Mr. Clay Bowles, Director of General Services, provided an
update to the Board of Supervisors regarding the status of
various Airport capital improvement projects, facility growth
and development opportunities. He stated many initiatives
that have long been in the planning stages are now beginning
to come to fruition. He further stated the County Airport is
well positioned as a General Aviation Reliever with
recreational aviation, corporate aviation and government as
three major user groups. He stated the facility has a 5500 -
foot runway which is being planned to expand to 6300 feet. He
further stated approximately 100 aircraft are based at the
County Airport, resulting in about 64,000 flight operations
annually and over 750,000 gallons of fuel being pumped. He
reviewed several projects now commencing, which include
replacement fuel farm construction; Runway 33 - obstruction/
tree removal; and runway extension - land acquisition. He
stated in addition to the capital projects, the department is
currently working with three groups who wish to collaborate
in the ongoing development of the airport. He noted all these
groups would potentially construct facilities in the North
Ramp area, which was previously prepared to be the next of
the Airport expansion. He stated the county's current Fixed
18-616
09/26/18
Based Operator is seeking a 30 -year extension to its
agreement to continue providing all current services. He
further stated part of this proposal would include a land
lease for the construction of an additional corporate hangar.
He stated the county is also working with a business wishing
to establish a new Fixed Based Operator service at the
Airport. He further stated they are proposing to provide a
flight school, aircraft maintenance, storage and fuel sales.
He noted this would include a 30 -year FBO agreement and a
land lease for the construction of two 10,000 square foot
hangars. He stated there is also an entity wishing to
establish a Specialized Aviation Service Operator function.
He further stated they will primarily store their own
aircraft but may sublease hangar storage in the future. He
stated like the other entities, they are seeking a land lease
to construct a 10,000 square foot hangar. He noted
negotiations are ongoing with all these groups. He stated all
of these proposals provide for the continued growth and
positive development of the facility. He further stated there
is also the opportunity for increased services, competition
amongst FBOs and growth in the number of jobs provided by
these companies. In closing, he stated as a facility that
accepts federal grant funding, it is important to ensure that
decisions are compliant with grant assurances to include
encouraging competition, ability of entities to establish a
business at the airport and making the facility as
financially self-sustaining as possible.
In response to Ms. Jaeckle's question, Mr. Bowles stated
economic nondiscrimination ensures that fee structures are
the same for different groups.
Discussion ensued relative to Board agenda items pertaining
to consideration of land lease and FBO services.
In response to Mr. Holland's question, Mr. Bowles stated the
Airport Advisory Board has been receiving regular updates on
proposal considerations and capital projects.
Mr. Winslow expressed his appreciation on the emphasis placed
on the taxpayer throughout the discussion.
Dr. Casey noted a public hearing will also be held in regard
to the establishment of the Specialized Aviation Service
Operator function.
3.D. HARROWGATE PARK UPDATE
Mr. Scott Zaremba, Deputy County Administrator, and Ms. Janit
Llewellyn, Principal Planner in the Planning and Construction
Services Division of Parks and Recreation, provided an update
to the Board of Supervisors on the development plan for
replacement and additions to the Harrowgate Park, due to
construction of new replacement Harrowgate Elementary School
on the park site.
Ms. Llewellyn stated the park development combined with the
new elementary school provides one comprehensive park and
educational complex. She further stated a public information
meeting was held on September 11 at Carver Middle School. She

Sloan and Ms. Carrie Coyner. She further stated citizens
liked the plan especially the neighborhood connections,
setbacks and buffers from the active recreation areas. She
then highlighted park facilities to be retained near the new
school site which include basketball courts and the
restrooms, as well as the addition of a park sign at Harrow
Drive; trails from Parkgate Drive and Harrow Drive and a
parking lot.
In response to Ms. Jaeckle's question, Ms. Llewellyn stated
the basketball courts operating hours would be enforced from
dawn to dusk to address citizen concerns.
Ms. Llewellyn continued her presentation by stating Part 2 of
the park development focuses on the athletic facilities at
Carver Middle School. She further stated this phase improves
and adds new facilities close to the middle school which
includes a pathway connection to the park from Harrow Drive;
new steps and a handicapped ramp to fields; paved circulation
system surrounding the fields and activity areas; lighted
fields; new restroom and concession facility; and improved
striping to increase parking capacity. She stated the lighted
fields improvements will be great for neighbors adjacent to
the park as this lighting has little spill over to adjacent
properties and leagues will have instant cut on of the lights
and the LED lighting features web -based controls. She further
stated Part 3 of the replacement park concept focuses on
replacement of passive recreation facilities lost by
Harrowgate Elementary School. She stated this area is
directly adjacent to the existing park on approximately 26
acres the county bought at the end of August. She noted there
is a good mix of woodlands, some open areas and forested
areas buffering the surrounding neighborhoods. She stated
this new parcel provides considerable acreage will be
available for future recreation needs. In summary, she stated
the Harrowgate Park Replacement concept adds acreage of
parkland taking Harrowgate Park from 35 to 45 acres which
provides more acreage and upgraded facilities than the
existing park; provides new, greatly enhanced facilities; new
facilities such as the playground and shelter will be unique
to the park and use innovative designs; additional trails
will be added with multiple connection points into the
adjacent neighborhoods; and the additional park acreage
allows for future park facility expansion or new amenities
like a dog park and community garden. In closing, she
highlighted next steps which include the funding
appropriation, design and groundbreaking.
