Mr. John Zeugner, representing the Partnership for Smarter
Growth, requested that the Board deny a time extension for
the Planning Commission to review the Draft Comprehensive
Plan and keep it on schedule.
Ms. Jaeckle expressed concerns that the Planning Commission
might not have adequate time to review the plan. She stated
public comment is important as people really see the effects
of the plan. She further stated she would prefer moving the
extension to December, if possible, to allow adequate review
time.
Mr. Turner stated the Planning Commission has been very
engaged and deliberate in the review and is very concerned
about bringing forth a plan that best represents the interest
of the citizens and best serves the county. He further
stated, at the current pace that the Planning Commission has
been working, he does not think they can complete the work
that they have started by July 19th. He stated staff has
prepared a schedule for the Planning Commission that would
allow them to complete the review by September. He expressed
concerns regarding public feedback and the amount of time it
would take the Planning Commission to review the input.
Mr. Holland stated he does not support the request to defer
or extend the Draft Chesterfield Countywide Comprehensive
Plan review. He further stated there have been more than
enough community meetings regarding the plan. He stated the
Board has made sure that the Planning Commission is not
overwhelmed with case loads.
Ms. Jaeckle stated the Richmond Association of Realtors is in
support of a deferral. She further stated realtors have the
most vested interests in the Comprehensive Plan.
Ms. Durfee stated she brought the issue about revising the
Comprehensive Plan to Chesterfield County in 2002. She
further stated the citizens in the last election wanted
better planning, strong leadership, predictability, and
issues such as transportation and the environment addressed.
She stated the role of the Planning Commission was to take
the document they were given, by two years worth of work with
consultants and Steering Committee members, and to make
recommendations off of that document. She further stated
there was plenty of time allotted to work on the plan and
Chesterfield County desperately needs direction in
comprehensive planning. She stated the Board has a reputation
to uphold for the citizens. She further stated the plan is a
general guide; it is not to be detailed or specific. She
expressed concerns involving the possible delay of the plan
because of special interests. She stated she does not support
the request for a time extension.
Mr. Gecker stated there were delays in the system because
what is being undertaken is a fairly significant project. He
further stated many years were spent developing the Upper

r~
Swift Creek Plan and there was a lot of citizen involvement
to create a document that protected the Upper Swift Creek
geography. He stated, in regards to the Comprehensive Plan
and the timeframe referenced, it is not an accurate
reflection of the facts. He stated the Planning Commission
has spent a great deal of time going over all the elements.
He further stated the process has been known to be from the
beginning, that the Steering Committee and consultants would
come up with a draft and from there by statute it goes to the
Planning Commission where they do their best to work through
the plan and come up with a recommendation to the governing
body. He stressed the importance of the extension and getting
the proposed plan right.
Ms. Durfee stated the county has not had a Comprehensive Plan
in twenty-seven years. She further stated the plan is not
supposed to be perfect, and there has been more than enough
time spent preparing documents. She expressed concerns
regarding the time and hard work the consultants have put
into the plan, going unnoticed.
Mr. Holland noted that he has never solicited a dollar from
any special interest group for political purpose. He stated
he does not support the deferral request.
In response to Ms. Durfee's comment regarding delay of the
plan because of special interests, Ms. Jaeckle stated the
citizens in her district are considered her special interest.
She further stated there are some areas of her district that
have been proposed as very high density that will affect
roads. She stated the September date is too soon to get
significant public input.
Ms. Jaeckle made a motion, seconded by Mr. Gecker, for the
Board to approve the Planning Commission's request to extend
its draft Chesterfield Countywide Comprehensive Plan review
to December 14, 2011.
In response to Mr. Warren's question regarding the time
extension, Mr. Turner stated given the path that the Planning
Commission has chosen, which is to be very stringent as far
as review of the plan and to consider every recommendation,
they can complete their review and their edits by September.
He further stated he is unsure of the public participation
process. He stated the Planning Commission has not formally
decided how they wanted to take public input and the public
has not had the benefit of seeing the edits the Planning
Commission has made. He stated the public has a draft plan
that has been prepared by the consultants and the Steering
Committee.
Ms. Durfee stated Mr. Turner's staff has been patiently
working with the Planning Commission. She further stated if
the Planning Commission had stayed on task by taking the
document and making recommendations from it, they might not
be at this point right now. She stated she finds it highly
ineffective for a government to have a document out for this
long. She expressed concerns regarding the reputation of the
county, the consultants and all the work the Steering
Committee has done.
Mr. Gecker stated the role of the Commission has been called
into question a lot of times today. He further stated the
11-389
06/15/11
State Code says the local Planning Commission shall prepare
and recommend a Comprehensive Plan.
Mr. Warren called for a vote on the motion of Ms. Jaeckle,
seconded by Mr. Gecker, for the Board to approve the Planning
Commission's request to extend its draft Chesterfield
Countywide Comprehensive Plan review to December 14, 2011.

