PUBLIC HEARING: March 3, 2020 MEETING DATE: March 17, 2020
• Background:
In 2008, the City of Virginia Beach adopted the Resort Area Strategic Action
Plan. Since 2008, a great deal of development has occurred and the need to
adapt to changing lifestyles and preferences persists. Therefore, City and Resort
Area leadership agreed that it is time to refresh the goals and initiatives, establish
updated priorities, and review the existing Resort Area boundaries. The Resort
Area Strategic Action Plan (RASAP) 2030 goals are designed to reflect existing
conditions with residential and commercial development, and to establish a
transparent, inclusive, comprehensive process that defines and prioritizes the
goals of the stakeholders and the City. The end result is a plan that has clear,
measurable initiatives for implementation.
• Considerations:
The public hearing will be held on March 3, 2020. The meeting date for City
Council's consideration is scheduled for March 17, 2020.
Key changes to the Plan include updated and clear goals and actions for the next
10 years with an expanded Resort Area boundary to include the Virginia
Aquarium & Marine Science Center. The RASAP 2030 action items are: adopt
the best practices of a Central Management Entity, develop a comprehensive
Mobility Plan, design and implement Streetscape Improvements, enhance and
develop connected Green/Open Spaces, design and construct a Gateway at 21st
Street that provides a sense of welcome and arrival, support Impactful Projects
that benefit the Resort Area and City of Virginia Beach, and support Residential
and Mixed-Use development in the Resort Area. Based on stakeholders'
concerns and input, the updated Plan places a strong focus on the provision of
key services such as transportation, parking, safety, enhanced outreach and
engagement with homeless persons and panhandlers, beautification, green open
spaces, maintenance, connectivity; and, the city-wide issue of Sea level Rise and
Coastal Resilience.
Page 2 of 2
The Plan is a culmination of a 15-month planning process led by City staff,
supported by the Work Program Architects (WPA) consultant team, and guided
by the RASAP 2030 Steering Committee. Public outreach consisted of monthly
Steering Committee meetings, stakeholder interviews, presentations to civic
groups/professional organizations, two public workshops, and two online surveys
engaging over 3,000 people. A web page was created,
www.VBQov.com/resortsQa to aid in disseminating information to the public with
regard to meetings and information sharing. Emphasis was given to note that
renderings in the Plan are conceptual to solicit public input only and that each
action item will have its own public process.
■ Recommendations:
Staff recommends approval. The Planning Commission placed this item on the
Consent Agenda at its meeting on February 12, 2020, passing the item by a vote
of 9-0.

Strategic Action Plan 2030 which will supersede the Virginia Beach Resort Area Strategic Action Plan 2008 and to Amend
Sections 1.1 (Planning Areas Planned Land Use Map), 1.2 (Urban Areas)Strategic Growth Area Locator Map,and text
pertaining to the Resort Strategic Growth Area.
Summary of Request
• In 2008,the City of Virginia Beach adopted the "Resort Area Strategic Action Plan." Since 2008,a great deal of
development has occurred and the need to adapt to changing lifestyles and preferences persists.Therefore,City
and Resort Area leadership have agreed that it is time to refresh goals and initiatives,establish priorities and
review the existing resort area boundaries.The Resort Area Strategic Action Plan (RASAP)goals are to reflect
existing conditions with residential and commercial development,establish a transparent, inclusive,
comprehensive process that defines and prioritizes the goals of the stakeholders and the City to produce a plan
that has clear, measurable initiatives for implementation.
• The planning process kicked off in late 2018 and consisted of three phases(understanding,exploring/prioritizing
and deciding).The process was led by City Staff,supported by the Work Program Architects consultant team,
and guided by the RASAP Steering Committee.The first phase reviewed the 2008 Resort Area Strategic Action
Plan for a detailed understanding of the challenges,opportunities and goals of the stakeholders.The second
phase evaluated and prioritized feedback from phase 1 to establish development/design strategies and project
priorities. Lastly,the third phase narrowed the development strategies and prioritized projects to produce an
initial draft Resort Area Strategic Action Plan 2030.The public outreach consisted of monthly steering
committee meetings, stakeholder interviews, presentations to civic groups and professional organizations,two
public workshops with approximately 350 attendees,and two online surveys via publicinput.com with
approximately 2,600 participants.
• The resulting Plan is a strategic plan that sets goals for the next 10 years based on a clear vision established by
the Steering Committee and vetted through the three-part planning process and a series of public workshops
and surveys. Public engagement included participation by over 3,000 people, resulting in a clear set of priorities
to guide the Resort Area to 2030.The Resort Area Strategic Action Plan 2030 priority action items are:adopt the
best practices of a Central Management Entity,develop a comprehensive Mobility Plan, design and implement
Streetscape Improvements,enhance and develop connected Green/Open Spaces, design and construct a
Gateway at 215t Street that provides a sense of welcome and arrival,support Impactful Projects that benefit the
Resort Area and City of Virginia Beach,and support Residential and Mixed-Use development in the Resort Area.
• Based on stakeholders'concerns and input,the updated Plan places a strong focus on the provision of key
services such as transportation, parking,safety, beautification,green/open spaces, maintenance,connectivity,

and stormwater management.Although implementation of this Plan is largely dependent on private initiatives
and market forces, public projects can be phased strategically to incentivize private investment in the area.The
Plan divides priority projects into three separate phases:Short-Term projects(6 mo.-2 yrs.), Mid-Term projects
(2 yrs. -5 yrs.) and Long-Term projects(6 yrs.- 10 yrs.).
Recommendation
Staff recommends approval of this Ordinance for the adoption and incorporation into the Virginia Beach Comprehensive
Plan,the"Resort Area Strategic Action Plan 2030,"which will supersede the Virginia Beach Resort Area Strategic Action
Plan 2008, and to amend sections 1.1 (Planning Areas Planned Land Use Map), 1.2 (Urban Areas)Strategic Growth Area

induding Rudee Walk,Pacific Avenue,and a new public parking structure on 25th St.An innovative,
flexible Form-Based Code is enabling new private development that provides a variety of housing
types and a greater range of year-round retail and entertainment for both residents and visitors alike.
An arts community has emerged in the Resort's Central Beach District.called the ViBe Creative District,
and,as a result,more opportunities and choices are enabled in creative expression.The Resort Area
Strategic Action Plan 2030 was adopted by the City Council on .2020 and is
available in the online document library at www.vbgov.com/Planning.

