Mrs. Hanson read R(C)-05-05(Rev 10/14) into the record for Commission review and action.

4 Chesapeake Planning Commission DRAFT January 14, 2015 Public Hearing Minutes Proponent:

Grey Folkes, Applicant, Greystone Land Company LLC, 325 Volvo Parkway, Chesapeake, Virginia, appeared before the Commission on behalf of R(C)-05-05(Rev 10/14).

Dan S. Fuller, 517 Fallen Leaf Lane, Chesapeake, Virginia, appeared before the Commission on behalf of R(C)-05-05(Rev 10/14) representing himself.

COMMISSION DISCUSSION:

Commissioner Johnson stated that based on the staff report he would recommend approval to reduce the proffer amount to the amount requested by the applicant. He said his motion would be based on the fact that the applicant had already offered a proffer of $5,000 per house which exceeded by $1,000 per house for the maximum current guideline.

Chairman Kish asked if his motion included the approval of the other two parts of the application; the reduction of proffers and the number of houses. Commissioner Johnson replied that it did.

The City Attorney’s office asked if the reduction proffer amount was going to apply to the new homes that would be coming later or would it be for all unbuilt lots. Commissioner Johnson stated that it would be applied to all future housing.

Chairman Kish wanted to clarify that the motion was to approve the application as recommended by the staff with the additional approval of the reduction of the proffer cash contribution to $5,000 for all remaining dwellings that had not had a certificate of occupancy issued.

The City Attorney’s office clarified that the staff report said 125 remaining building permits based on the old number with the new number of 208 there were 143 remaining building permits.

Commissioner Morris stated that this was a large sum of money but these were voluntarily contributions made to minimize the impact, and the timing, of this development on our Levels of Service Analysis. The current policy said that $4,000 was the appropriate amount so, in his opinion, this was over and above what the City said would help defray the cost and he would be in support of this application.

COMMISSION VOTE:

Commissioner Johnson moved that R(C)-05-05(Rev 10/14) be APPROVED with the proffers as listed in the official agenda and as recommended by staff with approval of the reduction of cash contribution proffer to $5,000 for all remaining dwellings that had not had a certificate of occupancy issued. Commissioner Perry seconded the motion. The motion was carried by a vote of 8 - 1. Commissioner Small voted against the motion.
