RESOLUTION
WHEREAS: In the small"village"of Virginia Beach on a cold December afternoon in 1951,attorney J.Peter Holland
III found himself at the scene of an accident.A local woman had been struck by a car near the corner of 24th Street and
Atlantic Avenue,but there was no ambulance available until an hour later.He and some friends worked to establish an
active volunteer ambulance service in Virginia Beach,and on May 1, 1952,the Princess Anne-Virginia Beach Rescue
Squad,Inc.began operations;and
WHEREAS: With the incorporation of the City of Virginia Beach and Princess Anne County in 1963,the growing
demand for emergency medical services necessitated the formation of other rescue squads operating within fire
stations.But the membership of the Virginia Beach-Princess Anne Rescue Squad elected to remain an independent
organization operated by volunteers on a 24-hour basis,with no charge for services.In 1963,it also voted to change the
name of the squad to Virginia Beach Rescue Squad,Inc.(VBVRS);and
WHEREAS: In 1972,the squad was in need of daytime volunteers,and for the first time,seven women were
recruited.That same year,the Emergency Coronary Care Program was established in Virginia Beach,and the very day
of graduating from the program,VBVRS members had a successful conversion of a patient in cardiac arrest,the first
ever performed by a volunteer squad;and
WHEREAS: Population was growing,the oceanfront was busier than ever,and demand for services became hard to
keep up with.To avoid the same fate that happened to the all-volunteer fire service,the squad launched the first-ever
volunteer recruitment campaign in March of 1988,which was a huge success;and
WHEREAS: To accommodate long-range growth,the squad needed a new station,and the City provided land on 17th
Street and an interest-free construction loan.Ground was broken on January 11, 1995,and the nine squad vehicles and
nearly 100 male and female volunteers had a home—in a state-of-the-art facility that became Station 14;and
WHEREAS: In 2006,a dedicated,skillful VBVRS team competed in the International Rescue and Emergency Care
Association's competition against teams from all over the world.VBVRS was the only team that was all-volunteer.And
VBVRS was the only team who came out on top.The following year,the Virginia Beach Rescue Squad Foundation,born
out of VBVRS,expanded its mission to include support for the entire rescue system;and
WHEREAS: Towards the end of the decade,with a strong need for EMS services in the Great Neck area,Station 8 was
built with funds from the Foundation and the community.VBVRS was committed to manning both stations 24/7 to serve
neighbors in need;and
WHEREAS: Today,Virginia Beach's population has grown to nearly a half million,with millions more visiting each
year.And still,the Virginia Beach Volunteer Rescue Squad continues to serve the City's needs 24/7.With almost 200
operational and support members,VBVRS answered more than 15,000 calls for service in 2021,never faltering even
through two years of a risky pandemic.The Virginia Beach Volunteer Rescue Squad continues to stand ready,night and
day,fair weather and foul,to answer the next cry for help.
NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED: That the Virginia Beach City Council pause in its deliberations to
recognize the Virginia Beach Volunteer Rescue Squad on its 70th Anniversary and celebrates the long relationship the
City has had with VBVRS.
Adopted by the Council of the City of Virginia Beach,Virginia the 3`I day of May 2022 and present this Resolution duly
signed by each Member of the Virginia Beach City Council with a copy spread upon the Minutes of this meeting.

CITY OF VIRGINIA BEACH
AGENDA ITEM
ITEM: An Ordinance to authorize the acquisition of property in fee simple for Elbow
Road Extended Phase II-C Project, CIP 100159 (formerly CIP #2-124) and
the acquisition of temporary and permanent easements, either by agreement
or condemnation
PUBLIC HEARING DATE: May 3, 2022
MEETING DATE: May 17, 2022
• Background: On February 18, 2020, Council adopted an Ordinance 3613A
approving the major design features and authorizing the acquisition of property for Elbow
Road Extended Phase II-B Project, CIP #2-152, either by agreement or condemnation.
Elbow Road Extended Phase II-C (the "Project") will construct the additional two lanes of
the ultimate four-lane roadway from Indian River Road to Salem Road. The Project is
one portion of three phases comprising Elbow Road Phase II (with Phases II-B and II-D).
The Project will add two lanes to the realigned roadway to a proposed intersection with
Indian River Road established by the Elbow Road — Phase II-B project. The Project's
proposed alignment includes a 1,050-linear-foot bridge spanning the North Landing River
floodplain, which will elevate the roadway an additional 12 feet above the existing
roadway's river crossing. The Project also includes curb, gutter, drainage improvements,
LED streetlights, noise barrier walls, as required, and landscaping.
This $25-million Project phase was first mentioned in the FY17/18 CIP. A fully funded
plan for the Project— including federal and state funds —was established in FY17/18 CIP
with the award of additional Regional Surface Transportation Program (RSTP)funds from
the Hampton Roads Transportation Planning Organization (HRTPO).
13,500 vehicles travel the two-lane, rural road conditions of Elbow Road between Indian
River Road and Salem Road each day. This volume is projected to more than double
over the next 20 years. This segment of Elbow Road ranked 22 out of 289 road segments
based on a 3-year (2016, 2017 & 2018) crash rate analysis.
• Considerations: The Project will require property and easements from six (6)
privately owned parcels and one City-owned parcel. Authority is requested to acquire the
necessary property and easements (temporary and permanent) by agreement or
condemnation.
• Public Information: The last Citizen's Information Meeting (CIM) on both Elbow
Road Phase II and Indian River Road Phase VII was held on June 7, 2018. A public
hearing will be held on May 3, 2022, and public notice of the item will be provided via the
normal City Council agenda process.
• Alternatives: Deny the request and risk delaying this long overdue Project and
affecting construction start dates provided to the public, HRTPO and VDOT.
•
• Recommendations: Approval.
• Attachments: Ordinance and Location Map
Recommended Action: Approval

AGENDA ITEM J
ITEM: A Resolution to Re-Adopt Procedures for the Selection, Evaluation, and Award
of Design-Build and Construction Management Contracts
MEETING DATE: May 3, 2022
• Background: On November 1, 2001, the City Council approved a resolution
adopting procedures for the design-build and construction management delivery
methods. In 2012, the City Council re-adopted design-build and construction
management delivery procedures to align the City's processes with the procedures
appliable to state agencies.
• Considerations: The attached resolution updates the City's design-build and
construction management procedures to address statutory and industry changes that
occurred after the adoption of the 2012 Design-Build Resolution. The attached resolution
is necessary to implement the progressive design-build methodology discussed at the
February 22, 2022, workshop session as a project delivery method for a portion of the
Flood Mitigation Program projects. As required by the actions of the City Council
concerning the 2021 Bond Referendum, the City Manager and Department of Public
Works will be providing regular project updates to the Flood Prevention Bond Referendum
Oversight Board, which in turn will provide updates to the City Council.
• Public Information: Public information will be provided through the normal
Council agenda process.
• Recommendation: Approve the attached resolution.
• Attachment: Resolution; Red-line Comparison of 2012 Resolution
Recommended Action: Approval
Submitting Department/Agency: Department of Public Works L27i/
City Manager: /0
1 A RESOLUTION TO RE-ADOPT PROCEDURES FOR THE
2 SELECTION, EVALUATION, AND AWARD OF DESIGN-
3 BUILD AND CONSTRUCTION MANAGEMENT CONTRACTS
4
5 WHEREAS, pursuant to Code of Virginia ("Virginia Code") §2.2-4382, a locality may
6 employ design-build or construction management as delivery methods consistent with the
7 procedures established by the Department of General Services for construction projects on
8 a fixed price or not-to-exceed price; and
9
10 WHEREAS, the City of Virginia Beach ("City") desires to replace the 2012 resolution
11 providing the procedures for the use of design-build or construction management contracts
12 when beneficial to the City.
13
14 NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED BY THE COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF
15 VIRGINIA BEACH, VIRGINIA:
16
17 1. Design-build contract procurement method shall be a two-step competitive
18 negotiation process. The following procedures shall govern the selection, evaluation and
19 award of design-build contracts:
20
21 a. Criteria for use: Design-build contracts are intended to minimize the project risk for
22 the owner and reduce the delivery schedule by overlapping the design phase and the
23 construction phase of a project.
24
25 b. Approval for use: Prior to taking any action to pursue a design-build project, the
26 requesting department or agency shall receive the approval of the Purchasing Agent to
27 use the design-build procurement delivery method.
28
29 c. Basis of award: The award of a design-build contract shall be based on either: 1) an
30 acceptable technical proposal at the lowest fixed price, or 2) a best value determination
31 by weighted scoring of the technical proposal and the financial proposal. Cost shall be a
32 critical component of the selection process.
33
34 d. Evaluation Committee: The City shall establish an Evaluation Committee
35 ("Committee") to be responsible for evaluating the qualifications of potential offerors of
36 design-build and reviewing proposals submitted for such services. This Committee shall
37 consist of a minimum of four (4) and a maximum of six (6) voting members. The
38 members of the Committee shall have expertise relevant to the project, with
39 backgrounds in such areas as project design, construction, finance, contract review, and
40 project management. The Committee shall be chaired by a licensed engineer or
41 architect. The membership of the Committee shall be determined by the City Engineer
42 or his designee.
43
44 e. Selection of Qualified Offerors (Step I) — Request for Qualifications (RFQ)
45
1
46 i.The City shall publish notice of its RFQ at least thirty (30) days prior to the date set
47 for receipt of qualifications by posting in the Purchasing Agent's office, distributing to
48 relevant trade group using the applicable SWaM database, and in a local newspaper
49 of general circulation in the City so as to provide reasonable notice to the maximum
50 number of offerors that can be reasonably anticipated to submit qualifications in
51 response to the particular request. Additionally, qualifications may be solicited
52 directly from vendors. If practicable, the notice also shall be published in
53 appropriate national trade publications.
54
55 ii.The RFQ shall provide a description of the project, the services required by the City,
56 any unique capabilities to be required of the offeror, and the criteria to be used in
57 evaluating the potential offeror's qualifications. The RFQ shall request of potential
58 offerors only such information as is appropriate for an objective evaluation of all
59 offerors pursuant to such criteria. The RFQ shall establish procedures whereby
60 comments concerning provisions in the RFQ can be received and considered prior
61 to the time set for receipt of qualifications. All offerors shall have a licensed Class
62 "A" contractor and an Architect or Engineer registered in the Commonwealth of
63 Virginia as part of the offeror's team.
64
65 iii.The Committee shall evaluate each responding offeror's qualifications submittal and
66 any other relevant information and shall determine which offerors are fully qualified
67 and suitable for the project.
68
69 iv.The RFQ evaluation shall result in a short list of three to five offerors to receive the
70 RFP. If available, the short list shall include a minimum of one DSBSD-Certified
71 Small Business that meets the minimum requirements for prequalification. An
72 offeror may be denied prequalification only as specified in Virginia Code §2.2-4317,
73 but the short list shall also be based upon the RFQ criteria.
74
75 v.The RFQ evaluation process shall evaluate an offeror's experience for a period of
76 ten prior years to determine whether the offeror has constructed, by any method of
77 project delivery, at least three projects similar in program and size.
78
79 vi. At least thirty (30) days prior to the date established for the submission of
80 proposals, the City shall advise each offeror in writing as to whether that offeror has
81 been prequalified. In the event that an offeror is denied prequalification, the written
82 notice shall state the reasons for the denial of prequalification and the factual basis
83 for such reasons. Prequalified offerors that are not selected for the short list likewise
84 shall be provided the reasons for such decision.
85
86 f. Selection of the Design-Build Contractor (Step II):
87
88 i.The City shall prepare a Request for Proposal ("REP") that includes: 1) the

