2. COUNTY ADMINISTRATOR'S COMMR~TS
Ms. Curtin presented an update on the status of the
County's legislative program. She stated that the
County's legislative requests relative to the County
Charter and concealed weapons applications have passed
through the Senate and are now' in the House. She further
stated that bills are still being introduced, and the
legislative team is in the process of reviewing the bills.
She stated that bills have been identified relative to the
priorities that the Board referenced in addition to the
legislative requests. She further stated that a major
concern of the legislative team is the State budget,
noting that the deadline for budget amendments was January
18, 2001, and the team will provide a report to the
Capital Region Caucus on January' 29, 2001 relative to the
budget amendments. She stated that both the House and
Senate will release their budgets on February 4, 2001.
She further stated that the legislative team is following
a number of growth management bills relative to the
Board's first priority of protecting cash proffers, and
noted that it does not appear a bill capping cash proffers
will be introduced; instead, a '~proffer disclosure bill"
has been introduced which will provide information to the
legislature on the cash proffers collected by localities.
Mr. Miller referenced a House Bill relative to the
necessity of for-profit group homes to complete the zoning
process prior to locating in a residential area, and
indicated that he would support this. He requested that
the legislative team research the issue.
Mr. Wendell Roberts, Assistant County Attorney and member
of the County's legislative team, stated that the
legislative request to put in place a State certification
program for construction site operators has been passed by
the Senate Agriculture, Conservation and Natural Resources
Committee and is now on the Senate floor. He further
stated that the request to provide that any proceeding
before the Board of Zoning Appeals would be stayed in the
event of a criminal proceeding in the same matter is
scheduled to be heard in a House sub-committee on January
26, 2001, and noted that the challenge involved with this
request is to find statutory language which accomplishes
the County's goals without impeding the zoning enforcement
practices of other localities. He stated that Senate Bill
880 which will allow localities the discretion not to
fingerprint for concealed weapons permits for people who
01-41
1/24/01
are applying a second time has passed the full Senate and
has been communicated to the House. He further stated
that House Bill 2170, which clarifies the County's
authority to increase parking fines from $20 to $50, will
be heard this evening by a sub-committee of the House
Committee on Militia and Police. He then reviewed bills
for which the Board has taken support/oppose positions.
There was brief discussion relative to
legislation involving primary seatbelt laws.
proposed
Ms. Curtin stated that a legislative breakfast for Board
members and the legislative delegation is scheduled for
February 8, 2001.
Mr. John Mathiasen, Executive Director of Richmond
International Airport, presented an update on progress at
the airport. He stated that construction projects are
progressing according to schedule -- Concourse C extension
is currently being re-bid; the bid for the public parking
garage will be awarded next week; and the bid has been
awarded for the rent-a-car parking garage and construction
will begin soon. He further stated that a new chairman
will be coming onto the Airport Commission later this
year, and indicated that he feels 2001 will be an exciting
year for the airport.
Mr. Bryant presented an update of the water taste issue at
the Addison-Evans Water Production Facility. He stated
that, according to the taste panel, there has been an
improvement in the taste of the water since the Board's
last meeting. He further stated that there has been a
decrease in the number of calls being received from
customers, and noted that Utilities employees are in the
process of calling back customers who voiced complaints
relative to water taste. He stated that, after contacting
34 customers, 25 have indicated that the metallic taste
has either disappeared or greatly improved; seven have
indicated that they do not see a change; and two were
unable to comment because they are no longer drinking the
water. He further stated that the improvement is
attributed to an increase in the amount of carbon being
supplied to the water. He further stated that Utilities
employees are continuing to work with the consultant to
resolve the issue, and noted that an information notice
relative to the resolution of the water taste issue will
be sent to customers in their utility bills.
When asked, Mr. Bryant stated that carbon is primarily
used to address taste and odors that originate from
organics in the raw water source. He further stated that
those organics combine with the substance used to
disinfect the water which often causes taste issues.
Mr. Warren expressed concerns relative to notification of
citizens of future water taste and/or odor issues.
