6. WORK SESSIONS
6.A. PROPOSED FY2015-2019 CAPITAL IMPROVEMENT PROGRAM
Mr. Carmody presented an overview of the proposed FY2015-2019
Capital Improvement Program. He provided a discussion
overview which included setting the backdrop; emphasis on
core services and key objectives; implementation strategies;
compliance with stormwater mandates; and next steps. He
stated conditions closely aligned with forecasted
expectations and challenges remain, but with a different menu
than five years ago. He further stated an advance preparation
began years ago and the foresight has yielded positive
results. He stressed the importance of continuing prudent
behavior and innovative approaches. He stated the FY2015
proposal advances formative initiatives relative to
investments in the community. He reviewed the emphasis on
core services, noting 80 percent of funding is dedicated to
public safety, education, and transportation with a continued
focus on key county objectives, such as quality of life and
revitalization. He noted the plan proposes solutions for:
revitalizing the county's oldest schools; preserving a safe
community; and improving county roads. He stated the solution
14-29
01/22/14
entails a blended approach that includes: new resources;
leveraged funds; alternative contract methods; and project
eliminations/revisions. In terms of school revitalization, he
stated the proposal preserves the seven-year plan, but not
without impacts. He further stated the revised seven-year
proposal still requires additional resources, though less
than the referendum amount; it includes elimination of a fire
station and a library, and a reduced slope to the public
safety training center; it also employs a performance
contracting component to limit new debt need; it does include
minor modification to project sequence; and the embedded
technology plan is restructured. In terms of maximizing
capital resources, it is important to continue a
transportation partnership with the Commonwealth. He reviewed
the proposed $10 increase ($20 to $30) in the vehicle
registration fee; resources that would be dedicated to the
Revenue Sharing program; and would generate $7 million in new
transportation resources ($3.5 million local).
Ms. Jaeckle noted the expansion from $1 million for local
projects to $10 million for project balances relative to
local revenue sharing for transportation resources. She
requested a list of revenue sharing projects from the
previous five years that have been funded.
In response to Mr. Elswick's
sharing projects, Mr. Carmody
plan laid out, beginning with
laid out for FY2015.
question relative to revenue
stated there is an $8 million
FY2016; and a $20 million plan
Mr. Carmody stated the $10 increase in the vehicle
registration fee would generate $3.5 million a year, with the
addition of general property tax, which would bring it to an
$8 million dollar program, $4 million local; $4 million
state. He further stated the ability to stay at a total of
$20 million cannot be accomplished solely on the vehicle
registration fee. He noted the decision before the Board is
how road issues are handled.
In response to Mr. Gecker's question, Mr. Carmody stated the
county transportation priority list is funded through state
dollars. He further stated the proposal addresses completing
smaller projects such as curve straightening and intersection
upgrades.
Mr. Gecker stated at some point the Board needs to weigh
whether spending money on straightening a road here or there
is more important than some of the other capital items that
are in the budget.
In response to Mr. Elswick's question relative to proffers,
Mr. Carmody stated last year's total was $9 million with 45
percent in road dollars.
In terms of fiscal stewardship, Mr. Carmody stated solid
financial management protects County creditworthiness with
outstanding debt reduced to $120 million between 2009 and
2013; the proposed CIP maintains compliance with key debt
ratios; continuing restoration of capital pay-as-you-go
funding; and the introduction of new resources dedicated for
schools and transportation. He reviewed stormwater mandates,
stating the large, multi-year project addresses regulatory
compliance while minimizing shocks. He further stated Total

