CITY OF VIRGINIA BEACH
AGENDA ITEM
ITEM: An Ordinance to Amend City Code Section 21-230 Pertaining to Traffic Calming
MEETING DATE: April 16, 2024
■ Background: In 2001, the City Council enacted a traffic calming program to deter
speeding on specifically designated residential streets. Unlike a routine speeding citation,
a citation for speeding on one of the designated streets is punishable by a fine of $200.
■ Considerations: The Traffic Calming Program has several phases. Phase I
consists of awareness and education, and generally takes place during discussions
between Traffic Engineering and the neighborhood representative. In this phase, the
neighborhood residents identify the streets they want evaluated for inclusion in the
program. Phase II involves speed studies of the identified streets. If the studies show an
85-percentile speed of at least 33 mph or, an average speed of at least 29 mph in a
posted 25 mph speed zone, then the Police Department will conduct a series of selective
enforcement initiatives, followed by traffic studies at the end of each enforcement cycle.
Should speeding persist or increase, the streets will be eligible to enter Phase III of the
program if at least 75% of the affected neighborhood residents in the identified area sign
a petition requesting the implementation of Phase III. Phase III of the program involves
posting of Council-designated streets with signs warning drivers that speeding in this area
could result in a $200 fine.
The following street has qualified for inclusion in the Traffic Calming Program and
will be added to the program upon adoption of this ordinance:
• Pinewood Road between the Little Neck Creek Culvert to Holladay Point.
■ Public Information: This ordinance will be advertised in the same manner as
other Council agenda items.
■ Attachments: Ordinance and maps.

CITY OF VIRGINIA BEACH
AGENDA ITEM
ITEM: Resolution Approving the 2024 Plan of Financing with the City of Virginia Beach
Development Authority not to Exceed $168.5 Million, Approving Certain
Documents Prepared in Connection with Such Financing and Authorizing the
Execution and Delivery of the Same
MEETING DATE: April 16, 2024
■ Background: The City Council through the Capital Improvement Program (CIP)
previously authorized the financing of various public facilities with the utilization of Public
Facility Revenue Bonds(PFRB)through the City of Virginia Beach Development Authority
(VBDA). On twelve occasions—2002, 2003, 2005, 2007, 2010, 2012, 2013, 2014, 2015,
2016, 2018, and 2020—the VBDA has issued bonds for projects such as the Convention
Center, the Sandler Center, Town Center Garages, Aquarium Parking, the Virginia Beach
Sports Center, and various other City and Schools capital projects. This request includes
both "new-money" (including a taxable bond series and a tax-exempt bond series) and a
current refunding. Following IRS regulations, the "new-money" bond proceeds will
reimburse previous expenditures for City and Schools authorized projects in the CIP and
may include future expenditures for City and Schools capital projects in the CIP under
construction for which the City Council previously appropriated funding. The eleven new-
money projects totaling $166 million are listed in Exhibit B of the Draft Eleventh
Supplemental Support Agreement, an attachment to this Item. These amounts are
subject to change but will not exceed $168.5 million.
In addition to the "new-money" sale, the Department of Finance and the City's financial
advisor recommend that the City issue refunding bonds. The current interest rate
environment allows the possibility of refunding portions of the tax exempt 2012A, 2013A,
and 2014A PFRBs totaling $38.1 million and issuing refunding bonds at a significant debt
service savings; the minimum threshold is 3.0% for savings on interest payments. The
exact amount and coupons of the issue to be refunded will be determined at a time closer
to the sale date.
■ Considerations: The VBDA will be asked to approve a resolution authorizing the
issuance and sale of this debt upon the Council's approval of the attached resolution. As
with the previous series, the 2024 series will be issued under the Master Agreement of
Trust with a Twelfth Supplemental Agreement. Under the plan of financing, an Eleventh
Supplemental Support Agreement between VBDA and the City will outline the City's
annual payments to VBDA in amounts sufficient to pay the debt service on the bonds.
The new-money bonds and refunding bonds will be sold electronically by competitive bid,
with the actions of the City Manager being conclusive; provided, the 2024 Series Bonds
shall have a true interest cost not to exceed 5.0% for the tax-exempt bonds and 7.0% for
the taxable bonds with respect to the new money bonds and 5.0% with respect to the tax-
exempt refunding bonds. The final terms of the bond sale will be reported to the City
Council shortly after pricing.
■ Public Information: Normal Council agenda process. This transaction was
briefed to the City Council at its March 26 Workshop Session.
■ Recommendation: Adopt the attached resolution.
■ Attachments: Resolution; Draft of Twelfth Supplemental Trust Agreement; and
Draft of Eleventh Supplemental Support Agreement with Project List
Recommended Action: Approval

basis under the Code, and the City complies with such alternative basis.

AGENDA ITEM
ITEM: Resolution of the City of Virginia Beach, Virginia, Providing for the Issuance and
Sale of General Obligation Public Improvement Bonds in the Maximum Amount
of $276,000,000 to Fund Heretofore Authorized Public Improvements, and
Providing for the Form, Details and Payment Thereof
MEETING DATE: April 16, 2024
■Background: Based on a review of capital project expenditures, the Department of
Finance has begun preparations for a general obligation "new-money" bond sale in the
maximum principal of $276,000,000. The bond sale is composed of the remaining
balance of the 2018 and 2019 and a portion of the 2020 and 2021 Charter Bond
Authorizations previously approved by the City Council on May 15, 2018, May 14, 2019,
May 12, 2020, and November 16, 2021, respectively. The bond proceeds from the
proposed sale will reimburse previous expenditures for the City, including Flood
Protection Program referendum projects, and Schools capital projects and will fund
future expenditures on some City, Schools, and Flood Protection Program projects. A
preliminary project list totaling $276,000,000 is attached and is subject to change.
Based on current market conditions, the City's financial advisor has recommended that
this sale take place on May 14, 2024.
In addition to the "new-money" sale, the Department of Finance and the City's financial
advisor recommend that the City include a "current refunding" sale to refund bonds to
reduce future debt service. The current interest rate environment allows the possibility
of refunding the remaining portions of the 2013A and 2014A GO totaling $54.4 million
and issue refunding bonds at a significant debt service savings; the minimum threshold
is 3.0% for savings on interest payments. The exact amount and coupons of the issue
to be refunded will be determined at a time closer to the sale date.
■Considerations: The "new-money" sale represents the City's periodic general
obligation bond sale. The City's bond counsel, Kutak Rock LLP, has prepared the
enclosed resolution authorizing the issuance and sale of the bonds. The bonds will be
sold electronically by competitive bid, with the actions of the City Manager being
conclusive; provided, the 2024 Series Bonds shall have a true interest cost not to
exceed 5.0% with respect to the "new-money" bonds and 5.0% with respect to the
refunding bonds. The final terms of the bond sale will be reported to the City Council
shortly after pricing.
■ Public Information: Normal agenda process. The transaction was briefed to the
City Council at its March 26 Workshop Session.
■ Recommendation: Adopt the attached resolution.

to a book-entry system to be maintained by DTC with respect to the Bonds. "Securities
Depository" shall mean DTC or any other securities depository for the Bonds appointed pursuant
to this Section 2.
In the event that (a) the Securities Depository determines not to continue to act as the
securities depository for the Bonds by giving notice to the Registrar, and the City discharges its
responsibilities hereunder, or (b) the City, in its sole discretion, determines (i) that beneficial
owners of Bonds shall be able to obtain certificated Bonds or (ii) to select a new Securities
Depository, then the City's Director of Finance shall, at the direction of the City Manager,
3
attempt to locate another qualified securities depository to serve as Securities Depository and

Depository participants on behalf of beneficial owners substantially in the form provided for in

(A) from the date of the Bonds if they are authenticated prior to the first interest payment date, or
(B) from the interest payment date that is or immediately precedes the date on which the Bonds
are authenticated (unless payment of interest thereon is in default, in which case interest on such
Bonds shall be payable from the date to which interest has been paid). In delivering certificated
Bonds, the City's Director of Finance shall be entitled to rely on the records of the Securities
Depository as to the beneficial owners or the records of the Securities Depository participants

So long as there is a Securities Depository for the Bonds, (1) it or its nominee shall be the
registered owner of the Bonds, (2) notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Resolution,
determinations of persons entitled to payment of principal, premium, if any, and interest,
transfers of ownership and exchanges, and receipt of notices shall be the responsibility of the
Securities Depository and shall be effected pursuant to rules and procedures established by such
Securities Depository, (3) the Registrar and the City shall not be responsible or liable for
maintaining, supervising or reviewing the records maintained by the Securities Depository, its
participants or persons acting through such participants, (4)references in this Resolution to
registered owners of the Bonds shall mean such Securities Depository or its nominee and shall
not mean the beneficial owners of the Bonds, and (5) in the event of any inconsistency between
the provisions of this Resolution and the provisions of the above-referenced Blanket Issuer Letter
of Representations, such provisions of the Blanket Issuer Letter of Representations, except to the
extent set forth in this paragraph and the next preceding paragraph, shall control.
3. Refunding Provisions
The City Manager is authorized and directed to select the principal maturities of the Prior
Bonds or portions of such maturities to be refunded and to cause to be called for optional
redemption any such maturity or portion thereof to be redeemed prior to its stated maturity in
accordance with the provisions of such bonds; provided such maturities or portions thereof
selected are expected in the aggregate to provide a minimum savings of 3.00% on a net present
value basis as determined by the Financial Advisor. In connection with the refunding herein
authorized, the City Manager, if determined necessary or appropriate in consultation with the
Financial Advisor, is authorized to retain the services of independent consultants to provide
verification reports (the "Verification Agent") on aspects of the refunding and is further
authorized to retain the services of one or more escrow agents (the "Escrow Agent") and to enter
into escrow agreements with them to the extent needed to hold and provide for investment of all
or portions of the proceeds of the Refunding Bonds and other funds as needed pending their
application to refund the Prior Bonds or portions thereof selected to be refunded.
4. Redemption Provisions.
4
(a) Optional Redemption. The Bonds shall be subject to redemption prior to maturity
at the option of the City Manager, in whole or in part, at any time on and after dates, if any,
determined by the City Manager, with the first such optional redemption date beginning no later
than February 1, 2035 as set forth in Section 2 at a redemption price equal to the principal
amount to be redeemed, together with any interest accrued to the date fixed for redemption, plus
a redemption premium, if any, not to exceed 2% of the principal amount to be redeemed, such
redemption premium to be determined by the City Manager in consultation with the Financial
Advisor.
(b) Mandatory Sinking Fund Redemption. Any term bonds may be subject to
mandatory sinking fund redemption upon terms determined by the City Manager.
If so determined by the City Manager, the Bonds may provide that the City may take a
credit against the mandatory sinking fund redemption obligation of any maturity of term Bonds
in the amount of Bonds of the same maturity that have been optionally redeemed or surrendered
for cancellation and have not been applied previously as such a credit. If the City wishes to take
such a credit, on or before the 70t' day next preceding any such mandatory sinking fund
redemption date, the City's Director of Finance may instruct the Registrar to apply a credit
against the City's mandatory sinking fund redemption obligation for any Bonds of the applicable
maturity that have been optionally redeemed or surrendered for cancellation by the City and have
not been previously applied as a credit against any mandatory sinking fund redemption
obligation for that maturity of the Bonds. Each Bond so previously optionally redeemed or
surrendered shall be credited at 100% of the principal amount thereof against the principal
amount of such maturity of the Bonds required to be redeemed on such mandatory sinking fund
redemption date or dates for such maturity as may be selected by the Director of Finance.
(c) Selection of Bonds for Redemption. If less than all of the Bonds are called for
optional redemption, the maturities of the Bonds to be redeemed shall be selected by the City's
Director of Finance in such manner as may be determined to be in the best interest of the City. If
less than all of a particular maturity of the Bonds are called for redemption, the Bonds within
such maturity to be redeemed shall be selected by the Securities Depository pursuant to its rules
and procedures or, if the book-entry system is discontinued, shall be selected by the Registrar by
lot in such manner as the Registrar in its discretion may determine. In either case, (a) the portion
of any Bond to be redeemed shall be in the principal amount of$5,000 or some integral multiple
thereof and (b) in selecting Bonds for redemption, each Bond shall be considered as representing
that number of Bonds that is obtained by dividing the principal amount of such Bond by $5,000.
(d) Redemption Notices. The City shall cause notice of the call for redemption
identifying the Bonds or portions thereof to be redeemed to be sent by electronic transmission,
facsimile transmission, registered or certified mail or overnight express delivery, not less than 30
nor more than 60 days prior to the redemption date, to the registered owner of the Bonds. The
City shall not be responsible for providing notice of redemption to anyone other than DTC or
another qualified Securities Depository or its nominee unless no qualified Securities Depository
is the registered owner of the Bonds. If no qualified Securities Depository is the registered owner
of the Bonds, notice of redemption shall be provided to the registered owners of the Bonds. If a
portion of a Bond is called for redemption, a new Bond in principal amount equal to the
unredeemed portion thereof will be issued to the registered owner upon the surrender thereof.
5
5. Execution and Authentication. The Bonds shall be signed by the manual or
facsimile signature of the Mayor or Vice-Mayor, shall be countersigned by the manual or
facsimile signature of the City Clerk or Deputy Clerk, and the City's seal shall be affixed thereto
or a facsimile thereof printed thereon;provided, that if both of such signatures are facsimiles, no
Bond shall be valid until it has been authenticated by the manual signature of the City Treasurer,
as Registrar, or an authorized officer or employee of any bank or trust company serving as
successor Registrar and the date of authentication noted thereon.
6. Bond Form. The Bonds shall be in substantially the form attached to this
Resolution as Exhibit A, with such completions, omissions, insertions and changes not
inconsistent with this Resolution as may be approved by the officers signing the Bonds, whose
approval shall be evidenced conclusively by the execution and delivery of the Bonds.
7. Pledge of Full Faith and Credit. The full faith and credit of the City are
irrevocably pledged for the payment of the principal of, premium, if any, and interest on the
Bonds. Unless other funds are lawfully available and appropriated for timely payment of the
Bonds, the City Council shall levy and collect an annual ad valorem tax, over and above all other
taxes authorized or limited by law and without limitation as to rate or amount, on all locally
taxable property in the City sufficient to pay when due the principal of, premium, if any, and
interest on the Bonds.
8. Registration, Transfer and Owners of Bonds. The City Treasurer is appointed
paying agent and registrar for the Bonds (the "Registrar"). The City may appoint a qualified bank
or trust company as successor paying agent and registrar of the Bonds. The Registrar shall
maintain registration books for the registration and registration of transfers of the Bonds. Upon
presentation and surrender of any Bonds at the office of the Registrar, or at its designated
corporate trust office if the Registrar is a bank or trust company, together with an assignment
duly executed by the registered owner or his duly authorized attorney or legal representative in
such form as shall be satisfactory to the Registrar, the City shall execute, and the Registrar shall
authenticate, if required by Section 5, and shall deliver in exchange, a new Bond or Bonds
having an equal aggregate principal amount, in authorized denominations, of the same form and
maturity, bearing interest at the same rate and registered in the name as requested by the then
registered owner thereof or its duly authorized attorney or legal representative. Any such transfer
or exchange shall be at the expense of the City, except that the Registrar may charge the person
requesting such transfer or exchange the amount of any tax or other governmental charge
required to be paid with respect thereto.
The Registrar shall treat the registered owner as the person or entity exclusively entitled
to payment of principal, premium, if any, and interest and the exercise of all other rights and
powers of the owner, except that interest payments shall be made to the person or entity shown

City at any time to rebate to the United States any part of the earnings derived from the

such proceeds being used in a trade or business carried on by any person other than a
governmental unit, as provided in Section 141(b) of the Code, (b) 5% or more of such proceeds
or the facilities being financed with such proceeds being used with respect to any output facility
(other than a facility for the furnishing of water), within the meaning of Section 141(b)(4) of the
Code, or (c) 5% or more of such proceeds being used directly or indirectly to make or finance
loans to any person other than a governmental unit, as provided in Section 141(c) of the Code;
provided, that if the City receives an opinion of nationally recognized bond counsel that any
such covenants need not be complied with to prevent the interest on the Bonds from being
includable in the gross income for federal income tax purposes of the registered owners thereof
under existing law, the City need not comply with such covenants.
17. Post-Issuance Compliance. The Post Issuance Compliance Procedures
established as directed by resolution of the City Council adopted on March 13, 2012 and as
amended from time to time will apply to the Bonds to ensure that the proceeds of the Bonds and
the projects financed with such proceeds are used in compliance with the provisions of federal
tax law applicable to tax-exempt governmental obligations.

officer or officers of the City as either may designate are hereby authorized and directed to
execute and deliver a continuing disclosure agreement setting forth the reports and notices to be
filed by the City and containing such covenants as may be necessary to assist the purchaser of
the Bonds in complying with the provisions of Rule 15c2-12. Such continuing disclosure

obligations issued and to be issued by the City to which such Rule applies.

designee is authorized to transfer funds to the City of Virginia Beach Public Schools for projects

purpose is hereby ratified, confirmed and shall be reimbursed from proceeds of the Bonds. The

Finance to direct the City Treasurer to utilize the State Non-Arbitrage Program of the
Commonwealth of Virginia ("SNAP") in connection with the investment of certain of the
proceeds of the Bonds, if the City Manager and the Director of Finance determine that the

Federally Required Plans for the Housing Choice Voucher Program
The Department of Housing&Neighborhood Preservation (DHNP)operates the federal
Housing Choice Voucher Program (HCV) in the city. The program provides funding for
rental subsidies for over 2,000 households in Virginia Beach and in some cases in
neighboring cities. Funding for the HCV program is from the U.S. Department of
Housing and Urban Development. In order to comply with all Federal requirements for
this program, the city must establish policy and procedures to ensure consistency in
program operation and adopt the following plans:

Pursuant to 24 CFR 982.54 the VBDHNP must adopt a written administrative plan that
establishes local policies for administration of the (HCV)program in accordance with
HUD requirements. The administration plan and any revisions of the plan must be
formally adopted by the City Council. This is required because Virginia Beach does not
have a housing authority and,therefore no board of commissioners. The administrative
plan states VBDHNP's policy on matters for which the VBDHNP has discretion to
establish local policies. The plan must be in accordance with HUD regulations and
requirements. The current administrative plan was approved by the Virginia Beach City
Council on April 6, 2021, and subsequently submitted to the Department of Housing and
Urban Development. The administrative plan is a required attachment for the
agencies Five Year and Annual Agency Plans which are also submitted by the
VBDHNP.

Executive Summary
2024 Housing Choice Voucher—Annual and Administrative Plans
Department of Housing and Neighborhood Preservation
March 28, 2024
• Any plan elements that have been revised since the last Annual Plan certification
• A listing of the locations where key elements of the Plan can be found
As mentioned, many of the above requirements are contained in documents that are
maintained in the offices of DHNP. Those documents and their location can merely be
cited rather than included in this plan.
In addition to City Council adoption of the 2024 Agency Plan (HUD Form 50077-ST),
there must also be approval of two other HUD required certifications. A copy of those
certifications is attached to this executive summary. The first certification is HUD Form
50077-ST-HCV-HP which speaks to DHNP's compliance with various program and
statutory requirements including Fair Housing, Title VI, or the Civil Rights Act of 1964,
Section 504 of the Rehabilitation Act, ADA regulations and various other federal laws.
The second certification is HUD Form 50077-SL which states that the Housing Choice
Voucher Agency Plan is consistent with the City's Consolidated Plan and is previously
cited.
On February 23, 2024,the Annual Plan Update was made available to the public for the
required 45-day review period. A public meeting was held on April 8, 2024, in
conjunction with our resident advisory board meeting. Their comments will be attached
to the final HUD submission along with any that are received from the general public.
The approved Annual Agency Plan along with the two required certifications must be
electronically submitted to HUD no later than April 17, 2024,which is the required 75
days before the beginning of our Fiscal Year of July 1, 2024.
Administrative Plan:
Staff has developed revisions to the 2024 plan. Due to the Housing Opportunity Through
Modernization Act of 2016, signed into law, July 29, 2016, the Department of Housing&
Urban Development(HUD)has mandated implementation of all aspects of the law that
impacts the Housing Choice Voucher program by December 31, 2024. As the result of
this requirement there are a number of significant changes, along with the routine
changes that happen from year to year to the submitted Administrative Plan. Primary
differences between the prior plan and this proposed revision are as follows:
• Establishing a ceiling of 2500 applicants when the waiting list is opened.
• Removing the families with children preference from the waiting list. Modifying
the working and residency preference which removed the one-year requirement
and adding a mainstream preference to support additional funding/vouchers for a
targeted population (non-elderly and disabled needing supportive services).

Executive Summary
2024 Housing Choice Voucher—Annual and Administrative Plans
Department of Housing and Neighborhood Preservation
March 28, 2024
• Change in the occupancy standards: Establishing that a married/cohabitating
couple or single head of household will be granted 1 bedroom, and then every 2
people listed in the family being granted a bedroom to determine voucher size.
• HOTMA will remove the statutory authority for the Earned Income Disallowance
effective January 1, 2024. All current participants that utilize the EID, will still
be eligible for their 24-month period, but will not be utilized for any new
participant.
• The regulations under HOTMA distinguish between two categories of student
financial assistance paid which will now include both full-time and part-time
students.
• An increase in the amount of assets requiring documentation increased from
$5,000 to $50,000.
• The allowance for elderly or disabled families will increase from $400 to $525
per year and will be adjusted annually in accordance with the Consumer Price
Index for Urban Wage Earners and Clerical Workers, rounded to the next lowest
multiple of$25.
• The allowance for dependents will remain at $480 for this year but will be
adjusted annually in accordance with the Consumer Price Index for Urban Wage
Earners and Clerical Workers, rounded to the next lowest multiple of$25.
• Pending an approved process,the DHNP may make utility payments directly to
the utility company vs the participant.
• The HUD form 9886 (Release of Information)will not be required to be signed
annually by adult participants. The form will now only be required when first
admitted to the program, or an adult is added to the family or when minor
dependents turn 18.
• Documentation of income will only be accepted via third party sources and the
DHNP will not accept documentation from other assistance program's income
documentation (i.e. Human Services), for any new admission or interim
reexamination requests.
• Under HOTMA, if 90 percent or more of a family's unadjusted income is from
fixed sources,the DHNP will utilize the streamlined annual reexamination
process by applying the verified inflationary adjustment factor to fixed-income
sources (e.g., SS, SSI, Pension, VA Benefits).

March 28, 2024
• Under HOTMA,the DHNP will utilize The New Hires Report at each annual
reexamination for each participant.
• The DHNP will now obtain minimally a month's worth of paystubs when
processing the participant's annual reexamination.
• The DHNP will not conduct Remote Video Inspections for its Housing Quality
Standards (HQS) inspections, unless by Executive Order.
• The DHNP defines a lease term of one year to be from commencement to the end
of the 12th month or from commencement to the end of the 11 th month and gives
the choice to the owner and all leases must end on the last day of the month.
• The DHNP defines, "In Good Standing", with an owner to be as, "not in arrears
for past rent, not owing monies for damaging the property, nor excessive 5-day
notices, or 21-30 notices (more than 3 in a 12-month period). This status is
required in order to maintain continued assistance.
• The DHNP will not process an interim reexamination for an income increase if
the effective date is less than 90 days before the annual reexamination effective
date.
• The DHNP will not process an interim reexamination due to income loss if an
income source was utilized to determine a family's affordability prior to moving
to a new unit. The DHNP will not process a decrease until the next annual
reexamination. Examples would be a recurring gift from a non-family member or
non-custodial parent giving money to the Head of Household.
• If the Head of Household is absent from the unit for more than 30 days due to
incarceration, assistance will be terminated, unless another adult is present and
was part of the household prior to date of incarceration.
• If the family owes over$6,000 (due to fraud),the PHA will refer the case to the
Commonwealth's Attorney for possible criminal prosecution. If the family makes
a lump payment that reduces the amount owed to less than $6,000, the case will
not be referred to the Commonwealth's Attorney for possible criminal
prosecution.
• Project Based Voucher Request for Proposal: The D1 NP will not consider any
owner proposal outside the political jurisdiction of the City of Virginia Beach.
The D1 NP will not consider any owner proposal that includes adding additional
units to an already established project under an AHAP or HAP contract.

AGENDA ITEM
ITEM: A Resolution Authorizing and Directing the City Manager to Execute a Settlement
Agreement with the United States of America Under the Americans with Disabilities
Act
MEETING DATE: April 16, 2024
■ Background: In 1999, the Department of Justice (DOJ) began conducting audits
of public entities across the country regarding compliance with the Americans with
Disabilities Act (ADA). Among other things, the ADA provides for access by individuals
with disabilities to programs, activities and services of public entities and places that are
open to public. The DOJ began an audit of the City in 2018 which included a review of
documentation and site visits to eleven facilities. After the DOJ completed the audit, the
DOJ negotiated a voluntary settlement agreement with the City.
■ Considerations: City staff worked with the DOJ over a three-year period to
negotiate the voluntary settlement agreement. The agreement has a three-year term
during which the City will enhance citizen access to public services and facilities, including
curb cuts and buildings, Internet-based services such as the City's webpages, and
revisions to emergency operations plans.
■ Public Information: Public Information will be provided through the normal
Council Agenda process. Within two months of the agreement's execution, the model
DOJ Notice under the ADA will be published in The Virginian-Pilot, on the City's website,
and posted at the main entrance of City public facilities.

The Department of Justice (DOJ) reviewed the City's compliance with Title II of the Americans with
Disabilities Act of 1990(ADA), 42 U.S.C. §§ 12131-12134("Title II"), and its implementing regulation, 28
C.F.R. Part 35. The DOJ reviewed compliance with the ADA's program access, new construction and

two months of the effective date of the Agreement to adopt the model Notice Under The ADA and
distribute it to all Department heads; publish the Notice in a local newspaper; post the Notice on the
City's website; and post the Notice in conspicuous locations at the main entrance to City buildings.
Within five months, the City will provide training to appropriate City staff, including but not limited to
engineers, planners, and facility staff, to ensure they are knowledgeable about the architectural
accessibility requirements of the ADA. Trained staff will gather information, including measurements
and photographs, of the corrections made to deficiencies identified by the audit of facilities during the
pendency of the agreement. Within six months of the effective date of the Agreement, the City will
retain an Independent Licensed Architect(ILA) who is knowledgeable about the architectural
accessibility requirements of the ADA.The ILA will perform a review of corrections and certify that
deficiencies have been corrected. The City will ensure that all appropriate employees are trained and
practiced in using the Virginia Relay Service to make and receive calls,and report to the DOJ the details
of the trainings and employees trained. The Agreement requires the City's Emergency Operations Plan
include specific DOJ model language.
With regard to sidewalks,the Agreement requires within six months of the effective date of this
Agreement,the City will implement and report to the DOJ its written process for requesting and
receiving input from people with disabilities regarding the accessibility of its sidewalks, including
requests to add curb ramps at particular locations. The City is required to have curb ramps at all
intersections of the streets, roads, and highways constructed or altered since January 26, 1992,that have
curbs or other barriers from a street level pedestrian walkway. The City is also required to continue to
provide curb ramps when streets, roads and highways are constructed or altered at any intersection
having curbs or other barriers to entry from a street level pedestrian walkway.
The City is also required to continue to make sure all new facilities or alterations to existing
facilities comply with the ADA. Within six months of the effective date of the Agreement,trained City
staff are required to survey all facilities and ensure there are accessible entrances and directional signage
at all inaccessible entrances to show the public where the accessible entrance is located. In addition,
trained City staff will survey all the City's facilities that were constructed after January 26, 1992 that the
DOJ did not survey for compliance. Within one year of the effective date, a list of all issues will be sent
to the DOJ with proposed corrective actions and completion dates. The corrections are required to be
completed within six months of the expiration of the Agreement.
The City must also adopt, implement, and post online a policy that its web content and mobile
apps will comply with the ADA and WCAG 2.1 Level AA.This policy must be distributed to all employees
who upload web content, and those employees must be trained on how to make sure web content
complies with the ADA. In addition,the Agreement requires that all existing web content and online
services be reviewed for compliance, and the City will provide reports to the DOJ on compliance with a
corrective action plan to address any deficiencies. The City is also required to enlist individuals with
different disabilities to test its pages for ease of use and accessibility barriers.
The Agreement further mandates that the City train all staff who work with citizens on the
requirements of the ADA. All training must be submitted to the DOJ for approval, and all trainings are to
be complete within a year. The initial trainings need to be live; and annual trainings thereafter can be
virtual.
The Agreement also allows for modifications if there is a change in circumstances,compliance is
impracticable or if a local, statewide or national emergency occurs. The modification would need to be
negotiated and agreed to by both parties.

AGENDA ITEM
ITEM: An Ordinance to authorize acquisition of 1.301+/- acres of property located at
2425 George Mason Drive from Enterprise Investors, L.L.C.
MEETING DATE: April 16, 2024
■ Background: Enterprise Investors, L.L.C., a Virginia limited liability company,
owns 2425 George Mason Drive (GPIN: 1494-71-8742), a freestanding three-story
office building located on property within the City of Virginia Beach Municipal Center
Campus (the "Property"). The Property contains approximately 14,212 Sq. Ft. of office
space and approximately 60 surface parking spaces on 1.301± acres of land. Although
privately owned, the Property was designated as Building 24 previously and formerly
housed the Virginia Beach Public Defenders' Office.
City staff toured the Property in March 2023 and determined it would be suitable for City
use as swing space to temporarily place City staff and services during renovations of
any Municipal Center buildings.
The purchase of the Property would be subject to four (4) existing leases totaling 3,317
sq. ft. of the office space. The leases generate approximately $5,916 per month
currently. The tenants are isolated in one wing of the building leaving the remaining
10,895 sq. ft. available for immediate City occupancy. Staff has determined that the
presence of the tenants does not impact the City's proposed use of the Property. The
City would assume the four (4) leases at Settlement with all rents being pro-rated
through closing.
■ Considerations: The total cost for the Property is $1,675,000 and the acquisition
can be funded from Strategic Site Acquisition and Disposition Project, CIP 100577.
Rental income until the leases expire would be deposited into the General Fund.
■ Public Information: Public notice via the normal City Council agenda process.
■ Alternatives: Deny the request to acquire the Property.
■ Recommendations: Approve the request subject to the terms and conditions of
the Summary of Terms.

AGENDA ITEM
ITEM: An Ordinance Extending the Date for Satisfying the Conditions in the Matter of
Closing a 15-Foot Portion of an Unimproved, Unnamed Alley Adjacent to 650 S.
Atlantic Avenue & Lot 22 in Block 20 of Croatan Beach
MEETING DATE: April 16, 2024
■ Background:
On April 18, 2023, by Ordinance ORD-3730F, City Council approved the request
by David C. and Meril B. Gerstenmaier (the "Applicants") to close approximately
750 sq. ft. of an unimproved, unnamed alley (the "Right-of-Way"), adjacent to the
rear of their property at 650 S. Atlantic Avenue.
■ Considerations:
There were four (4) conditions to the approval of the street closure:
1. The City Attorney's Office will make the final determination regarding ownership of the
underlying fee. The purchase price to be paid to the City shall be determined according
to the "Policy Regarding Purchase of City's Interest in Streets Pursuant to Street
Closures", approved by City Council. It has been determined that the purchase price
to be paid to the City shall be $6,000, which is consistent with similar street closures
in this area.
2. The Applicants, or the Applicants' successors or assigns, shall resubdivide the
properties and vacate internal lot lines to incorporate the closed area into the
adjoining parcels. The resubdivision plat must be submitted and approved for
recordation prior to the final street closure approval.
3. The Applicants shall verify that no private utilities exist within the Right-of-Way
proposed for closure. If private utilities do exist, easements satisfactory to the
utility company must be provided.
4. Closure of the Right-of-Way shall be contingent upon compliance with the
above-stated conditions within 365 days of approval by City Council. If the
conditions noted above are not accomplished and the final plat is not approved
for recordation within one (1) year of City Council approval, said approval shall
be considered null and void.
The Applicants' subdivision plat has been approved by the Planning Department,
however, it has not yet been signed on behalf of the mortgage company and will
not be ready to record prior to the deadline to meet the conditions. On March 26,

CITY OF VIRGINIA BEACH
AGENDA ITEM
ITEM: Resolution Approving an Extension of the Town Center Option Agreement and
Recommending that the City of Virginia Beach Development Authority Approve
the Extension.
MEETING DATE: April 16, 2024
• Background: The Town Center Project (the "Project') has been a long-term priority
for the City of Virginia Beach (the "City"). The City Council first recognized the importance
of the Project in the Central Business District of the City when it adopted the
Comprehensive Plan on November 4, 1997. Since February 8, 2000, City Council has
approved six phases of mixed-use development at Town Center. Phases I, II, III, V and
VI have been completed on ten blocks, and consist of office space, restaurants, retail
space, residential units, hotel rooms, a public plaza, pedestrian bridges, the Sandler
Center and the Zeiders American Dream Theater. Phase IV expired prior to
commencement of construction.
• Option Land: The majority of land necessary for the Project has been owned by the
City of Virginia Beach Development Authority (the "Authority") and sold to Town Center
Associates, L.L.C. (the "Developer") as each Phase of the Project began. The terms and
conditions by which the Authority will sell land to the Developer for the Project are set
forth in the Town Center of Virginia Beach Option Agreement between the Authority and
the Developer originally dated as of June 5, 2000 (the "Option Agreement').
As the Project has progressed through the phases, the Option Agreement has been
modified to reflect both the land subject to the Option Agreement and the date by which
the Developer must purchase that land. The Eleventh Modification to the Option
Agreement was approved on April 20, 2021. Block 2 (the former Beacon Building and
current surface parking lot) is the only remaining land subject to the Option Agreement.
• Option Terms: Under the current terms of the Option Agreement, the Developer has
until April 30, 2024 to exercise its option on Block 2. The Developer may only acquire
Block 2 if it has (i) paid $4,792,735 (the price the Authority paid to acquire Block 2 in
2009), (ii) paid a special fee equal to the imputed real estate taxes on Block 2, plus any
costs incurred by the Authority related to Block 2 (the "Special Fee"), and (iii) presented
a plan for development for Block 2 acceptable to the City Council and the Authority.
• Relevant Deadlines and Developer Request: The Option Agreement expires on
April 30, 2024. The Developer has requested that the Option Agreement be amended to
extend the term of the Option Agreement with respect to Block 2 until April 30, 2027.
c Considerations: Extension of the Option Agreement on the terms proposed would
allow for the continued development of the Project in a manner acceptable to the City and
the Developer. To date, the Developer has timely paid the Special Fee totaling
$553,897.46. The Authority will consider approval of the extension of the Option
Agreement at its April 16, 2024 meeting,subject to Council approval.
Public Information: Public information will be handled through the normal agenda
process.
-9. Alternatives: Approve the extension of the Option Agreement or allow the Option
Agreement to expire.
f Recommendation: City staff recommends approval of the requested extension.

AGENDA ITEM
ITEM: An Ordinance to Accept and Appropriate Funds for the Prevention Services
Program in the Department of Human Services
MEETING DATE: April 16, 2024
■ Background: The Prevention Services Program in the Department of Human
Services (DHS) provides an array of strategies intended to prevent substance use
disorders. The City follows the Strategic Prevention Framework established by the
Commonwealth. The Virginia Department of Behavioral Health and Developmental
Services provides one-time federal pass-through funding to DHS in support of these
efforts.
■ Considerations: If approved, the funds will support the Prevention Services
Program. As one-time funding, continued funding is not guaranteed. These additional
funds will be available for reimbursement from February 1, 2024, through September 30,
2025.

