AGENDA ITEM
ITEM: An Ordinance Authorizing the City Manager to Execute a Lease for Up to 4
Years with S&H Produce, Inc. for City-Owned Property Known as Building 3,
Space Number 13 in the Virginia Beach Farmers Market
MEETING DATE: January 15, 2019
• Background: S&H Produce, Inc., would like to enter into a new lease with the
City of Virginia Beach for Building 3, Space Number 13 in the Virginia Beach
Farmers Market (the "Lease"). The premises consists of approximately 960
square feet and will be utilized for the sale of local fresh vegetables and fruits,
local honey, Virginia peanuts, fresh eggs, and related items, and for no other
purpose.
• Considerations: The initial term of the Lease is three (3) years with one
renewal option for a term of one (1) year, exercisable by mutual agreement of the
parties. The City has the right to terminate the Lease with sixty (60) days' notice
if needed for a public purpose. For more specific terms, see Summary of Terms
attached to the ordinance.
Typically leases at the Farmers Market run for terms of up to 5 years, including
renewal, but S&H Produce, Inc. did not return the signed lease for nearly a year
so one option term has been removed in order to keep the lease on the same
schedule as other leases in the Farmers Market that are put out for requests for
proposal at the same time.

Council Agenda.

AGENDA ITEM
ITEM: An Ordinance Authorizing the City Manager to Execute a Lease for Up to 4
Years with Jesse B. Spry, t/a Holland Produce, for City-Owned Property
Known as Building 7, Space Numbers 5 & 6 in the Virginia Beach Farmers
Market
MEETING DATE: January 15, 2019
• Background: Jesse B. Spry, t/a Holland Produce ("Holland Produce"), would
like to enter into a new lease with the City of Virginia Beach for Building 7, Space
Numbers 5 & 6 in the Virginia Beach Farmers Market (the "Lease"). The
premises consists of approximately 980 square feet and will be utilized for the
sale of local produce, herbs, honey, eggs, Virginia peanuts and related items,
and for no other purpose.
• Considerations: The initial term of the Lease is three (3) years with one
renewal option of one (1) year, exercisable by mutual agreement of the parties.
The City has the right to terminate the Lease with sixty (60) days' notice if
needed for a public purpose. For more specific terms, see Summary of Terms
attached to the ordinance.
Typically leases at the Farmers Market run for terms of up to 5 years, including
renewal, but Holland Produce did not return the signed lease for nearly a year so
one option term has been removed in order to keep the lease on the same
schedule as other leases in the Farmers Market that are put out for requests for
proposal at the same time.

Council Agenda

ITEM: An Ordinance Authorizing the City Manager to Execute a Franchise Agreement
for the Use of Portions of Public Right-of-Way at Town Center for Valet Services
MEETING DATE: January 15, 2019
• Background: The Town Center Project (the "Project") has been an ongoing
priority of the City of Virginia Beach (the "City"). The Project is a mixed-use
development with public parking located on-street, in one surface lot and in five
parking garages. The on-street parking is owned by the City as right-of-way, and
the surface lots and parking garages are owned by the City of Virginia Beach
Development Authority (the "Authority").
On September 19, 2018, City Staff solicited proposals for the provision of Valet
Services at the Project for up to five years (the "Valet RFP"). An Evaluation
Committee was formed to review the two responsive proposals. The Committee
determined that the proposal from East Coast Valet Company, LLC, a Virginia
limited liability company ("East Coast") was the highest responsive bidder and
recommended that the City award a franchise agreement for valet services at
Town Center (the "Franchise Agreement") to East Coast.
• Considerations: The term of the proposed Franchise Agreement is three (3)
years, with two (2) one-year renewal options.
The Franchise Agreement would include five (5) parking spaces on Commerce
Street between Central Park Avenue and Market Street, a portion of the pick-up/
drop-off area on Market Street in front of McCormick & Schmick's Seafood, and
space on the sidewalk adjacent to said areas for signage and valet equipment.
• Public Information: The Valet RFP was advertised in The Virginian-Pilot and on
DemandStar.com. The public hearing for the award of the Franchise Agreement
was advertised in The Virginian-Pilot. Advertisement of City Council Agenda.
• Alternatives: Approve terms of the Franchise Agreement as presented, alter
terms of the Franchise Agreement, or decline to enter into the Franchise
Agreement.

AGENDA ITEM
ITEM: Resolution Approving a Non-binding Term Sheet Relating to the Dome Site
Project, Requesting Approval by the City of Virginia Beach Development
Authority and Authorizing the Development of Definitive Project Documents
MEETING DATE: January 15, 2019
• Background: The City of Virginia Beach (the "City") owns property at the
Oceanfront, consisting of approximately 10.5 acres (the "Dome Site"). The Dome Site
consists of three (3) blocks of approximately 3.2 acres each located along 19th St., an
additional 0.70 acre parcel at the corner of 18th St. and Arctic Ave., and a portion of 19th
Street between Pacific Ave. and Arctic Ave.
As directed by City Council, the City of Virginia Beach Development Authority (the
"Authority") issued an RFQ seeking qualified developers for development of the Dome
Site. After consideration of all responsive proposals, the Authority, in consultation with
its Council liaisons, determined that Venture Waves, LLC, a Virginia limited liability
company (the "Developer"), presented the best opportunity to deliver a transformational
project at the Dome Site, and the Authority entered into an exclusive dealing agreement
with the Developer.
The Developer proposes to develop a mixed-use development consisting of office, retail,
residential, entertainment, recreational and parking uses (the "Project"). The Developer
has requested that the Authority and the City publicly participate in the Project primarily
in the form of the acquisition of the entertainment venue, parking facilities, certain
additional improved public spaces and by the payment of an annual incentive payable
from the TIP Fund based on taxes generated by the Developer at the Project.
Council liaisons, City staff and representatives of the Developer have worked to develop
a non-binding term sheet for construction and operation of the Project. The terms and
conditions of development of the Project are set forth in the Term Sheet dated December
21, 2018 and attached to the Resolution as Exhibit A.
• Considerations: The Arena Term Sheet is a non-binding document that will guide
the development of the definitive transaction documents. Prior to execution of the final
transaction documents, this matter will come back to City Council for a public hearing
and another vote on whether to authorize the execution of such documents and bind the
City. All the obligations of the City and Authority would be subject to annual
appropriation.
• Information: Public information for this item will be handled through the normal
Council agenda process. The proposed terms were briefed to City Council on January 8,
2019.
• Recommendations: Approve the Dome Site Term Sheet; request approval and
execution by the City of Virginia Beach Development Authority; and authorize the
development of supplemental project documents.

DOME SITE REDEVELOPMENT
TERM SHEET
The City of Virginia Beach Development Authority(the"Authority") issued a Request for
Qualifications(RFQ) for the development of approximately 10.5 acres known as the"Dome Site".
The Dome Site consists of three(3)blocks of approximately 3.2 acres each located on 19th St., an
additional 0.70 acres parcel at the corner of 18th St. and Arctic Ave., and a portion of 19th Street
between Pacific Ave. and Arctic Ave. (the "Property"). The Property is shown on Exhibit A,
attached hereto. Representatives of Venture Waves, LLC (or its assigns) (the "Developer")
submitted its qualifications to the Authority on January 4, 2017. The Authority elected to
exclusively negotiate with the Developer on November 21,2017.The Authority and the Developer
executed an Exclusive Dealing Agreement, dated February 1, 2018, as amended.
As set forth below, the Developer proposes the development of a mixed-use development
project consisting of office, retail, residential, entertainment, recreational and parking uses. The
Developer has requested the Authority and the City of Virginia Beach (the "City") to publicly
participate in the Project (defined below) primarily in the form of the acquisition of the
entertainment venue,parking facilities and certain additional improved public spaces. In addition,
the Developer has requested TDFP participation and a performance grant in an amount necessary
to achieve a financeable return on cost. These forms of participation will allow the Developer to
address public parking needs, provide public amenities and dramatically enhance the density and
quality of development, consistent with the City's vision for the Dome Site.
This Term Sheet is an outline of terms. Moreover,this Term Sheet is not,nor is it intended
to be, an offer, an acceptance, or a binding agreement of any kind. To the contrary, this Term
Sheet is only a summary of the basic terms of a possible transaction, which may be agreed in
principle only. Although this Term Sheet identifies many of the material issues, any possible
transaction is complex and issues may arise during preparation and negotiation of definitive
documentation that have not been discussed in this Term Sheet. Accordingly, legal obligations
among the parties will only be as specified in any definitive agreements that ultimately may be
approved by City Council, the Authority's Board of Commissioners and the Developer's
principals, and executed by all of the parties. Any and all obligations of the City and the Authority
are subject to appropriation of sufficient funds to meet those obligations by the City Council of the
City of Virginia Beach. Additionally, none of the parties to this Term Sheet are under any
obligation or duty to attempt to negotiate a transaction or any related documentation or, if such
negotiations commence, to continue such negotiations. Nonetheless, by approving this Term
Sheet, each party indicates its belief that this Term Sheet can form the basis for a transaction and
their respective willingness to commence negotiation and preparation of definitive documentation
toward that end.

b. Public Comment and City Council vote on Term Sheet on January 15, 2019
c. Authority vote on Term Sheet on January 15, 2019
d. Development of definitive,binding documents. Included in the documents will
be a "pre-development period" where the parties will agree to jointly fund design

documents (which will follow additional public outreach and a vote by both City
Council and the Authority) the parties will have agreed on guaranteed maximum
price contracts and the Authority's audit and cost verification rights for all
elements of the Project being constructed and a competitive bidding process for
the construction work paid for by the Authority. The parties will also agree on a
plan of finance for the Project.

the possibility of the execution of an additional work item for a RFID System at a cost of
$778,980, which was separately funded by the Council in the CIP as Project 3-706. If
the execution of the additional work is included, the maximum possible contract total is
$5,099,534.
• Considerations: The PPEA requires the appropriating body to review a
proposed Comprehensive Agreement prior to execution. The Council was provided a
public briefing of the terms of the Comprehensive Agreement at the December 11 , 2018
Informal Session. The attached resolution provides the Council's concurrence with the
Sheriff's recommendation to proceed with the Comprehensive Agreement with R & S

CITY OF VIRGINIA BEACH
AGENDA ITEM
ITEM: A Resolution Authorizing the Mayor to Execute a Sixth Amended Charter
Agreement of the Hampton Roads Workforce Council (Formerly Known As Opportunity
Inc. of Hampton Roads)
MEETING DATE: January 15, 2019
• Background: The Southeastern Tidewater Area Manpower Authority was
established by joint action of Virginia Beach, Suffolk, Southampton County, Portsmouth,
Norfolk, Isle of Wight County, Franklin, and Chesapeake in 1974. This entity is
responsible for overseeing federally funded workforce development programs. Various
iterations and charter agreements since its establishment have corresponded to changes
in federal legislation. The original charter agreement was in response to the
Comprehensive Employment and Training Act of 1973. The 1983 amendment was in
response to the Job Training Partnership Act of 1982. The 2000 amendment was in
response to the Workforce Investment Act. The 2001 amendment rebranded the entity
as "Opportunity, Inc." and included a working Memorandum of Understanding ("MOU").
The Workforce Innovation and Opportunity Act of 2014 ("WIOA") was the impetus for
2015 amendment, which brought Opportunity Inc. of Hampton Roads into conformance
with the W I OA.
To better communicate Opportunity Inc.'s role as the regional convener of workforce
development, the Hampton Roads Workforce Development Board recently announced
the retirement of the Opportunity Inc. brand name and will now operate as the Hampton
Roads Workforce Council.
• Considerations: The organization's charter agreement needs to be amended
again to accommodate this change.
• Public Information: Public information will be provided through the normal City
Council agenda process.
• Recommendations: Adopt the resolution authorizing the Mayor to sign the sixth
amended charter agreement.
• Attachments: Resolution, amended agreement, and letter requesting
amendment.

8 Cities of Chesapeake, Franklin, Norfolk, Portsmouth, Suffolk and Virginia Beach, and the

10 Tidewater Area Manpower Authority, for the purpose of administering the Comprehensive
11 Employment and Training Act of 1973;
12
13 WHEREAS, the Charter Agreement was amended, effective October 1, 1983, to

Virginia Beach,Virginia 23456-9001
Dear Mr. Hansen,
To better communicate Opportunity Inc.'s role as the regional convener of workforce development,the Hampton
Roads Workforce Development Board recently announced the retirement of the Opportunity Inc. brand name and
will now operate as the Hampton Roads Workforce Council. This name change requires that the consortium of
governments known as Opportunity Inc. of Hampton Roads amend its current Charter Agreement between the
eight(8)participating localities in order to accommodate this change.
Please find attached the revised Sixth Amended Charter Agreement of the Hampton Roads Workforce Council
(formerly known as Opportunity Inc. of Hampton Roads). This document contains only minor revisions related to
the rebranding and does not include any substantive changes from their previous versions. It has been reviewed
by our attorney, Robert Barry with Kaufman and Canoles, as well as by the current HRWDB Chair and Vice
Chair, Delceno Miles and Mark Johnson
As with the last revision to the Charter Agreement in 2015,we are now requesting that the Virginia Beach City
Attorney's Office review the document and if they are acceptable,that it be executed by the City of Virginia
Beach. Once signed by City of Virginia Beach officials,I will send to the other seven(7)participating
jurisdictions requesting that it be likewise executed, signed and returned directly to me. Attached is the draft
transmittal to the participating jurisdictions that we will send out once executed by Virginia Beach.
Once all eight(8)jurisdictions have executed the Sixth Amended Charter Agreement,staff will consolidate the
signed agreements and provide a final version to each locality for their records. An official version will also be
kept on file at our offices.
As always, I would be more than happy to come make a presentation to Council if it would assist in the process.
Thank you for your assistance in addressing this matter. If you have any questions or need any additional
information,please do not hesitate to contact me at 757-314-2370.
Sincerely,
Shawn Avery

AGENDA ITEM 1
ITEM: A Resolution Authorizing and Directing the City Manager to Execute an Amendment
to the Memorandum of Agreement to Continue the Hampton Roads Regional Water Quality
Monitoring Program Between the City of Virginia Beach and Hampton Roads Planning District
Commission
MEETING DATE: January 15, 2019
• Background: The localities of Hampton Roads, including the City of Virginia Beach,
and the Hampton Roads Planning District Commission (HRPDC) entered into a
Memorandum of Agreement (MOA) to establish a Hampton Roads Regional Water Quality
Monitoring Program. The Hampton Roads Regional Water Quality Monitoring Program was
established to monitor stormwater at a regional scale and to measure the amount of nutrient
and sediment from specific land uses in Hampton Roads. This water quality monitoring
program is a requirement of the City's Municipal Separate Storm Sewer System (MS4)
permit with the Virginia Department of Environmental Quality (DEQ).
The MOA was entered into on March 1, 2014 among the Cities of Chesapeake, Hampton,
Newport News, Norfolk, Portsmouth, Virginia Beach, and the HRPDC. The localities
requested that the HRPDC coordinate this regional water quality monitoring program for
Hampton Roads. The amendment will continue the water quality monitoring program
required by the City's MS4 permit with DEQ. The current MOA for this program expires in
March 2019. The amendment will extend the term of the MOA for six years.
• Considerations: This is the continuation of a process the City has beneficially used
since 2014. Total cost to the City for the first year of the agreement is $77,917. Funding for
this cost is included in the FY19 Budget.
• Public Information: Public information will be provided through the normal City
Council agenda process.

MOA FOR THE HAMPTON ROADS
REGIONAL WATER QUALITY
MONITORING PROGRAM
EXPIRES MARCH 2019
MEMORANDUM OF AGREEMENT
ESTABLISHING THE
HAMPTON ROADS REGIONAL WATER QUALITY MONITORING PROGRAM
This Memorandum of Agreement ("Agreement") is entered into this First day of
March, 2014 by and among the Cities of Chesapeake, Hampton, Newport News,
Norfolk, Portsmouth, and Virginia Beach (individually, the "Locality;" collectively, the
"Localities") and the Hampton Roads Planning District Commission ("HRPDC").
WHEREAS, Sections 15.2-4200, et seq. of the Code of Virginia enables local
governments to establish Planning District Commissions; and
WHEREAS, the Localities, in common with several other local governments in the
region, have acted, pursuant to Sections 15.2-4200, et seq. of the Code of Virginia, to
establish the HRPDC; and
WHEREAS, the HRPDC has been requested and has undertaken various studies to
support local government stormwater management programs, including compliance with
Virginia Stormwater Management Program ("VSMP") and the Municipal Separate Storm
Sewer ("MS4") Permits; and
WHEREAS, the Localities have requested the HRPDC to coordinate a regional water
quality monitoring program; and
NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the premises, mutual covenants, and
obligations contained herein, the Localities and HRPDC hereby enter into this
Agreement for the purposes of establishing and maintaining the Hampton Roads
Regional Water Quality Monitoring Program.
BASIC PREMISES
The Localities initially received Virginia Pollutant Discharge Elimination System
("VPDES") Permits in 1996. Those permits, which were renewed in 2001, govern the
discharges from the individual Locality's MS4s to waters of the state and impose certain
operational and reporting requirements on those systems. These permits are
renewable on a five (5) year basis, and the Localities applied for renewed permits in
2005. The Localities continue to operate programs under administratively continued
permits. Permit renewals are expected in 2014.
The Localities are interested in monitoring stormwater in a manner which quantifies the
nitrogen, phosphorus, and sediment loads associated with specific land uses in
Hampton Roads.
The objective of the Regional Water Quality Monitoring Program is to collect data at a
regional scale that will accurately measure the amount of nutrient and sediments
delivered to waterways by the local MS4 systems. The data would be submitted to the
February 2014 1
Virginia Department of Environmental Quality ("DEQ") and/or the Chesapeake Bay
Program for updates to improve the accuracy of existing computer models, provide a
basis upon which to administer local stormwater programs with a greater degree of
precision, and improve action plans to meet the Chesapeake Bay total maximum daily
load ("TMDL") and other local TMDLs for impaired waters.
The Regional Water Quality Monitoring Program is based on a five-year work plan with
acquisition of monitoring equipment and services amortized over the entire term of the
initial program.
HRPDC RESPONSIBILITIES
Under the terms of this Agreement, the HRPDC staff is responsible for the following:
• Provide technical support related to water quality monitoring issues to local
government staff.
• Provide the necessary administrative, technical, and clerical resources to support
program activities.
• Prepare an annual budget for the Hampton Roads Regional Water Quality
Monitoring Program.
• Assist the signatories in coordinating communication on monitoring activities to
state and federal agencies to ensure that program goals are met.
• Take steps, in conjunction with the Localities, to obtain financial support for
program activities from outside sources, including federal, state, and private
grants, to the extent that this objective may be accomplished without creating a
conflict of interest, as determined by the Localities.
• Contract with the Hampton Roads Sanitation District ("HRSD") and the United
States Geological Survey ("USGS") to provide sampling and data analysis
required by the regional program.
• Provide the raw data from all monitoring devices directly to the Localities.
• Prepare annual program reports, or components thereof, which comply with the
provisions of the MS4 permits and stormwater management programs of the
Localities.
• Facilitate the use of the monitoring data in the local TMDL studies being
prepared through the DEQ and the United States Environmental Protection
Agency and facilitate preparation of TMDL Implementation Plans for impaired
waters in the Hampton Roads Region, if requested.
February 2014 2
LOCAL GOVERNMENT RESPONSIBILITIES
Under the terms of the Agreement, the Localities are responsible for the following:
• Appoint a representative to serve on the steering committee for the Regional
Water Quality Monitoring Program to represent the local government stormwater
and water quality related concerns.
• Provide timely technical review of HRPDC analyses and conclusions.
• Provide input on monitoring site selection and land use characterization to
support HRSD's sampling and USGS data analysis.
• Provide annual funding to support the agreed-upon regional program, subject to
appropriation.
METHOD OF FINANCING
Program costs will be divided equally between the Localities, and the annual cost to
each Locality for each year of the five year term of this Agreement is estimated at
$84,000. Local contributions may be increased above this annual estimate to reflect
program needs only upon modification of this Agreement.
Financial support from other entities, such as federal and state agencies, and the
private sector, may be sought and obtained to support the activities of the Hampton
Roads Regional Water Quality Monitoring Program, to the extent that this financing
effort may be accomplished without creating a conflict of interest, as determined by the
Localities.
AVAILABILITY OF FUNDS
Performance by the HRPDC of its responsibilities under this Agreement is subject to the
availability of funding from the Localities. The Localities' failure to provide the
necessary funding to support these activities will constitute a Notice to Modify or
Terminate the Agreement.
MODIFICATIONS
Modifications to this Agreement must be submitted in writing, approved by the HRPDC,
and accepted by all signatories.
DURATION AND TERMINATION
This Agreement will have a term of five (5) years, extending from the date of full
execution of the Agreement by the signatories. To conform to local government charter
and Virginia Code requirements, the funding provisions of this Agreement will be subject
February 2014 3
to annual appropriations.
Any signatory may terminate its participation in the Hampton Roads Regional Water
Quality Monitoring Program by written Notice to Terminate to all other parties. Such
termination will be effective with the start of the following fiscal year. Depending upon
the terms of individual MS4 permits, termination of participation in the Hampton Roads
Regional Stormwater Management Program in the middle of a permit term may result in
changes to permit conditions and require renegotiation of the individual locality's MS4
permit from DEQ.
OWNERSHIP OF PROPERTY
It is not the intent of the signatories that this Agreement will result in the purchase,
ownership, leasing, holding, or conveying of any real property, other than those real
property rights necessary for the location of the monitoring equipment. At the option of
the locality, the equipment paid for by the Localities will be the property of the locality in
which the equipment is located.
INDEMNITY
It is the intent of the signatories that no signatory will be held liable for any damage or
associated penalties caused by or associated with the failure of any other signatory to
discharge its duties or to exercise due diligence in discharging its duties under this
Agreement, and that no signatory, by entering this Agreement, waives any defenses or
immunities available to it at law, including, but not limited to, those set forth in Section
15.2-970 of the Code of Virginia.
It is the intent of the signatories that no signatory will be held liable for any damage or
associated penalties caused by or associated with the failure of any other signatory to
comply with the terms and conditions of the signatory's MS4 permit.
SEVERABILITY
If any provision in this Agreement is determined by a court of competent jurisdiction to
be invalid and unenforceable, then the remaining provisions shall survive and remain
valid and enforceable.
DISPUTE RESOLUTION AND APPLICABLE LAW
This Agreement shall be governed, interpreted and enforced by the laws of the
Commonwealth of Virginia. In the event of a dispute between any parties arising out of
or related to the Agreement, the parties agree to submit any cause of action to
mediation upon consent of all necessary parties, or, to a court with competent
jurisdiction located in the corporate limits of one of the member Localities.

all costs and expenses of such removal.
It is further expressly understood and agreed that the Grantee shall
indemnify, hold harmless, and defend the City, its agents and employees, from and
against all claims, damages, losses and expenses, including reasonable attorney's fees,
in case it shall be necessary to file or defend an action arising out of the construction,
location or existence of the Temporary Encroachment.
It is further expressly understood and agreed that nothing herein contained

construction of any encroachment other than that specified herein and to the limited
extent specified herein, nor to permit the maintenance and construction of any
encroachment by anyone other than the Grantee.
It is further expressly understood and agreed that the Grantee agrees to

AGENDA ITEM J
ITEM: An Ordinance to Accept and Appropriate Funds from the Virginia Department of
Emergency Management for the Purchase of Two Antennas
MEETING DATE: January 15, 2019
• Background: The City has been awarded $147,500 from the Virginia Department
of Emergency Management (VDEM) from the FY 2018 Homeland Security Grant
Program. This is a federal grant from the U.S. Department of Homeland Security that is
passed through VDEM. The grant's purpose is to purchase two Sky Master down link
receiver antennas to be installed within the Hampton Roads geographic area. The
installation of these antennas will enable aerial coverage of the majority of Hampton
Roads and will be tied to the core capability of coordination with local Emergency
Operation Centers and mobile command posts, and help incorporate the National Incident
Management System in a timely manner after a disaster.
• Considerations: The total grant amount is $147,500, and there is no local match
required. The program period is October 1, 2018 to March 31, 2020 for obligation of funds.
• Public Information: Normal Council agenda process.
• Recommendations: Adopt the attached ordinance.

AGENDA ITEM J
ITEM: An Ordinance to Accept and Appropriate Grant Funds for School Violence
Prevention
MEETING DATE: January 15, 2019
• Background: The School Violence Prevention Program (SVPP) is a grant from
the United States Department of Justice, Office of Community Oriented Policing
Services. The SVPP grant is designed to provide funds to states, local governments,
and Native American tribes to improve security in schools. Because of this stipulation,
the City's application for the SVPP was submitted by the Virginia Beach Police
Department on behalf of the Virginia Beach City Public Schools (VBCPS). Therefore,
the VBCPS will be the subrecipient of the City's SVPP award.
Items funded through the SVPP include 50 computers, 50 access control points, and
100 surveillance cameras. These items will be placed in 50 of VBCPS's 54 elementary
schools. The other four schools already have these features. This equipment will
provide each school with an additional controlled access point, two additional video
surveillance cameras, and a computer with the hardware capabilities to operate the full
functionality of the integrated system.
• Considerations: As required by the Department of Justice, the SVPP grant
provides the City with $386,250 in federal funding. This money will be transferred to
VBCPS through the attached ordinance. The grant also requires a local match of
$128,750. The local match will be identified and funded from within the VBCPS' existing
FY 2018-19 Operating Budget.
Prompt action is required because the City currently faces a deadline of January 31 ,
2019 from the United States Department of Justice to accept these funds.

AGENDA ITEM 1
ITEM: An Ordinance to Appropriate Funds from the Commonwealth and to Authorize
Payment of Such Funds to the City of Virginia Beach Development Authority
MEETING DATE: January 15, 2019
• Background: The Virginia Commonwealth Development Opportunity Fund is a
"deal-closing" fund that may be employed at the Governor's discretion to secure a
company location or expansion in Virginia. Management Services Group, Inc, ("MSG")
parent company of Global Technical Systems ("GTS"), is a Virginia Beach-based
company providing high tech engineering products and product-based services. In 2017,
MSG announced its decision to locate its North American headquarters and
manufacturing operations in Virginia Beach. The project should create 1,100 new jobs
with an investment of $54.7 million over a 36-month period. The Development
Opportunity Fund approved a $1,800,000 incentive award to secure the project for
Virginia Beach.
• Considerations: The Development Opportunity Funds provides funds to the
locality, and the locality provides the funds to the local development authority. The
attached ordinance appropriates the $1,800,000 award from the State to the Department
of Economic Development. The ordinance further authorizes the Department to pay the
funds to the City of Virginia Beach Development Authority to provide the Commonwealth
Development Opportunity Fund incentive award.
The $1 ,800,000 payment has been received by the City and is awaiting appropriation.
Once appropriated, the funds will be forwarded to the Virginia Beach Development
Authority.

CITY OF VIRGINIA BEACH
AGENDA ITEM J
ITEM: An Ordinance to Transfer Funds for Lifeguard Services and to Authorize the City
Manager to Execute a Contract for Oceanfront Lifeguard Services
MEETING DATE: January 15, 2019
• Background: Since 1929, the City of Virginia Beach has relied on private
contractors to provide lifeguard services in the Resort Area, Croatan and 57th Street
Beaches. The City specifies minimum standards of service to be provided by the
contractor. These standards include minimum requirements for staffing, training, and
equipment including licensure as an EMS agency. The contract with the City's longtime
vendor, Virginia Beach Lifesaving Service (VBLS), expired October 31 , 2018.
The City's Purchasing Division issued a new RFP for services to begin in May 2019.
VBLS was the only bidder to respond. As part of the negotiation process, bids were
requested for a five-season term and a three-season term. Both bids included options
for three extensions. Either option includes a 3% annual price escalation.
• Considerations: VBLS is the only commercial lifeguard company that has
demonstrated the required capability and skill to provide services at the Oceanfront over
the last three contract cycles. They have a good management team and have provided
effective water rescue and basic life support services during its most recent seven-year
contract.
The proposed base annual cost for the new contract is $1,790,000 for a five-season
term. A three-season term base annual cost would be $1 ,890,000 in the first year.
Either approach includes the option for three one-year extensions. An annual 3%
escalation clause is also included for either term. At the December 11, 2018 Informal
Session, the Council was briefed on the proposed contract, and the staff recommended
pursuing a five-season term.
A municipal service could be provided at a similar annual cost, but a significant start up
expense would be incurred. While citizens and visitors alike have been well served by
the current lifeguarding system, contractual arrangements offer limited room for growth
or flexibility. Any emerging changes in service requirements (i.e., expanded hours or
beach areas) can only be supported if the contractor is willing to negotiate a change. On
the other hand, municipal resources can be reallocated or modified based on emergent
requirements and competing community needs.
The attached ordinance transfers funds sufficient to make the initial contract payment,
and it authorizes the City Manager or designee to execute the contract with VBLS. With
the approval of this item, the City will pursue the five-season contract structure. If this
item is approved the remaining balance in the General Fund Reserve for Contingencies
will be $1,138,161.
■ Alternatives: The contract can be awarded for either a three-year or five-year
term. The longer term continues the policy of a long term agreement with a proven
vendor. It also comes with a lower cost than the shorter term, saving $100,000 annually
over the life of the contract. The primary disadvantage of the longer term is that it limits
the City's ability to meet emergent needs and changing public expectations for a
prolonged period.
• Public Information: Normal Council Agenda process. This contract and the
three-year and five-year options were briefed to the Council at the Informal Session on
December 11, 2018.
• Recommendations: Adopt the attached ordinance.

CITY OF VIRGINIA BEACH
AGENDA ITEM
ITEM: WPL HOMES, INC. [Applicant] JO STALLARD WOOLLING HODGES
[Property Owner] Subdivision Variance (4.1 (m)(1) of the Subdivision
Regulations) at the property located at 524 25th Street (GPIN 2417994594),
COUNCIL DISTRICT — BEACH.
MEETING DATE: January 15, 2019
• Background:
The 11 ,400 square-foot site consists of two legally non-conforming lots that are 30
feet wide by 190-feet long, running north to south from 25th Street to 24th 1/2 Street.
When combined, the parcels total 60 feet of frontage on 25th Street. The site is
developed with a single-family house fronting 25th Street.
The applicant desires to re-subdivide the property and create two parcels. One
parcel will contain the existing single-family dwelling and the other lot will contain
two new single-family dwellings. Proposed Lot 22A, where the existing home is
located, will be accessed along 25th Street and will meet all dimensional
requirements of the Zoning Ordinance. Proposed Lot 24A, fronting the 24th 1/2
Street alley rather than a public street as required, will have the two new single-
family dwellings. The Old Beach Overlay District permits the construction of two
single-family dwellings (a principal and an ancillary dwelling) on one lot on
properties zoned A-12 Apartment District, provided that the lot is located along a
standard public street or alley.
A standard width alley is a minimum of 24 feet. As the lot with the two dwellings
will front a substandard width alley of 20 feet, a Subdivision Variance is requested.
In addition, the applicant intends to pursue a rear setback variance from the Board
of Zoning Appeals for the ancillary dwelling proposed on Lot 24A.
• Considerations:
The proposed re-subdivision is compatible with the land use policies for the Old
Beach Overlay District as the proposed configuration of the site, architectural
massing and materials, parking, landscaping and streetscape improvements are
in alignment with the Old Beach Design Guidelines. The Guidelines, which were
adopted as part of the Comprehensive Plan's Reference Handbook, include design
recommendations for this area and address setbacks, massing, materials, parking,
and landscaping.
WPL Homes, Inc.

■ Recommendations:
City Staff recommends approval of this request. The Planning Commission placed
this item on the Consent Agenda, passing a motion by a recorded vote of 10-0, to
recommend approval of this request.
1. When the site is developed, it shall be in substantial conformance with the
submitted site layout exhibit entitled, "SITE IMPROVEMENT PLAN," prepared
by WPL, and dated 08/08/2018, which has been exhibited to the Virginia Beach
City Council and is on file in the Department of Planning and Community
Development.
2. The exterior of the proposed building shall substantially adhere in appearance,
size and materials to the elevations entitled, "Elevations, #524 25th Street Unit
A", prepared by Ocean Bay Homes, and dated 03/10/18, and "Elevations, 524
25th Street Unit B," prepared by Ocean Bay Homes, and dated 10/26/2018,
which have been exhibited to the Virginia Beach City Council and are on file in
the Department of Planning and Community Development.
3. A Landscape Plan shall be submitted at the time of final site plan review
reflective of the plant material depicted on submitted Landscape Plan entitled,
"Planting Plan," prepared by WPL, and dated 08/08/2018, which has been
exhibited to the Virginia Beach City Council and is on file in the Department of
Planning and Community Development.
4. Proposed Lot 22A, fronting 25th Street, shall only be developed with one single-
family dwelling.