AGENDA ITEM
ITEM: An ordinance approving the sale of School Board property located at 1413
Laskin Road and allowing the School Board to retain the sale proceeds

school board may sell such property and may retain all or a portion of the proceeds of
such sale upon approval of the local governing body, and after the school board has
held a public hearing on such sale and retention of proceeds. The School Board held a

the Property to The Franklin Johnson Group and/or its related company, TFJG Canopy
LLC ("TFJG Canopy") for $7 million, by Resolution adopted on April 26, 2022, subject to
City Council's approval.

the sale be allocated to capital projects. City staff is of the opinion that the City does not
have a current need for the Property and is in agreement with sale to TFJG Canopy for
the proposed multi-use development. The property will be the subject of a conditional
rezoning application, which is expected to be back before City Council in June or July
2022.
■ Public Information: The School Board held a public hearing on April 5, 2022
after advertising the hearing in The Virginian-Pilot, to take public comment on the
proposed sale of the Property to TFJG Canopy and retention of the proceeds therefrom.
The actions to be taken by City Council to approve the sale and retention of the
proceeds will be handled through the normal agenda process.
• Recommendations: Approve the sale of the Property to TFJG Canopy and
allow the School Board to retain the proceeds therefrom.
• Attachments: Disclosure, Ordinance, Location Map, School Board Resolution

subsequent title holders to the Property)will be substantially similar to the Concept Plan and reflect

and/or other Approvals without unreasonable delay. Nothing in this Agreement shall grant or be
interpreted to mean any public process or approval will be handled differently than applications

the normal course of planning and zoning approvals.

AGENDA ITEM I
ITEM: An Ordinance to Accept and Appropriate $26,918.40 in Four-for-Life Grant
Funds to the Department of Emergency Medical Services
MEETING DATE: May 3, 2022
• Background: The General Assembly established the Four-for-Life Program for
the purpose of providing financial assistance to volunteer rescue squads and municipal
Emergency Medical Services (EMS) agencies to fund EMS programs and projects. As
required by Virginia Code § 46.2-694, the Four-for-Life Program collects an additional
four dollars and twenty-five cents from each vehicle registration purchased annually.
Twenty-six percent of $4.00 of the $4.25 collected is returned to the municipality where
each vehicle was registered, for training, and necessary equipment and supplies under
the Return to Localities Program.
The annual total revenue for this program varies slightly each year depending on the
number of vehicles registered. Estimated revenue of $375,000 is included in the Virginia
Beach EMS Operating Budget.
• Considerations: The City will receive $26,918.40 above the budgeted estimate
of Four-for-Life funds. As required by applicable law, these funds will only be used to
purchase equipment or provide training to support rescue squad operations.

AGENDA ITEM J
ITEM: An Ordinance to Accept and Appropriate Additional American Rescue Plan Act
Funds for the Infant Program in the Department of Human Services
MEETING DATE: May 3, 2022
• Background: The Department of Human Services' Infant Program serves children
from birth to age three who have developmental delays, atypical behavior, and/or a
disabling condition that is likely to result in a delay. Eligible children receive a full
developmental assessment prior to beginning services. Services available to eligible
children and families include, but are not limited to, service coordination, speech therapy,
physical therapy, occupational therapy, and educational services.
The Department of Human Services has a contract with the Virginia Department of
Behavioral Health and Developmental Services (DBHDS), Early Intervention Division.
DBHDS was allocated $5,103,512 in American Rescue Plan Act (ARPA) funding and
distributed half ($2,551,756) among 40 localities in February 2022. The Department of
Human Services received $138,416 from this first allocation. DBHDS is now allocating
the second half of this funding based on the local system's December 1, 2021, non-
Medicaid child count.
• Considerations: DBHDS has allocated an additional $131,226 to the Department
of Human Services to be used by September 30, 2023. These funds will be used to
provide assessments for service planning, occupational therapy, physical therapy,
speech therapy, and vision services. These funds will also be used for one-time system
operation needs for administrative support, infrastructure costs, and professional
development.

AGENDA ITEM
ITEM: An Ordinance to Accept and Appropriate $1,914,214 from the Virginia Office of
Children's Services and to Transfer $751,115 within the Department of Human
Services for the Children's Services Act Program
MEETING DATE: May 3, 2022
• Background: In 1992, the Virginia General Assembly enacted the Children's
Services Act (the "CSA"). The mission of the CSA is to create a collaborative system of
services and funding that is child-centered, family-focused, and community-based when
addressing the strengths and needs of troubled and at-risk youth and their families.
The City's CSA program is part of the Department of Human Services, and it operates
under the guidelines of the Virginia Office of Children's Services (the "OCS"). The local
governing board for the CSA program is the Community Policy and Management Team
(the "CPMT"). The program receives an annual allocation of funding from the
Commonwealth through the OCS. A local match is required, and this amount varies based
on the category of services being provided and the volume of services needed to serve
the children within each fiscal year. In total, the budget for the City's CSA is $13.5 million
for Fiscal Year 2021-22, which was based on FY 2019-20 actual expenditures.
If costs exceed the budget, additional appropriations can be made to local CSA programs
through a supplemental request process. This arrangement ensures that all children in
need of services can be accommodated. CSA expenditures have increased by over 40%
compared to FY 2020-21 due to increased program utilization and increased rates. Based
on an analysis of program spending by CSA staff, the CPMT unanimously approved a
supplemental funding request to the OCS. The total cost of the increase is $2,665,329,
and the Commonwealth's portion is $1,914,214. The balance, $751,115, is the required
locality match.
• Considerations: The OCS has approved the City's request for supplemental
funding. The funds required for the local match will be provided within the FY 2021-22
Operating Budget of the Department of Human Services, so this request does not require
additional General Fund support.
• Public Information: Normal Council Agenda process.
• Recommendations: Adopt the attached ordinance.

2022, in the City of Virginia Beach. As required by state law, the City bears the costs of

The following is a breakdown of anticipated costs:
• $20,000 is for staff overtime;
• $225,000 is for contracted manpower and election officials to staff the polls;
• $103,177 for contractual services (custodians, printing and binding, machine
technicians, ballot design and proofing, election day support, moving of election
equipment, and ballots); and
• $12,500 for postal services.
If approved, the balance of the Reserve for Contingencies will be $494,308.

AGENDA ITEM
ITEM: A RESOLUTION TO ADOPT AND AMEND INTO THE VIRGINIA BEACH
COMPREHENSIVE PLAN 2016 THE STORMWATER IMPACTS FOR
DISCRETIONARY LAND USE APPLICATIONS
MEETING DATE: May 3, 2022 (Referred to Planning Commission on February 15, 2022,
Deferred on February 1, 2022, January 4, 2022, and December 7, 2021)
• Background:
In support of the Stormwater Bond Referendum (Referendum) on the November
ballot, City Council passed a resolution on September 7, 2021, that outlined
specific commitments to ensure swift action following approval of the referendum
question. One such commitment is the delivery to the Planning Commission and
City Council an amendment to the City's Comprehensive Plan (Comp Plan) related
to stormwater discharge associated with discretionary land use applications. The
amendment affirms City Council's intention to require all rezoning applications
regardless of the location within the city be required to demonstrate no impact or
increase in demand on the public stormwater system as outlined in the City Council
adopted resolution. As the citizens of Virginia Beach passed the Referendum on
November 2, 2021, an amendment to the Comp Plan was drafted and
subsequently considered by the Planning Commission on November 10, 2021.
On November 10, 2021, the Planning Commission, while supportive of the concept
within the Comprehensive Plan amendment, voted 11-0 to recommend denial of
the amendment as they indicated that additional input from stakeholders was
warranted. City Council then deferred consideration of the amendment at the
December 7, 2021, January 4, 2022, February 1, 2022, and February 15, 2022
City Council Hearings. The most recent deferral was accompanied with
instructions to the Planning Commission to reconsider the amendment and obtain
additional public engagement. In response to this directive, the Planning
Commission held a workshop following their March 2022 public hearing to discuss
the topic in detail. This was followed by public comment provided to the
Commission during the April 11, 2022, Planning Commission public hearing. There
were four speakers at this meeting who noted opinions regarding the cost and
timeliness of the preliminary review process; the question of appropriateness of
the proposed language within a long-range policy document; and the inquiry as to
why this extra review was imposed. The Planning Commission discussed the
amendment and noted concern that not approving it would erode public trust;
however, the motion to Deny carried with a vote of 7-2, as other Commissioners
believed that the proposal could inhibit economic development and agreed with
City of Virginia Beach —Comp Plan Amendment
Page 2 of 2
the opposition speakers that the proposed language should not be placed in the
long-range Comprehensive Plan.
• Considerations:
On September 7, 2021 City Council passed a resolution which required Staff to
bring forward a Comprehensive Plan amendment which directs Staff to
recommend denial of any application for a rezoning that will impact the current or
future stormwater system. Currently, the Comprehensive Plan recommends
applications within the Southern Rivers Watershed and in areas of known flooding
submit a preliminary stormwater study. The proposed Comp Plan amendment
would require conditional rezonings for properties throughout all of Virginia Beach
to include a preliminary stormwater study, while all other discretionary applications
such as Conditional Use Permits would be exempt.
A stormwater regulation workgroup with membership of City Council liaisons, City
Staff, professional consulting engineers, and representatives of the development
community have been discussing a variety of stormwater issues facing the city.
One such issue are the contents of a preliminary stormwater study. These
requirements are noted in an internal policy document rather than codified in City
ordinances and changes to provide a simplified submittal option is being
implemented where the analysis is currently required.
• Recommendation:
On March 9, 2022, the Planning Commission voted 7-2 to recommend Denial of
the proposed Comprehensive Plan amendment.
• Attachments:
Staff Report with Comp Plan Amendment & City Council Resolution
Minutes of Planning Commission Hearings— Nov 10, 2021 & April 13, 2022

