The City Council adopted a rate of one millionth of one cent ($0.000001) per $100 of assessed value as part of the FY2022-2023 Operating Budget and continued this rate for FY2023- 2024. The Commissioner of the Revenue (the "Commissioner") currently has the ability to consider mid-year changes in circumstances bearing upon an applicant's income or net worth for the real estate version of the Elderly and Disabled Tax Relief Program. The Virginia Code authorizes the City Council to adopt an ordinance that allows a prorated preferential tax rate for the portion of the tax year during which the taxpayer qualifies for such rate. • Considerations: The Commissioner requests the adoption of the attached ordinance. The language allowing a review of a change in circumstances tracks closely with a similar provision in the real estate program. The Commissioner believes this action will assist his office in qualifying individuals for tax relief and executing the intent of the City Council in adopting the rate for motor vehicles owned and used primarily by or for a qualifying elderly or disabled person. • Public Information: Normal Council agenda process. • Recommendations: Adopt the attached ordinance. • Attachments: Ordinance Requested by the Commissioner of the Revenue REQUESTED BY THE COMMISSIONER OF THE REVENUE 1 AN ORDINANCE TO ADD CITY CODE SECTION 35- 2 14 TO ALLOW PRORATION OF PERSONAL 3 PROPERTY ELDERLY AND DISABLED TAX RATE 4 5 SECTION ADDED: § 35-14 6 7 WHEREAS, the Commissioner of the Revenue (the "Commissioner") 8 currently has the ability to consider mid-year changes in circumstances bearing 9 upon an applicant's income or net worth for the real estate version of the Elderly 10 and Disabled Tax Relief Program; 11 12 WHEREAS, § 58.1-3506.7 of the Code of Virginia provides enabling 13 authority for the City Council to adopt an ordinance that allows a prorated 14 preferential tax rate for the portion of the tax year during which a taxpayer qualifies 15 for such rate; 16 17 WHEREAS, the current rate in the City's personal property levy ordinance 18 applicable to the personal property version of the Elderly and Disabled Tax Relief 19 Program is $0.000001 per $100 of assessed value; 20 21 NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT ORDAINED BY THE COUNCIL OF THE CITY 22 OF VIRGINIA BEACH, VIRGINIA: 23 24 1. That Section 35-14 is hereby added to the Code of the City of Virginia 25 Beach to read as follows: 26 27 Sec. 35-14. — Change in circumstances; proration. 28 29 An individual who, based upon the previous year's income limitations or 30 financial worth limitations, does not qualify for the tax rate upon a motor vehicle 31 owned and used primarily by or for someone at least sixty-five years of age or 32 found to be permanently and totally disabled, as authorized by Section 58.1- 33 3506.1 et seq. of the Code of Virginia, may nonetheless qualify for the current 34 year by filing an affidavit that clearly shows a substantial change of 35 circumstances that was not volitional on the part of the individual to become 36 eligible for the tax rate. If the application pursuant to this section is approved, the 37 extension of the preferential tax rate shall be prorated by multiplying the 38 applicable tax due by a fraction, wherein the number of complete months of the 39 year such property would be eligible for the preferential tax rate is the numerator 40 and the number twelve (12) is the denominator. Any extension of the preferential 41 tax rate under this section is conditioned upon the individual filing another 42 affidavit after the end of the year in which the preferential tax rate is provided, 43 within sixty (60) days of the completion of the year showing that the actual income 1 44 and financial worth levels were within the limitations of the personal property tax 45 levy ordinance. If the actual income and financial worth levels exceeded the 46 limitations, any extension of the preferrable rate shall be nullified for the taxable 47 year subject to treatment under this section and the taxable year immediately 48 following. 49 50 2.

A copy of that request is attached hereto. An "indefinite delivery or quantity contract" is a contract that only requires performance of contractual obligations upon the request of the City and which establishes an annual cap for the total work that may be authorized under such contract. Authorizing alternative bonding requirements could remove potential barriers to participation in City contracts by Small, Women-owned, and Minority-owned (SWaM) businesses. The General Assembly adopted, and the Governor signed, the legislation requested, which is 2023 Acts of Assembly c. 211 ("Chapter 211") and is also attached. Chapter 211 requires the adoption of an ordinance prior to allowing a contractor for an indefinite delivery or quantity contract to furnish performance and payment bonds equal to the dollar amount of the individual tasks requested by the City for the contract. • Considerations: The attached ordinance is necessary to implement the legislative request the City Council included in its 2023 Legislative Agenda. The Minority Business Council endorsed this ordinance at its June 9, 2023, meeting. If adopted, the City would include the task order bonding requirements in its solicitations of indefinite delivery or quantity contracts starting July 1. The resulting contracts would have bonds issued to match task orders in conformity with Chapter 211. • Public Information: Normal Council agenda process. • Recommendations: Adopt the attached ordinance. • Attachments: Ordinance; Legislative Request; 2023 Acts of Assembly c. 211 Recommended Action: Approval Submitting Department/Agency: Finance City Manager: (Iry 1 AN ORDINANCE TO ADD SECTION 2-215.4 TO THE 2 CITY CODE TO AUTHORIZE ALTERNATIVE 3 BONDING REQUIREMENTS FOR INDEFINITE 4 DELIVERY OR QUANTITY CONTRACTS 5 6 SECTION ADDED: § 2-215.4 7 8 WHEREAS, the Minority Business Council endorsed, and the City Council 9 adopted, an item in the 2023 Legislative Agenda seeking the General Assembly 10 clarify the bonding requirements for indefinite delivery or quantity contracts; 11 12 WHEREAS, an "indefinite delivery or quantity contract" is a contract that 13 only requires performance of contractual obligations upon the request of the City 14 and which establishes an annual cap for the total work that may be authorized 15 under such contract; 16 17 WHEREAS, the General Assembly adopted, and the Governor signed, the 18 legislation requested, which is 2023 Acts of Assembly c. 211 ("Chapter 211"), 19 20 WHEREAS, Chapter 211 requires the adoption of an ordinance prior to 21 allowing a contractor for an indefinite delivery or quantity contract to furnish 22 performance and payment bonds equal to the dollar amount of the individual tasks 23 requested by the City for the contract; 24 25 WHEREAS, this ordinance is necessary to implement the legislative 26 request the City Council included in its 2023 Legislative Agenda; and 27 28 WHEREAS, the Minority Business Council endorsed this ordinance at its 29 June 9, 2023, meeting; 30 31 NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT ORDAINED BY THE COUNCIL OF THE CITY 32 OF VIRGINIA BEACH, VIRGINIA: 33 34 1.

APPROVED AS TO CONTENT: APPROVED AS TO LEGAL SU CY: 1 e7 117a- Department of Finance Heys Office CA16188 R-1 June 7, 2023 ts,,P:fr7NVIRGINIA CODE AMENDMENT . „I �� CLARIFICATION OF BONDS REQUIRED FOR INDEFINITE DELIVERY / INDEFINITE QUANTITY CONSTRUCTION CONTRACTS Sponsored by Councilmembers Delceno Miles and Aaron R. Rouse Background: The General Assembly has recently acted to reduce the bonding requirements for certain types of construction contracts. Most recently, SB258 and SB259 in the 2022 General Assembly increased the bond thresholds for transportation projects and removed the prequalification requirement for other bond waiver projects. One specific type of construction contract that has heretofore not been addressed is indefinite delivery / indefinite quantity (IDIQ) construction contracts. IDIQ contracts make no guarantee of work, but these contracts allow a public entity to establish pricing and issue task orders on an "as-needed" basis. IDIQ contract establish an annual not-to-exceed cap for the total work that can be authorized for such contract. The Virginia Public Procurement Act and specifically § 2.2-4337 require performance and payment bonds "in the sum of the contract amount" for any public construction contract above the statutory thresholds. In the context of IDIQ, there have been two approaches. One approach requires performance and payment bonds in the amount of the annual not-to-exceed cap for the total work that can be authorized. The other approach is to require bonds for the dollar amount of the individual tasks. The City of Virginia Beach, in concert with the Minority Business Council, continues to look for opportunities to remove potential barriers to participation in City contracts by Small, Women, and Minority-owned (SWaM) businesses. Because large bond amounts can create a barrier to participation by SWaM businesses, the City seeks clarification regarding the required bonds for IDIQ contracts. Request: The City Council requests Virginia Code§2.2-4337 be amended to authorize the City Council to adopt an ordinance regarding the performance and payment bonds for indefinite delivery / indefinite quantity construction contracts. If adopted, the ordinance would elect to require performance and payment bonds to be provided by contractors based on the dollar amount of the individual tasks instead of the annual not-to-exceed cap. ADOPTED Virginia Beach 2023 Legislative Agenda 14 VIRGINIA ACTS OF ASSEMBLY -- 2023 SESSION CHAPTER 211 An Act to amend and reenact § 2.2-4337 of the Code of Virginia, relating to Virginia Public Procurement Act; certain construction contracts;performance and payment bonds.

A performance bond in the sum of the contract amount conditioned upon the faithful performance of the contract in strict conformity with the plans, specifications, and conditions of the contract, unless the contract is an indefinite delivery or quantity contract with a local public body and the local public body adopts an ordinance pursuant to subsection G. 2. A payment bond in the sum of the contract amount, unless the contract is an indefinite delivery or quantity contract with a local public body and the local public body adopts an ordinance pursuant to subsection G. The bond shall be for the protection of claimants who have and fulfill contracts to supply labor or materials to the prime contractor to whom the contract was awarded, or to any subcontractors, in furtherance of the work provided for in the contract, and shall be conditioned upon the prompt payment for all materials furnished or labor supplied or performed in the furtherance of the work. B. Each of the bonds shall be executed by one or more surety companies selected by the contractor that are authorized to do business in Virginia. C. If the public body is the Commonwealth, or any agency or institution thereof, the bonds shall be payable to the Commonwealth of Virginia, naming also the agency or institution thereof. Bonds required for the contracts of other public bodies shall be payable to such public body. D. Each of the bonds shall be filed with the public body that awarded the contract, or a designated office or official thereof. E. Nothing in this section shall preclude a public body from requiring payment or performance bonds for construction contracts below $500,000 for nontransportation-related projects or $350,000 for transportation-related projects authorized under Article 2 (§ 33.2-208 et seq.) of Chapter 2 of Title 33.2 and partially or wholly funded by the Commonwealth. F. Nothing in this section shall preclude the contractor from requiring each subcontractor to furnish a payment bond with surety thereon in the sum of the full amount of the contract with such subcontractor conditioned upon the payment to all persons who have and fulfill contracts that are directly with the subcontractor for performing labor and furnishing materials in the prosecution of the work provided for in the subcontract. G. For indefinite delivery or quantity contracts awarded pursuant to subsection A, any locality may by ordinance allow the contractor awarded such contract to furnish to the local public body a performance bond and a payment bond, each of which shall be equal to the dollar amount of the individual tasks identified in the underlying contract. Such contractor shall not be required to pay the performance bond and payment bond in the sum of the contract amount if the contracting locality has adopted such an ordinance pursuant to this subsection. For purposes of this section, "indefinite delivery or quantity contract" means a contract that only requires performance of contractual obligations upon the request of the locality and which establishes an annual cap for the total work that may be authorized for such contract. c rrO �C . ` gp �u -,-------- is) ,k„, v� ..,,_...., CITY OF VIRGINIA BEACH AGENDA ITEM ITEM: An Ordinance to End the Declaration of a Local Emergency MEETING DATE: June 20, 2023 • Background: State law authorizes the local director of emergency services to declare the existence of a local emergency.

Ending this emergency declaration does not mean recovery is complete. Long term recovery from this devasting incident is far from over, especially for those directly impacted by it.This recommendation is being made because the incident has progressed through response operations and is now at a point in recovery that no longer necessitates the need for an emergency declaration to support our actions. Furthermore, to ensure support and assistance for those affected by this incident continues, Emergency Management has facilitated a Recovery Transition Plan.This plan establishes objectives for long term recovery, direct points of contacts, and provides pathways for departments to follow until recovery is complete.

CITY OF VIRGINIA BEACH AGENDA ITEM J ITEM: An Ordinance to Transfer General Fund Vacancy Savings to the Sheriffs Office to Offset Increased Food and Medical Costs MEETING DATE: June 20, 2023 • Background: Beginning in FY2021-22, the Virginia Beach Sheriffs Office (VBSO) agreed to alterations of the contract with their food vendor, which increased the contract cost by 6%. The VBSO was able to absorb in its FY2021-22 budget the cost of that increase. However, in FY2022-23, the cost increases began to challenge the Sheriffs Office available funds, and costs are scheduled to exceed the budget. Lowered inmate population numbers have been the only thing keeping this contract from causing more financial burden to the Sheriffs Office's budget. The total budget for food in FY2022-23 is $1,319,615, but it is estimated the department will spend $1,400,000. Traditional medical care for inmates is the single largest expense in the VBSO Operating Budget. Inflation has resulted in higher costs for offsite medical services, personal protective equipment, other medical supplies, and routine testing. As a result of the pandemic, the VBSO adapted its facility, and many services normally provided in the Correctional Center have been subject to the changing conditions. Since FY2019-20, the VBSO has sequentially contracted with three medical vendors, due to various contractual issues. Each RFP has resulted in a contract with a different financial model, and inflation has risen as high as 6% during the current contract period. The current vendor utilizes a 100% cost transfer to the VBSO, which means that the vendor is entitled to 100% reimbursement for expenses, and those expenses have risen. Thus far through May, the VBSO has spent $7,500,000, and final billings for FY2022-23 are anticipated to be upwards of $8,700,000. This type of contract is not reliably consistent due to the uncertainty of the health of the inmate population at any point of the year, as well as an influx of new inmates with additional health problems. The VBSO is searching for a new vendor now due to contractual disagreements with the current vendor. • Considerations: Virginia law requires localities to fund medical and food costs of the jail population. The VBSO seeks insurance reimbursements where available, but most of the obligations for inmate health care fall to the City. This ordinance is necessary for the VBSO to meet its obligations through the end of the fiscal year. • Recommendation: Adopt the attached ordinance. • Public Information: Normal Council Agenda notification process. • Attachments: Ordinance Requested by the Virginia Beach Sheriff's Office REQUESTED BY THE VIRGINIA BEACH SHERIFF'S OFFICE 1 AN ORDINANCE TO TRANSFER GENERAL FUND 2 VACANCY SAVINGS TO THE SHERIFF'S OFFICE TO 3 OFFSET INCREASED FOOD AND MEDICAL COSTS 4 5 BE IT ORDAINED BY THE COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF VIRGINIA BEACH, 6 VIRGINIA, THAT: 7 8 $900,000 is hereby transferred from vacancy savings in the General Fund to the 9 FY 2022-23 Operating Budget of the Virginia Beach Sheriffs Office to cover increased 10 food and medical costs.

Chope 6/6/23 APPUC SFNAT r PRINT NAME DATE i4111i 411 p March 17,2023 Mr.Patrick A.Duhaney City Manager,City of Virginia Beach Municipal Center Virginia Beach,VA 23456 Dear Mr.Duhaney, The Neptune Festival takes great pride in representing the City of Virginia Beach as its Official Celebration. Created in 1974,the Neptune Festival is not confined to one weekend,nor is it just one major event that appeals to a distinct group; rather it is a yearlong collection of more than 40 diverse and accessible events that attract and entertain locals and visitors from all walks of life. We are a proven entity with 49 years of experience planning and producing the most widely attended festival in the Commonwealth of Virginia. Neptune Festival events appeal to audiences of all ages,backgrounds,and interests. For example,our annual Seniors' Gala attracts more than 600 attendees from as far away as northeast North Carolina for an evening of dinner and dancing,and our Symphony by the Sea Concert Series attracts more than 1,000 residents and guests to 31't Street Park on six evenings each summer. Likewise,our newly introduced Touch-a-Truck display offers an opportunity for families to see heavy machinery up close-this year,in honor of the City's 60"Anniversary,we will focus on vehicles,equipment, and professionals from across numerous City departments. The Neptune Festival recognizes the value of being"better together." We have created sustainable partnerships with Virginia Beach City Public Schools,and in 2022 we welcomed students from W.T.Cooke Elementary School and Seatack Elementary School:An Achievable Dream Academy to the International Sandsculpting Gallery. Prior to their visit,we worked with educators to provide curriculum-enhancing educational material. Additionally,we partnered with Naval Air Station Oceana to deliver Beach Blast-the annual event along the oceanfront featuring the US Fleet Forces Band,flybys, and parachutists. Our Beyond the Boardwalk program is a force multiplier for good by providing unique opportunities at our events throughout the year for more than 25 local non-profit organizations to increase their exposure and impact. The Neptune Festival gives back more than we receive. Our signature Boardwalk Weekend in late September and early October draws more than 400,000 people to the oceanfront during the fall season,filling hotels and restaurants during those economically important off-season months. Our most recent economic impact study illustrated that Neptune Festival Boardwalk Weekend attendees generated: • $1.19 million in direct tax revenue(3.2:1 return on City investment) • $23.5 million economic impact(63:1 return on City investment) • $16.9 million in direct economic impact Virginia Beach Neptune Festival 265 Kings Grant Road,Suite 102 J Virginia Beach,Virginia 23452 (757)498-0215 1 www.NeptuneFestival.com 1 @NeptuneFestival The price of produdng the festival is rising dramatically. The event services for which we contract are increasing In cost every year. For example,the cost of erecting and maintaining the tent for the international Sandsculpting Championship has increased 32%in just one year. The costs of every other service or product have risen in a similar fashion-from Ice to security to booking nationally known musical groups. The Virginia Beach Neptune Festival's request for City funding in 2023 is$500,000. We look forward to enhancing our events to maximize their appeal and relevancy as we accelerate towards the Neptune Festival's 50th Anniversary In 2024. We thank you for the City's support over the years,and we look forward to continuing our strong relationship with City leadership and staff. Sincerel,;' r Chope David C.Burton Preident'&-CF4 Chair of the Board of Directors VIRGINIA BEACH NEPTUNE FESTIVAL BOARDWALK WEEKEND FAST FACTS • 405,400 attendees over the three days of Neptune Festival Boardwalk Weekend • 52%of attendees are visitors from outside of Virginia Beach • 26,500 room nights generated by overnight hotel attendees • $170 per day spent by overnight hotel attendees • 1 In 4 residents visit Neptune Festival Boardwalk Weekend at least one day • 80%of attendees have visited Neptune Festival Boardwalk Weekend in the past • 8 average past visits attendees have made to Neptune Festival Boardwalk Weekend • 98%of attendees say they will return or may return next year • 4 in 5 visitors came to Virginia Beach specifically to attend Neptune Festival Boardwalk Weekend $1.19 million In direct tax revenue went to: o $596K to the Tourism Investment Program o $422K to the General Fund o $175K to the Tourism Advertising Program 2 • c*1si) 1 f March 17,2023 Mr.Patrick A.Duhaney City Manager,City of Virginia Beach Municipal Center Virginia Beach,VA 23456 Dear Mr.Duhaney, The City of Virginia Beach and the Virginia Beach Neptune Festival have been successful partners in our Symphony by the Sea Concert Series for the past 13 years. Together,we created this series in 2010 with the intent to provide a free, family-friendly atmosphere in the middle of the week for locals and visitors to enjoy a unique musical experience at the Virginia Beach Oceanfront. The City's original investment of$100,000 for six annual orchestra performances, supplemented by our sponsorship and VIP subscriber programs,has delighted tens of thousands of attendees for more than a decade. We have continued the series as initially developed without increased City funding throughout this entire period. Over the past three years,we have faced numerous difficult decisions with the series.In 2020,we cancelled the series due to COVID and returned the City's full investment.In 2021,we reprogrammed the series to operate on a limited scale.In 2022,the post-pandemic environment allowed us to return the series to normal,resulting in record attendance. As we prepare for the 2023 Symphony by the Sea Concert Series,we have seen event expenses continue to rise across the board.Orchestra fees have Increased more than 50%,production by 30%,tenting/equipment by 25%,and security by 12%.Without an increase in the City's contribution,we will be unable to continue to produce a series that both residents and visitors have grown to love and anticipate each year. As such,the Virginia Beach Neptune Festival is requesting the City funding of the Symphony by the Sea Concert Series increase to$185,000 annually.These funds will allow us to manage the rising expenses,while we continue to provide this exceptional series of events in the inclusive environment we envisioned more than a decade ago. We thank the city of Virginia Beach for its continued support of this program and the greater arts community.

COUNCIL DISTRICT 1 MEETING DATE: June 20, 2023 (deferred on January 17, 2023) ■ Background: The applicant seeks to rezone a portion of the Kemps River Crossing Shopping Center from B-2 Community Business to Conditional B-4 Mixed Use District to develop a mixed-use community. According to the applicant, the shopping center currently has a 56 percent vacancy rate. Approximately half of the existing shopping center will be demolished and replaced with five new buildings, including five apartment buildings with a maximum height of 50 feet and a single-story clubhouse building. The redeveloped site will add 322 market rate multi-family dwelling units, resulting density will be 15.51 units per acre. The proffered exterior building materials will have a mix of brick veneer, fiber cement siding, and architectural fiberglass shingles with metal accent features. Amenities may include an outdoor swimming pool, a clubhouse, pedestrian paths with benches, and a water fountain feature. While not proffered, the applicant estimates the mix of residential unit types as follows: Unit Types Number of Units Number of Bedrooms 1 Bedroom 120 120 2 Bedrooms 174 348 3 Bedrooms 28 84 Total 322 552 The Zoning Ordinance requires 901 parking spaces for this mixed-use development while 988 parking spaces are provided, thus exceeding the required parking by 87 spaces. A Phase I Environmental Site Assessment was completed and recommended a soil analysis be completed for the property, due to the potential impacts of a drycleaner business operating in an adjacent portion of the shopping center outside of this development site. The applicant completed a soil test which yielded low levels of solvents from the adjacent drycleaning business. The site has been Bonney's Corner Associates, LLP Page 2 of 3 entered into the Voluntary Remediation Program with the Department of Environmental Quality (DEQ) and the applicant will continue to coordinate with DEQ to ensure any contaminant found on site will be properly mitigated. This application was deferred at the January 17, 2023, City Council meeting to allow the applicant additional time to share details of the project with the surrounding communities. Since the deferral, the applicant held three public engagement meetings on March 3rd, March 13th, and May 22nd. While the community does seem to generally support the redevelopment concept, there are still concerns regarding the perceived increase in traffic with the additional 322 multi-family units. ■ Considerations: While the applicant was encouraged to incorporate an affordable housing component with the redevelopment and opted to only offer market rate housing, the Planning Commission recognized the benefits of redeveloping this shopping center, where more than half of the available leasing space is vacant, into a vibrant mixed-use community. Staff received two letters of support for this request. There were six speakers in opposition, one speaker in support, and one speaker expressing concerns at the Planning Commission public hearing. The focal point of opposition, along with an online petition of opposition is related to traffic congestion. The applicant provided a Traffic Impact Memorandum that showed the redevelopment of the shopping center will generate less traffic that the existing commercial use. Staff agreed with the conclusion of the Memorandum that a Traffic Impact Study was not warranted for this project as the proposed development will generate less traffic and the established roadway network and access points can accommodate the proposed development. The Memorandum shows the proposed development will reduce the trip generation by 5 percent during the AM peak and 42 percent during the PM peak when compared to the existing by-right commercial uses on-site. It should be noted that the Memorandum data is based on the assumption that the shopping center is fully occupied as the property is zoned B- 2 Community Business District and retail uses would be permitted as a matter of right. The opposition also noted concerns related to stormwater runoff. Between the existing paving and structures, the site is entirely impervious. The applicant proposes to add greenspace which will reduce the impervious cover on the site. According to the applicant, stormwater quality requirements will be meet by utilizing manufactured filtering devices where possible. Although the applicant initially proposed to purchase off-site nutrient credits, to address stormwater concerns that were brought up during the Planning Commission public hearing, the applicant submitted a revised set of proffers to include an additional proffer stating that the development would not utilize the purchase off site nutrient credits to meet the stormwater requirements. The Staff Report has been updated with underline and strikethrough to reflect this change. There is also a planned City CIP Project (CIP 100161.007) that would improve the water quality in this area through the installation of an underground treatment system at the intersection of Fordham Bonney's Corner Associates, LLP Page 3 of 3 Drive and Center Lane that would remove both trash and some sediment before flowing to local waterways. Final design and details of the stormwater system will be completed during site plan submittal to ensure compliance with all applicable stormwater regulations. Information provided by the Virginia Beach City Public Schools staff indicates that the number of students anticipated with the proposed residential development will be within an acceptable threshold for increases in student population. Further details pertaining to the application, as well as Staffs evaluation, are provided in the attached Staff Report. • Recommendation: On December 14, 2022, the Planning Commission passed a motion to recommend approval of this request by a vote of 9 to 1. • Attachments: Staff Report and Disclosure Statements Location Map Proffer Agreement Minutes of Planning Commission Hearing Letters of Support (2) Online Petition of Opposition (Link Only - https://www.change.org/p/delay- approval-for-kemps-river-shopping-center-re-zoning?redirect=false) List of Public Outreach Dates Kemps River Crossing Water Quality Improvement - CIP 100161.007 Recommended Action: Staff recommends Approval.