PLAN RECOMMENDATIONS
The Resort Area Strategic Action Plan 2030 boundary includes multiple sub-districts.
Each of these districts has its own distinct character which.through additional placemaking efforts,
will be the key to a diverse resort area that has something for everyone to enjoy year-round.
1. Central Beach
•
•
•
•
•
•
.encompasses the 21st Street Gateway,the
yjj ,Creative District,the Virginia Museum of Contemporary Art(MOCA)and 19th Street,
which is planned to be a key multimodal corridor.
2. Marina '
•
showcases the working waterfront.There is
great opportunity for mixed-use redevelopment that includes hotels,retail,restaurants,
business and residential uses that are compatible with the adjacent Seatadc and Shadowlawn
neighborhoods. All development should be connected with a public walk that offers
recreational connections to Rudee Inlet and is integrated with future flood gates and barriers.
3. Laskin Gateway
•
•
is a key connection point for
North End businesses and neighborhoods and the Hilltop commercial area to the west
Linkhorn Bay is a beautiful tidal backdrop to this gateway.
4. Oceanfront Corridor includes Atlantic and Pacific Avenues. This is the main north-south
connector in the Resort Area and is the area where the maiority of visitors stay and gather.
This corridor welcomes millions of people to Virginia Beach and must be a beautiful and
inviting place forpedestrians to shop and dine.as well as carry a significant amount of traffic.A
mobility plan and streetscape improvements are needed to accomplish these goals,

RECOMMENDED FOR APPROVAL - CONSENT
Mr. Weiner: Great, thank you. Next is item number six, the City of Virginia Beach. An
ordinance and incorporate into the Virginia Beach comprehensive plan, the
Virginia Beach area Strategic Action Plan 2030, which is supersedes the Virginia
Beach Resort Area, Strategic Action Plan of 2008 and to amend sections 1.1 and
Mrs. Warren is going to come up and read this into the record for us and tell us
about this.
Ms. Warren: Good afternoon Madam Chair, commissioners. Thank you for having me here
today. My name is Kathy Warren. I am the SGA manager for the Department of
Planning and Community Development. Today, as you have already read the
ordinance,we are requesting an ordinance to adopt and incorporate into the Virginia
Beach Comprehensive Plan the Virginia Beach Resort Area Strategic Action Plan
2030, which supersedes the Virginia Beach Resort Area Strategic Action Plan of
2008 and to amend sections 1.1 planning areas planned land use map 1.2 urban
areas strategic growth area locator map and text pertaining to the resort strategic
growth area. I'd like to briefly review the proposed priority items that the RASAP
Steering Committee has established as part of this process. They are: to adopt the
best practices of a central management entity, develop a comprehensive mobility
plan, design and implement streetscape improvements, enhance and develop
connected green and open spaces, design and construct a gateway at 21st street that
provides a sense of welcome and arrival, support impactful projects that benefit the
resort area as well as the City of Virginia Beach, and support residential and mixed
use development within the resort area. Just a few additional comments about the
process, this was a 15-month process with a Steering Committee that was in place
that represented all facets of the resort area. Our public engagement included two
workshops and two public input.com surveys; we were able to reach over 3,000
people with that public engagement process. And finally, one important point to
make note of,we showed conceptual renderings in the plan,one of Rudy Loop,one
of the Atlantic Avenue of what it could look like, and then one of the Gateway 21st
Street and we just want to reiterate that these are conceptual renderings that we
1
showed in order to generate input from the public to see what they liked and did
not like, and there will be a public process for each going forward. Thank you.
Mr. Weiner: Thank you. Okay,is there any opposition this being placed on the consent agenda?
Thank you,Madam Chair there are many items on the consent agenda are for short
term rental. The planning commission places the following applications for
conditional use permit for short term rental on the consent agendas. These

SEA LEVEL RISE&COASTAL RESILIENCE
Virginia Beach faces several challenges in being "."
on the coast. The combination of accelerating
sea level rise and increased rainfall means that Virginia Beach Watersheds
flood waters need to be kept out, without
trapping rain water inside. `„
The Virginia Beach Resort Area covers several1,100ii ''°ind
watersheds, however, the majority of the resort .:
drains storm water out to Lynnhaven Inlet e
..... i
through a series of pipes, culverts, creeks, and ---
lakes.As the sea level rises, draining the Resort \ \ 40 Area through this system will take longer since x` i III
1/11,*much of the system will already be full of water Ior closed off with a flood gate.An alternative ;,drainage system is a possibility that is being •
;studied, but would rely on pumping water fromthe Resort Area out to the ocean. In either case, w�slowing the movement of water from rooftops, i
cNv a ce...ww
parking lots, and other impervious surfaces
will be critical to not overwhelming the ability ...OM•••••
23
of the storm water system to drain the Resort
Area. Storing runoff on-site or allowing it to be
absorbed into a natural system until a rain event
is over,then slowly releasing it into the storm
water system will allow the most critical public _

structures (such as roads) to be drained first. ��

AGENDA ITEM
ITEM: An Ordinance to Amend Sections 8-69, 8-70 and 8-72 of the City Code
Pertaining to the Board of Building Code Appeals
MEETING DATE: March 3, 2020
• Background: The City Council-appointed Board of Building Code Appeals was
created to hear appeals from any person aggrieved by either the local building
department's application of the Building Code or refusal to grant modification to the
provisions of the Building Code. In order to increase the effectiveness of the Board, this
ordinance amends City Code § 8-72 to require that the Board meet each January, April,
and September, as well as any other time necessary to receive training and timely hear
appeals.
This ordinance also amends City Code §§ 8-69, 8-70, and 8-72 to consolidate the
existing four divisions of the board of building code appeals into the newly created
Board and to establish membership of the Board. Membership shall consist of: a
registered design professional who is an architect; a registered design professional with
a structural engineering or architectural experience; an individual with mechanical or
plumbing engineering experience, or a mechanical or plumbing contractor with at least
ten years experience; an individual with electrical engineering experience, or an
electrical contractor with at least ten years experience; a residential property manager
having experience of at least five years; two individuals having experience of at least
five years with an occupational or professional field related to the construction industry;
and up to three alternates having experience of at least five years with an occupational
or professional field related to the construction industry.
■ Considerations: The intent of the amendments is to simplify the appointment
process by creating a single, unified Board. These amendments have been discussed
with, and are supported by, the Housing Code Administrator.
• Public Information: Public information will be provided through the normal
Council agenda process.

15
16 WHEREAS, finding citizens qualified and willing to serve on the multiple divisions
17 has been challenging and the time and talents of those who have been appointed are
18 often underutilized due to the division structure and infrequency of appeals in the
19 divisions;
20
21 WHEREAS, to better accomplish the mission of the board of building code
22 appeals, to more effectively utilize the time and talents of those appointed to same, and
23 to provide better service to the City and its citizens, the creation of a single board with
24 broad expertise would be preferable to the distinct divisions currently utilized.

