REPORTS AND RECOMMENDATIONS OF THE CITY MANAGER (continued)

12. Consideration of the Proposed City Legislative Package for the 2001 General Assembly Session. (# 11 11/18/00; #17 10/24/00)

(A copy of the City Manager's memorandum dated November 20, 2000, is on file in the office of the City Clerk and Clerk of Council, marked Exhibit No. 1 of Item No. 12; 11/28/00, and is incorporated herewith as part of this record by reference.)

Vice Mayor Cleveland explained that under Transportation Funding, the one thing that he has a problem with is number (3), that talked about the enhancement of regional transportation decision-making and planning and funding decisions that are in there.

Mayor Donley repeated, as he had at the work session and the public hearing, there is nothing in the legislation that remotely relates to creation of an authority or any kind of regional body that would have taxing authority regarding transportation, but actually tries to bring more decision-making on the local level.

WHEREUPON, upon motion by Councilman Speck, seconded by Councilwoman Pepper and carried unanimously, City Council adopted items 1 through 27 as the positions in the City's Legislative Package for the 2001 General Assembly Session (note that items 23 through 27 have been added since the meeting at which the package was introduced) with the following changes to those items: (1) Item 1. Notification Prior to the Sale of Historic Properties. Staff will continue to work on draft legislation, will work with interested parties from the historic preservation community, and return to Council at the December meeting, or if it is not ready then, to the Council's legislative subcommittee at a later date, with an amended proposal; (2) Item 14. Making the 3rd Violation of a Protective Order a Felony. Staff will incorporate this into the study that is called for on Item 13 that is a study of issues pertaining to protective orders; (3) Item 20. Revising Virginia's Hate Crimes Laws. Under a revised item, what will be called for is that the state's hate crimes laws be amended so that they cover crimes directed against persons because of their sexual orientation; and (4) Item 27. This item, which is to oppose any legislation that would limit the City's ability to adopt and implement a living wage ordinance, was added. The voting was as follows:

Speck "aye" Cleveland "aye"
Pepper "aye" Eberwein "aye"
Donley "aye" Euille "aye"
Woodson "aye"

13. Second Reading and Final Passage of an Ordinance to amend Section 10-105A)(3) of the Zoning Ordinance to revise the standards for approval of a certificate of appropriateness along Washington Street. (#30 11/18/00; #17 11/14/00) [ROLL-CALL VOTE]

(A copy of the proposed amendment to Sec. 10-105(A)(3)(a)(1)(v), revised November 14, 2000, is on file in the office of the City Clerk and Clerk of Council marked Exhibit No. 1 of Item No. 13; 11/28/00, and is incorporated herewith as part of this record by reference.

A copy of e-mails received on this item are on file in the office of the City Clerk and Clerk of Council marked collectively as Exhibit No. 2 of Item No. 13; 11/28/00, and is incorporated herewith as part of this record by reference.)

Councilwoman Eberwein announced that she [would] withdraw the proposed amendment to the ordinance, but not because she doesn't believe in it. It was a simple amendment that was very tightly drafted for two specific sites, and it would have given some flexibility on two very difficult, triangular sites and encouraged good architecture. The amendment respected and tried to actually implement the intent of the Task Force. She met with some members of the Task Force and they agreed with the design points. What seems to be driving [the opposition to the amendment is not] the merits or facts of the amendment [but rather] a fear of past actions by the local governing body or its committees and boards, which she finds sad. She thanked the Task Force for the time and effort spent in what was a difficult civic duty.

WHEREUPON, upon motion by Councilwoman Pepper, seconded by Councilwoman Eberwein and carried on a unanimous ROLL-CALL vote, City Council finally passed the Ordinance on its Second Reading and Final Passage. The voting was as follows:

Pepper "aye" Cleveland "aye"
Eberwein "aye" Euille "aye"
Donley "aye" Speck "aye"
Woodson "aye"

The ordinance finally passed reads as follows:

ORDINANCE NO. 4175

AN ORDINANCE to amend and reordain Section 10-105 (MATTERS TO BE CONSIDERED IN APPROVING CERTIFICATES AND PERMITS) under Section 10-100 (OLD AND HISTORIC ALEXANDRIA DISTRICT), of Article X (HISTORIC DISTRICTS AND BUILDINGS) of the City of Alexandria Zoning Ordinance (TA NO. 00-0009).

THE CITY COUNCIL OF ALEXANDRIA HEREBY ORDAINS:

Section 1. That Paragraph (3) of Subsection 10-105(A) of the City of Alexandria Zoning Ordinance be, and the same hereby is, amended to read as follows:

(3) Additional standards--Washington Street.

