TO: HRPDC/HRTPO Boards BY: Robert Crum, Executive Director RE: Executive Director’s Report – July 2020 On June 30, the HRPDC staff submitted a GO Virginia Grant Application requesting funding to advance the preparedness level of regional economic development sites. This application was prepared by HRPDC staff in coordination with the Hampton Roads Alliance and local economic development departments. On June 29, HRPDC Senior Regional Planner Matt Smith attended an event in Virginia Beach where Governor Northam ceremonially signed landmark offshore wind legislation. Following this event, Mr. Smith participated in a tour of the first two offshore wind turbines located 27 miles off the coast of Virginia. An update on offshore wind development efforts and the economic opportunities they present for the Hampton Roads region will be presented at the July 16 Commission meeting.

The HRPDC continues to maintain the COVID-19 dashboard to provide data, information, maps, and resources concerning the COVID-19 pandemic impact in the Hampton Roads region. This website can be accessed at https://hrcovid19-hrpdc-gis.hub.argis.com. The Southside Network Authority (the Authority) selected Mr. Steven DeBerry to serve as its Interim Executive Director. The Southside Network Authority was created by the cities of Chesapeake, Norfolk, Portsmouth, Suffolk, and Virginia Beach to build and operate a high-speed internet fiber ring. This initiative will continue to develop Hampton Roads as a connected 21st-century community and international gateway. The fiber ring is designed to attract additional internet service providers who will enable increased competition, faster speeds, and lower-cost services to the region. This will in turn promote economic growth, support resiliency and cybersecurity, enhance higher education, and reduce the digital divide. Future phases of this project will connect to the Peninsula and the western portion of the Hampton Roads region. Mr. DeBerry

was most recently the City of Norfolk’s Chief Information Officer and was recently named to Government Technology Magazine’s 2020 List of “Top 25 Doers, Dreamers and Drivers”. Mr. DeBerry will be responsible for coordinating the initial efforts of the Southside Network Authority including oversight of the design, construction, and operations of the planned fiber ring project. The HRPDC Executive Director and staff continue to provide staff support to the Authority in the areas of agenda/minutes preparation, management of electronic meetings, financial services, human resource management, and administrative support. A Memorandum of Understanding is being developed between the HRPDC and the Authority which will provide for the HRPDC to be reimbursed for these expenses. The Southside Network Authority held a series of five meetings in late June to interview a shortlist of firms for the final design work for the Southside Fiber Ring. The Executive Director provided presentations to the following community groups on the work of the HRPDC and HRTPO during the past month:

• Chesapeake Economic Development Advisory Committee – June 12 • Urban Land Institute – June 24 • Federal Reserve Roundtable – July 7

The Executive Director participated in the June 17 meeting of the Hampton Roads Maritime Collaborative for Growth and Innovation. The HRPDC staff continues to participate in meetings of the Offshore Wind Executive Committee. The Executive Director continues to convene regular conference calls of the region’s 18 Chief Administrative Officers (CAOs) to share information and discuss response strategies to the COVID-19 pandemic. All items included on these calls are related to the COVID-19 State of Emergency. The CAO Committee is expected to resume in-person meetings beginning August 5. During the reconvened session of the General Assembly in April, the following provision was incorporated into the regional transit funding legislation:

That the Hampton Roads Transportation Planning Organization shall establish a regional transit advisory panel composed of representatives of major business and industry groups, employers, shopping destinations, institutions of higher education, military installations, hospitals and health care centers, public transit entities, and any other groups identified as necessary to provide ongoing advice to the regional planning process required pursuant to § 33.2-286 of the Code of

The Motion Carried with 30 votes in favor, none against, and no abstentions. Fiscal Year 2021 Budget Mr. Robert Crum, HRPDC/HRTPO Executive Director, reported that the Joint HRPDC/HRTPO Personnel and Budget (P&B) Committee met electronically via conference call on May 7, 2020 to review the proposed FY 2021 HRPDC/HRTPO Budget. The Personnel and Budget Committee took the following action:

“The HRPDC/HRTPO Personnel and Budget Committee recommends approval of the FY21 Budget by the HRPDC and HRTPO Boards, with the condition that the budget be revisited by both Boards at their October 15, 2020 meetings.”

This approach was in response to the COVID-19 pandemic and crisis. Preparing a 12-month budget is difficult due to the challenges for all levels of government. Traditionally relied upon revenues at the local, state, and federal levels may be reconsidered for other purposes. Mr. Crum stated that while the presented proposed budget is for a full year, the P&B Committee recommends revisiting the budget in October. The expectation is for a better understanding of the revenue outlook as well as an anticipated timeline of an economic rebound.

Attachment 7A



Mr. Crum referenced an enclosed memorandum summarizing the proposed FY 2021 Budget. He described the budget approach as cautious and stated that in many aspects, it mirrors the budget approach proposed by the region’s local governments. He reported locality membership contributions remain at the reduced $0.80 per capita rate approved in response to the recession; no merit or cost of living increases included for staff; and significant reductions in professional development, travel, furniture, computers and software, outside printing, and meeting expenses. He noted a slight 0.67% increase in personnel costs due to the increase in VRS retirement and health insurance as well as a $1.2 million increase in pass-through funds. While the overall budget increased by 24.7%, operating expenses significantly decreased by $187,398 from FY 2020 and is the lowest proposed operating budget since FY 2015. In conclusion, Mr. Crum listed future budget considerations not included in the proposed budget such as building and grounds maintenance, competitive staff wages, addressing salary compression, pension liabilities, an agency vehicle, and information technology needs. Motion: Commissioner John Rowe Moved to approve the FY 2021 Budget as

presented with the condition that the budget be revisited at the October 15, 2020 Annual Meeting; seconded by Commissioner Barry Cheatham.

HRPDC/HRTPO Public Comment ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Name: Mark Geduldig-Yatrofsky

Date: May 20, 2020

Subject: CAO Meeting

Comment:

I write to suggest that the region should stick its toe in the virtual meeting realm with the formerly monthly CAO meeting. As that body communicates rather than legislates, staying within the FOIA bounds delineated in Attorney General Herring's Sullivan Opinion (see https://oag.state.va.us/files/Opinions/2020/Sullivan-Opinion-Request.pdf) should be relatively easily achievable. My experiences during the "lock down" with both the Zoom and its video conferencing platforms have been highly satisfactory, but whatever vehicle you might select, I think that reestablishing a trans-regional networking protocol would be beneficial. Best regards.

HRPDC/HRTPO Response: (via e-mail) Mr. Geduldig-Yatrofsky:

It’s good to hear from you, I hope you are doing well and staying safe and healthy during these

challenging times.

I am writing to thank you for your public comment suggesting that the Chief Administrative Officers (CAO)

Committee restart their regular monthly meetings. I agree and believe this is a great suggestion.

During this COVID-19 pandemic, we have been regularly connecting the CAOs to discuss a coordinated

regional response to this pandemic – but these calls have been limited to the specific topic of our

localities’ operational response to this State of Emergency. As you note, while the CAO Committee

focuses on communication rather than legislative matters, reconvening the monthly CAO meetings in a

virtual meeting format will help with the regional exchange of information on a broad range of issues.

I will be communicating your request to the chair and vice-chair of our CAO Committee and will keep you

posted as we re-establish these meetings in an electronic remote format. I expect we will keep these

meetings on their regular schedule (1st Wednesday of each month).

Thanks again for your comment, I always appreciate your attendance and input at our regular CAO

Committee meetings. I look forward to restarting these meetings as soon as practical.

Bob

ECONOMIC IMPACT

1. Identify the project goals, approach, and outcomes, and how the project relates to the region’s Economic Growth and Diversification Plan and the goals of GO Virginia. ATTACHMENTS: A 1-2-page Executive Summary should be uploaded with the application.

The proposed project will leverage funds to complete due diligence work recommended by earlier studies, including the Enhanced Site Characterization project recently performed by the Virginia Economic Development Partnership (VEDP), for three sites in Region 5, helping to accelerate the development of these sites to Tier 4. This effort will assist in promoting the availability of shovel-ready sites to prospective businesses, which would in turn help to create higher paying jobs in Hampton Roads.

Major job-creating investments are won because of an available pipeline of ready sites. In the face of the current economic climate and future aspirations, being site-ready is paramount to winning the attention of companies who would invest in Hampton Roads. Site readiness allows the region to keep up with the “speed of business” and outpace project competition. Site readiness also means more certainty. Fewer unknowns about the state of a site help to maximize investment in the process of locating a facility, make it easier to control the budget from the company’s perspective, and allow the region to better prepare to offer development assistance and incentives. Site readiness means faster delivery times. To minimize costs, clients want to deliver a facility as soon as possible. Time is not always available for the process of developing a potential site after a company has expressed interest, leaving the project vulnerable to competition. Finally, site readiness means having a competitive edge. Having shovel-ready sites, or the availability of quality sites that can be shovel-ready within 12-18 months, gives companies more incentive to invest in our region over another, which may be outside of the Commonwealth.