AGENDA ITEM J
ITEM: ALTERNATIVE 1 (STAFF PROPOSAL): An Ordinance to Authorize the City
Manager to Execute a Sponsorship Agreement with Something in the Water,
LLC
ALTERNATIVE 2 (REQUESTED BY COUNCILMEMBER ROUSE): An
Ordinance to Transfer Funds and to Authorize the City Manager to Execute a
Sponsorship Agreement with Something in the Water, LLC
MEETING DATE: March 3, 2020
• Background: Last year, Mr. Pharrell Williams conceptualized and produced a
successful inaugural Something in the Water Festival that focused on welcoming visiting
college students, local residents, and guests from outside our region to the Virginia
Beach Oceanfront. The 2019 Something in the Water Festival was a positive, multi-
faceted festival composed of top-tier music performances, in-depth panel discussions
on innovation, sports activities, local art, health and wellness. The Festival was held
during the last weekend of April 2019, a weekend previously referred to as College
Beach weekend. The concept was briefed to the City Council in November 2018, and in
March 2019, the City Council adopted an ordinance that authorized a $250,000 financial
sponsorship along with in-kind services.
An economic impact analysis and after-action report were briefed to the City Council on
October 1, 2019. The inaugural Something in the Water Festival generated more than
$21.7 million of economic activity and resulted in more than $1.1 million of tax revenue
to the City.
• Considerations: The Something in the Water Festival continues to present a
unique opportunity to provide positive social programming for visiting and local young
adults and elevate Virginia Beach to international prominence as a cultural hub of
music, art, technology and more. In addition to economic impact, the Something in the
Water Festival has started to show priceless, long-term distinguishing impacts ranging
from cultural enrichment to social cohesion to workforce development to positive
regional branding. The attached ordinance expresses Council's support for the
Something in the Water Festival in the form of a proposed sponsorship agreement
between the City and Something in the Water, LLC. This arrangement will provide
financial, facility, public safety, and operational support of the Festival. Some of these
resources were already allocated to the last weekend of April for past College Beach
weekends.
ALTERNATIVE 1 (STAFF PROPOSAL): This sponsorship includes a financial
sponsorship of$250,000, which was included in the FY 2019-20 Operating Budget.
ALTERNATIVE 2 (REQUESTED BY COUNCILMEMBER ROUSE): This sponsorship
includes a financial sponsorship in an amount equal to the admissions taxes generated
by the Festival. Such amounts will be subject to audit after the Festival to ensure a
dollar-for-dollar match. The amount of the financial sponsorship in excess of $250,000
will be transferred from the Reserve for Contingencies in the TIP Fund.

AGENDA ITEM
ITEM: An Ordinance to Amend the City's Resort Open Air Café Franchise Regulations
MEETING DATE: March 3, 2020
• Background: In 1985, City Council authorized the City Manager to promulgate
Resort Open Air Café Franchise Regulations ("Regulations") to implement an open-air
café program in the public rights-of-way in an effort to enhance the overall dining
environment at the oceanfront. The Regulations have been amended several times since
1985.
• Considerations: The Regulations provide that improvements on public property
may not cover more than the front face of the operating business building or exceed a
total of 800 square feet. Historically, the City has permitted restaurants located on corner
lots to apply for and to receive two open air café franchise agreements; one open air café
franchise agreement for each of the two external sides of the restaurant. Each franchise
agreement authorizes the construction of a café that is up to 800 square feet in size for a
combined total café size of up to 1600 square feet. Approximately twenty percent (20%)
of the existing forty-six (46) restaurants with open air café franchise agreements have
cafés that wrap around two external sides of a restaurant.
The Planning Department, through the Strategic Growth Area Office, and the Resort
Advisory Committee ("RAC") have requested that the Regulations be amended to permit
restaurants located on corner lots that have an obstruction in the right-of-way that
prevents seventy-five percent(75%)or more of the direct front or side face of the business
from being utilized as a café to utilize up to an additional 600 square feet of café space
on the unaffected side of the open air café if supported by the RAC and approved by the
City Manager or his authorized designee. Under the proposed amendment, an open-air
café may be up 1400 square feet in size if an obstruction exists in the right-of-way that
meets the criteria set forth above.
This amendment will allow for more creative use of corner café space and will advance
the City Council's goal of being a competitive first-class resort for residents, businesses
and tourists.
• Public Information: Information will be provided through the normal agenda
process.
• Recommendations: Approval of the ordinance.

CITY OF VIRGINIA BEACH
AGENDA ITEM
ITEM: An Ordinance to authorize the acceptance of a dedication of a 1.7-acre (±)
property located at 4549 Revere Drive (GPIN: 1475-37-8501) from Salem
Woods Civic Association, Inc. for a public park
MEETING DATE: March 3, 2020
• Background: The City of Virginia Beach Parks and Recreation Department has
received a request for the City to accept a dedication of property at 4549 Revere Drive
(the "Property") for use as a City park. The Property is a recreation area for the Salem
Woods subdivision, which was dedicated to the Salem Woods Civic Association, Inc.
(the "SWCA") in 1985. Membership in the SWCA is not mandatory, and the
membership dues collected are insufficient to adequately maintain the Property. The
existing amenities have deteriorated, and SWCA doesn't have the resources needed to
keep the Property out of disrepair. Active SWCA members were asked to vote on the
future of the Property, and the majority supported dedicating the Property to the City as
a public park. They also requested that the Property be rezoned to P-1 Preservation
District.
City staff believes the Property would be an ideal public park that could offer amenities
to an underserved population. The 1.7-acre (±) site is situated along a stormwater lake
(the "Lake") and could support a creative neighborhood park design with amenities
supported by the surrounding neighborhood through a future public-input process. The
Property is visually appealing and has more than adequate street frontage, allowing for
increased accessibility to pedestrians and maintenance crews and adding a level of
safety. The Property also would provide additional maintenance access to the Lake.
City staff recommends accepting the dedication of the Property for use as a public park.
The existing amenities will be demolished. The Property will be developed as a
neighborhood park as funding becomes available for new infrastructure.
• Considerations: The SWCA wants to dedicate the Property to the City as a gift.
• Public Information: Public notice via the normal City Council agenda process.
• Alternatives: Decline the proposed dedication.
• Recommendations: Approval

