Item #1 City of Virginia Beach Amendment to Comprehensive Plan/Centerville SGA February 13, 2013 REGULAR

Item #1 City of Virginia Beach Amendment to Comprehensive Plan/Centerville SGA February 13, 2013 REGULAR An Ordinance to amend the Comprehensive Plan by Adopting the Centerville Strategic Growth Area Master Plan, March 2013, and revising the Policy Document. SUMMARY OF AMENDMENT The City began a planning process to prepare a Master plan for the Centerville Strategic Growth Area (SGA) in May 2012. The last plan to be developed for the City s eight SGAs, the Centerville SGA planning process followed the same multidisciplinary, process-based, three-phased approach used to develop most of the other SGA plans: understanding, exploring, and deciding. This public planning process was guided by a Steering Committee comprised of a cross-section of community representatives. The planning process involved extensive public outreach and collaboration with stakeholders. In fact, due to the extensive amount of public participation and comment received after the initial draft was released in September 2012, the Centerville SGA warranted an additional public meeting during the deciding phase to respond to stakeholder concerns. This SGA faced its own unique set of challenges, including the presence of two landfills and some of the worst traffic congestion in the City. Alternatively, the SGA also carries much promise with the presence of two major institutions and a major corporate entity, all of which are adjacent to a large expanse of undeveloped land under single ownership with prime interstate frontage. The master plan responds to these challenges and capitalizes on these strengths with a vision based on ten design principles identified in the early stages of the planning process. As a means of achieving the vision to become an education-oriented master-planned community, the plan outlines strategies for the street network, parks and open space networks, bikeways and trail networks, stormwater management, sanitary sewer systems, water systems, and mitigation for the existing waste management facilities. The master plan also identifies six focus areas for which it lays out recommended site design, building heights, and land uses. The attached amendments revise the Comprehensive Plan accordingly and direct the reader to the Centerville SGA Master Plan for full details. RECOMMENDATION The Centerville Strategic Growth Area Master Plan is the result of an extensive public participation process involving area residents, property owners, business owners, religious and education institutions, and special interests. This public involvement was instrumental in shaping the plan, which has evolved through several iterations. Originally, the Centerville/Regent SGA, which has since been renamed the Centerville

Item #1 City of Virginia Beach Amendment to Comprehensive Plan/Centerville SGA Page 2 SGA, incorporated a much smaller area in which CBN, Regent University, Amerigroup and the undeveloped land around them are located. However, after the first phase of the planning process, the study area tripled in size based on feedback received from the public. Not only was it important to acknowledge the presence of the municipal and private landfills, area residents also recognized potential in the nearby shopping centers. The Woods Corner area shopping centers generated a great deal of interest and public comment. Area residents and business owners cited access problems and traffic congestion as the cause for the high percentage of vacancies in these shopping centers. Although the consultant team initially recommended a mixed use redevelopment plan, area residents clearly stated their opposition to any new residential uses in the Woods Corner area, fearing more traffic congestion and more demand on City services. The agreed upon solution is an improved access framework that will gradually create a block structure but maintain primarily commercial uses. Another important area of interest is the municipal and private landfills. Although the SGA Plan cannot dictate the future of these landfills, it does identify mitigation strategies that can help minimize impacts to surrounding properties. These are important to implement until both landfills can be closed. Clearly the outcome of the SPSA negotiations and the City s decision on the future of the municipal landfill will have an impact on the success of this SGA. In the meantime, however, it is important to move forward with the SGA Plan now so we can begin implementation of the other important components in the plan. Therefore, staff recommends approval of the Centerville SGA Master Plan. 9 NAY 0 ABS 0 2 BERNAS FELTON HENLEY HODGSON HORSLEY LIVAS REDMOND RIPLEY RUCINSKI RUSSO THORNTON By a vote of 9-0, the Commission approved item 1.

