack . We went to the day time meeting,the nighttime meeting and all that, and they
showed us maps and said okay, we are not coming through your residential area, and then we got to
January 20th at the Convention Center, the map they got up there is the one they had at the beginning.
So, they fooled us by switching the maps. It was like a bait and switch thing going on. That is what I
mean when I say what we experience in Seatack versus what you see in other areas. And then City
records showed you were an inbalance in the black community and not in others because they go down
there and meet with them privately and explain things to them and they didn't do that to us. It is not
the same. So we will ask that you not approve this. No other community in the City has suffered 40
years. We have now suffered in front of you. We were here on March 9th. You see where that is, it is
on your record. And you see where we are today, which is less. That's punishment. That's wrong.
Jeff Hodgson: Just one more thing I want to clarify is this. You mentioned that if this is approved, it is
five years. That's it. I would just like to tell you that five years that I've been on here, I can't tell you
how many Comprehensive Plan revisions we've done in the last five years that I've been on here.So, it is
not that if it is approved today, nothing can happen to it for five years. It can be amended next month,
two months from now,six months from now. So, it is not a five year.
E. George Minns: You know how indian say if you walk a mile in my moccasins then you understand my
pain. If your community has been denied 40 years,you finally find out and the doors open and gasping
and go cope to find the equal that the sun is shining. March 9th, we were close. But from March 9th, to
here, that is basically a 30 day period, look how far we've been pushed almost back to where we were
before we even discovered it. And, now you're saying, it could be. It could be. It could have been done
any time in the 40 years but it wasn't.
Jeff Hodgson: So, my understanding was that previously everything you asked for is in here.
E. George Minns: No sir.
Jeff Hodgson: With the exception you're saying the Special Focus Area,that map.
E. George Minns: No sir. The history that is written in the revision...
Jeff Hodgson: Which I am looking at right here.
E. George Minns: Does even match the Circuit Court Records. I just didn't go down bullet, bullet, bullet,
all the things that are off base. It is contradictory within the first paragraph of itself. It says formed in
the late 1800s. Don't you know we got our name in the war of 1812? So, how can you say we've
became existing in the late 1800s?

Jeff Hodgson: It says possible as far back as the 1500s.
E. George Minns: But I'm saying it's bouncing around.
Jeff Hodgson: Well, okay.
E. George Minns: The history leaves out a lot. It is twisting in ways it shouldn't be. So,the history is
not correct. Then we are moved out of the Suburban Focus Area where we should be.
Jan Rucinsk: I have a question.
E. George Minns: Yes ma'am.
Jan Rucinski: Why do you think you need to be in the Suburban Focus Area? What focus do you think
that the Planning Department or the city of Virginia Beach needs to do at Seatack?
E. George Minns: Number one, it should be respected as a historical community. Since the Supreme
Court of Virginia says you don't have to have a historical building. They already tore down all the
historical buildings. But there could still be a historical overlay district protecting its culture. How does
the City justify trashing all of the black history in Seatack that is American history. We have civil war
graves and stuff there and other artifacts. How do you justify overlooking it?
Jan Rucinski: It is not overlooked.
E. George Minns: It has been totally overlooked. There is no reference.
Jan Rucinski: It has been moved to the historical section of the Comprehensive Plan, so my question to
you is why do you think there needs to be a Special Focus Area? What focus do you think the city needs
to have in regards to Planning for Seatack?
E. George Minns: The same, equal should mean equal. The same way the City preserved community
that came into existence in 1915 Old Beach. That is the same type of City delivering of preservation
services that should have been delivered to the Seatack Community that has existed over 200 years. If
no more than the fact that we helped build the town of Virginia Beach, and the City of Virginia Beach,
for all we've contributed. In your own documents, it says something about those who contributed to
the growth work and development of the City. But how do you disregard Seatack?
Jan Rucinski: I still don't understand why you think it should be a Special Focus Area?
E. George Minns: Because we made contributions to this City,and our community is being eaten up
from 1963 to now. It is like pacman eating our community up, so our boundary is going to be outlined
and that area needs an overlay historical culture area, and tweaked as past history. We don't have a
chance to show the historical value, because no one won't listen. A lot say the same thing like you. But
I don't' understand. Sometimes it is hard to understand other people's culture, and we will never
understand diversified cultures if we don't'give them a chance. But they understood Old Beach.
Jan Rucinski: Because there were changes that needed to be made there. What changes need to be
made to Seatack?

E. George Minns: Stop trashing it. Stop putting storage sheds in there. Give it a chance to be the
historical place that it is, recognize the few historical things that are still there so we can have in this city
a black history tour about American history. It is as much American history in Virginia Beach, as a matter
of fact, it is the Colonial Williamsburg of Virginia beach. But it has been overlooked. The City saw the
significance in Kempsville, but it's overlooked at Seatack.
Jan Rucinski: Because changes need to done there, and that is why I believe by putting in the Technical
Report and referring to the History of Seatack and giving Seatack the credit for the history that is there is
a more appropriate place for Seatack to be outlined in the Comprehensive Plan.
