Mr. Stylian Parthemos, Senior Assistant County Attorney,
presented results of a survey distributed to Rayon Park
Residents providing two options to address failing septic
systems in the subdivision. He stated that responses to both
of the options were approximately' the same -- 40 percent
supporting either a limited or large assessment district; 40
percent opposing; and 20 percent not responding. He further
stated that, in light of the lack of overall support for either
of the options, staff is recommending that the Board not set a
public hearing date at this time 15o consider either of the
options. He stated that staff has indicated to Rayon Park
citizens that additional options for assessment districts could
be considered if support can be generated.
Discussion ensued relative to the cost that Rayon Park
residents would incur if an assessment district were approved.
Dr. Nelson reviewed the Health Department's process for
enforcing the repair of septic system failures.
Mr. Ramsey stated that two of the eight failing systems that
have been identified would qualify for Community Development
Block Grant funding and staff will assist these residents with
applying for the funding.
Mr. McHale stated that staff will continue to work with the
Rayon Park residents if they still want to pursue an assessment
district.
Mr. Miller recognized Mr. Lonnie McCoy and Mr. Paul Patten,
residents of Rayon Park who were present at the meeting and
provided them with the opportunity 'to speak to the Board.
Mr. McCoy expressed concerns that the residents did not
understand the survey and were unaware that they would not have
a connection fee in addition to the $3,000 assessment district
fee. He requested that the Board allow an additional 30 days
for he and Mr. Patten to provide further explanation of the
options to the residents.
Mr. Patten stated that the $3,000 fee per 50 foot lot affected
property owners who did not have a ihome on their property.
Mr. McHale stated that, unless Dr. Nelson indicates there is a
public health emergency, he would support an additional thirty
days to give Mr. McCoy and Mr. Patten an opportunity to further
discuss the issue with the residents.
Dr. Nelson stated that enforcement action has already begun in
one case and a complaint is being investigated in another. He
further stated that he would prefer to begin the preliminary
phases of enforcement to ensure that the failing septic systems
are repaired.
Mr. Ramsey stated that staff will coordinate with Mr. McCoy and
Mr. Patten to resurvey if that is tlhe community's desire.
6,B, pROPOSED FY2003 - 2008 CAPITAiL IMPRQVEMENT pROGRAM

Improvement Program (CIP) for FY2003-2008. He stated that the
CIP proposes projects to be included in a referendum
02-33
Z/23/02
tentatively planned for Fall 2004; adheres to establish debt
and financial management polices; and continues a trend of
decreased reliance on long-term financing for capital projects.
He reviewed reliance on debt funding and stated that the ratio
is projected to be well below 8.5 percent by 2008. He then
reviewed the individual components of the CIP totaling
$572,752,000, a 5.5 percent increase over the adopted CIP. He
reviewed revenues by major category and noted that cash
proffers continue to grow as a source of funding in the CIP.
He then reviewed proposed county CIP expenditures and stated
that they are fairly conservative due to economic uncertainty.
He reviewed proposed projects included in the CIP by category.
He then provided an overview of the proposed schools CIP
totaling $271,772,700.
Discussion ensued relative to the proposed expenditures for
school specialty centers, field houses for Monacan and
Midlothian High Schools and classroom additions.

desperately needs a middle school.
Dr. Chafin stated that the $500,000 proposed for Clover Hill
High School will address such improvements as interior
lighting, exterior lighting and hardware in bathrooms.
Mr. Ramsey stated that the Board has been presented with the
County Administrator's recommended CIP and indicated that staff
will meet with Board members individually to provide further
details if necessary.
Mr. Barber questioned the possibility of adding road projects
in the proposed 2004 referendum.
Mr. Ramsey stated that if the Board desires to build road
projects into the CIP, there is room in the county's debt
capacity to add on additional debt, but indicated that it has
been staff's recommendation for a number of years to reduce the
county's dependence on debt as growth has slowed. He further
stated that, assuming the current tax rate, additional debt
would impact the county's operating costs.
When asked, Mr. Ramsey stated that there is capacity in the
county's ability to issue debt beyond what is proposed in the
referendum summary.
Mr. Barber expressed concerns that the county's road network
does not satisfy constituents' needs and the state has not
lessened the county's burden.
Mr. Miller stated that he feels all Board members share Mr.
Barber's concerns relative to roads and staff should continue
to look for solutions.