Background and Summary of Proposal
• At the request of the applicant,the Planning Commission deferred this application at the November 14, 2018
public hearing.
• The 11,400 square-foot site consists of two legally non-conforming lots that are 30 feet wide by 190-feet long,
running north to south from 25th Street to 24th y2 Street. When combined,the parcels total 60 feet of frontage
on 25th Street. The site is developed with a single-family house fronting 25th Street.
• The applicant desires to re-subdivide the property and create two parcels with an east to west orientation. One
parcel will contain the existing single-family dwelling and the other lot will contain two new single-family
dwellings. Proposed Lot 22A,where the existing home is located,will be accessed along 25th Street and will
meet all dimensional requirements of the Zoning Ordinance. Proposed Lot 24A,fronting the 24th 1/2 Street alley
rather than a public street as required,will have the two new single-family dwellings. The Old Beach Overlay
District permits the construction of two single-family dwellings (a principal and an ancillary dwelling)on one lot
on properties zoned A-12 Apartment District, provided that the lot is located along a standard public street.
• As the lot with the two dwellings will be along a substandard width alley, a Subdivision Variance is requested.
Section 4.1 (m)(1) of the Subdivision Regulations requires lots to have access from a standard width road or
alley. An alley must have a minimum width of 24 feet. As the 24th 1/2 Street right-of-way is only 20 feet wide,a
Subdivision Variance is required.
• This request is similar to a Subdivision Variance application approved by the City Council in 2013 on the adjacent
property to the east,where two lots were created with a total of three dwellings. Similarly, an existing home
remained on the lot along 251h Street and two new dwellings were constructed on a separate lot with access
along the alley.

• On proposed Lot 24A, and mimicking the vehicular access depicted above on the left,two driveways are
proposed to be connected to the alley.Brick pavers are proposed as runners for the driveway of the ancillary, or
northern, dwelling.

• The principal dwelling is proposed with 2,040 square feet and is located closest to the alley. The ancillary
dwelling is proposed with 1,670 square feet and is setback approximately 30 feet behind the back of the
principal dwelling. Two parking spaces are provided for each dwelling.
• The submitted elevations of the new dwellings depict coastal cottage style houses with front porches. The
exterior materials are proposed as brick,cement fiber board (HardiePlank) siding and vinyl board and batten
siding in the gables. The roof is designed with architectural asphalt shingles and standing seam metal accents.
• The Landscape Plan depicts extensive foundation plantings and planting beds. The Landscape Plan will be
reviewed during the site plan submission to ensure that all planting requirements are met.
• Standard right-of-way improvements will be required along 24th 1/2 Street with the development of this
property. These improvements include pavement widening and curbing for an ultimate 18-foot typical section.
In order to complete these improvements, a two-foot right-of-way dedication will be required along 24th %2
Street,which will accommodate the relocation of power pole#KN35 behind the curb line. The dedication is
depicted on the plan and has been accommodated in the site design.
• The applicant intends to pursue a rear setback variance from the Board of Zoning Appeals for the ancillary
dwelling proposed on Lot 24A.

Evaluation and Recommendation
Section 9.3 of the Subdivision Regulations states:
No variance shall be authorized by the Council unless it finds that:
A. Strict application of the ordinance would produce undue hardship.
B. The authorization of the variance will not be of substantial detriment to adjacent property, and
the character of the neighborhood will not be adversely affected.
C. The problem involved is not of so general or recurring a nature as to make reasonably practicable
the formulation of general regulations to be adopted as an amendment to the ordinance.
D. The hardship is created by the physical character of the property, including dimensions and topography,
or by other extraordinary situation or condition of such property,or by the use or development of
property immediately adjacent thereto. Personal or self-inflicted hardship shall not be considered as
grounds for the issuance of a variance.
E. The hardship is created by the requirements of the zoning district in which the property is located at
the time the variance is authorized whenever such variance pertains to provisions of the zoning
ordinance incorporated by reference in this ordinance.
The proposed re-subdivision to construct two new single-family dwellings on the site,for a total of three single-family
dwellings is, in Staff's view, compatible with the land use policies for the Old Beach Overlay District as the proposed
configuration of the site, architectural massing and materials, parking, landscaping and streetscape improvements are in
alignment with the Old Beach Design Guidelines. The Guidelines,which were adopted as part of the Comprehensive
Plan's Reference Handbook, include design recommendations for this area and address setbacks, massing, materials,
parking, and landscaping. Below is a brief evaluation of the applicable Design Guidelines.
Site Layout & Landscaping
The Guidelines recommend that building footprints minimize impervious cover and preserve open space;that driveways
be designed to complement a home's visual appearance using pervious paving material to assist with drainage; and,that
the proposed layout places the principal dwelling close to the street and be separated by at least 30 feet from the
ancillary dwelling. In Staff's view,these Guidelines are met as the proposed lot coverage is just under 30%,which is less
than the lot coverage on the parcel to the east and is under the 40%maximum of the Old Beach Overlay District. A large
portion of the driveway for the ancillary dwelling is depicted on the plan as brick runners,which minimizes impervious
cover; and a detailed Landscape Plan depicts trees and shrubs throughout the site,which enhances aesthetics and can
aid in stormwater infiltration. Subject to the approval of a Board of Zoning Appeals variance to the rear setback for the
ancillary dwelling,the homes will be separated by a distance of approximately 31 feet,thereby addressing this
Guideline.
Architectural Style& Massing
The Guidelines recommend that quality architectural elements and details be incorporated into home design to
maintain a residential scale and massing, and to provide unique character. Rooflines should be designed to be low,
interesting and incorporate dormers and variations.The Guidelines encourage the incorporation of porches to provide a
presence and orientation to the street and to encourage pedestrian interaction;and that at least 35% of the uppermost
story of a dwelling be setback three feet from the wall plane directly below it. This concept discourages a stacked box
design.The proposed elevations appear to meet the goals of these Guidelines,as the dwellings' architecture is reflective
of a coastal cottage with high quality building materials,front porches, projections, recessed garages and a step back of
the upper story of the dwellings.
WPL Homes, Inc.
Agenda Item D4
Page 4
Lot Coverage and Ratio of Principal&Ancillary Dwellings
The Guidelines recommend that lots be developed with a lot coverage of no more than 40%. As lot coverage is
proposed as 29.9%,this Guideline is met. Additionally,the dwelling footprint ratio proposed meets the Zoning
Ordinance requirement that the when two homes are developed on one lot,the total lot coverage divided between the
principal and ancillary dwellings be at a ratio of 55%to 45%, respectively. However,the Guidelines,which were not
updated when the Old Beach Overlay was amended in 2013, recommend that this ratio be 60%to 40%. While it is Staff's
preference that the 60/40 ratio be implemented so as to create a greater distinction between a principal and ancillary
dwelling,the applicant's proposal with a ratio of 55% and 45%meets the minimum standard.
As this proposal meets the intent of the Old Beach Guidelines, as noted above, Staff recommends approval of the
request subject to the conditions below.
Recommended Conditions
1. When the site is developed, it shall be in substantial conformance with the submitted site layout exhibit
entitled, "SITE IMPROVEMENT PLAN," prepared by WPL,and dated 08/08/2018,which has been exhibited to
the Virginia Beach City Council and is on file in the Department of Planning and Community Development.
2. The exterior of the proposed building shall substantially adhere in appearance,size and materials to the
elevations entitled, "Elevations,#524 25th Street Unit A", prepared by Ocean Bay Homes,and dated
03/10/18,and "Elevations, 524 25th Street Unit B," prepared by Ocean Bay Homes,and dated 10/26/2018,
which have been exhibited to the Virginia Beach City Council and are on file in the Department of Planning
and Community Development.
3. A Landscape Plan shall be submitted at the time of final site plan review reflective of the plant material
depicted on submitted Landscape Plan entitled, "Planting Plan," prepared by WPL,and dated 08/08/2018,
which has been exhibited to the Virginia Beach City Council and is on file in the Department of Planning and
Community Development.
4. Proposed Lot 22A,fronting 25th Street,shall only be developed with one single-family dwelling.
Further conditions may be required during the administration of applicable City Ordinances and Standards.Any site plan submitted
with this application may require revision during detailed site plan review to meet all applicable City Codes and Standards.All
applicable permits required by the City Code, including those administered by the Department of Planning/Development Services
Center and Department of Planning/Permits and Inspections Division, and the issuance of a Certificate of Occupancy, are required
before any uses allowed by this Use Permit are valid.
The applicant is encouraged to contact and work with the Crime Prevention Office within the Police Department for crime prevention
techniques and Crime Prevention Through Environmental Design(CPTED)concepts and strategies as they pertain to this site.
Comprehensive Plan Recommendations
This site is located within the Resort Area Strategic Growth Area (SGA). The Resort Area Strategic Action Plan, adopted in
2008, is the master plan prepared for this SGA and identifies the potential for three distinct yet complementary districts:
Laskin Gateway,Central Beach and Rudee Marina.The Plan provides a vision for enhancing the energy at the beach into
these three areas by developing synergies between the cultural and commercial life,the recreational and the natural
life, and an overall focus of drawing residents and visitors into the area.
The site is also located within the Old Beach Overlay District. The goal of the Old Beach District is to preserve and
enhance the historic status of the Old Beach Neighborhood as one of the first residential areas within the Oceanfront
WPL Homes, Inc.
Agenda Item D4
Page 5
Resort Area by providing opportunities for both new and redeveloped resort residential development. The District
encourages single-family cottage-style homes and compatible multi-family residential dwellings.
Natural and Cultural Resources Impacts
The site is located in the Chesapeake Bay watershed. There does not appear to be any significant natural or cultural
features associated with the site.

Subdivision Variance (Section 4.1 (m)(1) of the Subdivision Regulations)
524 25th Street
District—Beach
December 12th, 2018
CONSENT
Ms. Oliver: The next matter is agenda item D4 and this is an application for a Subdivision
Variance to Section 4.1 (m)(1) of the Subdivision Regulations on property located
at 524 25th street and located in the Beach District, is there a representative?
Mr. Bourdon: Thank you again Mrs. Oliver, Mr. Chairman, members of the Commission, for the
record Eddie Bourdon, Virginia Beach Attorney representing WPL Homes, Inc.
and we agree with all of the four conditions set forth in staffs evaluation. We
appreciate staffs work on the application and appreciate very much being on the
consent agenda, thank you.
Ms. Oliver: Thank you. Is there any opposition to this application being placed on the consent
agenda, hearing none, the chairman is asked Commissioner Hodgson to read this
into the record please.
Mr. Hodgson: Thank you Ms. Oliver. The applicant desires to re-subdivide the property and
create two parcels with an east to west orientation. One parcel will contain the
existing single-family dwelling and the other lot will contain two new single-
1
family dwellings. Proposed Lot 22A, where the existing home is located, will be
accessed along 25th Street and will meet all dimensional requirements of the
Zoning Ordinance. Proposed Lot 24A, fronting 24th 1/2 Street alley rather than a
public street as required, will have the two new single-family dwellings. The Old
Beach Overlay District permits the construction of two single-family dwellings (a
principal and an auxiliary dwelling) on one lot on properties zoned A-12
Apartment District, provided that the lot is located along a standard public street.
As the lot with the two dwellings will be along a substandard width alley, a
Subdivision Variance is requested. This request is similar to a Subdivision
Variance for an application that was located adjacent, just to the east of this
property, and as this proposal meets the intent of the Old Beach Design
Guidelines, Staff recommends approval. The Planning Commission is in
agreement and we placed it on a consent agenda.
Ms. Oliver: Thank you. Mr. Chairman that was the last item on the consent agenda and I
would like to move to approve consent agenda items number one, four, six, seven,
D2 and D4 to be approved.
Mr. Thornton: Thank you, I have a motion to approve the items on the consent agenda, do I have
a second, Mr. Ripley?
Mr. Horsley: I will second.
Mr. Thornton: Second by Mr. Horsley.
Mr. Ripley: I have a couple of disclosures on that abstention if you don't mind Mr. Chairman.
First disclosure and these would disclose because I will be voting on these matters
2
okay, the first one is item number seven, I own the property across the street and I
just want to disclose that, although, I have no interest in this property or any
financial ventures, I do want that to be known. Also item number D4, the
applicant has issued his listed Towne Bank as the lender, I am disclosing that I am
a member of the Towne Bank Advisory Board in Chesapeake and I have a letter
on file with the clerk that stating and Towne Bank is not the applicant and I have
no interest and it has no interest that I know having this, at least I don't and since
the Planning Commission has recommendation and advisory council, does not
make the final decision. I disclose I will be voting on this matter as well and I do
want to abstain on item D2 which is the ordinance with the B-4K, I have owned
property in this District, it affects the property I owned, I don't necessarily agree
with the ordinance,but I am abstaining on voting.
Mr. Thornton: And I need to not vote on, no I am sorry I need to disclose in item seven, the
company that I work for is handling the brokerage of that, I have no financial
interest in it and I will be voting on it, but I did want to disclose that. Can we
have a motion and a second, any other conflicts we need to disclose?
Ms. Sandloop:Vote is open. By vote of 10-0, items one, four, six, seven, D2, and D4 have been
approved by consent with Commissioner Ripley abstaining from item D2.

AGENDA ITEM f
ITEM: RAW ENTERPRISES, INC. & BRYAN & JUNE RAEHL [Applicant] RUBY T.
ARMENIOX; BRYAN & JUNE RAEHL [Property Owners] Subdivision
Variance at the property located on the south side of Gum Bridge Road,
west of Dawley Road (GPINs 2411158414, 2411156591, 2411155577,
2411154663, 2411251946, 2411260050, 2411159357), COUNCIL DISTRICT —
PRINCESS ANNE.
MEETING DATE: January 15, 2019
• Background:
Prior to 1970, the 19.44 acres subject to this application, as well as other land
along the southside of Gum Bridge Road, were under common ownership. Upon
the owner's death in 1970, a last will and testament was executed that distributed
the land to 13 heirs and their spouses. A partition plat was recorded in 1971, which
divided the land amongst the heirs, but without the benefit of a review by the
Planning Department. As such, the partition plat, while recorded, did not meet the
requirements to properly subdivide the property that was zoned A-R Agricultural
Restricted District.
At the time the partition plat was recorded in 1971, Lots 2, 3, 4 and 5 met both lot
area and lot area requirements for the A-R District; however, Lot 1 was deficient in
lot width and Lots A and B were deficient in both lot area and lot width. Under
today's standards for the creation of lots in the Agricultural District, a Subdivision
Variance to lot width is necessary for Lots 2, 3, 4 and 5. The applicant also
proposes to consolidate Lots 1 , A, and B into one parcel, thereby creating
proposed Lot 1-A, which will meet all required dimensional requirements. In short,
the seven lots depicted on the partition plat will be consolidated into five lots.
Subject to City Council's approval of the Subdivision Variance to lot width for
proposed Lots 2, 3, 4 and 5, a plat depicting the layout will be legally recorded with
the Clerk of Court.
• Considerations:
It was not uncommon from the 1950s to the mid-1970s to have land improperly
subdivided by deed or by a partition plat in order to fulfill the terms of a will. The
seven parcels that exist today each have separate GPINs and have been taxed by
the City of Virginia Beach for the past 47 years. This request will lead to the
reduction of parcels from seven to five. The stormwater strategy for development
of future single-family homes will be addressed during the single-family site plan
review process.

There was one speaker in opposition at the Planning Commission public hearing
who noted concerns about flooding and his perception of the profusion of
development in the southern part of Virginia Beach. Further details pertaining to
the request, as well as Staff's evaluation, are provided in the attached Staff report.
• Recommendations:

Background and Summary of Proposal
• Prior to 1970, the 19.44 acres subject to this application, as well as other land along the southside of Gum Bridge
Road,was under the common ownership of James T.Tatem. Upon his death in 1970, a last will and testament
was executed that distributed the land to 13 heirs and their spouses.
• A partition plat (Map Book 85, Page 23) was recorded in 1971, which devised the land amongst the heirs, but
without the benefit of a review by the Planning Department. As such, the partition plat,while recorded, did not
meet the requirements to properly subdivide the property.
• At the time the partition plat was recorded, the property was zoned A-R Agricultural Restricted District. Lots 2,
3, 4 and 5 met both lot area and lot area requirements; however, Lot 1 was deficient in lot width and Lots A and
B were deficient in both lot area and lot width.

• A single-family dwelling does exist on Lot 5. Upon submission of a single-family site plan to the Planning
Department, it was discovered that the property had never been legally subdivided. As depicted below in the
table, a Subdivision Variance is requested to lot width for Lots 2, 3,4 and 5. Lots A and B will be vacated,
providing proposed Lot 1-A with sufficient lot width.

Evaluation and Recommendation
Section 9.3 of the Subdivision Regulations states:
No variance shall be authorized by the Council unless it finds that:
A. Strict application of the ordinance would produce undue hardship.
B. The authorization of the variance will not be of substantial detriment to adjacent property, and the
character of the neighborhood will not be adversely affected.
C. The problem involved is not of so general or recurring a nature as to make reasonably practicable the
formulation of general regulations to be adopted as an amendment to the ordinance.
D. The hardship is created by the physical character of the property, including dimensions and topography,
or by other extraordinary situation or condition of such property, or by the use or development of
property immediately adjacent thereto. Personal or self-inflicted hardship shall not be considered as
grounds for the issuance of a variance.
RAW Enterprises, Inc.& Bryan &June Raehl
Agenda Item 5
Page 3
E. The hardship is created by the requirements of the zoning district in which the property is located at the
time the variance is authorized whenever such variance pertains to provisions of the Zoning Ordinance
incorporated by reference in this ordinance.
This proposed request for a Subdivision Variance to lot width has similar circumstances that Staff has encountered over
the years. It was not uncommon from the 1950s to the mid-1970s to have land improperly subdivided by deed or by a
partition plat in order to fulfill the terms of a will. This request in particular will lead to the reduction in the number of
parcels from seven to five, all of which with separate GPINs and have been taxed by the City of Virginia Beach for the
past 47 years.
Based on the considerations above, Staff recommends approval of this request subject to the conditions below.
Recommended Conditions
1. When subdivided, the property shall be developed as shown on the submitted subdivision exhibit entitled
"SUBDIVISION EXHIBIT OF LOTS 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, A&B as shown on PARTITION OF PROPERTY OF J.T.TATEM ESTATE,
ET AL(M.B. 85, P. 23)," dated 08/24/2018, and prepared by Fox Land Surveying., a copy of which has been
exhibited to the Virginia Beach City Council and is on file with the Virginia Beach Department of Planning and
Community Development.
2. When Lots 1-A, 2, 3 and 4 are developed, the residential dwellings constructed shall have architectural features,
and appearance of like quality and character of the home depicted on page 7 of this report entitled "Proposed
Elevations," which has been exhibited to the Virginia Beach City Council and is on file with the Virginia Beach
Department of Planning and Community Development.
3. The residential dwelling constructed on Lots 1-A, 2 3 and 4 shall have its lowest finished floor at an elevation at
least three (3) feet above the Base Flood Elevation.
4. Prior to obtaining a building permit, Lots 1-A, 2, 3 and 4 shall obtain approval from the Virginia Beach Health
Department for private well and septic facilities.
Comprehensive Plan Recommendations
The Comprehensive Plan recognizes this property as being within the "Rural Area." Guiding principles have been
established in the Comprehensive Plan to preserve the rural character of the area through planning objectives that
emphasize its agricultural and environmental economic value, in an effort to preserve the area for future generations.
The Plan's principles include preserving and promoting a vibrant agricultural economy, reinforcing rural heritage and
way of life,sustaining natural resources for future generations and managing rural area development and design. (p.
1.127 - 1.128)
Natural and Cultural Resources Impacts
The site is located in the Southern Rivers Watershed. Drainage in the Southern Rivers watershed is highly impacted by
the presence of high ground water, poorly draining soils, and high water surface elevations in downstream receiving
waters.The site is currently under cultivation. There do not appear to be any significant natural or cultural features
associated with the site.

RAW Enterprises, Inc.
Subdivision Variance (Section 4.4(b) of the Subdivision Regulations)
South side of Gum Bridge Road, West of Dawley Road
District—Princess Anne
December 12th, 2018
APPROVED
Ms. Sandloop: The next item of business is Agenda Item number five RAW Enterprises
Incorporated which is an application for a Subdivision Variance Section 4.4 (b) of
the Subdivision Regulation on property located at the south side of Gum Bridge
Road, west of Dawley Road, located in the Princess Anne District.
Mr. Bourdon: Mr. Chairman, members of the commission for the record Eddie Bourdon,
Virginia Beach attorney representing the applicant. I will be brief as this matter
was on the Consent Agenda. Mr. McNamara in his write-up and in his
description this morning, I think did a very thorough job. These lots are part of a
larger, I apologize, I don't have copies for everybody, larger partition plat that has
a total of 26 lots on it and you can see parts of all of them are on this, here on the
south side and here on the north side of Gum Bridge Road. In your write up on
page 3 of this agenda item five, you can see the composite map with all the
houses, there are nine houses, excuse me, nine lots with eight houses on the north
1
side created by the same plat and there are a total of six or seven houses on the
lots that are located on the south side, all of which to my knowledge and I am
pretty confident that I am correct in this, have been built without having these lots
formally recognized by a Subdivision Variance because they were all created by
this 1971 partition plat that was recorded and the city has taxed these as separate
lots, separate GPINs since we started using GPINs for all these going on 50 years.
So the applicant actually got plan approval and constructed a house on lot five and
then came in to do these other three lots and then the fourth one with the two
trailers sites out front came into play with dealing with the sellers and the sellers
attorney so what we are doing is simply cleaning up lots that have existed for
going on 50 years and you get to see what the houses are going to look like unlike
the other I believe it's about 14 houses that are on other lots out here on the same
plat that have again, never been through this process. We have also agreed to the
one foot additional freeboard which I think is also important given the elevated
concerns about flooding and subsidence in the City so Staff, staff has indicated we
clean up these kind of situations, this has a larger number of them than what we
normally would see but this is just housekeeping as far as I am concerned. I
don't, not really sure what the opposition is about but I will be appreciate the
opportunity to speak in rebuttal.
Mr. Thornton: Any questions for Mr. Bourdon?Thank you.
Ms. Sandloop:Mr. Chair we have one speaker. Mark Johnson.
Mr. Johnson: Hello again.
2
Mr. Thornton: Welcome.
Mr. Johnson: Thank you.
Mr. Thornton: Name for the record.
Mr. Johnson: Mark Johnson.
Mr. Thornton: Thank you.
Mr. Johnson: Well, I have a small farm on Shipps Cabin which is east of this particular
development and you know normally I wouldn't be opposed to something like
this but as I stood here last month and we came up against the Harvest Farm
thing, there was a lot of talk about you know the flooding, the science that hasn't
been reported yet, the things that we are waiting on and you guys are actually
coached the applicant to pull his application until such science is available. So
what I am looking at is Gum Bridge and Dawley are extremely low. I drove down
the road yesterday and those fields that this plat is or these plats are slated for
were still holding water. The ditches on Gum Bridge and Dawley are full of water
and Back Bay is dry. The water's gone, so there is the issue of that City Council
was running on this whole time about cleaning the ditches, you know, storm
drains updating the thing so my fear is that even though this is not on the scale of
what Harvest Farms is, it still in its minuteness these developers building three,
four, five, six homes are going to kind of like create dots in the Southern
watershed and the Southern watershed one of these days is going to need with the
flooding and the Dewberry that we saw coming in, somebody is going to try to
push it to be storm, I mean, sewers and water which would be the end of the
3
southern way of life that we all know. So I would caution given the sensitivity of
the matter now that we don't know what we don't know about flooding that things
like this be put aside until we do have the science, three foot elevation above
flood according to Dewberry what we saw on the presentation is going to show
that that's not going to be enough. My farm on Shipps Cabin is three feet above
flood and these last two floods of last season came right up to the steps and
eventually that's going to be to the west of Princess Anne Road. So I am asking
Planning Staff and when considering these things in the future to look really hard
at what's going on, these are five more septic systems, five more wells capable
when flooded by Back Bay could contribute more to the biologic problem that we
are having and the southern watershed cannot handle it so, I am kind of like the
proponent for save the environment, stop Back Bay West Neck Creek, North
Landing River and Currituck's land from being Virginia Beach's toilet, thanks.
Mr. Thornton: Thank you, any questions of the speaker, he left but we can call him back, thank
you. No more speakers, Mr. Bourdon.
Mr. Bourdon: Frankly, I never thought I see existing lots that are going on 40 some years in the
existence been taxed and 14 of them with houses on it, none of which had the
Subdivision Variances that this body is routinely granted for good reason. This is
not new development. These are not new lots and there is no evidence that any
dwellings in this area, they are built with the three foot three board above flood
elevation, have ever had any water in them and I just, I understand the concern if
we are talking about creating new lots, it wouldn't be here and we don't allow
new lots down here without a Use Permit which is a whole another story, but
4
these are long existing, long tax lots, platted and recognized but there is not a
signature from the finding Director in 1971 on the plat. There were lawyers
involved in it, there were lawyers signatures on the plat. All these properties were
divided by a family with long history in Princess Anne County. It's just, it's a
cleanup and again it allows, I wouldn't be standing here if you are talking about
creating new lots or talking about basically telling someone who pay taxes on lots
for all these years and all of a sudden we are going to take it away from you
because of fear and you know I think we have to be more reasonable than that and
all the conditions that are recommended are acceptable to the applicant. In fact,
one of these has a house on it on top of that, so we are going to tell them, they
guess what, you have a house, you cannot sell or something, appreciate your
consideration, while thinking about it, hope everybody has a wonderful holiday,
Chairman Thornton, former Chairman Hodgson, Commissioner Kwasny, the City
of Virginia Beach is blessed to have people of your caliber who are willing to
commit the amount of time and energy that it takes to do this job as thoroughly as
all of you do it and having set through multiple briefings about short-term rentals,
you know, you guys saints, thank you for all your service.
Mr. Thornton: Thank you Mr. Bourdon. With that and no more speakers, we will close the
public hearing and start dialogue amongst ourselves.
Mr. Horsley: Mr. chairman if I might interject this is what I call the housekeeping thing that
years and years and years ago lots were platted and may not have been done
exactly right but we have rectified that as they come for development, and like
Mr. Bourdon said these people have been paying taxes on these residential lots for
5
all these years and I don't have a problem with it. We have gone from seven
potential dwellings to five and I think that helps the situation some so, I don't
have a problem with cleaning up this application and I move for approval.
Mr. Thornton: We have a motion for approval, can I have a second?
Ms. Kwasny: Bob, can I say something?
Mr. Thornton: Absolutely.
Ms. Kwasny: So I think the complexity of the cleanup, this kind of complex cleanup is going to
be something that we see more of and I think that Mr. Johnson's concerns are
likely to come in front of us again and again as we talk about building in southern
area of the City and so I hope that they are listened to with all due seriousness that
they deserve in relation to some of the issues he mentions flooding for instance
and the quality of, water quality in Back Bay and how we develop going forward
in relation to some of the studies we don't get how that being said cleanup likes
this when somebody has been paying taxes on lands and we are able to bring
down the density and allow them to go ahead and build in the way that they
wanted and it isn't rezoning, I would second the motion.
Mr. Thornton: Okay, we have a motion and a second.
Ms. Sandloop:Vote is open. By vote of 11-0 agenda item number five has been approved.

AGENDA ITEM
ITEM: SUBURBAN CAPITAL, INC. [Applicant] HYATT PLACE PEMBROKE, LLC
[Property Owner] Special Exemption for Alternative Compliance
(Freestanding Sign & Building Sign) at the property located at 281
Independence Boulevard (GPIN 1477353753), COUNCIL DISTRICT —
BAYSIDE.
MEETING DATE: January 15, 2019
• Background:
This request is two-fold: a 12-foot tall freestanding sign along Broad Street and a
126 square foot building sign that exceeds the 100 square foot size limit.
Specifically, the applicant desires to install a freestanding sign for a hotel under
construction within the Central Business Core District (CBCD). Section 2210 of the
Zoning Ordinance requires that freestanding signs within the CBCD are allowed
but only with approval from the City Council of a Special Exception for Alternative
Compliance.
The applicant is also requesting a Special Exception for Alternative Compliance
for the installation of a 126 square-foot building sign on the hotel's Independence
Boulevard facade. The applicant considers the extra 26 square feet necessary to
allow for proper letter spacing and to align with the decorative facade treatment
beneath it.
• Considerations:
The freestanding sign will be oriented perpendicular to Board Street so as to
reduce the visibility of the illuminated letters from the multifamily dwellings located
along Board Street, north of the site. The building sign appears to be appropriately
scaled to the building's proportions. Both signs were reviewed by the Central
Business District Association's Design Review Committee on January 11, 2018,
and were deemed compliant with the applicable Central Business Core Design
Guidelines.
The Planning Commission had concerns that freestanding signs in general
negatively impact the urban streetscape desired in the Central Business Core
District. However, since the sign is proposed along Broad Street rather than
Independence Boulevard, and the applicant indicated a willingness to reduce the
height from 12 feet to 8 feet, the Planning Commission did vote to recommend
approval subject to a modified Condition 2, reflected below as underlined text.
Suburban Capital, Inc.
Page 2 of 2
Other than the Commission's noted concern, Staff is unaware of any opposition to
these requests.
• 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.
1 . The building crown sign shall be constructed in substantial conformance with the
submitted exhibit entitled "Hyatt Place Design Drawing 4 of 6, 279 Independence
Boulevard, Virginia Beach, VA," dated March 09, 2018, and prepared by Coast
Sign Incorporated. Said exhibit has been exhibited to the Virginia Beach City
Council and is on file with the Department of Planning and Community
Development.
2. The freestanding sign shall be constructed in substantial conformance with the
submitted exhibit entitled "Hyatt Place Drawing 6 of 6, 279 Independence
Boulevard, Virginia Beach, VA," dated March 08, 2018, and prepared by Coast
Sign Incorporated, with the exception that the freestanding sign shall be no taller
than eight feet in height from the ground elevation. Said exhibit has been exhibited
to the Virginia Beach City Council and is on file with the Department of Planning
and Community Development.
3. There shall be at a minimum, seventy-five (75) square feet of landscape material
planted surrounding the freestanding sign. The landscape material shall be a
combination of ornamental grass, ground cover and low shrubs, not to exceed
three (3) feet in height at maturity.

Background and Summary of Proposal
• The applicant desires to install a freestanding sign for a proposed hotel within the Central Business Core District
(CBCD). Section 2210 of the Zoning Ordinance states that freestanding signs within the CBCD shall be allowed
only by Special Exception for Alternative Compliance, meaning all freestanding signs require a review and
ultimate approval by the City Council.
• The proposed freestanding sign is will be located adjacent to Broad Street at the northwest corner of the
property.The submitted sign exhibit depicts a double face with illuminated letters. The sign will be oriented
perpendicular to Board Street so as to reduce the visibility of the illuminated letters from the multifamily
dwellings located along Board Street, north of the site. The sign is depicted as 12 feet in height and three feet
five inches in width and constructed of black painted aluminum with white acrylic lettering.
• In addition,the applicant is also requesting a Special Exception for Alternative Compliance to allow the
installation a 126 square-foot building crown sign on the hotel, thereby exceeding the maximum of 100 square
feet, as set forth in the Zoning Ordinance, as a matter of right.
• The building crown sign is proposed to be installed on the facade that faces Independence Boulevard. The
applicant considers the extra 26 square feet of size necessary to allow for proper letter spacing and to align with
the decorative facade treatment beneath it.