Planning Commission Public Hearing November 10, 2021
Amendment to the City of Virginia Beach Comprehensive
Clinor Plan, 2016 to address stormwater impacts for
Virginia Beach discretionary applications
Request
A Resolution to amend the Environmental Stewardship Framework of the City of Virginia Beach Comprehensive Plan,
2016,to address stormwater impacts for discretionary applications. This amendment is to be in compliance with the
Resolution passed by City Council on September 7, 2021.
Summary of Referred Ordinances
The purpose of this amendment is to fulfill the components of the stormwater bond referendum approved by the
citizens of Virginia Beach on November 2, 2021. The amendment will require rezoning and conditional rezoning
applications to demonstrate no stormwater impact upstream or downstream of the proposed project or to current or
planned stormwater and yea level rise resiliency flood control projects included in the referendum.To show compliance
with this policy, all rezoning and conditional rezoning applications will be required to provide a preliminary stormwater
analysis similar to what is currently recommended for discretionary applications in the Southern Watershed. Staff
envisions that the preliminary stormwater engineering analysis should include plans and calculations that demonstrate
stormwater facilities have been adequately designed and sized to ensure no off-site impacts.This simplified analysis
should be combined with a potential volunteered proffer stating the site plan will conform to all applicable state and
local stormwater management regulation at the time of plan submittal and will not create and impact on upstream or
downstream properties or stormwater systems. Alternatively, if a proffer is not volunteered, a more comprehensive
stormwater analysis to include stormwater modeling will need to be completed prior to receiving favorable
recommendation from staff. By having no impact on the stormwater infrastructure,the City can continue to be resilient
to future storms and still allow for new development where appropriate.
The amendment also removes references in the Comprehensive Plan to the "Integrated Site Design" document which
was a proposal to address resiliency through required site design elements. This document was never adopted by City
Council and is not a policy that can be implemented at this time.
Recommendation
Staff recommends approval of this Resolution to amend the Comprehensive Plan as it will protect the City's investment
in stormwater infrastructure and will meet the requirements of the Resolution to support the Bond Referendum
adopted by City Council on September 7, 2021.

be taken to ensure consistency between the Comprehensive Plan and the Regional Hazard
Mitigation Plan,especially related to strategies to mitigate recurrent flooding and sea level rise.
Recommended Policies: Sea Level Rise,Recurrent Flooding,and Hazard Mitigation
• Concentrate new development at higher elevations outside special flood hazard areas.
• Use alternative construction techniques to minimize fill in the Floodplain Subject to Special
Restrictions.
• Wherever possible in the development approval process,avoid developing inside special flood
hazard areas,especially in the Southern Watershed Area,which is characterized by limited relief
and a minimal hydraulic gradient.
Agenda for Future Action Recommendations:Sea Level Rise,Recurrent Flooding,and
Hazard Mitigation
• Develop a program to educate the public on the beneficial functions and values of
floodplains.
• implement the findings and recommendations of the Sea Level Wise Response Strategy.
• Preserve and enhance beaches and dunes along the City's Atlantic Ocean and Chesapeake
Bay shorelines.
• implement the recommendations of the Regional Hazard Mitigation Plan.
LAND DEVELOPMENT AND STORMWATER MANAGEMENT
Land is a precious resource,limited in amount,highly valued and often exploited,a commodity that
is constantly being sold,developed,or redeveloped. As the City matures,its land inventory
becomes even scarcer.Management of land in its natural state demands that we employ wise
management and stewardship practices to safeguard the City's natural heritage.Similarly,
developed land should be used in a sustainable manner so that its value to present and future
generations is maintained or enhanced.On Novembers 2021,the citizens of Virginia Beach passed
a bond referendum to initiate a comprehensive financial plan to pay for the debt related to
significant City-wide stormwater flood control projects.The goal of these
projects is to provide for the long-term flood mitigation needs of the City.
Based on the resolution passed by City Council on September 7,2021.it is the intent of City Council
to require all rezoning and conditional rezoning requests have no impact on the current and
planned future stormwater infrastructure that will help protect the City from recurrent flooding
and sea level rise.Similar to the current policy for the Southern Watershed,all rezoning and
conditional rezoning applications must demonstrate by providing a preliminary stormwater
analysis no impact to the stormwater infrastructure upstream and downstream and this
information shall be provided,amongst other planning considerations,to obtain a positive
recommendation from staff.

November 20,2018
Stormwater management regulations were pas eel by the General As''embly after many years of
state agency to local government implementation and enforcement without additional resources to
4ocal governments.As a result,the City of Virginia Bc'ach adopted new stormwater management
regulations and fees,which became effective July 1,2011 Perhaps more than anything else in
recent years,these state mandated regulations have changed the way development projects are
designed and approved in Virginia Beach.In addition,since adoption of the 2009 Comprehensive
Plan,the City of Virginia Beach prepared a Cemprr lu'iisive Stormwater Almmgein.:'iit Plan that was
Southern Watershed Subject to"Special Drainage Considerations"
In addition,the Southern Watershed(see Southern Watershed map in Chapter 1,Section 1.5-Rural
Area)is subject to"special drainage considerations."Drainage in the Southern Watershed is highly
impacted by the presence of high ground water,poorly draining soils,and high water surface
elevations in downstream receiving waters.Therefore,it is recommended that the developer of any
property in the Southern Watersheds understand and evaluate these factors prior to undertaking
the project and properly account for these factors in the project design.Receiving waters in the
Southern Watersheds are subject to wind driven tidal influences.High ground water elevations and
poorly draining soils can result in increased runoff,can limit the capacity of stormwater
conveyance systems,and can counter the use of certain Best Management Practices,such as
infiltration.
All of these effects must be fully considered and evaluated in the analysis and design of drainage
systems in the Southern Watersheds.Accordingly,it is strongly recommended that the developer
has a preliminary drainage study prepared by a qualified professional engineer in advance of any
request to approve a discretionary(versus by-right)development application that involves land
disturbance in the Southern Watershed.The drainage study should fully and accurately evaluate
the effects of the foregoing factors on the planned development and on upstream and downstream
areas.The proposed drainage system for the planned development would provide positive
drainage that meets City standards and does not result in flooding within the planned development
or to upstream or downstream areas.
Recommended Policies: Land Development and Stormwater Management
• "Low Impact Development"design features should be incorporated into the City's major
buildings and parking area projects and in all private development plans.
• All waterfront development proposals in the Strategic Growth Areas(SGAs)should be
coordinated with the City's Parks and Recreation Department for potential public water
access(e.g.,canoe/kayak put in,parkland,plaza,etc..)in accordance with adopted SGA
Master Plans.

