The current request is to modify the conditions associated with the 2011 Modification of Conditions. More specifically, the applicant is seeking to modify the permit on the property to expand the operating hours of the museum and add more defining criteria for special events held on the property that were not clearly defined with previous approvals. The current operating hours of the museum are 9:00 a.m. to 5:00 p.m., seven days a week, except for summer months which allows the museum to cease operation at dusk.

In addition, the applicant is requesting to have no more than 8 special events on the property per calendar year that are of an outdoor nature, having outdoor amplified sound, and which exceed 500 persons in attendance. Events that are customarily incidental to the museum use, such as indoor weddings, or other charitable and social events that do not meet the criteria mentioned above shall not be considered a special event.  Considerations: The Military Aviation Museum has been operating on the site for over 15 years and has been a valued community asset for both the city and the Hampton Roads area. Staff believes and the Planning Commission concurred that the request is in keeping with the policies of the Comprehensive Plan, as there will be no major alterations to the site layout and all outdoor events will cease operation by 10:00 p.m. The Musem’s request to host up to 8 outdoor events with outdoor amplified sound and with no more than 500 persons in attendance is reasonable and will positively contribute to the museum’s operation while also being mindful of the surrounding residents. The 8 special events will be permitted through the City’s Special Events Office and thus will be reviewed individually to ensure adequate Packet Pg. 58 7.L.a Military Aviation Museum Page 2 of 3 Attachment: 01_ARF Package for Military Aviation Museum (3949 : Military Aviation Museum (Applicant) Virginia Beach Airport, LLC (Property steps are taken to minimize impacts to nearby property owners and residents.

Modifications to the Conditional Use Permit were subsequently approved by City Council, in 2008 and 2011. The 2008 modification permitted an expansion of the museum to include five additional structures and additional parking while the 2011 modification, allowed for a new 45,000 square foot hanger/exhibition area with associated parking to the west of the existing hanger/museum. • The applicant is now seeking a modification to expand the operating hours for the museum, to accommodate special events held on site, as well as other events that are customarily incidental to the museum use. • The current operating hours for the museum are 9:00 a.m. to 5:00 p.m., seven days a week, except for the summer months when the museum ceases operation at dusk. With the current request, the applicant is proposing to amend the hours of operation for the museum to 9:00 a.m. to 9:00 p.m. seven (7) days a week, and no later than 10:00 p.m. for any Special Events permitted by the City’s Special Events Office. • No more than eight special events of an outdoor nature having outdoor amplified sound, and which exceed 500 persons in attendance, will be allowed on the property per calendar year.

The existing Military Aviation Museum has been operating on this site for over 15 years. The museum is a valued community asset for both the City and the Hampton Roads area as a whole. Since the airport on the property operates under a separate Use Permit and a subsequent court order, the current evaluation applies only to the applicant’s request to expand the operating hours for the museum and to host a limited number of special events on site, beyond Military Aviation Museum Agenda Item 4 Page Packet Pg.262 7.L.a those events that are considered customary with and incidental to the museum. In Staff’s opinion, the request to host up to 8 outdoor events with amplified sound and more than 500 people in attendance is reasonable and will positively contribute to the museum’s operation while being mindful of surrounding residents. All events that meet the criteria Attachment: 01_ARF Package for Military Aviation Museum (3949 : Military Aviation Museum (Applicant) Virginia Beach Airport, LLC (Property stated above, and as identified in Condition 3, will be permitted through the City’s Special Events Office and thus will be reviewed individually to ensure adequate steps are taken to minimize impacts to nearby property owners and residents. In Staff’s view, the request is in keeping with the policies of the Comprehensive Plan, as there will be no major alterations to the site layout and all outdoor events will cease operation by 10:00 p.m. The recommended conditions are designed to limit the impact of the museum to a level that is compatible with the agricultural community. Based on these considerations, Staff recommends approval with the conditions listed below. Recommended Conditions 1.