CITY OF VIRGINIA BEACH
AGENDA ITEM
ITEM: An Ordinance to Transfer Up to $800,000 in Vacancy Savings within the General
Fund to the Department of Emergency Medical Services and to Authorize Two
Positions
MEETING DATE: April 16, 2024
■ Background: Emergency medical services (EMS) agencies in the Hampton
Roads region of the Commonwealth of Virginia have received crucial medical supplies for
several decades through a drug and IV box exchange program run by the Tidewater EMS
Council (TEMS). Under this arrangement, area hospitals exchange fully stocked medical
supply kits with ones that have been depleted by EMS providers in the field at no cost to
EMS departments. Hospitals pay for these supplies, as well as physician oversight of the
exchange initiatives and staff labor to restock the kits. In Virginia Beach, both EMS and
Fire currently participate in the same drug/IV box kit exchange program. There are 81
drug and IV boxes in service throughout the City. From these kits, more than 13,000
therapies are administered each year at an estimated cost of$350,000 - $400,000.
Changes in federal law have brought mandated reforms to this process. Under the
Protecting Patient Access to Emergency Medications Act of 2017 and the Drug Supply
Chain Security Act, individual EMS departments must now establish dedicated internal
pharmaceutical management programs. The end of the statutory "grace period"
enumerated in the bills passed by Congress is November 27, 2024. If no action is taken
by the City and a program is not built for drug and IV exchanges by then, the Department
of EMS and the Fire Department will not be allowed to administer advanced life support
medications and pharmaceutical therapies beyond that date.
In order to ensure EMS is prepared to meet new federal regulations, this ordinance will
provide flexibility to the City Manager to establish two new positions and transfer funding
within the General Fund. It is possible the full amount of funding and positions will not be
needed. One unknown is whether Sentara will provide a 1:1 exchange program. The
funding request includes:
• Two new full-time employees to plan, build and administer an internal EMS
pharmaceutical supply program.
• Start-Up Supply Costs of approximately $800,000
• $100,000 for added vehicle(s), staff computers, radios, uniforms, etc.
• $250,000 for procurement of appropriate, and DEA approved, drug/IV
supply storage setups to put in place within Fire/EMS and rescue squad
stations throughout the City.
0 Up to $450,000 for procurement of initial medication and IV supply stock.
■ Considerations: The estimated FY 2023-24 cost is $800,000 and will be covered
through a transfer of vacancy savings within the General Fund.
In addition, the following funding in an estimated amount of $560,915 will need to be
budgeted annually beginning in FY 2024-25 through the Reconciliation process as it was
not part of the original EMS budget submission:
• Continued funding for the 2.0 new FTEs- estimated to be $185,915.
• An estimated $375,000 for medication restock, IV supply restock, etc.
To provide a sustainable funding source for the program, during Reconciliation, the City
Council could redirect a portion of the funding and the positions added for EMS in the
Proposed Operating Budget. For example, the proposed budget provides a total of 4.0
paramedic positions to EMS for $320,356 and a $800,000 grant to the Virginia Beach
Rescue Squads. Redirecting the FTEs that were added as a part of the proposed budget
would reduce the number of paramedics added to staff ambulances but will allow for the
continuation of the pharmaceutical program.

Subject: Urgent Funding Request: Federal Regulation Changes to Impact
EMS/Fire Pharmaceutical Supply Program
Author: Patrick A. Duhaney, City Manage
Departments: Budget and Management Services, mergency Medical Services, Fire
Date: March 22, 2024
Type of Item: Informational—City Council Only
Summary
On March 15, 2024, the Department of Emergency Medical Services was notified of Federal
regulation changes through the U.S. Drug Enforcement Agency as well as the U.S. Food and
Drug Administration that will necessitate changes in how medications for EMS agencies are
stored and purchased. The Virginia Board of Pharmacy has indicated that federal law will
prohibit the current practice of how regional EMS services are provided.
As a result, a full, City-run EMS pharmaceutical supply program will need to be in place and
operational prior to November 2024 to continue prehospital patient care services.
Since being notified of the regulation changes, staff has been diligently working to determine
resource needs (e.g., personnel, technology, supplies, etc.)needed to sustain service delivery.
The departments of Budget and Management Services, Emergency Medical Services and Fire
are working together to develop solutions for filling the gap left by the final rule enforced
through the Virginia Board of Pharmacy. As we work through the details of what this change
means for service delivery, staff has outlined resource needs and potential funding
mechanisms for City Council consideration.
The immediate request for positions and funding will come forward at the soonest available
voting meeting and because the impacts of the federal law were not known at the time of the
development of the FY2024-25 Proposed Operating Budget, additional adjustments will need
to be made to the department's operating budget as a part of Reconciliation.
Executive Summary
For more than forty (40) years, regional emergency medical services (EMS) agencies in the
Tidewater region received pharmaceutical supplies,such as medications and intravenous(IV)
therapies, through a drug and IV box exchange program. The exchange program was
managed through the Tidewater EMS Council, Inc. (TEMS) and area hospitals participated
by exchanging fully stocked kits for ones that were used, at no cost to EMS agencies.
City Council Staff Report
Urgent Funding Request: Federal Regulation Changes to
Impact EMS/Fire Pharmaceutical Supply Program
March 22, 2024
Agencies, such as the Department of EMS and the Fire Department, carry both an IV and
Drug box. These boxes are opened when a patient may require an IV or medication. The
ambulance crew then exchanges the open box for a new re-stocked box at the hospital the
patient was transported to. Currently, the hospital systems pay for the restocking of these
boxes and provide the physician oversight and/or staff labor to restock these.
Federal regulatory changes will necessitate an end to the regional kit exchange program. The
Protecting Patient Access to Emergency Medications Act of 2017 (PPAEMA) will result in
new Drug Enforcement Agency(DEA)regulations, and the Drug Supply Chain Security Act
(DSCSA) is forcing new Food and Drug Administration (FDA) regulations that have an
enforcement date of November 27, 2024. The current regional drug and IV kit exchange
process will not be compliant with new DSCSA requirements.
In Virginia Beach, both EMS and Fire currently participate in the same drug/IV box kit
exchange program. There are 81 drug and IV boxes in service throughout the city. From these
kits, more than 13,000 therapies are administered each year at an estimated cost of$350,000-
$400,000.
Summary of the Problem
• The Department of EMS provides the prehospital medical oversight, licensure and
related framework for the prehospital patient are components of the city's emergency
response system. The department will now need to apply for a controlled substance
registration and DEA licensure.
• The Department of EMS will need the staff, logistics, and financial capacity to fully
manage the procurement, restocking, auditing and medical oversight of related
pharmaceuticals and supplies if the hospital systems do not continue to provide this.
o The EMS Chief will submit a letter to Sentara requesting support of a 1:1
exchange program which could result in cost savings if mutually agreed upon.
• A full, internal, EMS pharmaceutical supply program will need to be in place and
operations prior to November 2024, for all prehospital patient care services to
continue.
• The Virginia Board of Pharmacy regulations for Schedule VI medications, or those
least likely to be abused, create additional burdens and barriers for licensed EMS
agencies. These regulations are open for public comment as part of a review process
on March 28, 2024, and EMS staff intends to attend, and provide comment requesting
updates and/or EMS agency exemption.
Page 2 of 5
City Council Staff Report
Urgent Funding Request: Federal Regulation Changes to
Impact EMS/Fire Pharmaceutical Supply Program
March 22, 2024
Background
• The regional drug and IV box exchange system will not be authorized, as is, after
November 2024.
• The Department of EMS does not currently have the staff, logistical foundation, or
financial capacity to initiate and sustain its own drug and IV supply program without
additional support.
• EMS staff is conducting research and site visits, both within Virginia and outside, to
develop `best-practices' for use within the City's emergency response system.
• The Department of EMS is applying for the required Board of Pharmacy Controlled
Substance Registration and DEA Drug Diversion licensure.
• In 49 other states EMS agencies provide for their own drug and IV supply needs,either
directly, or through a 1:1 medication or supply item exchange with their local
healthcare system.
• Controlled substances are classified as Schedule I through VI by the Virginia Board of
Pharmacy. EMS and Fire utilize medications in Schedules II through VI, with
narcotics being those in Schedules II through V.Virginia is the only state in the country
to add a Schedule VI, which includes most medications used by EMS. This adds
additional storage and accountability requirements that EMS agencies in other states
do not have.
Alternatives for City Council to Consider
Option 1: Fully Fund at approximately $850,000 and 2.0 FTEs in FY24 and incorporate
an additional $575,000 in the FY25 Reconciliation Process
• This option is the best possible solution given the urgency and critical nature of this
challenge. Staff can continue to monitor process improvement options, funding
strategies and grant opportunities.
Option 2: Phased or Partial Funding
• The Department of EMS could realign staff and resources from other programmatic
areas, such as EMS training, mobile integrated healthcare, or other staff support
position. However, any such realignment would limit outcomes in those areas. This is
not ideal given the call volume and increasing pressures on the existing staff and
volunteers.

City Council Staff Report
Urgent Funding Request: Federal Regulation Changes to
Impact EMS/Fire Pharmaceutical Supply Program
March 22, 2024
Option 3: Delaying Action
• A delay in action could be exasperated by supply chain issues and the Department of
EMS and the Fire Department may have a service level interruption as of November
2024.
Option 4: Null Alternative
• If nothing is done the Department of EMS and the Fire Department will not be able
to administer advanced life support medications and pharmaceutical therapies beyond
November 2024.
Funding Source/Resource Impacts
The recommended funding source for the resources needed in the current fiscal year is
vacancy savings within the General Fund. At the soonest available City Council meeting staff
will bring forth an ordinance to establish additional positions and provide transfer authority
for the City Manager to implement this necessary program.
Because the impacts of the federal law were not known at the time of the development of the
FY2024-25 Proposed Operating Budget, additional adjustments will need to be made to the
department's operating budget as a part of Reconciliation.
The estimated costs, including the one-time startup costs are as follows:
Need FTE Cost
EMS Brigade Officer 2.0 FTE $200,000
EMS Paramedic
Start-Up Supply Costs - $800,000
Annual Pharmaceutical Re- $375,000'
Supply -
Cost Breakdown:
Additional staff, funding, and resources are immediately needed to sustain prehospital
treatments and outcomes. These resources were not included as a part of the EMS FY 2024-
25 Proposed Budget.
The upcoming FY24 request will include:
• At least two new fulltime (2.0 FTE) employees to plan, build and administer an
internal EMS pharmaceutical supply program
• Start-Up Supply Costs of approximately $800,000
' This cost is subject to change if Sentara Health agrees to the 1:1 program which could
alleviate some expenses

throughout the city.
• Up to $450,000 for procurement of initial medication and IV supply stock.
In addition, the following funding will need to be budgeted annually beginning in FY25
through the Reconciliation process as it was not part of the original EMS budget submission:
• Continued funding for the net new FTEs
• An estimated $375,000 for medication restock, IV supply restock, etc.

CITY OF VIRGINIA BEACH
AGENDA ITEM
ITEM: CITY OF VIRGINIA BEACH [Applicant & Property Owner] APPEAL of
Historical Review Board decision on application to modify Certificate of
Appropriateness#21-20 to temporarily alter window openings (APPROVED)
and remove natural slate roof and replace with synthetic slate (DENIED) for
the property located at 2403 Courthouse Drive (GPIN 1494814958).
COUNCIL DISTRICT 2
MEETING DATE: April 16, 2024
■ Background:
The Municipal Center is located within the Courthouse Historic & Cultural District,
a zoning overlay established on May 12, 1969, to preserve and protect the historic,
cultural, and architectural heritage of the Municipal Center and Courthouse Village.
This area is significant as the seat of local governance in Virginia Beach and former
Princess Anne County. Per Section 1303(a) of the Zoning Ordinance, a Certificate
of Appropriateness issued by the Historical Review Board is required before any
building or structure (including signs) in a Historic& Cultural District is constructed,
altered, repaired, relocated, or demolished.
On January 19, 2022, the Historical Review Board approved Certificate of
Appropriateness (COA) #21-20 for a partial exterior renovation of Building 3
(former City Hall). The approved scope of work specifically excluded repairs or
alterations to the roof of the building which were planned for a future repair project.
In Fall 2023, the Department of Public Works applied for an after-the-fact
modification to COA#21-20 to approve temporary alterations to window openings
made in the building's east elevation and to approve the removal of the natural
slate roof on Building 3 and replacement with synthetic slate. The described work
was started before an application for a Certificate of Appropriateness was
submitted. The proposed synthetic slate is DaVinci Province in "Slate Gray."
On December 20, 2023, the Historical Review Board heard the application for the
modification and approved the request for the temporary alterations made to
window openings and denied the request to replace the natural slate roof with
synthetic slate. The board stated that synthetic slate is an inappropriate
replacement material for natural slate and expressed concern that creeping loss
of historic materials in the district threatens its overall historical integrity.
City of Virginia Beach
Page 2 of 3
■ Considerations:
Building 3 is a significant building in the Courthouse Historic& Cultural District and
is listed as a contributing resource in the Virginia Beach Courthouse Village and
Municipal Center Historic District, a historic district listed in the National Register
of Historic Places. The National Register nomination calls this building the
"municipal center's centerpiece" when discussing the modern expansion of the
complex and its importance to the overall significance of this area. Inspiration for
Building 3's design came from the 1934 reconstructed Governor's Palace at
Colonial Williamsburg, Virginia. The slate roof is one of the major character-
defining features of Building 3, which are the elements that are used to assess a
historic district's overall historical integrity and significance.
Article 13 of the Zoning Ordinance establishes and regulates the City's Historic &
Cultural Districts, which, as stated in Section 1300, are intended to preserve and
protect such buildings, structures, and properties and their historic significance
and integrity. Section 1303(c)(1) identifies the factors that the Historical Review
Board shall consider when reviewing an application for a Certificate of
Appropriateness. Project cost is excluded from the factors considered when
issuing a Certificate of Appropriateness. Conformance with the Secretary of the
Interior's Standards for Rehabilitation is the primary factor for consideration.
The use of synthetic slate in this instance does not meet the Secretary of the
Interior's Standards, specifically Standards 2, 5, and 6. Synthetic products do not
have the same visual character as natural slate when assessing it from a historic
preservation perspective. Synthetic resins cannot replicate the depth of color of
natural slate, nor do they have the same reflectivity. While there have been
improvements in resin- and polymer-based materials, these compounds are
known to be vulnerable to shrinkage and cracking and, even with advanced UV-
stabilizers, are susceptible to fading; these issues contribute to a shorter material
life span than natural slate. Synthetic slate, as noted by Public Works in its letter
of intent to appeal, has an estimated longevity of 30 to 50 years. The longevity of
natural slate is typically between 60 and 120 years, with 60 years being the useful
life estimate according to Public Works, which is twice the estimated lifespan for
synthetic products. For these reasons, synthetic slate is considered an
inappropriate replacement material when replacing a historic slate roof. The
Virginia Department of Historic Resources does not recommend its use in place of
natural slate for contributing historic resources when reviewing projects that are
subject to the Secretary of the Interior's Standards.
Further details pertaining to the application, as well as Staffs evaluation, are
provided in the attached Staff Report.
■ Recommendation:
On December 20, 2023, the Historical Review Board denied the request to use
synthetic slate by a vote of 6 to 0 with Mr. Seitz abstaining due to a conflict of

interest. If the City Council chooses to overturn the decision of the board, Staff
recommends the following condition:
1. A Certificate of Appropriateness from the Historical Review Board shall be
obtained in the future when the synthetic slate on Building 3/former City Hall is
replaced.

INTER-OFFICE MEMORANDUM
DATE: January 12, 2024
TO: Kathy Warren, Director of Planning and�Community Development
FROM: LJ Hansen, PE, Director of Public Works
SUBJECT: Intent to Appeal Historic Review Board Decision; Certificate of
Appropriateness #23-11; Part B: Removal of slate roof and
replacement with synthetic slate, 2403 Courthouse Drive
On December 20, 2023, the Historical Review Board (HRB) reviewed an application to modify a
Certificate of Appropriateness#23-11 to include the removal of the existing slate roof to be
replaced with new synthetic slate on Building 1 (now 133) at the City Municipal Complex, 2403
Courthouse Drive, Virginia Beach. The HRB denied the request to remove the slate roof and to
replace it with synthetic slate. In its motion to deny the request to use synthetic slate, the board
approved the use of natural slate to be used on the building.
The purpose of this letter is to provide NOTICE OF INTENT TO APPEAL this decision pursuant
to Appendix A of the Zoning Ordinance; Article 13, Historic and Cultural District; Sec. 1303,
Certificates of Appropriateness; paragraph (c), Grounds for issuance and denial of certificate of
appropriateness; sub-paragraph (3), Notice of appeal.
The grounds for recommending simulated slate over natural includes increased cost of natural
slate over synthetic; various advantages of synthetic slate to include, but not limited to,
durability, lightweight design, and aesthetic flexibility; relative low cost and ease of maintenance
and repair of synthetic material; and product availability. Furthermore, using natural slate will
delay the roof project and will likely result in schedule and cost creep of the building 3
renovation currently underway. Failure to approve this appeal may also result in the need to
install and remove a temporary roof to protect the exposed 'blue skin' and to properly 'weather-
in' the facility (B3), among other cost and technical factors.
The follow is additional information in support of this appeal:
• The capital cost impact to the City of Virginia Beach to provide natural slate above and
beyond the installation of the simulated slate is estimated to be $2,500,000 to
$5,000,000 (the basis of this estimate is a rough order cost from the contractor of$2.5M
and additional cost to install and remove a temporary roof). As such, replacement of
existing slate roofing with natural slate is not cost effective.
• Synthetic roof slate offers several advantages over its natural counterpart:

Part B: Removal of slate roof and replacement with synthetic slate, 2403 Courthouse
Drive. Page 2
o Firstly, it is very durable and resistant to harsh weather conditions, including hail
and extreme temperatures. This durability translates into a long lifespan (typically
30 to 50 years), providing a cost-effective, low-maintenance roofing solution.
o Synthetic slate is lighter than natural slate, easing the burden on a structure's
load-bearing capacity and simplifying the installation process. This can result in
reduced labor costs and a quicker installation timeline. Additionally, the uniformity
of synthetic slate tiles allows for easier replacement in case of damage, as
opposed to the natural variation in size and thickness found in natural slate.
o Environmental considerations also favor synthetic slate. While natural slate
mining has environmental implications, synthetic slate is often made from
recycled materials, contributing to sustainability. The manufacturing process of
synthetic slate tends to be more energy-efficient and produces less waste
compared to extracting and processing natural slate.
o In terms of aesthetics, synthetic slate can convincingly mimic the appearance of
natural slate, providing a visually appealing alternative without sacrificing
performance. Overall, the combination of durability, lightweight design,
environmental benefits, and aesthetic flexibility makes synthetic roof slate a
superior choice for this application.
• Use of natural slate poses safety concerns. Natural shingles can crack and fall from time
to time. This creates a potentially hazardous situation which could result in serious injury
or death. Slate catchers have been added to the existing roof for this very reason, which
add cost and are inconsistent with the historic period.
o Risk-based safety analysis should consider the steep roof pitch, which increases
the likelihood of falling slate shingle, as well as the use and occupancy of the
building. Specifically, the intended use is administrative with frequent City
employee and public interactions, not related to tourism as an historic landmark.
o To mitigate these safety concerns, real slate requires careful attention and
periodic inspections to address issues like cracked, broken, or dislodged tiles.
However, regular inspections and repair by maintenance staff is beyond current
staffing and funding levels, particularly for an administrative building.
• It is inappropriate to assume B3 has structural capacity to support a natural slate roof.
As such, additional analysis by a registered structural engineer will be needed if natural
slate tile is used since code may have changed, available tiles may be heavier than the
tiles removed, or both. Additional analysis and the time needed to source, evaluate,
select, order, receive, and install natural slate is another factor to consider. These
factors will add considerable cost and time to the project.
• There are currently no funds to purchase and install natural slate, should this appeal be
denied. The presently indeterminate amount of the fund request ranges from $2.5M to
$5M as described above.
• Combined, these factors (i.e., need for structural analysis /design, time to select and
procure natural slate, and lack of funding) will result in the need to install (and later
remove and dispose of) a temporary roofing system to protect the exposed `blue-skin'
and to properly weather in the building, adding considerable cost and waste to the
project. This factor contributes significantly to the current cost estimate range. Failure to
properly weather in the building, although a possible cost savings, presents greater risk
of increased cost, potential damage to City property, and other liabilities than installing
and demolishing a temporary roofing system.
• It is unreasonable to assume salvaged tiles from B2 and B3 can be used:
LJ Hansen, Public Works Director
Intent to Appeal Historic Review Board Decision; Certificate of Appropriateness #23-11;
Part B: Removal of slate roof and replacement with synthetic slate, 2403 Courthouse
Drive. Page 3
o Salvage tiles from B2 and B3 do not provide enough salvageable stock to
replace the roof on B3. Additionally, to date, no providers of the existing slate tile
have been found, so existing (stock/salvaged) slate cannot be reasonably
matched in color or in other characteristics, such as thickness.
o Building 3 slate appears to be different than B2 slate material. Specifically,
pattern, design, and type of material appear to vary upon reasonable inspection.
o Building 3 slate was almost impossible to salvage as it was nailed into concrete
versus plywood. Additionally, B3 slate appears to be more brittle, and its useful
life has deteriorated considerably more than slate salvaged from B2. As a result,
slate recovered from B3 is not suitable for even small repairs.
o Slate from B2 appears to have lost over half of its life. Many of the salvaged
stock recovered from B2 are questionable for reuse and may be suitable for only
small repairs but lack durability for reuse as suggested by the HRB.
o From Article 29, Preservation Briefs: Useful life: Longevity (if new) is estimated at
60 - 125 years (this time is likely based on a single application and greatly
reduced if tore off and applied a second time). After experienced and thoughtful
examination of recovered stock, it is recommended useful life be limited to 60
years. As such,
■ Building 2 slate is 43-44 years old and has 16 years left. Reused slate
would not meet quality, durability, and appearance standards as
suggested in this decision but could be used for minor repairs.
■ Building 3 is mostly unsalvageable and its minimum useful life will be less
than B2 slate and should not be reused, even for minor repairs.
It is important to note, there are insufficient funds in the source program to purchase and install
natural slate, should this appeal be denied. It is also important to note that replacement of the
roof is being performed under an emergency procurement to prevent damage and loss of City
property from water intrusion; the current work stoppage places City property a greater risk than
existed at the time of the approved emergency procurement.

Background & Summary of Proposal
Summary of Request
• The applicant is requesting a modification to COA#21-10 for the following work started without approval during the
renovation of Building 3 (formerly known as Building 1):
o Temporary alteration to three window openings in the east elevation to accommodate removal of debris
from building's interior.
o Removal of the slate roof with the intention of replacing slate tiles with synthetic slate.
• The applicant proposes to use DaVinci Province in "Slate Gray'to replace the original slate roof on Building 3.
o Note: DaVinci Bellaforte in "Slate Gray" had been used to roof City Hall (Building 1) and Building 2. Bellaforte
was discontinued by DaVinci on May 31, 2023.The new Province line from DaVinci replaces Bellaforte and is
expected to look and perform similarly.
Summary of Timeline
• During an unrelated tour of Building 3 on October 10, 2023, Preservation Staff became aware of the alteration of
three window openings in the east elevation of Building 3. Sills and masonry had been removed to use the openings
as doorways.Staff immediately notified Public Works to submit an application for after-the-fact approval for these
changes.An application for the alterations was received on October 30,2023.
• On November 29, 2023, Preservation Staff conducted a site visit to take photographs for the December 20, 2023
Historical Review Board meeting. At this time, Preservation Staff saw that a majority of the historic slate roof had
been removed from Building 3 and that the three openings in the east elevation had been reclosed with CMU block
on the interior and red brick veneer in Flemish bond on the exterior.Staff immediately contacted Public Works to
meet at the site on December 1,2023 to discuss what had occurred and to cease all work on the roof. An amended
application was submitted to Staff on December 4, 2023 to request approval of the removal of the slate roof and to
use synthetic slate as a replacement material.
o The applicant has indicated that there were leaks in the roof that were affecting recently installed
equipment and materials inside Building 3 and that this was the reason that work on the roof was funded
through an emergency change order.The emergency change order was approved on August 22,2023. Work
on the roof did not begin until November 2023.
• Work undertaken on the roof at Building 3 was done so without a roofing permit. Plans submitted for building
permits at Building 3 explicitly stated that the "existing slate mansard roof to remain." Original permit
Previously Approved Scope of Work(COA#21-20)
• On January 19, 2022,the Historical Review Board approved a Certificate of Appropriateness (COA#21-20)for a
renovation of Building 3/Old City Hall (then still known as Building 1/City Hall). Exterior alterations were to
accompany an interior renovation to transition the building from use as City Hall to house the departments of
Planning&Community Development and Public Utilities. Exterior alterations included:
o Exterior door replacement
o Window replacement
o Alteration to rear door openings
o Replacement of seven dormer windows with louvres
o Limited masonry repair
o Construction of a new loading dock
o Associated site improvements, including updated signage and driveway

Page 2
The approved scope of work included no alterations to window or door openings and no removal of slate roof tiles.
When asked explicitly during the Historical Review Board meeting if openings would need to be altered to
accommodate work,as they had been done without approval during renovation of Building 2,the applicant stated
that no openings would require alteration.
Property History
• Building 3 (formerly Building 1) of the Municipal Center served as City Hall for Virginia Beach since it was completed
in 1968 until it was moved to the new Building 1 in 2022. Inspiration for Building 3's design came from the 1934
reconstructed Governor's Palace at Colonial Williamsburg,Virginia.This is evident in the building's symmetrical
design, Flemish bond,steeply pitched slate roof, regular fenestration,and cupola in the central bay. Building 3 has
remained in place with no major alterations to its overall form since the early construction of the east wing of the
building.
Appropriateness of -
• Building 3/01d City Hall is identified as a contributing resource in the Virginia Beach Courthouse Village and
Municipal Center Historic District that is listed in the National Register of Historic Places.
• The building's Flemish bond brick work,fenestration,and steep, slate roof are all identified as character-defining
features of Building 3 in the National Register nomination for the historic district.
• The applicant has returned the altered window openings to their original dimensions with matching red brick in a
Flemish bond.
• Synthetic slate is not recommended as a suitable replacement material on historic buildings given its uniformity,
ridged appearance, readily apparent difference in relief, and its potential to fade and shrink overtime.
• Building 3 is much closer to the sidewalk than City Hall(Building 1) and Building 2 and is smaller in scale.These
factors make the roof much more visible than City Hall and Building 2.
EvaluationStaff s - • • . •
There are two primary components of this application:the first addresses the alteration of openings and the second
addresses the roof. Staff recommends splitting this application into two parts,as discussed below:
Part A:Alteration of Openings
The applicant stated that no openings would be altered to accommodate any of the interior work on the building when
the renovation of Building 3/01d City Hall had first been presented to the Historical Review Board. Staff would have
recommended no openings be altered given the status of this building as a contributing resource in the National Register
district; however,Staff notes, in this instance,that the enlargement of the openings has been shown to be temporary
and that the openings have been returned to their original dimensions.The exterior brick work and interior wall have
also been returned to their original materials (red brick veneer in Flemish bond on the exterior and CMU block on the
interior).This approach is similar to what Staff would have recommended to address the violation.
Staff Recommendation:While the alteration is noticeable on the exterior due to the difference in age of mortar
now present on the fagade, it is Staffs opinion that the work is acceptable and recommends approval after the
fact subject to the recommended conditions below.
City of Virginia Beach
Agenda Item #23-11
Page 3
1. All conditions listed in COA#21-20 remain in effect.
2. This approval is only for the three openings in Building 3 as discussed in the Staff Report dated December 20,
2023. No additional opening alterations—whether temporary or permanent—are permitted with this approval.
3. All change orders relating to the exterior building envelope (including but not limited to the roof, window/door
openings, materials, repairs) shall be submitted for review by Historic Preservation Staff prior to executing any
change.
Part B:Removal/Replacement of Slate Roof
The suitability of alternative materials in Historic&Cultural Districts varies depending on the properties of the requested
material,the significance of the structure on which they are to be used, and the context in which the material is stated
to be needed. Generally, alternative materials are more likely to be compatible on non-contributing structures or in new
construction projects than they are to replace traditional/historic building materials. Performance, durability, and visual
characteristics can vary widely between traditional building materials and newer alternative materials. Differences can
be both subtle and readily apparent and the widespread use of alternative materials in a historic district has a
cumulative effect that has the potential to erase an area's historic character.
In general,synthetic slate is not considered to be an acceptable replacement material for historic slate. Synthetic
products do not have the same visual character of natural slate. Synthetic resins cannot replicate the depth of color of
natural slate, nor do they have the same reflectivity.The proposed DaVinci Province synthetic slate comes as a single-
width shingle;the uniform thickness and widths of such shingles creates a clearly manufactured roof pattern, as can be
seen at City Hall and Building 2. It cannot reproduce the same patterning created by natural slate in thickness (profile),
texture, or color.
Natural slate roofs are known to perform well over time, lasting on average between 40 and 60 years and can last up to
120 years.The roof on Building 3 had remained in place,with selective repair,since the 1960s.That there was a need for
repair is unsurprising,given the age of the roof. Synthetic slate shingles are relatively recent materials,and their
longevity and durability are still unknown. While there have been improvements in resin-and polymer-based materials,
these compounds are known to be vulnerable to shrinkage and cracking and, even with advanced UV-stabilizers,are
susceptible to fading. For these reasons,synthetic slate does not meet the Secretary of the Interior's Standards when
considering a roof rehabilitation project;the Virginia Department of Historic Resources does not recommend their use in
place of natural slate for contributing historic resources when reviewing projects that are subject to the Secretary of the
Interior's Standards. Similar guidance has been included in the Design Guidelines for Historic&Cultural Districts,which
includes a specific call out on the differences between natural and synthetic slate and why the latter is not an in-kind
material.
Long-term planning is crucial in the maintenance and repair of slate roofs.As a long-lived material,there is adequate
time in which to plan for repair and eventual replacement. When the applicant approached Staff in summer 2021 about
the proposed renovation of Building 3,they said that,while repairs to the roof were expected to be necessary in the
near future, repairs to the roof were going to be excluded from the renovation project.This understanding was taken
into account by the Historical Review Board when it reviewed and approved a request to replace the slate roof at
Building 2 with synthetic slate on October 19, 2022.Approval for the removal of slate roofing from Building 2 included a
discussion and a directive to stockpile salvageable slate for use on Building 3 and/or other slate roofs in the Municipal
Center.This was recommended to provide some cost mitigation for repairs at Building 3 and to provide a source of slate
that is known to be a good match for the Municipal Center. Salvaged slate from Building 2 is approximately 43 to 44
years old. Given its age, it may be better suited for minor repairs rather than for a full roof replacement.
Building 3, Old City Hall, is a significant building in the Municipal Center and in the historic districts located there. It
embodies the evolution of governance in Princess Anne County/Virginia Beach and the importance and dominance of
Colonial Revival design during the mid-twentieth century period of expansion.As the Municipal Center continues to
adapt to operational needs,the seat of activity will continue to shift, as it once did from the Princess Anne County
Courthouse to Old City Hall (Building 3). Such shifts are natural, but they do not lessen the historical or architectural
City of Virginia Beach
Agenda Item #23-11
Page 4
significance of other buildings.The National Register nomination calls Building 3 the "municipal center's centerpiece"
when discussing the modern expansion of the complex. Hasty action should not necessitate the loss of a critical,
defining feature in the city's most visible Historic&Cultural District.
Staff Recommendation:Staff recommends denial of the request for the wholesale replacement of historic slate
with synthetic slate roofing on Building 3.
It is Staff's understanding that a new underlayment has been installed on the exposed portions of the roof at Building 3,
weatherproofing it for the time being. A temporary covering or roofing material might be warranted to further secure
the roof while salvaged tiles are assessed for use and additional slate is ordered.

