Mr. Miller congratulated Mr. Cable upon receiving the award
and expressed appreciation for his dedicated service to the
county.
6. WORK SESSIONS
6.A. FINANCIAL POLICIES, PROJECTED FY2005/2006 REVENUES, AND
CHESTERFIELD COMMUNITY SERVICES BOARD FY2005/FY2006
BUDGET PRESENTATIONS
MS. Dickson stated staff is recommending that the Board adopt
updated financial policies as part of the budget adoption
04,-115
02/11/04
process, indicating that all of the policies being proposed
are currently implemented by practice. She then introduced
Mr. Ben Asher, representing the county's financial advisor,
Public Resources Advisory Group.
Mr. Asher stressed the importance of following and revising
financial policies for the county to continue receiving its
AAA bond rating, which is the primary determining factor in
the cost of borrowing for general obligation bonds.
Discussion ensued relative to the county's bond rating being
impacted if the state's AAA bond rating were to falter.
Mr. Asher stated he believes the issues the state is facing
are quite distinct from any issues in the county, and he
would see no impact on the county's bond rating as a result
of issues facing the Commonwealth of Virginia.
Ms. Dickson stated the debt per capita target and ceiling
figures are proposed to be revised in the county's Debt Ratio
Policies, and staff is suggesting that these figures be
adjusted at the beginning of each biennium. She then
reviewed population data from 1970 through 2004 and FY2005
projected revenues vs. FY2004 adopted revenues. She stated
revenues were projected assuming a tax rate of $1.07,
indicating that the overall increase in the assessment base
is 9.7 percent, 3.4 percent of which is from new
construction, and the rate of growth in residential assessed
value exceeded that of commercial from 2003 to 2004. She
reviewed real estate assessed value from 1995 through 2004;
percentage change of real estate assessed value from 1995
through 2004; commercial/industrial real estate percent of
assessed value from 1995 through 2004; ratio of jobs to the
labor force; building permits from 1995 through 2004; and
percentage of units paying proffers to total building
permits. She stated personal property taxes maintain the
current rate and reviewed the number of new and used car
registrations and percentage change in personal property
revenue. She further stated FY2003 local sales tax receipts
were 6.3 percent over FY2002 actual receipts, and FY2004
year-to-date receipts continue this positive trend. She
reviewed percentage of change in local sales tax from FY1996-
FY2006 projected; local sales tax percent distribution; and
use tax as a percentage of local sales and use taxes. She
then reviewed FY2005 general fund sources and uses, as well
as initiatives in preparing the budget. She reviewed
proposed fee increases for FY2005 and FY2006, including
administrative fees for collection of delinquent taxes and
other charges for the Treasurer's Office; residential and
commercial inspection fees in Building Inspection; and
various fees in Waste and Resource Recovery.
Mr. Ramsey stated staff is hopeful that the proposed fee
increase for bi-weekly refuse collection will result in the
private sector offering a bi-weekly service for citizens who
do not have a demand for weekly service.
Mr. Miller stated he wants to further explore the proposed
fee increases in Waste and Resource Recovery.
Mr. Barber stated he feels staff should further explore the
proposed gate fee increase.
04-116
02/11/04
Ms. Dickson continued to review proposed fee increases in
Waste and Resource Recovery.
Mr. Barber inquired whether the county would be better off
discontinuing the leaf vacuuming service rather than doubling
the fee.
Mr. Ramsey stated staff feels leaf vacuuming is a service the
county might want to back away from.
Ms. Dickson reviewed the proposed budget work session
schedule. She introduced Mr. Braunstein to provide the Board
with an annual review of the Community Services Board (CSB).
Mr. Braunstein began the presentation by recognizing members
of the Community Services Board. He then introduced Ms.
Frances Hayes-Brown, Chairperson of the CSB, to review CSB
accomplishments.
Ms. Brown reviewed CSB accomplishments, including continuing
to serve over 5,000 citizens while providing education for
thousands more; significantly reducing deficit budgeting over
the past three years, while experiencing extensive state
budget cuts; receiving national accreditation and recognition
for quality services; eliminating the three-month waiting
list for a psychiatry appointment; and continuing to be
perceived by citizens served as providing satisfactory
services 90 percent of the time. She introduced Mr. Dean
Lynch to provide the Board with details of challenges facing
the CSB.