E. George Minns: I respectfully disagree that Seatack is more than just history. We are still there, but
our community is being wiped out. What you're are talking about leads to our land being taken and
anything else done with it, without us having a voice. And that is what happens with the section I live in.
We ask you as a body today,to consider these wrongs that has been done. You can refuse. We've then
left with nothing but the Federal judge because at somewhere it needs to stop. Anybody outside of
Seatack shoves down Seatack is struggles, to microwave what I think your land should be used for.
Jeff Hodgson: Speaking for me and nobody else up here. I think this is a very important area. I think
this area is surrounded by the some of the City's biggest assets.The aquarium,the Oceanfront,the
potential arena that may be coming in,the amusement park that is there.You've got a lot of the
amenities surrounding the Seatack area. I personally think this is a very important area. The one thing I
think we're doing positive here is instead of at the 11th hour trying to rush and create an SFA in this area,
when it needs to be studied a little more, which is what was asked, and you're saying that once itgs
approved by Council, it is five years. That is not true. It could be next month we can decide and say let's
look at this as a Special Focus Area, and spend the time on it instead of holding this entire plan up that
we worked for two years on because this came to us at the 11th hour. It wasn't because we're trying to
punish you, and I'm speaking for myself. I don't think anybody here is trying to punish you. I think this
came to us at the 11th hour. We worked incredibly hard on this document, and to trying to shove
something in at the last minute and not give it the attention that we gave every other piece of this
document is not fair to you, Seatack or the City of Virginia Beach as a whole.
E. George Minns: Let me ask you this what would it take away from you as Commissioner of the City,to
put Seatack if only simplistically on equal footing of significance in a Suburban Focus Area?
Jeff Hodgson: I don't think anyone is disagreeing with you on that. I think we want to look at this,
instead at the 11th hour trying to stick something in here that may not be right or it might not do you the
justice that is deserved.
E. George Minns: The injustice is to do things in to us without us included. Whatever was done in back
rooms,we were not included.
Bob Thornton: What exactly are you talking about? What was done to you that you didn't know about?
We had public hearings for zoning. Public hearings for use permits, public hearings for everything known
to man in the City, which is the way it is supposed to be. So what exactly are you talking about? What
specific?
E. George Minns: The original write-up that went in the printed book was not shown to us until after it
was in that book. We were not told anything before it went in. We were told it would be written up,
II
Item #D4

could review it. That sounded very fair. When we went to look, it was already in the book. Then we
were told that it cannot be changed. It has to go past Planning and City Council before any revisions
could be done.
Bob Thornton: Are you talking about the amendments that the plan we are working on now? Are you
talking about the past?
E. George Minns: What came before you on March 9th when we were in a Suburban Focus Area.
Nobody said we shouldn't be in a Suburban Focus area, and that's exactly what the Planning Staff
brought to the community in the meeting and we got the video.
Jeff Hodgson: That goes back to what I was just been saying. It came to us at the 11th hour. And those
things, we want to do them right, and all of a sudden were saying here's the map, here is where the SFA
needs go. We haven't had a chance to go through that and might even make it better for you, maybe its
bigger, maybe smaller. I don't know. We haven't had a chance to go through it we're saying we don't'
want to hold up two years of work so we could get that. This could be approved by Council next
week,maybe not. And then the next month. We can say hey, let's look at this SFA and see how we can
do this the right way instead of just doing it at the last minute and not doing it right.
E. George Minns: The only reason why I was at the meeting last month, it was because we were not
informed as other communities were informed.
Dee Oliver: Mr. Minns, respectfully, every time we do something, it is published. It is published in the
newspaper. It is published all over the City for the public to hear it and to know that. That being said,
this document is a living short, I think now it is breathing, because we worked on it so much. The
document changes constantly. The lady from Aragona came in. All of a sudden she says wait a minute
you got this ramp coming in 20 years down the road. Maybe this ramp will come in, maybe it won't
come in. But right now,she's got an issue with the paper street. We just,two hours ago made an
amendment to add in here to protect this paper street that she doesn't want made into a road. When
you came up here the first thing you said when you stood up was I don't want any storage unit. Right?
E. George Minns: That was another application.
Dee Oliver: Right,that is on this issue because what we're talking about is your district. That is in your
district. I don't want the storage unit in your district.
E. George Minns: Well,thank you.
Dee Oliver: But you have to give us an opportunity to look at the district,detailed completely. You
don't want us to just willy nilly throw a blanket, and a net overlook this area, and just say let's just do it.
It is not fair to that area. It is not what you want and it is not what we want. I don't want to see these
storage units all through your neighborhood. I think it is terrible.
E. George Minns: They are already there.
Dee Oliver: I realize that. I'm well aware of that. What we have in the book now is your map. We have
your map.
E. George Minns: You have part of what we tried to get them to do.

Dee Oliver: Sir,we have a map. We have the history of Seatack. We've done a ton of work on this.
What we need to do to make it a focus group for you is to work on that so we can get what you want
but we can't do that like that, because we just started working on this 45 days ago. The description is
there. It is open-ended and it is ready to roll. It needs to go and be voted on; so, we can do it the
correct way.
