Approximately 45% of the General Fund Revenue comes from the housing market. At the peak of the
Recession, short or distressed sales made-up 28%of all home sales and, more importantly, sold for about
15%below the assessed value. Today, distressed sales are approximately 11%of sales and foreclosures
are currently below their pre-Recessionary levels:

The graph below shows increases in the Average Daily Rate (ADR) rather than occupancy achieved the
growth during the past ten (10) years. More wealthy visitors serve as one reason for the increase in
ADR. The City has an opportunity to grow the Hotel Industry and the Convention and Visitors Bureau

Mr. Hanzaker advised research of a noted economist (Robert Shiller from Yale University) indicates that
3.35% represents the long-term average for Real Estate. Real Estate Appreciation in the City has
exceeded that mark(3.52%) since record keeping began here; however, this growth does not occur in a
linear manner and means the economy experiences highs and lows:

Real Estate Revenue for FY2017-18 is anticipated to grow 3% which is a $16-Million increase from FY
2016-17. Beyond FY 2017-18, Real Estate is anticipated to grow at roughly 3%. Since Real Estate
represents almost 50% of the General Fund's total revenue, the variance of this revenue source is
especially important for the fiscal stability of the City:

General Sales had been growing by about 3%per year until FY2015-16 when the Revenue increased by
5%. The Restaurant Meals Tax is anticipated to grow 4.8% in FY 2017-18 and 4% in the following
years. After FY 2017-18, BPOL growth is anticipated to increase by approximately 2% as new
businesses exit the two-year exemption program and begin paying for licenses. Hotel Tax Revenue has
increased between 4%and 5%annually in recent years and, as such, an increase of 4.8%is expected in

On the City's side, Federal Revenue is projected to grow approximately $200,000 per year from FY
2017-18 through FY 2021-22 as a result of the uncertain impact of Sequestration. On the Schools'side,
Federal Revenue is likely to decline from$12.5-Million in FY 2016-17 to approximately$12.2-Million for
FY 2017-18 and then remain flat over the rest of the forecast period. The slide below shows the combined

In 2007, the State replaced all local telecommunication and cell phone taxes with a uniform 5% tax
promising revenue neutrality. The tax applies only to the use of"Minutes", not "Data", on cell phones;
minimal "Data" service existed in 2007 compared to now and pre paid cell phones are exempt. This is
just another example of taxes not keeping up with emerging technology trends; and, if we actually
achieved revenue neutrality, through a higher rate or broader application of the tax, it would generate an
additional$6.1-Million annually:

Over the past several years, discussion has ensued about possible revenue neutral ways of restructuring
taxes in Virginia. One option discussed is to expand the sales tax to include services in addition to retail
sales and lowering the overall rate for tax neutrality:

This General Fund Forecast is considerably more optimistic than in years past mainly due to the
recovery of Real Estate, Personal Property and consumer related revenues. Last year's Five-Year
Forecast included a $15-Million deficit in the first year and $18.5-Million in the final year of the
Forecast. It did not include a pay increase in the assumptions. Obviously, a higher level of uncertainty
exists in the future years of the Forecast. The key to any Forecast is the underlying assumptions and
should they change, the surplus/deficit changes as well. The following slides provide sensitivity analyses
of key variables:

VBCPS is one of only a handful of public school divisions in Virginia without full-day kindergarten for
every eligible student. Schools currently offer a full-day program at Title I Schools but all other
elementary schools in the division have `half-day programs; however, each elementary school offers at
least one Extended Day Kindergarten (EDK) class. Recent estimates for implementation total $11.2-
Million, without factoring the budgetary impacts of capital outlay requirements to accommodate
expanding the program across the Division (e.g. portable classrooms). The slide below illustrates the
variance between the projected baseline deficit and the adjusted shortfall from a five-year phased
implementation offull-day kindergarten for all eligible VBCPS students:

Projected Light Rail Expenditures", a copy of each is attached hereto and made a part of this record. As
of June 30, 2016, the Multi-Modal Fund had a balance of$14,976,969-Million. By the end of June 30,
2017, $15,710,723 is the estimated Revenue for Light Rail for a combined available funding of$30.687-
Million. The current expenditures total $3.353-Million which leaves an estimated balance of$27.334-
Million for redistribution on June 30, 2017. Also included is the projected funding for FY2018. It is
important to note the expenditures do not include the potential reimbursement to the State for the right-
of-way cost of$20-Million. The City has expended a total of$18.8-Million, including the Norfolk
Southern right-of-way purchased years ago; but, does not include the reimbursements of$20-Million to
the State or$5-Million to HRT.
Council Lady Henley feels it is important to determine what the alternatives may be and believes the City
Council should have already determined; however, that is a moot point at this time. The City is
committed to improving transportation and it is important to begin this public process quickly as the
funds are allocated for "transportation". In talking about the future health and economic development of
the City, it is understood that the City will continue to grow and transit must be included for this to
happen.
Councilman Dyer agrees with a tremendous amount of Council Lady Henley's remarks. He feels this
project lacked an overall Comprehensive Plan and that attributed to so many Citizens being skeptical.
The City needs to be open-minded with the emerging technologies on the horizon and go forward with a
BOLD VISION for the City's future.
Council Lady Kane advised many Citizens were disheartened that Light Rail failed as the need for public
transportation remains. The SGA's were built around the theory of Light Rail and the City should go
back and look at these areas. She questioned whether some of the funds could go to alleviate the pay
compression the City faces but feels the bulk of this money should go toward stormwater and drainage.
The Citizens and neighborhoods must be protected from a repeat of Hurricane Matthew. She disagrees
with Councilman Moss'Facebook post of returning the money back to the Citizens and lower the tax-rate
as the City has plenty of needs.

CITY MANAGER'S BRIEFINGS
LIGHT RAIL DISCUSSION
ITEM#66508
(Continued)
Council Lady Wilson agrees there is no shortage of needs to keep the City safe and vibrant but would like
to be advised of the costs of some of the suggested projects. The City has an underserved mass
transportation system and that must be addressed. The City purchased the Norfolk Southern right-of-way
which is considered to be the "spine" of the City and the City must take advantage of this property.
Council Lady Wilson asked for the cost of Express Buses in conjunction with the enhanced bus services.
Also, she would like the City to consider enhancing the Para-Transit services in the City to help the aging
or disabled population.
Councilman Uhrin advised the City has a lot to consider but wants to remind the City Council the SGA
Plans appeared in the Comprehensive Plan in 2004, well before Light Rail discussions had begun. The
SGA's were identified by the City for potential of redevelopment and they happen to be along a "single-
route", they are silent on what the mode of transportation should be.
Council-Lady Ross-Hammond feels the message was not delivered to the Citizens in a way that they
understood. This was not just about Light Rail but actually many more components of transportation.
This is an opportunity for lessons learned and the City to move forward in a positive manner.
Councilman Wood feels it is important to not immediately say what the City is going to do with the
balance of the funds and agrees with Council Lady Henley's thoughts on public process beginning sooner
rather than later. The City spent ten (10)years working on Light Rail and feels it would be an injustice to
spend twenty (20)minutes discussing where the remaining funds should be allocated.
Council Lady Henley advised she spoke to the consulting firm that was involved in the SGA process and
they reiterated the SGA's were transit-ready and not transit-dependent. There may be some broad
alternatives; but, the costs need to be known. She requested Staff bring some forward possible next steps.
Also, she would like to see the City host a Town Hall and ask those opponents of Light Rail what they
actually would like to see happen in the City regarding transportation.
Councilman Moss advised a lot like the National Election, the Light Rail decision is hard to accept but it
is important to listen to the Citizens. Councilman Moss proposed six (6) different scenarios on his
Facebook and agrees that a decision should not be made in haste. Councilman Moss does not feel the
City should just reject the notion to de-authorize the tax rate increase for Light Rail. These specific taxes
were adopted to fund Light Rail and it should be undone. When the time comes and a decision is made to
move forward, then readopt a tax increase.

CITY MANAGER'S BRIEFINGS
LIGHT RAIL DISCUSSION
ITEM#66508
(Continued)
Council Lady Henley advised she recalls when the tax increase was adopted, it was for multi-modal
transportation and not specific to Light Rail.
Mayor Sessoms appreciates the discussion to make sure the City continues to grow and provide more bus
service and mass transit within the City. The purchase of the right-of-way was one of the best things the
City has ever done and he believes the City can work smartly to avoid having to reimburse the $20-
Million to the State.

