achievement and graduation rates are at an all-time high. He

classroom instruction or administrative school operations; no
programs are proposed for reduction or .elimination; and there
is a proposed one-time, 2 percent payment for all eligible
employees. He further stated this budget includes a $6
million reduction in funding from Chesterfield County. He
stated efficient management, additional cuts to central
office positions and facilities services, and saving have
allowed the School Board to provide employees with a one-time
2 percent salary adjustment to offset a 2 percent pay cut. He
stated Chesterfield County Public schools continues to
receive fewer dollars allocated per student than any
comparable school division in the state. He reviewed
expenditure changes: the governor's amendments increased the
VRS rate from 9.53 percent to 12.76 percent; facilities
reduction of overtime and materials; increasing numbers of
staff electing retirement options have reduced salary and
benefit costs; a number of retirements in central office
functions has permitted reductions; and a one-time 2 percent
payment is planned for employees. He reviewed the FY2013
outlook: $12 million of federal jobs funding will not be
available; annual savings appropriated for future budgets
will likely reduce as a result of continued budget
reductions; local funding projection uncertain; any increases
in state funding will likely be offset by increases in
benefit costs; and projected shortfall of $15 to $20 million.
He presented the FY2012-2016 approved Capital Improvement
Plan, which includes no new schools; maintains and maximizes
usage of existing facilities; additional seating for

an all time high based on last year.

vehicle prices edge higher; housing woes constrain growth;

projections, indicating that the forecast is generally flat;
further deterioration iri homes prices; offset by traction in
local consumer spending; a turnaround in state budget
outlook; and developed within the existing rate structure. He
stated in regards to the revenue outlook summary, it is a
battle to see how long the resilient consumer can continue to

In Midlothian Magisterial District, Chesterfield County Board
of Supervisors propose conditional use and amendment of
zoning district map to permit a private school and child care
center on 7 acres plus conditional use planned development to
permit a second freestanding sign on .4 acres of 7 acre tract
in a Residential (R-15) District fronting 170 feet on the
east line of Dolfield Drive, 1160 feet on the south line of
West Huguenot Road, 370 feet on the west line of Dillon Road
and 720 feet on the north line of Ashburn Road. Density will
be controlled by zoning conditions or Ordinance standards.
The Comprehensive Plan suggests the property is appropriate
for public/semi-public and medium density residential use of
1.51 to 4.0 units/acre. Tax IDs 745-718-8153, 8959 and 9765;

Mr. Mike Janosik presented a summary of Case 11SN0172 and
stated the Planning Commission recommended approval of the
conditional use to permit a private school or child care
center and second freestanding sign subject to the
conditions. He further stated staff recommended approval of
the conditional use to permit a private school or child care
center, and recommended denial of the conditional use planned
development to permit a second freestanding sign for the
following reasons: the zoning ordinance permits one
11-120
freestanding church identification sign to be located on
site; approval of this request would further exceed the
limitations established by the ordinance; and an alternative
exists to this request. He noted there was support present
for the private school noting that the school had operated
for over thirty-seven years and should continue. He also
noted opposition was expressed regarding the second sign as
it would set a precedent;. would lead to sign proliferation;
and that an alternative exists.

The purpose of the district is to provide high quality

located within the District. This tax is in addition to the
real estate tax imposed on real estate in the county pursuant
to the county's annual tax levy.

years. The supplemental real estate tax of $0.03 per $100 of
assessed value shall expire on December 31, 2021.
Section 9-270. Benefits That Can Be Expected From The
Project.
This image, attractiveness, and quality of this service
area will improve. This area is a gateway to Chesterfield
County. This project will provide benefit to properties
throughout the District. Customers, employees, residents,
and visitors to the businesses in the District form
impressions of the businesses and properties within the
District based on the appearance and condition of Midlothian
Turnpike. A quality landscaping installation, streetscape
improvements, and a high quality of maintenance on the
Midlothian Turnpike median will provide a positive image and
J
J
J
11-125
appearance for the property and businesses within the
District.

business area and .preventing blight and deterioration.

the land records of the Clerk of the Circuit Court of
Chesterfield County so as to place subsequent purchasers of
any property located in the District on notice of the
supplemental real estate tax imposed pursuant hereto.