Mr. Warren stated that he feels new development must pay its
own way and expressed concerns that the Board is still dealing
with cases that are exempt from cash proffers.
Mr. Miller stated that he feels the Board needs additional time
when meeting with the county's legislative delegation so that
all concerns can be fully expressed.
Mrs. Humphrey stated that she feels it is the state's
responsibility to provide funding for the county's road needs.

O TO CONSIDER READOPTION OF AN ORDINANCE EXTENDIN~ THE
PERIOD OF LEAF BURNIN~
Battalion Chief Mike Hatton stated that this date and time has
been advertised for the Board to readopt an ordinance which was
adopted on an emergency basis on December 19, 2001 extending
the period of leaf burning.
Mr. George Beadles, a Clover Hill District resident, expressed
concerns that citizens with health problems are affected by
leaf burning and stated that he feels the Board should consider
reducing the areas where leaf burning is permitted or
prohibiting leaf burning in the county altogether.
There being no one else to speak to the ordinance, the public
hearing was closed.
On motion of Mr. McHale, seconded by Mrs. Humphrey, the Board
readopted the following ordinance:

02SN0108
In Matoaca Magisterial District, JPI CAMPUS QUARTERS requests
rezoning and amendment of zoning district map from Agricultural
(A) to Residential Multi-family (R-MF) with Conditional Use
Planned Development for exceptions to Ordinance requirements.
Residential use of up to 10 units per acre is permitted in a
02-51 01/23/02
Residential Multi-family (R-MF) District. The Comprehensive
Plan suggests the property is appropriate for planned
transition use. This request lies on 14.3 acres fronting
approximately 670 feet on the east line of Hickory Road, also
fronting approximately 525 feet on the north line of Woodpecker
Road and is located in the northeast quadrant of the
intersection of these roads. Tax IDs 792-613-9415, 793-612-
1497 and 793-613-4553 and 5939 (Sheet 45).
Ms. Beverly Rogers presented a summary of Case 02SN0108 and
stated that staff recommends approval subject to one condition
and acceptance of the proffered conditions. She noted that the
request conforms to the Ettrick Village Plan which suggests the
property is appropriate for plan transitional uses including
residential development having a density of seven to ten units
per acre. She stated that the proffered conditions mitigate
the impact on capital facilities. She further stated that the
Planning Commission recommended approval and that the proffered
conditions not be accepted, but rather that 14 conditions be
imposed and that the case only be approved if the applicant
agreed to address the impact on capital facilities. She stated
that the Planning Commission expressed concerns relative to the
proposed density and the number of potential residents; the
existence of wetlands which affects the amount of usable land;
and whether the materials proposed for the building facades
were compatible with the majority of the residential and
commercial construction in the area. She further stated that
the proffered conditions do not require that the site be
designed exactly as depicted on the submitted plan, but would
require in addition to the multi-family standards of the zoning
ordinance that the minimum building setback from Fieldcrest
Subdivision be 75 feet and 100 feet adjacent to the lots that
front Woodpecker Road. She stated that parking could be
located closer to the lots, provided the buffer requirements
are met. She further stated that 50 foot buffers are proposed
adjacent to Fieldcrest Subdivision and the lots which front
Woodpecker Road. She stated that in the less dense area in the
western part of the northern buffer, the applicant has proposed
to provide a six-foot berm and a six-foot high board fence with
additional planting over and beyond what is required by the
zoning ordinance. She further stated that the Planning
Commission recommended that certain buffer conditions be
imposed in lieu of accepting the applicant's proffered buffer
conditions which would require installation of an ornamental
fence within the 50-foot buffer as well as an ornamental fence
along the buffer adjacent to the lots fronting Woodpecker Road
and would also require that the fence be extended along the
perimeter of the property with gates at both the Woodpecker and
Hickory Road entrances. She stated that the proffered
conditions also address landscaping along Hickory and
Woodpecker Roads and propose two access points to be controlled
to limit when and to whom access can be made to the property.