INVOCATION: Pastor Stacy Potts

PLEDGE OF ALLEGIANCE TO THE FLAG OF THE UNITED STATES OF AMERICA
Mayor Sessoms DISCLOSED he is retired from Towne Bank (which has a corporate office located at
297 Constitution Drive in Virginia Beach), and no longer has any involvement in Towne Bank's
transactions. However, due to the size of TowneBank and the volume of transactions it handles, Towne
Bank has an interest in numerous matters in which he is not personally involved and of which he does not
have personal knowledge. In that regard, he is always concerned about the appearance of impropriety
that might arise if he unknowingly participates in a matter before City Council in which TowneBank has
an interest. Mayor Sessoms also has similar concerns with respect to Berkshire Hathaway Home Services
Town Realty, which is an affiliate of Towne Bank. In order to ensure his compliance with both the letter
and spirit of the State and Local Government Conflict of Interests Act (the "Act"), it is his practice to
thoroughly review each City Council agenda to identify any matters in which he might have an actual or
potential conflict. If, during his review of an agenda, he identifies a matter in which he has a `personal
interest", as defined by the Act, he will either abstain from voting, or file the appropriate disclosure letter
with the City Clerk to be included in the official records of City Council. Mayor Sessoms' letter of
January 13, 2015, is hereby made a part of the record.
November 15, 2016

Vice Mayor Jones DISCLOSED,for many years, he served on the Board of Directors of Resource Bank.
Three (3)years ago, Fulton Financial Corporation ("Fulton Financial')purchased Resource Bank. On
March 31, 2007, Vice Mayor Jones retired from the Board of Directors. Although, he is no longer a
Board Member, he owns stock in Fulton Financial and that stock ownership causes him to have a
"personal interest" in Fulton Financial. However, due to the size of Fulton Financial and the volume of
transactions it handles in any given year, Fulton Financial, or any of the banks that are owned by Fulton
Financial, may have an interest in numerous matters in which Vice Mayor Jones has no personal
knowledge. In order to ensure his compliance with both the letter and the spirit of the State and Local
Government Conflict of Interests Act, it is his practice to thoroughly review the agenda for each meeting
of City Council for the purpose of identifying any matters in which he might have an actual or potential
conflict. If, during his review, he identifies any matters, Vice Mayor Jones will prepare and file the
appropriate disclosure letter to be recorded in the official records of City Council. Vice Mayor Jones
regularly makes this disclosure. Vice Mayor Jones'letter of April 10, 2007, is hereby made a part of the
record.
Council Lady Rosemary Wilson DISCLOSED she is a Real Estate Agent affiliated with Berkshire
Hathaway Home Services Town Realty ("Berkshire Hathaway'), which was formerly known as
Prudential Towne Realty. Because of the nature of Real Estate Agent affiliation and the volume of
transactions it handles in any given year, Berkshire Hathaway has an interest in numerous matters in
which she is not personally involved and of which she does not have personal knowledge. In order to
ensure her compliance with both the letter and the spirit of the State and Local Government Conflict of
Interests Act, it is her practice to thoroughly review the agenda for each meeting of City Council for the
purpose of identifying any matters in which she might have an actual or potential conflict. If, during her
review she identifies any matters, she will prepare and file the appropriate disclosure letter to be
recorded in the official records of City Council. Council Lady Wilson regularly makes this disclosure.
Council Lady Wilson's letter of January 13, 2015, is hereby made a part of the record.
Council Lady Rosemary Wilson also DISCLOSED she has a personal interest in Dixon Hughes
Goodman and receives income from the firm as a result of her late husband's employment. The income is
proceeds from the sale of his partnership interest,paid out over an extended period of time. She is not an
employee of Dixon Hughes Goodman, does not have any role in management of the company and does is
not privy to its client list. However, due to the size of Dixon Hughes Goodman and the volume of
transactions it handles in any given year, Dixon Hughes Goodman may have an interest in matters of
which she has no personal knowledge. In that regard, she is always concerned about the appearance of
impropriety that might arise if she unknowingly participates in a matter before City Council in which
Dixon Hughes Goodman has an interest. In order to ensure her compliance with both the letter and spirit
of the State and Local Government Conflict of Interests Act (the "Act'), it is her practice to thoroughly
review each City Council agenda to identify any matters in which she might have an actual or potential
conflict. If, during her review of an agenda, she identifies a matter in which she has a `personal
interest", as defined by the Act, she will either abstain from voting, or file the appropriate disclosure
letter with the City Clerk to be included in the official records of City Council. Council Lady Wilson's
letter of June 2, 2015, is hereby made a part of the record.

