WORK SESSION - WATER EXTENSION POLICY/NEN SUBDIVISIONS Mr. Ramsey stated the purpose of the work session was to provide the Board with information regarding the extension of public water to new subdivisions. Mr. Sale explained that recent problems with well failures experienced throughout areas of the County brought this issue to the forefront for consideration. He explained further that staff also considered policy formulation for the extension of public sewer service but does not consider the lack of public sewer service to be a problem now that the County requires two septic field sites per lot in new subdivisions. Mr. Welchons presented a brief overview of the proposed policy for extension of public water to new subdivisions, the cri- teria, etc. Discussion and questions ensued regarding the recommended policy; the criteria for requiring use of public water versus use of well systems; the depth requirement for drainfield systems; State Health Department requirements as they relate to sewer/water service installation; the cost of public water 87-690 versus the cost of installing well and septic systems; the Board's prerogative for denying zoning requests that do not meet the criteria set forth, the initiation of a mechanism to make "developer expense" more equitable; the development of a funding plan to finance the extension of public water and/or sewer; the County's responsibility to ensure the health, safety and welfare of County residents; etc. The Board generally agreed that public water shall be provided in all proposed subdivisions to protect and ensure the continu- ed health, safety and general welfare of County residents; that the burden of expense for public water and/or sewer should be borne by the new growth in the County which is the new home- owner/developer; to authorize the forwarding of a subdivision ordinance amendment to the Planning Commission regarding the extension of public water to new subdivisions for deliberation and to set the date of November 12, 1987, for a public hearing for the Board's consideration of the Planning Commission's recommendation on this matter; and that input from members of the development community and homebuilders' association be requested in this matter. The Board requested staff identify and provide them with maps/information regarding geological areas within the County that will not handle well and/or septic tank/drainfield systems. 2.

BEARINGS OF CITIZENS ON UNSC~RDULRD MATTERS OR CLAIMS o MRS. NANCY BURNETT AND OTHERS - REGARDING RENTAL OF SCHOOL BUILDINGS TO Y.M.C.A. Mrs. Jackie Coleman, representing approximately 42 private child care centers in the County, stated the consortium of Day Care Centers feels the recent action of the School Board in allowing rental of the school facilities to the Y.M.C.A. for before and after school child care is direct, unfair competi- tion with their businesses. There were several members of the day care center industry present. She stated no notice was given to private businesses so they could become a part of such a program and no advertisement was made of the contracts to be awarded. She stated owners of County day care centers feel that a program for underprivileged, latch-key children should be promoted and they would welcome the opportunity to bid on such a program; however, permitting the Y.M.C.A. to lease school facilities for such a program, without strict controls, is in direct competition with and detrimental to their pro- grams. She stated there are ongoing committee discussions/ef- forts with the Chesterfield County Department of Mental Health and Preventive Services toward piloting a special program for economically disadvantaged children. She stated the day care center owners are asking for strict controls, an in-depth evaluation of the program and that a determination be made as to what percentage of this program's enrollment would be actually be disadvantaged children, as they feel the bulk of Y.M.C.A. enrollment would be children who could use their day care center programs. 87-693 Mr. Daniel stated it is not the policy of the Board to respond to citizens' comments; however, he felt it would be appropriate to suspend the rules to permit individual Board comment on this matter. Mr. Applegate raised points of concerns regarding business licenses to operate the program, proper insurance, property damage, cost of rental of the buildings and the lack of a bid system for the program. He stated, although he is a supporter of the Y.M.C.A., he felt the School Board should have consulted the Board of Supervisors prior to the implementation of this program. He suggested that the Board of Supervisors advise the Y.M.C.A. that this Board was not consulted with respect to implementation of this program and did not endorse it, as the School Board should have discussed the matter with the Board of Supervisors prior to entering into an agreement with the Y .M .C .A. Mr. Daniel stated the Board of Supervisors and School Board had made a joint decision, which transpired after considerable public discussion at an earlier date, not to use the school facilities for after-school day care centers and he felt this information, as well as the fact that this proposal was origi- nated without a formal Request for Proposals should be included. Mr. Dodd concurred with Mr. Applegate's and Mr. Daniel's statements and seconded the motion. He stated neither he nor the School Board representative from the Bermuda District requested or endorsed this program. He expressed concern that this is a bad policy for the County which will increase expen- ses and generate a significant deficit for the next three years which the Board will have to address/resolve. Mrs. Girone stated she is currently a member of the Y.M.C.A. Board of Directors; however, she was neither a member at the time this action transpired nor was she involved in its imple- mentation. On motion of Mr. Applegate, seconded by Mr. Dodd, the Board of Supervisors formally directed the Chairman of the Board to advise the School Board and the Y.M.C.A. that it does not endorse the program of renting school facilities to the Y.M.C.A. for before and after school child care, because of system concerns regarding the Request for Proposals, insurance, property damage, cost of rental, etc.; and the Board of Supervisors does not understand why this action was taken in view of the joint agreement not to use the schools for after school day care programs. Ayes: Mr. Daniel, Mr. Mayes, Mr. Applegate and Mr. Dodd. Abstention: Mrs. Girone, as she wished to discuss the matter with the Y.M.C.A. Mr. Daniel requested the Clerk research the records for the information relative to the joint agreement. It was generally agreed to recess for several minutes. Reconvening: 12. DEFERRED ITEMS 12.A.