Ms. Jaeckle requested that additional parking be considered
to accommodate new facilities. She noted the importance of
retaining assets within the community.
Mr. Elswick expressed concerns relative to the budgetary
ramifications of the proposed open play area.
Discussion ensued relative to possible grant funding for the
proposed open play area.
In response to Mr. Holland's question regarding appropriation
of funds for the Harrowgate Park Replacement Project, Mr.
Zaremba stated $5.1 million in bonds proceeds will be
obtained through the Virginia Resource Authority's pooled,
fall sale.

3.E. COMMITTEE ON THE FUTURE'S 2017 REPORT ACTION PLAN
In response to the Committee on the Future's October 2017
report titled "Promoting Future Financial Independence for
All Chesterfield Residents," the Financial Independence
Impact Team was formed to evaluate the recommendations made
by the Committee on the Future in the October 2017 report.
Ms. Kiva Rogers, Director of Social Services, and Ms. Kelly
Fried, Assistant Director of Mental Health Support Services,
provided an update to the Board of Supervisors on the team's
progress and next steps.
Regarding the strategic approach, Ms. Fried stated the
Financial Independence Impact Team developed a steering
committee representing a cross -departmental collaboration.
She further stated the committee was renamed to distinguish
it from the Committee on the Future. She stated sub -teams
will be developed in the near future to address identified
strategies. She further stated the plan is to incorporate
community partners and citizen representation on the sub -
teams.
Mr. Elswick recommended incorporating faith -based leaders on
the steering committee.
Mr. Holland also suggested including a financial
representative from the Chesterfield or Virginia Credit Union
on the steering committee.
In response to Mr. Elswick and Mr. Holland's recommendation,
Mr. Winslow stated representatives from the faith -based
community and financial intuitions would be a good fit on
future sub -teams.
Mr. Elswick stated having the viewpoint from the faith -based
community will only help to promote future financial
independence for residents.
Ms. Fried continued her presentation by stressing the
importance of ensuring collaboration with the committee
addressing the Jeff Davis Plan. She stated there were 43
recommendations for strategies throughout the report. She
further stated the next step is to inventory existing
initiatives that address the strategies in the report, as
well as determine gaps in strategies and evaluate using the
following criteria: operational feasibility - how well will
it work in the county including population demand and
response; resource feasibility - how practical is the
strategy in light of available resources; scheduling
feasibility - what is a reasonable timetable to implement the
strategy; and economic feasibility - how cost-effective is
the strategy. She further stated other steps include
analyzing the data to determine the overall feasibility of
each strategy and develop sub -teams to address the identified
strategies. In closing, she recognized members of the
steering committee, who were in attendance.
Discussion ensued relative to potential partnerships.
Dr. Casey noted the next update would encompass the structure
of the sub -teams and the specific roles those sub -teams would
play.
Board members stressed the importance of addressing financial
literacy and independence for residents, as well as
collaborations with specific financial and faith -based
institutions.

Area Plan.
Mr. Elswick recommended the implementation of a comprehensive
sidewalk policy to address connectivity within communities.
Mr. Gillies concurred with Mr. Elswick's recommendation.
Regarding the new zoning ordinance, Mr. Gillies stated the
plan is to create new residential zoning districts to include
single family detached, single family attached and multi-
family; modernize commercial and industrial zoning district
to address new retail and retail service trends, address
advanced manufacturing trends, and adaptive reuse of
commercial and industrial property; find a better solution to
the CUPD option to provide mixed use development
opportunities within new zoning districts and promote an
Urban Village concept through overlays; and consider the
inclusion of "SmartCode" techniques.
Discussion ensued relative to the conception of the new
zoning ordinance.
Mr. Holland stressed the importance of continuing to research
planning fee structures, improvements, and cost savings
regarding the business community.
Ms. Jaeckle stressed the importance of the quality of
neighborhoods within the county, especially the idea of

3.G. SOCIAL SERVICES BOARD ANNUAL UPDATE
Reverend Shawn Franco, Chairman of the Chesterfield -Colonial
Heights Board of Social Services recognized members of the
Board, who were in attendance.
On behalf of the Chesterfield -Colonial Heights Board of
Social Services, Ms. Kiva Rogers, Director of the
Chesterfield -Colonial Heights Department of Social Services,
and Ms. Danika Briggs, Assistant Director, presented
information to the Board of Supervisors describing the
department's performance achievements, child welfare,
targeted efforts with able-bodied customers, community
partnerships and FY2019 strategic priorities.
Ms. Rogers reviewed FY2018 performance achievements which
include the completion of the Smith -Wagner addition and
remodeling project; turnover reduced from 20.4 percent to 13
percent; eliminated Medicaid renewal backlog; 100 percent
Medicaid renewal timelines average; 93 percent valid CPS
referral timely response average; and 96 percent CPS ongoing
monthly worker visit average.
