BE IT ORDAINED BY THE BOARD OF SUPERVISORS OF CHESTERFIELD COUNTY, VIRGINIA: 1. That §6-78 of Chapter 6 of The Code of the County of Ches- terfield, Virginia, shall be repealed, and a new section to be known as §6-78 shall be readopted as follows: Sec. 6-78. Same --Use of chemical analysis to determine alcohol in blood; procedure; costs; evidence. (a) As used in this section "license" means any operator's, ' chauffeur's or learner's permit or license authorizing the operation of a motor vehicle upon the highways. (b) Any person whether licensed by Virginia or not, who operates a motor vehicle upon a public highway in this State on and after July one, nineteen hundred sixty-four, shall be deemed thereby, as a condition of such operation, to have consented to have a sample of his blood taken for a chemical test to determine the alcoholic con- tent thereof, if such person is arrested for a violation of §6-77. (c) If a person after being arrested for a violation of §6-77 and after having been advised by the arresting officer that a person who operates a motor vehicle upon a public highway in this State shall be deemed thereby, as a condition of such operation, to have consented to have a sample of his blood taken for a chemical test to determine the alcoholic content thereof, and that the unreasonable refusal to do so constitutes grounds for the revocation of the privilege of operating a motor vehicle upon the highways of this State, then refuses to permit the taking of a sample of his blood for such tests, the arresting officer shall take the person arrested before a committ:g magistrate and if he does again so refuse after having been further advised by such magistrate of the law requiring a blood test,to be taken and the penalty for refusal, and so declares again his refusal in writing upon a form provided by the Chief Medical Examiner of Virginia (hereinafter referred to as Chief Medical Examiner), or refuses or fails to so declare in writing and such fact is certified as prescribed in paragraph (j), then no blood sample shall be taken even though he may thereafter request same. (d) Only a physician, registered professional nurse, graduate laboratory technician or a technician or nurse designated by order of a court of record acting upon the recommendation of a licensed physician, using soap and water.to cleanse the part of the body from which the blood is taken and using instruments sterilized by the accepted steam sterilizer or some other sterilizer which will not affect the accuracy of the test, or using chemically clean sterile disposable syringes, shall withdraw blood for the purpose of determining the alcoholic content thereof. 11% (d-1) Portions of the blood sample so withdrawn shall be placed in each of two vials provided by the Chief Medical Examiner, which vials shall be sealed and labeled by the person taking the sample or at his direction, showing on each the name of the accused, the name of the person taking the blood sample, and the date and time the blood sample was taken. The vials shall be placed in two containers pro- vided by the Chief Medical Examiner, which containers shall be sealed so as not to allow tampering with the contents. The arresting or accompanying officer shall take possession of the two containers holding the vials as soon as the vials are placed in such containers and sealed, and shall transport or mail one of the vials forthwith to the Chief Medical Examiner. The officer taking possession of the other contained (hereinafter referred to as second container) shall, immediately after taking possession of said second container give to the accused a form provided by the Chief Medical Examiner which shall set forth the procedure to obtain an independent analysis of the blood in the second container, and a list of those laboratories and their addressed, approved by the State Health Commissioner; such form shall contain a space for the accused or his counsel to direct the officer possessing such second container to forward that container to such approved laboratory for analysis, if desired. The officer having the second container, after delivery of the form referred to in the preceding sentence (unless at that time directed by the accused in writing on such form to forward the second container to an approved laboratory of the accused's choice, in which event the officer shall do so) shall deliver said second container to the chief police officer of Chesterfield County, and the chief police officer who receives the same shall keep it in his possession for a period of seventy-two (72) hours, during which time the accused or his counsel may, in writing, on the form provided hereinabove, direct the chief police officer having possession of the second container to mail it to the laboratory of the accused's choice chosen from the approved list. As used in this section, the term "chief police officer" shall mean the sheriff of Chesterfield County. (d-2) The testing of the contents of the second container shall be made in the same manner as hereafter set forth concerning the procedure to be followed by the Chief Medical Examiner, and all pro- cedures established herein for transmittal, testing and admission of the result in the trial of the case shall be the same as for the sample sent to the Chief Medical Examiner. (d-3) A fee not to exceed $15.00 shall be allowed the approved laboratory for making