'-• 11'. • A. Summary of Request • The site is in the Bayview neighborhood, along E. Bayview Boulevard between Cape View Avenue and Inlet Road. • The site is currently undeveloped but is platted as a flag lot. • Granting this request will allow a single-family home to be built on the existing flag lot. B. Plan Consistency • plallorfolk2030 designates this site as Single-family Suburban. o The "Identifying Land Use Strategies" chapter of plallorfolk2030 identifies the single-family suburban land use category as a location for single-family detached development characterized by houses set back further from the street on lots of 70 feet wide or more and approximately 7,500 square feet or more. • Given that the proposed flag lot is in a location where lot widths generally range between 75 and 125 feet and setbacks range between 40 and 60 feet, the proposed Conditional Use Permit is consistent with plallorfolk2030. C. Zoning Analysis i. General • The site is zoned SF-6, which permits this use with a Conditional Use Permit. • The site is within the Bayview neighborhood, an area developed primarily with single- family homes and duplexes, with various multifamily uses as well. • The lot is subdivided and complies with the minimum lot width and size for a flag lot. o Has the minimum of 20 feet of frontage on a public street, and; o The lot area is of a flag lot is greater than 1.5 times the minimum lot area of the applicable district (7,500 square feet). • However, the rear flag lot was never developed; it is in common ownership with the front lot and therefore requires a Conditional Use Permit in order to be developed. • The driveway is 20 feet wide with a total lot area of 35,800 square feet; the property complies with the criteria to develop a flag lot. • The use of an existing flag lot can be considered an appropriate technique for making efficient use of parcels with exceptional depth under certain circumstances. ii. Parking For a single-family home in the Suburban Character District, two parking spaces are required • The site plan shows an accommodation of at least two parking spaces iii. Flood Zone The property is located in the X (Low to Moderate) Flood Zone, which is a low-to- moderate-risk flood zone. D. Mobility Analysis • City Council adopted a Complete Streets Policy in 2017. • There are already sidewalks on East Bayview Boulevard and property is a flag lot with only twenty feet of frontage; no further mobility improvements are necessary. E. Historic Resources Impacts The site is not located in any local, state, or federal historic district. F. Public Schools Impacts • School attendance zones include Bay View Elementary School (85% utilization), Azalea Garden Middle School (84% utilization) and Norview High School (99% utilization). • The proposed development of one additional single-family dwelling will not have a demonstrable impact on school utilization. G. Environmental Impacts • The new single-family home will undergo the building permit plan review process, which will ensure compliance with all standards set forth in the Zoning Ordinance, including landscaping, perimeter buffering, stormwater management, and the Resilience Quotient. • The lot is heavily wooded, with plans to remove eight (8) mature trees during development. • A robust tree canopy is supported by plallotfolk2030 as well as the Green Infrastructure Plan goal to increase Norfolk's tree canopy to 30% coverage. Staff recommends the planting of two (2) new trees for every one (1) that is removed in accordance with Landscaping Standards set forth in Section 5.2.6 in the Zoning Ordinance. H. AICUZ Impacts N/A I. Surrounding Area/Site Impacts The site is surrounded by single-family homes. J. Payment of Taxes The owner of the property is current on all taxes. K. Civic League • The application was sent to the Bayview Civic League on December 11. • An email of support was received from the Bayview Civic League on December 3 for the submitted "Maple" house design, with a final vote of 15 in favor, 12 against, and 8 abstentions. L. Communication Outreach/Notification • Legal notice was posted on the property on December 18. • Letters were mailed to all property owners within 300 feet of the property on January 9. • Legal notification was placed in The Virginian-Pilot on January 10 and January 17. M. Recommendation Staff recommends that the Conditional Use Permit request be approved subject to the conditions shown below: (a) No additional trees shall be removed during the development of the property other than the eight (8) that were shown on the submitted site plan. (b) Two (2) trees shall be planted for every one (1) tree that is removed from the site during development. (c) The house shall be developed in accordance with "The Maple" house elevations, dated April 2016 and revised on October 8, 2018. (d) The house shall have a finished floor elevation of at least 36 inches above grade.

CONDITIONAL USE PERMIT REVIEW STANDARDS A Conditional Use Permit may be approved if the applicant demonstrates that the proposed conditional use: 1) Is consistent with the purposes, goals and policies of the comprehensive plan and other applicable city-adopted plans; 2) Complies with all applicable zoning district-specific standards in Article 3.
