CITY OF VIRGINIA BEACH
AGENDA ITEM I
ITEM: A Resolution Directing the City Manager to Consider Revisions to the City's
Flexible Workplace Policy
MEETING DATE: July 3, 2018
• Background: Many City employees have family needs and responsibilities that
include caring for loved ones, such as elderly parents, young children, children with
special needs, or an ailing spouse. Flexible work schedules can enable employees to
care for their loved ones while continuing to work, which can benefit both the employee
and the City. Flexible work schedules can include compressing work days, flexible daily
hours, or telecommuting.
The benefits of flexible work schedules for employees include enabling
employees to meet family needs, reduced commuting time and fuel costs and avoiding
traffic and the stresses of commuting during rush hours, enabling employees to work
when they accomplish the most, and potentially decreasing the need to pay for
childcare or care providers for family members with medical needs. The potential
benefits of flexible scheduling for the City as an employer include increased employee
morale, reduced employee turnover, reduced absenteeism and tardiness, an improved
ability to recruit outstanding employees, extending hours of customer service, and
fostering an image of the City as an employer of choice with family-friendly flexible work
schedules that enable employees to achieve a healthy and productive work-life balance.
Flexible work schedules may not be well-suited for some City positions, so management
needs the ability to determine whether to approve flexible work schedules.
In 1993, the City adopted a Flexible Workplace Policy, but that policy has not
been revised since its adoption. A review of the City's policy could take into
consideration the City's experiences under the policy, changes in industry standards
and technology (such as video conferencing and other abilities to work collaboratively
from remote locations as a result of advancements in high speed Internet), and studies
of the benefits and best practices in administering flexible work policies.
• Considerations: This resolution directs the City Manager to study best
practices in offering flexible work schedules, as well as the City's experiences under the
current flexible work policy, and to consider revisions to the policy.
• Public Information: Public information will be provided through the normal
Council agenda process.
• Attachment: Resolution

AGENDA ITEM 1
ITEM: An Ordinance to Amend Section 5-303 and Add Section 5-312 to the City Code
Pertaining to Pet Shops
MEETING DATE: July 3, 2018
■ Background: This ordinance will amend Section 5-303 of the City Code to impose
an annual license tax on pet shops operating within the city in the amount of $50. The
ordinance also adds Section 5-312 to the City Code, making it unlawful and a Class 3
misdemeanor for any person to operate a pet shop in the city without a valid license. It
also sets forth the process and conditions upon which such licenses shall be obtained
and granted, to include inspections of the pet shop's premises by the Police Department's
Animal Enforcement Unit and verification that the pet shops are operating in compliance
with all state and local laws regarding pet shops and the treatment of animals.
• Considerations: This ordinance will allow the City through its Police Department
to ensure that local pet shops are in compliance with all state and local laws and provide
more effective enforcement mechanisms for that purpose. All revenue derived from the
license tax shall be used to the administration and enforcement of Section 5-312. This
ordinance provides a right of appeal to the City Manager or designee in the event a license
is revoked or denied by the Police Department.
This ordinance was presented to the Animal Control Advisory Board at their meeting on
June 6. The Board provided positive feedback and agreed that this ordinance will address
an important issue in the community.
In order to provide pet shops with adequate to time comply with the terms of this new
ordinance, the ordinance's effective date is January 1, 2019.
• Public Information: Public information will be provided through the normal
Council agenda process.

AGENDA ITEM
ITEM: An Ordinance to Add Section 21-223 to the City Code Authorizing Schools to
Install and Operate a Video-Monitoring System to Record Violations of Drivers
Passing a Stopped School Bus
MEETING DATE: July 3, 2018
• Background: Virginia Code § 46.2-844 permits localities to authorize their local
school divisions to install and operate a video-monitoring system in or on school buses
operated by the division or to contract with a private vendor to do so on their behalf. The
purpose of the video-monitoring system would be to record violations of Virginia Code
Section 46.2-844(A) for passing a school bus when the bus's "stop" bar or signal is out.
The School Board of the City of Virginia Beach has expressed a desire to obtain a
video-monitoring system for this purpose. This ordinance would enable them to install
and operate a video-monitoring system or to contract with a private vendor to do so on
their behalf.
Violations of Virginia Code Section 46.2-844(A) discovered via the video-monitoring
system would be reviewed and enforced by the Police Department. The ordinance also
establishes that a driver found in violation of that section based upon the video-
monitoring evidence shall be liable for a civil penalty of $250.
• Considerations: This ordinance would require that information collected by any
video-monitoring system installed in or on school buses for this purpose would be
limited exclusively to that information that is necessary for the enforcement of violations
of passing a stopped school bus and that, notwithstanding any other provision of law,
the images, video, or other personal information collected would be used exclusively for
that purpose.
• Public Information: Public information will be provided through the normal
Council agenda process.

AGENDA ITEM 1
ITEM: OPTION 1: An Ordinance to Approve a Term Sheet, Titled "CPA Proposal 1," for
Ashville Park Drainage Improvements, to Authorize the City Manager to Execute
a Cost Participation Agreement and an Agreement of Sale and Dedication, and
to Direct Staff to Make Appropriate Posting to Allow Action by the Council in
August upon a Proffer Modification Request
OPTION 2: An Ordinance to Approve the Term Sheet, Titled "CPA Proposal 2,"
for Ashville Park Drainage Improvements, to Authorize the City Manager to
Execute a Cost Participation Agreement and an Agreement of Sale and
Dedication, and to Direct Staff to Make Appropriate Posting to Allow Action by
the Council in August upon a Proffer Modification Request
OPTION 3: An Ordinance to Approve the Term Sheet, Titled "CPA Proposal 3,"
for Ashville Park Drainage Improvements, to Authorize the City Manager to
Execute a Cost Participation Agreement and an Agreement of Sale and
Dedication, and to Direct Staff to Make Appropriate Posting to Allow Action by
the Council in August upon a Proffer Modification Request
MEETING DATE: July 3, 2018
• Background: Ashville Park is a subdivision in the southern portion of the City.
During intense rainfall events and windblown tidal events, Ashville Park experiences
recurrent flooding. This flooding has been most acutely felt during three specific events:
Tropical Storm Hermine, September 1 , 2016; Tropical Storm Julia, September 19, 2016;
and Hurricane Matthew, October 2016. During these events, roadway flooding made
neighborhood roads impassable. For several days, residents could neither enter nor
leave the neighborhood.
In the FY18 CIP, the City established CIP 7-047, "Ashville Park Drainage Improvements."
In the most recent CIP process, the description of 7-047 was modified to clearly provide
that the scope of the proposed improvements is what had been briefed to the City Council
as Phase I. Phase I should provide immediate, near-term flooding relief to the 299
families in the existing Villages A and B. The design of Phase I would allow the Developer
to proceed with a proposed Village C, but it does not include all of the improvements
necessary for the proposed Villages D and E.
The work required for Phase I is estimated to cost $11 ,122,796, based upon the design
and estimating work of the Department of Public Works. The City has undertaken
negotiations with the developer of Ashville Park to develop a cost share for the proposed
improvements. As a result of those negotiations, the City and the developer agreed to
apportion the costs based upon the units in Villages A and B (72% of the total units) and
the units in Village C (28% of the total units if the developer's tally includes 116 units).
Additionally, the City has agreed to purchase a 5.49 acre BMP 10A for an agreed-upon
cost of $363,500. The City believes there is value to acquiring this BMP in the form of
water quality credits estimated to be worth $2,144,868. This cost share agreement forms
the basis of what is referred to as Cost Participation Agreement Proposal 1.
After Council's deferral to July 3rd, the Staff undertook additional discussion with the
developer, and those discussions have resulted in receiving two additional cost
participation alternatives from the developer, CPA Proposal 2 and CPA Proposal 3. Both
Proposal 2 and Proposal 3 eliminate the developer's cost share portion for the
construction of Phase I improvements. The Council's acceptance of Proposal 2 or
Proposal 3 is accompanied with the developer's voluntary offering of modifications to its
proffers. Proposal 2's modification to proffers retains the existing approved density in
Village C, 98 units, while reducing the total approved units in Ashville Park from 4941 to
481. Proposal 3's modification will increase the density in Village C to 116 units while
removing all units from Village D; thereby Proposal 3 reduces the total approved units
from 4941 to 455.
The deal terms for Cost Participation Agreement Proposal 2 are as follows: The City will
be financially responsible for all of the $11 .1 million in work, and the City will benefit from
90% of any cost savings resulting from favorable bids. The developer will convey to the
City the interests in real property necessary to complete the work, and the City will take
title to the 5.49 acre BMP 10A, which will allow it to acquire the water quality credits
estimated to be worth $2,144,868.
The deal terms for Cost Participation Agreement Proposal 3 are as follows: The City will
be financially responsible for all of the $11.1 million in work, and the City will benefit from
90% of any cost savings resulting from favorable bids. The developer will convey to the
City the interests in real property necessary to complete the work, and the City will take
title to the 5.49 acre BMP 10A, which will allow it to acquire the water quality credits
estimated to be worth $2,144,868.
■ Considerations: Each of the three options include three related items. First is a
cost participation agreement. Second is an Agreement of Sale and Dedication. Third
relates to the modification of proffers in the separate zoning item.
For the construction of the storm water improvements, the City Manager would be
authorized to execute a Cost Participation Agreement or CPA with the Developer. The
CPA will allow the commencement of construction for the various items included in the
scope for Phase I. Additionally, the City Manager would be authorized to execute an
Agreement of Sale and Dedication. This Agreement will allow the acquisition of
easements and property interests required for the City to complete the work that is the
City's responsibility, which also sets forth the terms for closing on the acquisition of BMP
10A.
It is anticipated that the zoning item will be deferred to allow the developer to present to
the City the appropriate voluntary proffers consistent with the cost participation option
chosen by City Council. The City Staff would be directed to ensure appropriate posting of
1 Although 499 lots were approved, 169 of those approved lots were in Village B, but only 164 were built.
The practical effect of the build-out of Village B is that the maximum number of buildable lots under the
approved plan for Ashville Park is 494.
the proffers made by the developer to allow the Council to act at its first voting meeting in
August.

Council agenda process. This item was previously on the Agenda for the June 25, 2018
Formal Session wherein the Council received public comments.

AGENDA ITEM
ITEM: An Ordinance to Appropriate $622,543 to the Clerk of the Circuit Court's FY
2018-19 Operating Budget for Technology Related Expenses
MEETING DATE: July 3, 2018
• Background: The Code of Virginia (§ 17.1-279) establishes a $5 Technology
Trust Fund Fee imposed on instruments recorded in the deed book. Four dollars of
every $5 fee accumulates in a Technology Trust Fund to implement automation plans to
modernize land records and update other office automation and information technology
equipment. In the past, this money was awarded to the Clerk's Office through their State
budget, so the City was not responsible for appropriating this funding. The State
Compensation Board now requires the City to appropriate the funding before it can be
used. The Clerk's Office is requesting an appropriation of $622,543 from the fund
balance of the Technology Trust Fund.
This funding will support their vendor for annual software maintenance for Granicus,
(Land Records system), CCMS (case management software), CIS (case imaging
software), and VDS (video docketing software) with the Supreme Court of Virginia with
additional hardware and servers as needed.
• Considerations: This appropriation will not require any additional funding from
the City.

