Department of Health (VDH) such as training, one-on-one
support, and volunteering when and where needed. He reviewed
the Vaccine Administration and Reporting System (VARS)
dashboard and the timeline of contributed resources. He
provided statistics relative to the county fairgrounds Point
of Dispensing (POD) site, noting an average of 18.6 minutes
onsite, including the fifteen -minute waiting period, per
vaccination. He stated nine fewer volunteers per clinic are
needed because of the automation. He recognized Mr. Mark
Pinney, the Parks and Recreation manager of the county
fairgrounds, for suggesting the implementation of a customer
satisfaction survey. He stated the POD has received a customer
rating of 4.96 out 5, and he shared a few survey responses
praising the efficiency of the POD. He thanked the Board and
many other partners who have put in a great deal of work to
provide this outstanding level of service.
Mr. Winslow acknowledged the unique role IST has played in the
vaccination effort. He praised the entire IST team and stated
the statistics need to be shared with the public.
Mr. Carroll concurred with Mr. Winslow and stated he received
positive feedback about the operation. He further stated the
statistics of those vaccinated to date speak to the
collaboration that took place within all the departments. He
expressed thanks on behalf of constituents.
Mr. Holland expressed his appreciation for the hard work
3.8. FIRE AND EMERGENCY MEDICAL SERVICES
Chesterfield Fire and EMS (CFEMS) Chief Loy Senter provided
the Board with an update on the activities of CFEMS during
FY2020. He shared statistics of recruitment and retention,
noting the five-year average turnover rate is 6.8 percent and,
for the first time, pursuit of other employment opportunities
surpassed normal service retirements as the reason for
separation. He thanked the Board for its strong support of the
new public safety pay plan and stated both phases have been
fully implemented. He further stated 168 firefighters have
advanced in career development, thereby eliminating waitlists
in the future. He was pleased to report that total turnover
has dropped to 2.8 percent in the current fiscal year. He
stated the department was able to safely hold a joint
graduation ceremony for members of four separate recruit
schools for whom previously planned ceremonies had been delayed
due to COVID-19. He provided details of a special graduation
ceremony for Firefighter Recruit Kyle Walden who encountered
challenges which prevented him from advancing in his recruit
school. He stated Firefighter Recruit Walden worked hard on
21-206
4/28/2021
Dr. Casey
stated IST does
much more
than vaccinations, and the
employees
present are an example
of those employees that
supervise
and work hard
in those
divisions. He noted that,
throughout
the vaccination process,
each customer had contact
with many
departments who
made them
feel welcome.
3.8. FIRE AND EMERGENCY MEDICAL SERVICES
Chesterfield Fire and EMS (CFEMS) Chief Loy Senter provided
the Board with an update on the activities of CFEMS during
FY2020. He shared statistics of recruitment and retention,
noting the five-year average turnover rate is 6.8 percent and,
for the first time, pursuit of other employment opportunities

4/28/2021
his own to overcome adversity and proudly returned with his
Emergency Medical Technician certificate, which resulted in
his reinstatement into the department. He discussed current
staffing levels and efforts to reduce reliance on overtime to
cover minimum staffing needs. He provided details of awards
and recognitions received by the department and Dr. Allen Yee,
who received the Excellence in Emergency Medical Services Award
from the Old Dominion EMS Alliance. He stated Dr. Yee went on
to receive top honors and recently received the Governor's
! Award for Excellence in EMS. He further stated Dr. Yee
(`r+ continues to excel in leading improvements in EMS not only in
Chesterfield but also across the commonwealth and nation as
well. He stated having Dr. Yee on board has been paramount
during the pandemic. He reviewed FY2020 call volume and service
demands which experienced a slight drop during the pandemic.
He stated throughout FY2021 demand has returned to pre -pandemic
levels and current end -of -year projections suggest a 3.9
percent increase over FY2020 levels. He provided statistics of
FY2020 patient transports which experienced a 0.4 percent
decrease overall. He also provided statistics on unique patient
populations such as those served by Mobile Integrated Health
(MIH), Naloxone administrations, and opioid patients. He
discussed FY2020 mutual aid provided and received. He stated
the significant increases in mutual aid provided to the
counties of Amelia and Dinwiddie are attributable to the
financial and political realities of increased demand and
declining volunteer participation, while the increase in mutual
aid to the City of Richmond is attributable to civil unrest.
