In the spring of 2020, Chesterfield County, VA (the County) contracted Evergreen Solutions,
LLC to perform a Compensation study of its public safety departments. The results of this
study provide the County’s leadership and other key stakeholders with information related to
the fairness and competitive standing of the County’s current compensation structure, as well
as recommendations for improvement moving forward.
Key Findings
Evergreen found that the County possesses a unique compensation plan for each
respective public safety department currently. While the plans are designed fairly well,
they have not performed well in preventing pay compression from occurring for a wide
variety of public safety ranks below the midpoint of the range. Evergreen found that
the overwhelming majority of employees possessed a salary below their midpoint, with
the majority being located in the first quartile of the salary range, which is not indicative
of the organizational tenure employees have.
Employees were surveyed for their perceptional feedback on the current compensation
structure; the highest ranked concern by employees was that of salary compression,
with additional concern about the lack of salary progression also being cited.
When comparing against the market average on a structural level, the County
possessed fairly competitive salary ranges, with the notable exception of the Sheriff’s
office;
However, the County’s average actual salary comparison against market peers showed
the County lagged the market average in a number of ranks. This further reinforces the
notion that the County’s ranges themselves while fairly well designed, have not allowed
for any significant salary progression and the County is dealing with clustering of
employee salaries at the beginning portions of its ranges.
This clustering and overall compression of salaries has occurred by way of the lack of
salary mobility provided by the current open-range compensation structures. The open-
range structures have not allowed for the County to easily identify compression issues
as they arise, as there is no context of employee or expected salary versus tenure built
into the range.
Key Recommendations
1. Revise the current salary ranges, and adopt a new, step-based pay plan for the Fire,
Police, and Sheriff departments; and slot all classifications into their respective pay
plans based on years of experience.
EVERGREEN SOLUTIONS, LLC
Executive Summary
Page 10 of 394
Executive Summary Classification and Compensation Study and
Pay Plan Development for Public Safety for Chesterfield County, VA
Evergreen Solutions, LLC Page ii
a. Evergreen has developed a new pay structure for the existing public safety
classifications based on the market data and peer practices. The updated pay
structures can be found in Exhibits 4-1, 4-2, and 4-3. The exhibits are also reflective
of starting salaries for higher positions at higher starting steps. This was designed
to be realistic with requirements on years of experience at each position and to
reduce rank compression between reporting relationships.
2. Evergreen recommends the County adopt a methodology to transition employee
salaries into the proposed pay plan that aligns with its established compensation
philosophy and the availability of resources.
a. Evergreen further recommends the County opt for a phased approach where by in
phase 1 the County maintains the current open range structure and increases
compensation by a tenure-based percentage increase, in order to mitigate some of
the range compression present in the current structure. In phase 2, Evergreen
recommends the County implement the step plan, assigning all incumbents to the
appropriate step based on total tenure parity.
b. The total cost to implement both phase 1 and phase 2, accounting for both salary
and benefits costs, is $22,384,270.34.
3. Conduct small-scale salary surveys on a regular basis to assess the market
competitiveness of all public safety positions, and make adjustments to pay grade
assignments, if necessary.
4. Conduct a comprehensive classification and compensation analysis every five to seven
years.
5. Adopt a philosophical approach to adjusting the new step-based structures on an
annual basis.
a. This can be done by way of several methods:
i. An annual small-scale survey of the peer organizations for their newest rates for
each rank or a subset of ranks
ii. An annual survey of peer organizations attaining the anticipated compensation
structure percentage movements
iii. Tying the adjustment of the plans to a reliable and easy to follow metric such as
the change in local CPI.
iv. A combination or hybrid of the above approaches
6. Revise policies and practices for moving employees’ salaries through the pay plan,
including procedures for determining salaries of newly hired employees and employees
who have been promoted, demoted, or transferred to a different classification.

In the spring of 2020, Chesterfield County, VA (the County) contracted Evergreen Solutions,
LLC to perform a Compensation study of its public safety departments. The results of this
study provide the County’s leadership and other key stakeholders with information related to
the fairness and competitive standing of the County’s current compensation structure, as well
as recommendations for improvement moving forward.
The focus of this analysis is to determine and further enhance the level of internal and external
equity of the current compensation structure. Internal equity is defined as the fairness of
compensation between the different positions inside of the organization, whereas external
equity is defined as the difference between how an organization’s classifications are
compensated and valued in the marketplace for similarly performed work.
1.1 ANALYSIS METHODOLOGY
Through a qualitative and quantitative methodology, the analysis’s purpose is to maximize
both the competitiveness and fairness of the County’s compensation and classification
structure. This was completed through the following activities in the project:
Conducting a project kick-off meeting;
Conducting on-site meetings with public safety leadership;
Conducting employee compensation satisfaction survey;
Conducting an external market salary survey;
Developing recommendations for compensation management;
Designing implementation plans; and
Creating draft and final reports.
Kick-off Meeting
The kick-off meeting for the project was performed to develop a work plan for the study and
begin the process of collecting the County’s data. This included things such as the County’s
current pay plans, pay policies, job descriptions, organizational charts, and information on
organizational culture.
Employee Survey
Employees from all three agencies were provided the opportunity to complete a survey on a
variety of topical questions related to the compensation study. Employees provided
information related to demographics of the workforce, satisfaction with the compensation

structure, and identified concerns related with the current approach to compensation at the
County.
Market Survey
A survey was developed with the intent to solicit salary information from market peer
organizations. These peers were identified by geographic proximity, population served, input
from leadership, and similar organizational characteristics. The survey tool collects salary
information by utilizing benchmarks selected across region. All ranks from each of the three
public safety departments were included in this survey for comparison.
Recommendations and Implementation Plan
For the recommendations and implementation, Evergreen made a final assessment on the
current pay plan and also provided recommendations to each rank and pay grade assignment.
Due to the nature of the recommended plans, Evergreen also provided the County various
implementation scenarios for consideration, until a best fit approach was identified. The
County was also provided information on how to implement the recommended salary
adjustments over a multiple phase approach as well.
1.2 REPORT ORGANIZATION
This report includes the following additional chapters:
Chapter 2 – Assessment of Current Conditions
Chapter 3 – Market Summary
Chapter 4 – Recommendations
Page 13 of 394
Evergreen Solutions, LLC Page 2-1
Prior to conducting an analysis of market data, employee classifications, compensation
structure, employee salary progression, policies or other organizational information,
Evergreen Solutions performed an assessment of current conditions within the County’s
Public Safety departments and provided an overall assessment of our findings. This overall
assessment is divided into the following sections:
2.1 Pay Plan Analysis
2.2 Employee Salary Placement by Grade
2.3 Quartile Tenure Analysis
2.4 Employee Counts by Department
2.5 Employee Survey Results
2.6 Summary
When reviewing this chapter, it is important to recognize this information reflects the
conditions when the study began and should be considered a snapshot in time. Conducting
an overall review of the County’s Public Safety’s current compensation structure,
philosophies, and employee demographics, was instrumental in providing Evergreen with a
better understanding of the structures and methods the County currently has in place. Our
review helped to identify any issues that may require further review and potential revision. The
results of this evaluation were considered during the analysis of internal equity and peer
market data. Subsequently, appropriate compensation related recommendations were
developed for the County’s Public Safety departments and are described later in this report.
2.1 PAY PLAN ANALYSIS
Three open range pay plans were administered by the County. As reflected in Exhibits 2A –
2C, the minimum, midpoint, and maximum salaries of each grade are shown. The pay plans
consisted of 23 total grades for 1,258 employees. Range spread is a measurement of the
width of a pay grade range and is defined as the percentage difference between the minimum
and the maximum of a pay grade, relative to the grade minimum. Each pay grade within the
plans had a range spread ranging from 66 percent to 73 percent, with the exception of Grade
PO which has a set amount without a range due it being dedicated to recruits.

2.2 EMPLOYEE SALARY PLACEMENT BY GRADE
An important factor to consider is the analyses of where employees’ salaries fell within each
pay range when assessing the effectiveness of the County’s Public Safety pay plans, its
administration and application or practices. It is equally important to determine where there
may have been clusters of employees’ salaries within the current pay plans, illuminating
potential pay progression concerns. Of note, employees’ salaries, and the progression of the
salaries, are associated with an organization’s compensation philosophy—specifically, the
method of salary progression, merit pay and the availability of resources. Therefore, the
placement of employees’ salaries should be viewed in this context.
Exhibits 2D – 2F illustrate the placement of employees’ salaries relative to pay grade
minimums and maximums and contain the following:
the pay grades,
the number of employees in classifications assigned to the pay grade,
the number and percentage of employees with salaries below the minimum,
the number and percentage of employees with salaries at the minimum,
the number and percentage of employees with salaries at the maximum, and
the number and percentage of employees with salaries above the maximum.

