CITY OF VIRGINIA BEACH AGENDA ITEM J ITEM: An Ordinance to Amend the Ordinance Making Appropriations for Fiscal Year Beginning July 1 , 2023 and Ending June 30, 2024 for Operations MEETING DATE: June 6, 2023 • Background: The City Council adopted the FY2023-2024 Annual Appropriation Ordinance on May 9, 2023. This ordinance included a salary increase for all full and part- time employees in the amount of 5%. As presented in the May 9th approval, the salary increase was to be split between a step or merit increase of 3% and a general increase of 2%. On May 23, 2023, the City Manager presented a plan to the City Council that would implement the 5% salary increase for non-sworn employees through an adjustment to the pay plan classifications by an increase of one pay range. The City Manager's proposal will allow the City to address compression at the lower pay grades and allow the City to be competitive regionally for other positions. • Considerations: The City Manager's adjustment to the previously approved salary increases does not change the funding requirements for fiscal year 2023-2024. The attached ordinance amends the Annual Appropriation Ordinance to allow the implementation of the proposed adjustments to the pay plan as the manner of providing the 5% salary increase for non-sworn employees. The ordinance also clarifies that the City remains committed to the step plan that was included in the fiscal year 2022-2023 budget. • Public Information: Public information will be provided through the normal City Council agenda process. • Recommendations: Approve the attached ordinance. • Attachments: Ordinance; May 19, 2023 Memo to City Council Recommended Action: Approval Submitting Department/Agency: Human Resources/Budget and Management Services City Manager: ew 1 AN ORDINANCE TO AMEND THE ORDINANCE 2 MAKING APPROPRIATIONS FOR FISCAL YEAR 3 BEGINNING JULY 1, 2023 AND ENDING JUNE 30, 4 2024 FOR OPERATIONS 5 6 WHEREAS, the City Council adopted the FY2023-2024 Annual Appropriation 7 Ordinance on May 9, 2023; 8 9 WHEREAS, the City Manager presented a plan to the City Council on May 23, 10 2023, that would implement the 5% salary increase for non-sworn employees through an 11 adjustment to the pay plan classifications by an increase of one pay range; 12 13 WHEREAS, the City Manager's proposal will allow the City to address 14 compression at the lower pay grades and will allow the City to be competitive regionally 15 for other positions; 16 17 NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT ORDAINED BY THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY 18 OF VIRGINIA BEACH, VIRGINIA, THAT: 19 20 1. The City Council hereby amends the FY2023-2024 Annual Appropriation 21 Ordinance sections 17 and 18 to read as follows: 22 23 Sec. 17. A salary increase totaling 5% on the pay date containing July 1, 2023 is 24 hereby provided to both part-time and full-time City employees.

Duhaney, City Manager /.;1 Departments: City Manager's Office (CMO), Human Resources (HR) Date: May 19, 2023 Type of Item: Informational Summary At your May 23 City Council Workshop, FIR staff intends to brief City Council on a proposal to adjust how the 5%pay increase approved in recently adopted FY 2023-24 is delivered to non-sworn employees. The FY 2023-24 budget provides all employees with a 5%pay increase, delivered via a 2%general increase and a one-step merit increase(3%). For employees on the non-sworn pay plans,HR staff is recommending an alternative approach involving adjusting pay ranges by one range that will continue to provide a 5%pay increase for each employee as well as minimize some compression issues and address market factors impacting the City's competitiveness. This alternative approach is budget neutral in that it does not increase the FY 2023-24 budget,but it does increase employee earning potential over time. City Council approval is needed to make this change and staff intends to seek Council's concurrence to bring legislation forward at your first voting meeting in June to approve the alternative approach. Please note that staff is not planning to apply this alternative approach to sworn public safety. Generally,with the recent pay enhancements approved by City Council for sworn public safety personnel,we find that Virginia Beach's sworn public safety pay ranges remains competitive in comparison to other cities that we compete with for sworn public safety talent. Background In FY 2022-23, City Council approved the implementation of a market salary survey, step plan, and $15 minimum hourly wage for all City employees. The investment in our pay system provided an average 5%pay increase for employees and established a minimum sworn public safety officer salary of$51,000. Employees overwhelmingly supported and appreciated City Council's investment in their compensation. This played a key role in reducing the City's vacancy rates. In FY 2023-24, City Council approved another 5%pay increase,with an understanding that it would be delivered as a 2%general increase(COLA)and a one step, or 3%, merit increase. These actions would adjust each step on each range by 2%, then employees would advance one step forward. Employees on the open range would receive a 2% increase to their base pay(also adjusting the minimum and maximum of the pay range by 2%)and a merit increase equal to 3%of their pay range midpoint. Alternatively, City staff recommend that the FY 2023-24 pay increase be delivered to non-sworn employees as a one range adjustment within the pay structure, essentially reclassifying each position City Council Staff Report Proposed Adjustment to FY 2023-24 Employee Pay Increase May 19, 2023 to one pay range higher than the current range. Sworn positions will still receive a 2%general increase and one step adjustment. Both methodologies deliver a 5%increase;however,the movement of non-sworn positions to higher pay ranges will help mitigate compression and improve the City's competitiveness in the market for many hard to fill positions. Considerations The CMO and HR have discussed this approach with multiple directors,the public safety Chiefs, employee association representatives, and the Member Advisory Committee to determine if there would be any concerns with this approach. The responses were favorable and most recognized the need to be more competitive in the market and to establish Step 1 of our lowest grade close to $15/hour(to mitigate future compression). However, the CMO and HR acknowledge there may be some employees that without proper context may initially view this unfavorably as the City forgoing the annual step adjustment. As such, if approved by City Council,HR staff will work with the Department of Communications on a robust communication plan to clarify that non-sworn employees are still receiving their 5%while enhancing their salary range.Additionally,although the budget implications for FY2023-24 remain the same regardless of how the 5%is delivered, adjusting the classifications by one pay range does increase employee earning potential over time as the pay range maximum for each classification is extended by 5%as well.

The sidewalk provides connectivity and will tie into an existing sidewalk at 5153 Providence Road and an existing sidewalk at 5009 Providence Road. The project also includes piping the existing ditch, new curb and gutter, tree removal, driveway replacement, accessible curb ramps, pedestrian crosswalks, minor grading, and drainage improvement. The project will provide connectivity in an area that is clearly used by pedestrians even though there is no current sidewalk. This project will provide valuable connections between residences, schools, commercial, and recreation areas. All construction is within the limits of City owned right-of-way. The project has incurred unexpected expenses that have resulted in the construction contract exceeding the original contract amount by more than 25%. The three main drivers of this increased cost include: • Quantity overruns of estimated contract pay items, most of which were associated with maintenance of traffic on the project. The contract amount was based on an estimated quantity of the pay items. • Widening the pavement on north side of Providence Road to provide additional buffer area between the travel lanes and the work zone. This widening was necessary because within most of the project limits Providence Road has only two travel lanes with no shoulder. The dimensions of the lanes and work zone buffer as designed in the plans met the minimum requirements for maintaining traffic through a work zone. However, based on the field conditions and heavy traffic noted during construction, the project team decided to build out the shoulder on the north side of Providence Road by 2' to allow additional work zone buffer space. • Work associated with relocating an existing government fiber line that was found to be in direct conflict with storm drainage pipe being installed with the project. The design of the storm drainage system on the project was based on a survey performed in conjunction with the project design. A government fiber line was installed along Providence Road, following the completion of the project survey and consequently occupied the same area as the storm drainage system. The contractor installed conduits for the relocation of this fiber, to expedite the fiber relocation and minimize the project schedule delay. The project is currently funded by local and federal funding. The Total Project Cost is approximately $1,966,620.15. The City provides 60% funding ($1,179,972) from the Traffic Safety Improvements funds and the remaining 40% ($786,648) from the federal Transportation Alternative Program funds. • Considerations: The attached resolution provides the requisite approval by the City Council to allow the City to increase the construction contract to meet the project requirements. The funding for such increase, $540,820, will come from Capital Project #100423, "Traffic Safety Improvements Phase IV." • Public Information: Public information will be provided through the normal City Council agenda process. • Recommendations: Approve the increased funding request. • Attachments: Resolution; Location Map; Disclosure Form Recommended Action: Approval Submitting Department/Agency: Public Works City Manager: 1 A RESOLUTION APPROVING THE MODIFICATION 2 OF A CONSTRUCTION CONTRACT FOR 3 PROVIDENCE ROAD SIDEWALK IMPROVEMENTS 4 5 WHEREAS, in September 2021, the City executed a contract with Conrad 6 Brothers of Virginia, Inc. to provide construction services for Capital Project #100322, 7 "Providence Road Sidewalk Improvements;" 8 9 WHEREAS, due to overruns of estimated quantities, additional shoulder 10 widening and the need to relocate a government fiber line, the contract requires 11 modifications that exceed 25% of the original contract; 12 13 WHEREAS, the additional construction required to accomplish the scope of this 14 project will increase the contract price by 27.5% over the original fixed-price contract 15 amount of$1,966,620.15; 16 17 WHEREAS. the increased funding required is available in Capital Project 18 #100423, "Traffic Safety Improvements Phase IV;" and 19 20 WHEREAS, the Virginia Public Procurement Act requires City Council approval 21 of changes to contracts that exceed $50,000 or 25% of the original contract price, 22 whichever is greater. 23 24 NOW THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED BY THE COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF 25 VIRGINIA BEACH, VIRGINIA THAT: 26 27 The City Council hereby approves the modification of the aforementioned 28 construction contract with Conrad Brothers of Virginia, Inc. with a revised contract price 29 of$2,507,440.60.

NOW THEREFORE, the signatory parties enter into the following Agreement. This Agreement effective as of the first day of July 2023, among and between the eighteen local governments in Hampton Roads and the HRPDC, establishes and maintains the Hampton Roads Regional Stormwater Management Program. BASIC PREMISES All local governments in Hampton Roads operate stormwater management programs. The Cities of Chesapeake, Hampton, Newport News, Norfolk, Portsmouth and Virginia Beach received VPDES Permits in 1996. Those permits, which were renewed in 2001, govern the discharges from their MS4s to waters of the state and impose certain operational and reporting requirements on those systems. In 2005, these permits were converted to VSMP permits. These permits must be renewed on a 5 year basis and the localities applied for renewed permits in 2005. Localities operated programs under administratively continued permits until June 30, 2016. The existing permits became effective on July 1, 2016 and have been administratively continued since June 30, 2021. The Cities of Poquoson, Suffolk, and Williamsburg, and the Counties of Gloucester, Isle of Wight, James City, and York were all identified by the EPA as requiring VPDES permits under Phase II of the MS4 regulations. Those localities that operate MS4s obtained VPDES permits in March 2003. Those permits also imposed certain operational and reporting requirements on those systems. In 2005, these permits were converted to VSMP permits. These permits must be renewed on a 5 year basis with the next renewal planned for 2023. On April 15, 2016, the Virginia Department of Environmental Quality notified Isle of Wight County that their Phase II MS4 Permit would be terminated because the County neither owned nor operated a small MS4 within the census-defined urbanized area. Isle of Wight County does not currently own or maintain stormwater systems outside of County-owned properties. Revised February 9, 2023 2 Although Gloucester County was initially identified by the EPA as requiring a Phase II MS4 permit, it was subsequently determined that permit coverage for Gloucester County was not required. The City of Franklin, the Counties of Gloucester, Isle of Wight, Southampton and Surry and the Towns of Smithfield and Windsor are governed by stormwater management requirements established under the Virginia Stormwater Management Act and the Virginia Erosion and Sediment Control Law. The Chesapeake Bay Preservation Act also governs Gloucester and Surry Counties and the Towns of Smithfield and Windsor. As of July 1, 2014, all localities have implemented stormwater management programs that meet the minimum requirements established in the Virginia Stormwater Management Act. The Virginia Stormwater Management Act imposes operational and reporting requirements on all localities that are required to implement stormwater management programs. The local governments are interested in managing stormwater in a manner which protects and does not degrade waters of the Commonwealth and which meets locally established quality of life goals and objectives. The Clean Water Act and the VSMP require that stormwater quantity and quality be managed to the maximum extent practicable. In carrying out their stormwater management responsibilities, the local governments have developed a consensus on regional goals to guide the operation of their stormwater management programs. Initially, as approved by the HRPDC at its Executive Committee Meeting of September 15, 1999, these goals are to: 1. Manage stormwater quantity and quality to the maximum extent practicable, including: • Implement best management practices (BMPs) and retrofit flood control projects to provide water quality benefits. • Support site planning and plan review activities. • Manage pesticide, herbicide and fertilizer applications. 2. Implement public information activities to increase citizen awareness and support for the program. 3. Meet the following needs of citizens: • Address flooding and drainage problems. • Maintain the stormwater infrastructure. • Protect waterways. • Provide the appropriate funding for the program. 4. Implement cost-effective and flexible program components. 5. Satisfy MS4 stormwater permit requirements: Revised February 9, 2023 3 • Enhance erosion and sedimentation control. • Manage illicit discharges, spill response, and remediation. This Agreement establishes the administrative framework, which will be used by the local governments in Hampton Roads to address certain stormwater management requirements under the above-cited state and federal laws and regulations. Eighteen local governments in the Hampton Roads Region will be participants in and signatories to the Agreement. HRPDC RESPONSIBILITIES Under the terms of this Agreement, the HRPDC staff must: • Provide technical support and policy analysis related to stormwater and water quality issues to local government staff. • Provide the necessary administrative, technical and clerical resources to support program activities to ensure that the MS4 permit-holding cities and counties meet applicable stormwater management requirements. • Prepare an annual work program and budget for the Hampton Roads Regional Stormwater Management Program. The annual work program will be incorporated into the HRPDC Unified Planning Work Program and the annual budget will be incorporated into the HRPDC budget. • Assist the signatories in coordinating reporting on stormwater related activities to other state and federal agencies to ensure that program requirements are met in a cost-effective manner, that minimizes duplicative reporting and the administrative burden on the signatories. • Conduct a regional stormwater education program. This will include public education activities and may include outreach to specific economic sectors and groups. The stormwater education subcommittee of askHRgreen.org will be responsible for guiding the development of original materials, including publications, media advertising and promotional items. This may also include development of locality-specific materials or coordination of bulk purchases. The stormwater education subcommittee of askHRqreen.org will coordinate with HRPDC staff on the educational and outreach components of the Hampton Roads Regional Stormwater Management Program. • Develop and conduct a regional training program for municipal employees, contractors, civic leaders, and other interested parties. The training program will emphasize stormwater management, pollution prevention and permit issues. Revised February 9, 2023 4 • Respond equitably and in a timely fashion to requests from all signatory local governments for technical assistance. The time frame for responses will be based on experience, the complexity of individual requests and the overall work load of program staff. • Provide other technical support, as requested, to the signatory local governments. • Upon request from one or more participating localities, conduct technical studies to support compliance by the localities with MS4 permit requirements and VSMP program requirements. • Facilitate development of multi-jurisdictional management plans for shared watersheds, as requested. • Take steps, in conjunction with the signatory local governments, to obtain financial support for program activities from outside sources, including state, federal and private grants, to the extent that this may be accomplished without creating a conflict of interest, as determined by the signatory local governments. • Contract with and manage consultants, including both private firms and academic institutions, to support the regional program, including provision of requested services to local governments in excess of the common program elements. • Represent the Hampton Roads Regional Stormwater Management Program at federal, state, regional and local governmental, civic, professional and political organizations, agencies, and committees. • Provide technical and administrative support, as appropriate, to those localities that are required to develop stormwater management programs to meet VSMP requirements, but that are not required to obtain MS4 permits for their stormwater discharges. • Prepare annual program reports, or components thereof, which comply with the provisions of the MS4 permits and stormwater management programs of the signatory localities. • Facilitate local government involvement in TMDL studies being prepared through the Virginia Department of Environmental Quality and EPA and facilitate preparation of TMDL Implementation Plans for impaired waters in the Hampton Roads Region as requested. • Prepare an annual report of activities undertaken through the Hampton Roads Stormwater Management Program. This report will include summaries of related activities undertaken on a cooperative basis by the signatories. • Identify state and federal regulatory actions that may affect local government stormwater programs, serve on regulatory advisory panels (RAPs) as necessary, Revised February 9, 2023 5 conduct policy analysis, and develop policy recommendations on behalf of the HRPDC. • Coordinate the compilation of regional data for MS4 permit annual reports to the appropriate regulatory authority, as appropriate. LOCAL GOVERNMENT RESPONSIBILITIES Under the terms of the Agreement, the signatory local governments must: • Participate, as appropriate, in the Regional Environmental Committee to represent the local government's respective stormwater and water quality related concerns. • Appoint a representative and alternates, as appropriate, to the stormwater education subcommittee of askHRgreen.org. • Provide, in a timely fashion, all locally generated data required by their MS4 permits and such other data as may be necessary to accomplish locally requested services. • Provide timely technical review of HRPDC analyses and conclusions. • Participate in regional efforts to conduct public outreach and education activities regarding the Commonwealth's TMDL study process and efforts to develop TMDL Implementation Plans for impaired waters lying within the locality or within watersheds that include the locality. • Provide input on regulatory issues to HRPDC staff and serve on RAPs or provide input to the regional RAP representative as appropriate. • Reasonably support HRPDC efforts to obtain additional funding to support the regional programs to the extent that this may be accomplished without creating a conflict of interest, as determined by the signatory local governments. • Provide annual funding to support the agreed-upon regional program, subject to annual appropriation. METHOD OF FINANCING The majority of program costs will be allocated according to a formula reflecting each locality's share of the regional population. Costs for additional projects or services will be allocated based on a formula developed by the HRPDC staff and approved by the HRPDC with the concurrence of the signatory local governments. For example, in the past, the cost of legal services have been split between the localities with MS4 permits and the Revised February 9, 2023 6 maintenance costs for the regional online BMP database were split by the subset of localities still using the system. AVAILABILITY OF FUNDS Performance by the HRPDC of its responsibilities under this Agreement is subject to the availability of funding from the signatory local governments. Failure of the local governments to provide the necessary funding to support these activities will constitute a Notice to Modify or Terminate the Agreement. MODIFICATIONS Modifications to this Agreement must be expressly written, approved by the HRPDC, and accepted by all signatories. DURATION AND TERMINATION This Agreement will have a term of ten years, extending from the date of full execution of the Agreement by the signatories or July 1, 2023 whichever occurs last through June 30, 2033. To conform to local government charter and Virginia Code requirements, the funding provisions of this Agreement are subject to annual appropriations. No later than September 1, 2032, the signatories will institute a formal reevaluation of the Hampton Roads Regional Stormwater Management Program. This reevaluation will serve as the basis for appropriate modification of the Agreement and the Hampton Roads Regional Stormwater Management Program. Any signatory may terminate its participation in the Hampton Roads Regional Stormwater Management Program by sending a written Notice To Terminate to all other parties. Such termination will be effective the start of the following Fiscal Year. Depending upon the terms of individual VSMP permits, termination of participation in the Hampton Roads Regional Stormwater Management Program in the middle of a permit term may result in changes to permit conditions and require renegotiation of the individual locality's VSMP permit from the Virginia Department of Environmental Quality. OWNERSHIP OF PROPERTY It is not the intent of the signatories that the Agreement will result in the purchase, ownership, leasing, holding, or conveying of any form of interest in any real property. INDEMNITY It is the intent of the signatories that no signatory will be held liable for any damage or associated penalties caused by or associated with the failure of any other signatory to discharge its duties or to exercise due diligence in discharging its duties under this Agreement, and that no signatory, by entering this Agreement, waives any defenses or immunities available to it at law, including, but not limited to, those set forth in Section 15.2-970 of the Code of Virginia. Revised February 9, 2023 7 It is the intent of the signatories that no signatory will be held liable for any damage or associated penalties caused by or associated with the failure of any other signatory to comply with the terms and conditions of the signatory's VSMP permit. NO INTENT TO BENEFIT THIRD PARTIES This Agreement is intended for the benefit of the parties hereto and is not for the benefit of, nor may any provision hereof be enforced by, any other person or entity. COUNTERPARTS This Agreement may be executed in any number of counterparts, and each counterpart signature, when taken with the other counterpart signatures, is treated as if executed upon one original of this Agreement.