Mr. Lynch reviewed challenges facing the CSB, including
increased rate of citizens needing services from four percent
to ten percent depending on the program; waiting list of
citizens with mental retardation urgently needing services
has increased to 70; aging of family caregivers; and a
growing number of citizens graduating from school services
needing employment or day services. He then reviewed actions
that can be taken with existing or accessible revenues to
meet the challenges, including developing a specialized care
facility for the most physically vulnerable citizens with
mental retardation; additional case managers to ensure
responsiveness to family and consumer needs; and additional
day service staff to respond to increasingly complex needs.
He reviewed two planned items that do not currently have a
revenue source - increasing the number of high school
graduates with special needs who can be trained and placed in
employment; and providing speech and language therapy to
developmentally delayed infants to increase chances of
success when old enough for school services.
Mr. Barber thanked CSB members for the informative
presentation.
Discussion ensued relative to the possibility of providing
speech and language therapy to developmentally delayed
infants through the school system and the identification of
infants in need of this service.
02/11/0~
6.B. CHESAPEAKE BAY PRESERVATION ORDINANCE
Ms. Joan Salvati, Water Quality Administrator, provided
details of proposed amendments to the Chesapeake Bay
Preservation Ordinance. She first reviewed the basis for the
recommended amendments and the process used in developing the
amendments. She then reviewed major changes, including
protecting water bodies with perennial flow by Resource
Protection Area (RPA) buffers; and requiring "in field"
verification of streams with perennial flow.
Discussion ensued relative to the determination of water
bodies with perennial flow and ways to provide information to
potential buyers of property regarding perennial flowing
bodies on the property.
Mr. Miller stated he thinks the county should have a more
sophisticated method of providing information regarding
perennial flowing bodies on property in the county.
Ms. Salvati stated staff is in the process of preparing a map
showing perennial streams. She further stated staff proposes
conducting the required ~in-field" determinations earlier in
the approval process than plan review and has proposed
language to require that the determinations be made "as part
of, or prior to the zoning application process."
When asked, Ms. Salvati stated there is a grandfathering
provision using an administrative procedure for excluding
parcels in existing subdivisions recorded prior to the
adoption of the ordinance amendments from the RPA
requirements.
Discussion ensued relative to various situations and whether
the grandfathering provision would apply.
When asked, Ms. Salvati stated staff does not anticipate any
problems regarding the Meadowville tract. She further stated
the process formerly used for determining perenniality was
the United States Geological Service maps, which were not
accurate in making this determination. She further stated
staff has been provided with a document listing specific
scientific methods for conducting perenniality
determinations, and is proposing to use the "field indicator"
method approved by the Chesapeake Bay Local Assistance
Department (CBLAD) to determine stream perenniality. She
stated staff will use a two-pronged approach: 1) on a
request basis, conduct perenniality determinations; and 2)
prepare a systematic county-wide mapping of streams that are
perennial. She noted the mapping will be a lengthy process
and will begin in watersheds in the high growth areas. She
stated staff is working with Economic Development to look at
sites of concern as well as school sites.
Mr. Barber stated he is not comfortable adopting ordinance
amendments prior to development of the map.
Ms. Salvati stated two methods have been tested in the field
for determining perenniality and staff believes the ~Fairfax
Method" is valid and more accurately depicts whether or not a
stream must be protected according to the Chesapeake Bay
Preservation Ordinance. She then called forward Mr. Scott
Crafton, Director of the Chesapeake Bay Local Assistance
0~-118
02/11/04
Department, to provide details of penalties the county might
face if the ordinance amendments are not adopted.
Mr. Crafton stated local governments who have not adopted the
required amendments by March 22, 2004 will be found
inconsistent and given until June 2004 to adopt the
amendments. He further stated localities who have not
adopted the amendments by June 2004 will be turned over to
the Attorney General's Office and suit will be filed to order
the jurisdiction to adopt the ordinance amendments. He noted
that local governments have been on notice for nearly two
years that these ordinance amendments were required. He
stated there have been virtually no complaints from the 84
localities that have already adopted the ordinance
amendments, indicating it is very rare that a property owner
is unable to develop his property as a result of these
amendments.