EXHIBIT A
Summary of Committee Findings to Date
Recommendations relating to legislation in the General Assembly:
A. Committee believes that online rentals in residential communities already exist, are
widespread, and cannot be effectively eliminated (the toothpaste is out of the tube);
however, the regulation of this activity should be subject to local ordinances rather than
statewide control.
B. Committee believes that all local taxes should be remitted directly to the locality rather
than the state and that the local tax official should have the ability to audit.
C. Committee believes that a requirement for appropriate insurance coverage is critical.
Many homeowners may not realize that they do not have coverage for rental of their
homes under their homeowners' policies.
D. Committee believes that the General Assembly should grant authority to localities to
promulgate health and safety requirements to address parity with other transient
occupancy providers and to ensure that rental dwellings are reasonably safe.

Chief Edward Brazle
Virginia Beach Department of Emergency Medical Services
477 Viking Drive, Suite 130
Virginia Beach,VA 23452
Dear Sir:
Ocean Park Volunteer Rescue Squad (OPVRS) is formally requesting a City of Virginia Beach loan
in the amount of$175,000 to complete the purchase of an ambulance to replace Unit 146437. (VIN
1FVACVDD45HU29774)which is a 2004 Type I Ambulance on a Medium Duty Freightliner FL-60 chassis.
Additionally,these funds will be used to add and fully outfit a fourth ambulance for the OPVRS fleet.
This will be accomplished with the acquisition of a pair of 2008 Wheeled Coach used ambulances which
were formerly in service with the Richmond Airport Fire Department.
These funds will cover the purchase cost of both of these ambulances and all of the equipment
required to outfit and place into service a fourth ambulance including LifePak monitor, computer
systems, PowerPro stretcher and PowerLoad lift systems. We anticipate that the ambulances have seven
years of useful service left in them while the remaining equipment has a functional life of ten years.
At this time, OPVRS is current on one outstanding loan with the City of Virginia.There is
$41,152.80 remaining on that loan. Our hope is that you will consider this request favorably. It would be
our intention to repay the loan in full within ten years in 10 equal annual base payments of$17,500.00
plus any interest or handling fees the City may require.
Respectfully,
7-17
Gerald L. Kerr

following agreement as defined below:

officers access to those records.
RESPONSIBILITIES OF THE RESCUE SQUAD
A. The RESCUE SQUAD shall repay the loan for the vehicles according to the Promissory
Note. The RESCUE SQUAD shall have the ability to request reasonable relief on the due date/amount
should extenuating circumstances occur. This request shall be made to the EMS Chief no less than 30
days prior to the payment due date, and the EMS Chief may provide an extension not to exceed six
months upon a written determination that the extension is the result of extenuating circumstances. No
more than one extension shall be granted without authorization from the City Council.

Dear Barry,
Please find attached the Lynnhaven River NOW Grant Proposal for the City Of Virginia Beach. Also
attached is a spreadsheet that breaks out the costs summarized in the Grant Proposal.
We present this proposal to further our Partnership with the City of Virginia Beach in the areas of
environmental education and outreach,advocacy, and restoration begun by Lynnhaven River NOW and
the City in 2002. During the past fourteen years,we have accomplished remarkable improvements in
water quality as well as restoration of vital marine habitats. And we have educated tens of thousands of
Virginia Beach citizens about the critical importance of caring for their river.
Despite these accomplishments, many challenges lie ahead for Virginia Beach as we strive to meet the
increasingly strenuous requirements of the TMDL program and our MS4 Permit, as well as
implementation of our own Sustainability Plan,Oyster Heritage Plan, and the US Army Corps of
Engineers Restoration Plan.
Our waterways are central to our way of life in Virginia Beach. We appreciate the priority that the City
has established for restoring and protecting those waterways and know that even more can be
accomplished as we continue to work together.
Sincerely,
Andrew S. Fine