The Temporary Encroachments would encroach into a portion of City-owned property along the 83rd Street beach access, 15' into the coastal sand dunes, also known as GPIN: 2510-60-2699. The Applicants do not live adjacent to the location of the Temporary Encroachments. • Considerations: City Staff has reviewed the Temporary Encroachments and does not recommend approval. Allowing the Temporary Encroachments violates City Code Sec. 1608.1 that no permanent alteration of or construction upon any coastal primary sand dune shall take place. There is a concern that the Temporary Encroachments may attract the public to walk on the dunes to get to the dolphin statue, which may cause further harm to the dune. Moreover, approval of the Temporary Encroachments into the sand dune will encourage other encroachment applications into the primary dune, which could lead to impairment of the natural functions of the dune, physically alter the contour of the dune, and/or destroy vegetation growing. • Public Information: Public notice will be provided via the normal City Council agenda process. • Alternatives: Deny the Temporary Encroachments or add conditions as desired by Council. • Recommendations: Deny the request. • Attachments: Ordinance, Exhibit, Agreement, Pictures, Location Map and Disclosure Statement Form Recommended Action: Denial Submitting Department/Agency: Public Works/Real Estate90 City Manager:iiiii) 1 Requested by Department of Public Works 2 3 AN ORDINANCE TO AUTHORIZE 4 TEMPORARY ENCROACHMENTS INTO 5 A PORTION OF CITY-OWNED 6 PROPERTY ALONG THE 83RD STREET 7 BEACH ACCESS, 15' INTO THE 8 COASTAL SAND DUNES (GPIN: 2510- 9 60-2699) 10 11 WHEREAS, John Koehler and Patty Koehler (collectively, the "Koehlers") 12 have requested permission to construct and maintain a 3' long steel beam welded to a 4"x 13 7' steel pole, and 9' chrome painted fiberglass dolphin into a portion of an existing City- 14 owned property along the 83rd Street beach access, 15' into the coastal sand dunes, also 15 known as GPIN: 2510-60-2699 (the "Temporary Encroachments"); and 16 17 WHEREAS, City Council is authorized pursuant to §§ 15.2-2009 and 15.2- 18 2107, Code of Virginia, 1950, as amended, to authorize temporary encroachments upon 19 the City-owned property subject to such terms and conditions as Council may prescribe. 20 21 NOW, THEREFORE BE IT ORDAINED BY THE COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF 22 VIRGINIA BEACH, VIRGINIA: 23 24 That pursuant to the authority and to the extent thereof contained in §§ 15.2- 25 2009 and 15.2-2107, Code of Virginia, 1950, as amended, the Koehlers, their heirs, 26 assigns and successors in title are authorized to construct and maintain the Temporary 27 Encroachments in the City-owned property as shown on the map entitled: "EXHIBIT A — 28 PLAT OF PROPOSED DOLPHIN PROJECT," dated October 18, 2021, a copy of which 29 map and a picture of the dolphin are attached hereto as Exhibit A and on file in the 30 Department of Public Works and to which reference is made for a more particular 31 description; 32 33 BE IT FURTHER ORDAINED, that the Temporary Encroachments are 34 expressly subject to those terms, conditions and criteria contained in the agreement 35 between the City of Virginia Beach and the Koehlers (the "Agreement"), an unexecuted 36 copy of which has been presented to the Council in its agenda, and will be recorded among 37 the records of the Clerk's Office of the Circuit Court of the City of Virginia Beach; 38 39 BE IT FURTHER ORDAINED, that the City Manager or his authorized 40 designee is hereby authorized to execute the Agreement; and 41 42 Adopted by the Council of the City of Virginia Beach, Virginia, on the 43 day of , 2023.

Regarding Expenditure of Funding from the Virginia Department of Historic Resources MEETING DATE: June 6, 2023 • Background: The Virginia General Assembly authorized twenty-five thousand dollars ($25,000) to be appropriated by the Virginia Department of Historic Resources ("DHR") to the City of Virginia Beach ("City") ("Funding") for the purpose of conducting restoration activities at the historic Pleasant Ridge School ("School") located on property owned by Asbury Christian Fellowship Church, Inc. ("Asbury Church") at 1392 Princess Anne Road in Virginia Beach ("Project"). The DHR and the City are proposing to enter into a memorandum of understanding ("MOU") whereby the City will be the recipient of the Funding and will transfer the Funding to Asbury Church for the Project. The City and the Asbury Church are proposing to enter into a separate memorandum of understanding ("Asbury Church MOU") whereby the City will provide the Funding to Asbury Church for the purpose of conducting restoration activities at the School, and Asbury Church will satisfy the City's reporting and other requirements under the MOU between the City and DHR. ■ Considerations: Under the terms of the proposed MOU between the City and DHR, the City will receive the Funding from DHR and the City will: 1) serve as a fiscal conduit for the Project by receiving and transferring the Funding to the Asbury Church; 2) ensure that Asbury Church submits the final Project report to DHR and the City within thirty (30) days of expenditure of the Funding; and 3) ensure that the Asbury Church maintains accurate records for the use of the Funding and retains the records for a minimum of five (5) years from completion of the Project. The proposed MOU is for a term of two years and may be renewed upon mutual written agreement of DHR and the City. The proposed MOU does not require any additional or matching funds from the City. The terms of the proposed Asbury Church MOU require Asbury Church to 1) use the Funding exclusively for certain enumerated restoration activities at the School, including, but not limited to, roof and sheathing replacement, gutter installation, repair and staining floors, painting interior surfaces, interior windowsill repair, and installation of interior storm windows; 2) submit a completed Project report to the City and DHR within thirty (30) days of full expenditure of the Funding; and 3) maintain accurate records regarding the use of the Funding, and retain such records for a minimum of five (5) years following completion of the Project. The attached MOU is specific to the allocation of revenue from the Virginia Department of Historic Resources; however, local fund-raising events have occurred for the specific purpose of supporting this restoration project. More specifically, the Creeds Ruritan would like to contribute an estimated $3,000 toward this project following the same parameters established through the MOU.

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 $13.9 million in FY 2022-23, which was based upon FY 2020-21 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 2021-22 due to increased program utilization and increased rates. Based upon an analysis of program spending by CSA staff, the CPMT has reviewed and approved a supplemental funding request to OCS. The total cost of the increase is $2,614,730. The Commonwealth's portion is $1,919,161, and the balance ($695,569) is the required local match. • Considerations: The OCS has approved the City's request for supplemental funding.

COUNCIL DISTRICT 2 MEETING DATE: June 6, 2023 • Background: The application was deferred by the City Council on April 4, 2023, in order to provide the applicant time to engage with the community on the proposal. In December 2016, City Council approved the rezoning request of 146 acres from AG-1 & AG-2 Agricultural Districts to Conditional I-1 Light Industrial District for the establishment of the Princess Anne Commons Biomedical Park. The Park was intended to support medical and research institutions. The Park has been mostly vacant, due in large part to the change in market demands for this industry. The applicant is seeking to amend the Proffer Agreement and the Design and Development Guidelines to expand the Park's focus to research, education, technology, manufacturing, finance, business, and other commercial uses while ensuring that future development will be of a high quality design and include site elements that will contribute to the ultimate goal of creating a park-like setting. The proposed revisions will apply to 113 of the total 146 acres, since the remaining parcels opted to remain under the 2016 Design and Development Guidelines. The new Design and Development Guidelines seek to: • change the name of the Park from "Princess Anne Commons Biomedical Park" to "Innovation Park", • update photos/illustrations, • reduce redundancy and better align the document with current codes and requirements, • permit more flexibility with new and innovative materials and construction methods, and • provide more guidance on light industrial and advanced manufacturing building types. City of Virginia Beach Development Authority Page 2 of 4 • Considerations: The Planning Commission concurs with Staff that the request to update the Design and Development Guidelines for the Park is acceptable. Overall, the new Design and Development Guidelines provide improved screening requirements and allow greater flexibility with building materials, while retaining guidelines to ensure the Park develops into an attractive "park-like" setting with continuity of open spaces from the surrounding Princess Anne Commons. The new Design and Development Guidelines will simplify the review process for developments within the Park, which aligns with current codes and regulations. If the design criteria update is not adopted, opportunities to grow and diversify the local economy could be missed by the current design requirements. The updated design and development guidelines would create a more marketable Park in this region. In January 2023, a letter was sent to the two non-VBDA property owners explaining the update and giving them the opportunity to be a party to this application. YCH, LLC requested to be a co-applicant, while the other owner was not interested and will follow the former 2016 Design and Development Guidelines. The application was presented to the TA/ITA Committee on March 2, 2023. Although the Committee raised concerns over the overall change in the vision for the park, no definitive action was taken. The applicant met with the Committee again on March 30, 2023 prior to the April 4, 2023 City Council Hearing to discuss the application further at which time, the Committee voted in opposition of the application by a recorded vote of 6-1 . The applicant also attended the TA/ITA Committee meeting on May 4, 2023, to further engage the group and to address concerns raised in the March 31, 2023 letter from the TA/ITA Committee addressed to the City Council. The applicant provided information about the shift from a Biomedical Park to Innovation Park and answered questions. During that meeting, the Committee expressed the need to protect the viewshed from Princess Anne Road. On May 22, 2023, the applicant responded to the feedback received by the TA/ITA Committee and made minor adjustments to the Design and Development Guidelines to address the viewshed from Princess Anne Road. Further details pertaining to the application, as well as Staff's evaluation, are provided in the attached Staff Report. One letter of concern was received from the TA/ITA Committee with concerns related to stormwater, transparency of the application, unsightly aesthetic standards, and incompatible use. • Recommendation: On March 8, 2023, the Planning Commission passed a motion to recommend approval of this request by a vote of 7 to 0.

It was envisioned that the rezoning of the property would assist the Virginia Beach Development Authority(VBDA) in marketing the site as the "VA Beach Bio Research Park" (Bio Park) to support medical and research institutions. As part of this Conditional Rezoning Agreement, the applicant established Design and Development Guidelines to ensure the Park would be attractive and developed cohesively. Ultimately, the planned Bio Park did not align with market demands, leaving the majority of the Park vacant. • In response to recent growth in other industry sectors, the applicant seeks to amend the Proffer Agreement and Design and Development Guidelines to expand the Park's focus to research, education, technology, manufacturing, finance, business, and other commercial uses. • The proposed revision to the Design and Development Guidelines would apply to approximately 113 of the total 146 acres as depicted in the Site Layout Plan on Page 9 of this report. The remaining portion of the Park would remain under the 2016 Guidelines. • The new Design & Development Guidelines seek to: o change the name of the Park from "Princess Anne Commons Biomedical Park" to "Innovation Park", o update photos/illustrations, o reduce redundancy and better align the document with current codes and requirements, o permit more flexibility with new and innovative materials and construction methods, and o provide more guidance on light industrial and advanced manufacturing building types. • Letters were mailed to property owners within the Park to allow them an opportunity to be party to this application. One property owner, YCH, LLC, accepted. • The Park is located within the 65-70 and 70-75 dB DNL noise zone of the AICUZ and within the Interfacility Traffic Area (ITA). • The applicant appeared before the Transition Area / Interfacility Traffic Area Committee (TA/ITA) on March 2, 2023, to brief the Committee on the proposal. The Committee raised concerns over the changes to the Design Criteria and Development Guidelines and the overall change in the vision for the Park. No definitive decision was made, and no vote was taken.

The current Design and Development Guidelines are outdated and no longer align with the development pattern originally envisioned for the Park. Other property owners within the Park were informed of the request to update the design guidelines and chose not to be included with this request. Those properties will remain under the existing Design Guidelines adopted in 2016. Overall,the new Design and Development Guidelines provide improved screening requirements and allow greater flexibility with building materials, while retaining guidelines to ensure the Park develops into an attractive "park-like" setting with continuity of open spaces from the surrounding Princess Anne Commons.

So now we'll move on to the next, the regular agenda, which we have one item, it's not, there's no opposition, but just for clarity, we want to go ahead and hear it just so that the public can hear exactly what the Virginia Beach Development Authority is offering. Thank you. Madam Clerk: Thank you Mr. Chairman. Our final agenda item is agenda item number two, City of Virginia Beach Development Authority. It's an application for a Modification of Proffers on parcels located between 2009 Hudome Way to Tournament Drive, and a parcel on the Southeast corner of Princess Anne Road and Tournament Drive located in council District two. Ms. Archer: Good afternoon. Thank you, Commissioner, members of the Commission; I'm Emily Archer with Economic Development, a project coordinator with the office, representing the Virginia Beach Development Authority for this application. I have a few slides if you allow me to go through them to help explain that. This is located off of Hudome way in Princess Anne Road in District two. Existing conditions, it's mostly open farm field at the moment. We are requesting the Modification of Proffers really to update the design guidelines for the business park. Everything in yellow that you see is owned by the Virginia Beach Development Authority and will be applied to this updated proffers and design guidelines. In January, there are two other owners within the Innovation Park, YCH, LLC and Acoustical Sheet Metal, and they were both notified in January and asked if they would like to be party to this application. YCH, LLC in red up on the screen, asked to be a co- applicant. I don't see them here but, so everything except what is shown in orange will fall under these new proffers that we're requesting. And the orange will remain under the old 2016 proffers. A little bit about the Innovation Park, it's 150 acre Business Park that was conveyed to the Virginia Beach Development Authority in 2016 by Council. It currently is governed by existing proffers and guidelines that were adopted in 2016. It is also highlighted for vision in the ITA, Interfacility Traffic Area plan in 2017. You can see that, the vision was to incorporate regional trail network that the wooded area be preserved, which is mostly wetlands that the development be consistent with the design guidelines adopted at that time and that the stormwater best management practices be employed. Many of those still remain but what has changed is that the park was initially envisioned to house biomedical office buildings, and we found that that biomedical ecosystem of Virginia Beach really needed to boost first. We have since opened a bio-accelerator at Bendix Road for small incubator kind of businesses to help build up that ecosystem within Virginia Beach that will hopefully lead to more larger developments that could still go within the Innovation Park. And then also within that time, the market has really shifted to more industrial sectors growing within our economy, while the focus still remains technology and manufacturing supporting the field of scientific innovations. The density of the park has also changed based on the updated stormwater regulations for the city requiring larger BMPs and more of them to accommodate the development that was envisioned there. So why this is really needed is to keep up with market future and current marking conditions within the city. As mentioned, the existing design guidelines really built, designed for that medical office user and we're finding as more industrial users come in, it's the, the guidelines isn't in the document as needed to address those type of larger format industrial buildings to still achieve the static qualities as the park was always envisioned to achieve the higher level of statics within the park. So update to the guidelines to help permit those types of buildings to come in, and provide developers and staff guidance on how to get there with every applicant. The guidelines are broken into overall changes highlighted here, but also a building section and a site plan section are briefly covered the changes in those sections. The change of the cover on the name from Virginia Beach Bio Park to the Innovation Park of course, the whole document has been reformatted with updated photos of Princess Anne Commons in context of the park and it's very user friendly and easier to kind of find the information you need, as well as there's another end section that talks all about the approval process with VBDA for guidance on what steps the applicant will be asked to follow. In the site design section, there's been a lot of editing of the landscape and planting requirements. There's an existing typewritten section under the existing appendix guidelines that have been incorporated into the text and edited for clarity and redundancy with our zoning landscape ordinance. There are still requirements for landscape and planting as well above and beyond the landscape ordinance such as enhanced entry drives as you see on the screen, irrigation around all planting beds and sod rather than seed for grass area. There's a new fencing section that talks about if fencing is required for security. It should only be in the rear side of the property and coupled with planting and decorative and sustainable in nature. Outdoor amenity spaces are encouraged in the new document and there's a new signage section that dresses, signage requirements again above and beyond what's in the signage ordinance for the city. In the building design category as mentioning there's more examples and guidance for advanced manufacturing and light industrial facilities, including a wider material pallet. More guidance provided for outdoor staging and storage, provided that if they're, if they are employing those uses that they're in the rear of the property and screened you around with walls and landscape material, there's an existing parking structure section in the existing design guidelines that we felt the park would never really achieve that level of density to require parking structure and that has been removed. And then, can see a bit about our schedule. Signs are posted around the park. It's been to be the Development Authority as well as the ITA Committee last week here today and hopefully City Council in April. Thank you. Mr. Alcaraz: Thank you, Ms. Archer for doing that, thank you. Is there any questions for Ms Archer? Okay, go ahead. Mr. Horsley: I don't, I don't really have any questions. I just got a couple of comments that, you know, after seeing and hearing your presentation this morning and understanding what we had established years ago is the Biomedical Park isn't, coming to fruition and we've going to try to do some type of industrial there, I think that's probably a wise decision and the main thing that we want to concur with, and I think we do, is that it has to be done in a very tasteful manner because this is on the gateway to coming into the city hall and we wanna make sure it's done in a very tasteful and lovely manner that people would, they come and visit our city so, and I think according to the information you provide us this morning, it seems like that's headed in that direction. So I have no problem with changing to Innovation Park. I don't think that's a, I think, I think that's probably a very good move, so I would support the application. Mr. Alcaraz: Alright, thank you Mr. Horsley. Is there any other comments or questions? None, like to entertain a motion. Mr. Horsley: Having said what I did before, I'll make a motion that we'll approve the application. Mr. Plumlee: I'll second. Mr. Alcaraz: Second by, Mr. Plumlee, thank you. Madam Clerk: The vote is open. Madam Clerk: Mr. Clemons can I get your verbal vote? Aye or nay? Mr. Clemons: Aye. Madam Clerk: Thank you. By recorded vote of seven in favor, zero against agenda item number two has been recommended for approval.