• Recommendations: Adopt the attached ordinance.

AGENDA ITEM
ITEM: HOFD ASHVILLE PARK, LLC (Applicant & Owner), Modification of Proffers
of a Conditional Rezoning (originally approved on 2/24/2004, modified on
5/10/2005 & 2/14/2012). Property is located on the north and south sides of
Ashville Park Boulevard (GPINs 2413473302, 2413476457, 2413558602).
COUNCIL DISTRICT — PRINCESS ANNE.
MEETING DATE: July 3, 2017
• Background:
The City Council deferred this request at the June 19, 2018 public hearing following
public comment. The original Conditional Change of Zoning establishing the PD-
H2 Planned Unit Development District(R-30 & P-1)for Ashville Park was approved
by the City Council on February 24, 2004. A second Conditional Change of Zoning
followed in 2005, and then a Modification of Proffers in 2012. On April 21 , 2015,
the City Council deferred the application of HOFD Ashville Park, LLC to May 19,
2015, and subsequently deferred the request indefinitely. Attached is a table that
depicts the acreage and unit counts for each applicant that has been submitted for
the Ashville neighborhood.
The applicant is now requesting a Modification of Proffers for the purpose of
revising the layouts of the three remaining villages, Villages C, D and E, which
have not yet been subdivided. The principal reasons for the changes to the layouts
include reducing the size of the development's footprint, shifting lots to higher and
better drained soils, avoiding wetlands that have emerged as a result of
uncompleted site grading by the previous developer, providing lot configurations
that reflect the applicant's development and design principles, as well as existing
housing market trends, and providing opportunities to increase the stormwater
capacity of the stormwater management ponds. With the proposed modifications,
the depicted open space areas will accommodate larger stormwater management
ponds. City Staff have been working with the applicant for three years to study
and identify how best to resolve significant drainage issues within the
neighborhood that the applicant inherited when the property was purchased. This
request has been coupled with a proposal that the City of Virginia Beach and the
applicant enter into a cost participation agreement for constructing the Phase I
public stormwater drainage improvements throughout Ashville Park. It should be
noted that construction plans for future Villages D and E will not be approved until
Phase II drainage improvements are identified and funded, improvements which
are not part of this cost participation agreement.

• Considerations:
The table below provides a list of the three remaining villages, accompanied by the
number of units and the minimum lot sizes proposed for each, under the currently
approved plan and the proposed plan.
Currently Proffered Plan Proposed Modification
Number Lot Width Minimum Number Lot Width Minimum
Units In Feet Lot Size Units In Feet Lot Size
Village C98 100 20,000 SF 116 45 at 120 45 at 18,000 SF
71 at 90 71 at 13,500 SF
Village D 41 100 12,000 SF 44 80 12,000 SF
Village E 56 100 12,000 SF 40 100 20,000 SF
Total Units 195 200
As the table above indicates, the number of units within the three villages will
increase by five; however, the five units are not additional units beyond the
maximum 499 units previously approved and proffered. The five units are being
shifted from Village B (Ranier Village'), where each unit would have been on lots
of at least 7,200 square feet, to Village C, where each lot will be at least 13,500
square feet in size. The five units being shifted to Village C will be located such
that the number of dwelling units within the 65 to 70 dB DNL AICUZ (Sub-Area 2)
remains the same as the number under the currently proffered plan.
The revised layout of the villages reduces the overall development footprint by
approximately 10 acres, which results in a corresponding increase in the number
of acres of open space. Accordingly, 54.3 percent of the site will remain as open
space. Further details pertaining to the proposal, as well as Staff's evaluation of
the request, are provided in the attached staff report. Also attached is a table that
summarizes the acreage and unit counts related to each application submitted for
Ashville Park from the first submittal in 2003 to this request that is scheduled to be
heard again by the City Council on July 3, 2018.
At the Planning Commission public hearing there were two speakers in support of
the request, both residents of Ashville Park, and three speakers in opposition, all
of whom live in the adjacent Heritage Park neighborhood. The opposition noted
concerns related to smaller lot sizes, decreased home sizes, and changes to the
layout.

■ Recommendations:
The Planning Commission by a recorded vote of 10-0, voted to recommend
approval of this request to the City Council as proffered. The recommendation,
however, included direction to the applicant to make two revisions to the "Ashville
Park Development Manual" to address issues raised by residents of Ashville Park.
The applicant has made those revisions, and they were submitted to the Planning
Department and the City Attorney's Office prior to the deadline established by the
Zoning Ordinance for revisions to Conditional Zoning Agreements. The changes
are specific to the "Architectural Standards" of the Manual, and consist of the
following:
Page 11, Item Number 1 — addition of a new subsection (e)
All homes in Village C and E shall not have front loaded garages. In Village
D, no less than 20% of the homes shall have an interior facing or outward
facing side loading garage.
Page 14, Item Number 17
All fencing in Villages C, D and E shall be metal, open picket style and shall
not exceed 5 feet in height. Solid privacy fencing of yard areas in Villages C,
D and E is precluded.
A full description of the modifications to the proffers being requested by the
applicant is provided on pages 5 through 11 of the attached Staff report.

That original rezoning was followed by a second rezoning in 2005, which was subsequently modified in
2011. Each of the zoning changes or modifications to proffers since the original 2004 rezoning have been
directly tied to changes in the ownership of the property as well as the changes in the real estate market
during the past ten years.
The original owner conveyed the property to Sandler at Ashville Park, LLC in late-2004, and in 2005,
Sandler at Ashville Park requested a Conditional Change of Zoning that kept the zoning district the same,
but replaced the 2004 proffers with new proffers that tied the development to a plan and details indicative
of the new owner's development practices and design preferences. One of the most significant changes
was the shift of the 56 age-restricted dwelling units that were in Village E to Village B, resulting in a total
of 160 age-restricted units. Nine additional units were added to Village B at the same time, resulting in
169 age-restricted units (see '2005 Plan' on following page).
After that rezoning, site construction plans were approved in mid-2006. The first 28 lots (in Village A)
were sold to builders in 2007, which provided the foundation for Ashville Park being selected as the site of
the Tidewater Builders Association's 2008 Homearama. Simultaneous to this development activity, the
national financial and real estate markets were weakening, eventually leading to the 'Great Recession' of
2008-09. The effect on the development of Ashville Park was significant. There was limited development
activity during 2009 and 2010, and the property owner / developer, like many real estate developers
across the nation, eventually defaulted on the loans tied to the property.

In 2010, Wells Fargo Bank foreclosed on the property. After foreclosure, ATC Realty Sixteen (a subsidiary
of Wells Fargo) worked with the City of Virginia Beach to address a number of issues related to the
condition of the property as well as uncompleted infrastructure improvements. Additionally, in an attempt
to stimulate development activity, ATC Realty Sixteen / Ashville Park LLC submitted a request to modify
the proffers of the 2005 rezoning. In particular, the requested
modification was to remove the age-restriction for the 169
dwelling units located in Village B ('Ranier Village') and to
replace the 'Active Adult Center' proposed for the center of _
Village B with a 'Village Green.' The rationale for the requested �--•-
modification was based on the changes in the real estate 10- _ iLt
market and economy resulting from the Great Recession. '• F
Specifically, the applicant cited the significant reduction in
demand for 'active adult communities' with single-family
dwellings on fee-simple lots, as well as an increasing demand
for smaller single-family lots and a corresponding demand for
single-family dwellings with less floor area than prior to the „ ..
Recession. City Council approved ATC Realty Sixteen's request
on February 14, 2012.
Details of Proposal
On February 16, 2012, ownership of the property was
transferred to the current owner, HOFD Ashville Park, LLC,
which is a subsidiary of HomeFed Corporation. HomeFed was the successful bidder for the property
when it was auctioned by Wells Fargo after foreclosure. HomeFed / HOFD Ashville Park, LLC, like the
previous owners of the property, has certain development practices and design preferences. Based on
HOFD ASHVILLE PARK, L.L.C.
Agenda Item 3
Page 3
those practices and preferences, the current housing market, and new site constraints resulting from past
construction activity, HOFD Ashville Park is now requesting a Modification of the Proffers approved in
2005 and as modified by the 2011 proffers(approved in February 2012).
The applicant's principal reason for requesting the modifications to the existing proffers is a need to
change the layout of the three 'villages' that have not yet been developed to first, avoid wetlands created
as a result of improper site grading by the previous developer, and second, provide for lot configurations
that reflect the applicant's development and design principles. The table below provides a list of the three
remaining villages, accompanied by the number of units and the minimum lot sizes proposed for each,
under the currently approved plan and the proposed plan.
Currently Proffered Plan Proposed Modification
Number Lot Width Lot Size Number Lot Width Lot Size
Units Units
Village 'C' 98 100' 20,000 SF 116 45 at 120' 45 lots at 18,000 SF
71 at 90' 71 lots at 13,500 SF
Village 'D' 41 100' 12,000 SF 44 80' 12,000 SF
Village 'E' 56 100' 12,000 SF 40 100' 20,000 SF
Total Units 195 200
• As the table above indicates, the number of units within the three villages will increase by five;
however, the five units are not additional units beyond the maximum 499 units already allowed.
The five units are being shifted from Village B (Ranier Village'), where each would be on a 7,200
SF lot, to Village 'C,' where each will be on a 13,500 SF lot. The five units being shifted to
Village 'C' will be located within the village layout such that the number of dwelling units within the
65 to 70 dB DNL AICUZ (Sub-Area 2) remains the same as the number under the currently
proffered plan.
• The increase of 18 units in Village 'C' is based on the village's location in the geographic center of
the community, with close proximity to the Community Center and active recreational amenity
area.
• The number of lots proposed for Village 'E,' at the eastern end of Ashville Park, is being reduced
by 16 while at the same time the minimum lot area is being increased from 12,000 SF to 20,000
SF. These changes are driven by the location of Village 'E' at the eastern end of Ashville Park,
which is the closest portion of the site to Back Bay. The fewer number of units combined with the
larger lot sizes decreases the area of impervious surface at this end of the development site.
• The revised layout of the villages reduces the overall development footprint by approximately 11
acres, which corresponds to an increase in approximately 11 acres of open space.

