speakers. Staff gave a brief overview of the application. Councilor Devine moved
approval of Resolution 14-83, approving the conversion of 1000 block of Winchester
Street (between William Street and Amelia Street) from one-way traffic northbound to
two-way traffic; motion was seconded by Councilor Ellis and passed by the following
unanimously recorded votes. Ayes (7). Councilors Greenlaw, Withers, Devine, Duffy,
Ellis, Frye and Kelly. Nays (0).
Rezoning Approximately 4.83 Acres of Land Located on the
Southeast Side of the 2100 and 2200 Blocks of Hays Street and the
Southwest Side of the 1000 and 1100 Blocks of Oakwood Street (D14-
406 thru D14-408) - 14 speakers. Staff gave a brief overview of the application and
Councilor Ellis asked how the traffic impact compared to the businesses that were
previously located there. Zoning Administrator Craig stated that trips are generally lower
when you go from retail to residential use.
Councilor Kelly expressed his concern with some of the Planning
Commissioner’s reasoning for opposition, insufficient proffer policies by the City and
gateway improvements both of which the applicant had no control over. He was
concerned that this was not an appropriate basis for denying a project. Planning and
Zoning Director Johnston said these were issues the developer had no control over and
the point was well taken.
Mr. James Bowen, applicant, 303 Canon Circle. Mr. Bowen has been a resident
of the City for 54 years. He owns and operates the Best Western Hotel and he leases the
Shoney’s restaurant. His offices are located on the 11 acres tract adjacent to the proposed
rezoning. He employs 49 people and Shoney’s has 35. The proposed zoning was
18748
Public Hearing 10/14/14
recommended by Planning Director Johnston and Zoning Administrator Craig. The 11
acre site consists of Commercial-Transitional, Residential-R-2, and Commercial-
Highway. There would not any substantial impact on the current businesses and property
owners. He said they are taking a piece of property valued at $681,000 and increasing
the value to $15 million. Mr. Bowman said over the past 50 years he has been in
business he had not asked the City for any concessions and he has paid the full amount
for all City services. He said this project alone would generate $360,000 in fees to the
City. The 36 homes will house, police, fire, teachers and city employees. He was
concerned with how this project would impact the surrounding area, his office and his
business so he held a public outreach meeting and approximately 60 people attended.
Mr. Bowman said he believed they had answered all their concerns and they plan to meet
or exceed their expectations. He feels Governor’s Row would be a boutique project that
would be an asset to the community and to the City.
Councilor Frye had to leave for a family emergency.
Daniel & Chad Webb, developers presented a PowerPoint presentation and they
discussed the existing Generalized Development Plan (GDP), existing zoning, proposed
zoning, they showed some comparisons from College Hill, Cornell Street and Kenmore
Avenue as well as the proposed development. They also discussed the transportation
proffers, the façade proffers as well as other proffers, the tax revenue, the Great Oaks
Homeowners Association letter listing issues and how they would address each of those
issues, traffic, and the Mahone Street intersection improvements. (See D14-407 for more
information).
Councilor Ellis thanked the applicant and said they presented to project well over
18749
Public Hearing 10/14/14
a year ago to him and he pointed out concerns to the applicant and they listened and they
also listened to the neighbors and the Planning Commission and adjusted accordingly.
He felt they had done a great job with adjusting the project to satisfy those concerned.
Anne Black, 121 Poplar Drive, stated that she opposed the R-8 rezoning. She
said her reasons for opposing could be found in the Planning Commission August 13
minutes along with a petition with 97 property owners’ signatures opposing the rezoning.
She felt this project was in conflict with the purpose of the R-8 Zoning district in the
Unified Development Ordinance which she said it states “attached and detached dwelling
types and not and or.” She also expressed concern for the inadequacies of Mahone and
Oakwood Streets and she felt the traffic study was flawed. Ms. Black felt this project
would have a negative impact on property values, the project density negatively impact
the quality of live, and the development has a lack of amenities. (See D14-408 for more
information).
Beatrice Kerr, 125 Poplar Drive, spoke in opposition of the rezoning. She said
she was drawn to Fredericksburg because of its good schools, nice neighborhoods and
community feel by rezoning this property it would add more congestion to the City and
take away what’s good about the City. She feels this would overcrowd the schools and
stated it would add a half million dollars to the school budget and cause a tax increase.