Evaluation and Recommendation
The request for a Special Exception for Alternative Compliance for the proposed freestanding sign and building crown
sign is, in Staff's opinion, acceptable as the signage is not anticipated to have any adverse impacts to the surrounding
area. The freestanding sign is acceptable in this location as it will provide direction for the hotel guests to the entry point
of the property.The building crown sign appears to be appropriately scaled to the building's proportions. Both signs
were reviewed by the Central Business District Association's Design Review Committee on January 11, 2018, and were

Item #2
Suburban Capital, Inc.
Alternative Compliance
281 Independence Boulevard
District—Bayside
December 12th, 2018
APPROVED
Ms. Sandloop: The next application is agenda item number two, Suburban Capital Incorporated;
an application for an Alternative Compliance on property located at 281
Independence Boulevard located in the Bayside District. Is there a representative
for this application?
Ms. Hotta: Hello, Katie Hotta I represent Suburban Capital.
Mr. Thornton: Thank you. Would you give us an overview of your application and any thought
you would like for us to consider in processing the application?
Ms. Hotta: So the application is for Alternative Compliance for both the monument sign
which will direct hotel guests, and a building sign for the Hyatt Place. I am sorry,
wasn't sure how much summary I needed to give on the project. Do you want me
to give you the whole project or just the items?
Mr. Thornton: Just whatever you want us to know that we might not know.
1
Ms. Hotta: Okay, so it's a Hyatt Place, 127 rooms being constructed at the corner of Broad
Street and Independence. The alternative compliance request is for two items,
one is for the freestanding sign that's been identified right there, as well as the
sign facing Independence, which is roughly 26 square feet larger than zoning
permits. So the recommendations I received from Mr. Davis, we agree with the
landscaping, being requested around the freestanding sign. In addition, Mr. Davis
called me today asking that the sign be reduced from 12-feet to 8-feet and we are
in agreement.
Mr. Thornton: Okay, thank you. Any questions of Mrs. Hotta? Thank you.
Ms. Hotta: Thank you.
Mr. Thornton: With that, there is anyone else to speak on the matter?
Ms. Sandloop:No.
Mr. Thornton: Okay with that, we closed the public hearing. Are there any statements or
questions or motions on this, Mr. Redmond?
Mr. Redmond: I would just like to thank the applicant. We had a discussion this morning about
my concern with the height of the sign. I think it is certainly appropriate to some
extent in terms of the directional nature for which it's intended, but it's not as a
normal suburban site. It's an urban site, and we want to try and stick as close as
we can to the important things that make the Central Business District what it is.
So, and it was largely my concern, that caused the Staff to inquire with her and so
2
I appreciate that you are doing that, Thank you for that. Unless anybody else has
any comments, I will be prepared to make a motion.
Mr. Thornton: Okay, please go ahead.
Mr. Redmond: Mr. Chairman I move that we approve agenda item number two with change of
the height being reduced from, I mean, from 12 feet to 8 feet.
Mr. Thornton: Any second for that?
Mr. Wall: Second.
Mr. Thornton: Mr. Wall has the second.
Ms. Sandloop: Vote is open. By recorded vote of 10-0, agenda item number two, Suburban
Capital Incorporated, has been approved as amended.

CITY OF VIRGINIA BEACH
AGENDA ITEM I
ITEM: GLENN MCDERMOTT [Applicant] TOWN CENTER JEWEL, LLC [Property
Owner] Special Exemption for Alternative Compliance (Freestanding Sign)
at the property located at 4452 Virginia Beach Boulevard (GPIN
1477655469), COUNCIL DISTRICT — LYNNHAVEN.
MEETING DATE: January 15, 2019
• Background:
The applicant desires to install a freestanding sign for a commercial building within
the Central Business Core District (CBCD). Section 2210 of the Zoning Ordinance
requires that freestanding signs within the CBCD are allowed but only with
approval from the City Council of a Special Exception for Alternative Compliance.
The proposed six-foot tall, monument-style freestanding sign will be located on the
southeast corner of the site adjacent to Virginia Beach Boulevard. The externally
illuminated sign will complement the color and materials of the existing building.
The applicant indicated the need for the sign in order to enhance visibility for the
two units within the building that he has had difficulty leasing. These units have
limited exposure as they do not have frontage along Virginia Beach Boulevard.
• Considerations:
The freestanding sign is designed to complement the existing building. The Central
Business District Association's Design Review Committee (DRC) considered the
proposed sign at the November 8, 2018 meeting and deemed it compliant with the
applicable Central Business Core Design Guidelines, noting that sufficient plant
material be installed. To emphasize this position, Staff recommends a condition
that restates the Zoning Ordinance requirement for the installation of plant
material.
There was one speaker at the Planning Commission public hearing representing
the adjacent property owner to the east. While not specifically in opposition, he
noted that when his client's property is redeveloped, the freestanding sign will not
be visible from Virginia Beach Boulevard by traffic moving in the westbound
direction. The Planning Commission voiced concern that the sign is not in keeping
with the urban streetscape and character envisioned for the Central Business Core
of Town Center.

• Recommendations:
City Staff recommends approval of this request. The Planning Commission passed
a motion to recommend denial of this request by a vote of 9-1.
1. The freestanding sign shall be monument style and constructed in substantial
conformance with the submitted exhibit entitled "Diamonds Direct, Virginia Beach,
VA, Option 3," dated May 11, 2018, and prepared by Talley Sign Company. Said
exhibit has been exhibited to the Virginia Beach City Council and is on file with the
Department of Planning and Community Development.
2. There shall be at a minimum, seventy-five (75) square feet of plant material
installed surrounding the freestanding sign. The plant material shall be a
combination of ornamental grass, ground cover, and low shrubs, not to exceed
three (3) feet in height at maturity. A plan depicting this plant material shall be
submitted to the Planning Department for review, and no sign permit shall be
issued until plan is deemed compliant with this condition.

Background and Summary of Proposal
• The applicant proposes to install a freestanding sign within the Central Business Core District(CBCD). Section
2210 of the Zoning Ordinance states that freestanding signs within the CBCD shall be allowed only by Special
Exception for Alternative Compliance, meaning all freestanding signs require a review and ultimate approval by
the City Council.
• The proposed freestanding sign will be located on the southeast corner of the site adjacent to Virginia Beach
Boulevard. The submitted detail depicts a six foot tall by nine foot wide monument-style freestanding sign with a
double face, each face 32 square feet in size.Sign colors and materials will match those of the existing building,
to include a silver aluminum background. The sign will be externally illuminated with light projecting down from
the header,or the top,of the sign.

Evaluation and Recommendation
The request for a Special Exception for Alternative Compliance for a proposed freestanding sign is, in Staff's opinion,
acceptable as it will complement the existing building and will not likely have any adverse impacts to the surrounding
area. The Central Business District Association's Design Review Committee (DRC) considered the proposed sign at the
November 8, 2018 meeting and deemed it compliant with the applicable Central Business Core Design Guidelines,noting
that sufficient plant material be installed. To emphasize this position, Staff recommends a condition that restates the
Zoning Ordinance requirement that plant material surrounding the base of the sign be installed.
Recommended Conditions
1. The freestanding sign shall be monument style and constructed in substantial conformance with the submitted
exhibit entitled "Diamonds Direct,Virginia Beach,VA, Option 3," dated May 11, 2018,and prepared by Talley

Sign Company. Said exhibit has been exhibited to the Virginia Beach City Council and is on file with the
Department of Planning and Community Development.
2. There shall be at a minimum,seventy-five(75) square feet of plant material installed surrounding the
freestanding sign. The plant material shall be a combination of ornamental grass,ground cover, and low shrubs,
not to exceed three (3)feet in height at maturity. A plan depicting this plant material shall be submitted to the
Planning Department for review, and no sign permit shall be issued until plan is deemed compliant with this
condition.
Comprehensive Plan Recommendations
The Comprehensive Plan recognizes this area as being within the Central Business District/Core Area of the Pembroke
Strategic Growth Area and describes it as a well-designed urban center with a complement of office, retail, residential,
educational,entertainment, cultural, restaurant,open spaces, and other uses. The vision for the Pembroke SGA is a
central urban core with a vertical mix of uses,great streets, mobility and transit alternatives,gathering places,
environmental and neighborhood protection,green buildings and infrastructure opportunities providing a variety of
civic,commercial,artistic and ethnically diverse areas.
Natural and Cultural Resources Impacts
The site is located in the Chesapeake Bay watershed. There does not appear to be any significant natural or cultural
features associated with the site.

Alternative Compliance
4452 Virginia Beach Boulevard
District—Lynnhaven
December 12th, 2018
DENIED
Ms. Sandloop: The next item is agenda item number three, Glenn McDermott which is an
application for Alternative Compliance on property located at 4452 Virginia
Beach Boulevard located in the Lynnhaven District, is there a representative for
this application?
Mr. McDermott: Good afternoon, I am Dr. Glenn McDermott. I am applying for a
freestanding sign in front of my property. I am the owner of the Diamonds Direct
Building on Virginia Beach, Boulevard and basically we have had a significant
problem, not the Diamonds Direct part, but the two other suites really have no
visibility from the Boulevard, whatsoever, to see them, so I am applying for
whatever the variance is.
Mr. Thornton: Thanks. Any questions for Dr. McDermott? Thank you.
Ms. Sandloop:We have one speaker Eddie Bourdon.
Mr. Bourdon: Mr. Chairman for the record Eddie Bourdon, Virginia Beach Attorney. I represent
the owner of the property to due east of this. who has no objection whatsoever to
1
Mr. McDermott getting a sign. But I want to make sure, because he contacted me
and I have listened to the discussion you all had this morning, which I thought
was, I thought 'a lot of it made a great deal of sense. But what his concern is that,
be very clear, and Mr. Chairman, you asked a question in the informal that if it
were true, I wouldn't be standing here. Where this sign is going to be located is
north of the south face of the building on the Diamond Exchange property. The
adjacent property, also in the Central Business District, will redevelop at some
point and that building can be up to the property line or two feet of the property
line. The subject sign, when that happens or if we park a truck in the parking lot,
will not be visible from Virginia Beach Boulevard. The sign is not where the
orange sign was that you have in another picture, that's in the public right-of-way
and if that's where they were going to put it, then it would be, it would still have
visibility, which that's an whole another situation. And again, my client is not
opposed and I am not here to oppose. Mr. Davis this morning made a reference to
the adjoining property and I get the impression he was saying something as
though we were opposed. We are not opposed at all, we just want to make sure
that the understanding is that where this sign is going to be physically located
when this property is redeveloped and/or if cars are parked out here, that sign is
going to have minimal affect. It will really have no visibility when this property is
redeveloped and that's what everyone needs to just be aware of. We have no
issue with that, but it's not going to be visible.
Mr. Thornton: Any questions for Mr. Bourdon?Thank you.
Ms. Smith: No more speakers.
2
Mr. Thornton: No more speakers. With that, we will close the public hearing and have some
discussion amongst ourselves. I am sorry, Dr. McDermott, you are free to come
back and rebut Mr. Bourdon's comment if you care to, sorry. Thanks for
reminding me.
Mr. McDermott: Unfortunately, either way we really don't have much of a choice right now
with the visibility, even if that happens, whatever they will develop, you know.
But in the interim right now, the other tenants really have, since they sit further
back there is no way, now to know they are even there. And still from my
perspective, I'm willing to, even if it becomes ineffective later on, to go to the
expense of putting up the freestanding sign that we have for now and develop it
that way.
Mr. Thornton: Okay, thank you. Ron.
Ms. Ripley: Dr. McDermott, did you consider, and we had a discussion this morning, and I don't
know if you were in the informal meeting.
Mr. McDermott: No, I wasn't.
Mr. Ripley: Okay and the concern is in the Central Business District of having a lot of
monument signs around, everybody wants to have one, and it's an urban
environment that really, that's why you are in here for special exception, trying to
get this. And really there is a lot of kind of push back on this type of sign and I
realize we just approved one for the hotel, but the hotel is kind like a side street
and it's an entrance to the hotel. This is out on the Boulevard far more visible and
it's concerning. Did you consider hanging a sign off the building. I think that's
something you can do, I may be wrong. I am certainly not a sign expert, but did
3
you consider that, as oppose to putting it down on the monument, which would be
more of an urban type of sign that would hang here.
Mr. McDermott: You are talking about all over the future renters or?
Mr. Ripley: No off the front of your building, maybe hangs out so that you can see it from the
traffic flowing from either direction, versus down on the ground as a monument
sign, which is a traditional shopping center type sign that you are asking for.
Mr. McDermott: Well, no I didn't consider it, didn't even know you could do that and I would
probably get some significant flak from Diamonds Direct, who's really particular
about their sign that sets there. Our problem was with this building. It used to be
the old IHOP and at least I am sure you guys appreciated the structure I put up,
replacing the old IHOP which was kind of an eyesore. We got locked into moving
this building because there was an easement right through our parking lot, so we
had no way to put it even up against the existing building that's there on the other
side where you could have a freestanding sign. So we were kind of predestined to
do that. We did have a full monument sign up there and usually, you know, being
in real estate, but most of the time, real estate people always told me, including
Bob Thornton, that it's, you know, if you have an existing sign to try and get it
grandfathered in. So there are problems with that part of the city encouraged us to
bring it down and you know then we could apply later on to try and get a
freestanding sign up. So we got the building built, but then we really don't have
anything for those tenants, and this picture doesn't really show you if you are
coming down the Boulevard, there is an existing building, you know, blocking the
signs that would go over the tenants on the building itself. So we are kind of
4
stuck. I think you know right now, it's a matter of, like I said it could be a wasted
effort on my part to spend the money to put the monument sign up, but at least
people would be able to find it as they come up, and look at the addresses they
know it's there and then see and go to the back. I don't know if that helps explain
it.
Mr. Thornton: Jack Wall with a question.
Mr. Wall: Dr. McDermott, we discussed this morning and, this is just really to piggyback on
Ron's comment, that there is a possibility for building crown sign on the west
side. Is that what you are talking about that it wouldn't help, were you aware of
that?
Mr. McDermott: Well actually, we have another discussion with one of the other city entities
where we have, it's a very small sign on the west side because the visibility is so
bad from these sides. So even though that's some kind of variance, I think they
approved that. The idea would be that at least it faces where people can see it.
We have nothing over there, if you see it from here, it looks okay, but there is
nothing. You are driving, then you cannot see those tenants in the rear. I don't
know if that explains it but.
Mr. Wall: Okay.
Mr. Thornton: Jeff.
Mr. Hodgson: Are they currently leased right now?
Mr. McDermott: The second one, suite 102 is. The signs haven't gone up. That's what we
are working on with that and, as I said, normally you put the sign over the front
entrance but the visibility is so bad. They kind of agreed with what we were
5
talking about. They let us put it on the flip side, some people could at least know
you are there, that's why I am trying to compliment it with the other sign and it's
more directional for people coming by 45-50 miles an hour, it's very hard to see.
They will be looking and many times they come in from the wrong lot just by
error. At least this way we have some kind of identification. At night it would be
almost impossible to do it.
Mr. Thornton: If this does not make it through City Council, would you put some form of
identification over the door of these two tenants, these two spaces back there?
Mr. McDermott: I might not be able to do that. The reason is, my sign, I could probably
elucidate a little more, because they kind of approve letting us put it on the west
side, so you can't have two signs.
Mr. Thornton: I understand, but I would assume there is some negotiation in putting it on the
front of this building over the door versus there. I mean that's your call or has that
already been approved?
Mr. McDermott: I think that was approved, but from our perspective, it's the visibility that is
just so bad. It won't help us unless you literally drive up and then you look up and
see it. But I am talking about from the Boulevard as they drive down the
Boulevard to, at least know that there is some other entity there and that's where
we're stuck.
Mr. Thornton: Any other questions for Dr. McDermott, thank you. Oh I am sorry, Dave.
Mr. Redmond: Dr. McDermott, did I understand you correctly as you said you have a tenant
who is in there with no signage?
Mr. McDermott: Right now, yeah.
6
Mr. Redmond: Okay, alright, thank you.
Mr. McDermott: We are working on getting the sign, but it was first a consideration which side
to even put it on. That's why we try, you know, argued for putting in on the west
side which is atypical because there is just no visibility, literally. You would have
to drive up and look at it to see this, otherwise you think nobody is there.
Mr. Redmond: Alright, thank you.
Mr. McDermott: Thank you.
Mr. Thornton: Thank you. No other speakers?
Ms. Sandloop: No sir.
Mr. Thornton: Okay with that, we will close the public hearing and open it up for discussion.
Ron?
Mr. Ripley: Can I ask Kevin Kemp something? It's almost about the signs that he can and
cannot do with this building. Can't he have identification, a company name over
top of the door that leads into these two tenants?
Mr. Kemp: The code permits for one building sign per unit leased. So you know, in this case,
he has chosen to put that one sign on the back. Now he could get a second sign;
however, it would need to come forward to you through Alternative Compliance.
Mr. Ripley: What does the sign say that's on the back?This just identifies the building or?
Mr. Kemp: If it's not there now; it's going to identify the tenant who leased that space, so it will
be on the back side of the unit.
Mr. Ripley: Yes, two rental spaces. He can go for one sign?
Mr. Kemp: No, each rental space is allowed one sign, whether it goes on the front or the rear.
7
Mr. Ripley: So you are talking about one that goes on the back and you could have one on one
of the other tenants on the front? That's what you are saying?
Mr. Kemp: Correct, yes.
Mr. Ripley: Okay.
Mr. Thornton: Dave?
Mr. Redmond:Can you define the back for me, I mean, I am interpreting that as the back, the
building that is?
Mr. Kemp: Okay.
Mr. Redmond: There is a front face towards Virginia Beach Boulevard. You are talking about
the back of the building that faces the old Volcano Sushi space?
Mr. Kemp: I am talking about the west face of the building.
Mr. Redmond:You are talking about the west side of the building.
Mr. Kemp: If you are looking at the building from Virginia Beach, it would be the left side,
it's just the rear of the leasable units.
Mr. Redmond: Here is the back of the unit is what you are saying?
Mr. Kemp: Yes.
Mr. Redmond: Okay.
Mr. Kemp: Correct.
Mr. Thornton: I have a question for you. If he chose to put a sign over each one of those leased
spaces on the east face of the building, but he could not have a same sign on the
west side of the building, is it reasonable to assume that would be his call as to
where to put that sign over the door or over the back but not one of each?
8
Mr. Kemp: Absolutely, the code just requires that the sign be on a portion of the building that
that tenant occupies.
Mr. Thornton: So if he and the tenant chose to put a sign over the door of the space beyond
Diamonds Direct that would count as the sign over that space.
Mr. Kemp: That is correct.
Mr. Thornton: Okay so the fact is that there has been discussion about putting it on the west wall
doesn't preclude moving it to the east wall.
Mr. Kemp: No, it is their choice.
Mr. Thornton: Okay, any other comments.
Mr. Ripley: I would prefer him to do that, I would prefer to have sign identifying the tenant
whatever the tenant company is over those doors and not have the monument
sign. I think that's a more appropriate way to handle this particular District
because it's just again, you know, there are others, we have Cheesecake Factory,
those people they want monument sign. So it becomes, it could be difficult to
work with, I understand his concern and he wants to get it rented and I understand
that very much. But I think a sign over the door would be the appropriate way to
handle this I think.
Mr. Thornton: Now one further question. If we were to agree with this, would that preclude the
signs over the door of each one of those rental units, if the ordinance allows a sign
over each door now and he chooses to put them on the east face and we agree for
this monument sign, is this in addition to those?
Mr. Kemp: Yes, it would be in addition. The permitted wall signs are not included in this
application. This application is just for the addition of a freestanding sign.
9
Mr. McDermott: If I could make one more comment on that.
Mr. Thornton: Anybody object?No, come forward.
Mr. McDermott: When I met with the, I guess the sign committee, they understood the
problem with putting the sign on the east side from this Princess Anne High
School in front of this, then another building, and then this coming down the
Boulevard. There was no visibility. That's why, although that's atypical to put it
on the other side, they understood the problem and agreed that the visibility was
so bad, there is nothing from the Boulevard that would tell anybody that we are
even there. And that's why we had that approved on the other side. We can put it
there, but still we are stuck with the same problem that we won't have anything to
identify that we are even there or that there are even any other tenants. That's
where it can go by the variance. Thank you.
Mr. Thornton: Thank you. Anybody else want to say anything? I want to make a comment or
two before we ask for a motion. I fully understand what he is asking for because
in the world of retail leasing, accessibility and visibility are the two things that
make it work. And he has reasonably good accessibility but he has got pretty bad
visibility back there, and if in fact the next door neighbor does build something,
it's going to block it even more.My personal thoughts are while this might not
exactly fit the Pembroke area concept of urban shopping from this property going
east bound, it's, you know, it's kind of congested in there and I personally don't
think one more small monument sign is going to ruin the nature of the Pembroke
area, so I am in favor of this. I don't know whether we could put a time limit on it
and make it to be taken down in three or four years. I don't know that that would
10
accomplish anything, but I would like to support this application because I think
he has done an outstanding job of building a very attractive building there. And if
this were 12-foot sign or something like we saw on the Hilton project, I would
had some real heartburn about it. But this is in the Lynnhaven District, so it's my
area, so I would like to ask you all to give serious thought to approving this and
with that may I have a motion?
Mr. Redmond: I was going to make an alternative motion from the one that you just described.
Mr. Thornton: Okay.
Mr. Redmond: But I would like to make my own comment, I do disagree with that. There are
not particularly compelling retails spaces because you can get enough yield out of
the property. Doesn't mean that the retail spaces that you build or necessarily
going to build will be all that valuable and those are in the difficult spot. They are
set way back from the roadway and they do have visibility problems. I don't
know that you remedy that by creating a sign that doesn't really fit into the
ordinance or into the neighborhood. Mr. Bourdon's client who sits right next
door is going to want one too and so is the Cheesecake Factory and so is
everybody else and you know you just get that, just starts rolling downhill like
that. I am uncomfortable with the idea of that sign within an urban environment
like that. It's a challenge site. Challenged site by virtue of that easement all along
the beautiful building and he has got a great tenant that's in there. But that doesn't
mean the entire building is necessarily going to be as great or the spaces as
marketable, but I don't think you, I don't think we create a little problem and
11
trying to fix that, so that's part of the real estate business, I think. So, I would
make a motion to deny the application.
Mr. Ripley: I will second.
Ms. Sandloop: The vote is open. By vote of 9-1, the agenda item number three has been denied.

Mayor Dyer and esteemed Council members,
I am writing this letter to formally withdraw my application for a modification of conditions for Piney Grove Baptist
Church, in which has been scheduled for consideration on January 15, 2019. The application was about condition
8, in which we were requesting to remove the requirement to install motion sensors on our parking lot lights due to
our engineering team not being aware of any such technology available for us to comply with this condition for
parking lot lights. However, we have been recently presented by our engineers with motion sensors specifically
designed for parking lots that are now available, and that allows us to fully comply with this condition within our
building requirements to have motion sensors installed. We are now taking this opportunity to work with the
manufacturer to order, and pre-program our new lighting system that will come with the sensors already installed
upon delivery. According to manufacturers, we estimate the timetable of having the lights individually programmed,
ordered, delivered, and installed to take anywhere from 4-5 months, pending any unforeseen delays.
Thank you for your consideration in this matter,
•

AGENDA ITEM
ITEM: PINEY GROVE BAPTIST CHURCH [Applicant & Property Owner]
Modification of Conditions (Religious Use) at the property located at 2804
Holland Road (GPIN 1494590942), COUNCIL DISTRICT — PRINCESS ANNE.
MEETING DATE: January 15, 2019
■ Background:
The City Council approved a Conditional Use Permit for the expansion of the
existing church on July 14, 2015. The proposed expansion included office space,
a new sanctuary, and increased parking area. This work was to be completed in
two phases. Phase one, which includes the office space and parking area, has
been completed. Phase two, the new sanctuary, will be completed as funds
become available. The initial site plan presented to the Planning Commission
showed a smaller parking area, with an existing home along Bald Eagle Drive to
remain. Due to neighborhood concerns regarding traffic and the congregation
parking in the adjacent neighborhood, it was agreed upon by the church at the
Planning Commission meeting to remove the home and provide additional parking
area.
There were 17 conditions included in the City Council approval. Condition number
8 addresses the site and parking lot lighting. The condition reads as follows.
"All lighting on the site shall be directed downward and not spill over onto
adjoining residential lots. All parking lot lighting shall be on motion sensors
at night when the church is not in use. Lighting on the front and rear of the
church building may remain on for security purposes, but will be shielded
from residential neighbors."
This condition was added between the Planning Commission meeting and the City
Council hearing. Through the permitting process, plan review and development of
the site, the parking lot lights were installed without motion sensors. The applicant
has submitted this application for consideration to remove the requirement for
motion sensors on the parking lot lights.
Over the past year, City staff has received complaints regarding the glare of the
parking lot LED lights onto the adjacent properties. To mitigate the impact of the
lights, shields were installed to the rear building lights and the parking lot lights
closest to the adjacent homes. All lights are directed downward. A photometric
study of the site was conducted by a certified lighting engineer and reviewed by
Piney Grove Baptist Church
Page 2 of 4
City staff; no violations were found to the City Zoning Ordinance in regard to light
pollution.
• Considerations:
Condition number 8 of the City Council approved application from July 14, 2015
was intended to mitigate the impact of exterior lighting on the adjacent residential
properties. The way the condition is worded, the lights may remain on at all times
the church is in use. When the church is not in use, the lights are to be on motion
sensors. The applicant has requested this modification to remove the motion
sensor requirement. Please see the attached staff report for further details.
• Recommendations:
City Staff recommends approval of this request. The Planning Commission passed
a motion to recommend denial of this request by a vote of 7-3. Staff recommended
conditions listed below.
1. The site shall be developed substantially in conformance with the site plan
revised for the July 14, 2015 City Council meeting entitled "Exhibit for Piney
Grove Baptist Church, Virginia Beach, VA," prepared by Site Improvement
Associates, Inc., dated April 17, 2015, with revisions dated June 17, 2015.
Said plan shows two hundred fifty (250) on-site parking spaces.
2. Landscape buffering and fencing along Bald Eagle Road shall substantially
adhere to the submitted plan entitled "Exhibit showing landscape for Piney
Grove Baptist Church, Sheets 1 and 2," prepared by Site Improvement
Associates, Inc., dated June 26, 2015. Two changes to the said plan are
required. First, Aucuba or Camillia must be substituted for Heavenly
Bamboo, which is an unacceptable invasive species. Second, the Chindo
Viburnum must have a minimum height of thirty six inches (36") at
installation, rather than twenty four inches (24") as shown. The required
maintenance gate on Bald Eagle Drive shall be secured from inside the
parking lot except during maintenance. The gate shall not be open for
pedestrian access. Landscape material shall be planted as soon as possible
along Bald Eagle Road.
3. The proposed church addition shall subsequently adhere to the submitted
architectural elevations entitled "Piney Grove Baptist Church," prepared by
Architectural Innovations.
4. A landscape buffer with Category IV landscape screening is required
between the church and adjacent residential uses as shown on the
submitted site plan. No structures of any kind are permitted within this buffer
area, except fences as shown on the Plan. Existing trees shall be preserved
where feasible.
Piney Grove Baptist Church
Page 3 of 4
5. The church shall provide positive drainage throughout the site such that all
drainage does not impact adjoining residential lots to the east or north.
6. New mechanical equipment, including but not limited to, heating and cooling
equipment and generators, shall not be located within one hundred feet
(100') of an adjacent residential lot line. All mechanical equipment must be
screened from ground level view.
7. The dumpster shall be screened and located as shown on the submitted site
plan.
8. All lighting on the site shall be directed downward and not spill over onto
adjoining residential lots. All parking lot lighting shall be on motion sensors
at night when the church is not in use. Parking lot lights in the northern
parking area shall be turned off when the church is not in use. Lighting on
the front and rear of the church building may remain on for security
purposes, but will be shielded from residential neighbors.
9. Prior to the issuance of a building permit for the additions, the church will
work with the Zoning Administrator and Traffic Engineering to develop a
plan to divert church traffic to the overflow lot across Holland Road when
on-site parking is full. The plan will provide for any signs needed to be
fabricated in advance and an implementation strategy to include shuttle
service across Holland Road. This plan shall be activated when construction
of the additions commences.
10. After a building permit has been issued for construction, the church will
provide shuttle service across Holland Road whenever the parking lot on the
west side of Holland Road is used.
11. After a Certificate of Occupancy has been issued for the new sanctuary,
church leadership will encourage all attending church activities to park on
church property.
12. At no time shall both the new eight hundred thirty-five (835) seat sanctuary
and the existing four hundred twenty (420) seat sanctuary be used for
services simultaneously. It is the intent of the church to repurpose the
existing four hundred twenty (420) seat sanctuary into classrooms and
offices when funds are available.
13. The temporary structure currently housing the Day Watch program may be
moved to the north side of the main church property and used until the
expansion construction work has been completed. The portable building
shall be removed from the site when construction is finished.

Background and Summary of Proposal
History
Piney Grove church was established in 1870 on a one-acre site in the vicinity of this site,east of Holland Road.As the
church grew, new buildings were constructed on the west side of Holland Road.A Conditional Use Permit was approved
by City Council and the existing church building was dedicated in 1989. It is the fourth church building to be constructed.
The cemetery containing some of the original church members' remains is located on the church's property on the east
side of Holland Road.
Background
City Council approved a Conditional Use Permit for the expansion of the existing church on July 14, 2015.The proposed
expansion includes a 14,000 square foot sanctuary with 835 seats,3,050 square feet of office space, a conference room
and a reception area.This work will be done in two phases as funds become available.
The first phase of the expansion project was recently completed.This includes the office space,conference room and
reception area. Parking was added to the site to accommodate the future growth of the church through the proposed
sanctuary building.The second phase, new sanctuary, has not yet been constructed.
During the Planning Commission hearing on June 10, 2015,several residents of the adjacent neighborhoods spoke about
the proposal.The primary concerns expressed adequate parking and minimizing traffic impacts.The initial proposal
brought forward to Planning Commission depicted a portion of the lot being developed to accommodate more parking,
however,the existing home along Bald Eagle Road would remain,and possibly be demolished at a later time.Additional
parking would be accommodated on church-owned property on the west side of Holland Road. During the Planning
Commission meeting, a change to the existing plan was agreed upon by the applicant that included removing the
existing home along Bald Eagle Road and developing the entire northern portion of the site with a parking lot.This
modified plan was approved by City Council.
Modification Request
There are 17 conditions included with the City Council approval. Condition number 8 addresses the site and parking
lighting.The condition reads as follows:
"All lighting on the site shall be directed downward and not spill over onto adjoining residential lots.All parking
lot lighting shall be on motion sensors at night when the church is not in use. Lighting on the front and rear of
the church building may remain on for security purposes, but will be shielded from residential neighbors."
This condition was added to the application between the Planning Commission and City Council hearing.The purpose of
the condition was to protect the adjacent residential properties from the impacts of the exterior lighting, particularly at
the hours when the church was not in use.
Through the permitting process, plan review and development of the site,the parking lot lights were installed without
motion sensor capability.The electrical contractor reviewed the feasibility of retro-fitting motion sensors on to the
existing lights, but this proved to be costly.Additionally,the applicant does not believe that the motion sensors
accomplish the intent of the condition.As the condition is written,the church can keep the lights on while in use,which
is typically until 10 p.m.The motion sensors would be used during the night hours and run the risk of being activated by
animals or other factors out of the church's control. It is the applicant's opinion that turning the six lights in the northern
parking lot off when the church is not in use better protects the neighboring properties.
Due to the considerations above,the applicant requests that condition 8 be modified as follows:
Piney Grove Baptist Church
Agenda Item 6
Page 2
"All lighting on the site shall be directed downward and not spill over onto adjoining residential lots. All parking
Jot lighting shall be on motion sensors at night when the church is not in use. Parking lot lights in the northern
parking area shall be turned off when the church is not in use. Lighting on the front and rear of the church
building may remain on for security purposes, but will be shielded from residential neighbors."
Over the past year, City Staff has received complaints regarding the glare of the parking lot LED lights onto their
properties. To improve the impact of the lights on the adjacent residential properties, shields were installed on the rear
building lights and five of the parking lot lights closest to adjacent homes. All lights are directed downward. A
photometric study of the site was conducted by a lighting engineer and reviewed by City Staff; no violations were found
to the City Zoning Ordinance in regard to light pollution.
Additional Information
The church has received a Certificate of Occupancy for the new office space.The church is currently working with the
City to correct a few items to be in compliance with the approved conditions of the 2015 Conditional Use Permit, and
the approved site plan in regard to drainage. Specifically, the Zoning Office is working with the church toward
compliance with landscaping and site maintenance.The Permits and Inspections Office and Development Services
Center are working with the church to finalize regrading necessary on site.

Evaluation and Recommendation
Staff recommends approval of this request. In Staff's view, retro-fitting motion sensors on the parking lot lights is not
the most effective way to meet the intent of condition number 8 of the approved Conditional Use Permit. Turning the
northern parking lot lights off when the church is not in use will minimize the impact of the lights on the neighboring
residential properties during the night hours.
Staff is continuing to work with the church to resolve the outstanding landscape and drainage items through normal
departmental procedures.

Comprehensive Plan Recommendations
The Comprehensive Plan shows that this site is located within the Suburban Area where planning principles call to create
and maintain neighborhood stability and sustainability. As an element of this, stable neighborhoods should be
supported with complementary non-residential uses in such a way that working together the stability and sustainability
of the Suburban Area is ensured for now and the future. The improvements recently completed by the church created a
better parking and traffic situation, and removed vehicular traffic from the neighborhood.
Natural and Cultural Resources Impacts
This vicinity has been home to the Piney Grove Church since the early 1870's. The first Piney Grove Church was a log
cabin, originally located on the west side of Holland Road. As the church grew,they moved to the east side of Holland
Road where larger buildings were constructed. The existing building was dedicated in 1989, and is the fourth Piney
Grove Church building in this area. Some of the earliest church members are buried in the cemetery on the east side of
Holland Road.