the analysis of the second blood sample which fee shall be paid out of the appropriation for criminal charges. If the person whose blood sample was withdrawn is subsequently convicted for violatinn of §6-77, the fee charged by the laboratory for testing the blood sample shall be taxed as part of the costs of the criminal case and shall be paid into the general fund of the County. (d-4) If the chief police officer having possession of the second container is not directed as herein provided to mail it within seventy-two (72) hours after receiving said container then said officer shall destroy same. %AW `,10 (e) Upon receipt of the blood sample forwarded to his office for analysis, the Chief Medical Examiner shall cause it to be examined for alcoholic content and he or an Assistant Chief Medical Examiner shall execute a certificate which shall indicate the name of the accused, the date, time and by whom the blood sample was received and examined, a statement that the container seal had not been broken or otherwise tampered with, a statement that the container was one provided by the Chief Medical Examiner and a statement of the alcoholic content of the sample. The certificate attached to the vial from which the blood sample examined was taken shall be returned to the clerk of the court in which the charge will be heard. The certificate attached to the container forwarded on behalf of the accused shall also be returned to the clerk of the court in which the charge will be heard, and such certificate shall be admissible in evidence when attested by the pathologist or by the supervisor of the laboratory approved by the State Health Commissioner. (f) When any blood sample taken in accordance with the pro- visions of this section is forwarded for analysis to the office of the Chief Medical Examiner, a report of the results of such analysis shall be made and filed in that office. Upon proper identification of the vial into which the blood sample was placed, the certificate as provided for in this section shall, when duly attested by the Chief Medical Examiner, or any Assistant Chief Medical Examiner, be admissible in any court, in any criminal proceeding, as evidence of the facts therein stated and of the results of such analysis. (g) Upon the request of the person whose blood sample was taken for a chemical test to determine the alcoholic content thereof, the results of such test or tests shall be made available to him. (h) A fee not exceeding five dollars shall be allowed the person withdrawing a blood sample in accordance with this section, which fee shall be paid out of the appropriation for criminal charges. If the person whose blood sample was withdrawn is subsequently con- victed for violation of §6-77, the amount charged by the person with- drawing the sample shall be taxed as part of the costs of the criminal case and shall be paid into the general fund of the County. (i) In any trial for a violation of §6-77 of the Chesterfield County Code, this section shall not otherwise limit the introduction of any relevant evidence bearing upon any question at issue before the court, and the court shall, regardless of the result of the blood test or tests, if any, consider such other relevant evidence of the condition of the accused as shall be admissible in evidence. The failure of an accused to permit a sample of his blood to be withdrawn for a chemical test to determine the alcoholic content thereof is not evidence and shall not be subject to comment at the trial of the case; nor shall the fact that a blood test had been offered the accused be evidence or the subject of comment. (j) The form referred to in paragraph (c) shall contain a brief statement of the law requiring the taking of a blood sample and the penalty for refusal, a declaration of refusal and lines for the signature of the person from whom the blood sample is sought, the date and the signature of a witness to the signing. If such person refuses or fails to execute such declaration, the committing justice, ,, ,ftw clerk or assistant clerk shall certify such fact, and that the committing justice, clerk or assistant clerk advised the person arrested that such refusal or failure, if found to be unreasonable, constitutes grounds for the revocation of such person's license to drive. The committing or issuing justice, clerk or assistant clerk shall forthwith issue a warrant charging the person refusing to take the test to determine the alcoholic content of his blood with violation of §18.1-55.1 of the Code of Virginia. The warrant shall be executed in the same manner as criminal warrants. (k) The executed declaration of refusal or the certificate of the committing justice, as the case may be, shall be attached to the warrant and shall beforwarded by the comitting justice, clerk or assistant clerk to the court in which the offense of driving under the influence of intoxicants shall be tried. (1) When the court receives the declaration of refusal or certificate referred to in paragraph (k) together with the warrant charing the defendant with refusing to submit to having a sample of his blood taken for the determination of the alcoholic content thereof, the court shall fix a date for the trial of said warrant, at such time as the court shall designate, but subsequent to the defendant's criminal trial for driving under the influence of intoxicants. (m) The declaration of