He discussed changes to the regional numbering system and
stated Chesterfield will transition to the new system with the
implementation of the new computer aided dispatch system very
soon. He stated the newest service level enhancement, Magnolia
Green Fire and EMS Station, became fully operational in mid-
December, and he provided statistics of incident responses. He
provided an update on the construction of the new Midlothian
Fire and EMS Station which is projected to open in late FY2022.
He also provided an update on two study and research
initiatives that began in FY2020. He stated the deployment and
staffing project being conducted by Emergency Services
Consulting International (SCSI) is now on its third project
manager, and they are working to ensure proper alignment of
data in consistent five-year study periods as well as more
robust analysis in support of recommendations for the future.
He stated the completed report is expected in mid- to late -
summer of 2021. with regard to the second initiative - the
Emergency Triage, Treat, and Transport (ET3) Model sponsored
by the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services - he stated
the county has been delayed due to pandemic -related activities,
including vaccine administration. He further stated required
contracts are being secured for telemedicine, treat in place,
and alternative destination options. He stated the revised
start-up date is projected for late May or early June 2021. He
further stated the department has not yet implemented the
treat/no transport fee authorized by the Board in December
2020, and, accordingly, there is no data to report. He reviewed
some of the many challenges over the last several months,
including the 700 Year Flood, the vaccination effort, the ice
storm, and a recent multi -fatal fire, all of which occurred
during a worldwide pandemic. He expressed pride in the way his
members have risen to meet these many and varied demands and
21-207
4/28/2021
challenges, and he thanked them all for their unparalleled
service to the community. He stated for the remainder of FY2021
much attention will be given to the relatively new and emerging
issue of hospital diversion and patient flow within hospitals.
He discussed hospital staffing challenges and the struggle to
reopen closed units now that demand has returned to pre -
pandemic levels. He announced that station visits, ride -a -
longs, and recruit school graduations have been restored. He
stated as soon as state limitations are lifted, the department
will move forward with the Magnolia Green Fire Station j
dedication, promotion ceremonies, awards ceremonies, and Fire
Prevention Week activities. He further stated after July 1,
2021, the department plans to begin semi-annual briefings with
each Board member on incident activity by magisterial district.
In closing, he thanked the Board for its continuing support of
CFEMS.
In response to Mr. Holland's request for an update on the
recent tragic fire which occurred in the Dale District, Chief
Senter stated investigators continue their work and are
awaiting final reports from the medical examiner's office. He
further stated the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and
Explosives (ATF) has been engaged to model the building and
examine how the fire progressed. He stated the firefighters
who responded to the call have all returned to work and there
were no injuries. He further stated the department has a peer
support mechanism, and Ms. Kelly Fried, Director of Mental
Health Support Services, has offered any assistance the
firefighters may need as well. He stated he is hopeful that in
the next couple of weeks the cause of the fire can be released,
but it is still too early in the investigation to release some
of that information.
Mr. Holland stated there is a Go Fund Me page to support the
family, and he thanked Chief Senter for the update.
3.C. COVID-19 UPDATE
Dr. James Worsley, Deputy County Administrator, provided the
Board with an update on the COVID-19 vaccination effort. He
shared some positive feedback received from vaccination clinic
customers. He stated Virginia is now in Phase 2, with
eligibility open to everyone age 16 or older. He further stated
anyone who preregistered in Phase 1 has either been offered a
vaccination appointment already or will be by April 30th. He
stated citizens should continue to visit
vaccinate.virginia.gov or call 877 -VAX -IN -VA to get
vaccinated. He provided details of the Fifth Amended Executive
Order 72 which became effective April 21, 2021, and the Sixth
Amended Executive Order 72 which will become effective May 15,
2021. He reviewed available county resources to assist citizens
with obtaining the vaccine. He presented a brief promotional
video produced by the Department of Communications and Media
explaining why citizens age 18 to 54 should get the COVID-19
vaccine. He thanked the many partners and volunteers who have
helped with vaccination effort. He provided the Board with an
update on Parks and Recreation summer camps which will include
virtual and in-person programming. He stated the County
Reopening Task Force has started the process of studying how
21-208
4/28/2021
best to open the county and bring back employees in a safe
manner. He then introduced Dr. Alexander Samuel, Director of
the VDH Chesterfield Health District (CHD), to provide an
update on vaccine supply and distribution planning.