Details—Modification of Proffers
The applicant is requesting modification of proffers contained in both the 2005 and 2011 Conditional
Zoning Agreements(CZAs). The table below lists the proffer requested for modification, the requested
modified proffer text, and then, staff comments regarding the modification. There are references
HOFD ASHVILLE PARK, L.L.C.
Agenda Item 3

throughout the modified proffers to a 'Manual,' which is the Master Plan document for Ashville Park. The
project has always been guided by such a Manual. One of the most significant changes to the Manual is
the addition of an extensive 'Architectural Standards' section on pages 11 through 16, which is, in effect,
a "Pattern Book" for new dwellings in the community. This is significant, as the development has never
had such architectural guidance. Previous guidance regarding the housing design consisted only of
Proffer 27, which states that"All residential dwellings constructed on the Property shall have visible
exterior surfaces, excluding roofs, porches, windows, doors, trim and soffits, consisting entirely of all or
any combination of brick, stone, hardy plank, stucco, cedar shake or similar quality materials."
PROFFER 1 (2005): REQUESTED MODIFICATION:

Staff Comments: The requested modification results in the replacement of the 2005 Master Plan
document with the Master Plan document entitled "Ashville Park,"which was submitted with the current
application. The new proffer also clarifies that the Master Plan primarily applies to the reconfigured
Villages C, D, and E.
PROFFER 3 (2005): REQUESTED MODIFICATION:
A second entranceway to the Property shall be A second entrance to the Property shall be located

Moreover, the new design is more consistent with what was constructed at the Princess Anne Road
entrance than what is the design provided in the 2005 Master Plan document.

Staff Comments: The requested modification results in the substitution of the 2005 roadway cross-
sections with new cross-sections that are based on past development review observations as well as
`lessons learned'through use of the 2005 roadway sections. The new cross-sections also provide a
section for trails, which was not part of the 2005 document.
PROFFER 12 (2005): REQUESTED MODIFICATION:

shall be as set forth in the Master Plan. as set forth in the Master Plan.
Staff Comments: The requested modification establishes the new number of dwelling units for each
village resulting from the reconfiguration of the villages. The reconfiguration of the villages with regard to
size and location is due to two primary factors: (1) the need to move development from previously
proffered locations due to the creation of wetlands (as defined by the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers) on
the site as a result of changes in drainage patterns under the original developer that were exacerbated by
long period of inactivity on the site; and(2) HOFD's development practices and design preferences, as
well as HOFD's housing market research at both the local and national level. Lot sizes in Villages C, D,
and E will now be between 13,500 square feet and 20,000 square feet, whereas the lot sizes under the
existing proffers are between 12,000 square feet and 20,000 square feet. The reconfiguration also results

Staff Comments: Staff considers this a `housekeeping'item since the new proffer reflects changes that
have been recently implemented in Village A at the request of and approved by the homeowners in that
Village. The concept of`Pocket Parks'has been integrated into the `Linear Park'concept.
PROFFER 19 (2011): REQUESTED MODIFICATION:

multipurpose court, and parking lot(35 spaces).
The Community Amenities shall be constructed and
a certificate of occupancy issued for the clubhouse

occupancy for any residential dwelling in Village C,
DorE.
Staff Comments: The effect of Proffer 18 of the 2011 modification to the original 2005 proffers (referenced
above in Proffer 19) was to reduce the number of originally proffered `Recreational Activity Areas'to one,
which will be located between Villages A and C. The 2011 Modification of Proffers application primarily
focused on site layout revisions and elimination of the age-restriction for Village B. The originally
proposed indoor facility for Village B was replaced with a Village Green. Proffer 19 of the 2011
modification (above) tied the general quality, design, and character of the `Recreational Activity Area'to
the graphics in Section VI of the `Ashville Park Manual.' With that as background, the currently proposed
modification provides more specificity to the components that will part of the Recreational Activity Area,
and requires that the clubhouse be constructed and have a Certificate of Occupancy prior to the issuance
of occupancy permits for any dwelling in Villages C, D, or E.
PROFFER 21 (2005): REQUESTED MODIFICATION:

Staff Comments: The applicant proffered(Number 21, above) with the original Conditional Change of
Zoning that none of the non-tidal wetlands identified by the Army Corps of Engineers as being under its
jurisdiction would be disturbed during development of the site. The currently requested modification of
that proffer reaffirms the content of the proffer, as well as noting that any impacts to areas of wetlands
that have been subsequently identified by the Corps as being under its jurisdiction shall be allowed only
as permitted by the Virginia Department of Environmental Quality and the Corps.

proposed Manual. This trail was an important component of the original rezoning, as it connects to
Heritage Park to the north and is intended to continue south of Ashville Park, consistent with the overall
vision for the Transition Area.

Staff Comments: This requested modification to the 2005 proffers derives from the development practices
and design preferences of the new owner of the property, similar to when the previous owner deleted all
of the proffers from the 2003 rezoning and replaced those proffers consistent with its development
practices and design preferences. Based on those practices and preferences as well as the changes in
housing market since the market crash of 2008-09, the proposed proffer provides dimensional
requirements for Villages C, D, and E, resulting in a variety of dwelling types.

NATURAL RESOURCE AND Portions of the site are open fields and other areas are wooded.
CULTURAL FEATURES: The site drains to the north toward Scopus Marsh or eastward to
Ashville Bridge Creek and Back Bay. There are areas of Corps-
defined non-tidal wetlands.
From a cultural perspective, it appears that the City's most
infamous character, the "Witch of Pungo" Grace Sherwood, owned
a portion of the site during her lifetime. According to City records,
John White, Grace's father, received a land patent of 195 acres at
Ashville Creek at the east end of Muddy Creek in 1674. At his
death, the property conveyed to James and Grace Sherwood.
COMPREHENSIVE PLAN (NOTE: This application was submitted prior to the latest amendments to the
Comprehensive Plan pertaining to the Transition Area policies and design guidelines. The application
has, therefore, been reviewed under the prior policies and design guidelines). The Comprehensive Plan
designates the subject property as being within the Transition Area. The Transition Area serves as a
unique land use buffer for the low density Rural Area from the more densely developed Suburban Area
by instilling a hybrid of the two types of development patterns that promotes open space and a low per
acre density. Another unique feature of the Transition Area, near its eastern edge along New Bridge
Road, are the headwaters of Back Bay; a natural feature that helps define the Transition Area by
providing an unparalleled amenity for both residents and visitors. As a whole, this area is characterized
by many high quality residential neighborhoods with significant, exceptional open space. Discretionary
development proposals within the Transition Area should be well-planned, with clustered or massed
residential development of densities averaging no more than one dwelling unit per acre, should adhere to
the planning and design principles cited in the Transition Area Design Guidelines, and should conform to
the provisions of the Oceana Land Use Conformity program and AICUZ provisions. Development
proposals should strive to achieve the goal of attaining 50 percent open space, including berms, trees,
buffers, and trails, to create safe, accessible, and attractive roadway corridors and internal green space
that provide attractive vistas and recreation areas as well as protect natural resources. Uses should be
clustered in a creative manner to minimize impervious surfaces, protect open spaces, and optimize site
amenity and design opportunities. Site plans should be designed to respect and display valued natural
resources and incorporate a well-planned system of multipurpose trails, greenways, and other linkages
that are instrumental in implementing the strategic goals of the adopted Outdoors Plan. It should be
demonstrated that the capacity of roadways and other infrastructure can adequately support the
increased demand. All projects should to employ energy efficient systems, preferably equivalent to or
higher than the standards set for the Leadership in Energy and Environmental Design (LEEDTM)
'Certified' rating, (p. 4-1 to 4-4, 4-19, Policy Document prior to amendments of February 3, 2015).

IMPACT ON CITY SERVICES
MASTER TRANSPORTATION PLAN (MTP) /CAPITAL IMPROVEMENT PROGRAM (CIP): In the
vicinity of this site, Princess Anne Road is a two-lane minor suburban arterial with a variable (80 feet to
100 feet) right-of-way width. For this portion of Princess Anne Road, the City's Master Transportation Plan
HOFD ASHVILLE PARK, L.L.C.
Agenda Item 3
Page 12
recommends an ultimate 135-foot wide right-of-way within a four-lane parkway typical section. There is an
active CIP Project, Princess Anne Road Phase VII-A(CIP 2.033.0), for this section of Princess Anne
Road. This project is for the construction of safety improvements on Princess Anne Road from the
Sandbridge Road/ Upton Drive intersection to Indian River Road, including, but not limited to, shoulder
widening, additional turn lanes, underground utility relocation, and drainage improvements.
Flanagans Lane is a two-lane local /collector street.

• The approved original TIS analysis found that a traffic signal for the intersection of Ashville Park
Boulevard and Princess Anne Road would be required at approximately 70% build-out of the entire
Ashville Park development. Traffic Engineering will continue to monitor the intersection, and will
require the traffic signal to be installed when it becomes warranted, regardless of the previously
approved projections.
• Traffic Engineering reserves the right to make detailed comments as necessary upon submittal of
construction plans.

EVALUATION AND RECOMMENDATION
The applicant is requesting a Modification of Proffers (from the 2005 rezoning and its 2011 modification).
The applicant's principal reason for requesting the modifications to the existing proffers is a need to
change the layout of the three `villages' that have not yet been developed to first, avoid wetlands created
as a result of improper site grading by the previous developer, and second, provide for lot configurations
that reflect the applicant's development and design principles.
The residential density of Ashville Park is currently 1.10 dwelling units per acre based on 499 units on
452.8 acres. This density level was approved in 2005, with density above one unit per acre provided as a
result of age-restriction for 169 of the units (at that time, there was some evidence that such units had
nearly half of the impact on public services as units that were not age-restricted). The age-restriction was
deleted in 2011 with City Council's approval of a Modification of Proffers in 2011 pertaining to Village B.
The currently requested Modification of Proffers will not result in a change to the density.
Staff evaluated the proposed development for consistency with the Comprehensive Plan policies,
including use of the Transition Area Matrix (pre-2015 amendments), which assesses the proposed
development's compliance with the three important components of the Transition Area Design Guidelines:
Natural Resources, Amenities, and Design. Since the Transition Area Matrix was purposely designed
such that the result of the calculation cannot exceed 1 dwelling unit per acre, it is not unexpected that the
result of calculation for this development indicates that the maximum number of units is 540 (since the
total site area is 540 acres). It must be noted, however, that the number of units approved for Ashville
Park has always been in excess of the one dwelling unit per acre policy, and even with the most recent
modifications to the proffers approved by the City Council in 2011, the density remained over one
dwelling unit per acre. Staff finds that there is no rationale for reducing the density by 0.10, as the new
proffers result in a plan that provides a variety of housing types not previously available in this community,
which is consistent with the Comprehensive Plan's Housing Policies, while, at the same time, providing a
greater area of the types of open space and recreational amenities that are recommended by the
Transition Area Design Guidelines.
Based on Ashville Park's history during the past decade, the applicant's current request for a modification
of proffers is a response to a necessity for the Master Plan to evolve. Such an evolution is necessary in
order to continue developing the community to meet the original intent of Ashville Park as a high-quality,
vibrant, and unique community, providing active and passive recreational opportunities accompanied by
expanses of open space and scenic vistas.
Staff recommends approval of the request for a Modification of the Proffers of the 2005 Change of Zoning
and the 2011 Modification. The complete proffers are provided below.