The G"slate pattern is accomplished by setting each tilt hack G".With this method the gutters between tiles are in alignment on
alternate roursm.'thin installation method makes for a very orderly look.'Phis installation pattern is the most difficult and requires
fmquent checking of vertical alignment by means of chalk liars.Both a a"and G"pattern will also require..the.installer to use extra

When using the.)"or G"method on gate,it is important to make the pattern conic out both vertically and horizontally on top or
a dormer or a gable.that abuts the roof lower than the ridge gable.In order to do this the left side.or a dormer(for example)must
he installed with several tiles above the top of the.dormer.With this completed,a chalk line may be struck that aligns the right
corners of Ihe.installed tiles and goes all the.way down to the cave on the right side.of the dormer.Once the.chalk line.is in place.,
the installer may place the right side or the bottom tile.on the line.He should use this as a guide to install the necessary tiles to the
left.Subsequent courses are installed with a 5"or G"setback.Good horizontal alignment may be.assured by snapping occasional
horizontal lines.
Chalk lines should be snapped on the underlayment only.Do not snap chalk lines on the visible portion of any

Subject:Emergency Change Order for Building 3(old 1)
Hi Joe,
Please formally send this emergency change order email to Lavera Tolentino,
Facilities Design&Construction Division requests permission to issue an Emergency Procurement to MEB General
Contractors,Inc.to complete the subject work.
Work will replace all slate roof areas on Building 1(Now 63)as outlined in the attached Change Order Proposal from
MEB.
Cost to execute contract is$2,100,888.78
Funds are identified in CIP 100446 task#085 IAO$2.2M as currently unbilled/available to cover this work
Scope:The purchase order will replace all existing slate roof areas on Building 1(now 83),install DaVinci Bellaforte'Slate
Gray'synthetic slate tiles with synthetic underlayment.Base price of$2,100,888.78 includes the installation of copper
valleys,hips,ridges,and copings required to comply w/Building 3 listingon the historic register.
Justification:The decision was made to exclude the Building 3 roof replacement from the current project underway
(Operations Facilities Renovations)based on known conditions of the existing roofing system during preparation of the
solicitation documents,at the time of contract solicitation,and subsequent award. However,interior demolition and
detailed intrusive inspection by the Contractor and City staff revealed that the slate roof area needs replacement. As
such,full replacement of the Building 3 slate roof is required to prevent damage to newly renovated space(i.e.,to
protector preserve public property). Failure to replace the existing Building 3 slate roof poses the potential for
significant cost and schedule delays if not corrected quickly.
If you have any questions or concerns,please contact me or the PM(Tim Oliver).
Thank-you,

Certificate of Appropriateness Application #23-10—Dills Architects—Preliminary
Presentation of 5/31 Memorial; 2508 Princess Anne Road, GPIN 14948317420000—Courthouse
Historic and Cultural District
Clay Dills and Anna Campbell with Dills Architects presented the design and project plan for the
proposed 5/31 Memorial in the Courthouse Historic and Cultural District. Mr. Dills gave a brief
summary of the site selection process,as well as the request for qualification and design contest
process. He then provided an overview of the design,design considerations,materials, and
landscape planning, including the following comments:
• Portion of the existing parking area on site will be incorporated into the design.
• The memorial is designed to restore much of the existing woodland area and will retain
and preserve existing mature swamp chestnut oak trees.
• The memorial will incorporate a vertical,meandering water feature, stone paths, stone
walls, and planted elements. Lighting will be achieved with bollard lights and lights
strung through the trees.
• The material palette will be minimal and subdued:
o Virginia Mist dark gray stone will be used for the life walls and the water feature.
It will be used in a smooth,polished(honed) finish and a thermal finish.
o Simple granite pavers will be used for walkways through the primary part of the
memorial.
o Surface materials are still being selected for other walking paths around the
existing stormwater pond.
• Vertical elements of the design include:
o Stone walls (to be Virginia Mist)at entrance of Survivor's Grove
o Bollards
o Railings at several outlooks around the pond
o Fountain and retaining wall
o Fountain pump room
• The fountain pump room will be a modern building with perforated metal paneling. The
pump area will be below grade and the construction of the building and use of perforated
panels will minimize noise, allow for ventilation, and will make access to the pump area
easier for maintenance. It will be additionally screened with plants.
There were a few questions from board members, including:
• Mr. Poole asked if the fountain would be winterized. Mr. Dills affirmed.
• Mr. Poole asked about the age of the Hero Tree and its health. Mr. Dills estimated the
tree is 80 to 100 years old and that a recent review of the tree by an arborist confirmed it
is in excellent health. When asked about replacement if/when the tree dies, he said he
expected it would be replaced in kind.
• Mr. McNaughton asked clarifying questions about the lighting design.
2
• Mr. Reed and Ms.Nowak asked for clarification about whether the outlooks and paths
around the pond would be included with the project or if they would be part of a
separate, future project. Mr. Dills confirmed that these elements would be moving
forward with the primary memorial. Mr. Reed explained to the design team that all
elements of the project will need review by the Historical Review Board, not just the
visible/vertical elements or those visible from the public right-of-way.
• Mr. Vachon asked about timeline. Mr. Dills said they were hoping to bid the project in
March or April of 2024 to be open May 31,2025.
• Mr. Seitz said that it was his opinion that quality of materials and design are most
important for this project and that it is, in many ways, separate from the historic core of
the district. He suggested considering a gradation of materials to tie the site into the
historic area as one moves closer to Princess Anne Road.
Mr. Dills closed his presentation by reiterating that the intent of the design was to create quiet
places for reflection and to restore and use the natural setting to the greatest advantage.
Bernice Pope joined the meeting around 4:20 p.m. during the presentation. Hayden DuBay also
joined the meeting during the presentation around 4:30 p.m.
Certificate of Appropriateness Application#23-08—Joseph L. & Sara B. Pace—Request to
demolish existing deck and build new deck; 2540 Magnolia Green Loop, GPIN
14947173560007—Courthouse Historic and Cultural District
Ms.Nowak presented the application,a request to demolish an existing wood deck and to
replace it with a new deck made of Trex boards with a vinyl and PVC railing. She noted that the
deck will not be visible and that the house and the rest of Courthouse Green has vinyl material
throughout,which, in Staffs opinion, would be complemented by the proposed materials. The
applicant representative, Melanie Samulak, showed a sample of the railing and deck boards.
Mr. Seitz said he felt there would be no negative impact on the house or Courthouse Green.
Mary Ann Schmidt said that the design looked fine. Mr. McNaughton made a motion to approve
the request with the conditions as recommended in the staff report. Ms. Pope seconded the
motion. There was no additional discussion. The motion was approved by a vote of 7 to 0.
Certificate of Appropriateness Application#23-09—Cafe Genevieve, LLC—Request to
install new sign; 317 S Witchduck Road, GPIN 14677060980000—Carraway House Historic
and Cultural District
Ms.Nowak presented the application, a request to replace an existing sign with a new sign that
will reuse the existing posts and external illumination at the Carraway House. She noted that the
new sign will be the same type of sign foam as the existing.
Mr. McNaughton asked for clarification that the sign would not be internally illuminated. Ms.
Nowak confirmed that it will be externally illuminated with uplighting from existing lights.

Ms. Pope made a recommendation to approve the request with the recommended conditions as
noted in the staff report. Mr. Poole seconded the motion. There was no additional discussion.
The motion was approved by a vote of 7 to 0.
Certificate of Appropriateness Application#23-11 —City of Virginia Beach—Request to
modify COA#21-20 to alter openings in east elevation and replace existing slate roof with
synthetic slate; 2403 Courthouse Drive, GPIN 14948149580000—Courthouse Historic and
Cultural District
Prior to discussion of the case, Mr. Seitz recused himself from the meeting and had the following
statement included in the record:
Pursuant to the Virginia Conflict of Interests Act, Sections 2.2-3115(F),
Code of Virginia, I make the following declarations:
1. I am executing this written disclosure regarding the
Historical Review Board's discussion and vote on the
application of the City of Virginia Beach for a certificate of
appropriateness for Municipal Center Complex Building 3,
which is located at 2403 Courthouse Drive, Virginia
Beach, VA 23456.
2. Clark Nexsen is one of the applicant's service providers
with respect to this application.
3. I am an employee of Clark Nexsen,and its address is 4525
Main Street, Suite 1400, Virginia Beach,Virginia 23462.
4. I will abstain from participating in the Board's
consideration of this application.
He turned the meeting over to Mr. Poole, Vice Chair,to chair the meeting.
Ms.Nowak presented the application—the request to approve work started without approval on
window openings in the east elevation of Building 3 and removal and replacement of the
Building 3's slate roof with synthetic shingles. Three window openings had been enlarged to
accommodate removal of debris from the interior of the building and Staff became aware of this
change in October. She noted that when Staff visited the site in late November and early
December,the openings had been reclosed to the previous dimensions with matching brick and
mortar.
Additionally, when on these site visits to Building 3, Ms.Nowak said they observed removal of a
majority portion of historic slate from the roof and learned soon after that this work had also
been undertaken without a building permit. She said that Public Works had communicated to
Staff that they had found leaks in the roof while undertaking interior renovations and that there
had been concerns of negative impacts on new materials in the building. The roofing work had
4
been pursued through an emergency work order. Unlike Building 2,the superstructure of the roof
on Building 3 is made of concrete. This caused a high amount of slate tile loss(approximately
30-40%)when removing the slate. Whole slates have been retained,though, given their age,their
reuse is limited.
Ms.Nowak explained Staff s recommendation as recorded in the staff report. She noted that the
approach taken on the window alterations were consistent with how Staff would have
recommended resolution and recommended approval of the request. She said that, as synthetic
slate is an inappropriate replacement material for historic slate and as Building 3 is a significant
structure in the Courthouse Historic and Cultural District,that Staff recommended denial of this
portion of the application. She noted that representatives from Public Works were in attendance
to answer questions from the board.
Ms. Pope asked generally about the removal of the slate. Timothy Oliver said that what slate
could be salvaged, was. He said that they had been looking for a suitable replacement slate tile,
but that there had been difficulty finding a good match. Ms. Pope asked where they had looked.
Mr. Oliver said they had reached out to Buckingham,but that their quarries were closed to large
projects and large production qualities. Vincent Rozella said that 276 squares of slate would be
needed on Building 3. Mr. Oliver added that the contractor on the project was still searching for
a match.Ms. Pope said that she had recently replaced her slate roof and said she would pass
along contact information about where that slate had been sourced from.
Mr. Rozella gave some additional information about the difference in underlayment between
Buildings 2 and 3 and how that affected the removal of slate tiles from the buildings. He added
that the salvaged slate from Building 2 would be better suited for limited repair as their life span
may be reduced to 16 years,assuming a 50 year life span for the tiles.
Mr. DuBay asked again about efforts to identify compatible slate. Mr. Oliver said that a match
has not been found among the suppliers that MEB (project contractor)typically sources from. He
added that they had been attempting to match slate gray and the grays they have found were not
an exact color match and that he had safety concerns about loose slate shingles. Ms. Pope said
that checking for loose slates is part of routine maintenance.
Mr. Dubay asked about the roof structure and Mr. Rozella described the structure of the roof and
that the concrete decking was in fine shape to be reused; loose panels can be retightened.
Mr. Dubay asked the board whether a combination of natural slate and synthetic slate would
work. The other members said that it would not as the two could not be laid together and it
would be jarring visually.
Mr. Poole said that he liked the snowguards that had been installed on City Hall and Building 2
and asked that they also be added on Building 3 when the roofing was installed.
Mr. Rozella talked about the synthetic slate that had been used on City Hall and Building 2 and
their visual characteristics. Mr. DuBay asked if natural slate had been considered for those
buildings. Mr. Rozella said no due to cost and maintenance.
5
Ms. Pope expressed strong concern about the creep of synthetic slate in the Courthouse Historic
and Cultural District and how it is degrading the overall integrity of the district over time.
Mr. McNaughton asked about the roofing material of the Princess Anne County Courthouse. Mr.
Reed and Ms.Nowak confirmed that it is still natural slate.
Ms. Pope said that the material of the roof was more important than the color. Between natural
slate of a color that was not an exact match and synthetic slate, she said she would prefer the
natural slate. Mr. McNaughton said that Vermont slate has a bit of a green tinge, but that there
are gray hues usually available. Mr. Poole said that a generally gray or dark gray natural slate
would be better than synthetic slate.
Ms. Pope said that the City should be working with a contractor that specializes in slate roofs,
both for installation and for maintenance because of the skills set required. Mr. Oliver said that
bidding requirements might limit the ability to do this. Ms. Pope said that there are a few people
in the region who do specialize.
Mr. DuBay asked if the slate on the Princess Anne County Courthouse had ever been replaced.
Mr. Reed said that that roof was likely replaced or partially replaced in the early 1900s,but he
was unsure if there had been a wholesale replacement since then. He was aware of some partial
repairs. Ms. Pope said that really the conversation today was whether synthetic slate would be
appropriate on the building.
Ms. Pope made a motion to approve Staff recommendation to Part A of the application
(temporary alteration of window openings)with Staff's recommendation and to deny Part B of
the application (request to use synthetic slate on Building 3)with approval of slate for Building 3
under the condition that the color of natural slate be approved by the Historical Review Board
before installation. Ms. Schmidt seconded the motion. During discussion,Mr. DuBay said that he
strongly agreed that natural slate should be used on this building due to its significance in the
Historic and Cultural District and the National Register District. There was no additional
discussion. The motion passed with a vote of 6 in favor, 0 against, and with Mr. Seitz abstaining.
Following the conclusion of the last item, Mr. Poole passed the gavel back to Mr. Seitz who
resumed chairing the meeting.
Staff Update
Mr. Reed thanked the Historical Review Board for its letter of support for the nomination of the
Seatack Historic District to the National Register of Historic Places. He informed the board that
the district had been listed in the Virginia Landmarks Register earlier this month and that it had
been recommended to the National Park Service to also list the district in the National Register
of Historic Places.
Recommendation of Officer Slate for 2024
Mr. Seitz returned to the earlier agenda item for the recommendation of an officer slate for 2024.
He asked if there were any nominations that would be voted on at the upcoming January
6
meeting. Ms. Pope nominated Mr. McNaughton as Chair and Mr. Poole as Vice Chair. Mr.
DuBay seconded the motion.
Old Business
The Old Business was tabled for discussion at the next meeting.
New Business
Ms.Nowak said that attendance requirements will restart in the new calendar year and said that
she had included a sheet with the scheduled meetings for the board in 2024 in the meeting
packet.
Ms. Pope made a motion to adjourn. Mr. DuBay seconded the motion. The meeting was
adjourned at 5:30 p.m.

RE: Certificate of Appropriateness Application#23-11: Modification of Certificate of
Appropriateness#21-20—City of Virginia Beach—Alterations to window openings &
replacement of slate roof with synthetic slate—2403 Courthouse Drive-GPIN
1494814958- Courthouse Historic& Cultural Overlay District
Dear Mr. Oliver,
On December 20, 2023, the Historical Review Board reviewed a request to modify Certificate of
Appropriateness (COA) #21-20 to include alterations to window openings in Building 3/Old City
Hall (Building 3) that had been made without approval and the removal of Building 3's slate
roof that had been initaited without approval and its subsequent replacement with new
synthetic slate.The request was heard under COA application #23-11.To faciliate review of and
action on the application, the request was split into two parts: Part A(alterations to window
openings) and Part B (slate roof removal and replacement with synthetic slate).
Part A:Alterations to Window Openings
At its meeting on December 20, 2023, the Historical Review Board approved the request to
modify COA#21-20 to include the alterations made to the three window openings in the east
elevation of Building 3/Old City Hall subject to the following conditions:
1. All conditions listed in COA#21-20 remain in effect.
2. This approval is only for the three openings in Building 3 as discussed in the Staff Report
dated December 20, 2023. No additional opening alterations—whether temporary or
permanent—are permitted with this approval.
3. All change orders relating to the exterior building envelope (including but not limited to
the roof, window/door openings, materials, repairs) shall be submitted for review by
Historic Preservation Staff prior to executing any change.

Issuance of the COA by the Historical Review Board does not imply approval of any applicable
City ordinances or discretionary approvals. Please attach this letter and the accompanying
attachments to any permit or Development Services Center submissions.
Part B: Removal of slate roof and replacement with synthetic slate
At its meeting on December 20, 2023, the Historical Review Board denied the request to modify
COA#21-20 to include removal of the historic slate roof from Building 3/01d City Hall and to
replace it with synthetic slate. The denial by the Historical Review Board is for the following
stated reasons:
• Building 3 is a contributing resource in the Virginia Beach Courthouse Village and
Municipal Center Historic District (a district listed in the National Register of Historic
Places) and is a contributing resource in the Courthouse Historic& Cultural District.
• Building 3 was designed after the 1934 reconstructed Governor's Palace in Williamsburg
and the steeply pitched, slate roof is a major architectural and character-defining
feature of Building 3. Slate roofs are also generally a character-defining feature of the
historic district.
• Synthetic slate is an inappropriate replacement material for natural slate per the
Secretary of the Interior's Standards and according to guidance from the National Park
Service and the Virginia Department of Historic Resources. Synthetic slate is not
recommended as a suitable replacement material on historic buildings given its
uniformity, ridged appearance, readily apparent difference in relief, and its potential to
fade and shrink over time.
• The roof of Building 3 is very promininent due to its height and proximity to the
sidewalk, and is therefore very visible.
• Building 3 has the structural capactiy to support a natural slate roof.
In its motion to deny the request to use synthetic slate, the board approved the use of natural
slate to be used on the building with the condition that the color of the slate be approved by
the Historical Review Board before it was installed.The board stated use of natural slate was
more important than an exact match to the original color.
The Historical Review Board's decision may be appealed to the Virginia Beach City Council. The
appeal process is outlined in Section 1303(c)(2) of the Zoning Ordinance. To initiate an appeal,
provide a letter(not an email) to the Director of the Department of Planning and Community
Development within 30 days of December 20, 2023. The letter must state the grounds for your
appeal.The address for the Director of Planning is:

STANDARDS FOR REHABILITATION & GUIDELINES
FOR REHABILITATING HISTORIC BUILDINGS
Rchabilitation
Rehabilitation is defined as the actor process of making possible a
compatible use for a property through repair,alterations,and additions
while preserving those portions or features which convey its historical,
cultural,or architectural values.
y
� II
75
REHABILITATION
Standards for Rehabilitation
1. A property will be used as it was historically or be given a new use that requires minimal
change to its distinctive materials,features,spaces and spatial relationships.
a. The historic character of a property will be retained and preserved.The removal of dis-
tinctive materials or alteration of features,spaces and spatial relationships that character-
ize a property will be avoided.
3. Each property will be recognized as a physical record of its time,place and use.Changes
that create a false sense of historical development,such as adding conjectural features or
elements from other historic properties,will not be undertaken.
4. Changes to a property that have acquired historic significance in their own right will be
retained and preserved.
5. Distinctive materials,features,finishes,and construction techniques or examples of
craftsmanship that characterize a property will be preserved.
6. Deteriorated historic features will be repaired rather than replaced.Where the severity
of deterioration requires replacement of a distinctive feature,the new feature will match
the old in design,color,texture and,where possible,materials.Replacement of missing
features will be substantiated by documentary and physical evidence.
7. Chemical or physical treatments,if appropriate,will be undertaken using the gentlest
means possible.Treatments that cause damage to historic materials will not be used.
8. Archeological resources will be protected and preserved in place.If such resources must
be disturbed,mitigation measures will be undertaken.
9. New additions,exterior alterations,or related new construction will not destroy historic
materials,features,and spatial relationships that characterize the property.The new work
will be differentiated from the old and will be compatible with the historic materials,fea-
tures,size,scale and proportion,and massing to protect the integrity of the property and
its environment.
io.New additions and adjacent or related new construction will be undertaken in such a
manner that,if removed in the future,the essential form and integrity of the historic
property and its environment would be unimpaired.
76
Sec. 1303. Certificates of appropriateness.
(a) Requirements of certificates of appropriateness. Except as provided in subsection(e),no building or
structure,including signs, within a Historic and Cultural District shall be constructed,altered,repaired,
relocated or demolished,and no building or other required permit authorizing such action, sh all be issued
unless and until the historical review board has issued a certificate of appropriateness therefor.A certificate
of appropriateness shall certify only that the requirements of this section have been met, and shall not
excuse compliance with any other applicable requirements of law.
(b) Materials to be submitted for review.
(1) Required plans,etc. The historical review board may require submission of any or all of the following
materials as part of an application: architectural plans, site plans, landscaping plans, proposed signs
with appropriate details as to location, size, number and character, proposed exterior lighting
arrangements, elevation drawings, indications as to construction materials, design of doors and
windows, ornamentation and colors,photographs or perspective drawings indicating visual
relationship to adjoining structures and spaces and such other exhibits and reports as are reasonably
necessary in making its determination to grant or deny the certificate of appropriateness.
(2) Application review. Applications for a certificate of appropriateness shall be submitted to the planning
director,who shall determine whether the proposed building or structure conforms to the
requirements of the city zoning ordinance.No application shall be deemed complete unless it contains
sufficient information for the planning director to make such determination.
(c) Grounds for issuance and denial of certificate of appropriateness.
(1) Issuance. The historical review board shall issue a certificate of appropriateness only if it finds that the
proposed building or structure is architecturally compatible with the historic landmarks, buildings or
structures in the district. In issuing its approval, the board may attach such reasonable conditions,
consistent with applicable city ordinances and development standards, as are necessary or appropriate
to ensure that the proposed building or structure meets the requirements of this section.
The board shall consider,in determining whether a proposed building or structure is architecturally
compatible with the historic landmarks, buildings and structures in the district,the following factors:
A. The conformity with the design, development standards, and criteria established for the district
pursuant to section 1301;
B. The appropriateness of the general overall design of the proposed building or structure in
relation to the architecture of other building or structures within the historic-cultural overlay
zoning district;
C. The extent to which the proposed building or structure will be harmonious or incompatible with
the other buildings or structures in the district;
D. The degree to which the proposed building or structure advances the Comprehensive Plan's
goals;
E. The impact of the proposed building or structure upon the historic context;
F. The degree to which the proposed building or structure conforms to applicable provisions of the

Re: Request to withdraw two (2) of the four (4) applications of BHC, LLC and Wycliffe
Presbyterian Church on the April 16, 2024 City Council Public Hearing Agenda: Request to
withdraw the pending Conditional Rezoning of 2.538 acres of the Church's excess property
from R-10 Residential District to Conditional 0-1 Office District along with the accompanying
Subdivision Variance for the same acreage(unnecessary due to Dominion Energy's agreement
to reduce the width of their power line easement)
Dear Honorable Mayor Dyer,Vice Mayor Wilson and Honorable Members of City Council:
On behalf of BHC, LLC and Wycliffe Presbyterian Church, I write to advise that my
clients request the withdrawal of the two (2) above referenced applications which are on
your Public Hearing Agenda next Tuesday evening (April 16th),
On Tuesday evening we will only be seeking to conditionally rezone the
easternmost 1.341 acre portion of the Church's excess property from Unconditional R-10
to Conditional R-10,along with a Subdivision Variance for one (1) lot, in order to permit
development of five (5) single family homes pursuant to a proffered plan which will not
involve any modification to the pond on the property.
The proffered Conditional Rezoning Application my clients are asking to
withdraw was essentially a downzoning which maintained a reasonable,but very limited
use of the western 2.538 acres of the Church's excess property similar to its use by the
Infant Stem Program for close to 30 years. This would have, for the most part, retained
the existing level of improvements and open space upon this larger portion of the
Church's excess property. However, the Civic League, many of the residents of the
adjacent neighborhood and others, have fervently expressed their opposition to this
proposal to both my clients, the Planning Commission and many of you over the past
number of weeks,
Mvu SUB, BOUMON,
AHMN&LEVY,P.C.
The Honorable Mayor Robert Dyer
Vice Mayor Rosemary Wilson
Honorable Members of City Council
April 11,2024
2 1 P a g e
As this process has unfolded, an opportunity has arisen in the form of another
church which has approached BHC, LLC with a significant interest in acquiring the 2.538
acres for its church. BHC,LLC is working with the leaders of this church and believes that
after BHC, LLC completes the acquisition of this excess property from Wycliffe
Presbyterian they will be able to reach an agreement with this church which will lead to
an application for a new Conditional Use Permit for a religious use on the 2.538 acres.
Such a new Conditional Use will replace the existing Use Permit on this portion of the
property and the underlying zoning will obviously remain unchanged.
With respect to the application by Wycliffe Presbyterian Church alone,requesting
to modify their 1966 "USE PERMIT", which I filed on their behalf on June 1, 2023 and
which City Council indefinitely deferred on November 21,2023,it is not a necessary part
of the BHC, LLC applications, nor is action upon it necessary or sought by Wycliffe
Presbyterian Church on Tuesday evening,if City Council approves the withdrawal of the
jointly filed Conditional Rezoning of the 2.538 acres to 0-1,and should City Council also
grant the jointly requested proffered R-10 Rezoning and Subdivision Variance on the
eastern 1.341 acre portion of Wycliffe Presbyterian Church's excess property. An
approval by City Council of the Conditional Rezoning to R-10 on the eastern portion of
the Church's excess parcel will remove any need for City Council to act upon the
indefinitely deferred application of Wycliffe Presbyterian Church and the 1966 Use
Permit for a Religious Use will remain in place and unchanged with respect to the western
2.538 acres of the Church's property.
There has been an obsessive level of concern which many interested individuals
have expressed that somehow, some way the Bishards are going to find a way to fill the
pond through which public (i.e.Virginia Beach) stormwater flow accounts for 75%of the
volume of water traversing or occupying the pond. To briefly address this concern and
in addition to the unequivocal assurances to the contrary given by BHC, LLC, filling this
pond would require that permits from all of the federal and state regulatory agencies
could be obtained and that the existing religious "USE PERMIT" could be removed or
amended by City Council to permit a"use"on the property which could conceivably make
such an effort and the costs of such a massively expensive endeavor worthwhile. Itwould
also necessitate the City of Virginia Beach, which has a 10 foot wide public stormwater
drainage easement, through the middle of this pond, vacating its existing easement and
accepting a replacement easement of at least 40 feet in width,which would be engineered
to extend the existing City storm drainage pipe across the eastern portion of the property,
across this ponded area to the adjacent stormwater BMP owned and/or maintained by
SULS, BOURDON,
M ANUR.N&LB Y,P.C.
The Honorable Mayor Robert Dyer
Vice Mayor Rosemary Wilson
Honorable Members of City Council
April 11,2024
3 111 1 g c.,
the City located west of the Church's property. Once again, the City has absolutely no
obligation whatsoever to approve such a change.
Additionally, both BHC, LLC and Wycliffe Presbyterian Church have offered and
continue to unambiguously offer to dedicate (i.e. GIVE) to the City an Impoundment
Easement, or similar easement over the entire pond as it exists today, through which
seventy-five percent (75%) of the volumes of stormwater which drain through it are
public, not private, stormwater. Such an Easement would give the City essentially
complete control over the pond.
In short, absolutely nothing which my clients are asking City Council to approve
on Tuesday will in any way aid or facilitate any present or future owners of the subject
property seeking approval to fill the existing pond on this 3.879 acre parcel of land.
Should any Council member have any questions or concerns which I may be able
to address, I would be happy to speak with you.
With best regards, I am
Very truly yours,
R. E wal d Bourdon,Jr.

Dear Mayor Dyer& Honorable Members of City Council:,
These tumultuous, highly publicized and unduly contentious applications of Wycliffe Church to be able to
sell its excess property have been blessed to have had the steady hand of Planner Marchelle Coleman to
calmly help everyone navigate the turbulent waters.There could not have been a better Planner for such a
challenge. We cannot commend her enough.
It was brought to our attention that there remains some angst in the community that with our pending
acquisition of the Church's excess parcel of property we will seek to fill the existing storm drainage
facility(pond/lake) located primarily on the Church's excess property. Please accept this letter to serve as
our company's(and all of our members'and affiliates'), unequivocal assurance and warranty that we do
not now, nor will we in the future,seek to obtain any permits, nor seek to modify of the City's stormwater
drainage easement through the drainage way/pond on the property for the purpose of filling or altering the
size of this stormwater facility/pond.
Given that close to seventy-five percent(75%)of the water traversing this facility/pond is public
stormwater flowing into the pond from the City's stormwater collection infrastructure in the Great Neck
Road right of way, it would completely put to rest the"filling"concerns of the nearby residents if the City
of Virginia Beach would simply accept our offer to dedicate an impoundment easement over this drainage
facility/pond.
The 2.53 acre portion of the excess property which we have sought to Conditionally Rezone to 0-1 and
are, in light of the opposition from many in the community, now asking City Council to allow us to
indefinitely defer or withdraw shall remain subject to the 1966 Conditional Use Permit for a religious use.
All we seek to do on April 16"' is obtain approval of the Conditional Rezoning of the eastern 1.341 acres
of the Church's excess land from R-10 to Conditional R-10 along with the Subdivision Variance for Lot 5.
We have been approached by a Church which has a very keen interest in acquiring the western 2.53 acre
portion of the property with the"A-frame"and we very much look forward to working with them to bring
BHC
4104 [folly Road,Virginia Beach,VA 23451 Office: (757)333—8750
forward a new Conditional Use Permit for the Church which they wish to create on what will be a 2.53
acre parcel.
After the April 16"' hearing and a favorable action by City Council on our proffered R-10 Rezoning and
Subdivision Variance, we will close on our purchase of the excess Church property and,as stated,our
plan is to join with the interested Church to pursue an application for a religious use of the 2.53 acre
western portion of the property which application will retain the pond and the existing pedestrian bridge.
Should any Council member have any questions or concerns with the contents of this letter; please do not
hesitate to contact me.
Witil,best 4V regards,

Great Neck Road & 2307 Millwood Road (GPINs 2408191170, 2408099309).
COUNCIL DISTRICT 8
MEETING DATE: April 16, 2024
■ Background:
The applicants are seeking a Modification of Conditions to remove a 3.88-acre
portion of the property from the Conditional Use Permit associated with the
Religious Use, two Conditional Rezoning requests to rezone an approximately
2.43-acre portion of the property from R-10 to Conditional 0-1 and an
approximately 1 .45-acre portion of the property from R-10 to Conditional R-10
Residential, as well as two Subdivision Variances, one for lot width for Parcel A
and another for lot width and street line frontage for Lot 5 within the proposed
development.
The proposed Conditional 0-1 parcel, as shown on the proffered conceptual plan,
shows the retention of the existing pond as well as the 3,522 square feet building
which would have the option to add an addition up to 500 square feet. 10-foot wide
landscape buffers are proposed between the proposed 0-1 parcel and the
adjacent residential properties in Great Neck Estates which includes the retention
of much of the existing vegetation as well as between the proposed 0-1 parcel and
the proposed Conditional R-10 parcel. The applicant has proffered the allowable
uses for the 0-1 parcel to include uses such as medical and dental offices,
professional offices such as legal or engineering offices, nonprofits, and religious
uses. A subdivision variance is required for the proposed 0-1 parcel since it does
not meet the 50-foot lot width requirement for the 0-1 District. While the actual lot
width is about 65 feet, since there is an existing 30-foot Dominion easement on the
property, which by our Ordinance cannot be used to meet the lot width requirement
since it is over 20-feet in width, the variance is required. The applicant is currently
working with Dominion to reduce the width of that easement to 20-feet or less in
Wycliffe Presbyterian Church & BHC, LLC
Page 2 of 7
order for the area to count towards the lot width requirement; however, that has
not be finalized.
The proposed Conditional R-10 parcel, consisting of approximately 1.45-acres will
be developed with a five-lot single family subdivision. As proffered, a 10-foot-wide
landscape buffer to include a six-foot tall privacy fence is proposed along both
Millwood Road and N. Great Neck Road. Since the Ordinance typically only allows
for a 4-foot-tall fence when within 30-feet of a public right-of-way, the applicant is
requesting a deviation to allow for a height of six feet. The placement of the
proposed fence was reviewed by Traffic Engineering, who confirmed that the
proposed fence would not impact the required sight distance from the Millwood
Road and N. Great Neck Road intersection. A subdivision variance is required for
the proposed Lot 5 since the lot does not meet the 80-foot lot width and 64-foot
street line frontage requirement. As shown, the lot width and street line frontage is
proposed at 20-feet for the flag lot. The flag lot will allow some frontage on the
public street in order for the public utility connections to be made from N. Great
Neck Road.
The Subdivision Ordinance requires 8% open space for proposed residential
subdivisions with lot sizes ranging from 10,000 sf to 14,999 sf. Based on the
proposed subdivision, 5,056 square feet of open space would be required to serve
the five proposed single-family lots. Section 4.5(b) of the Subdivision Regulations
allows for the open space requirement to either be waived or for other alternatives
to be considered when the required open space is less than half an acre and would
serve no useful public purpose. As such the applicant is requesting for Council to
allow for a cash in-lieu payment in place of the dedicated open space. If approved,
the amount of the required payment would be determined during the site plan
review process and the Department of Parks & Recreation would bring the final
terms of the agreement back to City Council, which would include the payment
amount, in accordance with the City's Cash in Lieu of Park Reservation Policy.
The proposed home styles provide high quality and attractive buildings with
materials consisting of high-quality architectural shingles, cementitious siding,
brick or masonry stone, or a combination of those materials along with high-quality
accents such as metal roofs and vinyl shutters. While a sign is not proposed for
the single-family subdivision, the applicant is proposing a freestanding monument
sign for the Conditional 0-1 Office zoned parcel. The sign will be no taller than five
feet in height and externally illuminated.
Access to the proposed development will be via a shared private road off Millwood
Road, serving both the proposed Conditional 0-1 Parcel and the five proposed
single-family dwellings. Per review by the Fire Marshal's office, the design of the
private road meets the requirements of the Virginia Beach Fire Prevention Policy.
A one-foot no ingress/egress easement is proposed along the entire frontage of N.
Great Neck Road, as access to the development will be from the private road.

■ Considerations:
Staff finds the proposal to be in keeping with the policies and goals set forth in the
Comprehensive Plan for the Suburban Area which focuses on creating and
maintaining great neighborhoods. The 0-1 Office District is intended to provide an
environment appropriate to office or institutional uses that are compatible with
residential uses which may adjoin and where public facilities are available to meet
their needs. The applicant is further proffering the allowable uses for the
Conditional 0-1 parcel to include uses such as medical/dental offices, professional
firms, nonprofits, and religious uses, all of which would be considered compatible
non-residential uses which would align with the Comprehensive Plan's general
recommendations for the Suburban Area. Furthermore, the proffered plan includes
the retention of the existing pond and much of the existing vegetation to limit the
physical impacts to the proposed 0-1 parcel. The reduction in the property
associated with the church will not adversely affect the surrounding area, as all
parking will continue to be on site and the church will continue to operate as it has
for the past several decades with the same building facilities, access, and parking
to accommodate parishioners and guests. Also, the redevelopment of the 3.88-
acre parcel provides an enhanced landscape buffer adjacent to existing
residentially zoned parcels and screening along the public rights-of-way to include
the retention of existing mature trees and vegetation, which further aligns with the
recommendations of the Comprehensive Plan. The majority of the components of
the Suburban Area recommendations for new development have been addressed
with this proposal to include streetscape plantings, enhanced buffering, open
space, pedestrian connectivity, and proposed house styles that enhance the
surrounding community.
Two letters of concern and 19 letters of opposition were received regarding these
requests. One speaker spoke in support of the application at the Planning
Commission hearing while ten spoke in opposition, stating concerns with the
proposed office use, increase in traffic, potential flooding, and stormwater.
Further details pertaining to the application, as well as Staff's evaluation, are
provided in the attached Staff Report.
■ Recommendation:
On March 13, 2024, the Planning Commission voted on a motion to recommend
approval of this request with a vote of 5 to 5. The vote failed, resulting in a
recommendation of denial.
Modification of Conditions
1. All previous conditions attached to the Conditional Use Permit approvals of
August 3, 1966, October 15, 1973, and December 19, 1988, as well as the
Modification of Conditions approval of December 12, 2000 shall remain in
effect.

Background of • . •
• The applicants are seeking a Modification of Conditions to remove a 3.88-acre portion of the property from the
Conditional Use Permit associated with the Religious Use,Conditional Rezoning requests to rezone an approximately
2.43-acre portion of the property from R-10 Residential District to Conditional 0-1 Office District to retain a 3,522
square foot building for office and an approximately 1.45-acre portion of the property from R-10 Residential District
to Conditional R-10 Residential District to develop a five lot single family subdivision at a density of 3.44 units per
acre, as well as Subdivision Variances to lot width for Parcel A and to lot width and street line frontage for Lot 5
within the proposed development.
• Within a half-mile radius of this section of the N. Great Neck corridor,there are a mix of zoning classifications to
include R-10 Residential, R-15 Residential, R-20 Residential,A-12 Apartment,A-18 Apartment,and B-2 Community
Business.
• Wycliffe Presbyterian Church has existed on these R-10 Residential District zoned parcels since the 1960s. A
Conditional Use Permit for a religious use was granted by City Council on August 3, 1966,and for a childcare
education center on December 19, 1988. Subsequently, in 2000,the City Council approved an approximately 4,000
square foot church addition.
• One of the applicants,Wycliffe Presbyterian Church, intends to remove an approximately 3.88-acre portion of the
property from the Conditional Use Permit for a religious use and sell that portion to the other applicant, BHC, LLC.
To remove the 3.88 acres from the Conditional Use Permit, a Modification of Conditions is required.
• The remaining 4.13 acres which includes the church facilities and parking,will remain under the church's ownership.
The remaining acreage exceeds the minimum three-acre lot area requirement for religious uses, as identified in
Section 240.1 of the Zoning Ordinance.
• BHC, LLC intends to subdivide the 3.88-acre portion of the site to create a 2.43-acre lot(Parcel A)to include the
existing 3,522 square foot A-frame building and the existing pond on the property, both of which are to be retained.
The applicant has proffered the allowable uses for the existing A-Frame building to include professional office uses
such as medical, real estate, insurance, legal,and non-profit offices, as well as religious uses. While the applicant
has proffered up to a 500 square foot addition to the building,the building shall remain substantially in conformance
with the exterior architectural features and appearance of the existing building.The eastern 1.45-acre portion of site
(Parcel R)will be developed with five single-family lots accessed via a shared private road from Millwood Road. The
private road will also provide access to proposed Parcel A.
• The City previously utilized the existing A-frame building to operate an Infant Program on the property.The program
was established in 1987 and began using the existing A-frame building in 1990. As stated previously,the applicant,
Friends of Infant Stimulation, Inc. was granted a Conditional Use Permit for a child care education center by City
Council on December 19, 1988.The City discontinued the use of the A-frame building on September 17, 2021. Since
that date,the program has operated at a location off Virginia Beach Boulevard,just west of Town Center.
• As depicted on the proffered rezoning exhibit, there are 22 existing parking spaces on the Conditional 0-1 property
(Parcel A), exceeding the maximum parking spaces allowed by six spaces. Since the parking lot will remain in its
current condition as it has been for several decades,the Planning Director is agreeable to the excess number of
spaces as allowed by Section 203(b)(9)of the Zoning Ordinance.
• A 10-foot-wide landscape buffer is provided between the adjacent residential properties along Millwood Road and
the proposed Conditional 0-1 property(Parcel A),as required by the City's Zoning Ordinance. Existing vegetation will
remain undisturbed between the R-20 Residential District parcels to the west to satisfy the buffering requirements.
Wycliffe Presbyterian Church & BHC, LLC
Agenda Items 5-9
Page 2
In addition, a 10-foot-wide landscape buffer with Category VI plantings and a six-foot tall wood privacy fence is also
proposed along N. Great Neck Road and Millwood Road.The applicant is requesting a height deviation in accordance
with Section 107(i) of the Zoning Ordinance,to allow for the installation of a six-foot tall fence instead of the four-
foot maximum height typically permitted within 30-feet of a public right-of-way.
• Per Section 4.5 of the Subdivision Regulations, 8%(approximately 5,056 square feet)of open space shall be reserved
to serve residents of residential developments with lots sizes ranging from 10,000 square feet to 14,999 square feet.
In instances where the resulting area to be reserved for recreational purposes would be less than one-half acre and
would serve no useful public purpose, Section 4.5(b) of the Subdivision Ordinance allows for the consideration of an
alternative to the dedication,to include a cash payment in lieu of the open space dedication, if it is mutually agreed
to by the city council and the developer. Since the open space dedication required for this proposal is less than
one-half acre,the applicant is requesting to provide a cash payment in lieu of the open space dedication.
• The proffered house styles for the five-lot subdivision depict dwellings with exterior materials to be comprised of
high-quality architectural shingles, cementitious siding(e.g., "HardiPlank"), brick or masonry stone,or a combination
of those materials along with high-quality accents such as metal roof and vinyl shutters.
• A freestanding monument style sign is proposed at the entrance of the shared private road for the Conditional 0-1
Office District zoned parcel (Parcel A).As proffered,the proposed cultured stone sign will be no taller than five feet
in height and externally illuminated. No sign is proposed for the single-family subdivision. The proposed freestanding
sign must meet the requirements of the Zoning Ordinance including the required landscaping around the base.
• Per the Code of Virginia Beach,Section 31-28(d),the City will not make refuse collections on private property.The
applicant is aware and will be providing private services for the pick-up and disposal of trash and solid waste for this
development.
• A Subdivision Variance is requested for the deficiency in lot width for Parcel A, and the lot width and street line
frontage for Lot 5,as shown in the table below.