The Comprehensive Plan supports enhancement of existing commercial centers through means of innovative products, services, and design. The proposal provides mixed-use opportunities, and in Staff's opinion, preserves the quality and character of the neighborhood while providing convenience services for the community and residents within the development. Given that the area is surrounded by commercial uses, creating a diverse mixed-development will help to support the retail uses being maintained, and would comply with the Comprehensive Plan recommendation. Impacts to surrounding residential uses is limited as this portion of the shopping center is surrounded by commercial uses. The applicant was encouraged to incorporate affordable housing component with the redevelopment and opted to only offer market rate housing. Staff recognizes the benefits to redeveloping this shopping center, where more than half of the available leasing space is vacant, into a vibrant mixed-use community. The proposal will also reduce traffic impacts in this area.The applicant provided a Traffic Impact Memorandum for review. Staff agrees with the conclusion of the memorandum which states a Traffic Impact Study is not warranted for this project as the proposed development will generate less traffic than the shopping center and the established roadway network and access points can accommodate the proposed development.The memorandum shows the proposed development will reduce the trip generation by 5 percent during the AM peaks and 42 percent during the PM peaks when compared to the existing by- right commercial uses on-site. A Soil Test was completed for the site and yielded low level of solvents from an adjacent drycleaning business that operated nearby since 1985. The site has been entered into the Voluntary Remediation Program Manager with the Department of Environment Quality (DEQ). As a remediation, a vapor mitigation system may be designed during the construction of the apartments.The applicant and environmental consultant will continue to coordinate with DEQ to ensure any contaminant found on the site will be properly mitigated as required by state and federal regulations. Between the existing paving and structures,the site is currently entirely impervious. The proposed development,with the added greenspaces will reduce the impervious cover on the site,thereby meeting the stormwater quantity requirements. According to the applicant, stormwater quality requirements will be meet by utilizing manufactured Bonney's Corner Associates, LLP Agenda Item 2 Page 3 filtering devices where possible and through the purchase of off site nutrients credits. Final design and details of the stormwater system will be completed during site plan submittal to ensure compliance with all applicable stormwater regulations. Information provided by the Virginia Beach City Public Schools Staff indicates that the anticipated number of students with the added residential development will be within an acceptable threshold for increases in student population. Based on the considerations described, Staff recommends approval of the rezoning application with the proffers listed below. Proffers The following are proffers submitted by the applicant as part of a Conditional Zoning Agreement (CZA).The applicant, consistent with Section 107(h) of the City Zoning Ordinance, has voluntarily submitted these proffers in an attempt to "offset identified problems to the extent that the proposed rezoning is acceptable," (§107(h)(1)). Should this application be approved,the proffers will be recorded at the Circuit Court and serve as conditions restricting the use of the property as proposed with this change of zoning. Proffer 1: The redevelopment of this portion of Kemps River Shopping Center will be responsive to the changing needs of the retail and small office markets.