March 11, 2015
REGULAR
Jeff Hodgson: Please call the next item.
Phil Russo: The next application is Item 3. It is an application of HOFD Ashville Park, L.L.C. for a
Modification of Proffers of a Conditional Change of Zoning, approved May 10, 2005, and as modified on
February 14, 2012, on property located on the north and south side of Ashville Park Boulevard, District
7, Princess Anne.
Jeff Hodgson: Welcome Mr. Bourdon.
Eddie Bourdon: Thank you Mr. Chairman. For the record, I'm Eddie Bourdon, a Virginia Beach attorney
representing the applicant. We appreciate that this was on the Consent Agenda item, and I will try to be
brief. Dr. White did an excellent job this morning describing what we were proposing.
Eddie Bourdon: This just involves what is a matter of a house keeping items and the remaining three
villages. Village C is about to begin development in the center of Ashville Park, as is the public amenity
for the residents. Clubhouse, pool, courts, etc., that are all being put in place here. As Dr. White
explained this morning, between the economic situation that befell the previous developer, and leaving
the property improperly graded and drainage locked up, wetlands have developed, or did by the time
HomeFed acquired the property developed in this area. Frankly, it was part of the farm that my family
owned for years that was put into this development initially, and it wasn't wet back in those days. It was
farmed land. But inl order to avoid impacting the wetlands, that's the principal reason why these
modifications are before you. Also, the reason is to add a lot of tremendous architectural requirements
that were not in the previous plan, which most of the members of the Commission heard this on a prior
application. That application is no longer in play. It has been withdrawn; so,this is just simply
housekeeping on these villages. The lots that are on the outside of this village (Village C) are 120-foot
wide, 18,000 square foot lots. The number of lots that are inside the AICUZ area is not expanded one bit.
We have moved five lots that were 7,200 square feet from Village B to put more open space in Village D
over into Village C, again in close proximately to all of the amenities. We got 250 feet of open space on
our property before you get to the lots that are in Heritage Park that back up to this property without
any open space intervening into Heritage Park. The amenity package will all be in place and occupied
before any of the residents in Village C are permitted to be occupied before Certificates of Occupancy
can be issued,which is a big gain for the current residents. Pretty much,those are the big high points in
this housekeeping. I did want to mention that, again, we have had excellent attendance at meetings
with the homeowners in Ashville Park, and they did ask us for two additional proffers, which you all
received this morning, which we will insert in the Manual. This is the Manual that is proffered with this
application,which is again, pretty much unprecedented. It is one of the nicest we've seen,and this is
something HomeFed has done, which we think is a big plus, because there is not really a lot of"meat" in
Item#2
HOFD Ashville Park, L.L.C.
Page 2
some of the architectural proffers in the original plans for Ashville Park. The two involved here are
simply dealing with precluding front loading garages in Village C and E, and a limited number of side
loading garages in Village D. Village D has 80 foot wide lots; so,there will be some front-loading garages
there, and all fencing in these last three villages will be the open-style fencing that the Comprehensive
Plan calls for now, was recently put into place. With that, I understand there is some opposition from
Heritage Park, and I will simply note that the lots in Heritage Park are R-20 Open Space Promotion. The
lot size minimum is 90 feet wide and 12,000 square foot in area. The average lot size is 100-foot wide
and the average square footage in Heritage Park is between 13,000 and 13,500, and again, the lots that
abut us in Heritage Park, without any open space intervening,those lots are 250-feet away, and are 120-
foot wide lots that are 18,000 square feet, bigger than any of the lots that adjoin us in Heritage Park.
Heritage Park has 45 percent of open space, 276 units, 45 percent open space, 75 acres of open space.
Ashville Park with will add 11 acres of open space. I apologize, I forgot to mention that, and that brings
the open space in Ashville Park to 247 acres. And that is 247 acres that the homeowners have to
maintain, and some of these new village configurations also actually help save the cost of maintaining all
the open space in Ashville Park as well. I'll be happy to answer any questions.
Jeff Hodgson: Does anyone have any questions for Mr. Bourdon? Thank you sir.
Eddie Bourdon: Thank you.
Phil Russo: Our next speaker is Rob Steele.
Rob Steele: Good afternoon, my name is Rob Steele. I'm a resident of Ashville Park, and today I'm just
here to offer full support for HomeFed, and the development in general. HomeFed has spent a lot of
time in the last year, 18 months. I've become friends with the residents, and most recently we've had
face-to-face conversations with the developers to come to compromises. And this is the best possible
application that can suit not only the neighborhood but the Transition area as well.
Jeff Hodgson: Does anyone have any questions for Mr. Steele? Yes Karen?
Karen Kwasny: Mr. Steele, do you feel as though the residents in Ashville Park by and large find this to
be amenable to design?
Rob Steele: Yes, based on the last couple of meetings and a lot of email correspondence we've had with
majority of members, residents of Ashville Park, everyone seems to be amenable to this application.
Jeff Hodgson: Are there any other questions?Thank you. Mr. Steele,thanks for coming down,
Rob Steele: Sure.
Phil Russo: Our next speaker is Brooks Sinnen.
Brooks Sinnen: Good afternoon. My name is Brooks Sinnen. Thank you guys for hearing us today, and I
will just piggyback on what Mr. Steele had to say. We are in full support of application number two with
HomeFed. I will leave it at that.

