Abstention: Mr. Apperson
Mr. Bookman asked that Mr. Ritz ask the developer in the area to fence the proper-
ties involved if the owners would like this done.
Mr. Ritz stated that the traffic situation will improve on this road because
there will eventually be five subdivisions and roadways are being planned which
will funnel traffic out the'other roads.
After some discussi'on of the matter, it was on motion of Mr. Myers, seconded by
Mr. Bookman, resolved that the following resolution be and it thereby was
approved:
Be it resolved that the Board authorizes t-he Chairman to enter into
a construction contract with Rahman Construction Corporation and Rouse Inter-
national, a joint venture; the low bidder; in the amount of $7,563,105.29, for
the construction of the Proctor's Creek Sewage Treatment Plant with other project
costs subject to EPA approval~ contingent on EPA approval of the contract. The.
funds for such project to be appropriated in the following manner:
$5,672,328.97 from the Federal Grant received by the County
for the construction of the Proctor's Creek
Sewage Treatment Plant, and
$1',890,776.32 from monies borrowed by the Treasurer in
anticipation of receiving Federal Funds for
sewer projects.
Ayes: Mr. O'Neill, Mrs. Girone, Mr. Apperson, Mr. Bookman and Mr. Myers.
It was on motion of Mr. Myers, seconded by Mr. Bookman, resolved that the Treasure
George W. Moore, Jr., be authorized to borrow an amount not to exceed $1,890,772.3
pursuant to Section 15.1-545.1, in advance of grants and reimbursements due the

anticipation of receiving such payment from the Federal or State governments.
The loan shall be repaid within thirty days of the time the grant or reimbursement
is received, but in any event, the loan shall be repaid within one year from the
date of its issue.
Aye: Mr. O'Neill, Mrs. Girone, Mr. Apperson, Mr. Bookman and Mr. Myers.
M~. Painter stated that there Will be some subsequent contracts involved with this
project at a later date.
Mrs. Pointer came before the Board in support of increasing the limits to that
of the State for elderly citizens which is $10,000 income, $35,000 net worth, one
house and one acre of land being.exempt and the first $4,000 of any relative
living in the same household being exempt from determination of annual income.
Mr. O'Neill inquired if the people who signed the petition presented realized
Chesterfield County is the only city or county in Virginia giving 100% exemption
to the elderly. She stated that they do but they would like Chesterfield to stay
on top and continue to be number one in offering the best possible services to its
citizens. Mr. Apperson suggests raising the acreage involved with the one house-
hold to two acres to eliminate a lot of work for tenths of acres. Mr. Bookman
stated that he felt with inflation and appraisals going up, perhaps the limits
should be raised and offers $8,500 income, $30,000 net worth, the first $4,000
being of any relative living in the same household and one house and two acres
of land as a suggestion. Mr. Myers stated that he agreed limits should be raised
because the program has not cost the County as much as was anticipated. Mr.
O'Neill stated that by going to two acres, then tenths could be involved over
that and asked where the limit would be.
Mrs. Girone stated that the original intention of the legislation was not to
benefit any age group but to help the elderly retain homes they had lived in for
years and were not able to pay taxes on, etc. now. She stated that this was not
a give away program. Mr. O'Neill stated that he was opposed to raising the rates
to $10,000 because some young families starting out do not make that much. He
added further that he was opposed to the two acres also and pointed again to the
fact that Chesterfield gives 100% exemption.
Mrs. Girone stated that she had talked with two Senior Citizen Groups and the
majority of the citizens were opposed to the limits being raised. She states
that Mr. Spooner Hull, Mr. and Mrs. Sam Wagstaff and Mr. and Mrs. Don Hodges
asked that she indicate their opposition to the proposed changes. After further
consideration of this matter, it was on motion of Mrs. Girone, resolved that the
County Attorney be authorized to advertise for a Public Hearing on September 8 an
Ordinance amending the limits on Tax Relief for the Elderly to be as follows:
$7,500 income, $35,000 net worth, the first $4,000 of any relative living in the
same household being exempt from determination of annual income and a house and
one acre of land.
Mr. Apperson inquired if Mrs. Girone would consider changing the acreage to two
acres. She does so and amends her motion to read that the County Attorney be
authorized to advertise for a Public Hearing on September8, and Ordinance amend-
ing the limits on Tax Relief for the Elderly to be as follows: $7,500 income,
$35,000. net worth, the first $4,000 of any relative living in the same household
being exempt from determination of annual income and a house and two acres of
land.
Mr. Bookman inquired if she would change the figures to those which are allowed
by the State. She stated that she could not because she felt this was the wish
of the people and she had too much input to go against what she felt was right
Upon consideration of this matter, it is on motion of Mr. Bookman, seconded by
Mr. Apperson, resolved that the figures be raised to the highest possible limits
allowed for the purpose of advertising because they cannot be raised later but
could be lowered which changes would mean $10,000 income~ $35,000 net worth, and
the first $4,000 of any relative living in the same household being exempt.from
determination of annual income.
A vote on the amendment was as follows:
Ayes: Mr. Apperson, Mr. Bookman and Mr. Myers.
Nays: Mr. O'.Neill and Mrs. Girone.
A vote was taken on the original motion which was amended to read that the County

follows: $10,000 income, $35,000 net worth, the first $4,000 of any relative
living in the same household being exempt from determination of annual income and
one house and two acres of land.
Ayes: Mr. Apperson and Mr. Bookman.
Nays: Mr. O'Neill, Mrs. Girone and Mr. Myers.