Typically, employees with salaries at the grade minimum are new hires or new to the
classification and following a recent promotion; also, employees with salaries at the grade
maximum are typically highly experienced and proficient in the classification. As Exhibits 2D
– 2F illustrate, at the time of this study, there was a total of five employees with a salary below
their position’s grade minimum (with 265 employees at the minimum). There were also 12
total employees with a salary above their position’s grade maximum.
Exhibits 2G – 2I illustrate the placement of employees’ salaries relative to pay grade
midpoints. The exhibits contain the following:
the pay grades,
the number of employees in classifications assigned to the pay grade,
the number and percentage of employees with salaries below the midpoint,
the number and percentage of employees with salaries near the midpoint (within five

SHERIFF EMPLOYEES
SALARY PLACEMENT AROUND MIDPOINT BY GRADE
Source: Created by Evergreen Solutions from data provided by the County as of February 2020.
Employees with salaries close to the midpoint of a pay range should be fully proficient in their
classification and require minimal supervision to complete their job duties while performing
satisfactorily. Therefore, it is important to examine the percentage and number of employees
with salaries above and below the calculated midpoint. Of the 1,258 employees within the
County’s Public Safety pay plans, 1,061 total employees (84.3 percent) had salaries below
the midpoint of their respective range, 148 employees (11.8 percent) had salaries near the
midpoint (defined as within five percent of either side of the midpoint), while 49 employees
(3.9 percent) had salaries above the midpoint range.
2.3 SALARY QUARTILE ANALYSIS
The quartile analysis section provides an additional analysis of the distribution of employees’
salaries across the pay grades at the time of this study. Examining employee salary placement
by grade quartile provided insight into whether clustering of employees’ salaries existed within
each pay grade. For this analysis, employees’ salaries were slotted within one of four equal
distributions. The first quartile (0-25) represents the lowest 25 percent of the pay range. The
second quartile (26-50) represents the segment of the pay range above the first quartile up
to the pay range’s midpoint. The third quartile (51-75) represents the part of the pay range
above the midpoint up to the 75th percentile of the pay range. The fourth quartile (76-100) is
the highest 25 percent of the pay range. This analytical method provided an opportunity to
assess how employees’ salaries are disbursed throughout each grade (pay range).
The quartile analysis is used to determine the location of employee salary clusters. Quartile
analysis helps identify whether clusters exist in specific quartiles of pay grades. Additionally,
the amount of time the employee has spent at the organization is also analyzed, in order to
observe any relationship between organizational tenure and salary progression. This
information, while not definitive alone, can shed light on any root issues within the current

compensation and classification plan when combined with market data and employee
feedback.
Of note, tenure alone is not a determinant of employee’s compensation, other variables such
as merit pay influence employee’s compensation.
According to the United States Merit Systems Protection Board, the growing customer
expectations for delivery of efficient and effective public services are driving government
agencies around the nation to better align pay with performance and create organizational
cultures that emphasize performance over tenure.
Exhibits 2J – 2L provide a breakdown of placement of employees’ salaries relative to salary
quartile and provide the following:
the pay grades,
the number of employees per pay grade,
the counts of the employees by quartile within each grade, and
the average total tenure by quartile within each grade.
The County’s employees’ salaries were overall clustered in the first two quartiles of their pay
range. In order of employee concentration, 905 employees (71.9 percent) had salaries in the
first quartile of their respective pay ranges, 249 (19.8 percent) in the second quartile, 73
employees (5.8 percent) in the third quartile and 31 employees (2.5 percent) in the fourth
quartile. This distribution leads to a conclusion that significant compression has occurred over
time at the County. Data for average tenure do lead to determinations on the relationship
between tenure and salary.
It is common for the overall average tenure to increase as quartile increases and is the case
for Chesterfield County Public Safety employees. The average tenure in Quartile 1 is 8.5 years
for Fire, 4.8 years for Police, and 7.2 years for Sheriff employees. The average tenure in
Quartile 2 is 20.3 years for Fire, 15.8 years for Police, and 18.3 years for Sheriff employees.
The average tenure in Quartile 3 is 29.1 years for Fire, 23.3 years for Police, and 26.3 years
for Sheriff employees. Finally, the average tenure in Quartile 4 is 33.9 years for Fire, 20.0
years for Police, and 3.6 years for Sheriff employees. Even though the employees are
clustered in the first two quartiles, there is a general positive linear relationship between
tenure and pay, with the main exception of the 4th quartile for Sheriff employees, which is only
reflective of one employee with a lesser tenure than many others.

2.5 EMPLOYEE SURVEY RESULTS
As part of the process of assessing the current state of compensation in the County’s public
safety departments, Evergreen also surveyed employees for perceptional feedback on a
variety of topics related to the compensation and classifications structure currently in place.
Below is a summary of the questions asked of employees, and a summary of the employee
responses. Questions varied in format, with some asking for employee satisfaction in the form
of agreement or disagreement with a phrase, while others asked employees to rank concerns
in order of importance. A total of 629 employees participated in the survey from the public
safety departments.
Department Employees Classes % of Total
Fire 480 7 38%

Of the respondent employees, a total of 422 (68.4 percent) were frontline ranks from their
respective departments (Firefighters, Officers, Deputies). A total of 153 (24.8 percent) and 42
(6.8) percent were from frontline supervisory staff and command staff respectively.
Additionally, employees were asked to identify their experience level with the County’s public
safety department they belonged to. The largest demographic, at roughly a quarter of the
employees, reported they had been with their respective department for five or less years;
however, there was strong representation from employees of all experience levels,
understanding that employees with highest volumes of experience are less common.

submitted (those that selected other), a fair number of the submissions pertained to
compression as well.
Evergreen included several engagement questions in the compensation survey, but in
addition to conducting this survey, Evergreen has reviewed the most recent Chesterfield
County Employee Engagement surveys of the County’s public safety departments and were
able to draw some comparisons from the County’s survey and the one conducted by
Evergreen. The Engagement survey is conducted by the County every three years. Those
commonalities include questions regarding employee satisfaction with a number of areas of
employment such as career pathing, work environment, overall positives of working with the
County. The results of both surveys overall suggest that public safety employees enjoy working
for the county but that compensation/compression are primary concerns for the majority of
this segment of the workforce. For a full review of the survey conducted by Evergreen, along
with the results, please see Appendix 2 in this report. In addition, the results from the
Engagement Survey conducted by the County of the three public safety departments is
attached also.
2.6 SUMMARY
Chesterfield County Public Safety’s overall compensation structure offered a firm foundation
on which to improve. The key points of the current structure were:
There are three open-range pay plans for Fire, Police, and Sheriff employees; in
contrast to a step plan where employees’ salaries would be moved within the pay plan
in steps based on the time an employee has worked for the County or time in their
current position. The County’s current pay plans include 1,258 employees employed
by the County as of the time of this report.
Best practices in Human Resources suggest that range spreads are generally
recommended to be between 50-70 percent, the Minimum of the pay grade to the
Maximum of the pay range. Range spreads present in the County are between 66
percent and 73 percent.
Within this study, there is a significant number (84.3 percent) of employees’ salaries
that are currently considered to be clustered below the midpoint of the salary range;
with the overwhelming majority of employees in the first quartile of the salary range.
This significant clustering of salaries at the beginning of the salary range, combined
with the longer average tenure of employees indicates the County’s public safety pay
plans are experiencing a large degree of pay compression.
This finding aligns with the perceptional feedback provided by employees via the
employee survey, where compression was identified as the most pressing
compensation concern for employees.

Chapter 2 - Assessment of Current Conditions Classification and Compensation Study and
Pay Plan Development for Public Safety for Chesterfield County, VA
Evergreen Solutions, LLC Page 2-22
Overall, the current open-range structures have allowed for significant compression to
occur at the lower end of the pay ranges; this can be attributed to a number of causes,
but from strictly looking at the County’s structure, the open-ranges have not allowed
the County to easily identify pay compression that has occurred because there is no
element of service time tied into the open-range to provide that context.
The County’s Public Safety departments’ current compensation plans provided their
employees with a pay structure. Evergreen found there is evidence of clustering of employees’
salaries that has occurred over time.
In the following chapters of this report, Evergreen will provide specific information to explain
how the information gained from the review of current compensation conditions, in addition
to the market salary data analysis, and along with the review of internal equity helped us to
develop recommendations for a competitive compensation plan. The objective is to provide
analysis and recommendations that will best align the County’s Public Safety departments’
current compensation foundation with its compensation philosophy. These recommendations
are provided in Chapter 4 of the County’s Classification and Compensation Study and Pay Plan
Development for Public Safety report.

The best and most direct method of determining an organization's position relative to the
market is through comparisons of the market. Market comparisons focus on the average of
the market and range characteristics. This allows the market data to be used to evaluate an
organization’s entire structure including overall market competitiveness, ranges, and
minimum and maximums of the pay plan at the current point in time.
The market comparison analysis presented below should be considered a snapshot of the
current market conditions. In essence, this means that the market conditions will continue to
change, and in some cases can change rapidly; while market surveys are important and useful
in making updates to a compensation structure, they must be completed at regular intervals
to ensure the organization remains current with the market.
Evergreen Solutions conducted a comprehensive market salary survey for the County’s public
safety classifications. As part of this survey, Evergreen Solutions collected pay range and pay
structure information (such as number of steps, career development plan systems, etc.),
actual pay distributions, and supplemental pay data from peer organizations in the County’s
competitive market utilizing a survey tool. The salary survey contained benchmark
classifications that were selected as a representative of the County’s Fire, Police, and Sheriff
public safety positions. Benchmark classifications are designed to be a cross-section of the
County’s positions, and vary by department, pay grade, and work area and level to ensure they
are representative of the overall County’s public safety. A total of 40 classifications were
surveyed for each market peer.
When seeking to compare the County to its peers, a number of factors were taken into
account, such as geographic location, relative population size, and departmental sizes. A list
of 24 survey targets was developed and approved by the County prior to commencing the
survey. Of the total, 19 organizations were able to provide salary data for the purpose of the
survey. The list of participant organizations is shown in Exhibit 3-1.
It is additionally important to note that while competitors were selected for a number of like
factors, not every peer shared the same operational services with the County with respect to
their specific departments. For instances, not all fire departments necessarily possessed fire
suppression services as well as emergency medical services, and sheriff’s offices varied in
providing both law enforcement and detention services versus strictly detention services.

PARTICIPANT ORGANIZATIONS
As many of the peer organizations are located outside of the County’s immediate region, it
was necessary to adjust the peer responses relative to the County based on cost of living. For
any peer organization that fell outside the County’s immediate region, a cost-of-living
adjustment was applied to the reported pay ranges to ensure a market average was attained
in terms of the spending power an employee would have in the County. The cost-of-living index
information utilized came from the Council for Community and Economic Research. The cost
of living index figures for the County and each of the respondent market peers are located in
Exhibit 3-2.