A Resolution to amend the City of Virginia Beach Comprehensive Plan, 2016 to address
City-wide stormwater impacts for discretionary land use applications.
RECOMMENDE FOR DENIAL— HEARD
Madam Clerk:
Thank you, Mr. Chairman. Our first item today is agenda item number one, City of Virginia
Beach, a Resolution to amend the City of Virginia Beach Comprehensive Plan, 2016 to address
citywide storm water impacts for discretionary land use applications.
Chairman Wall:
Okay. Thank you. Mr. Tajan.
Robert J. Tajan:
Thank you, Mr. Chair.
Chairman Wall:
Can you state your name for the record?
Robert J. Tajan:
Robert Tajan, Planning Director of the City of Virginia Beach. As we have here, we have the
Resolution to amend a chapter of the Virginia Beach Comprehensive Plan to address the
Resolution by City Council. On September 7th, 2021, City Council passed the Resolution and
support of the bond referendum, which had a number of things and one of them included a
requirement for staff to bring forward an amendment to the City's Comprehensive Plan, which
would require all discretionary applications, rezonings to provide essentially a preliminary storm
water analysis showing that they would have no impact on the city's storm water system as they
go through the process.
Robert J. Tajan:
The proposal would only impact those discretionary applications, while of course those that are
by right developments or even Conditional Use Permits would still have to meet to the City's
stormwaters to standards, which are in the Design Standards Manual. On February 15th, the
City Council remanded this back to the Planning Commission to obtain additional public
comment. As you know, you've already voted on this item. And we did hold at your last public
1
hearing a public comment session afterwards on this amendment. I stand by to answer any
questions regarding this.
Jack Wall:
Are there any questions for Mr. Tajan? David.
Commissioner Weiner:
Yes. Okay. So I know I've asked this and you know I've talked about this, but for the record,
just wanted you to say this. What we have in a Comprehensive Plan now is for the Southern
Watershed.
Robert J. Tajan:
That is correct. Yes, sir.
Commissioner Weiner:
What we're putting in there is for the rest of the City. Can you explain the difference between
what's in there now and the difference what we're going to put in there to go in there for the rest
of the city?
Robert J. Tajan:
Correct. So the Comprehensive Plan currently has language that says that the Southern
Watershed is subject to special drainage considerations. So what has been required is what's
known as a preliminary storm water analysis, which essentially right sizes the development,
knowing that the site that's being proposed when it goes to a discretionary application in the
Southern watershed can actually fit on the site and also still fit the storm water management. It
is different than what is required of the Council Resolution. What's shown for the preliminary
storm water analysis for the Southern Watershed that we currently do now just shows that it has
to comply with the City's requirements.
Robert J. Tajan:
The key difference is that the proposed language states that you cannot have any impact
upstream or downstream. Essentially, you cannot raise any water levels, even if it doesn't cause
flooding. The current language in the Southern Watershed says that you cannot create flooding
or exacerbate existing flooding. So there could be conditions where, in the Southern Watershed,
that there is capacity and you could add water to it that would not cause the system to flood and
that would be permissible. This new language in the comp plan would state that you cannot add
water into the system. You would have to contain it on site.
Chairman Wall:
Okay. Yes, Mr. Frankenfield.
2
Commissioner Frankenfield:
Okay. So if this is not approved, does it really have any impact on site plan project approval? In
other words, I'm asking, are those requirements in place in the Public Works Guidelines,
regardless of whether this is included in the Comprehensive Plan?
Robert J. Tajan:
Yeah. So there are current regulations in the Public Works Design Standards manual that does
not allow you to create flooding or exacerbate existing flooding. This, per the Resolution that's
being proposed in this language, does make it more stringent though for discretionary
applications. So it is saying that they cannot utilize any of the capacity in the system. As I said
before, if there is capacity in the system, if you go through the discretionary process, you cannot
add water to the system, based on this language that it is. And I'm having...
Chairman Wall:
I think, from what I'm understanding-
Commissioner Frankenfield:
He's going to interpret
Chairman Wall:
No, go ahead. You want to do it? Go ahead.
Commissioner Frankenfield:
No, go ahead.
Chairman Wall:
From what I'm understanding what he asked, if this isn't passed, is it going to change anything
in this-
Robert J. Tajan:
No. This being passed does not change what our current design regulations are, if that's the
question. It will not change the current standards that are in place.
Chairman Wall:
Anyone else? Okay, thank you. Madam Clerk, are there any speakers on this item?
Madam Clerk:
Yes, sir. We have four speakers signed up today. Brad Martin followed by Paul Wallace.
3
Brad Martin:
Barry, I think you need to turn your mic on when you're talking. Learn that. You'll get it by your
sixth meeting or so.
Commissioner Frankenfield:
I just won't talk anymore.
Chairman Wall:
Please state your name for the record.
Brad Martin:
Good afternoon, Mr. Chair and Commission members. I am Brad Martin and I've been a civil
engineer here in Tidewater for 29 years. Let me first say that the development community
generally supports reasonable and measurable storm water analysis requirements. Even if they
are more burdensome, 1.5 feet of sea level rise and 20% heavier rainfalls are proper protections
that we're incorporating into our designs.
Brad Martin:
That said, these proposed changes to the Comprehensive Plan do not match the stormwater
design standards adopted by the City Council in February and March of this year. Even beyond
the change from 0.00 to 0.04, the verbiage of no-impact is incongruous with the allowances in
the regulations, like Mr. Tajan said, if the local area does not experience current flooding, the
project can increase the tailwater elevation in the pipes, as long as new flooding is not caused.
A design result, specifically allowed in the regulations for almost two years, would be eliminated
by this no-impact clause. I think it's also important to understand what is intended by no-impact
as well; the dynamics and the results of this modeling software can be analyzed, and I expect in
every single case, they will show that there has been some measurable impact on the public
stormwater, maybe higher over here, but lower over there, or heavier flow rate earlier in the
storm, which leads to a lower runoff volume later, there's always an impact, even if it's positive.
Brad Martin:
More importantly than the precision of our design analysis, though, is the fact that we now have
to consider how an attorney or a judge would interpret these proposed changes to the
Comprehensive Plan; I don't have to tell you that we've entered into a litigious era, with regard
to these processes. Recent projects have made their way through the Planning Staff, the
Planning Commission, and then the City Council approval, and subsequently, the disaffected
stakeholder neighbors have filed suit to stop the projects. In cases like those, with this no-
impact verbiage you're considering today, essentially tie the hands of the determining authority
and disqualify a future project, even based on the most inconsequential impact with the overall
4
analysis being substantially positive. We're not talking about making things more difficult on the
consultants or more risky, costly, and burdensome to the developers.
Brad Martin:
Think about the chilling effect this would have on the potential for future projects in our city when
prospective developers would bypass Virginia Beach entirely because it's not worth the risk to
begin the process for a development project. That could completely unravel because of a
judge's interpretation of no-impact; the solutions for our stormwater and flooding problems can
be found in the referendum the voters approved last November and a diligent maintenance and
repair program, which should be the final word. Thank you, I appreciate your time and
appreciate your service.
Chairman Wall:
Thank you. Thank you. Are there any questions?
Commissioner Weiner:
Mr. Martin, a question for you, and you didn't mention this, but the verbiage in the
Comprehensive Plan, what about the proffer? The proffer that's being offered to people like you
to say, "Okay, we're going to put a proffer there that says we'll deal with it. We'll get down the
road." How do you feel about that?
Brad Martin:
I'm concerned about that because why do you have to proffer that you're going to follow the
rules anyway. To me, I didn't understand that when it came out. I still can't quite understand how
that lessens this regulation. There is still the challenge of this no-impact verbiage in the
Comprehensive Plan. If Amazon decides to build a $2 billion facility here, but it's going to raise
the flood waters by an inch, is that development worth the cost, worth the bite at the apple at
that? You have to consider that. I still don't understand how the proffer, saying that we're going
to follow the rules, is going to help when this Comprehensive Plan burdens more than the rules
do.
Chairman Wall:
Right. Okay. Thank you.
Brad Martin:
Thank you very much for your service.
Chairman Wall:
Anyone else? Okay. Anyone else? All right, thank you very much. All right.