The next order of business is the regular agenda. Madam Clerk, we're ready for the first item. Madam Clerk: Thank you, Mr. Chairman. Agenda item #2 Bonney's Corner Associates, LLP. It's an application for a Conditional Rezoning B-2 Community Business District to a Conditional B-4 Mixed Use District at 1385 Fordham Drive in Council District 1, formerly the Kempsville District. Mr. Nutter: Thank you, Mr. Chairman. It's a pleasure to be here. My name is RJ Nutter. I'm attorney representing the applicant Bonney's Corner Associates. First, let me thank the staff who did an awful lot of work on this application. Dealt with Hoa, asked more questions than there are pages to his report, but that always works out in everyone's benefit because you get the facts out right away. I've represented this client for a number of years, and this is a 1970s version shopping center, and its zoned B-2, the interior portion is just over 20 acres as he indicated to you, and the problem they've been facing is the same problem that's been facing many large retail centers across the country, and in particular in this Hampton Roads area. The larger box locations on this facility had been vacant now for several years to a point where it not only impacted the loss of revenue from those players, but it was also affecting the bottom line of every one of the single remaining mom and pop shops. They'd lost the people that had directed the traffic to their center. So, after they started losing some of those, we started meeting with city leaders about how to deal with this as it was an issue that was coming forth to the country of all about the same time in 2019, 2020. With the advent of Amazon and other retailers of that nature, shops like this, were having considerable trouble. So, at that time, we actually met with the mayor, and we met within the district, Representative Jessica Abbott. We met with the then Planning Commission representative for that area, Mr. Weiner. We met with Mrs. Wooten who represents the adjacent area, and it worked through all of that with them, and they all understood the problem, and all wanted to be supportive how we move forward with this application. With that in mind, we then filed an application with the city almost two years ago, that application went through a wide variety of staff review, and we put it on hold for a while because there was some possibility of city putting some uses in the property, we put it on hold, none of those uses came to fruition, and the situation at the center has gotten worse. We were at that point about 40% vacant, we're now over 57. In fact, the number I have is 57%. I'm not going to quibble with Ross 46%- 56%, but it's a considerable problem, and so that presents, how do you then preserve this center from going further down the tubes. We then in addition to that, we're working with staff, we then started a program of outreach to the various departments and other agencies that would have an impact here. Those being the traffic department, those being storm water, all of those agencies we tried to reach out to make sure we understood their issues. Now, I will tell you that we're happy to have staff recommendation of approval, it did not come lightly, they went through every issue you can think of, and we've also, the benefits of that issue, we maintain a traffic level for people inside the center. Now all of a sudden, the people who live in these apartment complexes can go directly to the retail shops directly there, and the nice part about that and this is not reflected in the traffic report all the way. The nice part about that is that that's going to reduce traffic impact even further and drive up the ability of the small shops to stay in business. The traffic report we did do, assume that it was a freestanding multifamily project, independent of this of a shopping center. So, they would assume that everyone lived in that shopping complex would drive off site, to retail shops, to restaurants, to the movie theaters, all the features to which they can walk inside the center. In fact, it's really just taking this old shopping center, and making a mixed use center, like we're used to seeing more and more frequently throughout your application process. So, the benefit of this application is not just to the centers owners and their tenants of that center, but it also stopped the decline of the center, which was a major factor when we met with the Acredale Civic League, which is a large Civic League. David knows very well. This is just to the north of this site, and with well over 600 homes, and they were there to express exact same concern what happens if we don't do something like this? So, we're happy to have Mr. Noles letter in support, and met with our Civic League executive committee. Rocky Holcomb attended that meeting. David unfortunately had a conflict that evening, couldn't attend, but I did want to let you know that. The other benefits in addition to the tenant preservation and holding on to the shopping center, this actually reduces traffic from what that would be if it were developed in a commercial manner. David said during the internal meeting earlier today, he was there when the shopping center was fully operational and knows the impacts of it. This will actually reduce the traffic on that situation. In addition to that we've introduced a large amount of landscaping and open space on the site. Currently, there's this is 100% impervious cover, 100%. Today, we are introducing a reduction of almost two acres of that area, putting it into green space,walkways, park areas, and perimeter landscaping, none of which really exists on the site today. As you can see from the exhibit that is all around me, as a matter of fact, I just noticed that the only way I can see it is by the way is the fact we've introduced a really cool features through the center, which I want to thank Hoa for it was his idea to come up with a walkway through the center to connect the two areas of the of the multifamily. So that's been a really nice addition to this, in addition to all the things I've already mentioned. So there you have an application, staff recommend approval, got to preserve the shopping center, reduce traffic and reduce the amount of impervious area by over two acres, which is a considerable benefit to all the areas around it in terms of how much water comes off the site. In addition to that, we heard from Lake James Civic Association, we had a meeting with them just about just about two weeks ago, and a large group from them attended a meeting in my office and went through these issues and so forth. So their concern and I'm sure they're going to express it is the lake in their backyard, which is regional storm water pond, actually its purpose, but we understand it's a significant benefit to them. So, we told them about the reduction in the amount of acreage that we'd be taking and converting from impervious to pervious, and we told them, we'd also be participating in the state's programs for water quality. Since that time, they asked us to look at a program that the city was doing, which at that time, I didn't know anything about which there's a program, actually an approved program called the Kemps River Water Quality Improvement Project. I didn't know about it. Mr. Weiner knew, and I'm not about either. I've come to find out it's fully funded by the city, its intent is to take large portions of this area and make a heavy treatment process for it, independent private property owners. Again, it's fully funded by the city to this date. I told the Civic League this morning that upon learning about it, we advise the city we would participate in that process, because we think it would be do a little better, so we do plan on participating in that, which will affect directly the quality of the water going into the lake. So finally, I will add that we're aware of a petition, and that's been passed around, who have no contact with any of the people involved in the petition, but it complaints about this on the basis of impact on schools, and the report already indicates that the schools are well, this is well inside the capacity of all three schools serving this area. They were concerned about flooding, they obviously didn't know, we were reducing the amount of water on the site considerably, and they were concerned about, let's see, and traffic, they didn't know about the traffic study. So that's part of the problem with the petition like this is they get going without any the knowledge of the facts. You have no way of reaching it back to them in a meaningful way, but I did want to know that the concerns raised in that petition have all been addressed not just by the applicant but confirmed by your staff. So, I'm happy to answer any questions you might have, and I appreciate your time this afternoon, Mr. Wall as always. Mr. Wall: Thank you. Are there any questions for the applicant? No, Madam Clerk, are there any speakers? Madam Clerk: Yes sir, Mr. Chairman, we have seven registered speakers, five are in person, and two are WebEx. Calling Peggy Sansone to be followed by Don Davis. Ms. Sansone: Good afternoon. My name is Peggy Sansone, and I'm the Lake James Environmental Committee Chair, and HOA board member. I'm here today representing the views of the Lake James Homeowners Association. I would also like at this moment to recognize how many people from Lake James have attended here today if you could please stand. To give you an idea of the concerns that our community have, a lot of them have taken time off from work many, many more wanted to attend, but given the day and the hour, it was difficult for them to do this. Thank you. I also want to thank the Commission for giving me the opportunity to speak to you about this proposed Kemps River Apartment Project, and its impact on Lake James. The Lake James community is 37 years old, and our community has spent the past 30 years caring for and being passionate and fierce stewards of our lake. Lake James is a unique community. It is 100-acre freshwater lake, originally created from underground aquifers in a sand borrow pit. Even though Lake James does have a BMP designation, Lake James is a privately owned lake by the residents and the HOA. Residents move to Lake James because of its amenities. Our residents enjoy swimming, boating, and all water recreational activities. Good fishing there too. We pay higher property taxes for waterfront property. We all pay our city storm water management fees. I invite you to go to the Lake James website for more information on our particular community. It's www.lakejamesvb.com. Our community spends $1000s every single year on professional water quality testing and treatment. We are very, very good stewards of our lake. We educate our community. We encourage people to use zero or less lawn products, maintain riparian buffers, scoop the poop, shoo away domestic waterfowl, and do anything we can to try to maintain the health of our lake. Several years ago, we purchased installed a floating island which uptakes nutrients in the water, and this summer we installed a floating boom to help collect trash. We've worked with the City of Virginia Beach to correct problems over the years. I can also direct you to the Virginia Beach Public Works website under storm water management to view Lake James water discussion. We also have enlisted the help of Old Dominion Environmental Sciences Department, the Virginia Department of Health, and the Virginia DEQ, Army Corps of Engineers, Elizabeth River Project, Lynnhaven Now, the Virginia Aquarium Testing Program, and many more experts. Lake James Environmental Committee has also trained and attended webinars on lake quality management. This is the culmination since 1999 op until 2022. This is the culmination of just the work of the Lake James Environmental Committee. I'm the archivist that gets stuck rolling the books around. There is still more left at home. I just couldn't bring any more. We recently did meet as Mr. Nutter indicated with the developer's representatives to discuss our concerns about storm water. We were pleased to hear from him this morning that indeed that they are going to be working with the city for this planned storm water improvement that's going to be located at Kemps but we really do need more than just that one tapping into that system. The shopping center is a large contributor of storm water runoff in the lake. Large volumes of untreated water have contributed to the pollution, and the nutrient overloads in our lake over the years. New businesses that have come to the Indian River and Kempsville Road corridor have implemented a variety of storm water management practices, specifically, Chick-fil-A, Care-A-Lot Pet Center, Walgreens and Aldi on Kempsville Road. If you go and visit any of those sites, you will find that they have implemented one or more various kinds of storm water strategies to include inline collection of their storm water on their site, dry swales and filter systems, they're all very good examples of how all types of businesses can do more. In order for the Lake James HOA and community to support this proposed rezoning and development plan much more needs to be done by the developer to implement a variety of systems to specifically hold as well as filter the storm water before it enters into Lake James, and downstream the Elizabeth River, and eventually getting to the Chesapeake Bay. The use of nutrient credits is not acceptable to the Lake James community. In the scientific literature on storm water management, you will see cited one of the primary goals of storm water management is to treat the source and four bays are identified as an excellent type of way to do that. Storm water management is necessary to not only mitigate nutrient overload, pollution and harmful algae blooms, but also to manage and prevent flooding. Uncontrolled large volumes of storm water that have entered into Lake James over the years have caused damage to our docks and our bulkheads. Docks are submerged. They stay submerged, the wood rots out, high water levels get back behind bulkheads, the soil softens, the pressure causes the bulkheads to fall over. This is something that we have wrestled with for years. The holding and filtering of storm water at Kemps River redevelopment will be a very important step in preventing flooding and preventing property damage. Recommended storm water management by our Lake James HOA include the use of dry swales, rain gardens, mini wetlands with four bays, inline containment of storm water, filter systems. We would like to see a variety of these different types of systems installed at the Kemps River Project. Examples of these types of storm water management systems can be viewed as I previously mentioned Chick-fil-A, all these and what have you, but I've also compiled a list, and just a drive around of this city, and 23 items on this list. It's just a quick cursory look rolling around the city of where I saw many, many different types of storm water management implemented in all different types of businesses, and what have you. I'd like to draw your attention especially, I'll hand copies of this over to item #9, if anyone could visit, including the Lowes on Virginia Beach Boulevard and Parker Street, down south past where Lynnhaven enters into Virginia Beach Boulevard. That's an excellent example. In the corner of their parking lot, they've created a wet pond with plantings, it's fenced off if they're worried about someone falling in, but it's a very, very good example of how they have with treating curb cuts and inline piping, they draw off the storm water off their parking lot into this contained area. Alright, if this project is to be approved, we are concerned about the demolition and construction debris blowing in our neighborhood, flowing into our lake during storms. Necessary steps for containment would be necessary. In conclusion, we don't want to see a blighted area over there at Kemps River. We would like to see a nice development. Two, we still have concerns about that increased traffic on Indian River Road. We worry a lot about the ingress and egress in and out of our neighborhood which is still problematic at this time. We request that the Centerville Turnpike Improvement Project that was promised in 2013 be reactivated, and received an email this morning saying apparently they are starting that project back up because specifically just for me to finish my point, it will help considerably as congestion will stack up as you have a stack up lane of people coming down Indian River to turn left to go into their apartment complex. People get irritated, don't want to wait to go down to the next two light cycles to get to Kempsville, so historically, what we've already experienced, everybody cuts through Lake James. It's so bad as indicated by the City of Virginia Beach and their and their traffic calming programs; we were able to get speed bumps, speed tables installed in our neighborhood to try to cut down on the volume of traffic, and the terrible speeding. So, it's good to hear that about the Centerville Turnpike. Lastly on our conclusions, most importantly, we want to have strong and effective multiple storm water management to help us protect the lake. The final site plan should include a variety of filtering devices as I previously cited specifically to not just filter, but to hold the storm water before it is flushed into the lake. The City of Virginia Beach should take this and every opportunity to implement storm water management at all development sites. Every storm water practice, whether large or small, every little bit helps. Please help us keep our lake healthy. We have labored 20 plus years to try to keep our lake clean and safe. There's only so much we can do just as private citizens, we need your help. Lake James is not a community with a little old sediment pond. Our Lake is a vibrant 52-foot deep water body with numerous fish, turtles, and other marine species. We have great blue herons, ospreys, bald eagles, the migratory ducks have arrived. To include we have coots, hooded mergansers, buffleheads, painted ducks, and once in a while we get pelicans. River otters are also visitors to our lake. We need your help to protect this important resource and ecosystem. Lastly, we request the Planning Commission please defer their decision on this rezoning request until the Lake James Community, the City of Virginia Beach, and the developer can come to an acceptable agreement on effective storm Management. Thank you so very much. Mr. Wall: Alright, thank you. Mr. Weiner: I have got a question. So you're fine with what the other businesses on Indian River Road, Chick-fil-A, Petco, all of those are done, and those were built before the water regulations that are in place now today. So what they're gonna have to get this development goes through the strict water regulations that they're gonna have to follow is a large percentage of that water has to stay on site. It can't go anywhere. So this is just and what I got to say, I would be more concerned about what's going on now than what would be because what would be would be a filtration system and it has to stay on site. You'll get less water into your lake in the future, if this is developed, and I'm going to say what a City Council person said, he's no longer with us, and I stole his line. The best way to fix storm water or not fix storm water, but to work on storm water is to redevelop. Okay, so that to me, I would be more concerned about what's going on now than what could be in the future. Ms. Sansone: We are concerned because that Kemps River Shopping Center was built 30 years ago, as you said, before, we had all these environmental regulations, and even an understanding of nutrient overloads flowing into water bodies. Now is the time if that shopping center is to be torn up, this is the time given what we know, and have today by technology, some are very low tech, you create dry swales, that means you bulldoze out a shallow area, you plant grass on it, and you allow curb cuts or you allow means for storm water to run over to it, and boom, you've got holding and you've got filtering of storm water. Mr. Weiner: I agree with you 100%. That's what I'm just stating, I agree with you. Ms. Sansone: Thank you. Mr. Wall: Mr. Redmond. Mr. Redmond:So, would you not agree that it's an improvement of the site? Not just for the architecture, and the mixes uses and alright, but it is going to create two more acres of impervious where there is none, wouldn't not that be an improvement? Ms. Sansone: It's an improvement. It's not enough. The flat grassy areas which have that minimal absorption, grassy areas in the literature have minimal absorptions. It's good. It's better than pavement, but it has minimal absorption. Mr. Redmond: I'm not sure how you can suggest that. If we just keep going on with 100% impervious cover on that site, and all that implies until mythically agreement is reached. That's going to be a better outcome than to make improvements on the site today. Mr. Nutter says you've been talking since Jessica Abbott was on Council, I have no confidence whatsoever that that day of agreement ever comes? I mean, it just it hasn't yet. Is it ever going to be enough? So I mean, I recall the Lowes when it was developed, and that was not 100% impervious cover, they had to put a pond there for a reason, right? So it's not they did because it was fun, or they did it out of the goodness of their heart, seems to me, this is in many, many, many, many ways, an enormous improvement today, including in terms of its environmental by virtue of the pervious that's to be created, and the applicant's participation in the city program of which I was unaware as well. So we all learn things every day. It seems to me that it's just it's on its face as it is an improvement environmentally for what runs off anywhere, including to Lake James, I just, I'm missing this, tell me what it is, and apparently, you've got no formula other than a list of who filled this system, and that system, and all corner thing, none of which is certain. What is certain to me is it's an improvement. Ms. Sansone: Okay, your question being, would we prefer a decaying shopping center over? Mr. Redmond:Would you prefer that which exists today over an improvement, a significant improvement of that which is exists today? They're going to create pervious cover, and they're going to participate in the City's program. Again, I don't know much about it, but you seem to don't like that idea as well that seems to be very, very significant, and when you add in the other benefits where's the no brainer is kind of kind of my question is improvement is improvement. It gets better. I don't know that, uh, you know, that kind of a, you know, a mythical sort of better state that exists than one that's being offered today, because it's pretty good objectively. Ms. Sansone: In response, the Kemps River Project would be a good project, but it needs more in terms of storm water holding and filtration. That is the issue that we have, we do not like a decaying shopping center over there. It would be an improvement, but it's a large 20 acre parcel which 100% drains into our lake. Mr. Redmond:Well, I got that part, thanks. By the way, that two acres that's to hold Chick-fil-A properties, and that's a significant piece of improvement, so anyway, I thank you for your time. Ms. Sansone: Thank you. Mr. Frankenfield: Maybe as a comment, I wonder if Bobby, if you could help us understand. don't believe this did a preliminary storm water analysis, which was not required, but when they go through the storm water site plan process, won't these methods - swales, rain gardens, will be considered for the project. In other words, it's not going to do nothing. They're going to do some of these things. Mr. Tajan: That's correct, through the site plan review process it will still have to meet our storm water management standards. I think that's where Mr. Weiner was also alluding to, because the site is completely impervious, there is an option for a 10% reduction in impervious cover, which meets those standards to do the reduction as called out in the state regulations. Also, the staff will be checking to see if it meets that reduction too. So, it could be possible that the 10% reduction, which is about approximately two acres has been called out, will meet that along with some type of inline device that could easily be associated with this project. In other words, there'd be some type of water quality device that could be installed prior to it going downstream into Lake James as noted by the speaker. So,there are multiple ways to do it, and they could do it with, like I said, a structured device underground or some type of other above ground system, but that that will be vetted through the site plan review process in our department, and Development Services Center. Mr. Weiner: Okay, Mr. Tajan, I don't know if you'd know about this or not. Is there any way you can tell us something about this Kemps River Water quality improvement program is? Is there a short answer to that? Mr. Tajan: Other than I found those CIP lists here from November 2022. I don't know if someone from Public Works has any background to it, but there is apparently a timeline of doing some construction that's scheduled from November 23 to August 24. To do a pretty good level pollutant removal going into Lake James looks like there's a total phosphorus removal of almost five pounds and the suspended solids of 714 pounds per year. So not an insignificant project, looks like it's totaled at almost $600,000 to do these improvements. We could share that with the Commission. I just found this right now. Mr. Wall: Okay, thank you. Next speaker. Madam Clerk: Don Davis, followed by Don Hawker. Mr. Davis: Don Davis also from Lake James. Mr. Weiner to answer your question, the tie in from the Kemps River storm drains, all goes into 184 inch pipe that leaves the interior of Kemps River and goes into Lake James,which is where the Kemps River project is going to be built. That is going to be placed where all of the internal drains come in. It's going to filter out the trash and the rubbish and phosphorus, and to remove that prior to going into like, which is the reason that we were hoping that the builder would work with the city to tie the drains in as the construction evolves. Instead of, you know, this ending up being two separate projects. As said, there's 184 inch pipe that encompasses the entire area there. So that project has been put off I think three different times, it was supposed to have been completed three years ago, and now the new due date is I think 2025, or something like that. Nonetheless, I think so our biggest concern is that the other thing that was mentioned was pursuing of the credits for what am I looking for, yeah, pollution credits. They can either put in work with the city, put in swales, and things like that, but we can't stand for purchasing pollution credits through bypass. Treat our lake fairly, and all the residents, and that's not going to be tolerable. That's all have. Thank you. Mr. Wall: Okay, thank you. Are there any questions? Madam Clerk: Don Hawker, followed by Karen Nuszkiewicz. Mr. Hawker: Good afternoon. My name is Don Hawker. I live in Lake James on a lake at the north end very close to where this project is going to be constructed. Between my house and my neighbor's house is a City right of way for a drainage ditch that carries the storm water to the lake, and when we get these big rainstorms, stepped out of my back door, and I watch the water gushing into the lake, carrying with it paper, plastic, styrofoam, aluminum cans, glass. Some things are fairly embarrassing, they have been floating in my lake, and when the rain stops, and the birds are done swimming around all the garbage, and they go off, we go down to our lake with our nets and start scooping out all the garbage that the City flushed into our lake. It's not very pleasant when you have friends over in the backyard for a cookout or kayaking or swimming, and I have to get my net real quick to scoop garbage out of the lake so my friends can swim in it. So I understand that tearing up pavement, and putting down grass will reduce the amount of water, but adding 300 homes, 600 cars, 1000 people, and a bunch of shops that presumably have dumpsters behind them and they're emptied at four or five o'clock in the morning, you should come by some time when they're emptying the dumpsters, the ones near Chick-fil-A not at Chick-fil-A, and we get the five o'clock clang, wake up call. So all of this, I suspect is going to add to the amount of garbage in the streets, which means it's going to add to the amount of garbage that I'm fishing out of my lake. Now if I come by your house sometime this evening, with my happy meal, finished eating it and I tossed my trash in your backyard. I don't think you would like that very much, but the city does that to me after every rainstorm, the big ones, not the low ones. So, I would like some assurances, I don't know what you could possibly give me that all of this development and construction and the additional cars, people and restaurants, and shops will not increase the garbage I have to fish out of my lake. In addition, when the developer says that all these houses, cars, people, and shops will reduce traffic that does not build my confidence because that doesn't pass the smell test. There's a Chick-fil-A that we just added, and I like it, I eat there myself, and they're closed on Sunday, but to suggest that Chick-fil-A reduced the amount of traffic is insane. Trying to get into Lake James, if you're coming down heading west is difficult because of the five cars in front of you;four of them want to do a U-turn to go get their chicken. So, we do have traffic problems, and we do have storm water problems, and we have been asking for a very long time for the city to do something about all the garbage. Some guy drives by toss the cigarette butt out the window, a couple of days later, I'm fishing it out of the lake. So, I don't oppose this project at a genetic level. I mean it would be nice if they had nice shops, nice housing, a nice peaceful neighborhood, and that thing sitting there undeveloped is not good for us. It's not good for the city. Something sooner or later is going in there, but I want something that's not going to damage what I have worked so hard to own. Thank you. Mr. Wall: Thank you. Are there any questions? Mr. Weiner: How long have you been living in the house? Mr. Hawker: We bought it in 1992. I've been here 30 years, it's paid for. Mr. Weiner: Okay. I've been in an area for 30 years myself and I know what it's like when Farm Fresh was at full speed and K-mart was full speed and could you imagine the Chick-fil-A there then, when that was in full speed? It would have been crazy, but I mean, I understand what you're talking about trash, and I get it. I got to believe that a lot of that comes from inward road, not from Kemps River Shopping Center right now. So, this developer, he's very well known, if this does go through, it'll be a very well development. It's going to be taking care of people that are doing apartments, want to make sure it's taken care of because they can lease them, if they're rundown, so they're going to be taken care of very well. There's a lot of things we're gonna talk with the applicant about, but I think I think this is a very big improvement on what's what is there now? Mr. Hawker: Well, it would certainly be an improvement in terms of aesthetics, and the tax base of the city, and if there are nice shops, I can walk right across the street and take advantage of them, which is why not just hardcore opposed to this, but I'm not inclined to have someone say, "oh, we'll take care of that" and then do something which may or may not be detrimental to me. I'm trusting them; I'm basically at their mercy. If they build it and it doesn't work out. I know we've had some developers do construction projects that turned out to be flood problems, and the city had to go in and pay millions of dollars to fix their mistakes. So if this is another mistake, are you going to come up with all the money to fix my lake? Mr. Weiner: Now, that was a learning lesson and our water restrictions today are more strict than the State's water restrictions, and City of Virginia Beach is stricter than State. Mr. Hawker: Water quality? Mr. Weiner: No, keeping storm water on the site. Mr. Hawker: Including trash and what ever else? Mr. Weiner: Yes. Mr. Hawker: So next time it rains and my lake gets flooded, and it's flushing all this garbage in there, and I take videos of it. Can I send you the videos, will you look at them? Mr. Weiner: Sure. Mr. Hawker: Okay. Mr. Wall: Thank you, anybody else? Madam Clerk: Karen Nuszkiewicz, followed by Lavinia Hankins. Ms. Nuszkiewicz: Hello, my name is Karen Nuszkiewicz. I've lived in Homestead, which is right less than a mile from Kemps River since 1977, and the first thing I was going to talk about was the storm water that I think that's been talked about enough. I would like to also add that I don't think nutrient credits are the answer; it seems to me, you're taking the problem, and just putting it somewhere else. My main concern with this project is the cost to the taxpayers. I'm sure all of you as homeowners in Virginia Beach, when you stroke to that check in December, you realize that you never truly own your home. So my problem with this is the cost to the taxpayer scope, the impact is going to be 3 million. I'm really not opposed to the project. Looks like it would be pretty nice with some greenery and stuff, but I think before this is approved experts, which I'm obviously not, experts to look at this and see how to mitigate the impact on the taxpayers. I think I said everything, please let experts look at the impact of the taxes on us. Mr. Wall: Okay, are there any questions? Mr. Redmond: Sorry, I was just gonna say if you have not read this staff report, I urge you to do so. You can have my copy if you like because I have the staff for each one of the applications that comes before us and subsequently to then to City Council produces a report and they are experts, and they pull in a whole bunch of information, and that's a good place to start to. Too seldom does anybody read that? And so, you're more than welcome to have mine. Ms. Nuszkiewicz: When you say staff report, are you talking about what came from traffic? Mr. Redmond: Correct, Mr. Tajan's Department of Planning Community Development does a summary of each one of these applications and lays out the effects for schools and all that stuff. Ms. Nuszkiewicz: I read them. That's how I found out school impact would be about million. As far as population, the schools can absorb it, that is not a problem, because I think we are under populated. We are going to get priced out of our home, if these taxes continue going up. Mr. Redmond: Okay, thank you. Madam Clerk: Lavinia Hankins followed by Thomas Etter. Ms. Hankins: My name is Lavinia Hankins. I am a business owner in the Kemps River Shopping Center, and my concern is the integrity of the information that's been shared with us as business owners, and whether or not the full process has been integral. So this is the second time that I've heard of this project in the past year. So the first time I was tipped off by somebody who works at the Outback, and when presented it to the property manager, I asked her about it, and she gave me a solid, this is I don't know how you heard that or what you heard or, you know, but that's not true. Nothing's happening with the shopping center, and then God, the Universe, whoever you guys choose to believe in, came to me again, because my customers actually came in and told me that "Hey, have you seen that there's a meeting about the upcoming project of a shopping center?"Okay, no, no one's told me, I haven't heard anything from the manager, from the leasing agent, or anyone affiliated with this application. So that concerns me, because I have presented on multiple occasions to the manager about opportunities to bring in more traffic, which my business actually brings in a very niche group of people who are exposed to the shopping center through my restaurant, and also we pass a lot of traffic back and forth to the planet fitness that's also in the shopping center, along with all the other businesses. So we do a lot to support the local businesses and the other businesses that are in the shopping center. I have presented a Farmer's Market that would bring in a ton of traffic. Based on my model, I do have documentation that I presented this to the manager, and she presented it to the owners in which they declined. I offered to acquire this space next door, and to as an opportunity to expand the business and to create more foot traffic and opportunity for patrons to come into the shopping center, and I just did want to bring up that the attorney for this application representing this application said that two years ago, they applied for this project, and two years ago, I signed the lease, and so again, integrity, honesty. I didn't open my doors until September 2020, and I signed the lease in June or July of 2020. So at that time, it could have been disclosed to me that this was something that was being done to the shopping center. I just want to know how this is gonna affect the businesses. Now, I have seen this successfully happen at some point in Chesapeake and in other places. Mr. Wall: Are there any questions? Mr. Weiner: Yes, I have a question. What is your business address? Ms. Hankins: 1309 Fordham Drive, Suite 106. Mr. Weiner: Where it is located? Ms. Hankins: In the core of the shopping center, in the corner on the side of Rainbow, caddy corner to Outback Steakhouse directly across from Planet Fitness. Mr. Weiner: Mr. Tajan, is there a sign per street? Mr. Tajan: Yes, there was a requirement to post the signs on the three different streets. Mr. Weiner: And you didn't see those yellows signs of placards on that? Ms. Hawkins: Absolutely not. Mr. Redmond: I am sorry, I didn't hear you, what the name of your business? Ms. Hawkins: Culture Vegan Joint. Mr. Redmond:Okay, thank you. Ms. Hawkins: I do want to note that two years ago at my grand opening, Mayor Bobby Dyer, Councilwoman Sabrina Wooten, Councilman Michel Berlucchi, at that time, Jessica Abbott, and other prominent members were at my grand opening. Mr. Wall: Do you feel that this would negatively affect your business? Ms. Hawkins: Well, it's not that I disagree with the plans. It's that I would like notice as to how it's going to affect my business, the construction particularly, rising costs, is this going to raise my rent? Am I going to be grandfathered in? Do I have first right of refusal? What are my rights in this transaction? And is it really is it going to benefit my business? I am a black owned business as well in the city. So I feel like contribute a lot to the growing ideas for of business ownership in Virginia Beach. Mr. Redmond: I'm sorry. I just wanted to clarify because I'm kind of, are you in the same strip shop as Outback? Ms. Hawkins: Yes. Mr. Redmond: Okay, just wanted to verify that because that whole strip shop is staying, it is not been taken away. All your businesses are going to stay there. Ms. Hawkins: Again, I just want a disclosure, you know, as to exactly what's going on and how it's gonna affect us, some type of notice these are the things being presented, if you would like to know more, here's where you can go to find out. Mr. Wall: Okay, thank you. Anybody else? Madam Clerk: Thomas Etter, followed by Makayla Drew. Mr. Etter: Afternoon, my name is Tom Etter. I'm President of the Lake James Homeowners Association. We're located right across in New River Drive from this development, and hence our keen interest in this development. We have 247 homes, and a lake that we're very proud of, and we spend a lot of time recreating it. The Board of Directors met specifically on the subject. We did a lot of research. We talked to Mr. Nutter, and got a presentation from him, and our conclusion is this is no doubt, as you mentioned, a big improvement in that shopping center, and we therefore support the rezoning, but we have some conditions on which we support that rezoning, and this goes back to the storm water runoff issue, the environmental issue. We don't want to see the use of nutrient credits. Mr. Redmond you talked about? Well, this is a great, huge improvement. Why wouldn't you want anything more? Well, why stop at that. Mr. Frankenfield over there, and I are members of the Process Improvement Steering Committee for City Council, and I spend a lot of time advising them on process improvement initiatives, and how to do process improvement. One of the things that I always emphasize is, if you're not getting better, you're getting worse. You got to continuously improve, improve, improve or you're going backwards. So why wouldn't we stop at this improvement and then allow nutrients or nutrient credits the use of them to allow debris and contaminants to flow into the lake. So our approval is based on or contingent on not allowing nutrient credits and making sure that the storm water system redesign as part of the redevelopment as methods and means to prevent contamination and debris from flowing into Lake James. We are also concerned about traffic, and we recognize that the traffic will probably be less than what it was originally when the shopping center was put into operation, but it's going to be more than it is now, and so we would encourage the City to follow through with their January 2025 plan to expand. Mr. Wall: Are there any questions? Mr. Frankenfield: So just if we could just get to the bottom line of what your group is recommending, say you support the project, if you meet these conditions which are? Mr. Etter: We would like to see is in writing the requirement to not use nutrient credits to actually put into place, physical means of limiting and minimizing storm water from carrying debris, and contamination into Lake James. Mr. Frankenfield: Is there anything else? Mr. Etter: We'd like to see the City continue to go forward with their plan to expand Centerville Turnpike to four lanes which we think would help out with the traffic situation. Those are our two contingencies, the environmental one being more important. Madam Clerk: Our final two speakers are both WebEx, Makayla Drew followed by Drew Little. Ms. Drew: Good afternoon, my name is Makayla Drew. Thank you for hearing public comments on this today. I do appreciate the online accommodation which allows us to participate in the middle of the workday. I have been a Virginia Beach resident for over 13 years, and I live within one mile of the proposal area. While agree that a revitalization of sorts is needed in the shopping center, I do not believe that the current proposal has been fully explored and is not the best decision for the area at this time. I am in opposition of the proposal for the following three reasons. Reason #1, insufficient parking spaces. On page two of the proposal, the site plan shows that over 1000 parking spaces will be provided. However, page eight of the proposal only shows the minimum 922 parking spots, of these the parking spot surrounding the Panera and Dollar Tree will remain impacted by cars cutting through, and areas drive thru also impacts the parking spaces negatively as cars waiting in line make that area difficult to navigate. Furthermore the remaining Outback strip experiences heavy parking impacts almost every evening of the week. I'm uncertain that apartments will allow sufficient access to an already busy parking lot. Lastly, there are parking spaces counted behind the two commercial buildings that will remain. I feel it's unrealistic to count those spots. For example, people will not want to walk around a 35,000 square foot building to pick up dinner, two of the proposed apartments would be directly in front of the current commercial parking and create this additional impact. Reason #2, traffic impacts, according to the traffic memorandum while it is true that the proposed multifamily rezoning use may result in less traffic to use the existing traffic counts and the analysis can lead to an invalid conclusion as over 50% of the shopping centers are not currently being used in an active commercial capacity. Yet despite this traffic congestion continues in the surrounding roads, and you will find that the current traffic situation is already suffering without the shopping center impact that the memorandum seems to suggest. I implore you to take a drive to this area any time after 1 p.m. during the week to experience what I'm talking about. Additionally, the proposal indicates that traffic counts were not available for Fordham Drive, but this is the local street around a proposed area and many cars use it to make a U-turn to access the Post Office or cut around the previously mentioned traffic issues. Traffic counts for the secondary roads should be considered with a formal traffic study conducted based on the current percentage of commercial use, and reason#3, additional impacts,the proposal does not clarify who will pay for the Public Utility impact on page six. Based on my knowledge of the billing systems with both the City of Virginia Beach and HRSD, I would assume there may be some impacts to those of us most proximate, and I believe the nearby residents should know what those impacts could be because of the grip sewage charge we pay every month. In closing, I suggest further study and research into the proposal for the three areas of concern I mentioned here today before proceeding with the project, including insufficient parking, traffic impacts, and additional nearby resident impacts. Thank you for your time today. Mr. Wall: Okay, thank you. Are there any questions? Madam Clerk: Our final speaker is Drew Little. Mr. Little: My name is Drew Little. Thank you for the afternoon. A lot of what I've been concerned about has been covered. I do want to make a couple of quick notes. First of all, the petition that's been circulating is not about storm water, it is mostly about traffic, and the assertion by Mr. Nutter that people have not read the traffic survey is actually not correct. I've shared it many times myself and I've read it thoroughly myself. For most of the petitioners over 1300 now, the main concern is traffic. If you drive through this area, you know that it's a harrowing drive at peak periods. There's more than a 1000 foot backup northbound in Kempsville at peak periods, it's difficult to get in and out of Lake James. It causes backups onto the interstate, people who would normally take Indian River Road East; now take Indian River Road west across Reon and go down Providence causing further backups at Kempsville and Providence. All of the neighborhoods along the way are affected, Stratford Chase, Lake James, there they're all being used as cut through at high speed, and we can get no help from the police on this. It's very dangerous. The number one most dangerous intersection in Virginia Beach according to Virginia Beach Police is Indian River and Kempsville Road; it has 63% more crashes than the second most dangerous intersection. Two more of the most dangerous intersections are also in Kempsville, Baxter and Princess Anne and Indian River and Providence. Kempsville can't take more traffic and the traffic report is flawed. The study is flawed to say that 300 plus high density residences replacing vacant shops will reduce traffic by almost 30% is absurd on the face of it. The traffic study needs to be redone and the city needs to get engaged in mitigating traffic before any development is done that will increase traffic to the area, and that's really all I have to say. Thank you. Mr. Wall: Okay, thank you. Are there any questions for Mr. Little? Madam Clerk: No more speakers. Mr. Wall: Mr. Nutter? Mr. Nutter: Thank you. Well, a couple of things I'd like to say up. First, I'd like to thank the residents of Lake James, because I believe that people who take their Lake seriously should be given a lot of credit. I hope they know that we've tried to give them a lot of credit, and as Mr. Weiner pointed out, we have to go through site plan review to get all of those issues. My point being that the reason we want it to tie on to the city's project is because the city's project is larger. What you may not know is that Lake James is also the recipient of water from Kempsville Road, from Indian River Road, all the shopping centers around that entire area all go into that lake. Our water goes into any river road before it goes into that lake. So the question is what's the best path? And that's what we've honestly tried to find. In fact, what Lake James residents suggested to me in our meeting was that we look into the city's program and see if we can participate in some way with that. In fact, I didn't know about the program until they referenced it, and we asked our experts to look at it. So we think that's the best approach. It will treat our water. It will treat water beyond just our limits before it goes into that lake. So I want you to know that we're on record as wanting to improve the water quality, not just reduce it, which is significant. I'll just tell you, I don't want to wipe that into the sweep that under the rug, that's a big thing, two acres of less impervious area is a big thing, but the other is the quality side, and we understand that, and that's why we think the participation with us in the city's program, which is going to spend about $600,000, according to the speaker, to help improve the water quality in that lake, we think that's the best bang for our buck in putting in that, that's where we're going, and by the way, we don't have to participate that at all. We don't have to do that at all, we can just go through the cycling process. So my clients are serious about wanting to help the people in Lake James. They're not going to be bearing 100% of the cost for everybody else along that roadway, and they shouldn't be, but we are willing to participate that, we've made that clear to them, we make it part of the record today. A couple of things I'd like to say, and you can call Mr. Loman for this, and that's the traffic issue because I think even Mr. Loman was sitting there agreeing with the traffic study that we've done in terms of the production and traffic, which is significant. Finally, I'd like to really apologize to believe it was Ms. Hankins, I hope I got her name, right, who's the tenant? I have no explanation of why the property managers didn't know about this application. So it's hard for me to find. So that shouldn't have happened, I'm sorry, and anything that they or the other tenants want to know, please contact me. I'm happy to tell them or the owners, and I'm sure the owners who are watching this presentation are going to be contacting the property managers probably within next hour about presenting this to the tenants that have not already been presented to apparently, because they're all valuable, and Mr. Weiner is exactly right, if she's in the same strip as the Outback, all those areas are staying, as you've seen in this exhibit. So, again, this is the best move forward. We believe that the applicants have presented a great case to you, and one that the neighborhoods honestly acknowledge. They acknowledge that something has to be done. They acknowledge it's getting better. We're just trying to find the best path because we know we've reducing traffic. We know we're not impacting the schools, and we know we're trying to do better on the storm water. So I think we can get there between the staff storm water review and the city's program. That's a great place to make a significant difference. I'm happy to answer any questions, Mr. Wall you or others might have on commission. Mr. Redmond:That lady who is a tenant who you just referred to had stepped out of the room while you spoke. Mr. Nutter: I'll see if I can find her. Mr. Wall: Anyone else? Mr. Nutter, I have got a couple of questions. So this storm water program, the $600,000 program, are you familiar with like the city's program, is it specifically for Kemps River? Mr. Nutter: It's surprisingly that money is specifically for Kemps River and the area right around it. Mr. Wall: You know what is going to entail? Mr. Nutter: I don't know the specifics. I know that the city is treating that water because they wanted to make sure that the runoff from those areas goes down, and they want to make sure that the water quality requirements are met. That's all I really know. But other than we've said, we will participate with them and which we don't have to do. We just felt like it, if you're going to spend money on for storm water, one I'd do it with a larger program that'll affect them, like at the end product of the lake, not just off our property in the Indian River Road, that's our thinking. Mr. Frankenfield: Check your email, sent out a nice CIP sheet for this particular project, and it clearly identifies a significant new treatment facility on Fordham Drive. I mean, it's a drop inlet treat treatment facility. So, it's in that location, it should be easy to work together on through the site plan process. I'm guessing that you are saying you will support this project, and work to a reasonable level on finding out how you can treat storm water better. You just have not gotten to that point yet, and it will be an extensive detailed process. Mr. Nutter: It is correct, and all the experts they're talking about are fortunately here at the city. Mr. Wall: Anyone else? The speakers mentioned one thing and they had to ask about the nutrient credits, would you be willing to proffer that nutrient credits wouldn't be used as storm water strategy, and when the site development plan is submitted to the city? Mr. Nutter: I don't know that I can yet because I don't know enough about the city's program. To be honest with you, I can tell you this, we want to make a difference, and we can do nutrient credits and do nothing, we don't even bother with the city's program. What we're telling you today is we will participate with the city's program, and that's a treatment program that's going to be an area larger than just us, and that's why we think it's more significant than just us putting in a few filters on the owner property, and then the water goes directly in Indian River Road, and that just seems to defeat the purpose. Mr. Wall: Okay, well, the nutrient credit, that's part of the State program, and it does get reviewed by them. The study is the review authority, but I mean, I think it would go a long way to you support the residents if you know if that was proffered. guess that's like somebody could buy nutrient credits for property and another watershed. Mr. Nutter: It's a significant benefit, and part of the reason why DEQ likes nucleon credit programs, by the way,just so you know is because too often people just put in our onsite storm water system, and it's not well maintained, or they put in filter systems, and they're not well maintained. Whereas if you have a credit program, it goes into a DEQ program where DEQ monitors, and it really does affect the storm water. So it's just a more regional basis, we're in the same watershed. But there are reasons why credits are important. We're not saying we're not going to use credits; we're not going to say we are using credits, what we are going to say is we're gonna participate in the City's program was to design to treat the water from there directly coming off us and Fordham Road before it goes into it Kempsville Road, and that is what we are saying. We think it's better than that. We can ride on tails with $600,000 project, versus putting stuff on our own. I mean, it's just, that's a great, that's a great opportunity, and we didn't know about it until they told us about it, so. Mr. Wall: Anybody else? Mr. Horsley: Other than I have utmost respect for what the City is in this storm water program. I mean, we've wrestled with this for many, many years, our program in the City of Virginia Beach far exceeds the State program, and I just don't think you can get much better. I mean, developers are harping on us about how stringent a program it is, and they, you know, but that's the way we are in the city. We are very stringent on the storm water regulations. I will thank you Mr. Nutter, but I want to hear from Mr. Lowman because I want him to address his traffic issue that so many people seem to think and they got too big applause when a man said somebody in traffic, I want Mr. Lowman to explain this traffic situation. Mr. Wall: We'll get to traffic here in a second afterwards, but I think Ms. Wilson, do you have some concerns? Ms. Wilson: I just have a common one. So, I think I need to insert here. Proffers are offered voluntarily, and we can't really ask Mr. Nutter for a proffer. Don't use the word. If you mean willing to say that, but we cannot require proffers, proffers have to be voluntarily done, and our storm water system is going to require what our regulations require. You're not really going to require any more than that, but our regulations are the stiffest in Virginia, and so, we believe that we have got them stiff enough to reduce pollutants and reduce quantity. Mr. Wall: Okay, thank you Ms. Wilson. So before we open it up to discussion among the Planning Commissioners, Mr. Lowman if you would mind coming up for a second. Mr. Lowman: Alright. Good afternoon, Ric Lowman, Public Works City Traffic Engineer. I guess I'll just address the traffic memo since that's probably you know what's causing some of this. The traffic memo we asked the developer to put this together, we'd already done an analysis like this ourselves, and we'd prove to ourselves that the commercial square foot... Mr. Redmond: Could you just for the benefit of the folks here, could you tell them your role here, what your job is Ric? Mr. Lowman: I am the City Traffic Engineer. So, the memorandum, basically, what it says is, when it's fully built out with the commercial space that's already out there. You know, this is how much traffic you could generate, and here's how much traffic you can generate with the uses that are proposed, which is keeping some of the commercial, but demolishing some of the commercial and replacing it with multifamily residential. You guys are very familiar with me discussing that commercial is the highest land use, besides the Chick-fil-A. Commercial is the highest land use that there is out there because you've got people coming and going, and it affects your p.m. peak hours specifically, because you got a lot of people coming to go into those shops during the PNP. Residential, not so much, residential is lower, especially multifamily residential, because you do have smaller family sizes, you do have smaller household sizes, so this 322 apartments is not the same as 322 single family houses, it's much less like to the 70% less than if it was a single family house, but the analysis that we had him do was based on a full shopping center, and if you guys remember, it's only been five years, since that shopping center was active with the farm fresh, which went out of business, the company went out of business, not the store, and the Kmart, which, I guess went out in 2017-2018, and the company went out of business, not the store. So it's still I mean, it's still a shopping center that could be redeveloped, and it could be cut up into smaller pieces, the big boxes in redevelop is a full shopping center again. So that's why we did what we did. I will tell you that when it is redeveloped with the 322 houses, it probably will have more traffic than there is now, but I could point back to the point that we've redesigned that intersection, and whether these people like it or not that intersection is much more efficient, and better than it was when we started with that intersection. Kempsville and Indian River was the worst intersection in the city, it was the most congested intersection in the city, and again, whether you like it or not, that intersection flows very, very well. If you have questions about that, I mean, I could certainly get into, I could talk for 20 minutes about that about why it's better, but I will say it again, by itself the 322 apartments and forget about the retail that is being demolished. By itself, the 322 apartments wouldn't require the developer to even do a traffic study, because it only generates like 140 trips in the peak hour just because of the nature of multifamily housing. So we wouldn't even require a traffic study, even if they weren't replacing that much retail, even if it's vacant. So I can answer one question that Mr. Etter, he asked, if Centerville, Phase II and Centerville Phase III, I mean, the City's always been moving forward on those projects. They did get slowed down because there's been drainage and some other issues, but Centerville Phase II is fully funded, and it is scheduled to begin construction in 2025 per the current CIP. I can't say that it's going to definitely start, but the City is moving that project forward. It is 100% fully funded, and I think private utility relocations are going to be starting very soon. Mr. Wall: Where is that section? Mr. Lowman: That is from Indian River Road, all the way to Kempsville Road. Mr. Wall: That is Phase II? Mr. Lowman: That is Phase II, Phase III is going to be taking it from Kempsville to just past Lynnhaven, but the big addition for Indian River Road with Centerville Phase II is, (a) it's going to take some people off of Kempsville to Indian River to get to the interstate because we're going to make that road --we're gonna make Centerville whole, and so people won't have to bypass Centerville like they do now, and #2, we're adding triple lefts from Centerville on to Indian River which is going to free some time up to give more to Indian River which will free that whole quarter up as well. So it does help Indian River, but the City is totally moving forward towards that. Any other questions? Mr. Wall: Alright, thanks. Alright,well, then I'm going to close the public discussion and open it up to the Planning Commissioners to discuss among yourselves, Mr. Weiner. Mr. Weiner: Mr. Chairman, before we start off, I want to recognize somebody that's in our audience here today. Mr. Dan Edwards, Mr. Edwards has been on the school board for well over 20 years, and was a past chair of the school board, and I just want to thank you for your well service that you did. Thank you very much, sir. So I've heard a lot today, and want to go a little deep here. I'm from this area. My wife and I bought a house in 1990 by Stumpy Lake, and then in 2001, we bought a house in Carolanne Farm. So this is my backyard. I've been here for 37 years also. I made a point in the last couple of weeks, because I knew this was going to come out, this was coming. So I knew in the last few weeks on at 5 o'clock, I made a point to go through this intersection. I may be the only who is going to say this, but I love this intersection. I think it's great, and I know y'all live closer to it than do, but I made a point to go into it, and did say informal, when Kmart was wide open and Farm Fresh was wide open and all the shops were there, it was hectic going through there, and even times it is hectic going through there anytime, but lately, it's nice, and I don't think traffic is a big issue. My opinion for this development, the storm water, I do have to say our storm water regulations are top notch, and a lot of this is going to be taken care of on site plan review, and I think you're gonna find out that what they do with this goes through by Council, we shouldn't be a problem with this whatsoever. This is not going to affect the schools, there's plenty of parking. I just don't see, nothing's really sticking out to me to say no to this, I just don't see it. So I'm gonna support it. Mr. Wall: Okay, thank you. Anybody else? Mr. Frankenfield. Mr. Frankenfield: So, what I'm reading is that it's amazing. If you look at this plan for the Kemps River Crossing, water quality improvement, it looks like it was made just for this project. I mean, it's on Fordham Drive, it's a drop in, I don't know how hard it would be to put another one in, but it's certainly really an ability for the developers to work with the City on this. I think the very positive plus, the when we go when they go through site plan, these issues are going to come up and they are going to address them. They're going to deal with a little bit of water quality, a little bit of quantity, and as somebody said, maybe it was David Weiner, redevelopment is a good thing. Redevelopment is a good thing for storm water. I know it's tough, it's a change, but this will definitely address a lot of the storm water issues and be very positive. I also think the traffic is not an issue, and I think the thriving development that is going to be in there with the residential, and the retail is going to be phenomenal. Very positive, great place to live, good combination of shopping and housing, so I also support this project. Mr. Wall: Okay, thank you. Anybody else? Mr. Coston: I've got one question. In light of how much water we now allowed to be removed from the property. I know we've been having a developer saying that we're very hard on storm water, how much water do we allow people to move off their property without being treated or retained on the property? Mr. Tajan: I'm going to try to answer this in a way that the public can understand. They cannot increase the flow and quantity of the water coming off the property than it does right now. So before predevelopment they cannot increase how much water comes off nor can they increase how fast it comes off the property, if that makes sense. With that they are all completely impervious at this point in time, so the state regulations as well as our storm water regulations have a specific cut out for those that do provide a 10% reduction in impervious surface because there is a definite quantifiable benefit of providing additional green space on the site. As we know, although it's chopped up, it is in two acre increment of the site, which is already 20 acres. So they may meet it in that fashion, but that will go through a full review process on our department. Mr. Wall: Alright, well, I've got a couple of things, and I know, I've been on Indian River in years past, and maybe it's been a while, and maybe there have been improvements, but I know it's been disheartening, you know, it is peak traffic hours trying to get through there. So, I'm certainly not immune to traffic problems that have in the area of Kempsville and Indian River Road, but I think it's been fairly well addressed, and I think that residential will, in general reduce the traffic compared to a built out shopping center. I think there are improvements in those regards. In terms of storm water, I'm not insensitive to storm water, I used to have a swimmer out in a triangle on Lake James, so familiar with the water quality, when it's when it can be bad, it's such a nice amenity for the homeowners in the area. So certainly, it can be seen why, the homeowners are fighting to maintain and improve that water quality in Lake James, but I think that the City's initiative and think that the developers initiative, so I think just the general reduction in impervious will, no matter what, make improvements over existing conditions. There's two major new items I think generally being addressed. I think I feel I'm gonna support the application as well. Mr. Redmond. Mr. Redmond: I move approval for agenda item #2. Mr. Wall: We have a motion for approval by Mr. Redmond and a second by Mr. Weiner. Madam Clerk: Vote is open. By a vote of 9 in favor, 1 against agenda item #2 has been recommended for approval.