3.1 MARKET DATA
The results of the market analysis are displayed in Exhibits 3-3, 3-4, and 3-5, which include
the benchmark job titles and the market average salaries for each position at the minimum,
midpoint, and maximum points of the pay ranges. Also included within the exhibits are the
percent differentials of the County’s pay ranges at each respective point, relative to the market
average pay. A positive percent differential is indicative of the County’s pay range exceeding
that of the average of its market peers; alternatively, a negative percent differential indicates
the County’s compensation for a given position lagging behind the average of its peers. The
exhibits also include the average pay range for the market respondents for each position, as
well as how many responses each benchmark received. Additional data related to pay
additives and supplements were also collected from peer respondents; this information has
been provided to the County under separate cover.
Page 38 of 394
Chapter 3 – Market Survey Results Classification and Compensation Study and
Pay Plan Development for Public Safety for Chesterfield County, VA
Evergreen Solutions, LLC Page 3-4
While all benchmarks are surveyed by each peer, not every peer organization possesses an
appropriate match to supply salary information for. Consequently, the benchmarks receive
varying levels of response. Due to some of the classifications for the Fire, Police, and Sheriff
departments at the County having multiple levels, direct market comparisons could not be
drawn for all benchmarks. Depending on the classification, the functions provided in the job
descriptions were performed across less classifications at the peer organizations. The
rationale behind some positions being excluded in the summary of results is that insufficient
responses can lead to unreliable averages that may skew the aggregated data, blurring the
reality of the County’s actual position in the market. Of the 40 positions surveyed, 28 positions
surveyed had a sufficient response for inclusion. It should also be noted that Paramedic-
specific matches were not collected for Fire positions in order to not skew data. Paramedic
pay was collected as an incentive and is addressed later in this chapter.
An additional comparative analysis was performed in which the highest compensating locality
that responded on each benchmark was removed and the averages and market differential
recalculated. The results of removing the highest outlier are shown on Exhibits 3-6 through 3-
8.

Market Range Minimums
A typical starting point when analyzing the market survey information is comparing the
County’s market minimums to the market. This is because market minimums are most
often representative of entry level salaries for employees who have the minimum
qualifications of a classification. Incumbents usually do not have the required knowledge
and experience required to be fully proficient in their position. When reviewing the data,
several conclusions can be drawn:
For Fire benchmarks, the County was competitive at the minimum with an
organizational average of 9.4 percent above market.
For Police benchmarks, the County was slightly competitive at the minimum with
an organizational average of 2.2 percent above market.
For Sheriff benchmarks, the County was slightly less than competitive at the
minimum with an organizational average of 3.8 percent below market.
Market Range Midpoints
This section explores the comparison between the average peer midpoints and the
midpoints for classifications at the County. Market midpoints are important to consider
because they are commonly recognized as the salary point at which employees have
achieved full proficiency, and are performing satisfactorily in their classification. As such,
midpoint is often considered as the salary point at which a fully proficient employee could
expect their salary to be placed. Based on the collected data, the following observations
can be made:
For Fire benchmarks, the County’s position when compared to the market midpoint
was 10.9% above the market.
For Police benchmarks, the County’s position for the midpoint was 1.9 percent
above market.
For Sheriff benchmarks, the County’s position for the midpoint was 2.4 percent
below the market.

Evergreen Solutions, LLC Page 3-8
Market Range Maximums
In this section, the peer salary range maximums are compared to the County’s range
maximums for each benchmarked classification. The market maximum is significant as it
represents the upper limit salary that an organization might provide to retain and/or
reward experienced and high performing incumbents. Based on the collected data, the
following observations can be made:
For Fire benchmarks, the County was competitive at the minimum with an
organizational average of 11.7 percent above market.
For Police benchmarks, the County was slightly competitive at the minimum with
an organizational average of 2.0 percent above market.
For Sheriff benchmarks, the County was slightly less than competitive at the
minimum with an organizational average of 1.5 percent below market.
Market Actual Salaries
The results of the market analysis includes data collected on average actual salaries for a
few of the lower-level benchmarks in each department. The preceding market charts depict
only salary range comparisons between the County and the market average. Exhibits 3-9
through 3-14 reflect average actual salaries of the market versus the County’s actual
salary. The data collection included information on organizational tenure in addition to the
actual salaries so that Evergreen could compare how well the County’s salaries progress
in comparison with the market. Exhibits 3-9 through 3-14 illustrate these comparisons for
various benchmark classifications. Each exhibit shows the tiers of tenure and the
corresponding salary data.

MARKET AVERAGE ACTUAL SALARIES – SHERIFF SERGEANT
As seen in the exhibits above, the County was found to be generally behind its peers with
respect to average actual salaries for the first two levels of each department (not counting
Recruit). This finding would lead to the conclusion that although the County has
implemented competitive ranges for two out of the three departments, the County has
generally not progressed salaries as well as market peers.
Incentives
Furthermore, information on incentives provided by peer organizations was collected to
supplement the pay range and actual salary data. Possible incentive offerings included
but were not limited to shift differential, Fire specialty teams (i.e. HazMat or SCUBA),
Advanced Life Support, Paramedic Certification, and education incentives. Responses
were diverse, as results varied by hourly additions, percentage-based additions, and
annual lump sums. Incentives findings are summarized below:
Shift differential ranged from $0.70 to $1.19 hourly.
Field Training Officer/Preceptor varied between 3% of salary, approximately $1.34
hourly addition or overtime pay, and a $2,000 annual lump sum.
Fire Specialty Teams varied between 3% of salary, $1.38 hourly addition, and
$1,500 to $2,500 annual lump sum.

Bilingual varied between $0.68 hourly addition and $1,000 to $1,770 annual lump
sum.
While pay supplement practices for ALS varied; most peers had an annual
supplement that varied between $4,300 to $15,000 with most peers providing a
supplement between $5,000 and $7,000. Additionally, some peers leveraged
hourly rate differentials in the range of $2.00 per hour to $3.50 per hour.
Education incentives varied between $500 to $660 for an Associate’s degree and
$1,000 to $1,500 for a Bachelor’s degree annually. On a percentage of salary
basis, 1.5% was offered for an Associate’s degree, 3% for Bachelor’s, 4.5% for
Master’s, and 6% for PhD.
K9 incentives varied between 5% of salary, one extra hour for days off, and $80 per
pay period.
Marine Patrol was offered by one peer as 3% of salary.
Detention positions incentives was offered by one peer as $1.25 hourly addition for
training staff.
3.2 MARKET SURVEY CONCLUSION
Based on the findings of the market survey, the following major conclusions can be drawn
regarding the County’s competitive position to the market average:
The County’s pay plans were ahead of the market at the minimum, midpoint, and
maximum for Fire and Police classifications, and below market for Sheriff
classifications.
However; this is directly contrasted by the average actual salary comparison, which
showed the County behind the market by and large.
The furthest behind classifications among all three departments were the
Detective, Detective (First Class), and Detective (Senior).
The most competitive classifications among all three departments were within the
Fire benchmarks, at the Captain rank through the Deputy Fire Chief.
Range spreads at the County were found to be slightly higher than the market
average, as the Survey Average Range Width among all three departments ranged
from approximately 67 to 69 percent.
Overall, the County’s largely competitive ranges, when contrasted against average
actual salaries at the County lagging its peers, speaks to the issue of the County
lacking the salary progression that has occurred at other peer organizations.

After reviewing the information collected over the course of the study, Evergreen developed
recommendations to improve the County’s current compensation system. The
recommendations, as well as the findings that led to each recommendation, are discussed in
detail in this section. The recommendations are organized into two sections: compensation
and administration of the system.
4.1 COMPENSATION RECOMMENDATIONS
The compensation analysis consisted of two parts: an external market assessment and an
internal equity assessment. During the external market assessment, the County’s
compensation for selected benchmark classifications was compared to average
compensation offered in the market the County competes for employees in. The external
assessment consisted of comparing the County against its peer institutions and organizations
within its market.
During the internal equity assessment, consideration of the relationships between and the
type of work being performed by the County’s employees in their classifications was reviewed.
Specifically, Position Description Questionnaires (PDQs) for each of the County’s public safety
classifications in the study were provided to Evergreen, which quantified the classifications’
level of five separate compensatory factors.
FINDING
Evergreen found that the overall design of the plan, while well-conceived from an internal
equity standpoint places the County at a disadvantage compared to its peers. Specifically,
most county level public safety functions within Virginia utilize a step-based method of
compensation management and provide regular increases. As a result, the County while being
generally competitive with its range structure or earning potential falls short of its peers in
actual compensation when considering tenure of actual incumbents. Furthermore, the
County’s current open range structured has failed to prevent widespread compression in its
public safety pay plans; while it is possible to address compression in open range structures,
the discreet nature of a step plan can be particularly helpful in determining an ordinally correct
salary placement of employee salaries relative to their experience.
RECOMMENDATION 1: Revise the current salary ranges, and adopt a new, step-based pay
plan for the Fire, Police, and Sheriff departments; and slot all classifications into their
respective pay plans.

Chapter 4 – Recommendation Classification and Compensation Study and
Pay Plan Development for Public Safety for Chesterfield County, VA
Evergreen Solutions, LLC Page 4-2
Evergreen has developed a new pay structure for the existing public safety classifications
based on the market data and peer practices. The updated pay structures can be found in
Exhibits 4-1, 4-2, and 4-3. The exhibits are also reflective of starting salaries for higher
positions at higher starting steps. This was designed to be realistic with requirements on years
of experience at each position and to reduce rank compression between reporting
relationships. Currently, the County’s public safety salary ranges averaged a rank amongst its
market peers in the 57th percentile, 58th percentile, and 58th percentile for its minimums,
midpoints, and maximums respectively. Should the County adopt the step plans as proposed,
the County’s market position ranking would improve to the 68th percentile, 67th percentile,
and 69th percentile for its minimums, midpoints, and maximums, respectively.
Implementation of the new compensation structure requires two steps. First, all positions
were assigned to an appropriate pay grade within the overall plan. To determine what pay
grade each position was assigned, Evergreen used the following factors: the results of the
PDQ review and the results of the market analysis. Assigning pay grades to classifications
requires a balance of internal equity and desired market position, and recruitment and
retention concerns also played a role in the process. Thus, the market results discussed in
Chapter 3 were not the sole criteria for the proposed pay ranges. The second step involves
placing individual employees on the appropriate step.
RECOMMENDATION 2: Evergreen recommends the County adopt a methodology to transition
employee salaries into the proposed pay plan that aligns with its established compensation
philosophy and the availability of resources.
While placing employees into the appropriate grade ensures that the incumbent possesses
the correct earning potential based on the market, placement within the grade ensures that
the incumbent is recognized for his or her knowledge, experience, and contribution to the
organization. This step can be done via a variety of methods, each with their own strengths
and drawbacks. After discussion with County leadership, Evergreen has presented the
following options that the County should consider for implementation:
Bring to Minimum
This option ensures that all employees at the County are placed into their new pay grades, but
does not make any other adjustments. If an employee was reassigned to a higher pay grade
this implementation option would run a check to ensure the employee was making at least
the minimum of the new pay range. If the employee is above the minimum, there is no change
to his or her salary. If an employee is making less than their new minimum, they would be
realigned to set their new salary equal to their pay grade minimum. The estimated cost for
this adjustment is $599,363 affecting a total of 308 employees.