Madam Clerk:
Paul Wallace followed by Eddie Bourdon.
Paul Wallace:
Good afternoon. I'm Paul Wallace. I'm 2022 President of the Coastal Virginia Building Industry
Association. I'm also President of Wallace Brothers Homes, with offices here in Virginia Beach
at 2525 Oconee Avenue. CVBIA advocates for a fair and balanced regulatory environment so
that our members can create quality, affordable homes and apartment homes in Virginia Beach
and throughout Hampton Roads. Our CEO, Claudia Cotton, spoke at your work session last
month. Unfortunately, she had a family emergency and couldn't be here today, but we wanted to
repeat our remarks for the record today.
Paul Wallace:
You already know the Comprehensive Plan is a policy document that serves as a guide for land
use decisions, it does not apply to administrative acts such as engineered site plan review or
where stormwater is addressed. Rezoning decisions, to our policy decisions regarding
appropriate land use for property engineering for development, happen after the policy
decisions have been made. At your work session last month, we raised a few questions, and
we'd be interested in hearing any feedback you may have received from the staff. They were,
"Do we know the capacity of all stormwater system improvements that the bond referendum
projects will create?", "Do we know if that capacity will only address current land uses?", "Do we
know if the built-out system capacity will address future development under existing zoning?",
"Do we know if the built-out system capacity will address future development under the
recommended land use in the Comp Plan?"
Paul Wallace:
If you look at stormwater as a public system or facility, such as road improvements, then
rezoning and conditional rezoning requests evaluate impacts to the system. In a traffic impact
study, if a rezoning does not add more or even reduces traffic impacts, then improvements are
not required, shouldn't this work in a similar way? If a proposed rezoning, or conditional
rezoning, does not increase; what would be added to the system under existing zoning
conditions? There, effectively, is no impact, and we urge you to recommend against the
resolution.
Chairman Wall:
Okay. Thank you. Are there any questions for Mr. Wallace?
Commissioner Weiner:
Yeah, I have a question. I want to get this right, and we need to get this right the first time. I like
your questions. The one that I like the most is the capacity of the stormwater from the
6
referendum projects. I don't think that can be evaluated yet, could it? There's no way that could
be evaluated, but in the future, if your questions were answered, would you have a problem with
this going into the Comprehensive Plan?
Paul Wallace:
I think the issue for us, still, as explained to me, is that we are required to do full stormwater
engineering and analysis at the rezone application, not knowing whether we're going to receive
the rezoning; it's incredibly expensive, complicated, and time-consuming, and all those things
will have to be done, after the rezoning was approved anyway, prior to the plan being
completely approved; specifically, what I'm here in opposition to is having this as part of a
rezoning application, rather than the overall engineering for any project.
Commissioner Weiner:
Okay. Thank you.
Chairman Wall:
Thank you.
Madam Clerk:
Eddie Bourdon followed by Chris Wood.
Eddie Bourdon:
Chairman Wall, members of the Commission, for the record, Eddie Bourdon, Virginia Beach
attorney, and I'm speaking for myself. First of all, certainly, my comments aren't intended in any
way to impugn the motives behind this Resolution and anything that we're discussing today.
Stormwater and resiliency is a significant issue for our great city, and it certainly deserves all the
focus it's getting and will continue to get, and should get. This amendment to the Comp Plan,
however, in my view, isn't an appropriate provision to be placed at this time in a long-term,
30,000-foot in the air aspirational view of our city's land-use future, which is precisely the
purpose of our Comprehensive Land Use Plan. The City Council can pass ordinances and
adopt policies, and they can instruct staff to put those staff through the city manager and put
those policies in place that have to be followed.
Eddie Burdon:
This may be, unfortunately, that, because it may change, ever so slightly, what the policy is or
the ordinances, which are all discussed. It doesn't belong in the city's long-term Comprehensive
Land Use planning document, at least not at this time. When our great city encountered a major
obstacle with the BRAC base closure process a couple of decades ago, great leadership within
our city and our region stepped up and patiently, collaboratively, and I'll repeat, deliberatively,
and in hindsight extremely successfully, analyzed, worked through, and evaluated the major
7
problems bore down into the weeds that were presented by this BRAC MoU closing Oceana
process, over, not only many months, but years. In that process, we as a City didn't act
precipitously by amending our Comprehensive Land Use Plan at the onset or even in the middle
of that process; we waited until we had figured out how we were going to deal with it. And we
amended our Zoning Ordinance, and then, whatever was added to the Comp Plan, to reflect
what our Zoning Ordinance had done.
Eddie Burdon:
Nothing, absolutely nothing, was done in haste. Our City has thousands of developed
properties, and especially at the Northern half of the city, worth billions and billions of dollars in
areas throughout the city where the public stormwater infrastructure and management
infrastructure is at varying capacities, varying quality, developed over decades and decades
during different times of policies and interpretations. Based upon the recently adopted
assumptions, heavier rainfall, and one and a half feet of sea level rise being two of many.
Chairman Wall:
Thank you, Mr. Bourdon, your time is up.
Commissioner Weiner:
Hold on, Mr. Bourdon.
Chairman Wall:
Mr. Bourdon, hang on one second. Are there any questions?
Eddie Burdon:
Thank you. Yeah, I'd like to answer the proffer question.
Commissioner Weiner:
I have a question. Something caught my attention when you said that it shouldn't go into the
Comprehensive Plan at this time. Now, we're going through a Comprehensive Plan review this
year, is there a time that this should go, or do you think this might go, with proper wording, that
this should go into the Comprehensive Plan?
Eddie Burdon:
Again, we have this policy that everyone's adapting to; the development community has been
extremely patient, understanding that the city staff didn't understand these models any more
than the consultants and the outside understood these models. And developers have spent tens
and tens of thousands of dollars, Mr. Berlin was here, and they ran, he told me, the model about
a dozen times on that property of prosperity in General Booth Boulevard, six figures. Everyone's
been trying to be patient and work through the process. And this particular aspect has been
8
something that doesn't fit in that collaborative, deliberative process because these models aren't
perfect. No one can expect perfect; we don't expect perfect of the consultant community, nor of
the city staff, everybody's doing the best they can to put the focus on this problem and work
through the modeling because there are problems with it.
Eddie Burdon:
And again, I'm not impugning anybody's motives. We cherry-pick and put this in a Comp Plan
when we don't have it all figured out by a long shot. We don't have a comprehensive process
moving forward when we should be trying to bring people together because of the
redevelopment, and that's what 90 plus percent of the Northern half of the city, which this
applies to, is because it's 90 percent plus developed. That's our opportunity to not have the
public component pay to make it better, the development and redevelopment, redevelopment
being the word I should have used, that redevelopment is an opportunity to make the system
work better as well. And we don't talk about conditional use permits under the Shore Drive
overlay, which is most of what you get on Shore Drive, and that's Chesapeake Beach, Ocean
Park, where we get the biggest problem. Because of a foot-and-a-half of sea-level rise as
everything goes into the river right there at the mouth.
Eddie Burdon:
I think, truly, everybody's trying to pull the thing in the right direction, but I think this is cherry-
picking, and as Mr. Martin said, I think it has the potential, on more than one level, to be a
negative and not a positive. And that's why I'm here; I'm not suggesting that all this emphasis
isn't necessary. It is necessary. But I think sticking this in the Comprehensive Plan may have
unanticipated consequences, and I'm not sure what we think we're accomplishing by putting it in
there. And that's my view of it. As we did in BRAC, we have everything that the region, the
Navy, everybody was in agreement on, but it took a lot of time, and then we implemented it by
ordinance. And then, if it's put in the Comprehensive Plan referencing the ordinance, that makes
sense. I'm not saying that mentioning it in the Comprehensive Plan is a problem, but this
language, I think, is a problem, certainly at this time.
Commissioner Weiner:
Right. Okay.
Eddie Burdon:
Can I answer your proffer question?
Commissioner Weiner:
Sure. I'd love to hear your opinion.
Eddie Burdon:
9
I don't have the same opinion that Mr. Martin does. I believe that the ability to proffer that and to
have the applicant that's going to develop the property or redevelop, and redevelop is what this
is about, having them put on the record that they understand going in so they don't have to
spend a $100,000 dollars before they get zoning. That they're going to have to spend it, once
they have zoning, that's not going to change what's required of them. I don't find that to be
problematic.
Commissioner Weiner:
I'm going to go in another direction. What if you get to the end and find out it doesn't work?
Eddie Burdon:
That's the risk that the applicant takes.
Commissioner Weiner:
Okay. Okay.
Eddie Burdon:
But to tell something Mr. Martin talked about, and I don't disagree with him in terms of it has the
potential, this I think, does. And again, not by itself but with other things thrown into it to keep
people from wanting to come from outside of developing our area, maybe for local developers,
maybe it protects it, I don't think so. I think it's going to cause problems for everybody.
Eddie Burdon:
Potentially, again, potentially, and this is small stuff in that regard, but right now, what you've
had to do in this Southern end of the city is you had to be able to prove that you could do it, not
come close. And that's why Mr. Berlin had to do it 12 times at six figures, and others had to do
the same thing. You shouldn't have to spend that much money to get a chance to see if you can
get it rezoned, but if you say you understand it, and you put it in writing, then you take that risk,
and you have your eyes wide open. I think the city's protected in that regard, I don't find that to
be problematic, and I think that's an important question that you asked.
Commissioner Weiner:
I don't think it's problematic either. I've talked to the people that I've talked to that don't want to
take that chance.
Eddie Burdon:
Right. But then, they need to go somewhere else.
Commissioner Weiner:
10
Sure. I agree.
Eddie Burdon:
Right, because it's better to do it after you know you have the entitlement, in which case you
can make your development smaller if you need to meet the requirements, et cetera. But you're
not exposing the city, at that point, by having a development approved for X number of square
feet, and you wind up being X minus 40% square feet to make the policy, to make the
stormwater work.
Commissioner Weiner:
Okay. Thank you.
Eddie Burdon:
Thank you.
Chairman Wall:
Thank you, Mr. Alcaraz, did you have something?
Vice Chair Alcaraz:
I think he answered it because I was going to ask you, Mr. Bourdon, I think in the same realm.
wanted to ask the engineering, Mr. Martin, but the concern of the potential prospects, if you
were to proffer that, being that you're on both sides as an attorney, a land-use attorney, do you
see the risk with one side and not the other, or vice versa, with this proffer? Is the deal going to
happen or not happen because of the no-impact proffer? Do you see?
Eddie Burdon:
I do but does the proffer say no-impact?
Robert J. Tajan:
I think we're blending a couple of things together.
Eddie Burdon:
Yes. Thank you.
Robert J. Tajan:
If you were talking only Southern watershed, it would mean that you understand that you would
meet all the criteria.
11
Eddie Burdon:
Right.
Robert J. Tajan:
I think Mr. Bourdon has made clear that he doesn't believe that the one that would apply to the
Northern part of the city would be appropriate. For the Southern watershed, it would say that
they understand that they are required to meet, and they will meet the city stormwater
requirements.
Eddie Burdon:
Yeah. I think that's where we've been doing for the proffers of the Southern part because this
hadn't existed in the Northern part.
Robert J. Tajan:
Yes, sir.
Commissioner Weiner:
That's right. It is a proffer, though, in the Northern part, right? We do have a proffer?
Robert J. Tajan:
So this doesn't exist yet in the Northern part of the city.
Eddie Burdon:
Right.
Commissioner Weiner:
The proffer doesn't exist yet?
Robert J. Tajan:
The need,
Eddie Burdon:
No-impact.
Robert J. Tajan:
For proffer does not exist yet.
12
Commissioner Weiner:
Okay.
Robert J. Tajan:
I think we're getting blended together with a policy decision on what's required to get through
the application process. I think we probably should stick around whether the policy.
Commissioner Weiner:
In the confidence part.
Robert J. Tajan:
Is an important part.
Eddie Burdon:
Well, as Bobby, as Mr. Tajan said, in the Southern part of the city, it's been fine, but again, we
don't have this no-impact. If no-impact isn't somehow better defined, and the real problem with
this is that it's going to get in the way of redevelopment; that's my biggest point because in the
Northern half of the city development is going to be redevelopment. It's not going to be
Greenfield development. And it doesn't deal with all of the existing by-rights that people already
have and can add on, et cetera. To me, it's too cherry-picked, and we need every piece of
property and every property in order to help solve this problem, not just the money at it through
infrastructure, which we have to do that too. Thank you.
Commissioner Weiner:
I'm confused for a second explain this to me. In the stakeholder meetings that I was in, we were
talking about the proffer. And the proffer that we were talking about wasn't the Southern
watershed. It was the city, the other part, so the proffer is not in place yet for the Northern part
of the city, only the Southern watershed?
Robert J. Tajan:
What we discussed in the stakeholder meeting was a way to simplify the preliminary stormwater
analysis review, currently, right now, the preliminary stormwater analysis is only required for
discretionary actions in the Southern watershed of the city.
Commissioner Weiner:
Right.
13
Robert J. Tajan:
Which is where it's applying right now.
Commissioner Weiner:
Mm-hmm (affirmative).
Robert J. Tajan:
That's a policy decision that staff has moved forward with to allow for the developer to
determine whether they want to do the full analysis or provide the simplified analysis; by
providing either allowing staff to impose a condition or provide a proffer stating that they'll meet
the requirements.
Commissioner Weiner:
In Southern watershed?
Robert J. Tajan:
In the Southern watershed.
Commissioner Weiner:
Okay.
Robert J. Tajan:
There's no reason to have it in the Northern part of the city because there is no policy for the
Northern part of the city.
Commissioner Weiner:
But if this goes in as a policy in the Comprehensive Plan, then it will be?
Robert J. Tajan:
Correct. But I think you should separate that portion from the policy discussion.
Commissioner Weiner:
I understand that. That's not a problem, that's what I was under the impression of, that once this
does go into the Comprehensive Plan, the proffer will be in there also.
14
Robert J. Tajan:
It'll be an option for the developer to provide that.
Commissioner Weiner:
So it will be in there?
Robert J. Tajan:
Yes.
Commissioner Weiner:
Okay. I understand that. Okay, I'm so sorry. I'm good, I'm not confused.
Chairman Wall:
Okay.
Commissioner Frankenfield:
Cherry-picking. I can't pick the proffer alone and not the rest of the amendment, right? In fact,
the proffer's not even in here.
Robert J. Tajan:
Correct. What the Planning Commission is considering is the change to the Comprehensive
Plan, stating what is required for discretionary applications in the rest of the city.
Chairman Wall:
Okay. Madam Clerk.
Madam Clerk:
We have one final speaker. Chris Wood.
Chris Wood:
Good afternoon.
Chairman Wall:
Mr. Wood, you've got three minutes.
Chris Wood:
15
Thank you.
Chairman Wall:
Please state your name for the record.
Chris Wood:
Sure. My name is Chris Wood. I work for McClesky Associates, a local real estate management
company. I wanted to say I appreciate the opportunity. I oppose the proposed change in the
city's Comp Plan. The Comp Plan stated today is meant to be a guide for the future
development, aspirational development, of our city. And it's not meant to be a technical bulletin.
The Comp Plan doesn't specify setbacks, the number of parking spots, or what type of plants
need to be planted, all of that is handled expertly and professionally by our staff. And they do a
great job.
Chris Wood:
I would suggest that, like those other things, we let the staff do their job. There is simply no
need for this proposed change, as Mr. Bourdon and Mr. Martin said. No projects are going to be
approved without meeting Virginia Beach's stringent stormwater requirements, so nothing's
going to change; this change will simply make it more difficult to do business in Virginia Beach.
And I think we all know that's something that we're all trying to work on, to continue to get
people to reinvest and come to Virginia Beach. As Mr. Martin said, there will always be some
impact, no matter what the project is, in redevelopment or development; it's going to always
have some impact. To say no-impact is not practical. I would simply ask that you guys vote
against this proposal.
Chairman Wall:
Okay. All right. Thank you.
Chris Wood:
Thank you.
Chairman Wall:
Hang on one second. Are there any questions for Mr. Wood?
Chairman Wall:
Okay. Thank you.
Chris Wood:
Thank you.
16
Madam Clerk:
No more speakers.
Chairman Wall:
All right. Mr. Tajan, do you have anything to rebuttal?
Robert J. Tajan:
No, I don't believe that's appropriate for this discussion.
Chairman Wall:
Okay.
Robert J. Tajan:
I believe the deliberation with the Planning Commission is the appropriate next step.
Chairman Wall:
All right. Thank you. Okay. With that, I'll close it for comment and open it up for a discussion
among the planning commissioners, would anybody like to start?
Commissioner Weiner:
I will. I think y'all know where I'm going with this. I'm not going to support this for a number of
different reasons.
Commissioner Weiner:
If this goes into the Comprehensive Plan, there's not going to be any change to what's
happening now; staff does their job. They're going to do their job. They're doing great at it.
Luckily, I was part of the stakeholders, and I got to listen to quite a few people talk on this.
Again, we didn't get into the Comprehensive Plan, but listening to the procedural of the
stormwater and how they're going about it, it was very interesting.
Commissioner Weiner:
And they had everything great to say about staff; they thought staff is doing a good job, and they
are doing a good job, they have a hard job. And our city has more requirements than probably
any other city around. And we're very stringent on that. I don't believe the technical document
needs to be a planning document. There's no reason for that. I've got to say, I talked to 10
different groups on the referendum and explained to them why we need to pass this
referendum. And not one time did I talk about putting this in the Comprehensive Plan because
I'll tell you the truth, I didn't know about it. I didn't know this was going to go into the
17
Comprehensive Plan. And I have a funny feeling that 73 percent of the citizens of Virginia
Beach who voted for this, probably five percent, knew it was going into the Comprehensive
Plan. So I have no problem. I'm not going to support this.
Chairman Wall:
Anyone else?
Commissioner Frankenfield:
Oh, what the heck. I pretty much agree with Mr. Weiner. I think it's a detailed regulatory
requirement masquerading in a policy document. I think it's redundant. It's unnecessary, and it
sends the wrong message to the people trying to do development in Virginia Beach. And the
reality is staff will not approve the project if it doesn't meet the requirements, period. And the
perception is that not, there is a thought that I hear from people that, oh, well, the right people
will get it approved, blah, blah, blah. The reality is that if you don't meet the requirements, you
don't get approved. Your only choice may be to reduce the size of your project. So that's your
choice. And so, I guarantee the Planning Director has never approved more units than were
approved by City Council. Anyway, so I do not support this amendment also.
Chairman Wall:
Okay. Mr. Bradley?
Commissioner Bradley:
Well, I think I'm going to go in a different direction. The concern I have is when Council adopted
the Ordinance, and it was unanimously adopted in September, this is the language that was
used, "City Council urges the residents to carefully consider the issue of flood mitigation and
plan to vote in November to assist the residents' deliberations. The City Council makes the
following commitments with the exception of number four," which is another issue, "will be
delivered within three weeks." And I know that didn't happen upon approval. I feel this is a public
trust issue. In the way the referendum was set up, the Council is the elected officials of our City,
they felt that this was an important commitment to make ahead of the referendum. And I know
when it hit us in November, it was new. I didn't understand it at the time. I think we needed more
information. Council sent it back to us to get public input, we've had six speakers, I think,
counting the two last week or last month. I'm going to support the resolution in front of us.
Chairman Wall:
Anyone else? Thank you.
Commissioner Oliver:
I'll go. I know when the Comp Plan came around a few years ago, most of us here, were
involved in it. The Comprehensive Plan is a guideline. It's a policy document book that outlines
18
how we would like to see the city grow in different areas. And it doesn't address specifics and or
requirements for development or redevelopment. That's left to our qualified departments and
our city staff in order for them to make those judgments.
Commissioner Oliver:
This doesn't have any place in our Comprehensive Plan whatsoever, nor do we address
anything like this in our Comprehensive Plan, and to put it in there is a wrong move, and I'm not
going to support it. I'm not quite sure why it's in front of us to do this. I think that, as Mr.
Bourdon, Mr. Martin, and Mr. Wood all addressed, the majority of the rest of our city is
redevelopment. We don't have any green land left, and each of those pieces of property, on
their own basis, should be addressed for stormwater, but that's a whole nother conversation,
this is for the Comprehensive Plan, and this, at this point, does not belong in this particular
document.
Chairman Wall:
Okay. Thanks. Anyone else?
Holly Cuellar:
Yeah. I wanted to comment, as well, that given that we are going through the process of a
comprehensive review, we are going through the process of a comprehensive review that we do
have this responsibility that it would be to our advantage, to hear from more stakeholders and to
see where we want to be with Vision 2040, rather than Comprehensive Plan 2016. And by no
means, I now will concur with my colleagues. Do we want to create a more arduous or an over
regulatory process that's going to inhibit the growth of our city?
Chairman Wall:
Okay, thank you. All right.
Donald H. Horsley:
I'm not doing much talking today, a little hoarse, but I've been involved in the revision of several
comp plans over my 10 year own planning commission. And I don't think we've ever put them in
with specifics, like in this, in the Comp Plan, as Dee said, the Comp Plan is more of a guideline
for us to go by. And then, they reference ordinances that we have in the comp plan for
development to go by. And I just don't think it's the place for put this type of a resolution together
and put it in the comp plan. Thank you.
Chairman Wall:
Okay. All right.
19
Commissioner Frankenfield:
Can I ask the city attorney something? May I?
Chairman Wall:
Sure you can.
Commissioner Frankenfield:
So, the ordinance commits that the City Council will put an amendment in the City's
Comprehensive Plan. You're not recommending denial, but it does not have the same
language, no impact that is in the actual amendment. So it seems like the amendment is
perhaps a little more strict than what was promised by City Council. Yes? Is that a yes?
Kay Wilson:
No, it is not the same language. No.
Commissioner Frankenfield:
Right.
Kay Wilson:
Because some of the language that was there was not language that should have been put in
the comp plan.
Commissioner Frankenfield:
Well, I agree with that.
Kay Wilson:
And so, we have interpreted the language and Mr. Tajan may wish to speak to that.
Robert J. Tajan:
Yes. So having spoken with the council liaisons at the Friday work group meetings, the
language here that Mr. Frankenfield's discussing is where it talks about any project or
development that generates a net increase in water discharge demand in any watershed or in
any drainage system in watershed over the capacity of net margin to meet the model discharge
baseline of the drainage system at build out. So it was a little confusing. So we tried to distill it
down to the language that we had. We did show it to the two council liaisons that were part of
that group and they agreed that the language from that meant what we wrote in this proposal.
Chairman Wall:
20
Okay. Thank you. My thoughts are that I think the motives are correct and I think that it certainly
brings attention to storm water management and flood risk management. It was pushed down
back to us, we made a decision previously, and it's been pushed back to us to evaluate and
receive public input. And I think the input that we received was generally negative concerning
today, and then the workshop or the public hearing that we had previously. So, I think there are
risks to areas that we would like to redevelop, risks that they're not redeveloped. And so, for
those reasons, I'm not going to support it either. So Madam Clerk. Oh, no. Do we have a
motion?
Mr. Weiner:
Chairman, I'll make a motion to deny the application.
Chairman Wall:
Okay. All right, we have a motion by Mr. Weiner. Do we have second?
Mr. Horsley:
I'll second it.
Chairman Wall:
Okay. We have a second by I heard Mr. Horsley.
Madam Clerk:
Oh, Mr. Horsley. Okay.
Chairman Wall:
Now, Madam Clerk?
Madam Clerk:
Okay. The motion is for denial and vote is open.
Chairman Wall:
Okay, one thing. Are there any abstentions? Sorry.
Commissioner Frankenfield:
I have a question. If it's for denial and I vote, I ...
Madam Clerk:
For denial.
21
Mr. Frankenfield:
Denies, okay. Got you. Sorry.
Madam Clerk:
By recorded vote of seven in favor and two against the motion for denial. Agenda item number
one has been recommended for denial.