Jeff Hodgson: Thank you. Are there any questions for Mr. Sinnen? Also, thank you for coming down
today.
Phil Russo: Our first speaker in opposition is Jessica Lindsey.
Phil Russo: Hello.
Jessica Lindsey: Hello. Good morning, my name is Jessica Lindsey and I am a resident of Heritage Park. I
am here in opposition. Some of us have come, I think it was about a year ago when this first came to
pass, and worked very well, I think, with Ashville Park in opposing just based on their original transition
plan, which obviously, I'm sure all of you guys have seen. And that original transition plan, I've been in
my house almost nine years, and that transition plan was something that we bought into long before
Ashville was built. Heritage Park had started and we went in to build a home for our family, not just a
house, a home. We want to live there for decades to come. So having said that, seeing that transition
plan was very attractive to my husband and myself, much of the neighbors in Heritage Park, thinking this
wonderful neighborhood and what a better plan. The Ashville Park plan, the original plan, was fantastic,
and Ashville Park,the residents who built,there obviously agree. A lot of things have been approved
and changed over time, and that is understandable to a point. I think from a Heritage Park perspective,
really it has gotten to a point where,you know, as a resident, versus a builder, I know builders are
obviously doing their jobs,and they are trying to build additional homes, and to make money, and
different things like that. I absolutely understand that. From a resident standpoint, and living there for,
you know, close to a decade, wanting things to stay the way they were originally,you know, proposed,
there have been a lot of changes that, kind of affecting Ashville Park as well, not Heritage Park of course,
but,from how we share the land there. And so our concern is that the increases, and I know this
morning, and I was in the preplanning meeting, it was mentioned that it wasn't tremendous change but
as a resident it really is tremendous because the lot sizes and when you go from 20,000 square feet to
13,000,you know, I know Mr. Bourdon said that, you know, different numbers about Heritage Park, but
we were there already. And so people that were buying into Ashville Park already kind of knew what
those numbers looked like. For those numbers behind us to change is kind of very different from what
we had bought into. And so Village C is what affects our neighborhood there. I know some other folks
are going to talk from Heritage Park, and there are a few people actually wanted to be here but could
not, and I know they would be saying the same thing, but I think there is definitely some opposition
there, and we would like to and before this goes through and gets approved, possibly have it deferred so
we can all talk as a group and really make the Transition Area what it really should be and what is was
planning to be long ago.
Jeff Hodgson: Thank you.
Jessica Lindsey: Are there any questions for me?
Jeff Hodgeson: Are there any question for Ms. Lindsey. Thank you very much.
Jessica Lindsey: Okay. I appreciate your time.
Phil Russo: Our next speaker is Steven Stepnowski.
Item#2
HOFD Ashville Park, L.L.C.
Page 4
Steven Stepnowski: Hi.
Jeff Hodgson: Good afternoon.
Steven Stepnowski: Good afternoon. My name is Steven Stepnowski. I am a lifetime resident of the
Hampton Roads area. I am a 30-year resident of Virginia Beach, and a nine year resident of Heritage
Park. When I decided to move from the Shadowlawn out to Heritage Park, I looked at the plan that this
Commission had put together for Heritage Park and Ashville Park. I based an investment of buying a
piece of property on that plan. That plan for Ashville Park showed larger homes, at least comparable or
larger than what is in Heritage Park, my neighborhood. A year ago,there were amendments and proffer
changes that were proposed, and have been, I guess, side-barred up until this point. Looking at the
changes, in the reduction of lot size, greatly affects the look of the neighborhood. I sat in this morning
on the meeting to see what changes were made there, and what you all had kind of looked at. As our
average lot size is what we were told just a little while ago were smaller. The average lot size is smaller.
Our neighborhood is based on larger sizes and has a lot of open area. This new plan does not carry that
in Ashville Park. Coming down here I would just like to voice my concerns about that. I know that due
to some of the financial problems that the earlier developer had, maintenance wasn't done. Wetland
areas were created because of that, due to the lack of work being done in the area and maintenance.
Now that this area for Village D is really, will be very costly,Village D has been changed and our lots or
Village C lots are now reduced. I heard Dr. White talking this morning there is not a really large change,
but the significant change that the lots will be 4,000 feet smaller, 71 lots 4,500 smaller. That means that
the homes are going to be closer together. The look of the neighborhood is going to change. Ten years
ago, when I decided to move, I looked at that. My house, I'm on Rein Lane, 1809 Rein Lane. I back up to
the west side of Village C. I look out my backyard, I see the woods and I expected to see homes
comparable to what I have or better. That is what the plan was. Now, I'm going to be out there looking
at 13,500 square foot lot with no green area between any of the homes. All the lots are backed up to
one another. There is one small piece of green area in the center of that. That really is not what I
bought into ten years ago, and not with this Planning Commission had planned. I hope you all consider
the fact that there is a plan in place right now with 20,000 square foot lots,just like Village A. Village A
sold very quickly in poor economic times. Please consider that in making this change.
Jeff Hodgson: Thank you very much. Are there any questions for Mr. Stepnowski? Thank you.
Phil Russo: Our next speaker is Rudy Bojo.
Jeff Hodgson: Good afternoon.
Rudy Bojo: Good afternoon Mr. Chairman. My name is Rudy Bojo. I am the resident of 7 1/2 years at
Heritage Park, and I am one of many homeowners who would be affected by the proposed changes to
the density of Ashville Park. We oppose this, number one, to protect our property values, and number
2, to stop the continual request to change Ashville Park that negatively affects Heritage Park residents.
We do not understand the need to change the current design, as my neighbor has spoken. No one is
disagreeing with the original 2005 plan, so why change it? We moved here for larger lots with ample
amount of open space, not for condensed housing with small yards and little open space. The proposed
Village C design is much denser than neighboring lots in Heritage Park and on Flanagan Lane, which has
far less usable open space. The average lot in Village C would be 25 percent smaller than the
Item #2
HOFD Ashville Park, L.L.C.
Page 5
neighboring lots in Heritage Park. Even smaller lots in Heritage Park open up to larger amounts to open
space. The smallest Heritage Park lot bordering Village C is 20,000 square feet. The proposed Village C
design stacks houses back to back as I said earlier, with little open space woven into the village. HOFD
claims that the proposed design increases open space by 2 1/2 percent and this is primarily due to the
newly created watershed. This depicts, appears to be, an increase in village density. We are told that
HOFD wants the changes in design to reduce impact on the watershed, move homes away from the
wildlife refuge, and move more of the neighborhood population closer to the amenity center. Village C
and the neighboring Heritage Park did should not shoulder the burden of past building mistakes and
design flaws. What is clear to us is that these proposed changes benefit HOFD but negatively impact
local residents. In closing, I firmly oppose these changes. Thank you for your time.
Jeff Hodgson: Are there any questions for Mr. Bojo? Thank you. You may be seated.
Rudy Bojo: Thank you.
Phil Russo: Mr. Chairman. That is all the speakers we have on this application.
Jeff Hodgson: Mr. Bourdon?
Eddie Bourdon: First of all, my client will be more than willing to go out and have a meeting between
now and City Council with the residents of Heritage Park. Let me just dispel things that have been said.
There is absolutely no increase in density within Ashville Park as a consequence of these changes that
are before you today. There is absolutely no decrease in any size of any homes to be built in Ashville
Park, nor the quality of any homes built at Ashville Park, and in fact, with the modifications that are
included in the Manual that you all have, and that your staff has evaluated, there is a guarantee of the
high quality of homes that will be built in these last three villages at Ashville Park that did not exist
previously. The changes,that I have stated, are primarily for environmental sensitivity reasons, not one
for disturbing non-tidal wetlands and to remove a number, 16 homes,from the eastern end of the
property closest to Back Bay and the more environmentally sensitive area. The building footprint does
not increase the impervious surface. The area does not increase with these changes whatsoever. And I
will repeat what I said before, Heritage Park has 75 acres of open space, 276 homes,45 percent of its
land is open space. The Ashville Park development has 247 acres of open space,three times the amount
of open space in and around all of the community. And there is absolutely nothing that is occurring here
that will have any negative values of anybody's home, be they in Ashville Park, or Heritage Park, or
anywhere else in the Transition Area. I'll be happy to answer any questions.
Jeff Hodgson: Are there any questions for Mr. Bourdon?
Karen Kwasny: Mr. Bourdon, can you rearticulate again why the lots are moved from Village E to Village
C, and the lots on Village E are enlarged?
Eddie Bourdon: Yes. Village E previously had 16 additional lots. They were 12,000 square foot lots, all of
them in Village E. We have shifted those lots from Village E to Village C because of infrastructure
concerns, environmental concerns, and economics. Just simply having people in close proximity to the
amenities that will be utilized throughout the life of this community. All that open space is enough for, I
don't know, a golf course, and at least the produces some cash flow. Yet, all of this open space has to be
Item#2
HOFD Ashville Park, L.L.C.
Page 6
maintained by the owners;so,while the original plan,which can't be developed the way it was for the
reasons I stated earlier, looks good on paper,the economic reality is that we have to have a vibrant
community, and this will help ensure that vibrant community which is that way now and is because of
HomeFed's coming in and picking up the pieces,so to speak. It is doing very well and will continue to do
well. But that is the reason to,one of the reasons that, and what was stated earlier about avoiding the
wetlands, is moving the development footprint from here. And this really did not expand the
development footprint to any great degree at all. It was just in the same footprint and there is no
reduction in the open space that is provided by Ashville Park to the adjacent properties on smaller lots
in Heritage Park,where there is no open space external to their lot.Their lot lines go right to the shared
boundary line of our property.
Karen Kwansy: So 16 lots were moved from Village E to Village C?
Eddie Bourdon: And five were moved from Village B at 7,200 square lots into Village C at 13,500
minimum square lots in Village C.
Karen Kwasny: Why were they moved from Village B?
Eddie Bourdon: One reason was to add more open space to Village B. Village B is a little, as everyone
who has been out there is a little bit more cramped or crowded, so hopefully that makes It better for
Village B to have more open space in Village B and to placed them in Village C and have the lots be
essentially twice as large.
Karen Kwasny: Okay. I have one more question. So, in terms of it meeting the Transition Area
Guidelines, can you articulate that for me?
Eddie Bourdon:We meet the Guidelines because we have more than 50 percent open space. We meet
the Guidelines because the houses are very expensive houses, and we have added the fencing that the
new Comprehensive Plan requires in terms of the open south fencing. So,there is certainly not anything
in the Ashville Park plan that is not going to be good with the Comprehensive Plan. In fact, it is a "poster
child"for what the Transition Area calls for, and this doesn't change that one bit. When we did,when I
was involved with Heritage Park, Heritage Park was the first one out of the gate, and the staff opposed
it, because it didn't' have 50 percent open space. The open space,they got over that hurdle, because of
Equi-Kids, but Equi-Kids is a great amenity. It is a fantastic amenity. But it pays for itself. It is not a part
of Heritage Park. It is something that everybody gets a view of. It is a pretty facility, but it is not a part of
Heritage Park. Ashville Park doesn't have that ability to have somebody else pay for the open space, and
we're adding to the open space, but we're making the open space that is in these villages,that has to be
maintained weekly, more economical to maintain than the passive areas,the trail areas that are outside
the villages themselves.
Karen Kwasny: So you are agreeable to have discussions with the residents from Heritage Park?
Eddie Bourdon: We are willing to meet with the folks of Heritage Park and attempt to, in part, better
information with that. There is absolutely nothing that is occurring here, and you know as well as
anybody, if HomeFed was thinking about doing anything that was going to diminish the value of the
homes of Ashville Park,we'd have a whole of folks down here making that point loudly, and we don't.

Because that is clearly not is what is occurring here. But we are more than happy to go and speak with
the folks at Heritage Park between now and city Council.
Karen Kwasny: Okay. Thank you.
Eddie Bourdon: Thank you.
Jeff Hodgson: Are there any more questions for Mr. Bourdon? Thank you. We will now close the public
hearing and open it up for discussion amongst the Commissioners.
Mike Inman: Mr. Hodgson, I would say from what I heard there has been a tremendous amount of
cooperation between the developer and a number of residents or representatives of Ashville Park to try
and ensure that the integrity of the design is generally is upheld,that there is not a significant change,
and that there is a reason for the change that we have been given. Especially with regards to the
wetlands creation that was unintended and not created by the current developer. So, I understand the
concerns of the neighboring property owners, but all in all, and from what I've seen, and the
presentations we've seen and the documents that have been provided to us,there is a reasonable basis
for the change, and it's not a significant modification. So, I would be in favor of approving the
application.
Jeff Hodgson: Is there anybody else?
Karen Kwasny: Can I make a comment?
Jeff Hodgson: Sure.
Karen Kwasny: I think it is understandable that the neighboring community is not happy about the
reduction in lot size, and the increase in density to Village C,which borders many of their properties.
But I think that the 200 plus existing residences in Ashville Park have come to an agreement with the
developers. I think the benefit to the application is that the large lots still border Heritage Park,and the
lots that comprise Village E are now larger and address some environmental concerns on the edge of the
property bordering Back Bay. I also know that in talking with the residents that a number of negotiated
proffers were worked out with the developer,and there is a new kind of generation of trust developing
between them, and I think that is a very good thing. And so perhaps this may be the last time we see
HomeFed here for changes that would be nice, I'm sure,for all involved. And I think that the work they
are doing together blends well. For this reason, I encourage further discussion, but for those reasons
that I've put out, I recommend that we recommend approval of the Modification of Proffers. I would
like to make a motion that we do so.
Jeff Hodgson: A motion made by Commissioner Kwasny. Is there a second?
Mike Inman: I'll second it.
Jeff Hodgson: A second made by Commissioner Inman.

Stephen White: Mr. Chairman, does that motion include the two items that Mr. Bourdon spoke to
about the additions to the Manual?
Karen Kwasny: Yes. It includes those additions. The architectural guidelines.
Stephen White: Okay. Thank you.
Jeff Hodgson: Okay, I believe we are ready to vote.

CITY OF VIRGINIA BEACH
AGENDA ITEM
ITEM: CITY OF VIRGINIA BEACH [Applicant& Property Owner] Special Exemption
for Alternative Compliance (Build-to requirement in Oceanfront Resort
District Form-Based Code) at the property located South of 19th Street &
east of N. Birdneck Road, extending south to 17th Street & east to just
beyond Parks Avenue (SPORTS CENTER) (GPINs 2417661204, 2417760211,
2417763377, 2417769535, 2417866932), COUNCIL DISTRICT— BEACH.
MEETING DATE: July 3, 2018
■ Background:
The request for a Special Exception for Alternative Compliance is to develop a
285,000 square foot Sports Center building complex and surrounding surface
parking lots totaling 1,110 parking spaces. The proposed site layout does not meet
the Oceanfront Resort District Form-Based Code's "build-to" requirement for a
Civic Building type on a Gateway frontage. The prescribed form requires a building
to be placed between 5 and 35 feet from the right-of-way (the build-to zone) along
at least 50% of the site's street frontage. Since the proposed building footprint is
entirely outside of the build-to zone, a Special Exception for Alternative
Compliance is requested.
The proposal contains designs for two primary facilities to house a variety of sports
including basketball, volleyball, wrestling, gymnastics, cheer, field hockey and
indoor track. The complex has been separated into two primary forms housing the
competition courts and the track with lower spaces between and around the two
forms housing support facilities.
On a footprint of approximately 245,000 square feet, the maximum building height
reaches 55 feet at the two ridges, while typical wall heights are proposed at
approximately 35 feet. The exterior building materials include three colors of
silver/gray metal panels and glass along with translucent polycarbonate panels.
Each material has been selected to complement the materials of the adjacent
Convention Center while providing durable, functional cladding for the facility.
• Considerations:
The Planning Commission concurred with Staff that the proposed use advances
the goals and objectives of the Resort Area Strategic Action Plan and of the Form-
Based Code with regard to pedestrian-oriented activities, compatibility with uses
in the area, parking strategy for the district, etc. The Staff report addresses each
of these review standards in more detail. The Planning Commission suggested
City of Virginia Beach
Page 2 of 2
consideration of an aesthetic treatment at the corner of 19th Street and Birdneck
Road, such as an enhanced stormwater pond. They also commented on the
importance of the building's appearance from 17th Street, as this is also an
important gateway to the resort area.
There was one speaker in support, but with comments. The speaker noted
concerns related to stormwater and requested extensive plant material be installed
along 17th Street to aid in screening the building and service functions, and
expressed disappointment with the absence of articulation and architectural design
elements on the building's façade that faces 17th Street.
Recommendations:
City Staff recommends approval of this request. The Planning Commission passed
a motion to recommend approval of this request by a vote of 10-0.