Jeff Hodgson: I can you that my two years on this Commission, and I will do everything that I can to
work in the area. It is my backyard. I live right there too. My best friend lives in Seatack. So, I will do
everything that I can, and I'm sorry that I have to say something here. Barry agreed„ and I don't want to
put words in your mouth that this warrants to be looked at as a SFA, and we are willing to do that but
we as a group said we're rushing it. We don't want to do this half-cocked. Let us look at it in more
detail and try to come with something a little better than what we would just shove in right now We are
not trying to punish you. I can promise you that.
Dee Oliver: I don't mean to cut you off but Seatack is not just your community. It is all of our
community. We are built around Seatack. We drive through it, we live through,and we use it. It is part
of our community. Don't you think we want to be proud of your community when we go through there?
Don't you think it is as important to us as it is too you to make it as beautiful as it can possibly be? To
rush us through this is not in the best interest of that section of our City that we all proud of our City,
and we need to take it slow. You're talking new construction, roads,whatever you want, storage
buildings and not storage buildings. Change in zonings, not change in zonings. We can't do all that in 45
days. You don't want us too. We want to be as proud of that community as you want it to be.
E. George Minns: May I respond?
Dee Oliver: Yes sir.
E. George Minns: I don't see how anyone else and I can be on the same page if I am not included. For
what you're saying now, it sounds like you're saying that the Commission removed it from the Suburban
Focus.
Jeff Hodgson: That is correct.
Jan Rucinski:That is correct. We requested a change of placement. We did not want it removed from
the Comprehensive Plan. We agreed to a change of placement in the Comprehensive Plan.
Jeff Hodgson: For the history and the map. The SFA, we did not want to stick that in there right now.
That was not a choice by Barry. Barry came to us and said it, and again I don't'want to put words in your
mouth. This area deserves to have a special focus area, and it warrants it. And, I think we all agree on
that. We just weren't willing to try and do it that quickly.
E. George Minns: That makes it even more painful. That is saying there was something about the
Commission. A decision was made from where we were. We were looking at it March 9th. And then it
was moved to where it is now, not by Mr. Frankenfield but by the Commission, and we were not even
told that it was being discussed, so that our input could have been considered whatever the decision is
made to move it from where it was shown on the record March 9th to where it is today. In fact, we were
actually thinking Mr. Frankenfield did it. But from what you're saying the Commission did it.

Bob Thornton: Mr. Minns,the SFA never existed. There was never a Special Focus Area 10.
E. George Minns: We were 9.
Bob Thornton: Nine.
Bob Thornton: When you came to us in March and brought this matter up,one of Barry's solutions was
to say to us, we can create another Special Focus Area built around the map you gave us. After we
debated with Barry,we as a body said, it is not proper. We can't debt it. As Dee said, you're not the
only people that live in this neighborhood.There are businesses.There are industrial properties. The
United States Navy has the large piece of property in here that they control by air rights and AICUZ. We
just didn't feel like we could stick this in the ordinance or stick this in the plan without having the whole
community involved in it. So, we suggested to him to pull it out. We're not comfortable creating a
Special Focus Area, so we put your concerns in the Technical section of the book,and that is where we
have it today, and that is where we propose to approve it. If you and your neighborhood, and the rest
of this body feel like a SFA is warranted,we'll have public debate about it. We'll have a meeting about
it. We'll have work sessions on it. We'll ask our staff to give us recommendations, but you have to
remember, and Dee said it perfectly right,you all are not the only people that live inside that map.
There are lots of businesses. There are lots of people, and we just can't do something to satisfy one
small group of that geography, and not take into consideration everybody that is in that geography. So
that is why we made the decision we made, and we asked him to move it, and put it where it is today, as
a result of our work.
E. George Minns: Why didn't someone let us know?
Dee Oliver: We did. There was a public hearing. You weren't there. It was at Town Center. What was
the date of that? At the SGA Office. It was a workshop. It was open to the public.
Ross Brockwell: And also what we are doing today is kind of presenting the results of that workshop. As
I was going to point out.
Jeff Hodgson: Hold your though real quick. I know Karen has been waiting. Karen?