Lynnhaven River NOW
Grant Proposal for the City of Virginia Beach
Revised November 3, 2016
Introduction
Lynnhaven River NOW's (LRNow) Restoration, Advocacy, Pearl School, Pearl Faith Community
and new Pearl Business Programs are designed to educate and engage the community in ways
that will reduce the quantity of stormwater and reduce the pollutants in our stormwater. Our
two efforts, LRNow and the City, are complementary. There are many things that Lynnhaven
River NOW can do to help the City improve water quality, restore our marine ecosystems and
engage the community in these efforts. And there are resources and opportunities that the
City can provide that further our shared goal of clean, healthy waterways. This partnership
has worked well for both organizations. LRNow is a flexible, pragmatic and creative
organization able to perform tasks at a fraction of the cost the city would incur and some
tasks that would be impossible for city staff to perform.
During the past decade we have worked together to
• open 44% of the Lynnhaven River to shellfish harvest.
• establish a No Discharge Zone in the Lynnhaven.
• build 63 acres of sanctuary oyster reef and substantially increase our native oyster
population.
• move from an annual loss of wetlands to an annual gain in wetlands.
• enroll over 2,500 families in our Pearl Home program.
• regularly air public service announcements regarding responsible practices on VBTV.
• institute a dynamic and successful scoop the poop campaign throughout the city.
• promote excellent environmental education programs in all of our public and private
schools and to recognize 78 Pearl Schools creating new generations of environmental
stewards.
• educate congregations and facilitate improved stormwater management in our Pearl
Faith communities.
• assist waterfront property owners with improved shoreline management practices.
• develop strategies for protecting and preserving our valuable marsh islands.
• establish responsible environmental management as a priority for all residents of
Virginia Beach.
• educate thousands of Virginia Beach residents.
Together, we have been a leader in the region and many of our programs have been emulated
by others. Our few, but important, public positions on the Asian Oyster, preservation of
Pleasure House Point, light rail, off-shore drilling, and menhaden harvest limits have had
valuable impact.
As proud as we all should be of these accomplishments, many equally difficult challenges lie
ahead. Finding solutions to sea level rise and increased flooding that also contribute to
improving water quality is a major challenge. Meeting increased regulatory demands in ways
that do not stifle economic growth and the vitality of our community and continuing to
engage the community in understanding and supporting the work that is necessary, and the
increased funding that may be needed to support that work, are all areas where LRNow can
continue to support and complement the work of the city staff and city leadership.
As our programs and outreach have continued to grow and expand to include the entire city,
so has the cost of administering those programs. We are requesting a city grant to provide
critical funding to allow us to continue these successful and effective programs. These funds
will be supplemented with other grant funding, volunteer man hours, and individual and
foundation donations. This funding will allow us to continue to grow the excellent programs
1
that have produced the significant accomplishments of the past decade and will help our city
to continue to meet the challenges of the next decade and be the cleanest, greenest city on
the East Coast all at a fraction of the potential cost of a city program.