Mr. Bryant stated that the Utilities Department will take
a more pro-active approach in notifying customers in the
future and indicated that he feels the press is the
quickest method of notification.
When asked, Mr. Bryant stated that the source of the taste
has still not been identified, but appears to be a natural
organic in the water in the reservoir reacting with the
solution used as a disinfectant. He further stated that
the taste is not present in the water prior to adding the
disinfectant, but indicated that the carbon would not have
an impact if the problem was totally due to the
1/24/01
01-42
disinfectant.
When asked to make a guess as to the substance in the
water that is reacting with the disinfectant, Mr. Bryant
stated that he feels it is something that is produced by
the bacteria algae.
Mr. Ramsey noted that Mr. Bryant is working with the State
Health Department and the Environmental Protection Agency
to attempt to determine the substance.
Mrs. Humphrey welcomed Junior Girl Scout Troop 427 from Bethia
Methodist Church who were present at the meeting.
3. BOARD COMMITTEE REPORTS
Mr. Warren stated that approximately 200 people attended his
constituents' meeting on January 22, 2001 relative to a zoning
proposal for a new golf course.
Mr. McHale stated that he represented the Board at Bensley-
Bermuda Volunteer Rescue Squad's annual meeting on January 20,
2001. He further stated that he accompanied Mrs. Humphrey on
January 22, 2001 for the announcement of a joint venture
between Virginia Commonwealth University and the County to
expand the Biotechnical Medical Park, and indicated that he
feels the partnership represents a significant step forward for
Chesterfield County's future. He stated that he will hold a
joint constituents' meeting with Mr. Miller on January 29, 2001
relative to transportation initiatives in the Dale and Bermuda
Districts.
Mr. Miller stated that approximately 100 people attended the
breakfast that he co-hosted with Delegate Sam Nixon and Senator
Steve Martin on January 13, 2001.
Mrs. Humphrey stated that she attended a press conference on
January 22, 2001 where the new partnership between Virginia
Commonwealth University and the County was announced. She
further stated that she feels the partnership is a step that
will take the County well into the next century in terms of
jobs and quality of life. She stated that on January 14, 2001,
while traveling on Powhite Parkway, someone fired a weapon at
the passenger window of her husband's vehicle, and on January
17, 2001, her home was broken into and she was a victim of
robbery and vandalism. She expressed appreciation to the
Police Department for their ongoing efforts to solve both of
these cases. She stated that, when she realized her home had
been vandalized, she was unable to use her cellular phone
because there is no tower in Winterpock. She further stated
that there is a zoning request pending for a proposed tower
site in Winterpock and requested that Mr. Jacobson double
advertise the case so that it can be heard by the Board as soon
as possible. She stated that on January 16, 2001, she met with
the Matoaca representatives of the Drug Abuse Task Force, and
noted that the ~Use You Lose" bumper sticker initiative will be
offered to the Virginia State University campus.

their puppies can produce 67,000 more dogs in six years; and
WHEREAS, it is estimated that millions of dogs and cats
are euthanized each year in the United States, although many of
them are healthy and adoptable, simply because there are not
enough homes; and

Virginia, Division of Animal Industry Services, states that
130,578 dogs and cats were euthanized in Virginia in 1999; and
WHEREAS, the problems of pet overpopulation costs the

Nays: None.
Mrs. Humphrey presented the executed resolution to Mr. Bailey
and expressed appreciation for the programs offered by the
PetFix Coalition.
6, WORK SESSIONS
6.A. REGARDING THE REVISED SUBDIVISION ORDINANCE
Mr. Dave Hainley, Planning Administrator, presented highlights
of proposed amendments to the Subdivision, Utility and Zoning
Ordinances. He stated that most of the changes are being made
for improvements in clarity and for organizational purposes.