Ms. Briggs stated the mission of the department is preserving
and restoring families. She further stated the department
responded to 375 adult protective services allegations;
conducted 599 investigations and/or family assessments of
child abuse and/or neglect; intervened in 88 cases where a
youth was before the court for non-abuse/neglect reasons; 45
children entered foster care; and 38 children achieved
permanency. She further stated while the department's
turnover has improved, turnover in child welfare continues to
be high. She stated this is attributed to the complexity of
the work like high caseloads as well as the challenges
families face like untreated mental health, substance abuse
and generational poverty. She stated one of the department's
key partners is The Forgotten Initiative, an organization
that mobilizes and equips the faith community to make a
difference in the lives of Department of Social Services
workers, foster parents, and families through projects and
mentoring.
Ms. Jaeckle recognized Ms. Angie Grant, founder of the
Chesterfield Chapter of The Forgotten Imitative, who was in
attendance and commended her tremendous efforts.
Ms. Briggs continued her presentation by stating another
focus of the department's mission is to encourage self-
sufficiency of customers. She stated the department has made
tremendous gains over the last three years to achieve through
innovative, non-traditional avenues that are not evident in
most departments of social services.
Ms. Jaeckle recommended extending an offer to the state for
Chesterfield to be a pilot locality for the Medicaid
Expansion employment services mandate.
Regarding service delivery, Ms. Briggs continued her
presentation by stating the department is looking at how to
move from a transactional service delivery model where a
customer's identified need is addressed to more of a
transformational model, taking a more holistic and integrated
18-621

IN
approach to service delivery. She stated this entails
assessing clients' needs in a way that they will learn new
skills or ways of thinking that will lead to lifelong changes
because of their interactions with the agency. She further
stated this has been evident especially with the Assessment
and Resource Team which was formerly known as Integrated
Intake.
Ms. Rogers stated guided by the department's strategic plan,
the goal is to have a transformative impact on career
development, recruitment, and development; customer -centric,
able-bodied focus; implementation of Medicaid expansion with
employment services support; and a transformational service
delivery model. She further stated an agenda item will be
considered this evening requesting the allocation of
resources needed to implement the Medicaid expansion plan.
She stated in addition to strengthening quality assurance
practices and creating greater efficiency and improved
customer services, the model will connect newly eligible
Medicaid recipients to the internal workforce pipeline where
they will have the opportunity to receive supportive services
designed to assist them in identifying and reaching their
career goals. She noted the plan also allows for greater
engagement of employers and gives attention to addressing
barriers to employment for customers.
Board members commended Ms. Rogers and Ms. Briggs for the
positive direction the department is headed and the continued
focus on the citizenry and maintaining a viable workforce.
Mr. Elswick recommended having Social Services expand
partnerships with Virginia State University.
3.H. FY2020 BUDGET PREVIEW
Ms. Meghan Coates, Director of Budget and Management,
provided information to the Board of Supervisors relative to
the five-year plan as a starting point for conversations
about the FY2020 budget, information on the economy as a
backdrop for the season, and an update on the timeline and
process for development moving forward. Regarding the
economic backdrop, she stated economic indicators at
national, state, and local levels all highlight continued
resiliency in the economy. She further stated unemployment
continues to hover below what is considered to be the natural
rate at 3.9 nationally, 3.1 state, and 2.9 for Chesterfield.
She stated the growth in employment and wages could have some
unintended consequences, causing additional demand for goods
and services, which has the potential to put upward pressure
on interest rates, prices and wages. She further stated most
sources seem to indicate that we will experience continued
growth through 2019; however, given all of the considerations
described, the county will likely begin to experience some
upward pressure on some of the larger portions of the base
budget which include healthcare costs; debt service;
construction pricing; and utilities. Regarding the general
government five-year plan, she stated the plan will start to
place enhanced focus on the capital plan. She further stated
the current CIP has the general government side reaching the
2.5 percent major maintenance goal by 2023 and that staff
plans to expedite attainment of that goal into FY2020. She
stated some longer -range planning will begin to draft what a
potential slate of projects for a future bond referendum
might entail. She further stated while new operating program
investment on the county side is likely to be limited, there
may be some focus on programs that address new topics that
emerge from demographic shifts.

Ms. Dillon stated Hurricane Florence preparations began on
September 8th, as Emergency Management began to monitor storm
information coming out of the National Hurricane Center and
began daily conference calls with the Virginia Department of
Emergency Management. She further stated Florence would take
a Southwest turn and make landfall in Wilmington, North
Carolina and greatly impact both North and South Carolina.
She further stated on September 17th the first notice of
severe weather was a tornado that had touched down in
Mecklenburg County, Emergency Management monitored this storm
as it came eastward. She stated within half an hour multiple
tornado warnings were all throughout the county with the call
volume exploding for potential tornadoes in the Mosley area,
Midlothian and Bon Air. She noted the total call volume for
this timeframe to the ECC was 263 calls. She stated within
the first half hour the EOC was activated to gain situational
awareness of the impact of the tornadoes, and gain awareness
of public safety response to make coordinated decisions to
help those impacted begin an immediate recovery through mass
care and debris needs. She further stated through data given
on damage reports and radar, the next day the National
Weather Service was immediately able to conduct a survey that
confirmed that Chesterfield had been impacted by three
tornadoes an EF 1 that significantly impacted Hampton Park,
an EF 2 that destroyed 3 structures near Speeks Drive and
Genito and a third that began in Bon Air before crossing in
Henrico and causing damage. She stated the public safety's
response to the tornado was a testament to strong working
partnerships. She further stated all three agencies of Fire,
Police and Sheriff's Office dedicated over a combined total
of nearly 300 personnel to the disaster areas. She stated for
the first time in a disaster response, both the Sheriff's
Office and Fire were able to utilize UAV equipment to gain a
sense of catastrophic damage from an aerial vantage which
proved to be successful in the unified command.