Tenure-Based Percentage Increases
Percentage adjustments are given to all employees based on their total tenure. Larger
percentages are attributed to higher tiers of tenure in order to directly address pay
compression between new hires (Exhibit 4-4).
EXHIBIT 4-4
TIERED INCREASES BASED ON TENURE
TENURE INCREASE
LESS THAN 5 YEARS 3%
5-10 YEARS 4%
11-15 YEARS 5%
16-20 YEARS 6%
21-25 YEARS 7%
26+ YEARS 8%
The estimated salary-only cost for this adjustment is $4,432,116.90 affecting a total of 1,237
employees. The estimated total cost (when accounting for benefits-related costs) is
$5,877,873.43.
Total Tenure Parity
A calculation is performed where each year of total tenure directly correlates with the step
number. Salaries are then placed at those amounts. Salaries above these parity amounts
are simply brought up to the nearest step salary. The estimated salary-only cost for this
adjustment is $12,446,385.85 affecting a total of 1,157 employees. The estimated total cost,
including benefits, is $16,506,396.91.
While the best implementation strategy would be to fully implement the recommendations
during the same fiscal year, most public organizations adopt phased approaches to
addressing their needs due to resource availability and competing needs. With this in mind,
Evergreen worked with the County project team to examine several different implementation
strategies. The implementation strategy identified to best meet the County’s needs includes
two phases:
Phase 1: Maintain the current open range structure and increase compensation by a
tenure-based percentage increases, in order to mitigate some of the range
compression present in the current structure.
Phase 2: Implement the step plan, assign all incumbents to the appropriate step based
on total tenure parity.
The total cost to implement phases 1 and 2 (accounting for salary & benefits) is
$22,384,270.34.

Chapter 4 – Recommendation Classification and Compensation Study and
Pay Plan Development for Public Safety for Chesterfield County, VA
Evergreen Solutions, LLC Page 4-5
By first instituting tenure-based increase, the County will create some initial spacing between
employees who may be clustered in salary but vary significantly in experience level.
Furthermore, by performing this adoption in two phases, the County reduces the volume of
expenditure in a single year needed to implement the proposed step structures. The second
phase of adoption will help alleviate the pay compression that has built up in the lower
portions of the salary ranges. By placing assigning employees to steps that correlate with their
experience level, the County will rectify longstanding issues with employees with less
experience earning highly similar or the same salary as those who have considerable
experience with the County.
A full cost-breakdown by department and rank-level is shown in Exhibit 4-5:

4.2 COMPENSATION AND CLASSIFICATION SYSTEM ADMINISTRATION
Any organization’s compensation system will need periodic maintenance. The
recommendations provided in this chapter were developed based on conditions at the time
the analysis was conducted. Without proper upkeep of the system, the potential for
recruitment and retention issues may increase as the compensation system becomes dated
and less competitive.
RECOMMENDATION 3: Conduct small-scale salary surveys on a regular basis to assess the
market competitiveness of all public safety positions, and make adjustments to pay grade
assignments, if necessary.
The public safety market operates in a more dynamic fashion than many other public
occupational groups. The level of competition and sensitivity of the workforce to changes in
the market requires that a competitive organization regularly collect and analyze peer data
and practices. The County’s human resource function should collect peer compensation data
on an annual basis to determine market position and to utilize for planning purposes.
RECOMMENDATION 4: Conduct a comprehensive classification and compensation analysis
every five to seven years.
While small-scale salary surveys can improve the market position of specific classifications, it
is recommended that a full classification and compensation analysis be conducted every five
to seven years to preserve both internal and external equity for the County. Changes to
classification and compensation do occur, and while the increments of change may seem
minor, they can compound over time. A failure to react to these changes quickly has the
potential to place the County in a poor position for recruiting and retaining quality employees.
While the previous two recommendations intend to maintain the competitiveness over time
of the classification and compensation structure as a whole, it is also necessary to establish
procedures for determining equitable pay practices for individual employees.
RECOMMENDATION 5: Adopt a philosophical approach to adjusting the new step-based
structures on an annual basis.
While adopting the step plans and re-aligning employee salaries based on experience will go
a long way towards resolving the current compression issues that hinder the County,
compensation structures by their nature become out of date naturally as other organizations
shifts their rates to remain competitive with the overall market. As a result, the County will
need to develop a defined review methodology for assessing the upcoming or anticipated
market movement in any given year in order to establish the amount by which the County
should adjust its own step plans. A few examples include –
An annual small-scale survey of the peer organizations for their newest rates for each rank or
a subset of ranks
An annual survey of peer organizations attaining the anticipated compensation structure
percentage movements
Page 55 of 394
Chapter 4 – Recommendation Classification and Compensation Study and
Pay Plan Development for Public Safety for Chesterfield County, VA
Evergreen Solutions, LLC Page 4-8
Tying the adjustment of the plans to a reliable and easy to follow metric such as the change in
local CPI.
A combination or hybrid of the above approaches
While the County may not be able to financially support moving the plans every year,
measuring the movement of the market by some capacity is crucial even in years where
adjustments cannot be made in order to monitor the competitive standing of the County’s
ranges for public safety.
RECOMMENDATION 6: Revise policies and practices for moving employees’ salaries through
the pay plan, including procedures for determining salaries of newly hired employees and
employees who have been promoted, demoted, or transferred to a different classification.
The method of moving salaries through the pay plan and setting new salaries for new hires,
promotions, demotions, and transfers depends largely on an organization’s compensation
philosophy. However, it is important for the County to have established guidelines for each of
these situations, and that they are followed consistently for all employees.
New Hires
A new employee’s starting salary largely depends on the amount of education and experience
the employee possesses beyond the minimum requirements for the job. Typically, an
employee holding only the minimum education and experience requirements for a
classification is hired at or near the classification’s pay grade minimum or the first step. An
upper limit to the percentage above minimum that can be offered to a new employee with only
the minimum requirements should be established, where approval is needed to offer a
starting salary that is a higher percentage above minimum. Another threshold should be
established as the maximum starting salary possible without approval for new employees with
considerable experience and/or education above the requirements for the position. It is
common for the midpoint to be used as the maximum starting salary for most classifications.
Once the County has performed the initial implementation adjustment for current employee
salaries, new employee starting salaries should take into consideration internal equity,
meaning that new hires should be offered comparable salaries (step placement) to existing
employees in the classification with similar levels of education and experience.
Promotions/Demotions
When an employee is promoted to a new classification, it is important to have guidelines for
calculating the employee’s new salary that rewards the employee for his or her new
responsibilities, moves the salary into the new pay grade, and ensures internal equity in the
new classification. It is common for organizations to establish a minimum percentage salary
increase that depends on the increase in pay grade as a result of the promotion. Regardless
of the minimum percent increase, the employee’s new salary should be within the new pay
grade’s range, and internal equity of salaries within the classification should be preserved.

Chapter 4 – Recommendation Classification and Compensation Study and
Pay Plan Development for Public Safety for Chesterfield County, VA
Evergreen Solutions, LLC Page 4-9
Transfers
An employee transfer occurs when an employee is reassigned to a classification at the same
pay grade as his or her current classification or when an employee’s classification stays the
same, but his or her department changes. In either of these cases, it is likely that no
adjustment is necessary to the employee’s salary. The only situation in which a salary
adjustment would be needed for a transferred employee would be if his or her current salary
is not aligned with the salaries of employees in the new classification or department. If that
occurs, it may be necessary to adjust the salary of the employee or the incumbents of the
classification to ensure salary equity within the new classification.
4.3 SUMMARY
The County should be commended for its desire and commitment to provide competitive and
fair compensation for its employees. The recommendations in this report establish a new
competitive pay plan, externally and internally equitable pay grade assignments, and system
administration practices that will provide the County with a responsive compensation system.
While the upkeep of this recommended system will require concrete effort, the County will find
that having a competitive compensation system that encourages strong recruitment and
employee retention is worth this commitment.

•The market positioning varied by
agency.
•The County’s ranges are generally
positioned well to the market average.
•However, average actual salaries were
not as competitive.
•The County’s compensation structure
design varied from peer practices.
•A number of peers leverage step-based
approaches, designed to be competitive
for recruitment.
Page 81 of 394

Key Recommendations
•Adopt step structures for all three
employee groups.
•Step structures all consist of 25 steps.
•3% increases between steps 1-7.
•2% increases between steps 8-25.
•More aggressive approach to remain
competitive earlier in career.
•Range spreads consisted of a 71%
width.
•Designated starting steps for supervisory
ranks, aligned with promotional practices.
•Salary range rates adjusted to balance
distance to market and structure design.
Page 82 of 394

Career Development Integration
With Step Plan
•Employees move horizontally along the structure for each step.
•Vertical movement requires progression through career development plan
(CDP).
•Employees receive step increase each fiscal year.
•CDPs require both time in position and the required training and performance.
•Each CDP level is a new title in the structure.
(Only a portion of the chart shown for illustrative purposes.)
Page 83 of 394
9
Implementation
•To adopt the new step structures, Evergreen is
proposing a phased approach -
•Phase 1: Perform salary percent increases
that scale with tenure (between 3-8%
increases).
•Phase 2: Perform a tenure-parity adjustment.
•A tenure-parity consists of placing employees
on a step that corresponds with the total tenure
with their respective agency.
Phase 1 Phase 2 Total

Monthly Report on District Improvement Funds
Report Date: October 28, 2020
Prepared By: Budget and Management
The County annually budgets $33,500 in discretionary funds, referred to as District Improvement Funds
(DIF), for each of the five magisterial districts that are used to improve the quality of life in each
district. The DIF allocations can be used for public improvements, purchase of county-owned
equipment, public events or programs, public school programs, and other legally allowable expenses.
In addition, if funds remain in DIF accounts at the end of each fiscal year, up to $37,500 may be
reserved per district at year-end to be utilized in a future year. On July 22, 2020, the Board authorized
a one-time waiver of the rollover cap on District Improvement Funds to make available in FY2021 funds
that were unable to be spent due to the COVID-19 pandemic. With approval of this report, the Board
consents to the use of available reserve balance, if needed.
This report shows the cumulative use of District Improvement Funds for FY2021 as well as the current
funding available for each district. Requests to use funds for the current month are detailed below and
listed as a proposed use on the summary chart for that district. Upon Board of Supervisors acceptance
of this report each month, staff will execute proposed DIF requests.
There are three DIF uses proposed this month. Acceptance of this report by the Board constitutes
Board approval of these requests.