This initiative directly addresses GO Virginia’s Region 5 Growth & Diversification Plan recommendations to create an environment to spur establishment creation, attract out of region firms, provide opportunities for expansion of existing firms and increase diversification in the private sector. By increasing the number of shovel-ready business sites aiding to attract new business and development to the region, the project addresses the first and second goals of creating a coordinated regional capacity for innovation and increasing job creation through expanding and attracting out-of-region firms in the region’s key cluster areas. Working towards these goals of attracting and expanding industry and jobs in Region 5 will help to achieve the third goal of closing skills, credentialing and degree gaps in the workforce as new talent becomes attracted to the region due to expanded opportunities in new and exciting industries. This initiative is also aligned with the priority business sectors identified by the Hampton Roads Alliance: Advanced Manufacturing, Business and Shared Services, Distribution and Logistics, Food and Beverage Processing, and Information Technology.

According to the Virginia Economic Development Partnership (VEDP), “absences of developable sites cost Virginia at least 47 projects and $6.5 billion in capital investment in the last 5 years.” Per VEDP, with at least nine large projects included, this translates to an average opportunity cost of 1,800 jobs and $1.2 billion per lost project. The Hampton Roads Economic Development Sites Readiness project, if funded, will elevate three sites to Tier 4 status across three localities in Region 5, allowing for a more economically agile region that can attract business quickly. The ability to reach this fourth Growth & Diversification Plan goal is especially important today as the region begins to recover from the economic impacts of COVID-19. Readying our sites now will allow the region to be poised for immediate investment when businesses are able to do so. Advancing the readiness of economic development sites will also leverage and complement a number of related initiatives planned or underway in the Hampton Roads region:

• $5 Billion Investment in Transportation Infrastructure

• Port of Virginia Infrastructure Projects

• Development of Regional Broadband Connectivity Ring

• Regional Branding Initiative

• Offshore Wind Supply Chain Opportunities

• Hampton Roads Alliance Restructuring

• Creation of Eastern Virginia Regional Industrial Facility Authority

• Global Connectivity-Subsea Cables/Data Centers 2. Provide a detailed overview of the proposed project and activities included in the

project budget. If the full project scope goes beyond the reflected budget, please provide a breakdown of the current and later phases of project activities.

Staff of the Hampton Roads Planning District Commission and the Hampton Roads Alliance worked in collaboration with local economic development staff in GOVA Region 5, the Virginia Economic Development Partnership, the Department of Housing and Community Development, Reinvent Hampton Roads and the Greater Williamsburg Partnership to evaluate candidate sites in Region 5 and to identify the sites submitted in this GOVA grant application. Criteria for site evaluation and prioritization included:

• Site developability scores that are at or above Region 5 and/or State-wide medians.

• Business sector suitability rankings that are at or above Region 5 and/or State-wide medians for one or more business sectors.

• Relatively low costs to advance the most competitive sites to Tier 3 and Tier 4.

• High-degree of public control of the site and significant recent local public investments in site improvements.

This GOVA grant application is envisioned as a first step in advancing site readiness in Hampton Roads. Staff of HRPDC and the regional economic development organizations will continue to

Attachment 14

work with local and State partners to bring forward the most competitive sites for future funding rounds to include small sites and privately-owned sites. The proposed project will leverage funds to complete due diligence work on three sites throughout Region 5, with further plans to elevate the sites to Tier 4. All three sites are currently rated at Tier 2, in accordance with the Virginia Business Ready Sites Program. Attached to this grant application are the site assessments of each site funding is requested for from GO Virginia in this application, with the list of recommended tasks required to advance the entire property to Tier 3 or 4 and their associated costs. Also attached to this application in Appendix 1 are specific budgets for each site which includes detailed information about each due diligence activity that needs to be completed and its associated cost, each activity for elevation to Tier 4 and its cost, as well as all items that have already been completed and their costs, to count towards matching funds. GO Virginia funds will be used for the next phase of due diligence site work including, but not limited to (each of the three sites has different requirements to complete due diligence):

1. Wetlands delineation with Army Corps of Engineers approval 2. Geotechnical borings and preliminary evaluation report 3. Boundary survey with easements and encumbrances identified (ALTA preferred) 4. Topographical survey (1-foot contours) 5. Cultural resources review 6. Threatened and endangered species review 7. Phase One Environmental Site Assessment 8. Floodplain study 9. Geological/karst evaluation 10. Traffic impact analysis 11. Master plan and/or preliminary engineering report quantifying costs and timeline to

provide required infrastructure upgrades to the site GO Virginia funds will also be used for elevating sites to Tier 4 with the following activities including, but not limited to (each of the three sites has different requirements to elevate to Tiers 3 or 4):

1. Engineer’s review and certification of work completed for Tier 4 with confirmation infrastructure can be completed within 12 months

2. All infrastructure permitting issues identified and quantified Each individual site has its own budget attached in Appendix 1, for which there is at least a 50% match from the locality for what is requested from GO Virginia. Below is the overall budget for the Hampton Roads Economic Development Sites Readiness project with all three sites totaled.

Cost/Activity Category DHCD Request Other Funding Total

Administrative Costs (5%) $60,345 - $60,345.00

Site Work to Achieve Tier 4 $1,206,900 $7,871,185.51 $9,078,085.51

Total $1,267,245.00 $7,871,185.51 $9,138,430.51 The category “DHCD Request” consists of the sum of cost estimates for each site to elevate to Tier 4 to prepare the site to be considered shovel-ready. The category “Other Funding” consists of the sum of all money that has already been spent by the localities, money that is currently being spent, or money that has been approved in the localities upcoming year’s budget, as matching funds. The cost estimates for elevation to Tier 4 included in the budget for this project are currently best estimates given the VEDP site overview scorecard summary order of magnitude cost estimates to Tier 4. The estimates provided in the VEDP scorecard summaries have a large range, either $50K - $250K or $250K - $1M. In order to provide GO Virginia with as specific a request as possible, a professional engineer has been engaged to prepare detailed cost estimates for each site. HRPDC will provide GO Virginia with the updated numbers very shortly, as they are almost complete and not likely to change drastically from the current budget within this application.

3. Describe the project timeline and the specific project milestones that will be utilized

to track project progress and fund disbursement. Address the project administrators’ ability to meet these milestones and to take remedial actions in the event they are not achieved. ATTACHMENTS: Project Milestones including a proposed Drawdown Schedule should be uploaded with the application.

This project entails completing the due diligence work and other work necessary to move each of the three sites throughout the region from Tier 2 to Tier 4. It is anticipated that much of the work on this project will be initiated as soon as the grant is approved. This effort will be led by one or more consultants selected to complete the due diligence and other items as necessary, with consultants being selected based on their previous knowledge of the site and associated projects.

4. Provide a detailed description of the performance metrics that will be used to

quantify success, both quantitative and qualitative, and how the metrics were developed. Describe the Return on Investment (ROI) methodology and calculated ROI and the timeline for achieving the expected ROI. Include an explanation and source of any data used as the basis for ROI and outcome projections. ATTACHMENTS: Performance Measures and ROI Calculations should be uploaded with the application.

The Hampton Roads Economic Development Sites Readiness project is an enhanced capacity building project and the metrics may reflect long-term benchmarks associated with later phases involving siting commercial and/or industrial businesses. Ultimate success will in part be quantified by the number of projects and prospects driven to this site following the completion of the due diligence and other development work undertaken to elevate these three sites across the region to Tier 4. This grant request and the purpose of the funds will accelerate the timing in which we introduce three new Tier 4 ready sites to the market. As site development work is typically a multi-year process that requires long-term perspective, this project is imperative to help advance the four important goals of Region 5’s

Attachment 14

Economic Growth and Diversification Plan, as mentioned in the response to question one of this application. Collaborating across several regional and state organizations, along with several localities in order to understand all potential available sites and select three to include in this application is considered an early sign of success, showcasing both the importance of regional collaboration as well as foreshadowing potential success for future site development. Finally, providing additional business ready sites in Hampton Roads will make our region, and the Commonwealth, more attractive to potential companies and increase our recognition in the business and site selection community. Corporations often eliminate cities and even states due to a lack of available land without ever reviewing their other assets; if Hampton Roads and Virginia as a whole can shore up this shortcoming, we will be perceived as an even better place to do business.