AGENDA ITEM
ITEM: A Resolution to Support Limited Access Fence Modifications for VDOT's 1-264/
Lynnhaven Parkway Interchange for CIP #9-028, "Lynnhaven Parkway Corridor
Improvements"
MEETING DATE: March 3, 2020
• Background: The Lynnhaven Parkway exit from 1-264 East is the gateway to
some of the City's major corporate, industrial and retail business clusters. A capital
improvement project was approved in the FY 2017-18 Capital Budget for aesthetic and
connectivity improvements along Lynnhaven Parkway from 1-264 to Holland Road. The
project is currently at 100% design and is anticipated to be bid in July. As part of the
Lynnhaven corridor improvements, a gateway sign is proposed in City right-of-way at the
intersection of Lynnhaven Parkway and the 1-264 exit ramp near Robert Jackson Drive.
This gateway sign will create an attractive sense of arrival for the business district. In
order to accommodate the proposed sign, it is necessary to modify the VDOT limited
access fence line location. The attached exhibit illustrates the fence modification and
proposed sign.
• Considerations: A "limited access highway" is defined by VDOT as
"extinguishing the abutting property rights to access the roadway that the land adjoins."
Approval from the Virginia Commonwealth Transportation Board (CTB) is required in
order to modify this fence line. The CTB requires a resolution of support from the City
Council prior to CTB review of the modification. VDOT has concurred with the language
in the resolution of support.
• Public Information: Normal Council agenda process.
• Recommendations: Approve the attached resolution.
• Attachments: Resolution; Exhibit A (Map); Exhibit B (Sign Rendering)
Recommended Action: Approval

AGENDA ITEM
ITEM: An Ordinance to Appropriate Insurance Proceeds to CIP #2-022, "Major Bridge
Rehabilitation II"
MEETING DATE: March 3, 2020
• Background: In November 2018, a barge owned by Intracoastal Marine, Inc., hit
the Pungo Ferry Bridge fender, which damaged the northeast portion of the timber pile
fender system of Pier 29. An inspection was performed. The inspection concluded that
the fender system protected the bridge, and there was no structural damage to the bridge
itself. The fender system did require repairs, totaling $528,172.50 for inspections, design,
and construction. On February 20, 2020, the Risk Management Division of the Finance
Department received an insurance payment from the company that damaged the bridge
fender for the full amount of $528,172.50. The inspection and repair work were paid for
with available appropriations from CIP #2-022 "Major Bridge Rehabilitation II". The
Department of Public Works requests the full amount of the reimbursement be
appropriated to CIP #2-022 to reimburse the project for this unanticipated expenditure.
• Considerations: CIP #2-022 "Major Bridge Rehabilitation II" supports bridge
maintenance on the 58 bridges within the City. This funding was used to make repairs
following the collision to the fender system. Without appropriating the insurance payment,
the project will not be reimbursed for the unanticipated expenditures.

AGENDA ITEM
ITEM: An Ordinance to Transfer Funding from CIP #8-402, "Replacement for the Rudee
Inlet Dredge," to CIP #3-122, "Police Department Helicopter," and to Appropriate
$ 549,636 in Fund Balance of the DEA Seized Assets Special Revenue Fund to
CIP #3-122
MEETING DATE: March 3, 2020
• Background: The Department of Public Works Fleet Management requests
$4,078,031 from CIP #8-402, "Replacement for Rudee Inlet Dredge," be transferred to
CIP #3-122, "Police Department Helicopter." This transfer will enable Fleet Management
to purchase a replacement to the 1989 Bell 206 helicopter during the current fiscal year.
The replacement dredge and replacement helicopter projects were both partially funded
within FY 2019-20 and were originally expected to be fully funded with the adoption of
the FY 2020-21 Capital Improvement Program. Fully funding the helicopter project
within the current fiscal year will allow the city to receive discounts from the
manufacturer. The discounts provided and the negotiated price are displayed below:
Amount
Originally Quoted Helicopter Price $5,152,153
Discount- Mission Equipment ($300,000)
Discount- Pilot and Mechanic Training ($58,575)
Negotiated Helicopter Price Total $4,793,578
Of the $4,793,578 total need, the existing CIP project #3-122 "Police Department
Helicopter" has $165,911 in available funding. The remaining need will be funded
through a transfer of $4,078,031 from CIP # 8-402 "Replacement for the Rudee Inlet
Dredge" and the appropriation of$549,636 in fund balance from the Police Federal and
State Seized Assets Special Revenue Fund.
Source Amount
Existing funds from CIP #3-122 $165,911
Transfer from CIP#8-402 $4,078,031
Appropriate DEA Funds $549,636
Total $4,793,578
The $4,078,031 transferred from CIP # 8-402 "Replacement for the Rudee Inlet Dredge"
will be programmed within the City Manager's Proposed FY 2020-21 — FY 2025-26 CIP
to fully fund the project.
• Considerations: After the 1989 Bell 206 is sold, the City will have replaced both
of their original aircraft with newer, smaller, more cost-effective models. The 1989 Bell
206 is a 31-year old aircraft, and the model is no longer in production. Due to its age,
replacement parts are becoming obsolete and are increasingly more difficult and costly
to obtain.
If approved, the City can complete the purchase of the helicopter and receive the
savings offered by the manufacturer. The replacement dredge was contingent upon
funding in the FY 2020-21 Capital Budget, so there is no delay in that project by
authorizing this transfer.