In response to Mr. Holland's question, Ms. Dillon stated all
damage assessments reports were submitted through the
Virginia Public Assistance Center.
Board members commended public safety personnel and those who
volunteered in the EOC for their efforts during the tornado
event and aftermath.
In response to Mr. Elswick's concerns regarding flooding on
Otterdale Road, Mr. Scott Dunn, Assistant Director of
Environmental Engineering, presented images of watersheds
that flow towards two low-lying areas that flooded Otterdale
Road, one for Horsepen Creek, the other for Otterdale Creek.
He stated although these two watersheds are mostly
undeveloped, the above average rainfall the region received
over the summer has saturated the soils within the
watersheds. He further stated with the saturated soil
conditions, any subsequent high intensity rainfall events
create higher runoff than normal and exacerbates any current
flooding issues in low-lying areas.
Mr. Elswick recommended having staff provide options and cost
to reduce the flooding on Otterdale Road.
Mr. Winslow and Ms. Haley concurred with Mr. Elswick's
recommendation for a full analysis.
Mr. Holland also requested of staff to look at other areas
within the county that are affected by flooding.
9.C. TRANSPORTATION ALTERNATIVES UPDATE
18-624
09/26/18
Mr. Jesse Smith, Director of Transportation, provided an
update to the Board of Supervisors on an array of
transportation topics which include the Route 1/301 Corridor
Transit Study, Alternative Transportation Efforts, and
Pedestrian Infrastructure Projects. He stated the county was
successful in obtaining a technical assistance grant from the
Virginia Department of Rail and Public Transportation. He
further stated this grant was used to hire a consultant to
study options for transit along the Route 1/301 corridor. He
stated in 2017, the county worked with the Virginia
Department of Rail and Public Transportation (DRPT) to
identify corridors of interest in the county and develop
objectives for the evaluation of transportation service
alternatives. He further stated DRPT provided spatial and
quantitative analysis of multiple corridors, looking at high
level demographic, traffic, and job-related data and
submitted that information to the county. He then reviewed an
evaluation of mobility options.
In response to Mr. Holland's question, Mr. Smith stated the
cost associated with access to GRTC along the Jeff Davis
Corridor would be $1.2 million annually.
Discussion ensued relative to citizen accessibility and
walkability to designated GRTC bus stops as well as the
limits of the corridor extended approximately 7.5 miles from
the Chesterfield County/City of Richmond boundary to Iron
Bridge Road.
Mr. Smith continued his presentation by reviewing the
mobility option of Virginia Regional Transit. He stated the
transit provider offers a deviated fixed -route service in
several localities across the state. He further stated VRT
estimates their deviated fixed -route service would cost
around $600,000 annually.
In response to Ms. Jaeckle's question, Mr. Smith stated VRT's
deviated fixed -route service is an acceptable alternative to
providing complimentary paratransit service.
Mr. Smith continued his presentation by stating the corridor
contains the necessary characteristics to support investment
in mobility services; the Transit Network Company market is
continuing to pilot many different services and business
models in search of the right approach; public transportation
providers are the best option available to access significant
federal and state funding to support capital and operating
costs; and gaps in market data should be addressed to right -
size services. He then highlighted possible next steps which
include conducting a market assessment survey to right -size
potential service; work with VDRPT to evaluate potential
funding options and gauge support; conduct public and
stakeholder outreach with the community; select a service
option and refine based on market survey and public outreach,
work with service providers to develop detailed cost
estimates that will support applications for federal, state,
and local funding; and once funding is secured, receive
approval to advance with procuring services and entering into
agreements with service providers as necessary. He then
reviewed past efforts and lessons learned. In closing, he
highlighted alternative transportation efforts and pedestrian
infrastructure projects.

In response to Mr. Winslow and Ms. Haley's questions, Mr.
Smith stated if Chesterfield decides to continue moving
forward the discussion of implementing mobility options, a
market assessment survey would need to be conducted to
capture more specific data for the corridor and evaluate
potential funding options to gauge support for federal and/or
state funding.
Mr. Elswick recommended having a transit consultant study bus
transit along Jeff Davis Highway and report back to the Board
with its findings.
Ms. Jaeckle concurred with Mr. Elswick's recommendation.
Dr. Casey noted informal surveys have been conducted by
various communities along the corridor. He stated measures
will need to be designed for interim to permanent steps. He
noted significant ridership would be deemed an effective
system.

16. PUBLIC HEARINGS
16.A. TO CONSIDER AN APPLICATION FOR SOLID WASTE MANAGEMENT
FACILITY SITING APPROVAL FILED BY SKINQUARTER LAND,
LLC FOR SITING OF A CONSTRUCTION, DEMOLITION, AND
DEBRIS LANDFILL
Mr. Bowles stated this date
the Board to consider a
management facility siting
Land, LLC for siting of
debris landfill. He further
applied for solid waste mar
and time has been advertised for
application for solid waste
approval filed by Skinquarter
L construction, demolition, and
stated Skinquarter Land, LLC has
agement facility siting approval
18-667
09/26/18
It
D
for a construction, demolition, and debris ("CDD") landfill.