Virginia Beach Planning Commission
November 10, 2021 Public Meeting
Agenda Item # 1
City of Virginia Beach, a Resolution to amend the City of Virginia Beach Comprehensive
Plan 2016 to address the citywide stormwater impacts for discretionary land use
applications.
RECOMMENDED FOR DENIAL— HEARD
Madam Clerk: Thank you, Mr. Chair. Our first agenda item is agenda item number one, City of
Virginia Beach, a resolution to amend the City of Virginia Beach Comprehensive Plan 2016 to
address city-wide stormwater impacts for discretionary land use applications.
David Weiner: Welcome.
Ms. Bookholt: Thank you. Good afternoon, Commissioners. I'm Carrie Bookholt. I'm the
Development Services Center Administrator, and I'm here to bring forward a proposed
amendment to the Comprehensive Plan, which is necessary to fulfil the components of the
recently passed City Council Resolution and Bond Referendum. On September 7th, City
Council passed a Resolution that stated should the Bond Referendum pass, the Comprehensive
Plan would be revised or amended within three weeks to include language that would
essentially require projects that come before you for a discretionary request, not create an
impact or increase demand in the stormwater system. Our staff report proposes the language
that we would like to amend the Comprehensive Plan, and it states that based on the Resolution
by City Council, all rezonings and conditional rezonings should demonstrate no impact on
current or future in stormwater infrastructure, and must provide a stormwater analysis,
demonstrating this has no impact as part of their Planning Commission application process. The
amendment also removes any reference to the Integrated Site Design Guide which is a policy
document that was not adopted by City Council and is not in place at this time. The Planning
Department and Public Works Department have been hosting a series of storm water
workshops with a focus group to include CVBIA, which was the former TBA group, consulting
engineers, developers, and two City Council liaisons. And this amendment was discussed at
length in those meetings, it was decided that the amendment would only apply to rezonings or
conditional rezonings. The City Council staff liaisons were comfortable and staff was
comfortable that should a proffer be volunteered for a conditional rezoning project, that a less
intense storm water design, preliminary design, could be submitted through our office before
receiving a positive recommendation. So with that, we had to act quite quickly. The resolution
that was passed in September, only gave us three weeks to get this before you and to City
Council, should the bond referendum pass and it did. So even with us being on the agenda for
December 7th for City Council, we're a week behind, but we had to act quickly. We did propose,
I do want to reiterate, we sent our proposed language to our stakeholder group, including
CVBIA. We received one minor comment back. We amended the proposed language to include
their comment. And then we received reassurance that they were on board with the proposed
language that we presented in our staff report today. Any questions?
1
David Weiner: Mr. Redmond?
Dave Redmond: Who gave you that reassurance? I have to tell you I've heard quite otherwise.
Ms. Bookholt: So, Claudia Cotton is the representative that we've been communicating with, as
the representative for CVBIA.
Dave Redmond: Okay, well,just so you know, I got a telephone call right after our informal
meeting saying, meant to call you earlier about this, but we were very uncomfortable with the
speed at which this is moving and feel like this process has been somewhat disingenuous.
There are folks who are part of that stakeholder group, that you describe, that don't feel that this
has been entirely proper and that it is moving too fast and that they were surprised by the
language that I think we were surprised by. So I don't mean to criticize you, but I think the
suggestion that everything is copacetic with regard to, that the stakeholder group, which I don't
know, other than the person who called me, I don't know anybody who was on it. Nobody from
the Planning Commission, I understand, was on it. I think, I have been told something quite
different than that and this very morning. So, that gives me great pause and I'm sure that City
Council will be hearing comments to that effect. So, certainly is going to, well, we're going to get
into this discussion here shortly, but I just wanted to put that on the record. It's not comfortable
for me to do it, but that's what I'm hearing and people reaching out to me saying just that.
Ms. Bookholt: Understood.
Dave Redmond: Thank you, Mr. Chairman.
David Weiner: Yes, ma'am?
Madam Clerk: We have one speaker...
David Weiner: Yes, ma'am. Okay. Anybody with the comments?
Dee Oliver: No, I mean, other than, and I guess I can wait for close, but just to reiterate what
had stated earlier this morning,just so that we do have it on the record, so to speak. And again,
appreciate all your time and effort presenting all of this and your work on it. But the stakeholder
meetings that I think and correct me if I'm mistaken, that you'd said that were weekly for about a
month, it's unfortunate that the Planning Commission had not been included in those for
something that's getting ready to be put into the Comprehensive Plan, which is something that
we haven't seen in three years. Not to mention that along with that, there's a Resolution that
was put forth and I'm not quite sure, I haven't been briefed, or I don't know who on the
Commission has in more, in-depth of where that resolution that came from one of our council
members, I believe it was Mr. Moss. How that speaks to this. And are they still two separate or
have they been in integrated because the wording in that was completely different than the
wording in this. So, I stand along with Commissioner Redmond on that, that it gives me great
pause because I have been in many other board meetings with the same stakeholders and
those same people have not expressed thumbs up on this, by any stretch of imagination. So
2
would like more time to be briefed on this, so that we have a better understanding of where we
are. Because this is extremely important, as we all know going forward.
Ms. Bookholt: And I should clarify that, when I say that we had consensus, it wasn't, as it relates
to the Resolution. The Resolution with the language that was included was done at City Council
level on September 7th. So the consensus that we achieved last week, via email, as we were
passing the language back and forth was the language that's proposed for the Comprehensive
Plan. So they're very, well maybe some folks that aren't on board with the Resolution language,
but that has already been passed.
Dee Oliver: Right. And so it's just a little not, I'd like to see it a little more straightforward. I'd like
to see everything, basically, is when it comes down to it. But again, I appreciate all your effort
and hard work.
David Weiner: So I have a question. So the language in that we have here compared to the
language that was in the Resolution, put that together for us?
Ms. Bookholt: So the language in the Resolution was written a little bit looser. And so we met
with the Council liaisons. We met with Councilman Moss to talk about what that would look like
in practice. And in practice, we discussed applying a preliminary storm water analysis
requirement to conditional rezonings, or rezonings only, instead of all discretionary applications,
since it's those two types of applications that could change the land cover characteristics the
most. And it was through those discussions as well, that they agreed that they would be open to
a less intense preliminary analysis. And essentially just reiterating that we would not be creating
any impact or any demand, that if the City is going to spend half a billion dollars on flood
protection projects, that we don't want to rezone out that capacity of the system.
David Weiner: And I got another question. Why did it have to be... Not putting you on the spot or
anything, but why did it have to be three weeks? There was a reason why it had to be three
weeks after the referendum question?
Ms. Bookholt: That I do not know. That's how it was written in the City Council's Resolution. I'm
not sure if the attorney has any other...
Ms. Wilson: I have no insight.
David Weiner: No. Okay. And I'm just curious...
Ms. Bookholt: That's how it came down to us.
David Weiner: As Mr. Redmond said earlier today, I mean, that's like three seconds or
whatever, however you put it. It's crazy to me it's quick. Okay. All right. Just that's good. Yeah,
we have one speaker.
Michael A. Inman: I got plenty to say.