Evaluation • • •
In Staff's opinion,these requests for a Modification of Conditions to remove approximately 3.88-acres from the
previously approved Conditional Use Permit,the Conditional Rezonings to rezone an approximately 2.43-acre portion
from R-10 Residential District to Conditional 0-1 Office District and an approximately 1.45-acre portion from R-10
Residential District to Conditional R-10 Residential District to allow for the construction of a five-lot single-family
subdivision, as well as Subdivision Variance requests to lot width for Parcel A and the lot width &street line frontage for
Lot 5 are acceptable.
The project falls within the Suburban Area.The request to remove 3.88-acre portion of the site from the Conditional Use
Permit while retaining 4.13 acres for the church is consistent with the policies and goals set forth in the Comprehensive
Plan for the Suburban Area, as the existing church complements the existing uses in the area and provides much needed
services to the surrounding community. In Staff's opinion,the reduction in the property associated with the church will
not adversely affect the surrounding area as all parking will continue to be met on the site,and the church will continue
to operate as it has for the past several decades with the same building facilities, access, and parking to accommodate
parishioners and guests.
In addition,the Comprehensive Plan recommends that developments within the Suburban Area focus on creating and
maintaining great neighborhoods.Achieving this goal reflects on the ability of developments to maintain and enhance
existing neighborhoods,to be compatible with surroundings, and provide quality and attractive buildings that provide
effective buffering and livability. In Staff's view,the proposed rezoning to Conditional 0-1 is acceptable since the 0-1
Office District, as stated in the City's Zoning Ordinance, is intended to provide an environment appropriate to office or
institutional character compatible with residential uses. Staff is of the opinion that the existing office building is a low
intensity use that is compatible with the surrounding residential area. While the existing 3,522 square foot building
could be expanded up to an additional 500 square feet,the building will remain substantially in conformance with the
exterior architectural features and appearance of the existing building, as proffered. As such the building will remain,
largely unchanged,as it has on the site for decades. Furthermore,the applicant has voluntarily selected uses that can
operate within the office building that are also compatible with the surrounding neighborhood as detailed in Proffer 3.
The site will be enhanced with a 10-foot-wide landscape buffer to screen the use from the adjacent residential
properties to the north and northwest,to include the retention of existing mature trees and vegetation,which aligns
Wycliffe Presbyterian Church& BHC, LLC
Agenda Items 5-9
Page 4
with the recommendations of the Comprehensive Plan. Also,the five-lot subdivision is consistent with the
Comprehensive Plan's land use policies for the Suburban Area in creating great neighborhoods.The conditional rezoning
of the property allows Staff to review the proposed proffered plans and elevations to ensure compatibility with the
Comprehensive Plan for this area. In Staff's opinion,the proposed homes are compatible with the neighboring
properties and provides quality and attractive home styles that enhance the existing character of the surrounding
community.The development also provides additional landscaping and screening along the public right-of ways.
Per Section 201 of the Zoning Ordinance, Walls and fences may project into or enclose any part of any yard; provided,
however, that any fence that projects into or encloses a required front yard shall not exceed a height of four(4)feet. As
depicted on the proffered rezoning exhibit, a six-foot-tall wood privacy fence is proposed along the front yard for the
proposed lots, which are along N. Great Neck Road and Millwood Road. The applicant is requesting that the increase in
the height of the fence be addressed through the provisions of Section 107(i), which states the following:
The City Council may,for good cause shown and upon a finding that there will be no significant detrimental effects
on surrounding properties, accept proffered conditions reasonably deviating from the setback, lot coverage,
landscaping and minimum lot area requirements and height restrictions... otherwise applicable to the proposed
development. No such deviation shall be in conflict with the applicable provisions of the Comprehensive Plan.
In Staff's view,the fencing and evergreen plantings will provide an adequate streetscape buffer along the public right-of-
ways and will not cause any impact to line of sight,as it meets the 775-foot sight distance requirement. Furthermore,the
height of the fence is consistent with the fence height on the corner lot in the subdivision across N. Great Neck Road. As
such,Staff is supportive of the deviation request.
It is the opinion of the city's Traffic Engineering Staff that the traffic generated by the proposed development will result
in 50 average daily trips for the five-lot single-family subdivision and 46 average daily trips for the office use.According to
Public Works staff,N.Great Neck Road and Millwood Road have adequate capacity to support the proposed development.
A one-foot no ingress-egress easement will be required along N. Great Neck Road with all future access to be from
Millwood Road. The existing entrance along Millwood Road will remain in its current location, as approved by Traffic
Engineering since it is located at the farthest point from the intersection of N. Great Neck Road and Millwood Road.
However,the existing entrance will be widened,as depicted on the proffered plan,to accommodate emergency vehicles.
The proffered rezoning exhibit has been reviewed by the Fire Marshal's Office and they have agreed that the dimensions
of the shared private access road is sufficient and allows them to adequately service both properties,the Conditional 0-
1 parcel as well as the Conditional R-10 lots. To ensure adequate emergency access,the applicant has indicated that
they will remove Proffer 4 which states "When the Property is developed,on street parking within the community shall
be restricted to one(1)side of the street" between Planning Commission and City Council to ensure that the shared
access road is in full compliance with the Virginia Beach Fire Prevention Policy.
Due to existing recorded easements on site and the requirement to exclude such area,Parcel A does not meet the required
50-foot lot width required for 0-1 Office District zoned parcels and Lot 5 does not meet the required 80-foot lot width and
64-foot street line frontage for properties zoned R-10 Residential District. As such, a Subdivision Variance requests are
required.
Section 9.3 of the Subdivision Regulations states:
No variance shall be authorized by the Council unless it finds that:
A. Strict application of the ordinance would produce undue hardship.
B. The authorization of the variance will not be of substantial detriment to adjacent property, and the
character of the neighborhood will not be adversely affected.
C. The problem involved is not of so general or recurring a nature as to make reasonably practicable the
formulation of general regulations to be adopted as an amendment to the ordinance.
Wycliffe Presbyterian Church & BHC, LLC
Agenda Items 5-9
Page 5
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.
Staff finds the variance requests to be compliant with the conditions of Section 9.3. Parcel A has 80 feet of lot frontage
along Millwood Road. Per Section 802 of the Zoning Ordinance,the minimum lot width required in the 0-1 Office District
is 50 feet, measured at the 30-foot front yard setback.The lot width for this lot is 65.2 feet; however,there is an existing
30-foot-wide Dominion Virginia Power Easement running along Parcel A,which cannot be counted towards the
minimum lot width requirement, resulting in a lot width of 35.2 feet,which creates a deficit of 14.8 feet. Since
easements 20-feet or less in width can be counted towards the lot width requirement,the applicant has been working
with Dominion Virginia Power to vacate 10 feet of the 30-foot easement on the property. However, since this has not
been finalized,the Subdivision Variance is required. In addition, Lot 5 is depicted as a reverse flag lot with 20 feet of lot
width and 20-foot street line frontage, where an 80-foot lot width and 64-foot street line frontage is required.The
applicant is requesting the variance to Lot 5 to preserve,to the greatest extent possible,the western portion of the site,
including the existing pond,to allow for it to remain in its existing condition.As such,Staff is supportive of these
requests.
Prior to development, all improvements that encroach into an existing public drainage or public utility easement on the
property must be reviewed by Public Works/Real Estate through the Encroachment Agreement review process. As
depicted on the proffered plan, it appears that the shared private road and fencing will encroach into these public
easements. As noted in Condition 2 of the Subdivision Variance requests,an Encroachment Agreement shall be
approved by Public Works/Real Estate, prior to the approval of the site plan, construction plan, and subdivision plat for
this development.
Regarding the proposed single-family subdivision, information provided by the Virginia Beach City Public School(VBCPS)
Staff indicates that the increase in student enrollment will be minimal with a total of three students,one student for
each level of education: elementary, middle,and high school.The increase in student population will be below
maximum occupancy levels.There is an existing school bus stop adjacent to this development, at the corner of Millwood
Road and Selden Street,to serve students of the Great Neck Estates neighborhood. According to VBCPS staff, nine
students are picked up at this stop in the morning and seven are dropped off in the afternoon. Given this and the
limited number of school-aged children anticipated with the proposed residential development,VBCPS stated they did
not have any concerns with this development in relation to the existing school bus stop location.They did note that this
is the current location of the existing bus stop and it is subject to change from year to year,as student ridership counts
change. Based on this,the proposal is not expected to negatively impact the school population.
This site is located in the Chesapeake Bay watershed and a narrative was provided by the applicant that indicates the
intention to address water quality and quantity through the pond on the property. If additional treatment is needed,
infiltration systems, bioretention planting beds, or underground storage facilities will be installed by the applicant. The
pond is situated almost entirely on the proposed Conditional 0-1 parcel (Parcel A). A 10-foot public drainage easement
running through the pond was dedicated to the City by subdivision plat(M.B. 122 PG. 40) and was acquired on
9/29/1977 when the plat was recorded.The City's existing easement allows the City to maintain water flow through the
pond and into Lake Conrad#3.Staff support of the application does not constitute an agreement by the City to assume
additional maintenance responsibilities for the pond.The pond is handling drainage for the church and will continue to
do so. It is the opinion of Staff that all future maintenance of the pond shall be the responsibility of the property owners
of the proposed Conditional 0-1 parcel and the church, except for the City's discretionary maintenance of the flow of
water through its existing easement.An in-depth review of the stormwater management strategy will occur during the
Wycliffe Presbyterian Church & BHC, LLC
Agenda Items 5-9
Page 6
site plan review process to ensure compliance with all stormwater regulations and that no negative impacts will occur
upstream or downstream as a result of this development.
Based on these considerations above,Staff recommends approval of the request subject to the conditions and proffers
below.

Comprehensive Plan Recommendations
The Comprehensive Plan identifies this site as being located within the Suburban Area.The general planning principles
for the Suburban Area focus on creating and maintaining great neighborhoods through stability and sustainability;
protecting and enhancing open spaces and places of cultural and historical significance; and creating and maintaining a
transportation system that provides connectivity and mobility. Achieving these goals requires that all land use activities
either maintain or enhance the existing neighborhood through compatibility with surroundings, quality and
attractiveness of site and buildings, improved mobility, environmental responsibility, livability, and effective buffering
with respect to type, size, intensity, and relationship to the surrounding uses. Overall,the proposal is consistent with the
Comprehensive Plan's recommendations for this area.
Natural & Cultural Resources Impacts
The site is located in the Chesapeake Bay watershed.The site is wooded with mature trees and shrubs.The impervious
area of the site includes the church,several accessory buildings, and parking areas.The site also contains a freshwater
pond.
The pond is considered non-tidal wetlands and does not fall under the jurisdiction of City Code,Appendix A,Article 14—
Wetlands Zoning Ordinance.Vegetated wetlands are defined in the city's Wetland Zoning Ordinance as lands lying
between and contiguous to mean low water and an elevation above mean low water equal to the factor one and one-

half(1%)times the mean tide range at the site of the proposed project in the City of Virginia Beach.The tidal elevation
based off NAVD 88 datum for this portion of the Lynnhaven is as follows: Mean Low Water(MLW) elevation:-1.2,Tidal
Range elevation: 1.9, Mean High Water(MHW):0.7. While this area is classified as a lake habitat wetland on the U.S.
Fish &Wildlife Service, National Wetland mapper,the elevations limit the local Wetlands Board jurisdiction, as described
in the city's Wetland Zoning Ordinance from MLW to an elevation of 1.7 feet (1%times the mean tide range).