He stated in 1988, a previous Board of Supervisors approved
conditional use zoning at the property for a CDD landfill in
an Agricultural (A) district. In 2004, a previous Board of
Supervisors approved (1) a conditional use to permit material
recycling operations at the site; and (2) amendments to the
existing conditional use. He stated in 2007, the entire
property was rezoned at the request of the owner. He further
stated the 2007 zoning approval rezoned the property to
Agricultural (A) on 55 acres with conditional zoning to
permit the CDD landfill and the material recycling operation
on the existing property and on an additional 56.4 acres
adjacent to the existing operation. He stated the 2007
rezoning triggered the requirement for siting approval as
outlined in County Code Chapter 11, Article VII. He further
stated Skinquarter Land, LLC submitted an Article VII
application on July 12, 2018. He stated staff has reviewed
Skinquarter's application and engaged the services of the
engineering firm of Golder Associates, Inc. to perform an
expert technical review of the application. He noted staff
concurs with the findings of the review completed by Golder.
He stated approval of the application is governed by Section
11-75 of the County Code, which stipulates that the Board of
Supervisors shall not grant approval for the siting of a
solid waste management facility unless the Board has
determined that: (a) the proposed facility poses no
substantial present or potential danger to the health, safety
or welfare of any person; and (b) the proposed facility poses
no substantial present or potential danger to the
environment. He then highlighted the facility and operations
overview by stating the wood processing/grinding facility
would continue these operations; the facility has a designed
volume of 6 cells with an estimated life of 21 years; a
maximum of 5,500 tons per day is allowed, with an anticipated
activity of 500-1,500 tons per day; the maximum height of the
landfill cells is approximately 220 feet above the existing
grade; the facility will operate 312 days per years, with
operating hours Monday -Saturday during daylight hours; and
approximately 60-80 additional trucks will visit the site
daily. He then reviewed allowable wastes which shall be
limited to stumps, wood, brush and leaves from land clearing
operations; lumber, wire, sheetrock, brick, shingles, glass,
pipe, concrete, metal, plastics or any empty containers of
such materials from construction sites; waste from the
demolition of buildings and structures and their foundations,
including construction waste; and inert waste to include
concrete, broken brick, brick, blocks and rubble. He noted
any waste on the list is not permitted; any modifications or
additions would have to be approved by the Board of
Supervisors through a zoning action; and any proposed change
of use for the property or surrounding properties requires
Board of Supervisors approval. He then reviewed ongoing
compliance monitoring which include the operation of DEQ -
required gas and groundwater monitoring well networks; site
access limited to vehicles hauling authorized materials for
disposal; approximately 5 percent of incoming loads will be
inspected during tipping to identify possible unauthorized
waste; daily inspection of access road conditions; weekly
inspections of safety equipment, erosion and sediment control
structures, cover conditions, and site monitoring devices; if
odors are detected, an odor control plan will be submitted
for DEQ within 30 days; weekly inspection and collection of
18-668
09/26/18
blown litter along facility entrance and areas to east and
west of facility along Hull Street; litter inspections
following any significant wind event; and water truck on-site
to spray regularly to minimize blowing dust. He stated the
county will conduct semi-annual inspections by the Planning
Department verifying compliance with zoning conditions and
the DEQ will conduct semi-annual inspections by DEQ verifying
compliance with the permit. He noted all post -closure
monitoring and financial assurances are the responsibility of
the facility operator and the facility must comply with DEQ
post -closure financial assurance requirements prior to
commencing operations. He further stated pursuant to County
Code Section 11-76, the Board must hold a public hearing
concerning the approval or disapproval of the siting of the
proposed solid waste management facility. In closing, he
stated staff recommends, considering Golder's technical
review and the County staff's review, that the Board grant
approval of the application because, in staff's opinion, the
Board can reasonably make the determinations set out in
Section 11-75.
In response to Ms. Haley's request, Mr. Mincks stated the use
of the property has already been decided in zoning that
occurred in a rezoning in 2007. He further stated the Board
is to determine that the proposed facility poses no
substantial present or potential danger to the health, safety
or welfare of any person and the proposed facility poses no
substantial present or potential danger to the environment.
Ms. Andrea Wortzel, representing the applicant, stated the
Skinquarter Landfill is a construction, demolition and debris
landfill. She further stated the landfill receives material
from construction and demolition sites and includes inert
materials such as bricks, lumber, glass, concrete and debris
from land -clearing operations. She stated the CDD disposal
area is 52 acres and there is a 100 -foot buffer surrounding
the approved uses. She further stated Skinquarter is zoned
for use as a CDD landfill by Chesterfield County since 1988;
permitted by DEQ; incorporated into the Central Virginia
Waste Management Plan; the site plan was approved, and a land
disturbance permit was issued by the county; and construction
and operation are subject to regular inspections by DEQ and
county staff. She stated Skinquarter is not a Municipal Solid
Waste facility; cannot accept coal ash; and cannot accept
auto fluff/auto shredder residue. Regarding the standard for
approval, she stated the proposed facility poses no
substantial present or potential danger to the health, safety
or welfare of any person; and the proposed facility poses no
substantial present or potential danger to the environment.
Regarding the question of traffic, she stated a required turn
lane and entrance design have been approved and constructed
and reviewed during DEQ permitting process. She noted VDOT
concluded no study was needed due to minimal impacts.