Madam Clerk: Eddie Bourdon
David Weiner: Welcome, Mr. Bourdon.
Eddie Bourdon: Thank you, Mr. Chairman. For the record, Eddie Bourdon, Virginia Beach
attorney, land attorney, been practicing in Virginia Beach for 37 years. First of all, I was at the
City Council meeting when this Resolution was adopted, but there was no opportunity for
anybody to discuss. And frankly, couldn't be more ecstatic and proud of our City for having
approved the referendum 70% plus. And I frankly don't think anybody at that point who cares
about the future of the Virginia Beach was going to stand up and start asking questions about
what they were doing. So, but this is a different circumstance. This is a deliberative body that is
here for the purpose of the Comprehensive Plan. I didn't know anything about these meetings
every Friday, either. I obviously know they didn't include anybody on the Planning Commission
and, some of this, I'm not opposed to it, but I'm definitely concerned about, there hasn't been
enough deliberation and enough input from people who might have a little bit of, and I'm not
suggesting that Councilman Moss or Councilman Jones don't, but this has been half baked. The
northern part of the City, which is what this applies to, is 95% developed. And there's hardly any
zoning up there that's agriculture. And so the idea that we're going to have, well, and let me
back up before I get into that, rezonings. Not conditional rezonings, rezonings. No one's done
an analysis of the rezonings that have come forward in the last five or 10 years, because I can
assure you that there have been almost none and those that have come, they're typically down
zonings of already developed properties. So, but I don't understand why we put rezonings in
there because if you're going to, to create, I think, Carrie used the word drastically, or even
significantly increase impervious surface with a rezoning, I don't think there's been any of those.
Now with a conditional rezoning, that's conceivable. Certainly is a case in the southern part of
the city, middle part of the city. But I don't think there's been a lot of, I mean any analysis of
what the impact of this, basically a moratorium on rezonings might be. And I certainly, I'm not
opposed to the idea, although we have to do this anyway. I mean, the site plans got to be done
anyway. So you're basically telling somebody who might have a very... And let me back up,
Hackers today. And there's another one that recent, oh, Pembroke Mall. They don't have to
worry about this because they're reducing their impervious surface by 10%. And that takes it
out, you don't have to worry about that. If that came along today, I don't know that that's
covered in here, maybe it is. I'm not sure that it is, but they don't have to comply because they're
reducing by 10% their impervious surface. So, and you got all these other people who can add
on to stuff that's already zoned and they have to do the same thing, go through of the site plan
and still comply. So it's like, we're adding an extra layer of handcuffing or because you got to
come in and if you want to rezone your property and you don't want to spend thousands of
dollars before you can even get here, you have to say, well, we will meet the requirements. Well
the word no, is important, no impact. Well, these models are not meant for going in the weeds to
that point. And I went on today's agenda, it's taken us a year and a half. And I'll explain that
when we get to Atlantic Development, we don't get any credit for saving 89 acres of tree
forested land. No, no, at all. And we can't have one 100th of an inch, which isn't even
measurable, leave the property. Okay. So no, and if there's not at least the tiniest amount of
discretion on the part of our professional staff, we are basically saying we're not open for
business and that's what I'm concerned about. And I think there's some ways that this can be, at
least, come across as being less prohibitive and more balanced.