refusal or certificate under paragraph (k), as the case may be, shil be prima facie evidence that the defendant refused to submit to the taking of a sample of his blood to determine the alcoholic content thereof as provided hereinabove. However, this shall not be deemed to prohibit the defendant from introducing on his behalf evidence of the basis for his refusal to submit to the taking of a sample of his blood to determine the alcoholic content thereof. The court shall determine the reasonable- ness of such refusal. (n) If the court shall find the defendant guilty as charged in the warrant, the court shall suspend the defendat's license for a period of 90 days for a first offense and for six months for a second or subsequent offense or refusal within one year of the first or other such refusals; the time shall be computed as follows: the date of the first offense and the date of the second or subse- quent offense. (o) The court shall forward the defendant's license to the Commissioner of the Division of Motor Vehicles of Virginia as in other cases of similar nature for suspension of license unless, however, the defendant shall appeal his conviction in which case the court shall return the license to the defendant upon his appeal being perfected. (p) The procedure for appeal and trial shall be the same as provided by law for misdemeanors. (q) No person arrested for a violation of §6-77 shall be required to execute in favor of any person or corporation a waiver or release of liability in connection with the withdrawal of blood and as a condition precedent to the withdrawal of blood as provided for herein. (r) The court or the jury trying the case shall determine the innocence or the guilt of the defendant from all the evidence con- cerning his condition at the time of the alleged offense. (s) The steps herein set forth relating to the taking, handling, identification, and disposition of blood samples are procedural in nature and not substantive. Substantial compliance therewith shall be deemed to be sufficient. Failure to comply with any one or more of such steps or portions thereof, or a variance in the results of the two blood tests shall not of itself be grounds for finding the defendant not guilty, but shall go to the weight of the evidence and shall be considered as set forth above with all the evidence in the case, provided that the defendant shall have the right to introduce evidence on his own behalf to show non-compliance with the aforesaid procedure or any part thereof, and that as a result his rights were prejudiced. 2. Section 6-78 of the County Code is repealed as of the first moment of July 1, 1964. 3. An emergency existing, this ordinance shall be in full force and effect on and after July 1, 1964. n M LAND CORPORATION 6829 FOREST HILL AVENUE STRATFORD HILLS SHOPPING CENTER RICHMOND, VA. 23225 PHONE 272-1415 June 23, 1964 Mr. M.

W. Burnett Executive Secretary Chesterfield County Chesterfield, Virginia Dear Mr. Burnett: June 18, 1964 oo, P 1964 �\ RECEIVED ROAN OF 99M w BESTMy 'U The most rapid developing area of Chesterfield County has been mapped on original field sheets by the soil scientists during the past three years. This is a little over one-third of the total acreage of the county. This information, when correctly interpreted, can be of great value to the various agencies of the county in obtaining the best use of the land in planning, growth, and development. In addition, it can be of use to the county planner, the en- gineering department, the school board, the highway department, and the assessor's office. The health department has recognized the value of proper soil interpretation from the soil maps in its daily work and particularly in working with the planning board on land use in proposed subdivisions. The demand for the release of soil information has been greatly increased by land developers and civil engineers. In trying to satisfy this need through the health department, the soil survey team has fallen behind on its time schedule. According to Dr. Obenshain and the V.P.I. Department of Agronomy, the three soil scientists will have to stay in the field and complete the soil maps (because they are behind schedule) and do an absolute minimum of soil interpretation for the various agencies. This is of great concern to the health department because this detailed information on the maps is needed now and we can't wait two years for it. M M Mr. M. W. Burnett -2- June 18, 1964 With this in mind, the health department has asked Dr. Obenshain if he could find a qualified soil scientist to work in Chesterfield County with the three field men and their maps to interpret and re- lease soil information to the departments so desperately needing it. This he has agreed to do provided certain funds are made available. The State Health Department feels very strongly that this is the only sound approach for Chesterfield to solve some of her problems. They are willing to supplement a large proportion of the expense to provide a qualified soil scientist for interpretation work the first year. The following year he could be worked into the local health department budget on Chesterfield's assigned percentage basis later. Thank you for your cooperation in this matter, and if there is additional information concerning how this position should be obtained and administered, please contact us. Sincerely, "�_*j " W. P.