Everyone in attendance was pleased with your presentation and the changes were better than we expected. We have been concerned for months about the vacant spaces in the shopping center and what it could attract. As we saw the presentation it was very similar to the changes to Kemps Landing School.

Do not click links or open attachments unless you recognize the sender and know the content is safe. Good afternoon, Mayor, Councilmembers and City Manager Speaking as a private citizen, and not as a representative of the Virginia Beach Council of Civic Organizations (VBCCO) or the Thalia Civic League, I have reviewed the Kemps River Shopping Center request for rezoning and,while I am suspect of some of the ITE traffic numbers propounded by the Virginia Beach Traffic Engineering Department, I believe that this is an excellent candidate for rezoning to B-4 multi-use of this property. The project does not have any adjacent established suburban neighborhoods, is surrounded by a public highway,similar to Lynnhaven Mall on which other B-2 businesses are located, provides additional market rate housing, provides more than the required parking spaces (901 versus 990+/-), does not appear to adversely impact traffic, addresses stormwater onsite through underground storage, while creating an additional 2 acres of permeable area, and appears to be of quality construction. I would ask the question of the Virginia Beach City School Demographer as to the cost to intake the additional children into the Virginia Beach City Public Schools Elementary, Middle and High Schools and would like to hear that number. Otherwise,this appears to be a good model for the City going forward when considering B-4 multi- family,especially because it does not adversely affect established suburban neighborhoods.

COUNCIL DISTRICT 2 MEETING DATE: June 20, 2023 (Deferred on April 4, 2023, 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 and deferred again on June 6, 2023 to address comments received from members of the Christopher Farms, Landstown Meadows, and Princess Anne Meadows. In response, the Design and Development Guidelines document was amended to include additional language that any existing mature, healthy vegetation within the required setback along Princess Anne Road shall be preserved and protected and that such vegetation could be used to satisfy the landscaping requirement along Princess Anne Road at the discretion of the Planning Department. 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", City of Virginia Beach Development Authority Page 2 of 4 • 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, • provide more guidance on light industrial and advanced manufacturing building types, and • protect the viewshed from Princess Anne Road by requiring parcels with frontage on Princess Anne Road to install additional landscaping along Princess Anne Road above and beyond what is required in the City's Landscaping Guide ■ 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. City of Virginia Beach Development Authority Page 3 of 4 Further details pertaining to the application, as well as Staffs 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. Proffers: Proffer 1: The Property is hereby removed and released from the Existing Proffers and said Property will now be subject to the proffers contained herein. Proffer 2: Excluding the Property specifically described on Exhibit A, the remaining parcels of land located within the Innovation Park and not owned by the Applicants shall remain subject to the Existing Proffers, which remain in full force and affect. Proffer 3: Further conditions may be required by the City during detailed Site Plan review and administration of applicable City codes by all City agencies and departments. Proffer 4: Fencing on the Property, other than for screening purposes and where it is necessary for the security of certain facilities or necessary to funnel visitors to designated entry points, is prohibited. The VBDA shall approve all proposed fences for material, color, location, coupled plantings and overall impact. Proffer 5: Temporary facilities, other than construction related facilities, shall not be permitted within the front yards and when located in the rear yards, shall be removed immediately upon completion of the permanent facility. Proffer 6: All loading/service, refuse, outdoor storage and staging areas must be concealed from public right-of-way view to the greatest extent possible and located at the rear of the building.

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. City of Virginia Beach Development Authority Agenda Item 2 Page 2 Zoning History i.

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. �!1 ` '1Princess Anne Commons now offers the prospect to + ,,_ : .- _' 4ripg ex and on the original goals established for it,providing `� entertainment, �t ^�� � -� ����,� fi unique education,medical, recreation, tip. .._: HospRAL . *t habitat preservation,and quality economic rptim Am . -M{ development opportunities.Additionally,the PA ATHLETIC CtMPlfX I. :: Comprehensive Plan designates this area as Special FIELD ' = Economic Growth Area 4-Princess Anne Commons, spoarzx ` `= recognizing the land development constraints and - economic development opportunities associated with Inet " 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. i „._ - -- - 4,...-,.. issioG Ai.

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. During the design process, - s. �,�� begin by identifying existing '= 1111 4.: natural characteristics of the site that should be conserved.

Natural site 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.

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). II Each designer is encouraged to express individuality and creativity while blending his or her design into the design context of the surrounding area. 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. i 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. II 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. — Y YY - R y st a r - - s .,e... 11 II 3- a! as aE - ii2 Ot. j jumaillikk4t ice. _ ,- �• + ; :1;egh. ir t :,,* tff,-.116 - - - Photograph O 2016 Sentara Healthcare • Sculpting a building's massing can also help avoid big bulky structures that result in visual monotony rather than visual interest. 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 II 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 IN 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 Y into the facade at - i what appears from ' outside the £,,, ;`,, t building to be I `‘ random locations. =- 1 ilk 1 4-1 I I r _ �. • 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 • 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. ill An identifiable break should be provided , ,,1 1 between a building's ground or second I 1 i floor and the upper floors.This break may : i ��' consist of a change in material, change in 1 : ; 's fenestration,or similar means.As shown `- . -' in the photograph to the right,the pre-cast '' block and cornice around the windows , provide such a break. , , . p � in Colors,materials,and finishes should be "T-` coordinated in a consistent manner on all elevations. of 4 i -- iliiilw 19 _ In order to maintain aesthetic continuity 111 ��.R - within Princess Anne Commons,bright '=" g 1 �, primary colors should not be used except i in limited use for building accents,such as i IT . entry doors or trim. ,� Al The bright blue band above the first floor arcade level of A this building shows an appropriate use of a bright primary color as an accent. Page 2-10/Site Planning Design and Development Guide/Biomedical Park November 2016 Exterior Building Lighting • Each project should develop a system or family of lighting with layers that contribute to the night-time experience, including facade uplighting,sign and display window illumination, .j landscape,and parking area lighting.

Access to these areas 1 Z should be minimized and arranged so that maneuvering is avoided on public streets. : �` -�' A vertical clearance of at least 14 feet is 1 f 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.

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 storm water 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 occur 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.

COUNCIL DISTRICT 8 MEETING DATE: June 20, 2023 (Deferred on May 16, 2023) ■ Background: The applicant is requesting to modify the conditions of a 1984 Conditional Use Permit for a Group Home on property zoned R-10 Residential District. The applicant seeks to extend the amount of time a resident can reside in the group home from 2 weeks to 90 days. The previous group home operated at this location from 1984 to 2021 and served runaway girls. The proposed group home will serve unaccompanied minors between the ages of 5 and 17, who crossed the southern border of the United States and are seeking to be reunited with their families living in the United States. The facility will operate 24 hours a day, 7 days a week with at least one staff member on-site at all times. All necessary services, including educational, nutritional, and mental health, will be provided on site for the residents. This group home will be run by Commonwealth Catholic Charities which will operate as a tenant to St. Nicholas Catholic Church. • Considerations: The previous group home, Seton House, operated successfully on the site for 37 years before relocating to another site in 2021. The request to resume the group home use is consistent with the Comprehensive Plan's policies and land use goals for the Suburban Area as the use will provide a needed service and a change in the length of stay allowed would not negatively impact the surrounding area. Minor cosmetic changes to the exterior of the building are proposed. The first floor will include office space, dining space, and recreation space while the second floor will be renovated to provide individual and shared bedrooms. Although the applicant initially requested to extend the maximum length of stay to 90 days, Staff decided not to condition the length of stay since such a limitation is not established in the Zoning Ordinance. Staff has received 14 letters of support, 2 letters of opposition, and 1 letter of concern regarding the application. There was 1 speaker in support and 4 speakers Commonwealth Catholic Charities Page 2 of 3 in opposition at the Planning Commission hearing. Those in opposition cited concerns over previous issues with residents of the group home, the demographic of children residing at the group home, and the removal of the 90-day limit initially requested. Based on the concerns of the those in opposition, the Planning Commission recommended a maximum of 10 children between the ages of 5 and 17 for a period not to exceed 90 days. At the May 16th City Council hearing, a 30-day deferral was requested by the applicant in order to conduct additional community outreach. There were 3 speakers in opposition and 1 speaker in support at the City Council hearing. Those in opposition citied concerns over potential illegitimate practices being conducted, a belief that veteran care should be prioritized within the city, and that personal taxes should not be allocated towards assisting organizations like Commonwealth Catholic Charities. The 1 speaker in support stated this was a vital resource to the community and is eager to volunteer and offer support to the organization and its residents. Further details pertaining to the application, as well as Staffs evaluation, are provided in the attached Staff Report. • Recommendation: On April 12, 2023, the Planning Commission passed a motion to recommend approval of this request by a vote of8to0. 1. All conditions attached to the previous Conditional Use Permit granted on February 6, 1984, are hereby deleted, and superseded by the following conditions. 2. The proposed building shall be improved in substantial conformance with the submitted architectural renderings entitled "ST NICHOLAS BUILDING PLANS", prepared by R.P. Morgan. Said elevations have been exhibited to the City of Virginia Beach City Council and are on file in the Department of Planning & Community Development. 3. All existing landscaping on the property shall be retained and maintained. 4. The number of children associated with this conditional use permit shall be limited to 20 10 children or as determined by the occupancy load set by the Building Official's Office for this Group Home, whichever count is lower 5. The applicant shall obtain all necessary permits and inspections from the Department of Planning & Community Development/Permits and Inspections Division. The applicant shall secure a Certificate of Occupancy from the Building Official prior to the occupancy of the Group Home. 6. All on-site signage must meet the requirements and regulations of the Zoning Ordinance, unless otherwise approved by the Board of Zoning Appeals. A Commonwealth Catholic Charities Page 3 of 3 separate permit from the Department of Planning & Community Development is required for any new signage installed on site. 7. All outdoor lights shall be shielded to direct light and glare onto the premises, said lighting and glare shall be deflected, shaded, and focused away from all adjoining property. Any outdoor lighting fixtures shall not be erected any higher than fourteen (14) feet. 8. Children residing in the Group Home shall be limited to the ages between 5 to 17 and shall not reside on the property for more than 90 days. • Attachments: Staff Report and Disclosure Statements Location Map Minutes of Planning Commission Hearing Letter(s) of Support (14) Letter(s) of Opposition (2) Letter of Concern (1) Recommended Action: Staff recommends Approval.

Specifically,the applicant is seeking a modification to Condition 2 to extend the amount of time residents can be housed on site from two weeks to 90 days. • A former group home operated in this space between 1984 to 2021 and was operated by Mother Seton, a different entity not owned by the church. This proposed group home use will be operated by the St. Nicholas Catholic Church, located on the property. The previous group home served runaway teen girls who were below the legal age to emancipate themselves. Each resident was allotted a stay of up to two weeks in the group home.The current building has been vacant for a total of two years and the applicant seeks to re-establish the group home to serve unaccompanied minors, ranging from 5 to 17 years old who have crossed the border and are seeking to be united with their families. The applicant seeks to increase the maximum amount of time each resident can stay on site to 90 days. During the residents stay, efforts will be made by the applicant and Customs and Border Patrol to reconnect each resident with their parents or family members. • This use will go into an existing 5,000 square foot building on-site. Originally, this building served as a group home for up to 20 children and will be modified to accommodate 10 to 15 residents on-site. The facility will include offices, classroom space, a dining area and recreation space on the first floor. The second floor will include a mix of individual and shared bedrooms to accommodate siblings. It is the applicant's intent that the facility will operate 24 hours a day, 7 days a week with 10 full-time staff and 4 part-time employees to ensure a staff member is on-site at all times • As depicted on the submitted building elevations on page 9, only minor cosmetic improvements are proposed to the structure. l /}1:o,.

During that time, staff has not Commonwealth Catholic Charities Agenda Item 10 Page 2 received any complaints related to the use. The Group Home will continue to provide a needed service that will support its community and residents. The existing building will undergo minor cosmetic changes to the exterior while interior renovations will be done to better accommodate residents. According to the 1984 Conditional Use Permit, Condition 2 required a sprinkler inspection that meets the approval of the Fire Inspection engineer. A sprinkler systems inspection was conducted on November 11, 2022,that found the current system satisfactory. Although the applicant was requesting to increase the maximum length of stay for residents of the facility to a finite amount of time (90-days), staff has decided not to condition the length of stay. Since the Zoning Ordinance does not restrict the amount of time an individual can reside within a group home, and since the use has been operating without issue for the last 37 years, Staff does not believe conditioning the length of stay is necessary for this application. Given that the use is not changing,staff does not anticipate a significant increase in traffic volume with this modification, given that the building is closed to the general public. Based on the considerations above, Staff recommends approval of this request subject to the conditions below. Recommended Conditions 1. All conditions attached to the previous Conditional Use Permit granted on February 6, 1984, are hereby deleted, and superseded by the following conditions. 2. The proposed building shall be improved in substantial conformance with the submitted architectural renderings entitled "ST NICHOLAS BUILDING PLANS", prepared by R.P. Morgan. Said elevations have been exhibited to the City of Virginia Beach City Council and are on file in the Department of Planning& Community Development. 3. All existing landscaping on the property shall be retained and maintained. 4. The number of children associated with this conditional use permit shall be limited to 2910 children or as determined by the occupancy load set by the Building Official's Office for this Group Home,whichever count is lower 5. The applicant shall obtain all necessary permits and inspections from the Department of Planning &Community Development/Permits and Inspections Division. The applicant shall secure a Certificate of Occupancy from the Building Official prior to the occupancy of the Group Home. 6. All on-site signage must meet the requirements and regulations of the Zoning Ordinance, unless otherwise approved by the Board of Zoning Appeals. A separate permit from the Department of Planning& Community Development is required for any new signage installed on site. 7. All outdoor lights shall be shielded to direct light and glare onto the premises, said lighting and glare shall be deflected, shaded, and focused away from all adjoining property. Any outdoor lighting fixtures shall not be erected any higher than fourteen (14)feet. 8. Children residing in the Group Home shall be limited to the ages between 5 to 17 and shall not reside on the property for more than 90 days. 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 Commonwealth Catholic Charities Agenda Item 10 Page 3 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. Conditions of 1984 CUP Approval 1. Installation of automatic sprinkler and fire alarm systems meeting the approval of the Fire Protection Engineer. 2. Limitation of twenty children, each to be housed for a maximum of two weeks. Comprehensive Plan Recommendations This property is located within the Suburban Area of the city, as designated by the Comprehensive Plan. Guiding principles have been established in the Comprehensive Plan to protect the stability of the Suburban Area and to provide a framework for neighborhoods and places that are visually interesting and that provide memorable character. The Plan's primary guiding principle is to create "Great Neighborhoods," and to support those neighborhoods with complementary non-residential uses in such a way that the stability of the Suburban Area is maintained in a sustainable way. A change in the length of time a resident can be housed would not negatively impact the surrounding area and would be supported by the Comprehensive Plan.