Transfer up to $1,000 from the Clover Hill District Improvement Fund to the School Board to
purchase new band uniforms for the Clover Hill High School band. The Board can legally

School Board’s inventory of property. The purchase must be made by the School Board in

Transfer up to $7,000 from the Clover Hill District Improvement Fund to Community
Enhancement to purchase and plant Yoshino Cherry trees, Skip Laurel and construct a 50-foot

GRTC Transit System Board of Directors
Board Action Requested:
The Board is requested to nominate and appoint three directors to the GRTC

20, 2021, and to authorize the County Administrator or his designee to
appear at the GRTC annual meeting to vote for the directors appointed by
the Board and by the Richmond City Council.
Summary of Information:
GRTC is a publicly owned corporation which was formed to provide public
transportation services in the Richmond regional area. Chesterfield County
and the City of Richmond each own 50 percent of the GRTC as its two sole
shareholders. GRTC is governed by a six-member board of directors, three
appointed by the Chesterfield Board of Supervisors and three by the
Richmond City Council.
The terms for the county’s current GRTC Directors will expire on October
20, 2020. Accordingly, staff is recommending that Mr. Gary Armstrong, Mr.
Daniel K.Smith and Mr. Ian Millikan be reappointed to the board for new
one-year terms ending October 20, 2021.
Under the GRTC by-laws, the Board may reappoint the current directors to

appointed each year for one-year terms beginning in October. The Board is

Board of Directors.
Under the existing Rules of Procedure, appointments to boards and
Page 115 of 394

are voted on in the order in which they are nominated.
The GRTC Articles require the county and the City of Richmond, as GRTC’s
shareholders, to vote at the annual meeting for the three directors
appointed by the other jurisdiction. The Board should, therefore, also
authorize the County Administrator or his designee to appear at the annual
meeting and vote on behalf of the county for the GRTC Directors.

Subject:
Set Public Hearing to Consider Code Amendment Relative to Route 1 Residential Overlay and Northern
Jefferson Davis Highway Design District Development Standards (20PJ0119)
Board Action Requested:
Set November 18, 2020 for public hearing on the attached code amendment.
Summary of Information:
Following a public hearing, the Planning Commission by unanimous vote forwarded a recommendation of
approval on the attached code amendment.
Since the adoption of standards permitting multifamily and townhouse development within C-3 and C-5
districts along the Jefferson Davis Highway corridor there have been several inquiries seeking to utilize the
provisions. Hearing additional feedback regarding the needs of potential projects to successfully integrate this
higher density on relatively small infill lots staff undertook a review of certain standards. Among the changes
are a potential expansion in development depth, common area allotment, building design and balcony
provision. In addition, the proposed change to Sec. 19.1-378 is necessary as this deck parking provision was
incorrectly added to that section. The correct section, Sec.19.1-379. is being updated with the adjusted
provision to address allowance of residential uses.

Set Public Hearing Date to Consider the FY2021-FY2026 Central Virginia Transportation Authority
Improvement Plan and FY2021 Budget
Board Action Requested:
Set December 16, 2020, as the date to hold a public hearing to consider: FY2021-FY 2026 Central Virginia
Transportation Authority Improvement Plan and FY2021 Central Virginia Transportation Authority
Improvement Budget.
Summary of Information:
FY021-FY2026 CVTA Improvement Plan
The 2020 General Assembly legislation, House Bill 1541, created the Central Virginia Transportation
Authority (CVTA), allowing the Richmond region use specified tax revenues to fund transportation needs of
the region (Section 33.2-3700-3713 of the Code of Virginia):
The funds for the CVTA are generated through the following sources:
• Sales and use tax of 0.7 percent (revenue collection begins October 2020)
• Wholesale gas tax of 7.6 cents per gallon of gasoline and 7.7 cents per gallon of diesel fuel (revenue
collection began July 2020)
These tax generated funds are to be divided accordingly:
• 35% to the CVTA for regional transportation projects;
• 15% to the Greater Richmond Transit Company (GRTC) to provide transit and mobility services; and
• 50% distributed proportionally to each member locality for local projects which may include construction,
maintenance, or expansion of roads, sidewalks, trails, mobility services, or transit located in the locality.
Chesterfield County’s local CVTA revenue is projected between $20 million and $23 million per year, $133
million over a six-year period. The CVTA will oversee the distribution of member locality revenues and
confirm project eligibility. It is anticipated that funds will be distributed on a quarterly basis beginning in
January 2021. A summary of the proposed improvement plan is shown on Attachment A.
FY2021 CVTA Improvement Budget
The FY2021 budget reflects the first year of anticipated CVTA funding for Chesterfield County and identifies
Page 179 of 394
specific project allocations for the fiscal year. Projects shown in Attachment B are recommended for FY2021
CVTA funding.
Two weeks prior to the public hearing, the draft FY2021-FY 2026 Central Virginia Transportation Authority

Subject:
Initiate an Application for a Conditional Use to Permit the use of a Manufactured Home as a Sales Office and a
Conditional Use Planned Development to Permit Ordinance and Development Standards Exceptions on 1.3
Acres Located at 9900 Jefferson Davis Highway and 2611 Woodfin Drive.
Board Action Requested:
Initiate an application for a Conditional Use to permit the use of a manufactured home as a sales office, and
Conditional Use Planned Development to permit exception to Ordinance and Development Standards
requirements in a General Business (C-5) District on two lots, considered as one zoning lot of 1.3 acres,
identified as Tax IDs 794-667-4538 and 794-667-3427; appoint Andrew G. Gillies, Director of Planning, as the
agent for the Board; and waive disclosure requirements. (Attachment 1)
Summary of Information:
Mr. Ingle is requesting the Board initiate a conditional use and conditional use planned development to permit
a manufactured home to be used as a sales office associated with automobile sales on the premises. The sales
office (manufactured home) encroaches into 2611 Woodfin Drive; therefore, this request is being considered as
a zoning lot due to the location of the structure within the boundaries of these two properties. This site is
subject to Northern Jefferson Davis Highway Design Standards. It is anticipated the use of the manufactured
home as a sales office will be on a temporary basis.
Virginia law permits the Board of Supervisors to initiate a rezoning application on the principles of good
zoning practice and general welfare to consider land uses that are not permitted under current zoning
regulations. Consideration of this request will provide for a public process to review and determine if any
adverse impacts would be generated on the property(s), on adjacent property owners, or the County in general
and, if so, to determine what conditions might alleviate any adverse impacts and enhance land use
compatibility.

Meeting Date: October 28, 2020 Item Number: 13.B.11.
Subject:
Approval of Youth Citizen Board Volunteer Process
Board Action Requested:
Summary of Information:
The Youth Citizen Board allows for appointments of youth in the County to serve for up to two years on the
Board. Historically the Board of Supervisors also appointed two adults from each district to also serve on the
Youth Citizen’s Board with the main purpose to support and facilitate the students. Citizen Information and
Resources is recommending rather than appointment that adults who want to serve on the Youth Citizen Board
apply through the County volunteer application process. By going through the process adults would be
required to have a background check and could potentially serve as facilitators to students for longer than three
years which would allow for consistency and mentorship. Currently as Board of Supervisor Appointees the
adults are not required to have a background check, therefore Citizen Information and Resources recommends
that this be approved to move to a volunteer application process for adults only. Students will continue to apply
and be appointed each year.

Memorandum
Date: September 16, 2020
To: The Honorable Members of the Board of Supervisors
From:Emily Ashley, Director
Subject: YOUTH CITIZEN BOARD UPDATE
The Youth Services division of Citizen Information and Resources (CIR) has reviewed the current
Youth Citizen Board (YCB) documents. With input from each of you as the Board of Supervisors, it was
determined that the following updates should be made to provide a more robust purpose for YCB that
would also allow for a more meaningful experience for the youth appointees.
1.More detailed role descriptions for student and adult participants (attached). This will provide a
clearer understanding and structure for applicants and appointees.
2.Adult participants will no longer be appointed for 3-year terms, they will be volunteers selected
by CIR. They will complete the typical volunteer application process including a background
check. These adults will serve as mentors and project leaders to the youth under the supervision
of the Community Engagement Coordinator – Youth Services. Those who would have otherwise
been appointed can volunteer for the adult role as it is critical to have adults assist in facilitation
of the students.
3.The YCB application will be updated to be more specific to youth and to provide a clearer
understanding of the applicant’s interest in and goals for service.
4.Design an education plan for the appointees beginning with the Chesterfield 101 course as
foundation and including increased interaction with the Board of Supervisors.
5.CIR will work with county departments to develop project plans to engage YCB members and
provide valuable youth input to the departments.
6.YCB members will make a presentation each Spring to the Board of Supervisors to share the
outcomes and accomplishments from their annual project.
It is the goal of these updates that the YCB provides an experience that allows for youth to learn about
local government in their community while having the opportunity to have a voice in material that
impacts their peers. These changes also allow for the students to have an annual tangible product that
creates a forum for town hall meetings and a presentation to you, The Board of Supervisors each spring.
The Youth Services Division of CIR is looking forward to working with the Youth and County
Chesterfield County, Virginia