Much of the increase in the size of the area came after December 2005,when the Comprehensive Plan, Zoning Ordinance, and related development ordinances were amended to protect the Interfacility Traffic Area (ITA) between NAS Oceana and NALF Fentress from development.An Interfacility Traffic Area Overlay District was adopted, consisting of areas having an AICUZ greater than 65 dB DNL. Due to the incompatibility of residential uses in the higher AICUZ of the ITA, one of the principal effects of this new designation was to reduce the residential density to what could be achieved by right with Agricultural zoning (one unit per 15 acres).A second, and what has proven to be a more significant effect was an increase in the area owned by the City of Virginia Beach,as the City and U.S. Navy began a program of purchasing property voluntarily offered to the City by private property owners. , , :a!A ,� 'r„ ' Princess Anne Commons now offers the prospect to ` •,� �� expand on the original goals established for it, providing unique education, medical, entertainment, recreation, 4 ' 4 habitat preservation, and quality economic e- tE AMPh.-- -;.4 development opportunities.Additionally,the ` w,ar Comprehensive Plan designates this area as Special nal)"° - Economic Growth Area 4- Princess Anne Commons, sLiaimassmo. .• r recognizing the land development constraints and economic development opportunities associated with this area's location within a military aircraft overfly zone.A primary focus of this area will be to provide locations for campus-like development that may not be suitable in a more urban setting. While recognizing that some land use adjustments are appropriate to accomplish strategic public outcomes, the Comprehensive Plan provides the following general recommendations for Princess Anne Commons (SEGA 4), unless otherwise specified by these Guidelines: • Strive to achieve extensive open space connectivity throughout the Commons. • Protection of most sensitive land. • Mixed-use town center style development in the Municipal Center and Historic/Cultural District, including residential uses in AICUZ under 65 dB DNL. • Low-impact campus style development for work, education, research, and recreation. • Guidelines for building types to ensure appropriate quality and character. • Public amenity areas for walking, cycling, and recreation. • High-quality parkway-level roadways with landscaped edges, pathways, and low- level lighting with good lighting coverage.

Specifically, the purposes of the Guidelines are as follows: a. Assist property owners and developers regarding appropriate site, building, and sign design; Page 1-2/Introduction Design and Development Guide/Biomedical Park November 2016 Introduct on 1 b. Encourage innovation and creativity in the design and use of sites and buildings; and c. Enhance the visual appeal,and thus the general ambience of the Commons. Eventually,there will be several sets of Guidelines for the different types of development and activities that are envisioned for Princess Anne Commons. This document,however, provides design and development guidance for the "VABeachBio Research Park" that will develop within Princess Anne Commons Biomedical Park.This 'BioPark' will develop parallel to the southern side of Princess Anne Road, stretching from Landstown Centre Way at the west to Tournament Drive at the east.The graphic below shows the location of the BioPark in relationship to existing and proposed development in North Princess Anne Commons. / , N. 00 moo Analusi\ 1/4.7....- -: L o a "(F/eldhouse ° ' ',.; t. , B j / Sportsplex) " i i •4 0 i .4.7;.+ Z (VBPB- f ,o.. t Stadium) �-- ----- .

During the individual site development stage,the landscape architect and site designer should give careful consideration and analysis to respond to surrounding site components such as site context, open space,landmarks,views and vistas,streetscapes,and the protection of existing vegetation. • 1111 During the design process, w - , . begin by identifying existing `t� natural characteristics of the - �'` ± K; 00,4 site that should be y , conserved. Natural site features and landform - f should be considered in the early stages of development .aw. ten ` design prior to building .;,,`,.:::. placement. Natural site u -- amenities may consist of a significant stand of trees, unusual topographic A variety of tree species are located within Princess Anne Commons due to the site's previous use as a tree nursery conditions,natural drainage patterns,and similar natural features,and should be preserved to the greatest degree possible. Natural characteristics create a sense of place on undeveloped sites that can be expanded upon during the development process. Specific Standards Please see Appendix A-Section 1 for specific requirements related to landscape plantings, irrigation,site lighting,and site furniture. Access and Circulation Curb cuts and driveways should be kept to a minimum,especially on internal, pedestrian-oriented streets.

Building placement,massing,and appearance define this relationship. Each building's architectural style,form,architectural details,exterior materials,textures,and color work together to provide an environment that ensure quality and provide a sense of place that will remain memorable. Placement on Site & Architectural Style The following provides general guidelines pertaining to the placement of buildings on a site within Princess Anne Commons for corporate,research,medical facilities,and academic buildings. Construction of all such facilities are governed by the City of Virginia Beach Zoning Ordinance and the Virginia Statewide Building Code,latest amended edition. In all cases, however,should there be a conflict between the guidelines and the Zoning Ordinance and/or the Building Code,latest amended edition,the Zoning Ordinance and/or Building Code prevail. • The general principal for building placement and architectural style is development of one-story or multi-story buildings (dependent on use),set in a landscaped environment that maintains an aesthetic continuity throughout the surrounding area. As noted in the Introduction of these Guidelines,there is a Design Vocabulary for Princess Anne Commons,and the existing buildings within the Commons stand as examples of the design style,materials,and colors to be used (see photo on next page and the photos in the Introduction). in Each designer is encouraged to express individuality and creativity while blending his or her design into the design context of the surrounding area. U The general design context should reflect a high-quality,modern corporate image. Colonial era architectural elements may be integrated into the design; however,the overall architecture of the building should not be a replication of colonial era design. U All building designs will be subject to the approval of the City (through the Proffers of the Conditional Zoning Agreement) and the City of Virginia Beach Development Authority. It is intended that the architecture and landscape create a basic harmony of design throughout Princess Anne Commons such that no building,sign,landscape,or other element of the built environment will detract from the attractiveness of the overall environment. Building Mass The following provides general guidelines that emphasize the importance of the mass,scale, and proportion of buildings on a site within Princess Anne Commons for corporate, research, medical facilities,and academic buildings. In all cases,however,should there be a conflict Page 2-7/Site Planning Design and Development Guide/Biomedical Park November 2016 between the guidelines and the City of Virginia Beach Zoning Ordinance and/or the Virginia Statewide Building Code,latest amended edition,the Zoning Ordinance and/or Building Code prevail. • How the mass of a building is distributed on a site usually has the greatest impact on a project's overall appearance and its relationship to the surrounding area. As demonstrated by the building shown in the photograph below,breaking the footprint of a large building into smaller parts and varying a building's height is a valuable concept when designing large projects. i ii - di ii ri °* i it .

It is the well-balanced variety of building massing and textures of shadow,light,and material that, in total,add to the richness of Princess Anne Commons built environment. Building Facade iii Facades of buildings that face the street should incorporate cornices,expression of structural or architectural bays,recessed windows or doors,material or material module changes,color and/or texture differences,or strongly expressed mullions. Page 2-8/Site Planning Design and Development Guide/Biomedical Park November 2016 • As an example,the photograph below is of a building in a modern style with various components that integrate principles of sustainability into the overall design.While the style and integration of sustainability principles contributed to the large expanse of the façade,there are subtle changes that provide visual interest from an external perspective: • The rectangular grid pattern created by alternating the metal panels; • The triangular projection in the center of the façade (shown in the lower left of the photograph); and • The rectangular windows of the same size as the metal panels set into the façade at what appears from outside the building to be . f random locations. - 4 fI ff ' vir ; \ 1 is All sides of a building should have continuity of design. No side should be unimproved. All architectural details,such as roof lines and parapets,should continue around all sides of a structure. Exterior Materials and Colors al Buildings should be of long-lived and sustainable materials,including brick, stone,tinted and textured concrete masonry,and glass. EIFS should not be Page 2-9/Site Planning Design and Development Guide/Biomedical Park November 2016 used below the first-floor elevation except when used as soffits.The material palette should provide variety,reinforce massing and changes in the horizontal or vertical plane. III An identifiable break should be provided r1:1 between a building's ground or second - - . - 'i floor and the upper floors.This break may P': - -* ', itkt consist of a change in material, change in _ . . r - �' fenestration,or similar means.As shown ':sti; in the photograph to the right,the pre-cast �'" ,s block and cornice around the windows , provide such a break. Y t._ b .�... mod• it al Colors,materials,and finishes should be coordinated in a consistent manner on all elevations. s v a JO 14 In order to maintain aesthetic continuity - 1.21/1 within Princess Anne Commons,bright primary colors should not be used except ► ', rr • in limited use for building accents,such as [ t(sry i . '. entry doors or trim. -k 1 F The bright blue band above the first floor arcade level of this building shows an appropriate use of a bright z primary color as an accent.

Access to these areas j y,� e should be minimized and arranged so that maneuvering is avoided on public streets. A vertical clearance of at least 14 feet is _ i ►t i recommended. Parking Structures Traditionally,the design of parking structures takes a secondary position to the development of larger projects. Parking structures are often treated as nothing more than buildings having the sole function of providing a place for people to park their cars and not as an integral part of the design fabric of the locale. The following guidelines are for those instances when a parking garage is deemed the best parking solution.The guidelines are intended to encourage parking structures that will be integrated into the desired design fabric of Princess Anne Commons,so that ultimately,parking structures will be viewed as long-term,quality amenities to the city and not as utilitarian 'quick-fixes' for a parking problem.

OTYPICAL BUILDING ENTRY DRIVES Page 2-21/Appendix A Design and Development Guide/Biomedical Park November 2016 Transition Area/Interfacility Traffic Area Citizens Advisory Committee March 31,2023 Virginia Beach City Council Building 1,City Hall 3401 Courthouse Drive Virginia Beach,VA 23456 Dear Mayor Dyer,Vice Mayor Wilson,and Virginia Beach City Council Members, At the March 30,2023,Transition Area/Interfacility Traffic Area Citizens Advisory Committee(TA/ITA CAC)meeting,the Virginia Beach Development Authority(VBDA) presented design and development guideline changes to the Princess Anne Commons Biomedical Park. The proposed changes reflect design and development guidelines for what is proposed to be called Innovation Park.After carefully reviewing the plan and red- lined changes, our committee has concerns regarding the direction of past and future commercial development. Based on the information provided at this meeting,the TA/ITA CAC determined that the guideline changes: • Fail to preserve the integrity of the remaining area,* • Fail to define the intent of the site, • Increase density due to soil types and stormwater guidelines versus considering the ITA Study that looked at the land, its capabilities,and the cumulative impact of development,thus outright ignoring the knowledge gained, • Furthermore,the TA/ITA CAC has concerns about the transparency of what will come of the property. The TA/ITA CAC is disappointed with the lack of vision and the willingness to abandon previous guidelines that protected the view shed on Princess Anne Road.We are concerned about the lack of transparency and the message this revised plan sends our citizens.If,at first,we don't succeed, sell out to the first person that comes along despite our vision. This plan is not honest. It hides behind a clever title and lowers the standard. Sincerely yours, Lisa Hartman Chairperson TA/ITA CAC *Specific flaws in the revised guidelines: • The proposed design specs for Innovation Park should be narrower,as stated in the current standards,to avoid adding buildings with unsightly aesthetic standards based on their industrial need. • The name and sought-after tenancy change from a specific high-end use,Biotech,to a vaguely named Innovation Park,where innovation itself is not a criterion for occupancy.This is misleading and not in the best interest of VB. • The proposed Innovation Park design criteria will attract low-end users,most likely industrial. • Biotech Park included a specific site/master plan designed as a suburban office campus with multiple buildings varying in height. However,the proposed Innovation Park has no site/master plan leaving the ultimate desired look undefined. • This land is in a high water table area. The proposed Innovation Park impermeable surface areas need to adequately consider VB water runoff concerns,which will negatively impact existing properties such as the city-owned VB National Golf Course,already experiencing drainage problems from recent neighboring developments. • If VB is"running out of land,"why should we be anxious to lower our standards to attract fewer higher-wage desirable jobs? VB is at a historically low unemployment rate. The City's goal should be to attract good-paying jobs to encourage VB families to stay, grow,and prosper in VB. Can opportunities to redevelop be considered? Should we look to land within ACUIZ that cannot be developed for residential? • While the Acoustic Steel building is already in place, it is sufficiently removed from the remaining Biotech Park area not to impact the desirability of a suburban office campus. Department of Economic Development Responses to Feedback Received from the TA/ITA CAC to Date Re: Modification of Proffers Application to Amend the Design and Development Guidelines for the Innovation Park (2023-PCCC-00006) May 22, 2023 1. The proposed design specs for Innovation Park should be narrower, as stated in the current standards, to avoid adding buildings with unsightly aesthetic standards based on their industrial need. The following design specifications are the majority of the additional design standards proposed to be added to the design guidelines: Fencing standards, Signage standards, Outdoor storage, staging and service areas. Without these additional standards it will be difficult to achieve an acceptable result for every type of development that comes to the Park. The primary reason for the proposed design guidelines is to include that extra guidance and provide clarity of what is expected for any development type that is permitted under current zoning in the Innovation Park. Additional language and standards have been added to proposed design guidelines since the TA/ITA committee last received a briefing on May 4th to further preserve the Princess Anne corridor viewshed and ensure a high-level of building aesthetic is achieved, see comment response#8. 2. The name and sought-after tenancy change from a specific high-end use, Biotech, to a vaguely named Innovation Park, where innovation itself is not a criterion for occupancy. This is misleading and not in the best interest of VB. The Innovation Park name was changed by the City of Virginia Beach Development Authority and City of Virginia Beach leadership through the Capital Improvement Program in 2019. The Design and Development Guidelines for the Park can be modified should the Authority and City leadership choose to change the name. 3. The proposed Innovation Park design criteria will attract low-end users, most likely industrial. The current and proposed Design and Development Guidelines are not a business attraction tools. The document's purpose is to provide guidance on site and building design for any type of development under the current 1-1 zoning within the Park. The 1 intended audience of the document,for instance, is City staff who review development proposals and the architecture and engineering community who design them. Regardless of whether the proposed Design and Development Guidelines are adopted by City Council, industrial interest in the Park will continue. Industrial real estate in Hampton Roads is at a less that 1% vacancy rate and is the most common request received by the City of Virginia Beach Department of Economic Development. The Department has targeted advanced manufacturing specifically within the industrial market. Advanced manufacturing uses innovative technologies, like automation and robotics, to create or improve products or processes. Advanced manufacturing currently employs more than 54,000 skilled workers in the Virginia Beach metropolitan service area in industries like offshore wind and defense, and offers high paying salaries. A sampling of advanced manufacturing positions and salaries in Virginia Beach are as follows: • Industrial Production Managers—$121,390 • Manufacturing Engineers—$85,000 • Structural Engineers—$81,892 • Entry Level Engineers—$61,455 • Logistician—$96,114 4. Biotech Park included a specific site/master plan designed as a suburban office campus with multiple buildings varying in height. However, the proposed Innovation Park has no site/master plan leaving the ultimate desired look undefined. The conceptual plans and renderings of the Biotech Park as found in the Interfacility Traffic Area Plan were designed to be illustrative in nature and were not intended to show the ultimate build out of the Park. In drafting the amended guidelines, staff included elements such as landscaping, outdoor amenity space, building massing, and lighting that will contribute to the overall creation of a campus style development without showing a hypothetical master development plan to represent what might be developed there. 2 5. This land is in a high water table area. The proposed Innovation Park impermeable surface areas need to adequately consider VB water runoff concerns, which will negatively impact existing properties such as the city-owned VB National Golf Course, already experiencing drainage problems from recent neighboring developments. Any development within the Innovation Park must conform to the City's current stormwater management requirements, as amended. Conformance with the City's stormwater management standards will be reviewed during the site plan review process for each development. All development must account for the unique geologic and hydraulic characteristics of each site and will not be permitted to overburden the drainage systems of any of the surrounding properties. 6. If VB is "running out of land," why should we be anxious to lower our standards to attract fewer higher-wage desirable jobs? VB is at a historically low unemployment rate. The City's goal should be to attract good-paying jobs to encourage VB families to stay, grow, and prosper in VB. Can opportunities to redevelop be considered? Should we look to land within ACUIZ that cannot be developed for residential? The City of Virginia Beach was once a fast-growing suburban-style community, driven largely by US military installations, tourism and agriculture. The City is currently facing a dwindling supply of developable real estate and flat population growth. While defense, tourism and agriculture will continue to the be the pillars of the City's economy,further economic diversification must dccur in order to maintain the lowest real estate tax rate in the region and high-quality of life into the future. The Department of Economic Development is the entity charged with growing the City's tax base and expanding employment opportunities for residents. Guided by this mission and City Council's strategic goals, it is actively pursuing redevelopment opportunities such as a prospective high-rise mixed-used redevelopment of the former Circuit City building on Independence Blvd. in Town Center as well as participating in the redevelopment of the Pembroke Mall. The Department is also pursuing opportunities with NAS Oceana to identify, market and develop underutilized land in and around the installation for new compatible development. 3 Uses that would be compatible include data centers, energy storage facilities and warehousing. 7. While the Acoustic Steel building is already in place, it is sufficiently removed from the remaining Biotech Park area not to impact the desirability of a suburban office campus. While office building development is still possible in the Innovation Park, market vacancy rates are around 8%in Hampton Roads with little to no demand in Virginia Beach for new office building construction at the present time. 8. It's of it most importance that view shed is protected as intended by the PA Corridor study and others. Acoustic Sheetmetal is an eyesore and more efforts should have been made to preserve that view shed. That cannot happen again. Proper setbacks and disguising landscaping should be used to preserve the view as intended in our publicly vetted and adopted documents state. While this issue is design guidelines, I think it would be prudent for planning to restate intent of use to attempt to regain the trust of the citizens who bought into the Biopark and now feel duped. Also building design, no warehouse box buildings.

SESSOMS [Applicants & Property Owners] Change in Nonconformity (Expansion of dwelling) for the property located at 109 43rd Street (GPIN 2418963673). COUNCIL DISTRICT 6 MEETING DATE: June 6, 2023 • Background: The applicants are requesting a Change in Nonconformity to expand their dwelling at 109 43rd Street. The house, which was constructed in 1935 as part of the Cavalier Shores neighborhood, predates the adoption of a Zoning Ordinance in Virginia Beach. The property has two dwellings: a single-family dwelling and an attached apartment that was historically used as a servant's residence. The two dwellings are nonconforming as the R-7.5 Residential Zoning District only permits one dwelling per property. Additionally, the property has deficient front and side yard setbacks. The applicants plan to renovate the existing residence by constructing a second- story addition over an existing one-story wing of the primary dwelling, expanding the kitchen at the rear of the building, and constructing a pergola at the rear as well. As part of the renovation, new siding and shutters will be installed, windows will be replaced in-kind, and the two existing brick chimneys will be repainted. • Considerations: The existing nonconformities at 109 43rd Street are commonly found throughout Cavalier Shores as the neighborhood was developed in the late 1920s and through the 1930s. While the second-story addition will be located within a deficient side yard setback, it will be completely located within the existing building footprint and will not change the separation between the building at 109 43rd Street and the property immediately adjacent to the west. The proposed expansion of the kitchen will only add 45 square feet to the building, which is a relatively nominal increase in size and does not encroach into the rear yard setback. 109 43rd Street is also a contributing resource in the Cavalier Shores Historic District, a historic district that was listed in the National Register of Historic Places in 2019. It is also listed in the local Virginia Beach Historic Register. The proposed alterations are sensitive to the historic character of the house and will not have an adverse effect on the historic district. The continued residential use of this property and the compatible design of the proposed renovation adhere to the goals of the Comprehensive Plan for residential Whitt G. Sessoms & Teresa E. Sessoms Page 2 of 2 areas such as Cavalier Shores. Three letters of support have been submitted by immediate neighbors and a conditional letter of support has been submitted by the North Virginia Beach Civic League Zoning Review Committee. Further details pertaining to the application, as well as Staff's evaluation, are provided in the attached Staff Report. There is no known opposition to this request. • Recommendation: On May 10, 2023, the Planning Commission passed a motion to recommend approval of this item on the Consent Agenda, by a recorded vote of 8-0. 1.