DEVELOPMENT GROUP [Applicant] CITY OF VIRGINIA BEACH [Property
Owner] Conditional Use Permit (Eating and Drinking Establishment with
Drive-Through Window) for the property located at 5161 Princess Anne
Road (GPIN 1466783845). COUNCIL DISTRICT— KEMPSVILLE
MEETING DATE: March 3, 2020
■ Background:
For a number of years, the Virginia Beach Department of Economic Development
has marketed the 2.80-acre, City-owned property located at the northwest corner
of the Princess Anne Road and S. Witchduck Road intersection. Located in Historic
Kempsville, the property is zoned B-4K Historic Kempsville Area Mixed Use. The
applicant has submitted a request for redevelopment of the entire parcel with a
commercial center that includes a restaurant with a drive-through. The center can
be constructed as a matter of right in the B-4K District; however, a drive-through
for a restaurant requires a Conditional Use Permit.
The center will contain approximately 15,000 square feet of retail and 4,000 square
feet of restaurant use in three free-standing buildings oriented around an 82-space
parking lot. The drive-through is proposed in the southeast corner of the property
adjacent to the intersection. The drive-through lane will have a queuing capacity
of 11 vehicles which meets City standards. Category I landscaping will be planted
between the drive-through and the adjacent right-of-way.
The proposed architecture of the buildings includes the use of brick, horizontal
siding, divided windows, and a neutral color palate. The B-4K District requires a
maximum building setback of 20 feet from the right-of-way. The applicant has
requested a deviation to this requirement for all three buildings in order to better
accommodate the drive-through lane, provide stormwater management, and
mitigate existing underground contamination on the property.
• Considerations:
The Comprehensive Plan designates this area of the City as the Historic
Kempsville Area Suburban Focus Area (SFA). The Historic Kempsville Area
Master Plan provides guidance for development in the area and calls for a mix of
uses within a walkable development pattern that respects the historical context and
historic structures in the area. Although mixed uses that include residential would
be ideal at this location, the existing underground contamination makes residential
development difficult. The proposed redevelopment has support from the Historic
Princess Anne/Witchduck Associates 1, LLC do Robinson Development Group
Page 2 of 3
Kempsville Citizens Advisory Committee(CAC)and the site design is based in part
on meetings with the CAC. There is no known opposition to the request. Further
details pertaining to the application, as well as Staffs evaluation, are provided in
the attached Staff report.
The Planning Commission supports the application including the building setback
deviations. The Commission also recognizes the applicant's willingness to make
further modifications to the site design and building architecture to improve
pedestrian connectivity, landscape screening, and conformance with the
architectural guidelines of the Historic Kempsville Master Plan. Conditions two
and four are modified by the Planning Commission, as noted below by underlined
text, to provide more specificity regarding the maximum setbacks allowed as well
as utilization of the drive-through speakers.
• Recommendations:
The Planning Commission passed a motion to recommend approval of this request
by a vote of 8-0.
1. When the property is developed, it shall be in substantial conformance with the
submitted exhibit entitled, "ILLUSTRATIVE SITE PLAN," prepared by Kimley
Horn, dated 11/08/19. Said Plan has been exhibited to the Virginia Beach City
Council and is on file in the Department of Planning & Community
Development.
2. The maximum deviation setbacks for the proposed
buildings shall be as follows:
with4he
rested deviation,
5,300 sf building
30 feet from Princess Anne Road
30 feet from S. Witchduck Road
9,800 sf building
190 feet from Princess Anne Road
190 feet from S. Witchduck Road
170 feet from Singleton Way
3,800 sf building
35 feet from S. Witchduck Road
30 feet from Singleton Way
3. At the time of site plan review, a Landscape Plan that reflects Category I
landscape buffer between the drive-through lane and the rights-of-way, in
addition to all plant material required by the City Zoning and Site Plan
Ordinances, shall be submitted for review to the Development Services Center
and shall obtain an approval prior to the issuance of a building permit.
•
Princess Anne/Witchduck Associates 1, LLC do Robinson Development Group

4. The drive-through facility shall not utilize exterior speakers that are audible at
the from any property line adjacent to residential uses.
5. The drive-through facility shall be located on the same parcel as the structure
within which the principal use for the drive-through is located.
6. The drive-through shall not operate between the hours of 12:00 midnight—5:00
a.m.
7. The drive-through facility shall be restricted to one lane.
8. There shall be no signs for the drive-through facility on the building or site, with
the exception of directional signs not visible from the public rights-of-way. Such
signs shall not be internally illuminated.
9. An overhead canopy for the drive-through facility shall be allowed, except that
such canopy shall not project more than four (4) feet from the wall of the
building above the drive-through window and shall not exceed the width of the
drive-through window by more than one (1) foot on each side. In no case,
however, shall a drive-through facility have an overhead canopy that extends
to cover the total length of the drive-through lane.
10. The architectural design shall conform to the purpose and intent of the Historic
Kempsville Area Master Plan.

Background and Summary of Proposal
• The 2.80-acre City-owned property is located in Historic Kempsville in the northwest quadrant of the intersection of
Princess Anne Road and S.Witchduck Road. The property also has frontage on Singleton Way to the north. For a
number of years,the Virginia Beach Department of Economic Development has been marketing the site without
success. In 2014, City Council amended the B-4K Historic Kempsville Area Mixed Use District to permit drive-
throughs associated with a pharmacy in an effort to spur redevelopment in the area. Following that, an application
for a Walgreen's Drug Store with a drive-through was granted on this property; however,that proposal never came
to fruition. A amendment to the Zoning Ordinance to further expand the uses allowed by Conditional Use Permit in
the B-4K District was recently approved on January 21,2020 to include a drive-through for a restaurant use. Based
on this,the applicant submitted a request for the redevelopment of this entire parcel that includes a restaurant with
a drive-through.
• The site is currently vacant except for a parking lot which previously served commercial uses on the property which
have since been demolished.
• A commercial center is proposed for the property, containing approximately 15,000 square feet of retail and 4,000
square feet of restaurant use in three free-standing buildings oriented around a central 82-space parking lot. This
can all be constructed as a matter of right in the B-4K District.The applicant, however, proposes to install a drive-
through associated with a restaurant,which requires a Conditional Use Permit.
• The submitted illustrative site layout depicts the drive-through lane in the southeast corner of the property adjacent
to the intersection of Princess Anne Road and S.Witchduck Road. The drive-through lane will have a queuing
capacity of 11 vehicles which meets City standards for drive-through stacking.
• Vehicular access, limited to right-in/right-out turning movements, is proposed from Singleton Way and Princess
Anne Road.
• The concept plan depicts Category I landscaping which includes a row of evergreen shrubs of a species that reaches
a height of eight to ten feet at maturity, between the drive-through lane and the adjacent right-of-way. The intent is
to provide dense landscaping to visually and physically separate the cars in the drive-through from pedestrians using
the sidewalk and vehicles on the roadways. Additional plant material is proposed along the building foundation and
within the parking lot, as required. A landscape plan depicting all proposed and required plant material will be
submitted to the Development Services Center during the final site plan review. Review and approval of the
landscape plan will occur prior to the issuance of a building permit.
• The B-4K Historic Kempsville Area Mixed Use District permits a maximum building setback of 20 feet from the street.
The applicant has requested a deviation from this requirement for all three buildings proposed on the property.
According to the applicant,the building locations were agreed to in meetings held with the Historic Kempsville
Citizens Advisory Committee and are required due to the conflict of the underground stormwater management
facilities and location of underground contamination.The applicant will obtain all necessary state and federal
approvals to protect the site and adjacent sites from the underground contamination