Karen Kwasny: I think the discrepancy between what you want and what's there,what's been provided,
what's been documented is illustrative of Jeff's initial point, which is that it needs more detailed
attention,with your input with you at the table, your community in the discussion for the shaping of
the SGA. If it is going to go in as a Suburban Focus Area, I'm sorry SFA, it is going to go in as a SFA. One
of the things that was apparent when we were looking at,what we had a workshop is there was a huge
body of historical information in the SFA, which isn't appropriate to the information that goes into the
Comprehensive Plan on a SFA, it is much more technical, and so when we took out the historical vial
information and put it where it belongs,which is in historical resources, and I may add that Seatack has
a significant area of text in the historical resources, and rightfully so. It is a valuable historical resource
to the City of Virginia Beach and we need to recognize these historical resources because we don't
emphasis the draw of our history. It is everyone's history. And so that is the place for that. But when
we put that out what was the more technical aspect of the SFA, we were at a loss because work needed
to be done to put it into the shape of the other SFAs,and frankly,there just isn't the time to do that with
your community at the table. You've illustrated that,you're very displeased with the language in the
historical resource section, and you weren't 100 pleased with what was being done in the SFA, and that
I

suggest to me,going back to Jeff's initial point, that this living breathing document, as Dee said, needs to
be, this part of it needs to be addressed in such a way that we're patient with the process, so that what
needs to be done to highlight the history, mark the area, show the value can be done. Sometimes it's
just a matter of taking a step back, taking a look at the value, and then applying. What we're doing right
now is arguing over what's not in there, and we just need to take some time with it. And it is not the
Red Sea closing. It is actually a door still opening, because there is an opportunity here for us to, really,
have your voices be heard and have the history you like in the Comprehensive Plan,Technical Report
whatever, be there. I think continuing to be divisive about what's not correct and what's not included
isn't helping us get to where we need to be and that is push this forward and come back and do what
needs to be done, and spend some time providing all of us with a history you're convinced we don't
have a value for, and we don't have the knowledge of, and we can't get that in two to three weeks when
we're trying to put together this very dense document in its entirety.
E. George Minns: I am absolutely blown away. That a workshop, I was under the impression at your
workshop you all discuss things but others could not have input.
Michael Inman: We could never do that. We have to out in the open.
E. George Minns: You could be out in the open but, in other words, I could not speak.
Michael Inman: Oh, okay, I'm sorry. You're right.
E. George Minns: So, I wouldn't have input, and I have to work for a living. So the time for me to have
input is today. But I'm hearing that a decision was made in your workshop. I object for the record to
that process.
Ross Brockwell: Well, I can make the point that I was going to make and so that you know, in this
workshop, we had scheduled for two hours and it took 3 1/2 hours. We take this very seriously. One of
the things that we discussed was the merits of recommending in the plan is the Historical Overlay
District, and that recommendation has large consequences, some which are unforeseeable and
unintended and a discussion about, yes of course this is a historic district, should we do a Historical
Overlay District? And there are lots of things that happen when you invoke that mechanism that can't
be hashed out in a two hour workshop and they can't be hashed out here. So, I am just saying this to let
you know that all of these things that you're thinking about are being taken very seriously and
considered very thoroughly but like everyone has said,to put this in the Plan in the format that you
envisioned, we didn't feel it was appropriate and we think we can go forward confidently with the good
recommendation of this Plan in its current form,with plenty of opportunity to address this topic and the
others in the fairness they deserve going forward, so I would just like to reassure you personally that we
take all of these things seriously, and the things that you may be afraid we have done,we haven't done.
We definitely appreciate your commitment and your time and hopefully you understand the things that
we try to highlight here in this discussion. So,thank you.
E. George Minns: I owe Mr. Frankenfield an apology because I felt he did it. Now I am informed that it
was done in a workshop, in which I would have had no voice, even if I had been physically present I
could have no input. Because it wasn't a public hearing, it was a workshop, if I understand correctly,
that's the reason we didn't appear because we assumed it was your workshop.
Dee Oliver: Mr. Minns, when you come to a workshop, it gives you the opportunity to actually see what
Item #D4
City of Virginia Beach
Page 16
we do. What you see up here is not what we do. When we were in the informal, where you are allowed
to come, and nobody is allowed to participate in our conversations,or a workshop that we participate
in, you get to see exactly how we process things, what we do, how we vet certain things, what we want
for the City. What you view of us here isn't the amount of work and though that goes into every single
thing. We want the best for Seatack. We want it to grow. We want it to thrive. We want it to look
fabulous. Those are the things that we discuss, It takes time to get those things done, and there is a
process where in which we are tied to.And in order for us to do that,we have to have more time, but it
is like Commissioner Kwasny said,this has opened the door to allow us to work more in depth in that
area.
E. George Minns: I want to thank all of you that have done anything to help Seatack. Seatack does not
reflect today if you drive through it that anyone has sincerely tried to preserve it. I think you all know
that as well. It is a big difference when you tell a citizen this is a hearing where you can speak versus this
is a workshop,you can only sit and listen, and you have to make a decision to go to work and so forth.
And you don't expect the binding decisions to be made that would have shifted us from where were to
where we are now and that decision to have been made in a workshop. That constitutionally scares me
a little bit. I'm not going to labor anymore.
Jeff Hodgson: Mr. Minns, I know we're not going to come to an agreement here but we did this in your
best interest whether you see that or not.
E. George Minns: I don't.
Jeff Hodgson: I understand.That is your opinion.
Mike Inman: I want to clarify. We didn't make a decision in the workshop. The recommendation on
how to proceed today we're making a decision.
E. George Minns: Someone said,they said they made a decision to move from where it was to here.
Jeff Hodgson: Not a decision, a recommendation.
Mike Inman: The recommendation for changing the draft which was done.
Bob Thornton: The SFA was never approved. It was a recommendation from our leader, Mr.