He further stated that the team that reviewed the existing
ordinances was comprised of both County staff and
representatives from the Home Builders Association. He stated
that new processes are being recommended to address
shortcomings in the current ordinance which cannot be resolved
in an expeditious or customer-friendly manner. He further
stated that major issues of the new processes involve private
citizens who own parcels that they' want to add to or divide;
and access requirements for subdivisions. He stated that the
Planning Commission held two public hearings relative to the
ordinance amendments where two people spoke -- one requesting
that the amendments be approved, and the other requesting a
minor change in the subdivision ordinance. He further stated
that the new processes recommended for inclusion in the
modified subdivision ordinance include: the process for small
subdivisions or residentially zoned land on existing streets
(~'minor subdivisions" under the proposed ordinance); and the
process for modification to older road strip lots.
When asked, Mr. Hainley stated that the new process for
modification to older road strip lots does not create new
parcels -- it allows them to be modified and tweaked without
being brought up to current standards. He further stated that
the third new process being recommended is relative to a review
of parcels being road stripped before they are recorded to make
sure that they are legally exempted from the subdivision
process. He stated that Ms. Judy Worthington, Clerk of the
Circuit Court, has worked with the Planning Department to
establish a new process where the Circuit Court Clerk's Office
will no longer allow road strip parcels to be recorded without
Planning Department sign-off.
Deputy Fire Chief Paul Shorter provided information relative to
the necessity for access for public safety. He stated that
Public Safety departments are interested in obtaining more than
one access for developments. He further stated that, as
developments are designed through the subdivision process, stub
roads are put in place for future adjacent development. He
stated that, typically when the zoning process begins for
adjacent development, citizens from the existing development
express concerns relative to others having access through their
neighborhood; the Transportation Department feels there will be
01-45
too much traffic; and negotiations with the developer begin in
an attempt to secure the second access. He further stated that
those negotiations typically evolve into an emergency access
which, after development is complete, the County must assume
the maintenance of, or a boulevard entrance which has proven
not to be a viable alternative. He stated that, as the
subdivision ordinance exists today, after the development of 50
homes, a second access must be provided. He further stated
that the proposed ordinance amendments require that, if a
developer desires to construct more than 50 homes, he must
construct a residential collector road that would stub into
adjacent property. He noted that a residential collector road
would not have homes facing it and would always be available
for connection by adjacent property owners, ensuring that a
second access will be provided for and not be negotiated out
through the zoning process. He stated that the Public Safety
departments see this is a desirable alternative to the existing
ordinance.
Discussion, questions and comments ensued relative to the
requirements for developing and maintaining residential
collector roads.
Mr. McHale expressed concerns as to whether, if the
recommendation is adopted, a portion of the road would be in
place and, therefore, residents would be aware that, if future
development occurs, the access road would be completed.
Mr. Hainley stated that the road would be built to Virginia
Department of Transportation (VDOT) standards which typically
is one lot beyond the end of existing roads or lots coming into
developments. He further stated that collector roads do not
have lots that feed directly into them, have adjacent buffers,
and have residences backing up to them.
Discussion ensued relative to the point at which a developer
would be required to complete a collector road and the
appearance of the road.
Mr. William Poole, Assistant Director of Planning, stated that
staff will prepare graphics for the Board's public hearing
clarifying the appearance of a collector road as it is
developed.
Mr. Hainley stated that, after the Planning Commission's second
public hearing, one short paragraph was added requiring all
lines, pedestals and transformers to be placed underground if
they are located in the front yard of a residential area. He
further stated that utilities companies have expressed strong
concerns relative to this proposal.
When asked, Mr. Hainley stated that the development community
has expressed concerns with the practicality of placing
transformers in residential zones underground and also with
problems that might evolve with fencing if transformers are
placed above ground in back yards. He indicated that staff
will continue to work with the development community prior to
the public hearing and will provide the Board with an update of
any changes that might occur through these efforts.