She explained that if the zoning were kept as Commercial-Transitional it would bring in
more tax dollars. She discussed in great detail the overcrowding in the schools. Ms. Kerr
also stated that the proposed townhomes could not be compared to townhomes in the
downtown area. The proffers being offered she felt did not come close to what this
project would cost the City.
18750
Public Hearing 10/14/14
Rob Mercker, 117 Poplar Drive, spoke in opposition and he felt these
townhomes would sell in the low $180,000 to $190,000. He said the property would end
up as Section 8 housing in 3-5 years and it would cause a drop in the property value of
the homes by 20-40 percent. He feels this will destroy the single family homes value.
Debra Vazquez, 117 Poplar Drive, spoke in opposition. She addressed concerns
with the traffic and she stated that the downtown townhomes that were used as
comparable were not proper. She felt single-family homes would be a better option for
this property or design a project that better fit the area.
Allen Hall, 104 Poplar Drive, spoke in support of the rezoning. He feels this
would be the best possible use for this property. The biggest concern during the Planning
Commission was the traffic at Mahone and Route 3. He said there are currently 100-150
homes that use Mahone, Oakwood and Hays Streets for entry and exist and currently he
said there isn’t very much traffic from the residences. He added that this project would
possibly be a third of the traffic generated. He said the traffic from the commercial
properties generate 90-95 percent of the traffic.
Carl Braun, 1208 Century Oak Drive, spoke in support and commended Mr.
Bowen and the Webb’s for being responsive and he feels they have addressed every
concern within reason that they were able to address. He also commended them for
stepping up and addressing the traffic problems which were not their fault. He feels this
is the best option for this property as it transitions. He also stated that because of the
brick exterior and the nice amenities that will come with that these townhomes they
would sell at a decent price.
Laurie Bendall, 1104 Century Oak Drive, spoke in favor of the rezoning. She
18751
Public Hearing 10/14/14
stated that she had attended the meetings, read all the meeting minutes, looked at the
plans and she educated herself before making her decision. She said this was a huge win
for the neighborhood that the developer has agreed to pay for the traffic improvements
that were needed and she added that there are not many developers who would agree to
pay for those improvements. This was a huge compromise on the developer’s part and
the neighbors needed to pay attention to this because the City was not going to be able to
pay for those improvements. She said she was at peace knowing what would be
developed in this space.
Tricia Barnes, 482 Promiseland Lane, Locust Grove, VA, Realtor, stated that the
proposed townhome character was not compatible with the architecture of the existing
detached homes in the area, the noise generated would be great and ongoing, the façade
proffers were not adequate to promote a quality constructed project, the proffer do not
provide assurance that the quality of material and workmanship would reflect the single-
family residential characteristics of the quality of the neighborhood. A low quality project
provides greater risk of the project turning into rental units. She added that soil
conditions could affect the safety and appearance of the townhomes in the future. She
discussed the soil hazards in the area. She also addressed several of the traffic issues.
Ms. Barnes said the lack of amenities would be a detractor for homebuyers. She also said
this project would negatively affect the elderly neighbors on the corner.
Margie Lucas, 1014 Black Oak Court, stated that no one likes change but, she
wanted the roads fixed and if it came at the cost of the townhomes she was happy with it.
Sabrina Anderson, 1012 Jamis Place, spoke to say you cannot compare a
downtown townhome with one on the outskirts of the City as the developer did in his
18752
Public Hearing 10/14/14
presentation.
Christina Bruke, 1108 Century Oak Drive, spoke against the rezoning and she
encouraged Council to come and take a tour of the neighborhood. She stated how
dangerous the roads were and she didn’t feel the additional inches being added would
help. She was also concerned that there was currently no place for the kids to play and
this project would add more kids with no place to play. She said that the erosion issues
still need to be addressed.
Shawn Lando, 427 Woodford Street, said he lived in a high traffic area, but he
said change was necessary for a community to grow and thrive. He said everyone would
like a park like setting, but he noted he would love to have a nice esthetically looking
project, all brick with garages to look at but instead he has a law office with apartments
on top to look at. He believes this would be a great asset to the Great Oaks Subdivision.