JOHNSTON GROUP MANAGEMENT & DEVELOPMENT, L.L.C., a Virginia limited liability
company("F&J", to be indexed as grantor); ABP VA (VIRGINIA BEACH), LLC, a Delaware limited
liability company ("ABP") (hereinafter referred to collectively as the "Grantors"); and the CITY OF
VIRGINIA BEACH, a municipal corporation of the Commonwealth of Virginia(hereinafter referred to
as the "Grantee",and to be indexed as grantee).
WITNESSETH:
WHEREAS, ABP is the current owner of that certain property located in the City of Virginia
Beach, Virginia, identified as GPIN No. 1467-92-5752-0000 (the"Property"), which is more particularly
described in the legal description attached hereto and incorporated herein by reference as Exhibit A; and
WHEREAS,F&J is the contract purchaser of the Property; and
WHEREAS, the Grantors have initiated an amendment to the Zoning Map of the City of
Virginia Beach, Virginia, by petition addressed to the Grantee, so as to change the classification of the
Property from I-1 to Conditional A-36; and
WHEREAS, the Grantee's policy is to provide only for the orderly development of land for
various purposes, including mixed-use purposes, through zoning and other land development legislation.
The Grantors acknowledge that competing and sometimes incompatible uses conflict, and that in order to
permit differing uses on and in the area of the subject Property and at the same time to recognize the
effects of the change and the need for various types of uses, certain reasonable conditions governing the
use of the Property for the protection of the community that are not generally applicable to land similarly
zoned A-36 are needed to cope with the situation to which the Grantors' rezoning application gives rise;
and
WHEREAS, the Grantors have voluntarily proffered in writing in advance of and prior to the
public hearing before the Grantee, as part of the proposed conditional amendment to the Zoning Map, in
addition to the regulations provided for in the existing A-36 zoning districts by the existing City's Zoning
Ordinance (CZO), the following reasonable conditions related to the physical development, operation
and use of the Property to be adopted as a part of said amendment to the new Zoning Map relative to the
Property, all of which have a reasonable relation to the rezoning and the need for which are generated by
the rezoning; and
WHEREAS, said conditions having been proffered by the Grantors and allowed and accepted by
the Grantee as part of the amendment to the Zoning Ordinance, such conditions shall continue in full
force and effect until a subsequent amendment changes the zoning on the Property covered by such
GPIN NOS.: 1467-92-5752-0000
28020156v1
conditions; provided, however, that such conditions shall continue despite a subsequent amendment if the
subsequent amendment is part of the comprehensive implementation of a new or substantially revised
zoning ordinance, unless, notwithstanding the foregoing, these conditions are amended or varied by
written instrument recorded in the Clerk's Office of the Circuit Court of the City of Virginia Beach,
Virginia and executed by the record owner of the subject Property at the time of recordation of such
instrument; provided, further, that said instrument is consented to by the Grantee in writing as evidenced
by a certified copy of the ordinance or resolution adopted by the governing body of the Grantee, after a
public hearing before the Grantee advertised pursuant to the provisions of the Code of Virginia, Section
15.2-2204, which said ordinance or resolution shall be recorded along with said instrument as conclusive
evidence of such consent.
NOW THEREFORE, the Grantors, for themselves, their successors, assigns, grantees, and
other successors in title or interest, voluntarily and without any requirement by or exaction from the
Grantee or its governing body and without any element of compulsion of quid pro quo for zoning,
rezoning, site plan, building permit or subdivision approval, hereby make the following declaration of
conditions and restrictions which shall restrict and govern the physical development, operation and use of
the Property and hereby covenant and agree that these proffers (collectively, the "Proffers") shall

exhibited to the Virginia Beach City Council.
3. The number of multifamily residential units located on the Property, when developed,
shall not exceed a total of three-hundred seventy(370).
4. Further conditions lawfully imposed by applicable development ordinances may be
required by the Grantee during detailed site plan and/or subdivision review and administration of
applicable City Codes by all cognizant City agencies and departments to meet all applicable City Code
requirements.
All references hereinabove to zoning districts and to regulations applicable thereto, refer to the
City Zoning Ordinance of the City of Virginia Beach, Virginia, in force as of the date the conditional
zoning amendment is approved by the Grantee. The Grantors covenant and agree that (1) the Zoning
Administrator of the City of Virginia Beach, Virginia shall be vested with all necessary authority on
behalf of the governing body of the City of Virginia Beach, Virginia to administer and enforce the
foregoing conditions, including (i) the ordering in writing of the remedying of any noncompliance with