Frankenfield, and we processed it. We talked about it. We spend three hours working on it. And at the
end of that time, we came to the conclusion this would be a mistake because we're doing it in a hurry,
and quite frankly, what I would like to suggest is, where we've reached the point where we put back on
the table whether it is a good idea or not to create a Special Focus Group,you be part of it. You come
and meet with us. We want your input because you are a big part of that community but you have to
remember you're not all of that community. We need the stakeholders at the table and what we would
call a Special Focus Area. You are part of it. The businesses are a part of it. There are other people that
are part of it. We got to hear that from everybody. If we just did this just for you and the Seatack folks,
we would have the other half of the people that live in that area pretty upset with us because we may
put something in there that limits their ability to use their property. So, once we get to that point, I as
one, and I'll be on this Commission two more years,we want you to work with us. We want a
cooperating working environment. We don't want an adversarial environment. And, so that is my
closing remark.

E. George Minns: Two things. If you saw what we as a people, a packed church saw. There is DVD of it.
That is why we DVD it. What Mr. Frankenfield presented to us that Planning would do. He is the
Director of Planning, and we have every right to believe to what he was telling us about the Suburban
Focus Area, and working on that, when we see we move, an official city record, however it happened
and we never knew that anyone was making a decision on Seatack in a workshop.
Jeff Hodgson: We made a recommendation.
E. George Minns: The other thing is that I understand when you see me standing here, it is not just me.
There are nine churches,4000 some citizens, but I hope the same procedure that is applied to Seatack.
If you make Seatack bring everybody in the community; so, we can see everybody agree with that and
not just you, do the same thing to the rest. But the City records show that special efforts were made to
work with other communities and to get them to where they are. That is special effort wasn't applied to
Seatack, but I am going to leave that right now. I'm going to go back and outline it chronologically how
help was given to others that was not given to Seatack. We operated on basically what was shown to
us.
Jeff Hodgson: I don't know the benefit of that. We are telling you right now we are willing to work with
you, and we did this in the best interest of Seatack. It seems like we're trying to help you but you're
trying to point out all the wrong doings that we did, and that is why I am confused. We did this and
delayed this. I hearing you say that you are blaming us that we did that for your community. I am dumb
founded.
E. George Minns: I am not blaming you for doing something for my community but as adults, if I'm
doing something to impact you, your life,your parent,your hope, dreams and aspirations as an
American citizen,should you not as an adult being informed as to what is being done?
Bob Thornton: That is what today is all about. That is today.
Jeff Hodgson: Just like Aragona Village. Today, we informed them what we were doing. We are not
treating you any different then we treated them.
Karen Kwasny: I think when Barry came to present to your community what he was making was a
recommendation of what could be done with some of your desires, and some of your ideas. And what
he brought back to the Commission, and what we reviewed was how that related to land use plans,
which we are responsible for in the Comprehensive Plan, and that was why we took a look at what was
in the Suburban Focus Area 9,what was in that text and determined what was appropriate to the text
and what was appropriate to another part of the Comprehensive Plan document.So,we simply
separated things out, and we then we took one piece of it and said this still needs attention. And Mr.
Thornton made a very good point about. I understand that you represent a significant body but there
are other pieces of that community that may also, want to be at the table that you don't represent.
That is an important part of the process,that is that open door we're talking about getting bogged
down in parts of the process up to this point that you are displeased with is in impeding the progress
and all of us working together and coming up with a quality piece. And I really almost as a supplicant to
you ask you to focus on what we can do. And I think we all admitted that there have already been
mistakes along the way in terms of how Seatack has been incorporated or addressed in previous
Comprehensive Plans and the documents. Whether or not we agree on that is subject to debate, I'm
sure, for everyone in the room and elsewhere. But I think at the moment were agreeing that more
Item #D4
City of Virginia Beach
Page 18
positive work can be done and that we could do it if we put aside displeasure with process up to this
point and focus on what can be done with the documents at hand.
Bob Thornton: We can't rectify the past. We can only move forward and work with your community,
and do the best we can for your community,the other people in the community and this Commission to
make reasonable recommendations to City Council. At the end of the day,they are the people that
make the decisions. We make recommendations to them, like Barry makes recommendations to us.
And we want to work with you, but dragging up the past does absolutely nothing. We cannot fix the
past. What happened two years or what happened in previous Comprehensive Plan, none of us were
around then, and we want to make this right. We want to make a good document, and as someone said
earlier. This document is constantly being tweaked. We see modifications in the ordinance. We see
modifications in the Comprehensive Plan on a frequent basis. By law,we have to do a Master
Comprehensive rewrite every five years but that doesn't mean we don't look at it when it is needed.The
staff over here brings this stuff to us on a frequent basis and says this is inconsistent with another part
of the plan; so, it is a living and breathing document. We want your input but dragging up the past and
quite frankly, blaming us for the past, we didn't have anything to do with that. We want to be here to
fix it. We want to be part of the solution not the problem.
E. George Minns: I'm not blaming you for the past since you brought that issue up. But I have a duty to
bring to your attention those things that we feel. If this one says don't talk about the past. We've
already suffered through it. Then we get here. You suffer through the past some more. And nobody
wants to touch it. But other things are going on around the City that has been done wrong in the past, is
corrected. But I respect your position today. I will argue mine in another forum.