ROI CALCULATIONS The GO Virginia per capita return on investment calculator template was used to calculate the ROI for each participating site in this project application. The 3-year and 5-year site specific calculations are included in Appendix 3 of this application and are summarized below for the project overall.

Site Name GO Virginia Request

3-year Revenue Generated

5-year ROI Revenue Generated

Tech Center Research $50,000.00 $4,469,833.00 $11,398,075.00

Innovation Park $1,026,900.00 $5,392,660.00 $13,689,060.00

Shirley T. Holland (44-acre portion) $130,000.00 $2,920,575.00 $5,354,388.00

Total $1,206,900.00 $12,783,068.00 $30,441,523.00

A note on assumptions used to calculate ROI: Years 1-5 direct jobs created were estimated by discussions with each participating locality regarding plans for development as well as by reviewing the site master plans and completing calculations with intended square footage and industry. Average annual salaries were estimated by discussions with each participating locality regarding the type of industry likely to be developed and cross-referencing posted salaries in the same location for similar industries. These calculations are intended to be estimates. As summarized in the above table, over 3-5 years after development of each site, it is estimated that the state could generate between $12 - $30 million total in state revenue from state income and sales tax from these sites combined.

REGIONAL COLLABORATION 5. Describe the service area of the project. Identify localities participating in the

project (financially or administratively) as well as those localities that are served by the project. ATTACHMENTS: Relevant letters of commitment (including in-kind contribution forms) or support from localities or local government entities should be uploaded with the application.

Attachment 14

a. What portion of the region’s population is served by the project? How was this figure calculated? b. Does the application request a waiver of the local match requirement? ($ 50,000 or 20% provided by participating localities, whichever is greater). c. Are there localities or other GO Virginia regions (including interstate collaborations) that are outside the applying region that are participating in the project? If so, describe the nature of the collaboration and the anticipated impact.

The service area of the project is the Hampton Roads region, at three sites throughout the region in the localities of Isle of Wight, Newport News, and Virginia Beach. Attached to this application are letters of support from each participating locality, in addition to letters from the Hampton Roads Planning District Commission and the Hampton Roads Alliance.

According to data from the US Census Bureau, 45% of the population works outside their county of residence in the Hampton Roads MSA, attesting that investing in a project in one locality has a high potential to greatly benefit surrounding localities. While this proposal includes sites in only three localities, between each of the three sites, roughly 45% of the region is within a 30-minute drive, 60% is within a 45-minute drive, and 75% of the region is within a 60-minute drive. Once these sites are shovel ready and eventually developed, the benefits of new industries and high-paying jobs will extend throughout the region. SERVICE AREA SPECIFICS – SITE LOCATIONS + GENERAL INFORMATION City of Virginia Beach – Innovation Park

The Innovation Park site is located in the City of Virginia Beach, west and south of Princess Anne Road, north of Tournament Drive, south of Landstown Centre Way, and east of Landstown Road and the Sports complex. The site consists of seven parcels totaling 147 acres of land and owned by the City of Virginia Beach Development Authority (VBDA). The current zoning is Light Industrial District, I-1. As soon as the infrastructure work and road construction work for phase 1 neared completion, the VBDA started receiving Letters of Intent to purchase the three site ready parcels in phase 1. Currently, the VBDA had executed a Purchase Agreement with YCH, LLC. on 14 acres (south of Princess Anne and east of new Road) and is in the process of finalizing two Purchase Agreements: • Project Piano: 19.5 acres east of new Road • Asturian Construction: 5.7 acres south of Princess Anne and east of Tournament Drive All three developments are existing Virginia Beach businesses that are expanding and will make the Innovation Park their corporate headquarters.

City of Newport News – Tech Center Corporate Research Center

corner of Jefferson Avenue and Oyster Point Road. The initial commercial development, Marketplace at Tech Center, is an urban marketplace with walkable streets adjacent to residential apartments. The approved Master Plan for the remaining Tech Center development includes 10 new buildings that will provide 842,662 square feet of office space. Construction will occur in two phases, with Phase 1 to include five (5) buildings totaling 422,662 square feet of office completed by 2024. Phase 2 will be further divided into two subphases, Phase IIA and Phase IIB. In Phase IIA building 9 will be constructed to include approximately 80,000 square feet of office building. Phase IIB will add the remaining 4 buildings: 6, 7, 8, and 10 to account for approximately 340,000 square feet of office building for a total of 420,000 square feet in Phase 2. Full build-out is anticipated to occur by 2028.

Isle of Wight County – Shirley T. Holland Intermodal Park – Phase II (44-acre portion)

Strategically located for port-related businesses, the County-owned 1,200-acre Shirley T. Holland Intermodal Park provides affordable sites close to The Port of Virginia. Design and engineering work are underway to create a 44-acre, permit-ready site within Phase II that can accommodate up to a 300,000 square-foot building. Businesses in the park can easily access the Port using U.S. Route 460 or U.S. Route 58 or by rail on the adjacent Norfolk Southern Heartland Corridor. The park is a “Magnet Site” within Foreign Trade Zone #20 and Phases II and III are a designated Virginia Enterprise Zone, which makes businesses eligible for federal, state and local incentive programs. The Port of Virginia also offers the Economic and Infrastructure Development Zone Grant Program for Port users. The park is home to three nationally recognized companies: Keurig Dr Pepper, Safco Products Company and Cost Plus World Market, a subsidiary of Bed, Bath & Beyond, which together employ over 700 people. Future plans could add an additional 83 acres of land to Phase I of the park near Cost Plus World Market.

6. Identify cost efficiencies, repurposing of existing funds, leveraging of existing assets,

or other evidence of collaboration that can be demonstrated as a result of the project.

Staff of the HRPDC and the Hampton Roads Alliance have been working in collaboration with a number of local, regional and State partners to identify the most competitive and cost effective sites in Region 5 to recommend for additional investment to promote site readiness. Only sites that have high “Developability” and “Sector Suitability” scores as per the VEDP Enhanced Sites Characterization program were chosen, which inherently signifies efficiencies by investing in the sites that are most likely to be elevated to Tier 4 with immediate and modest investments. All the sites chosen are already characterized at Tier 2, with significant investment already having been made to get the sites to that level and further investments in due diligence items making them well on their way toward Tier 3 certification.

Attachment 14

10

Funding this GO Virginia grant request will help the City of Virginia Beach, the City of Newport News, and Isle of Wight County leverage money already spent on due diligence items in the past 24 months in order to complete the necessary work to gain Tier 3/4 certification. This funding will allow the localities to utilize existing relationships with various contractors who are familiar with and understand these sites, allowing for swift completion and eventual elevation in characterization rating of the sites. Regional collaboration has been, and will continue to be, key to the success of this project. The positioning of the Economic Development Sites Readiness project is designed to ensure that the Hampton Roads region can capitalize on new industries to help diversify its economy away from overdependence on defense assets and a damaged hospitality and retail industry that will take a significant amount of time to recover from the COVID crisis. This effort is currently being supported by a variety of agencies, including the Hampton Roads Planning District Commission, the Hampton Roads Alliance, local Economic Development Departments, and state entities including the Virginia Economic Development Partnership. This high level of collaboration will continue into the implementation phase of this project and with future project phases to improve regional site readiness. In addition to leveraging existing partnerships, funding, and assets, this project is crucial as the region attempts to leverage future partnerships, funding, and assets. For example, the Hampton Roads region has been working diligently on attracting a new supply chain and industry to the area – Offshore Wind. A new offshore wind farm is currently being constructed off the coast of Virginia Beach, and both the Port of Virginia and Governor Northam have made announcements and commitments allocating funding towards advancing the goal of making Hampton Roads a regional hub for this exciting emerging industry. As this industry begins to come online, investors will likely begin looking for sites to establish a supply chain on the East Coast of the United States, it is no longer an option to respond to these advancements once they arrive and are fully established. In order to attract and compete for the supply chain opportunities, the region needs shovel-ready sites as soon as possible. This brand-new (to the US), high-paying, attractive, and diverse industry is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity and strides must be taken immediately in order to successfully leverage Region 5’s potential. Having attractive, business ready sites is a great first step.

7. Discuss existing grant requests or programs with similar goals and indicate how the proposed project is not duplicative of, but additive to, other efforts to support economic diversification and the creation of higher- paying jobs. Have existing efforts been successful and sustainable?