A building permit has been issued for Parcel No. 1, with an entrance drive adjacent to Parcel No. 4. A building permit is sought for Parcel go. 2 but cannot be issued as "A" Street is not open and improved. "A" Street has been closed east of Parcel 2 by Mrs. Burton Marys and I an advised that the land to the north of "A" Street is owned by the Southern Railroad. Zt appears that only Parcel go. 2 has need of an entrance. It isa burden to have to improve "A" Street for Parcel No. 2 alone. In addition, the County maintenance of the street for one property owner may b4 a burden in the future. It is requested that the Hoard of supervisors grant a variance to authoris* a building permit to be issued for Parcel No. 2 upon the owner constructing a 20 foot driveway on "A" street. To avoid lager misunderstandings and requests to the County to improve or maintain said road, the present owner could be required to lop *-&* as a covenant running with the land a provision that the grantee in his deed and in any future deed takes tit&* subject to the drive being privately maintained, and net maintained by the County of Chesterfield, we should appreciate very much this being considered at the Juror 12, 1964, meeting of the supervisors. if I may furnish any further infornStion, please call me at mi 8--4919.

GATES CLERK O�TJn �r COMMONWEALTH ATTORNEY CIRCUIT COURT CHESTERFIELD, VIRGINIA June 24, 1964 Mr. M. W. Burnett Executive Secretary Chesterfield County Chesterfield, Virginia Dear Mel: Regarding your letter of June 23 concerning the status of the public landing on property of the Virginia Electric and Power Company at Dutch Gap, please be advised that the County is leasing this property which contains 4.32 acres from the Virginia Electric and Power Company on a year to year basis for the rental of $1 a year. This lease is automatically renewed from year to year unless the parties each give the other at lease sixty days notice of its ter- mination. The lease provides that the Board of Supervisors by leasing this property does not abandon, release, or extinguish or in any way give up any rights that it has in the old Coxendale Road running from the re -location of such road in an easterly direction from the portion of such road abandoned and its new location to the James River as shown on a plat made by Stone and Webster Engineering Corporation dated August 30, 1942. The agreement provides that the County would maintain the area and provide parking facilities and keep the same in a state of good repair. It is my opinion that the County has not complied with its agreement. The parking area is not being maintained and the public is not getting the maximum benefit from the landing. I have requested the Commissioner of Game and Inland Fisheries to construct a concrete boat landing and have been advised that if the lease could be on a more permanent basis, that is for a period of five or ten years, then the Commission would feel that they could spend some money for permanent improvements. M M Mr. M. W. Burnett June 24, 1964 Page 2 The County has maintained that the Power Company closed a public road without its permission which cut the public's right of ingress and egress to and from the James River. Part of this road was closed when the new Power Company facility was constructed on the James River and there are records in the Supervisors Order Book No. 9 at pages 22 and 61 concerning the re -location of State Highway 615 and 617. The landing facility was constructed by the Power Company at its expense. The lease is not recorded. papers of the Board. EPG:c I assume a copy is filed with the Very truly yours, Ernest P.