Sessoms Agenda Item 5 Page 1 Background & Summary of Proposal • The applicant is requesting a Change in Nonconformity in order to expand an existing dwelling on a nonconforming lot. The applicant plans to construct a second-story addition atop an existing one-story section of the house. The project will also expand the kitchen at the rear of the house by moving an exterior wall and will install a covered porch/pergola over the entrance to the rear unit. • The subject property, 109 43rd Street, is located in Cavalier Shores, a residential neighborhood that was developed in the early twentieth century. This residence was built in 1935. • Like most of the properties in Cavalier Shores, 109 43rd Street was developed prior to the adoption of any zoning ordinance in the City of Virginia Beach. There are several nonconformities associated with this property, including: o Two residential dwellings on one lot (a single-family house with an attached rear servant's residence that are separately metered) o Deficient side,front, and rear yard setbacks o Lot coverage that exceeds the maximum defined in the Zoning Ordinance for a property zoned R-7.5 Residential o Minimum lot size • The applicant's proposal to construct a second story addition and rear pergola will intensify existing encroachments into the deficient setbacks and will expand the nonconforming residence. • The proposed second-story addition will accommodate the addition of a master suite on the second story.The new room will require the addition of a cross-gable roof, altering the building's outline. An entry door on the first story will be redesigned and will have a new metal roof. Windows throughout the house are proposed to be replaced in- kind and new shutters will be installed. New siding will be installed that matches the existing siding and will be toothed in to create a seamless look. The existing brick chimneys will be repainted. • Other elements of the proposed renovation include the installation of a large window and glass door in the west wall of the rear dwelling unit, and the installation of a covered porch/pergola over the entrance to the rear unit. • Cavalier Shores is listed as a historic district in the National Register of Historic Places for its association with the historic development of the City of Virginia Beach and for its architecture.The dwellings at 109 43rd Street are identified as contributing resources in the Cavalier Shores Neighborhood Historic District.This property is also individually listed in the Virginia Beach Historical Register.

While the proposed alterations will further intensify the existing encroachment into deficient setbacks, the addition will largely be within the existing footprint of the building. In R-7.5 Residential district, minimum side yard setbacks are required to be five feet and ten feet. The existing building has an east side yard of 4.6 feet and a west side yard of 5.5 feet. Given the narrowness of the existing east side yard at 4.6 feet, this would be considered smaller setback and the west side yard at 5.5 feet, the larger setback. As such, both side yard setbacks as required in the R-7.5 Residential district are encroached upon by the existing building. To rectify this, Staff recommends Condition 4, which in part states that the new side yard setbacks would be 4.5 feet on the east side and five feet on the west side. Additionally, the minimum front yard setback is 30 feet, while the existing building is setback 17.3 feet. Recommended Condition 4 also addresses the nonconforming nature of the front yard setback.The rear yard setback required for R-7.5 Residential-zoned properties is 20 feet; the existing building meets this setback, and no deviations are requested for this dimensional standard. The alterations will intensify the existing nonconforming residence; however, overall, the increase is moderate and will have no negative effect on neighboring properties. Consideration of the property's historical and cultural significance, as shown by its inclusion in the Cavalier Shores Historic District and its listing in the Virginia Beach Historical Register, is apparent in the proposed design and materials. The proposed design is compatible with the existing historic building; it will use the same type of window sizes and window units, as well as the same siding. The chimneys, which are a character-defining feature, shall be retained and repainted. Shutters to be installed will be operable and will match ones currently installed on the house. While the pergola and the alterations to the rear servant's residence are more modern in design, they are relatively hidden from public rights-of-way and will have a minimal impact on the building's overall character, design, feeling, and setting. The proposed roof feature above the new entry door on the south elevation differs from an existing gable roof on the east elevation; however, similar features are located elsewhere in Cavalier Shores, and the overall impact of these alterations will not adversely affect this property's historical integrity. For these reasons, Staff recommends approval of the request subject to the conditions and exhibits below. Whitt G. Sessoms, Ill &Teresa E. Sessoms Agenda Item 5 Page 3 Recommended Conditions 1. Except as modified by any condition below, or as necessary to meet City Development Ordinances and Standards, the Site shall be developed substantially in accordance with the concept site layout entitled "Physical Survey Lot 17 Cavalier Shores," prepared by Gallup Surveyors and Engineers and is on file in the Department of Planning and Community Development. 2. Except as modified by any condition below, or as necessary to meet City Development Ordinances and Standards, the Site shall be developed substantially in accordance with the concept renderings exhibited to Planning Commission and City Council and are on file in the Department of Planning and Community Development. 3. The maximum number of dwelling units on the subject Site shall not exceed two (2). 4. The minimum front yard setback shall be 17 feet.The minim side yard setbacks shall be 4.5 feet in the east side yard and 5 feet in the west side yard. 5. Any variation to the proposed building materials as described in the Staff Report dated May 10, 2023 may be considered subject to the review and approval of the Director of Planning and Community Development. Further conditions may be required during the administration of applicable City Ordinances and Standards. Any site plan submitted with this application may require revision during detailed site plan review to meet all applicable City Codes and Standards. All applicable permits required by the City Code, including those administered by the Department of Planning/Development Services Center and Department of Planning/Permits and Inspections Division, and the issuance of a Certificate of Occupancy, are required before any approvals allowed by this application are valid. The applicant is encouraged to contact and work with the Crime Prevention Office within the Police Department for crime prevention techniques and Crime Prevention Through Environmental Design (CPTED)concepts and strategies as they pertain to this site. Comprehensive Plan Recommendations This site is located in the Suburban Area of the city. A guiding principle of the Suburban Area is to protect and enhance buildings of cultural and historic significance. Proposed designs and materials should complement the existing structure and surrounding area, as well as preserve character-defining features.This change does not appear to increase the nonconformity in a substantial way and would be supported by the Comprehensive Plan. Natural & Cultural Resources Impacts The site is located in the Atlantic Ocean Watershed. The house at 109 43rd Street is a contributing resource in the Cavalier Shores National Register Historic District. Additionally, the house is individually listed in the Virginia Beach Historical Register. Whitt G. Sessoms, Ill &Teresa E.

COUNCIL DISTRICT 9 MEETING DATE: June 6, 2023 • Background: This is a request to modify the conditions of a Conditional Use Permit to operate a motor vehicles sales and rentals business approved by City Council on July 6, 2021. The applicant proposes to modify the approved conceptual site plan to construct a 1,950 square foot building on this 37,730 square foot B-2 Community Business zoned parcel. The proposed 1,950 square foot gray metal fabricated building will be 14 feet in height and located behind an existing six-foot tall wood privacy fence at the rear of the property. The building will be used to store maintenance supplies as well as provide a safe space to store motorcycles and high-end vehicles overnight. The applicant also intends to use the building to clean and prep vehicles during inclement weather. Typical hours of operation will remain as 9:00 a.m. to 6:00 p.m., Monday through Saturday with up to four employees on the property during regular business hours. • Considerations: The site meets the requirements set forth in Section 239 of the Zoning Ordinance for Motor Vehicles Sales and Rentals. In Staffs view and the Planning Commission concurred, the proposal is compatible with existing uses along this section of Haygood Road and is in keeping with the policies and goals set forth in the Comprehensive Plan for the Suburban area. Although the layout does not align with the Special Area Development Guidelines for the Suburban Area which calls for access points to be consolidated and buildings to be located towards the front of a parcel with parking located at the rear of the site, since the building and parking area is existing, Staff and the Planning Commission are supportive of the proposed modification. The proposal is not immediately adjacent to residential uses and will provide a service to the community. 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.

Since the proposed 1,950 square foot storage building was not shown on that plan, a Modification of Conditions application is required. • The existing six-foot tall wood privacy fence screens the entire rear yard which includes the employee parking area, a mechanical building, vehicle prep area, and dumpster. • The 1,950 square foot gray metal fabricated building will be placed in the rear of the site and will match the color of the existing buildings on site. • The proposed building will be used to store maintenance supplies such as power washers, shampoo machines, lawn equipment, ladders and spare parts as well as provide a safe space to store motorcycles and high-end vehicles overnight. The applicant also intends to use the building to clean and prep vehicles during inclement weather. • Typical hours of operation are 9:00 a.m. to 6:00 p.m., Monday through Saturday.There will be up to four employees on the property during regular business hours.

The request is consistent with the policies and goals set forth in the Comprehensive Plan for the Suburban Area, as the auto sales business provides a service to the surrounding area and is compatible with the number of automobile related service uses along this section of Haygood Road. Although the layout does not align with the Special Area Development Guidelines for the Suburban Area which Commonwealth Auto Group, Inc Agenda Item 4 Page 2 calls for access points to be consolidated and buildings to be located towards the front of a parcel with parking located at the rear of the site, since the building and parking area is existing, staff is supportive of the proposed modification. The Conceptual Site Plan, previously approved by City Council, will change slightly to construct the proposed 1,950 storage building in the rear of the site. As mentioned previously, the building will be used for storage of maintenance equipment, motorcycles and high-end vehicles, and for the prepping and cleaning of vehicles during inclement weather. In Staff's opinion, the installation of the storage building will eliminate the visibility of equipment stored on the site and will provide shelter for employees when preparing vehicles that have been sold. For these reasons, Staff does not anticipate any adverse impacts to surrounding properties and recommends approval of this request subject to the conditions listed below. Recommended Conditions 1. All conditions attached to the previous Conditional Use Permit granted on July 6, 2021, are hereby deleted, and superseded by the following conditions. 2.

FRANCIS EPISCOPAL CHURCH [Property Owner] Conditional Use Permit (Open-Air Market) for the property located at 509 S Rosemont Road (GPIN 1486680782). COUNCIL DISTRICT 3 MEETING DATE: June 6, 2023 • Background: The applicant is requesting a Conditional Use Permit to operate an Open-Air Market at 509 S Rosemont Road. The applicant plans to host a farmers market on the first and third Saturdays of the month between April and November. The market will host local vendors of produce, baked goods, and crafts. Up to three food trucks will also be available during market hours. The food trucks will be located on the property in the existing parking lot. The farmers market will be open from 11:00 a.m. to 2:00 p.m., with set up times beginning at 9:30 a.m. and take down times ending at 3:00 p.m. Amplified music will be played during the market's operating hours. • Considerations: The property is located in the Suburban Area of the city as defined by the Comprehensive Plan. Goals and recommendations for the Suburban Area call for the development of complementary non-residential uses to support Great Neighborhoods. An Open-Air Market as the applicant intends to host will provide surrounding residents with a local option for produce, baked goods, and crafts and will support local farmers and craftspeople. The property itself is located at the southwest corner of the intersection of S Rosemont Road and Kings Point Road. Properties immediately adjacent to the subject parcel include a public park and retention pond, so while the property is opposite residences on Kings Point Road, there will be minimal impact to residential properties. There are 66 parking spaces available on site and it is anticipated that local community members will opt to walk or bicycle to the market. Low traffic impacts are expected. 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.

The property is within the Suburban Area of the city as identified in the Comprehensive Plan. Recommendations for the Suburban Area include complementary non-residential uses that contribute to the day-to-day life of residents and support thriving, resilient residential neighborhoods.The applicant's proposal will have limited hours of operation, will support local vendors, and will provide opportunities for community interaction.The market will operate two times a month for eight months out of the year and will be confined to the property. While outdoor music will be played, it will only occur during market hours (11:00 a.m. until 2:00 p.m.). Gigglemug Market, LLC Agenda Item 8 Page 2 Staff is of the opinion that this Open-Air Market will provide added value to the surrounding neighborhoods with minimal negative impacts.The property where the market will be operated is on a corner adjacent to a busy thoroughfare and shares a boundary with a neighborhood park. Vendors will be located in the side yard adjacent to S. Rosemont Road and Kings Point Road and will not be situated directly next to any residences allowing the existing 66 parking spaces to remain available for patrons while creating some buffer between the market and residences. Analyses completed by Staff indicate that no adverse traffic impacts will occur as a result of the market. While there are no generated traffic counts for Open-Air Markets, the peak number of average daily trips (ADT) for this site occurs during the week, which will be unaffected by the proposed weekend hours of the Open-Air Market. Staff anticipates that some local residents will visit the market by foot and bicycle. Given this information, Staff recommends approval of the request subject to the conditions and exhibits in this report. Recommended Conditions 1. The activities held on the site, including the location of vendors and food trucks, shall be located as depicted on the submitted layout plans that have been exhibited to the Virginia Beach City Council and are on file in the Department of Planning & Community Development. 2.

COUNCIL DISTRICT 5 MEETING DATE: June 6, 2023 • Background: The applicant is requesting a Conditional Use Permit to operate a Family Day-Care Home for up to eight children within her single-family dwelling in the Ocean Lakes neighborhood. A Family Day-Care Home with four or less children is permitted by- right in residential districts. When the number of children cared for increases to five or more, excluding the provider's own children and those who reside in the home, both state licensure and a Conditional Use Permit are required. The 9,893 square foot parcel is zoned R-10 Residential District. The typical hours of operation are proposed as 6:30 a.m. to 5:00 p.m., Monday through Friday. • Considerations: The applicant has over 15 years of experience caring for children. The designated outdoor play area is located in the front yard and enclosed with a 4' vinyl picket fence. The play area is located in the front due to the in-ground pool located in the backyard of the property. The pool has a 4-foot safety fence surrounding it. However, to alleviate any safety concerns, staff has included a condition that all access to the rear yard of the property must be secured with a childproof safety lock. The property appears to be organized and well kept, successfully promoting the policies intended to ensure the maintenance and sustainability of great neighborhoods per the Comprehensive Plan. While the applicant intends to care for up to eight children, Staff typically recommends approval of up to 12, as it has been common for applicants to request an increase in the number of children in their care in the future, thereby requiring a modification and additional consideration by both the Planning Commission and City Council. The ultimate number, not to exceed 12, will be determined by the Commonwealth of Virginia during the childcare licensing process. Further details pertaining to the application, as well as Staff's evaluation, are provided in the attached Staff Report. There is no known opposition to this request. Kelly Pepper Page 2 of 3 ■ Recommendation: On May 10, 2023, the Planning Commission passed a motion to recommend this item on the Consent Agenda, by a recorded vote of 8-0, to recommend approval of this request. 1. The Family Day-Care Home shall only operate as an accessory use to the single-family residence. 2. The Family Day-Care Home shall be limited to a total of twelve (12) children, excluding the provider's own children and those who reside in the home. 3. The Family Day-Care Home shall have no more than one (1) additional employee/volunteer, who does not reside in the home, or on the premises at any time. 4. The arrival and departure times shall be staggered to avoid vehicular congestion. 5. There shall be only one Home Occupation, the Family Care-Day Home, operating on the property associated with this Conditional Use Permit. 6. Any sign identifying the home occupation shall be non-illuminated, not more than (1) square foot in area and mounted flat against the residence. 7. The applicant shall maintain a license with the Commonwealth of Virginia for childcare. Failure to maintain a Family Day-Care Home license will result in revocation of the Family Day-Care Home Conditional Use Permit. 8. When the Family Day-Care Home is not open for business, all play equipment associated with the daycare shall be located within the enclosed play area or enclosed privacy fence, as depicted on the Site Layout Plan. 9. The fence enclosing the outdoor play area shall remain and be maintained for the duration of the Conditional Use Permit. 10.All access to the rear yard shall be secured with a childproof lock. 11.The applicant shall obtain all necessary permits and inspections from the City of Virginia Beach. Prior to operation, the applicant shall obtain a Certificate of Occupancy from the Building Official's Office for use of the house as a Family Day-Care Home.

Kelly Pepper Agenda Item 9 Page 1 Background & Summary of Proposal • The applicant currently operates a Family Day-Care Home with less than 4 children in her 2,050 square foot home in the Ocean Lakes Subdivision, Monday-Friday from the hours of 6:30 AM to 5:00 PM. As required by the Zoning Ordinance, the applicant seeks this Conditional Use Permit to increase the maximum number of children to eight. • The pick-up and drop-off time will be staggered to avoid traffic congestion on the street and the existing driveway provides adequate parking for the proposed use. A condition is recommended to this affect. • The daycare provider has been a preschool teacher for over 15 years, with a focus on infant-toddler development. According to the applicant, the home daycare will provide care for children between the ages of 0-3 years old.

Staff finds the property to be organized and well kept, successfully promoting the policies intended to ensure the maintenance and sustainability of great neighborhoods. A Family Day-Care Home with four or less children is permitted by-right in residential districts.When the number of children cared for increases to five or more, excluding the provider's own children and those who reside in the home, both state licensure and a Conditional Use Permit are required. While the applicant intends to care for up to eight children, Staff typically recommends approval for up to 12, as allowed by State Code and has been common in the past for applicants to increase the number of children, thereby requiring a modification and additional consideration by both the Planning Commission and the City Council. While the ultimate number will be determined by the Commonwealth of Virginia during the childcare licensing process, staff recommends no more than 12 children be permitted if the Conditional Use Permit is approved. Based on the ages and number of children, the Commonwealth of Virginia will determine if an assistant is required. The applicant has been operating the Family Day-Care Home since late 2022 without any incident. During Staff site visit, Staff noted that the property is well kept and well maintained. There is an enclosed outdoor play area in the front yard and an in-ground pool in the backyard. While the pool is entirely surrounded by fencing, to help alleviate any safety Kelly Pepper Agenda Item 9 Page 2 concern, Staff is recommending a condition that access to the rear yard of the property be secured with a childproof safety lock. In Staff's view, Family Day-Care Homes provide a needed and valuable service to the community and will not be detrimental to any adjacent land uses. Based on these considerations, Staff recommends approval of this request with the conditions listed below. Recommended Conditions 1. The Family Day-Care Home shall only operate as an accessory use to the single-family residence. 2. The Family Day-Care Home shall be limited to a total of twelve (12) children, excluding the provider's own children and those who reside in the home. 3. The Family Day-Care Home shall have no more than one (1) additional employee/volunteer, who does not reside in the home, or on the premises at any time. 4. The arrival and departure times shall be staggered to avoid vehicular congestion. 5. There shall be only one Home Occupation, the Family Care-Day Home, operating on the property associated with this Conditional Use Permit. 6. Any sign identifying the home occupation shall be non-illuminated, not more than (1) square foot in area and mounted flat against the residence. 7. The applicant shall maintain a license with the Commonwealth of Virginia for childcare. Failure to maintain a Family Day Care Home license will result in revocation of the Family Day Care Home Conditional Use Permit. 8. When the Family Day-Care Home is not open for business, all play equipment associated with the daycare shall be located within the enclosed play area or enclosed privacy fence, as depicted on the Site Layout Plan. 9. The fence enclosing the outdoor play area shall remain and be maintained for the duration of the Conditional Use Permit. 10. All access to the rear yard shall be secured with a childproof lock. 11. The applicant shall obtain all necessary permits and inspections from the City of Virginia Beach. Prior to operation, the applicant shall obtain a Certificate of Occupancy from the Building Official's Office for use of the house as a Family Day-Care Home. Further conditions may be required during the administration of applicable City Ordinances and Standards.Any site plan submitted with this application may require revision during detailed site plan review to meet all applicable City Codes and Standards. All applicable permits required by the City Code, including those administered by the Department of Planning/Development Services Center and Department of Planning/Permits and Inspections Division, and the issuance of a Certificate of Occupancy, are required before any approvals allowed by this application are valid.

