City Clerk Moore presented the item and identified the following speakers in support of UP-13-04: Randy Royal, 501 Independence Parkway, Suite 300, representing Wawa Marketplace at Green Tree Road. Tony Nero, 222 Central Drive, Virginia Beach, representing Armada Hoffler, was available for questions. Chris Odle, 222 Central Drive, Virginia Beach, representing Armada Hoffler, was available for questions. City Clerk Moore identified the following speakers in opposition to UP-13-04: Thomas Arrington, 305 Stonewood Court, representing self. Susan Lewis, 409 Woodspring Arch, representing self and Oakbrooke Meadows Civic League. Terence Newton, 412 Woodspring Arch, representing self. Robert Raper, 513 King Maple Court, representing self. Terese Raper, 513 King Maple Court, representing self. Council Member West, on a motion second by Council Member Ike, moved approval of UP-13-04, with the revised stipulations as offered by the applicant through #17, as presented. Council Member West offered comments of support for the application and stated that there would be time for staff to address the community s safety concerns, if the motion was approved. Council Member Ritter asked Director of Development and Permits Jay Tate to the podium to address her questions regarding the build out of the entire parcel. Discussion continued between Council Member Ritter and Mr. Tate regarding the use permit requirement because of the gas pumps requested; the contemplated improvements on Green Tree Road associated with the full development of the parcel; and the suggested alternatives for improvement of safety at the Woodspring Arch/Green Tree Road intersection. Council Member Ritter initiated discussion on stipulation #18, as suggested by City Attorney Proctor, and noted it would be unfortunate for the City to give up the potential of the pro-rata share, if a stop light was needed in the future. Council Member Ritter requested that Council Members West and Ike (maker and seconder of the motion on the floor) consider including stipulation #18 with the deletion of shall be paid by the applicant/owner prior to issuance of a certificate of occupancy language

7 Vice Mayor de Triquet requested that City Attorney Proctor comment on the revised language, as suggested by Council Member Ritter. City Attorney Proctor advised there was a pro-rata policy for traffic signalization in the Public Facilities Manual, and that the stipulation facilitated implementation of the policy. Vice Mayor de Triquet requested that City Attorney Proctor read the amended language in stipulation #18 for consideration by the maker and seconder of the motion. City Attorney Proctor read amended stipulation #18 into the record as follows: The applicant/owner shall contribute its pro-rated share of costs for any traffic signal installed at the intersection of Green Tree Road and Woodspring Arch. The signal may be installed at such time that the City Manager or his designee determines the signal is required in the interest of public safety. The applicant/owner s pro-rated share shall be determined by the Director of Development and Permits and nothing herein shall require the City to install a traffic signal at the intersection of Green Tree Road and Woodspring Arch. Vice Mayor de Triquet called the agent for the applicant, Randy Royal, to the podium for comment on the amended language for stipulation #18. Mr. Royal stated the amended language was unacceptable because it left the owner/applicant open in perpetuity for a pro-rata share of a traffic signal at that location. He further stated that even though the owner/applicant did not agree with the stipulation, there should be a sunset clause if the stipulation were to be considered. Council Member West declined to add stipulation #18 with amended language to the motion for approval. Council Member Ritter called on City Attorney Proctor to explain the difference in a rezoning using proffers and a use permit using stipulations. City Attorney Proctor explained that a conditional rezoning could carry proffers offered voluntarily by an applicant and that the City could not impose proffers on a rezoning applicant. She explained that with a conditional use permit the City may attach stipulations which were conditions of approval. Council Member Ritter initiated discussion with Mr. Tate and Mr. Royal on the approximate value of the pro-rata share of a traffic signal. Mr. Tate explained the calculation was based on the amount of traffic exiting at that location from the proposed shopping center, and suggested ten percent of the total cost of a traffic signal. Mr. Royal suggested the cost of a traffic signal was approximately $300,000, and he stated the applicant/owner would be willing to stipulate a prorata share of $30,000 provided there was a sunset clause of five years. Vice Mayor de Triquet called on City Attorney Proctor for comment. City Attorney Proctor stated the stipulation could be amended to read, The applicant/owner shall contribute its pro-rated share of costs for any traffic signal installed at the intersection of Green Tree Road and Woodspring Arch within five years of June 25, The signal may be installed at such time that the City Manager or his designee determines that the signal is required in the interest of - 7 -

8 public safety. The applicant/owner s pro-rated share shall be determined by the Director of Development and Permits based on the amount of traffic generated by the subject development in relation to the amount of traffic generated from the development of Green Tree Shopping Center, said amount not to exceed the sum of $30,000. Nothing herein shall require the City to install a traffic signal at the intersection of Green Tree Road and Woodspring Arch.