Jeff Hodgson: Thank you sir.
E. George Minns:Thank you.
Jan Rucinski: We have one more speaker in opposition. Cheryl Snowden with Coastal Virginia
Preservation.
Jeff Hodgson: Good afternoon.
Cheryl Snowden: Good afternoon to everybody
Jan Rucinski: State your name.
Cheryl Snowden: My name is Cheryl Snowden. Today, I am here as Information Officer for Coastal
Virginia Preservation. An organization,we created four of us,and you all know Edna Hendricks, local
historian, black historian, retired Lt.Colonel, United States Army,Jim McCue,who is our Vice President.
B.G. Mills,who is Second Vice President,Seatack Community Civic League, and myself, who wear a
number of hats. I sit on the Vision to Action 2040. I am to an At-large Board member of Seatack
Community Civic League, and a native since 1959, since when I was born. After listening to everybody,
and I'm glad now Barry that we don't have to blame you.
Barry Frankenfield:There is probably some blaming you can do.
Cheryl Snowden: Yeah, I am pretty sure there is. But, what I like to say was Mr. Minns does speak for
I I
Item #D4

Page 19
Seatack Community,those of us the African American land owners and tax payers that live here. We
back him and he backs us. I appreciate everything you guys said about going forward but sometimes
weren't not going to go forward until we know what the past has done to make corrections. My cousin
told me that I'm not going to make any friends trying to make the corrections that we have to make.
But what Coastal Virginia Historical Preservation wants to offer to the City of Virginia Beach is the cited
and referenced historical contributions of Seatack. Not just within the walls of Birdneck Road but also to
from the beginning the Seatack Lifesaving Station that was changed. It is still Seatack. Princess Anne
Hotel was Seatack Hotel, before it was changed. We're not just talking about an African American
community, when we incorporate. I see this light blinking but I do believe I have ten minutes as a group.
Jeff Hodgson: Yes ma'am.
Cheryl Snowden: Okay. We're not just talking about Birdneck Road, Bells Road. We're talking about
Seatack as a whole. With all of this intensive research that we done completed, I got a list right now of
13 items that I could shoot to guys with citations and references to Seatack. Whatever your research is
or whatever you have to do, we can help. I personally would like to see being that this gentleman, Ross
Brockwell is leaving, can we get someone one on this Planning Commission that would help with the,
not only with the research that needs to be done for Seatack, but also a representative because right
now I'm looking at everyone here. Is anyone here from Virginia Beach?
Jeff Hodgson: You many not want to hear this but I'm actually am your representative for Seatack.
Cheryl Snowden: Didn't know!. Just as the law doesn't recognize,we call it ignorance but I am just
going to say this. We've had so many City representatives come to our civic league, and on questioning
and asking why we couldn't do this and why couldn't do that. Not one of them brought up the
Comprehensive Plan. So we could be informed with it. I have a Bachelor's Degree in Information
Management Technology. I have an MBA. You can imagine how I felt after we found out about the
Comprehensive Plan. My family also has a history of the Convention Center of having to be moved by
imminent domain. Not that this is the subject here but I'm just saying my parents were never informed.
They were just given a piece of paper one day. You have to leave basically. So, what Mr. Minns is
talking about I can relate to. When you all talk about I can relate to because I was born and raised here.
And a lot of my friends are black and a lot of my friends are white. But he is still trying to show you all is
that it may not, and you can say that you didn't do it, but we are still talking about the Planning
Commission. Right now, we can't look at you all as individuals, we look at you all as the Planning
Commission. We can't look at Barry as an individual,we look at him as the Planning Director. We can't
look at the SGA. It is agencies that we are looking at. So, Mr. Minns may be kind of aggressive. I am
here to try and soften that blow
Jeff Hodgson: We'll say he is passionate.
Cheryl Snowden: He is very much so. I just want you guys to know that, and I was going to literally to
run down on my list everything that I had but I'm going to hold that information because in these talks
and whatever you guys decide to do today, and it looks to me that you have already made your decision
but can be revised, or looked at, please incorporate some Seatack natives, maybe Coastal Virginia
Presevation. It is not that we focus on black history. We focus on all the history. But, I'm trying to
choose words. I don't want to sound like Mr. Minns, so much.
Jeff Hodgson: It is okay if you sound like Mr. Minns. He didn't say anything wrong.
Item#D4

Cheryl Snowden: I'm just saying I lived here since 1959, a child of desegregation. I've seen things
happen. We've seen procedures. I don't know if our political representation wasn't informing us,which
I thought it wasn't supposed to happen in politics but evidentially it has not happened. We are not
blaming anybody as an individual here, but we do look at you all as a body because just as Mr.
Brockwell, who is going to Italy,will be leaving,that changes nothing about the Planning Commission.
Jeff Hodgson: Were going to miss a big asset.