Regarding the question of odor, she stated the operation will
not reprocess sheetrock and odor is much less of an issue
with CDD landfills. Regarding financial assurance, she stated
the surety bond is to be provided by a third party; will be
issued before any waste is received; is calculated to ensure
sufficient funds to meet closure and post -closure care costs,
in addition to other required bonds for erosion and sediment
control/and disturbance. In closing, she stated the applicant
is requesting that the Board approve the Article VII
application, consistent" with the conclusion of the Golder
review and county staff recommendation.

In response to Mr. Winslow's questions, Ms. Wortzel stated
the landfill will not take any friable and/or non -friable
asbestos waste. She further stated the landfill drains in the
Sacagawea Creek and the leachate should be collected and sent
to the Chesterfield County Wastewater Treatment Plant. She
stated there will be no opportunity for evaluated
temperatures at the landfill.
In response to Mr. Holland's question, Ms. Wortzel stated
Skinquarter has trained staff on site that will be monitoring
any possible odors associated with the landfill and measures
will be enacted to address those issues.
In response to Mr. Winslow's question, Mr. Mincks stated the
issue before the Board is the operation of the landfill and
whether it poses a threat to any person and/or the
environment.
Ms. Jaeckle called for public comment.
Mr. Steve Beaudoux expressed concerns relative to large
trucks traveling along Hull Street in the fastest-growing
part of the county. He urged the Board to deny siting
approval for the landfill.
Mr. Mike Uzel, Bermuda District resident, expressed concerns
relative to leachate collection system monitoring,
groundwater monitoring, settlement, and erosion issues. He
stated there are too many unanswered questions and
unacceptable allowances to move forward on the proposal.
Ms. Jessica Anderson, Dale District resident, urged the Board
to deny siting approval for the landfill and expressed
concerns relative to the proximity of the landfill to Grange
Hall Elementary School.
Mr. Greg Sagstetter, Matoaca District resident, expressed
concerns relative to the landfill's proximity to Grange Hall
Elementary School. He stated children will be playing 5,000
feet away on a playground with blowing dust from industrial
waste from the northeast that has been deposited in 220 -foot -
tall piles. He urged the Board to deny or defer the
application to ensure the safety and welfare of county
residents.
Ms. Heather Neace urged the Board to deny or defer the siting
approval and expressed concerns relative to an increase of
truck traffic on Hull Street bringing in construction
demolition debris from out of state, and the effect of the
landfill on the environment.
Mr. Bob Olsen opposed the landfill bringing in construction
demolition debris from out of state. He stated Skinquarter
Land is now owned by a New York -based private equity firm and
expressed concerns relative to an increase of truck traffic
on Hull Street.
Mr. Irvin Horner, Matoaca District resident, voiced his
support of the application filed by Skinquarter, LLC and
urged the Board to approve the request.
Mr. Walter Moore, Matoaca District resident, voiced his
opposition of the siting approval and expressed concerns with
the application and proposed a separate performance bond for
the county to cover the cost of cleanup, new water supplies,
etc. to be paid to the county.
18-670
09/26/18
Mr. Tom Watson, Bermuda District resident, urged the Board to
deny the application filed by Skinquarter Land, LLC and
compared the issues of increased truck traffic and
environmental nuisances associated with Shoosmith landfill to
the proposal.
Mr. Bill Woodfin, Mataoca District resident, stated the
location is not appropriate for a landfill and has been
controversial since its inception. He expressed concerns
relative to advertisement of the public hearing, an increase
of truck traffic bringing in out of state waste, ground water
quality and proposed a separate performance bond for the
county to cover the cost of cleanup, new water supplies, etc.
to be paid to the county.
Mr. Phil Lohr expressed concerns relative to industrial waste
next to an elementary school and increased truck traffic on
Hull Street and Route 288. He requested that the Board deny
the application for siting approval.
Ms. Victoria Ronoe, Powhatan County resident, compared the
current proposal to the recently approved landfill in
Cumberland County, and urged the Board to listen to the audio
associated with the public meeting. She expressed concerns
relative to an increase in truck traffic and limitations on
waste capacity.
Mr. William Shewmake, Midlothian District resident, stated he
represented the previous owner of the landfill. He noted the
proposal is not a zoning case, but rather a technical review.
He further stated the consultant has thoroughly reviewed the
request and recommended approval and noted the differences
between the Shoosmith and Skinquarter landfill applications.
Mr. Bill Stinson, organizer of Skinquarter Land, LLC, stated
Chesterfield County has been one of his largest customers.
He further stated the county asked him to go to this location
and set up a stump dump in 2003 after the hurricane. He
respectively requested the Board's approval of the request.
There being no one else to speak to the issue, the public
hearing was closed.
Mr. Mike Williams, Senior Principal of Golder and Associates,
stated based on the review of the proposed facility design
and operation as outlined in the application, including site
geology, design documents, and proposed monitoring plans, he
does not believe that the proposed landfill will pose a
substantial present or potential danger to the health, safety
or welfare of any person or the environment.
In response to Ms. Haley's questions, Mr. Williams stated
there is a huge difference in the types of waste allowed at a
Municipal Solid Waste landfill versus a Construction,
Demolition and Debris landfill, which is largely comprised of
inert waste. He further stated the Skinquarter landfill has a
leachate liner collection system which will be pumped and
hauled to the county wastewater facility for treatment. He
noted there is always a possibility of a small leak; however,
teams will constantly monitor the groundwater to ensure there
are no issues.