Piney Grove Baptist Church
Modification of Conditions
2804 Holland Road
District— Princess Anne
November 14, 2018
DENIED
Mr. Fisher: By the vote of 10-0, the agenda item number two has been approved with the added
condition. Our next order of business is agenda item number six Piney Grove
Baptist Church, this is an application for a modification of conditions religious
use on property located at 2804 Holland Road, is there a representative here for
the application, come to the podium please. You can state your name for the
record sir.
Mr. Williams: Dave Williams, pastor of Piney Grove Baptist Church.
Mr. Thornton: Good afternoon.
Mr. Williams: Good afternoon.
Mr. Thornton: Give us a quick summary what you are hear for and anything that you think we
need to know to help make our decision a little easier.
Mr. Williams: Well, church has put in an application to have a condition removed which is the
condition that states that when the church is not in usage that we will employ
motion sensors on our parking lot lights to illuminate the parking lot. This
condition was born out of the churches need to have the lights on 24 hours, not 24
hours but all throughout the night as other churches have, so that we can have
safety in our parking lot when the church is not in use; however, when our
building project was completed, we discovered that the lights and which we have
closest to the church illuminate the church in such a way that we don't have to
have all the parking lot lights fully illuminated throughout the night. Also, the
church has had a lot of rebuttal from the community about having lights on all
night long. This commission recommended that instead of having all lights on as
a compromise that we would go to the motion sensor lights. We now see that
that's not relevant for us to have those lights being that again the lights closest to
the church illuminate the church in such a way that we have the safety that we
initially wanted. The second reason we want to have that condition removed is
because we feel that having those motion sensor lights would be a further
nuisance to the community. We already had some calls, handful of calls from the
community that complained about our lights going off at 9:50 p.m., right now, we
have an automatic shutoff for our main parking lot lights that cutout lights off at
9:50 and we have had some complaints about our lights being on until 9:50, so we
feel that having motion sensor lights coming on with pets coming through the
parking lot cars, skate boarders, bikers come through the parking lot, turn the
1
lights on all the time at night early in the morning would be a further nuisance to
the community. The third reason we want to have that condition removed is
because the engineer that worked on our project stated to us that he had never
seen a motion sensor system put on parking lot lights. He said in all his 30 years
the stuff that he had never done, contacted some of his peers and colleagues
couldn't get any information from them as well. From my understanding, there's
no other organizational business in this city that has such type of lights on their
system so because there were some issues with our engineer even trying to come
up with a way to do motion sensor lights. We also feel that it was unfair for that
condition to be placed on us when there is nobody else in the city that has motion
sensor lights on their parking lot lights. So for those three reasons, the church
putting an application to have that condition removed so that we won't be held
accountable for honoring that condition.
Mr. Thornton: Thank you any questions of the pastor, Karen.
Ms. Kwasny: You said that only some of the lights are automatic shut off right now?
Mr. Williams: So our main parking lot lights are on automatic shut off, if you can look at this
picture here, all the lights that are in this purple box, those lights are on automatic
shut off The lights that are closer to the handicap parking and that are close to
the very front of the church, we also has some lights going on the right side of the
church around the back that are illuminated all night long and we feel like those
lights illuminate enough to keep the church safe and that the church is not in
darkness all throughout the night, so these again lights that are in the purple box,
they shut off at 9:50.
Ms. Kwasny: Do they have a manual override that you can manually override if you vacated the
property prior to 9:50.
Mr. Williams: Do they have a manual override, yes they do.
Ms. Kwasny: Okay.
Mr. Thornton: So you could put those on a timer that goes off at dark, you can adjust the lights
with the system you have now to go off and keep them off at night?
Mr. Williams: Our main parking lot, yes.
Mr. Thornton: In the purple?
Mr. Williams: Yes.
Mr. Thornton: Okay, you just happened to have them set now at 9:50, you can set them.
Mr. Williams: 9:50 now.
Mr. Thornton: You could set them at 7 o'clock if you want it or whenever.
Mr. Williams: We could set them at 7 o'clock. However, we have them set according to the
business operation of the church. The church does not shut down until 9 p.m., all
our ministries they have up until 8:30 so whatever we have 33 ministries in our
2
church so whatever they are meeting for, they have until about 8:30 or 9 to
shutdown their meetings and then we have our lockup person who is responsible
for doing the cleanup. We give people opportunity, give our lockup person the
opportunity to do the final cleaning and he is probably vacate the premises not
later than 10, so we have them shutoff by 9:50.
Mr. Thornton: Do you have something going on almost every night?
Mr. Williams: Yes.
Mr. Thornton: Okay, Dee.
Ms. Oliver: That was the question, thank you.
Mr. Thornton: So just about every night of the week, you need those lights on until the last
person leaves.
Mr. Williams: Right.
Mr. Thornton: Okay.
Mr. Williams: And we have a staff person who's staffed Monday to Friday that's there from 5
until 9 p.m., he does his final again cleaning up and he is generally out there about
9:30 or 9:40, so he is on full staff.
Mr. Thornton: Other questions, thank you, standby for rebuttal.
Mr. Williams: Thank you.
Mr. Fisher: We do have one speaker in support as well as Ms. Linda Russell come to the
podium please. State your name for the record please.
Ms. Russell: Linda Russell. Okay, I would like to add this morning Frankenfield was saying
some really nice things about this church and I would like to add that they also
have a food pantry and they have that from like just one day a week, every
Tuesday from 10 until 2 that might be some of the reasons, maybe the lights are
on longer or something because when you get food for the food pantry then, you
know, you have to go after businesses close so I imagine that's not something, I
would also like to say because I hope there is some, this community, I go to this
church, sometimes I'm the only white person there and they treat me really, really
nice and I watch this and I have been here for 50 years in my neighborhood and I
do have some common ground because we know about the shootings and
everything and a week before the synagogue, little is said about the grocery store
shooting and they actually tried to get into a black church okay, so I hope that
they find some common ground with this and make it work for them and I support
what the preacher wants, okay.
Mr. Thornton: Thank you.
Mr. Fisher: Also have two speakers in opposition. Would Mr. Buddy Sparrow, please come to
the podium?
3
Mr. Thornton: Before we start on the opposition side, I need to make a small announcement.
This application is about changing a proffer for parking lot lights, we have all
gotten lots of information and letters and so forth about other issues, those other
issues are being handled by the zoning office, so today we are only here about the
lights. If you have a comment that has to do with drainage or parking or noise or
whatever it is that you're concerned about we are not going to take those up
today. They have asked for a modification of a proffer that deals with the
requirement to keep lights on and we are dealing with that matter so you know we
welcome your comments but if you have got lots of comments about things that
don't have to do with these lights, we would respectfully request to you take those
up with Kevin, with the staff at the zoning level because he is well aware of every
problem that you have brought to his attention and they are working on those
matters, so with that we would like the first speaker to come forward.
Mr. Fisher: You can state your name for the record sir.
Mr. Sparrow: Good afternoon, my name is Buddy Sparrow. I reside at 2813 Bald Eagle Road
directly adjacent to Piney Grove Baptist Church. I believe some of the
commissioners had an opportunity last week to visit the site and see firsthand the
impact it's had on our community. They removed a large wooded residential lot
and replaced it with a parking lot elevated 4-1/2 feet above the original elevation.
The uniqueness of this project justifies examining some unique alternatives to
help this project fit in with the community. Both the community and the various
city employees have confirmed on numerous occasions for the properties not in
use every evening. I believe some of you have received emailed photographs
recording that condition. Based on those observations, there seems to be some
disparity with the definition of the term in use. Do the lights in the parking lot
adjacent to the community need to be on if the building isn't in use. Additionally,
in an email to staff pastor Williams noted when people do come to the site at night
during the week, the car volume is not so abundant that cars will be parking near
the homes, and this is the northern parking lot he is referring to. They will
logically park closer to the building and not away from the building. If this is in
fact the case which is what we as residents have observed, why do those lights
need to be on in the first place? Additionally, as pastor Williams noted there are
several lights not attached to the building that remain on all night. The condition
has written now requires only the lights impacted the building that can be on all
evening. There is no request in his modification to have those other lights on all
night along. If manual switching and timers can be replaced by motion sensors,
then the definition of in use becomes quite plain, when somebody enters in
parking lot, the lights will come on. There has been discussion about the potential
for motion sensors to become a nuisance to the community due to triggering by
squirrels and plastic bags, I am not sure what type of motion sensors the folks
bringing this up have experience with but as a home owner with motion sensors
both in and outside of my house that's not what I have observed. The sensors are
adjustable and you can adjust the sensitivity in the area that they are monitoring. I
believe cost has been raised a concern. The lights that were ordered have an
option for a built-in motion sensor from the factory, it appears that wasn't
4
ordered. In closing, I ask this commission not only to retain the requirement for
the motion sensors but remove the language in use and require that the lights in
the parking lot beyond motion sensors all the time ensuring the safety of the
congregation and the community, thank you.
Mr. Thornton: Thank you, any questions of Mr. Sparrow, thank you sir.
Mr. Fisher: We do also have one more speaker Ms. Donna Willey. Please come to the
podium and she is also representing the Holland Pines Group, so she will get 10
minutes.
Ms. Willey: Good afternoon, my name is Donna Willey and I reside at 2900 Bald Eagle Bend
which is directly behind the parking lot in the church facility. Thank you for
having me here today to provide perspective on the proposed modification for
condition 8. I think it's important to note that we are here today because the
applicant never complied with the condition as required. The plans are approved
with insurance that the applicant would fully comply with all approved
conditions. The applicant has now retroactively proposed a modification simply
to avoid original obligations to the community. A proposed change strikes the
portion of the condition that requires the applicant to have the lights on motion
sensors because the scope of the project in the parking lot's location adjacent to
residential area, city council added that condition requiring motion sensors. The
adjacent home owner supported this requirement and continues to support this
requirement. We ask that the modification request be denied and that the
condition requiring motion sensors remain enforced as originally written. We
asked that the nine lights in the parking lot behind the home which is in the
northern section behind our homes remain off and on motion sensors only and to
only be manually turned on when this portion of the parking lot will be used for
events where attendance is high. We asked that the four lights behind the home
be fitted with the shields as required per the conditions. We ask that city council
clarify the meaning in use because the conditions did not provide the use of a
timer with a 10 p.m. cutoff and we do not feel either should be substituted for the
original language of in use. In use is a very standard language defined as, the
facility is being occupied. So perhaps the condition needs to be worded
differently so it's clear and concise and specifically states occupied, otherwise,
it's going to be an ongoing issue of semantics. Our desires can be supported
based on the following factors; the finished grade of the parking lot is now four
feet above the original grade of the land used to construct this parking lot. Every
tree was cut down in the buffer area between the church and the homes; these
were matured, tall trees that were to remain many us feasible per the conditions.
Those tall trees would have provided a sizable buffer to screen the parking lot
lights, the shrubs we have now are not healthy as they once were when originally
planted and they are actually shorter than it were at the time of planting. They
typically grow about a foot per year, if healthy and maintained; will be at least 10
years before they reach full height. The planning director believes they will grow
2-feet a year. I understand he wants to believe that but if that was the case, they
would be 6-foot tall today and they are barely 3-feet or under. The light poles in
the parking lot total of nine are 18 feet tall meaning that they stand 22 feet above
5
the adjacent lots. All fixtures are installed facing the homes where the light
shines directly into our backyards and our bedroom windows. The lighting in the
parking lot behind our homes spills over into our yards and homes because of
their proximity and a few lights are still not shielded. The condition states that all
lighting must be directed downward and not spill over into adjacent residential
lots. All lights that remain on for security, also must be shielded. Most
importantly in a direct contradiction to the condition none of the light fixtures are
on motion sensors. Every light fixture was ordered devoid of any option to fit the
motion sensors and shields which were require per the conditions. This is
important because these options would have satisfied the approved conditions for
abating excessive lighting at night and it would also be compatible with adjacent
homes. The motion sensors will control the light and alleviate excessive lighting
and a shield on every light would minimize clear and light spill over. These
options were mandated requirements specifically drafted into the CUP and agreed
to the applicant at the time of approval. There are nine lights installed in the
parking lot directly behind the adjacent homes, all lights down until 10 p.m. or
later, I am there every night and this is what I am seeing. Out of nine of those
lights, only six light poles have been retrofitted with shields. The light fixture
also remains on all night for security purpose and that light is required to be
shielded per the conditions. We continue to ask city management to ask the
applicant to abide by the condition and then install the remaining shields to follow
the CUP. The height and design of the light cannot be directed downward
without a shield. The church's engineer determined the parking lot lights were all
in compliance and not contribute and to spill over on our properties and for that
reason the city is not requiring shields on the remaining light poles that
determination however was made before any spillover assessment was done and
before any shields were even installed. We eventually performed a spillover
assessment on the church's property only with the lights on to get an accurate
reading of light spillover on our properties, he would have had to be standing on
our property and take the reading with the lights on and then another reading with
the lights off. Council woman Henley visited my home one evening and we
turned on every interior and exterior light in my home, my entire house was
illuminated from the backyard to the front door and yet the light engineer was
firm that the parking lot lights were not read into glare and spillover. His
determination was objectively false and the city at its own expense paid for
custom shields for security flood lights on the back of the building and it was also
documented that the city was offering to pay for the cost of all shields for the light
poles in the parking lot as well. This is clearly a condition. The proposed
modification eliminates the requirement from motion sensors in all lights.
However, the motion sensors were included in the condition for specific purposes
of protecting the security of the lot late at night but it also alleviating excessive
lighting when the facility was not in use. Motion sensors are a very practical
solution rather inexpensive considering the size of the lot. Motion sensors are
installed in a similar fixture and large parking lots in our city such as car
dealerships and a few parking garages and this was confirmed by another
reputable lighting company who said that lighting, motion sensors are very
6
practical solution given this is directly behind residential homes. The motion
sensors are also equipped with adjustable settings so you can calibrate the sensors
in terms of sensitivity, the area monitored and how long the triggered lights stays
on. The lights will not be triggered on and off by a leaf blowing or a squirrel
running, the estimate to install the sensors was 1800 dollars for all nine light poles
behind our homes; however, the applicant received quite a few other estimates of
approximately 14,000 to 15,000 and that cost is significantly higher only because
the applicant desires to keep the lights on a timer which takes precedence over the
sensors and requires an extensive wire again adding another circuit, so it can be
simply done. Motion sensor could have been added last January for only 1800
dollars. So that first estimate was provided to the applicant in January weeks after
the lights were installed. The largest source of dispute is the meaning not in use.
The applicant has stated that the facility is in use every night until 10 p.m. In
January, the city agreed to a temporary solution where the applicant may have the
lights on a timer that would automatically shut them off at 10 p.m. only until that
motion sensors were installed, today that has not even happened, for four or five
months city management was stating to us that they were requiring the church to
install the motion sensors; however, that wasn't true because the determination
letter was drafted, at the very beginning of January stating that the applicant was
opposed to the motion sensors. So for four or five months, city staff was telling
us that they were researching motion sensors, they were requiring the church to
add the motion sensors but that was never done. Now, the applicant seeks to
eliminate that portion of the condition making the temporary agreement a
permanent solution which completely undermines the spirit and intended purpose
of the condition itself Nowhere in the condition does it state anything about a 10
p.m. cutoff time or a timer, keeping lights on a timer, the applicant is left to
interpret in use by his own interpretation whereby the applicant has demonstrated
by using the timer, the lights will remain on every night regardless, which has
been the case for almost a year now. These modifications were unilaterally
crafted and implemented by the applicant under the pretense that the facility is in
use until 10 p.m. each night of the week; however, most nights the facility is not
in use and certainly not until 10 p.m. We are in the position where we feel like
we need to physically document this reality with pictures because applicant
statement of hours of operation is not a reflection of reality and what we are
actually seeing on a nightly basis and I have lived here for 22 years and the
pattern that remains tonight at night is the same pattern since the beginning when
I moved here 22 years ago. We understand that can change and we support the
church's growth and understand this could change and the light maybe required to
be on when the parking lot is completely utilized at night, just wanted to let you
know we are not oppose to any changes down the road if they grow larger. We
are in the position where we feel the nights, the facility is not used and certainly
not until 10 p.m. that we need to physically document this reality with pictures
because the hours of operations are not reflecting the reality of what we are seeing
on a nightly basis, sorry just repeated that. The facility is not in use on Friday,
Saturday, and Sunday evenings unless it's a holiday or special event and those
were the nights where we tend to be outside enjoying our homes.

Mr. Thornton: Can you wind up please; you hit your time limit.
Ms. Willey: Is it 10 minutes?
Mr. Thornton: Already.
Ms. Willey: It's been 10 minutes already, okay.
Mr. Thornton: Just one quick summary.
Ms. Willey: Lastly, the applicant sent an email stating that volume of cars arriving at night
will not be abundant and those cars will not be parking by the homes, they will
logically park closer to the building away from the homes. Given that emission,
motion sensors would best serve the interest of the applicant and alleviate
excessive lighting at night time, there are no cars arriving or staying late at night
for weeknight functions when cars leave around 8:30. There is no cleaning crew
staying until 10 p.m. and the reason for leaving the lights on from 9 until 10 p.m.,
was so his cleaning crew could leave; however, we don't feel that 20 lights have
to remain on when those cars, maybe it's one or two cars, they are parked directly
in front of the church and that is lit from dust to dawn, thank you.
Mr. Thornton: Okay, now before you go, does anybody have any questions of the speaker?
Ms. Kwasny: I do.
Mr. Thornton: Karen.
Ms. Kwasny: So Donna I just want to clarify, I know you had a myriad of other issues and
chairman Thornton had asked that you not delve into those and so first I
appreciated that you kept it focused on the lights, your request is for the lights to
be on the sensor at all times and so not on but on the sensor, correct and it's only
these lights within the purple framework, right.
Ms. Willey: Yeah, if they remain on the sensor, if anyone desired to drive past there or park
there, the lights would motion on and you can keep those on for 10-20 minutes
which is enough time if someone wanted to park back there, also it would save
electricity.
Ms. Kwasny: I just was asking, so I could very clearly state what that is and then the other thing
as you said that not all of the shields have been installed?
Ms. Willey: Correct, according to the conditions all lights must be shielded from the
residential adjacent homes in order to abate light spillover and control the light
downward. The only way is to do that is to shield. We did consult with another
reputable lighting engineer which came out to the site and before the shields were
installed and she is like these, none of the lights have a shield and she has never
done, and she does many churches and she works with these exact light pictures
and she said she has never done any project where the lights were not shielded.
So only six of the lights have shields because their lighting engineer has
determined from day one that all the lights are working fine and not contributing
to spillover on the property; however, I sent you a picture before any lights were
shielded and my entire house was illuminated inside and outside, that's before any
8
shields were added. The city reluctantly allocated the budget and covered the cost
as far as I was concerned of the shields but they said they would only do six
shields because the church's lighting engineer was adamant and said the lights
could not contribute to light spillover but I had another expert lighting engineer
who claims simply the light not be directed downward without a shield, otherwise
that bulb, the lights going to travel sideways, upwards, straight, I mean every
direction also contributing to night glow, so having the shields on the lights which
is better, now that we have six of them on the shields, if it's better and its
controlling the lights where it's forcing downward so there are still three lights
requiring shields.
Ms. Kwasny: Got it, okay, and thank you.
Mr. Thornton: Dee.
Ms. Oliver: I have couple of questions, when did Mrs. Henley come out?
Ms. Willey: She came out to my house in February to assess the lighting.
Ms. Oliver: Would that just be the day .
Ms. Willey: It's like mid February.
Ms. Oliver: Of this past year, okay and so she saw firsthand that the light was intrusive to
your home?
Ms. Willey: Yeah.
Ms. Oliver: Okay, question for city staff, the original condition, did that include those light
shields for those poles, my iPad is down so I can't and—.
Mr. Frankenfield: There is a difference between shields and shielding, so we installed shields
as recommended by the lighting engineer where they were recommended they
were needed, we did not install shields where our photometric calculations
showed they did not spillover.
Ms. Oliver: So the ones that we were, that you all that the city thought needed to be in place
were in place.
Mr. Frankenfield: Yes and the city did not pay for those shields.
Ms. Oliver: And when did that happen was that before or after Mrs. Henley was out?
Mr. Thornton: It had to be after.
Mr. Frankenfield: It was after.
Ms. Oliver: It was after and are they helping?
Ms. Willey: They are making it better but the lights that are not shielded which are further
placed at the other homes are away from me are definitely contributing the glare
and spillover.
9
Ms. Oliver: So the next question I have is, were they supposed to have timers on those lights;
I mean motion detectors sorry, motion detectors?
Mr. Frankenfield: That's the condition, yes.
Ms. Oliver: That was the original condition, okay; I just want to make sure, I just want to.
Mr. Frankenfield: When the church was not used to be used when the church is not use that
was the condition.
Ms. Willey: I believe yeah, the lights are to remain off on motion sensors only when it's not in
use, that's all I have.
Mr. Thornton: David Weiner.
Mr. Weiner: The lights that are further away from you, are those the lights on the church
themselves, those aren't the lights on the poles correct?
Ms. Willey: No, all the lights I am referring to that still require shields are in the parking lot
which is directly behind the homes.
Mr. Thornton: That's the area behind what's shown as existing building.
Ms. Willey: Yes sir, would you like me to point to them?
Mr. Thornton: No, I got it, the lights that are inside the purple box have shields but no sensors
and they are on a timer.
Ms. Willey: There are nine lots total, its right there, right there, they are only showing six.
There are nine lots total in that lot which is not used on the nightly basis, nine
lights total are required to have shields in order to for a light to say it's shielded,
you have to have it shield. I mean it's like having a LED light and reading the
book and without a shield or lampshade, I mean it's impossible, I mean you are
going to have a glare but if you put a shield on the light, that shield is the only
way it can direct the light downward. So there is a total of nine lights in that
parking lot according to the conditions that are supposed to be directed downward
and that can only be achieved with the shield on each light and again lighting
engineer that came and visited the site, she said there is absolutely, virtually no
possible way that the lights can be shielded without the shield and you have to
consider there are 18-foot tall fixtures elevated 5-feet above our properties
making them 22 feet tall. So they are shining directly into our bedroom window.
Mr. Thornton: So my question was the area in purple, I was under the impression they are six
lights, you are telling me there are nine lights, so there must be two more, must be
three more lights out front.
Ms. Willey: So six, seven, eight and there is one here nine.
Mr. Thornton: Okay, so.
Ms. Willey: There are a total of nine lights.
Mr. Thornton: But six lights have been shielded is that correct or have shield?
10
Mr. Frankenfield: Six lights have shields.
Mr. Thornton: Six lights have shields and you are saying there are nine lights over there, so that
means by my math, there are three that don't have shields.
Ms. Willey: Correct.
Mr. Thornton: Okay and then there are lights behind the existing building that have no shields?
Ms. Willey: No, the city paid for those shields and those are extremely bright so the city paid
for the shields of those lights.
Mr. Thornton: Behind the existing building.
Ms. Willey: Behind the building, there is about seven security lights which were outrageously
bright and they still are even with shields, it's little bit better but those lights
protrude right through those homes.
Mr. Thornton: So from a math count, there are three lights that need shields and all lights that
need motion sensors per your argument.
Ms. Willey: We are asking that only nine lights receive motion sensors and those three
remaining lights of those nine, receive shields, because the facility, the parking lot
is completely illuminated up front and back and along the side for anyone arriving
any time during the night, it's fully illuminated from dusk to dawn.
Mr. Thornton: What we are trying to do now is just figure out what might be a solution so if six
lights have shields, three lights don't have shields and none of the lights have
motion sensors, what you are wanting is that six lights that are shielded to have
motion sensors.
Ms. Willey: Nine lights.
Mr. Thornton: Nine lights, nine lights.
Ms. Willey: Though condition states that all, the condition states all parking lot lights must be
on motion sensors, which includes the lights up front but we are not asking for
that.
Mr. Thornton: Just those nine.
Ms. Willey: Just the nine and the cost estimate to get the motion sensors was on about $1800,
it's a very simple thing, you unscrew the light, put it in there and it has adjustable
settings where you can adjust the sensitivity, the movement, and the distance. So
they won't be going on.
Ms. Oliver: I want to clarify something.
Mr. Thornton: Let somebody else.
Ms. Oliver: I just want to clarify something,just, I think we all understand the shields and we
all understand the motion detectors. What I am not clear on maybe everybody
else is but I am not is every night seven nights a week, are those parking lot lights
the ones on the north side of the parking lot on, are they just on.
11
Ms. Willey: Yes until 10 p.m...
Ms. Oliver: Okay, so they have the switch, they are on until 9:50 p.m. every night.
Ms. Willey: They are on the timer, not 9:50, its 10 p.m. at the earliest.
Ms. Oliver: Okay, so are you asking or is the condition written because I am not quite sure I
am straight with this that you would, that the neighborhood prefers or the
condition asks for them to be on a motion detector instead of them just being on.
Ms. Willey: Yes, because that's what the condition states. The condition states that all parking
lot lights must remain off in the facilities not in use and on motion sensors only.
Ms. Oliver: But if it's in use the pastor of the church turns the lights on.
Ms. Willey: Well what we are saying is if both motion sensors are installed and the timers
removed, then if they have a large event like so in entire year like Christmas Eve,
New Year's Eve and Spring Revival those are the only nights that side parking lot
has been used where it's high attendance, simply they could just turn the,
manually turn them on and then turn them off when they are done and many
churches do that.
Ms. Oliver: Okay, I just, that's all I just was trying to, make sure I understood. No, no, you
are fine, I just wanted to make sure I understood clearly when they are on and
when they are off and what the neighborhood wanted.
Ms. Willey: Can I make another, maybe that might clear.
Ms. Oliver: Sure.
Ms. Willey: So a reason for making the request for all the lights to be on motion sensors and
off is because by his own admission, he acknowledged that the parking lot will
never be used at nights except for big events and there is a total of 50-60 spots
directly in front of the church behind and along the side where it's fully
illuminated from dusk to dawn making it safe and well lit for anyone arriving any
time during the night, that's where the front doors are and that's where the
parking now and that's why we are asking this.
Ms. Oliver: Perfect. That's correct.
Mr. Thornton: Dave Redmond.
Mr. Redmond:I would like to try and get, we have gotten away for off field I think talking about
what is, and isn't this, or isn't that. This is all about, this application is all about
that little paragraph right there, and I want to strike one line and add another, I
think it's important that we stay focused on that. She has hit on this which has to
do with whether or not there motion sensors has nothing to do with the elevation
of the parking lot, I don't care about that, has nothing to do with that. This
application is about striking that line, motion detectors on those lights and adding
a line that says parking lots in northern parking area shall be turned off when the
church is not in use, I suggest we stick to that.
12
Ms. Willey: And that's the issue we are having because.
Mr. Redmond:You made that quite clear. You have been quite clear.
Ms. Willey: Okay.
Mr. Thornton: We are good, any other questions for the speaker, thank you.
Ms. Willey: Okay, thank you so much for your time.
Mr. Thornton: Anybody else signed up to speak, okay good, will the applicant care to come back
with any rebuttal, pastor.
Mr. Williams: Very quickly, I want to state for the record and I can be corrected if you can that
our condition does not state that we are supposed to have shields on our lights. If
I am not mistaken that was never put in there. However, there were some
complaints from the community stating that the lights were bright. I requested an
engineer to come out and do a testing because I think according to policy that we
cannot have any spillover of lighting on our neighboring property, that test was
done and there was no spillover in our neighboring property. Our engineer come
out to do a second test and to make sure that the moon wasn't shining and to ask
all our neighbors to turn off their lights so that there wouldn't be a misreading, I
wanted to get as accurate of our reading as possible. He did that, he looked that
the calendar came out on a day where the moon was not illuminated, turned our
lights on again, did another testing and again there was no spillover so by policy
or condition, the church did not have to shield it's lights; however, because we
heard from the community that though there was no spillover, they felt that the
LED lights were still offensive to look at. I instructed our staff to go ahead and
approve for shields to be put on. The lights were already shining downward
alright. There was no spillover at all but to be a good neighbor alright, we
installed the shields. And the reasoning for the shields on six lights instead of
nine is because there is no property, no housing development where these three
lights, they were not shielded are, so we felt that there was no need to put shields
right there because there is no home right there. We put shields on the lights that
will closer to the residents even though there was no spillover. We installed those
shields anyway alright so they wouldn't be offensive per say to look at as some of
our residents were saying. The other thing is you know what Piney Grove wanted
initially is to do what every other church in the city does and that's just to simply
keep our parking lights on all night long just like every other church does. We
ride down the street and we see every other church with their lights on all night
long but again to be a good neighbor, we agreed to cut our lights off, when our
lights are not in use, in use is the word that was keeping thrown around does not
mean when there is 50 people inside the building, I interpreted in use to mean
according to business hours. If you are going to McDonalds and you don't see
one car in the parking lot, getting burgers or french fries, they don't turn their
lights off because there are no people in there eating, they keep their lights on
according to their business hours. We feel like it's fair that if we don't agree to
cut our lights off and not leave our lights on just like every other church in the
city does, we agree to cut them off at 9:50 when our business hours are over.
13
Again our last ministries are done around 8:30 or 9, they have that time to come
in, do their rehearsal, do whatever they are doing and we give our cleanup person
who is on staff opportunity to cleanup and get out at about 9:50 or 10 p.m.
Mr. Thornton: Red light came on;just give me a quick windup.
Mr. Williams: So again I just want to make sure that the planning commission is staying true to
the issue, we are not trying to avoid anything, we have gone over and above about
the things that we did not have to do, all we want to do is how this condition to be
stricken off that we do not have to do these motion sensors because it's not
relevant for the church anymore. We feel that we have enough illumination with
the lights that are closer to the church and they keep us safe and that's all I have.
Mr. Thornton: Thank you, any questions for the speaker, thank you sir.
Mr. Williams: Thank you.
Mr. Horsley: I have one question, would you consider putting the shields on those other three
lights?
Mr. Williams: It doesn't affect me at all; again that nobody lives there, so that's the reason. If it
has been fits to community, the shields that are closer to the people that spoke
those lights are already shielded, so I don't see why these three lights would
further.
Mr. Horsley: They indicate they like to have those three shielded as far I am asking, would you
consider doing that?
Mr. Williams: If they wanna pay for it, the city wants to pay for it, I don't care.
Mr. Horsley: In other words, you don't think that the church wants to do that.
Mr. Williams: I don't think that the church wants to do that because it is not impacting anyone at
all, there is nothing that but trees and concrete.
Mr. Thornton: Okay thank you.
Mr. Williams: Thank you.
Mr. Thornton: With that, we will close the public hearing and make it open to comment,
discussion and possibly a motion, questions, Dave Redmond.
Mr. Redmond:So I think Mr. Frankenfield will confirm, that there are times when things get
through this body and city council that are unintended and have unintended
consequences and sometimes they make your life difficult.
Mr. Frankenfield: I am not answering.
Mr. Redmond:But I think it's quite, I think that's clear. I am unaware, any other church, any
other shopping center, any other commercial building, any ball field that has
lights that are required to have motion sensors on them, I have never heard of that
here. I have never heard that in commercial industry and that's the industry I
work in. So to me how this got between planning commission and city council in
14
here I don't understand how that happened, but I have never seen it. I have never
seen it required of anybody else, I think pastor makes a good point when he says
this requires us to do something that's not required of any other people, I get that
there are neighbors who don't like the expansion of this church, I mean, that's
pretty clear, nonetheless seems to me we would be treating them quite unfairly
and unlike we treat every other commercial operation of which I am aware and I
am unaware of that kind of treatment applied to anybody else, so if that's not true,
let me know by the way because I just don't know, maybe but I have never seen
it, so I just don't know that we do that, so anyway it seems to me that they are
trying to make a good faith effort to shield these lights again I don't want to get
mixed up in your mnemonics but to try and minimize the impact of these lights is
common frankly for commercial buildings to have lights on, at a certain time of
night and then turn them off, so that strikes me as sufficient and so I would be
supportive of the application.
Mr. Thornton: Jeff.
Mr. Hodgson: I have a slightly different take, I think sometimes it comes down to being a good
neighbors and working together and try to come up with the solution that may not
be the cookie cutter answer all the way across the city, but a unique one, and
when I went to the site, I think it was last Thursday, and I know we're not going
to talk about the other issues but I was kind of shocked at what I saw there and
how I am actually looking into people's backyards from the front parking lot and
if a concession that they are asking for are just those sensors which I have a hard
time believing they are going to be the cause that I was told to put on there, I
don't think it's a lot to ask for what ended up there in their backyard so and it's
what was in the application, so I can go with the neighbor on this one.
Mr. Thornton: Alright, David Weiner and then.
Mr. Weiner: Back little bit on that, I mean, when the application left here and city council, the
residents were thinking sensors and like Jeff said when we drove in there I had no
idea that parking lot was that high, we were not certainly thinking about so I am
kind of torn, and I and Jeff are little torn I don't know which direction to go in, I
feel like they really need to have some type of sensors, it seems like we were
talking about the timer earlier, timers are not working apparently so I am little
torn, I don't know which way to go.
Mr. Thornton: Karen.
Ms. Kwasny: I am not torn at all, I think that condition was put in there and the process of city
council and the community was agreeable to it because it would allow them a
level of comfort and safety and privacy, a sense of privacy and we aren't talking
about the issues that have exacerbated that situation but they are part of the
consideration nevertheless and I think the sensors are reasonable compromise to
provide them with a level of quality of life that they are now lacking and so I am
not torn on it, I feel strongly that the sensors are reasonable compromise, they are
inexpensive, they can be put on the sensitivity levels that won't necessitate them
15
going on when the squirrel crosses the lot and I think it's a reasonable
compromise to add to put it back in or leave it in as it is.
Ms. Oliver: To me, it's obvious that it's affecting the quality of life of the neighbors and we
do try to be good neighbors and when we are looking at people expanding their
businesses and they impact the residential area, we are very mindful of even
though we are not supposed to address it and we are only supposed to address the
lights but we are looking at the landscaping and things like that and it's obvious
that it's missing because that's part of what we apply to these applications to
protect the neighbors from commercial when it butts up against each other is the
landscaping and the lights and the wattage of the lights and is there a shield and
can these people sleep at night and what's the traffic like, what's the noise like
and all of those things factor in and in this case this is affecting greatly when one
of the council members goes in and can see the light shining in their houses and
even with the shields it still affecting them, then I think that you know it's, we
have to look at that strongly and I don't think that asking the church to be good
neighbor is too much to ask, so.
Mr. Thornton: Any other questions, I want if you all will look at paragraph eight, it's kind of
interesting that what has been taken out is all parking lot lighting shall be on
motion sensors at night when the church is not in use and that means when
nobody is there, the lights are off but they can come on if somebody runs across
the parking lot, what they are asking for is that the parking lot lights be turned off
when the church is not in use, meaning there is no way for them to come back on.
So for the neighborhood sake if the motion sensors are put back there and the
lights are out when the church is not in use, they could come on and go off and
come on and go off all night long if dogs, squirrels, cats, rabbits, or garbage bags
blow across the yard, if they have the condition that they are asking for and the
lights are off, they are not coming back on, the motion sensors not going to kick
them on, kick them off, it's only when it's not in use, the condition for both of
these conditions is not in use. So one not in use conditions is if they are off and
the other not in use conditions is they are on a motion sensor so be careful what
you ask for because if you make the church put a motion sensor in when they are
not in use, they can come on and go off and come on and go off all night long and
whether they will do that somebody has said you can adjust them in the sensitivity
such so just be aware of the way this wording is for the rest of us on this
commission if they are off when they are off and they cannot come back on they
are off, but if they are off on a motion sensor, they can come back on and go off
so I just wanted to point out that these two items are not that different other than
in one case they can come on and go off and come on and go off all night long
and the other condition is that they cannot come back on if they are off, if it's a
switch and they are off they are off. So I want us to consider that when we decide
what to do with this matter, does that make sense, that's the way it's worded
that's exactly, it's not saying that they have to be on when the church is, it's not
saying that they have to be on when the church is in use, it's when it's not in use.
Okay, so it's not going to fix much especially if you have a lot of coyotes and fox
16
and trash bags blown around the neighborhood, they go come on and go off and
come on and go off all night long.
Mr. Horsley: What you say is exactly right Bob but I am not sure that that's going to fix what
these people's problem is, you know, I mean the timer when they go off at 9:50,
they go off and then they come back on at the next night whenever they got the
timer set to come back on. So I mean, but if you put them on a motion detector,
you know, they can come on any time during the night and they will, I mean, and
that would entice people even more to drive, you know, two or three guys go back
in parking and drink beer or whatever at night and the lights come on, you know,
maybe they want them to do that if they are going to do that but I am just saying
that come on, so I think really the situation where they go off with the timer and
they are off for all night, rest of the night.
Mr. Thornton: Anyway that you know if you read it very carefully when they are off, they are
off, when it's not in use, they are off, they have told and they have agreed in both
conditions when they turn them off, when they are not there, they turn them off
and in one case, they can come back on off and on, off and on and in the other
case, they cannot come back on, to put on the timer.
Mr. Horsley: I think in my understanding, the resident should like them to stay on the motion
detector all the time.
Ms. Kwasny: Instead of them being on.
Mr. Horsley: And instead of them being on from 7-10 at night but then they would go on and
off all night along.
Mr. Thornton: My guess is that they will be back here in a few months and you know this is not
right because it's driving us crazy with lights on and lights off and lights on and
lights off.
Mr. Kwasny: You know Bob, we close the public hearing but it might have been interesting to
ask Donna the question as to why she would want something like that versus what
you just explained because I mean that's the concern perhaps that's the concern
the community needs to hear that there isn't that great of a distinction except that
the lights go on at night and if the lights are going on at night because somebody
is in the parking lot that might be exactly what they want.
Mr. Thornton: Well, I don't know the answer to that; I just want to point out what the reality is
once we make a decision.
Mr. Redmond:Ideal would be if they always went off at 10 o'clock and if they weren't in use,
the sensors would turn them on during days of not use up until 10 o'clock so it
almost be a combination of those two, so that you never had, that I don't know if
it could easily be done or not, but the lights would always cutoff at 10 but they
turn on with the sensors up until 10 when traffic or something is seen there, but.
Mr. Thornton: They don't have any requirement to turn them off now if they are there. If they
are there, they are going to turn them all on, if one person is there, two people are
there or 20 people, they can do that by right. Dave.
17
Mr. Redmond:You know we're not writing this from scratch. This is a specific application.
This applicant asked to strike that one line and add the other, so that's we are
looking at. We are not drafting, not sitting down drafting a brand new paragraph
on something like that and any applicant has a right to have their application
heard. I think we should stick to that.
Mr. Thornton: Okay, we will allow the motion, anybody wants to make a motion, hang on.
Ms. Kwasny: Bob, I have a question, I think we should Ms. WIlley that, Kay said that we can
bring her back up to ask that question.
Mr. Thornton: Okay.
Ms. Kwasny: I mean, you are striking a line to, the applicant would like to strike a line and the
community would like the line to remain in and I think that we should ask her if
you don't see a distinction or one we see as more valuable as a commission, it
would be good to know whether or not, why the community wants something
different.
Mr. Thornton: Glad to ask her back up, would you grace us with your presence in a minute or
less.
Ms. Willey: So I definitely want to clarify that motion sensors are very practical and they are
used in large dealerships throughout the city. The reason being for protection, the
parking lot behind my home it's hidden from the street, it's a very dark corner and
the motion sensors would only come in play with heavy movement such as a car,
they will not be come on and off, you can probably visit a car dealership, they
only come on with heavy movement like if there is a car or car decided to come
back here and the reason we are asking for motion sensors is not because there
won't be any nuisance because they all have adjustable settings where you can set
it at a low sensitivity level from zero meaning it would come on with the leaf or
10 where it would only be come on with car movement and the reason for that is
because we do have cars loitering back there in the middle of the night, throwing
beer bottles, blasting their music loud and I get up and I turn my right floodlights
on, this is happening several times 2-3 a.m. and as soon as I turn that light on,
they leave so that is the purpose for having motion sensors so it gives us that extra
sense of security but you have to understand these are just not like motion sensors
we put in the home, they have all adjustable settings that they are made for this
particular reason.
Mr. Thornton: We got it that answered your question Karen?
Ms. Kwasny: Yeah, thank you.
Mr. Thornton: Anybody else, Mike.
Mr. Inman: I will make a motion, we deny the application.
Mr. Thornton: Do I have a second?
Ms. Kwasny: Yeah second.
18
Mr. Thornton: Alright have a motion, have a second.
Ms. Dozier: Vote is open.
Mr. Fisher: By vote of 7-3, the agenda item number six has been denied.