Commonwealth Catholic Charities Agenda Item 10 Page 19 Virginia Beach Planning Commission April 12, 2023, Public Meeting Agenda Item # 10 Commonwealth Catholic Charities (Applicant) Catholic Diocese of Richmond (Property Owner) Modification of Conditions Address: 642 North Lynnhaven Road RECOMMENDED FOR APPROVAL — HEARD Madam Clerk: Our final agenda item for the day is agenda item number 10, Commonwealth Catholic Charities. It's an application for a Modification of Conditions, a Group Home at 642 North Lynnhaven Road in Council District eight. Would the applicant or the applicant's representative please step to the podium. Mr. Alcaraz: Sir if you could just state your name for the record. Mr. Brown: I'm Jay Brown from Commonwealth Catholic Charities. Mr. Alcaraz: How are you today? Mr. Brown: I'm doing well, Mr. Chairman. How are you? Mr. Alcaraz: Yeah, fine. Good. Just go ahead and speak your case. Mr. Brown: Sure. I'd like to take this opportunity to say thank you, Mr. Chairman, Mr. Vice Chairman, members of Commission, I'd also like to introduce Ms. Loretta Jackson, who's here with me. She serves as the local program manager of our ministry serving vulnerable children. We at Commonwealth Catholic Charities have partnered with the Commonwealth of Virginia's Department of Social Services and the Federal Department of Health and Human Services to provide quality care for unaccompanied children and refugee minors for well over 40 years. We're seeking a Modification of Conditions under an existing Conditional Use Permit that allows the operation of a group home for children, as staff has pointed out in their report. The existing limitation on the length of stay for children in our care is in conflict with the City's Zoning Ordinance and while we originally sought to extend the length of stay, we are satisfied with the staff recommendation to the length of stay condition be eliminated. I'd like to take the opportunity to thank Ms. McKinney and city staff for their professionalism and their assistance in this matter. We accept the conditions listed in the staff report and we appreciate your consideration of our application. I'm happy to answer any questions. Mr. Alcaraz: Sure. Are there any questions at this time? So, I'm going to ask the other speakers to come up and then I'll give you a chance to rebut. Madam Clerk: Mr. Chairman, we have five speakers signed up today. The first speaker, I'm calling Chris Carrasco to be followed by Don Landeskey. Mr. Alcaraz: Hi if you can just state your name. Ms. Carrasco: Good afternoon. I'm Reverend Dr. Chris Carrasco. I'm the pastor of King's Grant Presbyterian Church. We're located on 745 Little Neck Road right across the street from St. Nick's Catholic Church. And I would like to speak in favor of this application. I think CCC has a long track record of serving the most vulnerable in our nation. And I look forward to partnering with them in helping to provide meals or donations or any way that we can assist in this wonderful mission outreach service project that they have serving unaccompanied minors. So, we have, we are actually very excited about this opportunity and look forward to partnering with St. Nick's in the future for this ministry that we can provide with them. Thank you. Mr. Alcaraz: All right. Thank you for coming up. Madam Clerk: Next speaker Don Landeskey to be followed by Jim Zucchini. Mr. Alcaraz: How are you sir? If you could just state your name. Mr. Landeskey: I hope everybody can hear me. My name is Don Landeskey. I've been a resident of Virginia Beach Little Neck for over 50 years in the same house, a resident and a member of St. Nicholas Church for over 50 years and almost drive the same vehicle for 50 years, a little consistency. I'm opposed to this as a church member and what this is bringing to our community. The business, Commonwealth Catholic Charities will be bringing 80 illegal un-vetted refugees to Little Neck over a year's time. They will have an age of children that formally was up to 21. I don't see any children as 21, but now it's been 19. The business is also secular, so I'm not anticipating seeing any of these residents coming to our church. They're coming from a broken system that the government has set up for refugees at the border. Health and Human Services has lost control of monitoring these individuals that is in excess of over 150,000 per year. It's boiler plate with the federal government where they want to get these refugees out of their camp, which is gated. These people are sleeping on floors in plastic bags. There's a lot of pressure in the agency that mandates 20% of these occupants be sent to shelters like Seton House, 20% per week, if that is not done, then staff is reprimanded for that. These juveniles are in debt to the smugglers and/or cartel that have bought them across the border. Mr. Alcaraz: Sir, I'll have to end your comments, you get three minutes and you've exceeded that. Mr. Landeskey: Am I already over three minutes? Mr. Alcaraz: Yes sir. Mr. Landeskey: Okay. Mr. Alcaraz: Are there any questions? None. Thank you, sir. Mr. Landeskey: My pleasure. Thank you. Madam Clerk: Our next speaker is Jim Zecchini, followed by Eloise Zecchini. Mr. Landeskey:l have some handouts regarding this. If the council or the group would be interested in this? Mr. Alcaraz: You have to give them to the clerk over there at the corner. Thank you. Sorry, we have to give respect to everybody that's speaking today. You can come forward, sir. Just state your name. Mr. Zecchini: Thank you. Good afternoon. I'm Jim Zecchini and I'm a neighbor of St. Nick's. I've lived right across the street from the church and a group home since 1994, so I've been there a while and I've seen the operations and how changes have impacted the community. The staff report says that no complaints have been received about the group home formally, but there have been issues there over the years, not so much when the girls were there, but when the boys were there, there were issues, lots of issues with noise. On a few occasions, some visitors arrived with massive car stereos that were so loud that literally rattled the windows in our houses, which had to be solved by the police. The bus stop for the young men was directly in front of our house, which also brought a number of issues as you know, high schoolers get on the bus fairly early. So we had a lot of noise early in the morning, we had young men running through the yard, young men on our porch, damage to our mailbox. This was finally solved, talking to the school long enough that they moved the bus stop. In the evaluation recommendation section of the report, it says given that the use is not changing, if this proposed length of stay change is approved and the other recommended changes are implemented, this will be a very different situation than we've ever seen with this group home in our neighborhood. Previously residents were only there for a couple of weeks and they went to school all day, so they really weren't on site for a very long period of time. In this proposal, they will be onsite all the time. And if there are 15 or 20 residents in this small building, and it is a small building and I urge you to walk through it, it's not a big space. And they're there for weeks and months on end, especially the older ones, and they can be up to 17 or 18, they're gonna get bored and they're gonna get restless. That's gonna be a challenge for whoever is running the operation. It is small. I think in the time I've only about eight boys there and that's probably about the right number. There have only ever been girls there or boys separately. This proposal has both sexes, again in a small space; I'm concerned with what that might look like and how safe that might be. In a staff recommendation, it notes that this use is compatible with the surrounding area. The biggest thing in this surrounding area is the elementary school adjacent to this facility just a short distance over a small parking lot. The school's recess area is right next to this home where there could be, you know, up to 20 people in their late teens leaving there for long periods of times. Children also use the school's recess area for afterschool activities and play there. So this proposal could have 15 to 20 kids, some number of them be 16, 17 years old for weeks or months or unlimited amount of time in the small place. I am concerned with the interaction with five to basically 11 years old at this elementary school, day in and day out. The surrounding community, the area right next to this church and this facility is all about the elementary school and those kids, so my concerns with the allowed number of residents, the length of stay, which facilitates the number of residents and the age of the residents. Thank you all very much. Mr. Alcaraz: Thank you. Are there any questions? Yes, Mr. Plumlee. Mr. Plumlee: Mr. Zecchini, so you described the actions prior to, and you said that there were issues with regards to people coming into your yard, but the bus stop was moved in response to your complaints, is that fair? Mr. Alcaraz: Yes sir. Mr. Plumlee: And typically has the church been responsive to the issues that have been brought up by the neighborhood over the years when those issues arose? Mr. Zucchini: Well, sometimes the church has, sometimes the church hasn't. I said with the car issue, it was amazing the volume that these car stereos could put out. mean, I know one of the other neighbors ended up calling the police, I don't know who ended up resolving it, whether it was the police or the church, but you know, that happened a few times and it was amazingly loud. It's just a shame that you really have to call anybody, and these kids were there for a short amount of time. I'm really concerned if you have teens or you've raised teens or you've done things with groups of teens, they're gonna be in the space potentially that's small for a long amount of time. And if you don't keep them very engaged, things can happen and that's a real concern. Mr. Plumlee: Have you had a chance to express all of your concerns with the time that you're given? Mr. Zecchini: Yes sir. I have. It's tough to pack it all in, but it. I would like to say, I guess one final thing, I appreciate Michaela McKinney answering all my questions, I called and had a large number of questions and I appreciate Jay Brown. We had a very good lengthy phone call, and I appreciate your time sir, and answering my questions as well. Mr. Plumlee: All right, thank you. Appreciate it. Madam Clerk: Eloise Zecchini, followed by Steve Nimitz. Ms. Zecchini: Good afternoon. Thank you for letting us speak and get our concerns out. understand that most of the questions. Mr. Alcaraz: Can you just say your name for the recording? Ms. Zecchini: Oh, sorry about that. I am Eloise Zecchini. Mr. Alcaraz: Thank you. Ms. Zecchini: I live across the street from the Catholic Church, most of the questions you're hearing today are about things that are not under your cognizant, you know, we're here to decide whether we're going from two weeks to 90 days or to an unlimited amount of stay here. And I understand that but understand that this is the only forum we've been given, you know, it's already in a conditional use for a group home. As I understand it, there are really no limitations on what can go over there. So, we're very thankful that, you know, a reputable corporation or a company, a group of people are putting this on, but, you know, this is our only chance to get our concerns out, so thank you. Again, the highest concern is the location adjacent to the elementary school. I'd like to respectfully request deferral of item 10 based on the fact that the written and posted notifications stated an increase from two weeks to 90 days, and staff has recommended an unlimited stay based on the Zoning Ordinance, and I understand all that. It's just that is a big change in what we were, you know, seeing, what we've seen on the sign and what we've gotten at our homes as the notification. So, I believe there would be a more interest that just kind of change things. So, I believe there would be more interest in this agenda item, if it were deferred to another date and that's all I have. Thank you. Mr. Alcaraz: All right. Thank you. Any questions? All right, thank you. Madam Clerk: Our final speaker is Steve Nimitz. Mr. Nimitz: My name is Steve Nimitz. I'm the President of the King's Grant Community League. So, I guess that means I get a little extra time if I do run long. Mr. Alcaraz: You do get 10 minutes. Mr. Nimitz: So good afternoon, ladies and gentlemen, I've been the president of the King's Grant Community League for about eight years. During that time, we have successfully navigated any issues that arise with the two group homes that exist in our neighborhood, both were operated by the Seton organization. The Community League has approximately 1600 homes within our purview. About 350 of those are current dues paying members that receive our notifications. I'm here to provide comments on not just the application, but the process. And think some of my comments will echo what you heard from two others that spoke ahead of me. The building at the Catholic Church that has proposed to house this group home served as such for many years. In fact, the Seton operates two shelters within my community and operated them until the church unilaterally canceled or terminated the lease of the boys' shelter on this property back in 2021. The second shelter was opened after lengthy dialogue between its host church, the Seton House, and the King's Grant Community League. Today, the Community League continues to have representation on our board by Seton, which was a condition that this commission placed when that second shelter was proposed. No such dialogue has occurred for this application. I wrote to the city planner on March 31st citing a lack of understanding, meaning no details about this application, and suggested this item be deferred for a month or until after the staff reports were available and we had an opportunity to engage our community. To date, I've not gotten any reply. Unlike the earlier Conditional Use Permit for the Seton shelter, no one in the King's Grant Community League has been contacted by either the church or by anybody in the Planning department. The staff reports were posted on the 6th of April. They do not represent a clear picture of what this change is about. Of most concern is the staff proposal to change the duration of occupancy from its current and beyond the church's proposal for 90-day limit to an unlimited stay, which would in effect make this an apartment house within King's Grant. The education impact is another concern raised by members of my community. The church's application states that there would be no public schooling of the residents of this home. There is a school next door, as you heard earlier, which is a concern, but we do not as a community understand how 5 to 17 year olds can exist in this building for months on end without some type of schooling and where would that occur? So, the conditions well, I think the conditions that were within the church's application and cite some of my concerns here, ought to be part of the conditions for approval and be adequately documented the age of the students or the age of the residents there. And I've heard things from an upper limit of 17 to an upper limit of 21. So, I'm not sure what the actual age is for the person staying there and how that will be managed. The duration of stay I think we could accept 90 days. The community does not accept an unlimited duration of stay, and there should be some mention, at least as a condition of what the education plan is if none, for the residents of that home. For instance, no use of the public school, no use of school transportation, those type things, which was those types of considerations were in the last conditional use permit that was provided in 2005 for the second Seton shelter, which is currently occupied by girls at the intersection of Edinburgh and Kings Grant Road. So, this community that represent is residential. It's almost entirely single family homes. There are a few non-single families near this property that are duplexes, but a group home without conditions is not compatible with the residential nature of this neighborhood. Thank you. Mr. Alcaraz: Are there any questions? None. Okay. Thank you, sir. Come back, Mr. Plumlee. Mr. Plumlee: I was deep in thought. Sorry. Tell me your name again, I'm sorry. Mr. Nimitz: Steve Nimitz. Mr. Plumlee: So, you mentioned that a 90-day limitation would be agreeable to the community is your understanding. Mr. Nimitz: And we have not had the opportunity to fully canvas our community because the staff reports were not posted until the fifth, I think it was the fifth of this month and the application, excuse me, the application that was available online with the agenda that was posted merely cited the 90-day limit. It didn't really go into any of the other details that involving education and those types of things. Mr. Plumlee: Okay. And the other issues you brought out were education and the age of the resident. And you've not received information regarding that or were told there would not be any educational requirements or understanding? Mr. Nimitz: That's correct. So, my concern is that if we approve a group home without conditions of duration and such, that this group home could then change purposes several years from now and become something else with no further action required here by this body. Mr. Alcaraz: When you say without conditions, what? Mr. Nimitz: Well, I don't know what the conditions that were imposed when this home was originally created in 1984. Mr. Alcaraz: Okay. Mr. Nimitz: I have no record of that. I do have records of all the proffers that were in place when the second group home was established in 2005. Mr. Alcaraz: And have you had any concerns with the community that you're with for the past 40 years over that? Mr. Nimitz: The good news is that we have a representative on our board from Seton and has been the same person for the last 18 years. And that person is the person we go to when we have issues with parking, kids wandering the street, those types of things. And so we don't engage the churches that host these properties, we engage the organization that operates those homes, which was Seton. Mr. Alcaraz: I'm gonna go back to, so you said parking. So there's a problem with parking when... Mr. Nimitz: At the girl shelter, which is at the intersection of King's Grant Edinburg. Mr. Alcaraz: Okay, but on this side, there is no parking. Mr. Nimitz: Not on this side, there's a huge parking lot on this side. But any issues in general with the group homes were dealt with by our representative on the board who also is on the Seton Board, so that's kind of how that process worked. Mr. Alcaraz: Thank you. Mr. Nimitz: Thank you. Mr. Alcaraz: All right, Mr. Brown, you can come forward and rebut. Mr. Brown: If it's okay, I'd like to introduce Ms. Jackson to talk about the specific operation that we have. Mr. Alcaraz: Please step forward and state your name. Ms. Jackson: Hi, my name is Lolita Jackson and I'm the program manager of the Virginia Beach Shelter. Mr. Alcaraz: Okay. What I'd like you to do is just rebut on what was said. So we don't have to go through the whole thing. Ms. Jackson: Our age group is from 5 to 17. We will not have any... Mr. Alcaraz: Just come closer to the mic. Ms. Jackson: Our age group that we serve is from ages 5 to 17. We will not serve anyone over the age of 17. As far as we have a safety plan in place where the children will never be unsupervised outside of the building, whenever they leave the building, they will be accompanied by a staff member. They will not venture over until we will not use the school area. We will not be affiliated with that area at all. As far as the educational plan, we have a certified ESL teacher on staff and an education assistant as well. Mr. Alcaraz: Okay. Thank you. Let them finish. Then we'll go to questions. Go ahead Mr. Brown. You wanna rebuttal anything? Mr. Brown: Just simply say that, that all education services are operated on site. That's built into the operation. But we're happy to answer any additional questions if there are any. Mr. Alcaraz: I'm gonna turn it over to the Commissioners. Mr. Coston, go ahead. Mr. Coston: How many residents at a time? Mr. Brown: Up to 10. We will not have more than 10 at a time. Mr. Coston: Okay. Please come forward so we can get on the record when, whatever your answer is. We have it recorded. Mr. Brown: I'm sorry, up to 10. We will not have more than 10 residents at a time. Mr. Alcaraz: Anything else, Mr. Coston? Ms. Cuellar? Ms. Cuellar: Yes. My question is when you first submitted your application, could you help us better understand why you selected 90 days? Mr. Jackson: Well, the 90 days is our process where we are clearing a sponsor. We very rarely go up to 90 days. We actually go between two weeks and 30 days. We need the 90 days just in case it takes us longer to clear a certain sponsor. Ms. Cuellar: Okay. And then my question is for our City Attorney in regard to our Zoning Ordinance, in the course of the research for this application, Ms. McKinney shared with us that there is no restriction as to how long a resident can stay in a group home. Could you just clarify that point of law for us? Ms. Wilson: Thank you. In the group home definition, there is no limitation as to time limits. However, if everyone agrees to the time limits, then it would be fine to put it in there, but we cannot impose a time limit. We, being the Planning Commission. Mr. Alcaraz: Thank you. Any other questions, Mr. Plumlee? Mr. Plumlee: I have a question. Okay, so 90 days is agreeable as a condition, ages 5 to 17 is agreeable as the condition and a limitation of residents up to 10 is an agreeable condition? Is that fair because this is like forming a contract? Mr. Brown: Yes. Mr. Plumlee: You know, a Conditional Use Permit, we set the conditions, you know, the city does and you can agree to it or reject it, but I just wanted to make clear that those were all agreeable conditions. Mr. Brown: Our preference is to operate a group home in conformance with the Zoning Ordinance. But if those conditions are necessary to get it through, we're happy to accept them. Mr. Plumlee: Thank you. Mr. Brown: All right. Thank you. Mr. Alcaraz: Mr. Clemons? Mr. Clemons: Yes. Thank you. I'm wondering, is there an admissions process or how are residents selected for the program? Ms. Jackson: We receive a referral from an intake facility down in Texas. And they're not local, they don't come from local organizations. We receive a referral, yes. Mr. Clemons: Is there any other screening that might take place beyond that? Ms. Jackson: Oh yes, we go through an extensive background process, a background check process yes sir. Mr. Clemons: Okay. Mr. Alcaraz: Good. Thank you. All right, Mr. Coston? Mr. Coston: Is there any anticipation of visitors? Ms. Jackson: No, the shelter is self-sufficient. The residents are not allowed to tell their families where we are, so there will be no visitation at the shelter. Mr. Alcaraz: Ms. Cuellar. Ms. Cuellar: My question, given the interest in our community with the change in the program at the Cabrini Center. Have you thought about a communication plan with your landlord St. Nicholas to inform not only the parishioners, but the greater community such as the King's Grant Civic League in regard to the operation or just, you know, some type of communication plan for an update as to how things are going? Mr. Brown: We certainly, you know, apologized to the King's Grant Civic Association, we didn't intend to leave them out. Our team had been in the neighborhoods knocking doors to try to communicate what was happening prior to posting our signs. We've met extensively with the parishioners of St. Nicholas and have largely allowed the parish to kind of drive communication regarding the proposed use given that it's their facility. We're certainly happy to attend any civic association, any community meeting to discuss our use, to discuss our program, to discuss our work and we'd certainly be happy for a seat on the board of the Kings Grant Civic Association as well. Ms. Cuellar: Thank you very much. Mr. Alcaraz: Is there any other. None, all right. Mr. Horsley: Yeah. I have a question. You said that these youngsters come to you by referral from Texas. Is that correct? Ms. Jackson: Yes. Mr. Horsley: So, is the gentleman right about it being illegal immigrants? Is that what they are and how can you do an extensive background check on those if they are illegal people? That's what I want to know. Ms. Jackson: We are doing the background check on the sponsors. The people that they're going to, the youth that come to us are children. They are between the ages of 5 and 17, and so there's no way to do an extensive background check on the child, and our background checks are geared toward the people that are receiving them. Mr. Horsley: So, what is your goal in 30 days say, what is your goal? What do you plan for those youngsters to go after that? Mr. Brown: Thank you for the question, Mr. Vice Chairman. So the ministry that we are conducting here, right is these children have come across the border. They've been apprehended by typically Customs and Border Patrol, and the Department of Homeland Security due to a number of federal policies and judicial settlements are not allowed to house these children. They need to be placed in the least restrictive setting possible for them, and so they are transferred to the Department of Health and Human Services under the custody of the Office of Refugee Resettlement. The Office of Refugee Resettlement then contracts with local state licensed facilities like Commonwealth Catholic Charities to care for these children and reunite them with their sponsors, with their family members who reside here in the United States. Processing, background checks, the determination of whether or not there's a reasonable case for that child to gain status in the United States. All of that happens prior to their arrival with us. Our job is to care for them, to educate them, to provide them with social assistance, with mental health assistance, with nutritional services, and to reunite them with their family. Mr. Horsley: So you plan to reunite them with their family that reside in the United States. Okay, so you have to go through the process of locating them and all that? Mr. Brown: Yes sir. We locate them. We conduct a background screenings and background checks to ensure that this is a safe place. We verify employment; we verify that these children can be supported, that they'll attend school. All of those things will take place while they're in our care. Our work will be certified by the Office of Refugee Resettlement of the Department of Health and Human Services and then we facilitate the connection of the child with their sponsor. Mr. Horsley: And they go back to their families, and you don't look, you don't try to find families locally to take them or whatever? Mr. Brown: Typically, there are not local families. We move these kids to wherever their family members are. Mr. Horsley: Okay, thank you. Mr. Brown: Yes sir. Mr. Alcaraz: Mr. Plumlee has another question. Mr. Plumlee: So there is a sponsor that's been identified prior to them being placed in this home. Is that fair? Mr. Brown: Yes. Mr. Plumlee: Okay. Thank you just wonderful. Mr. Alcaraz: All right, my turn. What I'm hearing this is, and correct me if I'm wrong, so this has been going on for 40 years and you've had a two week period to do all that you just said. So now you're asking for 90 days. Mr. Brown: Our partnership serving this population has extended back 40 years in a multiple different avenues and programs. We operate a very, very similar ministry to this one in the city of Richmond and that's where our experience is, that on average these children are with us for 27 days. We do allow for 90 based on the program rules because occasionally it takes us a little bit longer to ascertain who the sponsor is, how do we verify, where they are and the rest. But we've not yet had an experience where a child would be with us for longer than 90 days. The work of the staff upon arrival is to take care of these children, to verify who the sponsor is and to do the work necessary to reunite these children with that sponsor. So yes, it is rapid, it is very quick, and the team is extremely good at it. Mr. Alcaraz: So 90 days will actually help you do better at that. Mr. Brown: We don't have an issue with the 90-day restriction. The 90-day restriction does not... Mr. Alcaraz: Versus two weeks is a big difference. Mr. Brown: Oh certainly, yes, absolutely. I mean, we are asking for the extension to 90 days because it is essential for us to make sure that we can fully process the sponsors and make sure these kids will be safe on the other end. Mr. Alcaraz: All right. Any other questions? All right. You may be seated right now. We're gonna close it to public comment and I'm gonna open for discussion with the Commissioners. Once we have that discussion and anyone wants to speak, we can go ahead and have somebody make a motion. Mr. Plumlee. Mr. Plumlee: I would just like to say, I know there was some surprise to this item for the community, and they thought that they didn't have sufficient time to delve into this issue; however, I would be supportive of a recommendation for approval to City Council with the conditions that we've talked about 10 residents, 5 to 17 years of age that they have a sponsor before they're coming and that it's for this 90-day period of time, I would be in favor if we can condition it that way the recommendation, and since we're simply making a recommendation, you all have another chance, another body to go before and express any continuing, you know, objection that you have. So I'm not sure you're missing any opportunity to be heard with this recommendation. So I just wanted to make that point. Mr. Alcaraz: All right, Mr. Plumlee. Ms. Cuellar, go ahead. Ms. Cuellar: So first and foremost, I recognize that this is a very complex issue that Commonwealth Catholic Charities is stepping up to address and to support in our community. Having that said, I do would feel more comfortable based on the concerns of not only the letters and the calls that I've received is to moving forward with the condition of 90 days. I think too, what we're also reading here, it said up to 20 children but if it's truly gonna be more than 10, I think if we become a little more restrictive in our conditions, then it would be a compromise at this point before we move to City Council, if more citizens would like to come out and speak on this from Kings Grant. Mr. Alcaraz: All right, is anybody else like to, Mr. Horsley? Mr. Horsley: I'd just like to ask Kay, if you would, is it legal? What I mean, we're land use, mean we determine what the property is used for and can we put these conditions on a land use property? I mean, I don't think anybody's having a problem with it being a group home, but I think it's and that's really what our job is to say, if it's a group, we can have a group home here or not, but can we put these conditions on it legally? Ms. Wilson: Yes, as long as everyone agrees to these conditions, what my suggestion is that we, the last section we make these conditions part of a section that says in compromise with the community, everyone agrees that these conditions shall apply. That way, if anybody looks at it in 20 years, they know that we all agree to these conditions and that's why they're on. It's not that we impose them because we wouldn't have a right to impose them on them, particularly in the 90 days, but the other is we probably could, a Conditional Use Permit, you put conditions on so that it fits better in the neighborhood. So that's exactly what these conditions are doing. Mr. Horsley: Okay. So they've agreed. They have agreed. So we are good to go. Ms. Wilson: So we're good. Mr. Alcaraz: Okay. So let me make sure because one thing that I didn't know in agreement with the applicant was the 10 was that, I hate to ask you, Mr. Brown, even though we're closed, may I ask him to come up? Mr. Brown, may you come up please. A statement was just made from 20 to 10, does that sound right? Ms. Wilson: Yeah, that's what I heard from your program director, you wouldn't have any more than 10 at one time? Mr. Brown: Yes ma'am. Ms. Wilson: So I wanna be sensitive to that, this current recommendation is that? Mr. Brown: Yes, the maximum occupancy that we would anticipate is 10. We're happy to accept that as a compromise. Mr. Alcaraz: Did you have anything else to say before? Mr. Brown: I mean, I think the conditions that we are glad to accept is the 90-day limit, there said the 10 children and the age range from 5 to 17. Mr. Alcaraz: Thank you sir. Mr. Brown: Yes sir. Thank you. Mr. Alcaraz: Is there any other, anybody else? I'm sorry sir, we're closed. Yes, Miss. Ms. Cuellar: So Kay help us also with, did you have something? Mr. Alcaraz: Yes, go ahead. Ms. Estaris: What would happen if a child was to stay more than 90 days? What would be the situation? Ms. Wilson: They would be in violation of their Conditional Use Permit. But I get the feeling that, you know, there may be a child and he's there 92 days because somebody's car got broken down on the way from Pennsylvania. Then I think that's not something that we would bring in them in and ask to have their Conditional Use Permit vacated or gotten rid of, if you end up with, you know, the next 20 children are all there six months, then yeah, then we would have to bring them back in. Mr. Alcaraz: Mr. Plumlee. Mr. Plumlee: Yeah, they would just be subject to revocation at that point. They could have it revoked if they were to, as she said consistently exceed the time that would be the subject. Mr. Alcaraz: All right, Ms. Cuellar. Ms. Cuellar: One thing I was hoping to get a clarification on is that Mr. Nimitz mentioned that for Seton House, for the girls' property at the front of Edinburgh and King's Grant Road, that there's a representative on that board. Was there anything, Ms. McKinney? I'm not seeing Michaela here in regard to Seton House having a position, excuse me, the Civic League having a position on Seton House, the boys home. Ms. Alcock: We did not have a condition to that effect. Ms. Cuellar: No condition. Ms. Alcock: No ma'am. Mr. Alcaraz: All right. Thank you. It looks like we've had our discussion. Everyone's expressed their concerns and asked their questions, and is there anyone like to entertain a motion? Ms. Cuellar? Ms. Cuellar: I move that we approve the Modifications of Conditions with the compromise that we discussed here today. Mr. Alcaraz: Can you please state that? Ms. Cuellar: Okay. Mr. Alcaraz: Just the three... Ms. Cuellar: Oh pardon me, I'm sorry, yes. The three conditions would be that no more than 10 children between the ages of 5 and 17 will be in attendance, excuse me, in residence at the Cabrini Center and for no more than 90 days. Mr. Alcaraz: Thank you. Mr. Plumlee: Second. Mr. Alcaraz: Second by Mr. Plumlee. Madam Clerk: Vote is open. By a vote of seven in favor, zero against with an abstention noted by Commissioner Horsley, is your vote an aye? Mr. Horsley: Yes. Madam Clerk: Okay. Corrected, by vote of eight in favor, zero against agenda item number 10 has been recommended for approval with conditions as amended. Mr. Alcaraz: All right. Thank you. Thank you for attending, and that concludes our formal meeting.

