Further, the purpose and intent of the zoning ordinance to promote the health, safety, convenience and general welfare of the public includes the creation of convenient, attractive and harmonious communities, protection against overcrowding of land, and protection of the natural environment. As such, developments that promote unique, viable and long lasting places and enhance the community are encouraged.

BUDGET & MANAGEMENT Staff Contact: Natalie Spillman (804-318-8767) spillmann@chesterfield.gov County finance staff is responsible for managing the finances of the County and making recommendations to the County Administrator regarding the allocation of available resources for the provision of services and capital facilities to serve the citizens of the County. Finance staff will advise the County Administrator if changed economic circumstances require adjustments to the County’s budget or capital improvement program. COUNTY TRANSPORTATION Staff Contact: Jim Banks (804-748-1037) banksj@chesterfield.gov The applicant is requesting to amend zoning (Case 02SN0178) to eliminate cash profferson 26 recorded lots. Based on trip generation rates for a single-family dwelling, development of the 26 lots could generate approximately 304 average daily trips. Traffic generated by development of the property would be initially distributed along Genito Road. Genito Road is a major arterial with a recommended right of way width of 90 feet, as identified on the County’s Thoroughfare Plan. Genito Road is a four-lane road from Hull Street Road to Charter Colony Parkway. In 2015, the traffic count on this section of Genito Road was 15,425 vehicles per day (Level of Service ‘B’). Section 19.1-231 of the County Code outlines the general requirements to meet the needs of the traffic generated by a proposed development, including acceptable levels of service. This proposed residential development would contribute to an identifiable need for transportation improvements. The applicant has not offered to provide any mitigating road improvements. The property is within Traffic Shed 5, which encompasses the area of the County west of Courthouse Road, south of Powhite Parkway, and north of Hull Street Road. Several roads in 817SN0548-2017JUL26-BOS-RPT this area of the County have been widened to four or six lanes. However, some roads in this part of the County will need to be improved or widened to address safety and accommodate the increase in traffic generated, in part, by this development. An applicant may choose to address the development’s impact on the county’s road transportation network through dedication of property, construction of road improvements, or a cash proffer. If an applicant elects to offer cash to address the impact on the county’s road transportation network, Transportation staff has calculated the average impact of a single- family dwelling unit on the transportation network to be $12,652; however, the Board of Supervisors has adopted a policy establishing that it would accept a maximum cash proffer of $9,400 per dwelling unit as addressing the traffic impacts of residential development, with all of the funds to be dedicated towards improvements to the road network. As such, if the applicant chooses to address the development’s impacts on the county’s road network through payment of a cash proffer, $9,400 per dwelling unit for improvements to the road network would be appropriate. The applicant has proffered to pay $9,400 per dwelling unit (Proffered Condition 1). Staff supports the request. 917SN0548-2017JUL26-BOS-RPT FIRE AND EMERGENCY MEDICAL SERVICES Staff Contact: Anthony Batten (804-717-6167) battena@chesterfield.gov Mission The mission of Fire and Emergency Medical Services (EMS) is to protect life, property and the environment through a comprehensive fire and life safety program that ensures an adequate and timely response to emergencies. Response Times The proposed development is located in the urban response zone for which Fire & EMS has a goal of responding to at least 90% of the calls for service in under seven (7) minutes. Fire and EMS is currently unable to meet that goal. Nearby Fire/EMS Facility The Swift Creek Fire Station, Company Number 16 Anticipated Fire & EMS Impacts/Needs Based on an average of 0.259 calls per dwelling, it is estimated that this development will generate seven (7) annual calls for Fire/EMS services. Additional Fire and EMS Comments When the property is developed, the number of hydrants, quantity of water needed for fire protection, and access requirements will be evaluated during the plans review process. 1017SN0548-2017JUL26-BOS-RPT SCHOOLS Staff Contact: Atonja Allen (804-318-8740) atonja_allen@ccpsnet.net Mission High performing, high quality public schools contribute to the quality of life and economic vitality of the County. The comprehensive plan suggests a greater focus should be placed on linking schools with communities by providing greater access, flexible designs and locations that better meet the needs of the communities in which they are located. Capital Improvements The School Board FY2017 adopted Capital Improvement Plan (CIP) continues to support the 2013 voter approved school revitalization program that will replace or renovate ten schools and construct one new elementary school to add capacity in the Midlothian area of the county. The ten existing facilities that are part of the revitalization program are Providence Middle School, Monacan High School, Manchester Middle School, Beulah Elementary School, Enon Elementary School, Matoaca Elementary School, Harrowgate Elementary School, Reams Elementary School, Crestwood Elementary School, and Ettrick Elementary School. The project at Providence Middle School is currently in construction, a new Manchester Middle School is planned for construction on the existing school site,and the project at Monacan High School is complete. Additional information on the CIP can be found in the financial section of the CCPS Adopted Budget for FY2017.

In October 2016 the Board of Supervisors approved Case 17PD0105 for substantial accord to permit a elementary school located at 1501 Old Hundred Road, and the school division has acquired this property. Post 2020, the Plan also recommends revitalization or replacement of Swift Creek Middle School, as well as a new middle school in the vicinity of Hull Street and Otterdale Roads and a new high school in the vicinity of Genito and Otterdale Roads northwest 1117SN0548-2017JUL26-BOS-RPT of Swift Creek Reservoir, however at this time a budget has not been developed for the acquisition of land or construction of these school facilities as recommended in the Plan. LIBRARIES Staff Contact: Jennifer Stevens (804-751-4998) stevensj@chesterfield.gov Mission The public library system’s role in the county has expanded beyond its traditional function as a resource for information and materials, and now serves as a community gathering place for educational, cultural and informational services; community support during emergencies; economic development; and revitalization activities. Nearby Libraries North Courthouse Road Library PARKS AND RECREATION Staff Contact: Stuart Connock (804-751-4484)ConnockS@chesterfield.gov Mission The County supports a high-quality park system to provide residents and visitors with equitable access to active and passive recreation opportunities. The 2012 level of service is 5.9 acres of regional, community and neighborhood parkland per 1,000 persons whereas the target level of service is 9 acres per 1,000 persons.

The Plan recommends a route along Genito Road, the south boundary of the applicant’s project, under Case 93SN0171. This segment of the route has already been completed with a prior road project for pedestrian/bicycle facilities and no additional improvements are recommended. The applicant is also encouraged to consider a pedestrian/bicycle system within the development and connection to the Genito Road Plan route.
