11. E~ARINGS OF CITIZENS ON UNSCHEDULED MATTERS OR CLAIMS
ll.A. MR. JERRY SILVERTHORN~ - DEER HUNTING
Mr. Hedge stated that Mir. Jerry Silverthorne is listed on the
agenda but Mr. Thomas Gordon and Mr. Don Shumaker will be the
speakers.
Mr. Gordon stated they were present to seek a letter from the
Board to the Commission of Game and Inland Fisheries to shorten
the 12 day doe season. He stated the reasons were because there
has been a drastic decrease in the deer population in. the County,
that the Com~ission will be making a decision on hunting season
in March which decision will be fur two years, he quoted
statistics which indicated there are more and more doe being
killed in comparison tO the total amount of deer killed during
the past several years, that there are only three local
jurisdictions which allow a 12 day doe season which draws hunters
to tho County for th~ additional days when they are unable to
hunt in their own jurisdictions, the County draws no benefit from
Others coming into thc County but this eliminates the deer
available in the County, etc. He stated they are not requesting
any restrictions placed but that the County write a letter to the
Commission of Game and Inland Fisheries requesting doe season for
1985 and 1986 be shortened. He stated there was a m~eting of 10
hunt clubs with 300-450 members who are in support of this
request. He stated the hunters feel they contribute to the
well-being of the County and feel they should be allowed to hunt
in the County which necessitates the need to let the population
of the deer increase so deer will not become extinct,
Mr. Daniel inquired if the hunters would prefer tho elimination
of the doe season for two years or until the deer population is
rejuvenated. Dr. Gordon stated they are concerned with having
the deer population increase. The hunters in the audience
indicated they would be in favor of total elimination of the doe
season for the next two years.
Mr. Applegate stated that anyone who deer hunts, knows that when
a doe is shot, the lives of three are ~sually taken as the doe is
carrying two young. He further discussed the killing of young
bucks during the season as well. Re read a statement by the
County Attorney indicating the process which should be followed
which he presented to Mr. Gordon for his information. He stated
the Commission is aware of the hunters' concerns in the County as
well. He stated that normally the Board would refer this back
tO staff for further investigation, however, the matter has been
reviewed thoroughly at this time. ~e suggested that the Board
adopt a resolution r~questing the elimination of doe season for
1985-86. Mr. Daniel suggested that a resolution be drawn and
prepared for the next Board meeting as there is ne emergency to
neet the deadlines of the Commission. Mrs. Girone suggested that
there be a limit of no more than six days in the event the
85-068
Commission does not eliminate the season completely. Mr. Gordon
stated that they are not concerned especially with numbers or
days, but just that the season be reduced dramatically and
drastically. Mr. Applegate stated that the request came to the
County in November and has been researched thoroughly by the
County Attorney's Office and a delay wo~ld not serve any purpose.
Mr. Dodd stated the Board does support this request and a
resolution should be sent but stated that when a similar
resolution was adopted by the Board regarding turkey season,
there was not much relief given. There was approximately 100
hunters present in support o~ this request.
On motion of Mr. Daniel, seconded by Mr. Dodd, the Board adopted
the following resolution:
Whereas, the Board of Supervisors has concerns that the deer
kill has reduced dramatically the deer population in Chesterfield
County since the implementation of the 12 day doe season; and
Whereas, this decrease in deer in the County has led hunters
to have major concerns regarding the survival of the animals as
well as the continuation of the sport in the County.
Now, Therefore~ Be It R~solved that the Chesterfield County
Board of Supervisors hereby respeet£ully requests that doe season
be eliminated completely during 1985 and 1986; however, if the
Co~ission of Game and Inland Fish,ties finds this is not
acceptable that the Board requests a reduction to no more than
six days which is comparabl~ to seasons in neighboring
jurisdictions.
Vote: Unanimous
Mr. Applegate expressed appreciation for the hunters bringing
this matter beFore the Board. Mr. Gordon expressed appreciation
on behalf of the those present for the Board's action.

Mr. S~ith stated Mr. Matyiko could not be present but Mr. Morris
Mason would be substituting for him. He stated they would also
accept a two week deferral if it was the Board~s pleasure. It
was generally agreed Mr. Mason could proceed. Mr. Mason stated
that at a meeting in January, 1985, Mr. Matyiko had addressed the
Board about the extension of Powhite Parkway and Mr. Applegate
indicated the study was completed and that staff would be meeting
with major property owners regarding access, etc. He stated a
meeting was held on January 31, 1985 but it was not a meeting
regarding the consultant's plans but was a meeting regarding the
County Administration's conceptions to the General Plan 2000. He
stated it is virtually impossible for them to develop alternative
plans while being denied access to the consultant's plans,
justifications, supporting data, etc. He stated they were
interested in having a meeting with ~ellerco, County staff and
other interested parties to review the Kellerco plans, maps, etc.
in reference to their highway plans.
Mr. Applegate stated Mr. Muzzy has informed him that the Kellerco
Plan is in the process of being finalized and it is anticipated

and three alternatives have been outlined. He Stated the School
Board supports the effort to provide acceas to the parking lot
from Walmeley Boulevard and had indicated a preference for Option
B. He stated they were in favor of the acces~ road from
Walmsley to the parking lot and they would maintain it after it
is constructed and restrict its use. He stated the Fire
Department is also interested and would like staff to consider
the access road to the parking lot behind their station. He
stated no funds have been budgeted for this construction. Mr.
Applegate stated the road situation in this area is less than
d~slrable, there are a number of automobile accidents weekly,
something should be done prior to a fatality, etc. He stated he
felt to combine this with the request of the Fire Department may
be in order. Mrs. Girone stated she felt it would be wrong to
run the road from Walmsley to Route 360 as it would become a
public road and she felt Option "C" would be best which is to
reconstruct the existing entrance road from Walmsley to the
parking lot, Mr. Appleqate stated he agreed the through street
is not the answer to the problem but if access for the Fire
Department is in the recommendation, that would be appropriate.
Mr. McCrackeh etated none of the options include access for the
Fire Department.

approved Option "C" to reconstruct the existing entrance from
Walmsley Boulevard to the Manchester High School parking lot
which is estimated to cost $50,000, a Copy of the plans are filed

for Meadcwbrook High School come from the General Fund as well.
Mrs. Girone stated she felt if there were schools with major
access problems, they should be addressed in the CIP and put on a
bond referendum. Mr. Applegate stated the Manchester High School
problem was identified six months ago and he was very concerned
about safety in the area. Mr. Dodd stated he felt this was a
85-080
worthwhile project and to wait £or the CIP would be too long.
Me stated if Mr. Daniel has a problem on Cogbill Road then staff
can review the situation and bring it back to the Roard. He
stated he felt this was too important to defer because of money.
Mrs. Girone inquired how this road would improve the situation on
Route 360. Mr Applegate stated the students would exit onto
Walmsley Boulevard rather than Route 360. He stated currently
the students use the same entrance which the Fire Department has
to use, they cross Route 360 without the benefit of a light,
there is service road across the street, etc. Mrs. Girone Stated
she did not See how this project would improve the area. Mr.
Applegate explained the layout in detail and the volatile
situation which exists. Mrs. Girone stated she felt this was a
worthwhile project but it should be planned for.
On motion o£ Hr. Applegate, seconded by Mr. Daniel, the Board
appropriated $50,000 from the General Fund since there are no
funds budgeted for the Manchester High School project, that the
County Acl~inistrator be authorized to execute any necessary
documents for the project and in addition, that staff be
instructed to evaluate the traffic conditions at Meadewbrook High
School along Cogbill ~ead.