She further stated that the Planning Commission proposed a
condition in lieu of the proffered conditions which would
require that the Hickory Road access be gated and that the
Woodpecker Road entrance have a manned guardhouse. She stated
that the Planning Commission has recommended conditions which
would reduce the density from 132 units to 64 four-bedroom
units; require six on-site resident managers, supervisors and
security personnel; and require a greater number of parking
spaces per unit than that required by the ordinance. She
further stated that the Planning Commission also recommended
conditions which prohibit disturbance of the wetlands; opting
out of the Chesapeake Bay; designing of BMPs as wet ponds and
improving them as amenities; and the installation of safety
benches around the BMPs. She stated that construction of the
activity center would be required with the first phase of
development based upon the Planning Commission's
recommendations and shuttle service between the site and the
Virginia State University (VSU) campus was also recommended by
02-52 01/23/02
the Planning Commission. She further stated that the
applicant's proffered conditions address transportation
improvements; stormwater management; timbering limitations;
signage; and the impact of the development on capital
facilities. She reviewed the architectural design proposed by
the applicant and stated that the proffered conditions require
that the buildings be similar to those depicted in the
elevations; limit building height to three stories; and allow
the buildings to have siding with pitched roofs. She stated
that the conditions recommended by the Planning Commission
would require that the buildings be constructed of brick and
limit the height to two stories.
When asked, Ms. Rogers stated that the Planning Commission felt
that additional conditions over and beyond those that had been
proffered by the applicant were necessary. She further stated
that the applicant did not agree with the Planning Commission's
conditions, indicating that if the Planning Commission were to
impose the conditions, then the applicant would no longer agree
to any of the proffered conditions, including the proffer
relating to the impact on capital facilities.
Mr. John Cogbill, representing the applicant, requested that
the Board approve the request as proposed by the applicant with
the proffered conditions. He stated that the applicant is
willing to reduce the density of the proposed project from 132
units to 126 units which will result in 498 students compared
to the 528 students previously proposed. He further stated
that, if the Board were to impose the Planning Commission's
conditions, the increased cost that would be incurred would
make the project unworkable. He further stated that the
university needs modern additional housing because its existing
housing is old and badly in need of renovation, and noted that
there is not enough housing to accommodate the current
students. He stated that student housing is unique and
provided a comparison of the density of the proposed project
with densities recently approved for senior housing by the
Board. He further stated that the proposed facility will have
resident dorm counselors and on-site campus police; is for the
use of upper class students who have earned the privilege of
living in the facility; and will provide a collegiate academic
environment. He stated that the proposal includes amenities
such as high-speed Internet access, a sport court and an
activity center for the benefit of the students on-site, all
designed to minimize the impact on the county's infrastructure.
He further stated that the applicant looked at other options as
requested by the Planning Commission, but the University did
not want to take away the homes of their neighbors in Ettrick
to provide for the students' housing. He stated that the
proposal represents the largest economic development project in
Ettrick in over a century, noting that a $1.9 million
expenditure is anticipated by the students living in the
proposed facility. He further stated that letters and
resolutions of support have been received from the Food Lion;
the Neighborhood and Businesses Foundation of the Village of
Ettrick; the Crater Regional Partnership; and an individual
property owner. He stated that the proposed project's impact
on wetlands is one-half acre or less and noted that the
applicant will comply with all laws relative to wetlands, and
the university's faculty will work with the engineer and
developer to ensure that the project's impact on wetlands would
be minimal. He further stated that the applicant has proposed
an architecture of hardy plank -- a cement siding with a 50 year
warranty which will provide an appearance similar to existing
buildings in Ettrick. He stated that the applicant is
considering more durable fencing than wood and noted that the
Fieldcrest residents were promised that a fence would be
constructed. He further stated that the proposed development
represents a good neighbor and economic development partner for
the Ettrick community and requested that the Board approve the
proposed request with the proffered conditions provided by the
applicant including one change in density from 132 units to 126
units. He stated that he feels the proposed development will
have a minimal impact on the community and requested that the
Board consider relief from the financial portion of the fiscal
impact.
Discussion ensued relative to the proximity of the proposed
development to area residences and the location of the proposed
amenities.
Mr. Miller expressed concerns that campus life is not always
compatible with existing residential areas.
When asked, Mr. Cogbill stated that alcoholic drinking is not
permitted in the University's dormitories and the proposed
facility will be policed by the residents and university
leadership as well as the on-site campus police office.
Ms. Evelyn Jemison, a resident of Southlawn Avenue whose
property adjoins the proposed development, stated that the
residents feel the proposed development is highly acceptable
because it will be state controlled and operated. She
expressed concerns, on behalf of the residents, relative to
orderliness of the students who will live in the proposed
facility and the privacy of the neighboring residents. She
stated that, after several community meetings, the concerns of
the residents relative to buffers, parking, physical features
and policing have been met. She requested that the Board not
impose the untenable conditions suggested by the Planning
Commission that would make the project unfeasible.