To our knowledge, there are currently no existing grant requests or programs with similar goals of advancing these three sites from Tier 2 to Tier 4, so this project is not duplicative of other efforts to support economic diversification in the region. As noted in the Economic Impact section, improving site readiness in Hampton Roads will leverage and complement other initiatives in the region that will support economic diversification and job creation. These

Attachment 14

11

initiatives include:

• Port of Virginia Infrastructure Improvement Projects

• Development of Regional Broadband Connectivity Ring

• Offshore Wind Supply Chain Opportunities

• Creation of Eastern Virginia Regional Infrastructure and Facility Authority

• Realignment and expanded mission of the Hampton Roads Alliance

• Global Connectivity-Subsea Cables/Data Centers

PROJECT READINESS

8. Describe all partner organizations involved with the implementation of the project, including the entity’s role, financial or in-kind commitment, and capacity to successfully execute their duties as they relate to the project. These may include but are not limited to school divisions, community colleges, public and private institutions of higher education, economic and workforce development entities, local governments, regional organizations, planning district commissions, nonprofit organizations, and private-sector entities.

1. Hampton Roads Planning District Commission

HRPDC is serving as the applicant organization for this project proposal, and has served as a coordinator throughout the process of sharing VEDP’s site characterization work with the localities and selecting which sites to include in this first round request of GO Virginia funding for site readiness. HRPDC will continue to be involved with administrative responsibilities as the proposal moves forward to next stages.

2. Hampton Roads Alliance The Alliance has been working, and will continue to do so, closely with HRPDC on the regional coordination and collaboration between all localities with available sites for economic development, as well as those participating in this proposal. The Alliance will work alongside HRPDC on continued administrative responsibilities as the proposal moves forward. They will serve as the primary regional marketing entity for these three sites and ensure that they are submitted to VEDP, site selection consultants, and any appropriate existing or prospective businesses once they have been elevated to Tier 4 status.

3. City of Virginia Beach The City of Virginia Beach is one of the participants in the proposal and serves as the owner, through the Virginia Beach Development Authority, of the Innovation Park. Currently at Tier 2, once funding is acquired, the city will work directly with the chosen contractor to complete the due diligence work needed to elevate the Innovation Park to Tier 4.

4. Isle of Wight County Isle of Wight County is one of the participants in the proposal, with one public site

Attachment 14

12

for consideration currently at Tier 2, moving towards Tier 4, called Shirley T. Holland Intermodal Park – Phase II (44-acre portion). Once funding is acquired, the county will work directly with the chosen contractor to complete the due diligence work and elevate the site to Tier 4.

5. City of Newport News The City of Newport News is one of the participants in the proposal, with one public site for consideration currently at Tier 2, moving towards Tier 4, called Tech Center Corporate Research Center. Once funding is acquired, the city will work directly with the chosen contractor to complete the due diligence work and elevate the site to Tier 4.

9. Discuss any major barriers to successful implementation and other associated risks

along with a plan to overcome them. How will the project administrator address these barriers?

One potential barrier to successful implementation of this program will be uncertainty surrounding the ability to meet with consultants in person and their ability to begin in-person site development work, as well as potential future investors. Prior to COVID-19, economic development activities were largely undertaken in person. This primarily was to help foster relationships between prospective businesses and community and regional partners. Additionally, companies generally benefit from visiting and experiencing a community in which they are considering making an investment. As the country continues to navigate the logistics of the pandemic, innovations in communication are becoming widespread as workers become more comfortable with remote meetings. Building inspections and other meetings are being completed over videoconference, paving a pathway for remote prospect visits to these sites once they are shovel-ready. The Hampton Roads Alliance is even conducting initial meetings with prospective companies via teleconferencing platforms. Thus, there is potential that increasing the capacity for effective remote engagement could increase interest from prospects who may not have considered Region 5 for investment due to inability to travel. The COVID-19 pandemic introduces a second potential barrier to successful implementation in the form of an economic downturn and associated impacts being felt at all levels of government. While the future economic impact of COVID-19 is still not yet fully known or understood, reductions in state and local revenues have been reported due to business closures during April and May of 2020. As the pandemic continues and recovery begins, there is likely to be uncertainty regarding expenditures at the state and local level, but in conjunction with this, it has never been more important to prepare our region for recovery as soon as possible. We plan to overcome this barrier by communicating closely with DHCD while utilizing previous expenditures on each site for due diligence work that has been completed in the past 24 months as matching funds for this grant proposal. Economic resilience is imperative for regional recovery to a recession, and elevating these sites for investment will put Region 5 in the best possible position for a swift economic recovery.

10. Discuss how the regional council and project developers have consulted with subject

Attachment 14

13

matter experts regarding the efficacy and viability of the proposal. Provide an overview of the feedback from the subject matter experts, and how their feedback validated the approach and methodology for the project.

Staff of the Hampton Roads Planning District Commission and the Hampton Roads Alliance have consulted subject matter experts at local and regional economic development agencies as well as the Virginia Economic Development Partnership and the Department of Housing and Community Development. Project sponsors have engaged economic and engineering consultants with extensive experience in economic development, site selection and site development. Private sector experts that have participated on project committees and focus groups include representatives from private and public utility providers, the Port of Virginia, professional engineers, as well as members of the Hampton Roads real estate community with extensive experience in the target industry sectors. The approach used to evaluate and recommend sites for grant funding closely follows the data-driven and investor focused process developed by VEDP in connection with the State-wide site enhancement project. Site evaluation and selection criteria included:

• Site developability scores that are at or above Region 5 and/or State-wide medians. • Business sector suitability rankings that are at or above Region 5/and or State-wide

medians for one or more business sectors. • Relatively low costs to advance the most competitive sites to Tier 3 and Tier 4. • High degree of public control of the site and significant recent local public investments

in site improvements.

11. Discuss how the regional council and project developers have consulted with local government entities regarding the strategy and implementation of the project.

The HRPDC represents 17 local governments and over 1.7 million residents in southeastern Virginia. The HRPDC has a 47 member board made up of local elected officials and the Chief Administrative Officers of its 17 member jurisdictions. The Business Ready Sites project has been closely coordinated with local elected officials, Chief Administrative Officers and local Economic Development Directors since the May 2017 inception of the program. Coordination with local government officials has been critical to the success of this effort and will continue to occur in future phases. The regional economic development organizations in Hampton Roads have also played a critical role in this project. These organizations include: the Hampton Roads Alliance, Reinvent Hampton Roads and the Greater Williamsburg Partnership. HRPDC participates in the monthly meetings of the Hampton Roads Alliance-led Regional Economic Development team. This team consists of the region’s local economic development directors and other staff members. A large part of these meetings includes discussion of progress made on various economic development sites, as well as news on incoming investments and new business developments. It is well understood among this group that new business-ready sites in the region, regardless of the locality it is located in, is a net-positive for

Attachment 14

14

the entire region.

Additionally, in January and February of 2020, two separate meetings were held with VEDP, regional organizations (Hampton Roads Alliance, HRPDC, Greater Williamsburg Partnership, and Reinvent Hampton Roads) and individual localities with potential sites for economic development. During these meetings, representatives from VEDP shared the methodology of their suitability and developability scoring, worked with localities on how they might utilize this data and information in the future, and allowed the regional organizations to hear from the localities what data may need to be updated. This last portion of the meetings was important for refining the selection process to allow us to choose the most competitive sites for inclusion in this GO Virginia grant proposal. Finally, once the sites were chosen for inclusion in this funding proposal, HRPDC and Hampton Roads Alliance staff met with the participating localities to confirm all collected information and data is accurate, and to request and receive letters of support from respective city managers and economic development authority chairs. If GO Virginia funding is secured, regular check-ins with the localities will be scheduled to ensure goals and milestones are able to be met until Tier 4 Certification is confirmed at all sites.

12. Discuss prerequisite activities undertaken by the collaborating parties to increase

efficiency with regard to program delivery and support for the project once launched.

Working with a number of regional public and private sectors partners, the Hampton Roads Planning District Commission has been involved in sites readiness since 2017, when the sites inventory project was initially conceived. HRPDC staff created a repository of available sites, created a scoring method to understand the availability and developability of the various sites; this methodology was noticed by the VEDP and, after consultation with HRPDC, was modified and expand to the entire state. This is just one of the many reasons why HRPDC is well-suited to assist with program delivery and support once the project is launched. Additionally, through regional collaboration and effective communication over the course of the past 12 months, we believe we have selected the available sites with the greatest chance of success and for which a little additional funding would go a long way in achieving Tier 4 as quickly as possible. This was made possible by close collaboration with VEDP and DHCD. The project has been discussed with all Region 5 economic developers during monthly Regional Economic Development team meetings, during monthly meetings with the Chief Administrative Officers Committee, and has been presented at the HRPDC Board Meeting on February 20, 2020, where the Board of Directors approved HRPDC to move forward with a GO Virginia funding application for this project.