Mr. Webb, addressed some of the concerns on Oakwood Street, he said they were
improving the entire length of Oakwood Street. He also said they have worked
extensively with the Public Works Department regarding Hays and Mahone Streets to
make sure they were meeting the needs to accommodate the traffic.
Mr. Bowen stated that he had people offering to put in apartments on the site and
he resisted doing that. He added that the prices of the units have nothing to do with the
project and he feels this is the right thing to do for the City.
Councilor Withers thanked the developers for a great project, the citizens for
coming out to speak and the staff for their hard work. He had some questions and he
wanted additional documentation. His questions were as follows: Is the existing zoning a
reasonable use for the property? Is the proposed zoning reasonable? Does the proposed
18753
Public Hearing 10/14/14
zoning conform to the Comprehensive Plan? He also asked that the four neighborhood
goals be addressed further as well as the Route 3 corridor.
Councilor Withers moved to postpone action and send the project back to the
Planning staff for further documentation of the questions listed above; motion was
seconded by Councilor Devine.
Councilor Ellis said he could not support delaying action because this project had
been discussed for well over a year. He also said that the developer had addressed all
concerns made by the Planning Commission. He noted that the property would be
developed and he did not want to see apartments there but rather a quality project. The
said the additional revenue and the fees alone would help with the impact on the schools.
The traffic engineers have already stated this would be an improvement. He added that if
a commercial by-right use were to go in this location the property value of the homes
would decrease more.
Councilor Withers said he was only postponing action to get better documentation
on the project in case the decision was appealed by either side.
Councilor Ellis said this was a difficult vote but he had notice that the project
seemed to be half for and half against.
Councilor Kelly asked if the project failed on a 3-3 vote what would be the
chances of the project being heard again. City Attorney Dooley explained that if the
project were denied then the same project could not come forward for a year.
Mayor Greenlaw said she considered this a very strong project and she
commended the applicant and she was in favor of the project, but she would support the
motion with the understanding that the project was to come back at the next meeting.
18754
Public Hearing 10/14/14
Councilor Devine also noted that her seconding the motion to postpone does not
dictate her decision on the issue. She said she like the way the project had developed.
She said she had some concerns with the rezoning because the City has had a few by-
right projects and the impact of those projects had not been evaluated yet. She added that
she mostly looks favorably on the project and she appreciated the proffers to the
playground and the schools. She also said she had concerns with the added demand on
police and fire. She wanted to see it deferred for additional information so that the
project was not challenged after the vote.
Councilor Duffy agreed with most of the comments that the project was better,
but he too was concerned with the long term investments that the City would have to
make and the developer not paying for those added City services.
The motion to defer passed by the following recorded vote. Ayes (5). Councilors
Greenlaw, Withers, Devine, Duffy and Kelly. Nays (1) Councilor Ellis.
Adjournment. There being no speakers to come before the Council at this
time, Mayor Greenlaw declared the hearing officially adjourned at 9:09 p.m.

a proclamation to proclaim October 23-31 annually, as Red Ribbon Week, and encourage
all citizens to participate in drug prevention education activities, not only during Red
Ribbon Week, but all year long.
Citizen Comment. The following speakers participated in the citizen
comment portion of this evening's meeting.
Joseph Vance, 704 Bunker Hill Street, spoke in regards to parking and other
issues with the James Monroe High School students. He said he doesn’t mind the events
at the school, but over the years the kids are leaving the school grounds smoking cigarettes
and marijuana and leaving cigarette butts in and along his property. He has addressed this
in the past with the police, council members and the Principal. He’s had a couple instances
where he has caught students urinating in his yard. He requested that the schools mandate
the student’s park in the school parking lot, he would like some sort of fence possibly a 6
foot rot iron fence such as the one at Maury Field and he would like the schools to
consider banning parking from the school entrance to Bunker Hill.
Harold Bannister, 1901 Fall Hill Avenue, spoke in regards to the rezoning project
along the Princess Anne Street Corridor that went before the Planning Commission. The
neighbors between the Canal and Princess Anne, the Canal and Route 1 and Caroline
Street are in favor of any improvements along the Princess Anne Corridor. There were a
few items that he and the community was not happy with and the first was the proffer for
$26,000. He said for a multimillion dollar project with three high end condos this amount
was unacceptable because the cost to educate a student in the City was about $12,000 and
the amount being offered was not adequate. He asked that council request a per unit
proffer. Mr. Bannister said the community would also like to know the impact of this
18758
Regular Session 10/14/14
project and others on the schools system. He asked that Council have Planning
Commission conduct a study on what the capacity is for additional students as well as
additional capacity for the facilities to handle current and future students. The third major
concern was the bridge over the existing trail and they feel this would cause additional
delays and he asked that the developer use the existing road way and align the project with
Pelham Street. He said they want to see the project, but want to see those items improved.
