ADD ON
"BEACH WEEKND"
Mayor Sessoms welcomed Chief Cervera. Chief Cervera expressed his appreciation to City Council for
their continued support and introduced Captain Adams to present the information from this past
"BEACH WEEKEND".
Captain Adams advised the number of arrests and incidents are down from previous years. Captain
Adams advised the City Staff's planning for the weekend was meticulous and Chief Zuccaro did a
wonderful job. Everyone is extremely proud of the efforts which made the weekend safe, fun and
successful.
Chief Cervera advised Captain Adams, Deputy Chief Zuccaro and everyone involved in the planning
effort that they left no stone unturned. The Police Department sent representatives to the colleges and
universities throughout the State in order to educate students and provide all of the information to ensure
the students would have a good time without incident. The City created a Public Safety Campaign and it
seems to have really made an impact. The City set-up a "Student Outreach Center"in the 2000 Block of
Atlantic Avenue just in case someone got separated from their party or if there were any questions or
concerns. The Police Department used this weekend as a recruiting opportunity since there were a large
number of minority college age students. They are happy to report there were sixteen (16) students that
expressed interest. The Police received 290 calls for service and made 11 felony and 80 misdemeanor
arrests. Unfortunately, there were firearms on Atlantic Avenue this weekend; specifically,four(4) of the
previously mentioned arrests were illegal possession of a firearm or concealed weapons. The City will
look at the data in order to plan for next year to ensure the City is closing the gaps. Chief Cervera
advised he is proud of the effort and interaction the Officers had with the students, engaging the students
in a positive way where the students felt extremely safe and they were happy to do whatever was asked of
them to cooperate. Chief Cervera stated this continues to be a City-Wide effort this year and the
Department will begin planning for next year again soon.
Mayor Sessoms thanked the Police Department and all of the Public Safety Employees for a great job.

Vice Mayor Louis R. Jones
and Members of City Council
RE: Light Rail Extension Decisions
Dear Vice Mayor and Council Members:
This is to advise you that we have confirmed from Secretary of Transportation Aubrey Layne that
the state will commit their $155M cost share first in the funding of the Light Rail Extension to
Virginia Beach. This is significant as it affords us an opportunity to reduce the costs to our
taxpayers should we move in a timely manner and receive significant competition for the
construction contract. Funding necessary to complete the FEIS and accompanying 30% design is
being provided by the FTA and will begin upon our Locally Preferred Alternative decision which
is currently scheduled prior to our FY16 Budget vote on May 12th. Certainly we know that our
choices are to complete the study and obtain a Record of Decision (ROD) or walk away. We
strongly encourage each of us to continue our support of Vision 2040 and support the staff
recommendation to pursue alternative 1 A—extend light rail to our Town Center.
Contained in our FY16 City Manager's Proposed Budget are two CIP projects: CIP Project 2-108,
Light Rail Corridor Shared Use Path ($2.5M); and CIP Project 2-092, Virginia Beach Transit
Extension Project ($17.5M). These CIP projects are necessary to allow the City to quickly obtain
competitive bids for the project once the FTA has issued the ROD. The individual work items
associated with the combined$20M outlay are:
$5.0M Light Rail Vehicle down payment for one vehicle ($2.5M City/$2.5M State)
$2.5M Light Rail Corridor Shared Use Path Design
$2.5M AE contract for oversight and documentation of the 30%Design(by HRT)
$3.0M Bridging Documents with Technical Specifications for the RFP
$4.0M Utility Relocations
$3.0M ROW Acquisition and Easements
The light rail funding of 1.8¢ real estate rate increase, the ARP and Open Space rededications and
the vehicle registration increase are included in the FY16 budget so as to reduce the necessary tax
rates needed to support these projects. If these rate increases are delayed to the FY17 or FYI8
budgets; then rate increases would need to be higher.
Vice Mayor Louis R. Jones and Members of City Council
RE: Light Rail Extension Decisions
April 28, 2015
Page 2
Since several of you have expressed a concern about ordering the rail vehicles prior to our final
project decision following receipt of the ROD we have consulted with the Secretary and he has
agreed to hold us harmless should the project not proceed upon failure to receive the ROD from
the FTA or we decide not to proceed if the cost exceeds the HRT estimate of$327 million. He
would credit the cost of the rail car from the Right-of-Way cost of repayment we would be
required to make to the State.
As has been previously mentioned, the State is offering to provide us a very low interest loan for
up to $30 million at an interest rate in the 1% to 1.5% range. Finally, VDOT has also agreed to
pay 68% of the cost(rather than 50%) to acquire the twelve additional buses needed to improve the
LRT supportive bus routes and schedules.
We are encouraging HRT to elicit a 12 month design period from their intended A/E designer so
that we can potentially obtain the ROD in November 2016. This would allow the City to complete
the RFP process in the third/fourth quarter of FY17. With the actual cost of the project in hand, we
can make the final decision on whether or not to approve the light rail extension project. If we do
not fund the preparatory work necessary to complete the designs and prepare the contracting
documents,we will be delayed until 2018 before we can complete the RFP process.
After years of analysis and planning we are poised to make a decision of historic importance in
shaping our future as a community and region. A viable public transportation system is an
essential ingredient in realizing our vision of a connected community. This decision is about our
next generation and the quality of life and economy they will inherit. Our support on May 12th
will permit project implementation to move to the next step.
Thank you.
Sincerely,
%//( (.(/ 1%,