Kelly Pepper Agenda Item 9 Page 3 Comprehensive Plan Recommendations The Comprehensive Plan identifies this site as being located within the Suburban Area of Virginia Beach. The general planning principles for the Suburban Area focus on creating and maintaining "great neighborhoods" which are sustainable, stable, and supported by complementary non-residential uses. Achieving these goals requires that all land use activities either maintain or enhance the existing neighborhood through compatibility with surroundings, quality and attractiveness of site and buildings, improved mobility, environmental responsibility, livability, and effective buffering with respect to type, size, intensity, and relationship to the surrounding uses. Natural & Cultural Resources Impacts The site is located in the Southern Rivers Watershed. Drainage in the Southern Rivers watershed is highly impacted by the presence of high ground water, poorly draining soils, and high-water surface elevations in downstream receiving waters.There are no known cultural resources on the site.

BRAITHWAITE [Applicant & Property Owner] Conditional Use Permit (Bulk Storage Yard) for the property located at 520 Oceana Boulevard (GPIN 2416296553). COUNCIL DISTRICT 6 MEETING DATE: June 6, 2023 • Background: The applicant is requesting a Conditional Use Permit for a Bulk Storage Yard at 520 Oceana Boulevard. The 52.7 acre-property, which is zoned I-1 Light Industrial, is located immediately opposite NAS Oceana and is in the greater than 75 dB DNL noise zone and partially in the APZ-2 of the AICUZ. The applicant proposes to develop a Bulk Storage Yard on a 4.7-acre portion of her property near the south property line. The Bulk Storage Yard will be used for temporary storage of recreational vehicles (RVs), boats, trailers, and other motor vehicles. All vehicles will be in operable condition and no repairs will be undertaken on site. There will be 152 parking stalls of various lengths to accommodate different vehicles in the yard. As part of her application, the applicant is including a request for a deviation to the landscape standards for Bulk Storage Yard to omit the required Category IV plantings as there is existing mature vegetation on the property that will remain. • Considerations: The proposed Bulk Storage Yard is compatible with the high noise zone and APZ-2 of the AICUZ. It is also compatible with other uses immediately adjacent to the property, which include: a night club, agricultural fields, former borrow pits, and mini-warehouse storage facility. While there is some residential development to the south and east of the project, it is separated from the subject property by other I-1 Light Industrial-zoned property. Mature vegetation provides screening of the west, south, and east sides of the proposed Bulk Storage Yard area. Given these conditions and the character of adjacent properties, the landscape deviation request is reasonable. Condition 5 is proposed to require plantings should the existing vegetation be removed in the future. Further details pertaining to the application, as well as Staff's evaluation, are provided in the attached Staff Report. There is no known opposition to this request. Nancy G. Braithwaite Page 2 of 2 ■ Recommendation: On May 10, 2023, the Planning Commission passed a motion to recommend approval of this item on the Consent Agenda, by a recorded vote of 8-0. 1 . The site shall be developed in substantial conformance with the submitted conceptual site plan entitled "Conceptual Exhibit—Part of Property of Nancy F. Braithwaite", prepared by Gallup Surveyors & Engineers and dated Feb. 2023 and that has been exhibited to the Virginia Beach City Council and is on file with the Department of Planning & Community Development. 2. Motor vehicles to be stored in the Bulk Storage Yard shall be in operable condition. 3. No repair of motor vehicles is permitted within the Bulk Storage Yard with this approval. 4. The Bulk Storage Yard shall be enclosed with a minimum six-foot tall opaque fence on all sides of the yard. Category VI plantings along the fence are not required. This is a deviation from Section 228(a) of the Zoning Ordinance. 5. In the event that the existing mature trees along the west end of the Bulk Storage Yard are removed or in the event that existing vegetation along the south boundary of the Bulk Storage Yard is removed, minimum Category VI landscaping shall be installed to screen the Bulk Storage Yard from Oceana Boulevard and the southern adjacent property. 6. The proposed landscaping along the front of the site shall adhere to the City of Virginia Beach Landscaping Guide for street frontage landscaping 7. An approved water supply capable of supplying the required fire flow for fire protection shall be provided on site, the location of which shall be confirmed during site plan review prior to the release of the site plan. 8. An approved fire apparatus access road shall be located on site, the design and location of which shall be confirmed during site plan review prior to release of the site plan. • Attachments: Staff Report and Disclosure Statements Location Map Minutes of Planning Commission Hearing Recommended Action: Staff recommends Approval.

Braithwaite Agenda Item 7 Page 2 Evaluation & Recommendation In Staff's opinion, this request for a Conditional Use Permit for a Bulk Storage Yard is acceptable. It is an appropriate use in the I-1 Light Industrial zoning district and is compatible in both the greater than 75 dB DNL and the APZ-2 of the AICUZ.The property is additionally located in the East Oceana Special Economic Growth Area (SEGA) as designated in the Comprehensive Plan. Recommendations for this SEGA include the development of medium intensity industrial uses and similar utilitarian activities that are compatible with NAS Oceana operations.The proposed Bulk Storage Yard is in- keeping with these recommendations. In Staff's opinion, this Bulk Storage Yard will minimally affect the surrounding area. While there are some residential uses south of the property, the parcels that immediately abut 520 Oceana Boulevard are a mixture of I-1 Light Industrial and AG-1 Agriculture. Former borrow pits are located on parcels immediately north and south of the subject parcel and properties to the east are located in APZ-2. Development or redevelopment of these areas are constrained by their zoning and by their location in the high noise zone and APZ-2, uses of which are generally compatible with the proposed Bulk Storage Yard. Staff is also supportive of the requested deviation to the landscape screening requirements of Section 228(a). Mature trees that currently screen the portion of the property to be used as the Bulk Storage Yard will remain. There is also mature vegetation along the east edge of the proposed yard that will remain.The Bulk Storage Yard will be set back approximately 300 feet from Oceana Boulevard, which is the most visible viewshed of this property. Given the existing vegetation, especially the mature trees that will provide screening from Oceana Boulevard, the size of the proposed storage area, the character and uses of adjacent properties, and the setback from Oceana Boulevard, it is Staff's opinion that a minimum six-foot tall, opaque fence will sufficiently screen the yard. Visual impacts of the proposed Bulk Storage Yard on other properties will be mitigated by distance and the aforementioned vegetation. The applicant does own and reside in a nonconforming residence at 520 Oceana Boulevard and is accepting of the reduced landscape screening. A traffic analysis conduced by Staff indicates that Oceana Boulevard is presently at capacity with an average daily trip (ADT) count in 2021 of 35,300 trips.The current residential use of the property is estimated to have 10 ADT per day and an estimated 357 ADT is calculated for an I-1 Light Industrial property of this size. While no trip generation data is available for Bulk Storage Yards, this is a use that does not typically generate high traffic and typically has minimal impact on peak hour traffic. As such, Staff is confident that even though there will be an increase in trips to and from this site, traffic impacts will be manageable with current conditions. For these reasons, Staff is recommending approval of this request for a Conditional Use Permit for a Bulk Storage Yard and the deviation of landscape screening subject to the conditions and exhibits included below. Recommended Conditions 1. The site shall be developed in substantial conformance with the submitted conceptual site plan entitled "Conceptual Exhibit—Part of Property of Nancy F. Braithwaite", prepared by Gallup Surveyors & Engineers and dated Feb. 2023 and that has been exhibited to the Virginia Beach City Council and is on file with the Department of Planning & Community Development. 2. Motor vehicles to be stored in the Bulk Storage Yard shall be in operable condition. 3. No repair of motor vehicles is permitted within the Bulk Storage Yard with this approval. 4. The Bulk Storage Yard shall be enclosed with a minimum six-foot tall opaque fence on all sides of the yard. Category VI plantings along the fence are not required.This is a deviation from Section 228(a) of the Zoning Ordinance. Nancy G. Braithwaite Agenda Item 7 Page 3 5. In the event that the existing mature trees along the west end of the Bulk Storage Yard are removed or in the event that existing vegetation along the south boundary of the Bulk Storage Yard is removed, minimum Category VI landscaping shall be installed to screen the Bulk Storage Yard from Oceana Boulevard and the southern adjacent property. 6. The proposed landscaping along the front of the site shall adhere to the City of Virginia Beach Landscaping Guide for street frontage landscaping 7. An approved water supply capable of supplying the required fire flow for fire protection shall be provided on site, the location of which shall be confirmed during site plan review prior to the release of the site plan. 8. An approved fire apparatus access road shall be located on site, the design and location of which shall be confirmed during site plan review prior to release of the site plan. Further conditions may be required during the administration of applicable City Ordinances and Standards. Any site plan submitted with this application may require revision during detailed site plan review to meet all applicable City Codes and Standards. All applicable permits required by the City Code, including those administered by the Department of Planning/Development Services Center and Department of Planning/Permits and Inspections Division, and the issuance of a Certificate of Occupancy, are required before any approvals allowed by this application are valid. The applicant is encouraged to contact and work with the Crime Prevention Office within the Police Department for crime prevention techniques and Crime Prevention Through Environmental Design (CPTED)concepts and strategies as they pertain to this site. Comprehensive Plan Recommendations This proposal is located in the Suburban Area of the city, within the East Oceana Special Economic Growth Area (SEGA). The western area of this SEGA calls for medium intensity industrial uses and other utilitarian activities. This proposal would be in keeping with the recommended policies of the Comprehensive Plan. Natural & Cultural Resources Impacts The site is located in the Chesapeake Bay Watershed, however, it is located outside of the Resource Protection Area. No cultural resources will be affected by this project. Traffic Impacts Street Name Present Volume Present Capacity Generated Traffic Existing Land Use 2-10 ADT Oceana Boulevard 35,300ADT1 35,700 ADT 1(LOS a"D") Existing Land Use 3-357 ADT Proposed Land Use 4-No Data Available 'Average Daily Trips 2 as defined by a single-family 3 as defined by a 4.7 acre No information available in s LOS=Level of Service residence parcel zoned I-1 Light the ITE Trip Generation Industrial Manual for bulk storage yards Based on current trip counts, Oceana Boulevard is at capacity at level of service "D". Nancy G. Braithwaite Agenda Item 7 Page 4 Master Transportation Plan (MTP) and Capital Improvement Program (CIP) In this area,the MTP identifies Oceana Boulevard as a four-lane minor arterial with a variable right-of-way width. No roadway CIP projects are currently planned for this roadway. Public Utility Impacts Water City water is unavailable to the property. Health Department approval is required for private wells.

CITY OF VIRGINIA BEACH AGENDA ITEM f ITEM: AN ORDINANCE TO ADD ARTICLE 24 TO THE CITY ZONING ORDINANCE TO ADD THE PEMBROKE SGA OVERLAY DISTRICT — WESTERN CAMPUS AND TO AMEND SECTION 102 OF THE CITY ZONING ORDINANCE ESTABLISHING THE PEMBROKE SGA OVERLAY DISTRICT — WESTERN CAMPUS. MEETING DATE: June 6, 2023 • Background: The Western Campus District is one of six urban districts that are identified in the Pembroke Strategic Growth Area (SGA) Plan. A few of the overarching goals of the Pembroke Strategic Growth Area Plan are to: • Diversify current land uses by transitioning heavy industrial and some light industrial uses to residential, office, and commercial to meet current and future market demands • Develop a variety of housing choices, including live-work and multifamily residential buildings that can coexist with light industrial uses remaining in the long term • Build on the present urban grid to create a safe, efficient, and connected pedestrian, bicycle and vehicular network • Create more parks, urban plazas, and ecogardens that will attract investment and meet both recreational and stormwater needs. Planning Staff has received many inquiries for redevelopment within this area that would require a rezoning, which include multi-family, mixed-use, and other uses that are compatible with the Pembroke SGA Plan but are not permitted in the base district. The identified boundary of the Western Campus Overlay has multiple underlying zoning districts, including Industrial, Business, and Apartment Zoning Districts. • Considerations: The proposed Western Campus Overlay District Ordinance is an opt-in overlay district designed to encourage redevelopment at a scale that is conducive to pedestrian circulation and will serve as a relatively compact, low-to-mid-rise transitional area from the large footprint, zero lot line development pattern of the Central Business Core District. The proposed district supports a wide range of City of Virginia Beach —Western Campus Overlay District Page 2 of 2 multi-family residential, commercial, civic, institutional, and office uses that complement the economic development activity of the Strategic Growth Area. The Overlay District includes uses that are compatible with the SGA Plan: • Multi-family • Small business, retail/office • Restaurants • Craft breweries • Multi-use developments The development standards within this ordinance provide reduced setbacks and build-to zones, which allow for larger building envelopes, along with requiring parking to be located to the side or rear of the structure, which will foster pedestrian-oriented streetscapes, as encouraged in the Comprehensive Plan. Further details pertaining to the ordinance, as well as Staff's evaluation, are provided in the attached Staff Report. • Recommendation: On May 10, 2023, the Planning Commission passed a motion to recommend this item on the Consent Agenda, by a recorded vote of 8-0, to recommend approval of this request. • Attachments: Staff Report Ordinances Minutes of Planning Commission Hearing Recommended Action: Staff recommends Approval. Planning Commission recommends Approval.

Parking requirements for uses within the District may be satisfied by anyone, or a 464 combination of, the following: 465 466 1. On-site parking; 467 468 2. Off-site parking facilities, as set forth in section 901 of this ordinance; or 469 470 3. Public parking, if the Planning Director determines (i) that there are at least 471 enough public parking spaces located within the District to meet public parking 472 demands; and (ii) that the use of such public parking spaces to satisfy the 473 parking requirements of the proposed use, either wholly or partially, is warranted 474 in light of the following considerations: 475 476 I) The extent to which the proposed use advances the goals and objectives of 477 this Article; and 17 478 ill The extent to which the proposed use conforms to the Urban Design Plan 479 component of the Pembroke Strategic Growth Area Plan. 480 481 D. - SIGN REGULATIONS 482 483 Sec. 2408. - Intent; findings, establishment of special sign district. 484 485 (a) Intent. The intent of the sign regulations set forth in this section is to: 486 487 (1) Encourage signage that enhances the overall aesthetics of the Pembroke 488 Strategic Growth Area; 489 490 (2) Ensure that the public benefits derived from past and future expenditures of 491 public funds for the infrastructure improvements and beautification of the streets 492 and public spaces are protected by preventing visual clutter caused by excessive 493 or poorly placed signage 494 495 (3) Encourage signage that is reflective of the aesthetics and character of its 496 location and compatible with, and integrated into, the building's architectural 497 design and with other signs on the property; 498 499 (4) Provide incentives for high-quality signage by increasing signage allowances 500 for signs that conform to the Central Business Core District Design Guidelines; 501 and 502 503 (5) Encourage creativity by providing flexibility to utilize signage not only as a 504 means of identifying a business establishment but as a decorative feature to 505 enhance the appearance of a building as well. 506 507 (b) Findings. The City Council finds that: 508 509 (1) Signs have a strong visual impact on the character and quality of a 510 community. They are an integral part of the cityscape and, as such, can enhance 511 or detract from the City's image and character. As a prominent part of the 512 cityscape, they can attract or repel the viewer and affect the safety of vehicular 513 traffic, and their suitability helps to define the way in which a community is 514 perceived. Because the City of Virginia Beach relies on the attractiveness of the 515 Town Center area to attract tourists and commerce, aesthetic considerations are 516 directly related to economic value. Apart from economic considerations, however, 18 517 there are intangible benefits for a community in which signage is orderly and 518 attractive; 519 520 (2) The City's current sign regulations address characteristics such as the size 521 and number of signs, but generally do not address other characteristics, such as 522 design, that are equally important in promoting an attractive, urban downtown 523 area. 524 525 (3) Design standards for signage are used in many other localities that are known 526 for their attractiveness and appeal to residents and visitors alike, and have been 527 well-accepted by both businesses and the public as a means of enhancing the 528 overall appearance and prosperity of the community; and 529 530 (4) Providing incentives for businesses to display signage that conforms to 531 voluntary design guidelines is an appropriate means of encouraging those 532 businesses to use well-designed, highly attractive signs that harmonize with the 533 buildings on which they are displayed, the surrounding neighborhood, and other 534 signage in the area. 535 536 (c) Establishment of special sign district. The Pembroke Strategic Growth Area is 537 hereby declared a special sign district, in which the provisions of this section apply. 538 539 Sec 2409. - Regulations applicable to all signage. 540 541 The following regulations shall apply to all signage within the Pembroke Strategic 542 Growth Area.

