make themselves available to meet with prospective
businesses in support of the County's economic development
efforts.
Mr. Ramsey stated that, at the June, 1999 meeting, the
Board requested that a committee to evaluate the County's
tax structure be explored. He further stated that
establishment of the committee will be recommended to the
Board in January, 2000.
Mr. Ramsey stated that Mr. McHale requested that the
County explore the areas in which extensive and criminal
background investigations are being performed for
employees and volunteer organizations that serve County
citizens and the potential for expanding background checks
to all employees or volunteers who would be working
directly with children or youth in the community. He
further stated that efforts being made include performing
criminal backgrounds for positions mandated by State Code;
determining the positions that would meet the criteria of
working with youth or children; and discussing with the
Parks and Recreation Advisory Commission ways to insure
that volunteers within positions in their organizations do
not have problem backgrounds. He reviewed resources
available to assist in background investigations and
stated that, currently, the plan is to continue criminal
background checks, where mandated, and expand background
checks on other positions using the resources that are
legally applicable. He further stated that the plan
should be finalized by October, 1999. He stated that the
Police Department has developed a brochure relative to
volunteer organizations protecting themselves in the
operation of their organizations.
Mr. Daniel requested that Mr. Ramsey present facts and
data at the October 13, 1999 meeting relative to expansion
of background investigations and suggested that, due to
the extensiveness of the issue, the meeting begin at 3:00
p.m.
Mr. McHale stated that an incident involving a recreation
association volunteer prompted the issue of expanding
background checks. He further stated that this was a
major setback for the organization involved and that the

people.
There was brief discussion relative to the number and type
of volunteer organizations within the County that could be

Mr. Kappel introduced Dr. Eugene Trani, President of Virginia
Commonwealth University (VCU), to brief the Board on activities
and projects at the University.
Dr. Trani stated that there are nearly 2,500 students in the
freshman class at VCU, 350 of which are Chesterfield County
high school graduates. He further stated that Medical College
of Virginia (MCV) Hospitals was again recognized as one of the
top fifty hospitals in the nation by U.S. News and World Report
in neurology and neurosurgery, orthopedics, digestive
disorders, and respiratory disorders. He stated that, on
September 15, 1999, the final totals will be announced in the
Partners for Progress Campaign. He reviewed new facilities
planned for construction and currently under construction at
VCU. He requested the Board's consideration of a resolution
supporting VCU/MCV's top legislative priority for the General
Assembly's 2000 session -- full funding for indigent care at
MCV Hospitals. He stated that MCV Hospitals provides $100
million per year in indigent care, which represents one-third
of the indigent care in the State, and that MCV receives less
than $70 million in compensation. He further stated that, due
to changes in managed care, cost shifting of the shortfall is
no longer possible. He reviewed efforts that have been made
during the 1990's towards the operation of the clinical-care
mission and the measures that have been taken due to the
challenges presented. He stated that the American Association
of Medical Colleges is predicting that over one-third of all
academic health centers will be operating in the red by the
year 2002. He further stated that MCV needs full commitment by
the State of the $100 million in indigent care costs and noted
that $6.1 million in indigent care costs goes to County
residents who receive free medical care by MCV physicians and
hospitals. He stated that the recipients of indigent care
consist mainly of people who work in jobs that do not provide
health benefits and do not qualify for Medicaid. He referenced
the thirty-six living donor liver transplantations that have
taken place at MCV Hospitals and stated that they will not
continue to happen at MCV if the State does not step up to the
commitment they made thirty years ago for funding indigent care
at the academic medical centers at the University of Virginia
and Virginia Commonwealth University. He further stated that,
without full funding of indigent care, MCV Hospitals will be in
serious trouble in the delivery of health care and training of
people in health professions.
Mr. Daniel expressed appreciation to Dr. Trani for his
informative presentation and stated that he would support the
resolution. He further stated that he feels the Board will do
its part to bring this issue to the forefront of its
legislative agenda.
9/8/99
99-758
Mr. Barber stated that he feels VCU has become an outstanding
institution under the leadership of Dr. Trani. He further
stated that he would support the resolution requesting full
funding of indigent care.