AGENDA ITEM
ITEM: COASTAL VIRGINIA UNITARIAN UNIVERSALISTS [Applicant] UNITARIAN
CHURCH OF NORFOLK (UNITARIAN UNIVERSALIST) [Property Owner]
Modification of Conditions (Religious Use) at the property located at 809 S.
Military Highway (GPIN 1456260036), COUNCIL DISTRICT — KEMPSVILLE.
MEETING DATE: January 15, 2019
• Background:
On January 5, 2016, City Council approved a Conditional Use Permit for a
Religious Use on this property. The applicant is requesting to modify Condition 4
that states that "any signs that are illuminated must use an external source of light
to better integrate with the building's architecture." The church proposes to use
both an internal and external lighting source to illuminate the proposed
freestanding sign, with a stated purpose "to ensure that the sign is visible from the
roadway at night."
• Considerations:
While Staff prefers an external source of illumination for the freestanding sign, as
it will be more in keeping with the traditional architecture of the building on the
property, the sign does meet the sign requirements of the Zoning Ordinance. While
it diminishes integration with the buildings architecture, the design of the sign will
not adversely impact the surrounding area. No other changes to the existing
conditions are proposed.
• Recommendations:
City Staff recommends approval of this request. The Planning Commission placed
this item on the Consent Agenda, passing a motion by a recorded vote of 10-0, to
recommend approval of this request.
All conditions of the January 5, 2016 Conditional Use Permit shall be deleted and
replaced with the following conditions listed below:
1. Other than dead, dying or diseased trees, to the best extent possible, existing
trees in front of the building along South Military Highway should be preserved
and properly maintained.
2. The existing parking lot shall be restriped clearly to delineate the parking
spaces. In addition, handicap parking spaces shall be installed and shall
Coastal Virginia Unitarian Universelists

comply with the requirements of the American's with Disabilities Act (ADA) with
regard to the amount required and marking.
3. All necessary permits and a Certificate of Occupancy shall be obtained before
occupancy and use of the building as a church.
4. Any on-site signage shall meet the requirements of the City Zoning Ordinance.
A separate sign permit shall be obtained from the Department of Planning &
Community Development for the installation of any signage.

Background and Summary of Proposal
• On January 5, 2016, City Council approved a Conditional Use Permit for a Religious Use on this property.
• The Coastal Virginia Unitarian Universalists,formerly known as Unitarian Church of Norfolk, was established in
1930.The church relocated from Norfolk to Virginia Beach to this 9.50-acre site to accommodate the church's
projected growth. The applicant's intent was to renovate the building and not propose any significant
modifications to the site or to the exterior of the building.
• The applicant is requesting a Modification of Conditions to modify Condition 4 of the Conditional Use Permit
that states that"any signs that are illuminated must use an external source of light to better integrate with the
building's architecture."The church proposes to use both an internal and external lighting source to illuminate
the proposed freestanding sign, with a stated purpose "to ensure that the sign is visible from the roadway at
night."
• The applicant is proposing to internally illuminate several features of the monument sign to include the flame,
the wave,the lettering, and the heron, as depicted on the proposed sign elevations on page six of this report.

Evaluation and Recommendation
As stated previously, the applicant is requesting to modify Condition 4 of the Conditional Use Permit,which requires that
only an external source of light be used to illuminate on-site signage. While Staff prefers an external source of
illumination for the freestanding sign, as it will be more in keeping with the traditional architecture of the building on
the property,the sign does meet the sign requirements of the Zoning Ordinance. While it diminishes integration with
the buildings architecture,the design of the sign will not adversely impact the surrounding area. No other changes to the
existing conditions are proposed.
Based on the considerations above, Staff recommends approval of this request subject to the modified conditions
below.
Recommended Conditions
All conditions of the January 5, 2016 Conditional Use Permit shall be deleted and replaced with the following conditions
listed below:
1. Other than dead, dying or diseased trees,to the best extent possible, existing trees in front of the building along
South Military Highway should be preserved and properly maintained.
2. The existing parking lot shall be restriped clearly to delineate the parking spaces. In addition, handicap parking
spaces shall be installed and shall comply with the requirements of the American's with Disabilities Act (ADA)
with regard to the amount required and marking.
3. All necessary permits and a Certificate of Occupancy shall be obtained before occupancy and use of the building
as a church.
4. Any on-site signage shall meet the requirements of the City Zoning Ordinance. A separate sign permit shall be
obtained from the Department of Planning& Community Development for the installation of any signage.
Comprehensive Plan Recommendations
The Comprehensive Plan designates this site as being located within the Suburban Focus Area 8—Military Highway
Corridor.This area includes both sides of Military Highway.The general pattern of land uses along this corridor has
remained essentially unchanged for decades. North of Indian River Road,the western side of S. Military Highway
consists of a low to medium density residential area and on the eastern side it largely consists of light industrial uses
including auto and truck sales, rentals, and repairs, outdoor storage, and warehousing. The land along S. Military
Highway, south of Indian River Road, is zoned and used for commercial purposes. New and redeveloped uses should
improve the aesthetic of this corridor through high quality building design, signage, and landscaping.
Natural and Cultural Resources Impacts
The site is adjacent to the Elizabeth River and is located within the Chesapeake Bay Watershed. A majority of the site is
located in the Resource Protection Area (RPA),the most stringently regulated portion of the Chesapeake Bay
Preservation Area. In addition,the property is located in the AE Flood zone; however, no alterations or improvements
are proposed for this area. No new development is proposed within the environmentally sensitive portions of the
property. There do not appear to be any known significant cultural resources associated with this site.

Coastal Virginia Unitarian Universalists
Modification of Conditions (Religious Use)
809 South Military Highway
District— Kempsville
December 12th, 2018
CONSENT
Mr. Thornton: Thank you. The next order of business we will address are those items that had
been placed on the consent agenda, the Vice Chair will handle this portion of the
agenda.
Ms. Oliver: Thank you Mr. Chairman, this afternoon we have six items on the consent agenda.
The first matter is item number one and this is an application for a Modification
of Conditions for a religious use on property located at 809 South Military
Highway in the Kempsville District. Is there a representative for this application?
Hi, how do you do, would you please state your name for the record?
Mr. Bevon: Yes, I am Leo Bevon. I represent Unitarian Church of Norfolk, which is now
called Coastal Virginia Unitarian Universalists.
Ms. Oliver: Wonderful, are the conditions set forth in the application good with you?
Mr. Bevon: Yes.
Ms. Oliver: Great thank you very much. Is there any opposition to this matter being placed on
the consent agenda? Hearing none, the Chairman has asked Commissioner
Weiner to read this into the record please.
Mr. Weiner: Thank you Mrs. Oliver. This is a Modification of Conditions for religious use.
On January 5th, 2016 City Council approved a Conditional Use Permit for a
religious use on this property. The church relocated from Norfolk to Virginia
Beach to the 9.50-acre site to accommodate the church's projected growth. The
applicant is requesting a modification of condition four which states any signs that
are illuminated must use an external source of light. The church proposes to use
both an internal and external lighting source to illuminate the proposed
freestanding sign, with that stated purpose "to ensure that the sign is visible from
the roadway at night." We recommend approval and put it on the consent agenda.
Mr. Thornton: I wanted to make a comment on this application before it leaves the screen up
there. So, this building was built in 1959, it was built by Tidewater Construction
Company and at that time it was a state of the art facility. It was so far out into
Princess Anne County that it had no water and no sewer and I have no
1
involvement in it today, but I was actually the broker that sold this property to the
church and they have gone in and spent millions of dollars rehabbing this facility
and it's just when I was trying to find somebody to buy it. I hated to see it torn
down, it's got a slight roof, copper gutters, it was just a magnificent structure. I
want to publicly commend them for what they have done. I have actually been in
it since you have opened and when you drive by, it's just an elegant stately
building and I am so thankful that you all were able to save it because it was
rehabbed several people that wanted to tear it down and it would have been a real
shame to tear it down such a beautiful building, so thank you for your work and I
can vote on it,because I have no financial involvement today, so thank you.
Ms. Oliver: Thank you. Mr. Chairman I would like to move to approve consent agenda items
number one, four, six, seven, D2 and D4 to be approved.
Mr. Thornton: Thank you, I have a motion to approve the items on the consent agenda, do I have
a second, Mr. Ripley?
Mr. Horsley: I will second.
Mr. Thornton: Seconded by Mr. Horsley.
Mr. Ripley: I have a couple of disclosures on that abstention if you don't mind Mr. Chairman.
First disclosure and these would disclose because I will be voting on these matters
okay, the first one is item number seven, I own the property across the street and I
just want to disclose that, although, I have no interest in this property or any
financial ventures, I do want that to be known. Also item number D4, the
applicant has issued his listed TowneBank as the lender, I am disclosing that I am
a member of the TowneBank Advisory Board in Chesapeake and I have a letter
on file with the clerk that stating and TowneBank is not the applicant and I have
no interest and it has no interest that I know having this, at least I don't and since
the planning commission has recommendation and advisory council, does not
make the final decision, I disclose I will be voting on this matter as well and I do
want to abstain on item D2 which is the ordinance with the B-4K. I have my own
property in this District, it effects the property I owned, I don't necessarily agree
with the ordinance, but I am abstaining on voting.
Mr. Thornton: And I need to not vote on, no, no I am sorry I need to disclose in item seven, the
company that I work for is handling the brokerage of that, I have no financial
interest in it and I will be voting on it, but I did want to disclose that. Can we
have a motion and a second, any other conflicts we need to disclose?
Ms. Sandloop: Vote is open. By vote of 10-0, items one, four, six, seven, D2, and D4
have been approved by consent with Commissioner Ripley abstaining from item
D2.

CITY OF VIRGINIA BEACH
AGENDA ITEM
ITEM: ANTONIO AZEVEDO [Applicant & Property Owner] Conditional Use Permit
(Bulk Storage Yard) and Conditional Rezoning (R-10 Residential to
Conditional I-1 Light Industrial & R-10 Residential) at the property located
at 311 S. Birdneck Road (GPIN 2417416994), COUNCIL DISTRICT — BEACH.
MEETING DATE: January 15, 2019
• Background:
The applicant has operated a Bulk Storage Yard in the rear of the property for
several years, as he was unaware of the need for a Conditional Use Permit. The
subject 17,000 square-foot flag lot, located along Birdneck Road, is zoned both I-
1 Light Industrial and R-10 Residential Districts. In addition, the site is located
within the Greater than 75 dB DNL noise zone and the Accident Potential Zone 2.
Construction and landscape materials, as well as supplies and equipment are
stored on the industrially-zoned, western portion of the property. The stem of the
flag lot, which provides vehicular access to the site from Birdneck Road and to
the adjacent single-family dwelling, is currently zoned R-10 Residential. Due to
established Virginia case law, the vehicular access to a property must be zoned
similarly to the zoning of the property that benefits from such access. As such,
the applicant has submitted a request to rezone the 15-foot wide accessway from
R-10 Residential to Conditional I-1 Light Industrial, and to rezone the remaining
(8,200 square feet of residential property to Conditional R-10 Residential.
• Considerations:
This site poses a challenge to blend the uses allowed in the highest noise zone
and within the Accident Potential Zone 2 with uses that are compatible with the
existing residential dwellings in the vicinity. The Bulk Storage Yard is located
well within the site, approximately 440 feet from Birdneck Road and
approximately 200 feet from the adjacent residential property line. On three
sides of the storage area, there is a fence and trees, as well as properties
currently zoned I-1 Light Industrial. The applicant has offered a proffer that
ensures that a large portion of the site will serve as a buffer between the Bulk
Storage Yard and the existing single-family dwelling.
Although less than ideal, both the adjacent single-family dwelling and the subject
site share a common access point off of S. Birdneck Road. As the
ingress/egress easement is located on the subject property, and additional curb
cuts on S. Birdneck Road are not desirable, this arrangement is acceptable. The
Antonio Azevedo
Page 2 of 3
screening proposed along the accessway will aid in screening the vehicles entering
and exiting the storage yard from the existing single-family dwelling. Additionally,
conditions are recommended that address hours of operation, signage, lighting,
screening and permitted uses.
• Recommendations:
City Staff recommends approval of this request. The Planning Commission placed
this item on the Consent Agenda, passing a motion by a recorded vote of 10-0, to
recommend approval of this request.
1. When the property is developed, it shall be in substantial conformance with the
submitted Concept Plan entitled, "CHATHAM PARCEL B 31652.11 SQ. FT. BY
PLAT GPIN 2417416994," prepared by Marine Engineering, which has been
exhibited to the Virginia Beach City Council and is on file in the Department of
Planning & Community Development.
2. Evergreen shrubs reaching a minimum height of four feet at the time of maturity
shall be installed to the north of the paved access driveway starting at the front
corner of the single-family dwelling and running parallel to the accessway to the
rear property line. Said shrubs shall planted at a distance on center as determined
by the Development Services Center Landscape Architect once the exact species
is determined.
3. The use of the site shall be for the storage of materials associated with a
landscaping or construction contracting business such as pavers, stones, brick,
sod or plants or parked vehicles associated with the business. There shall be no
other activity than the storage, pickup, or delivery of goods to the site.
4. There shall be no freestanding sign associated with the Bulk Storage Yard.
5. No retail uses shall be conducted on the property.
6. No customers or members from the general public shall be permitted on the site.
7. The Bulk Storage Yard shall be closed and no activity including loading or
offloading may occur in the bulk storage area except between the hours of 7:00
a.m. and 5:00 p.m. or dark, whichever is earlier.
8. There shall be no storage of boats; wrecked, inoperable or towed vehicles; or
containers on the site.
9. All materials within the Bulk Storage Yard may be stacked no taller than six feet in
height.
10.If outdoor lighting is proposed, the applicant shall submit a Photometric Plan shall
be submitted for review and shall contain foot-candle lighting readings for all areas
Antonio Azevedo
Page 3 of 3
of the site including the perimeter. Said plan shall also specify light fixture height,
light fixture type, proposed shielding, and light dimming capabilities.
11.All outdoor lighting fixtures on the site shall be no taller than 14 feet in height.
12.All outdoor lighting fixtures shall be shielded away from the adjacent residential
uses.
13.Any outdoor lighting on the site can be no closer than 440 feet from S. Birdneck
Road.
14.All light fixtures shall be equipped with automatic photocell on/off and include
dimming and or programmable dimming to dim the lumen output to 50%. The
automatic dimming should be the manufacturer's standard but as a minimum shall
dim to 50%. All lighting fixtures shall be dimmed to 50% the lumen output after
7:00 p.m.
15. ADA accessible restrooms shall be installed on the site within one year of City
Council approval.

Background and Summary of Proposal
• The subject 17,000 square-foot flag lot, located along Birdneck Road, is zoned both I-1 Light Industrial and R-10
Residential Districts. In addition,the site is located within the Greater than 75 dB DNL noise zone and the
Accident Potential Zone 2.
• The applicant has operated a Bulk Storage Yard in the rear of the property without the benefit of a Conditional
Use Permit. Construction and landscape materials, as well as supplies and equipment are stored on the
industrially-zoned, western portion of the property. In September 2015,the applicant was informed of the need
for a Conditional Use Permit to continue operation of the storage yard, and was cited for a Zoning violation. In
January of 2016,the applicant submitted a Conditional Use Permit application. Since that time,the applicant has
been working with Staff to clean up the property and to determine the best course forward.
• The stem of the flag lot,which provides vehicular access to the site from Birdneck Road, is currently zoned R-10
Residential. The paved access runs immediately adjacent to a single-family dwelling.Trucks going to and from
the storage yard must use this accessway, as there is no other alternative route to the industrially-zoned portion
of the site. Due to established Virginia case law,the vehicular access to a property must have like zoning to the
larger site. As such,the applicant has submitted a request to rezone the 15-foot wide accessway from R-10
Residential to Conditional I-1 Light Industrial, leaving the remainder of the R-10 portion of the property(8,200
square feet) as residentially-zoned.This accessway also provides ingress and egress from Birdneck Road to the
adjacent parcel (309 S. Birdneck Road).

• The applicant proposes to plant evergreen shrubs along the length of the paved accessway to provide additional
screening to the existing single-family dwelling.
• The remaining 8,200 square feet is proposed to be zoned to Conditional R-10 with a proffer prohibiting the
development of the site with a residential use. This prohibition is consistent with the AICUZ, as residential uses
are not compatible in the highest noise zone and within the APZ-2. As the property maintains the residential
zoning, rather than an industrial zoning, little development can occur on the property which is ideal for the
adjacent residential property owner.
• As there is an existing single-family dwelling, constructed in 2016, on the adjacent lot,the applicant proposes to
provide a substantial buffer beyond minimum requirements between the light industrial uses and the existing
single-family dwelling.
• An existing solid 10-foot tall wooden fence exists along the eastern property line of the site, creating a
substantial physical barrier between the existing residence and this property.This fence exceeds the maximum
permitted height for a fence, which is eight feet, necessitating a deviation from the Zoning Ordinance.
• A treed buffer along with a six-foot tall wooden fence surrounds the Bulk Storage Yard, and provides screening
of the storage area from the adjacent properties to the north,south and west.

• Although no restroom facilities currently exist on the site,the applicant intends on extending public utilities and
installing an ADA compliant restroom within the next year. Staff recommends a condition to ensure that this is
accomplished.

both the Suburban Focus Area 9 (SFA): Historic Seatack and the Special Economic Growth Area 1 (SEGA)—East Oceana.
Both of these areas are identified as being ideal for light industrial non-residential uses, as long as compatibility issues
are addressed. In this case,Staff views this as significant buffering and proffers that restrict land uses.The Bulk Storage
Yard is located well within the site, approximately 440 feet from Birdneck Road and approximately 200 feet from the
adjacent residential property line. On three sides of the storage area,there is a fence and trees, as well as properties
currently zoned I-1 Light Industrial. The applicant has offered a proffer that ensures that a large portion of the site will
serve as a buffer between the Bulk Storage Yard and the existing single-family dwelling.
Although less than ideal, both the adjacent single-family dwelling, located at 309 S. Birdneck Road, and the subject site
share a common access point off of S. Birdneck Road. As the ingress/egress easement is located on the subject
property, and additional curb cuts on S. Birdneck Road are not desirable,Staff finds this arrangement acceptable. The
additional screening of the accessway from the proposed additional plant material will assist with further compatibility
between the storage yard and the existing single-family dwelling.
This site poses a challenge to blend the uses allowed under Article 18 of the City's Zoning Ordinance, with uses that are
compatible with the existing residential dwellings in the vicinity. In Staff's opinion, low-impact, low-intensity uses such
as the proposed Bulk Storage Yard are appropriate adjacent to residential uses, provided sufficient protections are in
place. Factors such as appropriate screening and potential noise generation must be examined to ensure compatibility
with the surrounding uses and to protect adjacent properties from potential intrusive impacts. Staff recommends a
condition that the hours of operation be limited to between 7:00 a.m.and 5:00 p.m. or dark,whichever is earlier to
Antonio Azevedo
Agenda Item 6
Page 3
avoid potential noise generated during typically quiet hours and a condition that the only activity that shall take place on
the site will be the dropping off, picking up, and storage of material.
In sum,with the protections brought forth by the submitted proffers and with the recommended conditions, Staff finds
the request acceptable and recommends approval.
Proffers
The following are proffers submitted by the applicant as part of a Conditional Zoning Agreement(CZA).The applicant,
consistent with Section 107(h) of the City Zoning Ordinance, has voluntarily submitted these proffers in an attempt to
"offset identified problems to the extent that the proposed rezoning is acceptable," (§107(h)(1)).Should this application
be approved,the proffers will be recorded at the Circuit Court and serve as conditions restricting the use of the property
as proposed with this change of zoning.
Proffer 1:
When the portion of the Property which is the subject of this Conditional Rezoning is developed, it shall be solely as an
improved driveway to access the existing I-1 Industrial District Zoned westernmost 16,921.56 square feet of the Property
from Birdneck Road substantially as depicted on the"REZONING EXHIBIT—CHATHAM PARCEL B 31652.11 SQ. FT. BY

Beach City Council and is on file with the Virginia Beach Department of Planning(hereinafter"Zoning Exhibit").
Proffer 2:
The portion of the Property containing 8,164.45 square feet which remains in the R-10 Residential Zoning District shall
not be developed for a residential use.
Proffer 3:
Further conditions may be required by the Grantee during detailed Site Plan and/or Subdivision review and
administration of applicable City Code requirements.
Staff Comments:
The submitted proffers ensure that the access to the site shall be like zoned as required by Virginia case law. The
proffers also limit future residential development on the parcel while also maintaining a sizeable buffer between the
proposed use and the existing single-family dwelling.
Recommended Conditions
1. When the property is developed, it shall be in substantial conformance with the submitted Concept Plan
entitled, "CHATHAM PARCEL B 31652.11 SQ. FT. BY PLAT GPIN 2417416994," prepared by Marine Engineering,
which has been exhibited to the Virginia Beach City Council and is on file in the Department of Planning&
Community Development.
2. Evergreen shurbs reaching a minimum height of four feet at the time of maturity shall be installed to the north
of the paved access driveway starting at the front corner of the single-family dwelling and running parallel to the
accessway to the rear property line. Said shrubs shall planted at a distance on center as determined by the
Development Services Center Landscape Architect once the exact species is determined.
3. The use of the site shall be for the storage of materials associated with a landscaping or construction contracting

Comprehensive Plan Recommendations
This site is designated in the Comprehensive Plan as being located within Suburban Focus Area 9: Historic Seatack. This
area is thought to be the oldest African-American settlement in Virginia. Seatack is an integral part of the Resort Area,
and while primarily a residential community with supporting religious institutions and public facilities, it also includes
some businesses and light industry. Much of the SFA is constrained by the Special Flood Hazard Area,AICUZ restrictions,
and Navy restrictive easements. Recommendations for this area include having all new development adhere to Article
18 of the Zoning Ordinance concerning AICUZ restrictions, be compatible with existing residential areas, have significant
landscape screening buffers between existing residential areas and new non-residential development, and design
stormwater systems to not negatively impact adjacent parcels.
In addition, the site is also located within Special Economic Growth Area 1 (SEGA-1)—East Oceana. The plan calls for
development that is sensitive to the neighborhood context while realizing compatible economic development in the
area. Recommendations include light industrial uses with significant buffers to shield the surrounding neighborhoods
from intrusive impacts.
Natural and Cultural Resources Impacts

Area, the most stringently regulated portion of the Chesapeake Bay Preservation Area (CBPA). No additional land
disturbance is proposed in this area, and as such, no CBPA board action is required with this request. There are no
known significant cultural resources associated with this site.

Conditional Use Permit (Bulk Storage Yard)
Conditional Rezoning(R-10 Residential to Conditional I-1 Light Industrial)
311 S. Birdneck Road
District—Beach
December 12th 2018
CONSENT
Ms. Oliver: Thank you commissioner Redmond. The next matter is agenda item number six
and this is an application for Conditional Rezoning R-10 Residential to
Conditional I-1 Light Industrial and R-10 residential and a Conditional Use
Permit Bulk Storage Yard on property located at 311 South Birdneck Road. Is
there a representative for this application?
Mr. Bourdon: Thank you madam Vice Chair, for the record Eddie Bourdon, Virginia Beach
attorney representing Mr. Azevedo, all the 15 conditions are acceptable. We do
not object, although I understand Mr. Ripley's concern about the public, this is a
landscaping company, there should be no public members going to the property
so we are, I don't disagree with the thought but we have no problem with that
condition, we also have no problem with a condition that would be
administratively reviewed after five years. I think I heard commissioner former
Chairman Hodgson recommend, we are fine with that, appreciate all the work that
1
staff has done. Mr. McNamara particularly and this has been a process, I could
give you all the history of this property but you don't want to hear that today, you
have got enough to listen to so appreciate being on the Consent Agenda.
Ms. Oliver: Thank you. [Irrelevant Conversation]
Mr. Hodgson: I am going to read it.
Ms. Oliver: Okay, thank you.
Mr. Hodgson: Thank you Ms. Oliver. The applicant has operated a Bulk Storage Yard in the
rear of the property without the benefit of a Conditional Use Permit. Construction
and landscape materials, as well as supplies and equipment are stored on the
industrially-zoned, western portion of the property. The stem of the flag lot,
which provides vehicular access to the site from Birdneck Road, is currently
zoned R-10 Residential. The paved access runs immediately adjacent to a single-
family dwelling. Trucks going to and from the storage yard must use this access
way, as there is no other alternative route to the industrially-zoned portion of the
site. Due to the established Virginia case law, the vehicular access to a property
must have like zoning to the larger site. As such, the applicant has submitted a
request to rezone the 15-foot wide access way from R-10 Residential to
Conditional I-1 Light Industrial, leaving the remainder of the R-10 portion of the
property residentially-zoned. The access also provides ingress and egress from
Birdneck Road to the adjacent property. As there is an existing single-family
dwelling, constructed in 2006, on the adjacent lot, the applicant proposes to
provide a substantial buffer beyond minimal requirements between a light
2
industrial use and the existing single-family dwelling. This site poses a challenge
to blend the uses allowed under Article 18 of the City's Zoning Ordinance, with
uses that are compatible with the existing residential dwellings in the vicinity. In
Staffs opinion, low-impact, low-intensity uses such as the proposed Bulk Storage
Yard are appropriate adjacent to residential uses, provided sufficient protections
are in place. Factors such as appropriate screening and potential noise generation
must be examined to ensure compatibility with the surrounding uses and to
protect the adjacent properties from potential intrusive impacts. I did ask that
with Mr. Bourdon did mention that we just put a 5-year review on this
Conditional Use Permit which could be done administratively which I appreciate
you doing that and the Staff is in support of this application and commission
agrees and we have placed it on our Consent Agenda.
Ms. Oliver: Thank you. Mr. Chairman I would like to move to approve consent agenda items
number one, four, six, seven, D2 and D4 to be approved.
Mr. Thornton: Thank you, I have a motion to approve the items on the consent agenda, do I have
a second, Mr. Ripley?
Mr. Horsley: I will second.
Mr. Thornton: Second by Mr. Horsley.
Mr. Ripley: I have a couple of disclosures on that abstention if you don't mind Mr. Chairman.
First disclosure and these would disclose because I will be voting on these matters
okay, the first one is item number seven, I own the property across the street and I
just want to disclose that, although, I have no interest in this property or any
3
financial ventures, I do want that to be known. Also item number D4, the
applicant has issued his listed TowneBank as the lender, I am disclosing that I am
a member of the TowneBank Advisory Board in Chesapeake and I have a letter
on file with the clerk that stating and TowneBank is not the applicant and I have
no interest and it has no interest that I know having this, at least I don't and since
the planning commission has recommendation and advisory council, does not
make the final decision, I disclose I will be voting on this matter as well and I do
want to abstain on item D2 which is the ordinance with the B-4K, I have own
property in this District, it effects the property I owned, I don't necessarily agree
with the ordinance, but I am abstaining on voting.
Mr. Thornton: And I need to not vote on, no, no I am sorry I need to disclose in item seven, the
company that I work for is handling the brokerage of that, I have no financial
interest in it and I will be voting on it, but I did want to disclose that. Can we
have a motion and a second, any other conflicts we need to disclose?
Ms. Sandloop:Vote is open. By vote of 10-0, items one, four, six, seven, D2, and D4 have been
approved by consent with Commissioner Ripley abstaining from item D2.