Maximum Daily Loads (TMDL) work began in FY2014 with
consultant study; the cost estimates in proposed plan reflect
consultant involvement; and the cost the of three TMDL tiers
escalate dramatically: $10 million to $54 million to $104
million; the plan introduces a dedicated funding source to
begin addressing mandate; and banks resources to level out
financial impacts, prevents shocks. In closing, he stated a
public hearing on the CIP is scheduled for March 26th,
followed by adoption on April 9th
Ms. Jaeckle requested to have the Citizens Budget Advisory
Committee make a recommendation to the Board regarding
difference in 7-year and 9-year lifecycle costs for CIP
projects, including maintenance costs.
Mr. Holland requested to have the Citizens Budget Advisory
Committee review and provide a recommendation to the Board
regarding the County and School proposed CIP.
In response to Mr. Elswick's question, Mr. Carmody stated the
bond referendum projects are not proposed within the five-
year plan. He further stated there have been no previous
instances where voters were asked to approve projects and
some took priority over others.
Ms. Jaeckle stated there has been such a dramatic change in
the economy in between the time the bond referendum was
passed and today.
Mr. Warren stated there is an issue of being true to your
word relative to what citizens voted on. He further stated
the ZIP Code address transformation is bringing in revenue in
the low millions.
Mr. Gecker stated many of the 2004 projects cost more than
the original estimates, and the issue is not as simple as
whether the board is breaking its word. He further stated the
Board is restoring that balance in the future CIP by taking
away one or two of those things that were part of that
package but could not be afforded with the original price
tag.
Mr. Carmody stated the question remains on the operating side
dealing with the cost associated with those new facilities.
Mr. Holland requested to have details of 2004 bond projects
that have not been completed, to include projected completion
dates and cost differences, prior to the February 12t Board
of Supervisors meeting.
7. DEFERRED ITEMS
7.A. CONSIDERATION OF AMENDMENTS TO THE COUNTY CODE RELATIVE
TO KEEPING OF CHICKENS IN RESIDENTIAL DISTRICTS
Ms. Peterson stated on October 15, 2013, following a public
hearing, the Planning Commission, with a vote of 4 in favor
and 1 opposed, recommended approval of the ordinance
amendment with one modification, increasing the maximum
number of chickens kept from four to six. She further stated
as recommended, chicken keeping would become a use permitted
in Residential Districts, subject to specific restrictions.
She stated if these restrictions are met, no further zoning
action would be required. She further stated if one or more
14-31
01/22/14
of these restrictions are not met, conditional use approval
would be required.
In response to Mr. Elswick's question, Ms. Peterson stated
the Planning Commission recommended a maximum number of
chickens kept from four to six.
Ms. Jaeckle stated the Planning Commission and Planning staff
did a good job preparing the ordinance. She further stated
after reading the literature Mr. Gecker provided Board
members, she believes the Planning Commission was right to
increase the number of chickens kept to six.
Mr. Warren stated he believes chickens are deemed solely as
agricultural and should not be defined as pets. He noted he
does not support the recommendation.
Mr. Gecker stated the county has a system right now that
allows people to apply to have chickens and provides
neighbors with a voice in that decision. He further stated
changing the default rule to allow the ordinance change, as
opposed to letting it be more neighborhood oriented, seems to
be the wrong use of government.
In response to Mr. Gecker's question, Ms. Peterson stated the
condition similar to Case 13SN0507 regarding the cleanliness
of coops did not make it into the current ordinance due to a
matter of enforcement.
Ms. Jaeckle stated cleanliness of the coops needs to be
incorporated into the ordinance.
Mr. Gecker stated he does not agree with the ordinance
change; however, he would appreciate the incorporation of
language regarding the cleanliness of the coop similar to
Condition 5 of Case 13SN0507.

nMT.'.1dT1MF!NT
On motion of Ms. Jaeckle, seconded by Mr. Gecker, the Board
adopted the following amended Telecommunications Tower Siting
Policy:
Telecommunications Tower Siting Polic
(NOTE: In general, the following are the guidelines which
will be used to deliberate a proposed tower location relative
to Substantial Accord and/or Zoning approval. Meeting these
guidelines will not automatically address site specific
concerns. Additional conditions may be imposed and/or
recommended to address such concerns to further insure
14-39
01/22/14
compliance with the Comprehensive Plan or the purposes of the
Zoning Ordinance in the instance of a zoning action.)
Definitions
For purposes of this Policy and the Comprehensive Plan,
the term "flush mount" shall be defined as follows:
Antenna, Flush Mount -
1. Communication Towers. Communication tower
antenna(s) that protrude from the face of the
communication tower structure no more than two feet.
2. Electric Transmission Structures.
a. Communication antenna(s) co-located on electric
transmission structures incorporating a safety
platform that protrude from the face of the
electric transmission structures no more than
seven feet measured to the point of the triangle
formed by the antenna array.
b. Communication antennas collocated on electric
transmission structures without a safety platform
that protrude from the face of the electric
transmission structures no more than two feet.
Design
• In addition to design features identified in the
Comprehensive Plan and the Zoning Ordinance, use of
sectored arrays in areas developed for residential uses
shall be discouraged.
• Satellite dish and microwave dish antennas attached to
telecommunications towers shall not exceed six (6) feet
in diameter and shall be of a neutral color with no
logos.
Structure
Prior to use of a freestanding telecommunications tower,
the owner of the tower shall have obtained approval of
the structural integrity by a registered professional
engineer licensed in Virginia and a copy of the report
filed with the Planning Department.
Setbacks
• From property line - The minimum setback from the
boundary of the property on which the telecommunications
tower is located shall be the principal building setback
for the zoning district or the "fall zone" as certified
by a registered professional engineer licensed in
Virginia, whichever is greater. If the "fall zone"
establishes the setback, then the required certification
shall be filed with the Planning Department at time of
site plan review. No habitable structures or places where
people gather shall be located within any "fall zone."
J
J
J
14-40
01/22/14
• From existing off-site dwellings - The minimum setback
from existing off-site dwellings shall be as follows:
1. For towers one hundred (100) feet or less in
height, the minimum setback shall be 200 feet;
2. For towers greater than 100 feet in height, the
minimum setback shall be 300 feet.
• From public rights-of-way - The minimum setback from
public rights-of-way shall be as follows:
1. For
height,
2. For
minimum
towers one hundred (100) feet or less in
the minimum setback shall be 50 feet;
towers greater than 100 feet in height, the
setback shall be 75 feet.
Exceptions - The minimum setback requirements from off-
site dwellings and from public rights-of-way, as noted
above, may be decreased or waived, at the determination
of the Planning Commission, if a substantial stand of
vegetation is preserved within the setback from the
property line/fall zone. This preservation would not
prohibit the removal of vegetation to accommodate access
or the placement of ground-mounted equipment.
Signs
No advertising sign of any type, except signs which may
be required by state or federal guidelines, shall be
placed on a telecommunications tower or related facility.
Security
The base of the telecommunications tower and related
facilities shall be enclosed by a minimum six (6) foot
high fence designed to preclude trespassing. A detailed
plan depicting this requirement shall be submitted to
the Planning Department for approval in conjunction with
site plan review. If the telecommunications tower site
is located within a fenced area, or otherwise secured
area where access is controlled solely by the service
provider/operator, as determined by the Planning
Department, then no other fence shall be required.
Screening
The base of the telecommunications tower and accessory
ground mounted equipment or structures shall be screened
from adjacent properties by evergreen plantings. If
security fencing is required, then the evergreen
plantings shall be located between the security fence
and the property line. If security fencing is not
required, the evergreen plantings shall be located
within the lease area and no more than twenty (20) feet
from the items to be screened. The evergreens shall have
an initial height and spacing sufficient to provide
immediate screening. A detailed plan depicting this
requirement shall be submitted to the Planning
Department for approval in conjunction with final site
plan review.
Removal