Mr. Sonny Currin stated that Virginia State University is a
great neighbor in the Ettrick community and requested that the
Board approve the request as proposed by the applicant.
Dr. Freddie Nicholas stated that Virginia State University has
been an outstanding citizen in the county and he feels the
proposed project is excellent. He expressed appreciation for
the Board's relationship with the university. He stated that
the university has made a number of enhancements since 1993
under the leadership of Dr. Moore, and indicated that the
proposed project represents a sorely needed extenuation of
these enhancements. He requested that the Board support the
project as presented by the applicant.
Ms. Diana Parker, representing the Sierra Club, expressed
concerns that the wetlands evaluation for the proposed project
has been understated, indicating that there is a tremendous
amount of wetlands in the middle of the proposed project. She
stated that the Sierra Club feels the Planning Commission,s
proposed conditions relative to sidewalks, shuttle service and
reductions in the proposed density from 132 units to 64 units
are critical for livable communities. She further stated that
the Sierra Club also supports the Planning Commission's
proposed conditions to document and protect a large portion of
the wetlands site from destruction. She stated that the Sierra
Club welcomes the offer of President Moore for the University's
agricultural staff to test and maintain the purity of the
wetlands on the site and requested that it be added as a
condition of the Board's approval. She further stated that the
Sierra Club recommends that minimal timbering should be allowed
in the delineated wetlands except where necessary to
accommodate the driveway crossing and to complete the BMP
requirements.
Mr. Claude Flythe, Chief of Staff to President Moore and Vice
President for Student Affairs, stated that he feels the
proposed project is severely needed at VSU. He further stated
that the university has a zero tolerance for drugs, weapons and
02-54 01/23/02
alcohol on campus and the same policy would be in effect for
the proposed project. He stated that the neighbors have the
university's word that it will continue to be a good neighbor
with the proposed project.
Mr. Keith Johnson, a resident of Southlawn Avenue, stated that
he supports the proposed project. He expressed concerns
relative to the population density and loss of privacy and
suggested that the Board consider reducing the facility to two
stories.
Mr. Yohance Duff, Vice President of Student Affairs of the
Student Government Association at VSU, expressed concerns
relative to the availability of housing for students. He
stated that petitions signed by over 1,800 students at the
university were presented to the Planning Commission in support
of the proposed project. He further stated that the project
represents a step towards independence for students and
requested the Board's approval.
Mr. Marvin Gilliam, Jr., a student at VSU and resident of the
community, stated that he sees many benefits that the proposed
project can offer the community, including mentoring by VSU
students at area schools and providing an opportunity to
educate the university's students in life as well as academics,
thereby producing more mature individuals.
Mr. Dominique "Smiling" Mayfield, a VSU student, stated that the
students who will reside in the proposed development will be
young scholars with many standards imposed upon them. He
further stated that improved housing is a necessity for the
university and requested that the Board approve the project as
proposed by the applicant.
Mr. Melvin Jones, Chief of Police at VSU, stated that the
university has a zero tolerance for alcohol, drugs and weapons,
and indicated that this policy has been a tremendous asset in
his role. He further stated that the university's Judicial
Affairs Board is very supportive of the role of the police and
where violations are observed, serious actions are taken. He
stated that memorandums of understanding have been finalized
with the County Police Department relative to law enforcement
in the area of the proposed facility, and noted that the on-
site police office will provide a location for both county and
VSU police officers to meet and work.
Dr. Eddie Moore, President of Virginia State University, stated
that the Board of Visitors at the University feels the project,
as proposed, represents a good and fair compromise. He
expressed appreciation for the Board's support during his
tenure.
Mr. George Beadles, a Clover Hill District resident, stated
that he feels there should be a zoning category with standards
for dormitories. He further stated that he feels cash proffers
should be accepted for the full amount on the project, but
deferred until such time as it is not used for a dormitory.
Ms. Tyler Madison, a resident of the Dale District, stated that
she feels the proposed project is valuable and necessary. She
expressed concerns relative to protection of the wetlands and
stated that she feels they should be buffered by at least 25
feet.
Mr. David Anderson, a resident of the Midlothian District,
stated that he feels the proposed project represents smart
growth.
