Oren has agreed to give us, the stream- lining of the cab, three helper steps and John Beam mounting 'brackets for the high -)ressure nozzles.

SPENCER When I met with the Board of Supervisors on November 10 and asked for additional funds for teachers' salaries for the current session approximating $35, 000, I also stated that it was entirely possible that we would have to employ additional teachers as the session advance d. When the 10 chool :bard met in regular session December 16, 1964, a report was made clearly indicating the need for additional employees: one to perform the duties of assistant principal at Huguenot High School and four to instruct in the elementary schools. At the direction of the board, we shall proceed to employ the necessary personnel and give notice that we will need an additional support before the session ends in the amount of $16, 000. I have also been instructed by the school board to call your attention to the fact that there are many class sections in the county which cannot be successfully instructed if many more children move in, and therefore we wdl may expect more teachers during the current session.

We r4spectfully request that you allow us to proceed with construction of houses as applied for by building permits already issued in our West Chesterfield Gardens Subdivision, Manchester, District, Chesterfield County, Virginia. The reason we did not proceed with construction as soon as the building permits were received was that sewers were not available as early as we had anticipated. When they became available, our commitments for construc- tion funds had expired, and it was necessary for us to reinstate such commit- ments, thus causing considerable delay. The specific permits on which we wish an extension are as follows: Permit No. Lot No. 23828 9D 23830 6E 23833 3E 23834 2E 23835 10D 23836 7D 23844 4E 23845 8D 23847 5E You also questioned the following building permit numbers, on which houses are already under construction or practically complete.

GORDON 89NN1rrT C. H. MOMISOWT ■X•orrmO URN The Compensation Board, in fixing Budget allowances for the offices of County Sheriff and City Sergeant for the calendar year 1965, has decided not to make any allowance for estimated mileage, as our experience over the years has been that it is practically impossible to estimate with any degree of accuracy the amount of mileage which may be necessary for a Sheriff or Sergeant or a full- time Deputy to use on official business during the calendar year. Therefore, no amount of money is shown opposite mileage on the allowance sheet attached hereto. The Compensation Board will continue, as has been done in the past, to approve for payment, at the approved rate per mile, the State's proportion- ate part of necessary official mileage used by a Sheriff or Sergeant or his full-time Deputies as shown on C.B. Forms 1 A Revised and 15, which forms, as you know, are filed monthly. The Compensation Board does not approve of a Sheriff or a full-time Deputy traveling on what is commonly known as "patrolling" except for a specific purpose; that is, where he has information that some unlawful act may be committed, or a suspect found, etc., at a certain place, and he travels in an effort to prevent a crime or apprehend a suspect. A Sheriff or Sergeant or a full-time Deputy should be very careful, in traveling from one point to another, to take the most direct route, and, if it is a long-distance trip he has to make, he should always first ascertain if travel by public trans- portation would be less expensive than by private automobile. In other words, a Sheriff or Sergeant or a Deputy should use every means possible to hold down the expenses of travel on official business. The Compensation Board hopes that every Board of Supervisors of a County and every Council of a City (or its authorized agent) will carefully examine the monthly detailed report of mileage of Sheriffs and Sergeants and their Deputies in an effort to eliminate any unnecessary travel. truly yours, Chairman Copy of this circular is being sent to each Sheriff and Sergeant compensated on a salary basis.