Cheryl Snowden: I watched you all in the last couple of years to see what was going on. You did have
quite a bit of input. I liked your style and you kept it clean. Sometimes people can talk and they double
talk.So, I think we need to get past the double talking, represent the African American community in
Virginia Beach as a 200 year old African American community that is documented in the Library of
Congress by our Congressman in the Second District, Congressman Scott Rigel. I don't know if you all
knew that but he got on the house floor in May 2013,went to the Capitol building, and he read info to
the Library of Congress that Seatack was the oldest African American community in the United States.
So there is documentation for the history of the community itself, but the community far stretches more
so than just N. Birdneck Road. If we look up all the history in deeds,you might almost have to give the
city back to Seatack. Maybe that might be what the problem is because we really don't want to go back
but we do have to recognize our past before we can move forward on some of these SGAs or what the
Planning Commission wants to do. I am just keeping it real because I am really out of my comfort zone,
don't like being in front of you, but it is almost force. Involve the Seatack community, and what the
community wants. The civic league is a 106 year old civic league. So,when you're saying focus area,
and my understanding. I know that you may be talking about the businesses that have been put there,
some of the people who have recently moved there, but were not talking about present day. We're still
trying to keep it historical. Some kind of way it has to be kept historical, and it also has to be kept
protected. My family still owns a piece of land. They can't do anything but put crops on it. Chesapeake
Bay Preservation,APZ1. A lot of that is not your fault. And I am pretty sure you all probably know other
people like there in our situation, but as far as the effort of the SGA,the Planning Commission so much
taken more land that we have that our grandfathers paid for. We are over 200 years old. We could not
have stood without having people like Mr. Minns speak up for us. Even in some of the technical writings
I've seen in the library, it says that they didn't want that land. I wonder why they didn't want the land?
You had the opportunity to get it. Well,we had the opportunity to get it,we got it and we want to keep
it. That is the bottom line. It is ours. We paid the taxes on it. Like I said,there needs to be more
involvement. You just can't continue to come and decrease and decrease and decrease a community,
an African American Community. I will beseech to all of you, let Coastal Virginia Preservation get
involved with the historical aspect of what you all need to know before you make other decisions
because I don't want to see us in Federal Court. I believe that would destroy our City. That is just what I
believe from my heart. I really do. We all have to make decision as taxpayers,as Commissioners, as
gencies to get this done, passing it today. Please be honest about your word Mr. Hodgson and Mr.
Thornton, because you both expressed that. Don't let it be that we pass it today, and two weeks you
guys are going to Italy.
Bob Thornton: He hasn't invited us. If he invites us.
Cheryl Snowden: I'm just saying because it is not an individual thing. It is the Planning Commission as a
body. Anyone of you or all of you could be gone and replaced any day. It is not an individual thing. So,
your fight is not with Mr. Minns. It is not even a fight. It is about communications. And again Barry, I
am so glad. I like Barry, when we worked on the 2040, I like him. I know that he has a job to do.

Everybody basically has their job to do that works with the City, but also my job as a volunteer to
advocate for those who cannot speak for themselves or who may be misinformed. Please keep us
informed and let's try to do this thing together. Okay?
Jeff Hodgson: Thank you. Are there any questions? Thank you very much for coming down. Is there
anybody else?
Jan Rucinski: I have no more speakers.
Jeff Hodgson: We will close the public hearing and open it up for discussion amongst the Commission.
Jan Rucinski: Maybe what we need to do because I don't think we did this is go ahead and increase the
addendum, the amendments we've done and indicate, put an addition for recommended for further
action is to evaluate the Seatack, and the need for the SFA.
Jeff Hodgon: I have to agree with you on that.
Ross Brockwell: We had discussion on about it in the workshop.
Jan Rucinski: I don't see it. I may have missed it Jeryl, but I went back to look at the bullet points that
we made to make the addition to the changes but I don't see that we putting the other further action
recommendations. And maybe that would help the Seatack community to have a little bit more of a
good feeling that yes, our intentions are to look further, and see if action is needed. What kind of
action? Where it should it be? But just to review that.
Ross Brockwell: Jeff, if I may? We had two Friday workshops when we talked about this at night and the
one we had in the Planning Building. We had four bullet points that I thought they were going to add to
the recommendations. If I am mistaken,the second Friday workshop,we referred back those and
maybe we thought the way those were phrased covered the intent as you just described after our
discussions,the second projected workshop.
Barry Frankenfield: We have them. We have those recommendations. When we moved it to the
Technical Document, the Technical Document doesn't make recommendations so,we have those
recommendations,we'll be able to put them somewhere, but they will not go into the Technical
Document.
Jan Rucinski: But wouldn't they go under in that same section of,well future recommendations in the
Suburban Area. Isn't there a section that has further recommendations?
Jeryl Phillips: Yes. That would be my recommendation that at the end of the Suburban Area Chapter,
there is an agenda for future action recommendation, and that we add an item based on the wording
you suggested that we evaluate the historic Seatack community neighborhood for consideration for
recommendation as a Suburban Focus Area. I think it is very important that we go out, and work with
the community in a non-rushed process, as you said,to identify what are the needs of the community.
What are the needs of the stakeholders? And bring forward a set of recommendations for consideration
for yes or no as a Suburban Focus Area.