RECOMMENDED FOR DENIAL
Madam Clerk: The next item on the agenda, is agenda items number five through nine.
Wycliffe Presbyterian Church, and BHC, LLC for a modification of conditions for
Conditional Rezoning R-10 Residential to Conditional 0-1 Office, and R-10 Residential
to Conditional R-10, and Subdivision Variants of Section 4.413 of the Subdivision
Regulations for Parcel A, Section 4.413 of the Subdivision Regulations for Lot 5 at 1445
North Great Neck Road, and 2307 Millwood in District 8.
Ms. Cuellar: Thank you.
Mr. Bourdon: Madam Chair, I've provided the clerk with handouts that I would like you all
to each have prior to beginning the presentation. I'd like for you all to have the handouts
before we start the presentation. Madam Chair, we've got two speakers who I will call up
after I make the presentation, who are pastor, and member of the church, who will also
be speaking, but not for 10 minutes, promise. One of the handouts is just to highlight a
copy of the 0-1 zoning district, and the legislative intent, and then the heavier one are a
series of examples of office and commercial use located as is stated on the cover sheet
and, it's not an exhaustive list either of offices and commercial uses in neighborhoods
and at the entrances, sharing entrances with residential neighborhoods.
For the record, my name is Eddie Bourdon. I'm a Virginia Beach attorney, and I'm here
today represent Wycliffe Presbyterian Church. I represent along with the Bishard
Companies on this application today involving this 3.9 acre property. Existing property
owned by Wycliffe Presbyterian Church, which is zoned Unconditional R-10 Residential
District. In August of 1966, the third year, our City of Virginia Beach existed, the church
sought and received a use permit for religious use from the new City Council on what
were then its three contiguous parcels on a two lane Great Neck Road containing over
8.5 acres of land. That use permit did not contain any conditions attached to it
whatsoever, and it wasn't even called a religious use permit, just a use permit, but it was
for religious use.
In July of 1973, the City purchased the Wycliffe, from Wycliffe 2000 square feet fronting
on Millwood Road, a parcel it carved out for the church from the church for its use. There
were no church facilities on that 2,000 square foot parcel nor any conditions contained
that required any use permit to be modified and none was. The property was zoned RS-
3, IRS, which were 10,000 square foot lots at that time, but they didn't buy it to build a
house on it, the City didn't. In January of 1976, the City acquired by condemnation, a
drainage easement across the northeastern portion of the Wycliffe property as part of the
widening of Great Neck Road to six lanes.
Through that stormwater transmission pipe on the Wycliffe property, public stormwater
from Great Neck Road is collected over 48 acres of developed property, and is to the
north, and the east, and the south, and is dumped through that pipe, into the pond on the
church's property. You all heard about that, some of it, what I've said this morning in the
informal session. A 76% of the stormwater that is draining into that pond, is public water
coming from offsite? A 24% is coming from the Wycliffe's property and an office building
directly to the south that drains through the Wycliffe's property. The pond, I contend,
does serve a purpose because there's a lot of property in that 48 acres. Not the majority
anymore because a lot of it's redeveloped, but a lot of property that was developed before
there were any stormwater regulations whatsoever.
So, I do contend, although I'm not going to stand here, and we're not going to get into a
big argument about I heard what L. J. Hanson said this morning, and said about the weir
and things of that nature, but I do think while there probably is tons of capacity in the
larger lake the City owns, I would suggest that this lake or pond is in fact providing some
stormwater benefits to the City, and not just to the church or to the property that we are
here to talk about today. In 1988, Friends of Infant Stimulus, Inc. applied for and was
granted a conditional use permit on Wycliffe's Northern Parcel for a childcare education
center, which approved two additions to the A-frame building.
One that was built, one that never was, and for the use of that building as a child care
education center. The sanctuary, that was once in the chapel. The chapel was once a
sanctuary. The new sanctuary was built in 1984 and this former small chapel had no
longer any utilization needed by Wycliffe. In 1990, the child care education center
opened, and operated until September of 2021. That property has not been used for
religious purpose since 1990. The church has ministered and operated on the
southernmost parcel of its property containing 4.123 acres of land under its 1966 use
permit with no conditions. Any modification to that use permit was made one time in 2000
to construct a 4,000 square foot addition for classrooms, and office adjacent to the
sanctuary.
There is no required church parking nor building which has been utilized for religious use
on this excess 3.9 acre parcel upon which there is a CUP for a child care education center
granted in 1988, and operated until 2021 for which the only condition attached was for
stormwater management. Now, this morning, Marchelle Coleman and Caitlyn Alcock did
a wonderful job of explaining the application in terms of the different aspects of it, but after
what has transpired previously the church and the Bishard's have come up with a way to
make sure that pond that is cherished by a number of people remains as it is, and to make
it very clear, these proffers make it clear that you cannot fill it without going through the
same process, you can't alter it significantly without going through this process, only a
significant alteration would be to fill it, and the taking unconditional R-10 zoning, and
zoning it conditional R-10 means you what you see is what you get, and not some other
configuration or different way to develop the property by-right under the R-10 zoning that
exists on this property today.
Now, the subdivision variances the one on parcel A, the parcel that's proposed to be
conditionally rezoned to 0-1, that subdivision variance will not, we're going to ask that it
be approved today, but we already have a letter from Dominion Power. The only reason,
as Ms. Alcock and Ms. Coleman explained, the only reason that's on here is that way
back in the 60s, the, the church gave Virginia Power a 30-foot easement across their
property, which really just serves the church, and they have agreed to reduce that width
to 15 feet, and also the line will be buried, so that there will no longer be an overhead line,
but we've got to get the I's dotted and the T's crossed, but we're 99.9% certain that, by
the time we get to Council, this variance for Parcel A for the subdivision variance will not
be necessary.
The other subdivision variances, again, just so we can get utilities into Lot 5 from Great
Neck Road, and it's a common practice, and it's, you know, been something that's been,
I've done it many times over the years in similar circumstances, as have others. The 0-
1 zoning district, I provided you all with a handout that's, and I'll quote from it, the 0-1
office district was set up to provide an environment appropriate to offices compatible with
residential uses that may adjoin it. It's the least dense or least problematic type of offices,
and we have proffered a very limited list from the list that is allowed, including no
conditional use options as well.
The church attempted to listen to what some of the complaints were, and we're keeping
the building, the additional 500 square feet is pretty much what was approved, could have
been, and could have been built back in 1990, but that's not to say that it would have
been at the other end of the A frame, but the intent is to be in a position to possibly create
an entrance to the building that might be more effective than what exists there today, but
not to take the building down, not to build 500 square feet, you're not going to build much
in anyway in 500 square feet. This is the handout that I provided you. I hope you'll take
a look at that. There are a series of examples, including one that a gap wedge from the
church's property would hit right down the street to the south.
There's also Kenstock, the entrance to Kenstock, the Lynnhaven Colony examples, Little
Neck examples. Holly Road example across the residential street from, Extremely
expensive homes that are perfectly fine in a neighborhood, and none of them are on the
property that this is on with the amount of open area on this property, that's a 2 point
some odd acre parcel. It just, it's anyway, it's a very, it's a keeping things away. They've
always been and that's what I listened to from the opposition, and you all listened to from
the opposition previously. So all these do need to be voted on together because it's a
package deal to try to again make sure that the lake doesn't get filled and to keep the A
frame as it is, and that's the purpose why we're here. I think staffs recommendation is
appropriate. It should be approved in my opinion. I don't know of any legitimate reason
why it shouldn't be, and I'll be happy to answer any questions.
Ms. Cuellar: Are there any questions from the commissioners for Mr. Bourdon?
Mr. Bourdon: Okay. I'd like to have David Gangwer come up and followed by Pastor.
Ms. Cuellar: Could you please state your name for the record?
Mr. Gangwer: I am David Gangwer, one of the trustees of Wycliffe's Presbyterian. Madam
Chair, Mr. Vice-Chair, Commissioners, as a trustee, I represent the entire congregation,
and the Presbyterian Church, we have what we refer to as submittal to the brethren, the
majority rules. The vote was taken, and what, regardless of my personal view, I'm before
you to represent the church, and I've been a member there for the past 30 of the past 60
years that the church has been in existence, raised my children there, and you may know
me better as the zip tie man, those who looked at the property, and saw the signs and
complaints that they may not have been up.
Well, I got the Costco size bag of zip ties, and put extra stakes down so that the
community would be informed. The sad truth is the church is a business. We'd all like to
think that we just go to church, put our money in the plate, go home, God's going to take
care of us. But in the whole world, this claim was staked 60 years ago when Great Neck
Road was a bucolic rolling, maybe not so rolling two lane road. Now we look at it. In our
inflationary times,this is all pre COVID, in 2018, the church's board looked at all the assets
they had, looked at the vision and mission that we had for the church, and realized this
stuff doesn't come free.
So, of the assets that we have, in a declining membership base where some elder, big
givers were passing away, unfortunately, we knew that for the viability of the church,
something had to happen. So in our resources, we have this huge claim that was staked
60 years ago. All we ask is that the City unencumber us so that we can take some of that
asset. We still want to be the bright shining light in the Great Neck Corridor, but it takes
money. There are half-truths and innuendos out there that this is about greed and about
things that simply aren't true. I'm not a Facebook guy, so I can't address them specifically,
but I can share with you, as the trustee, that we need your help. And to that end, my wife
is on a bigger area, Tidewater Area Committee of the Presbyterian Church. This
afternoon, she's signing on the papers of a church closure. Wycliffe is not going to be
that church, but we need your help in taking up the slack from those churches who are
folding and whose properties are being cashiered. Thank you very much.
Ms. Cuellar: Before you leave, are there any questions from the commissioners? Thank
you very much for being here.
Pastor Bug: Good afternoon. I am the Reverend Dr. Garrett Bug. It is my pleasure to
speak with you today. I've been at Wycliffe Presbyterian Church since about 2013, so
I'm fairly new to Virginia Beach. But in that time, there have been a lot of changes, both
in our church, in this fair city, nationally, and globally. One of the things that has not
changed is the good work of ministry that has been going on for over 60 years at Wycliffe
Presbyterian Church. It began as a mission congregation in 1963, and met at John B.
Dye School. In 1966, one of our charter members discovered a property for sale at 1445
North Great Neck Road, and petitioned the Presbytery of Norfolk to assist in purchasing
the property.
That property was chosen because of its size, Wycliffe could grow on that property, and
Wycliffe did grow. When I came to Wycliffe, I looked out over a congregation whose
average age pushed 80. 1 think it was about 78. Over these past years, we have lowered
that average age to about 67. Also in those 10 years, about 70 members of our
congregation have died. The story is not uncommon to you, if you are part of a religious
institution, and as trustee Gangwer just said, we at Wycliffe have no desire to become a
statistic. Through our commitment to the mission of making disciples for Jesus Christ,
we have brought in, over these past 10 and a half years or so, 75 new members, crossing
the threshold to net growth. We accomplished this with one full-time pastor, one full-time
administrator, and one congregation of dedicated people, but we have come now to this
point today, because we intend to continue our mission for Christ into the future.
We love people. We love our planet. We love our neighbors. We are not a church that
looks so longingly to the past that we can't plan, and think about the future. We recognize
that if we are going to strengthen our ministry for the future, we would need to fund
additional staff. To make our ministries more robust, and to that end, we've hired an
associate pastor. We also recognize that more time and energy was being required to
maintain the northern part of our property, which we have not made excellent and frequent
use of as a church since about 1990. In addition, the church has a particular liability with
the stormwater retention facility, Lake Conrad 11. In these past few years, we've
recognized that our church property was also being used apparently very frequently by
our neighbors, which is great. We want to be a good neighbor. At least it was great, until
it became seen as an entitlement, and not a kindness. I am a pastor, and I minister both
to the members of our church, the majority who voted to proceed with this sale in October
of 2021, and with those who did not vote to proceed with the sale.
I minister to those church members who live in the Great Neck Estates community to our
north. Some of whom, again, are in favor, and some of whom are not. But the church is
hopeful that today, you will vote in favor of this application, and to all of us engaging in
this civic process, I leave these words of Paul, "Love one another with mutual affection,
outdo one another in showing honor, contribute to the needs of the Saints, extend
hospitality to strangers. Bless those who persecute you. Bless and do not curse. Rejoice
with those who rejoice. Weep with those who weep. Live in harmony with one another,
if it is possible, so far as it depends on you. Live peaceably with all." Thank you.
Ms. Cuellar: Thank you, Pastor Bug. Commissioners, any questions for him? Thank
you, and thank you for the work that you're doing in our community. Madam Clerk, are
there any speakers for this item?
Madam Clerk: Yeah, we have quite a few. I'm going to start with Derek Copeland,
followed by Kim Johnson.
Ms. Cuellar: Madam Speaker, how many speakers do we have signed up?
Madam Clerk: I believe it's 9 or 10.
Ms. Cuellar: Thank you very much.
Mr. Sully: Hello, I'm Ryan Sully. I asked Derek if I can hop in there first. Derek is a great
guy, and he's awesome with facts and statistics. I'm going to ask you guys to hear me
from a slightly different approach possibly, but Derek is also part of our community, Great
Neck Estates, as am 1. First off, I'm Ryan Sully. I am part of the Great Neck Lakes
Association, which represents 100 homes that back up to Great Neck Lake, which is
called Conrad 3, as well as Conrad 1 and 2. Conrad 2 is the one that you all decided to
vote against, and not have filled in, which I'm going to get to that huge thank you there in
a moment.
I have been Great Neck Lakes Association President for the past 3.5 years, since we first
got wind of the Bishard project with Wycliffe, and I live on Millwood Road which is the
proposed area where the new development is going to be right there at the neighborhood
entrance. I have to say that we as a community of the Lakes Association, and myself as
living on the street, we have many, many, many concerns. Church, Reverend Bug, we
understand that churches go through hardships, and we're never against that, and we're
just here to show you guys that we also care about our community, and what our
community is turning to.
Showing the love for the neighborhood would be defined another way, I believe, and if
selling this property, I have to ask, is that going to be the long-term solution or is that just
going to be a short-term band aid for the good of the church. We want to be with the
church in this decision, but we can't see our neighborhood get turned into something that
we did not originally sign up for. Eddie, I loved hearing you say, and speak the words
today that the Lake Conrad 2 does serve a purpose because we're here a year ago in
August wanting to fill in that very Lake, and then it didn't serve a purpose, or was spoken.
In everything that Eddie said, I understand that the 76% runoff is coming from the other
side of Great Neck Road, and 24% from the Wycliffe property, but we're trending in the
wrong direction. We keep on, you know, saying, oh, it's only a little bit of land, and it's
only a little bit more runoff and it's, you know, we keep on trending in the wrong way.
Like, when is it gonna stop? I think by a show of people that are here today in opposition
of this development, I would like you guys just to stand up for a moment. Please stand
up. Thank you, and I'm not sure if everybody here is signed up to speak, but you could
see that an overwhelming amount of people in this courtroom today are here because
they care. If they do decide to speak, you'll hear their heartfelt stories about why we don't
want this change to go through. So let me backtrack up to the up to the top again —
Ms. Cuellar: You have three minutes and the red light.
Mr. Sully: I'm sorry, I thought I was told, I had 10.
Ms. Cuellar: I just take clarification with the clerk, If I may.
Madam Clerk: He didn't specify that he was representing a group when signing up.
Mr. Sully: Yeah, it's a Great Neck Estates.
Ms. Cuellar: You have seven more minutes.
Mr. Sully: Okay, thank you so much.
Ms. Cuellar: Thank you. I just wanted clarification with the buttons.
Mr. Sully: But like I said, we do have our concerns. Like our concern as a Lake
Association President, and how it's going to affect the lake. I have concerns as an
individual. Just obviously, I'm not one for change in myself. To be honest, I just don't
want to see five homes built, you know. All of those aside the deeper concern, is what
the hardest I think, as we're promised that this would, you know, be a religious use permit
when it first came in to the neighborhood, and that was be rezoned for residential, and
now it is being asked to be rezoned for office.
Again, I ask where does this stop, and I know that we have been told, and is it going to
remain exact— once it rezoned for office, when is the next step going to be taken for this
three story possible office building gonna be built where people are coming all the time.
It's just in the progression of things. This is where things are trending, and I know we've
been promised otherwise, but again, you see where I'm going with this. Back in August,
I never got the chance to see you guys again for voting in our favor. So, thank you for
listening to us on that day, on August 9th. It was the most empowering moment, I've ever
been a part of as a community member.
To come down here and you know, we're all nervous and we're just common folk. I'm a
school teacher, took off one of my wellness days for today, just to kind of be here. And,
you know, to have this voice heard, I just, I never thought it was possible. So the fact that
we're even here again today, I'm truly appreciative to all you guys, and for being able to
just hear what we're having to say and taking the time and the patience to hear us. Thank
you for that. When we moved in, I was, it was just me and my wife, and now I have a
five-year-old Braylon, and now I have a two-year-old Collins, and that brings me to my
next point about this office rezoning.
Once you're a parent, there's nothing that's going to stop you from speaking up for your
kids. As I see them playing in our yard, as they get older, they're learning to ride their
bikes down the street. It brings me great fear and makes me very upset, that somebody
with the conscious to put in an office building in our neighborhood could be allowed. We
all know that the type of offices being allotted, you know, are smaller, but still there's
dentists appointments. There's office doctors' visits. These are the potential of things
that are to come, and to think about my child entering that intersection of that area is just
heartbreaking.
There's a lot of facts out there about the flooding issues, the runoff, the nutrient pollution
that's going to be added to the lake, impermeable surfaces going up. Yes, those are
terrible things for the environment, and terrible things to the lake, but there is no doubt
that I speak on behalf of every father in that neighborhood, and maybe every father in this
community, that if you let one extra car come down there speeding, recklessly driving,
missing the turn, whatever it is, we don't want one extra let alone, 50-100, whatever the
potential could be, I don't think there's anybody would disagree with they don't want that
to happen, and when you move into a neighborhood that does not have office zoning,
and then you create office zoning, there's just something not right about that.
I hope you guys can see that point. So if you guys can please just hear us out today, and
hear some of the facts, and the issues, and the concerns that our neighbors have, we
would truly appreciate that. We thank you for your time today.
Ms. Cuellar: Thank you, Mr. Sully. Are there any questions? The next speaker.
Madam Clerk: Derek Copeland followed by Kim Johnson.
Mr. Copeland: Hi, thank you for hearing us speak today. My name is Derek
Copeland. I'm the President of the Great Neck Civic League, and today I want to speak
on behalf of the voice of the members of our community of Great Neck Estates. I've
spoken with many of them, and kind of they can't all be here today. You're going to hear
from those that have made it. They're going to have a lot of information to share, facts,
concerns, and I hope that you just take a moment to listen to what all they have to say.
But I want to keep it simple today and what we're focused on.
We're here for a civic discussion, you know, and that just means that everyone, everyone
can speak their concerns, if there's difference of opinions, and a vote has to be made at
the end of the day, or recommendation has been made at the end of the day. That is
great, and I applaud that. We, you know, we have the ability to do that, and the ability to
build homes on the church's land that they want to sell is by-right of what it's stated in the
law, it's by-right, and while there's a lot of concern on that development of what that means
to the flood mitigation system, what that means to the community at-large, and flooding
concerns is always a major issue.
I think there's a lot of opposition that we've had for what does that mean previously
wanting to fill in the lake. I want to focus on what I believe is the most important topic
here today that's in this vote, and that is the rezoning to 0-1 office space. That is
something that is the target of this discussion. It cannot happen in a suburban area or
community where we've moved there to have a quiet neighborhood. There's plenty of
workspace in the City of Virginia Beach to go to work, where there's traffic, where there's
office. This is a neighborhood.
This is where we go to live when we get off of work, where we go to have community
events, and neighborhood working with each other, and getting to know each other. This
is our home. This isn't a business decision for us. This isn't a, you know, I could make
money. If this doesn't work out, I can go somewhere else to the next investment. This is
our home. The decision that you make today to recommend, or not recommend will affect
us the rest of our lives. The only choice we have is to move. If we don't like the end result
of what office space could do to this community. We are told that the office space will
result in minimal changes.
We're told that the office space has conditions set on it to reduce what kind of offices, and
businesses run out of there, but there are no promises that anyone can guarantee in the
future. For the developer, when this is done, they move on. For us? When the decision
is done, and things do go in the wrong direction, we don't get to go anywhere. We will
continue to have to work with that impact, and how it affects our community, our
neighborhoods, our streets. There is, I'm sure you've seen some of the information. This
is the projected flyer image of what they want to do to the neighborhood to build 5 homes.
On here, there's a picture of at the entrance to the new road for the development of the
office space and homes, there's a sign that's going to be put there.
It is a 5 feet tall, 8 feet wide sign. I'm 6 feet tall, so we're talking about a sign about 5 feet
tall, 8 feet foot wide that is going to go inside of our neighborhood community. Now, most
children, they're under 4 feet. So you are putting a 5 feet tall, 8 feet wide sign that is going
to be something that a child standing behind could be unseen by oncoming traffic. We're
talking about children here that, you know, may not have the best decision making skills.
So does that mean that, "Hey, I'm sorry, neighborhood, we just don't let your kids go play
over there." I know it's our community. I know it's our neighborhood, our home, but that's
a dangerous area.
Not only is there oncoming potential traffic that we can't foresee, dentists appointments
running late to their appointment. I know that for me, I'm not the best with time
management when it comes to my dentist appointments. I might be running late. I might
be distracted. I might miss a turn following Google, and if I miss it, where am I going?
I'm going further down into the neighborhood community to make a U-turn in someone's
driveway. This is our major concern. We do have a vote within our community, within
our civic league. We unanimously voted that we oppose the use of office space being
added into our entrance. Yes, we have concerns of five homes being built, and what that
means and what that does to open space.
That's what we're here today to voice differences of opinions. Yes, we, you know, we
would like to see that be used for other purposes. But no, you cannot ask us to say office
space is okay. It was stated before that, well, we came to you with an alternative. What
if we filled in the Lake, and built 10 homes? You didn't like that. So you like nothing
because we've given you a second option, which is slightly less bad than the first. Filling
in an entire lake, Lake Conrad 2 is not good, and it wasn't recommended, and here the
alternative of replanting a new option is to, well, let's put office space there instead.
We're told that we're not being very, we're one-sided. We're just saying no to everything.
We're not. We have not been presented with an option that actually outreaches what
would benefit the neighborhood. We're told this is a neighborhood community, and that
the church, the developers want to partner with us. All I've heard is what they want to do
and how do you feel about it, and if you didn't like our first option, well, here's our second.
If you don't like our second option, you must like nothing. That is not true, but we have
unanimously agreed that we do not want to see office space in our neighborhood going
through our neighborhood.
Is there an option to, you know, has the developer presented an option to build a road off
of Great Neck to office space? I don't know. I just know that the current proposed plan
is what we're primarily here focused on. You're going to hear a lot of other information
today from my neighborhood community members, from my friends, and that are in the
neighborhood, but I'm speaking on behalf of the vote, and the community at-large who
unanimously said we cannot see office spaces through our neighborhood. Thank you
very much.
Ms. Cuellar: Thank you. Any questions? Thank you very much Mr. Copeland.
Madam Clerk: Kim Johnson, followed by James Turner Allen.
Ms. Johnson:Hello. Good afternoon. I'm Kim Johnson. I do not live in the Great Neck
Corridor. The last time that we spoke with one another, we talked about common sense.
We talked about the differences between the two plans. We talked about the need for
establishing codes, and laws, and things and following that. We also talked about codes
are different than morals and values. We talked about that you are volunteers, and that
you put your heart and soul into what you're doing as are the applicants, and that we want
to make things fair for all whenever possible.
We want to be sure that we have a community that's connected. We want to be sure that
we have a community that follows the current plan. We want to do what our consciences
tell us is right. Many people often act out of fear. Fear is not a good place to act. Fear
hurts others. So let's be brave. This is our country, and it's the home of the brave, and
we need to make very difficult decisions sometimes that affect lives deeply, and for future
generations. If you serve on this board because you care about future generations, the
City of Virginia Beach, the connectedness of the community, and are here, and I'm going
to paraphrase, for what the Planning Commission stands for, to protect its citizens, for the
health, the safety, and the welfare, then you need to vote no today.
You are not going to be sued because you vote. No, you are making a recommendation
to City Council. Governments, they do the best they can, and you're a portion of that.
We all are, and here I am. I think it was what Thomas Paine said, correct me if I'm wrong,
that it's the duty of a patriot to protect its citizens against government. So if there's some
law or some code that was written and it says, "Hey, don't do this," but it omits something
instead of being artificial intelligence, and just looking at this is the code. We need to take
a look at, how do we implement a better code, and how do we create solutions in the
future? So let's create a solution and I'll get to that in a second. That's what didn't get
done. That's why you need to go back to the drawing board.
That's why we all need to do better, better for our communities. All right, so what we have
here is a situation where you got to vote, you got to vote today, and you're going to impact
a lot of lives and you need to think about what your legacy is going to be on this committee.
Did you vote against a lot of current rules and regulations that are going to get
sidestepped in order to put a residential section. I'm a realtor, I'm not representing HRRA
today, but I do stand on the professional committee, and I'm going to say. Here, you want
facts? I have never seen a fact where somebody's searching for a place that's going to
flood or has a high flood potential.
I have never seen a situation, very respectfully, that anybody says, I want to live. One of
the main criteria for me is that I want to make sure my family lives where there's a
commercial zone right in the middle of it, and my kids can play, and I want to be sure that
people are not harmed.
Ms. Cuellar: Ms. Johnson, we need to be fair to everyone. It's three minutes for each
speaker unless you're representing a league. Thank you.
Madam Clerk: James Turner Allen, followed by Susie Rice.
Mr. Allen: Honorable Planning Commission, my name is James Turner Allen. I've
stood before you guys once before, and I have basically the same thing that I would like
to say, and hopefully that you'll listen. I've lived in the Great Neck Estates community for
39 years. Our community is an old community. It came with some issues. Since
development, we have drainage issues. We still have them. We had serious draining
issues just the other day at my driveway, and many others in my community.
We had two, a couple of feet of water standing there. The kids used to call it the Allen's
Pond, but we love our community. Some of the houses, most of them are built on larger
lots. We have a little bit of, you know, we have a little bit of privacy. We kind of like that.
So it's not a bad community. We love it. Even with the issues that we have to deal with,
we have smaller streets, but the people in the community can walk their kids. They can
walk their dogs without getting run over. They can isolate some of them, let the kids ride
their bikes alone through our community without being afraid of them.
Getting run over by somebody at this point. Now, we are facing development and zoning
issues, and we've talked about here, I'm -- I'm telling we've talked about it before, and
everybody has pretty much the same feeling about their community, we like ours. As a
matter of fact when I first moved into the community I thought Wycliffe Church was a
beautiful place, and my God, we got a church right here in the community, and I can put
on my suit, in walking distance, I can put on my suit and walk up to the church, but I tell
you what, guys, I walked up, I put on my suit and walked up to your church one day, and
somebody told me that the sermon had already started, and I didn't get in, so I walked
back to my house, back in Great Neck States, and I put off my suit, and I started working
in my yard.
My tithes and offerings go to somebody else. Yeah, it's a financial thing. All right, but it's
also a place where somebody should be able to go and sit. I can also do the same thing
underneath the tree and communicate with God. I just thought I'd throw it out to you, and
not one single time has anybody from that church come through, invited anybody that I
know to join your congregation. I just thought I'd throw that out. We need your support.
Especially in the zoning area, and we look forward to you guys looking into it with open
eyes and just giving us a little nod.
Ms. Cuellar: Thank you, Mr. Allen.
Madam Clerk: Susie Rice, followed by Jenny Pesaris.
Ms. Rice: Thank you for having us as part of your agenda today. My name is Sue
Rice. I live in Great Neck Estates, where I have been for 40 years. I first taught school
at Thalia Elementary in 1962, when this was a county. I have seen things, a lot of things,
and most of them have been pretty good. We have a great city, a place where people
would really like to live. I do have more to add to that though. It is with profound sadness
that an organization that serves the worship needs of its community required resources.
That, in my understanding, would eventually be provided to them, without this massive
energy, emotional impact, and time consuming effort on all sides.
The current proposed solution will heavily impact Lake Conrad 1 and 3, and I live only
four houses from the church whose surrounding communities have in the past 30 years
heavily invested financially, energetically, and physically in their maintenance without any
support from the City of Virginia Beach, other than cleaning up two fish kills, threatening
several neighbors with severe fines for existing growth, which, by the way, was withdrawn
by the city once they realized what had happened, and sloppily repairing the existing dam,
to the Lynnhaven River. Furthermore, the proposed sites will further add to an already
dangerous intersection where constant U-turns are required to reach Wycliffe Church,
and businesses along the West Corridor of North Great Neck Road.
Construction and possible removal of trees will further impact the existing environment,
and also reduce the protection we have from the sound of that road, add to stormwater
removal concerns, and at least add to existing traffic woes. It is time for the City to
reconsider the appropriate use of the property that we have in question. Resources are
there, if our city thoroughly invested in the option to buy and maintain the property in
question as an open natural space and educational park for the adjoining communities
as well as for Wycliffe Church. The existing structure was for years used by the city. So,
it is not a stranger in this process. I also understand that grant funding is available for a
massive park on an existing city golf course, and perhaps a portion could be made
available to the smaller projects. Grants can be altered. Thank you for your attention.
Madam Clerk: Jenny Pesaris, followed by Wendy Crutchfield.
Ms. Pesaris: Hello. I'm a teacher too. I just brought y'all a whole bunch of literature and
facts. So, and I took off this afternoon. I didn't use my wellness day. But that's okay,
because I'm a volunteer too, and I've been working hard since last June, I believe it was,
all summer, and we are trying to get across the point that we understand. First of all, let
me say, I represent almost 9,000 signatures, petitions online, and I've emailed that to you.
I emailed you a whole bunch of stuff last night. Some comments off the next door. I
emailed you pictures of current pollution in there because it's coming in from the road.
So, you can imagine if this house is there, it's going to be even more, okay?
So, today, we understand that the church has a right to sell the property, but they haven't,
you know, and they have a need, apparently. I will get to that in a minute, but what we
don't want is houses put it there to impact the stormwater. I brought you an article from
the EPA, and a nice little graphic on the back that shows exactly what houses, what the
rainwater does when it hits the houses, okay? We do have Lake Conrad 2, which
basically acts as a filter for Lake Conrad 1, which flows into Lynnhaven River, and then
on to the Chesapeake Bay. Okay, so that's a very important part, and I'm very glad y'all
voted last time not to fill it in. So the next thing I'm gonna get to is I gave you traffic
reports.
You were told this morning that we have one traffic accident a year on Great Neck Road,
sorry, no, 2023 a 130 incidents on Great Neck Road. Now were they all down near
Wycliffe? No, but they were definitely down towards, oh gosh, now I can't remember the
name of it, but you'll see it here. So I gave you a whole list, there's like four pages, traffic
incidents. Then 2024, we've already had seven. Now those are more closer to Wycliffe.
Okay. Plus we've had two deaths. One at Cox High School, and I don't remember
exactly, I think the other one was down there too. People speed in the Great Neck
Corridor. I'm happy to see more police out there. Give tickets.
But anyway I'm transgressing, oops, okay, I also want to make let you know that the
Wycliffe Church is a landmark. They are the beginning of the Great Neck Corridor. That
green space, itjust catches your eye when you're driving by, and then you see the church,
and it's always been there. Those trees are 100 years old. I've been here for 50 and they
were as big. I know I've got nine seconds. Last thing, I want to show you is I did my son
is a realtor, and I know that the coastal type homes that Bishard wants to build do not
match the red brick that's all along Great Neck Road. I think they should go in coastal
areas, not in the front of an old traditional brick one story neighborhood. Not to mention
the safety problems, the traffic is going to be horrendous. So here's another one on the
code and ordinances too.
Ms. Cuellar: Thank you so much.
Madam Clerk: Wendy Crutchfield, followed by Julia M. Cherry.
Ms. Crutchfield: Hello, I'm Wendy Crutchfield, a resident. I want to thank you for
receiving my lengthy letter about spot zoning, and thank you to those who have gone to
the property and heard from residents. Last week, the developers and church met with a
small group of us to show their new plan, carving out a business lot out of a residential
lot within a neighborhood completely surrounded by housing lots. They shared that there
is going to be additional runoff from their recently redesigned housing development into
Lake Conrad. The exact word, is that there will be more water associated with this than
comes off the property as grass today, and described precisely the body of water will go
into Lake Conrad to an asset of the City's stormwater management facilities. I thought
that wasn't allowed today.
The planning department concurred that there are no BMP requirements for the housing
development for drainage into the lake, since it will be a separately owned property under
this new carved out design. We also know there is no water filtration system, which the
developer told the community he would provide back in February 2023 under his previous
design plan. Public Works verified that this week, one was promised to the lake residents
by the city back in 2019 before the shooting, funded by state and federal sources, but
suddenly it isn't needed. In this new and rushed redesign, there is only a 10 feet
vegetative buffer between the top of the lake, and the new private road that will run
alongside it.
This is less than half the minimum standard of 25 feet provided by the State of Virginia
for wet pond buffers. Their new private road basically skims the top of the lake's bank.
Why not move it farther away? Why on earth would we lower State standards in Virginia
Beach after the flood referendum? Today you heard the state defines this as a wet pond,
but the city doesn't. Again, why lower standards? So as you're hearing, we're getting
more water, more pollution because of this project and lower standards. But why? There
is no need for additional office space in this area. R-10 zoning is already allowed for child
care, elder care, community centers, and nonprofits.
There is no need to rezone if these uses are actually the intent. The developer said last
week that he has every intention of maximizing the market value of his new business
park. We fully expect a proper change in the near future. The time to resolve all the
concern is now before any zoning change. They need to go back, and address the many
concerns of the residents in this valuable ecosystem. The citizens have provided
substantial evidence that the community will not be harmed by the proposed new zoning.
We feel that as taxpayers who have supported the church to operate tax free for decades,
we should have some discernible benefit. All we have right now are a long list of very
real, and very measurable detriments. Thank you for your time and attention to this critical
decision.
Ms. Cuellar: Thank you, Crutchfield. Are there any questions?
Madam Clerk: Julia Cherry followed by Lisa Smith.
Ms. Cherry: Hi, Commissioners. Thank you for your time. My name is Julia Cherry. I'm
a resident of Great Neck Estates, and second vice-president for the Civic League of Great
Neck Estates. The traffic issues, I've supplied you with pictures. I hope everybody has
the pictures that I sent to you, and have you reviewed them? Because they're very
important. They tell a big story. This is the school bus picture that I've provided from, so,
I guess it was seven something in the morning. The traffic along Great Neck Road is
extremely, extremely dangerous, and busy.
The police department has labeled Great Neck Road as an area of concern. They've
increased their patrols, and they've been to multiple accidents. Some of them extremely
serious. Millwood Road, this is just a picture of a work truck parked where the entrance
is. There is no room when you make that turn for any type of error. There's just not
enough space. So, I've also included the FOIA records to the City for the traffic accidents.
Millwood Road and Harbor Lane are right across from one another. In 2023, there have
been four accidents at the front of our entrance. Godfrey Lane is at our other entrance to
Great Neck Estates.
We have two entrances. Godfrey Lane alone has had six accidents in the last year alone.
Great Neck Circle, one accident. I've highlighted on my sheet, everybody's received this,
the FOIA police reports. Now, I'm going to go to the application -- the joint application,
that was provided by Bishard Homes. This is for the wetland delineation. The address
listed on this application is 3207 Millwood Road, how is this accurate? It's not accurate.
I don't know how they even passed this through to get where they've gotten so far. That's
very frustrating.
The applicant has been allowed to come back and redesign based on the original
application. That's unfair. I'm going to go to the signs, and I did file a complaint and
asked that this be delayed indefinitely just based on the signage. The community is not
aware of what is going on because the zoning and variance signs have gone up and down
for over a year now, and I just ask you to please, please vote with the information that
we've provided with you. It's not safe to add any more traffic to our Millwood Road in
Great Neck Estates, and to allow a business in there would be totally against the
standards of the City's plans.
Ms. Cuellar: Thank you, Ms. Cherry. I appreciate it. Thank you.
Madam Clerk: Lisa Smith, followed by Jim Haney.
Ms. Smith: Hi, good morning. Thank you for allowing me to speak today, and thank
you friends for allowing me to join you. First of all, I'm Lisa Smith. I'm a resident and
homeowner since 1989 in the Great Neck area. I do not live. I live in Laurel Cove, which
is the neighborhood right next to Great Neck Estates, and I have a number of friends in
Great Neck Estates. I have previously presented to City Council, and to you regarding
the misinformed name of calling Lake Conrad a pond, which it is not, it is Lake Conrad 1,
Lake Conrad 2. It is not a pond.
So, I'm not here specifically to talk about the fill in, but we definitely don't want to have
that filled in. The specific reason that I'm here is, specifically for the not. Asking you
specifically not to have the rezoning of an 0-1 to allow an office building into that
neighborhood. There are a number of other concerns that have been brought up related
to the traffic, but there are a couple of reasons for that. Number one, there are no, along
Great Neck Road from Virginia Beach Boulevard to the bridge toward Shore Drive, there
are no buildings, houses, buildings, offices greater than two stories. There are none. The
only building that's greater than two stories is Great Neck Middle that is set back hundreds
of feet from the road. So, number one, no building taller than.
Number two, the other area is related to the zoning of 0-1, you'd be entering in through
Millwood, and turning down to that area passing four or five houses that Bishard is looking
to plan that is also not something that makes sense in any neighborhood. You're coming
into a neighborhood. If they wanted to have an office building, they can do it over enter
in through the church parking lot and go into there. There's no reason for that. The three
asks that I have are, number one, do not approve the 0-1 zoning to allow for an office
building to go into down Millwood Road, and go into that space. Number two, do not allow
Lake Conrad to be referred to as a pond.
Perform a traffic assessment on both North Great Neck Road, and Millwood, you can put
those little traffic counters there, see how much traffic is going in there in and out, and
also specifically on Great Neck Road in that area. I think that would prove to see some
of the higher volume, particularly if you're going to build those five homes and an office
building in that area, you have much increased traffic there. So I ask you for your
consideration for the group specifically as it relates to the office building number one, but
also from a traffic study. Thank you very much.
Ms. Cuellar: Thank you, Ms. Smith.
Madam Clerk: Jim Haney, followed by Kim Mayo.
Mr. Janey: Good morning, and thank you for the opportunity to speak. My name is Jim
Haney. I've been a member at Wycliffe since 1979. They talked about all those people
in the 80's that weren't going to make it. I'm one of them. I'm getting close to it. Not the
oldest one there, but I'm getting close. I would just like to state two or three things that I
consider fact. Number one, the church needs to sell this property. It's our only desire is
to sell the property. I don't think the city has kept a church from selling property previously.
We need it because we want to be there a long time. I think it's pretty evident that the
people who have spoken are against any change. Any change at all? If they had taken
the same arguments they made, Great Neck Road would still be a two lane road. We
wouldn't have those neighborhoods that are there. So, as far as the A frame building and
this zoning, it's part of the process that has to take place for us to be able to sell the
property. The city operated a program, a business, the (inaudible) stem out of that
building for 20 years. The church, in essence, gave the building to the city. We started
with no rent.
By the time they left, we were getting $11,00 a year, I think, for utilities for them to run
that program. That was as big a business that will ever be in there. So we just ask for
your consideration on letting the church move forward, hopefully survive, and have a
chance to sell our property without all the problems that we're looking at. Thank you for
listening.
Ms. Cuellar: Any questions? Thank you, Mr. Haney.
Madam Clerk: Kim Mayo via Webex is our last speaker, Madam Chairman.
Ms. Mayo: Kim Mayo, I'm a civic leader and speaking for the community at-large. This
new submission seems like spot zoning, and is one of the more flawed development
efforts I've seen. Please do not remove the CUP, and honor the Land Use decision of
1966. I'm under 50 years old, and a parent, and a member of a Presbyterian church and
find this very sad. I grew up in a semi-rural community. We embrace change but not
recklessness. This land is made for you and me. Because it's made for us, it's up to us
to preserve it. Thank you, community leaders, for all your tireless efforts and passion,
and thank you, Planning Council, for your time this afternoon.
Ms. Cuellar: Thank you very much.
Madam Clerk: That was our last speaker, Madam Chairman.
Ms. Cuellar: We now have the applicant to come up and rebut.
Mr. Bourdon: Well, appreciate people coming down and expressing their opinions and it's
pretty clear to me, and I suspect to most of you, that this is primarily intended to put more
pressure on the City to buy this property for a park that they have been advocating for
since we were here last, using somewhat different arguments now. Last time, you know,
we heard, don't fill the lake. I never said that the church was filling the lake, or in favor of
filling the lake. In fact, I said specifically, if there was a drainage easement the City had
through the lake, they wouldn't be able to fill the lake. That's exactly what I said, and no
plan was presented at that meeting to do anything with this property other than the idea
that we have to remove a use permit, which is not zoning on a property that hasn't been
used for religious use in over 30 years. It has been used for an office use for over 30
years, and arguably doesn't even have a use permit for religious use anymore.
But rather than just try to plow ahead, and build eight houses, and leave the lake alone
or as you heard this morning, the lake does not provide -- does not provide any needed
storage capacity according to the Public Utilities Director. It probably does provide, I
believe it absolutely does provide some quality benefits to the City of Virginia Beach, but
Lake Conrad, the big lake, or whatever 2 or 1, that's not man made, or maybe it's man
made too, but he clearly acknowledges this was man made. It's not a natural body of
water. That lake apparently has enough capacity that, you know, this doesn't have to be
there. It could be piped. That's what I heard.
Now, the church has never been in favor of doing that, and this gives the best assurance
other than an impoundment easement, but even that could be vacated by the City of the
lake or the pond, staying a lake or a pond, and that's what the church, and that's what this
application provides is that the back two plus acres, would basically stay unchanged.
Some of the uses that were proposed when this was moving forward to council of the A
frame, which we're not proposing to build a new building, as I heard some people say,
that building gets to stay.
That's the whole purpose of this, trying to keep the change to a minimum, but there are
houses fronting Great Neck Road, in Great Neck Estates, and on the other side of
Millwood that have been there since, I was probably about five years old, and to put
houses that are better situated that back up to the road like all the other neighborhoods
that have been developed in more recent times is exactly the way housing ought to be
developed along a six lane thoroughfare, that's what this property is zoned. It's not-- this
isn't a rezoning to residential. It's residential R-10.
It's going to be, if it's approved, conditional residential R-10. No change in dimensions or
anything else, but instead you have a plan that what you see is what you will get, and
that's a very nice plan with homes that will be certainly not diminish the value of anybody
else's home in Great Neck Estates or Great Neck Manor, by any means, will that be the
case. I've provided you all with a ton of examples in some of the nicest neighborhoods,
entrances to some of the nicest neighborhoods in our city. That have not just a quaint,
formerly chapel, you know, office renovated 32 years ago at their entrances, and the earth
hasn't, you know, they haven't just fallen in. It hadn't cratered.
There is no flood risk and will be no flood risk under our current storm water ordinances,
and this is high part of Virginia Beach, not a low part of Virginia Beach, and if there's so
much capacity in the other bigger 20 some acre lake that this is really not necessary for
the quantity, and again, I heard Mr. Hanson say that this morning, then there's certainly
plenty of capacity for this little bit of new development, and it is very minimal. Again, when
you're talking about 74-75% percent of the water going through there is not coming from
here. This, I mean, it's a fraction of a fraction.
So, this is not a flood hazard for anybody in any of the neighborhoods around it, will not
be under any circumstances, neighborhoods with almost no exception that were
developed prior to even having a stormwater management ordinance, much less all of
the very, very stringent ordinances, and requirements that we have today for stormwater
to create resilience. Again, use permit on the property is not zoning, and there are
countless examples that a use permit, when it's abandoned, it goes away. It goes away.
In fact, the use permit for the child care facility that was in here it went away apparently
last year.
I won't get into all of that, but I'd be happy to answer any questions any of you may have.
I don't know, you know, I can't address some of these things that are, you know, more
emotion driven than anything else, but the church provided the City an opportunity, the
sought the opportunity to buy the property if they wish to do so, and that did not happen.
There was no interest. I want to say one thing about what you all talked about this
morning. I'm sorry it's not a rebuttal, but about the open space contribution. No one
asked the question. The potential to create a 5,000 square foot postage stamp for the
benefit of these five homeowners does exist, but again, it won't serve anybody else.
It won't be for anybody else's benefit, and they won't be able to get to it because it would
be, you know, next to the, the church's remaining property behind the houses that, you
know, it just doesn't, you know, it just doesn't seem to make any sense to staff nor to, I
think, anybody else and based on the history of these small little teeny parks, and little
small neighborhoods, they don't get maintained because the property owners don't have
the wherewithal to maintain them. So it makes a lot more sense to pay the money to the
city, and let the city use it to improve other existing parks, or potentially put along with
other capital funds to buy park space rather than to try to create some little 5,000 square
foot postage stamp behind one of the lots. So, I'd be happy to answer any questions any
of you may have.
Ms. Cuellar: Thank you very much. Commissioners, are there any questions for Mr.
Bourdon?
Mr. Cromwell: Mr. Bourdon, on lot number five, the lot requirement, it requires, it says 80
feet as far as the lot width.
Mr. Bourdon: Yes, Mr. Cromwell.
Mr. Cromwell: And, you only have 20 feet.
Mr. Bourdon: That's because it's a reverse flag. The lot is 80 feet in width facing the
private street. So it's, and the private street is the access, not the public street. It's 80
feet in width set back from the public street, and that's why the variance is because we're
not utilizing -- we're not using Great Neck Road to access any of those lots. All of those
lots, the other four have the frontage, but they're not accessing it. There's a one put, no
ingress, egress easement, that'll be platted along Great Neck, and along Millwood for the
five houses, so that they cannot access the road, they actually front upon.
So all of the lots will be accessing a private road, not the public street. So the 20 feet
reverse flag, is there for the purpose of bringing in the utilities, which will come to all of
the lots from Great Neck Road to the frontage on Great Neck, that's really back of those
lots. So that is the purpose for the reverse flag, but the lot itself will be 80 feet in width
for the houses being built will be the same, they meet the required width.
They don't just have that width at the 30 feet set back from the Great Neck Road. The
others do, but it's, and we're creating, just so I'll also make this clear, wasn't brought this
morning, there's a 5 feet easement that's being granted on the churches, or the 5 lots
before you get to the 10 feet landscape buffer and, fence, so it's actually 15 feet between
the public right-of-way, and the fence on the property because there's also, we're
providing dedicating an easement for the City of Virginia Beach for utilities, and 5 feet of
the subject property.
Mr. Cromwell: I don't have questions. I just would like to make a statement if you're ready
for that after Mr. Bourdon finished. No, no questions.
Ms. Cuellar: I have one question for you. There's a lot of conversation in opposition to
the 0-1 development, and so when we came today, when we're looking at this application,
can you just kind of take us back a little bit with your applicants and, you know, looking at
the parcel, kind of how the 0-1 idea came into play, if you will?
Mr. Bourdon: Well, the reason we did the 0-1 zoning, the church and Bishard's because
we heard a lot of love and appreciation expressed here, and at city council for preserving
the A frame, the setting, the land around it, not, you know, clearing it and building houses
on it. So that's the reason that the church and the Bishard's, when the city didn't want to
buy it for open space park, you know, so we felt the best thing to do was to leave it as it
is, and prove it by renovating the building and, you know, putting I mean, that's why we
thought this was the best way because the other way is to put three more houses on that
piece of property, and that's what it's zoned for.
So, we just felt like it was something that, and the uses that we've proffered would be
allowed. It's very unlikely, I mean, Ryan, so the gentleman, we had some nice
conversations, but we've got this to the point, it's just not a new building. It's the same
building. It's gonna be a very limited subset of people or businesses that would even be
interested in going there. And, so the, the amount of drama about. You know, how terrible
traffic is going to be, I'm sorry, based on a lot of experience that we've all had, and you
look at all those examples that I've provided, this would be almost assuredly a low, and
with the proffers, a very low impact use that similar, if not identical or less than what was
there for 31 years. That's what we're shooting for.
Ms. Cuellar: Thank you. Any more questions, Mr. Parks?
Mr. Parks: I just have one question. Looking back at the zoning, R- 10 allows for child
care facilities, which is essentially what it was used for the first 30 years.
Mr. Bourdon: It allows for with a conditional use permit now in conjunction with a church
or a school. When the use permit was approved back in 1988, the zoning ordinance
allowed it as a standalone zone for Childcare Education center that changed subsequent
to this being used for Childcare Education Center.
Mr. Parks: But is there, there's no intention to potentially use it as a childcare facility,
and keep it R-10 to alleviate some of these concerns with rezoning to one.
Mr. Bourdon: Most childcare education centers have today with the way they've evolved.
This was a specialized, use. They actually created a sizable amount of traffic. More,
more than a use of this building is likely to provide now nonprofits, and some of those
things that are allowed with the use permit, but there's just so few, and far between could
go there with the use permit. The uses that are proffered here are not high traffic volume
uses and certainly not in a building of this nature. Again, the intent is to reuse the building,
and it could conceivably also be a religious use. You know, that's a loud use in a 4,000
square foot building in 0-1 zoning as a by-right use, and that is also a possibility. I mean,
we just don't -- we've got to put it out in the market, but, I believe because, because of
the way it's situated, and the total lack of visibility, I think it will wind up being something
very similar to what it has been for the last, well, for the 31 years up to 2021, when it
ceased.
Ms. Cuellar: Any more questions from Mr. Cromwell?
Mr. Cromwell: How many offices do you see going into the A frame building, more than
one or only one?
Mr. Bourdon: I believe the likelihood is one. It is conceivable that you might have two, but
they would be small, but I suspect it will be one or two at the most. How they would, you
know, share the space would also be a bit interesting, and it's situated, that it would be,
you know, the non-profit, you know, Lynnhaven River now, if it is on Lynnhaven River. I
mean,there's lot, lots of, you know, lots of folks who I think would be interested, especially
in this corridor, you know, just given the number of retirees, who are active in a lot of
different causes.
I do think there is an opportunity there for a number of potential businesses, it is clear,
not going to be a super high rent building, but we're not, again, there is going to be
investment in fixing the building up, but it is not like, you're coming in, and having to do a
whole lot of work, and we're not developing a new building on the property. So, the rent
scenario doesn't have to be, it won't be the kind of rents you're getting on everything else
like on those examples I gave you, and up and down Great Neck Road, it's not going to
be that type of a use.
Ms. Cuellar: Thank you. Any other questions? We'll now open for discussion. Mr.
Plumlee? Thank you, Mr. Bourdon,
Mr. Plumlee. I don't mind being the first to stick out my chin. I think I've started jotting
down notes when somebody came up, and talked about change brings fear. I think, I
can't remember who the speaker was, and it's kind of ironic when the change is coming
from a church that it still brings fear. This morning, a very large truck came by my house
with a lot of workers and they -- I'd forgotten that my neighbor was having a lot of work
done, major work, to their house, and I felt the invasion and the feeling of, you know,
strangers coming, people I didn't know walking around, and it was bothering me, and
intimidating me.
My instinct was negative, and later I got to thinking, well, maybe it was timing, you know,
I needed to have that feeling coming in to feel the empathy of people who are having that.
Same feeling come over them about change coming, and so it was useful, and then
almost immediately I began to have the feeling and memory because I've been supporting
watermen working in the Lynnhaven River for 20 years, and who are the biggest
complainers? The upland homeowners. When they look out the water, they see it all as
theirs, and the watermen are nothing, but an invasion in their view, and their beauty, and
the silence that they have, but they don't own the water, and that's the acceptance of
change that there are things you don't control, and you don't own your neighbor's land.
In September, I was the first to object to this. I think this is a better product. I think it's far
superior. It's leaving two and a half acres essentially undisturbed with 22 parking spaces
that are over right next to it, very modest number of homes. I know of a school that we
all are familiar with that had to sell a vast majority of the property it held in order to save
the school, and they came under so much criticism, and the accusations was that they
were going to cheat, and use the money for corrupt purpose, and not save the school,
and all those accusations were false, every single one of them. I've not heard any
objection about the actual uses in the office.
The proffer is very specific about this use, it's explicit, and it gave everyone a chance to
come up and say, not this or not that, but I didn't hear any objection based on that. So,
this morning we heard from the Public Works Department, and I disagree I think this
should be an impoundment for the city, but that's my opinion. I would recommend it to
city council to consider that point, but it's not my place. I don't spend city money. I can
just point out things I think that's needed, but despite whether the lake becomes a public
impoundment, the developer will be required in the planning process to maintain the
volumes. That's state code, city code. So I think this planning commission has done a
great job with this matter since back in September,August timeframe,trying to get a better
product for the community. It's not going to stop the fear. I understand that, but those
are the reasons why I support and would recommend this project.
Ms. Cuellar: Thank you very much. Commissioner Hippen?
Ms. Hippen: So I'm sure a few of you saw me looking at my phone because I was looking
at maps of the city to see this project. I came to the commission in between the first
submission and this submission, and when people that I know found out, I was on the
planning commission, I started getting all, I knew where Wycliffe was, before I ever
attended a meeting here. I live on the other side of town. I live over in the portion of
Virginia Beach, which is pretty close to Greenbrier Mall, and I am the first owner. I built
the home that I live in while I was still in the Navy, and I remember that there were a lot
of trees, a lot of trees over there. Our street and another street where the last two built,
and there were people pissed at us because this was an open space that the kids could
play in. Never mind that there's a park a block away from me, or maybe two blocks.
Then came a developer who says, we want to put in this corner here, mixed use. So I
went to all of the meetings. I was very active with my civic league, and I went to all of the
meetings. I was like, this ain't never going to work. So, they put up the cascades, and
there have been small businesses in and out of there. We never got a restaurant. There's
a coffee shop in there. We never got the restaurant because I was thinking, man, I could
just walk down the street, grab dinner here, and there, you know, sit next to the fountain,
maybe hear some, you know, some guitars, you know, acoustic music, that's never
happened. Then came Magnolia Run and Magnolia Chase, two apartment complexes
and they tore down all those trees, and I was like, oh, here we go. Then came the Royal
Farms, and one of my neighbors, I live on a cul-de-sac.
One of the people across the street from me, they built that Royal Farms, and we're
moving. I got news for you. They're still there. Okay. This is a hard one. This is very
very difficult. I recognize, that the church needs to sell this land, I understand. I'm not
happy when the priest sends the basket around the second time at my church. I can tell
you that right now. I didn't just go to the site visit. I drove around the neighborhood, and
I got out and I walked around, and I see what some of you are talking about. I don't know
if I fully agree with some of the things I've heard or disagree with some of the things I've
heard. As I was looking, I noticed, I had -- I did not see anywhere where an office building
of any type was off the Beaton Road. They're on Lynnhaven. They're on Centerville.
They're on Princess Anne.
You don't have to drive off of the road to get to them unless you go into a private area. I
was talking with my architect friend here, and some of the roads that the road is smaller,
the private road is smaller. My concern is emergency vehicles. You know, okay, well,
we're only going to let them park on one side. Well, no, we're not going to let them park
on the street. Now, you and I both know that people park where they want to, when they
want to, you have a party, you gonna park where you want. The road entrance, the private
road entrance is very, very close to the waterway, that concerns me too. As far as what
the office building will be used for they are very specifically delineated. I don't know that
that office building is going to create a lot of traffic.
But man, those houses are going to be close to each other, and those people are going
to back up to a major thoroughfare. I don't know if this is the right thing to do, but I know
that that church needs to take care of their mission, and they need money to do that. God
loves us all, but it still costs money. I wasn't here for the initial one. I know when I thought
they were going to fill in, the waterway, I was like, um-umm, but I don't know if we've
gotten to where we need to get to yet. Thank you.
Ms. Cuellar: Thank you. Commissioner Parks?
Mr. Parks: I agree with Ms. Hippen as the architect friend. I think there are some
admirable things about this proposal, but I still think the main concerns of stormwater
have not been fully addressed, which to be fair at this stage would not be because it goes
through site plan approval. That's why they have that process, but I do understand the
communities outburst as I spoke to many of you guys after the meeting last time about
the stormwater issues. I mean, that's something that I've been passionate about and
have staked my career on. So, for that reason, I agree with Ms. Hippen that I don't think
we're there yet, but I do think this is a better proposal than what we saw in September.
Ms. Cuellar: Thank you very much. Commissioner Coston?
Mr. Coston: Well, I sympathize with both parties concerned. I can remember when my
church was growing, and the pastor would say some Sundays, you know, you can't say
Amen, and pay for the light bill. I understand that churches need funds. My church
actually sold a lot last year to increase the reserve, so that we don't run around with
nothing in a bank account to support a church that seats 1,500 members. So, I think that
I can trust, I know that I can trust those members of staff who will decide what the water
looks like, what the runoff looks like, and they will ensure that there's no extra water
produced on this property that will end up on your property. That's the requirement.
Some say that we're probably the most stringent in this requirement up and down the
East Coast. I trust them to do that to make sure that this development's water does not
end up in your backyard. We were explained today, we talked about. If anything, the
small pond probably backs up water more than it helps. So maybe a pipe would have
worked better, but, we're trying to meet you in the middle, and make sure that the pond
remains as it is. The piece of property that is on remains as it is. I think I'll have to support
this. I think it's the best way we could go at this time.
Ms. Cuellar: Commissioner Byler?
Ms. Byler: Thank you all for being involved in this process. I think it's important that
everyone have an opportunity to speak, not just to hear themselves speak, but because
these opinions are important, and they need to be considered and weighed. So, as a real
estate broker and a professor of real estate law, I recognize that a person has the right to
convey title, and if the church wants to sell regardless of their need, it is their absolute
right to sell the property. I don't think anyone's denied them that right. They could sell it.
The issue is, they want to sell it for the highest value. In order to do that, the potential
buyers are seeking approval for a higher and better use of the property. I opposed the
first application last September.
I thought it would bring problems on the neighborhood. I didn't think that the city should
grant the conditions in order to allow it to proceed. This proposal, I do not find as
offensive. The only thing, I have concerned with is changing the zoning to the O zoning.
However, with the restrictions that have been placed on that O zoning, it's exactly what
you already have, so if they're going to change it beyond that, they'll have to come back
through this process again, and everyone will have an opportunity to speak, and to
present the logic of why at that time. Thank you.
Ms. Cuellar: Thank you. Any commissioners? Commissioner Estaris?
Ms. Estaris: Good afternoon. It is a very difficult decision to be made. I too am from a
religious institution. I understand how churches congregations are getting older. Younger
generations are doing virtual, so how do you get those collection plates filled, right?
They're not present. So I can understand the church's dilemma. I too was in opposition
in September, and I thank those that are here today. I do see a lot of common faces from
last time. By the way, James Allen, here's your nod. We do hear you. We do hear all of
you. We've read all those emails that have come in, some of you are present, some are
not. For those who are listening in, please read those emails.
This is a much better proposal. I hope you agree with that. I am not in agreement where
there is enough information going forward, but it is definitely a better proposal. I think the
planning staff has done a great job listening from the last time, and making the changes
to address the concerns that were addressed last time, but as I see the progression of
what was presented in August, and not getting all the information then, and then feeling
the same way, not feeling I got all the information again, and can those changes, of
course, we can't control those things, and clearly the planning commission doesn't have
a final decision, so city council has that.
So,just as passionate you are about coming here today, I ask you to be just as passionate
in bringing forth the City Council should this go into consent, so the fight continues on,
but again, as I shared, I'm in agreement that this proposal is much better than the first,
but I'm not so ready as I'm not sure if all the information is readily available.
Ms. Cuellar: Thank you very much. Commissioner Mauch.
Mr. Mauch: So, this is my third meeting. I feel like it's my initiation though. This one's
a really tough one. I've spent, and absorbent amount of time researching, listening,
writing, writing emails, reading emails, understanding the area, the community, and it's
very tough. This is a tough decision because on one hand, you want to make sure that
the church is able to sell their land, and use their asset for whatever they please as long
as it's within the guidelines that have been given down by the city. In that respect, I see
that five houses are extremely acceptable. Even given the variances, it's better than
having the entire place full of houses, but with that respect, they have that ability too, if
the use is taken off of religious use.
I do have some anxiety about office, and what that would do with this development. I
don't think I'm there with the office, but the houses are fine, by the way, I think, and if this,
whether it passes and goes to city council, please share your voices. If it fails, I would
like to be able to propose that we allow for the use to be the modification of conditions to
be dropped, so that the church has the ability to sell, and that's where I'm at.
Ms. Cuellar: Thank you very much. Anybody else? I feel incredibly privileged to have
the opportunity to discuss this application. I've met so many people in the community
over the course of the last year, and meeting with all the stakeholders has been incredibly
important to me. Just last week, I had the opportunity for the first time to meet Mr. Bishard,
and to talk with him about this proposal. His decision making project process to even
take on this parcel as an opportunity, and most importantly, the person that I felt I wasn't
hearing from, and I called him myself was Pastor Bug. We talked a lot about his ministry.
I'm a person of faith. We talked a lot about just how we were moving forward, and what's
happening and how we're having change in our community. And yes, change is hard. I
even shared with him as a newly 16-year-old driving up and down Great Neck Road that
landscape has changed quite a bit, but I'm not afraid of change. Often I can embrace
change. I've learned a lot from Marchelle Coleman in particular, the time that she has
invested in this. I applaud her, and her commitment to our city, and to her profession,
and I'm looking very closely at property owner's rights, and how we can move forward.
So many people from the community have actually said these words, they know by
invitation they have access and that has been a privilege. I hold all of our green spaces
dear, but today I'm going to vote in favor of this application. Do I have a motion from the
Panel?
Mr. Plumlee: I'll make a motion to approve as presented.
Ms. Cuellar: Is there a second?
Mr. Coston: Second.
Ms. Cuellar: Thank you. Are there any Planning Commissioner abstaining from the
vote? I have a motion of approval by Commissioner Plumlee, and a second by
Commissioner Coston. Staff will now call for the vote.
Madam Clerk: The vote is now open. Okay, I'm going to defer to you on how to call this
into the record.
Ms. Wilson: Okay, this was a motion to approve. It fails because there is a tie vote. So
it fails, and it will go up to City Council with a recommendation of denial.
Madam Clerk: Okay, by a vote of 5:5, this application has been recommended for denial.
Ms. Cuellar: I'd like to thank everyone who came out to speak on this application. You
are welcome to stay for the rest of the hearing, but having that said, if you'd like to excuse
yourself, thank you again for voicing your opinions on this, and we appreciate your
participation.