Background and Summary of Proposal
• The request for a Special Exception for Alternative Compliance is to develop a Sports Center building complex
and surrounding surface parking lots totaling 1,110 parking spaces.The proposed site layout does not meet the
Oceanfront Resort District Form-Based Code's"build-to" requirement for a Civic Building type on a Gateway
frontage.The prescribed form requires a building to be placed between 5 and 35 feet from the right-of-way(the
build-to zone)along at least 50%of the site's street frontage. Since the proposed building footprint is entirely
outside of the build-to zone, a Special Exception for Alternative Compliance is needed.
• The proposed Sports Center will attract multiple sports-tourism events that the City has not been able to
compete for in the past.Two primary facilities have been designed to house a variety of sports including
basketball,volleyball,wrestling,gymnastics, cheer,field hockey and indoor track.The indoor track facility will e
designed to current NCAA indoor track&field standards and includes over 4,400 spectator seats.The courts
facility includes areas for spectator seating along with a mezzanine that includes seating and camping areas for
teams.The complex has a kitchen and dining areas easily accessible between the courts and the track along with
a training room,team meeting rooms, areas for coaches and recruiters, building administration and other
support areas.
• The total floor area of the facility is approximately 285,000 square feet on a footprint of approximately 245,000
square feet.The maximum building height reaches 55 feet at the two ridges,while typical wall heights are
approximately 35 feet.To reduce the scale of the building perimeter,the complex is separated into two primary
forms housing the competition courts and the track with lower spaces between and around the two forms
housing support facilities.These forms have been strategically oriented around the adjacent water feature with
the main entry to the facility accessed from 19th Street via a 30,000 square foot plaza overlooking the water
feature.This strategy is inviting to visitors from all sides of the facility and encourages use of the parking to the
west of the Center.The exterior building materials include three colors of silver/gray metal panels and glass
along with translucent polycarbonate panels. Each material has been selected to complement the materials of
the adjacent Convention Center while providing a durable, functional cladding for the facility.Additional site
features such as wood decking at the main entrance, bollards and pedestrian scale lighting have been included
to visually connect with the Convention Center.The lobby is open and inviting with views to the adjacent water
feature and the entry plaza area.
• Alternative Compliance to the Oceanfront Resort District (ORD)
The Form-Based Code (FBC) is the zoning regulation for land use and development in the ORD,which prescribe
specific building and design forms (i.e., build-to,transparency, height, setbacks, etc.).There are, however,two
other sets of provisions under which property may be developed that provide greater flexibility as necessary.
The first is the "Optional Forms of Development(OFD)," which is a by-right option administered by the City Staff
that can be applied when the purpose of a prescribed form is fulfilled to an equal or greater degree by a
different design solution.The second is"Alternative Compliance (AC),"which requires approval by the City
Council in the form of a Special Exception. As the granting of a Special Exception by the City Council is a
legislative act, Alternative Compliance allows for an even higher degree of flexibility than the Optional Forms o
Development.
Section 7.3.3 of the FBC provides the 'Review Standards' for these applications:
A. Applications for Alternative Compliance shall be evaluated for consistency with the following standards,
and the City Council, in deciding whether to allow Alternative Compliance, shall consider the extent to
which the proposed development,taken as a whole:

1. Advances the stated goals and objectives of the Resort Area Strategic Action Plan and this Code,
and specifically,the extent to which the proposed development:
a. Promotes modes of transportation other than the automobile, including walking and
transit;
b. Creates a built environment that is in scale with pedestrian-oriented activities and
provides visual interest and orientation for pedestrians; and
c. Contributes to a mix of uses in the area that are compatible with each other and work
together to create a memorable and successful place.
2. Is consistent with the intent of the regulations applicable to the street frontage in which it is
located,as set forth in Sec. 2.1 of this code;
3. Is physically and functionally integrated with the built environment in which it is located; and
4. Advances the goals and objectives of the parking strategy for the District.
B. The City Council shall also consider the potential impacts of the proposed deviation on surrounding
properties and the extent to which any adverse impacts from such deviation can be mitigated.

Evaluation and Recommendation
The Oceanfront Resort District Form-Based Code regulates the use and development of land through a system of Street
Frontages and Building Types.The streets surrounding the subject site are classified as"Gateway"Street Frontages,
which permit the "Civic Building" building type that is proposed. However,the proposed building will not meet the
"Build-To" building placement requirements for Civic Buildings,which require building(s)to be placed within 35 feet of
each right-of-way and to occupy at least 50 percent of the street frontage.Therefore,this proposal requires City Counc I
approval of a Special Exception for Alternative Compliance.
City of Virginia Beach
Agenda Item 5

As noted in the Background section of this report, Section 7.3.3 of the FBC provides the 'Review Standards' for
Alternative Compliance applications, noting that the City Council "shall consider the extent to which the proposed
development,taken as a whole," satisfies the standards. Each of those standards is listed below,with a Staff comment
pertaining to the degree to which the applicant's proposal meets each:
Advances the stated goals and objectives of the Resort Area Strategic Action Plan and this Code,and specifically,the
extent to which the proposed development:
• Promotes modes of transportation other than the automobile,including walking and transit.Staff Comment:
This site will include an enhanced internal multi-purpose path and internal sidewalks linking the building's
entrances to the exterior sidewalk and street network. Existing HRT bus stops on 17th Street/Virginia Beach
Boulevard will be improved with a concrete pad for a future shelter. Sidewalks will be added where gaps
currently exist along the perimeter streets. Bicycle parking and drop-off areas for ride-sharing services will be
provided near building entrances.
• Creates a built environment that is in scale with pedestrian-oriented activities and provides visual interest and
orientation for pedestrians.Staff Comments:Enhanced pedestrian pathways will interconnect and integrate the
Sports Center with the pedestrian plaza, Veterans Memorial, and Convention Center to create a vibrant and
inviting community space.
• Contributes to a mix of uses in the area that are compatible with each other and work together to create a
memorable and successful place.Staff Comments: The Sports Center will provide a new facility properly
equipped to handle the many sporting events and competitions that are already being held at the Convention
Center plus new sporting events requiring specialized facilities that are currently not available. This will open up
opportunities for more traditional events at the Convention Center, all of which will enliven this anchor of the
Central Beach District. Both entities will work together to share parking and coordinate events to improve the
visitor experience at both facilities.
• Is consistent with the intent of the regulations applicable to the street frontage in which it is located,as set
forth in Sec. 2.1 of this code.Staff Comments: The site is bordered by the Gateway frontage type, which is the
Oceanfront Resort District's most automobile-oriented frontage intended to carry the heaviest volumes of
vehicular traffic through the district. This is consistent with the proposed use, which will draw visitors arriving
predominately by automobiles.
• Is physically and functionally integrated with the built environment in which it is located.Staff Comments:As
another large venue building, the proposed Sports Center is compatible with the Convention Center both in scal
and use. The two buildings are offset just enough to improve the sense of place without overpowering the site i
one location. Similarly designed outdoor amenity spaces and pedestrian paths tie the two facilities together.
• Advances the goals and objectives of the parking strategy for the District.Staff Comments: The 1,110 surface
parking spaces included with the Sports Center project combined with the remaining Convention Center spaces
total 2,463 spaces. This shared resource provides a significant contribution to the City's parking inventory. In
addition to supporting Sports Center and Convention Center events, the parking areas also offer an opportunity
for satellite parking during special events at the oceanfront that do not conflict with Sports Center/Convention
Center events. In addition, the site will accommodate alternative modes of transportation, including pedestrian ,
bikes, buses, and ride-sharing services.
• The City Council shall also consider the potential impacts of the proposed deviation on surrounding properties
and the extent to which any adverse impacts from such deviation can be mitigated.Staff Comments: The
proposed deviation from the FBC is the absence of buildings within the build-to zone on the various street
frontages. The purpose of the build-to requirement is "to activate the street frontage by locating building facad s
close to the street, thereby providing an interesting, pedestrian-oriented streetscape"(p. 7-4 ORDFBC). Deviatin
from this requirement does not adversely impact surrounding properties due to the level of activity that will be
generated by the Sports Center programming and facilities. The Sports Center will draw visitors year round,
City of Virginia Beach
Agenda Item 5
Pagel4
directly addressing one of the most challenging goals of the Resort Area Strategic Action Plan. The code deviation
is further mitigated by new and refreshed outdoor amenity spaces throughout the site and generous landscape
buffers between the parking lots and streets.
Based on the conclusion that the proposed use and associated structures satisfy the standards above to the greatest
extent possible, Staff recommends approval of this Special Exception for Alternative Compliance to the Form-Based
Code.
Comprehensive Plan Recommendations
The Resort Area Strategic Action Plan (RASAP),adopted in December 2008, is the guiding planning policy for land use
and development in the Oceanfront Resort District.The Resort Area is recognized as an area where revitalization efforts
have and continue to transform the Resort Area into a major activity center, strengthen neighborhoods and increase
economic growth.The RASAP recommends creating great districts with distinctive identities, improving transit and
pedestrian connections between destinations, creating a transition from the resort to the neighborhoods,and
continuing to focus on achieving a year-round resort.The RASAP also calls for a district parking strategy with centralized
and shared parking to alleviate growing traffic demand, reduce surface parking, and concentrate traffic flow.