Appropriate Schools Coronavirus Aid, Relief, and Economic Security (CARES) Act Funding Through the
Governor's Emergency Education Relief (GEER) Set-Aside Fund and a Community Oriented Policing Services
(COPS) School Violence Prevention Program Grant
Board Action Requested:
Appropriate Schools Coronavirus Aid, Relief, and Economic Security (CARES) Act Funding through the
Governor's Emergency Education Relief (GEER) Set-Aside Fund in the amount of $682,265 and a $500,000
grant from the Community Oriented Policing Services (COPS) School Violence Prevention Program.
Summary of Information:
The Board is requested to appropriate $682,265 of CARES Act funding received through the GEER Set-Aside
Fund. This is funding provided by the CARES Act to state governors to expend on various types of education
at their discretion. Virginia allocated funds to K-12 and higher education, along with other educational
programs as designated by the governor’s office. Below are the individual award categories and a description
of what the funds will be used for:
Special Education Services and Supports - $227,704 - to purchase digital assessments and staff training for Speech and Psychology
SE Universal Screener - $156,046 - to purchase a social emotional assessment tool for use with all students
School Nutrition - $201,000 - to reimburse Food Services for non-budgeted costs of providing meals during the pandemic
VISION - $12,600 - to purchase hotspots and webcams to improve technology related to virtual learning
Cleaning Supplies - $47,425 - to reimburse the division for non-budgeted costs related to cleaning school facilities during the pandemic
Facilities Upgrade - $37,490- to reimburse the division for non-budgeted costs related to modifying school facilities to address needs
during the pandemic
Additionally, the Board is requested to appropriate $500,000 from a COPS School Violence Prevention Program grant received. This grant will
continue the work begun by the 2018 COPS School Violence Prevention Program grant. The funding will provide
increased student security by placing electronic access on doors of middle and high schools. The new locking
systems will discourage doors from being propped open, thus deterring unwanted visitors. The locks will also
allow first responders to more readily enter buildings during an emergency without having to wait for a key to
open the doors. The COPS grant requires a 25% match that will be funded through the school security CIP
funds.
These items were approved by the School Board on October 13, 2020. Staff recommends the Board of
Supervisors appropriate these amounts to Chesterfield County Public Schools. CCPS approval documents are

REQUEST
Conditional use to permit recreational equipment parking and storage in a Residential (R-12) District.
Notes:
A.Conditions may be imposed or the property owner may proffer conditions.
B. Conditions and Exhibit are located in Attachments 1 – 2.
SUMMARY
Continued parking of a recreational vehicle (Class C motorhome) within the side yard of a residential
lot is planned. The applicants do not plan to meet the Ordinance restriction that the recreational
vehicle be parked in the rear yard.
At the August 18, 2020 Planning Commission public hearing staff recommended denial of this request
as screening measures proposed by the applicant did not sufficiently mitigate visual impact from
adjacent neighbors and the right of way. The Planning Commission agreed with this recommendation
and sent this request to the Board of Supervisor with a unanimous recommendation of denial. On
September 23, 2020, the Board of Supervisors, after hearing input from the applicant, deferred this
case for 30 days with the applicant’s consent. This deferral allowed the applicant and staff additional
time identify any supplemental mitigation measures that could possibly be introduced to assist in
reducing the visual impact of the request. Staff met with the applicant on-site and the applicant
agreed to increase landscaping in the front yard on both sides of the existing driveway. Details of
the proposed additional landscaping are detailed in this report and added (Proffer Condition 5)
contained in Attachment 1. With the addition of site landscaping, staff is satisfied that the applicant
is mitigating the impacts on adjacent properties and the right of way. Staff is now able to support this
request.

Proposal
The applicant has been parking a single item of recreational equipment on the property since 2014
without the required zoning. The 30-foot Class C motorhome is currently parked on an asphalt
driveway within the front and side yard. In February 2020, the Planning Department received a
complaint relative to the parking of the recreational vehicle within the front and side yard of the
property. Figure 1, below, is taken at the time of complaint and shows the conditions on-site, in
February 2020.
Fig. 1 – Site at time of Code Compliance Complaint
The Zoning Ordinance permits the parking and storage of recreational equipment within a
residential district with certain restrictions:
No more than two (2) items of equipment permitted to be stored outside of an
enclosed building
Equipment is located in the rear yard with minimum setbacks from the rear (10 feet)
and side (5 feet) property lines
Except for repair, wheels on the equipment are not removed
Equipment is not used for living or commercial purposes; and,
Equipment is not connected to utility services.
These ordinance restrictions are designed to minimize impacts of larger vehicles and equipment on
area residential development and the streetscape. If any of these restrictions cannot be met, the
use may be allowed by conditional use.
Page 249 of 394
6 20SN0604-2020OCT28-BOS-RPT
The applicant’s recreational vehicle complies with the ordinance restrictions except that the vehicle
is parked within the side yard of the applicant’s driveway and does not meet the minimum side yard
setback of five (5) feet. Therefore, the applicant is seeking conditional use approval to permit
parking of the recreational equipment at their residence.
At the August 18, 2020 Planning Commission meeting, concern was expressed that the request
is the result of a complaint filed with code enforcement, and that proposed screening at that
time would not adequately screen the vehicle. Further, as the vehicle cannot be adequately
screened, the size, height, and location result in it being visible by adjacent properties and
vehicular traffic along Grizzard Drive. Based on these findings, the Commission was unable to
recommend approval of the case. Following the Board of Supervisor’s deferral of the request,
staff met with the applicant on site and has been able to work with the applicant on additional
screening measures that are detailed below and better mitigate the visual impact of the
Recreational Vehicle. Accordingly, staff is now able to support the request.
Screening Measures
Subsequent to the Board’s deferral on September 23, 2020 (and following the Planning
Commission’s action on this case), the applicant has proposed additional landscaping to further
mitigate the visual impact of the request. Specifically, the applicant has proffered a landscaping
condition providing for the installation of four (4) shrubs, similar in species to Leyland Cypress or
Oakland Holly along the driveway (two on each side) in order to better conceal the Recreational
Vehicle. The location of the proposed landscaping and specifications of plantings are contained in
Attachment 1 (Condition 5). Staff believes this landscaping will better screen the vehicle and
adequately mitigate views from the street and neighboring properties. As a result of this change
to the application, staff was able to change the recommendation from denial to approval.
Figure 2, below, is a conceptual rendering illustrating the intent of the additional landscaping, as
well as the proffered screening gate.

District
This is case 20SN0604, in the Dale District. Diana and Stephen are
requesting Conditional Use to permit recreational equipment parking and
storage in a Residential (R-12) District. More specifically, the applicant is
requesting to park a Class C motorhome, 30-feet in length, in a side yard.
On September 23, 2020, the Board of Supervisor’s deferred the case for 30
days to give the applicant and staff additional time to discuss any potential
further mitigation measures which may help to lessen the visual impact of
the Recreational Vehicle.

Initially, the applicant offered a condition to assist in screening, which
included an opaque screening fence, with gate, to be installed in front of the
vehicle. When the applicant addressed the Board at their September 23
meeting, the Board, by majority vote, chose to defer this case to tonight’s
hearing to allow the applicant more time to address the visual impacts of the
proposed parking location of the recreational vehicle. Since the Board’s
September meeting staff has met with the applicant, and the applicant is now
offering to add additional landscaping. Specifically, the applicant is offering
to plant 4 shrubs similar to Leyland Cypress or Holly’s, two on either side of
the driveway, a minimum of 5’ at planting, Staff believes that when the
plantings are mature, they will substantially reduce the visual impact.

Planning Commission and Staff
Recommended Denial at the Planning
Commission hearing August 18, 2020
Location where vehicle is parked has substantial visual
impact on adjacent neighbors and the streetscape
Screening measures proposed by applicant will not
sufficiently mitigate visual impact
Staff and CPC recommend denial
The located where the vehicle would be parked, though screened with a
fence, would still have substantial visual impact on adjoining neighbors.
The planning commission, with a unanimous vote, and staff recommend
denial of the request. As I stated earlier, the BOS deferred this case for 30
days to permit the applicant more time to mitigate these visual impacts just
discussed.

Staff Now Recommends Approval
New screening measures proposed will help to mitigate
visual impact
Parking location, with landscaping, reduces the sightline
from which the vehicle can be seen from the street
Since the Planning Commission public hearing, the applicant has offered to
provide additional landscaping on both sides of the driveway in the front
yard, in addition to the six foot fence in front of the RV. Therefore, with the
addition of the landscaping, combined with fence, staff is now able to change
our recommendation from denial, to approval of the request.

Proposal
The applicant has been parking a recreational vehicle (boat on a trailer) on the property since
February 2019. In October 2019, the Planning Department received a complaint relative to the
parking of a boat within the front yard, measuring approximately twenty-six (26) feet long, ten (10)
feet tall, and six (6) feet wide.
The Zoning Ordinance permits the parking and storage of recreational equipment within a
residential district with certain restrictions:
• No more than two (2) items of equipment permitted to be stored outside of an
enclosed building;
• Except for loading and unloading, equipment is located in a rear yard and set
back ten (10) feet from the rear property line and five (5) feet from the side
property line;
• Except for repair, wheels on the equipment are not removed;
• Equipment is not used for living or commercial purposes; and,
• Equipment is not connected to utility services.
These ordinance restrictions are designed to minimize impacts on area residential development
and the streetscape. If any of these restrictions cannot be met, the use may be allowed by
conditional use. The applicants’ recreational vehicle complies with the ordinance restrictions
except that the vehicle is parked within the front and side yards. The applicants are seeking
conditional use approval to permit parking and storage of the recreational vehicle in primarily the
side yard, with a portion of the trailer extending into the front yard.
Alternative Parking and Storage Location
Upon inspection of the property, staff observed the location of the boat on a trailer parked on a
paved driveway within the front yard. The applicant proposes to move the boat and trailer to a
new driveway area along the southwest side of the dwelling to minimize the view from the street
and other properties fronting the cul-de-sac (Exhibit A). The rear yard is currently fenced with a
single detached accessory building and play equipment. The side and rear yards slope downward
from the front of the house towards the rear property lines, where wetlands are found in adjoining
open space to the north. The change in topography within the rear yard makes it difficult to
construct a level parking area to store a recreational vehicle. Due to these existing site constraints,
there is no practical alternative location for on-site parking which would comply with the
Ordinance.
Page 269 of 394
5 20SN0572-2020OCT28-BOS-RPT
Recommended Conditions of Approval
The following conditions are recommended by staff to mitigate potential impacts on area
properties.
Recommended Conditions
Requirements Details
Non-Transferable Use limited to the applicants only.
Condition 1
Use
Limited to parking of one recreation vehicle (boat on a
trailer) no greater than twenty-six feet (26’) in length.
Condition 2
Location and Driveway Expansion
The recreational vehicle shall be parked within the front
and side yards (as depicted in Exhibit A), and no closer
than ten (10) feet to the rear property line and five (5)
feet to the corner side property line. Expansion to the
driveway shall be completed within sixty (60) days of
approval.
Condition 3
Screening
Plant evergreen plantings along the southern property
line, as depicted in Exhibit A. Landscaping plan and
schedule shall be completed within sixty (60) days of
approval.
Condition 4
The parking of the recreational vehicle within the rear yard is challenged by the change in
topography. Proposed evergreen landscaping and relocating the boat on a trailer to the side of
the dwelling will minimize its visual impact to adjoining property owners. Although the new
parking location beside the dwelling will have a small encroachment of the trailer hitch into the
front yard, the visual impact from Ethens Point Court will still be minimized with the proposed
plantings. For these reasons, staff supports this request.