Subject: Conditional Use Permit
Date: March, 11, 2024
Wycliffe Presbyterian Church is a proud part of the Virginia Beach community. Chartered in
1964, the newly formed congregation first met in the cafeteria of John B. Dey Elementary
School. After purchasing 8 acres of property further down Great Neck Road to allow for the
growth of the church and its facilities, the first sanctuary (the A-frame) was constructed in
1967, based on a design by one of our charter members. That building served faithfully until
1984 when the current sanctuary was opened.
For the second time in seven months, we appear before you concerning the 3.8 acres of
excess or residual property owned by our church. The decision to sell a portion of our
church property was not an easy one for our congregation, and it began some time ago:
initially with the church board in 2018 as discussions about funding our future began,
through 2021, when the congregation voted to approve the sales agreement. We come to
this point, however, hopeful we will be able to close on the sale and move forward with our
mission in Jesus Christ.
Like many churches, Wycliffe has shared in the struggles of passing time, such as aging
populations, and a smaller giving base. However, unlike many churches, Wycliffe has also
seen steady growth over the last ten years. In 2021, after much conversation and
discernment, the congregation reached the decision to sell the 3.8 acres of excess property.
The desire to sell was not driven by greed, or a lack of concern for the environment. Rather,
we decided to sell because to continue the growth we have experienced, we needed to
increase staff and shore up long-term savings. Therefore, with eyes set on a future of
continued ministry and service to our community, we made the difficult decision to sell.

Wycliffe Presbyterian Church Memo to Planning Commission
The northern part of our property, which is bisected by Stormwater Management Facility
Lake Conrad 2, has seen little religious use since the 1984 opening of the present sanctuary.
Beginning in1987, the A-frame building hosted the Virginia Beach Infant Program, which
started as a joint endeavor between Virginia Beach's then Community Services Board and
Wycliffe Presbyterian Church. Later, that program was taken over by the city social services
department and the parks and recreation department, remaining in the A-frame until 2021.
Recently, our 3.8 acres of excess property has been categorized online and, in the media, as
"open space." This "open space" is property that we must pay to maintain. Property
maintenance was the second driving force behind our decision to sell. Our church members
give primarily to support the mission and ministry of the church; very few give to support
maintenance of a lake. While the church greatly desires to be of service to its neighbors, it
does not have the means, staffing, or desire to maintain the property for open use. Doing so
would require the church to absorb an added level of liability and risk. In accordance with
Presbyterian polity, any requests for access or use of the property must be approved by the
session, which is the church's governing body. At this time, no requests for any use on that
portion of the church property have been made or approved.
Lastly, we recently received word from Ms. Marchelle Coleman that she had been advised by
one of our neighbors that we had taken down our zoning signs. I want you to be assured
that we did not remove the signs at any time. Rather, as you may recall, following their
placement on February 12, Virginia Beach experienced high winds of almost 40 knots on
Great Neck Road. The wind broke the signs loose from their zip-tied fasteners and caused
them to fall to the bottom of the post. Shortly after the ties broke, they were fixed on no
fewer than five occasions. Finally, one of our trustees added extra stakes to the signs, as well
as a horizontal support beam to hold the three signs in place. Since then, they have
remained in place.
We know that you are dedicated public servants and on behalf of our congregation, I thank
you for the time and attention you are giving to the many all variables you must consider as
a part of granting our request to modify the use of this property.

Planning Commission and City Council,
As a 25 year member of the original Wycliffe-
congregation, the philosophy of the Presbyterian
church doctrine compels me to speak up. We are
called on to be active regarding social and moral
issues including environmental concerns.
As a Virginia Beach resident you only have to look
around to realize the biggest threat we face is the one
our sister city Norfolk is drowning in, water. It is
constantly in the news and our leaders promote ways
of dealing with flooding and standing water. Our city
actively promotes retention ponds as a formidable tool
to combat stormwater runoff. These projects include
absorption buffers much wider than the revised project
before you now. As a city we have spent countless
dollars to stay above water. Building infrastructures
that include drainage are a large part of our public
works budget.
Having a natural watershed is a priceless blessing.
Our watershed was even dredged to maintain its
integrity. The open space uplands portion of the
Wycliffe property is also an integral part of natural
filtration.
This decision should not be driven by the monetary
income it creates for the businesses engaged in the
transaction. The church has received over 60 years of
tax relief and now is requesting a modification of use
and boundary change to profit at the detriment of the
neighbors and wildlife that call this area home and
have for decades. The church is not entitled to a
zoning change any more than its neighbors are.
Maintaining the status quo provides reasonably
expected stability to surrounding properties. The
financial need of the church does not negate the
conditions they accepted when purchasing the
property.
The lake was here first and its health should be the
priority in any encroaching development. That
includes the green space that provides natural filtration
to water that eventually enters the Lynnhaven River.
While the project may look possible on the paper
plans, just because it could be built doesn't mean it
should be built.
I would suggest the city of Virginia Beach's large
public works budget include regular maintenance of
this watershed. The church could donate or sell the
wetland portion of the property to its financial benefit
and realize a goal while relieving itself of any ongoing
burdens it may bear. It would set an example of
responsible ownership and goodwill to its neighbors.
After all, isn't that what it's all about?
In closing, the city of Virginia Beach and Wycliffe
Presbyterian church should practice what they preach.
We cannot say one thing while doing another. The
Ripple Effect is in play here as this project is in
defiance of the Bond Referendum. We are all
connected in the outcome of this application, let us
make the common sense decision.

Hello„
Although I do not live in the neighborhood concerned, I do live off of the Great Neck corridor,
and the proposed re-zoning gives me much cause for concern. I am sure I do not need to
bullet point the potential negative ramifications of such a project but will suffice it to say that
the precedent has already been set for NO business rezoning in this area. Please do your best
to represent the citizens and not the developer who has solely monetary gain in mind.

Dear Marchelle Coleman-
Thank you for being very professional and helpful. I appreciate your offer to email me the
current site plan submission for Bishards proposed development of Office park and house sites
around Lake Conrad 2 on Wycliffe land.
1) Great Neck Road at Millwood needs a traffic light installed for SAFETY! North Great
Neck Road is deadly. Too many accidents and critical injuries. An office park will increase
traffic!

VIRGINIA BEACH, VA - On October 5, 2022,
at approximately 3:49 PM, officers from
the Virginia Beach Police Department
(VBPD) were dispatched to a two-vehicle
crash in the 400 block of N. Great Neck
Road.
The initial investigation revealed the driver
of a Nissan sedan made a left turn, failing
to yield the right-of-way to the driver of a
Toyota sedan. The driver of the Toyota was
traveling northbound on N. Great Neck
Road and was unable to avoid hitting the
Nissan.

VIRGINIA BEACH, Va. — One year ago, a car crash
on North Great Neck Road changed a 17-year-old
girl's life forever.
"She texted me at 4:59 and said don't kill me
please, I'm almost home," said Sedonia Triepel's
mom Carrie.
Three minutes after that text message, someone hit
Sedonia who was a standout high school student.
She was critically injured.
2) 1 am opposed to the minimal buffer that will harm lake Conrad2. Bow Creek has a
"Typical 80 ft buffer" and it is discriminatory if there is proposed less than an "80 ft buffer"
around Lake Conrad2. The pollution and function of the SWMF Lake Conrad2 could be
hazardous to the 37 acres of homes that depend on Lake Conrad2 to minimize flooding.
3) Developers shortcuts and special treatment should be avoided.

RE Request for Feedback-Small Project Design
Dear Carrie and Development Services Center Staff,
Gaddy Enginectmg Services and Bishard Homes are mutually responding to the Request for feedback for Small Project
Designs.We are grateful that the Virginia Beach Planning Department is pursuing to streamline the stormwater design
and review for small development projects within the City.Our feedback for discussion is as follows:
I. We propose an increase in the total land disturbance from being less than 20,000 square feet to being up to 43,560
square feet(ore acre).
a With the many projects requiring off-site improvements(for utilities and road widening),small projects
are easily crossing the 20,000 square fee threshold of land disturbance
2, We propose that the Small Project Stormwater Analysis Alternative Option to adhere to the minimum State
requirements for the channel protection and flood protection-State guidelines only require up to 10-year storm
events for flood protection The 100-year storm events are tot required by State regulations.
3, Since 100-year storm events are not required by State regulations,we propose that the modeling requirements be
eliminated for Small Projects_
a. In lieu of modeling requirements,we propose that infill projects in flood prone areas and neighborhoods
be subject to a pro rats cash contribution to the Public Works storm water maintenance budget and
regional Capital Improvement Projects to help alleviate the 10-year and 100-year floods There are no
regional benefits to designing small projects to alleviate 100-year floods.A pro rata contribution will help
improve the flood conditions for the entire neighborhood instead of just the specifically designed sites-
4 We propose that two single family and duplex projects fall under the purview of the State provision of the
"Agreement in Lieu Or'option
a. There have been multiple cases in the North End and Old Beach where a single-family project has more
lot and impervious cover than a duplex development down the street.
i, The duplex project is subject to highly intense storm water scrutiny during plan review whereas
the single-family development has an easier process.
Once again,we are thankful for the opportunity to provide feedback to improve the Small Project Design process.It is our
hope that this improved process helps alleviate the burden of reviewers,increases economic activity,and provides more
homes in the Virginia Beach marketplace
With best regards,
Steven W.Bishartf Michael S.Gadddy,P-E,L..S.

The Citizens of Virginia Beach need Planning to prevent development problems. I believe this
Developer is also involved in Atlantic Park where there is a DEQ investigation of toxic water?
Due care and due diligence is expected in this review.
It seems like an Office Park in an establishment neighborhood is very poor idea.

I am opposed to the spot rezoning for an office in a neighborhood and development of 5
houses with a road built barely 10 feet from Lake Conrad2.
Virginia Beach should do better than building a road abutting Lake Conrad2 National

Other localities value their wetlands and protect them with 100 ft buffers.
Planning Considerations
Existing Local Requirements
Some counties,townships and municipalities across Ohio have already adopted wetland
setbacks. In the event that these setbacks differ from those described here,the larger of
these requirements should be used.
Adjustments to the Setback Width
The setback widths given in this practice offer minimum protection and should be consid-
ered for expansion if any of the following conditions apply:
• Areas crucial to the hydrology of the wetland such as springs,floodplains or streams
extend beyond the standard wetland setback. These areas should be considered for incor-
poration in the setback area,since maintaining the hydrologic support for the wetland is
critical to its continuing function.
• The wetland is a rare,sensitive or high value wetland system. These systems need
greater buffer widths to ensure protection of the current quality.
• Habitat protection,either of wetland species or species that utilize the wetland,is a major
§, objective. Greater than IDO, to is recommended,but wildlife expertise may be neces-
sary to determine the conditions and width needed for the particular species.
100 • Larger setbacks may be appropriate for drainage from a commercial or industrial facility
that may require pretreatment and flow attenuation.
• Areas that are steep or sparsely vegetated will have lower effectiveness in providing
feetWater quality protection for adjacent wetlands and therefore should be expanded.
Storm water management and site planning needed in addition to setbacks
Wetland setbacks will help protect wetland systems,but more is needed as development
occurs. Storm water controls will still be needed to control high-energy flows and to miti-
gate for increased pollution.
Encourage wetland protection through community support and planning
Wetland setbacks are a tool that can be used to protect water quality and water resources.
Local planning officials should consider how to facilitate wetland setbacks through wetland
identification tools(soils,wetland and land use maps),landowner assistance,zoning code
and land acquisition.
Utilizing publicly available resources to produce planning or land use maps can help com-
munities identify where wetlands and wetland setbacks are most likely to be applied.The
Natural Resource Conservation Service and the local Soil and Water Conservation District
provide soils maps and a list of hydric soils.National Wetlands Inventory(U.S.Fish and
Wildlife Service)and Ohio Wetlands Inventory(Ohio DNR)maps may also be useful in
finding wetland locations for planning purposes.Note these maps are not appropriate for
making wetland detineations.Wetland delineation information is available from the Ohio
EPA and the U.S.Army Corps of Engineers.
Finally protect wetland setbacks and the wetlands they surround by placing these areas
under a conservation easement.Note that deed restrictions are much less protective since a
judge can abolish them at the request of a landowner without public notice.
epa.ohio.gov
This rezone and Development is not well planned and the new road the Developer wants
should be adjacent to Great Neck Rd.
Please use common sense and deny the zoning and Developer changes.
We need Legacy open space wetlands. We already have an abundance of impervious
surfaces.

Dear Honorable Virginia Beach Planning Commissioners,
I am sending you this email not just as a concerned resident of Great Neck Estates, but as
a voice for our community and the silent whispers of our cherished environment. Imagine, if
you will, a morning where the serene hum of nature is replaced by the incessant honking of
cars, where the air we breathe is no longer crisp but laden with the fumes of congestion.
This is the future we face if we choose to rezone our precious open and religious space into
a commercial area. But today, we have the power to choose a different path.
Let's talk about reality - the kind that's happening right outside our windows. Our roads,
once the arteries of our community's lifeblood, are now choked with traffic, accidents
waiting to happen at every turn. Did you know that the number of car accidents in our area
has been climbing steadily? With each crash, we don't just tally numbers; we're counting
fathers, mothers, children whose lives are forever altered. It's a dangerous dance on the
tightrope of safety, and with every new vehicle added to the mix, we're inching closer to a
catastrophe. It's not just a matter of if, but when.
Now, let's ponder the consequences of rezoning. It's like opening Pandora's box, isn't it? By
transforming our wetlands and open space into commercial zones, we're not just inviting
more traffic; we're courting disaster. Imagine the domino effect: more cars, more accidents,
more lives irreversibly changed. And what of our environment? Wetlands are our natural
sponges, soaking up floodwaters. But what happens when we pave paradise? We're left to
grapple with flooding, an adversary that no amount of regret can hold back. It's a stark
choice between preserving our natural defenses or facing the wrath of nature head-on.
But here's the heart of the matter: the people, your constituents, have spoken. An online
petition has over 8,600 signatures. The pulse of our community beats to the rhythm of
preservation, not development. There's a chorus of voices, from every corner of our town,
united in opposition. We've seen what happens when the balance tilts too far toward
progress at the expense of safety and sustainability. It's a lesson etched in the heartbreak
of communities around us, a cautionary tale we dare not ignore. We stand at a crossroads,
and the path we choose will define the legacy we leave for generations to come.
There have also been a number of items out of compliance with the laws set by the City
Council. Such as the subdivision variance, rezoning to business, and modification signage
posted on Great Neck Road and Millwood Road. These signs are to be posted and legible
for 30 days prior to the hearing. Unfortunately, as you can see in the below photos, they
were out of compliance. This would lead our citizens to not know or understand what is
being proposed. Below you will see each day with dates and times that these signs were
not in compliance with the City Code.
Furthermore, there are many mistakes made in the joint application including the address
(the correct address is 2307 Millwood Road, however in the application it is listed as 3207
Millwood Drive), a misrepresentation of trees and plants, disruption of the stormwater
drainage system, and a disturbance of natural habitat. There are endangered birds,
butterflies, long eared bats, and long standing trees that call Lake Conrad 2 and
surrounding space home and have also been left off the application. In section 7, Historic
Resources Information, it was marked "NO" for any buildings or structures 50 years old or
older located on the project site. The current A Frame building and bridge are both older
than 50 years old, making them historic properties. If the builder cannot provide an
accurate representation, shouldn't the city feel the need to deny at least until a third party
Quality Assurance is conducted? How can you make an informed decision based on
inaccurate data on the application?
I would also urge you to deny the removal of the Conditional Use Permit for religious
purposes of the entire eight acres. In 1966, Great Neck Road welcomed the church with the
intentions of keeping the allotted eight acres for religious purposes and sacred ground. The
city deemed the land a benefit to the community, and removing it would truly result in public
detriment.
However, all is not lost. We're presented with a golden opportunity to lead by example, to
show that progress does not have to come at the expense of our safety and our
environment. Instead of rezoning, let's invest in solutions that enhance our community while
preserving the integrity of our wetlands, open green space, and historic structures. Imagine
improved infrastructure that addresses our current traffic woes without compromising on
safety. We have the chance to be pioneers, to chart a course that marries innovation with
preservation. It's a vision of the future where progress and nature walk hand in hand.
In closing, I urge you, esteemed members of the city council, to consider the legacy we
wish to leave behind. We have before us a choice that will echo through the ages. A vote
against rezoning is not just a vote for safety; it's a declaration of our commitment to our
community, to our environment, and to future generations. Let us choose a path of
preservation, of safety, of sustainability. Let's vote NO on rezoning. Together, we can
safeguard the heartbeat of our community and ensure that the morning hum of nature is not
lost to the cacophony of progress.
Sincerely,
Julia M. Cherry

Dear Planning Commission and City Council,
I am opposed to the rezoning of the parcel of property that Wycliff Church is attempting to
sell to Bishard Homes for 5 R-10 homes and an office building.
First and foremost, as the city continues to address flooding issues throughout our city, it is
very concerning to me that the city would approve to tear down mature trees, infill sloping
land towards Lake Conrad and build 5 homes with concrete driveways and a roadway on land
that currently is a part of our stormwater runoff plan and is an area that is already prone to
flooding. Where will all of the water go when the homes, driveways,possibly swimming
pools and a roadway to these 5 homes are in place?
We keep hearing that one of the problems with our current city budget is due to the need to
resolve our current flooding issues in our city. Please don't approve this development that is
certain to create additional flooding problems for Wycliff,the existing Great Neck Estates
neighborhood and these 5 new proposed homes and the office building. I think most of us
believe this will create yet another flooding issue,that we the taxpayers,will then be on point
to fund.
Next, it does not seem reasonable to put an office building smack dab in the middle of an
established neighborhood and between the existing neighborhood and the new proposed
residential development. It is concerning to think the roadway that is currently the entrance to
that existing neighborhood would also be shared not only with those 5 new home, but also
with that office building. Please don't allow this to happen to the residents of this
neighborhood or any other neighborhood in our city for that matter.
I do not live in the Great Neck Estates neighborhood nor any of the immediately adjacent
neighborhoods, but I am becoming increasingly concerned with what seems to be prioritizing
the desires of developers over the desires of the tax paying residents. A decision to NOT
allow this project to go forward, could be a positive turning point for the citizens of this city. I
hope you will hear the plea from citizens to not approve this project.
Thank you for your consideration of my and many other citizens concerns.

Dear Mayor Dyer,City Council,and Planning Commissioners of Virginia Beach-
Our citizens have not forgotten the flooding problems from the past and are still dealing with it still today.
I adamantly oppose the development at Wycliffe Church so our neighborhood won't look like the ones
below or have major flooding problems on Great Neck Road.
Great Neck road is a very heavily traversed road and extra water on it won't help accidents from happening.
We have had major accidents resulting in death on this road in the past year.Not to mention,a tornado
visited us less than a year ago.
Our lawns are soaked from the rain just this week.We have sitting water in our yards and collection of
water in our streets.Building 5 homes on the property at Wycliffe is a bad design on top of a horrible plan.
REMEMBER-the water has to go somewhere and replacing green space with non pervious
surfaces is only going to lead to disaster.
The church is more than welcome to sell their property after fifer the contract is up with
BISHARD HOMES to the city for a park. This is what the parishioners truly want to see
happen to this beautiful open space that serves and protects the animals,ecosystem,
stormwater inlet,flooding,etc.(I think you get the point.)
Most of the congregation would rather see a park for open space than 5 overbuilt vinyl siding homes
that don't match our brick one story neighborhood.
You make regulations for neighborhoods,BUT then you don't follow them,so what good is having them in
the first place?
Regarding the BOND REFERENDUM that the citizens voted for in 2021-even if you haven't enacted it
for the city to follow for controlling runaway development,THE PEOPLE HAVE SPOKEN,THEY ARE
TIRED OF THE OVERDEVELOPMENT OF VIRGINIA BEACH AND NEIGHBORHOOD FLOODING.
It passed with our VOTE,therefore it should be in full force whether you say it is or not!The people want
to see you follow their request,not the Developers!We outnumber them and they are making our once
beautiful city UGLY.
You make it look like you are working on it,but really you are just kicking the can down the road so
developers can get as much development done before you implement the BOND Referendum completely.
Whatever negative outcome arises from your decisions,remember it is your fault and responsibility.
NOT HAPPY with your current standards.

Dear Planning Commissioners and City Council:
I am opposed to rezoning the front of Great Neck Estates to Business Zoning. This
neighborhood is part of the Suburban Areas of Virginia Beach, as identified in the
Comprehensive Plan. The city committed to enhance or maintain existing neighborhoods in
the Suburban Areas.
Where is your commitment to the citizens of this city, and where is your commitment to
environmental stewardship? As our city faces the real and growing threats to our
infrastructure from climate change, the time for responsible planning has never been more
crucial.
The plan as presented degrades the community and devalues the properties of an
established neighborhood in order to serve the best interests of two private entities. The
Virginia Beach Zoning code is intended to promote and protect the health, safety, and
general welfare of the people of the city. It also specifically should protect and improve the
quality of the waters. This plan does not encourage the best purpose of this land and lake
and threatens all Suburban Areas throughout Virginia Beach by violating the zoning
ordinance and the Comprehensive Plan.
Respectfully,

Distinguished Members of the City of Virginia Beach City Council and Planning Commission.
My comments are regarding the developer's plan to acquire a parcel of property from the
Wycliffe Presbyterian Church on North Great Neck Road,
obtain rezoning so that he may convert an existing religious building to commercial use, erect
some new multi-story commercial structures and then squeeze a few houses on this pristine,
lake side,park like property.
Like many thousands of other long standing Virginia Beach Citizens, I am absolutely opposed
to the rezoning and commercial development on this property
adjacent to my Great Neck Estates neighborhood.
Such development would be contrary to the city Comprehensive Plan,which for a wide
variety of sound, long standings reasons has historically
prohibited commercial development on North Great Neck Road property north of the church.
For what it's worth,notwithstanding the developer and his attorney's protestations,the word in
our neighborhood is that the church no longer has a financial problem and would if they could
walk away from the unfavorable sales contract.
Sincerely,
John A. Carbone

Honorable Planning Commission:
I am James Turner Allen, and I have lived in Great Neck Estates for 39 years. Our
neighborhood is an older community with issues dating back to development. Our
homes are built on somewhat larger lots that give us some breathing room and
privacy; a luxury we all love.
Today, however, we are facing new developmental and zoning challenges that—if
allowed to proceed—would negatively impact our lives. I strongly oppose any zoning
changes that would allow for office business to operate in our community. We do not
deserve this and I would think you would not allow it to happen where you live.
I appreciate your time,
James T. Allen

Dear Honorable Virginia Beach Planning Commissioner's,
Please find the attached photo documentation of the traffic conditions on Great Neck Road and in the
Great Neck Estates neighborhood.
In an earlier email,I included the FOIA report from VBPD of accidents along Great Neck Road for
your review. There are many serious incidents that have occurred.
I'm truly worried about the safety of residents in GNE if a change of zoning to business in our
residential is approved.
In my humble opinion,there should have been a traffic impact study done by the city and developer.
Please vote to deny any zoning changes on Wednesday,March 13th,2024.
Wycliffe Church Pastor Bugg has stated the church sought out a zoning change twice and was
denied by the planning department. The city will not allow any new driveways on N. Great Neck
Road. We,the community do not want any additional traffic congestion to negatively affect our
peaceful environment in Great Neck Estates.
Respectfully yours,
Julia M.Cherry

Conditional 0-1 Office District for property at 1445 North Great Neck Road&2307 Millwood Road

---._.__..--_-----____.-_.__-._.--------.-.-----_.---._____.__.._____.. ._-.....----_-.---.-.---__.--------------- .._.._-.,__________._-___.___..-.-.-.-_____._
Dear Planning Commissioners:
As residents(and voters) in Great Neck Estates in Virginia Beach, our household strongly
opposes the application by Wycliffe Presbyterian Church&BHC, LLC for the Conditional
Rezoning of the R-10 Residential District to Conditional 0-1 Office District for the property
located at 1445 North Great Neck Road &2307 Millwood Road.
The existing A-Frame building on the property was most recently used from approximately
1988 through 2021 under a Conditional Use Permit by Friends of Infant Stimulation, Inc.,to
operate a program for special needs infants. This prior program had minimal impact on traffic
and there were a very small number of cars that regularly accessed the property during the
day, so we had no concerns about that previous use of the existing building. Even though the
current parking lot for the existing building has 22 spaces(exceeding maximum permitted by
six parking spaces),we don't recall more than a handful of cars ever using that parking lot at
the same time and never saw a high number of cars entering and exiting the property.
However,the current proposal includes the rezoning of the property from R-10 to Conditional
0-1 Office for the purposes of professional offices, such as medical offices and dental
offices. These types of offices can be high traffic frequency tenants with groups of patients
coming and going for appointments every twenty minutes to a half hour throughout the day.
Such high traffic offices are only appropriate for buildings and properties that directly connect
and access to major arterial roads. The current proposal is for these patients and clients to
access the rezoned "office" building from an entrance only from Millwood Road (residential
road), not directly from a major commercial road, such as North Great Neck Road.
Furthermore, patients for medical offices and dental offices,for example, can frequently run
late for appointments for procedures, so there is the risk of late patients speeding on
residential Millwood Road for overdue appointments as the only way to access the rezoned
"office" building of their provider. This is yet another reason that zoning should require that
office buildings need to only be accessed with an entrance directly from major commercial
arterial roads,which have greater law enforcement presence, not exclusively accessed
directly from a residential road, like Millwood Road.
In addition to the presence of children (nine in the morning and seven in the afternoon, as
confirmed by the school district) at a school bus stop adjacent to the proposed development
at Millwood Road and Selden Street, numerous pedestrians(adults and/or children)frequently
recreationally walk on Millwood Road,which has no sidewalks nor paved bicycle paths. Under
this proposal, patients and clients will be driving exclusively on residential Millwood Road
throughout the day to access the "office" building under the newly proposed Conditional 0-1
Office zoning and frequently encountering pedestrians and/or bicyclists on residential
Millwood Road without any sidewalks,stoplights, stop signs, or bicycle paths at the entrance
on Millwood Road to the planned development.
The proposal calls for widening the access entrance from Millwood Road to both the"office"
site and new five single family house development for emergency vehicle access. The
widened entrance will become directly across Millwood Street from the driveway of the
existing house at 2304 Millwood Road. Per the Planning Commission Staff report,the City's
owns Traffic Engineering staff projects that 50 average daily trips for the five-lot new single-
family subdivision and 46 average daily trips for the office use for a total of 96 daily trips.
Planning Commissioners, please ask yourselves the following question: How would you like a
widened entrance directly across the driveway of your house to a busy office building and five
home subdivision with 96 cars coming and going throughout the day?
The existing R-10 zoning of the current structure already permits the use of"childcare centers
or childcare education centers in conjunction with public or private elementary schools."
Childcare centers,for example,would be subject to traffic at set predictable times with longer
duration between cars coming and going versus the high frequency short duration usage
throughout the day of busy professional offices, such as medical and dental offices.
Therefore, already permitted childcare centers under the existing R-10 zoning would have less
adverse traffic impact throughout the day than busy professional offices under Commercial 0-
1 Office zoning upon the Great Neck Estates neighborhood.
The existing R-10 zoning of the property supports a lower adverse traffic impact on the existing
residential Great Neck Estates neighborhood rather than using the Great Neck Estates
neighborhood as the sole exclusive passageway to access the newly proposed redesignated
Commercial 0-1 Office zoned property. In conclusion,we request that the existing R-10
zoning of the current structure be retained, and please accordingly reject the conversion of the
property located at 1445 North Great Neck Road &2307 Millwood Road to a Commercial 0-1
Office zone.
We thank you for your service to our community. Thank you for your consideration of this
critical matter.
Sincerely,
Arijit Dutta and Sucharita Dutta

Dear Planning Commission and City Council,
I have lived in Great Neck Estates since 1978, and am here because of it's beauty, safety, quiet and
natural environment. Please note that I AM TOTALLY OPPOSED to rezoning the front area of Great
Neck Estates to Business Zoning.
We value being part of the Suburban Areas of Virginia Beach, according to the Com[prehensive
Plan. This City is, I hope, committed to enhance or maintain existing neighborhoods in its Suburban
Area.
Contrarily,the plan as presented significantly degrades our community and devalues properties of
an established neighborhood for the purpose of serving the best interests of two private entities.
If our City Zoning Code is intended to protect and promote the health, safety and general welfare of
the people,you need to look seriously at the plan, as presented!!!
The Code should also protect and improve the quality of the waters.
This proposed plan does NOT encourage the best purposes of the land and the lake. It threatens all
Suburban Areas throughout Virginia Beach by violating the zoning ordinance and the Comprehensive
Plan.
I believe there is a threat to my quality of life in Great Neck Estates, devaluation of my property, as
well as the threat of floods when open areas are built on and paved. Please use your integrity and
your commitment to improve, not degrade, my neighborhood and our City, and oppose the plan.