AGENDA ITEM J
ITEM: DAVID PAUL AURILLO [Applicant & Property Owner] Conditional Use
Permit (Home Occupation) at the property located at 5720 Attica Avenue
(GPIN 1468061728), COUNCIL DISTRICT — BAYSIDE.
MEETING DATE: January 15, 2019
• Background:
The applicant is requesting a Conditional Use Permit for a Home Occupation for
Craft Sales in order to produce wooden signs within an existing detached garage
located in the Diamond Lakes neighborhood.
Section 501(b)(5)(iv) of the Zoning Ordinance states that in residential districts,
certain accessory activities are permitted by-right within a residence, provided
certain criteria are met. One such criterion is that all business activities must be
conducted within the principal dwelling unit. As the proposed use will be located
within an accessory structure, a Conditional Use Permit is required.
• Considerations:
The applicant will sell the signs off site, typically at craft markets and similar
venues. No retail sales are proposed from the home and/or the garage. Staff did
receive one letter of support and two letters of opposition. The opposition noted
concerns related to noise and traffic.
• Recommendations:
City Staff recommends approval of this request. The Planning Commission placed
this item on the Consent Agenda, passing a motion by a recorded vote of 10-0, to
recommend approval of this request.
1. In accordance with Section 234 (c) of the City Zoning Ordinance, there shall be
no more than one (1) sign identifying the Home Occupation. Said sign shall be
no more than one (1) square foot in area, shall not be internally illuminated,
and shall be mounted flat against the wall of the residence.
2. The Home Occupation shall be permitted only if the property is the bona fide
residence of the applicant.
3. There shall be no sales to the general public of products or merchandise from
the home.

4. No more than one person other than a member of the immediate family

Evaluation and Recommendation
In Staff's opinion,the applicant's request for a Conditional Use Permit to operate a Home Occupation for Craft Sales in a
detached garage is acceptable. No significant traffic will be generated with the request,as no retail sales from the
property are proposed. The proposed use will be small in scale and is not expected to adversely impact the surrounding
properties. As such,Staff recommends approval of this request with the following conditions.

complementary non-residential uses in such a way that working together the stability and sustainability of the Suburban
Area is ensured for now and the future.

CONSENT
Ms. Oliver: The next matter is agenda item number four and this is an application for a
Conditional Use Permit, a Home Occupation on property located at 5720 Attica
Avenue in the Bayside District. Is there a representative for this application? You
will state your name for the record please sir.
Mr. Aurillo: David Aurillo.
Ms. Oliver: And are the Conditions acceptable to you?
Mr. Aurillo: Yes.
Ms. Oliver: Okay, thank you very much. Is there any opposition to this matter being placed
on the consent agenda today? Hearing none, the Chairman has asked
Commissioner Redmond to this read into the record please.
Mr. Redmond: Thank you. Mr. Chairman the applicant is requesting a Conditional Use Permit
for a Home Occupation for Craft Sales for the purpose of producing wooden signs
within an existing detached garage. It's not to be a retail site, no customers will
come to the site to purchase products, as all of the signs that he sells will be sold
1
at craft markets and similar venues. The typical hours of operation in that shop
will be around 9 to 5 p.m., Monday through Friday. There are no employees
proposed for the operation and as a result and in Staffs opinion, the applicant's
application is appropriate. No significant traffic will be generated with the
request. Planning Commission concurred by a consent, thank you.
Ms. Oliver: Thank you. Mr. Chairman I would like to move to approve consent agenda items
number one, four, six, seven, D2 and D4 to be approved.
Mr. Thornton: Thank you, I have a motion to approve the items on the consent agenda, do I have
a second, Mr. Ripley?
Mr. Horsley: I will second.
Mr. Thornton: Second by Mr. Horsley.
Mr. Ripley: I have a couple of disclosures on that abstention if you don't mind Mr. Chairman.
First disclosure and these I would disclose because I will be voting on these
matters. Okay, the first one is item number seven. I own the property across the
street and I just want to disclose that, although, I have no interest in this property
or any financial ventures, I do want that to be known. Also item number D4, the
applicant has listed TowneBank as the lender. I am disclosing that I am a member
of the TowneBank Advisory Board in Chesapeake and I have a letter on file with
the Clerk stating that and TowneBank is not the applicant and I have no interest
and it has no interest that I know in having this. At least I don't and since the
Planning Commission is a recommendation and advisory council, does not make
the final decision, I disclose I will be voting on this matter as well. And I do want
to abstain on item D2 which is the ordinance with the B-4K. I own property in
2
this District. It effects the property I owned I don't necessarily agree with the
ordinance,but I am abstaining on voting.
Mr. Thornton: And I need to not vote on, no, no, I am sorry. I need to disclose in item seven, the
company that I work for is handling the brokerage of that, I have no financial
interest in it and I will be voting on it, but I did want to disclose that. Can we
have a motion and a second? Any other conflicts we need to disclose?
Ms. Sandloop:Vote is open. By vote of 10-0, items one, four, six, seven, D2, and D4 have been
approved by consent with Commissioner Ripley abstaining from item D2.

Conditional Use Permit (Automobile Service Station) on the properties
located at 1910 & 1924 Kempsville Road, 1909 Centerville Turnpike (GPINs
1455816402, 1455817626, 1455817527), COUNCIL DISTRICT —
CENTERVILLE.
MEETING DATE: January 15, 2019
• Background:
The subject 2.06-acre site is located in the Centerville Strategic Growth Area at
the corner of Kempsville Road and Centerville Turnpike and is zoned B-2
Community Business District. The property is comprised of three parcels that are
developed with commercial uses. The applicant desires to consolidate the parcels
in order to redevelop the site with a 6,004 square foot convenience store and 20
fueling stations. Fuel sales require a Conditional Use Permit for an Automobile
Service Station.
Vehicular access to the site is proposed via Kempsville Road and Centerville
Turnpike, including a reduction in the number of ingress/egress points from four
down to two. The proposed convenience store will have contemporary
architecture, typical of a Wawa convenience store with fuel sales. The proposed
exterior building materials include a stone water table, brick veneer façade, and
fieldstone accents. The fuel canopy and dumpster enclosure will match the
architectural style and color scheme of the proposed convenience store building.
An eight-foot tall monument-style freestanding sign is proposed at the entrance
along Kempsville Road. The 52 parking spaces proposed on the site exceed the
47 parking spaces required by the Zoning Ordinance.
• Considerations:
The proposed site layout is logical and improves both vehicular and pedestrian
safety by reducing the number of potential conflict points along the rights-of-way.
Furthermore, the layout and the building's architecture will be consistent with the
Comprehensive Plan's goals of providing high quality building design with
appropriate screening.

Conditional Use Permit(Automobile Service Station)
1910 Kempsville Road, 1924 Kempsville Road, & 1909 Centerville Turnpike
District—Centerville
December 12th, 2018
CONSENT
Ms. Oliver: Thank you Commissioner Hodgson. The next matter is agenda item number
seven and this is an application for a conditional use permit, an automobile
service station, on properties located at 1910 Kempsville Road, 1924 Kempsville
Road, and 1909 Centerville Turnpike in the Centerville District. Hello.
Mr. Beaman: Hi good afternoon, for the record Rob Beaman, Virginia Beach attorney, here
today on behalf of the applicant. We have had the chance to read the conditions,
they are acceptable and we appreciate being on the consent agenda.
Ms. Oliver: Thank you so much, is there any opposition for this item we placed on the consent
agenda? Hearing none, the Chairman has asked Commissioner Rucinski to read
this into the record please.
Ms. Rucinski: T hank you Commissioner Oliver. The over 91,000 square-foot site is
located in the Centerville Strategic Growth Area at the corner of Kempsville Road
and Centerville Turnpike, and is zoned B-2 Community Business District. The
1
property is comprised of three parcels that are developed with a gas station,
veterinary establishment, and a used car dealership. It is the applicant's desire to
consolidate the three parcels into one property in order to develop the site. The
proposed development would be a 6,000 square-foot convenience store with 20
fueling stations. The fuel sales require a Conditional Use Permit for an
Automobile Service Station. Vehicular access to the site will be both via
Kempsville and Centerville Turnpike. There will be an 8-foot monument sign
that will be at the entrance of Kempsville Road and there will be 52 proposed
parking spaces which is over the minimum required of 47 by zoning. The
proposed request to develop the site with a convenience store and 20 fueling
stations is acceptable and its staff's opinion that the proposed site layout depicts a
logical layout with improvements to vehicular and pedestrian mobility and
reducing the number of potential conflict between points of vehicular access.
Furthermore, the layout and the building are consistent with the Comprehensive
Plan's goal of ensuring that all street-facing facades are of high quality. Design
elements include lighting and signage, and they are consistent with the typical
automobile service stations, and they do have the appropriate screening. Given
the proposed safety improvements and the aesthetic pleasing design, Staff
recommends approval; therefore, we have put it on the consent agenda because
the conditions are acceptable with the applicant.
Ms. Oliver: Thank you. Mr. Chairman that was the last item on the consent agenda and I
would like to move to approve consent agenda items number one, four, six, seven,
D2 and D4 to be approved.
2
Mr. Thornton: Thank you, I have a motion to approve the items on the consent agenda, do I have
a second, Mr. Ripley?
Mr. Horsley: I will second.
Mr. Thornton: Second by Mr. Horsley.
Mr. Ripley: I have a couple of disclosures on that abstention if you don't mind Mr. Chairman.
First disclosure and these are disclosed because I will be voting on these matters.
Okay, the first one is item number seven. I own the property across the street and
I just want to disclose that, although, I have no interest in this property or any
financial ventures, I do want that to be known. Also item number D4, the
applicant has listed TowneBank as the lender, I am disclosing that I am a member
of the TowneBank Advisory Board in Chesapeake and I have a letter on file with
the clerk stating that TowneBank is not the applicant and I have no interest and it
has no interest that I know of and since the planning commission has
recommendations and advises council, and does not make the final decision, I
disclose I will be voting on this matter as well and I do want to abstain on item D2
which is the ordinance with the B-4K. I own property in this District, it effects
the property I own, I don't necessarily agree with the ordinance, but I am
abstaining on voting.
Mr. Thornton: And I need to not vote on, no, no I am sorry I need to disclose in item seven, the
company that I work for is handling the brokerage of that, I have no financial
interest in it and I will be voting on it, but I did want to disclose that. Can we
have a motion and a second, any other conflicts we need to disclose?
3
Ms. Sandloop:Vote is open. By vote of 10-0, items one, four, six, seven, D2, and D4 have been
approved by consent with Commissioner Ripley abstaining from item D2.

AGENDA ITEM J
ITEM: AN ORDINANCE TO AMEND SECTION 901 OF THE CITY ZONING
ORDINANCE PERTAINING TO USE REGULATIONS IN THE B-4K BUSINESS
DISTRICT.
MEETING DATE: January 15, 2019
■ Background:
The Historic Kempsville Overlay and Zoning District (B-4K) was adopted by City
Council on January 24, 2006. The intent of its adoption was to encourage uses in
the Historic Kempsville area that would enhance the appearance of the area and
help restore its vitality as an important and historic location in the City. Since its
adoption, the City has purchased a number of properties in the overlay with the
intent to consolidate and redevelop. As development opportunities have been
considered with the Economic Development Department, several uses that are
currently prohibited in the B-4K District have proven to significantly limit
development potential. This Ordinance, sponsored by Councilwoman Jessica
Abbott and drafted by the Historic Kempsville Citizen Advisory Committee, with the
assistance of staff, modifies the uses permitted in the district and makes the district
more consistent with the other commercial districts in the Zoning Ordinance. The
specific modifications are listed below:
• Uses that will be permitted by-right in the B-4K District:
o Business and vocational schools less than 7,500 square feet;
o Eating and drinking establishments without drive-through windows;
o Greenhouses and nurseries;
o Indoor recreational facilities less than 7,500 square feet;
o Wine tasting rooms;
o Grocery stores less than 45,000 square feet; and
o Retail establishments less than 20,000 square feet.
• Uses that will be permitted as conditional uses in the B-4K District:
o Business and vocational schools greater than 7,500 square feet;
o Colleges and universities;
o Craft breweries, wineries and distilleries;
o Fiber-optic transmission facilities;
o Radio and television broadcasting;
o Indoor recreational facilities greater than 7,500 square feet;
o Outdoor recreational facilities;
o Open air markets;
City of Virginia Beach

o Grocery stores greater than 45,000 square feet; and
o Retail establishments greater than 20,000 square feet.
• Considerations:
This ordinance will provide for greater development potential within the B-4K
Business District. The ordinance was drafted by the Citizen Advisory Committee
for the area with the input of a large number of residents in the Kempsville area.
Following a year of consideration and discussions, this ordinance reflects the
desires of the community to encourage development while protecting the character
of the Historic Kempsville Area. Further information regarding this ordinance may
be found in the attached staff report.
• Recommendations:
City Staff recommends approval of this request. The Planning Commission placed
this item on the Consent Agenda, passing a motion by a recorded vote of 10-0, to
recommend approval of this request.

Since the adoption of the Historic Kempsville District,the City has purchased a number of properties within its boundary.
The intention is to consolidate lots and provide attractive development opportunities.As development opportunities
have been considered with the Economic Development Department,several uses have been identified that are currently
prohibited in the B-4K District that may be limiting development potential. Included in these uses are retail

Item #D2
City of Virginia Beach
An Ordinance to amend sections 901 of the City Zoning Ordinance pertaining to use
regulations in the B-4K Business District
December 12th, 2018
CONSENT
Ms. Oliver: Thank you, the next matter is agenda item number D2, and this is an application
for an Ordinance to amend sections 901 of the City Zoning Ordinance pertaining
to use regulations in the B-4K Business District and our Zoning Administrator,
Mr. Kemp is going to read this and tell us about it.
Mr. Kemp: Thank you commissioner and for the benefit of my boss, my name is Kevin
Kemp, I am the Zoning Administrator here at the City of Virginia Beach. This
proposed amendment is to the B-4K historic Kempsville area. In 2006, this was
established. The uses in the B-4K were limited, really to keep the historic feel
and support smaller pedestrian oriented development. As this ordinance has
matured, city has worked really hard to consolidate parcels. Looking back at
what is permitted and what's not, it seemed to be overly restrictive. What this
ordinance does is opens up a more permitted uses to make development potential
greater in that Kempsville area, while still maintaining the historic feel. I would
like tocommend commissioner Weiner Councilwoman Abbott and the historic
Kempsville CAC. This is a model of how ordinance amendment should come
1
forward. The past year, we have worked this out. We have had numerous public
meetings. The first one had over a 100 people, and I am happy to say the last
meeting was probably the most civil and productive public meeting I have ever
attended. So it really has been a community effort. it has buy end across the
board and the staff is happy to recommend approval of this ordinance.
Ms. Oliver: Thank you.
Mr. Kemp: Thank you.
Ms. Oliver: Thank you. Mr. Chairman I would like to move to approve consent agenda items
number one, four, six, seven, D2 and D4 to be approved.
Mr. Thornton: Thank you, I have a motion to approve the items on the consent agenda, do I have
a second, Mr. Ripley?
Mr. Horsley: I will second.
Mr. Thornton: Second by Mr. Horsley.
Mr. Ripley: I have a couple of disclosures on that abstention if you don't mind Mr. Chairman.
First disclosure and these would disclose because I will be voting on these matters
okay, the first one is item number seven, I own the property across the street and I
just want to disclose that, although, I have no interest in this property or any
financial ventures, I do want that to be known. Also item number D4, the
applicant has issued his listed TowneBank as the lender, I am disclosing that I am
a member of the TowneBank Advisory Board in Chesapeake and I have a letter
on file with the clerk that stating and TowneBank is not the applicant and I have
2
no interest and it has no interest that I know having this, at least I don't and since
the planning commission has recommendation and advisory council, does not
make the final decision, I disclose I will be voting on this matter as well and I do
want to abstain on item D2 which is the ordinance with the B-4K, I have own
property in this District, it effects the property I owned, I don't necessarily agree
with the ordinance, but I am abstaining on voting.
Mr. Thornton: And I need to not vote on, no, no I am sorry I need to disclose in item seven, the
company that I work for is handling the brokerage of that, I have no financial
interest in it and I will be voting on it, but I did want to disclose that. Can we
have a motion and a second, any other conflicts we need to disclose?
Ms. Sandloop:Vote is open. By vote of 10-0, items one, four, six, seven, D2, and D4 have been
approved by consent with Commissioner Ripley abstaining from item D2.

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 THE DEFINITION, REQUIREMENTS AND USE OF HOME
SHARING AND SHORT TERM RENTALS.
MEETING DATE: January 15, 2019
• Background:
Following several City Council workshops, on September 18, 2018, City Council
referred an Ordinance for the definition and regulation of short term rentals to the
Planning Commission for consideration. At the November 14, 2018 Planning
Commission meeting, the Planning Commission voted unanimously to defer the
item until their December meeting. Prior to the December meeting, the Planning
Commission held a workshop. The November 29,2018 workshop was attended by
ten Planning Commissioners, as well as approximately ten citizens.
Factoring in the discussions of the workshop and public input at the December 12,
2018 meeting, the Planning Commission has drafted an Ordinance for City Council
consideration. The regulations included in the Planning Commission version are
listed below; the underlined items were amended from the version sent to Planning
Commission from City Council.
• Home sharing is a permitted use. The home must be the operator's principal
residence and the operator must be present during any rental period.
• Conditional use permits are required and home must meet the requirements of
Section 241.2 of the Zoning Ordinance. Requirements effective as of the date
of adoption of the Ordinance.
• Parking requirement is one off-street space per bedroom. Stacking is permitted.
No on-street parking shall count towards requirement. If minimum requirement
cannot be met, a parking plan may be submitted to the Zoning Administrator.
• Special event permit required for any event with more than 50 people. No more
than 100 people permitted at any one event. Events are limited to no more than
three events per calendar year.
• The name and telephone number must be provided of a responsible party. The
responsible party has to be available to address any issue within 30 minutes;
however, is not required to physically go to the STR.

• Signs are limited to not more than one sign, no larger than four square feet in
area. Architectural signs naming the home are exempt.
• Registration must be kept and all applicable taxes must be paid.
• Summary of City Code regulations for noise, trash, fireworks, fires on the beach
and the parking plan must be posted in each home.
• Trash must be kept in automated refuse receptacles.
• No more than two rental contracts within seven consecutive days.
• $1,000,000 liability insurance coverage must be maintained.
• No outdoor amplified sound after 10 p.m. or before 10 a.m.
• Total occupancy between the hours of 11 p.m. and 7 a.m. shall be no more
than three persons per bedroom.
• Grandfatherinq date shall the date of adoption of this Ordinance.
• Interconnected smoke detectors and CO detectors (where applicable) shall be
required. Must meet the requirements of the current USBC for residential
structures.
• Accessory structures shall not be used for short term rentals.
• City Council may revoke a conditional use permit after notice (15 days) and
hearing.
• Conditional use permit shall be valid for five years. Renewal is administrative
and performed by the Planning Department. If no violations occur in that
timeframe, use permit shall be administratively renewed.
• Requirement to maintain a quest loq is removed from this Ordinance.
• Considerations:
The short term rental industry has changed significantly in the past several years,
particularly with the growth of on-line home rental platforms. To address this
growing industry, an Ordinance regulating short term rentals has been evaluated
by staff, the Beaches and Waterways Commission, the Ad Hoc Committee on
Short Term Rentals, the Planning Commission and the City Council for the past
three years. Numerous public meetings, workshops, and public hearings have
been held and well attended. The Planning Commission and City Council have
had ample opportunities to hear from the community.
An Ordinance regulating short term rentals is necessary, particularly because the
Zoning Ordinance is currently silent on the use. The ordinance that is adopted
needs to reasonably regulate short term rentals, while protect the quality of life of
the City's stable and established residential neighborhoods. Further information
regarding this Ordinance may be found in the attached staff report.
• Recommendations:
City Staff recommends approval of this request. The Planning Commission passed
a motion to recommend approval of this request by a vote of 11-0.

Request
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 the definition, requirements and use of home sharing and short term rentals.
Summary of Request
At the City Council hearing on September 18,2018,City Council referred this Ordinance to the Planning Commission to
be considered at the November Planning Commission meeting. Following numerous workshops,Council drafted this
Ordinance which defines, identifies requirements and identifies the use of home sharing and short term rentals. A
"Short Term Rental Overlay District," is also added to the Ordinance for future considerations.
Home sharing,defined "a dwelling in which a room or rooms are offered for rental for compensation for a period of less
than thirty(30) consecutive days by an owner who utilizes the dwelling as his principal residence and occupies the
dwelling during any such rental period," is a permitted use in all districts that permit dwelling units. The sole
requirement is that the property must be registered with the Commissioner of the Revenue.
Short term rental,defined as "a dwelling that does not meet the definition of home sharing in which a room or rooms,
or the entire dwelling are rented for less than thirty(30) consecutive days for compensation," is a conditional use in all
districts that allow for dwelling units,with the exception of Sandbridge Special Service District(SSD), in which it is a
permitted use.All short term rental properties,including those located in the Sandbridge SSD, must meet the
requirements of Section 241.2,summarized below.
1. Parking-a minimum of one space per bedroom is required. If unable to provide required parking on-site,a
parking plan shall be reviewed by the Zoning Administrator. Stacking of vehicles is permitted. No on-street
parking shall be part of the parking plan.
2. Special Events-a special event permit is required for a gathering of more than 50 people,with no event
exceeding 100 people. A property may have no more than three events in a calendar year.
3. Contact-owner or operator must provide the name and phone number of a responsible person who is available
to contact and address conditions occurring at the short term rental within 30 minutes. Physical response to the
site is not required.
4. Signage-each short term rental is permitted four square feet of signage.Architectural signs naming the home
are not included.
5. Registration-short term rentals must maintain registration with the Commissioner of Revenue and pay all
applicable taxes.
6. Code posting-summaries of the following codes must be posted in a conspicuous place: 23-71(noise),31-26,
31-27 and 31-28(solid waste collection), 12-5(fires on the beach, 12-43.2 (fireworks),and a copy of the parking
plan.
City of Virginia Beach
Agenda Item D3

7. Trash-all trash in automated refuse receptacles. Comply with City Code (31-26,31-27 and 31-28).
8. Contracts -short term rental shall have no more than one rental contract during a seven day period.
9. Insurance-owner or operator shall provide proof of liability insurance of at least one million dollars
($1,000,000).
10. Noise- no outdoor amplified sound between 10 p.m.and 10 a.m.
11. Occupancy- maximum number of persons on property between 11 p.m. and 7 a.m. is two individuals per
bedroom plus four additional persons.
12. Guest Log-owner or operator must maintain a guest log including name,address and telephone number of all
Overnight Lodgers. Must be made available to any City employee enforcing the Zoning Ordinance or other
applicable City Codes.
13. Grandfathering-any short term rental registered and paid the transient occupancy tax prior to July 1,2018 does
not need a conditional use permit. Properties are still required to meet conditions of Section 241.2.Any
improvement or expansion that expands overall footprint by 25%or 1,000 square feet,whichever is less,will
revoke grandfather status and must obtain a conditional use permit.
14. Safety-smoke detectors (which may be wireless),a fire extinguisher and,where natural gas or propane is
present,carbon monoxide detectors must be installed and kept in working order.
15. Accessory Structures- no accessory structures shall be used as short term rentals.
16. Penalty-violations of conditions of a use permit or grandfather status,City Council may revoke the use permit
or grandfather status, provide proper notice and procedures are followed.
17. Duration-All conditional use permits are valid for two years. Renewal of the use permit is done administratively
by the Planning Department. Planning shall notify City Council, in writing, prior to any administrative renewal.
On November 29, 2018, Planning Commission held a workshop to discuss the ordinance given to them by City Council to
consider.
Recommendation
Staff recommends approval of this Ordinance. Short Term Rentals have been a long-standing practice in Virginia Beach,
yet the Zoning Ordinance currently does not address the use. Given changes in the rental industry, particularly on-line
rental platforms, it is necessary for the short term rental use to be considered. This Ordinance will amend the Zoning
Ordinance to provide requirements for short term rentals,as well as identify where they are a permitted use and where
they are a conditional use. This Ordinance also creates a "Short Term Rental Overlay District"should any communities or
neighborhoods wish to make them a permitted use in the future. It is Staff's opinion that this Ordinance allows for the
short term rental use with reasonable regulations that will protect the quality of life of our City's stable residential areas.