6.B. PROPOSED FY2002-FY2007 CAPITAL IMPROVEMenT PROGRAM
Mr. Allan Carmody, Budget Manager, presented the proposed
Capital Improvement Program (CIP) for FY2002-2007. He stated
that the program proposes the last increment of approved
general obligation bond funding in FY2002; consists of a six-
year plan; proposes projects to consider for a referendum;
1/24/01
01-46
recommends a continued decreased reliance on long-term
financing; strengthens support of the Triple AAA credit rating;
and proposes a commitment to investing in general governmental
facilities. He stated that the Proposed CIP totals
$544,728,200, including $186,180,400 for General County;
$231,941,800 for the School Board; and $126,606,000 for the
Utilities Department. He reviewed the proposed General County
CIP revenue summary; the proposed General County CIP
expenditure summary; and Reliance on Debt Funding for County
only. He stated that the County's debt ratio has a very
positive downward trend and noted that approximately $209
million of the $228.374 million that was approved in the 1996
bond referendum will be issued by the time of the next bond
sale in February 2001. He reviewed the status of major
projects funded with the 1996 authorized bonds. He then
reviewed Planned Debt Issuance for CIP Planning Years 2002-
2007; a potential schedule for referendum planning; and
Proposed Referendum Summary. He stated that projects totaling
$201,748,500 have been recommended for the Board's
consideration. He reviewed Proposed Referendum Details and
Unfunded Projects, and stated that total unfunded requests for
the current budget year exceed $32.4 million. He then reviewed
the Proposed Schools CIP for FY2002-2007 and stated that the
Schools program also tends to advance referendum projects and
addresses four major categories of improvement -- future
overcrowding relief; renovations and improvements; technology;
and specialty centers. He reviewed the Schools Proposed CIP
Summary; New Projects for FY2003-FY2007; and issues relative to
Future Overcrowding Relief. He stated that the need for school
facilities is driven primarily by programs rather than
population growth.
Discussion, questions and comments ensued relative to the need
for special programs and the number of special needs students.
Mrs. Humphrey requested information relative to the specific
number of special needs students in the school system.
Mr. Carmody continued to review Future Overcrowding Relief and
stated that the number of trailers is expected to decline
significantly as the referendum projects are implemented. He
further stated that the proposal for dealing with future
overcrowding relief of schools over the period FY2003-07
consists of classroom additions in the amount of $32.384
million and future new schools in the amount of $90.391
million. He then reviewed Renovations and Improvements.
There was brief discussion relative to the possibility of
discontinuing use of Watkins Annex and the Instruction Division
Center (IDC) by School Administration.
Mr. Carmody reviewed proposed Highlights of Renovations and
Improvements, including $34.513 million for facility
improvements; $5 million for Greenfield Elementary School
expansion; and $2 million for High School field house
improvements at both Monacan and Midlothian.
When asked, Dr. Chafin came forward and stated that track
renovations are not included in the field house improvement
projects, but are included in another category of major
maintenance improvements.
Mr. Carmody reviewed proposed Highlights for Technology and
stated that the student to computer ratio goal is 5:1.
Judge Bonnie Davis came forward and stated that, based on past
history, the necessity for a sixth courtroom for the new
Juvenile and Domestic Relations (JDR) Court building is
anticipated for the future and, therefore, completion of the
1/24/o
01-47
sixth courtroom has been included in the proposed CIP. She
further stated that, based on a dramatic increase in caseload,
a third additional judgeship was obtained in 1993; a fourth in
1996; and a fifth has been recommended for 2001.
When asked, Judge Davis stated that, according to 1999
statistics, Chesterfield JDR Court judges each handled 5,948
cases, and the Richmond JDR Court caseload was 4,884 per judge.
Mr. Ramsey stated that an additional year has been included in
the CIP, anticipating that the Board may want to include a bond
referendum in the fall of 2002. He further stated that the
School System has significant decisions to make as to specific
projects to be included in a bond referendum which should be
completed over the course of the next year. He stated that, to
have a bond referendum in November 2002, the bond projects must
be determined and the package ready to go by August 2002.
Mrs. Humphrey stated that she feels the Board should hold a
work session at the appropriate time to discuss the possibility
of a bond referendum.
Mr. Barber expressed concerns relative to the length of time it
takes the Virginia Department of Transportation (VDOT) to
complete road projects after they have been approved by the
Board, and stated that he has requested that Ms. Dickson
research the possibility of allocating local money from bond
referendums or future CIPs to local road building without
diminishing the County's fiscal stability.

He further stated that the ultimate right of way policy ensures
that the setback will not be measured from the existing right
of way.