Mr. Mayes stated approval of the R-88 classification provides a mechanism whereby those interested in development in the southern portion of the County make certain that such development will be quality.

TO CONSIDER AN ORDINANCE AMENDING CHAPTER 5 OF THE CODE OF THE COUNTY OF CHESTERFIELD RELATING TO DOGS KILLING OTHER DOMESTIC ANIMALS OTHER THAN LIVESTOCK OR POULTRY Chief Pittman stated this date and time had been advertised for a public hearing to consider an ordinance to amend the County Code, relating to dogs killing other domestic animals other than livestock or poultry. He stated the proposed ordinance is in response to many calls the Police Department has received expressing concerns that the County ordinance did not sufficiently address this matter and should be expanded to the maximum extent permitted by State law. Ms. Karen Cundiff, a resident of Richmond, requested a definition as to what is considered a vicious dog and inquired if certain breeds of dogs are classified by the proposed ordinance. 87-708 Mr. Daniel stated the proposed ordinance does not define a specific breed and would therefore be applicable to all breeds of dogs. He stated the proposed ordinance establishes the County's policy for permitting the Animal Control Department to destroy dogs found to be killing domestic animals as well as livestock. Mr. Micas stated the existing ordinance is appli- cable only to the destruction of dogs found to be killing livestock and the purpose of this proposal is to expand the ordinance to permit the destruction of dogs believed to be killing domestic animals as well as livestock. Mr. Lawrence Mallory inquired if the "pit bull" terrier breed is classified by this ordinance as a vicious dog. Mr. Daniel stated he wished to clarify that no legislation in Chesterfield County has ever identified a specific breed of dog as vicious; however, legislation in the City of Richmond has isolated the "pit bull" terrier as a specific breed and any questions with respect to that matter should be addressed to the Richmond City Council. Ms. Marie Chapin inquired why an animal has to kill a child or another animal before it is considered vicious and stated she felt an animal could be considered vicious long before such incidents occur. Mr. Micas stated approval of the proposed ordinance will broaden the County ordinance to the maximum extent permitted by State law. He stated State law stipulates that to impound and destroy an animal for killing livestock or other animals the act must be habitual and involve the killing of animals. He stated, with respect to the the biting of human beings, the law in Chesterfield requires that said act must occur more than once; to seize and destroy a dog does not require that killing a human being occur, only the attack by the animal. Ms. Chapin stated, although the public hearing does not address breeds of vicious animals, she would like this Board to consider that vicious breeds exist and that the Board should consider estab- lishing a policy addressing animals such as "pit bulls" or others that are considered and/or bred to be vicious. Mr. Mayes inquired if there is an existing ordinance prohibit- ing the destruction of gardens, shrubbery, etc., by livestock and poultry. Mr. Micas stated there is a "fence law" which states that if a certain type of livestock extends beyond a property line and causes damage its owner can be subjected to a misdemeanor penalty. Mr. Micas stated poultry is not regulated by the "fence law"; however, staff is preparing an ordinance provision for the Board's consideration. Mr. Dodd stated he did not want to see the County become involved in the "pit bull" terrier controversy as he felt it would be proven that other breeds of dogs can be considered just as vicious. On motion of Mr. Dodd, seconded by Mr. Mayes, the Board adopted the following ordinance: AN ORDINANCE TO AMEND CHAPTER 5 OF THE CODE OF THE COUNTY OF CHESTERFIELD, 1978, AS AMENDED BY ADDING SECTION 5-11.1, RELATING TO DOGS KILLING OTHER DOMESTIC ANIMALS OTHER THAN LIVESTOCK OR POULTRY BE IT ORDAINED by the Board of Supervisors of Chesterfield County: (1) That the Code of the County of Chesterfield, 1978, as amended, is amended by adding Section 5-11.1 as follows: Section 5-11.1. Dogs killing other domestic animals other than livestock or poultry. It shall be the duty of any animal warden who has reason to believe that any dog is killing other dogs or domestic 87-709 animals, other than livestock or poultry, to confine the dog. The animal warden shall apply to a magistrate of the County who shall issue a warrant requiring the owner or custodian, if known, to appear before a general district court at a time and place named therein, at which time evidence shall be heard. If it shall appear that such a dog has habitually killed other dogs or domestic animals, the dog shall be ordered killed immediately by the warden or other officer designated by the judge. For similar state law, see Code of Virginia. Section 29-213.86. Vote: Unanimous Mr. Daniel stated he felt the ordinance had been broadened to the maximum extent permitted by State law and promulgates the strongest language permissible. 13.E. TO CONSIDER AN ORDINANCE TO AMEND AND REENACT CHAPTER 7 OF THE CODE OF THE COUNTY OF CHESTERFIELD RELATING TO CABLE TELEVISION SYSTEMS AND CONSIDERATION OF CERTAIN FRANCHISE AGREEMENT CHANGES Mr. Hammer stated this date and time had been advertised for a public hearing to consider an ordinance to amend the County Code, relating to cable television systems and consideration of certain franchise agreement changes. No one came forward to speak in favor of or against the propos- ed ordinance. There was no opposition present. Mr. Applegate inquired if an extension of the franchise has been requested. Mr. Hammer stated a request for extension of the franchise was submitted; however, this agreement does not provide for an extension and that issue will be considered at a later date. Mr. Applegate added he had received an increased number of citizen complaints regarding Storer Cable service. Mrs. Girone suggested that consideration be given to recording the School Board meetings as there has been public interest expressed for such action. Mr. Dodd concurred with the suggestion. Mr. Daniel stated he felt it proper that a letter be drafted for his signature to Mr. MacNeilly of Storer Cable suggesting that the public process be opened and that the government access channel also transmit the School Board meetings. The Board raised questions concerning the timeliness of the request for approval of cable franchise changes after said changes were already implemented; expressed concerns that Federal law has removed many of the negotiated items within the franchise agreement and suggested it would be appropriate for the Attorney's office to review this, in light of Federal legislation, such as those items that are program related which should no longer be submitted for the Board's consideration; the utilization of the mobile studio van to provide coverage of County events; the possibility of increasing the franchise fee; etc. Mr. Micas stated the Board may, under the County's franchise agreement, continue to control programatic changes. Mr. Mayes stated he has observed much improvement in services in the past several years and he is receiving far less complaints. On motion of Mr. Applegate, seconded by Mrs. Girone, the Board approved the following programatic changes: 1. The consolidation of the public, educational and government channels into one public channel to make more efficient and 87-710 productive use of channel space. In exchange Storer will provide expanded Board meeting coverage if elected by the County. Storer will also replace the two consolidate access channels with "C-Span II" and "Discovery"; 2. The replacement WYAH with the "Nostalgia" channel; 3. The elimination of the mobile studio van because of its lack of use and the need to make effective and efficient use of resources; And further the Board adopted the following ordinance: AN ORDINANCE TO AMEND AND REENACT CHAPTER 7 OF THE CODE OF THE COUNTY OF CHESTERFIELD, 1978, RELATING TO CABLE TELEVISION SYSTEMS BE IT ORDAINED by the Board of Supervisors of Chesterfield County: (1) That the Code of the County of Chesterfield, 1978, as amended, is amended and reenacted by amending Chapter 7 as follows: Sec. 7-1.

O O O Vote: Unanimous 13.F.

No one came forward to speak in favor of or against the proposed ordinance. Mr. Daniel submitted a letter from the Retail Merchants' Association reaffirming their support of the proposed ordinance. On motion of Mr. Applegate, seconded by Mr. Dodd, the Board adopted the following ordinance: AN ORDINANCE TO AMEND AND REENACT CHAPTER 12 OF THE CODE OF THE COUNTY OF CHESTERFIELD, 1978, RELATING TO LICENSES BE IT ORDAINED by the Board of Supervisors of Chesterfield County: (1) That Chapter 12, Articles I, XIII, and XIV of the Code of the County of Chesterfield, 1978, as amended, is amended and reenacted by repealing, amending and adding the following Sections: Article I.