Item#5
City of Virginia Beach
Special Exception for Alternative Compliance
19th Street
District—Beach
June 13,2018
APPROVED
Carol Dozier: The first item to be heard today will be item number 5, the City of Virginia Beach,
an application for Special Exception for Alternative Compliance build to requirement in
Oceanfront Resort District Form-Based code on property located south of 19th Street and east of
North Birdneck Road extending south to 17th street and east to just beyond Parks Avenue. We
have one speaker in opposition on this matter.
Ms. Oliver: You want to just come up and go ahead and come on up and then read it and explain
it.
Ms. Moss: Hello Ashby Moss with the City of Virginia Beach SGA office. This application
is for Special Exception for Alternative Compliance to develop a sports center building complex
and surrounding surface parking lots. The proposed site layout does not meet the Oceanfront
Resort District Form-Based code build-to requirement for a civic building type on a gateway
frontage. The prescribed form requires a building to be placed between 5 and 35 feet from the
right-of-way which is what the build-to zone is along at least 50%of the side street frontage. Since
the proposed building footprint is entirely outside of the build-to zone, a special exception for
alternative compliance is needed. Sports center will attract multiple sports tourism events that the
city has not been able to attract before. It has two primary facilities, to house of variety of sports
including basketball, volleyball, wrestling, gymnastics, cheer, field hockey and indoor track. The
indoor track is designed to current NCAA indoor track and field standards and includes over 4,400
spectator seats and the courts facility includes areas for spectators seating along with the mezzanine
that includes seating and camping areas for teams. The complex also has a kitchen and dining
areas,training room,team meeting rooms, areas for coaches and recruiters,building administration
and other support areas. So with the Special Exception for Alternative Compliance, the Form-
Based code outlines different standards to show that the application advances the stated goals and
objectives of the resort area strategic action plan and this item has been reviewed and satisfies
these standards, so staff is recommending approval.
Ms. Oliver: Great, thank you. Is anybody has any questions for Mrs. Moss or comments?
Alright, okay thank you.
Carol Dozier: Okay we will call Tom Musumeci. Please state your name for the record sir?
Mr. Musumeci: Good afternoon, my name is Tom Musumeci. I live at 1008 Coastaway
Drive for the last 22 years and I am the chairperson of the Sea Bridge Square Civic Association.
Sea Bridge Square is a small neighborhood directly across 17th street from the proposed building.
We just have a couple of concerns overall we support the field house, but we are really concerned
that the back side of the building is coming right of the 17th street. I mean our best end case is if
the building would rotate and the backside of the building with the loading docks phase Birdneck
1
Road, given that's probably not going to be a great possibility. We want to make sure that there
is a whole lot of landscaping that kind of screens us. We don't want to come in out of our
neighborhood and look at the loading dock every day. I know that the reports talks about generous
landscaping. I would say overly,overly generous landscaping would really be what we are looking
for. We have a couple of other concerns too. The building looks extremely blank. I know that
when the City was considering the arena, I mean, it was a really detailed rendering of what that
building was going to look like and when you look in the staff report, the backside of that building
is just blank, so you know, I would like to see some architectural rendering, some real, something
to make that building look attractive. I think the other issue that we have is the stormwater
drainage. You know, this going to be a whole lot more impervious surfaces and I am not an expert
on this but it seems to me that there should be a BMP over there somewhere to kind of help with
the stormwater runoff. So those are really our concerns. We would like to see a much more
detailed rendering of the building; we want to make sure that 17th street is protected. I think
everybody in the city has high hopes for the redevelopment of 17th street and I think there is going
to be some projects coming forward that can help with that so between that and the stormwater
runoff, those are the issues that we are really concerned about and I would like to answer any
questions.
Ms. Oliver: Anybody have any questions? Thank you very much. Yes, Mrs. Moss.
Ms. Moss: I spoke with Mr. Musumeci prior to this, he shared his concerns about the
appearance of the building which I believe you also expressed earlier. The appearance of the
building from 17th street so we are not at the stage yet where we have that detail on the building
elevation from that side but we will certainly pay close attention to that. There are also some
requirements in the Form-Based Code that require that mechanical equipment to be completely
screen from view from the right-of-way and also prohibits a blank wall to continue horizontally or
vertically for more than 30 feet. So it would need to have a change in building materials or change
in the building plan, so at a minimum we will be meeting those requirements plus I think there are
some exterior building materials they can put especially on the upper part of the building that
would be visible from above the landscape screen. The BMP, we did not talk about that one but
stormwater will meet regulations so they are adding a new BMP in addition to the stormwater pond
that's already there so that will all be addressed with the site plan review and I think that was it.
Ms. Oliver: Thank you.
Mr. Ripley: Ashby I am glad to hear that you are treating the elevations with some relief
breakup, elevation relief, I was going to suggest that we are very minimally look at the design
criteria for the big boxes that were developed and you probably can meet everything that's in there
but that was a big concern with big boxes and making sure that the architectural relief designed
into it and so hopefully, if we are asking the public to do that, I think the city also look at that as
well.
Ms. Moss: Okay.
Ms. Oliver: Any other questions?
Mr. Horsley: I have a question. Ashby can you tell me what spurred you to put this in this
location?
2
Ms. Moss: No. I think well, it's kind of a symbiotic use with the convention center and it is
going to accommodate a lot of the sporting events that previously have been held in the convention
center so and you know this has the space to accommodate it. There is the hotel infrastructure
already in place to accommodate guests that come for overnight stays so it really does work hand
in hand with the convention center which is right across the street.
Mr. Horsley: Okay thank you.
Ms. Oliver: Okay thank you. We will close this session now for discussion among the
commissioners. Yes.
Mr. Hodgson: I don't want to beat a dead horse,but the concern that we talked about this morning
and former was the back of this building, I met with the some of the stakeholders that own a
significant amount of property on 17th Street and their concern was how to make the back of this
building not look like the back of this building and Ric is not in here so I don't think he can tell
me I'm wrong which maybe but I believe 17th Street is a much more heavily travelled gateway
than 19th Street, am I right in that Barry I believe. Ric is here. Is it 17th Street is much more
significantly traveled than 19th Street.
Rick: Yes.
Mr. Hodgson: Okay thank you, you are hiding, but this is the back of the building and 17th Street
is kind of going through a much needed facelift in just in the last couple of years and hopefully it's
going to continue back towards this new facility and it would be an absolute shame to just have a
giant metal wall along the Boulevard. So I would really like to see like Ron mentioned some
elevations something showing us, so just giving some satisfaction that this is going to not look like
what I am seeing right here. So that's my biggest concern and like I said I met with some of the
property owners that have a considerable amount of property there and that was their concern
because they want to redevelop their parcel and they don't want to just be looking at the back of
the building.
Ms. Oliver: Jan.
Ms. Rucinski: I also have that same concern and thinking that maybe this is an opportunity for a
local artist to do some kind of rendering that could give some real character and real charm to that
building like they have done you know in other locations and I know there is a couple of hotels
down at the beach that have those big murals and stuff on that so I mean that might be something
else.
Mr. Hodgson: Well this is leading into the ViBe district which is what we're kind of calling our
arts and crafts district where we are doing a lot of murals, so I mean I say that's not a bad idea at
all that's maybe someone need to look at it.
Ms. Rucinski: So that might be a way that to also make it look more than what it is.
Ms. Oliver: Yeah and I think that 31' Street is a gateway into the City so is 17th,Route 58 and
so as we start to develop it and as we have been developing it, it's real important that this building
has that presence on the south side of it as it does on the north side of it without a doubt. Yes Jack.
Mr. Wall: You know we talked about the aesthetics of the structure but you know in terms of
the aesthetics of the whole site, I think it would be nice if the you know for the record if the city
3
II
you know public works department you know consider the corner of the 19th and Birdneck and
then we have parking, you know all the way up against Birdneck and it is shown in the site layout
to be all the way up against the corner of Birdneck and toward the 19th Street, but some kind of
aesthetic feature you know even to the loss of parking spaces, I think would be a benefit or a
betterment to the development. So you know possibly a water feature and maybe not something
that supporting the stormwater management but maybe something that could support the
stormwater management, something that could support maybe the latest stormwater management
regulations that could potentially apply to the site.
Ms. Oliver: Yeah I like that. It would be great,anything else? No, alright,so we have a motion?
Mr. Hodgson: I will make a motion to approve agenda item number five.
Ms. Oliver: We have second.
Mr. Weiner: Second.
Ms. Oliver: Great thank you. Motion made by commissioner Hodgson and seconded by
commissioner Weiner. Call for the question.
Carol Dozier: By recorded vote of 10-0, item number five City of Virginia Beach has been
approved.

AGENDA ITEM
ITEM: AN ORDINANCE TO AMEND SECTIONS 102, 111, 401, 501, 601, 901, 1110,
1125, 1521 AND 2203 OF THE CITY ZONING ORDINANCE AND SECTION 5.2
OF THE OCEANFRONT RESORT DISTRICT FORM-BASED CODE AND ADD
SECTIONS 209.6 AND 241.2 OF THE CITY ZONING ORDINANCE
PERTAINING TO DEFINITON, REQUIREMENTS AND USE OF HOME
SHARING AND SHORT TERM RENTALS [ALTERNATIVE 1]
MEETING DATE: July 3, 2018
• Background:
At the request of Mayor Jones, staff has prepared a Short Term Rental
questionnaire to be distributed to all Council members. The results of this
questionnaire will assist in determining which items there is consensus on, and
which need more consideration. It is the hope that this will lead to an ordinance
that can be considered by Planning Commission. City Council voted to defer
consideration of STRs on June 5, 2018.
While discussing STRs at the informal session of June 26, 2018, City Council
indicated the desire to draft a new STR ordinance that would be sent to Planning
Commission for their consideration. Staff's recommendation at the informal
session was that all STR ordinances previously presented and referred from the
Planning Commission be denied in order to allow consideration of the new
ordinance to be referred by the Council to the Planning Commission at a future
date.
Since 2016, the City of Virginia Beach has been working towards establishing an
Ordinance to address short-term rentals (rental of thirty days or less). Using input
and recommendations from the Beaches and Waterways Commission regarding
event homes, and from the On-Line Home Sharing Ad Hoc Committee's
recommendation to City Council, Staff drafted three ordinances. On February 14,
2018 the Planning Commission considered these three short term rental (STR)
ordinances. Alternative 1 created a Short Term Rental Overlay District. Within the
overlay district, STRs were permitted, all other areas involved a conditional use
permit. Alternative 2 required a conditional use permit; however, all STRs that were
registered and paid taxes as of a certain date would be grandfathered. Alternative
3 made STRs a permitted use and established criteria they would have to meet.
Planning Commission recommended approval of an amended version of
Alternative 3 to City Council, titled "Planning Commission Version." An amended
City of Virginia Beach —Short Term Rental Alternative 1
Page 2 of 2
version of Alternative 2 was also voted on at the Planning Commission; however,
it was not approved.
• Considerations:
This amendment would establish definitions and requirements for home sharing
and short term rentals. Further details pertaining to the amendments, as well as
Staffs evaluation are provided in the attached Staff report. Opposition was present
at the public hearing.
Planning Commission did not support the use of an overlay district or of Conditional
Use Permits to regulate Short Term Rentals.
• Recommendations:
City Staff deferred to the Planning Commission. The Planning Commission passed
a motion by a recorded vote of 11-0, to recommend denial of this request.
• Attachments:

Recommended Action: Staff recommends Denial based on June 26, 2018 Workshop.