Gill Chief of Police EPG/bsl INTRODUCING BLUE SHIELD CONTRACT SERIES 4000, 6000, 7501 Now your Blue Shield benefits are based on a new concept of de- termining the payments to your physician for professional services MEDICAL SERVICES The medical care ogered in all three contracts includes normal, intensive ernd prolonged detention care. (Consultations are also covered under all contracts.) Normal hospital care allows up to 70 days of in -hospital care per ronfinement. A 90-day period between confinements renews the full benefits. Intensive tttetlieal care is rendered by the attending physician when the patient requires additional time and study beyond normal services. Allowances are made for up to 14 benefit days in Lieu of other in - hospital medical rare benefits. Prolonged detention care is rendered for critical conditions and consists of constant and prolonged bedside attendance by the physician. SURGERY AND ANESTHESIA Surgical care allowances include pre- and postoperative care of the patient while in the hospital; for non -hospitalized cases, allowances include postoperative visits to the doctor's office. Services may be performed in the hospital and in the office of the surgeon. Anesthesia services include pre- and postoperative visits and the administration of the anesthetic and fluids or blood incident to the anesthesia or surgery performed. Maternity care benefits for a normal delivery are provided according to the allowance listed. Benefits for complications, Caesarean delivery, etc. vary depending upon the exact service rendered. Care of normal newborn by other than the delivering physician is covered. RADIOLOGY Radiological services include diagnostic and therapeutic treatments. Dia-mostic X-ray benefits up to $50 for SERIES 4000, $100 for SERIES 6000, and $150 for SERIES 7500 for in -hospital services and initial X-ray examinations for iton-hospitalized accident cases are avail- able per participant year. Radiation therapy covered includes use of X-ray, radium or radon for cancer and certain other serious conditions both in and out of the hospital. Maximum limits allowed depend upon the specific disease. PATHOLOGY Pathological services include materials and suPplies incidental to the diagnostic examination of tissues. GENERAL Full -service income limits are applicable to each contract as indi- cated. Participating Physicians of this Blue Shield flan have agreed to accept the 131ue Shield allowances as payment in full of their charges for covered services that they render to a member when his income is within the amount sort by his contract, except in cases when there is other insurance coverage for the same services. Blue Shield allowances are determined by the service performed and are paid according to the Blue Shield Fee Schedule based upon the Professional Services Index. The PSI is a nationally developed guide that shows a relationship between different medical and surgical services. Each included service is related to others in terms of a "unit" measurement which is given a different dollar value for each contract series. These dollar values are then used to convert the unit value to a dollar allowance. MEDICAL.

EURE, DIRECTOR OF ADMINISTRATION JOHN E. HARWOOD, DIRECTOR OF PROGRAMMING AND PLANNING D. N. HUDDLE, DIRECTOR OF ENGINEERING IN REPLY PLEASE REFER TO Proposed Chesterfield County Water Supply - Swift Creek Reservoir Chesterfield County This is with further reference to the meeting in the Highway office on September 4, 1964 between officials of the County of Chesterfield, their consultants, and engineers of this Department, and to the submission by J. K. Timmons & Associates of November 16, 1964 to Mr. H. G. Blundon, our Secondary Roads Engineer. The submission of sketches and letter by Mr. Timmons has been reviewed carefully by our engineering staff, and every effort has been made to minimize the cost to Chesterfield County for adjustments to the highway system. It has however been necessary, in order to pro- tect the traveling public and the highway facility, that we require adequate safeguards wherever the reservoir will involve the highway system. Since Mr. Timmons' submission of the 16th he has been in confer- ence with Mr. Pond of the engineering staff for a full discussion of his submission, and Mr. Timmons has concurred with the engineering aspects as regards the protection of the highways. We therefore wish to submit the following information for your and Mr. Timmons' guidance: 1. The pool elevation could be raised provided the County is willing to make the necessary adjustments and provide the necessary protective measures which would assure the highway facilities' having essentially the same potential service to the highway user and not increasing our maintenance problems and expense. If it is your desire to raise the normal pool elevation to an elevation of 177, it will be necessary that the height of the berm be increased to a minimum elevation of 186. If it is your desire to go to an elevation above 177 A HIGHWAY IS AS SAFE AS THE USER MAKES IT n M Mr. M. W. Burnett - 2 - December 15, 1964 with the normal pool level, it will require the raising of present Route 360 and the revamping of the structures thereon accordingly. 2. Route 360 must be provided with adequate protection against wave action, saturation of the embankment by reservoir waters, and redesigning of the median in the vicinity of the bridges to assure protection of the approach fills against saturation and to provide adequate median drainage. 