6. WORK SESSIONS
o 2001 LEGISLATIVE PROGRAM
Ms. Curtin presented an overview of the Proposed 2001
Legislative Program. She reviewed recent issues including
significantly decreased State revenues for the first quarter of
the current fiscal yea~ and a proposed action by the Joint
Rules Committee that would limit the number of bills and
resolutions that individual members of the House and Senate can
introduce. She stated that, under this proposal, legislators
will have an unlimited ability to prefile bills by December 18,
2000; but after the General Assembly session has begun, House
members could be limited to introducing six bills and joint
resolutions and Senate members limited to ten. She reviewed
Legislative Priorities including protecting existing revenue
sources and taxing authority; providing additional State
funding for Comprehensive Services Act shortfalls; amendments
to the County Charter to allow the Budget Director and County
Administrator to receive certain tax information from the
Commissioner of Revenue and to reflect recodification of Title
15.1 to 15.2; providing additional State funding for operation
of Drug Court; and expanding misdemeanor exceptions for which
a juvenile may be taken into custody.
Mr. Miller expressed concerns relative to the request to expand
misdemeanor exceptions for juveniles vandalizing property on
zo/25/oo
00-682
commercial grounds and questioned the reason this could not
also apply to residential property.
Lieutenant Colonel McDonald stated that the intent of the
legislative priority is to merge the Juvenile Code and the
Criminal Adult Code and that, in order to add vandalism of
residential property to the misdemeanor offense exception for
which a juvenile may be taken into custody, it would also be
necessary to change the Criminal Adult Code to reflect the
same.
Mr. Miller requested that staff explore the possibility of
adding vandalism of residential property to the misdemeanor
offense exception for which both adults and juveniles may be
taken into custody.
Ms. Curtin continued to review Legislative Priorities including
opposing any new mandated benefits.
There was brief discussion relative to the carry-over bills
from the last General Assembly session.
Ms. Curtin then reviewed Legislative Requests including the
tolls issue and stated that, after the Joint Legislative Audit
Review Commission (JLARC) releases its recommendations December
11, 2000 from their study of the use of tolls, the Board may
want to take either a support or oppose position.
Mr. Warren stated that the Board will be meeting with the
legislative delegation on November 8, 2000 and requested that
Board members express their concerns prior to that meeting so
that changes can be made to the proposed Legislative Program
before presenting it to the legislative delegation.
Mrs. Humphrey requested that the Board members be provided a
list and brief description of the bills that are still
remaining to be acted upon from the previous General Assembly
session.
Mr. Barber requested that the delegation be questioned about
items that the County may be unaware of that might have an
impact on the County.
Ms. Curtin continued to review Legislative Requests including
creating a State certification program for construction site
operators for implementation of erosion and sediment control
plans and allowing the Health Department to charge an
application fee for restaurant permits and annual renewals.
When asked, Ms. Curtin stated that the application fee for
restaurant permits would be approximately $100.
Mr. Miller expressed concerns relative to adding an additional
burden on restaurant owners and stated that he is not
comfortable with this legislative request.
Mr. Warren stated that, based on suggestions from the
legislative delegation, requests can be eliminated from the
County's Legislative Program.
Mr. Hammer stated that the State Health Department has suffered
numerous budget cuts for the past three years. He further
stated that the application fee would assist in providing
personnel to train individual restaurants on health related
00-683
issues and indicated that the legislative request would not go
forward without restaurant industry support.
Ms. Curtin continued to review Legislative Requests including
providing that any proceeding before the Board of Zoning
Appeals would be stayed in the event there is a pending
criminal proceeding on the same matter; reinstating
requirements in the claims procedure that any appeal of the
denial of a claim against a County must be filed in the Circuit
Court of the County being sued; allowing localities the
discretion not to require finger printing for concealed weapons
permit applicants on subsequent applications by a permit
holder; amending the State Code to clarify the maximum fine a
locality may charge for an uncontested parking violation; and
granting summons authority to zoning inspectors.
Mr. Miller expressed concerns relative to the legislative
request to grant summons authority to zoning inspectors and
stated that he is not comfortable with the request.
Mr. Barber stated that he feels granting summons authority to
zoning inspectors would provide the opportunity to streamline
the process for correcting zoning violations.
Mr. Warren stated that he has had numerous complaints relative
to the inefficiency of the process for correcting zoning
violations.
Mr. McHale stated that he feels the County's zoning inspectors
are highly trained, skilled professionals. He further stated
that he feels granting summons authority to zoning inspectors
would assist the County's communities.
Mr. Miller stated that he feels
conservative in its approach to
authority.
the County should be
enlarging the summons
Ms. Curtin reviewed State Budget Requests including
continuation of State funding for the new van service;
continuation of House Bill 599 (aid to localities with Police
Departments) funding; fully funding staffing standards for
Constitutional Officers; and funding Court Services Unit
positions. She then reviewed Support Requests including
legislative requests of the High Growth Coalition; equal taxing
authorities for counties; State returning a portion of income
tax revenues to localities; expansion of open space
preservation initiatives; State budget requests of Virginia
League of Social Services Executives and Community Services
Boards; State budget requests of the Henricus Foundation; and
Statewide Emergency Management Association proposal for
mandatory tornado drills in schools, upgrade of the State
Emergency Operations Center, and a statewide ban on open
burning.
Mr. Miller expressed concerns relative to supporting the
Statewide ban on open burning.
Ms. Curtin continued to review Support Requests including
enforcement of the primary seatbelt law to promote citizen
safety; legislation to provide equitable State funding support
for existing regional and independent criminal justice training
academies; requiring the Compensation Board to fund additional
positions for Clerk of Circuit Court offices when new
judgeships are created; and the Metro Clerks Association
zo/2 /oo
00-684
position eliminating Compensation Board role in the use of
technology trust funds and removal of the sunset clause on this
statute.
Mrs. Humphrey requested that the word "fully" be added to the
request for requiring the Compensation Board to fund additional
positions for the Clerk of Circuit Court offices when new
judgeships are created.
Ms. Curtin reviewed the request to support increased State
funding for the State Workforce Services program.
There was brief discussion relative to the funding for the new
van service.
Mr. Barber stated that, as the van proposal was developed, he
was under the assumption that the funding for the new van
service was a new State appropriation. He further stated that
the funding for the van service partially came from the
Metropolitan Planning Organization (MPO). He stated that he
feels the County needs to emphasize that funding of the van
service should be a State appropriation rather than a shuffling
of funds.
Ms. Curtin reviewed Oppose Items including changes to the
Uniform Statewide Building Code which limit local authority in
zoning ordinances.
Mr. Miller requested that this issue be a priority request.
Ms. Curtin continued to review Oppose Items including new
mandates on local governments; expansion of overtime under the
Fair Labor Standards Act; State reductions in police grants;
changes to the local grievance procedure; "Meet and Confer"
legislation; and proposals to allow the Virginia Department of
Transportation (VDOT) to bypass local zoning in the siting of
telecommunications towers in VDOT rights of way.
Mrs. Humphrey requested that opposing the proposals to allow
VDOT to bypass local zoning in the siting of telecommunications
towers be added as a priority request.
Mr. Warren requested that staff poll each Board member before
November 8, 2000 relative to their requests for eliminations,
additions and changes in the priority of items in the County's
proposed 2001 Legislative Program.

of a pro-rata fee program whereby new development would pay for
the construction of new regional BMPs. She further stated that
the consultant recommended the use of a County-wide utility to
pay for the maintenance of all BMPs throughout the County as
well as stream restoration projects, major drainage
improvements and enhanced water quality protective efforts.
She stated that the third major element of the Plan listed
specific steps to implement the Plan, including at least two
ordinance changes as well as development of guidelines for
engineers for compliance with the Plan. She stated that staff
recommends that the Master Plan for siting and permitting of
regional BMPs be adopted by the Board; the consultant's
recommendation for the establishment of a pro-rata fee program
to cover the cost of construction of the facilities also be
adopted by the Board and anticipates that a public hearing to
consider the ordinance required to put the fee program in place
be held in January 2001; the Environmental Engineering
operating and capital improvement budgets be increased in order
to institute a County-wide maintenance program for residential
BMPs and for stream restoration projects. She further stated
that Environmental Engineering's operating budget would be
increased over a three year period up to $500,000, enabling
staff to hire the crew and equipment necessary to take over the
maintenance of all residential BMPs throughout the County. She
stated that the capital improvement program for Environmental
Engineering would be increased from $200,000 to $400,000 over
a four year period to enable staff to conduct major stream
restoration projects throughout the County with an initial
focus on the older portions of the County. She reviewed the
numerous meetings that have been held to receive input on the
Plan and stated that concerns were expressed with the high
wetland impact of the option of relying solely on wet ponds.
She stated that there is precedent for the use of alternative
BMPs throughout the Mid-Atlantic region and noted that the
alternative BMP option has worked well in other areas. She
further stated that staff has confidence in both the methods
and the overall approach that were used by the consultant in
developing the Plan.
When asked, Ms. Salvati stated that the State of Maryland is
making maximum use of riparian corridors. She further stated
that she is comfortable that the County's phosphorus goal will
be met and that potential impacts on wetlands will be greatly
reduced.
Mr. Miller expressed concerns relative to increasing
Environmental Engineering's operating and capital improvement
budgets.
Mr. Barber expressed concerns relative to the differing
recommendations by staff and the consultant for funding the BMP
maintenance program.
Mr. Ramsey stated that, as staff reviewed the consultant's
recommendation for funding the BMP maintenance program through
a County-wide utility fee, it was determined that the only
mechanism of collection would be to add the charge to the tax
bill each year. He further stated that staff did not feel the
net increase in funding necessary for the maintenance program
justified billing every household in the County.
Mr. Barber expressed concerns relative to the priority of
funding the BMP maintenance program when other services cannot
be funded.

Mr. Ramsey stated that he feels it would be

Ms. Laurie Newell, a resident of the Clover Hill District,
expressed appreciation to the Board and others who have
contributed to protection of the County's ~ater supply. She
stated that use of regional BMPs is the best approach to ensure
water quality as well as economic developmeilt. She urged the
Board to adopt the Watershed Management Plan and stated that
she also supports a pro-rata fee system to allow developers to
pay for construction of the regional BMPs. She stated that she
feels water quality is a County-wide issue which requires a
County-wide approach; therefore, the Couuty should assume
responsibility for maintaining the BMPs on regular basis.
Mr. Preston Cooper, a resident of Woodlake id member of Hands
Across the Lake, stated that he feels it ~ould be the most
effective approach for the County to provice funding for the
Maintenance Program for BMPs. He further st.~ted that he feels
the Watershed Management Plan, as presented Dy the consultant,
is capable of dealing with technical issues n an ongoing basis
and urged the Board to adopt it.
Mr. James Hall, a resident of Deer Run, stated that he supports
the Watershed Management Plan as it relates to regional BMPs.
He expressed concerns relative to the ne¢:essity to remove
debris on a regular basis from the pond adjacent to his
property and stated that he is willing to pai a monthly fee to
provide maintenance of existing BMPs.
Mr. Dean DeForest, Director of Facility De 'elopment for Bon
Secours Richmond Health System, read the fo]lowing letter for
the record from Mr. Peter Bernard, Chief Ex~cutive Officer of
Bon Secours Richmond Health System:
"Bon Secours Richmond, more specifically St Francis Medical
Center, publicly endorses the approval of Chesterfield County's
proposed regional watershed initiative, i.e , the development
of regional Best Management Practices (BMPs
Chesterfield County has a history of environmental stewardship,
as demonstrated in 1997 when an ordinance was passed to protect
the upper Swift Creek Reservoir District. This ordinance
reduced the level of acceptable phosphates to .22 pound per
acre per year as compared to the Commonwealth of Virginia's
acceptable level of .45 pounds.
The approval of the proposed regional BMt initiative will
enable Chesterfield County, in conjunction with the Corp of
Engineers and the Department of Environmental Quality (DEQ), to
control the quantity, size and quality of ail future BMPs.
The current policy requires developers tc build a BMP to
control storm water run off. These BMPs may ue large or small,
depending upon storm water calculations, ~nd in many cases
become unsightly, un-maintained mosquito incubators.
! o/25/oo
00-715
We are confident that all developers would welcome and support
the County's ownership, development and maintenance of regional
BMPs. The approval of this program would greatly benefit St.
Francis Medical Center by eliminating the requirement of two
BMPs consisting in approximately two acres. This would enable
St. Francis Medical Center to better utilize its property, in
ensuring convenient and easy access for its patients.
I hope you and your fellow Board members will continue your
history of environmental stewardship, and approve this very
important regional watershed program."
Mr. DeForest stated that he feels the economic development
value that regional BMPs would bring to the County would raise
the funding necessary to maintain the regional BMPs.
Mr. Tom Beatty, a resident of Deer Run, expressed concerns
relative to the necessity to control runoff and pollutants and
stated that he supports the Maintenance Program for regional
BMPs. He further stated that he feels property owners should
not have to be responsible for maintaining BMPs that benefit an
entire neighborhood and stated that he supports the County
funding the maintenance of regional BMPs.
Mr. Miller expressed concerns relative to residents purchasing
property located on BMPs without the knowledge of their
maintenance responsibility.
Ms. Belinda Rickets, representing the Woodlake Community
Association Board of Directors, stated that Woodlake supports
adoption of the Watershed Management Plan and County-wide BMP
Maintenance Program.
Ms. Felecia Johnson, a resident of Deer Run/Antler Ridge,
presented the Board with a copy of the October 10, 2000
Community Shopper depicting the pond located behind her
residence. She also presented the Board with photographs of
the pond and stated that the property owners are unable to
maintain the pond properly.
There was brief discussion relative to the possibility of Deer
Run Community Association assuming the responsibility for
maintenance of the BMP adjacent to Ms. Johnson's property.
Ms Johnson stated that the water quality of the pond in Deer
Run is adversely impacting nature and urged the Board to
support the Watershed Management Plan and Maintenance Program.
Mr. John Boyes, President of the North Oaks Homeowners
Association, stated that the Association is responsible for
maintaining the three BMPs in North Oaks. He further stated
that he feels it would be fiscally responsible for the County
to establish a stormwater utility fee to provide funding for
maintenance of BM?s.
Mr. Dwayne Garrett, a resident of Deer Run, invited the Board
members to view the pond in Deer Run and stated that he feels
the County should adhere to its motto, "Keep Chesterfield
Clean."
Mr. Julio Del Corso, a resident of Greenfield Subdivision in
Midlothian District, stated that he supports a County-wide
stormwater utility fee to protect the County's drinking water.

There being no one else present to speak to the issue, the
public hearing was closed.
When asked, approximately sixty persons present at the meeting
stood in support of the Watershed Management Plan and
Maintenance Program.
Mr. Warren requested a five minute recess.
Reconvening:
It was generally agreed that the Board consider the three
components of the Watershed Management Plan and Maintenance
Program separately, the first of which is the siting,
construction and permitting of BMPs in the Swift Creek
Reservoir as recommended by the CH2M Hill, and the second of
which is the establishment of a pro-rata fee program for the
construction of regional BMPs.
Mr. Barber questioned how much of the Plan is absolutely
necessary for maintaining drinking quality, how much is related
to environmental concerns, and how much is directly related to
the amenity of the reservoir?
Ms. Salvati stated that the establishment of the .05 level of
acceptable phosphates was done as a means of minimizing the
level of eutrophy (biological productivity) in the reservoir.
She further stated that if the Swift Creek Reservoir or any of
the County's other sources of water become severely eutrophic,
the issue would be greater than aesthetics. She further stated
that the quality of the water would degrade and, if no action
were taken and the current .45 standard for the Chesapeake Bay
Act were to be adhered to, over time, very iow oxygen levels
would occur, creating a chemical reaction that re-releases
phosphorous, metals and other toxics. She stated that severe
eutrophy could possibly cause fish kills. She further stated
that eutrophic water can be treated for drinking purposes, but
at a large cost, and noted that taste and odor problems might
also occur as a result of the treatment.
When asked, Ms. Salvati stated that, if no action were taken by
the Board, the pace of development would determine the time it
would take for the Swift Creek Reservoir to become utrophic.
Ms. Salvati stated that the plan for regional BMPs is sound
watershed management in that it balances both protection of in-
lake chemistry as well other environmental resources.
Mr. Barber questioned which actions recommended by staff are
necessary to preserve the County's drinking water; which
actions are for preservation of the Swift Creek Reservoir; and
which actions are for the good of the environment.
Ms. Salvati stated that maintenance of the BMPs scattered
throughout the County will result in the collateral benefit of
water quality protection. She further stated that the BMPs
protect streams by reducing pollutants and controlling the
amount of flows from new development into streams, thereby
protecting over-sedimentation. She stated that a consistent
funding mechanism is necessary to ensure that the BMPs are
maintained in such a way that they perform their important
functions for the 1,300 miles of streams in the County.

Mr. McHale stated that the people who receive the benefit of
the BMP through stormwater drainage and erosion control are not
just the people whose parcels are located on the BMP.
Mr. Miller stated that he is not prepared to support a cost to
the taxpayers through either a surcharge, utility assessment or
a General Fund obligation for the maintenance of any lake that
will serve collaterally as a BMP, but that is an amenity. He
further stated that he is reluctant to take over responsibility
from developers who would seek to transfer the development cost
in some form. He stated that he feels it is not unreasonable
to question the transferring of the responsibility of BMP
maintenance to citizens who had no opportunity to say where
BMPs should be located. He requested that the Board defer
consideration of the maintenance program until the budget
process.
Mr. Warren stated that the suggested increase in the
Environmental Engineering operating and capital improvement
budget is a funding concept that will protect the environment
and quality of life in the County. He further stated that, if
approved, the concept would be endorsed by the Board and staff
would be directed to present it in a budget package to be voted
on at a later date.
Mr. Miller questioned the urgency to vote on the issue and
expressed concerns relative to additional time to receive input
from constituents.
Mr. Barber stated that he concurs with Mr. Miller's request to
defer the issue of funding the maintenance of existing BMPs
until the budget process.
Mrs. Humphrey stated that she feels the issue of funding the
maintenance of existing BMPs is of eminent importance to her
constituents. She further stated that the Board's approval of
the funding issue would represent a concept that the County is
going to treat its valuable water source as a public utility
and indicated that she does not feel the Board should defer
consideration of funding the BMP maintenance until the budget
process.
Mr. McHale stated that he feels the issue is much more
complicated than merely an amenity for a specific subdivision
or group of subdivisions. He further stated that many of the
existing BMPs are in the process of breaking down and the
County could be faced with environmental consequences if the
issue is ignored. He stated that he feels the proposed BMP
management process broadly benefits residents of the entire
County and indicated that he is prepared to support funding the
maintenance of the existing BMPs.
Mr. Barber expressed concerns relative to decreased projections
of State revenue and the impact it will have on the County's
budget. He stated that the Board chose not to move forward
with a public hearing on the revenue recovery issue and noted
that the County could be enhancing its revenue to Emergency
Medical Services (EMS) through revenue recovery. He further
stated that he feels it is fiscally irresponsible for the Board
to embrace a budget item without the benefit of comparing it to
other budget items. He stated that he was encouraged that many
speakers indicated they supported a stormwater utility fee as
a revenue source for maintaining the BMPs. He further stated