Very truly yours, Ernest P. Gates Commonwealth's Attorney EPG: c RE: SWIFT CREEK RESERVOIR On motion of ���vi .✓ , seconded by be it resolved that the Board of Supervisors of Chesterfield County approves the draft of the Agreement dated June 25, 1964, between the County of Chesterfield and the Chesterfield Land and Timber Corporation for the right of the County to acquire an easement to flood land of the Corporation on Swift Creek and its tributaries upon the terms and conditions therein; the Agreement of the developers of property between the proposed Swift Creek Reservoir and State Route 711 to construct a 16-inch water line as set forth in a letter of June 22, 1964, upon its terms and conditions; and the Option Agreement for the acquisition of the right to acquire permanent flood easements from other landowners adjacent to Swift Creek and its tributaries for the construction of such reservoir; and, It Is Further Resolved, that the Chairman and the Clerk of this Board are authorized to execute these contract documents on behalf of the Board of Supervisors when the same have been approved'as to form and contents by the County Engineer, the Executive Secretary, and the Commonwealth's Attorney of this county; and, It Is Further Resolved, that the Commonwealth's Attorney of this County is authorized and requested on behalf of this Board to do any and all acts necessary and proper to make effective this re- solution and further to take the necessary action to obtain all approval that may be required by law to use this area for a source of water supply. It Is Further Resolved, that the County Engineer and the Execu- tive Secretary are authorized to negotiate with the landowners for the acquisition of flood easements along Swift Creek and its tri- butaries. r- n CM A giant stride in the development of Chesterfield County was taken today. The culmination of years of planning and negotiation resulted in a resolution of '=greement between the Chesterfield Land and Timber Corporation and the County of Chesterfield. The Agreement is the first step in a mammoth project of clearing over 2,000 acres of land and the impounding of Swift Creek to form a reservoir of 5 billion gallons of water. The plan calls for the initial construction in 1965 of a dam 27 feet high. Within three years the County may raise the dam up to 20 feet higher to form a reservoir of approximately 20 billion gallons of water. A filter plant will be constructed also in 1965 at the site of Swift Creek and Rt.360 and a 16-inch water line will be constructed northwardly to the Bon Air area. A larger water main will be constructed in 1966 from the new filter plant eastwardly along Rt.360 to Turner Road to join the present water system in that area. Mr. L. F. Powell,Sr. and his family have owned most of the land for many years and have long cherished a dream of a large lake at this site. The elder Mr. Powell, now 84 years old, cut timber on this land over 50 years ago for his box manufacturing plant, the David M. Lea Company. It is generally conceded that this is the last site in the County where such a facility could be constructed on an economical basis and without flooding •any homes. There are only 6 parcels of land yet to be acquired; however, it is hoped that much of this /4Nd can be donated since the enhancement of the remainder will more than offset the loss. It is expected that at least 3500 acres of land will be developed for high grade residential use. Adequate planning of the entire area has been assured. The Board of Supervisors expressed its warm appreciation to the Powells for their cooperation in this development. Under the terms of the ,Agreement the Chesterfield Land and Timber Corporation, of which Mr. Angus Powell is the President, agrees to clear the land to ground level at a cost in excess of $400,000, The County will pay $100.00 per acre to the Corporation for the land flooded initially which will amount to about $200,000. County officials praised Mr. L. F. Powell for his farsightedness. All agree that this project will have great effect on the development of the County. Through the cooperation of the County with the Powells, Mr.C.E. Copley, Yx. T. G. Layfield, Jr., Mr. Fleetwood Garner and the Salisbury Corporation, a 16-inch water main will be constructed from Rt.360 to Robious Road, where it will boost the supply to the mushrooming developments of this area. The dam and filter plant will be constructed from current funds in the Water Department. No tax money will be used for this project. The total cost of the first phase of this development will be approximately $1,700,000, most of which will be financed over a three year period. l M Clearing is expected to start immediately and will be finished by early 1966 when construction is expected to be completed on the dam and filter plant. With this great new water expansion program underway and with the rapidly developing supply of water from the Appomattox Water authority, Chesterfield is planning well to satisfy its water needs in the years to come. With the wide acceptance of the ever expanding County sewer system, the construction of many fine new schools and the announcement of several new industrial plants locating in the County, Chesterfield proves that it is moving forward. ,.