Virginia beach, VB. 23454
Dear Mayor Dyer and city council members,
My name is Carol Watkins and I have lived in Great Neck Estates for almost 30 years. I am
writing this letter to express my strong opposition to the proposal of rezoning a parcel of the
Wycliffe Presbyterian property to build housing and rezoning another parcel for office space.
First: I understand the proposed plans are to build 5 houses on the front of our entrance
backing up to great neck road. While I understand the need for more housing in Virginia
beach, I feel this proposed plan would have a very negative impact by leading to increased
traffic congestion in and out of our neighborhood as well as the design of these houses being
build by Bishard simply are not in keeping with the character of our neighborhood or on the
great neck corridor.
Second:The proposed plan to add to the existing A-
frame structure for office as well a widening of the existing driveway where there will be very
little buffer between Lake Conrad 2 is a cause for concerns of excess runoff and pollutants
from more paved areas.
In conclusion I strongly urge you to reconsider this propose housing and office space as it
would greatly alter the aesthetic of our neighborhood and replace beautiful green space that is
homes for our wildlife. We in Great Neck love and appreciate our wildlife.At the rate our city
council is going,the foxes, opossums, and raccoons will have to live in our garages.
Thank you for your attention to this matter.
Sincerely,
Carol Watkins

I have been a resident in the Laurel Cove neighborhood off Great Neck Road since
1998. 1 have just reviewed the presentation regarding the proposed rezoning and
construction on part of the property currently owned by Wycliffe Church.
I strongly disagree with the proposal for a few specific reasons:
1 . Adding a large area (road, driveways, buildings) of impervious surface WILL add
to the burden on the storm water facilities of the series of Lake Conrads. This is
counter to the statements and intent City Council made and agreed to when the funds
were being discussed for storm water upgrades city wide.
2. Wording in the presentation mentions protecting the western portion of the
proposed division "...to the greatest extent possible...". These few words open the
door widely for encroachment and reduction or elimination of the "pond" which is a
registered storm water facility.
3. The current sediment infiltration and street / parking lot pollution that has been
damaging to all of the lakes will be increased and continue to degrade the water
quality.
4. Great Neck Estates does not have a neighborhood park-, this area has been used
for decades for recreation, appreciation of wildlife, and a place to quietly
contemplate.
I have reviewed informal notes after an assessment of the water quality of Lake
Conrad #1 and Lake Conrad #3 was completed. Low dissolved 02 and high nitrogen
and potassium are present. This project will make them worse.
Having lived here since 1998 and seeing the erosion of one of the spillways,
significantly increased algae and weed "islands", and informing the city when water
overflows the entire dam and nothing is done is beyond insulting. I and many
neighbors who are physically able to do so spend untold hours treating the invasive
growth, pull literally tons of weeds and debris, and help our neighbors who are elderly
in maintaining the areas they own. The city has done nothing except threaten us with
fines.
You have a difficult job. The developer is offering cash to offset the damage they will
do to Great Neck Estates, and all residents on the lakes, yet the neighborhood will not
benefit. There is much mention of maintaining or enhancing neighborhoods. How
does any of this maintain or enhance the surrounding neighborhoods?
Unfortunately I anticipate nearly all of you recommending approval and the City
Council allowing it to move forward. After years of inaction and threats why assume
anything else?
To the few who do not support this I thanks you for keeping residents at the forefront
vs developers. The rest of you have lost your way.

City Council Members:
My family has lived on Great Neck Lake since 1973, and we strongly object to the planned
development of the property adjacent to Wycliffe Presbyterian Church on Great Neck Road
for the following reasons:
1. It will damage the short-and long-term health of Great Neck Lake which we have
carefully nurtured and preserved for decades.
2. It will damage the health of the other, smaller lake, Lake Conrad, as well.
3. It will cause property values to fall in Great Neck Estates.
After years of sitting on City wait lists,our lakefront property owners spent thousands of
dollars each two years ago to dredge our coves to enable small boats to maneuver and for the
health of the lake and the creatures in and around the lake. And much of our lake association
dues go to maintaining the lake water quality, flora and fauna.
Why should our nonprofit lake association incur expensive costs to repair a very small crack
in the dam spillway when the development's planned parking lot(nonpermeable surfaces) and
reduced vegetation buffer will cause the crack to expand, cause more erosion of property
owners' yards and force more runoff and sediment into the lake?
Why should we endure our consistent, diligent stewardship being destroyed by thoughtless
greed and disregard for the environment?
And frankly,why should we have to endure our hard-earned money having to be spent over
and over again to maintain our peaceful lake?It's not right,and it's not fair.
We urge you to vote to stop this development for good. Thank you.

To Whom It May Concern,
Good morning. I was hoping to attend today's meeting, but I have a pressing business
obligation that will prevent me doing so. My wife and I have lived in Great Neck Estates,
and we raised two boys here and this neighborhood holds a special place in our hearts and
lives. I wanted to write you to let you know of our opposition to the ill-conceived
development of the Red Bridge property.
There are many facets of this project that do not pass a vetting of the proper channels.
From the beginning this project has been shrouded in backdoor tactics. The lawyer has
misrepresented himself numerous times when meeting with Great Neck Estates residents
at Wycliffe Church and then again at City Planning and City Council meetings. I became
clear to me that he and the developer pander to the City Council and that this relationship is
reciprocal. Secondarily Wycliffe has operated as non-profit religious organization for 60
years but is now a commercial and real estate entity. Are the local, state, and federal tax
accessors aware of this situation?
The biggest objection is the effect on the residents of Great Neck Estates, Great Neck
Manor, and the Reserve. There are well over 450 homes that will have their daily quality of
life interrupted in the immediate future and the possibility of flooding in the aftermath of this
development that is very concerning. And why, because an overzealous developer wants to
build 5 homes and a commercial building smack in the middle of a residential area. Wycliffe
church sates that they no longer need to sell the property, the residents of the three
mentioned neighborhoods don't want to see the property developed and the repercussions
of developing this area with no regard for flooding, traffic flow and a lack of open space for
these communities is glaring. Again, hundreds of residents being impacted daily for a single
developer to build 5 houses, borders on criminal.
I would urge City Planning and City Council to exercise common sense and see this
situation for what it is. Do not develop in this residential neighborhood. You have an
opportunity to serve the people of Virginia Beach in a fair and ethical manor, please do not
fail us and Virginia Beach residents.
Respectfully,
Jamie Curran

CITY OF VIRGINIA BEACH
AGENDA ITEM
ITEM: CARL R. ELLIS, JR. [Applicant & Property Owner] Subdivision Variance
(Section 4.4 (b) of the Subdivision Regulations) for the property located at
2620 Broad Bay Road (GPIN 1499688214). COUNCIL DISTRICT 8
MEETING DATE: April 16, 2024
■ Background:
The existing lot was created by deed in 1952, prior to the adoption of the City's
Subdivision Regulations. Lot 8 is currently developed with a single-family dwelling.
The applicant seeks to subdivide the lot into two single-family dwelling lots. A
Subdivision Variance to Section 4.4 (b) of the Subdivision Regulations is needed
as the two proposed lots will not meet the lot width requirement of 80 feet,
measured at the 30-foot front yard setback. Proposed Lot 8A is deficient by 0.97
feet and proposed Lot 8B is deficient by 1 .49 feet. Since the Subdivision
Regulations require a 50-foot right-of-way width and the current right-of-way width
on this portion of Broad Bay Road is 40 feet, the applicant is proposing a 5-foot
right-of-way reservation, which will be dedicated prior to the development of these
lots.
The proposed home styles provide high quality and attractive buildings that will be
compatible with the variety of housing sizes and styles in this area.
Except for the lot width, the proposed lots meet all the dimensional standards for
property zoned R-10 Residential District.
■ Considerations:
Section 9.3 of the Subdivision Regulations provide criteria for which City Council
may grant Subdivision Variance requests. The Planning Commission concurred
with Staff's recommendation of the approval of this request. The applicant has
agreed to Condition 3 that the dedication for the road width will occur after the plat
is recorded and prior to any development of the lots.
Further details pertaining to the application, as well as Staff's evaluation, are
provided in the attached Staff Report. Seven (7) letters of support and thirty (30)
letters of opposition were received for this application. Three (3) speakers were in
attendance at the Planning Commission hearing and expressed concerns that the
new homes will change the look and feel of the neighborhood, decrease property
values, and affect the privacy of surrounding neighbors.
Carl R. Ellis, Jr.

■ Recommendation:
On March 13, 2024, the Planning Commission passed a motion to recommend
approval of this request by a vote of 8 to 2.

Beach, subject to the review and approval of the Department of Planning &

City Council and is on file with the Department of Planning & Community
Development.
2. The exterior of the proposing residential dwellings shall substantially adhere in

Background SummaryofProposal
• The subject lot is zoned R-10 Residential District and is currently developed with a single-family dwelling.The lot was
established by plat in March 1952 (M.B. 29, PG.48), prior to the adoption of the City's Subdivision and Zoning
Ordinances.
• The applicant seeks to subdivide the property to create two residential lots. While both lots would meet the 10,000
square foot minimum lot area requirement,the lots will not meet the lot width requirement of 80 feet measured at
the 30-foot front yard setback. Therefore, a variance to Section 4.4(b) of the Subdivision Regulations is required.
• As shown below,the proposed lots, Lots 8A and 86, meet the dimensional standards for properties in the R-10
Residential District, except for the minimum lot width requirement.

Evaluation • • •
Section 9.3 of the Subdivision Regulations states:
No variance shall be authorized by the Council unless it finds that:
A. Strict application of the ordinance would produce undue hardship.
B. The authorization of the variance will not be of substantial detriment to adjacent property, and the
character of the neighborhood will not be adversely affected.
Carl R. Ellis,Jr.
Agenda Item 10
Page 2
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 request to address the reduction in lot width for Lots 8A and 8B is, in Staff's opinion, acceptable.Staff believes the
proposed lots will not be out of character with the surrounding area and finds the variance request to be compliant with
the conditions of Section 9.3 and consistent with the Comprehensive Plan's vision for the Suburban Area. Development
within this area focuses on creating and maintaining great neighborhoods.Achieving this goal reflects on the ability for
developments to maintain and enhance the existing neighborhood,to be compatible with surroundings,and provide
quality and attractive buildings with effective buffering and livability. Staff finds the proposed buildings to be high
quality and attractive. Condition 2 is recommended to ensure that the design and exterior building materials shown are
developed in substantial conformance to the elevations, as conditioned.
As stated previously, it is the intent of the applicant to subdivide the 23,681 square foot site into two lots for the
development of two single-family dwellings,which requires a variance to the lot width requirement of 80 feet. Proposed
Lots 8A and 8B meet all the dimensional requirements of the Zoning Ordinance for the R-10 Residential District, except
for the lot width requirement, both of which are just shy of the required 80 feet. Section 4.1 (m) of the Subdivision
Regulations, requires a 50-foot right-of-way width; however, the existing right-of-way is currently 40-feet wide, as
originally platted in MB 29, PG 48. The applicant has agreed to provide a five-foot right-of-way reservation, as noted in
Condition 3. The applicant is agreeable to this condition that the reservation for the road width will occur and will take
place immediately after the plat is recorded and prior to any development of the lots. A reservation for this future
dedication will be shown on the subdivision plat.
Based on these considerations,Staff recommends approval of this request with the conditions listed below.
Recommended Conditions
1. The applicant/owner shall submit a subdivision plat to the City of Virginia Beach,subject to the review and approval

Virginia Beach Planning Commission
March 13, 2024, Public Meeting
Agenda Item # 10
Carl R Ellis, Jr
RECOMMENDED FOR APPROVAL
Madam Clerk: Okay, our next agenda item is agenda item number 10, Carl R. Ellis Jr., a
subdivision variance of section 4.4(b) of the subdivision regulations at 2620 Broad Bay
Road in District 8.
Mr. Bourdon: Madam Chair, members of the Planning Commission, Eddie Bourdon
Virginia Beach attorney represent Dr. Carl Ellis Jr. who's the applicant on this case. I
have given you all, provided you all a lot of handouts. I think it's extremely important that
you take a moment or two to review them. I'm going to discuss them with you. But start
with very simply, Ms. Ellis has owned this property for many, many years. It is a parcel
that was created on the original subdivision plat of Broad Bay Colony, which I've given
you a copy of.
It happens to also share its western boundary with a prior subdivision, different
subdivision, different development called Broad Bay Point, and at that, where the two
come together, the two parcels that were developed by separate developers on separate
flats, you'll notice that the road, which I've circled on that plat in orange makes an extreme
immediate turn to the northeast, and not even a turn, and creates a situation that is really
the contributor to the need for this one de minimis little variance.
You'll note that the two lies to be created both exceed in one case by 2,750 square feet,
and the other by 924 square feet, the minimum lot size. The street frontage, you will also
note 85.02 feet and 84.77 feet. It is only at the setback that one is a little less than a foot
short, and the other is a little less than a foot, and a half short, but the lots are well, much
larger than, than the 10,000 foot requirement. The homes are very attractive. They're
also will be expensive, and they're also in keeping with the redevelopment that has been
occurring over decades in both Broad Bay Colony and Broad Bay Point. Staff
recommendation is acceptable.
The conditions are acceptable. Most importantly, this is what has been an ongoing
redevelopment over many, many, many years. You will note on what I handed out to you,
a lot of lots that are, outlined in yellow, and have either the 1, 2, 3 for the 3 that were the
3 subdivisions, 1 being a 3 lot, other two being 2 lot, re-subdivisions that were done from
the original platted lots, and the others labeled A through G being subdivisions of existing
original lots under these plats that were subdivided into two lots of which there are I
believe 22. There are 22 current lots just on this little postage stamp on the composite
map.
That are highlighted, that were subdivisions of the original parcels as platted in in the plats
that I gave you, and I've highlighted those original on those two plats as well. This is
absolutely the way that the newer, more valuable homes have developed at, and not on
slabs, but up, and let me hasten to answer a question that was asked this morning. This
property, the only CVPA impact is on the front. Of the property, not where the houses
are to be built. There's no RPA encroachment at all with these two lots. The property
next door, I've labeled G, and I've provided you with the subdivision plat of that property
that was done in the year 2000.
That piece of property had just barely 20, 000 square feet, and two lots that were created
that just barely get over the 10,000 square feet. Very, very much similar to these only
smaller. No right-of-way dedication or reservation, even though the subdivision order is
the same then as it is now, was required. Had it been, they wouldn't have had, 10,000
square feet per lot. The lot that's labeled one, the two lot subdivision there, there's no
road frontage. That was a variance for that one. The variances on lot two, or the variance
on lot two was for a 70 feet lot width, instead of a 80 feet lot with granted, and again the
three, which is kind of off the side Bay Road that also was a lot frontage variance to not
lot frontage, on a public street.
So, the notion that this is somehow, I'm going to set some precedent, not at all. This is
the type of organic redevelopment that we're blessed in the City of Virginia Beach to have.
This property has been zoned R-10 since we got, since we've had zoning. It just so
happens that it was platted before we had zoning or subdivision ordinance, if we'd had a
zoning and a subdivision ordinance, the issue with the starting of this plat, and the road
the way it begins, which creates the problem would not have occurred, but we didn't have
a subdivision ordinance when these subdivisions were put to record back in the early
1950s, but the simple fact of the matter is there, of the people who, and I've given you
petitions of folks who are in favor of this application, the folks who've given you opposition,
13 of those people that y'all had the map bought this morning with the stars, 13 of those
are on lots that are re-subdivisions of original lots, and these roads are not 50 foot roads
on Bay Island, they're narrower right of ways, and the value difference is incredible.
The property adjacent that I've listed is G. It's given you the addresses, and it's got, it's
got actually a picture of both of the houses. The original, before it was subdivided into
two lots, the land was valued at 100,000, just the land, and the, the year after it was
subdivided, each lot was worth 130,000 or 260,000. The houses on those lots today, the
lots are worth 400 or assessed at $431,000 to $432,000 each, and the total values are
$790 and $770. The lots at number two, those lots are all and the houses are all well
over a million, and when the property was subdivided into three lots, the value of the
whole thing was in the mid-four range. So it's organic redevelopment, and the houses
that were built originally have zero stormwater.
There was no stormwater ordinance for many years after these plats, even after we had
zoning. So the redevelopment, as it's been occurring, at least on those lots, there is, and
they will be required for quality reasons, for stormwater quality, they will have to
implement BMP's for that. They're not on site holding of the water, other than to meet the
quality requirements. So that's another benefit. So there will be stormwater quality
benefit, by the redevelopment of this lot, just as been the case with the majority of the
other ones that are noted on the exhibit I have passed out to everyone, and so just to be
clear, when I read this petition, there's a lot of things in there that are just not factually
accurate with the history of these properties, and these two subdivisions on the Bay
Island, and these will be high quality homes that will not do anything other than. The
negative is, it continues to increase in property values, and the taxes that along with it. I
will be happy to answer any questions?
Ms. Cuellar: Thank you. Are there any questions? Mr. Mauch?
Mr. Mauch: How many of the 22 previously subdivided lots are opposed to subdividing?
Mr. Bourdon; There're 13, that I counted on the map, because I had all those map. There
were 13 of those including Ms. Black, who subdivided lots directly adjacent to Dr. Ellis.
Ms. Black tried to get Dr. Ellis to provide her with some additional land because the initial
survey that she had done on her property actually indicate that she had less than 10,000
square feet. Then she had another surveyor go out and survey it to determine that she
had a little more than 10,000 square feet, but Dr. Ellis knew that, you know, if he was
gonna subdivide what she planned on doing he needed every inch of the width, so he
couldn't give her property off of his east side, so she would have 10,000, but then, a
surveyor certified that she did have 10,000, a little over 10,000, but that was without
having to do any right-of-way dedication, which Dr. Ellis is able to do.
Mr. Mauch: Maybe this is for staff, but with what he's provided about this being done
before a President already being there? Is that the case in your eyes?
Ms. Cuellar: I don't have a copy of what was provided because I wanted to make sure
there was enough for the group.
Mr. Mauch: You can answer that question after review. You don't have to wait. Seems
like Commissioner Byler might have a question in the meantime.
Ms. Cuellar: Commissioner Byler.
Ms. Byler: Attorney Bourdon, you indicate if I heard correctly that there were 13 other lots
of this, and they're now opposing, but in fact, they're sitting on redeveloped lofts, correct?
Mr. Bourdon: Thirteen of the people who sent in the form letters, they all sent in, are
people who live in houses on lots that were created by dividing the original lots.
Ms. Byler: Previously re-subdivided. So are all 13 of those lots that did not meet the
minimum 80 foot width requirement?
Mr. Bourdon: No, I didn't suggest that. I didn't suggest that. It's a character of the
neighborhood argument, and that they'll devalue, that there'll be cheap lots, that those,
that are set forth, but there are three just in this area. There are others, there are others
on Bay Island. These aren't the only three that were approved, these subdivisions that
were approved with variances either. There are other, this, I just used this --just this little
subset. There are plenty more. I didn't do the whole, you know, the whole Bay Island.
This was sufficient to show that it's, it's in character with and it's, again, it, these lots, you
know, these two lots are well over 10,000 square feet versus, and that's with giving the
city a right-of-way, you know, dedication,which couldn't be done next door. They wouldn't
have had -- they wouldn't have had 10,000 square feet, and these are lot.
Ms. Byler: Right. So they're in excess of the square footage requirement, but they still do
not meet the 80 feet width requirement.
Mr. Bourdon: Don't meet the 80 feet width at the 30 feet setback.
Ms. Byler: I just wanted to make sure we weren't-- that we were comparing different items
because they're not the same. Those 13 who objected.
Mr. Bourdon: People are free to object. I'm no one suggesting, that I didn't say they
couldn't object. I simply said that the basis for their objections stated in their form letter
isn't accurate. These aren't cheap lots. It's not changing the character of the
neighborhood. They're -- it's been going on in this neighborhood for decades, and will
continue to.
Ms. Byler: It's just that these lots don't meet the 80 feet required minimum. That's the
distinction. Some have been approved with variances because they don't meet street
frontage or lot width. Not just these three that are shown in, that the city has noted in that
area, there are others on the island that are in the same. Whether or not anyone, and I
didn't look. I mean, it's possible. I don't recall trying to make the determination, I was
looking in there, and you had the red stars up there, but actually, I do think that I am pretty
sure, one of them, but I had to look at the map with the red stars with the one they got the
70 foot, the lot, not the person objecting, that has the lot with the 70 feet frontage instead
on the opposite side of Broad Bay Road.
Ms. Cuellar: Any other questions? Madam clerk, do we have any speakers on this item?
Madam Clerk: Yes, ma'am, we have Stacy Lawler, followed by Robert Lawler.
Mr. Lawler: Good afternoon Planning Commission. My name is Rob Lawler. I'm a
homeowner at 2032 Long Creek Road in Bay Island. I live within 500 feet of the proposed
variance request to allow for the subdivision of a lot at 2620 Broad Bay Road to build two
homes. I am here to strongly oppose the subdivision and variance requests. I believe,
and my neighbors believe, this request sets an incredibly poor precedent for all planned
neighborhoods in Virginia Beach. All zoning laws are enacted for a purpose, and this is
especially true, for residential neighborhoods. When these laws are not protected, it
compromises the reason people purchase and invest in their communities. The existing
lot minimums are in place for a reason.
When you start compromising with variance, especially when it's significant, it's building
two homes on a lot zone for one, you put the integrity of all neighborhoods on a slippery
slope. It is very important to note, 30 neighbors within 500 feet of 2620 Broad Bay Island
are very much opposed to this variance request. Conversely, there is one residence
within 500 feet in favor. Simple math, 30 against, 1 in favor. All viewers sent copies. A
Form Letter that was personally signed, read, and commented on by the 30 people post
this variance request. These letters were mailed to Marchelle Coleman, Planning
Development City Planner, Virginia Beach on March 7th. Ms. Coleman said she would
forward these letters to the Planning Commission, and City Council for review prior to this
meeting. I'm assuming you all had a chance to review them. A few, or in this case, the
one, should not take precedence over the vast majority of neighbors near the property
who opposed this variance request. It's a simple argument. The laws are the laws.
Zoning laws are in place for a reason, and I'm asking, on behalf of myself, and the 30
people opposed to this variance, to simply maintain the integrity of the established zoning
laws in place. Thank you for your time.
Ms. Cuellar: Thank you very much.
Madam Clerk: Beth Dubinsky, and Dennis will follow Beth.
Ms. Dubinsky: Hello, my name is Beth Dubinsky, and I live at -- my husband and I
own 2030 Long Creek Road, and it is adjacent to 2620 Broad Bay Road. The handout
that I'm giving, Mr. Ellis Rick's house is in the middle. The Jarvis's house is next to the
White House, and then my house is the one that's pinned, so the majority of my backyard
butts up next to Rick's backyard. Both my husband and I, we strongly oppose this request
for the zoning variance to subdivide the property. I've only been on Long Creek Road
since about 2016, and we were drawn to the property because of the charm of the
neighborhood, and the privacy of the backyard. I respectfully disagree that the way of the
neighborhood is keeping those, you know, half acre lot, people are bulldozing and building
new, which is exactly what my husband and I did.
We moved into a house that was built in 62, bought it from the children of the original
owner, and much to our surprise, the none of the wiring, and the plumbing was up to
code, so we had to do something. We didn't even think to subdivide our lot. We wanted
to keep the integrity of the neighborhood and our privacy. I think it is an expectation that
when you buy a piece of property in an established neighborhood such as Bay Island,
that the property lines that have been there for decades will remain the same. Our
backyard, like I said, does directly face Mr. Ellis's backyard and the proposal that he has
to put the houses on there is going to, this two story house is going to directly overlook
our backyard, and I know that some houses are like that, and that they buy, you know,
but that's not the piece of property that we bought, and there's no guarantee how far back
on the property he's going to go.
I know in the letter that he sent to, you know, walked around the neighborhood, he said
that he was going to set the houses as far back as he could on the property, that's going
to be right up to my backyard. I would also like to point out that six of the seven letters in
support of the variance request live quite far away our pieces of property. There, you
know, some of them are almost a mile away, and that's not gonna affect their daily life
and their property. When they go out and sit in their backyard, they're not gonna worry,
you know, someone staring down at them. That's about all I have to say, and I just
appreciate the time today to speak and have you listen to my thoughts on this issue.
Ms. Cuellar: Thank you very much for being with us. Any questions?
Madam Clerk: Our last speaker is Dennis Janikowski.
Mr. Janikowski: Good afternoon. I'm Dennis Janikowski. Thank you for hearing my
perspective today. I am one of the people that is on the next door. I live next door to Rick
Ellis. I'm on the subdivided lot that Ms. Black separated years ago. Interestingly, on our
size of our lot, there's no windows on the side that were so close to Barbara Black, but
on the side of the house facing Rick Ellis, we've got bedroom windows, kitchen windows,
living room windows. So part of our personal concern is for our privacy. I have passed
out a few things that are maybe also discuss what the lawyer had brought up. For one, I
think when you, we bought on the island because when you drive around there, it has
character. There's one road in, one road out. The Planning Commission details did not
discuss traffic, but the city's been studying traffic and speeding on the island for the last
20 years, and it's a problem. They're about to put in eight speed tables in our
neighborhood.
So more density in our neighborhood is not super desirable to a lot of people. That's why
I think we focused, we went around and with the "Form Letter" and asked the neighbors,
the only neighbors within 500 feet. We didn't go out to friends and family that are
somewhere else in the neighborhood, and 30 people said that they were opposed to this.
They did not want increased density. They did not support the idea of dividing lots. So
one of those handouts has just probably the same thing your stars had, but it was
reflecting how many people within 500 feet that answered the door because not
everybody, the other people didn't oppose only one person. There were two people who
opposed, one of them changed their mind, and rather supported. One changed their mind
and opposed later on.
When it comes to the division of plats that the lawyer brought up, that may be true, or I
believe it's true, but I don't know when that happened, but if you drive around the island
today, you will see that there are certain homes that it looks like, yep, that's a split lot.
One of those handouts that's in there is, I think it's 2000 White Hill Road, and 2029
Hackberry. That's an example of a typical what people are doing when they split the lots.
When we moved into the island in 2003, we've been there 24 years. In 2001, we were
told there were 384 homes on the island. I've heard recently that there's 410. 1 can't
verify that, but it does say that there has been some precedent for splitting homes. What
you normally see when people split homes is they split it with a pretty big nicer home, or
they knock down a ranch, and they put a pretty big nice home on that ranch. One of those
drawings, I think the context if you just look at the plat that he's suggesting or wants to
build on, it doesn't consider the lots that are next door or nearby.
So I ask a CAD expert to draw that. I wanted to see what my land and my house looks
like right next to his, in part to understand the privacy implications, the flooding
implications, what we might have to do to put up landscaping. So we're not looking into
their yard, et cetera. Part of what we see in that drawing is a place in our yard. We're
like the low part of the saucer bowl. Where we have flooding is kind of right up close to
where his house is. So, if they raise the land or if water is not dripping through the way
that it does today, we risk increased flooding to our piece of land. I know we're going to
have to put in landscaping and suffer costs if we need to, add to the privacy that we have
today. So those are personal impacts. Most of what I've been thinking about over the
last weeks, and as I talked to all the neighbors was the precedent to the neighborhood.
One that drawing that has my house, and the two of his, you will see at least from a
Square footage of the footprint of the property. Ours is like 22,00 square feet, and the
property adjacent to us would be 1 ,530 square feet. So that's about 70%. That's also
70% of what he has on the property today. So, it's not putting a nice big house in there,
like is the precedent that I'm used to seeing on the island. Thank you very much.
Ms. Cuellar: Thank you very much for being here. Excuse me, we have a question.
Commissioner Plumlee.
Mr. Plumlee: Do you know if there's any private covenant restricting these lots from
subdivision or to a one-single family home?
Mr. Janikowski: I don't know if I said in my intro, but I'm an IT guy who happens to
live next door, and cares about our neighborhood, and I don't know about that.
Mr. Plumlee: But with regards to your title when you bought your house, you don't recall
there being a covenant saying this is restricted to one dwelling on this one lot?
Mr. Janikowski: No, but I mean, our yard so there was commentary about 20,000
square feet that got divided into two pieces and, both being, I guess, just barely above
10,000. We think rules are rules, and if it's 10,000, it's a good enough, if the minimum
wasn't good enough, it wouldn't be the minimum.
Mr. Plumlee: So it's not subdividing, it's just simply the size of the lot.
Mr. Janikowski: On our lot, I think you're asking.
Mr. Plumlee: With regards to this proposal, I don't want to mistake you. You're saying,
you object to it subdividing because of the size of the lot, not because of the actual
subdivide, was that fair?
Mr. Janikowski: We object to the division of the lot because it's not meeting the code.
There's no homeowner's association to enforce what is supposed to happen about the
look and feel of our neighborhood, except for the zoning laws. He does not rneet the
frontage requirement. There was commentary that we don't meet the frontage
requirement, but that must not have been a requirement when our house was built, so I
can't do anything about that.
Mr. Plumlee: Understood.
Ms. Cuellar: I think we needed this back. There's a little note.
Madam Clerk: That was our last speaker, Madam Chairman.
Ms. Cuellar: Thank you very much. Madam Clerk, did you say that was the last speaker?
Okay, thank you. I'd like to open this up for discussion.
Mr. Bourdon: So just to be clear, there is no, there are no deed restrictions that restrict
the division of lots in either of these two original neighborhoods, and these homes that
are proposed will meet all setback requirements, and they don't exceed or even get to the
height limit. The issue or the concern about, somebody being to look into your backyard
that exists everywhere, and there's again, there's nothing non-conforming about these
two lots, other than the width at the 30 feet setback, which is caused by the way the road
was platted, which is a hardship, and it's unique to this piece of property. These issues
sometimes, unfortunately, turn into popularity contests, but land use isn't a popularity
contest.
The fact that Dr. Ellis is not building a super large house, is then used as an objection. I
don't quite get that. He could have built a bigger house, and have more rooms looking
across the fence, or whatever the case may be, but the orientation, and the gentleman
who spoke his, where he lives was one of the last that was subdivided. I don't believe,
and I didn't assert that it didn't meet the lot square footage, nor the lot width from my, from
what I understand. It's one on the opposite side of the street from him that that's the case,
and didn't have the frontage on the street. There's been a varying interpretation over the
years as to whether these streets, the side streets or public streets or not, and that's one
of the reasons why there are a whole lot of variances on the island that aren't just shown
here, because they, for many years, were not treated as being public streets.
So, you're getting variances to split lots that didn't even have frontage on a public street,
because the City didn't maintain them because they were way below the required width
the street. That's not the case with this application at all, and as is demonstrated this
issue that it's somehow going to be, you know, other than privacy, which isn't something
that land use doesn't give you the right to restrict, what someone else can do on their
property that might look into or be able to see whether they're looking or not, is irrelevant
into your backyard. So, staffs recommendation is consistent with the development
pattern that has taken place here. The variance is de minimis, and it will have no impact
on the location of the dwellings on either lot at all, and again, the lots aren't being overbuilt
at all, and there is no CVPA impact at all. Happy to answer any questions
Ms. Cuellar: Commissioner Mauch?
Mr. Mauch: I just wanted to get clarification on what he had said earlier, and I think y'all
have had some time to research. What were the, was what he said, have there been
multiple variances in this similar fashion?
Ms. Gordon: Yes, there have been. We've looked just within about a 500 foot radius
across the street on Broad Bay is the variance we spoke about this morning that has
seven foot. There were three lots, and there was a seven foot deficiency, then there are
other lots, maybe four more or four applications that encompass multiple lots, that either
had no frontage on a public street, they are on private streets, or they constituted a flag
lot.
Mr. Mauch: Were there any that had multiple variances on multiple lots or variances on
multiple lots?
Ms. Gordon: Yes, there are some on Hackberry, Bay Road. As Mr. Bourdon mentioned
some of these are private streets, so there is no frontage on a public street irl those cases,
and they cover multiple lots.
Mr. Bourdon: I could add, we could have done this, so that one of the lots didn't need a
variance and the other one did. I mean, the number, I mean, we tried to keep them so
they were as absolutely close to everything as we could. That's why they're so de
minimis. But, you know, that's the reason for it. Again, it's because of the !strange angle
of the road that we have this issue.
Ms. Cuellar: Mr. Anderson.
Mr. Anderson: Ms. Gordon, I don't think this matters too much, but I'm just curious.
Is Dr. Ellis planning on living in one of these houses and selling the other?
Mr. Bourdon: Yeah, yes, he is, yes, and he's in Richmond. He is testifying in a court
hearing today. He wanted to be here, but, he hoped it would get settled, but it didn't get
settled. But yes, that's correct.
Ms. Cuellar: Thank you. Now we'll open it for discussion.
Mr. Plumlee: I'll just put my thoughts in real quick. I think when it comes to the
architectural character of a neighborhood, you look to the originators of the neighborhood.
Typically, when there is an intent to restrict the size of the lots to one home, you'll find a
private covenant even going back to the 40's and 50's before there was a City of Virginia
Beach. Then the city overlays its policy of keeping the architectural character of a
neighborhood. I've been through Broad Bay Island many times, and I've seen it, I think
what is really unique about it is that it doesn't have a uniform character.
There is not monotony in the design, and I don't find it offensive to subdivide this lot, to
accommodate these, and make the small variance. There have been plenty of variances,
so when we talk about precedence, I ask, what did the people who develop this
neighborhood intend? It doesn't appear as though they intended to restrict these from
being subdivided or they would have made -- many neighborhoods in Virginia Beach,
have private covenants restricting the subdivision.
There was a famous case Judge Morgan, who's now deceased, took all the way to the
Supreme Court of Virginia trying to subdivide his lot in Bay Colony, but there was a private
covenant on the property, and the Supreme Court upheld it, and even a federally
appointed lifetime appointment couldn't overcome that straight up law. So, I would
support this.
Ms. Cuellar: Is there any other discussion? So I just wanted to comment, this is in my
district. I find the opposition to be significant. I do think it's important that we respect our
current zoning standards. So I'll be opposing this today. So, do we have a motion?

I love the idea. If there is room why not do it. Two brand new homes will only increase the value of others around the
island and I think it would look great.
Sorry I don't use the Fb messenger a lot but email and text is easiest or cell sir
Thanks!

From: Richard Morris— Resident of Broad Bay Island for 47 years and Past
President of the Broad Bay Island Civic League
Please know that I've known Rick Ellis and his family for almost as long as I've
lived on Broad Bay Island.
I've supported his request for a variance for all the reasons he's presented, and I
hope you will too.
If anyone from council would like to speak with me or have me appear before the
council I will be happy to do so. Thank you,

Memorandum For Planning Administration and City Council Members:
This letter serves as an understanding that as a resident/owner of property on Broad
Bay Island who lives within 500 feet of 2620 Broad Bay Road, I strongly oppose any
subdivision & variance request of 2620 Broad Bay Road for the following reasons:
1. This variance would inherently change the look & feel of our neighborhood.
2. This variance would set a precedent to our existing zoning laws thus adversely
changing the future complexion of our planned neighborhood which has existed
for over 60 years.
3. Our existing lot minimums (R-10) were established by neighborhood design.
Changing them could lead to City-wide interest in revising current code and/or
lot requirements. Homes were purchased (in part) because of existing zoning
laws and neighborhood "feel". The fundamental changes would negate the
reasons existing owners bought and invested in this neighborhood.
4. This would negatively impact existing nearby home values by introducing
lower-cost lots & smaller homes.
5. When homes are built closer together than the original Broad Bay
Colony/Broad Bay Island plan, it affects the surrounding neighbors' privacy
and views.
6. If allowed, additional homes in the neighborhood would require additional
support infrastructure. Our planned neighborhood was not designed to support
the potential increase. There are currently ---410 homes on Broad Bay Island.

1. This variance would inherently change the look & feel of our neighborhood.
2. This variance would set a precedent to our existing zoning laws thus adversely
changing the future complexion of our planned neighborhood which has existed
for over 60 years.
3. Our existing lot minimums (R-10) were established by neighborhood design.
Changing them could lead to City-wide interest in revising current code and/or
lot requirements. Homes were purchased (in part) because of existing zoning
laws and neighborhood "feel". The fundamental changes would negate the
reasons existing owners bought and invested in this neighborhood.
4. This would negatively impact existing nearby home values by introducing
lower-cost lots & smaller homes.
5. When homes are built closer together than the original Broad Bay
Colony/Broad Bay Island plan, it affects the surrounding neighbors' privacy
and views.
6. If allowed, additional homes in the neighborhood would require additional
support infrastructure. Our planned neighborhood was not designed to support
the potential increase. There are currently -410 homes on Broad Bay Island.