(a) In addition to the standards set forth in section 10-105(A)(2), the following standards shall apply to the construction of new buildings and structures and to the construction of additions to buildings or structures on lots fronting on both sides of Washington Street from the southern city limit line north to the northern city limit line:

(1) Construction shall be compatible with and similar to the traditional building character, particularly including mass, scale, design and style, found on Washington Street on commercial or residential buildings of historic architectural merit.

(i) Elements of design consistent with historic buildings which are found on the street shall be emphasized.

(ii) New buildings and additions to existing buildings shall not, by their style, size, location or other characteristics, detract from, overwhelm, or otherwise intrude upon historic buildings which are found on the street.

(iii) The design of new buildings and additions to existing buildings shall be complementary to historic buildings which are found on the street.

(iv) The massing of new buildings or additions to existing buildings adjacent to historic buildings which are found on the street shall closely reflect and be proportional to the massing of the adjacent historic buildings.

(v) New buildings and additions to existing buildings which are larger than historic buildings which are found on the street shall be designed to look separate and shall not give the impression of collectively being more massive than such historic buildings. This design shall be accomplished through differing historic architectural designs, facades, setbacks, roof lines and styles. Buildings should appear from the public right-of-way to have a footprint no larger than 100 feet by 80 feet. For larger projects, it is desirable that the historic pattern of mid-block alleys be preserved or replicated.

(vi) Applications for projects over 3,000 square feet, or for projects located within 66 feet of land used or zoned for residential uses, shall include a building massing study. Such study shall include all existing and proposed buildings and building additions in the six block area as follows: the block face containing the project, the block face opposite, the two adjacent block faces to the north and the two adjacent block faces to the south.

(vii) The massing and proportions of new buildings or additions to existing buildings designed in an historic style found elsewhere in along Washington Street shall be consistent with the massing and proportions of that style.

(viii) New or untried approaches to design which result in new buildings or additions to existing buildings that have no historical basis in Alexandria or that are not consistent with an historic style in scale, massing and detailing, are not appropriate.

(2) Facades of a building generally shall express the 20- to 40-foot bay width typically found on early 19th century commercial buildings characteristic of the Old and Historic Alexandria District, or the 15- to 20-foot bay width typically found on townhouses characteristic of the Old and Historic Alexandria District. Techniques to express such typical bay width shall include changes in material, articulation of the wall surfaces, changes in fenestration patterns, varying roof heights, and physical breaks, vertical as well as horizontal, within the massing.

(3) Building materials characteristic of buildings having historic architectural merit within the district shall be utilized. The texture, tone and color of such materials shall display a level of variety, quality and richness at least equal to that found abundantly in the historic setting.

(4) Construction shall reflect the traditional fenestration patterns found within the Old and Historic Alexandria District. Traditional solid-void relationships exhibited within the district's streetscapes (i.e., ratio of window and door openings to solid wall) shall be used in building facades, including first floor facades.

(5) Construction shall display a level of ornamentation, detail and use of quality materials consistent with buildings having historic architectural merit found within the district. In replicative building construction (i.e., masonry bearing wall by a veneer system), the proper thicknesses of materials shall be expressed particularly through the use of sufficient reveals around wall openings.

(b) No fewer than 45 days prior to filing an application for a certificate of appropriateness, an applicant who proposes construction which is subject to this section 10-105(A)(3), shall meet with the director to discuss the application of these standards to the proposed development; provided, that this requirement for a preapplication conference shall apply only to the construction of 10,000 or more square feet of gross building area, including but not limited to the area in any above-ground parking structure.

(c) No application for a certificate of appropriateness which is subject to this section 10-105(A)(3) shall be approved by the Old and Historic Alexandria District board of architectural review, unless it makes a written finding that the proposed construction complies with the standards in section 10-105(A)(3)(a).

(d) The director may appeal to city council a decision of the Old and Historic Alexandria District board of architectural review granting or denying an application for a certificate of appropriateness subject to this section 10-105(A)(3), which right of appeal shall be in addition to any other appeal provided by law.

(e) The standards set out in section 10-105(A)(3)(a) shall also apply in any proceedings before any other governmental or advisory board, commission or agency of the city relating to the use, development or redevelopment of land, buildings or structures within the area subject to this section 10-105(A)(3).

(f) To the extent that any other provisions of this ordinance are inconsistent with the provisions of this section 10-105(A)(3), the provisions of this section shall be controlling.

(g) The director shall adopt regulations and guidelines pertaining to the submission, review and approval or disapproval of applications subject to this section 10-105(A)(3).

(h) Any building or addition to an existing building which fails to comply with the provisions of this paragraph shall be presumed to be incompatible with the historic district and Washington Street standards, and the applicant shall have the burden of overcoming such presumption by clear and convincing evidence.