INCREASING REGIONAL MAGNETISM
"But it is legitimate to ask;Shouldn't we endeavor to improve our region and make it more
attractive to ourselves and to others?And,doesn't that take investment?The answer to both
questions is'yes,'but we must be careful how we go about this. We are capable of making our
region more attractive
- Increasing its magnetism—by well chosen investments in infrastructure and amenities.
Attractions such as the Norfolk Tides,The Mariner's Museum and the Virginia Aquarium not
only entice outside quests,but also keep our own expenditures within Hampton Roads"

Relevant Information
Enlargement and Relocation of a Nonconforming Use
• The site is zoned R-10 and has an area of 28,831
square feet.
• There are two single-family houses on the site, both
constructed in 1941 , prior to the adoption of the
Princess Anne County Zoning Ordinance.
• The current Zoning Ordinance does not permit two
single-family houses on one lot; therefore, the current
use of the parcel is nonconforming. Any change in the
nonconformity of the parcel is allowed only by
resolution of the City Council.
• The applicant proposes to enlarge the two houses, as
well as move one of the houses from its current
orientation parallel to the side lot lines to an orientation
perpendicular to the side lot lines.

Relevant Information
Variance to the Subdivision Regulations
• The subject site has a lot area of 13,500 SF and a lot width of
100 feet. A single-family dwelling is currently located on the
lot
• The applicant proposes to subdivide the lot into two, each 50'
in width and 6,750 SF in area, and to construct a single-
family dwelling on each.
• The lots will meet the dimensional requirements for lots in
the R-5R District; however, proposed Lot J-2 will be a corner
lot, adjacent to an unimproved portion of Hannah Lane.
• The Section 4.4 (c)(1) of the Subdivision Regulations requires
new corner lots to be 10' wider than the minimum width
required by the Zoning Ordinance for interior lots.
• The applicant, therefore, is requesting a variance for Lot J-2
since it is proposed with a lot width of 50' instead of the
required 60'.

Relevant Information
Conditional Use Permit for a Religious Use (church) and
Childcare Facility in conjunction with a Religious Use.
• There is an existing house, built in 1936, on the subject site.
• The house was originally used as the church's parsonage;
however, it has most recently been used for storage and
classroom space.
• The house is in poor condition, and the church, citing that the
house is also `functionally obsolete' for its purposes,
proposes to demolish it.
• After demolition, the church proposes to place a modular
building on the site, which will be used for classrooms, youth
programs, Sunday school, community meeting rooms, and
storage.
• The rear yard of the existing house has been, and will
continue to be, used for a childcare facility.
• There is currently no Use Permit for the subject site;
therefore, the applicant is seeking a Use Permit for both uses.

• The applicant requests permission to demolish two
existing single-family dwellings located on the
subject lot, and to then construct two new single-
family dwellings.
• The existing dwellings were built in 1947, prior to
the adoption of a zoning ordinance.
• The current City Zoning Ordinance does not permit
more than one single-family or duplex dwelling to
be built on one lot within the R-5R Resort
Residential District.
• Accordingly, the two single-family dwellings on
one lot are nonconforming uses, as provided for by
Section 105 of the City Zoning Ordinance.