13. Identify the total project budget and the sources and uses for matching funds and leverage.

a. Does the project have the required $2:1 match? If so, what are the

Attachment 14

15

sources/uses for these funds? b. Does the project have the required 20% (or $50,000 if request is less than

$250k) local match? If so, what are the sources/uses for these funds? c. Are any additional funds or in-kind contributions serving as leverage for the

project? If so, what are the sources/uses for these funds? d. ATTACHMENTS: Financial commitment letters and In-Kind Contribution forms

should be uploaded with the application. Yes, each site has the required matching funds. The total project budget is $9,138,430.51, and the amount requested from DHCD is $1,267,245. See Appendix 1: Total Project Budget for detailed line-itemized information about the budget for each individual site. The sources of the matching funds come from the individual locality in which the site is located, as these are all public sites being prepared for development by the locality. The money that has been already spent or is committed to being spent is for site development work to elevate each site to Tier 4, and the money being requested from DHCD is additional that will aid the site to reach Tier 4 characterization. Letters of financial commitment and support are attached with this application from each participating locality.

14. Discuss how the program will achieve stable, long-term sustainability beyond the

initial funding period? Have any funding sources been secured to continue implementing the program or strategy following the exhaustion of these funds?

The initial funding for this project is intended to advance the three selected sites across Region 5 towards Tier 4 by completing due diligence supported with this grant. The advantage of this project request is that it will provide much-needed information about the sites, allowing for outside businesses to make solid financial commitment to develop the sites, bringing new business and industry to the region. The localities have already demonstrated a commitment to investing in these sites and will continue to invest in them moving forward.

By achieving the ultimate goal of this program – increasing the number of business ready sites in Region 5 – a new type of economic sustainability can be unlocked for the region. With the availability of more sites prepped and ready for development, the more attractive the region will be for potential developers, bringing along with it capital investment funds, jobs, and industry and sector diversity. This GOVA grant application is envisioned as a first step in advancing site readiness in Hampton Roads and to serve as a demonstration to show the competitive advantage that truly “business ready” sites have over other sites when it comes to attracting private investment. Staff of the HRPDC and the regional economic development organizations will continue to work with local and State partners to bring forward the most competitive sites in the region for consideration in future funding rounds.

Hampton Roads Economic Development Sites Readiness GO Virginia Grant Application

June 30, 2020

Executive Summary The proposed project will leverage funds to complete due diligence work recommended by earlier studies, including the Enhanced Site Characterization project recently performed by the Virginia Economic Development Partnership (VEDP), for three sites in Region 5, helping to accelerate the development of these sites to Tiers 3 or 4. This effort will assist in promoting the availability of shovel-ready sites to prospective businesses, which would in turn help to create higher paying jobs in Hampton Roads. The Hampton Roads Planning District Commission (HRPDC) will be the project sponsor working in collaboration with local economic development staff, the Hampton Roads Alliance, Reinvent Hampton Roads, the Virginia Economic Development Partnership and the Department of Housing and Community Development. The request for funding from GO Virginia is $1,267,245 and will be used for the next phase of due diligence site work and engineer’s review and certification of work completed for Tier 4, with confirmation infrastructure can be completed within 12 months for each of the three sites, which are all currently characterized at Tier 2. There are three sites included in this application for funding: Innovation Park in the City of Virginia Beach, Tech Center Corporate Research Center in the City of Newport News, and Shirley T. Holland Intermodal Park in Isle of Wight County. Each of these sites will attract new businesses to the region, resulting in an estimated 2,630 new jobs and an estimated $30 million in state income and tax revenue within 5 years of development. The total local match that has already been spent or is committed to being spent by the localities is $7,871,185.51, bringing the total project budget to $9,138,430.51. This initiative directly addresses GO Virginia’s Region 5 Growth & Diversification Plan recommendations to create an environment to spur establishment creation, attract out of region firms, provide opportunities for expansion of existing firms and increase diversification in the private sector. By increasing the number of shovel-ready business sites aiding to attract new business and development to the region, the project addresses the first and second goals of creating a coordinated regional capacity for innovation and increasing job creation through expanding and attracting out-of-region firms in the region’s key cluster areas. Working towards these goals of attracting and expanding industry and jobs in Region 5 will help to achieve the third goal of closing skills, credentialing and degree gaps in the workforce as new talent becomes attracted to the region due to expanded opportunities in new and exciting industries. This initiative is also aligned with the priority business sectors identified by the Hampton Roads Alliance: Advanced Manufacturing, Business and Shared Services, Distribution and Logistics, Food and Beverage Processing, and Information Technology.

Regional collaboration has been, and will continue to be, key to the success of this project. The

positioning of the Economic Development Sites Readiness project is designed to ensure that the

Hampton Roads region can capitalize on new industries to help diversify its economy away from

overdependence on defense assets and a damaged hospitality and retail industry that will take

a significant amount of time to recover from the COVID crisis. This effort is currently being

supported by a variety of agencies, including the Hampton Roads Planning District Commission,

local Economic Development Departments, and state entities including the Virginia Economic

Development Partnership. This high level of collaboration will continue into the implementation

phase of this project and with future project phases to improve regional site readiness.

The initial funding for this project is intended to advance the three selected sites across Region 5 to Tier 4 by completing due diligence. The advantage of this project request is that it will provide much-needed information about the sites, allowing for outside businesses to make solid financial commitment to develop the sites, bringing new business and industry to the region.

Dear Go Virginia Board,

On behalf of the Hampton Roads Alliance, we are writing to express our full support of the HamptonRoads Planning District Commission's (HRPDC) application for a grant to raise the tier level of largecommercial and industrial sites. Studies released by the Virginia Economic Development Partnership(VEDP) illustrate that a lack of large, essentially shovel-ready sites is the main reason that theCommonwealth loses projects. As a result, billions of dollars of potential investment is continuouslybeing lost to competing states. VEDP, in conjunction with some of Virginia's premier professionalengineering firms, developed a tier ranking system to showcase the readiness of sites across Virginiautilizing a common standard. Most sites in Hampton Roads and across the Commonwealth areranked as "Tier 2" sites, meaning that additional studies and investment may be needed; the goal, inorder to attract most major corporations seeking to meet a tight deadline, is Tier 4 status.

The three sites proposed in HRPDC's application perfectly showcase the geographic and industrialdiversity that defines the Hampton Roads region and can be promoted from Iier 2 to Tier 4 utilizingthis grant. All three sites performed above average in the developability and suitability scoringmatrices in VEDP's ranking system. The lnnovation Park in Virginia Beach and Tech CenterResearch Park in Newport News provide rare availability of land in close proximity to the vast majorityof the region's 1.8 million residents, as well as amenities and nearby major corporate entities likeLifeNet Health and Ferguson, respectively. Shirley T. Holland lntermodal Park in lsle of Wightprovides available land in a well-known park which already houses large distribution centers formultinational companies such as Keurig Dr. Pepper and Cost Plus World Market.

Without additional Tier 4 sites to house companies, Virginia will continue to lose out on companyrelocations that would othenruise have considered our Commonwealth. We ask that you approve thisgrant and help us fund the addition of three more Tier 4 parks to Virginia's certified sites catalog.

GO Virginia Region 5 Council c/o Reinvent Hampton Roads 101 W Main Street, Suite 415 Norfolk, VA 23510 RE: GO Virginia (GOVA) Grant for Business Ready Sites in Hampton Roads Dear GOVA Region 5 Council Members: On behalf of the Hampton Roads Planning District Commission (HRPDC), we are writing to urge your recommendation of approval for the Business Ready Sites in Hampton Roads GOVA grant application. Increasing the number of business-ready sites across the Commonwealth has been acknowledged as a necessary step towards increasing private investment and job growth. Recent studies have determined that the absence of developable sites cost Virginia at least 47 projects and $6.5 billion in capital investment over a five-year period. The HRPDC represents 17 local governments and over 1.7 million residents in southeastern Virginia. One of the most important responsibilities of the Commission is to encourage regional cooperation and planning for the future economic prosperity of the region. We believe that our responsibility to support regional economic development is particularly urgent at this time as we respond to the economic impacts of the COVID-19 global pandemic and prepare for the recovery of the Hampton Roads economy. The Business Ready Sites in Hampton Roads project is consistent with the State’s Virginia Business Ready Sites Program (VBRSP) and builds on the recent state-wide site analysis undertaken by the Virginia Economic Development Partnership (VEDP). This work better positions regions like Hampton Roads to improve site readiness with an investor-focused, data-driven approach that directs limited funds to the most competitive sites with the highest potential return on investment. This business-ready sites proposal will also leverage and complement a number of related initiatives that are already planned or underway in Hampton Roads:

• $5 Billion Investment in Transportation Infrastructure • Port of Virginia Infrastructure Projects

Site Background & History

The Tech Center Corporate Research Center site is located south of Oyster Point

Road (SR 171), east of Marketplace at Tech Center, north of Venture Apartments

in Tech Center, and west of SCOT Center and Canon Boulevard in Newport

News. The site consists of five parcels totaling approximately 63.66 acres of land

owned by the Economic Development Authority of the City of Newport News.