There being no one else to speak to the request, the public
hearing was closed.
02-55 0 /2 /02
Mr. Cogbill stated that although there are 3.4 acres of
wetlands on the property, only .4 to .5 acres will be impacted
based upon topographical analysis. He further stated that a
three-story building will reduce the amount of impervious
surface on the property and allow the wetland area to be a
passive recreation area. He stated that the applicant will
comply with all federal, state and county ordinances relative
to wetlands; work with university faculty to preserve the
wetlands; and continue to work with the residents to ensure a
quality project.
When asked, Mr. Cogbill stated that there is no way to re-site
the proposed facility to minimize the concerns raised by Mr.
Johnson. He further stated that the applicant will provide a
fence that will minimize the impact on Mr. Johnson and other
neighbors.
Mr. Miller requested that the applicant investigate and do
everything possible to minimize the impact on the neighbors'
privacy.
Discussion ensued relative to the type of fencing the applicant
is willing to provide.
Mrs. Humphrey stated that she

Discussion ensued relative to the applicant's efforts at
reducing the impact on wetlands on the site.
Mrs. Humphrey stated that she feels the impact on capital
facilities should be addressed if and when the project ceases
to be dormitory space. She noted that there will be little or
no impact on the county's schools, libraries and parks. She
expressed concerns relative to the decrease in density to 64
units proposed by the Planning Commission and stated that she
feels this is unrealistic because of the university's financial
constraints. She stated that she is prepared to increase the
Planning Commission's density recommendation to allow up to 500
students.
When asked, Mr. Micas stated that if there is a future zoning
to change the use of the proposed facility to multi-family, the
Board could consider the impact of the particular proposal on
capital facilities at the time of such zoning change.
Mr. Warren stated that he feels the architecture proposed by
the applicant will enhance, and is compatible with, the Ettrick
community. He further stated that he supports the reduced
density proposed by the applicant and noted that the students
will contribute to the county's economy. He stated that he
will support the proposed project.
Discussion ensued relative to BMP requirements for the proposed
development and its impact on wetlands.
When asked, Mr. McElfish came forward and stated that staff
agrees there are approximately 3.4 acres of wetlands on the
entire site. He further stated that all ordinances will be
enforced by the appropriate agencies relative to wetlands.
Mr. Miller stated that although he has some concerns about the
proximity of the proposed development to area residents and the
impact on capital facilities, he will support the request. He
further stated that he hopes every effort will be made by the
university to ensure that the project proves to be positive.
02-56 01/23/02
Mrs. Humphrey stated that Virginia State University has an
immediate need for housing and expressed concerns that budget
reductions eliminated the possibility of the state's funding of
the VSU housing. She further stated that the proposed project
represents an alternative to meet the university's housing
needs. She stated that because the county has no zoning
classification for dormitory housing, the project had to be
zoned Residential Multi-Family. She further stated that
approval of the project represents the county's positive
relationship with VSU.
Mrs. Humphrey then made a motion for the Board to approve Case
02SN0108 subject to one condition proposed by staff plus the
imposition of an additional condition limiting the maximum
number of dwelling units to 126; acceptance of Proffered
Conditions 1 through 5, 7, 8 and 10 through 14; and not
accepting Proffered Conditions 6 and 9.
When asked, Mr. Cogbill stated that Mrs.
recommendation is acceptable to the applicant.

Mr. McHale seconded Mrs. Humphrey's motion.
Mrs. Humphrey suggested that a community liaison group be
established between students and area residents to address any
concerns that might arise.
Mr. Miller called for a vote on the motion of Mrs. Humphrey,
seconded by Mr. McHale, for the Board to approve Case 02SN0108
subject to the following conditions:

00SN0265
In Clover Hill Magisterial District, ADKINS RIDGE, L.C.
requests rezoning and amendment of zoning district map from
Neighborhood Business (C-2) to Residential (R-12). Residential
use of up to 3.63 units per acre is permitted in a Residential
(R-12) District. The Comprehensive Plan suggests the property
is appropriate for medium density residential use of 1.51 to
4.0 units per acre. This request lies on 9.5 acres fronting
approximately 485 feet on the west line of Adkins Road, also
fronting approximately 700 feet on the south line of Stroud
Lane and is located in the southwest quadrant of the
intersection of these roads. Tax ID 748-700-4926, 7323, 9210,
9525 and 9744 (Sheet 6).