David Weiner: Does anybody have any questions for Mr. Bourdon? Any questions?
Eddie Bourdon: Thank you.
David Weiner: Thank you, sir. Appreciate it. Well, I guess we can just close this and get right
into it with us. We'll close it and start comments. Who's going first? Mr. Inman.
Michael Inman: Well, as I said, in the informal session, we are taking this on, with virtually no
notice. This is the Comprehensive Plan amendment. This is a big deal, but we all know that.
The intent of what is going on in this Comprehensive Plan amendment is good. I mean, we all
are, we're very aware of the storm management issue. We all want City of Virginia Beach to be
open for business. It's getting a reputation of not being open for business, part because of our
storm water management implementation. So, it's really important to get this right. And here
we've had no invitation to, as a body, to participate in all these deliberations that have taken
place. No idea that they were going on, even through a public, we weren't advised that we could
even go attend. A Resolution was passed in September by City Council to move forward with
this Comprehensive Plan amendment, as I'm understanding it. But not until the referendum
passed, if it passed, which thankfully it did. Okay. So then we got three weeks. Who thought of
that? I don't know. I mean, it's in the operation of a municipality, the size of Virginia Beach.
Making a storm water decision in three weeks seems preposterous to me. I know we're in a
hurry. I know it's important. So, we didn't know about the Resolution. We got the language late
last week in our package to study and without any real background and the intent is good, but
the devil is in the details, we all know that. It's a legal document, it's a Comprehensive Plan. So
can't imagine how we could... I would not be able to vote in favor of it today.
David Weiner: Mr. Redmond?
Dave Redmond: Well, a little bit different from what Mike said. The thing that I struggle with
here is I think you're exactly right. And I hate to have to say it, but this City is getting a
reputation for not being open for a business, in a lot of different ways. And that I think is
probably a conversation where you need to have it. I know we are having it at some levels, but
we need to have a bigger one. And this is part of it. But the notion that there is a process for
amending the Comprehensive Plan. Now I get that City Council calls the shots around here. No
disputing that, right? This is their prerogative, I understand that. The City Council can certainly
amend their three week deadline for figuring this out. As I said this morning in the informal
session, we're not going to spend 568 million bucks in the next three weeks. All of these
projects have an enormous amount of engineering to be done, before they get underway still.
And so I just don't understand the rush involved in that. And just today, somebody who was
supposedly involved in these discussions, they feel like it has been all together too rushed. So
I'm not offended that the Planning Commission isn't involved in a panel or a discussion or
something like that. I certainly think that probably would've been preferable, but I mean you
don't want to include us. I'm not going to feel like I didn't get invited to prom or something, but
still think like Mike does, that this really could have been done a lot better. And if you've got
them with a Comprehensive Plan, there's a process to do that, that's much more deliberative
than this. This is the bums rush, trying to do something much more quickly than it needs to be
done. And stuff doesn't get done right that way. And so that's my concern about it as well. So,
5
think, I would, in Mike's camp as I often am, but I'm in Mike's camp, that I'm not comfortable
supporting this today. If you only got two choices, yes and no. I'm a no, for those reasons. So it
doesn't make sense, Ms. Wilson, and I respect her too. Ms. Wilson says it doesn't make sense
to defer it, in which case we got one or two choices. And I'm just not able, frankly, with those
concerns to be able to support it. Thank you.
David Weiner: Mr. Graham?
Whitney Graham: I agree with my fellow Planning Commissioners. I, too, will not support this.
just feel like it was too rushed. I hear all the time that from other developers that feel that City of
Virginia Beach is difficult to do business in. The storm water models, it takes forever. You do
model after model after model, it's very expensive. It's not just submitting a storm water model.
There's back and forth, back and forth, back and forth. And it's expensive. And I'm concerned
that it's going to really shut down any redevelopment in the city. I just don't think it was well
thought out. And I feel like it's too rushed and I will not support this.
David Weiner: Ms. Bradley?
David Bradley: I got a question for Ms. Bookholt, if it's okay.
David Weiner: Sure. She doesn't mind coming back up, do you?
David Bradley: So just, obviously, 70 plus percent of the voters approved it. So, this is an
important issue to our citizens. And I was talking to you a little bit after the informal. So, in the
southern part of the city, this process already exists. In the northern part of the city, this is where
this would be implemented. But as the previous speaker said, there's probably not much
opportunity because it's already fully developed. And I guess, maybe my question is, when you
get to site development review, is anything changing because of this? Because that's where
think the rubber really hits the road on implementation of these things.
Ms. Bookholt: Right. The same type of analysis is still required at a site plan level. The type of
analysis is not going to change. The only thing that would change is that for projects, if you
came across a property where there was capacity in our existing storm water system, which is
rare to find, in that case, you would not be able to increase the flooding levels. So, the same
process is still going to exist. The only thing that would change is that you would have to hold to
that same exact...
David Bradley: Meaning, you have to be able to show that you have no impact on storm water
for your individual...
Ms. Bookholt: From your individual project. You haven't increased the demand leaving into our
public system from your project. So that'll be required. Yes.
David Bradley: Thank you.
6
David Weiner: Wait here. I don't think personally, we don't really have a... There's a little bit of
an issue of how the process is, but I think more than anything, we're just trying to rush this
through and we've never rushed anything through before on a Comprehensive Plan, because
this is something we take our time and look at and vette and talk to people and things like that.
But one question I wanted to ask you, last speaker said about the 10% pervious and they didn't
have to worry... What do they... When it's 10%, they're taking away 10% of pervious parking,
what does that do?
Ms. Bookholt: So, that they can satisfy certain storm water requirements by reducing their
impervious cover. And even if projects moving forward, if this were to, if the Comprehensive
Plan is to be amended, if you reduce the impervious cover on your site, your analysis is much
less complicated, and you can satisfy your storm water requirements by providing a reduction in
impervious cover.
David Weiner: Okay. So that didn't change at all?
Ms. Bookholt: No.
David Weiner: Okay. Just want to make sure.
Ms. Bookholt: Yes.
David Weiner: Any other questions for? Okay. Thank you, ma'am.
Ms. Bookholt: Thank you.
David Weiner: Any other questions or concerns or talk? So, I'm torn, I'm really upset of the fact
that we're rushing this through, but the Ordinance already been passed by Council. It's some
stuff we already do anyway. I don't think that's the issue. I just don't like the part that it's rushing
through. I don't like that. And I think we need to sit back and look on it. So, I'm not going to
support it either. So anybody wants to make a motion. Somebody?
Michael Inman: I'll make a motion.
David Weiner: Okay. Make a motion.
Michael Inman: I make a motion that we turn down the Resolution to amend the Comprehensive
Plan on item number one.
David Weiner: Right. You have a motion. Have a second?
Whitney Graham: I'll second.
David Weiner: Right. We have a motion by Mr. Inman, a second by Mr. Graham.
7
Madam Clerk: Okay. The motion is to deny. Vote is open. By recorded vote of 11 in favor and
zero against, agenda item number one has been denied, recommended for denial.

CITY OF VIRGINIA BEACH
AGENDA ITEM
ITEM: AN ORDINANCE TO AMEND SECTION 201 OF THE CITY ZONING
ORDINANCE PERTAINING TO SETBACKS FOR IN-GROUND POOLS
ADJACENT TO THE ATLANTIC OCEAN
MEETING DATE: May 3, 2022
• Background:
Staff requested an indefinite deferral of this request on July 21, 2020 to coordinate
the amendment change with the Department of Public Works and any potential
conflicts with the federally installed Seawall Flood Protection Project.
The North End of Virginia Beach consists predominately of two residential zoning
districts, the R-5R and the R-7.5. Properties located north of 49th Street are zoned
R-5R Residential District and included in the North End Overlay. Several years
ago, an amendment to the Zoning Ordinance was adopted that impacted the
setback for in-ground pools adjacent to the Atlantic Ocean for these properties,
reducing the setback from 20 feet to five feet. This amendment addresses the
remaining oceanfront properties between 42nd and 49th Street that are zoned R-
7.5 Residential District. This amendment extends the relief in the setback for in-
ground pools adjacent to the Atlantic Ocean from 20 feet to five (5) feet.
• Considerations:
The lots between 42nd and 49th Streets were platted in the 1920's. When the plats
were put to record, there was a public right-of-way that extended along the eastern
edge of the neighborhood, between the eastern most properties and the Atlantic
Ocean. This right-of-way, "Atlantic Avenue/Boulevard", still exists though it has
never been improved. Additionally, to protect the shoreline, a concrete retaining
seawall was constructed; therefore, the existing right-of-way is visually separated
from the public beach and appears to be part of the adjacent properties' rear yards.
When this wall was constructed, an agreement was entered into with the property
owners that the area could be used by them; however, no structures could be
constructed in that area. The area is actually fill material that is crucial to the
functioning of the seawall. Although oceanfront lots commonly have in-ground
pools, in the case of the oceanfront lots between 42nd and 49th Streets, because
the unimproved street encompasses a large portion of their perceived rear yard,
little room is left for the installation of an in-ground pool and Board of Zoning
Appeals variances are often sought. This amendment would reduce the setback
to five feet for in-ground pools, therefore making installation more practical and
reducing the number of variance requests, but requiring the applicant to seek

Page 2 of 2
confirmation from the United States Army Corps of Engineers (USACE) that the
seawall will not be undermined by the in-ground pool unless it is determined by the
Director of Public Works or his designee that the pool is outside of the USACE
area of jurisdiction. In most cases, the edge of the in-ground pool would still remain
20 to 30 feet from the edge of the seawall with the reduced setback proposed in
this amendment. It should be noted that the pool or any accompanying structure
cannot be located within public right-of-way. Further details pertaining to the
application, as well as Staffs evaluation, are provided in the attached Staff Report.
There is no known opposition to this request.
• Recommendations:
On June 10, 2020, the Planning Commission placed this item on the Consent
Agenda, passing a motion by a recorded vote of 8-0, to recommend approval of
this request.

Planning Commission Public Hearing June 10, 2020
In-ground Pool Setbacks 8
./B
Virginia Beach
Request
An Ordinance to amend Section 201 of the City Zoning Ordinance pertaining to setbacks for in-ground pools adjacent to
the Atlantic Ocean.
Summary of Request
The North End Area of Virginia Beach consists predominately of two residential zoning districts,the R-5R and the R-7.5.
Properties located north of 49th street are zoned R-5R and included in the North End Overlay. These properties permit a
higher density development, including duplex dwellings or two single-family homes on one lot. The properties located
between 42"d Street and 49th Street are zoned R-7.5 and only permit for the development of one single-family home on
each lot.
Several years ago an amendment to the Zoning Ordinance was adopted that impacted the setback for in-ground pools
adjacent to the Atlantic Ocean, reducing the setback from twenty (20)feet to five feet. This amendment addressed only
the oceanfront properties zoned R-5R, or as described above, north of 49th Street.This amendment extends the relief in
the setback for in-ground pools adjacent to the Ocean for the properties zoned R-7.5 and located between 42"d and 49th
Streets.
The neighborhoods between 42"d and 49th Streets, "Hollies on the Atlantic" and "Cavalier Shores,"were platted in the
1920's.When they were put to record,there was a public right-of-way that extended along the eastern edge of the
neighborhood, between the eastern most properties and the Atlantic Ocean.This right-of-way, "Atlantic Avenue",still
exists though it has never been improved. Additionally,to protect the shoreline, a concrete retaining sea wall was
constructed, therefore the existing right-of-way is visually separated from the public beach and appears to be part of the
adjacent property's rear yards. When this wall was constructed, an agreement was entered into with the property
owners that the area could be used by them; however, no structures could be constructed in that area.
Section 201 (a)(1) of the Zoning Ordinance identifies that in-ground pools have a twenty (20)foot setback from any rear
property line adjacent to a street.Although oceanfront lots commonly have in-ground pools, in the case of the
oceanfront lots between 42"d and 49th Streets, because the unimproved street encompasses a large portion of their
perceived rear yard, little room is left for the installation of an in-ground pool and Board of Zoning Appeals variances are
often sought.This amendment would reduce the setback to five feet for in-ground pools,therefore making installation
more practical and reducing the number of variance requests. In most cases,the edge of the in-ground pool would still
remain twenty(20)to thirty (30)feet from the edge of the sea wall. It should be noted that the pool or any
accompanying structure cannot be located within right-of-way.
City of Virginia Beach
Agenda Item 8
Page 1
Recommendation
Staff recommends approval of this Ordinance.This amendment would create a consistent rear yard setback for in-
ground pools for all oceanfront properties in the North End of Virginia Beach. Additionally,the change would limit the
number of variance requests that were being considered and all approved by the Board of Zoning Appeals. Although
"Atlantic Avenue" still exists between the Atlantic Ocean and the oceanfront properties,the right-of-way will never be
improved. Construction of the sea wall further restricted the right-of-way from any access by the public, and therefore
reducing the setback requirement is not expected to have any detrimental impact on the community, adjacent property
owners, or people using the beach.