Lynnhaven Road, allowing for persons to occupy facilities for up to 90 days to facilitate their proposal to run an emergency shelter for 10-15 unaccompanied children. I believe it would be a wonderful way to care for"the least of these" and fully in line with not only Christian beliefs,but also our responsibility as members of the human race. These children are the most vulnerable in our society and what an opportunity to care for them. Some members at King's Grant are already brainstorming ways we can help, such as providing clothing or meals. I do hope you will support and approve this request so the CCC, a leading provider of human services for children in Virginia, can further protect the most vulnerable people in our society, children.

Michaela, Thank you for your help yesterday. As a family who lives across the street from St.Nicholas Catholic Church, we see reasons why the proposed modification of conditions, and future use will not be complementary for our community,especially for Kings Grant Elementary which is directly adjacent to the proposed property. Previously, displaced children were there for a couple of weeks and went to school during the day. This short time spent at the group home had little impact on the community. If this proposal is approved,the residents will be on site 24/7 for 90 days. Even if there is supervision,how will residents who are older, 16 or 17, be monitored around the clock for 90 days?This is especially a concern with the adjacent elementary school and its recess area being about 50 yards from the group home. That recess area is also used by a number of children's activities after school. Almost nothing will be known about the young adults who will be there for 90 days. The parish staff told me the residents will be people who came across the border unaccompanied by a relative.Nothing will be known about their background, history or ability to stay for 90 days successfully and safely. If approved and the flow of immigrants begins, how will the city control this situation? If the facility is full and new people are scheduled to arrive will the population grow if no place is available to send people? How will the city ensure that residents are under 18? On the chance they have a birth certificate how will its validity be verified?How will the city ensure older residents do not have a violent past? Finally,to date the facility has only had females or in later years, males only. Is the facility being properly modified to safely house females with males? Thank you for your consideration. Please call if you have any questions. Sincerely, Jim & Ellie Zecchini 757-373-1360 From: Steve Nimitz To: Michaela D.Mckinney Cc: board of Directors Subject: Modification of Conditions Application for Commonwealth Catholic Charities Date: Friday,March 31,2023 2:02:41 PM LCAUTION:This email originated from outside of the City of Virginia Beach. Do not click links or open attachments unless you recognize the sender and know the content is safe. Dear Ms. McKinney, The application for Modification of Conditions for Commonwealth Catholic Charities is on the Planning Commission agenda for April 12th. The location of the group home at St Nicholas Catholic Church that is the subject of this application is within the King's Grant community. To date, no one representing the applicant has contacted the officers or directors of the King's Grant Community League (KGCL)to provide information about the requested changes to Conditional Use and to address concerns that members of our community are beginning to voice. I expected that there would be outreach from the church as it pertains to the non-conforming use of the church's property. There has been none. Lack of information, including a completed staff brief for the Planning Commission,f prevents the KGCL from having a meaningful dialogue with neighborhood homeowners. In view of the short remaining time before the Planning Commission's scheduled vote on this application, I believe the item should be deferred from the April agenda to fully understand the applicant's proposal, give the King's Grant Community League time to consult with its members, hear their concerns, and provide the Planning Commission with our approval / disapproval. Sincerely, Steve Nlmitz President, King's Grant Community League 757-348-7920 February 20, 2023 Virginia Beach City Council 2401 Courthouse Drive Virginia Beach,VA 23456 City Council and Citizens of Virginia Beach : My name is Donald M Leneski and I am an active parishioner of St Nicholas for over 50 years. I am a business owner and have been a resident of Virginia Beach for over 50 years I am opposed to the CCC Cabrini Shelter at St Nicholas by Commonwealth Catholic Charities(CCC) as proposed before the City Council today. I was on the St Nicholas Parish Council when the Chair of the CCC presented their original proposal. I had questions then and to date have not received any satisfactory explanation including what is before the City Council today. Please discover: Who is personally responsible and in charge of this program? Who's name is on the real estate lease for Cabrini Shelter with St Nicholas? Cabrini Shelter is secular.This is a business venture.The Federal government will pay$15000/mo for each Refugee Unaccompanied Minor(RUM).As proposed,this would income of$675000 for ninety days. Please confirm. The declaration by the proponents of this proposal that the RUM are vetted, have birth certificates and have family waiting for their release is extremely questionable and problematic. Bringing these Refugee Unaccompanied Minors to the Little Neck community or anywhere else, as proposed, is not in the best interests of the City and the Little Neck area. Therefore, I pray the City Council do their diligence and investigate and answer all questions before this program, as proposed,goes forward. Personally I believe the welfare of all concerned is at peril should this matter be advanced.

BROWN [Applicant & Property Owner] Subdivision Variance (Section 4.4(b) & (d) of the Subdivision Regulations)for the property located at and adjacent to 2888 Indian River Road (GPINs 14933480820000, 14934402160000, 14933398000000, 14934400020000). COUNCIL DISTRICT 2 MEETING DATE: June 20, 2023 • Background: The applicant is proposing to reconfigure the boundaries of four existing parcels along a private lane. Since these lots will not have direct access to a public street, as required by Section 4.4(d) of the Subdivision Regulations, a variance is required. As each lot has a street-line frontage of zero feet along a public right-of- way, and the AG-1 Zoning District requires a minimum frontage of 120 feet, a variance to Section 4.4(b) is also required. • Considerations: The parcels are zoned AG-1 Agriculture and are within the Interfacility Traffic Area (ITA), which limits density to one dwelling unit per 15 acres. While the subject parcels only contain a total of 7.48 acres, the proposal would not increase density beyond what is presently available. The proposed reconfiguration would result in more uniform parcels that meet the 1 acre minimum lot area requirement and the minimum 150-feet lot width requirement for properties zoned AG-1. Additionally, the applicant intends to pave and widen the existing private lane to accommodate emergency vehicles and extend City sanitary sewer to the site. No city defined wetlands or floodplains are present on site. The applicant will work with DEQ and/or Army Corp of Engineers regarding potential presence of jurisdictional wetlands. Staff received 6 letters of opposition to the application, 5 of which were from residences immediately adjacent to the subject property. Three of those residents also spoke in opposition at the Planning Commission hearing. In response to concerns expressed by neighbors regarding potential impacts to drainage due to the removal of trees, the applicant has conditioned to include a 20-foot wide Tree Preservation Easement and a 35,732 square foot Natural Area Preservation Easement. Another condition recommended by staff would require the four lots to be submitted as a comprehensive (multi-lot) site plan to address stormwater management and public utilities. Further details pertaining to the application, as well as Staffs evaluation, are provided in the attached Staff Report. . Thomas A. Brown Page 2 of 3 • Recommendation: On May 10, 2023, the Planning Commission passed a motion to recommend approval of this request by a vote of 8 to 0. 1. The applicant/owner shall submit a resubdivision plat to the City of Virginia Beach, subject to the review and approval of the Department of Planning & Community Development prior to recordation, which shall be in substantial conformance to the submitted plat exhibit entitled "Exhibit Showing Proposed Resubdivision of Property of Thomas A.

Brown Agenda Item 10 Page 1 Background & Summary of Proposal • The applicant is proposing to reconfigure the boundaries of the four subject parcels, none of which have direct access to a public street. The parcels are zoned AG-1 Agriculture and are within the Interfacility Traffic Area (ITA), which has a recommended density of one dwelling unit per 15 acres. • The 10,000 square foot parcel (GPIN 14933480820000), addressed as 2888 Indian River Road, was improperly created by deed in Deed Book 691, Page 541 in 1961. It previously contained a single-family dwelling that was demolished in 2019. • The 2-acre parcel (GPIN 14934402160000) was legally subdivided by plat in Map Book 62, Page 43 in 1964 and is therefore a legal parcel capable of by-right development. • The 1.58-acre parcel (GPIN 14934400020000) was legally subdivided by plat in MB 44, Page 12A, and as described in Deed Book 514, Page 414,which was recorded in 1957. The property can therefore be developed by-right in its current state. • The 3.66-acre parcel (GPIN 14933398000000) is a residual piece from a 5-acre parcel that was legally created by Deed Book 224A, Page 271 in 1942. This 5-acre parcel would have been able to develop by right, however, it was improperly subdivided by deed to create two new parcels in Deed Book 684, Page 347 (recorded in 1961) and Instrument Number 200301030001716 (recorded in 2002). The 3.66-acre parcel requires a plat to be recorded for any future development, necessitating the need for this variance. • The proposal results in four parcels with square footages ranging between 1.19 to 2.66 acres along a private lane. Since these lots will not have direct access to a public street, as required by Section 4.4(d) of the Subdivision Regulations, a variance is required. Section 4.4(b) of the Subdivision Regulations requires that all created lots meet the minimum dimensional requirements of the Zoning Ordinance.As each lot has a street-line frontage of zero feet along a public right-of-way, and the AG-1 Zoning District requires a minimum frontage of 120 feet, a variance to Section 4.4(b) is also required.

Strict application of the ordinance would produce undue hardship. B. The authorization of the variance will not be of substantial detriment to adjacent property, and the character of the neighborhood will not be adversely affected. C. The problem involved is not of so general or recurring a nature as to make reasonably practicable the formulation of general regulations to be adopted as an amendment to the ordinance. D. The hardship is created by the physical character of the property, including dimensions and topography, or by other extraordinary situation or condition of such property, or by the use or development of property immediately adjacent thereto. Personal or self-inflicted hardship shall not be considered as grounds for the issuance of a variance. E. The hardship is created by the requirements of the zoning district in which the property is located at the time the variance is authorized whenever such variance pertains to provisions of the Zoning Ordinance incorporated by reference in this ordinance. The proposed reconfiguration of the existing parcels will not further increase the degree of nonconformity.All four parcels will continue to exist without direct access to a public street and therefore continue to have a street-line frontage of zero feet where the Zoning Ordinance required a street-line frontage of 120 feet for property zoned AG-1 Agricultural District. The proposal would allow all four parcels to meet the minimum lot area (1 acre) and lot width requirements (150 feet) of the Agriculture Zoning District and improve access via a widened and paved private road. The subject parcels lie within the AG-1 Agriculture Zoning District and the Interfacility Traffic Area (ITA) Overlay. The requirements of both the zoning district and the overlay limit residential development to one dwelling unit per fifteen (15) acres of developable land for newly created parcels. As the entirety of this proposal only covers 7.48 acres, it then becomes important to demonstrate that approval of these parcels would not constitute an increase in density beyond what currently exists. Thomas A. Brown Agenda Item 10 Page 3 The existing 2-acre and-1.58-acre parcels were legally created by plats in 1964 and 1957 respectively. As such they currently exist as buildable lots with the right to construct one single-family dwelling each. The 10,000 square foot parcel was improperly created by deed in Deed Book 691, Page 541 in 1961. This is similar in nature to 2884 Indian River Road,the property directly to the south, which was also created improperly by deed and granted a Subdivision Variance in 2015 for lack of direct access to a public street and street-line frontage. Unlike 2884 Indian River Road,the 10,000 square foot parcel contained an existing single-family dwelling, built in 1950, until its demolition in 2019. The proposal would therefore not increase the physical density of the area beyond what existed prior to the current Zoning and the Subdivision Regulations. It would also serve to increase the size and width of this parcel to be compliant with the current Zoning Regulations. The 3.66-acre parcel is a residual piece from a 5-acre parcel that was legally created by Deed Book 224A, Page 271 in 1942. This 5-acre parcel would have been able to develop by right, however, it was improperly subdivided by deed to create two new parcels in Deed Book 684, Page 347 (recorded in 1961) and Instrument Number 200301030001716 (recorded in 2002). These two new parcels were purchased by the City of Virginia Beach as part of the Base Realignment and Closure (BRAC) program to reduce density in 2015. As the original 5-acre parcel would have been entitled to one single-family dwelling, and the two parcels created from it are in a program to prevent further development, development of the 3.66 residual piece would not increase density beyond what was originally established in 1942. As the proposal will allow for all lots to better meet the requirements of the Zoning Ordinance, while satisfying the density requirements and recommendations of the Comprehensive Plan and ITA and Vicinity Master Plan, Staff is recommending approval subject to the conditions below. Recommended Conditions 1. The applicant/owner shall submit a resubdivision plat to the City of Virginia Beach, subject to the review and approval of the Department of Planning&Community Development prior to recordation, which shall be in substantial conformance to the submitted plat exhibit entitled "Exhibit Showing Proposed Resubdivision of Property of Thomas A. Brown Known As 2888 Indian River Road and J.C. Davis Parcel 2 AC. +/- and West Neck 4.77 Acres and West Neck Parcel" and dated March 15, 2023, and prepared by Hayden Frye and Associates, Inc. Land Surveyors (the "Exhibit"), a copy of which has been exhibited to the Virginia Beach City Council and is on file with the Department of Planning& Community Development. 2. The applicant/owner shall be required to create the private right-of-way and widen the 15' Private Road serving these parcels to 25' in width and record a Declaration of Private Ingress/Egress and Maintenance Easement along with the dedication of a Public Utility Easement with the Resubdivision Plat, creating the expanded 25'wide private right-of-way from Indian River Road to the subject parcels. The Declaration of Easement shall be submitted to and reviewed by the City of Virginia Beach as part of the Resubdivision Review Process. 3. A turn-around or hammerhead at the terminus of the Private Road shall be constructed in accordance with City standards prior to the sale of the first parcel. 4. The Private Road shall be improved by the applicant with a hard surfaced road that conforms to the Virginia Statewide Fire Prevention Code for fire apparatus access. The road surface must be a minimum of 20' wide and able to support 82,000 pounds of vehicle loading and be an all-weather surface. Fire apparatus must be able to reach the most exterior wall from an approved surfaced roadway which is within 150 feet. The Declaration of Easement shall mandate that Parcels 4, 5, 6, and 7 shall be responsible, along with the applicant's three (3)other parcels using the Private Road for access, which shall also be subject to the Declaration of Easement and for the pro rata share of the costs of maintaining the Private Road. Thomas A. Brown Agenda Item 10 Page 4 5. The applicant/owner will retain, and if necessary, supplement, a 20'treed Buffer Preservation Easement on proposed Parcels 4 and 5 along their shared boundary lines with The Villages of West Neck subdivision. This Buffer Preservation Easement shall be depicted on the Resubdivision Plat,which along with the Easement Agreement shall be submitted to and reviewed by the City of Virginia Beach as part of the Resubdivision review process. 6. The applicant/owner shall be responsible for extending City sanitary sewer service to each parcel and prior to development, each parcel shall connect to City sanitary sewer service in a manner subject to approval by the City of Virginia Beach Department of Public Utilities. 7. A Natural Area Preservation Easement shall be established and depicted on the Resubdivision Plat for the 35,732 square foot area located on the northeastern most portion of Parcel 5 substantially as depicted on the "Exhibit". 8. The four(4) lots and any other lots that are accessing from the proposed private lane shall be submitted as a comprehensive (multi-lot)site plan to address any proposed infrastructure including stormwater management and public utilities. 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 The Comprehensive Plan designates this area as being within the South Princess Anne Commons, a subarea of Princess Anne Commons SEGA 4.South Princess Anne Commons lies within the Interfacility Traffic Area (ITA) between NAS Oceana and NALF Fentress, a designation that reduces by-right residential density, yet still offers a unique opportunity for education, entertainment, recreation, habitat preservation, by-right rural residential, and agricultural and related activities. It is not the intent for this area to become part of the urban area north of the Green Line. Instead,the general goals are for creation of quality development, a planned mix of public and private uses, exceptional open spaces, and to design with nature. In addition to the Comprehensive Plan, the ITA and Vicinity Master Plan provides more detailed land use plan and recommendations for this area. The preferred land use plan designates this site as Agricultural/Rural Residential and calls for low density residential and agricultural farmettes. Natural & Cultural Resources Impacts The site is located in the Southern Rivers Watershed. There are no known natural or cultural resources associated with the sites. Thomas A.

The Master Transportation Plan proposes a divided facility within a 150-foot right-of-way for Indian River Rd. An undeveloped section of West Neck Parkway borders the subject properties. The Master Transportation Plan shows this section as a future expansion, but states that the alignment of West Neck Parkway(from North Landing Road to Indian River Road) has been moved to the area just west of Courthouse Estates to line up with the north-south portion of Landstown Road (from North Landing Road to Landstown Road).There are no current plans to expand the roadway. No Capital Improvement Projects are slated for this area. Public Utility Impacts Water City water is not readily available to the property. Health Department approval is required for private wells. A connection to City water may be possible via private easements. Sewer City sanitary sewer is not currently available to the property. Condition 6 requires all parcels to connect to City sanitary sewer service in a manner subject to approval by the City of Virginia Beach Department of Public Utilities Public Outreach Information Planning Commission • As required by the Zoning Ordinance,the public notice sign(s)was placed on the property on April 10, 2023. • As required by State Code,this item was advertised in the Virginian-Pilot Beacon on Sundays, April 23, 2023 and April 30, 2023. • As required by City Code,the adjacent property owners were notified regarding the request and the date of the Planning Commission public hearing on April 24, 2023. • This Staff report, as well as all reports for this Planning Commission's meeting,was posted on the Commission's webpage of www.vbgov.com/pc on May 4, 2023.