Dr. Samuel described the flow of the vaccine into the CHO and
provided statistics of weekly first and second doses over the
past two weeks. He stated he is expecting ample supply to meet
demand as well as enough supply to reach the county's goals
through the various vaccine channels. He further stated the
CHD is poised to focus more intently on vulnerable and
underserved populations. He stated vaccine supply and access
points are now sufficient to move away from preregistration,
and he recommended citizens self -schedule at
vaccinefinder.org. He further stated the Virginia State
University (VSU) Community Vaccination Center (CVC) will be
the principal large public vaccination site through the end of
May, and access to CVC appointments are shifting to self -
schedule through vaccinefinder.org. He provided a list of
targeted events through faith -based organizations to reach
underserved and reluctant populations and stated other
approaches including mobile options are in development. He
provided details of factors to monitor which are evidence of
change in vaccine demand by the public; success of vaccination
publicity campaigns among reluctant groups; vaccine supply
availability, which is expected to increase; need for
additional geographically dispersed dispensing sites; and need
to deploy diverse dispensing modalities such as walk-up and
self -scheduled.
Mr. Ingle acknowledged how far the county and CHD have come in
such a short time and he thanked Dr. Samuel for his handling
of the vaccine rollout.
Dr. Samuel stated it has been a fantastic collaboration and it
could not have been done without the support of county assets
and resources.
Chief Senter then provided the Board with an update on the
county government's vaccination efforts and statistics of
total doses administered since December 23, 2020.
Mr. Winslow expressed his appreciation for the MIH program
which assisted some of his bedbound constituents.
Chief Senter stated 60,000 doses have been administered to the
community by the county government and CHD combined. He further
stated the mass vaccination center at VSU has been a
gamechanger, and he provided details of the operation which
has been extended to the end of May 2021. He reviewed the
current Community Vaccination Goal dashboard and stated the
county is at 70.44 percent of its newly revised goal which was
adjusted to include Phase 2 (16 and older) populations.
Dr. Casey stated the county is trying to be transparent with
its citizens by including the 16 and older population in the
calculation of the goal. He explained that the county moved
down a notch or two in the rankings because it has probably
one of the largest concentrations of young people amongst those
peer localities. He discussed the correlation of COVID-19-
21-209
4/28/2021
related deaths and older populations and stated virtually
everyone over the age of 60 has been availed a vaccine.
Chief Senter closed by encouraging everyone to take a look at
the dashboard and reach out with any questions.
Mr. Ingle thanked Chief Senter and his team for their efforts
as part of the larger team. He stated at this time fully
vaccinated residents of Chesterfield County are actually
number one in the state for populations over 200,000. He
inquired if doses administered through the federal programs J
are now being registered by the state so the county knows
whether the numbers are accurate or if they could be higher.
Dr. Casey stated about three to five percent of the population
of Virginia receiving the vaccine was not recorded by locality.
He further stated he did not have the answer as to how much of
that has been through state or federal programs or how much is
underreported for Chesterfield. He stated when looking at the
dashboard, three to five percent could be added at any point
in time to get a comfort for what is occurring. He introduced
Ms. Jess Robison, Emergency Management Coordinator for CFEMS,
to provide additional insight.
Ms. Robison stated the federal partnership program is merely
the inject of where the vaccines are coming from. She further
stated the vaccines still have to be registered in the Virginia
Immunization Information System (VIIS), which is where the
dashboard derives its data. She stated while the county may
not know where a person got their vaccine, it does know they
were vaccinated. She further stated it is possible some people
at the beginning may have been missed because address or
locality were not required information.