Overview
Applicant has been parking recreational vehicle (boat) outside of rear property since February 2019, complaint in October 2019
Requesting to keep boat outside of rear yard
Mitigating impact by planting vegetation
Given topographical conditions of rear yard and plans to mitigate view of boat, staff is supportive of request
20SN0572
The applicants have been parking a boat outside of the rear yard of
their subject property since February 2019. In October 2019, the
planning department received a complaint about the parking of a boat
outside of the rear yard of the property. The applicants are seeking
conditional use to permit the parking of the boat in the side yard. The
rear yard is downward topography that will require extensive grading
to adequately park the boat in the rear yard. To mitigate the view of the
boat being parked in the side yard, the applicants are planning to plant
evergreen vegetation along the southern property line to provide year-
round screening of the boat from the adjacent property.

Recommend Approval
20SN0572
Sloping topography prevents adequate access to park the
boat on a trailer in compliance with ordinance restrictions
Proposed vegetation minimizes visibility of boat from
neighboring properties
As conditioned, impacts on adjacent residential
development will be minimized
Both the Planning Commission and Staff recommend
approval of this request. The topography in the rear
yard makes parking of the boat in the rear yard
impractical. The proposed vegetation along the
southern property line helps mitigate the view of the
boat from neighboring properties. As conditioned, the
impacts on adjacent residential development will be
minimized.

This is a view of the subject property and the boat that is
parked on the subject property. The applicants have
been parking the boat in their driveway since
February 2019. In October 2019, the Planning
Department received a complaint relative to parking of
a boat on the property outside of the rear yard. The
boat is approximately 26 feet long, 10 feet tall, and six
feet wide. The applicant is requesting to continue to
park the boat in the side and front yards of the subject
property. This is due to saturated soils in the rear
yard, which would require deep crushed stone for
pavement, as well as topography changes in the rear
yard requiring major grading improvements and the
construction of a retaining wall. Due to these
conditions, there is limited ability for on-site parking
which would comply with the ordinance.
Page 280 of 394
In order to mitigate the view of the boat from adjacent property
owners, the applicants are planning to plant vegetation on
the southern border of their property. The applicants plan to
plant evergreen trees along the boundary to provide year-
round screening of the boat. As depicted in the exhibit, the
boat would meet side yard setback requirements.

In order to mitigate the view of the boat from adjacent
property owners, the applicants are planning to
expand their driveway by paving in the gray areas on
this map, and plant vegetation on the southern border
of their property as shown in green. The applicants
plan to plant evergreen trees along the boundary to
provide year-round screening of the boat. As depicted
in the exhibit, the boat would meet side yard setback
requirements and the proposed pavement and
vegetation would remain outside of an eight (8) sewer
easement that runs on the southern perimeter of the
property.

Applicant’s Agents:
ANNE MILLER (804-794-0571)
Planning Department Case Manager:
DREW NOXON (804-748-1086)
REQUEST
Amendment of zoning approval (Case 94SN0138) relative to setbacks and landscaping. Specifically,
the applicant is requesting a setback reduction for a building and parking areas along Charter Colony
Parkway.
Notes:
A. Conditions may be imposed or the property owner may proffer conditions.
B. Proffered conditions, Textual Statement and Exhibits are located in Attachments 1 - 5.
SUMMARY
A convenience store is proposed on a site containing an existing stand-alone gas station and canopy.
The gas station was previously associated with the former Martin’s grocery store. The applicant is
requesting exceptions to reduce the required setback of 50 feet from the Charter Colony Parkway
right-of-way to 15 feet in order to accommodate the new store on the site while maintaining the
existing gas canopy, pumps and drive aisles. An alternative perimeter landscaping scheme has been
provided in order to accommodate plantings within the narrower setback area and to minimize the
view of parking areas and the existing gas canopy.

Approved
(8/1994)
Conditional Use Planned Development in a Community Business (C-3) District to
permit use and bulk exceptions.
• Permitted a mix of commercial, office and residential uses within 7
development tracts
• Tract 7 permitted C-3 uses, as well as Residential Townhouse (R-TH) and
Multi-family Residential Multi-family (R-MF) uses.
• Non-residential uses subject to Midlothian Village Fringe District
standards (setbacks and perimeter landscaping)
Proposal
A convenience store, as permitted by existing zoning, is proposed on the subject property. The
site is currently occupied by a stand-alone gas station previously associated with the shuttered
Martin’s grocery store and including gasoline pumps covered by a canopy measuring 82 feet wide
by 45 feet deep. The new convenience store would contain approximately 1,500 square feet
within a one-story building and six (6) parking spaces as required by Ordinance.
Setback and Perimeter Landscaping Exceptions
Case 94SN0138 requires that non-residential development shall comply with the Midlothian
Village Fringe standards of the Midlothian Special Design District. These design standards specify
a 50-foot setback for buildings from Charter Colony Parkway, with the provision of Perimeter
Landscaping E within that setback area. Martinet Xing is a Special Access Street therefore no
setbacks or perimeter landscaping are required along that road frontage.
The applicant proposes a 15-foot building setback along Charter Colony Road for the new
building. An alternative planting scheme within the 15-foot setback and the overall road frontage
along Charter Colony Parkway is provided in the Textual Statement and Conceptual Plan
(Attachments 2 & 3). This alternative landscaping would significantly enhance the street frontage
while mitigating views of proposed parking spaces and the existing gas canopy. While not
required by Ordinance, additional trees provided along Martinet Xing would improve views into
the gas canopy area and provide additional shade for users of the existing sidewalk.
Given the following, staff is supportive of the proposed exceptions:
• Exceptions to setbacks and perimeter landscaping will allow for flexibility on a site
constrained by the existing gas station canopy, pump islands and drives
• Location of the proposed building closer to the street would promote a pedestrian-
friendly village environment as recommend by the Midlothian Community Special Area
Plan
o Proffered conditions (Attachment 1) require a usable entry along Charter Colony
Parkway
o The proposed building would set the tone for the remaining vacant shopping
center outparcels along Charter Colony Parkway
• Conditions ensure quality architectural design and materials (Attachments 1 & 5) as well
as enhanced landscaping (Attachments 2 & 3)

Staff Contact: Rebeccah Rochet (804-748-1028) rochetr@chesterfield.gov
Geography
The subject property drains into an existing storm sewer system and then to the existing
stormwater pond located behind the shopping center. The pond discharges into an existing
culvert under Le Gordon Drive and to an inadequate culvert under Route 60. The entire property
is located within the James River Watershed.
Drainage
The subject property was originally developed as part of the Martin’s Food Store and Retail Shops
plan and drains to an inadequate culvert under Route 60. In the design for the existing
stormwater management system, the area of the proposed building and sidewalks were
accounted for as a pervious, grassy area; therefore, the existing storm sewer system does not
account for the area as impervious. As a result, the existing storm sewer system and pond shall
be evaluated for capacity. In addition, the 10-year and 100-year post development flows cannot
exceed the 10-year and 100-year pre-development flows, respectively, unless otherwise
approved by the Department of Environmental Engineering at the time of site plan review. The
applicant has offered Proffered Condition 5 to address this impact.
Stormwater Management
The development of the subject property will be subject to the Part IIB technical criteria of the
Virginia Stormwater Management Program Regulations (VSMP) Regulations for water quality and
quantity for redevelopment.

A convenience store is proposed on the subject property, which is
currently occupied by a free-standing gas station that was associated
with the former Martin’s grocery store.
Zoning Case 94SN0138 requires that non-residential uses meet the
Midlothian Village Fringe standards, which require a 50’ setback from
Charter Parkway with Perimeter Landscaping Schedule E within the
setback.
The applicants wish to amend the Textual Statement of the case in
order to reduce the building setback to 15’ to accommodate the new
convenience store between Charter Colony Parkway and the existing
gas canopy. With this reduced building setback, and alternative
planting plan has been provided which would
significantly enhance the street frontage while mitigating views of
proposed parking spaces and the existing gas canopy.
The applicants are providing building elevations with quality materials
and have proffered a usable entry along Charter Colony Parkway to
help activate the streetscape.

Proposal
The applicant has been operating a business (landscape contractor) from this property since
January 2020 without the required zoning. The property owners’ (Harold & Kathy Driver) son, Ian
Brown, operates the business from the property.
In April 2020, the Community Enhancement Department received a complaint relative to the
operation of a landscape business on the property. Upon investigation, staff observed two (2)
company vehicles and two (2) trailers parked on the premises. The operator of the business, Ian
Brown, conveyed to staff that he, his brother and another employee (who is not related the
applicants) reside in the dwelling with his parents. Part of the residence and property is used as an
office and parking area for the equipment involved in the business. These components of the
business exceed the ordinance limitations for a permitted home occupation, requiring a
conditional use.
Although Staff recommends denial, the Planning Commission felt that Condition 3 in this report
limiting the approval to one year, would permit the applicant time to find a suitable location for
the business. Should the Board of Supervisors wish to recommend approval of this case, staff and
the Planning Commission recommend approval with the following overview of conditions:
General Overview

General Overview (continued)
Requirements Details
Equipment/Vehicles
• Two (2) vehicles, not exceed 10,000 pounds or have more than
2 axles
• Two (2) trailers, not to exceed 3,200 pounds, 13 feet and have
more than 1 axles
• Vehicles to be parked on premises, trailers to be parked in the
driveway, behind the front plane of the dwelling
• No outside storage of equipment
Condition 8
Staff finds that the applicants’ request may adversely impact adjoining residential properties by
allowing a commercial use to encroach into an established residential area. The continuation of
vehicle, trailer and equipment storage on the property as well as having an employee reside on the
premises would not be compatible with existing residential development and permitted land uses.