CITY OF VIRGINIA BEACH
AGENDA ITEM
ITEM: Ordinance Approving Application of Virginia Beach AVA RE, LLC for the Closure
of Approximately 813 sq. ft. of an Unnamed, Unimproved Right-of-Way Located
Adjacent to 2375 Virginia Beach Blvd.
MEETING DATE: April 16, 2024
(Referred Back to the Planning Commission on February 20, 2024)
■ Background:
Virginia Beach AVA RE, LLC, a Virginia limited liability company (the "Applicant"),
requested the closure of approximately 813 sq. ft. of an unnamed, unimproved
right-of-way (the "Right-of-Way"), adjacent to its property located at 2375 Virginia
Beach Blvd., for the purpose of incorporating the closed area into its adjoining
property.
The application of the adjacent property owner for the closure of the remaining
5,751 sq. ft. portion of the unnamed, unimproved right-of-way was approved by
City Council on February 20, 2024.
■ Considerations:
This item was on City Council's agenda on February 20, 2024; however, due to an
advertising error, this application was referred back to the Planning Commission
for consideration.
The Viewers determined that the closure of the Right-of-Way, with conditions set
forth below, will not result in any public inconvenience. There was no opposition to
the request.
■ Recommendation:
On March 13, 2024, the Planning Commission passed a motion by a recorded vote
of 10-0 to recommend this request to City Council, with the following conditions:
1. The City Attorney's Office shall make the final determination regarding
ownership of the underlying fee. The purchase price to be paid to the City shall
be determined according to the "Policy Regarding Purchase of City's Interest
in Streets Pursuant to Street Closures," approved by City Council.
2. The Applicant, or the Applicant's successors and assigns, shall resubdivide the
property and vacate internal lot lines to incorporate the Right-of-Way into the
Virginia Beach AVA RE, LLC
Page 2 of 2
adjoining lots. The resubdivision plat must be submitted and approved for
recordation prior to the final street closure approval.
3. The Applicant, or the Applicant's successors and assigns, shall verify that no
other private utilities exist within the Right-of-Way proposed for closure. If other
private utilities do exist, an easement satisfactory to the appropriate utility
company must be provided.
4. Closure of the Right-of-Way shall be contingent upon compliance with the
above stated conditions within 365 days of approval by City Council. If the
conditions noted above are not accomplished and the final plat is not approved
for recordation within one year of the City Council vote to close the Right-of-
Way this approval shall be considered null and void.

ITEM: BORN PRIMITIVE, LLC [Applicant] MODERN SAVAGE INVESTMENTS, LLC
[Property Owner] Modification of Proffers to a Conditional Rezoning for the
property located at 1489, 1477, & 1469 Virginia Beach Boulevard & two
parcels directly east of 1469 Virginia Beach Boulevard (GPINs
2417057714, 2417150755, 2417059705, 2417152724, 2417154801). COUNCIL
DISTRICT 6
MEETING DATE: April 16, 2024
■ Background:
Request by the applicant to modify the proffers associated with the 2004
Conditional Rezoning of the property from 0-2 Office District and R-5D Residential
Duplex District to Conditional 1-1 Light Industrial and the 2023 Modification of
Proffers in order to develop the site with an office warehouse.
More specifically, the applicant seeks to amend Proffer 2 and Proffer 3 to modify
the conceptual landscape plan and the building elevations associated with the
2023 approval. The applicant intends to increase the height of the building from
26 feet to 35 feet and add additional and larger windows to break up the mass of
the exterior fapade. Slight changes are also proposed to the company logo and
verbiage on the roof. The proffered landscape plan will be modified to enhance the
25-foot Category II Landscape Buffer along the southern and eastern property
lines, to soften the building's appearance from the adjacent residential properties.
The buffer will consist of a mixture of large shrubs, understory trees, and canopy
trees to provide a contiguous screening of plant material that grows to a height of
12 to 35 feet at maturity. This enhanced landscaping is in addition to the 8-foot tall
vinyl privacy fence previously proposed and approved within the buffer area.
■ Considerations:
The proposed office warehouse is generally consistent with the Comprehensive
Plan's land use policies for the Suburban Area and is compatible with the Navy
flight operations. The property is located within the greater than 75 dB DNL noise
zone and APZ-1, which prohibits the development of incompatible uses, including
residential uses. In Staff's opinion, and the Planning Commission concurred, this
is a low intensity use that will have minimal impacts on the surrounding community
since it will have minimal customer traffic, generally operates with little to no noise,
and typically operates between the hours of 9:00 a.m. and 6:00 p.m. To ensure the
use on this site remains compatible with Navy flight operations, Proffer 4 has been
Born Primitive, LLC
Page 2 of 3
offered by the applicant to limit the use of the property to an office warehouse
operation only.
The Special Area Development Guidelines for the Suburban Area calls for building
materials and colors that reflect and complement the character of the surrounding
area, with colors that accent rather than define the building. While the exterior of
the office space will include the branded colors of the company, it is a relatively
small portion of the structure the majority of which does not abut the residential
parcels. The accent colors may not be in full keeping with the guidelines for this
area, Staff is amendable to the proposed design, as the majority of the building will
be neutral in color and more in character with the surrounding properties. The
Special Area Design Guidelines also call for the building to be oriented to the street
for pedestrian connectivity with parking in the rear of the buildings. The applicant
believed that putting the majority of the parking closer to Virginia Beach Boulevard,
instead of the rear near the residences, would result in less impact to the adjacent
residential properties. Planning Commission had no objections to this proposed
layout.
Due to the success of the business, the applicant seeks to increase the height of
the building from 26 feet to 35 feet to allow for more clear height within the
warehouse for storage. With the proposed increase in building height, the intent of
the additional understory and canopy trees is to provide a more enhanced visual
buffer of the building fapade from the adjacent residential properties.
Further details pertaining to the application, as well as Staff's evaluation, are
provided in the attached staff report. There is no known opposition to this request.
■ Recommendation:
On March 13, 2024, the Planning Commission passed a motion to recommend
approval of this request by a vote of 10 to 0.
Proffer 1:
Proffer numbered two (2) set forth in the 2023 Proffers is hereby deleted and

Background & Summary of Proposal
• The applicant is requesting a Modification of Proffers to amend proffers associated with a 2004 Conditional
Rezoning and 2023 Modification of Proffers on this Conditional 1-1 Light Industrial District zoned property located
within the greater than 75 dB DNL noise zone and the Accidental Potential Zone 1(APZ-1) of the Air Installations
Compatible Use Zones (AICUZ).
• The applicant is requesting to modify Proffer 2 and Proffer 3 in the 2023 Proffers to implement the following
changes to the previously proffered conceptual landscape plan, building elevations and building renderings:
o The proffered landscape plan will be modified to enhance the 25-foot Category II Landscape Buffer along the
southern and eastern property lines.The buffer will now consist of a mixture of large shrubs, understory
trees, and canopy trees to provide a contiguous screening of plant material. Canopy trees will be installed at
1%2 inches to 2 inches caliper with a 35-foot height or greater a maturity, understory evergreen trees will be
installed at 6 feet and grow between 12 to 35 foot in height at maturity,and large shrubs will be installed at
3 to 4 feet in height and grow to 8 feet or greater at maturity.
o The building height will increase from 26 feet at the roof peak to 35 feet.
o Additional and larger windows have been added to break up the mass of the exterior facade.
o The company logo on the front fagade of the building,facing Virginia Beach Boulevard, has been slightly
modified, as well as the verbiage on the roof,as depicted.
• As shown on pages 9& 10 of this report,the building elevations will be comprised of red,white, and blue metal
panels to align with the company's branding.The side and rear elevations will be clad with gray metal panels and the
north elevation,which fronts Virginia Beach Boulevard,will include a gray stone veneer along the base of the
structure.
• As proffered,the Conceptual Landscape Plan shows the required building foundation, interior parking lot coverage,
and street frontage plantings along with the 25-foot-wide buffer with Category II landscape plantings to screen the
site from the residentially zoned properties to the south and east.
• The proposed hours of operation are 9:00 a.m.to 6:00 p.m. daily.

Evaluation & Recommendation
This request to modify the proffers to amend the conceptual landscape plan, building elevations, and renderings to
develop the site with an office warehouse is, in Staff's opinion, acceptable.The office warehouse is generally consistent
with the Comprehensive Plan's land use policies for the Suburban Area. A guiding principle for the Suburban Area is to
create "great neighborhoods,"which are stable and sustainable. In Staff's opinion,the proposed office warehouse is a
low intensity use that will have minimal customer traffic and generally operates with little to no noise.As stated
previously, operating hours are typically between the hours of 9:00 a.m.to 6:00 p.m.,which will have minimal impact on
the surrounding residential properties. While the Comprehensive Plan would generally recommend a lower building
height to better align with the adjacent residential dwellings, as previously mentioned,the applicant intends to install a
more substantial landscape buffer adjacent to the residential properties to better screen the proposed building from the
adjacent residences.
As stated previously,the property is located within the greater than 75 dB DNL noise zone and the APZ-1.The proposed
office warehouse use is consistent with the Comprehensive Plan's land use policies for this area and is compatible with
Naval flight operations.As indicated in Proffer 4,the use of the property shall only be developed as an office warehouse
operation.
Due to the success of the business,the applicant seeks to increase the height of the building from 26 feet to 35 feet to
allow for more clear height within the warehouse for storage. With the proposed increase in building height,Staff
recommended that the buffering along the southern property line be enhanced to consist of a mixture of large shrubs,
understory trees,and canopy trees spaced in a manner to provide a contiguous screening of plant material along the
entire property line, as shown on the modified conceptual landscape plan. In response,the applicant has included a
variety of large shrubs, understory trees,and canopy trees in the required buffer area. The intent of the understory and
canopy trees is to provide a more enhanced visual buffer of the building fa4ade from the adjacent residential properties
with species that mature to a height ranging from 12 feet to 35 feet.The applicant was amendable to this and has
proffered a revised conceptual landscape plan to implement these recommendations.
Based on the considerations provided above, Staff recommends approval of this request with the modified proffers
listed below.
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.

Comprehensive . . . •
The Comprehensive Plan recognizes this property as being within the "Suburban Area." Guiding principles have been
established in the Comprehensive Plan to guard against possible threats to the stability of the Suburban Area and to
provide a framework for neighbors and places that are increasingly vibrant and distinctive.The Plan's primary guiding
principle for the Suburban Area is to create"Great Neighborhoods,"and to support those neighborhoods with
complementary non-residential uses in such a way that ensures the stability and sustainability of the Suburban Area now
and in the future. Compatible infill development is encouraged, as long as the use is appropriate,and the building is in
scale with the surrounding area. Special Area Development Guidelines call for buildings to be oriented to the street and
designed to encourage pedestrian movement. Building massing and height should be appropriate to the surrounding
area,as well as provide visual and architectural interest through staggered building placement and varied rooflines.

WHEREAS,the Grantee's policy is to provide only for the orderly development of land for
various purposes through zoning and other land development legislation;and
WHEREAS, the Grantor acknowledges that competing and sometimes incompatible uses
conflict and that in order to permit differing uses on and in the area of the Property and at the same
time to recognize the effects of change, and the need for various types of uses, certain reasonable
conditions governing the use of the Property for the protection of the community that are not
generally applicable to land similarly zoned are needed to cope with the situation to which the
Grantor's proposed modification of conditions to the zoning gives rise;and
WHEREAS,the Grantor has voluntarily proffered,in writing, in advance of and prior to the
public hearing before the Grantee, as a part of the proposed modification to the existing zoning
conditions with respect to the Property,the following reasonable conditions related to the physical
development,operation,and use of the Property to be adopted,which conditions have a reasonable
relation to the proposed modification and the need for which is generated by the proposed
modification.

and other successors in title or interest, voluntarily and without any requirement by or exaction

until a subsequent amendment changes the zoning of the Property and specifically repeals such
conditions or further modifies the proffered conditions or restrictions to which the Property is

Agenda Item # 11
Born Primitive, LLC
RECOMMENDED FOR APPROVAL
Ms. Cuellar: Thank you. Okay, our next item number, number 11 .
Madam Clerk: Agenda item number 11, Born Primitive LLC is a modification of proffer's
request at 1489, 1477, and 1469 Virginia Beach Boulevard, and the two parcels directly
east of 1469 Virginia Beach Boulevard in District 6.
Mr. Bourdon: Thank you, Madam Chair. Thank you all very much. Madam Chair, Eddie
Bourdon, Virginia Beach attorney representing the applicant born primitive, and the parent
company, same ownership that just owns the land. This is a startup company here in
Virginia Beach, their Navy Seal, and some other former well actually is his, I think,
significant other, but they started this business in their house. They produce active wear,
and compete with the Nikes, but, they have created a very good, a very good following,
very good, and have grown exponentially, and all this was in the write up when we did
this a year ago, roughly, and unfortunately, I didn't bring all that with me today, but they
have, and they've gotten a grant from the Economic Development Authority they're,
they're, they have a small office, and they've been working, you know, with their
warehouse down off of, I think, Dam Neck Road.
So they're building this for their, future and for their growth, which is continuing to expand
and expand. When they were doing the final design going through the site plan their
architect said, you know, if you just raise this a little bit, you can put a whole another level
of storage that you get to with the lifts. Based on the way their business is growing, so
greatly that's the reason why we're here, just to have the building be a little bit taller. It's
not because there are going to be more people coming to it. It's a warehouse. The office
in the front, is no different than it was when it was approved before. It had been approved
for a series of flex suites, that late John Waller had gotten this property rezoned, and we
just came in, and modified his proffers. He never had developed the property, and made
it a better situation, and the building is not at the rear setback at all. It's in the middle of
the lot, so there's plenty of room.
We had an outreach the first time and one lady, all, everybody got noticed behind it, and
they're just two blocks up the street at the First Colonial Road, east of the First Colonial
Road entrance. They've got a building there that they're working out of temporarily, and
she came, but she had talked to all of her neighbors went back, and took all the plans, all
the neighbors, and got back to say everybody thinks it's great, and so we didn't do that
again. I mean, I didn't feel it was necessary to go back, and talk to them, and they didn't.
No one at any opposition before, and I don't believe any of anybody does today.
Mr. Plumlee: Just the reason why I didn't want to put this through consent as I think we
put it through consent in April of last year, something like that, and there hadn't been a
word from anyone in my district about this, but then construction hadn't started, and there
hadn't been any breaking of the ground or any calling attention to it, so I felt as though
we should at least have a hearing today to allow people to have time if they're able, you
know, to get out here. I've not heard any objection to it, and I support it, and I appreciate
business going in this corridor. We need business in this corridor, but I didn't want to
deny the people of my district an opportunity to come forward at least, and have the public
hearing. So, thank you.
Mr. Bourdon: I appreciate it, and they have, as Marshall told you, they have
instantaneously agreed to do all the additional landscaping that that staff requested.
Ms. Cuellar: Thank you very much. I can open up the floor for discussion, or I can
entertain a motion.
Mr. Plumlee: I'll move to approve.
Ms. Byler: Second.
Ms. Cuellar: Are there any commissioners abstaining? We have a motion by
Commissioner Plumlee, a second by Commissioner Byler.
Madam Clerk: The vote is now open. By a vote of 10 to 0, agenda item number 11 has
been recommended for approval.

VIRGINIA [Applicant] USA ENTERTAINMENT, LC [Property Owner]
Conditional Rezoning (Conditional B-2 Community Business District to
Conditional 1-1 Light Industrial District) & Conditional Use Permit (Bulk
Storage Yard) for the property located at 1585 Dam Neck Road (GPIN
2405848720) COUNCIL DISTRICT 5
MEETING DATE: April 16, 2024
■ Background:
The applicant, Dominion Energy, seeks to rezone 13.8 acres from Conditional B-2
Community Business District to Conditional 1-1 Light Industrial District to construct
an office/warehouse building. In conjunction with the rezoning request, the
applicant is seeking a Conditional Use Permit request for a Bulk Storage Yard to
store equipment used to support transmission operations in the area. The property
is located on Dam Neck Rd, adjacent to the Corporate Landing Business Park and
is located within the greater than 75 dB DNL noise zone of AICUZ.
The property was previously rezoned in 1996 from AG-1 Agricultural District to
Conditional B-2 along with a Conditional Use Permit to construct and operate an
Indoor Recreation Facility; however, the facility was never constructed and the site
remains wooded today.
Temporary access to the site is proposed from Dam Neck Road; however, upon
completion of Twin Mills Road to the west, the Dam Neck Road access will be
closed and permanent access will be established on Twin Mills Road. The
proposed 72 parking spaces exceed the parking requirement by 7 spaces.
Equipment such as steel transmission poles and related hardware, pallets, and
approximately 12-24 gas cylinders for inert gas (sulfur hexafluoride) are proposed
to be stored on site. The outdoor storage area will be screened by a six-foot tall
opaque fence with Category VI landscaping. Some of the existing vegetation on
site will be retained and be used toward meeting the screening requirements.
Preliminary review of the conceptual stormwater management strategy, which
includes a BMP, indicates the project can successfully comply with the stormwater
requirements.

■ Considerations:
While this portion of Dam Neck Road is access controlled, the proposed temporary
access point on Dam Neck Road has been reviewed and determined to be
acceptable by Traffic Engineering staff. The adjacent property, to be developed
with an e-commerce facility, will include the construction of a new public road, Twin
Mills Road, that is estimated to be completed in 2025. At such time, the access
point on Dam Neck Road will be closed, a one-foot no ingress/egress easement
will be dedicated along the entire frontage of Dam Neck Road, and a new access
point for this parcel will be established on Twin Mills Road. Additionally, the
proposed use generates significantly less traffic volume compared to what could
be developed under the current Conditional B-2 zoning designation.
The proposed office and bulk storage yard are compatible uses within AICUZ. The
Navy reviewed these requests and did not raise any objection. Further details
pertaining to the application, as well as Staff's evaluation, are provided in the
attached Staff Report. There is no known opposition to this request.
■ Recommendation:
On March 13, 2024, the Planning Commission passed a motion to recommend
approval of these items on the Consent Agenda, by a recorded vote of 10-0.

Evaluation • • . •
Staff finds the proposed development, acceptable.The proposed rezoning of the property to Conditional 1-1 Light
Industrial District and Conditional Use Permit for a bulk storage yard would complement the research/business park
development in this vicinity.The property is adjacent to the Corporate Landing Business Park and the future Amazon's
warehouse that is currently under construction.The proposal is consistent with the Comprehensive Plan
recommendations for the Special Economic Growth Area 3 (SEGA)—South Oceana area that calls for high quality
employment, corporate parks and light industrial uses.
The proposed use generates significantly less traffic volume compared to what could be developed under the current
Conditional B-2 zoning designation. While this portion of Dam Neck Road is access controlled,the proposed temporary
access point on Dam Neck Road has been reviewed and determined acceptable by Traffic Engineering staff. The adjacent
property,to be developed with an e-commerce facility,will include the construction of a new public road,Twin Mills
Road,that is estimated to be completed in 2025.At such time,the access point on Dam Neck Road will be closed,a one-
foot no ingress/egress easement will be dedicated along Dam Neck Road, and a new access point for this parcel will be
established on Twin Mills Road.
As the property is located within the greater than 75 dB DNL noise zone,the proposed use and list of materials to be
stored on site has been vetted through the Navy and no objections were raised.The materials will be stored inside an
area that is enclosed by a six-foot tall privacy fence and a Category VI landscape buffer, meeting the bulk storage yard
screening requirements of the Zoning Ordinance. The parcel will be cleared in the areas of the proposed building,
parking, BMP,and storage area, and the remaining existing vegetation on site will be used to toward meeting the
screening requirements. Staff is recommending a condition to require the applicant install on site amenities such as
outdoor picnic tables and pedestrian trail for the employees.The types of amenities proposed will be determined during
site plan review.
As the site drains into the Southern Rivers Watershed,a conceptual stormwater management strategy was submitted
and reviewed by Staff. Staff agrees the project can successfully comply with the stormwater requirements. Final design
and detailed updates will be made during site plan submittal to ensure conformance with all requirements set forth in
the Public Works Design Standards Manual and Stormwater Management Ordinance.
Based on these considerations, Staff is recommending approval of these requests,subject to the proffers and conditions
listed below.

RecommendationsComprehensive Plan
The Comprehensive Plan designates this area of the city as being within the Special Economic Growth Area 3 (SEGA)—
South Oceana.This site is also impacted by high noise zones.The SEGAs are located adjacent to NAS Oceana and have
significant economic value and growth potential,targeting land uses compatible with military uses.The City supports
development of the SEGAs consistent with AICUZ provisions and the City's economic growth strategy.
The Comprehensive Plan designates the SEGA as an area where high quality employment,corporate parks and light
industrial uses are recommended.The Comprehensive Plan recommends that measures to mitigate negative impacts on
adjoining stable residential areas be part of development proposals in this area. Mitigation measures should include
adequate screening, and light and noise attenuation in building and site design.
Natural & Cultural Resources Impacts
The property is within the Southern Rivers Watershed. Drainage in the Southern Rivers watershed is highly impacted by
the presence of high ground water, poorly draining soils,and high-water surface elevations in downstream receiving
waters.There are no known cultural resources on the site.

Project Stormwater Design Staff Summary
This project consists of a new building, parking lot,and access drives for Dominion Energy at 1585 Dam Neck Road,
located east of Twin Mills Road. This project will include a stormwater management facility to support the proposed
improvements.
Stormwater runoff from a majority of the site currently drains north towards the Dam Neck Road right-of-way,which
ultimately outfalls to West Neck Creek. A small portion of the eastern perimeter of the site currently drains east
towards the existing public storm system along Perimeter Parkway,which ultimately outfalls to Redwing Lake. The
onsite improvements will be directed into a proposed wet pond that will be designed to treat for both water quality and
water quantity before discharging into the existing public drainage system along Dam Neck Road.
Based on the information provided by Kimley Horn in the Preliminary Drainage Study,the DSC agrees that the proposed
conceptual stormwater management strategy can successfully comply with the stormwater requirements. Final design
and detailed updates will be made during site plan submittal to ensure conformance with all requirements set forth in
the Public Works Design Standards Manual and Stormwater Management Ordinance. More detailed project stormwater
information is listed below.
Project Information
Total project area: 13.83 acres
Pre-Development impervious area: 0 acres

Stormwater Management Facility Design Information
Type of facility proposed:Wet Pond
Description of outfall:Stormwater runoff from the site will be treated by a proposed wet pond that will discharge into
the public drainage system along the Dam Neck Road right-of-way.
Downstream conveyance path: Runoff leaving the site will be directed towards the Dam Neck Road right-of-way,which
is part of the Upper West Neck Creek Drainage Basin. West Neck Creek leads into the North Landing River,and
ultimately into Back Bay. Back Bay drains through the Currituck Sound and into the Atlantic Ocean.

WHEREAS,Dominion Energy is the current contract purchaser of the Property; and
WHEREAS, Grantors have initiated an amendment to the Zoning Map of the City of Virginia
Beach,Virginia,by petition addressed to the Grantee,so as to change the classification of the Property from
B-2 to Conditional I-1; and
WHEREAS,the Grantee's policy is to provide only for the orderly development of land for various
purposes, including various purposes at a variety of densities,through zoning and other land development
legislation; and
WHEREAS,Grantors acknowledge that competing and sometimes incompatible uses conflict,and
that in order to permit differing uses on and in the area of the subject Property and at the same time to
recognize the effects of the change and the need for various types of uses, certain reasonable conditions
governing the use of the Property for the protection of the community that are not generally applicable to
land similarly zoned I-1 are needed to cope with the situation to which the Grantors' rezoning application
gives rise; and
WHEREAS,Grantors have voluntarily proffered in writing in advance of and prior to the public
hearing before the Grantee, as part of the proposed conditional amendment to the Zoning Map, in addition
to the regulations provided for in the existing I-1 zoning district by the existing City's Zoning Ordinance
(CZO), the following reasonable conditions related to the physical development, operation and use of the
GPIN No. 2405-84-8720-0000
Property to be adopted as a part of said amendment to the new Zoning Map relative to the Property,all of
which have a reasonable relation to the rezoning and the need for which is generated by the rezoning;and
WHEREAS, said conditions having been proffered by the Grantor and allowed and accepted by
the Grantee as part of the amendment to the Zoning Ordinance,such conditions shall continue in full force
and effect until a subsequent amendment changes the zoning on the Property covered by such conditions;
provided,however,that such conditions shall continue despite a subsequent amendment if the subsequent
amendment is part of the comprehensive implementation of a new or substantially revised zoning ordinance,
unless, notwithstanding the foregoing, these conditions are amended or varied by written instrument
recorded in the Clerk's Office of the Circuit Court of the City of Virginia Beach,Virginia and executed by
the record owner of the subject Property at the time of recordation of such instrument; provided, further,
that said instrument is consented to by the Grantee in writing as evidenced by a certified copy of the
ordinance or resolution adopted by the governing body of the Grantee, after a public hearing before the
Grantee advertised pursuant to the provisions of the Code of Virginia, Section 15.2-2204, which said
ordinance or resolution shall be recorded along with said instrument as conclusive evidence of such consent.
NOW THEREFORE,the Grantors, for themselves,their successors,assigns, grantees, and other

Short Term Rentals are prevalent in this portion of the City with a total of ±60
previously approved Conditional Use Permits for Short Term Rentals within a half

one parking space is required for the entire unit, which is provided within the
condominium's parking lot.

provided in the attached Staff Report. There is no known opposition to this request.
■ Recommendation:
On March 13, 2024, the Planning Commission passed a motion to recommend
approval of this item on the Consent Agenda, by a recorded vote of 10-0.
1. The following conditions shall only apply to the dwelling unit addressed as 303
Atlantic Avenue, Unit 403, and the Short Term Rental use shall only occur in
the principal structure.
2. An annual (yearly) STIR Zoning Permit must be obtained from the Department

Background & Summary of • • •
Site Conditions and History
• This 45,000 square foot parcel contains the Dolphin Run Condominiums and is zoned OR Oceanfront Resort
District. According to City Records,this multi-family condominium was constructed in 1975.
• On-street parking is permitted 24-hours per day,therefore any overflow parking beyond the minimum parking
spaces required could occur within the public street.
• There are no current or past zoning violations on this site.This condominium has not previously been advertised
or rented as a Short Term Rental.The current applicant purchased the property in October 2023 and was made
aware of the need for a Conditional Use Permit when filing for the STR Permit with the Zoning Division in
November 2023.
• Since this property was not registered nor paying transient occupancy taxes to the Commissioner of the
Revenue prior to July 1, 2018,the property would not be considered a grandfathered Short Term Rental and
thus would require a Conditional Use Permit prior to operating.
• Known Short Term Rental activity as of January 29, 2024 is shown in the chart below:

EvaluationRecommendation
The applicant is requesting to operate a two-bedroom,941 square-foot Short Term Rental within the Dolphin Run
Condominium building. Since the site is located in the Oceanfront Resort (OR)Short Term Rental Overlay District, Short
Term Rental use is expected. The parcel is bounded by the Boardwalk, Beach,and Atlantic Ocean to the east,the 41h
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 lot.According to the 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
Terry Moore Miffleton
Agenda Item 13
Page 3
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.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.
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
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.
Based on the considerations above, Staff recommends approval of this request with the conditions listed below.

CITY OF VIRGINIA BEACH
AGENDA ITEM
ITEM: AN ORDINANCE TO AMEND SECTION 111 OF THE CITY ZONING
ORDINANCE PERTAINING TO THE DEFINITIONS OF DWELLING UNIT,
HOME SHARING, KITCHEN, AND PORCH.
MEETING DATE: April 16, 2024
■ Background:
The purpose of this general housekeeping amendment is to clarify and create
consistency amongst the definitions of Home Sharing, Dwelling Unit, and Kitchen,
as well as to add a definition of Porch to the Ordinance.
■ Considerations:
During the enforcement process for the Short Term Rental Ordinance, staff has
realized that there is too much ambiguity in what is meant by term "dwelling." The
Zoning Ordinance identifies several types of "dwellings," including single-family,
duplex, and multi-family dwellings. Currently, the definition of "home sharing"
references "dwelling" and is vague in nature. The intention of the "home sharing"
definition was to reference a "dwelling unit," a term specifically defined in the
Zoning Ordinance, rather than the more over-arching term "dwelling.
This led Staff to examine the definitions of "dwelling unit" and "kitchen" as well to
create consistency amongst this set of definitions as they relate and are referenced
by one another. The definition of "dwelling unit" explicitly mentions the term
"housekeeping unit". Staff finds this definition to be problematic because the
Zoning Ordinance does not define a "housekeeping unit." To provide clarity to this
definition, the text amendment would change "housekeeping unit" to "residence,"
which accurately reflects the intention of the term "dwelling unit." Like the definition
of"dwelling unit," the definition of"kitchen" contains the term "housekeeping unit."
To provide clarity and consistency with the definition of a "dwelling unit," staff has
initiated this text amendment that changes "housekeeping unit" to "dwelling unit"
and specifies that a kitchen requires "permanent provisions for cooking."
Section 111 of the Zoning Ordinance does not specifically define a "porch." A
"porch" is only defined in the Oceanfront Resort Form Based Code. The Form
Based Code defines "porch" as "a one, two, or three-story structure attached to a
building to shelter an entrance or to serve as covered but unenclosed space." The
definition of "porch" is particularly important regarding setbacks and permitted
encroachments. This text amendment adds the definition of porch from the Form
City of Virginia Beach
Page 2 of 2
Based Code into Section 111 of the Zoning Ordinance. This provides clarity and
consistency between all zoning codes.
Further details pertaining to the application, as well as Staff's evaluation, are
provided in the attached Staff Report. There is no known opposition to this request.
■ Recommendation:
On March 13, 2024, the Planning Commission passed a motion to recommend
approval of this item on the Consent Agenda, by a recorded vote of 10-0.

Virginia Beach
An Ordinance to amend Section 111 of the City Zoning Ordinance pertaining to the definitions of Dwelling Unit, Home
Sharing, Kitchen, and Porch.
Summary of •
The purpose of this general housekeeping amendment is to clarify and create consistency amongst the definitions of
Home Sharing, Dwelling Unit, and Kitchen, as well as to add a definition of Porch to the ordinance.
1. Home Sharing:
The current definition of"Home Sharing"is "a dwelling in which a room or rooms are offered for rental
compensation for a period of less than thirty(30)consecutive days by an owner who utilizes the dwelling as his
principal residence and occupies the dwelling during any such period."During the enforcement process for the Short
Term Rental Ordinance, staff has realized that there is too much ambiguity in what is meant by term "dwelling."The
Zoning Ordinance identifies several types of"dwellings," including single-family,duplex, and multi-family dwellings.
The intention of the "home sharing"definition was to reference a "dwelling unit,"a term specifically defined in the
Zoning Ordinance, rather than the more over-arching term "dwelling."Therefore, staff has initiated this text
amendment to replace "dwelling"with "dwelling unit"in the "home sharing"definition.
2. Dwelling Unit:
The definition of"dwelling unit"is "a room or rooms connected together, constituting an independent housekeeping
unit for a family and including permanent provisions for living, sleeping, eating, cooking and sanitation."Staff finds
this definition to be problematic because the Zoning Ordinance does not define a "housekeeping unit."To provide
clarity to this definition,the text amendment would change "housekeeping unit"to "residence,"which accurately
reflects the intention of the term "dwelling unit."
3. Kitchen:
Similar to the definition of"dwelling unit,"the definition of"kitchen"contains the term "housekeeping unit."The
current definition of"kitchen"is "an area with a housekeeping unit which contains a cooking facility."To provide
clarity and consistency with the definition of a "dwelling unit," staff has initiated this text amendment that changes
"housekeeping unit"to"dwelling unit" and specifies that a kitchen requires 'permanent provisions for cooking."
4. Porch
Section 111 of the Zoning Ordinance does not specifically define a "porch." A "porch" is only defined in the
Oceanfront Resort Form Based Code. The Form Base Code defines "porch"as "a one, two, or three-story structure
attached to a building to shelter an entrance or to serve as covered but unenclosed space."The definition of"porch"
is particularly important regarding setbacks and permitted encroachments. This text amendment adds the definition
of porch from the Form Based Code into Section 111 of the Zoning Ordinance. This provides clarity and consistency
between all zoning codes.

Agenda Item # 1
City of Virginia Beach
RECOMMENDED FOR APPROVAL
Mr. Coston: Thank you, Madam Chair. There will be five items on the Consent Agenda.
These are applications that are recommended for approval by staff and the
Planning Commission concurred, and there are no speakers signed up in
opposition. Item one, on the Consent Agenda, it is City of Virginia Beach,
an Ordinance to Amend Section 111 of the City's Zoning Ordinance
pertaining to the definition of dwelling unit. At this time, we're going to ask
our Zoning Administrator, Mr. Kevin Kemp, if he would come and read this
into the record.
Mr. Kemp: Thank you, and Good Afternoon, members of the commission. This item is
a text amendment, it's really a housekeeping text amendment that was
initiated by staff. Staff worked with the four terms that I will go over with
you. So, as we work through enforcement, we realized that there were
some issues that we would like to sinch up and tighten up with this text
amendment. So four terms were modified. The first is the definition of home
sharing, and in this we replaced the dwelling in the definition with dwelling
unit. What staff found was that there was some ambiguity in what was
meant by dwelling. The ordinance specifies several types of dwelling, single
family, multifamily, and duplex. What the ordinance really intended, what
that it is a single dwelling unit, not the entire building. So, by adding unit, it
clarifies the intention of the ordinance. The second is modifying the
definition of dwelling unit. This replaces the word housekeeping with
residents in the definition. So, currently uses housekeeping unit in the
definition. Well, this is a term that is not defined in the ordinance, and it is
really not a common term. What's really intended is that a dwelling unit is
an independent residence for a family. So, we are replacing it with that
word.
The third is amending the definition of kitchen, the same as previously with
dwelling unit, it's replacing housekeeping unit with the words dwelling unit,
and it also specifies in the definition that to be a kitchen, it requires a
permanent provision for cooking, and this is therefore consistent with the
definition of the dwelling unit. The last one is to add a definition of porch.
Currently, our zoning ordinance does not have a definition of porch. There
is one in the ocean front resort form-based code. What this does is it takes
that definition, adds it to the city zoning ordinance, and therefore there is
consistency across the board in all city codes, and staff has recommended
approval of this. Thank you.
Mr. Coston: Thank you. Are there any oppositions to this item being placed on the
Consent Agenda? Okay, our next item is item two. Is there a
representative? Yes, sir. Please state your name for the record.
Mr. Coston: Thank you. Madam Chair, that was the last item on the consent agenda.
The Planning Commission places the following applications on the consent
agenda. Items 1, 2, 3, 4, and 13.
Ms. Cuellar: Thank you very much. Do I have a motion to approve the consent agenda
as read by Commissioner Coston.
Mr. Anderson: So moved.
Mr. Plumley: Second.
Ms. Cuellar: Moved by Commissioner Anderson, seconded by Commissioner Plumley.
Are there any planning commissioners abstaining on these items on the
consent agenda? The motion for approval? The vote is open.
Madam Clerk: By a vote of 10 to zero items number 1, 2, 3, 4, and 13, have been
recommended for approval.