WHEREAS, the Grantee's policy is to provide only for the orderly development of
land for various purposes through zoning and other land development legislation; and
WHEREAS, the Grantors acknowledge that the competing and sometimes
incompatible uses conflict and that in order to permit differing uses on and in the area of the
Property and at the same time to recognize the effects of change, and the need for various types
of uses, certain reasonable conditions governing the use of the Property for the protection of
the community that are not generally applicable to land similarly zoned are needed to cope
with the situation to which the Grantor's rezoning application gives rise; and
WHEREAS, the Grantors have voluntarily proffered, in writing, in advance of and
prior to the public hearing before the Grantee, as a part of the proposed amendment to the
Zoning Map, in addition to the regulations provided for the B-4 Zoning District and the
Shore Drive Overlay District by the existing overall Zoning Ordinance, the following
reasonable conditions related to the physical development, operation, and use of the
Property to be adopted as a part of said amendment to the Zoning Map relative and
applicable to the Property, which has a reasonable relation to the rezoning and the need for
which is generated by the rezoning.
NOW, THEREFORE, the Grantors, for themselves, their successors, personal
representatives, assigns, grantee, and other successors in title or interest, voluntarily and
without any requirement by or exaction from the Grantee or its governing body and without
any element of compulsion or quid pro quo for zoning, rezoning, site plan, building permit,
or subdivision approval, hereby make the following declaration of conditions and
restrictions which shall restrict and govern the physical development, operation, and use of
the Property and hereby covenants and agrees that this declaration shall constitute
covenants running with the Property, which shall be binding upon the Property and upon all
parties and persons claiming under or through the Grantors, their successors, personal
representatives, assigns, grantee, and other successors in interest or title:
1. When the Property is developed, in order to achieve a coordinated design and
development of this residential condominium in terms of limited vehicular access, parking,
and building layout, the exhibit entitled, "SITE IMPROVEMENT PLAN, MULTI-FAMILY
SITE PLAN EXHIBIT", dated June 3o, 2016, and prepared by WPL, which has been
exhibited to the Virginia Beach City Council and are on file with the Virginia Beach
Department of Planning ("Concept Plans") shall be substantially adhered to.
2
2. When the Property is developed, vehicular ingress and egress shall be via one
(i) entrance from Roanoke Avenue.
3. The architectural design of the buildings depicted on the Concept Plan will be
substantially as depicted on the two (2) exhibits entitled "BUILDING ELEVATIONS" Sheets
C-3.o and C-3.1, dated June 30, 2016, compiled by WPL ("Elevations") and on the four (4)
perspectives entitled "shore dr. & roanoke ave." (a) "corner elevation", (b) "south elevation",
(c) "east elevation" and (d) "rear elevation", dated 30 june 2016 ("Renderings"), which have
been exhibited to the Virginia Beach City Council and are on file with the Virginia Beach

4. When the Property is developed, there will be no more than eight (8)
residential condominium units as depicted on the Concept Plans.
5. Further conditions may be required by the Grantee during detailed Site Plan
review and administration of applicable City Codes by all cognizant City agencies and
departments to meet all applicable City Code requirements.
The above conditions, having been proffered by the Grantors and allowed and
accepted by the Grantee as part of the amendment to the Zoning Ordinance, shall continue
in full force and effect until a subsequent amendment changes the zoning of the Property
and specifically repeals such conditions. Such conditions shall continue despite a
subsequent amendment to the Zoning Ordinance even if the subsequent amendment is part
of a comprehensive implementation of a new or substantially revised Zoning Ordinance
until specifically repealed. The conditions, however, may be repealed, amended, or varied
by written instrument recorded in the Clerk's Office of the Circuit Court of the City of
Virginia Beach, Virginia, and executed by the record owner of the Property at the time of
recordation of such instrument, provided that said instrument is consented to by the
Grantee in writing as evidenced by a certified copy of an ordinance or a resolution adopted
by the governing body of the Grantee, after a public hearing before the Grantee which was
advertised pursuant to the provisions of Section 15.2-2204 of the Code of Virginia, 1950, as
amended. Said ordinance or resolution shall be recorded along with said instrument as
conclusive evidence of such consent, and if not so recorded, said instrument shall be void.
The Grantors covenant and agree that:
3
(i) The Zoning Administrator of the City of Virginia Beach, Virginia, shall be
vested with all necessary authority, on behalf of the governing body of the City of Virginia
Beach, Virginia, to administer and enforce the foregoing conditions and restrictions,
including the authority (a) to order, in writing, that any noncompliance with such
conditions be remedied; and (b) to bring legal action or suit to insure compliance with such
conditions, including mandatory or prohibitory injunction, abatement, damages, or other
appropriate action, suit, or proceeding;
(2) The failure to meet all conditions and restrictions shall constitute cause to
deny the issuance of any of the required building or occupancy permits as may be
appropriate;
(3) If aggrieved by any decision of the Zoning Administrator, made pursuant to
these provisions, the Grantors shall petition the governing body for the review thereof prior
to instituting proceedings in court; and
(4) The Zoning Map may show by an appropriate symbol on the map the
existence of conditions attaching to the zoning of the Property, and the ordinances and the
conditions may be made readily available and accessible for public inspection in the office of
the Zoning Administrator and in the Planning Department, and they shall be recorded in
the Clerk's Office of the Circuit Court of the City of Virginia Beach, Virginia, and indexed in
the name of the Grantors and the Grantee.