Mr. Ingle clarified he was really asking about doses
administered at places like Fort Lee, McGuire Veterans
Hospital, and the Defense Logistics Agency (DLA) and inquired
if those are put into the state system.
Ms. Robison stated any Virginia resident who receives a vaccine
will be put into VIIS.
Mr. Carroll thanked Chief Senter and his staff for all their
hard work.
Mr. Holland thanked Dr. Worsley, Dr. Samuel, Chief Senter, and
Dr. Casey for their leadership.
Chief Senter introduced Mr. Dan Cohen, Director of Community
Enhancement, to provide an update on the county's Emergency
Rental Assistance (ERA) program.
Mr. Cohen reviewed the sources of funds for the ERA program
and the county's partnership with Area Congregations Together
in Service (ACTS) and Homeward to administer those funds. He
introduced Mr. Nick Feucht, Real Estate Development and Housing
Coordinator, to provide additional details about the program.
Mr. Feucht stated approximately $5 million was awarded to ACTS,
approximately $3 million of which has been distributed to date.
21-210
4/28/2021
He further stated the average award is approximately $4,000,
or three months of rent, per person, for roughly 1,300 people.
He stated the program pays for rental arrears which enables
people to avoid eviction and not be in a hole once the eviction
moratorium is lifted. He further stated no single geographic
location has received a majority of the funding because the
pandemic has affected people all across the county. He stated
the program keeps landlords from going into foreclosure, and
he discussed how some landlords are utilizing property managers
to help tenants qualify for assistance. He stated the next
round of funding will have slightly different rules, goals,
and lines to cross. He further stated the county was able to
target funds to prevent and mitigate homelessness by offering
assistance to regional homeless shelters; housing
stabilization; and flexible financial assistance.
Mr. Winslow stated he is looking forward to receiving a report
on the tracking of results to see what does and does not work
and where further investments should be made.
3.D. ENERGY MANAGEMENT PROGRAM UPDATE
Mr. Clay Bowles, Director of General Services, provided the
Board with an update on the Energy Management Program. He
recognized Ms. Julia Reynolds, Energy Management
Administrator, and credited the program's successes to her
dedication and effort. He reviewed the mission of the program
which is to facilitate efforts to improve energy efficiency
and sustainability in keeping with the energy pyramid. He
stated the program supports Schools and Utilities which are
the other largest energy consumers outside of county government
operations. He provided details of the focus on fundamentals
of the program which are data analysis, contract
administration, demand response program, energy efficiency
program, rate evaluations, utility bill audits, Cfield
Unplugged, facilities design, fleet vehicle alternative fuel
programs, and VACo Go Green Program. He provided data of FY18-
20 Energy Expenditures and Consumption. He stated without
question the most recent data and the data to be seen at the
end of FY2021 are impacted by the pandemic and may not present
an apples -to -apples snapshot of utilization. He further stated
factors such as rate changes from providers, supply and demand,
weather, and governmental regulations all play in to where the
numbers ultimately land at the end of the year, but the
expenditures are relatively flat over the period. He
highlighted current initiatives, the first of which is
retrofitting existing streetlights with LED lighting packages
to achieve longevity of the equipment and long-term cost
savings. He stated a major maintenance project will begin in
FY2022 for exterior lighting enhancements which will enhance
security, remove maintenance -intensive infrastructure, and
lower costs by implementing energy efficient equipment. He
discussed the third initiative, which was suggested by Mr.
Winslow, to evaluate harmonic filters at Ettrick Library. He
stated these devices mitigate the negative impact of abnormal
power loads which can lead to inefficient distribution and
increased energy costs. He announced the largest initiative
involves solar energy, and the county is partnering with
Schools to evaluate 17 potential sites for a solar program. He
21-211
4/28/2021
stated the project would be accomplished through a power
purchase agreement in which a third -party developer owns,
operates and maintains the solar system. He further stated the
county would agree to site the system on county property and
purchase the output from the provider for a pre -determined
period, thereby allowing the county to receive stable and low-
cost electricity while the provider acquires valuable
financial benefits such as tax credit and any income generated
from the sale of the electricity. He stated ultimately the
primary gain for the county is long-term rate stability. He i
further stated staff is currently performing due diligence J
tasks and hopes to return to the Board with more details in
the near future.