Sabrina Anderson, 1012 Jamis Place, spoke on her disappointment with Brighton
Homes the builder who built her house. She said they were issued notice of violations by
the City for 13 building code violations. She said they were also directed to investigate
eight more that could be possible violations. She asked that the inspector who inspected
her home be retrained because they should not have missed that many violations.

Kelly and passed by the following unanimously recorded votes. Ayes (6). Councilors
Greenlaw, Withers, Devine, Duffy, Ellis and Kelly. Nays (0).
Resolution 14-84, Approved, Revisions to the Unified Development
Ordinance Procedures Manual (D14-425). After brief staff overview Councilor
Kelly addressed the additional wording in the Special Use Permit that states “the Planning
office prepares the staff report, and after receiving a draft resolution from the City
Attorney” and he said this puts all the writing of the ordinances in the hands of the City
Attorney’s office. He said he would like it to say “in consultation to the Planning Staff
the City Attorney will”. Councilor Kelly said he would like to defer this item to allow the
City Attorney and the Planning Director to make a presentation next week on how this
will be implemented. He feels this is a procedural change and stated that this was not how
they have operated in the past.
Councilor Kelly moved to defer until the next meeting; motion was seconded by
Councilor Ellis.
Mayor Greenlaw asked Development Administrator & Code Enforcement Officer
Sherman if the Technical Review Committee had reviewed this change and Ms. Sherman
said they had. She said it was emailed to each of the members and she received feedback
from two of the members, but ultimately they had no changes. Everyone reviewed it and
there were no request to change.
Mayor Greenlaw asked for clarification of who was on the committee and Mrs.
Sherman said it consisted of Planning staff, Building and Development, Public works
Economic Development and City Manager Staff as well as the Fire Marshall.
18762
Regular Session 10/14/14
Mayor Greenlaw said this had been drafted and circulated for some time and City
Attorney Dooley said the process has been on the table for about nine months and her
office has always drafted the ordinances and resolutions. She said this would formalize
the process as it has worked and it will provide better coordination between the Planning
Department and the City Attorney’s Office.
Councilor Kelly said it was imperative that this is a smooth process, and that there
must be good working relationships in the City and therefore he would like the two to get
together and meet about the changes.
Councilor Withers said he could not support delaying because everyone was aware
of why this was being done.
Councilor Duffy asked for a reaction from the Planning Department and Mr.
Johnston said this would put him in an awkward position and he said he would prefer to
have a clearer understanding of the relationship between his office and the City Attorney’s
office and he said he did not believe that clarity exist.
The motion to defer failed by a vote resulting in a tie. Ayes (3). Councilors Duffy,
Ellis and Kelly. Nays (3) Councilors Greenlaw, Withers and Devine.
Upon a motion Councilor Kelly moved approval of Resolution 14-84, revisions to
the Unified Development Ordinance Procedures Manual to include the changes “The
Planning Office prepares the staff report. The City Attorney, in consultation with the
Planning Office, prepares a draft resolution.”; motion was seconded by Councilor Ellis.
Vice-Mayor Withers asked for clarification on the process. City Attorney Dooley
stated that both the Planning Department and the City Attorney’s office must work
together in order to bring items to City Council for review and approval. She said there
18763
Regular Session 10/14/14
was no way the City Attorney could draft a resolution without help from the Planning
Department, nor could the Planning Department prepare a staff report without input from
the City Attorney. She said it must be a relationship of cooperation and coordination.
There must be integration of legal advice from the beginning to the end. She said they
cannot operate individually; they can only operate in coordination.
The motion passed by the following unanimously recorded votes. Ayes (6).
Councilors Greenlaw, Withers, Devine, Duffy, Ellis and Kelly. Nays (0).
Resolution 14-85, Releasing Prior Allocations of Motor Fuels Tax