Nays: Holland and Durfee.
8.B.17 ADOPTION OF RESOLUTION ESTABLISHING SALARIES FOR THE
MEMBERS OF THE 2012-2015 BOARD OF SUPERVISORS
Mr. George Beadles expressed concerns regarding the
submission of the item at the last minute.
Mr. Gecker stated the add-on was due to staff oversight.
Mr. Gecker made a motion, seconded by Ms. Jaeckle, for the
Board to freeze the current salary for the members of the
2012-2015 Board of Supervisors.
In response to Mr. Mincks' question regarding the motion, Mr.
Gecker stated the motion is that the salary will remain at
$33,726 for each of the four years and will not fluctuate
with the staff increase.
Ms. Durfee stated pay has never been an issue with any of the
Board members because their service is for the public. She
further stated the Board needs to be realistic regarding a
pay structure and a system. She expressed concerns regarding
salaries for future Board members. She stated Chesterfield is
far below other jurisdictions that are comparable. She
further stated the Board should consider what has been done
in the past by having a minimum range and a potential maximum
range over four years that is fair and objective and takes
into account a modest increase according to what county
employees obtain.
Mr. Holland reiterated Ms. Durfee's comments and stated the
Board pay should be inline with county employees. He further
stated the Board should be reasonable for the future Board of
Supervisors.
In response to Mr. Warren's question, Mr. Mincks stated the
previous Board of Supervisors had projected increases that
were voted on in 2007, and at that time the thought was that
there would be a projected annual increase of 4.5 percent,
however that did not happen as a result of the economy. He
further stated the current upward limit for this particular
year is $37, 008, but due to the fact that there were no pay
increases the salary was set at $33,726. He stated staff
recommended the two percent salary increase in FY2012-2013
for county employees that would result in a salary of $34,400
for the next Board and if the Board readopts the current
salary amount for the remaining three calendar years, the
next Board will be limited to the $37,008 maximum for
calendar years 2013-2015, in accordance with approved
employees salary increases.

Ms. Durfee made a substitute motion, seconded by Mr. Holland,
for the Board to approve staff recommendations.
Mr. Mincks clarified the substitute motion, stating the two
percent salary increase in FY2012-2013 for county employees
would result in a salary of $34,400 for the next Board
effective January 2012, the remaining three years the Board
would receive approved employee increases up to a maximum
amount of $37,008 and the stipends for Vice-Chairman and
Chairman will remain the same.
Mr. Warren stated Board members who do not wish to have an
increase can have that option. He further stated he supports
the substitute motion.
Discussion ensued regarding the substitute motion.
Mr. Warren called for a vote on the substitute motion of Ms.
Durfee, seconded by Mr. Holland, for the Board to approve
staff recommendations to adopt the two percent salary
increase in FY2012-2013 for county employees that would
result in a salary of $34,400 for the next Board effective
January 2012, the remaining three years the Board would
receive approved employee increases up to the maximum amount
of $37,008 and the stipends for Vice-Chairman and Chairman

15. FIFTEEN-MINUTE CITIZEN COMMENT PERIOD ON UNSCHEDULED
MATTERS
Ms. Jeannie Wilson addressed the Board relative to
enforcement of the backflow prevention ordinance and the
requirement for annual irrigation system inspections.
Mr. James Shelton addressed the Board relative to bus
transportation in the county.
Mr. Chuck Gates addressed the Board relative to the regional
transportation priority list.
In response to Ms. Wilson's concerns, Mr. Covington stated
the law has been in effect for the requirement of annual
testing of backflow prevention devices for many years. He
further stated in the last couple of years, tools have been
created to effectively implement the enforcement of annual
backflow testing. He stated his department has sent out
10,000 postcard reminders to citizens to have their backflow
prevention devices tested and are monitoring the responses.
In response to Mr. Warren's question regarding the reason for
testing, Mr. Covington stated it is a low-risk situation with
a high consequence in terms of public health.
In response to Mr. Stegmaier's question regarding the .risk if
one's device is not working properly, Mr. Covington stated
each device is a part of a water distribution system which
protects users from chemicals or other harmful substances
that can ultimately contaminate the public water system and
the home plumbing system. He further stated backflow
prevention devices are required at irrigation locations to
filter out pesticides and herbicides that can do harm to
public health.
In response to Ms. Durfee's question, Mr. Covington stated it
is a law within the Department of Health and Waterworks
regulations.
Ms. Durfee expressed concerns regarding protection of
citizens in terms of costs of backflow testing. She stated
the county needs to inform citizens and provide referrals of
companies that provide the service.
Mr. Covington stated the Utilities Department has utilized
multiple ways to communicate information to the public. He
further stated postcards are directly mailed to customers. He
stated when a customer inquires about a companion meter,
specific guidelines are given on what exactly is required. He
further stated the cost to test backflow is anywhere from
$35-$125. He stated there is a list available to the public
of seventy contractors who are certified within the county to
test irrigation systems.

In response to Mr. Warren's questions regarding testing, Mr.
Covington stated an annual basis is a little excessive;
however, hundreds of devices have been discovered that were
not working properly.