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 the
definition, requirements and use of home sharing and short term rentals.
December 12th, 2018
APPROVED
Ms. Sandloop:Our last item of business today is agenda item D3 City of Virginia Beach which is
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 Ocean Front Resort
District Form-Based code and add sections 209.6 and 241.2 of the City Zoning
Ordinance pertaining to the definition requirements and use of home sharing and
short-term rentals.
Mr. Thornton: Thank you. I am not sure where we even begin.
Ms. Sandloop: Mr. Chairman we have 14 speakers.
Mr. Thornton: Oh that's where we begin. So we will instead of I guess starting with the
proponent for this, we would start with the those that are opposed or just I guess
come and speak. However, if you feel like speaking and then we will close the
public hearing and know that for those who have attended our workshops, we
have spent a considerable amount of time on this matter, we think we have come
1
to some reasonable conclusions among ourselves and maybe you all today can
change some of our thinking and some of our minds but we want to hear from
you. I would like to ask that if someone else has made your point and you just
want to get up and say it again for the sake of saying it, in light of time, we like
to ask you to be brief and if it's already been stated, be very quick with your
thoughts, because we have allowed ourselves until 6 o'clock tonight to deal with
this matte., I am just kidding, but feel free to come forward. she will call your
name. state your name for the record and we want to hear your thoughts, so with
that.
Ms. Sandloop: Okay first speaker is Jack Drescher and then Janie O'Dell Young.
Mr. Thornton: Welcome.
Mr. Drescher: Good afternoon, I am Jack Drescher. I represent the North Virginia Beach Civic
League and as I told you the last time, we worked together. I also chaired the ad-
hoc committee studying short-term rentals. On behalf of the civic league, we
support the proposed ordinance as is. We think that strikes the proper balance
between property right and advocacy and also those who want to preserve our
residential characters of our neighborhoods. That having been said, and being
aware somewhat of what has taken place in your workshop, I understand that
there are concerns over occupancy and also the number of rental contracts per
week. Recall if you will that the civic league and I personally as the chairman of
the committee support the one rental contract per 7-day period. We know that
there will be those who argue to the contract that one more contract per week will
2
not make a difference, we tend to disagree. We think that by having more than
one per seven day period, what will end up happening is the residential character
of the neighborhood will simply change. There are horror stories that we heard
from any number of people who spoke at our committee meetings and we've had
a number of instances at the north end where we saw people basically dealing
with revolving doors of tenants coming in and out of the adjacent properties. So
we are in favor of the one rental contract per week. The occupancy issue is a little
different. we think that two per bedroom plus four is sufficient. I understand from
the workshop, there was a consideration of three, we understand that. We do
believe that the registration of lodgers with phone numbers and addresses is
important, I am not that familiar right now with the way that Commissioner of
Revenue actually enforces the collection of taxes and I know that there was a
software program at one particular point in time that he was utilizing in order to
make those collections, but this registry will be sort of a failsafe to make sure that
he is catching everyone that may be running these properties. So our position is
very simple is this, we support the ordinance as drafted, we think it accomplishes
the desired objective.
Mr. Thornton: Thank you sir, any questions for Mr. Dresher, thank you.
Ms. Sandloop: Janie O'Dell Young and then Larry Horvath.
Ms. Young: Good afternoon, my name is Dell Young. I live up on the Bay and it's an area that
could be greatly impacted by what you decide, so I just want to talk to you bit
about that. I think he was eloquent in what he said, so I am not going to go over
3
what he do said but I just want to tell you that I thought at first short term rentals,
were gonna be big deal even though I live in a resort area and I knew that we
probably would be impacted. I thought it was chance to meet some people, some
neighbors can make some money and that kind of stuff. Then I started talking to
people that been impacted and I started looking and making my own observations;
I am sure you have done that too. I am sure, you have been around where there
have been some short-term rentals and you see what's happened. So I changed
my mind, I change my mind pretty dramatically. I know you spent a lot of time
and effort as you said considering all these concerns that people have and you
seem to have addressed them. I am not sure why you decided to change things,
couple of things that the city council had decided. I just want to talk about a 4-
bedroom home, most of the homes around me are at least 4-5 bedrooms we'll say
a 4-bedroom home. I have a house on each side, a house in the front and the back
so that's four immediate neighbors. I am not talking about as an anger, just four
immediate neighbors; I am into numbers. So you are saying four people, three
people per four bedrooms, three people per bedrooms that's twelve plus two
more. That's 14 people and you are going to allow that twice a week, That's 28
people a week that could potentially be living next to me immediate neighbors, 28
that's over a 100 a month. Now I want you to stop and think if you live an area
where you could have a 100 strangers and that's just during the night time. Who
knows how many people are going to be there during the day time. So I want you
to stop and think about 100 strangers coming in and around you, you and your
family those people that you know, that you love, that you want to be with, with
4
these folks coming and going, imagine too that if you wanted to try to sell your
home, what it would like with all these cars, all these people constantly coming
and going with what you suggested. This is our third home in a series of homes,
it's our lifetime home, it's a home that we expected be taken out feet first, you
know that all adage. We want to be there for the rest of our lives, we spent a lot
of time meeting our neighbors, becoming good neighbors, getting involved with
the Civic League, and these are lifetime friends that we have got. These are folks
that we love, that we care about, that's who we want next to us and I think that's
you people want next to you as well. You know what this idea of all this constant
stream of strangers coming and going. So what we just want to do, I want to also
make a point and that is I know some people will say that they cannot afford their
homes unless they do have short-term rentals, but my question is why I am
subsidizing them, why is that I should be paying for them to be able to get a home
that's more expensive than they can afford. My husband and I save for years to
get the home that we are in and we definitely are in a home that we can afford, so
I just want you to think about these things as you start to think about what's going
to happen with the short-term rental issue and thank you for your time.
Mr. Thornton: Thank you, any questions for Mrs. Young. Thank you.
Ms. Sandloop: Larry Horvath and then Molly Brown.
Mr. Horvath: My name is Larry Horvath; I am here on behalf of the overwhelming majority of
our civic league members and Bay Lakes Pines, we support the draft ordinances
as they have been drafted and we civic league members want you to know that we
5
support those draft ordinances. We are particularly in support of the conditional
use permit requirement. This is the only way to control the spread and
proliferation and control these things. We do not want these things in our
neighborhood and a conditional use permit I think is probably the best way to get
a handle. We are not particularly, we are frightened of the disruptions that
disorderly and inconsiderate renters could have but mostly as the previous speaker
said. We are mostly afraid of losing our sense of neighborhood and familiarity
and with that number of new people every week, they would really upset the
residential nature of our neighborhood. Webster defines residential as meaning to
permanently occupy, so rentals of less than 30 days is not permanent occupancy.
So a conditional use permit when its nonconforming usage is particularly
applicable in this case, so we are in. Hopefully you will not do anything to change
the city council ordinance that has that included and its proposal. We want you to
protect our neighborhoods and we are hoping that you won't do anything that will
facilitate the conversion of homes into businesses in residential neighborhoods,
thanks.
Mr. Thornton: Any questions for Mr. Horwath, thank you sir.
Ms. Sandloop: Molly Brown and then Mark Bissette.
Ms. Brown: Good afternoon chairman Thornton.
Mr. Thornton: Hello.
Ms. Brown: Thornton and members of the Virginia Beach planning commission. I am Molly
Brown and I support city council's recommendations for short-term rentals, after
6
three years, the city council as well as the staff that Mr. Thornton you just
elegantly praised as they should have been, have developed a fair compromise
and I ask you to support the recommendations on short-term rentals. They have
looked at all the codes, they have studied, they have heard from the public and I
think that the city staff and the city council I think the recommendation should be
considered. Also I ask each of you to support your own comprehensive plan and
protect all Virginia Beach residential zone neighborhoods, all residentially zone
neighborhoods in Virginia Beach need your help to protect the health, safety and
public welfare of all the residence and visitors alike, thank you very much, any
questions.
Mr. Thornton: Thank you, thank you.
Ms. Sandloop: Mark Bissette and then Todd Solomon.
Mr. Bissette: Good afternoon, my name is Mark Bissette and I am speaking in opposition of
couple of the issues with the new regulation. I owned a duplex in Ocean Park
since 1987 and over the last 12 years or so we have rented it that as a short-term
rental during the summer time and mostly through a realtor, Atkinson Realty but
also recently through VRBO as well. So we have not had any issues as far as
problems with neighbors or anything. we have had problems in the past with a
long-term rental, but not really any with the short-term rental, so not sure you
know if there is a difference there. We rent to one or two tenants a week and
that's pretty much it. It's never above two but it's one or two week and we are
okay as far as I am concerned I am okay with two people per bedroom plus the
7
four. I mean that's I really don't want any more than that in the house anyway to
be honest with you and then the other thing is the registry as far as turning in I
guess registration of names to the city, you know, not sure that I am in agreement
with that and to me that it's not really what we are submitting the taxes to the city.
I am not sure about the city needs to know who stay in the house. So basically
that's it, I've been using the property for 12 years, I have two sons in college and
you know this is sort of income has been helping maintain our lifestyle and
getting our boys through college so, just want to be able to use the property the
way we have for the last 12 years, appreciate your time.
Mr. Thornton: Any questions for Mr. Bissette, thank you.
Ms. Sandloop:Todd Solomon and then Martin Waranch.
Mr. Solomon: Good afternoon, my name is Todd Solomon, I am a resident of Cape Story by the
Sea, currently we have about 15 homes on our little street. It's a dead-end street
and we have two bed and breakfasts out of 15 homes, so we are already kind of
living with this. I am actually in support of short-term rentals. I don't have any
issue with people using them, it's the way they use them; it's the biggest issue that
we have in the neighborhood. my first concern in the item that you have on here is
parking, since our streets are little, they have no on-street parking at all. off street
parking is almost non-existent. Also, you've mentioned on here a minimum, you
have a minimum of one parking spot per bedroom. I would ask you to look at
making that maximum amounts with the ability to have one women that
mentioned 14 people in a home at one time. I guarantee there is going to be about
8
seven cars, everybody, if you are lucky, you get two in a car, maybe one in a car if
you are military. So if you got seven cars and you have a minimum on-site of
four, where the other three parking, you are going to do a plan and you are going
to do off-street parking, on our street the off-street parking is my front yard, so I
am going to have a neighbor parking their cars in my front yard in the right-of-
way for their bed and breakfast for their short-term rental, it's not going to fly. So
I would ask that you make those maximum and make them all on-site so if you
are going to have four, they all have to be on-site, if you think, there are going to
be seven cars, push it up to seven but put it all on-site. so make it a maximum
parking versus the minimum because the overflow is going onto our streets no
matter what. The second part of which you have that I am little confused about is
the grandfathering but the violations and penalties and how you pull a grandfather
when it happens even the grandfather once it appears going to happen every two
years on the renewal. If there are violations and then they won't get a renewal of
their conditional use permit, but say for a grandfathering, so these two homes,
these two that are being used as short-term rentals on my street are going to be
grandfathered. Right now, the one is working fine, they turn and over, they sell it
to somebody else, they come in and they are not very good owner of it, they have
keggers twice a week, since if you allow twice, we call it in. how does it get the
city council that whole path of who we call, how it gets the city council, city
council then pulls their grandfathering and they have to turn around and then
come before you with the conditional use permit and then hopefully you shoot it
down too. how long does that process take? who is in-charge of that? There is a
9
lot of questions with the ownership of it, how it works, the process who is in-
charge, who as we as residence and neighbors, who do we call, are we calling the
police for all these violations for parking and for noise and for egg throwing and
all the other issues. it seems you don't want to call the police, you have somebody
else, maybe it's zoning, maybe hire more zoning people, hopefully you've
thought about all of this and it's going to be in a process somewhere that we will
be able to read but before we can vote or before we say this is acceptable. We
would like to see that whole process and understand it rather than try it out and I
guess it determines how we make the changes afterwards.
Mr. Thornton: Any questions for Mr. Solomon, Ron.
Mr. Ripley: Mr. Solomon the idea of the parking the minimum, seems like that's the word you
want. I mean you want a minimum to have one parking space if you can have
more than one, that will be good.
Mr. Solomon: Well what I am saying is that the home on our street has four bedrooms, so you
would require them to have four spots minimum on-site after that if they only
have four, but knowing full well that they are going to rent the 14 people that
means seven cars are showing up Friday to rent the place where the other three. I
mean you would bless it off, you look at their site plan and say one, two, three and
four, good four bedrooms and four cars, minimum great, thank you very much, so
Friday seven cars show up, where did the other three go?
Mr. Ripley: Well, the one that's in your neighborhood is going to be grandfathered if they
meet these requirements, that's been.
10
Mr. Solomon: So they don't even have to do a parking plan right?
Mr. Ripley: Yeah, somebody new coming in is going to have to do a parking plan.
Mr. Solomon: Well that's even a worse scenario then, so then only you have a parking plans, so
they don't even have four, so we are calling daily because they are over parking
onto the streets and that falls into the, how do you revoke their grandfather
question, but you see what I am saying, I mean you are going to bless off
minimum four, four, four, you know they can show it all on a plan but then the
overflow goes where,where the other three go.
Mr. Ripley: Well, the grandfather it's what's out there right now, that's what the idea.
Mr. Solomon: It is, I am just saying, right now, I don't see a process for, I mean, and you say
city council could do.
Mr. Ripley: I would think you'd go through zoning, that's where you would call, they enforce
this.
Mr. Solomon: I hope you guys are putting this plan together or you are passing it on the staff or
somebody is putting this plan together. I mean got it, hopefully I can read it
somewhere, at some point on your website under planning for the plans for this
but right now it just says it's going to happen magically and every two years that
it happens which is kind of ridiculous. why I have to keep calling and there is
violations and they mount up every week? That I got to wait for two years for the
conditional use permit to get renewed for them to go away, so and I am sure there
11
is a bunch of legal things that Kay is going to have to worry about if you doing it
within the two-year period, so I would like to say maximum I think is the word.
Mr. Thornton: Question from Mr. Weiner for you.
Mr. Weiner: When you say calling weekly who you are calling, you are calling for the parking
problems,people you are calling the city?
Mr. Solomon: No, I am just hypothesizing well there is one when it first started up, we called
weekly and we called the police, the non-emergency number.
Mr. Weiner: What did they do?
Mr. Solomon: For the parking violation,they turned around and told us to call towing.
Mr. Weiner: Okay.
Mr. Solomon: For the noise, they went up and knocked on the door. For the egg throwing that
was after the fact so that was just a report, I think that was filled at.
Mr. Weiner: Did so, when you called towing, did they come out and tow the cars, and did they
come out?
Mr. Solomon: I believe no, I don't think they ever showed up.
Mr. Weiner: When you called the non-emergency number and the police came out.
Ms. Solomon: Obviously,we had to get signs;parking signs put it, no parking signs.
Mr. Weiner: When you called the police, they come out and knock on the doors, how many
times is that happened?
12
Mr. Solomon: Let's see when it first started, twice.
Ms. Weiner: Okay.
Mr. Thornton: Jack Wall has a question for him.
Mr. Wall: You brought up good point, you know, you are talking about maximum thoug.
Yeah this refers to minimum parking spaces but you are mentioning maximum
number of cars that they can have, okay alright.
Mr. Solomon: I mean I would suggest that they are going to have the four bedroom that you
require him to have six on-site or seven, you make the decision at six or seven
what you think is going to be a good average that would cover all cases.
Hopefully they are not going to bring 14 cars in and everybody drive one, that
would be crazy, but.
Mr. Wall: Okay.
Mr. Thornton: Any other questions for Mr. Solomon, thank you sir.
Mr. Solomon: Thank you.
Mr. Thornton: Oh I am sorry, Kay.
Ms. Wilson: I just wanting to make sure you all understood that there is a provision in the
proposed ordinance that would require even grandfathered structures because they
are not nonconforming, they are grandfathered. As a grandfathered uses, they
would have to comply with all the parking, with all of the requirements, with all
13
of the conditions, okay so even the grandfathered ones would have to come into
compliance.
Mr. Thornton: So they don't get a hall pass?
Ms. Wilson: No sir.
Mr. Thornton: Okay, thank you.
Mr. Hodgson: Can I say something more?
Mr. Thornton: Sure.
Mr. Hodgson: Just make sure I am doing this right, the only thing the grandfather would be for
conditional use permit.
Ms. Wilson: Yes sir.
Mr. Hodgson: Okay.
Mr. Thornton: Good to know, okay.
Ms. Sandloop: Martin Waranch and then Lynn Hume.
Mr.Waranch: Good afternoon everybody, my name is Martin Waranch, I moved to the north
end in 1990 and soon thereafter I got involved with the north end zoning review
committee, so I'm more familiar with zoning problems than I am with planning
commission problems and I have been here many times for zoning, but I think it's
the first time I have ever shown up here for this. Although they are all familiar,
same faces different places. Before I start those comments, I would like to
14
comment on what Karen said a moment ago, you guys missed the boat a minute
ago on that zoning request of with the lots because the lots were undersized, they
are in a flood area and they are going to have septic tanks and water problems and
if you are going to allow that and it's going to come up again, you are absolutely
right. You are going to allow that. You should not allow that they have undersized
lots in addition, so much for the zoning end of that and the zoning end of it here is
that I am, I was totally oppose to changing zoning, as I, I am an old guy and as I
recall we got industrial and you got business and you got residential and I live in a
residential area which typically means people buy a house and live there, I live at
the north end, the world is as the world is and people have been renting down
there forever and that's fine, we have never had any real problems, what's
happened is that the digital world has come upon us and Airbnb has suddenly
made it extremely easy for people to starting to rent their spaces out a little bit, so
what they have done is they have complicated the problem and they've
complicated the problem for anyone who lives near any kind of an attraction, the
water, the river, a park, call it what you will, people can rent spaces and they will
do it. I am opposed to any commercialization of a residential area, you want to
rent a room for couple of days, we got motels and hotels all over Virginia Beach,
the entire resort area is dedicated to that, so despite and I will tell you this I was in
all the comments and all the discussion and so forth in north Virginia Beach Civic
League, Jack Drescher has done a duty, his comments were very brief here today
and I am sure you people are aware of how much effort and time he is put into
this thing and what has happened is we have got what we need in Washington
15
DC, it's been a compromised. The compromise is that the residents who live in a
residential areas have not gotten everything they want and the people who want to
rent everything in site have not gotten everything they want and council has come
up with something that will control it a little bit and work, my reason for being
here today is because I read online that you guys want to add two rental contracts
in a seven-day period, you are looking at a guy don't want any contracts on a
seven-day period, I think two weeks to a month is fine but I definitely don't want
two in any particular week anywhere because as gentleman before me said, we
don't need that kind of traffic, we don't want anything with people's property
rights but I am not in a business of making a business for people who are living
nearby and one lady said that she bought her home, people said they cannot afford
their homes, I remember the trauma of moving in to where we moved in and I
said at that time to my wife, my next move is going to be handled by olivers and
still in line, any questions.
Mr. Thornton: Thank you sir.
Ms. Sandloop: Lynn Hume and then Jim Moffat.
Ms. Hume: Hello, my name is Lynn Hume and I am back again, I have been a resident of
Shore Drive and the Great Neck area since 1980 and I have attended or watched
all of the planning council and workshops and hearings for the past two years and
I really get confused when I hear about all the discussions about problems and
preserving neighborhoods. Many of these neighborhoods along Shore Drive were
first seasonal short-term rentals and second homes, there weren't residential
16
homes first they were built without the visit city water and sewer, people were
bringing cinder blocks. The short-term rentals are part of the character of the
neighborhoods, it's use has been allowed for over 70 years and many of the
neighborhoods along Shore Drive still have duplexes and cinder block cottages,
they are all very colorful neighborhoods and in fact many of still zoned R5R and
R5D and in zoning it states that it's mixture of seasonal and long-term residents
and duplexes. So when they say that they want to keep the flavor of the
neighborhood or keep it residential, these neighborhoods were always seasonal,
always rentals, mixed in with owners and the owners love it. The neighbors, one
of the rentals I have in Cape Story and the neighbors told me that they love the
guests, they lend them their paddleboards, brand new neighbors who bought a
650,000 dollar house next door said oh my god, where do you get your guests, we
love them, and we'd love to meet them. We have got people from Canada
recently, military families, people with young kids coming to see their
grandparents at West Minister, so most of the short-term rentals in the Shore
Drive area Ocean Park, Chesapeake Beach, they have always been two, three
rentals a week, the one per week doesn't work down there, people come into fish,
to boat, to come to the new Brock Center, ride their bikes over the new bridge, the
state park, the light houses, it's been developed as a resort area. The wave bus
goes and picks up people in the resort area and takes them to the beach. One
rental per seven days is a hardship for these neighborhoods. There is no real
difference between two rentals in seven days or one rental, there are still people,
and there are still cars. You can always have a terrible owner, home owner next
17
to you or a long-term tenant that never leaves and I watched the council meetings
where they talked about where registers being added for all the guests, there is not
a lot of discussion at the council meeting when this was added, it was kind of
tossed in, Councilman Wood ask about the legality, it's not legal for hotels, we
know it's not legal in some of homes or a long-term rental, so just to have the city
say hey, I want to have a register who has been in your house that we cannot go
down that path, so I don't think that's a good idea to say that all the kids,
everybody needs to be registered and have the people forfeit their right to privacy
upon renting a unit. So once again, thank you for your time and helping to solve
this controversy, I know it's a hard situation but not all areas are the same, thank
you.
Mr. Thornton: Thank you, any questions for Ms. Hume,thank you ma'am.
Ms. Hume: Thank you.
Ms. Sandloop: Jim Moffat and then Elaine Fekete.
Mr. Moffat: Thank you today for giving me the opportunity to speak. You have made many
commonsense decisions on a number of these ordinances, but there are two that
are very important to the success of short-term rentals in Virginia Beach and Sand
Bridge, we are asking that you change the city council recommendation from one
reservation week to two per week, the reason was very simple. Virginia Beach
tourism just announced the average stay in Virginia Beach is 2.8 nights hence the
two reservations per week, why would we only allow one reservation for a short-
term rental knowing that the history of Virginia Beach is 2.8. I have sent
18
numerous breakdowns of the money which would be last to owners in the city and
the state if you do not go with the three per bedroom plus two, I also listen to the
stuff that was brought up this morning and I agree with a compromise of the three
per bedroom and not add the plus two to make it difficult for people to understand
as David brought up. I realized you were talking about the three per bedroom and
drop the plus two, we also realized I think at this point that the smaller homes are
not effective one way or the other, it's still comes back to the larger homes, they
can financially cripple the owners with these larger homes, I had a whole thing of
money to put down and the loss it's not worth going over that with the
commission, it's already been issued to you numerous times in letter form on
what taxes and sales tax and different things that could be lost by taking it to two
bedroom plus four it does make a big difference. The owners built these houses
because of demand for larger families coming to Virginia Beach and to follow
every regulation that the city has set forth. We know we can fight this battle with
city council, so we are not making a very larger deal at this point in time, we
know there were some discussion on the size of signs, I am not sure why, I sent
pictures to all of you to know how small a two foot by two foot sign looks on a
house, it should be noted that Airbnb houses do not use the signs because they are
not allowed to show them on the Airbnb site. If they do have a sign, we have a
rental sign which is on Airbnb, it gets cleared off you cannot see that sign. The
sign helps guests find the right house and also helps emergency personnel know
which real estate company to contact when there are issues. Signs are not a
problem throughout the rest of the city and number four should stay as four square
19
feet, architectural signs have never been an issue, size is based on the size of the
house and what looks good, not getting the name and address and phone number
and dropping number 12, the guest log just make sense, we have the names
responsible on the rental contract and they are held accountable for their guests.
The ordinance was asking for something almost impossible to achieve. Our goal
is to have all Virginia Beach under the same set of rules; Sand Bridge is not want
to go after an overlay even though we will if necessary. I believe we have made
many concessions to get where we are and I want to change as a planning
commission made that you have as planning commission to go back to city
council. We didn't ask the home owners to come today because we realized that
everything going back, the city council's recommendation and we also know how
that turned out last time, thank you so much.
Mr. Thornton: Any questions for Mr. Moffat, thank you.
Ms. Sandloop: Elaine Fekete and then Mike Megge.
Ms. Fekete: Good afternoon, before I go on my rant, Merry Christmas to everyone and happy
new year and I do want to thank each and every one of you because I do realize
how much work that you have been into this and I know you dream about it and
have nightmares about it as do I, so I didn't even prepare remarks because it's just
automatically in my conversation every day. I attended every single city council
workshop this summer and there were two points that I wanted to bring up that I
don't think really were conveyed one of them is a very simple thing the effective
date, you all were asking about why the effective date was moved back instead of
20
it being effective the day that you or, council passes the resolution and the answer
to that was we don't rent for tomorrow night, we are renting six months and
twelve months out so that was to give us time to finish if it passes in city council
in March that gives us time till November to finish up the rentals that we have
because no one wants to call their renters and say when you stop at the rest stop,
you need to leave four of the kids out of the car is, now the guideline is you know
12 not 16 so that was to help particularly the people of Sand Bridge who are
renting a year in advance, people that are coming for vacations, not people that
are coming for keggers in the other areas of the city. The other thing I wanted to
bring up is I think it's painfully obvious to everybody at this point that Sand
Bridge is different, I am not saying Sand Bridge is special or more entitled, I am
just saying everyone keeps trying to turn the pieces of the jigsaw puzzle to make
it work for everyone and it's never going to happen. Sand Bridge contributes 28,
it could be 30 million dollar by now in tax revenue to this city and pays for its
own sand and it's traditionally always done for 60 some years, seasonal rentals.
We don't want to do two rentals a week in the summer; it's too annoying, and it's
a pain. So but we still want the option in the shoulder seasons and the holidays to
do two rentals per week. I rent my home myself, it is my residence so I rent it in
the summer and I rent it during the holidays, every Thanksgiving and Christmas I
have two rentals that week because I get military families and based on their
schedule, they're like we have to celebrate Thanksgiving at this weekend and the
other one needs to do the other weekend, it was seven people this year in my
house for the first four days of the week, it was seven people in my house the last
21
three days of the week, it's still seven strangers. It's part of our business model in
the off season to do that but I see the light blinking, I knew I should have done a
better job preparing this, my point is looking at the occupancy and the number of
rentals per week, reducing those numbers, constricting those numbers is going to
have a financial impact for the whole city because of the amount of revenue Sand
Bridge generates for the city and all I am asking is that when you refer this to city
council, you ask someone to do their due diligence and looking at the financial
repercussions.
Mr. Thornton: Question from Ms. Oliver.
Ms. Oliver: Let me go back to the shoulder seasons,usually it's a weekend.
Ms. Fekete: Right.
Ms. Oliver: So when you start your week, how do we start it?
Ms. Fekete: Exactly.
Ms. Oliver: So if we started on a Wednesday and they technically come on Wednesday to
Sunday and then the following week they come on Wednesday to Sunday, does
that, I guess my question is there a week day that we actually legitimately start on
or can we start on any day?
Ms. Fekete: In the shoulder season, no because it could be someone coming from Thursday to
Monday but what I am referring to are like the week of Thanksgiving so
somebody came Saturday, Sunday, Monday, Tuesday and left Wednesday
22
morning and somebody came Wednesday, Thursday, Friday and left Saturday
morning, so that was a seven day period.
Ms. Oliver: It's still within one week.
Ms. Fekete: In one week and we,
Ms. Oliver: That's still one rental in one week, I am just saying if you count your week a
different versus from Saturday to Sunday, you do it Wednesday to Wednesday,
did I do that wrong.
Ms. Wilson: Yes ma'am.
Mr. Thornton: In seven days, it's two rentals.
Ms. Wilson: Yeah that's two rentals and it's in seven a consecutive days is what the ordinance
says, it doesn't talk about week, it doesn't talk about days any seven consecutive
days.
Ms. Fekete: We are not doing it, I realized it's a separate issue in other neighborhoods and
they want to protect the integrity but anyone who does that in Sand Bridge is only
doing it in the shoulder seasons and the holidays, no one wants two rentals per
week during the summer, I mean that's just not good business, so that answer
your question?
Mr. Thornton: Any other questions, thank you ma'am.
Ms. Fekete: Thank you.
Ms. Sandloop:Mike Megge and then Mr. Holden.
23
Mr. Megge: Good afternoon, I am Mike Megge and I live in the Shore Drive area of Virginia
Beach, I want to thank all of you for the hard work you have done on this topic, I
think this is the third go round, but anyways I will keep this short and concise like
I hope the STR regulations turned out to be, I think we all agree that STRs should
be registered with the city, they should pay their proper taxes and they should
conform all the city regulations and ordinances when it comes to trash, noise,
parking, outside fire signs, we have ordinances and I think many of the
hypothetical complaints are exaggerated, I mean we all know that there is
problems. There are problems with short-term rentals, there are problems with
permanent neighbors but I do believe that a lot of the hypothetical concerns with
the 28 people living coming every two days all the way around you, I think those
are little bit exaggerated, it's a market driven and there is not every house is not
going to be a short-term rental, it's just not going to happen. So I agree with the
lot of the ordinances that you are putting forth, I don't agree with and I think it's
going to be very difficult to regulate the number of people that come into a room,
I mean the city said it everyone has said it 100 times, the city is not going to go
counting heads and beds in all these rentals, so I think that's one of those feel
good regulations, it's going to be very difficult to enforce and the big item is the
idea of having to keep a register where everyone signs in and you are going to
have, you know, children and cousins and everyone signing into a register and
then for the city to say, we want to see that register and it just says at the request
of the city whenever they want to see it, I just think that's kind of an invasion
privacy and it's going to be very tough to keep and I don't even know if it's legal
24
but at the end of the day, this is a residential issue, it's just, we are just talking
about the number of days, it's legal to rent your house, it's always been legal to
rent your house, the city is being allowed short-term rentals for 70 plus years,
right now we are just talking about the number of days we are renting, it's still a
rental, it's still a residential rental, we are just talking about the number of days
and with that I hope you guys all have a great holiday, have Merry Christmas,
thank you for your time and again thanks.
Mr. Thornton: Questions for Mr. Maggie, thank you so much, sir.
Mr. Megge: Thank you.
Ms. Sandloop: Mr. Holden and then Ms. Rose.
Mr. Holden: Hello, my name is Tom Holden, my wife and I Denise own a cottage at 24th in
Baltic and there is always an outlier and I think we are one of them. I think the
work that you are doing is important and I support it. We do have a rental and it's
been very profitable for us and successful both in terms of the quality of people
we get and the care they give our property. However, our property has no parking
and never has, it didn't have it when we were married in this house, it didn't have
it when we started our family and the reason is because when the property next
door was developed, the zoning allowed it to go right up to our property line
essentially to the kitchen steps, so we have always used the street, we get our
parking permits from the city, do other things you have asked us to do, so my
question is what do we do, are we going to now not be able to participate in this
and just go back through year long rentals which have not always been the best,
25
the best financial outcome for everybody. There must be some way for a small
tiny operation like ours, it's one house like cottage with two bedrooms that we
could find a way to allow us to continue to take advantage of the great
opportunities in the city but also meet the needs of this commission so I am here
to say that most importantly, I also have couple of final things I am not really sure
about this registry, I always happy to comply with the court order, if the court
says we need to turnover information of an individual, we are happy to do that but
I don't know that city of employees looking for the names of people, things are
little onerous,two times a week would be nice frankly yeah I mean the people that
we be get in our house are couples,retired and they have their dog and it's kind of
the niche mark that we picked up on, a lot of people like to travel with their pets
and hotels don't typically like that, so we allow a small dog 40 pounds or less to
sit in the house with, I mean they are thrilled. Those are the people we get a lot of
time, in fact most of the time. So I will leave it that, this parking matter is really a
problem for us, happy to comply with any regulations but the parking is an issue.
Mr. Thornton: So Jan.
Ms. Rucinski: So where do your guest park now?
Mr. Holden: On the street.
Ms. Rucinski: On the street.
Mr. Holden: It's a little pink house at Baltic and 24th. If you drive down Baltic Avenue, you
cannot miss this house, and it's a little house with flowers, it's real cute.
26
Mr. Thornton: Question from Dee.
Ms. Oliver: Mr. Kemp what does happen with an instance whether he is renting it or not
renting it that he has no driveway because it was.
Mr. Kemp: Right, well this situation the parking would be non-conforming, I am sure it was
built prior to you know us having a zoning ordinance.
Ms. Wilson: 241.2 the conditions that are listed speaks to your issue, says if you don't have off
street parking, you can submit a parking plan to Mr. Kemp and Mr. Kemp can
make sure you have some provision for parking and then approve a plan for you.
Mr. Holden: Okay, so that might be what we are doing now but it's just sort of official.
Mr. Kemp: Right that plan or that language was put in the ordinance pretty much centered
around your area and up in Chesapeake Beach area where there are these older
cottages, that don't have the parking. It is a way to accommodate not having that
parking, so not having parking wouldn't preclude you from taking part in rentals,
you would just have to tell the zoning office how are you parking it, you know,
what are your accommodations and we would review that.
Mr. Holden: Right, thanks.
Mr. Thornton: Any other questions for Mr. Holden, thank you sir.
Mr. Holden: Thank you very much.
Ms. Sandloop: Joan Rose and then Catherine Miller.
27
Ms. Rose: I wasn't going to read my presentation but I have decided because of some of the
things I have heard. It needs to be read. I am a part of an organization called
Protect Virginia Beach neighborhoods, we in Sand Bridge, we are residential, all
people don't know that but it's a residential neighborhood, we do have renters and
we like them but they are weekly family renters that we have always had. Since
these big homes in Airbnb and all the stuff everything has changed. It's made,
it's just almost unbearable. We do support the city council's recommendation and
the spirit of compromise. We have worked with the rental agencies, I have
testified myself for you, I have testified before city council, the water waste
collection, the whole thing and it's time to think for us to bring it to an end, there
are two issues I think are important. Two individuals per bedroom is what the
state rental association recommends and heard and they do that for one reason for
safety and compromise for the rental companies as I understand it, city council
allowed plus four, but that's it. We are tired of compromising our neighborhoods
have been compromised and the number of rentals allowed in a week, one, would
you like it if your renters or your next door neighbor rented their home twice a
week, at 52 weeks a year that would be 104 different groups coming in and out
beside your family. This is I am worried of. Whether or not, you have children,
you are retired, you built your dream home, this is not what you had in mind for
your family and we ask for your help, thank you.
Mr. Thornton: Any questions of the speaker, thank you ma'am.
Ms. Smith: Okay our final speaker Catherine Miller.
28
Ms. Miller: Hi, Catherine Miller, you were waiting to hear that about the last speaker, weren't
you. I just wanted to say that I would appreciate it if you would go ahead and
vote to recommend what city council had sent you without additional changes, it's
a compromise, and it's been going on three years. The discussions of how many
week, how many you have got, they are not helping, they are actually harmful and
I know unless you're a medical doctor you may not have taken a while to do no
harm but I am hoping that you wouldn't purposefully put something in place
that's going to harm your Virginia Beach neighbors. You know, you have talked
about the people, I have written you a couple of letters, I don't know if you have
read them but I did discuss about the traffic that is incurred from rentals and if
there are two what that additional would be and I have talked about some other
things with you. Just to remember, it isn't legal now to rent your house which is
why we are going through all this, it isn't a legal use, we are making it a legal use,
for those people who keep saying, you are allowed, it's legal, it isn't, Sandbridge
isn't different, we are a neighborhood, we have a lot of rentals, we sure do but so
do other places, but we are not different, we are like you. We want to live a nice
peaceful life, do we have parking problems, do we have other problems yes they
have been addressed, they have been talked about, we have houses that have 10,
12, 14 bedrooms in our neighborhood, so if you are talking about times three
that's 42 people twice a week really that's what you would like, that's I really
would not and parking, they are not going to bring 14 cars, 14 bedrooms, they
bring 20 cars, so I understand that there will be a plan in place that's fine, but I
would like you to think carefully about the fact that you are allowing so much
29
more traffic so many more people, so much more turnover and not just the people
