o COMMITTEE ON THE FUTURE REPORT
Mr. John Gibney, Jr., Chairman of the Committee on the
Future, presented a summary of the Committee's current report
on the aging of the county's population, entitled ~Choices,
Options, and Benefits of Aging."
A video presentation relative to the aging trend in the
county was shown.
Mr. Gibney stated that, by the year 2030, the county's over
60 population will equal or exceed the under 20 population.
He further stated that repercussions of this change in
population will dictate change in areas such as government;
real estate development; transportation; employment
practices; education; and how churches are run. He stated
that senior citizens are an asset to the county, and the
report focuses on how senior citizens can help Chesterfield
County be a better place. He further stated that senior
citizens have a wealth of talent; time to serve; and a desire
to remain active and independent in the community. He stated
that the main recommendation in the report is the creation of
a Senior Coordinator position, with responsibilities of
ensuring that seniors have a one-stop source of information;
providing a senior accessible web site; and coordinating and
communicating opportunities for seniors to remain active in
the county. He further stated that the county also needs to
meet the needs of seniors when they reach a time of
diminished abilities. He stated that the county has a wealth
of people who are willing to provide free services to senior
citizens, and indicated that those services need to be
coordinated so that no senior need goes unmet. He suggested
that housing regulations be reviewed to streamline the
03 -7
01/08/03
process for providing senior housing. He stated that the
county's senior population is a well-educated, healthy, and
able group of people that is growing in number, and indicated
that they will help make Chesterfield a "first choice
con~nunity."
Mr. Miller expressed appreciation for the committee's
efforts, and stressed thel importance of the recommended
Senior Coordinator position, indicating that he feels it
should perhaps be expanded Upon and include a Senior Council
consisting of volunteers from various institutions.
Mr. Warren thanked
presentation.