Evaluation and Recommendation
Staff recommends approval of the Conditional Use Permit for a drive-through in conjunction with a restaurant on the
subject property. This property was originally purchased with state funds for the Princess Anne Road realignment
project. Since the completion of the project,the remaining property not needed for the right-of-way improvements has
been marketed by the Department of Economic Development. Knowing that market conditions have shifted,City
Council's recent amendment to the Zoning Ordinance to allow a drive-through for a restaurant use resulted in this
application. It is the hope that the proposed redevelopment of this site,that includes a restaurant with a drive-through,
help facilitate the redevelopment of other properties in the vicinity.
Although mixed uses that include residential would be ideal at this location,the existing underground contamination
makes residential development problematic.The applicant has agreed through the purchase process to accept full
liability associated with the existing environmental challenges of the site, and to compliance with all state and federal
requirements to remediate the contamination.
The Historic Kempsville Area Master Plan provides guidance for development within the area and calls for a mix of uses
within a walkable development pattern that appropriately respects the historical context and historic structures in the
area. The Master Plan also provides architectural guidelines for new buildings in the District. These guidelines recognize
that well-designed buildings that respect the scale and character of the area's remaining historic buildings can have a
modern architectural vernacular and still be successful projects in the District. Exterior wall materials that reflect the
District's traditional architectural heritage are encouraged and include brick and horizontal wood siding. Synthetic siding
that resembles horizontal wood siding(i.e. Hardiplank) is acceptable for new buildings. Based on the submitted
architectural concept, both brick and synthetic horizontal siding are proposed, with the heavier material (brick) below
the lighter material (wood), as recommended in the guidelines. It would appear that stucco or drivit is intended on
some wall panels to break up the building massing which is not acceptable. The color palatte appears neutral and/or
earth tone based which is consistent with the guidelines. Windows appear to be divided which is recommended,
however,window muntins must be true-divided or simulated true divided aluminum or vinyl-clad. The proposed
awnings must be made of canvas or similar fabric and have side panels.According to the applicant,the proposal is based
upon meetings with the Historic Kempsville Citizens Advisory Committee,who concurs that the drive-through for this
Princess Anne/Witchduck Associates 1, LLC
Agenda Item 4
Page 3
development would be a good idea provided that the queuing cars can be properly screened.The applicant has
indicated a willingness to make modifications to the design and will present those to the Citizen Advisory Committee in
the near future.A condition is recommended that the buildings' architectural design and materials be consistent with
the intent of the guidelines.A more detailed review of the materials and compliance with the Historic Kempsville Area
Master Plan will occur during the site plan review process.
As shown on the illlustrative site layout,Category I plant material,which includes a row of evergreen shrubs,will be
installed between the building and the right-of-way to effectively screen the drive-though. The conceptual design for
the proposed drive-through meets City standards for drive-through stacking,which requires a minimum stacking of 10
vehicles at 22 feet per vehicle,or 220 feet as measured from the pickup window. The drive-through lane will have a
queuing capacity of 11 vehicles and will measure 240 feet from the pickup window.
The B-4K Historic Kempsville Area Mixed Use District permits a maximum building setback of 20 feet from the street.The
applicant has requested a deviation from this requirement for all three buildings proposed on the property. According
to the applicant,the building locations were agreed to in meetings with the Historic Kempsville Citizens Advisory
Committee. As shown on the Illustrative Site Plan,the setback of the proposed building adjacent to the drive-through
will vary between 26.61 feet and 29.24 feet which is the minimum necessary to accommodate the drive-through and
required Category I landscaping.
As proposed, the development will satisfy access standards and vehicular circulation appears adequate. No increase in
average daily vehicular trips over what can be developed by-right is anticipated, as a drive-through associated with a
restaurant is accounted for in a typical commercial development.
Based on the above,Staff recommends approval subject to the conditions below.
Recommended Conditions
1. When the property is developed, it shall be in substantial conformance with the submitted exhibit entitled,
"ILLUSTRATIVE SITE PLAN," prepared by Kimley Horn,dated 11/08/19. Said Plan has been exhibited to the Virginia

Comprehensive Plan Recommendations
The Comprehensive Plan designates this area of the City as the Historic Kempsville Area Suburban Focus Area (SFA).
The Historic Kempsville Area Master Plan was adopted in 2006.The Plan provides guidance for development within the
area called Historic Kempsville located at the intersection of Princess Anne Road and S.Witchduck Road/Kempsville
Road.The Plan calls for a mix of uses within a walkable development pattern that appropriately respects the historical
context and historic structures of the area.An amendment to the B4-K District to add drive-through facilities for
pharmacies was adopted in 2014 to address market conditions in the area. An amendment to expand the uses allowed
by Conditional Use Permit in the B4-K District to include a drive-through for a restaurant use was approved by the City
Council on January 21, 2020.
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
resources associated with the site.

