In 2011, the Virginia Beach City Council granted a Modification of Conditions (proffers) for the creation of three out parcels on 5.5 acres of property that was part of the shopping center’s expansive parking lot.

The site is a portion of a two-acre out parcel of the Super Kroger grocery store property located at the corner of Holland Road and Windsor Oaks Boulevard.

The applicant requests a Conditional Use Permit in order to operate a tire and wheels sales and service facility, with up to 15 employees, on one of the out parcels.

The proposed typical hours of operation are 8:00 a.m. to 6:00 p.m., Monday through Friday, and 8:00 a.m. to 5:00 p.m. on Saturdays.

Vehicular ingress/egress is proposed via an internal drive aisle that was established when the out parcels were created. The shopping center has two unsignalized full-access access points on Windsor Oaks Boulevard, one right-in/right-out access point on Windsor Oaks Boulevard, and one signalized access point on Holland Road at the intersection of Governors Way. A total of 29 parking spaces are depicted, meeting the minimum parking requirement.

The submitted elevations depict a single story building with primary exterior of brick veneer. A solider course near the top of the facades and a cast stone water table provide architectural detail to the building.

Three overhead garage doors are proposed along the western façade, facing Windsor Oaks Boulevard.

An attractive 30-foot wide planting area is proposed along Holland Road, depicted as a mix of trees and shrubs. Pedestrian access to the existing sidewalk along Holland Road is also proposed.

The Comprehensive Plan identifies this site as being located within the Suburban Area and provides general planning policies that focus on preserving and protecting the overall character, economic value, aesthetic quality of stable neighborhoods, and reinforcing the suburban characteristics of commercial centers and other non-residential areas. Achieving these goals requires that land use activities either maintain or enhance the existing neighborhoods through compatibility with surroundings, quality and attractiveness of site and buildings, improved mobility, environmental responsibility, livability, and effective buffering with respect to type, size, intensity and relationship.

There does not appear to be any significant natural or cultural resources on the property.

Master Transportation Plan and Capital Improvement Program The City’s Master Transportation Plan and Major Street Network Ultimate Rights-of-Way classifies this section of Holland Road as a medium arterial with an ultimate right-of-way of 165 feet to provide up to six lanes, accommodating a shared use path and sidewalk, landscaped median, and curb and gutter.

Water This site must connect to City water. There is an existing 16-inch City water main along Holland Road and an eight-inch City water main along Windsor Oaks Boulevard.

Sewer This site must connect to City sanitary sewer. There is an existing eight-inch gravity sanitary sewer main along Windsor Oaks Boulevard. Sewer and pump station analysis for Pump Station #577 may be required to determine if flows can be accommodated,

The modification approved by the City Council in 2011 resulted in the creation of three outparcels that replaced an excessive number of parking spaces and provided an opportunity to create a more pleasingly aesthetic along Holland Road. The modification required that when this site was developed, the proposal must adhere to specific retail design guidelines, planting enhancements, signage limitations and site design specifications. The submitted layout and building design and the proposed Conditional Use Permit for auto repair, in Staff’s opinion, meets the intent of the approved 2011 modification and is recommended for approval, subject to the conditions below.