Summary of Request The proposed Western Campus Overlay District Ordinance is an opt-in overlay district designed to encourage redevelopment at a scale that is conducive to pedestrian circulation and will serve as a relatively compact, low-to-mid- rise transitional area from the large footprint, zero lot line development pattern of the Central Business Core District. The proposed district supports a wide range of multi-family residential, commercial, civic, institutional, and office uses that complement the economic development activity of the Strategic Growth Area. The Western Campus District is one of six urban districts that are identified in the Pembroke Strategic Growth Area (SGA) Plan. A few of the overarching goals of the Pembroke Strategic Growth Area Plan are to: • Diversify current land uses by transitioning heavy industrial and some light industrial uses to residential, office, and commercial to meet current and future market demands • Develop a variety of housing choices, including live-work and multifamily residential buildings that can coexist with light industrial uses remaining in the long term • Build on the present urban grid to create a safe, efficient, and connected pedestrian, bicycle and vehicular network • Create more parks, urban plazas, and ecogardens that will attract investment and meet both recreational and stormwater needs. Planning Staff has received many inquiries for redevelopment within this area that would require a rezoning for the proposals, which include multifamily, mixed-use, and other uses that are compatible with the Pembroke SGA Plan but are not permitted in the base district. The identified boundary of the Western Campus Overlay has multiple underlying zoning districts, including Industrial, Business, and Apartment Zoning Districts. The Overlay District includes uses that are compatible with the SGA Plan: • Multi-family • Small business, retail/office • Restaurants • Craft breweries • Multi-use developments The development standards within this ordinance provide reduced setbacks and build-to zones, which allow for larger building envelopes, along with requiring parking to be located to the side or rear of the structure, which will foster pedestrian-oriented streetscapes, as encouraged in the Comprehensive Plan. City of Virginia Beach Agenda Item 1 Page 1 Parcels which do not opt-in to the overlay will continue to be regulated by the uses and standards of their underlying zoning district. Public Outreach Information During the drafting of this amendment staff reached out to internal and external stakeholders for input, including all Property Owners within the boundaries of the proposed district. Staff also held public outreach meetings, both virtual and in person, on March 27th and 29th, 2023. Recommendation Staff recommends approval of this Ordinance as it will result in development that is more conducive to the Pembroke Strategic Growth Area Plan. City of Virginia Beach Agenda Item 1 Page 2 Virginia Beach Planning Commission May 10, 2023, Public Meeting Agenda Item # 1 City of Virginia Beach (Applicant) Ordinance Amendment RECOMMENDED FOR APPROVAL — CONSENT Mr. Horsley: Thank you, Mr. Chairman. Today, we have nine items on our consent agenda. Item number one is the City of Virginia Beach in ordinance to amend the section 102 of the City Zoning Ordinance. I'll ask Hannah if she would come forth and read that. Ms. Sabo: I believe Brandon Hackney will be reading this item. Mr. Horsley: Okay. Mr. Hackney:Good afternoon, Chairman and Commissioners. So item one is an ordinance to amend section 102 of the City Zoning Ordinance, establishing the Pembroke SGA Overlay District Western Campus, and an ordinance to add Title 24 to the City Zoning Ordinance to add the Pembroke SGA Overlay District Western Campus. So the Western Campus Overlay District is one of six urban districts within the Pembroke SGA, plan the strategic growth area plan. This ordinance provides the option for any property owner to opt in to the overlay, which allows for uses and development standards that may not be allowed within the underlying zoning districts. So this ordinance is an opt-in, which would allow for any property owner to continue to develop in accordance with its underlying zoning districts and standards. So the purpose of this overlay district is to enhance the economic vitality and walkable character of the Pembroke SGA. Some of the proposed uses that are not allowed in those underlying zoning districts are multi-family, small business, such as retail and office, restaurants, craft breweries and multi-use developments. It should be noted that the parcels that do not wish to opt into the overlay will continue to be regulated by their underlying zoning districts. Mr. Horsley: Thank you Ms. Cuellar. So Mr. Chairman, the consent agenda consisting of item number one, number three, number four, number five, number six, seven, eight, nine, and 11 moved, they be approved on the consent agenda.

However, currently there are districts within the Floodplain Ordinance that require a freeboard of three feet, which is not compensated for in the current language of Section 202(a). • Considerations: This amendment proposes to replace the language which limits the administrative height increase to two feet with language that ties the height increase to the requirements of the Floodplain Ordinance. This proposed language would not only allow for an administrative height increase in-line with the requirements of the Floodplain Ordinance but would also ensure that any future amendment of the height requirements in the Floodplain Ordinance would not necessitate a subsequent Zoning Ordinance amendment. Further details pertaining to the ordinance, as well as Staff's evaluation, are provided in the attached Staff Report. • Recommendation: On May 10, 2023, the Planning Commission passed a motion to recommend approval of this request by a vote of 8 to 0. • Attachments: Staff Report Ordinance Minutes of Planning Commission Hearing Recommended Action: Staff recommends Approval. Planning Commission recommends Approval.

Summary of Request The purpose of this amendment is to update the language within Section 202(a) of the City Zoning Ordinance to better align with the freeboard requirements of the Floodplain Ordinance. Section 202(a) permits Staff to administratively approve single-family, duplex, and multi-family dwelling projects which exceed the height requirements for the applicable Zoning District to comply with the Floodplain Ordinance. This variance from the base district is intended to compensate for the height requirements of the Floodplain Ordinance. Currently,the Ordinance caps this height increase at two feet. Within the Floodplain Ordinance there are four floodplain districts: The A, AE, Coastal A, and VE districts. Each of these districts require a specific Freeboard height, which is the required height above the Base Flood Elevation, as determined by FEMA, needed for a project to comply with the Floodplain Ordinance. In the case of the A and AE district, the Freeboard height required is two feet.The Coastal A and VE district require a Freeboard height of three feet. Because there are districts with a Freeboard height of three feet, the current ordinance does not account for this requirement as it is capped at 2 feet.This ordinance amendment will change the language of the text to align with the requirements of the Floodplain Ordinance and would not need to be amended in the future should the Floodplain Ordinance Freeboard requirements be altered. Recommendation Staff recommends approval of this Ordinance as it will result in a more flexible language which is better aligned with the requirements of the Floodplain Ordinance. City of Virginia Beach Agenda Item 2 Page 1 Virginia Beach Planning Commission May 10, 2023, Public Meeting Agenda Item # 2 City of Virginia Beach (Applicant) Ordinance Amendment RECOMMENDED FOR APPROVAL Madam Clerk: Agenda item two, the City of Virginia Beach. An ordinance to amend section 202 of the City Zoning Ordinance pertaining to flood zone height requirements. Eddie Bourdon wants to speak on this item. Mr. Bourdon: I'm sorry, this was pulled from consent. I just had a comment. I'm totally in favor of what is proposed today, but from looking at things historically, I think it's important and I hope the planning commission may take this up. The city staff recommended at least a decade ago that the Freeboard, which is a City controlled determination, be increased to three feet in all flood zones, and then since then, there was no height change at that time, and because there was no height change provision in the, with that, it was put back down to two feet versus three because the builders and developers and everybody else, you know, didn't think it was equitable to go a whole full three feet. Now with this change and with the HGLs which we didn't have before, we've got a very complex regulatory system that's easy to make mistakes because the HGL elevation trumps the Freeboard in certain of the sub district areas under our floodplain, not our floodplain, our stormwater ordinance. So my point here is that, all the flood hazard zones should, in my view, have a three foot Freeboard rather than have it, you know, mix and match because you already have the unpredictability of the HGL elevation. So we're just, we are adding complication after complication. This isn't adding complication. This is actually a part of simplifying the process and I would hope that we can look at putting a three foot Freeboard in all of the flood zones rather than a two in some and a three in another. Thank you. Mr. Alcaraz: Thank you. Mr. Bourdon. If I may ask either, does administrator or the or legal advice, what's your comment on that? Ms. Sabo: I will say that Council through the last few years has made a number of changes to the flood plan requirements and that this amendment does not change what the Freeboard requirements are for any of the districts. It's simply as Eddie said, makes it simpler to comply with those requirements and then makes it so the zoning ordinance is in line with those flood plan requirements. Mr. Alcaraz: So making it three foot wouldn't benefit across the board? Ms. Sabo: That would definitely be something that staff could consider changing, the Freeboard requirements across the city. My understanding is there was a lot of discussion during the last change to the flood zone requirements between the development community and then staff and balancing, you know, the needs for flood mitigation as well as the development desires. So that's where the current Freeboard requirements came from. Mr. Alcaraz: Ms. Wilson, may I ask you please? Ms. Wilson: Yes, I completely agree with Ms. Hannah. I feel like this revision is something that brings a little more fairness in, if you were building to, you had to have three feet of Freeboard say, than you could only go up two feet. So you lost a foot, but we're trying to make it more evenly applicable and fairer and so I think in order to change the Freeboard requirements, what we really need to do is go back and look at the flood plan ordinance holistically and that'll take us a while but that's something we can do immediately. Mr. Alcaraz: Okay. Thank you. All right. Are there any questions or comments Commissioners? None. Do I have a motion? Mr. Horsley: Mr. Chairman, I make a motion that we approve the item number two. Mr. Alcaraz: All right. I have a motion by Mr. Horsley. Mr. Parks: Second. Mr. Alcaraz: Second by Mr. Parks. Madam Clerk: The vote is open. By a vote of eight to zero, the item has been recommended for approval.

MEETING DATE: June 6, 2023 • Background: The purpose of this amendment is to update the Reference Handbook of the Comprehensive Plan, 2016, to incorporate by reference the recently developed Flood Resiliency Toolkit and Commercial Area Pattern Book. The Flood Resiliency Toolkit provides guidance, flood resiliency strategies, and best practices for residents and homeowners to improve resiliency against flooding at their homes and within their communities. The toolkit includes low, medium, and high investment recommendations to provide residents with a variety of options to increase the resiliency of their home and property. Recommendations range from storing valuables above the base flood elevation, incorporating rain gardens or rain barrels, and elevating the home. The Commercial Area Pattern Book provides step-by-step visualizations for phased redevelopment of existing suburban commercial sites and aims to make the redevelopment process more predictable for both community members and developers. The Pattern Book is intended to be a conversation starter between communities, developers, and planning staff in the early stages of redevelopment. • Considerations: These documents are designed to improve the quality of life and increase community resilience by providing guidance to address flood mitigation, recreation, beautification, accessibility, and connectivity while maintaining compatibility with existing residential communities in Virginia Beach. The Bayfront Advisory Commission voted to support the adoption of the Commercial Area Pattern Book at their April 20, 2023, meeting.

This research is focused on the primary study area of the Bow Creek neighborhood as a prototypical case study to develop guidelines for homeowners and communities across the SGA, Suburban, and Suburban-transition areas mapped on page 3. Bow Creek was selected as the primary study area because development patterns and flooding issues in the area are similar to many communities throughout Virginia Beach. Because of these similarities,these guidelines and best practices can be followed in any residential area of Virginia Beach. Bow Creek Area Flood Resiliency Toolkit This document will provide guidance,flood resiliency strategies and best practices for residents of existing homes in the Bow Creek area and can be applied to homes and neighborhoods across Virginia Beach. Opportunities for integrating stormwater management facilities will be identified while simultaneously addressing flood mitigation, passive and active recreation, beautification, neighborhood accessibility and connectivity. It will illustrate streetscape design concepts that support and enhance vehicular and non- vehicular transportation. The primary goal of this toolkit is to promote community resiliency and adapt to the changing environment by supporting sustainability while improving the overall health, safety, and welfare of the community. Goals and Objectives Quality of Life • Development that supports high-quality and diverse lifestyles • Create new opportunities to live,work, and play in every citizen's neighborhood of choice • Improve connectivity for all modes of travel Community Resiliency • Adapt to a changing environment • Support environmental and neighborhood sustainability • Improve the overall health, safety, and welfare of the community 2 City of Virginia Beach INTRODUCTION Purpose of the Toolkit a $ ' a N O i 1 iii‘ - \ J, `ram}��_, '-_° _Air--g--may ' t 2.-- 4-- ,, 4 ---- ( . , , ` _'` ,;4,;ii ., "(r fit.. ,� jjj�� i_ Pima d Area— ,:' t ''\ ,.

Oberndorf Central Library and was an opportunity for City Staff and the WPA team to brief members of the public about the scope of the project, previous experience in drafting similar guidelines and pattern books. Members of the community were encouraged and instructed how to join upcoming focus group meetings in order to gather further valuable information from the residents and business owners. A short Q&A session was held, primarily clarifying the scope and purpose of the project as well as addressing immediate concerns and inaccurate information about the details of the project which had been spread through social media posts. Participants both online and in person were given the opportunity to provide feedback in the form of a survey with questions posed during the presentation as well as volunteer to be members of the future focus groups. Focus Group#1 Meeting- Bow Creek Area Resiliency Toolkit-March 24,2022 Several members of the Bow Creek residential community, business owners, planning commission members, staff from the City of Virginia Beach and members of the WPA project team met as a group at the Virginia Beach Planning and Community Development office building on the evening of Thursday March 24th. During a presentation from the team explaining the project,the seven focus group members and two planning commissioners participated in an open dialogue focusing on existing conditions within the primary study area in Bow Creek, key aspects of how the group viewed connections to the surrounding commercial areas and future development within them.The group also discussed different types of resiliency and steps that can be taken to mitigate flooding. Focus Group#2 Meeting-Suburban/Commercial Area Pattern Book- March 31,2022 Civic league members, Planning Commission members, members of the business community,along with staff from the City of Virginia Beach met with the WPA team on the evening of Thursday March 31st as the second focus group assembled for this project. The primary focus of this group was the Suburban and Commercial areas and developing a pattern book for future development and growth in these areas. During a short presentation and open discussion,the WPA team explained how aspects of previous pattern books were developed and implemented in other areas similar to the ones being focused on for this project.The four focus group members, including business and property owners, and two Planning Commissioners participated in a dialogue and Q&A for just over an hour talking about their experiences and visions for these areas as well as what they'd like to see in the updated guidelines. Combined Focus Group Meeting to Discuss Pattern Book/Toolkit Concepts-June 22,2022 Focus Group#1 and#2 invitees, along with staff from the City of Virginia Beach, met with the WPA team on Wednesday evening,June 22nd. The primary focus of this group was the Suburban and Commercial areas.The group developed a set of concepts for design based on the overlap of values shared between the residential community and the commercial development industry.

'�1 j 1 6 City of Virginia Beach PAGE INTENTIONALLY LEFT BLANK SECTION 2 Bow Creek Neighborhoods and Stormwater Park The Bow Creek area has a number of large,established neighborhoods throughout in close proximity to major interstates and convenient north-south connector roads.The area has the benefit of close proximity to the largest park in the city,Mt.Trashmore, to the west and one of the largest shopping malls in the area,Lynnhaven Mall,to the east. Holland Road to the south of the Bow Creek area has a number of large-size commercial shopping centers with a substantial amount of impervious asphalt parking lots. These areas along Holland Road are higher in elevation in relation to the neighborhoods within the Bow Creek area and in their current state and configurations could likely be adding to the issues of flooding. One substantial improvement currently under construction is the Bow Creek Stormwater park. According to the City of Virginia Beach: "Bow Creek Storm water Park will benefit Windsor Woods, Princess Anne Plaza,and The Lakes neighborhoods. These neighborhoods are located in what was once the undeveloped headwaters of the Lynnhaven River.According to aerial photos from 1949, the area was originally forest surrounded by farmland. Much of the area has relatively low elevations. Low elevations,coupled with increasing sea levels(approximately one foot over the last 50 years)and the increasing frequency of storms with significant tides and rainfall amounts,have resulted in severe flooding of the neighborhood during extreme events." Potential solutions include: • Construction of barriers and gates to minimize tidal flooding • Construction of stormwater pump stations • Additional stormwater storage capacity • Increasing the conveyance capacity of the stormwater pipes LEGEND y CLUB H0 i PLAN LEGEND 0 PIER USE ROAD r 4 0 OVERLOOK w 1. t ;'':; -. /:�� r_- Permanent Water Level ' ' ' Primary Mountain Bike Trail 0 EVENT LAWN 4 �' _ ® NATURE TRAIL 5 -11. ,� =! 3 Property Line Technical Mountain Bike BOARDWALK �¢ • + 3 ''' +.

"Flood[damage]-resistant material"is defined by the NFIP as"any building product[material,component or systemjcapable of withstanding direct and prolonged contact with floodwaters without sustaining significant damage."The term"prolonged contact"means at least 72 hours, and the term"significant damage"means any damage requiring more than cosmetic repair."Cosmetic repair"includes cleaning,sanitizing, and resurfacing(e.g.,sanding,repair of joints,re-painting)of the material.The cost of cosmetic repair should also be less than the cost of replacement of affected materials and systems. In addition to these requirements,individual materials that are considered flood damage- resistant must not cause degradation of adjacent materials or the systems of which the material is a part. Retrofitting or Remodeling-When retrofitting or remodeling any aspect of your home,you should take every possible hazard into consideration but primarily focus on those that are a greater risk.For most homes in the Hampton Roads area,flooding and wind damage should be heavily considered.Improvements made to your home in order to increase resistance to the effects of natural hazards should focus on those items that will potentially give you the largest benefit in return. As mentioned above,you should check your flood insurance policy prior to doing any work to your home if it includes materials below the BFE. The following list includes some materials to consider when performing any level of remodeling or retrofitting on your home. It .

The goals of the City's adopted complete streets policy include: • Consider all users in all aspects of the project development process for surface transportation. • Match and balance roadway functions with user needs,both at the roadway segment level and as part of the larger transportation networks. • Develop the public rights-of-way in harmony with the adjacent land uses. • Develop an attractive and sustainable transportation system. • Promote public health by supporting healthy lifestyle choices and improved air quality. • Promote safety and accident reduction. • Increase the economic value of business districts and neighborhoods. z .. i 4 .'114 ' 1 P. y • w ' r .�y,� Iu 1.

Bow Creek was selected as the primary study area because development patterns and flooding issues in the area are similar to many communities throughout the Suburban areas of Virginia Beach. Because of these similar development patterns,these guidelines can be followed and tailored to commercial areas across the Suburban and Suburban-commercial transition areas mapped on page 3. This pattern book provides a step-by-step visualization for redevelopment of existing commercial sites that is compatible with adjacent neighborhoods and stated community goals.Additionally,this document also provides typical illustrations for improving stormwater management as well as pedestrian connectivity and accessibility between commercial and residential areas. Who is this Pattern Book For? This pattern book is intended to be used as a conversation-starter between communities, developers, and Planning Staff in the early stages of the development/redevelopment process. It has been created by incorporating information from public input events and stakeholder groups in the study area communities, allowing developers to have a better understanding of what the neighborhoods and communities are looking for in order to make the overall development process more predictable. The Pattern Book should be used by property owners and developers,citizens and citizen groups, Design Review Committees, Planning Commission, City Council, and City Staff when planning or reviewing proposed developments within the primary study areas in this book, as well as other Suburban Areas in Virginia Beach. Goals and Objectives: Quality of Life • New development that supports high-quality and diverse lifestyles • Create new opportunities to live,work,and play in every citizen's neighborhood of choice • Improve multimodal connectivity between residential and commercial areas Community Resiliency • Provide strategies and techniques to help adapt to changing the environment • Support environmentally sustainable design and development • Improve the overall health,safety,and welfare of the community 2 City of Virginia Beach i 1 ----4(\ , 4 i g r',l''i 4 t;'."-k - '--7: --- t / , d ,, -‘7''1- 11°* ' ♦ L `. a -'.I may: r ' ' 'IK ' :a— , 4k, ; , , , .ir " ,--L___ _ i _ P c .ti •- ,fir z .z> ': Parks&Recreation yam. /�. __ Suburban Areas �' I _ Suburban Focus Areas ,'‘• ' Strategic Growth Areas w AJ - Green Line Bow Creek Primary Study Area -P: __ _ \ _ RGINIAB: i i LYNNMA R 1.