be used for communications purposes for a period
exceeding twelve (12) consecutive months, the property
owner(s) and/or cell tower owner(s) and/or lessee(s)
14-41
01/22/14
shall dismantle and remove the tower and all associated
equipment from the property.
FCC "Shot Clock"
Every effort will be made to act on a tower site
application within a reasonable period of time. Under
state law, the Planning Commission should make a decision
on a tower site application within 90 days, excluding
time extensions to which the applicant consents, or else
the application could be deemed approved. The applicant's
consent will be sought and documented for delays or
deferrals, where appropriate.

14SN0534
(AMENDED) In Matoaca Magisterial District, HMG Investments
LLC and J. Mark Sowers request amendment of conditional use
planned development (Case 02SN0209) relative to
transportation improvements, transportation density,
transportation phasing, access, lighting, setbacks, and lot
sizes and amendment of zoning district map in a Residential
(R-12) District on 993.2 acres fronting on the east and west
line of Otterdale Road, 1010 feet south of Hampton Glen Drive
and fronting on the north and south line of Harpers Mill
Parkway, east and west of Otterdale Road. Density will be
controlled by zoning conditions or ordinance standards. The
Comprehensive Plan suggests the property is appropriate for
Suburban Residential I use (maximum of 2.0 dwellings per
acre) and Conservation/Recreation use. Tax IDs 708-663-6796,
709-663-2165, 710-664-1435, 711-661-6074, 712-663-7727, 712-
664-3659, 713-662-9633, 713-663-2879, 714-664-9003, 714-666-
5402, 715-662-0772, 715-665-5669, 716-662-3359 and 716-665-
9329.
Mr. Ryan Ramsey presented a summary of Case 14SN0534 and
stated the Planning Commission recommended approval. He
further stated the proposed amendments would increase maximum
transportation development density at build-out; modify
transportation improvements based upon proposed maximum
densities as identified in a new traffic analysis; delay
timing of some required road improvements; permit a temporary
emergency access to Beach Road, if approved during plan
review; increase freestanding lighting height for playfields;
and reduce minimum lot sizes and setbacks for cluster
residential development. He stated staff recommends denial
because while the proposed transportation amendments are
consistent with the evaluation of a new traffic analysis, and
the modifications to lighting, setbacks, and lot sizes are
acceptable, the applicant has not fully addressed the impact
of all units on capital facilities per the Board's Cash
Proffer Policy. He further stated the request exceeds the
Board's five-year time limitation to consider such requests
and deem the previously approved cash proffer adequate to
address the capital impacts of the modified development
proposal.
Mr. Brennen Keene, representing the applicant, stated the
original case required three left-hand turn lanes from Route
360 to Otterdale southbound and two right-hand turn lanes
from Otterdale going north to Route 360 eastbound, which was
based on the original transportation study. He further stated
one of the issues that has arisen is that VDOT is not all
together sold on the idea of three left-hand turn lanes that
it would deem to be acceptable. He stated significant road
J

improvements are proffered for the Route 360 and Otterdale
Road intersection and conditions of zoning will continue to
address impacts of the development on the county. He further
stated the request should not be subject to today's maximum
cash proffer. He urged the Board to approve the request.
Mr. Holland called for public comment.
There being no one to speak to the issue, the public hearing
was closed.
Mr. Elswick stated the case is not about larding proffers,
but about modifying triggers; triggering the events that will
change the way road improvements are done.
Mr. Elswick then made a motion, seconded by Mr. Gecker, for
the Board to approve Case 14SN0534 and accept the following
proffered conditions:
The Applicant in this case, pursuant to Section 15.2-2298 of
