County Administrator's Comments:
Board Action Requested:
Summary of Information:
Ann Robertson, a meter reader with the Utilities Department was selected
by the Itron Corporation as the First Runner-Up in their 1993 Meter
Reader of the Year Contest. This award follows Cheryl Earp of
Chesterfield County Utilities winning the 1992 Meter Reader of the Year.
According to John Watson, Field Services Supervisor, "they don't come
any finer, any more dedicated to getting the job done, and integrating
a team into a force to maximize the efficiency and performance of meter
reading."
The Itron Corporation provides electronic meter reading systems to over
800 water, gas and electric utilities throughout the United States,
Canada, Europe, Australia, China and Saudi Arabia. Mrs. Robertson
easily met the criteria of overall performance, customer relations,
teamwork, attitude and contributions to her work unit. The Itron
Corporation received 200 nominations this year from such utilities as
Philadelphia Electric, Arizona Public Service Company, and Palm Beach
County Water. Congratulations are in order to Ann Robertson, the
Utilities Department, and Chesterfield County for a great showing for
this most prestigious award for the 2nd consecutive year. Recognition
of this magnitude is another fine example of the caliber of talent so
prevalent in the Chesterfield County family.

Dear Citizen of Chesterfield County:
The Chesterfield County Board of Supervisors formed a citizen board in 1978, called the Youth
Services Commission, to:
advise the Board about issues related to youth,
develop recommendations to meet the needs of youth, and
involve the community in addressing youth concerns.
The Office on Youth was formed in 1986 after the County secured a grant through the
Delinquency Prevention and Youth Development Act. The Office on Youth was charged to:
staff the Youth Services Commission and
coordinate services to youth within the County.
This year the name of the Youth Services Commission was changed to the Youth Services
Citizen Board when a new Resolution of Formation and by-laws were adopted, April 1992.
The most significant events of this year for youth services have been the publication of
"Growing Up in the 90's in Chesterfield County: 1991 Youth Needs Assessment", and the
translation of that report into a Six Year Plan for Youth Services in this community.
Additional accomplishments this year include enhanced participation in the annual Youth
Awards and Model County Government Programs, and advocating for several areas of special
need in the community including Youth in Crisis, Schools as SateWtes, and Innovations in
Court Services.
It has been my pleasure to work with this outstanding group of volunteers on behalf of our
youngest citizens. If you would like to join this important effort, please contact your Supervisor
or the Office on Youth.

ASSESSING OUR CO1~~VIUIVITY'S NEEDS
GROWING UP IN THE 90'S IN CHESTERFIELD COUNTY:
1991 YOUTH NEEDS ASSESSMENT
The Office on Youth is required to conduct acommunity-wide needs assessment each six years
which includes:
youth interviews - 350 conducted for the 1991 assessment;
adult interviews - 350 conducted for the 1991 assessment;
survey of service providers - 75 responded to 1991 survey; and
review of all pertinent records of the locality.
The Chesterfield County Office on Youth published "Growing Up in the Nineties in Chesterfield
County: 1991 Youth Needs Assessment" in January, 1992 and has distributed 500 copies to date.
The following community needs are documented by this assessment:
• an increase in our total population and the large percentage of our population
which is under 18 years of age demand attention to education, recreation,
support and intervention services;
• an overall increase in the number of people moving to this community from
outside the county (and from outside Virginia) requires effective, efficient,
accessible information systems to help new citizens establish themselves in their
new community;
• an increasing number of households where all adults work full time,
combined with a continuing pattern of workers commuting outside of the
county, create a need for varied, affordable, flexible day caze options for
preschool and school-aged children, and for safe, inexpensive free time options
for youth;
• pervasive use of alcohol by adults and youth, increasing family .disruption,
and increasing adolescent sexual activity create a need to identify youth with
high risk behaviors and to provide effective intervention and diversion services
that support families' efforts to sustain their own healthy independence;
• extraordinary reliance upon public health, mental health, social and
recreation services, precipitated by the economic downturn of 1991-92,
requires a service delivery system with the flexibility and resources to address
extraordinary circumstances;
• an increasing number of youth and families demonstrating chronic, multi-
faceted problems that demand services and treatment from many
departments, requires an efficient system for service design, delivery and
coordination.

SHAPING OUR F'iT.l'URE
THE SIX YEAR PLAN FOR YOUTH SERVICES
The 1991 Youth Needs Assessment set the stage for development of a long range plan for youth
services in the next six years. This plan is the product of a conference, the Youth Needs
Symposium, held March 17, 1992, in which fifty participants identified the following themes for
strengthening youth services in ChesterFeld County, 1992 through 1999:
- improve options for youth free time activities;
- increase child care options in the community;
- improve access for families and children to early detection, intervention and
supportive services;
- coordinate service delivery between service providers; and
- improve coordination of services to two groups of "at risk" youth:
- those who are "at risk" in that they are vulnerable to difficulties, and
- those who are "at risk" for placement in residential care.

A UNIQUE CHALLENGE TO THE YOUTH SERVICE COI~ZMUNITY
T~ COMPREHENSIVE SERVICES ACT FOR AT RLSK YOUTH
Throughout Virginia, a small number of youth in each community have such extraordinary needs
that they cannot receive the services they require while living with their families in the
community. These children are placed in residential facilities.
Residential placement is arranged by one of four county departments, depending upon the
particular needs of the young person. Placement in these facilities tends to be extremely costly
both in terms of dollars, and in terms of the many life adjustments required for the child and
their family.
The 1992 General Assembly passed the first part of a new law, the Comprehensive Services Act,
which is designed to encourage the development of local services to meet the needs of this
special group of young people. The goal is that through creative and well orchestrated services,
more of these children will be able to remain in the community. This law will be completed in
1993 when the General Assembly will address funding issues.
In Chesterfield County, the Office on Youth is a participating member of the Comprehensive
Services Policy and Management Team. As a member of this team, this office is working to
facilitate the successful implementation of this new concept in service planning and delivery -
as one facet of improving coordination of services to "at risk" youth.