February 12,2020
RECOMMENDED FOR APPROVAL
Ms. Smith: Our next item is agenda item number four,Princess Anne/Witchduck Associates 1,
LLC.
Mr. Barnes: I gotta go.
Mr. Tajan: I'm sorry,just to know for the record Mr. Barnes is leaving the meeting.
Ms. Oliver: Thank you.
Ms. Sandloop:Item number four is an application for a conditional use permit for an eating and
drinking establishment on property located at 5161 Princess Anne Road located in
the Kempsville District. Will the applicant or the applicant's representative please
step to the podium?
Ms. Oliver: Good afternoon.
Mr. Royal: Good afternoon. For the record, I am Randy Royal with Kimley Horn Associates
representing Robinson Development on this application. Council recently
approved this drive-through as a conditional use in the B-4K zoning. This is a piece
of property that the city has owned for 10 years when that intersection was relocated
at Princess Anne and Witchduck. This was a residual piece of property that
Economic Development has been trying to find the right use,the right developer to
make something happen. They've had some failed attempts as you spoke to this
morning with Walgreens which unfortunately stopped building right after they
came in. But we believe we have the right use now. Staff spent a lot of time coming
up with guidelines and standards for where the building should go, the architecture
etc. The buildings and we got a slide of the site plan?There we go. The buildings
were to be all upfront,but we've had some environmental concerns on the site,there
was an old laundry on this site, and there is a plume. There it is. There's a plume
right in this area, and it comes down this way to the site, cannot be removed. It's
50 feet, maybe deeper, that stuff is just nasty. The way you handle that is you cap
it, we cannot put residential on this property. We cannot do water quality in the
area close to the contamination that's why the building has moved back, I can't get
the pointer,but the building can go on top of it because we can cap it. We can put
the building in with a vapor barrier, it caps the pollutant. We can put a parking lot
1
up in that upper right corner and cap the pollutant. We're not having drainage in
there other than pipes to go through. The water quality,we're going to have is going
to be in the front field where we don't have a building now,that's one of the reasons
for moving it there and my client has been working with the Citizens Advisory
Committee for a year and a half on this to come up with this layout and this
architecture, which we'll talk about that a little bit too. The architecture is very
close. We've got the chairman of the Architecture Committee for the CAC, I think
he's here and is going to speak today to you. There's a meeting tomorrow night to
finalize it, but we're very, very close. Typically you don't have things completely
done with the architecture, that's a picture there. I think they may tweak it a little
bit. Again,working with the CAC and working with the Planning Department staff.
It was mentioned this morning that the developer is quite anxious to get things done.
He has some contracts already and we can speak to that also, but the original
contracts require him to have buildings done by June. It's not going to happen at
this point,but we're pushing to get it done as quickly as we can. He's trying to keep
some of the tenants online to rent month by month where they are. Once we get
through this, then he can give them a better idea of when we're going to commit.
The tenant for this drive through, was mentioned in an open forum here,has sent a
letter of intent. They've said that they will sign a lease as soon as he gets control of
the property which has to happen and then there's a land sale involved with
Economic Development. Language on the stipulations, staff mentioned this
morning that they had changed a couple of them. We went back and forth with Mr.
Landfair and appreciate his efforts, but the language on the setbacks that was
clarified and we're fine with that and the language on the speakers not being
adjacent residential,which we don't really have here, so we're fine with that. There
were a couple others I'd like for you to consider if you can, related to no signage
for the drive through on the building or the site and limiting the canopy size. In
both cases, staff still has full control. We'll review this and decide what works and
what doesn't. I was just, I want to maintain as much flexibility as possible for the
architect, for the developer, and staff and the CAC are going to have their say as to
what they like or don't like out there. Developers have to answer any questions
specifically, if there are questions about the deal, we believe we've got a good
project, staff has recommended approval, and we hope you'll see fit to recommend
approval to city council. I'll stand by for questions.
Ms. Oliver: Any other questions, Dave?
Mr. Redmond:Tell me more about the environmental. You said it's clustered up in that upper
right hand corner, Randy, you said, let me before you do, excuse me, why does the
city acquire contaminated properties again? It's residual from the road projects. I
2
understand that but we have surveyors and presumably we test these things, we go
ahead and buy properties that are contaminated with this nasty stuff.
Mr. Tajan: Well, during the timeframe of when they were doing the Princess Anne Road
realignment, as you know, during the painful decision of how to align Princess
Anne Road, there were multiple locations chosen and how we ended up with the
one we had, I believe that one of them was actually to go right through some of this
contaminated area, but due to the inability to acquire certain properties that we
shifted and pivoted where we were putting Princess Anne Road,I believe that's why
this was acquired in that fashion, not just because we knew it was contaminated.
Mr. Redmond:Yeah,just strikes me as odd that we like to go ahead and acquire problems.
Mr. Weiner: Way back when I was probably in high school, there was actually a city building
on this property, the tax offices, they're the ones at Kempsville Shopping Center
now, I believe the city owned the property back then. If I'm not mistaken, the strip
shop if I'm not mistaken, that could be wrong, but I don't know if anybody can tell
me that information,but I believe the city owned the property back then,and owned
the shop because the city's tax office was on that property.
Mr. Redmond:I have a hard time believing we were a landlord for a drycleaner,but...
Mr. Weiner: I don't remember,but somebody told me that way back years ago.
Mr. Redmond:In any event,that was an aside,but we've got a problem that has to be resolved. So
you said, the contamination is in that upper right hand corner, which building is
sitting on top of capping the contamination?
Mr. Royal: The worst of the contamination is up here. This building, this building is sitting on
top of the contamination, this pointer is really bad. Can y'all see that?
Ms. Oliver: No? Where?
Mr. Redmond:Yeah, go for it.
Mr. Royal: That's the area where the drainage, the underground drainage will go, where its
farthest away. And then I failed to mention, but I mean, we've done a lot of work
on behalf of the City, with the DEQ and we have a plan and part of that plan, as I
said, is to cap it and well they've got stipulations on this, as on the city. And of
course,the developer will go with it as to how the property can be developed. What
has to be done to mitigate the impacts, and unfortunately,this is one of those things
when it's the laundry, that stuff goes deep, it's nasty. You can't dig it out. It just
goes forever. So you have to do things like capping it and have vapor barriers.
3
Mr. Redmond:Okay, and so this is all about a drive-through,right,that was largely for my benefit,
just to understand the nature of the property there. It's all about the drive-through.
So you can't tell me who the tenant is, I know who the tenant is. Walgreens isn't
there,which tells me that we've gone through that process with Walgreens and they
didn't have purchase contractor,they didn't have a lease, it might have had a signed
letter of intent, but that doesn't get you anything, the only thing that gets you is a
kind of promise.
Mr. Royal: And I don't know the details on that deal. I wasn't involved with it. I do know that
at about that time, and you and I both go to these shopping center conventions,
Walgreens just didn't show up. They just kind of rolled out the doors and said we're
stopping development. They weren't at their booth. They shut everything down.
It's unfortunate,but that's what happened. There's no real guarantees,I mean,again,
I'm avoiding saying the retailer's name here but it's a retailer we all know and love
and they're big and they're not going away. And that's, again, you typically have a
major anchor which is usually a big box of some type. This is not a big box, but
it's kind of a major anchor that if you get, lots of people want to be around it.
Mr. Redmond:Yeah, I understand that. And I think that's what I'm trying to do is figure out
whether or not we're enhancing someone's site plan or there's really a development
here that will be catalyzed by this because originally with Walgreens and a lot of
other sites, we are just kind of enhancing someone's site plan and if that's the case,
let's just say so, but I was looking for greater certainty than that, I'm not going to
get it. I understand that and that doesn't mean I oppose it necessarily, either, but I
think we have to start clarifying some of these instances where it looks like we're
just kind of messing around on a map instead of, you know, you have a real
