Rogard Ross, 3800 Rivercrest Place, Chesapeake, Virginia, appeared before the Commission in opposition to R(C)-07-34(Rev 7/15) representing himself. Those who spoke in opposition were concerned about the development impacts to adjacent properties, school impacts, the impact of the proposed proffer reductions, the fiscal impact analysis, and the reduction of green space. COMMISSION DISCUSSION: Commissioner Johnson asked about the proposed building height. Andrew Goldrich, 2325 Evangelines Way, Virginia Beach, a representative for the applicant, stated that it s a 6/12 pitch because it is more aesthetically pleasing than a 4/12 pitch and will uphold better over time. Commissioner Johnson asked Ms. Watkins- White to address the proposed proffer modification. Ms. Watkins-White explained that the market triggered the proffer reduction request. COMMISSION VOTE: Commissioner Van Laethem moved that R(C)-07-34(Rev 7/15) be APPROVED with the proffers as listed in the official agenda, finding the exception compatible with the surrounding area. Commissioner Johnson seconded the motion. The motion was carried by a vote of Commissioners Hutchinson and Kish voted against the motion. Commissioner Morris abstained.