3. The Secondary roads involved in the reservoir area will have to be adjusted to provide the same degree of protection against wave action and saturation as provided for Route 360. We do, however, wish to call your attention to the fact that, if the County feels that Route 668 is not necessary for the travel patterns in the County, this Department will offer no objection to the abandonment thereof. Insofar as Route 604 is concerned, it will be necessary that a facility of equal design, alignment and gradewise, be arranged for, either through the raising of the existing road and structures or through a relocation beginning east of the reservoir and tying in again to Route 604 west of the reservoir. The desire line of traffic here is on Route 604. Therefore, it would be expected that traffic could traverse this route uninterrupted. 4. Where the embankments are to be raised, proper adjustments are to be made to the drainage structures in accordance with Highway Department methods and criteria. We wish especially to call attention to the fact that, where fills are to be increased over box culverts, these structures must be lengthened and the proper endwalls and wingwalls replaced in accordance with our standards. 5. Before work can be begun and before a full agreement can be consummated between the County and the Highway Department, we must be furnished with detailed working drawings and/or plans covering all of the adjustments to the highway facility and all of the protection to be provided therefor. This shall include details of all structure adjustments and other drain- age facilities. Upon approval of these and based upon these, a detailed agreement will be drawn up for execution by the Board and this Department. 6. In order to be of what assistance we can to the County, we will be glad to furnish the material testing for all of the materials which will be involved in the highway readjust- ments. This will include embankment material, fill material, n M Mr. M. W. Burnett - 3 - December 15, 1964 base material, steel, concrete, and sand, along with the necessary borings and/or collection of samples. It will be necessary, however, that we be furnished with information as to the source and location of these various materials. The cost for this testing will be borne by highway funds allo- cated for use within Chesterfield County. This letter, as you know, is in general terms. However, specifics have been carefully covered during Mr. Timmons' conference with Mr. Pond. Our engineering staff stand ready to be of any assistance we can in this matter and are perfectly willing to confer with your consultant at any time he so desires. Sincer y, 6✓� A.

BRYAN VICE PRESIDENT AND SECRETARY December 17, 1964 Mr. Melvin W. Burnett Executive Secretary of Chesterfield County Chester, Virginia Dear Mr. Burnett: RICHMOND, VIRGINIA 23217 AREA CODE 703 646-3111 �Z 1` You are, of course, aware of the second Urban Policy Conference being sponsored by the University of Richmond and The Brookings Institution. This conference, to be made up of approximately forty members, will consist of eight sessions at three week intervals commencing January 13, 1965, and continuing through June 9th. As a participant in the first conference held earlier this year and as a member of the committee making plans for the second conference, you are thoroughly familiar with its purpose and the schedule and format for each session. Enclosed are several copies of the schedule. This is an unusual opportunity for civic, business and govermental leaders to study and think aloud together about problems affecting our metropolitan area. Visiting experts will discuss in the morning hours of each session how these same problems have been approached in other metropolitan areas. During the afternoon hours, with the help of local special- ists and invited guests, the conference will consider possible solutions for our own area. Active participation by governmental leaders is essential to the success of the program. You are also aware that the first conference was made possible by a grant from The Old Dominion Foundation. Since this will not be available for the second conference, the estimated $10,000 budget believed necessary to defray the cost of the con- ference (including travel expenses and honoraria of visiting spe- cialists) is being financed by a few local industrial, business and banking firms as well as governmental units. To this end we have already received promises of $1000 each from four large busi- ness firms in the community and $500 each from three others. In addition, at its regular meeting held last Monday afternoon, the M En Mr. Melvin W. Burnett December 17, 1964 Page - 2 - Council of the City of Richmond appropriated $1,000 for the same purpose. At a dinner meeting of our Regional Planning Commission last November 18th, I mentioned to Mr. Harold T. Goyne, the Chair- man of your Board of Supervisors, our plans for organizing this second conference with special emphasis on local problems. I expressed the hope that representatives of Chesterfield County would be willing to help pay a portion of the cost of the program. He suggested that I take up the matter directly with you. We, of course, hope that you and possibly two members of your Board of Supervisors will be active and regular partici- pants. Other members of the Board and county officials will be invited to attend various of the sessions according to the topic being discussed. I will greatly appreciate your advising me as promptly as possible the extent to which we can count on support from Chesterfield County to help defray the cost of the conference. I am firmly convinced that all participants and their associates will get more than full value received for the cost involved. As I mentioned before, the City of Richmond has appropriated $1000. A letter similar to this will go to Henrico County with a request that it also be an active participant as well as a supporter of the conference. Sincerely yours, M 0 11niurruiig of Cr4monb Cr4mnnb. llirgtnia Offirr of tile Vrrsidrnt Mr. Melvin W. Burnette Executive Secretary Chesterfield Court House Virginia December 8, 1964 Dear Mel: As a participant in the 1964 Urban Policy Conference the University of Richmond and The Brookings Institution, to know that another Conference is being planned for 1965. jointly sponsored by you will be interested The first Conference, you will recall, was made possible by a generous grant from the Old Dominion Foundation. The 1965 Conference is being financed by a number of local industrial and business firms as well as governmental units. The previous Conference dealt with principles, theories, and new knowledge of urbanization. With this background the second Conference will focus more on local problems and possible solutions. To this end it is expected that there will be greater participation by officials of local governmental units as well as local experts and specialists. There will be eight seminars, with meetings every third Wednesday begin- ning January 13. The enclosed sheet gives the date and subject for each seminar. Each session will meet at the John Marshall Hotel from 10:00 a.m. to 3:30 p.m. and will include luncheon. In the morning period there will be visiting experts to present a broad analysis of the issues for each session and to discuss alterna- tive solutions reached in other areas. During the afternoon, presentations will be made by local specialists followed by general discussion by the conference participants, the visiting experts and local specialists. To insure success of the Conference, it is essential that top leadership of the community participate. Therefore, on behalf of the University of Richmond and The Brookings Institution it is a pleasure to extend to you an invitation to attend the 1965 Urban Policy Conference. I shall appreciate an early reply as to your interest and desire in becoming a participant. Sincerely, Georg M. Modlin President �a✓ 44#201 South Drive Richmond, Virginia 23225 (Telephone: BR 2-1724) Dec. 28, 1964 Hon. Raymond J. Britton, Member Chesterfield County Board of Supervisors 8300 Hull Street Road Richmond, Virginia Dear Mr. Britton: In accordance with your suggestion some weeks ago, I am writing for assistance in providing relief to me and to my neighbors on approximately 280' of Old Quarry Road. The enclosed sketch shows the area concerned. This pert of Old Quarry Road is a real eyesore and nuisance. It is ungraded., un- surfaced, and deeply rutted. Vehicles trying to avoid ruts have often damaged my property edging and drains. In wet weather South Drive drainage ditches are filled with silt washed out of the road. In dry weather a dust problem is created. As few as four to six vehicles daily have been observed using this particular sec- tion. With changes in the road net, the use has dropped. This was especially noticeable when Chippingham Parkway opened and local people no longer cut through to Cherokee Road. Old Quarry Road, which has only two very short blocks, is nei- ther a through street nor a link between through streets. No houses are entered from the section of concern here. We are desirous of some feasible and equitable form of relief. Conceivably, this 280' section (which has both 20' and 50' widths of right-of-way) could be graded and surfaced in its present widths, or the road could be widened throughout and then graded and surfaced. However, the Department of Highways will not accept 20' widths for inclusion in its road system. And, if the County obtained enough right-of-way for widening the 20' segment to State standards, the road would come as close as 5' to my house and nearly that to my neighbor's house across the road. The enclosed sketch and photograph show this. No matter how this section of road were widened, our houses would surely suffer in reduced value with a road so close to the buildings. None of the four home owners whose property abuts this section would object if the existing widths could be paved. However, the simplest relief would be provided by closing the north end of the road. This, also, would be agreeable to all of the abutting property owners. Few other people would be affected. Presumably, this is the reason the subdivider of the adjoining plat was not required to grade and surface the 200' of the section which lies within his plat. (I would add that my house was built long before the subdivision or the surrounding area were develop- ed, and the house across the road was built well before the subdivision.) I appreciate your offer to review the situation, and would welcome further dis- cussion at your convenience.