In response to Mr. Carroll's question relative to the process
for generating and monitoring the energy, Mr. Bowles explained
that utility power would not be removed even though most of
the power will derive from the solar equipment. He stated
equipment will be in the building to manage the process. He
then reviewed the county's Environmental Stewardship webpage
which provides excellent information about the environmental
and sustainability efforts of numerous departments in several
categories.
3.E. UPDATE ON IMPLEMENTATION OF NEW COMPUTER AIDED
DISPATCH AND RECORDS MANAGEMENT SYSTEMS
Mr. Tommy Tucker, Director of the Emergency Communications
Center (ECC) , provided the Board with an update on the new
Motorola Solutions PremierOne Computer Aided Dispatch (CAD)
System, Records Management System (RMS), and Jail Management
System (JMS). He stated the Premierone CAD go -live date is set
for May 25, 2021, and the Police RMS go -live date is set for
early July 2021. He further stated the Sheriff JMS go -live is
on hold pending Motorola's resolution of programming issues to
address sentencing guidelines for prisoners. He stated all
interfaces needed for the May 25 go -live will be ready for
implementation; new police call signs and the Falling Creek
precinct will be in place before CAD go -live; and CFEMS will
implement the regional numbering system at CAD go -live. He
announced the project remains on budget. He provided details
of system improvements and benefits including an information
sharing suite, so all departments have access to the data in
CAD. He stated automatic vehicle location (AVL) dispatching
allows the closest officer, medic unit, or fire engine to be
dispatched to a call as opposed to a geographical,
predetermined, card -based system. He further stated MDC
mapping will be upgraded, and CAD and mapping changes can be
made instantaneously. He discussed expanded call dispatching
protocols, a new paging and notification system, and drag -and -
drop functionality for the 911 operators. He reviewed several
system improvements and benefits for Police personnel, one of
which is the ability to track an officer by their handheld
device once they leave their vehicle. He provided details of
the Spidr Tech interface which provides text message updates
about calls for service as well as a link for an optional
satisfaction survey upon conclusion of the service. He then
discussed the timeline for completion of the radio project and
tower installation. He stated six new towers are in the process
21-212
4/28/2021
of being constructed, and ECC console replacement and
installation of new radio equipment is in progress. He further
stated construction will continue through May 2022, and
coverage and acceptance testing are slated for summer 2022
during full foliage. He stated in 2023 the system will be
turned on and tested including in -building coverage, and full
acceptance is anticipated in January 2024.
Mr. Winslow expressed his excitement for the public safety
team. He stated the tracking of information, the ability to
reallocate resources on demand, and updating citizens on the
status of their calls for service are impressive and valuable
improvements.
Mr. Carroll stated the technology has come a long way and it
will make a big difference in the provision of police services.
In response to Mr. Carroll's question relative to compatibility
of the current handheld radios with the new system, Mr. Tucker
stated the current radios will work with the new system.
Mr. Holland praised the significant customer service
enhancements and thanked Mr. Tucker for the report.
3.F. UPDATE ON KEY FINANCIAL INDICATORS DASHBOARD
Mr. Matt Harris, Deputy County Administrator, stated the old
process of compiling and producing the quarterly Key Financial
Indicators Report often resulted in stale data. He announced
the Key Financial Indicators Dashboard is now live and publicly
available on the county's website and, accordingly, paper
copies will no longer be published. He then introduced Mr.
Shane Hill, Data Analyst, to provide the Board with a
demonstration of the dashboard.
Mr. Hill stated the Key Financial Indicators Report began in
2018 at the request of Mr. Holland.
In response to Mr. Ingle's question relative to the location
of the dashboard on the county's website, Mr. Hill suggested
either clicking the link on the Budget and Management webpage
or typing chestertield.gov/4152/Key-Financial-Indicators
directly into the address bar. He stated the plan is to also
provide a link to the dashboard on the Blueprint webpage.