(i) The applicant for a special use permit for an increase in density above that permitted by right shall have the burden of proving that the proposed building or addition to an existing building provides clearly demonstrable benefits to the historic character of Washington Street, and, by virtue of the project = s uses, architecture and site layout and design, materially advances the pedestrian-friendly environment along Washington Street.

Section 2. That Section 10-105 of the City of Alexandria Zoning Ordinance, as amended by this ordinance, be, and the same hereby is, reordained as part of the City of Alexandria Zoning Ordinance.

Section 3. That this ordinance shall become effective upon the date and at the time of its final passage, and shall apply to all applications for land use, land development or subdivision approval provided for under the City of Alexandria Zoning Ordinance which are on such date pending before any city department, agency or board, or before city council, or on judicial review; shall apply to all such applications which may be filed after such date, and shall apply to all other facts and circumstances subject to the provisions of the City of Alexandria Zoning Ordinance, except as may be provided in Section 2 of this Ordinance and Article XII of the Zoning Ordinance.

14. Public Hearing and Consideration of Resolution Authorizing the Acquisition of Alexandria Union Station by the City of Alexandria. (#16 11/18/00; #13 11/14/00) [ROLL-CALL VOTE]

(A copy of Councilman Speck's letter dated November 27, 2000, is on file in the office of the City Clerk and Clerk of Council marked Exhibit No. 1 of Item No. 14; 11/28/00, and is incorporated herewith as part of this record by reference.

A copy of the City Manager's memorandum dated November 9, 2000, is on file in the office of the City Clerk and Clerk of Council marked Exhibit No. 2 of Item No. 14; 11/28/00, and is incorporated herewith as part of this record by reference.

A copy of e-mails received on this item is on file in the office of the City Clerk and Clerk of Council marked collectively as Exhibit No. 3 of Item No. 14; 11/28/00, and is incorporated herewith as part of this record by reference.)

The following persons participated in the public hearing on this item:

Larry Grossman, 1123 Powhatan Street, spoke in support of the acquisition;

Katy Cannady, 20 East Oak Street, spoke to the prospect of a visitors center at this site and reported that last April the Rosemont Citizens Association voted to oppose building a visitors center at Union Station;

Marguerite Lang, 14 West Rosemont Avenue, stated that accepting the property is the right thing to do, but she recommended that Council hold a public hearing to ascertain the feeling of the neighborhood about having a visitors center at the Union Station site;

Alan N. Rudd, 2121 Jamieson Avenue, Unit 1801, representing the Carlyle Eisenhower Civic Association, believes that the acquisition of this site will be beneficial to the City, but prior to contracting with a consultant for a study that the qualifications of the consultant should be publicized along with the scope and cost of the effort and that be made available for public comment; and

Lois Kelso Hunt, 310 Park Road, on behalf of the Taylor Run Civic Association, reported that it voted at its annual meeting to oppose the idea for a visitors center at Union Station, and there needs to be a public hearing for people to speak to the advisability of having anything at the Union Station site.

Mayor Donley suggested a public hearing on whether to have a study. Then if Council wants to go forward with a study and having a public hearing on the study, Council could also have a work session with the City Manager to work on the scope and incorporate public input into the process of the study rather than just an objective look for a consultant. After the study was completed, Council would have a public hearing.

Councilman Speck recommended that Council have a public hearing in which Council invites the public to suggest anything that they think should be included in the study so that it is incorporated in the design study, but not to rule anything out -- range of sites, issues that we think are important, traffic considerations, shuttle systems or anything else -- and that will be incorporated into an RFP.

The City Manager will come back to Council, probably in January or February, with a recommendation, perhaps worded the way Councilman Speck talked about because it is a little bit more open-ended, and will schedule a public hearing to discuss potential sites and the scope of a tourist center so that Council can get some input.

Councilwoman Eberwein would like the scope of the study to include some [other potential] uses for the Union Station site that might be valuable to the City.

Councilwoman Pepper confirmed her understanding that the RFP will not go out before Council has had the public hearing.