Mr. Miller stated that he feels the proposal has improved

01SN0180
In Clover Hill Magisterial District, THE CHESTERFIELD COUNTY
PL~-NNING COMMISSION requests Conditional Use Planned
Development and amendment of zoning district map to permit a
second freestanding sign. The density of such amendment will
be controlled by zoning conditions or Ordinance standards. The
Comprehensive Plan suggests the property is appropriate for
single family residential use of 2.0 units per acre or less and
for mixed use corridor uses. This request lies in a
Residential (R-7) District on 49.4 acres and is known as 13900
Hull Street Road. Tax ID 726-673-1225 (Sheet 15).
Mr. Jacobson presented a summary of Case 01SN0180 and stated
that the existing sign on the subject property is a low granite
sign built originally with the school. He further stated that
school staff and citizens desire to have a more typical
freestanding sign with a lighted reader board for night
1/24/01
01-76
visibility of school activities. He stated that staff
originally recommended denial because it was felt the applicant
could adhere to the sign standards of the Zoning Ordinance and
provide adequate identification. He further stated that the
applicant desired to maintain the existing sign in addition to
the proposed sign and indicated that the Planning Commission
recommended approval subject to one condition.
Dr. Brenda Mayo, representing the applicant, stated that the
existing sign at the school has historical significance, but
lacks visibility. She noted that major school activities must
be advertised with paper signs in front of the school. She
stated that the faculty and student body feel the proposed sign
will be an enhancement to the school property, and requested
the Board's approval as recommended by the Planning Commission.
No one came forward to speak in favor of or against the Case.
On motion of Mr. Warren, seconded by Mrs. Humphrey, the Board
approved Case 01SN0180 subject to the following condition:
The sign shall be a monument style and shall not exceed a
height of ten (10) feet and an area of fifty (50) square feet,
provided however, if changeable copy is incorporated into the
sign face, the sign area may be increased by twenty-five (25)
percent subject to the changeable component of the sign face
occupying less than half the total area of the sign face.
Illumination of the sign shall comply with Section 19-635 (e)
of the Zoning Ordinance. The base of the sign shall be covered
with a brick veneer similar in color to the brick used for the
school building on this site. (P)
Ayes: Humphrey, Miller, Barber, McHale and Warren.
Nays: None.
01SN0120 (Amended)
In Clover Hill Magisterial District, AMBERLEIGH, L.L.C.
requests rezoning and amendment of zoning district map from
Residential (R-9), Community Business (C-3) and Corporate
Office (0-2) to Community Business (C-3) and Residential-
Townhouse (R-TH) with Conditional Use Planned Development to
permit exceptions to Zoning Ordinance requirements.
Residential use of up to eight (8) units per acre is permitted
in a Residential-Townhouse (R-TH) District. The density of the
Community Business (C-3) portion will be controlled by zoning
conditions or Ordinance standards. The Comprehensive Plan
suggests the property is appropriate for community mixed use
and mixed use corridor use. This request lies on 41.6 acres
fronting approximately 1,720 feet on the north line of Hull
Street Road, also fronting approximately 285 feet on the west
line of Gregory Pond Road and is located in the northwest
quadrant of the intersection of these roads. Tax IDs 751-688-
8252 and 9232, 751-689-9218, 752-688-5413 and 753-688-2922 and
4302 (Sheet 10) .
Mr. Jacobson presented a summary of Case 01SN0120 and stated
that the proposed request conforms to the Route 360 Corridor
Plan. He further stated that staff had two technical issues
relative to the proposal: 1) the main entrance of the proposed
development is at the intersection with Lynchester Drive and
the Transportation Department has expressed concerns that this
may cause a traffic signal to evolve at the intersection which
is inconsistent with the Plan; and 2) the applicant has
proposed up to 141 lots of residential development with only
one public road entrance, noting that the applicant has
indicated they are providing an emergency access through
1/24/01
01-77
Proffered Condition 15; but the Fire Department recommends a
second access via a public road. He stated also that the
applicant had failed to fully address the potential impact of
the development on the public school system. He further stated
that staff is recommending approval subject to the applicant
addressing the impact on schools, transportation and public
safety. He further stated the Planning Commission recommended
approval and acceptance of the proffered conditions, noting
that the Commission was comfortable with the conditions offered
by the applicant relative to the impact on capital facilities
noting that studies had shown this type of housing does not
generate the typical number of school age children per
household; felt that there was a need for the Lynchester
Drive/Route 360 crossover to remain open; and also felt that
Proffered Condition 15 provided adequate emergency access.