Mr. Carroll suggested visiting chesterfield.gov and entering
"key" into the search bar.
Dr. Casey concurred and stated search engines are sometimes
faster. He further stated staff will be working with business
associations and community partners to disseminate the link to
the dashboard.
Mr. Hill displayed the dashboard main page and reviewed the
various navigation buttons broken into different main topics
including Travel Statistics, Consumer Spending, and Employment
and Labor Force, among others. He demonstrated how selecting
a main topic reveals subtopics to provide data in even greater
detail. He reviewed the References page which lists the various
21-213
4/28/2021
sources of data utilized by the dashboard. He stated the
dashboard provides a great deal of information in one
convenient location.

for connection to the wastewater system and amendment of zoning
district map in an Agricultural (A) District on 10.1 acres
fronting the north line of Lakeview Road approximately 385 feet
west of the intersection of Branders Bridge Road. Density will
be controlled by zoning conditions or ordinance standards. The
Comprehensive Plan suggests the property is appropriate for
Suburban Residential II use (2.0 to 4.0 dwellings/acre). Tax
ID 793-622-2168.
Mr. Ryan Ramsey presented a summary of Case 21SN0556 and stated
the request is for an exception to Section 16-60 of the
Utilities Ordinance. He further stated a private septic system
is proposed for the development, which is a church sanctuary.
He stated the applicant has agreed to connect to the public
wastewater system once lines have moved closer to the property.
He further stated Utilities staff recommended denial because
the request is inconsistent with the Utilities Ordinance. He
stated as a part of the exception request, the applicant's
request would be conditioned to limit the use of the property
to the church and any other uses accessory to the church. He
further stated because of the limiting nature of this by -right
use in an Agricultural district, the proposal would not
negatively impact further development of the area, and,
therefore, Planning staff recommended approval of the request.
He stated the Planning Commission unanimously recommended
approval, noting the conditions would limit the uses and scope
of the development of the property relative to the public
wastewater exception request. He further stated Planning staff
recommended approval; however, Utilities staff recommended
denial.
In response to Mr. Carroll's question, Mr. Ramsey stated there
is a condition requiring the applicant to connect to public
wastewater once it moves closer to the property.
Mr. Kerry Hutcherson, representing the applicant, agreed with
the conditions.
Mr. Holland called for public comment.
Mr. Carlton Varnell, Senior Pastor of The Sanctuary, provided
details of the church's ministry and service to the community.
He stated the congregation has grown rapidly and is in
desperate need of more space for worship and education. He
further stated approval of the request would allow the church
to move just a short distance down the road from Colonial

on the request.
There being no one else to speak to the issue, the public

church. Any development of the Property for additional
lots or uses, other than the aforementioned, shall be
required to conform to the Code at that time for the
provision of public wastewater. (U)
2. Dedication of Public Wastewater Easements. Any site plan
or building permit for the Property shall provide and
dedicate public wastewater easements in locations
acceptable to the Utilities Department to accommodate the
future extension of the public wastewater system. Such
easements shall be dedicated prior to the site plan or
building permit approval. (U)
3. Future Connection to Wastewater. In the event the public
wastewater system is extended to a point within 200 feet
of the Property, the public wastewater system shall be
extended to the property a point acceptable to the
Utilities Department and all uses requiring domestic
wastewater shall be connected to the public wastewater
system. (U)

Office (0-2) Districts on 32.5 acres fronting 475 feet on the
south line of Lucks Lane, east of Route 288. Density will be
controlled by zoning conditions or ordinance standards. The
Comprehensive Plan suggests the property is appropriate for
Medium -High Density Residential use (minimum 4.0 to 8.0
dwellings/acre). Tax ID 733-694-3275.