Comprehensive Plan Recommendations The Comprehensive Plan designates this site as being within the Rural Area. The Rural Area is located in the southern half of the City south of Indian River and Sandbridge Roads. It is characterized as low, flat land with wide floodplains and altered drainage with a presence of agricultural and rural related activities including traditional and specialty crop cultivation, tree farms, equestrian facilities, wetland banks, fish farms and other similar uses. It is an important objective to protect and sustain all of our valuable environmental, scenic and agricultural resources against inappropriate activities and intense growth pressures. Natural & Cultural Resources Impacts The site is located in the Southern Rivers watershed. Drainage in the Southern Rivers watershed is highly impacted by the presence of high ground water, poorly draining soils, and high-water surface elevations in downstream receiving waters. The majority of the site is grass field with a grass runway. There is an existing airport hanger with a paved parking lot and water tower. There does not appear to be any significant environmental or local cultural features on the site; however, the museum, including the proposed facilities, is indicative of the role of this area of the city during World War II. Several airfields in rural southern area of the city served as satellite fields to Norfolk Naval Air Station, serving in support to operations, training, and maintenance of WWII aircraft. Traffic Impacts Street Name Present Volume Present Capacity Generated Traffic* Existing Land Use 2 – No Data Available Princess Anne Road 9,900 ADT1 11,200 ADT 1 (LOS 4 “D”) Proposed Land Use 3 – No Data Available 1 Average Daily Trips 2 as defined by a museum with 3 4 No information available in the LOS = Level of Service up to 8 special events per ITE Trip Generation Manual for calendar year special events *The proposed modifications to the operating hours will have a minimal effect on traffic on Princess Anne Road. The trip generation for the proposed Special Events will be determined at the time that a Special Event permit is submitted to the City of Virginia Beach for review and approval.

COUNCIL DISTRICT 3 MEETING DATE: June 4, 2024  Background: In 1998, City Council approved a rezoning of a 21.3-acre parcel for the development of a corporate office park. At that time, a Deed of Conditions and Restrictions was recorded to limit the use of the site to office, distribution, warehousing, and production studios and accessory uses. The Deed was further amended in 2009 to expand the uses to include: business, medical, financial, non- profit, professional and similar office buildings, eating and drinking establishments without drive-through windows, printing, lithographic or publishing establishments, office, distribution, warehousing, and production studios and accessory uses. In addition, Unit 3B is permitted to have a full-service financial institution with drive- throughs and ATMs. The City is under contract to acquire 7.82-acres of the 21.3-acre parcel, known as, Units 1, 2A, and 2B of this condominium park and plans to utilize the existing 65,700 square foot building located on Unit 1 for the Office of the Voter Registrar and Central Absentee Precinct. Since the 2009 Amended Deed of Conditions and Restrictions does not list public buildings or public meeting grounds as allowable uses, this request is needed to expand the list of permissible uses.  Considerations: The Planning Commission found the proposed modification to allow for the operation of an Office of Voter Registrar and Central Absentee Precinct, to be acceptable. The use is compatible to that of the surrounding area and will not cause any negative impacts. This proposal will remove private properties adjacent to Mount Trashmore and change them to public grounds with access to Mount Trashmore Park.

At the time, a Deed of Conditions and Restrictions was recorded with the Circuit Court instead of the Conditional Zoning Agreement (aka proffers) that is typically done with a conditional rezoning request. For the purposes of the development of this property, the Deed of Conditions and Restrictions carry the same weight as proffers. • The 1998 approval limits the use of the site to office, distribution, warehousing, and production studios and accessory uses. • In 2009, City Council granted a modification request to expand the uses to include: business, medical, financial, non- profit, professional and similar office buildings, eating and drinking establishments without drive-through windows, printing, lithographic or publishing establishments, office, distribution, warehousing, and production studios and accessory uses. In addition, Unit 3B is permitted to have a full-service financial institution with drive-throughs and ATMs. • The applicant, the City of Virginia Beach, is under contract to acquire 7.82-acres of the 21.3-acre parcel, known as, Units 1, 2A, and 2B of this condominium park and plans to utilize the existing 65,700 square foot building located on Unit 1 for the Office of the Voter Registrar and Central Absentee Precinct. The areas referred to as Unit 2A and 2B were never developed. Since the 2009 Amended Deed of Conditions and Restrictions does not list public building or public meeting grounds as allowable uses, this request is needed to expand the list of permissible uses. • At this time, there are no plans to alter the existing building exterior or to develop Units 2A and 2B.

Independence Boulevard in the vicinity of this application is considered a six-lane major urban arterial. The MTP proposes an eight-lane facility within a 150-foot right-of-way. The Independence Boulevard/Edwin Drive Intersection improvement project is a fully funded CIP project that will impact this development site. This project will convert left-turn movements in both directions of South Independence Boulevard at Edwin Drive to median left-turns upstream and downstream of the mainline intersection (Median U-Turns) and widen east-bound and west-bound approaches on Edwin Drive. The project will also include a continuous five-foot sidewalk on both sides of Independence and Edwin with a connection to existing shared-use path on Edwin as well as installation of bus shelters at two existing bus stops. This project is scheduled to begin construction in 2031 and right-of-way acquisition is scheduled to begin in 2029. Holland Road in the vicinity of this application is considered a four-lane divided minor urban arterial facility. The Holland Road Phase I CIP project is approved for this area of Holland Road. This project will reconfigure Holland Road as a six- lane superstreet by adding additional through lanes in both directions from South Independence Boulevard to South Plaza Trail and by installing Restricted Crossing U-Turn (R-CUT), which helps reduce crashed, intersections at the intersections that lack a traffic signal. The project will also include a continuous five-foot wide sidewalk on both sides of Holland Road, as well as LED streetlights and installation of bus shelters at four existing bus stops. Construction of this project is scheduled to begin in 2031. Public Utility Impacts Water & Sewer The property is connected to City water and sanitary sewer services.

COUNCIL DISTRICT 1 MEETING DATE: June 4, 2024  Background: The applicant is requesting a Conditional Use Permit (CUP) to operate a day-care center within an existing 12,000-square-foot church. The applicant was unaware of the need for a CUP and has been operating at this location since August 2021. The day-care currently has 35 children, ages 5 to 12, enrolled in the program and the applicant is requesting to increase this number to 40 with this use permit. Parents can elect to send their children on a full-time (Monday through Friday) or part-time (Tuesday & Thursday) basis. While children are provided instruction and tutoring services in core subjects and electives, the instruction is meant to supplement rather than replace a child’s education. As such, parents are required to submit a Notice of Intent to Home Instruct prior to full-time enrollment. On-site facilities used by the day-care include a classroom, a multi-purpose room and full kitchen, gymnasium for indoor play, and soccer fields on the southern half of the property for outdoor play. Hours of operation are 8:00 a.m. to 4:30 p.m. The center has 5 employees.  Considerations: Staff believes that a day-care within an existing religious use is acceptable as it is compatible with the adjacent residential neighborhoods and utilizes space that is unoccupied outside of the typical hours for the church. Although this day-care provides elective and select core-subject tutoring, this does not meet the definition of a private school per the City’s Zoning Ordinance, since private schools must have a curriculum similar to that of a public school, which this day-care does not. There is ample parking on site and staff does not anticipate a substantial increase in traffic along Providence Road. 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.

There shall be no more than 40 children enrolled in the facility at any one time; however, the ultimate occupant load for the Day-care Center shall be established by the City of Virginia Beach Fire Marshal’s Office, but at no point shall the total number exceed 40 children. 2. The applicant shall obtain all the necessary permits, inspections, and approvals from the Department of Social Services, the Fire Department, and the Permits and Inspections Division of the Department of Planning & Community Development before occupancy of the building. A Certificate of Occupancy for the use shall be obtained from the Permits and Inspections Division of the Department of Planning & Community Development. 3. In order to comply with Section 240.1 of the Zoning Ordinance for signage for Religious Uses in residential districts, no more than two freestanding signs, one at each entrance, shall be permitted on the property. 4. Subdivision of any of the property that has been identified as within the Conditional Use Permit (CUP), shall require a modification of the CUP to remove such property from the purview of the CUP.  Attachments: Staff Report and Disclosure Statements Location Map Minutes of Planning Commission Hearing Recommended Action: Staff recommends Approval.

The application was filed in response to a Notice of Violation issued on January 29, 2024, for operating what was initially considered to be a private school in a Residential District. • A Notice of Violation (NOV) was issued by the Zoning Division on January 29, 2024, for operating what was initially considered to be a private school in a Residential District. The applicant, Milestone Manor, LLC, was unaware that operation of a day-care center or child care education center within a religious use required a Conditional Use Permit within the R-10 Zoning District. Upon receipt of the NOV, the applicant promptly filed a Conditional Use Permit application with the Planning Department to rectify the violation. • Upon further discussion with the applicant, it was determined by the Zoning Administrator the operation constituted a day-care within an existing religious use rather than a private school since the curriculum was not similar to that of a public school, nor is the applicant responsible for the education of the children. • In 1972, a Conditional Use Permit for a church was approved for the subject site. In 1983 and 1985, two additional Conditional Use Permits were approved for the operation of private school and preschool, respectively. As a condition of approval, the owner/applicant was required to file an extension for both the private school and preschool use permits every two years, or the permits would no longer be valid. Since an extension request has not been made since 1987, both permits are void. Another Conditional Use Permit approved in 2000, permitted the addition of a two-story “family life center” on site, which contains classrooms, offices, and a gymnasium. In 2011, a Conditional Use Permit was approved for the subject site to operate youth soccer summer camps and provide practice space for youth soccer clubs. • Care is currently provided to approximately 35 children ranging from the age of 5 to 12 and is offered on either a part-time or full-time basis. The applicant is expecting the daycare to reach 40 children in the next enrollment cycle. There are five employees on staff. • Enrolled children attend “elective” classes and are offered tutoring services. Coursework is similar to homeschooling curriculum, and all Since the provided services are intended to be a supplement to rather than a replacement of public, private, or homeschool instruction, all parents must file a Notice of Intent to Home Instruct for homeschooling with Virginia Department of Education prior to full-time enrollment. Children are separated by age groups and switch activities every forty-five minutes. The existing kitchen on site is used for meal prep and students eat meals and snacks in a multipurpose room on-site. Recess time is held inside the gymnasium and outside within the unfenced soccer fields with adult supervision. • Operating hours are from 8:00 a.m. to 4:30 p.m. Monday through Friday with before and after-school hours care from 8:00 a.m. to 9:00 a.m. and 3:00 p.m. to 4:30 p.m., respectively. 9:00 a.m. to 3:00 p.m. are standard hours of operation for the day-care services. • The property owner, Calvary Assembly of God, hosts a service on Wednesday nights and two services on Sunday, outside of the operating hours for Milestone Manor.

This property falls within the Suburban Area, as defined in the Comprehensive Plan, which recommends that non-residential developments within the Suburban Area are complementary to existing residential areas. Staff finds the property to be capable of adhering to the guiding principles and is able to successfully promote the Comprehensive Plan’s policies for creating and maintaining the “Great Neighborhoods” principle. It is anticipated that minimal traffic will be generated by the addition of a day-care with a capacity of 40 children to this site. The anticipated drop off and pick up times are 8:45 a.m. and 3:00 p.m. However, parents have the option to drop off or pick up students as early as 8:00 a.m. or as late as 4:30 p.m. if they sign up for additional before or after care. The staggered pick up and drop off times will help reduce any traffic congestion generated from this site, and as confirmed by the City’s Traffic Engineering staff, is already minimal. Based on these considerations, Staff recommends approval of these applications, subject to the conditions listed below. Recommended Conditions 1. There shall be no more than 40 children enrolled in the facility at any one time; however, the ultimate occupant load for the Day-care Center shall be established by the City of Virginia Beach Fire Marshal’s Office, but at no point shall the total number exceed 40 children. 2.

Comprehensive Plan Recommendations The Comprehensive Plan designates the subject property as being within the “Suburban Area”. The established guiding principles of the Suburban Area are enabled to protect the stability of the Suburban Area while providing guidance for creating vibrant and distinctive places. The primary guiding principle, to create and maintain “Great Neighborhoods”, looks for non-residential uses to be complementary to the existing neighborhood. The proposed mixed-use nature of this site is acceptable as it maintains neighborhood stability and provides residents with a diversity of options for child day-care.

The applicant is seeking a Conditional Use Permit to operate a Day-care Center with an existing 12, 000 square foot church located on 8.24 acre R-10 residentially zoned parcel. The application was filed in response to a Notice of Violation issued on January 29, 2024 for operating what was initially considered to be a private school in a residential district. Upon further discussion with the applicant it was determined by the Zoning Administrator, the operation was constituted as a daycare within an existing religious use rather than a private school. Care is currently provided to approximately 35 kids. It is recommended the total not to exceed 40, and in the Staff’s opinion this request for a Conditional Use Permit to Packet Pg. 133 7.L.a Attachment: 03_ARF Package for Milestone Manor LLC (3951 : Milestone Manor, LLC (Applicant) Calvary Assembly of God (Property Owner) operate a day-care in a religious use is acceptable.

COUNCIL DISTRICT 5 MEETING DATE: June 4, 2024  Background: The applicant is requesting a Conditional Use Permit to operate a Wildlife Rehabilitation Center on an approximately three-acre parcel zoned AG-2 Agriculture. The applicant currently holds a Category IV Wildlife Rehabilitation Permit from Virginia Department of Wildlife Resources (VDWR) and has volunteered as a wildlife rehabber for six years. She plans to rehabilitate native avian species at the proposed facility. Upon receiving a Conditional Use Permit, the applicant will apply for a Category I permit from VDWR and a Wildlife Rehabilitator Permit from U.S. Fish & Wildlife Service (USFWS). The permit from USFWS is required when rehabilitating migratory birds. For the first two years as a Category I permittee, the applicant will rehabilitate orphaned avians (e.g., ducklings, goslings, etc.). Eventually, the applicant intends to rehabilitate injured birds. There are two existing outdoor walk-in aviaries on the property that will be used, and any future aviaries would be located in the same general area on the property. The applicant will operate this facility as an individual with occasional volunteer support; it will not be open to the general public. A sponsoring veterinarian is required by State and Federal regulations to provide medical care for any injured or ill animals; a letter from the applicant’s sponsoring veterinarian is on file with the Department of Planning & Community Development. No releases will occur on site.  Considerations: This property is in a corridor of London Bridge Road that maintains an agricultural character; notably, it is close to Hunt Club Farm. The proposed use is low impact and is compatible with similar by-right agricultural uses such as the keeping of fowl and other livestock. The applicant has six years of experience as a wildlife rehabber and maintains a certification with the International Wildlife Rehabilitation Council. The enclosures proposed by the applicant are appropriate for the kind of care provided to wildlife and are subject to inspection by VDWR. Animals will be released off-site and as soon as they are of an age and condition to be released. Additionally, the USFWS restricts the amount of time that migratory birds may be held to no more than 180 days and all birds must be released once recuperated. Packet Pg. 137 7.L.a Michele Cleland Page 2 of 3 While no individual will be on site at all hours, the applicant has plans to install Attachment: 04_ARF Package for Michele Cleland (3952 : Michele Cleland (Applicant & Property Owner) Conditional Use Permit (Wildlife video monitoring of the site and the enclosures. She lives within a mile of the site and has a sponsoring veterinarian and will be able to respond to any emergencies quickly. The applicant received a letter of support from Hunt Club Farm and the Pine Ridge Civic League, as well as a 26-signature petition of support from residents of the Pine Ridge neighborhood. Further details pertaining to the application, as well as Staff’s evaluation, are provided in the attached Staff Report. There is no known opposition to this request.  Recommendation: On May 8, 2024, the Planning Commission passed a motion to recommend approval of this item on the Consent Agenda, by a recorded vote of 11-0. 1. This Conditional Use Permit only permits rehabilitation of avians. A modification of conditions shall be required to permit rehabilitation of small mammals or other animal species. 2. The applicant shall comply with all the provisions of Section 242.4 of the City Zoning Ordinance (CZO) pertaining to a Wildlife Rehabilitation Facility. 3. The applicant shall comply with all provisions established for wildlife rehabilitation by the Virginia Department of Wildlife Resources and U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service. 4. The application shall comply with all rabies immunization protocols as established for wildlife rehabilitation by the Virginia Department of Wildlife Resources as required. 5. The applicant shall post and maintain a sign with contact information in case of emergencies for the operator. 6. The applicant shall maintain a sponsorship from a veterinarian that can provide veterinary services for diseased or injured animals. 7. The portion of the property in which aviaries or other wildlife containment are located shall be enclosed with a fence at least 48 inches tall. 8. The site shall be gated or otherwise secured when the operator or other volunteers are not present on site. 9. No animals shall be dropped-off between the hours of 10:00 p.m. and 7:00 a.m. 10. No animals shall be released at the subject site or within the neighborhood. 11. Animal waste shall be removed daily and disposed of in a lawful manner. Packet Pg. 138 7.L.a Michele Cleland Page 3 of 3 12. All animals shall be properly and humanely contained within the pre-release Attachment: 04_ARF Package for Michele Cleland (3952 : Michele Cleland (Applicant & Property Owner) Conditional Use Permit (Wildlife structure(s).

She will rehabilitate orphaned native avian species, including waterfowl, waterbirds, and songbirds, and will eventually provide care of injured animals. The applicant will be operating this facility as an individual, not as part of an organization. Animals will be brought to her primarily from other licensed rehabbers in the Virginia Beach area. • Since only Home-based Wildlife Rehabilitation Centers are permitted by right in AG-2 Agricultural District, a Conditional Use Permit is required for the proposed use. This property was conveyed to the applicant with a deed restriction barring development of residential uses on the property and no dwellings currently exist that could be inhabited by the applicant. • Immediate facilities required for the use include two walk-in aviaries and a shed for supplies. Should the operations fare well and there is sufficient financial support and capacity, the applicant states that future facilities may include an additional shed and more aviaries as needed. The applicant has expressed an interest in branching into providing rehabilitation for small mammals (non-rabies vector animals) but is presently focusing on birds. A modification would be required to add care for small mammals in the future. • The applicant has indicated that she may use heavy fabric or another fabric covering to partially screen the aviaries from view from London Bridge Road. The fabric covering will provide some additional shielding from passersby and traffic from the road. • The aviaries the applicant will use are enclosed mesh structures with predator-proof flooring. These types of enclosures are used for juvenile birds who need to learn how to adapt to ambient temperatures and typical outdoor noises, such as those of predators. They provide a crucial link in the rehabilitation of orphaned avians before they can be released at a designated off-site location. • A one-foot no ingress/egress easement is recorded on the parcel limiting access to the site to a shared entrance on the eastern side of the property. The shared entrance is on the adjacent parcel, which has a shared cross-access agreement with both the subject property and another property to the west. A private driveway from London Bridge Road still exists on the property, however, the driveway is gated and locked, and will only be used in the event of an emergency. The applicant has agreed to only access the site from the shared entrance. The property has sufficient pavement width to permit several cars to park on site. • The property is currently fenced, and the applicant will install a series of security cameras and may add some site lighting. The facility will not be open or accessible to the general public. • The applicant currently has a Category IV Wildlife Rehabilitation permit from Virginia Department of Wildlife Resources (VDWR) and has six years of wildlife rescue, transport, and rehabilitation experience. Additionally, she has a current certification from the International Wildlife Rehabilitation Council. • The VDWR Category IV license permits the applicant to provide direct care for wildlife under direct supervision by Category I, II, or III permittees at the permittees’ particular facility. With approval of a Conditional Use Permit, the applicant will apply for a Category I Wildlife Rehabilitation permit from VDWR. This license is for “apprentice” rehabbers and will permit the applicant to care for wildlife on her own. Per restrictions from VDWR, Category I rehabbers must be sponsored by an active Category II or Category III permittee and must meet VDWR’s training requirements. Their facility is also subject to inspection by VDWR. Michele Cleland Agenda Item 6 PacketPage Pg. 2 141 7.L.a • As the applicant intends to rehabilitate migrant birds, she will also need to obtain a U.S. Fish & Wildlife Service (Federal) Wildlife Rehabilitator Permit. This permit restricts the amount of time that migratory birds may be held to no more than 180 days; all birds must be released once recuperated. The permit is only valid so long as the holder is Attachment: 04_ARF Package for Michele Cleland (3952 : Michele Cleland (Applicant & Property Owner) Conditional Use Permit (Wildlife also in compliance with state regulations. • The applicant has a certified, sponsoring veterinarian that will be on-call to provide care to animals as needed. This is a requirement of VDWR licensing and the U.S. Fish & Wildlife Service permit for migratory birds. 2 Zoning History # Request 1 MDC (Religious Use) Approved 05/04/2021 CUP (Religious Use) Approved 11/08/2017 2 CRZ (AG-2 to Conditional O-1) Approved 12/09/2008 1 1 2 3 Application Types CUP – Conditional Use Permit MDC – Modification of Conditions STC – Street Closure SVR – Subdivision Variance REZ – Rezoning MDP – Modification of Proffers FVR – Floodplain Variance LUP – Land Use Plan CRZ – Conditional Rezoning NON – Nonconforming Use ALT – Alternative Compliance STR – Short Term Rental Evaluation & Recommendation In Staff’s opinion, this request for a Conditional Use Permit for a Wildlife Rehabilitation Center is acceptable. The use is compatible with the existing agricultural character of this corridor of London Bridge Road and will produce minimal noise that might affect the adjoining residential neighborhood. Recommendations in the Comprehensive Plan recommend that non-residential uses in the Suburban Area be complementary to residential uses. In this area, London Bridge Road is characterized by a mix of persistent agricultural uses and recent residential subdivisions. While distinct from bona fide agricultural operations, the rehabilitation facility for avians is very similar to small-scale keeping of poultry and other fowl. It is Staff’s opinion that this use, as presented, is compatible with the existing agricultural uses and is consistent with the overall pattern of agricultural parcels abutting residential neighborhoods. Additionally, the applicant does not intend to construct large buildings or remove the existing mature vegetation on the site. The applicant is well-qualified to operate this type of rehabilitation and will be filling a gap in the local wildlife rehabilitation network. While there are a few rehabbers actively working with birds, they either specialize with the youngest avians or in the final stages for release. The applicant’s facility will provide rehabilitation for avians that effectively age out of being able to be held indoors and to provide them with an environment that will help them acclimate to life in the wild. Minimal traffic is anticipated to be generated by the site. The applicant will be operating this facility by herself with the occasional assistance of other volunteers. As there is an existing no ingress/egress easement along the property’s frontage, Staff recommends Condition 14 to ensure that the existing driveway and a second apron on the property be gated and locked to ensure the shared access point is used. The applicant has reached out to residents of the Pine Ridge neighborhood and has received a letter of support from the Pine Ridge Civic Association, as well as 26 signatures of Michele Cleland Agenda Item 6 PacketPage Pg. 3 142 7.L.a support from residents on Windy Pines Bend, the street to the south of the applicant’s property. Additional letters of support have also been provided to Staff as discussed below. Attachment: 04_ARF Package for Michele Cleland (3952 : Michele Cleland (Applicant & Property Owner) Conditional Use Permit (Wildlife Staff recommends approval of this application subject to the conditions and exhibits below. Recommended Conditions 1. This Conditional Use Permit only permits rehabilitation of avians. A modification of conditions shall be required to permit rehabilitation of small mammals or other animal species. 2. The applicant shall comply with all the provisions of Section 242.4 of the City Zoning Ordinance (CZO) pertaining to a Wildlife Rehabilitation Facility. 3. The applicant shall comply with all provisions established for wildlife rehabilitation by the Virginia Department of Wildlife Resources and U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service. 4. The application shall comply with all rabies immunization protocols as established for wildlife rehabilitation by the Virginia Department of Wildlife Resources as required. 5. The applicant shall post and maintain a sign with contact information in case of emergencies for the operator. 6. The applicant shall maintain a sponsorship from a veterinarian that can provide veterinary services for diseased or injured animals. 7. The portion of the property in which aviaries or other wildlife containment are located shall be enclosed with a fence at least 48 inches tall. 8. The site shall be gated or otherwise secured when the operator or other volunteers are not present on site. 9. No animals shall be dropped-off between the hours of 10:00 p.m. and 7:00 a.m. 10. No animals shall be released at the subject site or within the neighborhood. 11. Animal waste shall be removed daily and disposed of in a lawful manner. 12.

Michele Cleland Agenda Item 6 PacketPage Pg. 4 143 7.L.a Further conditions may be required during the administration of applicable City Ordinances and Standards. Any site plan submitted with this application may require revision during detailed site plan review to meet all applicable City Codes and Standards. All applicable permits required by the City Code, including those administered by the Department of Attachment: 04_ARF Package for Michele Cleland (3952 : Michele Cleland (Applicant & Property Owner) Conditional Use Permit (Wildlife Planning / Development Services Center and Department of Planning / Permits and Inspections Division, and the issuance of a Certificate of Occupancy, are required before any approvals allowed by this application are valid. The applicant is encouraged to contact and work with the Crime Prevention Office within the Police Department for crime prevention techniques and Crime Prevention Through Environmental Design (CPTED) concepts and strategies as they pertain to this site. Comprehensive Plan Recommendations The Comprehensive Plan designates the subject property as part of the Suburban Area, which has as its guiding principle the creation and maintenance of “Great Neighborhoods,” areas that have a mix of residential and complementary non- residential uses. This corridor of London Bridge Road retains agricultural uses, such as Hunt Club Farm, that abut more recent residential subdivisions. The Wildlife Rehabilitation Center, as proposed, will retain the existing mature vegetation, thus maintaining the character of the existing landscape. The use is also similar to other agricultural uses in the corridor and is compatible with the adjacent neighborhood. Natural & Cultural Resources Impacts The site is located in the Southern Rivers watershed. A preliminary stormwater analysis was not provided as the applicant is not proposing any land disturbance associated with this request. No cultural resources are known to be associated with this property.