To begin this assessment, the site was visited by Draper Aden Associates on May

22, 2019. At the time of the visit, the site was wooded. In 1998, a Declaration of

Protective Covenants and Conditions for the Jefferson Center for Research and

Technology was established to govern the development of Tech Center, which

includes the subject parcels. The parcels are also subject to the Tech Center

Research Park Master Plan, which shows the northwest portion of the site as

undeveloped due to wetlands (with the exception of the site access road), and the

majority of building development in the southeast portion of the site. In July 2015,

the US Fish and Wildlife Service surveyed the parcel and identified the Northern

long-eared Bat as a threatened species that could impact the development of the

parcel. In May 2015, Acer Environmental identified approximately 6.347 acres of

wetlands that would be impacted by development of the subject parcel. In 2017, the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers

Norfolk District Regulatory Branch authorized WM Jordan, LLC to fill 705 feet of tributary ditch and four acres of forested

wetlands for the Village Green Parkway Extension roadway into the Tech Center Research Park, along the eastern

portion of the parcel. In July 2016, GET Solutions, Inc. prepared a Limited Phase II Environmental Site Assessment

Report. The City of Newport News has 30% drawings for an infrastructure improvement project designed to provide

additional roadway access to/through the Tech Center site, as well as providing connections with the two adjacent

arterial roads - Canon Boulevard and Oyster Point Road. This infrastructure project will also provide access to the

necessary utilities within the public right-of-way, as applicable. All available information has been evaluated and

considered in review of this site’s potential tier status.

In evaluating the site for its industrial buildout potential, it appears that the site is feasible for new construction as shown

in the Tech Center Conceptual Master Plan, dated December 18, 2018, which shows approximately 681,000 square feet

(SF) was estimated to fit onto the site within the given developable land constraints, resulting in a yield of approximately

10,697 SF/Acre; refer to Exhibit 4.

In order to evaluate the current level of readiness, the following elements were considered:

• Acreage/Developable Acreage

• Potential Development Yield

• Location/Accessibility

• Rail Accessibility

• Ownership

• Zoning/Land Use

• Topography

• Restricted Land Coverage

• Resource Protection Area

• Wetlands

• Floodplains

• Waterbodies

• Streams

• Wet Utility Access (i.e. Water, Sewer)

• Dry Utility Access (i.e. Natural Gas,

Power)

• Roads/Infrastructure

Summary of Wet Utility Infrastructure

WATER: The site is served by the Newport News Waterworks public water system. According to Newport News

Waterworks, there is over one million gallons per day (MGD) of capacity available within their system, with over 250,000

gallons per day (GPD) capacity at the site. Currently, the site is serviced by a 12-inch water main in SR 171 (Oyster Point

Road); refer to Exhibit 2.

SEWER: The site is served by the Hampton Roads Sanitation District (HRSD) public sewer system, with a 30-inch force

main adjacent to the site; refer to Exhibit 2. According to HRSD, the current available sanitary sewer system capacity at

the site is over 250,000 GPD.

Summary of Dry Utility Infrastructure

POWER: The site is located in Dominion Energy’s service territory. According to Dominion, bridging and long-term power

is available today to support most industrial prospects. The power information provided is based upon a preliminary review

at the time of this study. Locality and/or landowner should contact power provider prior to formally engaging a prospect

and/or prospective industry to validate the availability of power to the site.

GAS: This site is in Virginia Natural Gas (VNG) service territory. The nearest existing gas main is a high pressure line

(>60 psi) located within one-half mile from the site. Delivery timeline depends upon prospective industry needs. Future

capacity is dependent upon the completion of the Atlantic Coast Pipeline (ACP). The gas information provided is based

upon a preliminary review at the time of this study. Locality and/or landowner should contact gas provider prior to formally

engaging a prospect and/or prospective industry to validate the availability of gas to the site.

FIBER: Fiber/Broadband service is available through Cox Communications & Verizon. No additional information was

provided by the fiber provider at the time of the evaluation.

Summary of Transportation and Access

LOCAL ACCESS: Currently, the site’s main access is via Bayport Way and SR 171 (Oyster Point Road), but also has a

potential secondary connection along Hogan Drive.

4-LANE / INTERSTATE HIGHWAY ACCESS: The parcel is only 150 feet from SR 171 (Oyster Point Road), a 6-lane divided

highway, which is classified by the Virginia Department of Transportation (VDOT) as other principal arterial road. The

parcel is 0.5 mile from SR 143 (Jefferson Avenue), a 6-lane divided highway, which is also classified by VDOT as other

principal arterial road. Additionally, access to nearby I-64 is located approximately 1 mile east of the site through SR 171.

RAIL ACCESS: There is no rail access to the project site or the nearby properties.

Summary of Site Features

SITE USE & TOPOGRAPHY: The site is currently wooded, partially developed in the south-east corner and flat with little

change in elevation across the site.

ENVIRONMENTAL: In July 2016, GET Solutions, Inc. prepared a Limited Phase II Environmental Site Assessment Report

and determined through field observations and laboratory analysis of soil and groundwater samples, that total petroleum

hydrocarbons were not encountered from the borings sampled; metals were detected in both soil and groundwater media,

but volatile organic compounds (VOC) were only identified in groundwater. GET Solutions, Inc. advises that “[f]uture

development of the Site should consider the potential to encounter metals and volatile organic compounds within the soil

and/or groundwater, which may exceed regulatory thresholds…”

Wetlands limit development of the western portion of the site and confine development to site access in those areas.

According to FEMA FIRM Panel 5101030126D, dated December 9, 2014, the site is primarily located in Flood Zone X,

area of minimal flood hazard.

LOCATION AND ZONING: Currently, the zoning on the site is Office/Research and Development District (O3). The only

permitted industrial use in the O3 zone is “Indoor Manufacturing and Assembly” which is considered a “Limited Industrial”

use. No “Heavy Industrial” or “Open Industrial” uses are permitted. The property is located in an Enterprise Zone and a

Technology Zone. This zoning requires the site to be developed according to a master development plan to provide for the

orderly expansion of research and development oriented industries and related educational facilities, and to promote the

high technology diversification of Newport News' economic base. In addition, this property is subject to the Jefferson

Center for Research and Technology Protective Covenants and Conditions, as well as the Tech Center Research Park

Master Plan.

Site Characterization Tier Level Ranking Criteria

As summarized in the application, the Virginia Business Ready Sites Program (VBRSP) was established pursuant

to § 2.2-2238 C. of the Code of Virginia of 1950, as amended, to identify and assess the readiness of potential

industrial or commercial sites in the Commonwealth of Virginia for marketing for industrial or commercial

economic development purposes. The first step in determining a site’s readiness begins with an assessment to

quantify the level of existing development and the additional recommendations to market the site for industrial or

commercial economic development purposes.

Tier 1: Site is under (a) public ownership, (b) public/private ownership, or (c) private ownership, and of which such

owner(s) are agreeable to marketing the site for economic development purposes and allowing access to the property for

site assessment and marketing purposes. The site has no established sales price, minimal or no infrastructure, and

minimal or no due diligence has been performed.

Tier 2: Site is under (a) public ownership, (b) public/private ownership, or (c) private ownership with an option agreement

or other documentation of a commitment by the private owner(s) to a competitive sales price; permit access to the site for

site assessment, construction, and marketing; and market the site for industrial or commercial economic development

purposes. Comprehensive Plan reflects that the site is intended for industrial or commercial development land use, but

site is not zoned as such and a rezoning hearing needs to be scheduled. Preliminary evaluation is complete to confirm

site has minimal or no infrastructure and/or minimal or no due diligence in place.

Tier 3: Site is zoned for industrial or commercial development land use. Site could have minimal or no infrastructure in

place. Due diligence is complete including, but not limited to, a waters of the US (wetlands and streams) delineation with

US Army Corps of Engineers approval within the last five years (i.e. a Preliminary Jurisdictional Determination or

Jurisdictional Determination letter), geotechnical borings and preliminary evaluation (i.e. Preliminary Geotechnical

Report), boundary survey with easements and encumbrances identified (ALTA preferred), one-foot topographic survey, a

current cultural resources review, a current threatened and endangered species review, a Phase I Environmental Site

Assessment within the last five years and, if necessary, a floodplain study or geological / karst evaluation. Master

planning and preliminary engineering work is complete with associated reports and estimated costs and timelines for

infrastructure development quantified.