Jan Rucinski: Because we may sit down at a table in a workshop that includes everybody in that
Item #D4
City of Virginia Beach
Page 22
conference, and it may be determined that Seatack might say,you know what,we don't want those kind
of restrictions; so, no we would like to have this changed in the Technical Document, if that is in their
best interest. I just think that might give them a little bit more comfort that we are genuine. We're
genuine that we think that area needs to be looked at, what the outcome of that is, we don't know right
now. We won't know until we have an opportunity to review it and look at it.
Ross Brockwell: Hey Jeff, I think page 39 of 40, Chapter 1, Section 1.3. These are the four bullet points
we discussed. And, I remember we heard a lot of discussion about the word evaluate. We changed the
word pursued delineation of the Historical Overlay District to evaluate for that exact reason. So, some of
that leg work we may have already did.
Jan Rucinski: That all went away when we took it out of the SFA and put it into the Technical Report.
Jeff Hodgson: Is everyone okay with adding this to the addendum?
Karen Kwasny: What if the language needs to include, and I don't know that we will assume it will be
part of this but if it could include something that says with significant community outreach and perhaps
even. I think Coastal Virginia Preservation needs to be mentioned in there. They have significant body of
history and they would like a liaison, a Commissioner or someone to provide research, leg work with
them to liaison with them, and that a recommendation be a part of that.
Jan Rucinski: I don't think it is necessary to be listing all of those people because if we forget someone.
Karen Kwasny: Outreach would cover that. Having that phrase in there references those people beyond
just the Seatack community itself, other organizations. That is all that I am saying. Community outreach
might be appropriate for that recommendation.
Jeff Hodgson: You got all that wording for us?
Jeryl Phillips: Again, I would recommend there would be an agenda for future action recommendation
item added to partner with the Seatack community, and the stakeholders there to identify what the land
use needs are. There could be other needs identified as part of that process. I'm comfortable with an
evaluation on whether or into this should a Suburban Focus Area that could include things as looking
into a Historical Cultural Overlay District,etc. Whatever comes forward as part of that process? But,
committing to that as a recommendation here, I think will go very far.
Jeff Hodgson: Okay. Does anybody else have any other discussion on this?
Jan Rucinski: How does that affect our ability to move forward with this?
Kay Wilson: It doesn't. You're going to vote on D4, approve or not approve the Comprehensive Plan
and D3 is simply forwarding it to with your recommendation, and we're going to add this extra condition
into the addendum that you're voting on, and it is included in your resolution.
Jeff Hodgson: Is there anybody else? Would anybody like to make a motion?
Jan Rucinski: I will. I would make a motion that we approve the Comprehensive Plan with the revision,
and the addendum that we have been provided today, and send it forward to City Council.

introduction because it is very insightful to the City of Virginia Beach, and when I was looking through it,
I was absolute amazed at the accolades that the City has gotten from the Nation just in the last, maybe
ten years, so it is definitely worth reading that. It will make you proud to be part of the City.

Re: Chapter 729 review of Virginia Beach's proposed Transportation & Comprehensive
Plans
Dear Mr. Shea
We have completed our Chapter 729 review of Virginia Beach's proposed Transportation &
Comprehensive Plans. The plans are extremely well done&offer a great deal of information to
guide the City Council &Mayor regarding land use, transportation planning&its Capital
Improvement Plan.
Our review was focused on the state's Ch. 729 requirements & the locality's following three Plan
documents:
• Master Transportation Plan- 37 pages
• Comprehensive Plan, Technical Document-247 pages
• Plan Reference Handbook-83 pages
The following are our Chapter 729 comments related to the above three documents:
1. CoSS Identification-Page 85 of the Technical Document includes a map of the state's
CoSS. Virginia Beach has three CoSS: Interstate 64, U.S. 13 & U.S. 58. In addition to
the statewide map,the Plan should include the identification of these three routes&the
importance to the overall transportation plan.
2. Transportation needs & recommendations- These are discussed in great detail &mapped
within the entire Master Transportation Plan. This item is acceptable.
3. Hierarchy of highways— Included primarily from pages 5 to 8 within the Master
Transportation Plan. This is also discussed throughout the entire Master document.
4. Transportation map including projects & costs
• This Chapter 729 requirement needs to be addressed within the final version of
the Plan. Beginning on page 90 of the Comprehensive Plan Technical Document,
there is a list"Primary Improvements." There were some of Virginia Beach's Six
Year Improvement Plan projects listed here with some of the related costs.
• Not all of Virginia Beach's SYIP projects need to be included in the
document(s). Projects that should be included are those that are"significant new,
improved, or relocated" highway projects on Rural Major or Urban Collector(or
higher classification)roadways that involve either a new location, a relocated
roadway, or adding one or more through lanes or an interchange.
• I have attached a PDF document listing all of Virginia Beach's projects in the
SYIP and a spreadsheet listing the SYIP projects vs those shown in the report.
The projects you have shown in the"Primary Improvements"list are adequate to
meet this requirement but the estimated costs do not line up in for all of the
projects and should be addressed.
Should you have any questions, please contact this office at the VDOT Hampton Roads District
at 757-925-1525.
ALincerely, .