We appreciate that she plans to keep bees, animals and avians on the AG zoned property.

We also would suggest that the permit include a few conditions. 1. Rehabilitators working on the property shall maintain wildlife rehabilitation certification through the state or as required by law. 2. Animals and Avians will not be released from the site. According to my conversation with Michele these conditions seem to be inline with her CUP request. Please contact me if any additional information is needed at 757-618-6466.

Now, I'll pass it on to the Vice Chair for the Consent Agenda. Ms. Cuellar: Thank you, Mr. Chairman. Today we have eight 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. We'll go ahead and start with Agenda Item Number One, City of Virginia Beach. Mr. Kemp: Thank you. The first item here is an ordinance to amend Section 103 of the Zoning Ordinance, which would permit the Zoning Administrator to make minor modifications to the dimensional requirements of the ordinance. It does so by adding a Section M. What this does specifically is it allows the Zoning Administrator to modify provisions of the Zoning Ordinance by up to 5%. This deals with dimensional requirements, things such as the size, height, or the location of building structures or improvements on the lot. It also establishes a criteria for which the zoning administrator has to review each request and what they have to find. Those are that the strict application of the ordinance would produce an undue hardship, that the hardship is not shared with properties in the same zoning district or vicinity, and that it would not cause a hardship on the adjoining properties. There's also a notification process that's put in place. The Zoning Administrator has to mail out letters to the adjacent property owners to which they have 21 days to respond. A sign will also be posted on the site for 30 days. If there is opposition to it, the Zoning Administrator will review that opposition. If it's substantiated, Packet Pg. 214 7.L.a Attachment: 07_ARF Package for City of Virginia Beach, Administrative Modifications (3955 : An Ordinance to amend Section 103 of the City they would then go to, or have the opportunity to go to the Board of Zoning Appeals for a Variance Request. Lastly, there is a $200 fee associated with this application, and that covers the staff resources and notification costs. Thank you. Ms. Cuellar: Thank you, Mr. Kemp. Is there any opposition to this item being placed on the Consent Agenda? Hearing none, we'll go forward with our next item number, and even though we all know you, please state your name for the record. Ms. Cuellar: Thank you very much, Commissioner.

I'm the Zoning Administrator for the City of Virginia Beach, and I'm the same person who did the first item for the record. All right the second item is an ordinance to amend section 1906 of the zoning ordinance, and this is in regards to the composition and appointment terms for the members of the Old Beach Design Review Committee. In regards to the composition, currently this committee has five members, two are required to be from the Resort Advisory Commission, and the other three are required to be either residence or property owners of the Old Beach neighborhood. What this amendment does is it takes one of the required members from RAC and replaces them with a licensed design professional with relevant work experience. The second change of the amendment is in terms of the appointments, and this is just clarifying. So it adds a subsection that says two of the members will be appointed to one year, first their first term of one year, two to two years, and one member to a three year term, and all subsequent appointments will be three years.