In response to Mr. Winslow's question, Mr. Williams stated
gypsum is a common construction and demolition debris and it
poses no concern. He further stated odor would be the only
issue with gypsum.

In response to Mr. Winslow's questions, Mr. Williams stated
he is not aware of any difference of glass, brick, rubble, or
drywall materials based on the state those materials are
manufactured. He further stated the facility is specifically
precluded from receiving industrial waste.
Mr. Mincks stated the landfill would have to be rezoned to
receive industrial waste.
In response to Mr. Winslow's questions, Mr. Williams stated
the bond associated with financial assurance was reviewed and
determined the proposed amount is adequate. He further stated
he signed the letter sent on behalf of Golder recommending
approval of the application on September 5, 2018.
In response to Mr. Holland's questions, Mr. Williams stated
substantial testing is conducted when manufacturing liner
material and generally when liners fail it is because of a
leak in the liner weld. He further stated it would be very
unusual to see a significant liner failure. He stated dust
control can be important; however, the facility has an
operation plan required to control dust.
In response to Mr. Elswick's question, Mr. Williams stated a
potential liner leak will probably consist of low
concentrations of metals and the facility will have ample
time to put corrective measures in place to prevent any
danger based on the site buffer.
In response to Mr. Elswick's question, Mr. Mincks stated the
only way a condition can be imposed is if the Board is
satisfied that without a permanent inspector there is a
substantial danger to the health, safety and welfare of the
environment or any person, that without that inspector, that
danger exists. He further stated there is an inspection
program that is part of that permitting process.
Mr. Williams stated he is not sure the county can require the
applicant to hire an inspector or not. He further stated the
Department of Environmental Quality will typically inspect an
active landfill every quarter. He noted the number of
inspections can increase based on complaints, concerns, etc.
In response to Mr. Elswick's questions, Ms. Wortzel stated
the landfill will not be accepting fly ash as waste or using
it as cover. She further stated hours of operation are 7:00
a.m. - 4:00 p.m., Monday through Friday, and 7:00 a.m. -
12:00 p.m. on Saturday.
Mr. Elswick stated if this landfill was zoned today knowing
what we know, he does not think the Board would be zoning it.
He further stated the challenge is determining if the Board
can decide that there is no hazard or danger to the
environment or any person. He inquired whether all answers
were given to decide, or should the Board defer consideration
for 30 days to address any unresolved issues.
Ms. Haley stated she is comfortable responding to Mr.
Elswick's question. She further stated the Board would be
looking at the consideration differently if it were a zoning
case. She stated by taking the application of the ordinance
and applying it, it is also the protection to the county.
She further stated the Board cannot take an action that
leaves the county in a vulnerable, financial position because
of what the Board might have done if the proposal were a
zoning case. She stated the Board does not have the
discretion if it were a zoning case, but a strict application
of the ordinance, as well as an engineering report addressing
the two specific aspects of the ordinance. She further stated
18-672
09/26/18
she feels comfortable in deciding because all the answers
related to the two provisions of the ordinance have been
answered.
Ms. Jaeckle concurred with Ms. Haley's remarks. She stated
all issues brought up by citizens are related to the zoning
case, but not the landfill application. She further stated
she does not feel a deferral is necessary. She stated she
sympathizes with the residents, but they are not the
questions before the Board tonight.
Mr. Holland stated he believes the Board can make a decision
tonight. He expressed concerns relative to the potential
danger the landfill could pose and the proximity of the
landfill to the elementary school. He questioned if enough
citizens were informed of the proposal and if they received
adequate information.
In response to Mr. Winslow's question, Mr. Gillies stated to
the best of his knowledge, this is the last rezoning of a
landfill that is currently being operated as a landfill. He
noted a landfill on Taylor Road and the Dominion Power site
are the only others in addition to the Shoosmith site. He
further stated Grange Hall Elementary School is about a mile
from the landfill.
In response to Mr. Winslow's question, Ms. Wortzel stated the
closest residence is approximately 1,000 feet away from the
landfill.
Ms. Jaeckle made a suggestion to include provisions in the
Comprehensive Plan relative to what is allowed in the
surrounding area of a landfill.
In response to Mr. Elswick's question, Mr. Mincks stated the
Board has 120 days from the submission of the completed
application to decide. He further stated if no decision is
made within 120 days of the completed application, the
application is deemed approved.
Mr. Elswick made a motion, seconded by Mr. Winslow, for the
Board to defer for 30 days consideration of the application
for solid waste management facility siting approval filed by
Skinquarter Land, LLC for siting of a construction,
demolition, and debris landfill. (It is noted approval of the
application is inclusive of the applicant's representative,
Ms. Andrea Wortzel's statement of assurance that the landfill
operator would not knowingly take any friable or non -friable
asbestos waste.)
Winslow: Aye.
Haley:
Nay.
Elswick:
Aye.
Holland:

The motion failed.