Brown (Applicant & Property Owner) Subdivision Variance (Section 4.4(b) & (d) of the Subdivision Regulations) RECOMMENDED FOR APPROVAL Mr. Alcaraz: All right. Thank you. What's our next item here? Number 10. Thomas Brown. Madam Clerk: Yeah, agenda item number 10, Thomas A. Brown is an application for a subdivision variance section 4.4(b) and (d) of the subdivision regulations at 2888 Indian River Road. The parcel north of 2888 Indian River Road and two parcels on the east of A 15-foot-wide private lane north of Indian River Road in Council district two. Mr. Alcaraz: Go ahead. Just state your name. Mr. Bourdon: I've got a handout that's a large plan that shows the what's before you today and also the plan that shows on a larger 11/17 that shows the ultimate development of these what are, what will actually be with the three parcels that are already before council that were before council and indefinitely deferred while we figured the title stuff out on this, which has taken, this application has taken quite a while because the title issues with regard to the two parcels on the, the east side of the private road. There were some complicated things that had to be, we had to go way back and everybody, staff were all in agreement that what's before us today or before you today are four parcels of land. All of which can have a resident constructed on them and served by private road. So, the variance that's requested is the same access only to be far improved as what exists today, but it'll be a better road in all respects. So, we've got, as Aubrey did an excellent job in the pre-briefing of explaining this. I'm not gonna go in all the details that, that's the first time I've ever written a three-page narrative on a subdivision variance to explain the title stuff and I'm not gonna get into all that. But so we've got, before you have four parcels upon which a house can be built on each one of them and this proposal is to reconfigure those parcels so that you have a much better pattern of development. The road, the private road will remain a private road, but there will be an additional dedication to increase its width from 15 feet to 25 feet per the conditions and as offered by Mr. Brown who's here today, that road will be improved to state fire prevention code standards. There will be a turnaround at the end of it that meets the City Ordinance requirements, very importantly, city sewer will be extended from Candle Pine Lane up this private road to serve all of the proposed dwellings, the four that are before you today. We have the density overall doesn't increase a bit. The density is just under one unit per two acres for the entire seven parcels that are in existence today, and that will be reconfigured four that are before you today, three that have already been recommended for approval and are before Council and this will go to Council together. The folks who live in the villages west neck abutting this property, their density over the entire development is two units per acre. Again, this is one per every two acres or just under, and the lots are obviously very small because they're clustered with the golf course that hopefully will come back one of these days. What we are doing is all the area at the very top north that's surrounded by property, owned by the City of Virginia Beach to both the east and the north, we're putting, agree to put a restriction on that property that'll be preserved as it is natural wooded area, enforceable by the city. We have no concerns if the Villages West Neck Homeowner Association wants to take some, you know, lead and making sure that that's stays the case moving forward, but that we'll, we're putting it in the deed restrictions and so that exists the same is true. We're talking about doing a 20 foot, retaining a 20-foot tree buffer on these properties adjacent to the existing homes in the Villages West Neck and that also applies to the three lots that are already before Council that are being reconfigured, that are closer to Indian River Road, that'll be serviced by this road. This road will have a shared maintenance agreement that all seven eventual houses to be built on, it will have to be responsible, will be solely responsible for its maintenance. Candle Pine Lane is similarly a private road, all this property was zoned agriculture unrestricted until 1968 and basically my characterization of that is zoning with no restrictions is really not zoning, and that's how this, you know, situation came to exist. Mr. Brown is doing what I think everyone a big service by having this property developed, you know, the way it should be developed, and most importantly to those who may be concerned about stormwater, the density of this property and the amount of trees, it certainly won't produce the stormwater. The lack of density won't produce the amount of stormwater that the surrounding existing developments have. The last condition, which we are not asking to be removed, but I just will point out the running of the models for this property wouldn't be required if we developed the lot as or the parcels as they currently are and Mr. Brown is agreeable to the condition, but just want me to put on the record that if it, because some of these models that they've never been run before experienced with this, they have errors in them. We've cleaned up a lot of that. The development community has sacrificed a lot of money in helping the city in that regard in some other sub catchment areas, but this development doesn't have the ability to have to do 10 or 12 runs of the model. So, we're not saying take it out, but I'm just putting that out there. If the modeling, you know, causes it to have to be run multiple times, that it may just go back to being developed as it is because it just won't be economically feasible to do all these other improvements and run the model time after time, after time. But we appreciate the staffs recommendation, hope that you all see the benefit of this as it's the best way for these properties to be developed and happy to answer any questions you may have. Mr. Alcaraz: All right. Any questions? All right, Mr. Bourdon, we'll have you give you a chance to rebut once we hear from some other speakers. Mr. Bourdon: Thank you, all right. Mr. Alcaraz: Go ahead. Madam Clerk: The first speaker is Albert Daley, followed by Keith Lynch. Mr. Alcaraz: Sir, you can just state your name. Mr. Daley: I am Albert Daley. Good afternoon, everyone. On a personal level, I'll be deeply saddened by the removal of nature for the construction project submitted for approval. The present condition of the surrounding land is a main reason for purchasing the property and purchasing the property in 2012. Hopefully the lots that are proposed will be big enough to minimize the natural impact and initially it did not seem probable that any construction would take place anytime soon as there was a proposed roadway that was far back on the list of improvements. The major concern for myself and think for most of my neighbors, is the drainage. Although I'm at the high end of Charisma Court, I had to spend over $7,000 to improve drainage, which included four drains and installing flower beds to try to soak up the water. The backyard was so wet, no grass would grow, and all we had was mud, as I consider myself the lucky one on the street in that regard. Although I still have some wet and muddy areas in my back and my side yards. I would just ask to please take into consideration the drainage problem with the removal of trees and the building up of the land for construction before approving this project. As you know, the area in question at this time is very swampy with little or no access. It's very concerning to think about more water runoff coming the way of the residents in our community. In addition to the above, some questions I have are who will monitor the condition of the proposed natural area to end of Charisma Court for any tree problems such as down to rotten trees that may be become a problem. Also, who will be responsible to make sure this stays a natural area, free of any clearing or any building, and who will maintain and monitor their proposed roadway into the construction site. Also, the traffic on Indian River Road is pretty dangerous with the narrow condition of the road and are there any plans to widen this road, especially with the current increase in developments? Lastly, if this plan has approved and proceeds forward, what if we still have flooding along the backyards of the property owners along Charisma Court and other affected homeowners? And I'd just like to thank everybody for this opportunity to voice my opinion and appreciate it, and everyone has a great day. Mr. Alcaraz: Mr. Daley, where do you live? Mr. Daley: Number 43 is my lot. Mr. Alcaraz: Okay. Are there any questions for Mr. Daley? Thank you, sir. Mr. Daley: Thank you very much. Appreciate it. Mr. Horsley: I have one. Mr. Alcaraz: Oh, sure. Mr. Horsley. Hold on sir. Mr. Horsley: Sir, did you say that water runs off of this property onto your property? Is that what you said? Mr. Daley: Well, we just wanna make sure that it doesn't happen. Mr. Horsley: Okay. Mr. Daley: Everything is wet right now and we just don't want it to become worse by removal of trees and building up of construction sites for homes and, you know, they usually raise those up so everything's gonna run off of there. So we're concerned. Mr. Horsley: Okay. Thank you. Mr. Daley: Is that it? Mr. Alcaraz: Thank you, sir. Mr. Daley: Thank you very much. Appreciate it. Madam Clerk: Keith Lynch, followed by Thomas Carini. Mr. Alcaraz: How are you doing Mr. Lynch? Just state your name. Mr. Carini: Good afternoon, everybody. Thomas Carini. C-A-R-I-N-I. I basically wanna say these few things. I think possibly to retain the water to have access water pond in the back and will the road be entering? Well, will the road be entering? I see the planning now, so I kind of understand that a little more. Indian River Road needs to be updated. There are quite a few accidents and it's flooding. How will the utilities be brought into the homes, sewers, electric, gas, and water. That's very important and we were looking for a 40-foot setback from our back, I am lot number 44. Some examples of flooding, boat creek, the golf course and the rec center are built right on a stream, Asheville Park, you have all kinds of flooding. Bernard Street of Seaboard ever since I built the school that street floods and Indian River Road floods on any heavy rain, I don't how they're gonna make a 90 degree turn into this road and thank you for listening to me. It's important that Indian River Road be fixed first, I think. Thank you. Mr. Alcaraz: Mr. Carini any questions? Thank you. Did you call Mr. Lynch? Madam Clerk: Yes, recalling Keith Lynch. Mr. Alcaraz: Afternoon, you can just state your name for the record. Mr. Lynch: God afternoon. My name is Keith Lynch. I'm from lot 45 of the group here before you today. Before starting, I'd like to make one request of you folks and I know because I understand as a former public servant, this is a very important job but I would respectfully request that you take a time while you're here, sometime during your hours of work, take a ride down the road one mile and ride through the West Neck Community and see what has taken place there because of what developers promised, developers planned, the city supported, the city zoned, and too often builders we're left with the residue. They buy it, they build it. They bade us into it. We had a wonderful community; the centerpiece of our community is terrible. The emotional and devastation for people 70s and 80s years old has been tremendous. So, I want to thank you for your work, but encourage you, please take a ride and see the pride, 90% of that community is own or occupied. The people were made promises, promises weren't kept, and it really has had a debilitating effect on beyond what you can imagine unless you live there. My thoughts are primary. There's a nexus to this and that, of course is a density. I live next door to Tommy. I cut our grass today. My grass between, there's still standing water between my house and his house. So, with that, I've got some bullet points I'd like to share with you. There are seven homes that are greatly affected now by the current proposal, and I do respect property values. I've been involved in these situations. Water mitigations of great concern of all, you know that. Water density was increased, and the density was increased by adding the golf course. It's also interested to note that all the land that was moved, all the modifications made to make the contours of a golf course, all four retention pines in the West Neck Community are on the golf course. There is none. The current people that we're fighting with who've threatened to arrest us for going on the property have let put steel walls behind the property for people who have complained, have threatened us with their deep pockets and so forth, and continue to do so. My latest information is coming up, our homeowner association that they have now made accusations, at least innuendo. Then maybe we started the fire in the six-foot weeds since... Mr. Alcaraz: Mr. Lynch can we just focus on this agenda item now? Mr. Lynch: Yeah, we can. Mr. Alcaraz: Okay, thank you. Mr. Lynch: The increased density is a direct contradiction to the city's comprehensive plan. In October after Matthew, it resulted in a flood protection provided for the city. A bond referendum was passed. The proposed 20-foot buffer when water mitigation would be a major concern and entirely inadequate. The development of the round property would definitely decrease the ability to land of sore water, increase impervious services, including structures, hardscape, required access roads, driveways, sidewalks, and other amenities such as pools, tennis courts, or out buildings. Additionally, there's 175 yards of woods you can't seize through right now behind our house. Additionally, the undoubted removal of deciduous trees, which can absorb 11,000 gallons of water per tree would provide -- would be extremely harmful. Our zip code receives 47 inches of rain a year, 623 gallons per inch for every thousand square feet of hardscape and impervious surfaces. There's a runoff of 29,000 gallons of water. Based on these figures, a 20- foot buffer is totally inadequate. Our house is 31 feet from our property line, which would mean we could be 51 feet from a structure on this property, you can, you have to ride there to see the smallness of our lots, the current vegetation a natural buffer of 70 feet protecting the vegetation would greatly benefit the water mitigation and provide us with a natural area that we paid for, all these lots were prime lots. Folks, this is a very important decision and for all of us. Mr. Alcaraz: I'm gonna have to interrupt you. Mr. Lynch: If you have any questions, I'll be happy to answer, thank you. Mr. Alcaraz: Any questions? Thank you, sir. Mr. Lynch: Thank you. Mr. Alcaraz: Next speaker. Madam Clerk: That's all the speakers. Mr. Alcaraz: All right, Mr. Bourdon, if you'd like to come forward and... Mr. Bourdon: The first thing I wanna, wanna say is Mr. Lynch's concerns, I agree with him a thousand percent. As far as what has happened to the golf course at West Neck, it is an abomination, and I could not agree with him. I think he's hit that part of this spot on, but that's a different matter and hopefully. Mr. Lynch: Is it possible to turn your mic, I can't hear you and you're talking about me. Mr. Bourdon: Okay. Mr. Alcaraz: He is actually complimenting you. Mr. Bourdon: I am agreeing with you what your big point is, and I completely empathize and sympathize as I'm certain all members of the commission do as well. So, it's that's not falling on deaf ears. I can assure you of that, but the stormwater issue, when that development took place, we didn't have stormwater regulations we have today, and we didn't have the modeling that we have today. This property is not creating the problems that they are experiencing because it's completely natural at this point. It's, if anything, I do believe, I can't swear to it, but I do believe when this is all said and done, their circumstance will be improved from a drainage standpoint, it certainly won't be hindered in any way by this development. The 20-foot buffer is a visual buffer. The stormwater management will be something that'll be, you know, dealt with through this site plan, approval process that is condition number eight, that water, that will be, what water will be coming off of this, you know, very one unit per, almost two acres of land development will be handled on site and there will be no water that will be discharged from this site onto their properties. But again, I get that, but, you know, we have a, and the bond refer and everything else, the city's spending so much money to make sure that we don't create stormwater problems in the future and that's the protection here. Developing the property as it is with seven, in this case, four lots would not require that. So, the reality of it is, is it, it can only be beneficial or neutral. It cannot be worse, and it won't be worse in any way and the other issue is not something that Mr. Brown can do anything about, but I do believe, there's hope that that situation may come to a positive conclusion. But patience will be the key word. The road that'll be built, as I said earlier will meet the safety requirements, this is not creating additional development units at all, just making them better for everyone involved and that's why your staff has recommended approval. The conditions, as I've said, are acceptable and I'll be happy to answer any questions you may have. Mr. Alcaraz: Thank you, Mr. Bourdon. Any questions? So, Mr. Bourdon, I'll ask, so right now there are four lots, there are four lots, correct right now? Mr. Bourdon:There are four pieces of property now upon which a house can be constructed on. Mr. Alcaraz: And what is the width of that, I guess? Is it a dirt road, pave road going back? Mr. Bourdon: The width is 15 feet, 15, one and five. Mr. Alcaraz: And you're gonna make it what? Mr. Bourdon: 25. Mr. Alcaraz: With a turnaround or a cul-de-sac? Mr. Bourdon: With a hammerhead at the end, paved to handle all the heavy fire equipment, the width of the pavement, et cetera, the depth of the pavement and all, and the utilities being primarily city sewer will come in from the south,from Candle Pine. And if y'all haven't been down driven Candle Pine, and I think it's Riddick Lane, the quality of the homes there, the quality of the homes here will be equal or likely better, but those are very, very nice homes. They will not be inexpensive homes at all and the people who will build them and live in them will be able to afford to maintain the road because it'll be, you know, built, you know, brand new and so it's not, not something that's gonna be an issue until years down the road. And HOA will be mandatory, they'll have to pay into it for the maintenance of the road in the future. Mr. Alcaraz: Is there any, it was brought up, is there any plans for a turn lane or anything at Indian River, improvements? Mr. Bourdon: We don't have, we don't have any property that's on Indian River Road on the east side of Indian River, on the east side of where this road intersects with it. So there, I don't believe that there is in, because Indian River Road in a lot of spots, it's only 30 feet wide as far as right of way. I don't believe there's right of way there today. I believe the city though does own the, they may not own the one property directly adjacent to the east, northeast corner, but further and may be even adjacent, but the next one over they own, it's, there's no house there. It's what Aubrey was referring to in the informal that where the city had bought a couple of lots out there that could have been built on using some of the state money from ACUS or its money that we got to reduce density based on some, I won't get it. I don't wanna misstate how it works, but they, the city owns the properties along the Indian River Road, but I don't know that they own the one directly adjacent. If they do, then there's certainly the opportunity to do that. Mr. Alcaraz: And this is gonna be a private road, not public? Mr. Bourdon: Yeah private road, yes. Mr. Alcaraz: Okay. All right. Any other questions, Mr. Horsley? Mr. Horsley: No, I've just got a couple. I don't have other questions for Mr. Bourdon. just got a couple of comments to make. I am very aware of some of the problems that the people in West Neck have been having but this is entirely a different situation. Hopefully something can be done to rectify the problems at West Neck, because that's I think I was probably on planning commission when that was approved originally. I remember when it was farmland and before it was developed and it was approved and it developed and it was, it flourished at that time. But that's not this application. This application is a big improvement over what could be done there and the dense is not going to change and with the stormwater management program that we have in play now, I don't think you people have got to worry about any water running off of this property onto your property. Whether your water can run on them or not, I don't imagine that's gonna happen, but their property will be taken care of through the stormwater ordinance. So really think this is an improvement for this property and I would support this application. Mr. Alcaraz: All right. Thank you, Mr. Horsley. Is there any other comments Commissioners? None, can I have a motion? Mr. Horsley: I make a motion, the application be approved. Mr. Alcaraz: Motion by Mr. Horsley. I need a second. Mr. Coston: Second. Mr. Alcaraz: Second by Mr. Coston. Madam Clerk: The vote is now open. Mr. Clemons? By a vote of eight to zero, the item has been recommended for approval. Mr. Alcaraz: All right. Thank you. All right. Next item.

Mr. Aubrey Trebilcock Virginia Beach Department of Planning atrebilcock@vbgov.com As per our phone conversation on May 05, 2023 I am following up with an email describing my continued concerns for the development of above mentioned properties. On a personal level I will be deeply saddened by the removal of Nature for the construction project submitted for approval.

Regards Albert and Mary Daly 2937 Charisma Court Virginia Beach, Virginia 23456 419-779-5323 Aldaly730@gmail.com Re: Thomas A. Brown Subdivision Variance 2888 Indian River Road 2020-PCCC-00293 May 3, 2023 Dear Mr. Trebilcock, We are writing to again express our concerns about the above variance application. It seems that now the applicant wishes to reconfigure two lots to create FOUR salable buildable lots of equal size, resulting in one house on each lot, which is of even greater concern than the original application creating two lots. Our concerns remain the following: 1) When we purchased our house in December, 2016, we assumed that the woods behind it would not be developed, which is why we chose this particular location. 2) Much more importantly, it has taken us several years to control the significant drainage problem we experience in our backyard. Our efforts, combined with those of our immediate neighbors, created French drains, buried gravel ditches, and buried downspouts, costing several thousands of dollars. The trees on the proposed lots currently help to control an already poor drainage area. If we lose a significant number of trees in the woods for creation of four buildable lots, the drainage situation will be greatly exacerbated - not only for our property, but for the proposed lots as well. We urge you to consider whatever steps that can be taken to mitigate this potential threat to our property. Please forward our concerns to the members of the Planning Commission for consideration before the hearing on May 10. Sincerely, Eleanor Massie and John Taylor 2956 Elegance Lane Virginia Beach, VA 23456 508-237-1382 Emassie4@aol.com Mr.Trebilcock, Thank you for contacting us today,Thursday, May 4, 2023 in regard to the situation about Mr.Thomas Brown building homes behind our home at 2933 Charisma Ct. in West Neck community. As you are aware our neighbors as well as us are quite concerned about the issue of building homes in the woods behind our homes. Which are on wet lands causing flooding on our property. Again, along with our neighbors, we have spent thousand of dollars on trying to repair the flooding on our property,there is no run off! The trees in the woods soak up an abundance of rain water. So for us to loose the trees,would only exacerbate the situation. Therefore, building homes in the woods would also be devastating for new homes as well as us. Mr. Trebilcock we thank you in advance for allowing us to voice our concerns and hopefully you are very much concerned as well as we are regarding the flooding problem.... Here are the questions regarding this situation. 1.A retention pond to hold the excess water is needed. 2. Will there be a road entering the homes? 3. Indian river road needs to be updated! 4. How will the utilities be brought into these homes, sewer, electric,gas, and water? 5.A 40 foot set back behind our lot. Examples of flooding 1. Bow Creek golf course floods because the rec center is over a stream. 2. Ashville Park floods after heavy rain. As well as our property already. 3. Bernadette St floods off Seaboard Ave, since the school was built. 4. Indian River Road floods after every heavy rain the same as our yard. Thomas and Maryann Carini 2933 Charisma Court 757 689 8707 CARINI2@COX.NET Hello! I would like to submit a letter of opposition to Mr. Thomas Brown future development on Indian River Road.This new development will negatively impact the drainage of neighboring properties including ours. I want to make sure the city of Virginia Beach is aware how wet it is around our properties. When it rains the ditches/swales are already maxed out. I would highly recommend that the Site Planning Commission request a full drainage plan for all 7 site plans. Respectfully, Justyna Dlugolecka 2900 Indian River Road TO: Mr. Aubrey A. Trebilcock Staff Planner RE: Subdivision Variance (section 4.4(b) & (d) of Subdivision regulations Thomas Brown property 2888 Indian River Road Mr. Trebilcock, thank you for returning our call to discuss the concerns with the above variance. As you know my wife and I, as well as all the affected owners of Charisma Court have expressed serious concerns about this project. All the affected property owners paid a premium for our lots due to the natural area behind our homes. We were all told that this was City property and was eventually to be used for the extension of West Neck Parkway. That plan was never put into action. Our concern, and those of our neighbors, who are now in their seventies and eighties, is that this proposed variance will negatively affect their quality of life and their property value. The following is a list of our concerns: • Seven homes now are directly affected by the current proposal • Water mitigation is of GREAT concern to all involved. As you know West Neck's housing density was increased by allowing the golf course to meet the open space requirements for housing density. This has caused our entire community, and especially this area, to be extremely wet. We have personally spent more than $10,000 to regrade, sink downspouts, add 7 additional drains, and extensive planting to allow us to use our yard. Other neighbors have also taken similar measures. • This increase in density is in direct contradiction with the City's comprehensive plan. On October 9, 2016, Virginia Beach suffered post-tropical storm Matthew. This event resulted in flood protection being a priority for the city. • While our properties are not CURRENTLY in the FEMA-regulated flood plain, it should be of concern to AE Flood Zone is just on the other side of Indian River Road, less than 1,000 feet from this proposed variance. • This current proposal provides a 20-foot buffer, with water mitigation to be a major concern, we feel this to be entirely inadequate. The development of the Brown property would significantly decrease the ability of the land to absorb excess water by the increase of the impervious surfaces; including structures, hardscape, required access roads, driveways, sidewalks, and other amenities that may be added to the properties including pools, tennis courts, outbuildings, etc. • Additionally, the undoubted removal of deciduous trees, each of which can absorb 11,000 gallons of water per tree, would prove to be extremely harmful. Our zip code receives an average of 47 inches of rain (623 gallons of water per inch). Every 1,000 square feet of impervious surface can result in a runoff of 29,000 gallons of water. • Based on those figures, a 20-foot buffer is totally inadequate. Our HOUSE is currently 31 feet from our property line; therefore a 20-foot buffer would put our HOUSE only 51 feet from a possible to-be-built structure. A natural buffer of 70 feet, protecting the current vegetation would benefit water mitigation and provide us with the natural area we currently enjoy. In conclusion, without serious alterations that address WATER MITIGATION, TREE REMOVAL, AND AN EFFECTIVE NATURAL AREA AND THE LOCATION OF PROPOSED STRUCTURES, we respectfully request that this variance be denied for the reasons outlined above. Jack and Nora Lynch Lot 45 2929 Charisma Court Virginia Beach, VA Planning Commissioners, The same issues continue with the planning department applying urban development guidelines to the Southern Rivers Watershed. As someone who lives directly downstream from this proposal—you created a public nuisance. Even urban subdivision regulations require a delineation of wetlands. Mun. Code § 6.1(n). You cannot arrive at the minimum lot area without one. Mun. Code § 2(b)(4). So, where is it? While the rules are stricter due to this property's location in the ITA, planning has not ensured elementary compliance applicable to the Agricultural Districts. Mun Code §405. Additionally,there are wells and septic systems required for these lots. While the applicant may'think' he will extend services —they are not currently available. Upstream and downstream delineations are required under the Virginia Code. These requirements protect the health and safety of residents,the `hardship'this builder is attempting to claim is shared equally among all residents in the district. A new purchaser does not get to come in and place wells/septic systems on one acre of property when current inhabitants with more acreage cannot physically do so. Perhaps Mr. Brown should reconsider purchasing wetlands in a deliberate attempt to profit from placing additional individuals in an unhealthy situation. Please start ensuring that every single proposal in the Southern Rivers Watershed complies with the regulations. This is still a critically impaired watershed, and you have residents which rely upon you. Please excuse the brevity and grammar of this email as it was sent from a mobile device.

Comprehensive Plan Recommendations The site is located in the Hilltop Strategic Growth Area on land designated for non-residential mixed-use development. Design principles for the SGA aim to provide a mixture of retail,offices, restaurants, and other non-residential uses and comply with AICUZ land use requirements. Given that the use is compatible within the greater than 75 dB noise zone, adding the proposed use to an existing business would be appropriate as the area continues to develop toward the SGA's vision of a walkable, urban environment; mixing uses will have the added benefit of reducing the number of local vehicle trips in the area.Adding a complementary use to an existing business would be supported by the Comprehensive Plan as this area continues to evolve. Natural & Cultural Resources Impacts The site is located in the Chesapeake Bay Watershed.There are no proposed exterior alterations or site improvements with this application. No cultural resources will be affected by this request.

COUNCIL DISTRICT 5 MEETING DATE: June 20, 2023 • Background: The applicant is requesting a Conditional Use Permit to operate a two-bedroom Short Term Rental unit within the Dolphin Run Condominium tower located at 303 Atlantic Avenue. • Considerations: The applicant is requesting to operate a two-bedroom Short Term Rental in a multi- family residential dwelling unit located within the Dolphin Run Condominium tower.

The parcel is bounded by the Boardwalk, Beach, and Atlantic Ocean to the east, the 4th Street Connector Park to the north, the 3rd Street Connector Park to the south, and Atlantic Avenue to the west. The surrounding area is a mixture of multi-family dwellings, commercial retail, resort hotels, mixed-use buildings, and other resort- oriented uses. There is one assigned parking space associated with this unit, in the Condominium's parking garage. According to Section 2303(b)(a)(ii) of the Zoning Ordinance, the Zoning Administrator may allow certain condominium properties which have historically operated as short term lodging units to provide 1 parking space per dwelling unit rather than the 1 space per bedroom typically required for short term rentals. The Dolphin Run Condominiums are one such property granted a historical exception to the Short Term Rental parking requirements. 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. • 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.

The dwelling unit shall comply with all required Fire and Building code requirements. 4. Off-street parking shall be provided as required by Section 241.2 and 2303(b)(a)(i)(ii) of the City Zoning Ordinance or as approved by City Council. 5.

The site was constructed in 1975 and is located along Atlantic Avenue near the southern terminus of the Boardwalk and Rudee Loop. Since the site is located in the Oceanfront Resort (OR) Short Term Rental Overlay District, Short Term Rental use is expected. Several of the units within the condominium have previously received approvals for Short Term Rentals.The parcel is bounded by the Boardwalk, Beach, and Atlantic Ocean to the east,the 4'Street Connector Park to the north,the 3rd Street Connector Park to the south, and Atlantic Avenue to the west. The surrounding area is a mixture of multi-family dwellings, commercial retail, resort hotels, mixed-use buildings, and other resort-oriented uses. The subject property lies along the Atlantic Avenue Corridor, which includes the most prominent frontage of resort- oriented uses at the Oceanfront Resort. According to the Resort Area Strategic Action Plan (RASAP) 2030, residential and mixed-use development in the Resort Area is necessary to achieve the goal of a year-round destination, affording a more Caroline, LLC Agenda Item 11 Page 3 walkable,vibrant, engaging community at the Oceanfront Resort.The use of the dwelling as a short term rental helps achieve this goal by providing diverse lodging opportunities for visitors seeking unique travel experiences. There is one assigned parking space associated with this unit, labeled Space A-19 on the first floor of the attached parking deck. According to City of Virginia Beach Zoning Ordinance,Appendix A,Article 23,Section 2303, (b), a., ii., "There are certain condominium properties that have historically operated as short term lodging units and have not experienced any inconvenience to guests or the surrounding area without the required one (1) parking space per bedroom. Further, such properties are unable to provide the required parking on-site. For these condominium properties,the Zoning Administrator may, at his discretion, require one (1) parking space per dwelling unit similar to the requirement for lodging uses in the Oceanfront Resort District Form Based Code (ORDFBC). Such properties must provide written evidence of their past use and the Zoning Administrator shall find that there is no public inconvenience with the current parking design." Dolphin Run Condominiums is one such property granted a historical exception to the Short Term Rental parking requirements of one space per bedroom;therefore, only one parking space is required for the entire unit. This unit has been previously advertised and hosted stays as a Short Term Rental. However,this was done under a previous property owner, not the current owner/applicant, Caroline, LLC. All other requirements of Section 241.2 and Section 2303 of the Zoning Ordinance regulating Short Term Rentals can be reasonably met with this application.