The Planning Commission voted unanimously to
recommend approval of this request at their
September 15 public hearing. During the discussion,
Commissioners believed that the condition of a 12-
month time limit should allow for adequate time for
the applicants to locate a more appropriate business
location.
One citizen sent an e-mail to staff speaking on this
request, supporting the request, but requesting that
the time limit be reduced from 12 months to six (6)
months.
Staff continues to recommend denial of this request.
The proposed use of a commercial business is
incompatible with the residential use suggested by
Page 333 of 394
the Comprehensive Plan. The use represents a commercial
encroachment within an established residential
neighborhood.

REQUEST
Rezoning from Residential (R-88) to Agricultural (A).
Note: The only condition that may be imposed is a buffer condition. The property owner may proffer conditions.
SUMMARY
In 2007, the subject properties were rezoned from Agricultural (A) to Residential (R-88) to permit
the construction of up to 274 single-family dwellings (Cases 07SN0342 and 08SN0108). A
conservation easement recorded on the request properties in 2017 now limits residential
development to a maximum of ten (10) dwellings. The applicant no longer intends to develop the
subject property as a Residential (R-88) single-family subdivision; therefore, rezoning to Agricultural
(A) is proposed.

Proposal
The request properties are used in part for agricultural uses. Between 2007 and 2017, the subject
properties were zoned to permit a single-family residential subdivision with a maximum of 274
dwellings (known as Debonair Acres). A conservation easement was subsequently recorded in
October 2017. This easement, held by Chesterfield County, provides for the preservation of open
space and restricts development of these properties to a maximum of ten (10) dwelling units.
The applicant no longer intends to develop the previously planned Residential (R-88) subdivision.
Any future development of dwellings on these properties must conform to requirements in the
Zoning and Subdivision Ordinances, as well as restrictions outlined in the conservation easement.
The Comprehensive Plan suggests the properties are primarily appropriate for agricultural use
and larger lot single family residential development. Staff supports this rezoning request.

Mission
The County supports a high-quality park system to provide residents and visitors with balanced
access to active and passive recreation opportunities. The 2018 level of service is 7.5 acres of
regional, community and neighborhood parkland per 1,000 persons whereas the target level of
service is 9 acres per 1,000 persons.

• Matoaca Elementary School
• Matoaca Middle School

• Appomattox River Canoe Launch/John J. Radcliffe Conservation Area
• Matoaca Park
Public Facilities Plan
The Public Facilities Plan identifies the need for a regional park in the eastern Matoaca area between
River and Woodpecker roads. The plan state as park should include approximately 175 acres that
would accommodate regional park uses.
Bikeways and Trails
The Bikeways and Trails Chapter of the Comprehensive Plan recommends provision of
pedestrian/bicycle facilities along all routes shown on the Plan and connections from these routes
and existing pedestrian/bicycle facilities to adjacent developments. The Plan shows a future
separate shared use path segment nearest the property along River Road.
Page 344 of 394

Recommendation
The encumbrances on this 713-acre site related to the land conservation and nutrient bank limit
park development potential on 163.16 acres. This property should be studied further by Parks to
determine if it meets the needs for a regional park. Parks and Recreation are supportive of the
request.

Additional Utility Comments:
The subject property is located within the mandatory water connection area for new residential
development. The majority of the subject property is not located within the mandatory wastewater
connection area for new residential development, but a small portion at the easternmost boundary
is within the mandatory connection area.
The property is subject to an open-space easement that is held by Chesterfield County. The
downzoning of the property from R-88 to A will make the applicable zoning district consistent with
the purpose of the open-space easement. This will maintain the rural character of the area and not
permit extensive development.
Since no subdivision of the property will occur, any structures built would be subject to the water
and wastewater connection requirements of 18.60.A.1.a and 18.60.A.2.a and based upon distance
to the closest available utility line. The potential impact of the public water and wastewater systems
would be minimal.
The Utilities Department supports this case.

The area of interest contains 20 parcels totaling 713.5 acres that are
currently zoned Residential (R-88). In 2007, these parcels were zoned
from Agricultural to Residential R-88 for a single-family subdivision
(known as Debonair Acres) to permit the construction of up to 274
single-family dwellings (Cases 07SN0342 and 08SN0108). Ultimately,
the subdivision was never developed. In October 2017, a conservation
easement (currently held by the County) was recorded on the request
properties and limits residential development to a maximum of ten (10)
dwellings. The Comprehensive Plan suggests the properties are
primarily appropriate for agricultural use and larger lot single family
residential development. Staff supports this rezoning request.

The subject property is located at 9353 Graves Road. There are 20
parcels in this request that can be seen in Table A in your staff report.
In total, there are 713.5 acres of land proposed in this rezoning.
The request properties remain vacant and are used in part for
agricultural use. Between 2007 and 2017, the subject properties were
zoned to permit a single-family residential subdivision with a maximum
of 274 dwellings (known as Debonair Acres). A conservation easement
was subsequently recorded in October 2017. This easement, held by
Chesterfield County, provides for the preservation of open space and
restricts development of these properties to a maximum of ten (10)
dwelling units.
The applicant no longer intends to develop the previously planned

these properties must conform to requirements in the Zoning and
Subdivision Ordinances, as well as restrictions outlined in the
conservation easement.

AGENDA
Meeting Date: October 28, 2020 Item Number: 17.C.
Subject:
To Consider Code Amendment Relative to Townhouse and Multiple Family Unit Parking (20PJ0125)
Board Action Requested:
Following a public hearing adopt the attached code amendment.
Summary of Information:
Following a public hearing, the Planning Commission by unanimous vote forwarded a recommendation of
approval on the attached code amendment. The amendment proposes adjustment to the required parking for
both townhouse and multifamily development. Staff has undertaken a benchmarking exercise evaluating
parking requirements within peer localities as well as evaluating the recent trend in multifamily in the county
where parking reduction has become a typical zoning request. For multifamily, the parking factor will be now
based upon bedrooms per unit and for townhouse the required bonus parking would be allowed within roads.
Further, there are proposed allowances for multifamily development in certain design districts to include on-
street parking and have reductions in parking for developments that have elements such as connections to
pedestrian/bikeway systems. Countywide there is provision for reduction of parking for multifamily units in
close proximity to transit stops. In addition, the permitted parking space reduction for the provision of bike
storage spaces may now be up to 5 parking spaces.

AGENDA
Meeting Date: October 28, 2020 Item Number: 17.D.
Subject:
To Consider Second Amendment to Lease Agreement with 5G Air, LLC for Construction of Aircraft Hangars
at the Chesterfield County Airport
Board Action Requested:
Staff requests the Board hold a public hearing to consider approval of a second amendment to the existing lease
agreement with 5G Air, LLC for the construction of aircraft hangars at the Chesterfield County Airport.
Summary of Information:
The original lease agreement with 5G Air, LLC for the construction of two aircraft hangars at the Chesterfield
County Airport required the lessee to complete construction of the hangars by July 1, 2020. This deadline was
extended to November 1, 2020 via previous Board action primarily due to weather related delays.
Progress continues to be made on the construction of both hangars but the lessee has encountered ongoing
significant weather related delays as well as COVID-19 related supply chain challenges for materials essential
to the completion of the project.
In that the lease, and the 1st Amendment to the lease, has no provision to address weather related construction
delays, staff requests that the Board approve a second lease amendment authorizing an additional 90 days
beyond November 1, 2020, thus requiring completion of the hangars by February 1, 2021. Further, staff
requests the Board authorize the County Administrator to extend the deadline an additional 60 days to April 1,
2021 should unforeseen circumstances, weather and/or supply chain challenges continue to impact the project.

Subject:
To Consider the Exercise of Eminent Domain for the Acquisition of Permanent Water and Temporary

Project
Board Action Requested:
Authorize the County Attorney to proceed with eminent domain for the acquisition of permanent water,
temporary construction, electric and communication easements for the Huguenot Pump Station Transmission
Main Project, including the filing of certificates so construction may begin prior to eminent domain
proceedings.
Summary of Information:
Staff has made bona fide, but ineffectual efforts to acquire permanent water, temporary construction, electric
and communication easements for the Huguenot Pump Station Transmission Main Project. The following offer
has been made: 11304 Midlothian Turnpike, 11500 Midlothian Turnpike and 1121 Mall Drive, RPI
Chesterfield LLC, $36,079.00. This offer has not been accepted. It is necessary to proceed with condemnation
for the health and safety of the public. Staff will continue to negotiate with this owner in an effort to reach an
agreement.
Staff has acquired permanent water and temporary construction easements across the following property: 8821
W. Huguenot Road, Steven E. Divers, $2,263.00. However, it is necessary to proceed with eminent domain due
to the inability to obtain a subordination or consent from his lender in a timely manner.
Approval is recommended.

To Consider Amendments to County Code Sections 9-29, 9-30, 9-31 and 9-32 Relating to Rehabilitated
Historic Residential and Commercial Real Estate and Partial Exemption for Certain Rehabilitated, Renovated
or Replaced Commercial, Industrial and Residential Structures
Board Action Requested:
The Board is requested to hold a public hearing on October 28, 2020 to consider amendments to County Code
Sections 9-29, 9-30, 9-31 and 9-32 relating to rehabilitated historic residential and commercial real estate and
partial exemption for certain rehabilitated, renovated and replaced commercial, industrial and residential
structures and to adopt the proposed ordinance amendments, attached, at the close of the public hearing.
Summary of Information:
The County Code currently allows partial real estate tax exemptions for rehabilitation, renovation, or
replacement of older structures countywide. This program requires a property owner to file an application,
obtain a building permit, and perform work that meets certain performance criteria. This program encourages
reinvestment in older structures and provides an important community enhancement tool.
To further incentivize reinvestment in older commercial and industrial structures by property owners, staff
requests that Board to hold a public hearing for its October 28, 2020 meeting and to adopt the proposed
ordinance amendments at the close of the public hearing. The proposed ordinance amendments: 1) reduce the
minimum qualifying commercial and industrial structure age from 25 years to 20 years; 2) reduce the minimum
required additional assessed improvement value from 15% to 10% for commercial and industrial structures; 3)
increase the partial exemption benefit term from 7 years to 10 years for commercial and industrial structures;
and 4) for all exemption categories, increase the time period when an application may be accepted from 12
months to 24 months after applying for a building permit for the rehabilitation.
Other minor amendments are also proposed to simplify and make code language consistent across the
rehabilitation tax exemption programs.