Tier 4: Site is positioned to support development such that building construction can take place in 12 months or less, with

all infrastructure improvements in place, or plans for necessary infrastructure improvements completed and approved

and deemed deliverable within 12 months by a licensed Professional Engineer in the Commonwealth of Virginia. All

infrastructure permit issues are identified and quantified.

Tier 5: Site is considered “shovel ready” with all site permits in place or identified such that building construction can

begin as soon as necessary land disturbance permits can be obtained by prospective industry.

Attachment 14

Site Summary – Innovation Park

Site Background & History The Innovation Park site is located in the City of Virginia Beach, west and south of Princess Anne Road, north of Tournament Drive, south of Landstown Centre Way, and east of Landstown Road and the Sports Complex. The site consists of seven parcels totaling approximately 146.7 acres of land with one public land owner – the City of Virginia Beach Development Authority. Currently, the zoning on the site is Light Industrial District (I-1).

To begin this assessment, the site was visited by Timmons Group on May 23rd, 2019. At the time of the visit, the site was largely undeveloped land with some residential development near the southern end of the site. Many onsite drainage ditches and adjacent ponds were noted during the visit as were utility connections to the adjacent Sports Complex. A 1 foot topographic and boundary survey was completed for the site in June 2018 by WPL for much of this site and some adjacent land. A wetlands delineation, prepared by kerr Environmental, with an approved Jurisdictional Determination from the Army Corps of Engineers was issued in March 2015. The delineation includes almost the entirety of the site and a lot of adjacent property. It identifies many linear non-regulated channels and two large wetland areas on the site, near the center and near the south end of the site. A sanitary sewer and a three-phase water Utility Master Plan was prepared for this site by kimley Horn and submitted in November 2018. GET prepared a preliminary geotechnical engineering report in January 2018 noting 2 to 4 feet of Roadbed FILL beneath existing pavement on site while topsoil, clay, and sand were discovered outside of the roadbed. A stormwater Master Plan was prepared for this site in November 2018 by kimley Horn which shows a peak flow reduction in the 10-year storm at the Salem Canal Ditch as the critical downstream outfall location. Three Level 2 Wet Ponds were included in this Master Plan. A guide for design called Princess Anne Commons Design Guidelines and Development Standards was prepared in Draft in March 2016 and shall be used as an aid in designing this site. All available information has been evaluated in review of this site’s potential tier status. Proffers require I-1 Light Industrial District uses for the site as contained in the Proffer Agreement, refined from those allowable per Section 1001(a) of the Zoning Ordinance.

In evaluating the site for its industrial buildout potential, approximately 1.025 million SF was estimated to fit onto the site within the given developable land constraints resulting in a yield of approximately 7,000 SF/Acre.

SITE SUMMARY

Attachment 14


Summary of Wet Utility Infrastructure WATER: The site is served by the City of Virginia Beach public water system. According to the 2018 Virginia Beach Biopark Utility Master Plan, there is a 20” water main in Princess Anne Road, a 10” water main on Landstown Centre Way, and a 12” water main on Tournament Drive. Seven hydrant flow tests along Princess Anne Road in 2017 showed results of 1000 to 1130 GPM with residual and static pressures of 58 and 48 to 54 PSI. The three proposed three phase water plan includes 12” and 8” water mains that connect to the existing water mains. Proposed building peak demands were included in the Master Plan. According to the City of Virginia Beach, there is approximately 1.0+ million gallons per day (MGD) of capacity available within their system. Currently, the site has an available capacity in excess of 250,000 gallons per day (GPD) from the nearby 20 in line approximately 10-500 ft from the site. There is no nearby water tank capacity available.

SEWER: The site is also served by the Hampton Roads Sanitation District sewer system. According to the 2018 Virginia Beach Biopark Utility Master Plan, there is an existing 10 inch gravity sewer line serving an adjacent property on Landstown Centre Way and a 42 inch HRSD force main near Landstown Road as well as a pump station at the Landstown Road and Landstown Centre Way intersection. There is an additional sanitary line at the south end of the site on Tournament Drive. HRSD indicates that the total system capacity is 1.0+ MGD and there are currently 250,000+ GPD available at the site via a 42” forcemain on-site/adjacent to the site. In addition to offsite infrastructure required to bring public sewer service to the site, the developer would be responsible for the construction of an on-site wastewater pump station and on-site force main to connect to the public system.

Summary of Dry Utility Infrastructure POWER: The site is primarily located in Dominion Energy’s (DE) service territory. According to Dominion, bridging and long-term power is available today to support most industrial prospects. The power information provided is based upon a preliminary review at the time of this study. Locality and/or landowner should contact power provider prior to formally engaging a prospect and/or prospective industry to validate the availability of power to the site.

GAS: This site is in Virginia Natural Gas service territory. The nearest existing gas main is a high pressure (>60 psig) located 2,000-5,000 feet from the site. Delivery timeline depends upon prospective industry needs. Future capacity is dependent upon the completion of the Atlantic Coast Pipeline (ACP). The gas information provided is based upon a preliminary review at the time of this study. Locality and/or landowner should contact gas provider prior to formally engaging a prospect and/or prospective industry to validate the availability of gas to the site.

FIBER: This site is served by Cox Communications for fiber. According to the information provided, Cox Communications could provide fiber service in support of industrial development today.

Summary of Transportation and Access LOCAL ACCESS: Currently, the site’s main access is via Princess Anne Road but also has a secondary connection along Tournament Drive. Future access within the site would vary depending on the location and phase of buildout. Early buildout of the site would be accessed directly from Princess Anne Road. Ultimate buildout – or development on larger central and southern tracts – would be through Princess Anne Road and potentially Tournament Drive. Access may also be allowed via Landstown Centre Way.

4-LANE / INTERSTATE HIGHWAY ACCESS: This local access would provide direct access to a 4-Lane road in Princess Anne Road. Dam Neck Road is only approximately 0.5 miles away. Access to I-264 via Princess Anne Road and Witchduck Road is approximately 6.75 miles away. However, multiple other connections with I-264 and I-64 are possible.

RAIL ACCESS: No rail access is available for this site.

Summary of Site Features SITE USE & TOPOGRAPHY: The site is currently in use for farming across the majority of the site with some pockets of forest vegetation and a small area of residential use along Princess Anne Road. Elevations are relatively flat and low with a few small hills and many drainage ditches.

ENVIRONMENTAL: The wetlands delineation indicates large areas of wetlands and non-regulated linear ditches on the site. The NWI data also indicates large areas of Freshwater Forested/Shrub Wetlands on site. The NWI data also indicates one small area of a perennial lake/pond along Princess Anne Road near the north end of the site.

LOCATION & ZONING: The site is bound to the north and east by Princess Anne Road, Tournament Drive to the east and south, adjacent private property and the Sports complex to the south and west, and private property and Landstown Centre Way to the north.

PROJECT BACKGROUND & ASSUMPTIONS

Attachment 14








Tier 1: Site is under (a) public ownership, (b) public/private ownership, or (c) private ownership, and of which such

owner(s) are agreeable to marketing the site for economic development purposes and allowing access to the property for

site assessment and marketing purposes. The site has no established sales price, minimal or no infrastructure, and

minimal or no due diligence has been performed.

Tier 2: Site is under (a) public ownership, (b) public/private ownership, or (c) private ownership with an option agreement

or other documentation of a commitment by the private owner(s) to a competitive sales price; permit access to the site for

site assessment, construction, and marketing; and market the site for industrial or commercial economic development

purposes. Comprehensive Plan reflects that the site is intended for industrial or commercial development land use, but

site is not zoned as such and a rezoning hearing needs to be scheduled. Preliminary evaluation is complete to confirm

site has minimal or no infrastructure and/or minimal or no due diligence in place.

Tier 3: Site is zoned for industrial or commercial development land use. Site could have minimal or no infrastructure in

place. Due diligence is complete including, but not limited to, a waters of the US (wetlands and streams) delineation with

US Army Corps of Engineers approval within the last five years (i.e. a Preliminary Jurisdictional Determination or

Jurisdictional Determination letter), geotechnical borings and preliminary evaluation (i.e. Preliminary Geotechnical

Report), boundary survey with easements and encumbrances identified (ALTA preferred), one-foot topographic survey, a

current cultural resources review, a current threatened and endangered species review, a Phase I Environmental Site

Assessment within the last five years and, if necessary, a floodplain study or geological / karst evaluation. Master

planning and preliminary engineering work is complete with associated reports and estimated costs and timelines for

infrastructure development quantified.

Tier 4: Site is positioned to support development such that building construction can take place in 12 months or less, with

all infrastructure improvements in place, or plans for necessary infrastructure improvements completed and approved

and deemed deliverable within 12 months by a licensed Professional Engineer in the Commonwealth of Virginia. All

infrastructure permit issues are identified and quantified.