WHEREUPON, upon motion by Councilman Speck, seconded by Councilwoman Pepper and carried on a unanimous ROLL-CALL vote, City Council concluded the public hearing and adopted the resolution which: (a) approved the acquisition of the Union Station property, (b) approved, in substantially final form, the contract for the acquisition, and (c) authorized the City Manager to execute the contract and any additional documents that are necessary to complete the transaction. The voting was as follows:

Speck "aye" Cleveland "aye"
Pepper "aye" Eberwein "aye"
Donley "aye" Euille "aye"
Woodson "aye"

The resolution reads as follows:

RESOLUTION NO. 1986

The voting was as follows:

Pepper "aye" Cleveland "aye"
Euille "aye" Eberwein "aye"
Donley "aye" Speck "aye"
Woodson "aye"

ORAL PRESENTATIONS BY MEMBERS OF CITY COUNCIL

(a) Councilwoman Pepper explained that she is a member of the Eisenhower Partnership Planning and Transportation Subcommittee and they have been interested in having coordinated signage up and down Eisenhower Avenue. City Council approved a one-time gift of $10,000 in fiscal year 2001 to help support this effort, but the private sector is really going to be financing this. These are directional signs that would possibly be monument signs or signs on the public right-of-way and will require a text amendment. Without Objection, this process will begin, and it will be docketed for the next legislative meeting.

(A copy of Councilwoman Pepper's memorandum dated November 27, 2000, is on file in the office of the City Clerk and Clerk of Council and marked Exhibit No. 1 of Oral (a); 11/28/00, and is incorporated herewith as part of this record by reference.)

(b) Councilwoman Pepper pointed out that Dr. Hawe, a veterinarian with the Alexandria Animal Hospital, died recently at age 49. He was very active in the animal welfare community and had done a great deal to see that the new shelter was put in place. He is very much going to be missed.

(c) Councilwoman Pepper congratulated Councilman Euille, who over the weekend received the Rose Award from the Tall Cedars of Lebanon, a Masonic body in Alexandria. The Rose Award is for recognition of service excellence, and Bill Euille has given so much of himself, not just the money, but the commitment to and involvement in the community.

(d) Councilwoman Woodson remarked that she had expressed an interest in September or October in talking to young people at T.C. Williams about what they want to do. She thanked Melissa Luby who arranged this for her. She spoke to a group of young people in Mr. Jolstead's band class. They were not shy with ideas, and they had terrific ideas. She has a list of 24 suggestions; one suggestion that she has followed up on has to do with a teen center called the Old Fire House in McLean which provides a lot of the things that the young people asked for. It is funded by the taxpayers in Fairfax County under a separate taxing designation. She is going to meet with them and tour the place to get some ideas and will report back to Council. She thanked the kids for sharing with her. She shared one suggestion, "The City has to show some interest to show that it's serious about doing something for teens, and they don't want any lip service."

(e) Councilwoman Woodson reported that she met with the Hotel Association last week and initiated a meeting with T.C. Williams to create an awareness of hospitality careers because the Hotel Association complained that there didn't seem to be much interest in that but yet they had not really pursued anything at the school level. They did contact the T.C. Williams principal, and they were going to be moving in that direction.

(f) Vice Mayor Cleveland was very happy to report that at the tree lighting ceremony he ran into Commander Kirk S. Lippold of the U.S.S. Cole, the ship that was savagely bombed in Yemen. Commander Cole is back in the City of Alexandria. Vice Mayor Cleveland knows him personally and he lives in his building. Vice Mayor Cleveland commended Commander Cole for what he did saved a lot more lives by closing the bulkheads; otherwise, that ship would have sunk.

(g) Councilman Speck announced an effort in Del Ray to do some fund-raising to send a burned child to the Mid-Atlantic Burn Camp. Over the next few days there will be specially marked boxes on Mt. Vernon Avenue for the deposit of aluminum cans. On Saturday, December 9, if you fill your gas tank at Yates Automotive and then get your car washed at Yates Car Wash, both of those businesses will donate a portion of their sales on that day to fund-raising for the program. On December 11, the Del Ray Civic Association, at 7:30 p.m. at the Mt. Vernon Recreation Center, will honor Pat Walker, the Code Enforcement/Fire Department liaison for Del Ray, to present to her the proceeds collected in recognition of her contributions as well as raising money for the Mid-Atlantic Burn Camp. Councilman Speck will have copies of the flyer distributed to Council.

(A copy of the flyer is on file in the office of the City Clerk and Clerk of Council, marked Exhibit No. 1 of Oral (g); 11/28/00, and is incorporated herewith as part of this record by reference.)

(h) Councilman Speck requested an update on the King Street underpass.

The City Manager reported that they have an estimate of the costs of doing the painting, have transmitted those costs to CSX and are waiting for some reply. If the response comes back as it has in the past, then it is up to the Congressional level. Councilman Speck inquired if it is lead-based paint, what level of a health problem does that pose for people either walking or driving routinely under it and can that issue create a greater level of urgency for resolving this?

T&ES Director Baier responded that the biggest issue for lead-based paint is its becoming friable and being ingested. T&ES and the Health Department have looked at the peeling there and it is not of concern because it is not friable.

New Business Item No. 2. City Manager Sunderland introduced the new Planning and Zoning Director Eileen Fogarty and welcomed her to the City.