17. REMAINING MOBILE HOME PERMITS AND ZONING REQUESTS
99SN0274
In Clover Hill Magisterial District, HOLIDAY SIGNS, INC.
requested Conditional Use and amendment of zoning district map
to permit a computer-controlled, variable message, electronic
sign. The density of such amendment will be controlled by
zoning conditions or Ordinance standards. The Comprehensive
Plan suggests the property is appropriate for community mixed
use. This request lies in a General Business (C-5) District on
.6 acre known as 7607 Midlothian Turnpike. Tax ID 762-706-0354
(Sheet 7).
Ms. Beverly Rogers presented a summary of Case 99SN0274 and
stated that the existing sign is non-conforming due to the
current ordinance limiting the sign to an area of 62.5 square
feet to include a reader board. She further stated that the
applicant is proposing to remove an existing manual reader
board located on the property and replace it with a computer
controlled reader board. She stated that a policy was adopted
by the Board relative to guidelines for evaluation of the
appropriate location for electronic message signs. She further
stated that staff recommends approval of the request due to the
proposal conforming to the Board's policy. She stated that
Planning Commission also has a policy on electronic message
signs and that the request does not conform to the Commission's
policy, which differs from the Board's policy. She further
stated that the Planning Commission recommended denial of the
request due to nonconformance with their policy as well as, in
their opinion, nonconformance with the County's desire to bring
existing signs into conformance with the existing sign
ordinance. She stated that there was some indication by
several members of the Planning Commission that, if the request
had included a proposal to bring the sign into closer
conformance with today's zoning ordinance relative to sign and
height, they may have been more receptive for an electronic
message board at the proposed location.
Mr. Barber expressed concerns relative to the
Commission and the Board of Supervisors having
policies relative to electronic message signs.
Planning
differing
There was brief discussion relative to the Board's electronic
message sign policy being the County's ultimate policy.
Mr. Jacobson stated that staff brought back to the Planning
Commission the Board's decision relative to electronic message
signs and that the Planning Commission chose to use their own
policy in their recommendations to the Board. He further
stated that staff bases their recommendations on the Board's
policy.
Mr. Barber stated that the Board refers to the Planning
Commission and staff recommendations when making decisions on
zoning requests and expressed concerns relative to how an
applicant can understand what standards apply when there are
conflicting policies.
99-778 9/8/99
There was brief discussion relative to the Planning Commission
having a more restrictive policy than the Board.
Mr. Daniel stated that the message is clear that there should
be only one policy as to how a process is carried out.
When asked, Ms. Rogers stated that the request meets the
Board's policy relative to electronic message signs.
Mr. Daniel stated that he cannot support the request as
proposed and stressed the importance of a resolution of the
differing policies as soon as possible.
Mr. Alan Thweatt, representing the applicant, stated that the
existing sign has been in place for approximately twenty-five
years. He further stated that he would like to see one County
policy relative to electronic message boards. He stated that
the request is to reface a legal, nonconforming sign and
exercise what is available within the County's ordinance. He
requested the Board's support of staff's recommendation.
Ms. Karen Allen, owner of Southern Gun World, requested the
Board's support of the proposed request.
Mr. John Easter stated that he was a representative on the
Planning Commission when the issue of an electronic message
sign policy was discussed. He further stated that, before the
issue was brought to the Board, there was a substantial
difference in opinion among the Planning Commissioners as to a
policy for handling the message signs and stated that the
Planning Commission's recommendation was actually a compromise
position. He stated that, after the Board adopted its policy,
there was disagreement among Planning Commission members
relative to the policy and that, as a member of the Planning
Commission, he suggested that there be one policy, but the
majority of the Planning Commission decided to maintain a
separate policy.
There being no one else to speak to the Case, the public
hearing was closed.
Mr. Warren expressed concerns relative to policy decisions that
need to be reviewed. He stated that he feels the sign is
nonconforming and the size would not comply with current sign
sizing requirements.
Mr. Warren then made a motion to remand Case 99SN0274 to the
Planning Commission for further review of the policies that
currently exist.
Mr. Daniel clarified the motion made by Mr. Warren for Case
99SN0274 to be remanded to the Planning Commission for review
of the current policies as they relate to the proposed request.
99-779 9/8/99
There was brief discussion relative to the Planning Commission
being open to any discussion relative to the policy and to
making a recommendation to the Board.
Mr. Warren suggested that each Board member speak with the
Planning Commissioner from their district in an effort to
understand the intent of their recommendation.
Mr. Daniel stated that the Planning Commission will have to
recommend a policy prior to reviewing the proposed request.
Mr. Daniel seconded the motion.
Mr. McHale stated that he feels any inconsistency in policies
needs to be corrected and that he will support Mr. Warren's
motion. He further stated that, once the Board has considered
policy recommendations by the Planning Commission, and then
adopted their own policy, he feels it should be considered the
County policy.
Mrs. Humphrey stated that she concurs with Mr. McHale's
comments and expressed concerns relative to the difference in
policies. She further stated that she supports Mr. Warren's
motion.
Mr. Barber referenced another message board on Midlothian
Turnpike and stated that each case is different. He further
stated that he will support Mr. Warren's motion.
Mr. Daniel stated that ordinances are not to be deviated from
and policies are simply guidelines for making recommendations.
He further stated that, if the Planning Commission deviated
from ~the Board policy" in making their recommendation, they
are still operating within their legal framework. He stated
that he feels the Planning Commission, in their judgment,
presented the Board with the best possible recommendation and
the Board has now requested that the Commission review the
request again. He further stated that, should the Commission
make the same recommendation, he would like to see some of the
rationale for the decision.
Mr. Daniel then called for a vote on the motion made by Mr.
Warren, seconded by Mr. Daniel, for the Board to remand Case
99SN0274 to the Planning Commission for review of the current
policies as they relate to the proposed request.
Ayes: Daniel, Warren, Barber, Humphrey, and McHale.
Nays: None.
Mr. Daniel requested that Case 99SN0274 be advertised as soon
as possible in an effort to bring it to the Planning Commission
in a timely manner.
Before closing, Mr. Hammer stated that Mr. Stegmaier has
recently celebrated his twentieth anniversary of service to the
County.
99-780 9/8/99
Mr. Stegmaier stated that the twenty years with Chesterfield
County have been a great experience and that he is honored to
be a part of the local government which is the cutting edge
local government in the Country. He expressed appreciation for
the Board's decision eight years ago to move into quality
management in the County.