AGENDA ITEM
ITEM: AN ORDINANCE TO AMEND THE OFFICIAL ZONING MAP BY THE
DESIGNATION AND INCORPORATION OF PROPERTY INTO THE SHORT
TERM RENTAL OVERLAY DISTRICT
MEETING DATE: July 3, 2018
■ Background:
At the request of Mayor Jones, staff has prepared a Short Term Rental
questionnaire to be distributed to all Council members. The results of this
questionnaire will assist in determining which items there is consensus on, and
which need more consideration. It is the hope that this will lead to an ordinance
that can be considered by Planning Commission. City Council voted to defer
consideration of STRs on June 5, 2018.
While discussing STRs at the informal session of June 26, 2018, City Council
indicated the desire to draft a new STR ordinance that would be sent to Planning
Commission for their consideration. Staff's recommendation at the informal
session was that all STR ordinances previously presented and referred from the
Planning Commission be denied in order to allow consideration of the new
ordinance to be referred by the Council to the Planning Commission at a future
date.
Since 2016, the City of Virginia Beach has been working towards establishing an
Ordinance to address short-term rentals (rental of thirty days or less). Using input
and recommendations from the Beaches and Waterways Commission regarding
event homes, and from the On-Line Home Sharing Ad Hoc Committee's
recommendation to City Council, Staff drafted three ordinances. On February 14,
2018 the Planning Commission considered these three short term rental (STR)
ordinances. Alternative 1 created a Short Term Rental Overlay District. Within the
overlay district, STRs were permitted, all other areas involved a conditional use
permit. Alternative 2 required a conditional use permit; however, all STRs that were
registered and paid taxes as of a certain date would be grandfathered. Alternative
3 made STRs a permitted use and established criteria they would have to meet.
Planning Commission recommended approval of an amended version of
Alternative 3 to City Council, titled "Planning Commission Version." An amended
version of Alternative 2 was also voted on at the Planning Commission; however,
it was not approved.

ITEM: AN ORDINANCE TO ADD ARTICLE 23, CONSISTING OF SECTIONS 2300
THROUGH 2303, (SHORT TERM RENTAL OVERLAY DISTRICT) TO THE
CITY ZONING ORDINANCE ESTABLISHING REGULATIONS AND
REQUIREMENTS PERTAINING TO SHORT TERM RENTALS
MEETING DATE: July 3, 2018
• Background:
At the request of Mayor Jones, staff has prepared a Short Term Rental
questionnaire to be distributed to all Council members. The results of this
questionnaire will assist in determining which items there is consensus on, and
which need more consideration. It is the hope that this will lead to an ordinance
that can be considered by Planning Commission. City Council voted to defer
consideration of STRs on June 5, 2018.
While discussing STRs at the informal session of June 26, 2018, City Council
indicated the desire to draft a new STR ordinance that would be sent to Planning
Commission for their consideration. Staffs recommendation at the informal
session was that all STR ordinances previously presented and referred from the
Planning Commission be denied in order to allow consideration of the new
ordinance to be referred by the Council to the Planning Commission at a future
date.
Since 2016, the City of Virginia Beach has been working towards establishing an
Ordinance to address short-term rentals (rental of thirty days or less). Using input
and recommendations from the Beaches and Waterways Commission regarding
event homes, and from the On-Line Home Sharing Ad Hoc Committee's

registered and paid taxes as of a certain date would be grandfathered. Alternative
3 made STRs a permitted use and established criteria they would have to meet.
Planning Commission recommended approval of an amended version of
Alternative 3 to City Council, titled "Planning Commission Version." An amended
version of Alternative 2 was also voted on at the Planning Commission; however,
it was not approved.

SHARING AND SHORT TERM RENTALS [ALTERNATIVE 2]
MEETING DATE: July 3, 2018
■ Background:
At the request of Mayor Jones, staff has prepared a Short Term Rental
questionnaire to be distributed to all Council members. The results of this
questionnaire will assist in determining which items there is consensus on, and
which need more consideration. It is the hope that this will lead to an ordinance
that can be considered by Planning Commission. City Council voted to defer
consideration of STRs on June 5, 2018.
While discussing STRs at the informal session of June 26, 2018, City Council
indicated the desire to draft a new STR ordinance that would be sent to Planning
Commission for their consideration. Staffs recommendation at the informal
session was that all STR ordinances previously presented and referred from the
Planning Commission be denied in order to allow consideration of the new
ordinance to be referred by the Council to the Planning Commission at a future
date.
Since 2016, the City of Virginia Beach has been working towards establishing an
Ordinance to address short-term rentals (rental of thirty days or less). Using input
and recommendations from the Beaches and Waterways Commission regarding
event homes, and from the On-Line Home Sharing Ad Hoc Committee's
recommendation to City Council, Staff drafted three ordinances. On February 14,
2018 the Planning Commission considered these three short term rental (STR)
ordinances. Alternative 1 created a Short Term Rental Overlay District. Within the
overlay district, STRs were permitted, all other areas involved a conditional use
permit. Alternative 2 required a conditional use permit; however, all STRs that were
registered and paid taxes as of a certain date would be grandfathered. Alternative
3 made STRs a permitted use and established criteria they would have to meet.
Planning Commission recommended approval of an amended version of
Alternative 3 to City Council, titled "Planning Commission Version." An amended
City of Virginia Beach — Home Sharing and Short Term Rentals [Alternative 2]
Page 2 of 2
version of Alternative 2 was also voted on at the Planning Commission; however,
it was not approved.
• Considerations:
This amendment would grandfather all existing short term rental homes that have
registered and have paid all applicable taxes prior to the date that would be
adopted with the ordinance. Further details pertaining to the amendments, as well
as Staff's evaluation are provided in the attached Staff report. Opposition was
present at the public hearing.
Planning Commission did not consider the alternative two drafted by Staff;
however voted on a substitute alternative two.
• Recommendations:
City Staff deferred to the Planning Commission. The Planning Commission did not
consider this alternative.

Virginia Beach
Request
An ordinance to amend sections 111, 401, 501, 601, 901, 1110, 1125, 1521 and 2203 of the City Zoning Ordinance and
Section 5.2 of the Oceanfront Resort District Form-Based Code and add section 209.6 and 241.2 of the City Zoning
Ordinance pertaining to definition, requirements and use of Home Sharing and Short Term Rental.
Summary of Request
This item was deferred at the December Planning Commission meeting to allow for further consideration. Since that
meeting, the Planning Commission held two workshops (January 24th and February 7th). During these workshops, the
Planning Commission discussed the proposed options for short term rental regulation, including the implementation of
an overlay district, the use of"grandfathering", and requiring a conditional use permit. Several key issues dealing with
regulation were discussed at length and are listed below.
• Occupancy limitations for short term rentals;
• Number of rental contracts permitted in a seven day period;
• Accommodation of off-street parking and parking requirements;
• Insurance requirements;
• Permitting of larger (special) events; and
• The accessibility and availability of an emergency contact.
Based on the discussions at these workshops, Planning Commission does not have an official direction prior to the
creation of this staff report.
Recommendation
Staff does not have a recommendation regarding this agenda item at this time.

MEETING DATE: July 3, 2018
• Background:
At the request of Mayor Jones, staff has prepared a Short Term Rental
questionnaire to be distributed to all Council members. The results of this
questionnaire will assist in determining which items there is consensus on, and
which need more consideration. It is the hope that this will lead to an ordinance
that can be considered by Planning Commission. City Council voted to defer
consideration of STRs on June 5, 2018.
While discussing STRs at the informal session of June 26, 2018, City Council
indicated the desire to draft a new STR ordinance that would be sent to Planning
Commission for their consideration. Staff's recommendation at the informal
session was that all STR ordinances previously presented and referred from the
Planning Commission be denied in order to allow consideration of the new
ordinance to be referred by the Council to the Planning Commission at a future
date.
Since 2016, the City of Virginia Beach has been working towards establishing an
Ordinance to address short-term rentals (rental of thirty days or less). Using input
and recommendations from the Beaches and Waterways Commission regarding
event homes, and from the On-Line Home Sharing Ad Hoc Committee's
recommendation to City Council, Staff drafted three ordinances. On February 14,
2018 the Planning Commission considered these three short term rental (STR)
ordinances. Alternative 1 created a Short Term Rental Overlay District. Within the
overlay district, STRs were permitted, all other areas involved a conditional use
permit. Alternative 2 required a conditional use permit; however, all STRs that
were registered and paid taxes as of a certain date would be grandfathered.
Alternative 3 made STRs a permitted use and established criteria they would have
to meet.

Page 2 of 2
Planning Commission recommended approval of an amended version of
Alternative 3 to City Council, titled "Planning Commission Version." An amended
version of Alternative 2 was also voted on at the Planning Commission; however,
it was not approved.
• Considerations:
This amendment would allow short term rentals as a permitted use. Regulations
would be established which would need to be adhered to. Further details pertaining
to the amendments, as well as Staffs evaluation are provided in the attached Staff
report. Opposition was present at the public hearing.
Planning Commission considered alternative three and made several changes to
the regulations proposed in the version drafted by Staff. A new version of this
alternative was substituted for consideration.
• Recommendations:
City Staff deferred to the Planning Commission. The Planning Commission did not
consider this alternative.

approved by the Zoning Administrator, instead of a minimum of two off-
street parking spaces.
2. A summary of applicable City Codes must be posted, instead of the full text.
3. Two rental contracts per seven day period, instead of one.
4. $500,000 insurance required, instead of $1 million.
5. Occupancy of three persons per bedroom plus an additional two persons,
instead of two persons per bedroom plus an additional four.
6. Signs displaying house names are exempt from the signage requirements.
7. Information needs to be provided for a contact, instead of a contact being

Request
An ordinance to amend sections 111,401, 501, 601, 901, 1110, 1125, 1521 and 2203 of the City Zoning Ordinance and
Section 5.2 of the Oceanfront Resort District Form-Based Code and add section 209.6 and 241.2 of the City Zoning
Ordinance pertaining to definition, requirements and use of Accessory Use-Short Term Rental.
Summary of Request
This item was deferred at the December Planning Commission meeting to allow for further consideration. Since that
meeting,the Planning Commission held two workshops (January 24th and February 71. During these workshops,the
Planning Commission discussed the proposed options for short term rental regulation, including the implementation of
an overlay district,the use of"grandfathering", and requiring a conditional use permit. Several key issues dealing with
regulation were discussed at length and are listed below.
• Occupancy limitations for short term rentals;
• Number of rental contracts permitted in a seven day period;
• Accommodation of off-street parking and parking requirements;
• Insurance requirements;
• Permitting of larger(special) events; and
• The accessibility and availability of an emergency contact.
Based on the discussions at these workshops, Planning Commission does not have an official direction prior to the
creation of this staff report.
Recommendation
Staff does not have a recommendation regarding this agenda item at this time.