Mr. Winslow expressed appreciation for the presentation and
for the work done by the Planning Commission on this case. He
stated this is the Centerpointe development which was last
before the Board in 1988 and noted that the multi -family zoning
has been in place for a while. He further stated one of the
benefits of the case is the extension of East Evergreen
Parkway, next to Evergreen Elementary School, all the way down
to Lucks Lane. He stated he had a few changes from the Planning
Commission and wanted to impose a couple of conditions. He
noted StratIS does project with this zoning change there will
be fewer students generated for the school system when compared
to the current zoning. He stated this is important to note
given Tomahawk Creek and Falling Creek middle schools need
capacity. He then made the following motion:
For the reasons that I have previously stated, I move
to approve Case 21SN0561 as follows. First, as part
of this motion, I am going to reject Proffered
Conditions 1 and 2. Second, I impose the following
conditions:

88SN0059, that is the
old zoning
case, shall be
amended as follows:
Jl
a. In no case
shall the maximum
number of
residential
units exceed 1,775.
That is a
change from
1,800 that is currently
before
US.
b. No greater than 5 percent of the multifamily
units in Parcel 4A will be constructed as
three-bedroom units.
2. The developer shall perform a hydraulic
analysis of the County's wastewater system to
verify adequate capacity exists prior to any
future construction plan approval. Any capacity
related improvements required to support the
demands of this development shall be reflected
on the construction plans and shall be the
responsibility of the developer.
3. The required landscaping along Lucks Lane shall
be increased to 2.0 times perimeter Landscape
C, as detailed in the zoning Ordinance.
Third, I note that the other conditions of Case
88SN0059 will still apply. Finally, I understand
that the applicant has agreed to the rejection of
the Proffered Conditions 1 and 2 as it is presented
tonight and accepts my imposition of those imposed
conditions.

17.E. TO CONSIDER DRAFT ROCKWOOD SPECIAL FOCUS AREA (PLAN)
Mr. Drew Noxon stated this date and time has been advertised
for a public hearing for the Board to consider the adoption of
the Rockwood Special Focus Area Plan. He further stated a
Special Focus Area (SFA) is a long-range plan providing
detailed development guidance to areas undergoing or having a
high potential for change, and the Rockwood SFA is the county's
first such plan. He stated the SFA guides future growth, land
development and redevelopment decisions, programs, ordinances,
and policies; it provides strategies for the redevelopment of
key properties through detailed design guidelines and
placemaking; it is a component of the countywide Comprehensive
Plan; and it replaces portions of the Northern Courthouse Road
Community Plan and Route 360 Corridor Plan. He further stated
the SFA is bounded by Falling Creek to the north; Gregory's
Pond and the Amberleigh and Falling Creek Farms subdivisions
to the east; Horner's Run to the south; and Price Club
Boulevard and Genito Woods subdivision to the west. He stated
it also includes a core area consisting of the four quadrants
surrounding the intersection of Hull Street and Courthouse
Road, which is designated as the main focal point for
redevelopment efforts within Rockwood. He provided details of
the opportunities and challenges of the Rockwood area. He
stated the opportunities include a locational advantage,
noting that the intersection of Hull Street and Courthouse Road
is one of the most traversed intersections in the county;
Rockwood Park as a regional amenity; established communities
nearby; available land for development;, an attractive market;
and waterways providing potential recreational and educational
opportunities. He further stated the challenges include
numerous landowners; predominately commercial uses; few
employment uses; low residential density; few entertainment
uses and open spaces; few outdoor dining opportunities;
automobile oriented; disconnected from the park; lacking a
sense of "place"; retail vacancies; and encumbered lands. He
stated the Rockwood SFA Plan provides a healthy balance of
21-250
4/28/2021
J
residential, commercial, retail, office, and entertainment
uses that are mutually beneficial; it promotes additional
housing options currently unavailable in the area; it
encourages a walkable development pattern with higher
densities surrounding the intersection of Hull Street and
Courthouse Road; it offers protections for existing
residential communities; and it includes a conceptual phased
build -out model of the four quadrants over a fifty-year period.