Tier 5: Site is considered “shovel ready” with all site permits in place or identified such that building construction can

begin as soon as necessary land disturbance permits can be obtained by prospective industry.

SITE SUMMARYSite Summary – Isle of Wight County, Shirley T. Holland Intermodal Park Phase II

Site Summary

The Shirley T. Holland Intermodal Park Phase II is located in the southeastern

portion of the County of Isle of Wight, situated just east of the Town of

Windsor. Access to the site would likely come from Old Mill Road (SR 607).

The site consists of 4 parcels totaling approximately 268 acres of land owned

by Isle of Wight County Economic Development Authority. Currently, the

zoning on the majority of the site is limited Industrial (lI) with approximately 63

acres zoned for Rural Agricultural Conservation (RAC). Rural Agricultural

Conservation zoning does allow for some conditional industrial development.

Based on the information provided to Timmons Group, there has been

significant due diligence work completed on portions of the site. These due

diligence studies include a Phase I ESA (2001) and an archeological report

(2001) on 250 acres of the southern portion of the property. A wetlands

delineation and COE confirmation was performed in 2008 on the 82-acre

northern portion of the site and will need to be updated for Tier advancement.

Also, on the northern 82-acre parcel, a preliminary geotechnical report was performed in 2010 with a more detailed

study in 2017 that focused on the Master Plan “Building B-1” site. In January of 2017, a boundary survey and

topographic survey were completed for the northern 82 acres (contour lines were unlabeled in files submitted to

Timmons Group).

Recently, Isle of Wight Count has focused on preparing an 82-acre portion of the park to be permit ready. As a result,

the following items have been completed / approved:

• Master Water and Sewer Plan

• Storm Water Management Plan

• Traffic Analysis

• Erosion and Sediment Control for a proposed building layout

• Industrial Access Road Plans

• Boundary and Topographic Survey

• Geotechnical Study

• Wetlands Delineation and Confirmation as well as associated impacts for 82-acre site

From an infrastructure and utilities perspective, the Shirley T. Holland Intermodal Park Phase II has good potential.

While requiring some investment to ensure all the surrounding utilities have adequate capacity in servicing the site,

there is nearby access to water, sewer, fiber, natural gas, and power service. The site is well positioned for access to

US Highway 460 within one-half mile. Norfolk Southern Railroad bounds the site to the south, presenting the option

for rail access depending on the end-user.

In evaluating the site for its industrial buildout potential, approximately 2,750,000 SF were estimated to fit onto the site

within the given developable land constraints. The resulting yield of approximately 10,300 SF/Acre represents an

excellent yield for the region.

Summary of Wet Utility Infrastructure

WATER: The site currently has access to water infrastructure through the Isle of Wight/Windsor system. According to

Isle of Wight, there is sufficient capacity within their system to accommodate 50,000 gallons per day (GPD) at the site

currently; however, the future supply will be 2 million gallons per day (MGD). There is a 16” water main providing service

to the site today that runs along Old Mill Road and William A. Gwaltney Way.

SEWER: The site is serviced by the Isle of Wight / HRSD for sewer. According to HRSD, there are 13 million gallons per

day (GPD) available within the system as a whole (Nansemond Treatment Plant) with a 4” force main currently servicing

the site. Further evaluation is needed to ensure the sewer system at the site can meet the demands of industrial users.

Summary of Dry Utility Infrastructure

POWER: The site is located in Dominion Energy’s service territory and, according to discussions with Dominion, could

provide up to 7 MW of power today through existing distribution lines and a 115 kV transmission line within 1,500’ from

the site (on the other side of the railroad). Additional discussions and planning efforts would be required for power users

greater than 7 MW, and the timeline would be expected to be longer than one year.

GAS: This site is in Columbia Gas of Virginia service territory. Based on discussions with Columbia Gas, 10,000

MCF/month can be made available within 1 year by way of the 6” gas line on site. There is also a 12” Columbia Gas

main that bisects the site with a 50’ easement. Additional capacity may be available pending discussions with Columbia

Gas.

FIBER: Verizon, Charter, and level 3 could all provide service to the site from their existing lines in the vicinity of the site.

Further discussions may be necessary to ensure speeds can meet the demands of most industrial prospects. MBC also

has fiber lines running along US 460.

Attachment 14

Summary of Transportation and Access

LOCAL ACCESS: To date, the site is accessed by William A. Gwaltney Way via Old Mill Road (SR 607). It is expected

that there will be an additional main access road for the park from Old Mill Road (SR 607) at full build out.

4-LANE / INTERSTATE HIGHWAY ACCESS: From the site, it is approximately one-half mile to US 460 via Old Mill Road. This

would provide excellent access to a major four-lane road for the site. Additionally, the site is located adjacent to Norfolk

Southern rail line. The site is geometrically suited to offer rail service to industrial users that locate towards the southern

border of the site.

Summary of Site Features

SITE USE & TOPOGRAPHY: Currently, the site is a mix of cleared and forested land. Elevations range from El54 to El82

and overall the site is generally flat.

ENVIRONMENTAL: Based upon the FEMA Floodplain mapping, the 100-year or 500-year floodplains do not encroach on

the site. National Wetlands Inventory (NWI) indicates the potential for few small isolated wetlands on the site. The

northern 82-acre portion of the site has already mitigated wetland impacts for the entire area and is ready for

development.

SITE FEATURES: The site is adjacent to the existing facilities for Keurig Green Mountain, Safeco Products, and Cost Plus

World Market’s Virginia Distribution Center. Norfolk Southern rail divides the site from the 1,691-acre Norfolk Southern

Property.

Tier Assignment

The Tier Level analysis of the Shirley T. Holland Intermodal Park Phase II located in the County of Isle of Wight currently identifies it as a Tier 2 Level of readiness. The property has significant due diligence work completed on

different portions of the site and is zoned appropriately for industrial development. Due to this, the site is positioned to move quickly to a Tier 4 level of readiness pending the completion of the necessary due diligence work. Below is

a summary of the recommended tasks required to advance the entire property to the next Tier level.


1. Updated Geotechnical Survey and Report to include entire site $13,000 2. Updated AlTA / land Survey to include entire site $37,500 3. Updated 1’ Topo (LiDAR) $71,500 4. Updated Phase I Environmental Site Assessment to include entire

site $4,500

5. Updated Cultural Resource Summary to include entire site $2,000 6. Threatened & Endangered Species Summary $2,000 7. Updated Wetland Delineation and COE Wetland Confirmation for the

entire site $16,500


1. All permitting issues identified and quantified – Engineer’s Review & Certification with completion of above items

$3,500

Note: The northern 82-acre portion of the site, if evaluated independently, could identify as a Tier 4 or 5 site based on the focused effort to get the area permit ready. Outstanding due diligence items for the 82-acre portion are:

1. Phase 1 ESA 2. Cultural Resources Study 3. Threatened and Endangered Study

Attachment 14

Base Report Information:

Reinvent Hampton Roads and HRPDC identified the site evaluated in this study as a potential industrial / economic

development site within the Hampton Roads region. For the purposes of this Tier Assessment study, it is assumed that

this property has, or will have, a willing seller.

Timmons Group provided this assessment based upon the information provided by HRPDC, the individual localities and/or

the property owners. Should additional information be made available after the completion of this report, Timmons Group

can re-evaluate the Tier Assessment of the site at a later date.

Budgets provided are for planning purposes only. Should Reinvent, HRPDC, the localities or the property owners decide

to move forward with the recommended work, a detailed scope and fee can be provided for proposed services.

Site Constraints & Layouts

The site constraints were developed utilizing the best available information (National Wetlands Inventory, FEMA

Floodplains, etc.) and site layouts were developed utilizing best professional judgement. Since there can be significant

variability between National Wetlands Inventory and a formal wetlands delineation with COE confirmation and Zone A

FEMA Floodplain and an actual Floodplain Study, these layouts should be considered conceptual in nature only. Once

more accurate site information has been developed (i.e. wetlands delineation w/ COE confirmation, 1’ topo survey,

detailed floodplain studies, etc.), Timmons Group can provide updated site layouts to be reflective of the detailed site

development constraints.

Acknowledgments:

Timmons Group would like to thank Reinvent Hampton Roads, Hampton Roads Economic Development Authority

(HREDA) and Hampton Roads Planning District Commission (HRPDC) for the opportunity to perform this study.

In particular, we would like to thank the Isle of Wight County Economic Development staff for their assistance with this

particular site.

performance measures outlined in the application. This spreadsheet will supplement the CAMS budget in

order to present a complete list of all project sources and uses. Directions for each tab are listed below the