It was important to talk with '� users of every level which include: • Property owners • Residents • Business owners • City of Virginia Beach staff in various departments, Open House meeting with City of Virginia Beach staff to review focus group results and pattern bookitoolkit concepts including those working on the new Bow Creek Resilience Park project To address each of these groups, a multi-day, multi-part engagement process was developed: City of Virginia Beach Department of Planning staff presented the goals and objectives of the project, introduced the WPA team as consultants and explained their roles, and indicated an outline of the scope and timeline for completing this effort.This information was presented at Princess Anne and Thalia Civic League meetings, as briefings to the Virginia Beach Vision group and Bayfront Advisory Commission, and in presentations by staff to the Housing Advisory Committee, the Bicycle/Trails Advisory Committee, and Virginia Beach Planning Commission. Following the introductory presentations, a hybrid public meeting was held at the Meyera E. Oberndorf Central Library to start the project, present the pattern book concept to the public,seek feedback from citizens, and answer questions from the public.At the meeting, surveys were distributed to attendees along with links to online surveys with the same questions. The results of these surveys were tallied and incorporated into the work done with focus groups. Following the public meeting, two focus groups were established;one to address residential resilience and resident interests in commercial sites int he Bow Creek focus area, and the other to represent the interests of the business community and broader residential interests. Input from these focus group sessions forms the basis for the recommendations provided on the next page. molliplber �. re r _ _ �:•s� ?r.tom ...t `,-.. _ -2 4 City of Virginia Beach INTRODUCTION Community Engagement Summary Public Information Meeting-February 23,2022 The first formal public information meeting was held the evening of Wednesday, February 23rd at the Meyera E. Oberndorf Central Library and was an opportunity for City Staff and the WPA team to brief members of the public about the scope of the project, previous experience in drafting similar guidelines and pattern books. Members of the community were encouraged and instructed how to join upcoming focus group meetings in order to gather further valuable information from the residents and business owners. A short Q&A session was held, primarily clarifying the scope and purpose of the project as well as addressing immediate concerns and inaccurate information about the details of the project which had been spread through social media posts. Participants both online and in person were given the opportunity to provide feedback in the form of a survey with questions posed during the presentation as well as volunteer to be members of the future focus groups. Focus Group#1 Meeting- Bow Creek Area Resiliency Toolkit- March 24,2022 Several members of the Bow Creek residential community, business owners, planning commission members, staff from the City of Virginia Beach and members of the WPA project team met as a group at the Virginia Beach Planning and Community Development office building on the evening of Thursday March 24th. During a presentation from the team explaining the project,the seven focus group members and two planning commissioners participated in an open dialogue focusing on existing conditions within the primary study area in Bow Creek, key aspects of how the group viewed connections to the surrounding commercial areas and future development within them.The group also discussed different types of resiliency and steps that can be taken to mitigate flooding. Focus Group#2 Meeting-Suburban/Commercial Area Pattern Book- March 31,2022 Civic league members, Planning Commission members, members of the business community,along with staff from the City of Virginia Beach met with the WPA team on the evening of Thursday March 31st as the second focus group assembled for this project. The primary focus of this group was the Suburban and Commercial areas and developing a pattern book for future development and growth in these areas. During a short presentation and open discussion,the WPA team explained how aspects of previous pattern books were developed and implemented in other areas similar to the ones being focused on for this project.The four focus group members, including business and property owners,and two Planning Commissioners participated in a dialogue and Q&A for just over an hour talking about their experiences and visions for these areas as well as what they'd like to see in the updated guidelines. Combined Focus Group Meeting to Discuss Pattern Book/Toolkit Concepts-June 22,2022 Focus Group#1 and #2 invitees, along with staff from the City of Virginia Beach, met with the WPA team on Wednesday evening,June 22nd. The primary focus of this group was the Suburban and Commercial areas.The group developed a set of concepts for design based on the overlap of values shared between the residential community and the commercial development industry. Pattern Book/Toolkit Concepts Open House Meeting-VB Staff Internal Review Meeting-June 28,2022 Staff from the City of Virginia Beach met with the WPA team on Tuesday morning,June 28th to review pattern book and resilience toolkit concepts prior to the scheduled public meeting open house later in the week. This was intended to educate staff on the current progress of the projects and get initial feedback in regards to their individual areas of expertise from multiple departments. This input was gathered in the same open house format to allow flexibility of scheduling during the work day and comments/markups among participants on exhibits and discussion with team members. These comments and information was then incorporated into several changes and modifications of exhibits for the public meeting open house. City of Virginia Beach 5 INTR -DUCT!

Outparcels should be developed to become the face of the development and the neighborhood: The end result of this redevelopment is more like an extension of the neighborhood out to the primary street than a completely separate zone. The outparcels (or street frontage if all the same property) create this new neighborhood address with facades that define a strong street edge. In a multi-phase transformation,this can become a first step to create the room necessary at the interior of the site for the other improvements.

Each of these areas incorporates development with similar characteristics and styles among other similarities. The study areas indicated on pages 14-18 were analyzed to help create these three character areas. They do not have a defined edge and should be utilized as a guiding factor in commercial redevelopment opportunities. COASTAL CHARACTER AREA • Somewhat isolated from other commercial developments • Typically small to medium scale • Fewer commercial options • More multi family and multi story residential nearby • Subject to design guidelines and coastal environmental conditions such as wind, driven rain, blowing sand, airborne salt, etc. • Stronger pedestrian connections INLAND CHARACTER AREA • Significant supply of commercial options • Stronger vehicular connections, limited pedestrian connections • Greater proportion of large scale developments • Mostly adjacent to one to two story single family residential;some adjacent to multi story multi family residential AICUZ CHARACTER AREA • Majority of developments closely resemble the "Inland Character Area" • Significant supply of commercial options • Stronger vehicular connections, limited pedestrian connections • Greater proportion of large scale developments • Majority of properties are in Accident Potential Zone 2 (APZ2);some are in Noise Contour zones only, limiting residential density. 16 City of Virginia Beach Site Scale Designation The following site scales were created for each Character Area.

Shore Drive (East, N Great Neck Road): This oceanfront shopping center benefits from tourists visiting the beaches as well as a year-round residential neighborhood of single family homes, multi- family apartments and condos, as well as a senior-living facility. There has recently been a public trail developed along the edge of this commercial area, which may benefit future development. 2. Commercial Area between Pembroke SGA and Rosemont SGA: This central area in Virginia Beach is part of a residential community with a local elementary school, high school, and library. The commercial area is between two highway exits and currently experiences a consistent amount of vehicular traffic. There are infrastructure improvements planned in the area such as public trails and kayak launches 3. Holland Road to S Independence Boulevard: This central commercial area is directly next to Mt. Trashmore Park which attracts visitors from around the region. There is a well established residential community of apartment buildings,town homes, and single family homes nearby. The existing businesses currently only have vehicular access, so there is often congestion as people travel from one business to another. 4. Holland Road and Windsor Oaks Boulevard: This commercial area has seen recent success and new investment in shopping centers and apartment complexes nearby. Commercial development and adjacent residences are disconnected from the commercial developments and must be accessed by car.As this area continues to grow, commercial areas will need to provide alternative means of access, reducing commute times to an appropriate amount. 5. Holland Road and S Rosemont Road: This commercial area is an attractive setting for businesses, as it is surrounded by residential areas. There are successful parks nearby, but not within the commercial areas. New commercial development may benefit from offering residential-friendly amenities to serve the surrounding market. 6. Holland Road and Lynnhaven Parkway: This commercial area is close to Oceana Naval facility and development must be done in accordance to the Department of Defense's (DoD) Air Installations Compatible Use Zones(AICUZ) discretionary program designed to promote development compatible with military flight operations. The commercial area is at the intersection of two major thoroughfares and partially bordered by London Bridge Creek. New development should offer connections to adjacent development to limit the congestion on the public roads. 7. Lynnhaven Mall Area: This area takes its name and heritage from the Lynnhaven River system that has a major presence here. The entire area is heavily impacted by AICUZ restrictions associated with flight patterns at NAS Oceana. This gateway to the Great Neck peninsula exhibits a large number of nonconforming signs, overhead utilities, roadway access points, and varied building and site designs 8. Commercial Areas between Hilltop SGA and Resort SGA: This area is located close to a successful oceanfront resort community and another successful retail center. The commercial study area is immediately adjacent to a golf&yacht club community that is experiencing traffic congestion as a result of the communities success. The City's Active Transportation Plan proposes to create a network of interconnected trails and paths to offer alternative modes of transportation to the commercial area. City of Virginia Beach 23 COASTAL OVERVIEW The Coastal Character Area is defined by proximity to the coastline,typically being located within one to two streets from the water. These developments should be designed in coastal architectural styles to complement the surrounding context. These areas are frequently more isolated than the Inland areas and provide more neighborhood-scale commodity commercial than many of the Inland properties. However,there tends to be fewer commercial options available to those in the Coastal areas. Coastal Character Areas are typically more walkable in their existing form than other parts of the City due to higher numbers of tourists and residents who value living in a smaller beachfront community. These areas also tend to have more existing multi-story residential already in place. Development sites tend to be smaller in the Coastal areas,with Small to Medium sites being most prevalent, and site widths falling into the 250 foot to 500 foot range. Given their increased exposure to environmental conditions such as wind and driven rain from storms, and that design guidelines exist for the Shore Drive Corridor, Coastal sites tend to have a more discernible architectural identity than other areas in Virginia Beach. KEY ELEMENTS Commercial developments in the Coastal Character Area are typically located along major roads running parallel to the coastline. The commercial parcels in the Coastal Character Area are smaller than others presented in this pattern book and it's quite common to see two to four separate commercial parcels on one block in the Coastal area. The commercial parcels along the main road frequently serve both single-family and multi-family neighborhoods. The Coastal Area is closest to the Bayfront and Resort Area, which attract tourists and visitors year-round. This influx of visitors causes a strain on parking lots here. Consideration should be given to improving pedestrian connections and on-street parking options off of Shore Drive where it is practicable and feasible. l'ift-1:-0•'''' - S -.-.ate r r.

Not only is it a favorite destination among locals for its numerous restaurants and retail shops, it is also a popular connection between the Bayfront and the Resort Area, as well as a gateway to the the Chesapeake Bay Bridge Tunnel. As laid out in the Shore Drive Corridor Plan,the vision for the Shore Drive Corridor is to re-establish a coastal character to the commercial frontage through architectural styles and site configurations that accommodate a relaxed beach-front lifestyle. The corridor has strong east-west pedestrian connections by way of the Cape Henry Trail. Residents and tourists use the Cape Henry trail to hike, walk, and bike with friends, family, and pets. This is one commercial area located along Shore Drive but design principles and guidance in the Coastal Character Area should be applied throughout commercial areas located nearby. The Cape Henry Trail is a successful public amenity that is routed through this commercial area. Commercial properties here pre-date the Cape Henry trail's construction and are not directly connected to the trail.They are separated by a drainage ditch,fence, and/or vegetation.

The previous plans created for Shore Drive (Shore Drive Corridor Plan, Shore Drive Corridor Design Guidelines) should continue to be implemented and followed in order to preserve the naturally occurring environment and established character of the area. The majority of commercial sites are of the small scale and are typically less than 350 feet in depth and width. The north side of Shore Drive has areas where buildings have been brought to the street edge and create a fairly continuous facade line.As future development occurs and the Shore Drive Corridor Plan is implemented, landscape, building facades, and streetscape improvements should be incorporated to establish a continuous edge to Shore Drive.This continuous edge is critical in creating an environment in which drivers naturally drive at slower speed which are the safest for pedestrians walking along and across the street, and are also the most conducive to supporting the businesses located along the street. .mot 0 \1 , % h , _,_:_-_-3-Lif).., AS--‘. .-".--,11.,.•",.

City of Virginia Beach 29 COASTAL STUDY AREA: SHORE DRIVE CORRIDOR IMPROVED CONNECTIONS The Shore Drive corridor currently has a well-loved east-west pedestrian path, called the Cape Henry Trail. This trail could be a safe pedestrian path, connecting pedestrians to shopping along Shore Drive,with north- south connections from the Trail to the commercial properties.According to survey responses and public input, residents would most like to see neighborhood-serving commercial such as small hardware stores, grocers, and other businesses which make life convenient without needing to leave the Shore Drive Corridor.

Shore Drive is the main road of this area and divides the neighborhood. One section is waterfront and home to primarily multifamily dwellings, the other is land-bound and hosts a majority of the single family homes. The shared line of Shore Drive is currently commercial uses that benefits all residents and is also host to many tourists in the warmer seasons. The study area offers commercial uses in the form of retail, gas stations, lodging, restaurants and bars. Planning for these transient, sometimes late night, uses to exist close to single family neighborhoods that expect peace and quiet will be an important part of redevelopment that intends to contribute to the neighborhood. Redevelopment may also benefit from the existing Cape Henry Trail. It's a well traveled pedestrian path that new development should connect to with a series of sidewalks, paths,trails and crosswalks. Currently most commercial properties in the area don't have a residential component, but a developer may seek to re-zone property in order to include residential space.A simple model illustrated on page 111 of the Shore Drive Corridor Plan states that buildings can add one floor on top of existing zoning height limits for every 20 feet of additional setback from required setback line adjoining right-of-way. Most residences here are no taller than three stories, so the height and scale of any new construction should be similar to the surrounding areas, with the taller,three story buildings should be located closer to Shore Drive where applicable,to minimize any negative impacts on privacy felt by neighboring smaller homes. �� I i ■ ji.,",$ ,...,,,-4. ii ..., • . i A., 11/-E'- la 6 II.fi,.- , i7S;;1;- wir..ftii �""'." tiw7 /iJ- T d Shore Drive Corridor Plan on page 111 Shore Drive Corridor Plan on page 111 Illustrates adding an additional floor for an additional Illustrates low and moderate height buildings should 20 feet of setback from adjoining right-of-way be encouraged throughout the corridor in order to better reflect the existing residential character and neighborhood scale City of Virginia Beach 31 LA' C'ARACTE' L'E_, OVERVIEW Much of the development in Virginia Beach has occurred away from the immediate coastal environment and area immediately adjacent to NAS Oceana. This Character Area addresses these locations. Much of this area has been developed residentially with a diversity of neighborhood types that are supported by small, medium, and large commercial centers. To support the connection between residential and commercial areas, the vehicular infrastructure of the Inland Area is quite robust. The pedestrian infrastructure is currently strengthened with the implementation of the Active Transportation Plan. As development continues in this area, careful consideration should be given to reducing the impact that stormwater runoff has within the watershed. Stormwater management practices should be designed as park-like spaces, with pathways, shading, and site furnishings that further strengthen the pedestrian infrastructure. Current development trends suggest that redevelopment of commercial properties will include structures built at three stories or more. Care should be taken with the location and orientation of these buildings, when built on lots adjacent to residential communities, to preserve any privacy that adjacent residents currently enjoy. Key Elements Developments in the Inland Character Area are typically separated from adjacent parcels by natural features or constructed barriers. Most parcels are accessed by multiple drive aisles, where asphalt is the most common surface material with a raised 5' concrete sidewalk lining the buildings' main facades. As a result of this development style, it is more convenient, and more common, for shoppers to use personal vehicles to move about the shopping center than it is to walk. This currently is a burden on the vehicular infrastructure and also represents an opportunity for improvement in new developments. rFrk- _ _::: ..... - '.:-.: ---:' rr—''"'"--- ' �6� -i .yt a • .

There is well-established infrastructure for vehicular travel in the area.A majority of these commercial parcels are developed to be convenient only to the patron visiting by vehicle. Small parcels may become quickly burdened by traffic congestion if each visitor must travel by personal car. Increasing pedestrian connections between commercial areas and nearby residences should reduce car trips for locals. As the destinations and public trails adjacent to this area develop, new investment should be made to infrastructure that supports appropriate pedestrian connections. These may be bike paths to trails, or private sidewalks that connect to the public right-of-way. Offering alternate means of access that are as convenient& comfortable as of travel that's as enjoyable as driving will help mitigate increasing traffic congestion. City of Virginia Beach 37 INLA\ D STUDY AREA: PEV BROKE TO ROSEVO \T EXISTING CONDITIONS This commercial area benefits from being surrounded by several institutional uses, such as libraries, churches, and schools, which are enjoyed by the nearby residents. Currently,there is only one street that is connected to all of these amenities,Virginia Beach Boulevard, a major east-west thoroughfare. Plans are underway to bring another, pedestrian-oriented thoroughfare to this area, designed for recreational use by bike, or walking. This path would run parallel to Southern Boulevard. The residential neighborhoods consist of either apartments or single-family homes. Most single-family homes are detached, but there are several examples of townhouses and duplexes in the area as well. Common cladding materials are brick and vinyl siding. There are a few structures with E.I.F.S or stucco remaining. All public roads here are designed with preference to facilitating vehicular access. Every road has a surface paved for cars and few have paved surfaces for walking or other modes of transport. Wherever pedestrians and vehicles share a paved surface, the design favors vehicular movement over pedestrian. An example would be a painted crosswalk over asphalt, as opposed to a raised crossing or continuous sidewalk. As this area develops, so should the public and private pedestrian infrastructure. Creating more biking/ walking connections between the existing attractions and any planned ones, will reduce traffic congestion and commute times for local residents, commuters, and shoppers.

Often there are mature trees of over 30 feet in height that act as a buffer between residential and non-residential uses. These residential areas are composed of single-family detached homes, attached townhomes, and condominium apartment developments. The homes are one to two stories in height,with sloped roofs. They use traditional building materials such as brick, horizontal siding,wood railings and asphalt shingles. Most homes don't have a fenced in front yard, but many have a fenced in back yard. Developments adjacent to existing residential areas should be designed so as to preserve the private nature of the existing backyards in the residential areas. Effective methods are screening with evergreen trees, and limiting heights within 100 feet of adjacent residential parcels. tree screening' ■ ■ ii ■ ■ ■ ■ ii ■ ■ ■ ■ Eli !■ Ili fii' MI Fir Hilili 1 ii ii i i ii j='ElE "" ilifii I ii ii Ili ; 1411■F II = "!!I I III . f Commercial Redevelopment Existing Residential Parcels ,. n .Ai L " THAI IA EMS STATION N0 15 V is ?'- << -+T� Y _ ' tea.- i t / 1.: �f 'R '. -° — L'�,'d cy.. i /� City of Virginia Beach 43 I \ LA\ D STUDY AREA: HOLLAND TO INDEPE\ DE\ CE OVERVIEW The vision for the Holland Road and S Independence area includes a medium-density residential neighborhood and commercial village surrounding Mt.