Item #13 Sandra Miller Conditional Use Permit 4088 Rainbow Drive District 1 Centerville February 13, 2013 REGULAR An application of Sandra Miller for a Conditional Use Permit (residential kennel) on property located at 4088 Rainbow Drive, District 1, Centerville. GPIN: 14759339660000. The applicant currently has a total of 4 Pomeranians, and at one time, had up to 15 puppies as a result of the dog s breeding. She desires to add three adult Labradors, bringing the total to seven dogs. The Zoning Ordinance requires a Conditional Use Permit for a Residential Kennel when more than four dogs over six months of age are kept on a parcel as pets or for hunting, exhibiting, or for dog shows. Section 223 of the Zoning Ordinance, which regulates this type of activity, requires that the area of a parcel used as a residential kennel be located 100 feet or more from the property line of any adjacent lot, unless the animals are kept in soundproof, airconditioned buildings. In this case, at its widest, the site is 91 feet wide. Staff finds that this does not allow adequate space for the dogs. Moreover, there is no proposal to construct a soundproof, air-conditioned kennel for the dogs, and staff is concerned that the dwelling will provide inadequate soundproofing or air-conditioning as intended by the standards of Section 223. As noted above in the Comprehensive Plan section, neighborhood quality is an important guiding recommendation for the Suburban Area. In its review of this Use Permit request, Staff discussed its evaluation and recommendations pertaining to several Use Permit requests during the past several years for Residential Kennels. In particular, Staff considered the potential for this type of use to impact the neighborhood quality that the Comprehensive Plan recommends. The characteristics of neighborhood quality consist of factors such as, and these are not the only factors, daytime and nighttime sound levels appropriate to a residential neighborhood, land uses compatible with a residential setting, and a high level of site and building design. Accordingly, to ensure neighborhood quality is not diminished but is instead enhanced when possible, the use of a residential lot for a Residential Kennel should only be allowed where the lot is of sufficient size for the number of proposed dogs, and when the applicant can clearly demonstrate that use of the lot for a Residential Kennel will not be detrimental to the surrounding area and the dogs will have an adequate kennel that is truly soundproof and air-conditioned. Staff recognizes that it has in the past supported Residential Kennels on various size lots and under a variety of conditions. Staff is concerned that continuation of such support where the factors above are not present may result in unintended detriment to the neighborhood quality. Applicants requesting a Use Permit for a Residential Kennel

Item #13 Sandra Miller Page 2 must demonstrate, as part of the factors provided above, and Staff must find through those same factors, that neighborhood quality will be maintained or even enhanced. Staff does not find that this request demonstrates or meets those factors, and thus, Staff recommends denial of the request for a Conditional Use Permit for a Residential Kennel. A motion was made by Commissioner Thornton and seconded by Commissioner Rucinski to deny the application. 9 NAY 0 ABS 0 2 BERNAS FELTON HENLEY HODGSON HORSLEY LIVAS REDMOND RIPLEY RUCINSKI RUSSO THORNTON By a vote of 9-0, the Commission denied item 13.

Item #18 City of Virginia Beach Amendment to Sections 1904 and 1905 of the City Zoning Ordinance/ Old Beach Overlay District February 13, 2013 REGULAR REQUEST: An Ordinance to amend and reordain Sections 1904 and 1905 of the City Zoning Ordinance pertaining to lot coverage, setbacks, landscaping and design incentives in the Old Beach Overlay District. SUMMARY OF AMENDMENT The Old Beach neighborhood is generally bounded by 27½ St to the north, Arctic Avenue to the east, 22½ Street to the south, and Parks Avenue to the west. In December 2005, the City Council adopted the Old Beach Overlay District Ordinance (Article 19 of the City Zoning Ordinance) as well as the Old Beach Design Guidelines. At the same time, the City Council rezoned the area to place the Old Beach Overlay District over the existing zoning. Section 1900 of the Zoning Ordinance states that The purpose of the Old Beach Overlay District is to preserve and enhance the historic status of the Old Beach neighborhood as one of the first residential areas within the Oceanfront Resort Area by providing opportunities for both new and redeveloped resort residential development, characterized by single-family cottage-style homes and compatible multi-family residential dwellings. Furthermore, the Old Beach Design Guidelines are provided for this district, the purpose of which is to encourage development that is appropriate for the district. The Old Beach Design Review Committee was established as a resource for those seeking to develop within the Old Beach (OB) Overlay District. The committee is intended to preserve, enhance and promote the character of the neighborhood in accordance with the Old Beach Design Guidelines and the provisions of the OB Overlay District. Plan submission and review by the committee is voluntary. The Old Beach Design Review Committee conducted a review of development activity in the OB Overlay District since the establishment of the Overlay District and Design Guidelines in 2005. The purpose of the Committee s review was to determine if the ordinance and guidelines are working satisfactorily and meeting intended objectives. The Committee determined that application of the ordinance is, in some cases, having unintended effects that are inconsistent with the objectives of the Old Beach Design Guidelines, particularly in regard to lot coverage for primary and ancillary dwellings, garage setbacks and landscaping requirements. To eliminate inconsistencies between the Overlay Ordinance and the Design Guidelines and to better reflect the objectives of the Guidelines, the Committee worked with staff to draft revisions to the Overlay Ordinance, which are attached to this report and are summarized below.