Ms. Haley made a substitute motion, seconded by Ms. Jaeckle,

16.B. TO CONSIDER AMENDING SECTION 5-7 OF THE COUNTY CODE
RELATING TO THE AUTHORITY TO TARE CORRECTIVE ACTION
AGAINST STRUCTURES HARBORING ILLEGAL DRUG USE OR BAWDY
PLACES
Mr. Mincks stated this date and time has been advertised for
the Board to consider amending Section 5-7 of the County Code
relating to the authority to take corrective action against
structures harboring illegal drug use or bawdy places. He
further stated the 2018 General Assembly amended the state
law that allows local governments to take corrective action
against real property where blight due to criminal activity
exists. He stated state law previously provided that
localities can adopt ordinances to compel the repair or
removal of structures harboring illegal drug activity (so-
called "drug blight"). He further stated the 2018 legislation
broadened the concept of drug blight to include real property
harboring "criminal blight." He stated criminal blight
includes not only illegal drug crimes, but also sex and
firearms crimes occurring on real property. He further stated
the ordinance is implemented by the chief of police and the
building and fire officials and serves as a tool for the
County's community enhancement efforts.
In response to Ms. Haley's question, Mr. Mincks stated a
bawdy place is a place where there is illicit or illegal
activity, usually in a sexual nature.
In response to Mr. Winslow's question, Mr. Mincks stated
criminal blight refers to places where there is frequent
discharge of a firearm within a dwelling. He further stated
the ordinance has been broadened to include illegal drug
activity, illegal sexual -related activity and the malicious
discharge of firearms within a dwelling.
Ms. Jaeckle called for public comment.
There being no one to speak to the issue, the public hearing
was closed.
On motion of Ms. Haley, seconded by Mr. Winslow, the Board
adopted the following ordinance:

service or the United States Postal Service,
except that regular mail shall suffice for
bawdy places, to the last address listed for
the owner on the county's real estate
assessment records for the property, together
with a copy of the chief of police's
affidavit, notifying the owner that (i) the
owner must take corrective action to abate the
criminal blight or bawdy place within 30 days
after the date of the notice and (ii) if the
owner requests the county to do so, the county
will assist the owner in determining and
coordinating the appropriate corrective action
to abate the criminal blight or bawdy place
described in the affidavit,. For criminal
blight, if the owner notifies the building
official in writing within the 30 -day period
that additional time to complete the
corrective action is needed, the building
official shall allow the owner an extension
for an additional 30 -day period to take
corrective action.
(3) If no corrective action is undertaken pursuant
to subsection (b)(2), the building official
shall send a second notice by certified mail,
return receipt requested for criminal blight,
or by regular mail for bawdy places, to the
owner of the property at the same address to
which the first notice was sent. The second
notice shall notify—the property owner that,
on a specific date that is no less than 15
days after the date that the second notice is
mailed, (i) the building official may commence
corrective action to abate the criminal blight
or bawdy place on the property or (ii) the
building official may commence legal action in
a court of competent jurisdiction to obtain a
court order to require that the owner take
corrective action or a court order to revoke
the certificate of occupancy for the property.
The second notice shall also reasonably
describe the corrective action that the
building official is contemplating. After the
owner has received the second notice, the
owner shall have a right, after providing
reasonable notice to the building official, to
petition a court of competent jurisdiction for
judicial relief from the provisions of this
section. The building official shall not take
corrective action while such a petition for
relief is pending before a court of competent
jurisdiction.
(c) If the building official takes corrective action
with respect to the property after complying with the
provisions of subsection (b), the costs and expenses of the
corrective action shall be charged to and paid by the owner
of the property and may be collected in the same manner as
taxes and levies.
(d) Every charge authorized by this section with which
the owner of property has been assessed shall constitute a
18-676
09/26/18
lien against the property. The lien shall have the same
priority as a lien for unpaid local taxes and shall be
enforceable in the same manner as provided in Code of
Virginia, § 58.1-3940 et seq., and Code of Virginia, § 58.1-
3965 et seq.
(e) A criminal blight proceeding pursuant to this
section shall be a civil proceeding in a court of competent
jurisdiction.
(f) If the owner takes timely corrective action
pursuant to subsection (b) the building official shall (i)
deem the criminal blight or bawdy place abated; (ii) cease
any proceeding without any charge or cost to the owner; and
(iii) promptly send written notice to the owner by regular
mail that the proceeding has been terminated satisfactorily.
If the criminal blight or bawdy place recurs, the building
official shall not be barred from initiating a subsequent
proceeding.
(g) Nothing in this section, as it relates to criminal
blight, shall be construed to abridge, diminish, limit, or
waive any rights or remedies of the owner at law or any
permits or nonconforming rights the owner may have under Code
of Virginia § 15.2-2200 et seq. If the owner in good faith
takes corrective action, and despite having taken such
action, the specific criminal blight identified in the chief
of police's affidavit persists, the owner shall be deemed in
compliance with this section. Further, if a tenant in a
rental dwelling unit, or a tenant on a manufactured home lot,
is the cause of criminal blight on such property and the
owner in good faith initiates legal action and pursues the
same by requesting a final order by a court of competent
jurisdiction, as otherwise authorized by the Code of
Virginia, against such tenant to remedy such noncompliance or
to terminate the tenancy, the owner shall be deemed in
compliance with this section.
(h) Nothing in this section, as it relates to bawdy
places, shall be construed to abridge or waive any rights or
remedies of an owner at law or in equity.
(2) That this ordinance shall become effective immediately
upon adoption.
Ayes: Jaeckle, Haley, Winslow, Holland and Elswick.

fundraisers, and festivals, the individual site -by -site
