NOW, THEREFORE BE IT RESOLVED, the Board of Supervisors does hereby certify that to the best of each member's knowledge, i) only public business matters lawfully exempted from open meeting requirements under the Freedom of Information Act were discussed in the Closed Session to which this certification applies, and ii) only such public business matters as were identified in the Motion by which the Closed Session was convened were heard, discussed, or considered by the Board. No member dissents from this certification. 02- 629 09/18/02 The Board being polled, the vote was as follows: Mr. McHale: Aye. Mrs. Humphrey: Aye. Mr. Barber: Aye. Mr. Warren: Aye. Mr. Miller: Aye. Mr. Miller stated that, after reviewing with counsel options relative to the World Church of the Creator's use of the county's public facilities, it was the Board's consensus that there is no legal basis to stop the meeting scheduled for September 21, 2002. He further stated that the entire Board condemns the group, but he is satisfied after hearing from counsel that the Board would be diminishing itself if it were to take an action that would expose the county to constitutional challenges, punitive damages, and etcetera. He invited anyone wishing to speak to the issue to come forward at this time. Mr. Ray Christian stated that he feels groups, such as World Church of the Creator that might have a detrimental effect on the community should be required to post a bond certifying that the public assembly will not cause a disturbance. Mr. David Childress, a county resident and Richmond City Police Officer, expressed concerns relative to the violent history of World Church of the Creator. He strongly recommended a large police presence at the September 21't meeting, and suggested that the Board find a way to prevent this type of meeting in public facilities in the future. Bishop Gerald Glenn stated that he is disheartened by the Board's decision and feels that, as a minority, he is suffering as a result of the Board's action. He expressed concerns that the World Church of the Creator will be meeting in a public facility supported by tax dollars, and that the meeting will be restricted to ~whites only." He stated that he intends to attend the meeting on Saturday, and inquired as to what recourse he would have if he was not allowed to attend. Ms. Barbara Turner stated that she, too, is disheartened by the Board's decision. She expressed concerns that World Church of the Creator is listed as an active hate group on the Internet, and provided the Board with a copy of her Internet research relative to the organization. Reverend John King stated that the Board's actions and those of other people are inciting hatred towards the World Church of the Creator. He further stated that the organization is not here to create any violence, and expressed appreciation to the Board for acting wisely and respecting his rights to speak freely. He stated that if violence occurs, it will be from out-of-state protestors, communists, anarchists and others, rather than from the members of his church. Mr. Wade Runge stated that he is enraged that an organization with a violent track record would be allowed to meet in a public facility. He further stated that he feels the Board should have taken a stand against hatred in the county. Dr. Freddie Nicholas, former member of the Board, stated that the county has an excellent legal staff and he had hoped the Board would be strong enough to run the risk of assuming a lawsuit. He strongly encouraged the Board to expeditiously consider a policy change relative to groups of this nature that request the use of public facilities. Mr. L. J. McCoy congratulated the Board on its decision to uphold the Constitution, stated that the issue seems to have 02- 630 09/18/02 drawn many people together, and indicated that a prayer vigil has been organized for September 21't. Mr. Miller then closed the public comment session. He requested that Mr. Micas explain the basis for his advice that led to the Board's decision. Mr. Micas stated that the use of the public library by World Church of the Creator is governed by the First Amendment of the Constitution that provides an extraordinarily broad protection for political speech. He further stated that the Fourth Circuit Court of Appeals ordered Arlington County in Northern Virginia to allow the Nazi Party to use public schools. He stated that, when a facility is open to the public, the government must allow all forms of political speech, even when that political speech is offensive, and the government cannot pick and choose the type of speech, quality of speech, or type of human beings. He noted that many types of political speech are legally mandated and the county cannot choose to suppress the typ~e of speech it might find offensive through the use of public facilities. He stated that there are many cases throughout the country where the issue of use of public facilities has been challenged. When asked, Mr. Micas stated that he has found approximately 20 localities across the country in which the World Church of the Creator has used public facilities to make speeches, and no localities where the group has been precluded. He further stated that he is not aware of any circumstances that would distinguish this situation from any other situation involving the organization. He stated that he can find no recent cases anywhere in the country that would allow the county to seek a restraining order to keep the meeting from taking place, and speculated upon the possible damages the county could suffer as a result of fighting the issue and losing in court. When asked, Mr. Micas stated there was a First Amendment issue in Culpeper many years ago in which a judqment was granted against individual elected, officials as well as the jurisdiction. Mr. Warren stated that he abhors the situation, and the Board will be adopting two resolutions that will speak to the seriousness of the issue. Mr. Barber stated that the issue is extremely frustrating, and he feels the entire county is suffering because of the issue, not just minorities. He noted that the county's own web site filters the organization because it is a hate ~roup. He stated that Mr. King thanked the Board for respecting his rights and indicated that there is nothing about this group or its members that he respects. Mr. McHale stated that he is appalled and frustrated that there is no way to stop this meeting. He further stated that he is not afraid of a lawsuit and if there was any chance of the county winning, he would agree to putting a stop to the meeting. He expressed concerns 'that county funds will be used for the police power to provide security at the meeting. He stated that the Board could not find a way to stop the organization from meeting without funding the organization in some way. He further stated that Board members took an oath to support and defend the Constitution, and indicated that he feels it would put the public at ~reat peril to ignore that oath and force the issue into court. He stated that an alternative meeting has been organized to discuss the issue and address the matters seriously and prayerfully, and not provide any more notoriety for the World Church of the Creator. Mr. Warren stated that the Board will be adopting a resolution condemning the World Church of the Creator, which 02- 631 09/18/02 provides the message that racism of any sort will not be tolerated in Chesterfield County. Mrs. Humphrey stated that she would be willing to take on a lawsuit if the county had any chance of winning it. She further stated that prohibiting public meetings in public facilities would prohibit legitimate groups from holding their meetings. She stated that she will support resolutions condemning the World Church of the Creator and adopting a new policy for meeting in County Library meeting rooms. Mr. Miller stated that he does not believe Our forefathers intended that this sort of speech would be protected and they would be appalled by this. He further stated that he is disgusted that individuals would have such hatred in their hearts, and indicated that the Board's action did not harm minorities, but rather upheld Constitutional rights. He stated that the World Church of the Creator has received far more attention than they deserve, and expressed concerns that this group and others like them would like to harm citizens. He further stated that, when sworn in both as an attorney and as a Board member, he agreed to uphold the laws of the Constitution and the laws of the Commonwealth, and indicated that he will not violate that oath for the likes of this organization. Mr. Warren made a motion, seconded by Mr. McHale, for the Board to suspend its rules at this time to allow consideration of Item 8.C.19., Adoption of Resolution Condemning the World Church of the Creator; and Item 8.C.21., Adoption of a New Policy for Meeting in County Library Meeting Rooms.

Mr. Miller requested that Mr. Micas provide the Board with information regarding the possibility of restricting the use of the facility to Chesterfield residents and businesses. Mr. Micas clarified that the new policy will apply to new applications only, and does not apply to existing applications. Mr. McHale requested that staff explore other ways to legally restrict use of the facility to the extent that we are Constitutionally able.

COLE FOR AN EXCEPTION TO THE USE OF PUBLIC WATER FOR A NEW RESIDENTIAL STRUCTURE LOCATED ON ECOFF AVENUE Mr. Garry Cole expressed concerns that staff has recommended denial of his request based strictly on the drought situation. He requested that the Board approve his request for an exception to the use of public water for his residence on Ecoff Avenue. Mr. Bryant stated that staff's recommendation for denial is based upon the Health Department's concerns relative to failing wells due to the drought. When asked, Mr. Cole stated that he wants to dig a deep well on his property. No one else came forward to speak to the issue. Mr. Bob Bowers, Environmental Health Supervisor, stated that staff recommended denial due to the number of well failures with the current drought situation. When asked, Mr. Bowers stated that drilling of this well would not affect any other properties in the area because they are on the county's water system. Mr. Cole indicated he realizes if his well goes dry, he will be responsible for the connection fee to the county's water system. On motion of Mr. McHale, seconded by Mrs. Humphrey, the Board approved the request from Garry L. Cole for an exception to the use of public water for a new residential structure located at 5706 Ecoff Avenue. (It is noted a copy of the plat is filed with the papers of this Board.)

AM~3~ENT TO A PENDIN~ ZONING APPLICATION (CASE 01SN0121~ BOTTOMS PROPERTY) ORIGINALLY INITIATED BY THE BOARD OF SUPERVISORS Mr. Miller inquired about the nature and purpose of the amendment. Mr. Micas stated that the Board of Supervisors originally initiated the zoning application because there was a community need being served for the school and others by the rezoning. He further stated that the applicant was asked by the county to make some proffers., which only the landowner can do, and the applicant agreed to do that. He stated that the effect of the proffers resulted in land use rollback taxes, which was not the county's intent. He further stated that the amendment will withdraw the residential portion of the application so that the rollback taxes would not apply, which was the understanding when the case was first initiated. Mr. Miller expressed concerns that the rollback taxes would be imposed if the county were not the applicant. He stated that he is not comfortable supporting the request. On motion of Mr. Warren, seconded by Mrs. Humphrey, the Board amended a pending zoning application (Case 01SN0121), originally initiated by the Board of Supervisors, to delete the residential portion of the request and include that Agricultural (A) tract, shown on the map filed with the papers of this Board, within tlhe Conditional Use Planned Development.

DANIEL P. COLLINS TO ADDRESS THE BOARD REGARDING IMPACT OF THE CURRENT WATER RESTRICTIONS ON T~E LAWN CARE BUSINESS Mr. Daniel Collins expressed concerns that car washes, swimming pool companies and golf courses are freely allowed to use water, yet lawn care businesses are being restricted during aeration and seeding season. He stated that turf grass reduces pollution and also reduces heating and cooling costs. He expressed concerns that he is in danger of losing his business. He requested that the Board allow minimal watering for refurbishing of lawns. On motion of Mr. Warren, seconded by Mr. McHale, the Board suspended its rules at this time to add Item 16.A., Adoption on an Emergency Basis of an Amendment to the Ordinance Imposing Mandatory Restrictions on the Use of Public Water, Surface Water and Ground Water in Accordance with the Governor's Executive Order, to the.Agenda. Ayes: Miller, Warren, Barber, Humphrey and McHale. Nays: None. 16.A. ADOPTION ON AN EMERGENCY BASIS OF AN AHENDMENT TO THE ORDIANCE IMPOSING MANDATORY RESTRICTIONS ON THE USE OF PUBLIC WATER, SURFACE WATER AND GROUNDWATER IN ACCORDANCE WITH THE C, OVERNOR'S EXECUTIVE ORDER Mr. Warren recognized seven persons in the audience who are in the lawn care business that were present at the meeting. He stated that Governor Warner has amended his Executive Order to keep lawn care services from being detrimentally impacted. He further stated that the proposed amendment will allow people who aerate and seed to water their lawns on an odd-even schedule. Mr. Bryant stated that water consumption averaged 50 million gallons per day prior to adoption by the Board of the odd- even restrictions; 35 million gallons per day during the odd- even restrictions; and 29 million gallons per day since the more restrictive ordinance was adopted. He further stated that it is difficult to determine the impact of the proposed amendment. Discussion ensued relative to Henrico, Hanover and Richmond allowing their residents unlimited lawn watering for 30 days after aerating and reseeding. Mr. Ramsey stated that the proposed ordinance would allow watering on an odd-even schedule for 30 days or until October 31, 2002. Mr. Warren stated that lawn care professionals have indicated that newly seeded lawns require more than three days a week of watering; therefore, other localities have adopted a maximum of 30 days of watering. Mr. Miller stated that he does not want to penalize lawn care businesses, but expressed concerns as to what will happen in the spring if the drought continues. 02- 665 09/18/02 Discussion ensued relative to enforcement of the proposed ordinance. Mr. Bryant stated that odd-even watering of refurbished lawns could be much more easily enforced than allowing unlimited watering for 30 days. Mr. Barber expressed concerns relative to enforcement and stated that he fears water consumption will increase if refurbished lawns are allowed to be watered for 30 days without any limitations. Mr. Warren made a motion for the Board to adopt the proposed ordinance with elimination of all references to the odd-even watering schedule, thereby allowing unlimited watering of refurbished lawns for 30 days or until October 31, 2002, whichever comes earlier. Mr. Barber expressed concerns that Mr. Warren's amendment to the proposed ordinance allows much more watering and will be more difficult to enforce. He stated that he cannot support the motion. Mr. McHale seconded Mr. Warren's motion. He stated that he feels strongly that water restrictions are needed and is concerned about allowing watering for 30 days, but realizes that most people who refurbish their lawns would have already done so by now. He stated that, because of lost watering time that has already occurred, he feels it would be appropriate to allow watering of refurbished lawns for 30 days and there will be no greater impact than if the odd-even watering procedure had been in place since the Board's adoption of the Governor's original restrictions. Mrs. Humphrey stated that the ordinance will provide relief for five weeks only by allowing lawn care professionals to move forward with their fall contracts, and indicated that she will support the motion. Mr. Miller stated that he cannot support Mr. Warren's motion that would allow unlimited watering of refurbished lawns and would be more difficult to enforce. Mr. Collins stated that, until new seed germinates, it must be sprinkled lightly each morning in order to stay moist. He further stated that lawn care professionals will educate their customers to water lightly and, after the seed germinates, to use much less water. Mr. Barber stated that he could support the ordinance if it limited the watering of lawns to those that have been aerated and seeded by professional lawn care businesses because it would provide for education of the residents as well as an enforcement mechanism for the ordinance. Mr. Micas stated that ordinances should be of general applicability, and he would not recommend an ordinance that would allow one seqment of the community to do something that others could not. Mr. Ramsey noted that 70 percent of the county's water supply comes from reservoirs and water that is being saved is water 02- 666 09/18/02 in the reservoir available for Chesterfield County next spring, if needed. He further stated that approximately 20 days of water has been saved through the restrictions. He stated that this was the basis for the difference in the county's watering restrictions and those of neighboring jurisdictions. Mr. Miller called for a vote on the motion of Mr. Warren, seconded by Mr. McHale, for the Board to adopt the following ordinance, as amended, on an emergency basis: AN ORDINANCE AMENDING THE O}~INANCE SUSPENDING THE COUNTY MANDATORY RESTRICT]IONS ON USE OF PUBLIC WATER AND IMPOSING MANDATO~ RESTRICTIONS ON THE USE OF PUBLIC WATER, SURFACE WATERS AND GROUND WATER IN ACCORDANCE WITH THE GOVERNOR'S EXECUTIVE ORDER BE IT ORDAINED by the Board of Supervisors of Chesterfield County: 1.

TO CONSIDER AW~qD~a~-.NTS TO COUNTY POLICY REGARDING CRIMINAL BACKGROUND Cw~CKS FOR COACHES OF CO-SPOnSORED GROUPS Mr. Mike Chernau, Senior Assistant County Attorney, stated that the Board deferred the public hearing to consider amendments to the county policy regarding criminal background checks for coaches of co-sponsored groups until this date and time to allow the Parks and Recreation Advisory Commission 02- 673 09/18/02 (PRAC) an opportunity to make a recommendation on the amendments. He further stated that the Board also directed PRAC to provide a recommendation on national background checks. He stated that PRAC met on September 5, 2002, and provided the following recommendations: 1) supports amending the county policy to allow an individual who has been convicted of a barrier crime to be considered by the review committee only on a "case by case" basis if the governor has restored the individual's right to vote; 2) supports limiting barrier crimes involving youth to those involving sexual or physical misconduct so long as all other crimes involving youth continue to be reviewed on a case by case basis; and 3) reserves judg~nent on expanding to national checks until input can be received from co-sponsored groups at a public hearing. Mr. Warren called for the public hearing. No one came forward to speak to the issue. Mr. Miller returned to the meeting. Mr. Ramsey stated that PRAC has requested additional time to study the issue of background checks of the federal registry, and staff is recommending that the Board direct PRAC to report back by November 1, 2002. Mr. Miller expressed concerns relative to relaxing the standards of the county's background check policy prior to a full year's history. He stated that the policy was designed to protect children, and if the amendment relative to restoration of rights could state that crimes for -which a person had received restoration of rights did not involve a crime of violence or a crime against a child, he could support it. He expressed concerns relative to various barrier crimes involving juveniles that do not involve physical or sexual misconduct, and stated that he cannot support the amendment to limit barrier crimes involving juveniles to only those crimes involving sexual or physical misconduct and review all other convictions on a ~case by case" basis. Mrs. Humphrey stated that she feels there are situations that need to be reviewed on an individual basis when their circumstances are exceptional. She further stated that the amendments are not intended to minimize the severity of the ordinance. She stated that the Parks and Recreation Advisory Commission recommended both amendments. Mr. McHale made a motion, seconded by Mr. Warren, for the Board to adopt amendment (i) allowing people to coach who have been convicted of a barrier crime if the Governor restores his or her political disabilities, with additional language providing that such crime did not involve a crime of violence or any crime against a juvenile. Discussion ensued relative to whether the coaching applicant who has had his rights restored by the Governor would be covered by this amendment. Mr. Barber expressed concerns relative to accommodating certain applicants, and questioned whether the Board should deal with the issue in closed session. 02- 674 09/18/02 Mr. Micas stated that decisions relative to coaching are an administrative matter. Mr. Miller stated that the intent of the motion is to protect children while making an accommodation that was not so restrictive as the original language. Mrs. Humphrey stated that she feels if the Governor has restored someone's rights, the Board should accept that. Mr. Barber expressed concerns relative to who should hear the appeals of persons who are denied the opportunity to coach. Mr. Miller stated that he feels the proposal, as amended, will take pressure off of the review committee. Mr. Miller called for a vote on the motion of Mr. McHale, seconded by Mr. Warren, for the Board to approve proposal (i) allowing people to coach who have been convicted of a barrier crime if the Governor restores his or her political disabilities, as amended, with additional language providing that such crime did not involve a crime of violence or any crime against a juvenile. Ayes: Miller, Warren, Barber, Humphrey and McHale. Nays: None. Mr. McHale stated that he is not comfortable with reviewing barrier crimes on a ~case by case" basis and cannot support proposal (ii). Mr. Barber stated that he can support proposal (ii) because he feels there should be a way to review barrier crimes on a ~case by case" basis. Mr. Miller stated that he feels there are activities that may not be sexual or a physical misconduct in nature that he feels persons who have been convicted should be prohibited from coaching and not be reviewed on a ~case by case" basis. He further stated that he will not support proposal (ii). Mrs. Humphrey stated that she supports proposal (ii) to allow review of certain barrier crimes on a "case by case" basis. Mr. Warren stated that he supports ]proposal (ii). Mr. Miller stated that he feels this is even more serious than proposal (i), and expressed concerns relative to various crimes that would be included in the review process if this proposal is adopted. Mr. Barber stated that he feels the review process is the safeguard, and the appeals committee would never allow someone with a serious crime to be approved on a ~case by case" basis. Mr. Miller expressed concerns relative to the shocking results that have been discovered thus far with the background checks, stating that he feels the policy should perhaps be even more restrictive. Mr. Barber made a motion, seconded by Mrs. Humphrey, for the Board to approve proposal (ii) limiting barrier crimes 09`- 675 091~8/02 involving juveniles to only those crimes involving sexual or physical misconduct and review all other convictions on a ~case by case" basis. And, further, the Board directed that the Parks and Recreation Commission report back to the Board by November 1, 2002 with its recommendation on national background checks. Ayes: Warren, Barber and Humphrey. Nays: Miller and McHale. Mrs. Humphrey excused herself from the meeting. 17.B.

He stated that farm animals already in Residential Districts would remain grandfathered. When asked, Mr. Poole stated that the definition of stock farm includes the term rabbit.

Residential use of up to 2.90 units per acre is permitted in a Residential (R- 15) District. The Comprehensive Plan suggests the property is appropriate for residential use of 1.00 to 2.5 units per acre. This request lies on 34.5 acres fronting approximately 250 feet on the south line of Centralia Road across from Agincourt Lane. Tax ID 780-661-5'780 (Sheet 26). Mr. Jacobson presented a summary of Case 02SN0293 and stated that staff recommends approval subject to the applicant addressing concerns relative to road connections. He further stated that the Transportation Department recommends that the applicant proffer a left turn lane at Centralia Road at the entrance to the proposed development if the developer is required to connect to North Oaks Subdivision. He noted that the request conforms to the Central Area Plan. He stated that the Planning Commission recommended approval and acceptance of proffered conditions 1 through 5 and 7 through 12, and that proffered condition 6 not be accepted, indicating that the Planning Commission supports the road connection between North Oaks and the subject property and does not support requiring this development to install a left turn lane entrance to the property since this development's traffic would not be the traffic which would necessitate the construction of a turn lane. Mr. Andy Scherzer, representing the applicant, stated that the Planning Commission did not support requiring this developer to construct a left turn lane if connection to Oakside Drive is required. He further stated that this development would not generate a need for a left turn lane and will not exceed the Fire Department's 50 lot standards requiring a second access. He stated that the developer committed to the North Oaks neighborhood that the connection would not be made. He requested that the Board approve the proposed development without requiring the stub road connection. 02- 687 09/18/02 Mr. Miller called for the public hearing. Ms. Elizabeth Bois, expressed concerns relative to safety of the North Oaks residents and stated that North Oaks residents do not want the connection. She requested that the Board approve the proposed development without the connection. Mr. John Helsted stated that he feels the connection will reduce the safety of the North Oaks neighborhood. He expressed concerns relative to increased traffic on Centralia Road and the dangerous turn out of North Oaks onto Centralia Road. Ms. Joan Lundy, a resident of North Oaks Subdivision, stated that she supports the proposed development. She expressed concerns relative to the possibility of an accident blocking the entrance to North Oaks, stated that connecting the proposed development to North Oaks would provide an additional access for North Oaks residents, and indicated that she supports the connection. Mr. Phil Goodman, a North Oaks resident, stated that he supports connecting the proposed development to North Oaks to provide an additional access for the safety of the residents. Mr. Jeff Moates, a North Oaks resident, stated that he does not support the connection because of increased traffic and safety of the North Oaks residents. He further stated that he feels delays at the Centralia Road railroad crossing present a larger safety issue for North Oaks residents. Mr. Mark Owen, a resident of North Oaks, stated that he does not support connecting the proposed development with North Oaks because of the safety of neighborhood children. Ms. Michelle Sibley, a resident of North Oaks, expressed concerns relative to safety of the residents and stated that she does not support connecting the proposed development with North Oaks. Ms. Elizabeth Bois stated that 15 residents indicated by signature that they do not support the connection. There being no one else to speak to the case, the public hearing was closed. Mr. McHale stated that a subdivision with fewer than 50 homes does not require a second access. Mr. McHale then made a motion, seconded by Mrs. Humphrey, for the Board to approve Case 02SN0293 and accept Proffered Conditions 1 through 12. Mr. Miller called for a vote on the motion of Mr. McHale, seconded by Mrs. Humphrey, for the Board to approve Case 02SN0293 and accept the following proffered conditions: 1.

Residential use of up to one (1) unit per acre is permitted in an Agricultural (A) District. The Comprehensive Plan suggests the property is appropriate for residential use of 1.01 to 2.5 units per acre. This request lies on 39.2 acres fronting approximately 160 feet on the west line of Winterfield Road, approximately 350 feet south of Elmstead Road. Tax ID 725-711-1557 (Sheet 5). Ms. Beverly Rogers presented a summary of Case 02SN0306 and stated that the Planning Commission and staff recor~ended denial because the proposed Agricultural zoning does not comply with the Midlothian Area Community Plan which suggests the property is appropriate for residential use. No one came forward to represent the applicant. Mr. Miller called for the public hearing. Mr. David Schneider, representing the Salisbury Homeowners Association, stated that the association does not support the request. There being no one else to speak to the case, the public hearing was closed. After brief discussion relative to the relocation of Winterfield Road, Mr. Barber made a motion, seconded by Mr. Warren, for the Board to defer Case 02SN0306 until November 26, 2002. Ayes: Miller, Warren, Barber, Humphrey and McHale. Nays: None. 02- 690 09/18/02 028N0307 In Bermuda Magisterial District, KING PROPERTIES, INC. requests amendment of Conditional Use Planned Development (Case 95SN0109) and amendment of zoning district map relative to impact on capital facilities. The density of such amendment will be controlled by zoning conditions or Ordinance standards. The Comprehensive Plan suggests the property is appropriate for medium/medium high-density residential use of 1.51 - 7.00 units per acre. This request lies in a Neighborhood Business (C-2) District on 32.0 acres fronting in two (2) places for a total of approximately 1,050 feet on the north line of Rivers Bend Boulevard, also fronting approximately 600 feet on the east line of Kingston Avenue and located in the northeast quadrant of the intersection of these roads. Tax IDs 817-656-Part of 5855 and 818-657-0208 (Sheet 27). Ms. Rogers presented a summary of Case 02SN0307 and stated that staff recommends denial because the amendment fails to fully address the impact of the development on school facilities. She further stated that the Planning Commission recommended approval and acceptance of the proffered conditions, indicating that based upon information provided by the applicant there was indication that the average number of students per dwelling unit is less than the county-wide average. When asked, Ms. Rogers stated, that staff's methodology relative to impact does not distinguish between multi-family and single-family residential when determining the average number of school children per dwelling unit; therefore, staff uses the countywide average to assess the impact of the development upon schools. Mr. John Easter, representing the applicant, stated that the existing complex has 250 units and has proposed 68 additional units, which are permitted under the existing zoning. He further stated that there are 21 students in 250 units or .08 students per unit, and the 1995 cash proffer was $2,513. He stated that the applicant has proffered $731 per unit, which is 29 percent of the share of the school proffer even though the impact is only 14 percent; therefore, a margin of error has been calculated even if the number of students were to double. He requested that the Board approve the proposed amendment. Mr. Miller called for the public hearing. No one came forward to speak to the case. Mr. McHale stated that he understands staff's position, but feels the developer has proffered apartment sizes and amenities that would keep the new addition to the development within the same pupil ratio as the original development. He further stated that because of the margin of error that has been calculated, he will support the proposed amendment. Mr. McHale then made a motion, seconded by Mr. Barber, for the Board to approve Case 02SN0307 and accepted the proffered conditions. 02- 691 09/18/02 Mr. Warren stated that he will support the amendment, but expressed concerns that there are 1,000 more students than originally projected in the schools this year, and he feels the Board needs to address this with cash proffers. Mr. Miller called for a vote on the motion of Mr. McHale, seconded by Mr. Barber, for the Board to approv.e Case 02SN0307 and accept the following proffered conditions: The property owners and applicant in this rezoning case, pursuant to Section 15.2-2298 of the Code of Virginia (1950 as amended) and the Zoning Ordinance of Chesterfield County, for themselves and their successors or assigns, proffer that the property under consideration will be developed according to the following proffers if, and only if, the rezoning request submitted herewith is granted with only those conditions agreed to by the owners and applicant. In the event this request is denied or approved with conditions not agreed to by the owners and applicant, the proffers shall immediately be null and void and of no further force or effect. Cash Proffer. The applicant, subdivider, or his assignee(s) shall pay $4,000.00 per dwelling unit, adjusted upward by any Board of Supervisor approved increase in the Marshall and Swift Building Cost Index between July 1, 2001, and July 1 of the fiscal year in which the payment is made, to the County of Chesterfield, prior to the time of issuance of a building permit for infrastructure improvements within the service district for the Property. At the time of payment, the $4,000.00, as adjusted, will be allocated pro-rata among the facility costs as calculated annually by the County Budget Department in accordance with the following proportions: $731 for schools, $2,403 for roads, $473 for parks, $162 for library facilities, and $231 for fire stations. If any of the cash proffers are not expended for the purposes designated by the Capital Improvement Program within fifteen (15) years from the date of payment, they shall be returned in full to the payor. Should Chesterfield County impose impact fees at any time during the life of the development that are applicable to the Property, the amount paid in cash proffers shall be in lieu of or credited toward, but not be in addition to, any impact fees in a manner as determined by the County. (B & M) (Staff Note: The first 250 dwelling units that have already been constructed on the request property are subject to Proffered Condition C. of Case 95SN0109 and are counted toward the overall total of 659 dwelling units allowed without paying a cash proffer in accordance with Case 95SN0109. Units constructed on this request property in excess of 250 units are subject to the proffered condition above and will not be included toward the 659 units allowed without paying a cash proffer.) For any dwelling units in excess of 250, a minimum of fifty-eight (58) percent of the units shall have a maximum of two (2) bedrooms and one (1) bath with a maximum square footage of 970 square feet.