When asked, Mr. Crafton stated the proposed amendments were
stimulated by a directive from the Governor in 1988 aimed at
addressing non-point source pollution runoff resulting from
land development.
Discussion ensued relative to the definition of a perennial
stream.
Mr. Crafton expressed concerns that it will take at least two
years for the county to complete a mapping process for stream
perenniality. He stated he does not believe the county needs
to wait on a finished map before adopting the ordinance
amendments, and reiterated the penalty to local governments
for not adopting the amendments.
Mrs. Humphrey stated the county has already addressed
phosphorous runoff and can validate to the Attorney General's
Office that the Board went beyond other jurisdictions in
addressing pollution and its impact on the Chesapeake Bay.
She further stated she believes that requesting detailed maps
of perennial streams is appropriate. She expressed concerns
relative to the impact of the proposed amendments on the
Route 288 Corridor and the Meadowville tract. She expressed
further concerns relative to staff making perenniality
determinations rather than having a definitive definition of
a perennial stream and how it will be interpreted in the site
plan process. She stated she would like to have perennial
streams identified in the staff report provided to the
Planning Commission.
Ms. Salvati stated the ordinance amendments already include a
definition of a perennial stream. She further stated the
protocols for determining perenniality have been finalized by
the state, tested and evaluated in other localities.
Mrs. Humphrey again stated she wants to see information
relative to stream perenniality in staff's analysis of zoning
cases.
Mrs. Salvati stated the ordinance amendments would protect
streams not only in the Upper Swift Creek, but countywide.
She further stated the amendments would be an enhancement to
the Regional BMP Plan adopted by the Board.
04-119
02/11/04
When asked, Ms. Salvati stated the ordinance amendments
represent what has specifically been required by the state
regarding perenniality determinations. She further stated
staff has added a provision to prohibit all terrain vehicles
in Resource Protection Areas that was not required by the
state.
Mr. Barber suggested that the Board set a public hearing date
in May 2004 to meet the June deadline referred to by Mr.
Crafton. He noted Ms. Salvati has indicated that mapping of
the Meadowville tract and the Route 288 Corridor would be
available prior to that time.
Mr. Barber then made a motion, seconded by Mrs. Humphrey, for
the Board to set the date of May 26, 2004 at 7:00 p.m. to
consider amendments to the Chesapeake Bay Preservation
Ordinance.
Mr. Micas noted that Mr. Crafton indicated the deadline for
adopting the ordinance amendments is March 22, 2004 and
enforcement action will be taken in June. He stated if the
Board sets a public hearing after the March date, the county
may be found not in conformance with state law.
Mr. Barber stated he does not believe CBLAD will take
enforcement action if it sees the county is moving towards a
conclusion.
Mr. Miller expressed concerns that the Board has had such a
limited time to deal with a very substantial issue and stated
he will support a public hearing date in May.
Mr. Miller then called for a vote on the motion of Mr.
Barber, seconded by Mrs. Humphrey, for the Board to set the
date of May 26, 2004 at 7:00 p.m. to consider amendments to
the Chesapeake Bay Preservation Ordinance.
Ayes: Miller, Barber, Humphrey, King and Warren.

Mr. Barber stated he does not believe there were any cash
proffers provided with the original zoning, but they could be
collected if rezoning was requested. He further stated this
might be a way to circumvent reduced connection fees for
private use.
Mrs. Humphrey stated the proposed fee schedule for the off-
site dormitory is consistent with the on-campus fee schedule.
She further stated there is a provision in the zoning that if
the university were to decide it no longer needed the
facility for a dormitory, a new rezoning request would be
required and cash proffers would apply.
Mr. Ed Mazur, Vice President for Administration and Finance
at Virginia State University (VSU), stated he supports the
proposed ordinance. He then introduced Mr. Larry Saunders,
Chairman of the Board of Trustees of the VSU Real Estate
Foundation.
Mr. Saunders stated the project is being built for the sole