Mr. Alcaraz: Please come forward and state your name. Mr. Luliano: Hi, I'm Nicholas Luliano. Mr. Alcaraz: And you're the owner. Mr. Luliano: Oh, sorry, thought you were asking me, I said my last name. I get that all the time. Yeah, so the property owner at 505 20 and a 1/2 Street. Mr. Alcaraz: All right, go ahead. Mr. Luliano: All the conditions are acceptable. Mr. Alcaraz: Okay. Is there any questions? None. All right. I think we have some opposition, so we're gonna hear them. We're gonna give you a chance to come back. Mr. Luliano: Okay, thank you. Mr. Alcaraz: Thank you. First speaker. Madam Clerk: Calling Sandy Dietrich, followed by Sarah Welch. Mr. Alcaraz: Hello, if you can just state your name and your address. Ms. Dietrich: Sandra Dietrich, 518 20 and a 1/2 Street. Mr. Alcaraz: Okay. Ms. Dietrich: The house, the two structures that are duplex, it's actually a four-plex that are requesting are down the street from us. They have very tight parking almost no green space, only one of the units has green space in front. None in back because they're, it's a four unit complex, 20 and a 1/2 Street has no street parking. There is, it's an alley. So there is no off street parking. It's very, very tight street. So it's difficult for two cars to pass. So that's one of our concerns, but our main concern is having lived there for five years is when parties and, it gets out of control. There's more than the allotted number of house guests permitted, and we had an incident a couple of years ago where there were over a hundred people in one of the units next door to us, and the police came, tried to empty the house of the, all the extra guests and the police told us there was no recourse. Their hands were tied and at a recent, at a recent Beach Resort Civic Meeting, we had someone up, sergeant from the second precinct who again confirmed that the police hands are tied. So when there's a large party or something going on, unless a crime is committed, they have no recourse. As a neighbor, we have no recourse other than to call the police, maybe they can empty the house, but that is it. The other concern is that we found out that the planning commission has never revoked a conditional use permit. So as neighbors in the neighborhood, we have no recourse. We're permanent residents, but we have no one. The police hands are tied. The Planning Commission is issuing all these conditional use permits, but as permanent residents, we just don't have a recourse and if you call the number on the signs that are now required for short term rentals, it goes to a voicemail and then you get no call back. Also, if you don't know the owner, how do you get in touch if there is a problem? And now the house behind us, that owner has moved to Texas. So if there were issues, we can, we have his email, but what do we do? Again, there's no recourse. So we just feel that as permanent residents who want to live in a nice neighborhood close to the beach, we're as residents, we're not being heard. It's more like you're treating the neighborhoods as a tourist destination as opposed to the permanent residents that we just have no recourse. So I feel that the Planning Commission should take a look at maybe placing some kind of density cap per block so that a block does not have all short term rentals, that there is a balance between permanent residents and short term rentals. So I just asked for your consideration in this like I say, the street is very narrow, we are in alley, we'd like to remain a neighborhood as more where you get to know your neighbors rather than people checking in and checking out and checking in and checking out. Mr. Alcaraz: All right, Ms. Dietrich, I'm gonna ask if there are any questions for her before she sits. I have a couple of questions anyway. The incident was that a short term rental, a licensed one that was next door to you? Ms. Dietrich: I'm not sure that they were licensed at the time. We also have a, I will add one more other thing we have. Mr. Alcaraz: Well, I just wanna specifically the hundred person party was that licensed? Ms. Dietrich: I'm not, I'm not sure if they had, Mr. Alcaraz: I'm just trying to see what, you know, jurisdiction the planning staff has. Ms. Dietrich: But there were a hundred people. There were 10 police cars, and the police said there was nothing they could do. Mr. Alcaraz: Well, the staffs here, I'm sure they're taking this in and they'll see what they can do. I'm not sure, as long as I've been here, I don't know if we've ever revoked STR, but I mean, I don't know. I don't think we have. Ms. Dietrich: That's what I'm saying. You haven't, so. Mr. Alcaraz: Because it's still new and they're going through the process. Where is your house compared to this one? Ms. Dietrich: We're on the opposite side of the street about 1, 2, 3, 4. Mr. Alcaraz: So you're on 21st then? Ms. Dietrich: I'm on 20 and a 1/2. Mr. Alcaraz: This is 20th and a 1/2, right? But you're on the other side of the street. Ms. Dietrich: Right. Mr. Alcaraz: So, okay. Ms. Dietrich: We're on the opposite side of the street. Mr. Alcaraz: So 518. So you're closer like Town Bank. Ms. Dietrich: I'm sorry. Mr. Alcaraz: You're closer to Town Bank that way, not West, I'm trying to get your bearings where you're at. Ms. Dietrich: I'm just across the. Mr. Alcaraz: This is 505 and you're 518. Ms. Dietrich: I'm 518. I'm only about five doors up on the opposite side. Mr. Alcaraz: Okay. Is there any other questions, Mr. Coston? Mr. Coston: I just had a comment. I believe the staff added people who could respond to these types of complaints. Is that not so? Ms. Sabo: For staff, absolutely responds to when we get violations, unfortunately we don't work 24 hours a day, so if there is a complaint that comes in after hours that would go to police, they would be the ones who respond to that. If police respond, we have a good relationship with the police. If they respond to a short term rental, we are notified so that we can make note of that, and take the proper violation action if necessary for that short term rental, but we do respond to that. Mr. Coston: So that's something that's been added since a few years ago so that they can track if there's an issue at a short term rental so that you can get that complaint in, that would then cause the revoking of a short term rental at some point. Ms. Dietrich: Well, in response to that, we have at 526 20 1/2 Street, he does not have a conditional use permit and he's still running un illegitimate short term rental. So, and we've made complaints and I'll look into that property. So again, that's our concern. Thank you for your time. Mr. Alcaraz: Thank you. Madam Clerk: Sarah Welch. Ms. Welch: Good afternoon, thank you for your time. My name's Sarah Welch and reside at 522 20 and a 1/2 Street. I'm right down the street from the proposed rentals four or five houses down. I stand in opposition of these short term rentals for the rationale that the street's already active, very active in my opinion with the short term rentals at 518, 525, and the unpermitted one at 524, which is directly next to my property. There are 35 houses between Mediterranean and Baltic because that's where we're at and on the, between the north side of 20th, the South side of 20 and a 1/2 and 21st street. So that's where the 35 houses are. With the current number of short term rentals, we've had situations of loud tenants, parking issues, lawns unkempt, I've submitted photos in the past to the short term rental community. Every time there's a renter in our illegal home that's right next to mine. We also have had one at that Sandy mentioned at 516 where the owners tried short term renting and it blew up, and they quickly stopped doing it, regularly especially through the hundred days of summer that we all love between Memorial Day and Labor Day, there are parking issues or actually travel issues when you're trying to get in and out of Mediterranean and Baltic, when people are moving in and out. There are not many parking spots typically for these houses and so when people are moving in, they have a tendency to park where they can and then park behind those cars while they're moving in and moving out. Again on this alleyway, you're trying to go get groceries on a Saturday, I work full-time. You're trying to go get groceries on a Saturday and, you know, you struggle getting out onto the street. So I just think that with these additional short-term rentals, the parking issues are gonna increase. I had a situation where I had a renter come to my property, ring my doorbell, ask me if they could pay me to park in my driveway while they were renting the house next door. We continuously have folks who live on 21st Street, but their driveways are on 20 and a 1/2. The renter's park in their driveways, and then they try to get out and they have to go to the house and ask the renters to move their car so they can get out their driveway. I moved to Virginia Beach in 2019, and I purposefully bought in this area because it was residential and not full of investor real estate. I drove from Sam Bridge to North Beach to look for locations and I liked this area and Old Beach. So what I wanna do as I can see my time's running out, but I wanna ask you all to truly consider a density cap. Sandy and I have talked a lot about it. I think a 5 to 10% density cap is a very reasonable thing for this Commission to think about. The other thing that I wanna remind all of you is that once a short term rental address is identified as short term rental, it is a short term rental at that address. It can change owners multiple times and it remains a short term rental and so I just wanna make sure that you think about that as you make your decisions. I respectfully request you take my feedback into consideration and I thank you in advance for your time. Mr. Alcaraz: Hold on. Any questions? None. Okay. Next speaker. Thank you. Madam Clerk: That's all the speakers for this item. Mr. Alcaraz: That is. All right, sir if you can come up front, can you address any concerns that you just heard for us please? Mr. Luliano: Yep absolutely. I do appreciate the concerns, you know, brought on by Sandra and Sarah. I'm happy to give you my phone number and stay in constant communication, you know, I'm speaking on behalf of myself and Jamie George, who's next up on the agenda. We're the property owners at 505 and 507 20 and a 1/2 Street. We've been neighbors for almost six years and we're the original owners of the current property construction in 2017. We still live there and plan to remain property owners for their foreseeable future. These houses will always hold a special place in our hearts as we both started and have begun to raise our families there. We love the community as you do walks to the farmer's market, local businesses, the boardwalk, et cetera. But we are both looking to begin our next chapter as our families grow, we are looking to relocate within Virginia Beach, and when we do, we feel that operating our properties is short term rentals, it's what's best for our family's futures. But we still plan to stay active within our local vibe district community as property owners. As shown on the agenda, the surrounding area has dozens of short-term rentals operating with a conditional use permit, and likely many more to come with the construction now underway at Atlantic Park. The properties are within the Oceanfront Resort, short term Overlay District and also many other properties on our street and near us, operate as longer term rentals with 6 to 12 month leases. We plan to contract with Sojourn Property Management to manage our properties and rental contracts, Nicole Pace; the Chief Operating Officer of Sojourn is in attendance today. They market themselves as high end rentals and thus we plan to charge premium. This alone will help dictate our clientele as it sounds like that's a bit of a concern. In all perspective, renters will go through a fraud and background check, and we have the ability to approve or deny renters. Our preferences are rent to traveling families and traveling professionals. After all, tourism is a key economic driver in Virginia Beach. We do not intend to be any sort of detriment to the community. We plan to invest in it and help it continue to thrive, you know, and to directly address some of those concerns, you know, we do have our own parking here. I can understand higher up on more West on 20 and a 1/2 Street, where some of those houses are compact and its shared parking where that can be difficult. But we have clearly defined parking spaces and we'll have clearly defined parking spaces for each of our units, two off street parking spaces per unit and we've also contracted with a local business to have a third off street parking space in order to meet the city requirement of three off street parking spaces per bedroom. You know, we haven't had an issue living on the property for almost six years. understand it can get tight on the street sometimes, but you know, we do have that off street parking available again, I am happy to provide our number to our neighbors. We want to be neighborly throughout this process and we are gonna continue to be involved property owners and keep up with the property and all that. Thank you. Mr. Alcaraz: Hold on, any questions? Ms. Cuellar: I have a question. Mr. Alcaraz: Sure, Ms. Cuellar. Ms. Cuellar: You had mentioned in your comments that you have a property manager who's gonna be managing the short term rental. Mr. Luliano: Yes. Ms. Cuellar: And have you had the opportunity, do they have a plan in place, if you will? Should there be a complaint for the property? Mr. Luliano: Yeah, can I invite her up to speak? Mr. Alcaraz: Oh, that's up to Ms. Cuellar. Ms. Cuellar: Sure. Ms. Pace: Hi, Nicole Pace. I'm from Sojourn. We are a local real estate brokerage and property management company. We started in DC in 2019 and moved down, opened in Virginia in 2020, opened our brokerage in 2022 in Virginia Beach. We manage about 300 properties from New Jersey to North Carolina. We're very, very experienced property managers. We hire local on the ground hospitality managers. We have lots of great rapport in Norfolk with our neighbors and there,we have our signs up with our phone numbers on them, so would not be opposed to that being one of the plans, but we do make sure that everybody in the neighborhood knows to call us. We have somebody that can respond in every neighborhood that we operate in within 20 minutes. We also contract with a local security company. So if we were to have any problems, we understand that the police can't do anything but the property manager can come and revoke a stay because once you give the property at short term rental license, these people are transient and not residential. So we can come in, change the codes, we operate, all of our codes are remote controlled. So at any point we can revoke access and in this area, I don't know if I've, anyone else in Virginia Beach is doing this, but I do know in Norfolk and North Carolina, we're the only company backed by Lloyds of London. So we have a third party security system like screening system that Nick brought up. So if you book with us on any platform, anywhere, the first thing you have to do is verify your identity. Your identity has to match your credit card. Your credit card has to match the reservation. It's big circle. No codes are released. No addresses are released. Nothing is released until we make sure that all of those pieces come together and because of that, we have almost no problems at all in six states. So yeah, we went through the COVID and the crazy of all the renters and we take a lot of pride in operating legal, safe, short term rentals that cater to professionals and families. Ms. Cuellar: Thank you very much. Mr. Alcaraz: So, hold on, let me ask you,just a scenario. I'm just curious. So let's say it happens, I just wanna know, what happens if there's a hundred people in the house? What do you do? Ms. Pace: Well,we would call our security company and then we would revoke access, right? We would go in, we'd start clearing it out. I'm not saying it would be a perfect scenario, right? We would hope to partner with local law enforcement to help us. But I think the difference is if the property owner or the property manager is there with the police and says like, this is trespassing. These people are not allowed to be on this property. The codes are revoked, everybody's got to go. But I will tell you like we have noise monitors and cameras in every single unit. I also don't wanna get up at one o'clock in the morning to clear 100 people out. But I personally, own the company and I personally monitor what's going on in this region at night. So once those noise monitors start going off and those cameras like pick up too much, like front door opening and closing too often, we're already on it. We're there when the first 12 people get there right. We're not showing up two hours later when the cars are lined up down the street and the situation is completely out of control. Mr. Alcaraz: Sure. Is there a fine? Ms. Pace: We do put a $500 fine for like smoking and noise in our thing. It's not always enforceable on all the platforms, but it's very much. Mr. Alcaraz: I know it's different for every manager. Ms. Pace: Yeah, but the thing is with Super Hog, which is our identity program, that's the Lloyds of London program, you're forced to buy a damage waiver and you're forced to put your credit card on file. So once you do that, you're much less likely to go in and destroy someone's home because you now are like legally responsible. Where if you book on AirBnb, you could just show up and AirBnb covers you like they have an insurance policy. But with us, we don't care what platform you're booked on, you have to buy this insurance policy and that you have to sign something saying like, you're not going to intentionally cause any damage, right. We understand if like an accident happens, but so it really is like probably the best to turn out there. Mr. Alcaraz: All right, thank you. Ms. Pace: You're welcome. Mr. Alcaraz: Any questions? I have one for the owner. The parking space, the way it's shown, is there actually eight parking spaces there? Mr. Luliano: Yes. The entire property is four units. So there are two that face 20 and a 1/2 street as you see there and then there's two other units that are gonna continue to operate as private residences that face 20th Street. They both as we are technically a condominium, they both signed off on our application for the conditional use permit, so there is eight spaces and it's two off street parking spaces per unit, which was the city requirement when the property was built. Mr. Alcaraz: Understand, now I understand, okay. So the parking for the front units are in the back too, okay. That's all I had. Any other questions? All right, thank you. Mr. Luliano: Thank you. Mr. Alcaraz: We'll go into discussion if there is any, anybody. I'll start, if you guys wanna jump in. I know this is in the OR district. The OR district has that element of rental properties. I know one of the speakers stated that she looked and I guess did her due diligence and seeing if she wanted live there, but. I drove around there too, and I know the area and there's like one story duplexes all in that area. So there is a rental identity in there, and I guess it's just, it's improving and I see this, I think there was a duplex where this four-plex was right, and now they're in a OR district, however I hear, I hear the residents and it all comes down to management. Then that's where, sorry to say that we need help from the planning department's staffing, so I know we're understaff and these odd hours where these things are happening. It's a control issue that we can't get to. It puts us in a bad situation because we have to sit here and vote yes or no. It's an OR district, but then these other units that are illegal or poor management are the ones that are making it hard for us to vote. So that's my comment. I'm kind of, I need to hear from you guys. See where you guys want to go on this. Mr. Horsley: I don't think I can help you or not any, but I'm, you know, I'm very sympathetic to the lady that spoke earlier, but like I say, it's in the OR district and I guess it's, you know, we can make all the rules in the world, but it's really hard to enforce a lot of them, if the police can't get it done, you know, it's a bad situation. So it was interesting to hear from the management, the young lady that spoke that manages property, it seems like they've got their act together and maybe, but I think staff has heard what the lady spoke about. I think they're going to try to do something to rectify those situations with the police department and whatever and, because that's planning staff, they're not policemen, I mean, but they do the best they can. Like I say, we could use a few more when we can get that approved, but, so I don't know whether that I'm in favor of the application. I guess it's in the right district for it, and George lives down that way and he says it's in the rental district. So I guess that's kind of what that property is but, I do have the sympathy for the people who live there that are full-time residents. This is one of the things, back when we first started talking about short term rentals years ago; I said that to get into communities where people live. But we tried to rectify that by establishing the OR districts and just happened to end up being in one. So I guess deep down, you know, never been a big fan of short term rentals, but, you know, I have to abide by the ordinance and according to what ordinance is, I guess this one should fit into this area. So, I don't know if that helped too much tonight, George, but that's kind of way I feel, I guess I would have to support it. Mr. Alcaraz: All right, Mr. Coston, go ahead. Mr. Coston: I think I saw staff taking an address down, the one that y'all mentioned that was operating illegally. So that's going to be addressed and like they said, it's in the OR district and I don't even know if we're going to have say so in the future, but I'd move that we. Mr. Alcaraz: Thank you, Mr. Coston, Ms. Cuellar. Ms. Cuellar: Thank you Mr. Chairman. I think there's a lot of risk involved when it comes to short term rental, both from the property owner and for the renter and was reassured today looking at the applicant, hearing from the applicant and the steps that he's taking to be the best neighbor possible when it comes to a short term rental. So I wanna thank the management company for providing that as I were living down on 20th and 1/2 Street. I would be reassured by that. I'm also very empathetic to the residents who are here today, but given the diversity in housing that it offers to our city, I would be grateful to for the planning commission to give, do the best that we're able to when it comes to the complaints and the management. I know it is difficult, but as we continue this dialogue to be the best neighbors that we could be to each other, I just wanna thank the applicant and the management company, so I will support this application. Mr. Alcaraz: Okay. Anybody else? Mr. Clemons. Mr. Clemons:Yes. Thank you Mr. Chairman. I just have a couple of comments. I'm very empathetic to the neighbor's situation. I would point out that I think this is a great opportunity to try to build improved relationship and responses with the police department in that particular area and perhaps with respect to all short term rental communities, there's gotta be some way forward in terms of, you know, maintaining, you know, peaceful living environment for the people who live here, as well as allowing those who do come to visit our city to be able to enjoy it. Thank you very much. Mr. Alcaraz: All right. Thank you. Well, I think Mr. Horsley you said, what I was thinking is, and I really appreciate the presentation with the management because it all comes down to management that's what it's all about and I'd really like if maybe planning department can get either a resume or something when they do the application on who that management firm is to help us and not just a, sorry to say because I've heard some of 'em have been the house cleaners over there and are they responsive or, you know, if they're a distant owner who they have to represent 'em over there. But I think that's our number one problem is management that they need to be responsive. appreciate the plan you gave us and, I'm gonna support it if someone can make a motion. Mr. Horsley: I make a motion. We approve the application based on the facts that were provided by the applicant and his management company. Mr. Alcaraz: All right. I got a motion from Mr. Horsley. Ms. Cuellar: Second. Mr. Alcaraz: Second by Ms. Cuellar. Madam Clerk: The vote is open. By a vote of eight to zero, the item has been recommended for approval.

Thank you. Next and I guess last item. Madam Clerk: Agenda item number 13, Jamie George is an application for a conditional use permit, a short term rental at 507 20th and 1/2 Street in Council district six. Mr. Alcaraz: State your name please. Ms. George: Jamie George. Mr. Alcaraz: And state your application. Ms. George: Excuse me. Mr. Alcaraz: You can go ahead and state your application or any information you need us to know. Ms. George: Oh yeah. I mean, so I'm just sort of in the same boat as Nick, as he said. We live right next door to each other. So I'm the property at 507 and I do, mean, I completely understand the resident's concern, you know, we live there and deal with the same traffic and all the same things. But I mean, just wanna reassure them that, I mean, we're doing this, as he said to sort of transition out of this area to raise our children in more of like a neighborhood with a larger yard, but possibly with the hopes of returning to these homes. So, I mean, I think that's why we invested in Nicole and Sojourn to manage these properties for us because, you know, we don't want to burn bridges and we want them to be managed and run efficiently just for, you know, the extent of our property and possibly going back. Mr. Alcaraz: So do you live there now? Ms. George: I do. Mr. Alcaraz: So do you know the people that came forward and had concerns? Ms. George: I mean, I recognized them sort of just from the street, but don't know them personally. No. Mr. Alcaraz: All right. I just knew if you, okay. Ms. George: Yes. Mr. Alcaraz: Any questions for her? None. Yes. Ms. Byler: I was impressed that Mr. Luliano your next door neighbor offered his cell number to the neighbors and said that he would personally stand behind all of the residents and I wondered if you shared his feeling. Ms. George: Of course, 1000%. I mean, as I said, there may be a time when in years to come once my daughter is older, that I'd like to return to this property. mean, I love the neighborhood. I love the house so I mean, I want to be there to be neighborly and make things as easy for everyone that lives there permanently. Ms. Byler: Okay. Thank you. Ms. George: I definitely would share that. Mr. Alcaraz: All right. Thank you. All right. Next speaker. Madam Clerk: We have the same speaker Sandy Dietrich, followed by Sarah Welch if they have any more comments, I suppose. Mr. Alcaraz: Would you like to come forward and is there anything that you wanna bring up that you might wanna say? No. You're more than welcome, miss your chance. Ms. Dietrich: I love this for a minute. Mr. Alcaraz: I know. Ms. Dietrich: Sorry. Mr. Alcaraz: We're sorry too. Ms. Dietrich: I appreciate the comments of providing phone numbers and contact information. I'll say that the other owners have said they would do that and one has done that, so I just wanna make sure that this commission knows that a lot of times, the owners will say they'll do that and then they don't. So I just wanna make sure that people understood that. Mr. Alcaraz: Sure. I think staff took that down and I'm sure they'll take the address on the one that was done being done illegally. Ms. Dietrich: And the only other comment I wanna make on the one that's not, that's being done illegally is I'm in constant contact with Ms. Channing Tatum or Channing Tuttle and she gets probably photographs from me at least on a weekly basis of the renters in the house illegally. Mr. Alcaraz: Are you getting a response? Ms. Dietrich: Well, I continuously hear that and I believe it's the truth. I'm not denigrating by any means, but they say it takes a lot to build a case to remove someone from doing something illegally and if it's that hard to build a case from someone who's doing it illegally, I can't imagine what it would be like to try to revoke one and when I contacted about what the process was for revocation, no one could explain that process to me because they've never done it, so just wanted to share that. Mr. Alcaraz: Thank you. Ms. Dietrich: Thank you. Mr. Alcaraz: Okay. Would you like to come forward and say anything, or are you okay? Okay. All right. So we're closed, guys open for discussion or I'll entertain a motion. Anybody? Ms. Cuellar: I'm gonna hope that with the management of these two rentals that this would be a best practice in moving forward in the short term rental area. So I'm gonna support the application. Mr. Alcaraz: All right. We got a motion from Ms. Cuellar? Do I have a second? Mr. Horsley: Second. Mr. Alcaraz: Second by Mr. Horsley. Madam Clerk: The vote is open. By a vote of eight to zero, this item has been recommended for approval.