Item #18 City of Virginia Beach Amendment to Sections 1904 and 1905 of the City Zoning Ordinance/ Old Beach Overlay District Page 2 Lot Coverage Current: The ordinance currently allows the maximum lot coverage of a principal dwelling to be between 51% and 65% of the total lot coverage and the maximum lot coverage of a ancillary dwelling to be between 35% and 49% of the total lot coverage total. The ordinance prohibits the sum of the principal dwelling lot coverage and ancillary dwelling lot coverage from exceeding 100%. In contradiction to the Overlay Ordinance, the Old Beach Design Guidelines state that the maximum lot coverage of a principal dwelling cannot exceed 60% of the lot coverage and the maximum lot coverage of an ancillary dwelling cannot exceed 40%. A finding of the Old Beach Design Review Committee s review of development indicates that while the Overlay Ordinance permits a variation in lot coverage between the principal and ancillary dwellings, the majority of development has a lot coverage split near to or at 51% / 49%. The result is what appear to be two single-family dwellings on one lot. Proposed: To ensure that the principal dwelling on a lot is indeed the larger of the two singlefamily dwellings on one lot, and thus address the issue described above, the amendment states that the maximum lot coverage of a principal dwelling cannot exceed 60% of the total lot coverage. The maximum lot coverage of an ancillary dwelling cannot exceed 40% of the total lot coverage. Garage Setbacks Current: The ordinance currently allows a 20-foot setback for garages. The result has been homes that do not meet the intent of the Design Guidelines, which recommend front façade design that makes the porch and front door the front focal points instead of the garage door. Proposed: The setback for garages is increased from 20 feet to 36 feet from the lot line. For lots developed with 2 single-family homes, the garage setback will be 36 feet from the rear lot line if an improved alley exists. Side yard setbacks for garages are decreased from 8 feet to 5 feet when not adjacent to a street. Landscape Requirements Current: On the 40-foot wide lots that predominate in Old Beach, meeting the requirement for 1,200 square foot of landscaping has been challenging. Proposed:

Item #18 City of Virginia Beach Amendment to Sections 1904 and 1905 of the City Zoning Ordinance/ Old Beach Overlay District Page 3 This amendment provides greater flexibility in landscape design while retaining the landscaping provisions of the Guidelines or the Ordinance. On lots developed with a principal and an ancillary home, rain gardens and bioretention areas may be included as part of the required 600 square feet of landscaping per unit. Organization of Ordinance Additionally, the overall organization of the Old Beach Overlay District Ordinance has been revised as part of the proposed amendment. Accordingly, while the first few pages of the attached ordinance amendment consist of significant text being deleted, that same text is added afterwards. The only actual changes are the ones noted above. RECOMMENDATION The proposed amendments are the result of an extensive review by the Old Beach Design Review Committee of dwellings developed since the 2005 adoption of the ordinance and establishment of the overlay. The findings of the Committee indicated that the desired design objectives contained in the Old Beach Design Guidelines were not being transferred to the reality of what was being constructed. Through work with City staff to seek the reasons for this contradiction, the attached ordinance amendments were drafted. There will be additional efforts in the coming months to update the Design Guidelines to better present the desired end goal to those considering development within the Old Beach Overlay District. Any revisions to the Guidelines will need to be considered by the Planning Commission and City Council. 9 NAY 0 ABS 0 2 BERNAS FELTON HENLEY HODGSON HORSLEY LIVAS REDMOND RIPLEY RUCINSKI RUSSO THORNTON By a vote of 9-0, the Commission approved item 18.