who are coming to rent but also as I said the cleaners and the carpet cleaners and
the pool cleaners they are all in and out, in and out, in and out. I have had people
walked into my house, I have had people trespassing my property, it's just there
are so many people there, I don't know who belongs there and who doesn't. there
has been illegal activity going on in houses that are kind of empty, you know, you
call the police and they will come over and they are like oh okay yeah they were
there, there was a kid that was storing his cigarettes in an outdoor box in one of
them and he was meeting people and selling these illegal, you know, contraband
cigarettes that kind of thing, so it's not just that one time the people who are
coming in, it's the in and out, in and out, in and out, I don't know who belongs
there and who doesn't, so we don't like living that way, I don't think you would
like living that way, I just hope you will recommend what city council has done,
it's a compromise, it's a three-year process and I am sorry I rambled but thank
you.
Mr. Thornton: Any questions for Mrs. Miller, thank you.
Ms. Sandloop:No more speakers.
Mr. Thornton: No more speakers, okay with that we will close the public hearing and I would
like to offer a suggestion from our fellow planning commissioners to consider if
you will take the sheets that Kay gave us earlier that has blue, the blue wave on
the top and it's a sheet that shows there three pages there are, box put down on the
left the item, the middle column is the city council version and the right column is
30
our where we think we might be unless we change our thinking and I would like
to go through these and eliminate the ones that are not controversial, the ones that
we brought closure to and get them out of the way and in the next go to the items
that there is some debate minor debate not a lot of angst over and get those out of
the way and it maybe end up with two or three items that we think need a fair
amount of discussion, so does anybody have any problem with that process.
Mr. Horsley: Roll on Mr. Chairman.
Mr. Thornton: Thank you, alright, well I am going to read off the ones that in my mind are ones
that we have agreed to because in the right hand column it says so, so unless you
have reason to disagree and speak up and I want this to be a 100% fair debate and
if you aren't satisfied speak forth but home sharing we have agreed with. Parking
requirements, we have agreed with. Special events, we are okay with.
Responsible parties, we are okay with, with the exception of Jeff on the signage
and I am not picking on you, do we need to let that be in the second category of
discussion or.
Mr. Hodgson: We do.
Mr. Thornton: We do, okay fair enough that's what I want. Registration and taxes, we agree
with. The code section summary, we have agreed with but there is a footnote that
we want to make sure that they are simple and understandable, but will leave it as
it is. Trash, we agree with. Insurance, we agree with. Noise, we agree with. The
guest log, I am going to ask that now do we want to remove this, we have agreed
31
to remove that, is that are we comfortable with that removing it, okay, so we have
agreed with that one.
Ms. Rucinski: When you say, you are not talking about agree with city council, agree amongst
ourselves.
Mr. Thornton: Agree amongst ourselves, we discussed in a work session to remove it, so we are
all okay with removing that.
Ms. Oliver: Yeah, right.
Mr. Thornton: Check that box off. In the life safety, we have added a condition that would
make sure it's the USBC code, is that okay, okay and then the accessory
structures we are agreed with. Violations, we have agreed with and inspections
we want that removed, is that acceptable to remove that.
Ms. Wilson: That's not in the ordinance.
Mr. Thornton: That's not in the ordinance.
Ms. Wilson: That was in your prior ordinance but it's not in this ordinance.
Ms. Kwasny: So you have it on here that city council said inspect after 24-hour notice to owner
and contact person.
Ms. Wilson: It doesn't, Mr. Kemp, I am going to throw Mr. Kemp under bus, this is his.
Mr. Thornton: Alright, well, we have asked to have it removed and you all want it removed,
does that correct?
32
Ms. Wilson: Yes, we want it removed.
Mr. Thornton: Okay, that's what we have all agreed to, now we'll start over. I want to save the
conditional use permit as a debate item, I think probably the number of contracts
down in the middle page two, we have discussed amongst ourselves two contracts
within seven days is that we want to leave that as it is?
Mr. Ripley: No, up to.
Mr. Thornton: No more than.
Ms. Oliver: No more than, up to.
Mr. Ripley: I have some wording, I would propose.
Mr. Thornton: Okay.
Mr. Ripley: When the time comes.
Mr. Thornton: Well.
Ms. Kwasny: I think this is the time.
Mr. Thornton: Hang on, Jan has a question, but she wants to make some proposed language, you
wanna wait or ask now?
Ms. Rucinski: I want to ask my question.
Mr. Thornton: Go ahead.
33
Ms. Rucinski: So why does it have to be seven consecutive days, why couldn't it be five
consecutive days because that then sort of maybe as a compromise between the
two, I mean why was, I mean because there is a reason that seven days was.
Ms. Wilson: Because we were talking about weekly rentals I mean that was the discussion so
seven days is weekly rentals and it gets you out of the issue of what day you start
on that kind of Wednesday. We can do that to seven consecutive seven days.
Mr. Thornton: Well, they came to us with one per seven and we countered with no more than
two per seven is that how we ended our discussion the other night.
Mr. Horsley: Mike has got a different word.
Mr. Thornton: And you have got, okay, then now we are ready for your word.
Mr. Inman: I want to say as number eight and the ordinance short-term rental shall have no
more than I would submit but have no more than two rental contracts per any
consecutive seven-day period unless the CUP limits it to one.
Ms. Oliver: Right, okay.
Mr. Inman: That was the reason for putting up to two that's good, I like that.
Mr. Thornton: Okay.
Mr. Inman: If the CUP is used.
Ms. Wilson: That's assuming on the CUP.
Ms. Kwasny: On the part of the ordinance, yes.
34
Mr. Thornton: That would be true.
Mr. Kwasny: Okay, actually that's one version, if the CUP becomes the part of the ordinance.
Mr. Thornton: If the CUP doesn't, then it's a good point Kay.
Ms. Wilson: Actually the first paragraph of 241.2 says short-term rentals shall be subject to the
following conditions unless specifically modified by action of the city council in
granting a conditional use permit or creating a short-term rental overlay district,
so unless modified by a CUP is in there.
Mr. Wall: Okay,that's for all.
Ms. Wilson: That's for all.
Ms. Rucinski: That's for all, so then basically we with what city council is proposing is what is
in the ordinance, no?
Ms. Kwasny: If the CUP is applicable that will apply if a CUP is applicable.
Ms. Wilson: Grandfathering doesn't get a CUP.
Ms. Ripley: Well frankly I think it would be clearer to the public using this, if we put it in here
because they are not going to know about 241.2.
Ms. Wilson: No that is the conditions.
Ms. Ripley: Pardon.
Ms. Wilson: That's the conditions, they will know about 241.2 because that's the conditions,
and it's the first paragraph of all of the conditions that they have to abide by.
35
Mr. Thornton: So you don't think we need to add to the two contracts within seven days unless
modified by CUP.
Ms. Wilson: No.
Mr. Thornton: Okay, alright, you okay with the language that's in there blue wave sheet Mike?
We have amended there one contract to two contracts.
Mr. Inman: Right.
Ms. Wilson: Up to.
Mr. Thornton: Up to.
Ms. Wilson: It's always up to. If we say you can have two, you don't have to have two, you
don't have to have any, and you could have one.
Mr. Inman: [Crosstalk] No more than two, that's what a rule say no more than two, right now
it says no more than one, no more than two.
Mr. Thornton: No more than two.
Mr. Inman: And then it can be limited to one under the introductory paragraph.
Mr. Thornton: If there is a CUP, it can be negotiated.
Ms. Wilson: Yes.
Mr. Thornton: Okay let's see.
Ms. Oliver: We are done with that one?
36
Mr. Thornton: We are done with the number of contracts. So the next item is occupancy. We
have talked about this a lot, we were asked to approve two plus four, we have
decided that there is a reasonable,just a flat three, I think the argument is easy to
understand, we don't have to worry about high math, so anyway are we
comfortable with three, move on.
Mr. Hodgson: I think if we have up to or no more than.
Mr. Thornton: Well, three is back to Kay's point, if it says three per bedroom that means up to
three,right.
Ms. Wilson: Yeah, every time we put a number and we don't put up to, because the number is
the maximum.
Mr. Inman: It shall be two individuals, and I would read shall as being pretty strong.
Mr. Thornton: May is a better word than shall, shall be no more but may be up to three, how
does it read?
Mr. Ripley: I was trying to, I'd argue that I can tell you. I think if we just say up to or no more
than.
Mr. Horsley: Up to and no more than three.
Mr. Thornton: However you feel, you know, what we want on that Kay, no more than up to,
okay we got rid of, don't throw anything at me, so we have occupancy out of the
way, we have talked about guest log, right, approve the guest log. Time limit for
the CUP I think is a last; [Crosstalk] I almost see that to a [Crosstalk] let's do the
time limit for CUP.
37
Mr. Hodgson: Hold on a second.
Ms. Rucinski: You cannot do that if you haven't talked about the CUP yet.
Mr. Thornton: Well, I am assuming and I understand that. Okay let's forget that and go back to
the sign and we are down to sign. You have to tell us what you would like to sign
thing to read you, surf boards,rental signs, flags.
Mr. Hodgson: Well listen, I have no problem with a 2 x 2 or 4 x 1, 4 foot square sign but I just, I
have issue with why my neighbor can put a four square foot sign on his house to
rent his property but if I want to make decoys out of my house, I can only have a
one foot sign, it just, I don't understand why that is given a sign that could be 4
times the size of what we give everybody else for home business.
Mr. Thornton: So you are saying the idea we came up with one square foot sign, you want that
removed or you want us to not let that be our suggestion?
Mr. Hodgson: Next year when I am gone, you guys should look at the sign ordinance and say
okay a one square foot sign, can that be changed for home occupations? Well, I
just think if we consider as a home business, which it is the essence, they should
be consistent, and I don't care which consistency, I got no problem with the
architectural sign, I just would rather see some consistency with the size of the
signs.
Mr. Thornton: So if we assume if the architectural sign is exempted from this, okay so we are
back to it would be then probably easier to just say the sign would be consistent
with the existing ordinance.
38
Mr. Hodgson: I go back to, I am okay with a four foot square sign, I just, and I am not going to
fall on my sword over this but I think either we need to look at it now on this or
next year somebody should relook at a sign ordinance for home occupation, I
mean, I don't necessarily want a four foot sign on my neighbor's house selling
anything.
Mr. Thornton: Well in this case, it's interesting, the city proposal is much more liberal than the
way we are thinking, correct or at least you want to thinking to be consistent,
Mike.
Mr. Inman: I have a question for Kay which is by exempting architectural signs does that
mean that they are exempted from this ordinance but other sign regulations apply
to them.
Ms. Wilson: No. They are not considered signs.
Mr. Inman: They are exempted from any sign regulation?
Ms. Wilson: They are not considered signs.
Mr. Inman: Oh, they are not signs.
Ms. Wilson: They are not considered signs because signs advertise something and if I put a
turtle done really advertising thing.
Mr. Thornton: Alright, Dave Redmond.
Mr. Redmond: Jeff I understand your concern but I think there has more of a concern to do with
other parts of the public domain and simply in this ordinance. I don't think a four
39
foot, I mean I don't like a four square foot sign on the side about 8000 square foot
house or something like that is all be a deal, I think what city council has done is
reasonable, you know, the big dolphin on the side of the place, I don't know how
to argue with that, I just don't know how we really get our arms surround it, I
don't know that is really frankly all that much of, you know, pervasive thing
anyway, so I get it, but I think that's really more, I think it's a little different
discussion than the context that we have of the short-term rental, I think we
probably should keep them separate but there is a guy who whatever repairs
watches in his garage should have a one foot sign or a five, you know, I just don't
know that we can get that deep into that in this context Lord knows we got
enough here.
Mr. Inman: So in my question, do you.
Mr. Redmond: I understand your concern is a both home based occupations in one way.
Mr. Horsley: I am not sure that they are home occupation. This is not a home occupation,
short-term rentals.
Mr. Redmond: I miss spoke, somebody you know Airbnb's his house for two week and a year,
it's not the same thing is somebody who whatever builds decoys 50 weeks a year
and goes on big hit for the other two, but anyway I think that's a little off what we
are doing is my point.
Ms. Rucinski: But I think it's still running a business out of your home, I mean it is a business,
it's just your business model is different.
40
Mr. Horsley: Yeah definitely.
Ms. Kwasny: Yeah that may be something for the city to attack later because they are
designated differently in the ordinance right now [Crosstalk].
Mr. Thornton: Well what I would like now is a suggestion.
Mr. Redmond: I think city council got it right.
Mr. Inman: I think it's okay to segregate this particular kind of signage from other kind of
signage and just say this is what we are doing short term rentals.
Mr. Thornton: So I have an informal motion to leave it and say we are okay with the city council
recommendation, is that, I need to hold out on odds on this one, okay, I mean in
back to your point, maybe we can, Kevin this is really more enforcement, if the
city council four square foot thing goes into effect, do you see this being a great
big giant nightmare problem with people advertising Airbnbs and stuff I mean we
have a lot of trouble now there, now with signage, violations of the signs.
Mr. Kemp: No , I cannot recall having, we have a lot of problems with certain types of signs
but for home based occupations. I can't ever recall dealing with an issue.
Mr. Thornton: So if it's a home-based business in a place where there is short-term rental
activity going on, they are going to have to have a sign that conforms with the
home-based section of the code.
Mr. Kemp: Correct and that is one square feet and affixed to the building.
41
Mr. Thornton: We are not changing that by agreeing with the four square foot sign that deals
with short-term rentals, a monkey with a piece of the ordinance that deals with.
Mr. Kemp: Correct,because with the short-term rentals,we are creating a new use in the code
with its own regulations. we are not calling it a home occupation so the home
occupation ordinance would not be changed.
Mr. Thornton: Okay well I would then suggesting in that category we put agree with CC
version, anybody, okay let's do that Kay, you got that one.
Ms. Wilson: I got that one.
Mr. Thornton: Alright, so now it looks like we are down to.
Mr. Inman: Chairman?
Mr. Thornton: Yes sir.
Mr. Inman: I just want an opportunity to articulate why I suggested that change just for the
record to maybe obvious to a lot of people but I would rather put it on the records
so to speak, number eight in the ordinance about the two rental contracts, may I?
Mr. Thornton: Sure.
Mr. Inman: Okay, well I just think of we have been struggling all along with you know we
have got different needs and different types of neighborhoods all over the city,
some of which have a tremendously long history of short-term rentals and
seasonal rentals and others that have almost no history until recent years of
Airbnb and just I guess the popularity of the people investing in homes for the
42
sole purpose of renting them and but is normally typical neighborhood that
doesn't have any rentals, so trying to give us the flexibility to deal with different
types of homes, different neighborhoods that have different histories and different
makeup than this gives us a flexibility to do so, I think.
Ms. Thornton: Thank you, okay it seems to me and correct me if I am wrong that we are down
to item number two on the first page conditional use permits and however we
resolve that is going to find itself in a couple of spots in terms of dates,
grandfathering and time limits on the last page, so if we come up with the solution
to CUP that will lead to an answer to grandfathering and an answer to time limits
for the CUP, so I would like to open the floor to debating the conditional use
permit.
Ms. Wilson: Did we address the code summary section?
Mr. Thornton: It's possible we did or did not.
Ms. Wilson: Code section summary.
Mr. Thornton: Well, we intended to I think we have agreed to city council and we want the
summary simple and understandable, well that as long as the folks that write the
stuff, agree with that, so we did that one and before we go on to the sort of the
elephant in the room have we missed anything else we need to talk about before
we get to the real issue.
Ms. Rucinski: So there are three others that we missed.
43
Mr. Thornton: The three others are conditional use permit which then would lead to
grandfathering a date and then would lead to time limits for the CUP being
administratively reviewed. So if we get the first out of the way, the other two
should follow with relative ease. Anybody want to start the discussion, I know
we have had a discussion this morning about it, but now we are in the public and
this has to go on the records, so.
Mr. Inman: I will start.
Mr. Thornton: Okay, go ahead please.
Mr. Weiner: Let's get back to where we were last time when this is here with us and we about
eight to nine months ago, ten months ago I thought we put something forward that
was pretty reasonable and decent, we all pretty much agreed, no conditional use
permits back then and I still do today and somebody else said it earlier not all
areas are the same, we can't consider one for the other, there is a lot of things that
we have to think about here, because this is going to really determine what
happens with short-term rentals. Karen and I have a couple of times there is no
tool how we are going to regulate this short-term rental, when you go to register,
and I think I said this in our informal workshop when we go, there has to be a
process and I have talked to staff about this, when you go to register for short-
term rental pay your taxes right then and there that's when you needed to have an
inspection, we need to have inspection of the house, determine that if you meet all
the regulations. If you don't meet the regulations, you don't get a short-term
rental, you don't get to deal with the city, I don't think that's, to me it's not rocket
44
science, now we are talking about maybe overlays going overlays but that's way
down the road so short-term rentals there, when you are going overlay that's when
you bring up your short-term rentals for each overlay again it's my opinion.
When we get to, it's going to be kind of hard to say well John here we can give
him a short-term rental but Joe over here three houses down we are not going to
give him one, that's going to get little bit discriminatory now how we are going to
handle that, I don't know how the city is going to handle that. In the scene, I just
really don't, there has to be another way besides conditional use permits.
Mr. Thornton: Your position is you don't want it here, okay and that's what I would really like
at the end of this I think we are going to have to have consensus on whether to
leave it in our overall recommendation or not and then vote on that overall
recommendation and if you can't bring yourself to agree with that's okay.
Mr. Weiner: One thing I am going to add real quick and this is people saying protecting a
neighborhoods, protecting neighborhoods as you are picking up the phone and
calling 311, 911 or any non-emergency number, that's going to get back to the
city, that's when people find out that's been one, two, three, three strikes you are
out, rule or whatever, you don't need a conditional use permit to do that. It's
being civic engagement and taking care of your neighborhood is a big part of it
too I mean something happens to my neighborhood, I am going to call 911 or
whatever to see what happens, and I am not going to, any way that's about it.
Mr. Thornton: Okay commissioner Weiner has spoken, Dave Redmond.
45
Mr. Redmond: Well, I had a question I am not sure how you are defining consensus because I
get a hard time bringing that how will ever come to consensus on this issue but
me nevertheless we are going to get an informal sort of raising of the hands and
then go with that, something that I am okay with that but I don't know where it's
not going to have 11 people agreeing on this, so just I want to add.
Mr. Thornton: Well, I agree, I mean I agree with you but at the end of the day when we vote, we
have got to put something in this document to send forth and you can those of us
who are on vote, we can vote that we agree to send it forth or we don't agree to
send it forth, yes Karen.
Ms. Kwasny: I share David your thought process and you know that I do because it initially I
felt as though conditional use permits were, you know, a real monkey wrench
because there is not an objective tool through which you apply them; however,
exclusive of Sandbridge I think in relation to the rest of the city I really have to
look at this from a personal standpoint and the CUP right now is the only measure
a neighborhood has to make some decisions about the quality of life within their
neighborhood one and then two I don't think it's so far off the policy on overlays
will become possible and will be something that city council addresses and then is
the alternative route and this will be returned to in order to address the CUP
aspect in overlays will be provided because I think this is while we may create an
ordinance and city council may approve, this is going to go on, this is going to
continue to be a conundrum for the city and so I feel as though at the moment
CUPs are best method by which we allow neighborhoods to have a continued
voice in relation to how these effect individual residents.
46
Mr. Thornton: Ron and then Dee.
Mr. Ripley: I agree, I think what Karen just said the, we just if there is no objective tool then
why do we have a conditional use permit and we deal with conditional use
permits day in and day out on this commission and that the purpose of it is to try
to mitigate differences between the neighborhoods and the applicant and maybe
how staff feels about it and how we feel about it so I mean that's what we do, if
we cannot do that, then we have to get off the commission that's what I say. You
know, and I think it's the only right the citizens have really to have some say on
their own neighborhood, when you get right down to it. City council, when this
got to the city council if we follow this, this is a very first thing that they jumped
on and this you can make whatever recommendation you like but I think when it
gets to the city council this is what you are going to get and the other thing I will
just point out is that we just spent some time talking about the number of
consecutive days, number of bedrooms and we said up to, who is the arbitrator of
that, Mr. Kemp, so you are going to make that decision because I don't think he
wants to do that, he would rather have it made in a public body to determine who
if you are in a neighborhood and you feel like it maybe two per week is going to
be really tax the neighborhood that's going to be a problem one per week is okay,
then that's what the conditional use permit would do the way we are drafting it
right here conceptualizing it, let's put it that way, so I support the conditional use
permit, I think city council got it right.
Mr. Thornton: Dee and then Don.
47
Ms. Oliver: I have a tendency to grade, especially when you read it you know two per week
with the CUP unless the CUP dictates that and Kevin I think in informal today we
talked about or you spoke about guidelines so that you just didn't have this just
sort of group of people that just decided they just didn't, in fairness to the person
applying for the CUP so that is if he went within the guidelines that was set forth
like we do for any type of occupancy correct?
Mr. Kemp: Correct, I think the thought process along that is you have the regulations, you
know that you need to meet this, this parking requirement occupancy if they
check all those boxes, you know, that would be an objective way to say okay, they
check on those boxes and there is nothing special about this property, you know,
we should grant it versus you know someone who is coming in for a CUP who is
deficient and a lot of those then that would be a question, you know, they are
deficient and there has been numerous noise violations on the property and that
sort of the thing in the neighborhood comes out against I think that would cause to
consider not approving, if that make sense, you know, I don't think that and Kay
can back me up on this but the approval or denial cannot just be based on whether
a neighborhood likes or dislikes the homeowner.
Ms. Oliver: Right, and that's where you want to make sure that the person applying for rental
short-term rental is protected in that so that it isn't like that.
Mr. Kemp: Correct, yeah Barry mentioned that this morning g too that we would want that
objective.
Mr. Thornton: Jan and then Mike.
48
Ms. Rucinski: You know I am agreeing with what they are saying because we have all
discovered through all of this process that not all properties in Virginia Beach are
created equal but I think this is the best way we have to be able to treat them all
equal because of what some people will be looking for and asking and allowing
the neighborhoods to voice their opinion and have some input. There may be
some areas that don't care if their neighbors are running the short-term rental and
there will be some neighborhoods that have a lot of input and want to have some
real voice in it and I think that although I am not 100% in favor of the CUP, I
think the overlay is probably a better way to go at it, I think it's the fairest way to
give everybody their voice and their opportunity to be heard.
Mr. Thornton: Thank you, Mike.
Mr. Inman: I just wanted to clarify I hope I am right but I would like to see if I am right or
not. If everybody checks the box, all the boxes get checked, you get the permit
you applied for that is I don't think what we are talking about, I mean, you still
have to evaluate is it two rentals or is it one, which is the only thing to process
you can work in order to have some evaluation as Ron pointed out and so it could
be neighborhood opposition comes into play, location, just in general what is the
location that might be favorable to a short-term rental or highly unfavorable,
wouldn't want to begin to try to list the criteria but so it's mostly objective but
there is some subjectivity involved in it.
Mr. Thornton: So does that mean you are in favor of?
Mr. Inman: I am in favor of the conditional use permit.
49
Mr. Thornton: Okay and who had Jack Wall and then Don.
Mr. Wall: I support the conditional use permit, it does as discussed as Kevin kind of leaded
to, it provides you know a delivery process, you know, it does allow for a public
input and it does give them a voice so for those reasons, I am going to support it.
Mr. Thornton: Okay, thank you. Jeff, oh I am sorry Don has his hand up.
Mr. Horsley: I thought you just wanted me to be last.
Mr. Thornton: No, I am going to be last.
Mr. Horsley: You are going to be last, I think I have remembered the last time, we voted on this
that there will only be two of us up here that voted for a permit.
Ms. Rucinski: You missed the opportunity to voice our opinion.
Mr. Horsley: And I think I said and it would be at time in a future way you would come back
and say I think yeah we are right but anyway [Crosstalk], no it was in the informal
session that I say that, but I think I remember in the comments that I made that
day that you know my goal was to protect the neighborhoods and I think the use
permit is the like the only way we can protect neighborhoods if we are going to
allow short-term rentals and also if we give it by right, it's awful hard to take it
away, when use permits if things go, I mean use permits can be done away in the
future if needed be, I think that's the best way to protect the neighborhood and
that's my main goal is to protect the neighborhoods and the areas the resort areas
in our city that have been doing this for some time you know and I said back then,
it was fine to grandfather them as far as I was concerned because I thought they
50
were doing a good job, so I think when we tweaked what council has given us and
changed a few things and I think that's probably the reason that you know council
could've just approved their versions and send it on, but they send it back to us
because they wanted to make sure they got it right and I think the few tweaks that
we have put in it, will help council realize that they have re-looked at this whole
issue and come back with this and so I think what we have got today and what I
think we are getting ready to approve if Mr. Weiner will support us will be
something that council can live with and that's my piece.
Mr. Thornton: And you were right. [Irrelevant Conversation] We have got two more speakers, I
want Jeff s thoughts and I want Mr. Redmond's thoughts, then I don't have to
take a straw pull.
Mr. Hodgson: Well, I did think he made some very valid points but I think the conditional use
permit is the way to go. I just think the biggest thing is it gives the community of
voice to express how they feel and it may allow us to regulate whether it's one
rental that week or two rentals that week so I think it's the right way to go, so I
am in support of that.
Mr. Thornton: And you care to speak.
Mr. Redmond: Sure, I have never liked the conditional use permit, I think it's going to prove to
be a lot less workable than we would like and for a lot of reasons that I have
articulated in the past, now that said I don't have any objection to us, when you
get in that and I am going to support it when we do and partly because as I said
last time city council seems to have indicated that this is a the way that they are
51
going to go, very frankly I think they need to go ahead and make their decisions
now and stop torturing us and to others with this, it's gone on long enough, they
just need to go ahead and make their decision now and that seems to be the way
that they are going now, I will also mention though you guys have gotten all the
same emails that I have, million of them and there is an email from lady in Lago
Mar if you read it, I did, about all the difficulty she has had with the neighbor's
house next door and he rents out his pool house and there are times there are 40
people there and the trash, and the noise are unbelievable and we have been and I
tell you what it really upset me and to think how hard that would be to endure if
you are a neighbor, so I don't think the conditional use permit is going to be a real
smooth, you know well-oiled machine in this process but if anything can help a
situation like that and help someone deal with it than I will be very pleased
because I do know that there are people like that who have these terrible situations
with jerks and knuckle heads who rent their place and abuse hospitality with little
thought to what they do to others and you know that of course is terribly upsetting
so anyway I am going to support whatever we come up with and I am not going to
stand in a way of the conditional use permit part, I don't care for it, but you know
I see where this is going.
Mr. Thornton: David.
Mr. Weiner: I understand, I am not going stand away either by all means put it in, I am not
going to vote for it but please put it in and I feel like in the future, I feel like right
on this, I might find out I'm wrong who knows but now I feel like that's the way I
am going to go.
52
Mr. Thornton: We all got to vote our conscious now having 11-10 people clearly articulate 10
and a half that have clearly articulated that they have some, that they are in favor
of it, my inclination was to listen to what Barry has said in terms of what the
burden is going to be on the staff but it's back to Don and protecting the
neighborhood, it's going to be a lot of work on you guys, it is going to be a lot of
work on you folks that we leave behind and those who follow us because you can
imagine that the people will get upset with guns, and children and dogs and
kennels, there is going to be a lot of angst at this podium going forward or
lecturing, whatever you want to call it, so just when the folks come up here and
this gets to be a public arena just make sure you keep it in check and if the people
have a valid argument listen to it, but if it's just people and the neighborhood are
complaining and hate their neighbors that's the part you are going to have a hard
time with, so having said that now what we need to do is talk about the
grandfathering date, the city council wanted this in here but they arbitrarily picked
July 01, 2018 well that's already happened so that if you haven't gotten your stuff
together and paid your taxes, it's too bad, too late, we came along and suggested
11/01 at our work session, there has been some discussion today about having an
effective date that's the date of the ordinance, is that can we do that or we are
getting in trouble or.
Ms. Wilson: We can do the effect that the date that the ordinance becomes effective which is
either 11/01/2019 or six months after it's adopted whichever is later, so I would
imagine that they will get it adopted prior to 11/01/19, I am not going to put
53
money on it, but that they have passed a resolution saying that's when they will
go into effect.
Ms. Rucinski: So my question is this what will the speaker that we had and I am sorry I cannot
remember her name that talked about the reason they were looking for
grandfathering further out was because they already have rental contracts up until
next you know through a year.
Ms. Wilson: That would be this summer. November, is after this summer as is six months.
Mr. Thornton: It's November of 19.
Ms. Wilson: That's exactly why council did the resolution at least I would imagine that's the
reason that they were worrying about people's plans for this summer.
Mr. Thornton: This takes you to next summer. This did take you the end of next summer and if
its six months later, it's almost a whole another season.
Ms. Wilson: I will anticipate that they will, that it will be done somewhere, I don't think they
will wait till August, if they do; it's six months from August.
Mr. Thornton: Well, I will suggest we have the effective date of the ordinance whenever the
ordinance is effective is the date the grandfathering date whatever date and that
anybody disagree with that, no reason to just that will be a date it will be known
by all that day will be known, it will be part of a legal documents somewhere and
there is no question about it. Are you okay with that?
Mr. Ripley: I am okay with that.
54
Mr. Thornton: Nodding heads at both ends, okay we are right at up that way Kay and then the
last item, we go back in a minute and review each and every one of these because
we got to get it right otherwise I am going to come back and do it again and the
five year, the time limit for it we had discussed amending their two year renewal
administratively to make it a five year expiration, so any discussion on that. We
can either leave it like they had it or we put a five-year time limit on it still with
administrative reviews, correct, from two to five, we discussed at a workshop, we
are willing to leave it at five.
Ms. Rucinski: Well, the only problem is if it's having issues, they could bring it back to them
before that two or five years.
Mr. Thornton: Their issues, they are going to be known longer for.
Ms. Rucinski: We just try not to see that every two years.
Mr. Thornton: Yeah, we don't want it back here every two year but now in terms of it being
every two years, it can be done administratively anyway.
Mr. Frankenfield: Right, it wouldn't be coming.
Mr. Thornton: What is your staff thought, what would you prefer to see,this is really in your.
Mr. Frankenfield: We will support whatever you and staff[Crosstalk].
Ms. Wilson: Very diplomatic.
Mr. Thornton: [Crosstalk] you said that they did this for us, the CUP we know we didn't do that
for you but.
55
Mr. Frankenfield: I actually have a comment about everything if I can, one of the things I
heard throughout the discussion today is there is a great expectation for fairness,
for equity, for enforcement throughout this process and at the very, and that
would require tremendous amount of resources which we have not identified yet,
but we will identify. There is a commitment by the city manager and that once
this ordinance is passed, Kevin Kemp will be tasked and staff will be tasked with
developing policies and procedures on how to deal with the registration and deal
with inspections and deal with this you know all the stuff, so that will happen over
period of six months, whether you have conditional use permit or not, there still
will be a question who you call, how do you enforce these things and staff will
have to work to make that happened and we are committed to doing that, it will
happen and the concerns that people have about it, we are just going to have to
deal with it as they come, so there is a tremendous amount of work yet to do and
that I cannot promise you how it's going to be done, I can promise you that we
will take it seriously, it will get addressed, we will have policies and procedures in
place and we will make a huge pitch for additional staff as needed to make this
work, that's all I got.
Mr. Ripley: So Barry the part of that process is reviewing each and every short-term rental
that's out there for compliance, is that what I am hearing too, that's what you said,
we are going have to look at the parking and all that, is that part of it?
Mr. Frankenfield: Yes, in another words every registration that we get from the
commissioner will be reviewed by the zoning staff and at least preliminarily we
are saying that we will have some sort of certificate that we would create that
56
would be then acknowledged that they met the requirements, so that will be the
first staff contact. We will enter this information in our electronic database which
we called Accela, we will have what do you call reminders in there whether it's
two years or five years which again the zoning administrator will have to be
responsible to make sure that the staff inspector then inspect those conditional use
permit, probably the biggest two issues our inspectors have is we don't drive
around looking for props, but we have callings and reports on violations and then
we have the work of following up on all the conditional use permits and ensuring
that those conditions are being complied with, so it will be just another day of us
just be more work and we will integrate that into our database, we will integrate
that into our files, we used to call them in the old days, so to acknowledge or
identify when that inspection would have to happen, so I see this as first case
when the registration will come over to us, that they will have to prove it that it
needs a zoning requirements and then they will have to do some study and issue
this certificate and then it will come up again either by complaints or by the term
that you have identified two years or five years, it will come up in our database
and then we will have to inspect it. So Kevin has been dying to say something
and your microphones are not working over there people so.
Mr. Kemp: To elaborate, just you are saying that one needs to be inspected, the mechanism
that is in place to do that is the current registration when they have to review with
the commissioner, so we are not going to do 2,000 at once, we will do them as
they come in, we will address it and it's Barry who got pretty specific on some
stuff. I don't think he think that we've just been sitting here on our hands for the
57
last three years and now we have to start thinking about how we are going to do it.
We have been working on policies, procedures, forms and you know you have a
good idea how it's going to be done.
Ms. Oliver: Bob should I ask a question, can I ask Kevin a question?
Mr. Thornton: Sure.
Ms. Oliver: So your Accela system you are working on a way that those are register go into
your system and then when they go, come up for renewal you are flagged in some
way so it's not such an onerous process that you have to hire somebody to look at
that, you are going to get a flag on an element right and be able to review it. If
there is no violations fairly simple process correct.
Mr. Kemp: Correct our Accela, whatever that timeframe is we can trigger that to come also
on that day it pops up.
Ms. Oliver: Okay, yeah that's a pretty cool system.
Mr. Kemp: [Crosstalk].
Mr. Thornton: Okay.
Mr. Frankenfield: If I could, just the Accela system actually this is such a big issue
nationwide that there is a module for this software program that track short-term
rentals so the logical issue is that we would buy that module and we would
integrate that into our system, so this is something that has been done in many
other cities through this mechanism and that's how we would do it.
58
Mr. Thornton: Well, I don't know whether it's appropriate or not but I am going to make a
motion and if somebody can second this, but I want Kay to follow me, I am going
to move that following items are that we have agreed with city council, the ones
we have agreed with out of the initial draft to this are as follows. Home sharing,
parking requirement, special events, responsible party, signs, registration and
taxes, code section summary, trash, insurance requirements, noise, accessory
structures, violations, those we are all in agreement with. To follow the second
part of my motion is these are items that need amending, item number two
conditional use permits; we want to amend the date to the effective date of the
ordinance. On number of contracts we want to amend that to up to two contracts
within seven days, on occupancy we want to amend that to read three per
bedroom and grandfathering.
Mr. Redmond: Up to three per bedroom.
Mr. Thornton: Up to, grandfathering, we want to need to change the date, the effective date of
the ordinance and then on time limits for the CUP, we want to make that a five
year expiration, so those the amendments and the last category is removal and we
want to remove the guest log requirement and we want to remove the inspection
requirement and if I covered the basis, I would like a second.
Mr. Redmond: Second.
Mr. Thornton: Second from Mr. Redmond.
Mr. Ripley: That includes with council on the sign, you skipped that [Crosstalk].
59
Mr. Weiner: I am going to vote yes but just for the record I am 100% against conditional use
permits.
Mr. Thornton: Very good, any further discussion, this is as Bob Dole used to say when he left
some senate sections, he is going to adjourned signee dye, I am going to leave
signee dye, I can't adjourned signee dye, the rest of you folks have to be back
next month, but anyone call for the question.
Ms. Sandloop:The vote is open. By vote of 11-0, agenda item D3 has been approved as
amended.
Mr. Horsley: Mr. Chairman if I might, I will remissed if I didn't say publically how much I
have enjoyed working with the three commissioners that will be serving their last
meeting today, I have been around long time, I have met a lot of faces on planning
commission and I have made lot of new friends, and I think I have got three good
friends, they will be leaving this commission and look forward to seeing them
back in the future, thank you sir.
Mr. Thornton: Thank you well as the departing chairman, I would like to say especially today
this is my last meeting in eight years of being here, this was probably I would
have to say the most complicated, maybe even the most difficult and I want to
thank all of you over for working through this. We have had many hours of time
together and Barry said it earlier I think the intent here was to listen to hear what
you all have had to say to be fair about it and hopefully when we seen this on to
city council, they will look at it and thank us, we spent a lot of time working on it
in the summer and they kicked it back so we're, you know, I am comfortable that
60
we have done our job and we have done our work and I am proud of the work that
we have done in the time that you all had put into it and thank you for supporting
me in my last years of being the chairman, so with that, we will adjourn.