development,that's my concern,you know, I wish I could have gotten more I don't
know there can be lots and lots of times these developments get done because you
got to get to 60% or 70% leased before you can get a loan, not letters of Intent.
You've got to have signed leases which have contingencies very often on the
developer actually acquiring the property. They don't do that when they sign one
lease or two leases,they do that when they get a whole lot more,which means those
earlier ones have to have contingencies in there for just that. So I think that's quite
possible to be done. So I don't want to argue with you, I mean, I think on this very
piece of property we've had concerns before, we just kind of mess around with
something that's not really there and I was just trying to be sure that there's
something here instead of just a bunch of sketches. Sketches are good but I prefer
for it to be stronger than that.
Ms. Oliver: Mr. Inman.
Mr. Inman: No, I'm sorry, I was just.
4
Mr. Redmond:And I'm not necessarily going to,this doesn't necessarily mean I'm going to oppose
it but I kind of like to really figure out what's here.
Mr. Royal: Okay.
Ms. Oliver: Mr. Wall.
Mr. Wall: Okay, I understand it's a conditional use permit for eating and drinking
establishment with a drive-through window so that's what this application is for. I
got a couple of things though. Architecture, you mentioned that you have
somebody here from the Citizens Advisory Committee. They can speak on that?
Mr. Royal: Yes, sir. Mike Anderson.
Mr. Wall: Can you bring the details, sure if that's appropnate. Yeah,he can come up.
Mr. Royal: I will standby.
Mr. Wall: Okay. All right. Specifically, so how does this?
Ms. Oliver: Hold on, one second. Could you state your name?
Mr. Anderson:Mike Anderson.
Ms. Oliver: Mike Anderson. Thank you. Go ahead, Mr. Wall.
Mr. Wall: Okay. So can you speak on how this meets or doesn't meet the intent because there
is a plan that was established and it was back in 2006,the Historic Kempsville Area
Master Plan and to kind of outline some of the architectural features that are in the
back, you know, the group of people got together and they sat down, and they felt
that these would be appropriate guidelines for architecture going in this area, and I
think, you know, all four quadrants,particular, the Northwest quadrant, there are a
couple, I've looked at it, and you can see the elevation views and the new kind of
rendering there,just trying to get your thoughts on the architecture?
Mr. Anderson:Well, I mean, you know, like you said, we've been doing it for a long time. I've
been there for about 10-11 years now. You know, working with Walgreens, same
scenario that we work with Robinson Development on this. You know,it's evolved
over the past two years or so that we've been working Robinson. There are some
changes that we would like to make, but it hasn't, we're working on that just like
they said last night. I mean earlier that we'll be talking tomorrow night to finalize
some of the changes that we've verbally discussed which will bring to it a more
colonial look like we have anticipated and what the city onginally put in their
proffers, you know, 2006.
5
Mr. Wall: Okay so how does, because one of the conditions and this isn't necessary for you
and this may be more for the city because the condition in there, I think it's the last
condition that the architecture and the site generally conform to the master plan for
the Kempsville Area Master Plan. So, we approve it now, it looks like that. That's
all they have to build to, you know, as part of our recommendation. So how does
that?
Mr. Royal: I don't think we're locking specifically into this architecture. I think, correct me if
I'm wrong Bobby, but your comment there says that it's got to adhere to the
standards, the guidelines that you've set up. We're not stamping this as approved.
This is to give you an idea of how close we are,but ultimately, you guys are going
to review and approve it, right?
Mr. Tajan: Correct. That is correct. We have not attached this rendering as one of your
conditions that they shall build this.
Mr. Wall: All right. I appreciate the blend of,you know,modern vernacular architecture with
the colonial New Georgian architecture, just that, there are specific things that it
says that they recommend not to have and that's, a parapet, a flat roof
Mr. Anderson:Well, that's where the pre-construction subcommittee oversees and works with the
developers, works on all the items that we have issues with, votes on it, and then
we bring it to the full CAC for approval and that's where we're still in that process
where Robinson has been very good about working with us and the adjacent church,
which is right beside the property, an intricate partner when we were working on
the Walgreens.
Mr. Wall: Okay. All right, I appreciate it. Thank you.
Ms. Oliver: More questions? Thank you.
Mr. Anderson:Okay, thanks.
Mr. Wall: I still have a couple of more points. I have more but not necessary for, it's more
for Mr. Royal. The sighting of the buildings, you've talked about the plume, you
know, getting back to the master plan, I see the restaurant up there. There's
Singleton Way, I believe the road on the back, and if I were looking into the plan,
you know,I would think that the setbacks I think that it says 20 feet was the original
intent.
Mr. Royal: 20 ft was the max, it was the original intent for everything to be pushed up close.
Mr. Wall: Up close nght, and it's understood that there are environmental constraints with the
plume. But still there's a row of parking, ideally would have been near the side and
6
would have had frontage on Singleton Way and there's the restaurant there with the
patio and I think that's going to look great right there. But I think there were other
opportunities. There were other opportunities, you know,but I think that the intent
was to have more of a pedestrian friendly lay out.
Mr. Royal: And that's what we're intending to do again, we had to figure out a place to put the
water quality and if we had done it with that middle building pushed up front there,
we run right in the middle of the contaminant and DEQ is saying,you can't do that.
We've got to meet our water quality concerns and this is a conceptual, I think staff
is going to be pushing us to make it more pedestrian friendly. I was proposing,you
know,a heavier landscaping,kind of hard to see with this two dimensional drawing
here, but something because I know part of the idea is you don't want to see a
parking lot, you don't want to see cars. And I've done that before with nice
landscaping getting a little higher so you don't see the cars behind there, you see a
green wall, if you will. So that would be the intent to make up for not having the
building there.
Mr. Wall: Right, at minimum, it seems like if it's supposed to be pedestrian friendly, you
know, accessible to accommodate pedestrians that you have some kind of
connectivity because you see the retail and you see the three businesses on the south
with the drive-through and there's no pedestrian connection there.
Mr. Royal: And I totally agree and I'm looking at it now and thinking there should be more
shown on there. I'm highly confident Mr. Tajan and his staff will have us do that
with the site plan but for example right there at the drive-through, there should be
a break in the landscaping so somebody can walk across through there. You put
striping,paver blocks,whatever,to connect these such as you can walk into the site
as if people were walking from Kempsville. Now, it is a busy intersection. I'm not
sure how much pedestrian traffic you're going to have crossing that intersection.
It's kind of scary.
Mr. Wall: Yeah.
Mr. Royal: But still the idea would be to make it more pedestrian friendly as we're trying to do
with all projects now.
Mr. Wall: Okay. Good thanks.
Ms. Oliver: Any more questions? Do we have any speakers or something?
Ms. Sandloop:Our only speaker was Mr. Anderson.
Ms. Oliver: Okay. All right. We'll close the hearing and open it up amongst the commissioners.
Yes, Mr. Inman.
7
Mr. Inman: This project has been worked on for quite a long time by a lot of people. It seems
that everybody's in good faith about what they're about and then we've heard good
explanations I think,there are reasons why it's configured the way it is. Not exactly
the way everybody would love to have it but being done responsibly, it seems that
there is serious interest by tenants in the property. We're here to make a land use
decision. Property has been on the market for some time without success. I don't
see any reason not to approve it. So move to approve the application.
Ms. Oliver: Anybody else?
Mr. Weiner: I will second it.
Ms. Smith: Excuse me, could you clarify that subject to the conditions that were amended in
your packet?
Mr. Weiner: Sorry, condition number two on the setback will be the building setback should
read maximum not minimum and on condition number four the drive-through
facility is not to utilize exterior speakers that they are audible from any property
line adjacent to residential uses.
Mr. Tajan: As specifically more noted in the packet. That's correct.
Mr. Weiner: Yes. Do you want me to read all the setbacks?
Mr. Tajan: Nope. As long as the motion references the amended conditions.
Mr. Weiner: Maximum not minimum. Correct, okay.
Ms. Sandloop:The vote is open. By recorded vote of 8-0, agenda item number four has been
approved with conditions as amended. Okay, and our last item of business is
agenda item number 27. Susan E. Markley, an application for conditional use
permit short term rental on property located at 629 14th Street located in the Beach
District.