When asked, Mr. McCracken stated that, according to the
proffered conditions, the Lynchester Drive crossover would
remain open.
Mr. ~dy Scherzer, representing the applicant, stated that he
feels staff's technical issues have been addressed, and noted
that the applicant has proffered more relative to addressing
the impact on capital facilities than in previously approved
cluster cases. He further stated that the Planning
Commission's recommendation is acceptable.
When asked, the developer of the proposed projects, Mr. Richard
Collier, stated that the billboard currently located on the
subject property will be removed.
Mr. Miller stated that a number of people who reside in Falling
Creek Farms have expressed concerns relative to the closing of
the Lynchester Drive crossover.
Mr. Scherzer stated that the applicant's proffered conditions
do not require the closing of the crossover.
Mr. Warren stated that residents of Falling Creek Farms had
also expressed concerns that they were not notified of
community meetings relative to the case.
Mr. Scherzer stated that all adjacent property owners were
notified; meetings were held with the 360 East Corridor
Committee; and there was no intent to deprive any property
owner from the process.
Mr. Warren encouraged citizens from the Dale District to
acquire representation on the 360 East Corridor Committee to
ensure notification of future zoning cases.
Mr. Scherzer stated that, for zoning notification purposes,
Planning staff keeps records of active community associations.
He encouraged all County community associations to notify the
Planning Department of the name and address of an active member
who could be notified of future requests for rezoning.
Mr. Herman Baumgart, resident of Falling Creek Farms, expressed
concerns relative to Falling Creek Farms residents not
receiving notification of the proposed request. He further
expressed concerns relative to VDOT's original position to
close the crossover at Lynchester Drive and to increased
traffic and visibility problems on Fordham Road.
When asked, ten residents of Falling Creek Farms who were
present at the meeting stood is support of the crossover at
Lynchester Road remaining open as well as installation of a
traffic signal, if necessary.

Mr. William Shewmake, representing the Broad Rock Fishing Club
and various adjacent landowners, stated that Gregory's Pond has
been in existence for over 150 years and has been a vital part
of generations of families. He further stated that the
developer, Mr. Richard Collier, worked with the residents to
preserve the "rural feel" of the area and also to protect the
pond. He stated that his clients fully support the project and
feel it will be a vast improvement over the existing zoning.
Mr. Dick White, representing the 360 East Corridor Committee
and Bexley Homeowners Association, stated that the Committee
supports the request. He reiterated the need to keep the
Lynchester Road crossover open.
There being no one else present to speak to the Case, the
public hearing was closed.
When asked, Mr. McCracken stated that VDOT has not taken a
position on the Lynchester Drive crossover and noted that, at
this time, the Transportation Department will follow the
Board's direction to keep the crossover open. He stated that
a traffic signal may be justified as the development
progresses.
Mr. Warren expressed appreciation to Messrs. Scherzer and
Collier for their efforts in addressing citizens' concerns.
He stated that he is pleased that the Lynchester Drive
crossover will remain open and the developer has agreed to pay
for a traffic signal, if justified.
Mr. Warren then made a motion, seconded by Mr. Miller, for the
Board to approve Case 01SN0120 and accept the proffered
conditions.
Mrs. Humphrey suggested that staff address the issue of
notifying citizens from other districts when zoning requests
for property located in close proximity to the other district
are involved. She encouraged the Falling Creek Farms residents
to attend the 360 East Corridor Committee meetings. She
expressed appreciation to Mr. Collier for the quality
developments that he has brought to the County.
Mrs. Humphrey then called for a vote on the motion of Mr.
Warren, seconded by Mr. Miller, for the Board to approve Case
01SN0120 and accept the following proffered conditions:
