Captain Newton stated that a natural gas explosion occurred on
February 2, 1997 on Mallard Creek Circle -- a twenty-four unit
apartment building. He further stated that the explosion
resulted in extensive damage to two units and moderate damage
to four other units. He stated that upon arrival, initial
actions included a quick assessment of life safety issues and
hazards and stabilization of the building. He noted that Fire
Department efforts included controlling of the electrical and
gas services to the building to prevent any other explosions
and a search for trapped or endangered occupants. He stated
the Police Department arrived on-scene first and were very
instrumental in evacuating the immediate hazard area of the
incident. He further stated that Mr. Dupler was instrumental
in the process of reviewing the structure and integrity of the
building. He stated that before personnel could be committed
to the building again, the Fire Department stabilized a portion
of the building. He further stated that once the building was
safe, Fire Department personnel and Mr. Dupler performed a more
detailed analysis of the damage. He stated that personnel also
retrieved personal items such as shoes, coats, clothing, keys,
and baby supplies and, while in the building, covered clothing,
furniture, and windows with plastic. He further stated that
the Department worked with the manager of the apartment complex
to secure temporary living arrangements for the fifteen
occupants that were displaced. He stated that no fatalities or
injuries resulted from the incident; that building damage was
estimated at approximately $125,000; that the residential
sprinkler system in place played a key role in minimizing
damage to the building, extinguishing several small fires. He
noted that significant cooperation was received by both the
Police and Building Inspection Departments and that the cause
of the exact leak is still under investigation by the Fire and
Life Safety Division.
Mr. Barber stated that the Mallard Cove Apartment is in the
District in which he teaches and noted that two students he
teaches resided in those apartments. He commended the Fire
Department for their efforts and recognized the many efforts,
far beyond putting out fires, performed by the Department.

6. WORK SESSIONS
0 PROJECTED FY98 REVENUES
Mr. Stegmaier presented an overview of projected FY98 revenues
including Chesterfield County population; revenues per capita
for FY97 and FY98; FY98 estimated revenues; real estate taxes;
There was brief discussion relative to whether the tax rate
reduction has been formally communicated to anyone.
Mr. Stegmaier continued to review projected FY98 revenues
including real estate assessed value from 1987 to 1997; percent
change of real estate assessed value from 1987 to 1997; percent
of assessed value of commercial/industrial real estate from
1987 to 1997; single family building permits from 1987 to 1997
on a calendar year basis; personal property taxes; percent
change and total revenue projected for personal property
revenue for FY90 to FY98; local sales taxes; percent change of
estimated local sales tax for FY87-FY98; local sales tax for
FY90 to FY97 year-to-date; and revenue available for FY98.
Mrs. Humphrey excused herself from the meeting.
Mr. Stegmaier then reviewed FY98 General Fund sources/uses. He
noted that staff will be requesting the Board to approve an
advertisement for the tax rates at its next Board meeting and
that the budget public hearing is scheduled for March 26, 1997.
Mrs. Humphrey returned to the meeting.
Mr. McHale stated that the proposed budget represents a real
increase in spending for the County and is a good message that
the County is increasing in the investment in programs that are
vital to the quality of life in the County.
Mr. Daniel stated that the Budget and Audit Committee supports
the one cent tax decrease and will recommend that the Board
advertise the $1.08 tax rate.
Mr. Barber stated that he feels the Board should consider
formally communicating to the School Board what the designs are
of this tax decrease. He further stated that he feels if the
Board is going to accomplish this, the School Board should
support the concept and be a willing partner. He further
stated that what he does not want to see happen is citizens
expressing their anger at the local effort, when the local
effort is good. He stated that if the School Board is a
partner in this concept, they need to express that support, so
that those with a fondness of education know school officials
are in cooperation behind the decrease and are aware of how the
decrease might affect schools. He further stated that he feels
the Board should consider requesting the School Board to be a
partner in this endeavor and for an opinion on the concept of
reducing the tax rate.
Mrs. Humphrey stated that she is cautious about advertising a
one cent reduction in the tax rate until she can review the
entire proposed Budget and the needs of the Police and Fire
Departments and the School Division. She further stated that
she hopes that before the Board commits to a tax rate decrease,
all public safety, school, mental health, etc. needs have been
met.
Mr. Warren stated that there are always a lot of unfunded
requests in terms of the needs of the County and how those
needs are met. He further stated that he concurs that the
total picture needs to be addressed when considering the
proposed budget. He stated that he also concurs that there
needs to be total disclosure going into the process about the
tax decrease being a consideration. He commended the efforts
of the Budget and Audit Committee and noted that Mr. Daniel and

2/12/97

County· He expressed appreciation to everyone involved for
their efforts in this process. He stated that it is important
to bring to closure this phase of the planning process and, in
doing so, also look into the future as to where the process
needs to be carried. He further stated that originally there
were three recommendations presented to the Board regarding the
Plan -- the first being originally drafted by the Planning
staff, which was an aggressive definition of setting land aside
that could be earmarked for future industrial. He stated that
after many hours, the Planning Commission felt they needed to
foster a more moderate and more realistic recommendation to the
Board of Supervisors. He stated that at the Board's public
hearing, a tremendous amount of public input was received that
suggested the Planning Commission's recommendations were a
little aggressive. He stated that, through the public hearing
process, another map was identified -- a map that was
identified in letters and through the press as his plan, but
was the citizens plan. He further stated that he feels the
consensus is around the recommendation of the Planning
Commission. He stated that at the proper time, he would make
a motion for the Board to adopt the Planning Commission's
recommendation for the Central Area Plan, subject to several
amendments. He noted that none of the amendments will take
away from the spirit of the Plan. He then reviewed the
amendments as follows:
Changing the land use designation for Heritage Baptist
Church from light industrial to mixed use corridor.
When asked, Mr. Daniel stated that Heritage Baptist Church has
never expressed any adversary comments about the Airport and
that during the majority of his citizen group meetings, the
issue was not the Airport, but the quality of the land and how
it would be used in the future. He further stated that the
reasoning for the change in land use designation for Heritage
Baptist Church is to allow Heritage Baptist Church to continue
to proceed with the development of their land as their current
Church plans. He stated that Airport noise nor any other
Airport issue was ever presented to him as to why this request
was made. He further stated that to his knowledge, there have
never been any complaints from the Church on any aspects
relating to the Airport. He entered into the record a letter
from the Pastor of the Church supporting this recommendation.
He then reviewed amendment number two as follows:
Adding a note at the northeast quadrant of the
intersection of Centralia Road and Route 10 that reads:
Certain neighborhood commercial uses may be appropriate at
this quadrant with appropriate access, architectural
design compatible with the provisions of the Plan and
design controls which provide protection of and
compatibility with the adjacent residential neighborhood.
When asked, Mr. Daniel stated that other uses for the area
along Route 10, north of Cogbill Road to Chippenham, may be
considered if deemed appropriate and the architecture and
quality standards are met.
Mr. Jacobson briefly explained amendment number two and stated
that, in principal, the County has suggested that retail uses
go at key locations and not stripped along major highways.
When asked, he stated that amendment number two is not being
recommended by staff for the northeast quadrant of the
intersection of Centralia Road and Route 10 property. He
further stated that along the County's major corridors, the
County is attempting to steer retail uses to the most
appropriate locations based on an economic analysis of the area
done as part of the planning process.

Mrs. Humphrey stated that she came to the meeting prepared to
approve the recommendations of the Planning Commission with two
language adjustments -- one for Centralia Road and Route 10 and
one for the residents requesting tree buffers along Newbys
Bridge Road. She suggested that the Board defer consideration
of this issue until the end of the evening session of the

intersection of Centralia Road and Route 10 that reads:
Certain neighborhood commercial uses may be appropriate
at this quadrant with appropriate access, architectural
design compatible with the provisions of the Plan and
design controls which provide protection of and
compatibility with the adjacent residential
neighborhood.
Add the following note to the general notes section of
the Plan, on page C13: The rural forested character of

non-residential uses along Newbys Bridge Road, north of
Whitepine Road Extended, should be oriented toward the
interior of the projects having an internal road
network.
Add the following note to the general notes section of
the Plan, on page C13: Light industrial uses adjacent
to existing or future residential areas should be
designed in a campus style setting to be achieved
through preservation of forested character, landscaping
and buildings with architectural styles and materials of
the quality found in office/industrial parks such as
Moorefield or the Arboretum.
And, further, refer the following issues to the Planning
Commission for review and recommendations:
Establishment of a group with County Airport, citizen,
and business representatives to review development
standards, property acquisitions, and other issues in
the area surrounding the Chesterfield County Airport,
including any capital requirements to secure such land.
Review the industrial development standards for the Plan
and ensure those standards are elevated to the
Arboretum/Innsbrook level and, if necessary, establish
a new industrial classification.
Review of appropriate land use on the western portion of
the Route 288/Courthouse Road interchange and begin the
thought process of bringing the results of this process
into the County's master plans.
Add the note to apply to all mixed use corridor
designated land along Route 10 from Cogbill Road to

Add a note to the intersection of Route 288 and

Due to the lack of a second, Mr. Daniel withdrew his motion.
Mrs. Humphrey stated that she supports amendment number one
regarding changing the land use designation for Heritage
Baptist Church; that she supports the language change for
Centralia Road and Route 10 corner only; that she supports
adding the note regarding the rural forested character of
Newbys Bridge Road; and that she supports adding the note
regarding light industrial uses adjacent to existing or future
residential areas. She stated that she prefers for the Board
to use Chesterfield architectural standards, such as Moor·field
and the Arboretum, if sites are being identified as a standard,
rather than something in another County. She further stated

that she supports referring the issues of ~eveloping a Total
Quality Management committee to review development standards,

not want to change the Route 10-~-~orridor to ,.hippenham Parkway

Mr. Daniel stated that he is aware that there are philosophical
differences and high intensity emotions of perception as to
what is the best for the County. He further stated that he is
also aware that many of the Board members have accepted
positions that may not be one hundred percent within their
philosophical framework, however, the Board has, once again,
demonstrated to the public that this Board of Supervisors is
probably the best working group of any local government who can
come to a consensus for the betterment of all. He expressed
appreciation to everyone for their efforts and stated that the
Board has, again, demonstrated what local government is about.
Mr. Warren called for the vote on the motion made by Mr.
Daniel, seconded by Mr. Barber, for the Board to adopt the

Discussion, comments, and questions ensued relative to the cost
of initiating this Program; whether the Program will become
self-funding if the value of these properties were stabilized
through the Program; and whether data is available on
experience of other jurisdictions with respects to before and
after institution of such a program.
Mr. Barber stated that the question of whether the Board of
Supervisors has the right or duty to go onto private properties
to inspect homes has never been addressed. He further stated
that he feels those who have had an input into this issue are
less concerned with code violations and more concerned with the
cosmetics of a building. He stated that he strongly feels that
it is not governments role to step in between neighbors to
discuss their cosmetic issues. He further stated that he feels
the Board should empower citizens to talk to each other. He
stated that he does not have a willingness to step into this
program and that he also has legal and cost concerns regarding
this issue.
Mr. Warren concurred with the comments expressed by Mr. Barber
and stated that he feels government should not get involved
with all problems of citizens. He further stated that he was
approached by two individuals, before the Board meeting, who
are in the business of rental units and who expressed concerns
relative to government stepping into their business. He stated
that he does not support authorizing staff to study issues
involved in initiating a rental housing inspection program.
Mr. McHale stated that time and again, the Board has received
input from citizens about homes located next to them that are
literally falling down, that are adversely impacting the value
of area homes,that are decreasing the value of area
neighborhoods, and that are decreasing the value of the tax
base in Chesterfield County. He further stated that the
majority of concerns are from residents residing in older
neighborhoods where the trend is for an increased number of
rental homes, typically owned by absentee landlords.
Mr. McHale then made a motion for the Board to table
consideration of staff studying issues involved in initiating
a rental housing inspection program.
Mr. Daniel seconded the motion. He stated that he concurs with
the comments expressed by Mr. McHale. He further stated that
there has to be a mechanism that allows the County to hold
irresponsible landowners accountable for maintaining their
property in established areas and that will assure that the
County maintains its high quality of standards.
There was brief discussion relative to current existing codes
and enforcement in place that, philosophically, the housing
inspection can deal with and communicating this information to
active communities and the possibility of hiring an additional
inspector to handle this work load.
Mr. Barber stated that he has requested the County
Administrator to develop a list of as many items as possible
that affect property values for the Board.
Mr. Warren called for the vote on the motion made by Mr.
McHale, seconded by Mr. Barber, for the Board to table
consideration of staff studying issues involved in initiating
a rental housing inspection program.