He further stated the plan is only a guide for future land -use
6 decisions, not law or ordinance, and property owners would
(` still have to apply for zoning changes to develop or redevelop
much of the land with the Rockwood area. He provided the Board
with conceptual renderings of what some of the properties along
Hull Street and Courthouse Road could look like if
redevelopment happens in accordance with the land use plan
recommendations. With regard to infrastructure, he stated the
plan recommends the creation of an interconnected grid system
of streets which utilize many of the existing traffic signals
along Hull Street and Courthouse Road and provide for parallel
networks to better distribute traffic and decrease pressure
around the main intersection of Hull Street and Courthouse
Road. He further stated the plan includes a new Rockwood Park
access at the existing traffic signal on Hull Street at
Oxbridge Road, which would improve access in and out of the
park. He provided details of bikeways, trails, and pedestrian
corridors proposed by the plan. He reviewed the plan's mixed-
use environments in the four quadrants which would consist of
high-quality streetscaping, high-quality site and building
design standards, and central, public open spaces. He stated
the plan also recommends branding and signage which would
promote Rockwood as a unique place in the county. He summarized
the recommendations of the plan, which are a mix of uses at
varying densities; land uses which do not currently exist
today; and expanded housing options. He stated the plan also
provides an environment for walking and biking, and alternative
routes to avoid concentrating traffic on Hull Street and
Courthouse Road. He further stated the plan supports the
establishment of new open spaces such as village greens and
trails along the area's streams and builds upon Rockwood Park
as the main attraction within the plan area. He stated the plan
also looks to better connect Rockwood Park to existing
communities and those developed in the future. He further
stated the plan promotes placemaking through high-quality
design guidelines and promoting Rockwood as a great place to
live, work, shop, and play. He then discussed implementation
of the plan, which includes county -initiated rezoning requests
for the four -quadrants area; creation of new zoning ordinance
standards which require development in accordance with the
plan; establishment of incentives such as expansion of current
tax abatements and performance grants similar those used on
Jefferson Davis Highway, deletion of cash proffers for high-
quality residential development, demolition assistance to help
lower the cost of redevelopment, and development of new
ordinance provisions which will help to incentivize
redevelopment; and an aggregation strategy which would include
an increased role by multiple county departments to work with
developers early on at the exploratory stages of a potential
project and to also explore additional incentives for projects
which could aggregate significant acreage. He provided details
of funding needs for a north/south collector road and new
21-251
4/28/2021
Rockwood Park access; crosswalks and pedestrian signals at six
area intersections along Courthouse Road and Hull Street;
demolition assistance for shopping centers that come through
with redevelopment plans; gateway signage at the entrances to
Rockwood; Horner's Run Trail segment in the southeast quadrant;
and a pedestrian bridge across Falling Creek/Gregory's Pond to
Rockwood Park. He discussed the extensive community outreach
and public hearings leading up to Board consideration of the
plan.
Mr. Winslow stated this plan has been a long time coming and
he thanked staff for their work. He further stated good public
input was received and credited online community meetings for
broadening the scope of participation.
Mr. Holland called for public comment
There being no one to speak to the issue, the public hearing
was closed.
Mr. Holland stated he is very supportive, and he looks forward
to investment in the area. He then made a motion, seconded by
Mr. Winslow, to approve the Rockwood Special Focus Area Plan.

plan and is a case of first impression, and he believes staff
is working on a few more.
Ms. Haley
stated
this
is a good example of focusing on areas
that need
a plan

to consider a Third Lease Amendment with 5G Air, LLC for the
construction of aircraft hangars at the Chesterfield County
Airport. He reviewed the pertinent provisions of the original
lease as well as the first and second amendments to the original
lease. He stated the hangars are nearly complete, but the
lessee was unable to complete the project by the April 1, 2021,
deadline due to delays in establishing electrical service to
the buildings which negatively impacted the lessee's ability
to complete other construction tasks that required power. He
21-252

further stated staff recommends a third lease amendment
authorizing an additional 90 days, thus requiring completion
by July 1, 2021. He stated staff also recommends authorizing
the county administrator to extend the deadline until
construction is complete should any additional unforeseen
circumstances continue to impact the project. He further stated
the lessee, Mr. Ray Gibson, was present to answer any
questions.
Mr. Holland called for public comment.
There being no one to speak to the issue, the public hearing

And, further, the Board authorized the County Administrator to
extend the deadline until construction is complete should
unforeseen circumstances, weather, or supply challenges
continue to impact the project.