There is an entrance to Mt. Trashmore Park at one end of the commercial area and two strip mall style parcels of a medium size at the other end of the commercial area. In between the two ends of this study area are a combination of smaller retail parcels and a couple apartment complexes. The recent apartment complexes have been developed with trails that connect to Mt Trashmore Park, extending the benefits of a park to the residents. Commercial Areas here should include trails and paths that offer a seamless walking/biking experience from park to home to storefront. City of Virginia Beach 45 INLA\ D STUDY AREA: HOLLAND TO INDEPENDENCE EXISTING CONDITIONS This area benefits from the success of Mt. Trashmore Park over the past several decades. Continuous investment in the park has created a neighborhood attraction that is family-oriented and open to the general public. The three major roads that are within this commercial area are S Plaza Trail, S Independence Boulevard and Holland Road. All three roads can be followed to new residential developments including multi-family apartments,town homes, condos, and single-family homes. There are also well established communities of homes.As these residents commute to and from their homes,they are likely to pass this commercial area that lies just a couple miles south of the interstate entrance at Independence Boulevard. This area is attractive to businesses seeking vehicular traffic, close interstate access, and a large customer base. Currently many outparcels offer drive-through food pick-up,with shopping at individual stores within strip malls to the rear of the property. Between the strip malls and the outparcels there are parking lots with few designated places for pedestrians to walk or rest in between shopping trips. Most commercial properties here have been designed with two entrances, often one on a main public road and the other on an interior road or secondary public road. Older developments tend to have this entrance designed for vehicular use,while newer developments incorporate sidewalks at both entrances.The most successful designs have pedestrian paths that continue to the building's main entrance with painted crosswalks wherever they persons may be traveling in the same space vehicles may drive. 1111 6 -11 FORGE pi) I o� \J,STRE"6.6 TRA- MORE,- *I: :: PARK f ' %•i_ q-....N 3 - 1,9,��0 0O` Sy�O� �� 4-,O P • .p 9� AF,, 4,1,,, ti© o , �� FA � „, 0 G, <96 J P F O S) gR0OkSyDE�,N 14,,o - i _ _ _ P. 47'-' IIII e<, _, iii. , ,.,,, I i. �p4III14LRM1± T • `q...„ 'LAl ,..

Currently,there is one direct route from the park to the commercial study area here via S Independence Boulevard/Holland Road. In an attempt to reduce the vehicular traffic burden of Holland Road new developments should create a continuous network of trails that connect to the Park. The City of Virginia Beach has plans for improving pedestrian infrastructure on all the major public roads in this area. This creates the opportunity for a park visitor to leave their car in the parking lot and then walk to a nearby convenience store or restaurant and then walk back without adding to traffic. ♦ ♦ f aj ♦ m . � r.

Often there are mature trees of over 30 feet in height that act as a buffer between residential and non-residential uses.These residential areas are composed of single-family detached homes, attached town homes,and apartment developments. The rear of many commercial properties in this area border the yards of private homes. In addition to mature trees separating commercial from residential uses there are often fences and drainage ditches making the commercial area distinct and separate from the residential developments. Newer development trends often mix these two uses to increase the market base that the commercial areas have. New commercial developments adjacent to residential areas should be designed to preserve the private nature of the existing backyards in the residential areas. Effective methods are screening with evergreen trees and limiting building heights within 100 feet of adjacent residential parcels. Below is an example of how tree screening should be used as a buffering method for buildings up to four stories in height. Commercial parcels with access to Holland Road and S Plaza Trail should place entrances with sidewalks for pedestrians on each of those main streets.The same principle should be applied for other developments that can be accessed by two or more public roads.

The commercial area has seen an increase in development with a new multifamily complex constructed across the street from the commercial parcels shown below in the salmon tone. The commercial is located at the intersection of a couple major roads. There are residential uses surrounding the commercial area. Most residential developments have backyards adjacent to the commercial development and separated with a buffer of fencing, trees, or a combination of both. New residential developments have aligned their entrances with existing commercial entrances to increase the capacity for vehicular traffic flow. These entrances are aligned over main roads of 4-6 lanes in width. The distance to cross roads, combined with no crosswalk or indicator of pedestrian traffic makes walking to the commercial area an uncomfortable and dangerous experience.These intersections should be examined for potential crosswalks,yield signs, stop signs, and lighted traffic signals to facilitate safe access for vehicles and pedestrians alike. Some residences feature a continuous sidewalk or trail network, others have clubhouses or internal residential amenities. These amenities rarely connect to adjacent commercial developments.

These areas are perfect places to place pedestrian amenities. Adequate lighting should be placed along these paths in commercial areas for safety. r d lt G O JERNO""S ''''- 4_1:s\'‘ ` p ,�- b• ,` 1 tl\e:‘ 4, /sHr: °"---:.1 s�S 119 O , `, 8- • • Rq�c�s �N•°° o ft aRAN NOLIANo gia • • . . - . ° g° • i al " • I , _ - " 4. 0 z s' k ,.. • 0 . 4s, i ,. u,• • O • l° C« A 8<o<< 44 v� � H 8—o c f• O O 1 v � --'NOVO'�I,FT FyI ,eniaiit.,, .

Often there are mature trees and stormwater features that act as a buffer between residential and non-residential uses. These residential areas are composed of single-family detached homes, attached town homes, and apartment developments. The rear of many commercial properties in this area border the yards of private homes. In addition to mature trees separating commercial from residential uses there are often fences and drainage ditches making the commercial area distinct and separate from the residential developments. Newer development trends often mix these two uses to increase the market base that the commercial areas have. New commercial developments adjacent to residential areas should be designed to preserve the private nature of the existing backyards in the residential areas. Effective methods are screening with evergreen trees and limiting building heights within 100 feet of adjacent residential parcels. Below is an example of how tree screening should be used as a buffering method for buildings in this area. li •-!!!! - ul s, ........ cJ�E ❑ 0l o 0 i ` ,n0I _0 . . .. ❑! • j --ate .�1:- ' - - eft _ac______ -- ,,,,* New Taller Buildings at street edge New mid-size Buildings Existing Single Family -Rear of buildings facing Residential property line to maintain privacy There exists a healthy network of wide pedestrian streets and paths in this area.

City of Virginia Beach 55 OVERVIEW AICUZ Character Areas are those commercial corridors which lie within an Accident Potential Zone (APZ) or Noise Contour of the Air Installations Compatible Use Zone, also known as AICUZ,established around Naval Air Station Oceana. These zones limit the uses and density of development in order to maintain the safety and quality of life of communities that are close to military air bases. Key Elements Commercial developments in the AICUZ Character Area are most commonly restaurants, auto-services, warehouses, or offices.They are typically separated from adjacent parcels by natural features or constructed barriers, especially when adjacent to residential uses. The example image below shows a residential development next to a restaurant, shopping center, and warehouse department store with no direct access due to landscaped areas and a constructed pond to manage stormwater.This landscaped buffer should be designed as a walkable park,to connect to existing parcels whenever possible.This alternate mode of access can reduce travel times and vehicular congestion in the AICUZ area as new developments are built. r, - ,.II . ,-Iklii___,11' , ; .

DESIGN PRINCIPLES This commercial area is surrounded residential communities. There is a 'RFsr AL moderately well-connected street grid on which there are many single '1 a�rv4cry family homes, attached townhomes, E. "aMPLar � and a few apartment complexes. n a wA�CROFr° Most residential developments 'Attk•- , Z feature cul-de-sac style roads. i r › r These types of developments result < N a " '` 0 in private yards lining the main _.. roads. Many developments and L homeowners elect to build a fence Z � o for privacy. 8` e cr <- In order to maintain a balance of �`� / privacy and access to commerce, commercial developments should align their entrances with adjacent �,uFS r roadways and provide tree-lined -4•41 Fr streets with sidewalks to connect to R° 0i4� the public right-of-way. g y These streets should be lined with building facades,with parking available nearby. This development pattern creates a seamless travel experience for drivers and locals walking. Incorporating these streets with stormwater parks on larger parcels creates an attractive amenity for all visitors to the commercial parcels. GOALS • Align commercial entrances with existing street network of surrounding residential developments. • Create shopping boulevards with tree-lined streets and sidewalks to provide an enjoyable shopping experience by car, bike, or foot • Create stormwater parks on larger parcels that can be lined with commercial and residential uses and amenities 60 City of Virginia Beach AICUZ STUDY AREA: HOLLAND & ROSEMONT SITE SCALES ° BANC«�FT o° o P cz Cg Q I a i 1 c, a W e„, 0 I % i NI., �BgMq °o I ,., _, .,,, s z.

Outparcels may have a third access point if there is an internal street between it and the large parcels containing strip mall type development with large anchor buildings. City of Virginia Beach 61 AICUZ STUDY AREA: HOLLAND & ROSEMONT EXISTING CONDITIONS Small individual commercial developments are located along the major thoroughfares, often utilizing multiple entry points on adjacent streets. Most commercial buildings are surrounded by parking lots and public roads surround the properties.A majority of the public streets have a pedestrian sidewalk network, often lined with trees. The public sidewalks and the sidewalks at commercial building entrances are typically separated by a parking lot or drive aisle. There are few crosswalks where pedestrians may travel through vehicle parking areas. This makes the walking experience unpleasant, and most people within walking distance travel to the commercial area by car. The residential areas surrounding this community are well connected with few dead end streets. Residents and commercial properties alike benefit from stormwater management practices such as swales. In addition to the swales,there are tributaries of the Lynnhaven River that border some of the commercial properties. In times of low tide, these will most likely be too shallow to be navigated, but there may be a potential for a kayak launch and other water-related amenities at the eastern edge of this commercial area. The relatively well-connected street network offers a lot of amenities within driving distance.As this area's population increased,traffic congestion has as well. The city has seen residents becoming comfortable with using biking paths for exercise and nearby shopping. Currently,there are plans to increase the number of shared use paths and bike lanes in the area. BA CROT �.; Fiiip , iiiii . Q t ,_, cc,, .:x IX D aE.

To ease congestion, developments should endeavor to connect parking lots with drive aisles to benefit from the shared parking possibilities. The rear of these properties can be lined with a pedestrian path that follows the London Bridge Creek to create a separate path for walking that's comfortable and safe from vehicular traffic. This creek side trail should allow commercial access to those within walking or biking distance. �p a.4. , . � -.• - `.- � c� i 1 r • --� .�^�,n.�, :_,, __,.w+,:,-; �e-'7� B'..fa ..v ,"�. �•a,,�• it ,....:fit , � ,I d T kk r .1,, tL. ?,-,,,„ _��L-J.A.. 1r44, , Z ,n'tS V ' ` oA' �1 ,.r m - ._2. _ - ,( ---.cc-�. ` j c' -t;Qt; .of -4 00 ,;,'a,a•kD ° LARK S'T,. .`�-4- _, i# ' ,`-- s-n- Keay„ m ;� 5 - . , ;- w,w fri �- GUARDIAN I �°7 \ # `-• �: , �- --..- - r2 a� 3x . tcat , ) ♦., ,ifs n. j �, -"ea� Sri ri ,a 1---1� '?u • CENT�RAL,�DR " $ • • 0'-:.. 1 ,-4 I -- O i ._ :; j ..

Often there are mature trees and water features that act as a buffer between residential and non-residential uses. These residential areas are primarily composed of single-family detached homes and attached town homes. The rear of many commercial properties in this area border the yards of private homes. In addition to mature trees separating commercial from residential uses there are often fences and water features making the commercial area distinct and separate from the residential developments. Newer development trends often mix these two uses to increase the market base that the commercial areas have. New commercial developments adjacent to residential areas should be designed to preserve the private nature of the existing backyards in the residential areas. Effective methods are screening with evergreen trees and limiting building heights within 100 feet of adjacent residential parcels. Below is an example of how tree screening should be used as a buffering method for buildings in this area. New mid-size Buildings Existing Single Family -Rear of buildings facing Residential property line to maintain privacy A network of wide pedestrian streets and paths exist in this area. Most of these paths are located along public roads,with smaller paths located within separate developments. There is currently a lack of continuous connection between these two types of paths. Parking lots between public sidewalks and building entrances create an uncomfortable walking experience despite a relatively short distance. New commercial development can provide and experiential benefit to adjacent residents by constructing paths that connect residential trails to businesses and public trails. EXAMPLE IMAGES k R 4 } ` ti.. 7 ..rts t_: `#- 'r City of Virginia Beach 77 AICUZ STUDY AREA: HILLTOP TO RESORT AREA OVERVIEW The vision for the commercial area betweenHilltop and the Resort Area includes a low-density buffer of development along the Laskin Road corridor that serves the adjacent residential neighborhoods. The residential community to the north surrounds a golf course and many residents have personal vehicles to travel from their homes to golf courses. This embodies the relaxed and comfortable lifestyle that's characteristic of this commercial area on the border of the Resort SGA in Virginia Beach. DESIGN PRINCIPLES This commercial area is beside some of the most luxurious homes in the area. The northern residential community is located around a golf course,with access to a yacht club and beachfront �� amenities within walking distance. • j. ` 6, o`'°� The residential character on 9 . the southern side of Laskin , ° 0 Rd is much more dense with j o�\` townhomes, apartments, and °--`'` �P�P��' zz j relatively closely spaced single family homes. T. .�TRi- � There is a sufficient vehicular J_ -400 -� infrastructure here with - 1\ roadways of up to 8 lanes in Y`I 4<,_ ` 73 combined width. Crosswalks &WEBIRD DR co -f should be incorporated across rn lighted intersections to increase GI ,'_. t - ---.v E- , pedestrian safety and access. I A number of capital improvement -,r ,Io . projects are planned in this area, including gateway art that defines the area as well as a bike path planned for N Birdneck Road. New developments should incorporate these new amenities into their plans. GOALS • Build upon the existing natural resources and extend the resort experience to public open space through an interconnected system of parks and trails. • Support mixed-use developments that will be necessary to achieve the goal of a year-round resort and will enable the area to become more connected and walkable. • Improve traffic calming, pedestrian circulation, bike circulation,vehicular circulation, and on-street parking availability. 78 City of Virginia Beach AICUZ STUDY AREA: HLLTOP TO RESORT AREA SITE SCALES 1 ,_„., I_... tj is, Ivb,„ , _ _ 4.o.

Medium sized lots in this area are adjacent to denser housing types and should be able to support future mixed- use development constructed with respect to the style and scale of adjacent homes. City of Virginia Beach 79 AICUZ STUDY AREA: HILLTOP TO RESORT AREA EXISTING CONDITIONS This commercial corridor is located along Laskin Road, a major thoroughfare that many people use to drive to commute to the Oceanfront. The entire commercial area is within the boundaries of the APZ2,with close proximity to Oceana Naval Air Station. Most commercial parcels in this area offer services for local residents such as dining, religious venues, retail, grocery stores and personal services. In addition, there are business catered to Resort Area visitors with access to waterways to launch boats and biking tours of the area. Commercial parcels here are accessed from the main road and are most safely travelled to by car. There are few sidewalks, crosswalks, or designated areas for pedestrians to walk. r "t / de,"''..-------NN, s...1 ti, • . w / 13 / V '''...,,,,,,,, A / A V in Qom= % // ,-- --/ kr \gip �P- -..- \\., ,,,,-s‘ s,`,APiii__` 'yam .®*1.

As there are only a few roads leading out of the neighborhood,traffic congestion is a strong possibility as these parcels are developed. Offering an alternative to driving to residents of the golf-course community is encouraged here as many homeowners have small personal vehicles that can be operated on smaller paths . Residential parcels to the south should be enhanced with biking and walking connections up to the commercial areas of Laskin Road. These can be constructed along existing streets, between the road and the natural landscape of mature trees and bodies of water. *.*' . lair. dew 00° 70 t bi e�o Jo t / .� I o 0 C o V' m QP VQ, CP 0 4 0.' \lic. 0R/p �� .<d `3ANAGE • E.o 0 ff i ., • y ,t I ' ' 2 0 ,` Q, 1 t. l got CuErRa D -s i ( 710(45,0, 1 City of Virginia Beach Active Transportation Plan Existing Facilities Shared Use Paths -�-.

In these instances, new commercial develpoment should maintain the serenity of that private yard by buffering the rear a tree lined street with a wide sidewalk between the rear of both properties. In instances where commercial property abuts a residential development with multiple owners,there should be an attempt made to create a pathway that may allow those within biking or walking distance to travel to commercial areas without using a car. The neighborhood is home to several retirees and vacationers and has a relaxed character that commercial developments should embrace. Constructing park-like places for resting and well-lit continuous tree-lined paths for people to walk from their homes to individual businesses comfortably should be a goal of new development. • ❑1 1❑ ❑l D ❑^ ❑ 1I •`_r=k-F-Iiii.

All right, so this request is to amend the reference handbook of the Comprehensive Plan by incorporating two documents, the Flood Resiliency Toolkit and the Commercial Area Pattern Books into the documents adopted by reference. The Flood Resiliency Toolkit is a document that provides guidance and best practices for residents to improve resilience to flooding in their homes and within their communities. The Toolkit provides a range of recommendations based on the amount of time and money that property owners would need to invest. So this could range from something as simple as storing valuables above the base flood elevation at their home to incorporating things like rain gardens in their property, all the way up to elevating your home out of the base flood elevation. Can you go to the next slide, please? The Commercial Area Pattern Book provides a step-by-step guide for phased redevelopment of existing commercial areas within the suburban area of the city. It aims to make the redevelopment process more predictable for both developers as well as members of the community. And it's really intended to be a conversation starter between communities, developers and planning staff in the early stages of redevelopment. This project began back in February of 2022, so staff worked with a consultant, work program, architects. We worked very closely with the community to understand what the residents vision was for this particular area of the city. We held six different public meetings and presented to multiple Civic Leagues and City Boards and Commissions like the Bayfront Advisory Commission, Active Transportation Advisory Committee and the Virginia Beach Vision Group. Staff has tried to engage pretty continuously with the community throughout this project. So we included, we had presentations to the Princess Anne Plaza Civic League last month as well as at the Bayfront Advisory Commission meeting in April. So, and at their last meeting, the Bayfront Advisory Commission voted to support this request. So staff is gonna recommend approval of this ordinance as it's attempting to improve the quality of life for residents by increasing resilience to flooding, in other extreme weather events and also assisting with the redevelopment of aging commercial centers while maintaining the compatibility with the existing residential communities that they adjoin. So thank you very much. Mr. Horsley: Thank you. Now, I neglected doing that on the first of what is any opposition to this amendment, hearing none. Next item is item number four, Commonwealth Auto Group. Is there applicant here? Mr. Horsley: Thank you Ms. Cuellar. So Mr. Chairman, the consent agenda consisting of item number one, number three, number four, number five, number six, seven, eight, nine, and 11 moved, they be approved on the consent agenda. Mr. Alcaraz: Thank you, Vice Chair. Do I have a second? Mr. Coston: Second. Mr. Alcaraz: Second by Mr. Coston. Madam Clerk: The vote is now open. By vote of eight to zero items one, three, four, five, six, seven, eight, nine and 11 have been recommended for approval.