Ms. Rogers presented a summary of Case 00SN0265 and stated that
the Board has received an addendum to clarify that the
proffered conditions do not adequately mitigate the impact on
schools, parks, fire and libraries, but do address the impact
on roads. She further stated that staff recommends approval
subject to the applicant adequately addressing the impact of
the proposed development on capital facilities and modifying
proffered conditions relative to building materials and
vehicular lights exiting the property shining into existing
dwellings because of enforcement difficulties and costs. She
noted that the request conforms to the Northern Area Land Use
and Transportation Plan. She stated that the Planning
Commission recommended approval and acceptance of the proffered
conditions including a reduction in the cash proffer, noting
02-61 01/23/02
that the rezoning from commercial to residential would decrease
the traffic impact and the applicant had agreed to provide
additional pavement on Stroud Lane beyond the property limits
which would assist in mitigating the impact on capital
facilities.
Mr. Andy Scherzer, representing the applicant, stated that the
Planning Commission's recommendation is acceptable and he feels
the proposed development will have a positive impact on the
neighborhood.
No one came forward to speak to the request.
Mr. Warren stated that he feels the project as presented is
excellent because it eliminates the potential for commercial
development in a residential area; is compatible with the
existing neighborhood; and the developer has agreed to pave
Stroud Lane.
Mr. Warren then made a motion, seconded by Mr. Barber, for the
Board to approve Case 00SN0265 and accept the following
proffered conditions:
In conjunction with recordation of the first subdivision
plat, thirty-five (35) feet of right-of-way on the west

shall be compliance with Section 19-522 (a) (c) of the
Zoning Ordinance. The exact treatment of this buffer
shall be determined at the time of tentative subdivision
review. (P)
10. Public water and wastewater shall be used. (U)
11.

(Amended)
In Midlothian Magisterial District, REALTICORP requests
amendment to Conditional Use (Case 008N0188) and amendment of
zoning district map relative to phasing of commercial
development. The density of such amendment will be controlled
by zoning conditions or Ordinance standards. The Comprehensive
Plan suggests the property is appropriate for office use. This
request lies in a Corporate Office (0-2) District on 5.8 acres
fronting approximately 520 feet on the north line of Old
Buckingham Road and approximately 600 feet on the west line of
Alverser Drive and is located at the intersection of these
roads. Tax ID 739-710-2652 and 3833 (Sheet 6).
Ms. Rogers presented a summary of Case 01SN0166 and stated that
staff recommends denial because the proposed amendment fails to
establish a physical limit for commercial uses along Old
Buckingham Road and approval of the request could establish a
precedent for further commercialization westward along Old
Buckingham Road. She further stated that the Planning
Commission recommended approval and acceptance of the proffered
condition, indicating that the modification would require that
the office uses be established before more than 2,500 square
feet of commercial is occupied and therefore a precedent should
not be established by approval of the request.
Mr. John Easter, representing the applicant, stated that the
proffered condition would provide minor relief for the
applicant and would not establish progression of commercial
development along Old Buckingham Road. He further stated that
the Planning Commission's recommendation is acceptable and
noted that the neighborhood has not expressed any opposition to
the proposed development.
No one came forward to speak to the request.
After brief discussion, on motion of Mr. Barber, seconded by
Mr. Warren, the Board approved Case 01SN0166 and accepted the
following proffered condition:
The property owner and applicant in this rezoning case,
pursuant to Section 15.2-2298 of the Code of Virginia (1950 as
amended) and the Zoning Ordinance of Chesterfield County, for
themselves and their successors or assigns, proffer that the
development of the property under consideration ("the Property")
will be developed according to the following proffers if, and
only if, the rezoning request submitted herewith is granted
with only those conditions agreed to by the owner and
applicant. In the event this request is denied or approved with
conditions not agreed to by the owner and applicant, the
proffers shall immediately be null and void and of no further
force or effect.
PROFFERED CONDITION 10 OF CASE NO. 008N0188
IS HEREBY AMENDED AND RESTATED AS FOLLOWS:
Phasing of Commercial Development. Prior to issuance of
certificates of occupancy for more than two thousand five
hundred (2,500) square feet of Convenience Business (C-I) uses
on Tract B, as permitted under condition 8 of Case 00SN0188, at
least a temporary certificate of occupancy shall have been
granted for a building of at least 6,000 gross square feet on
that portion of Tract A that is generally adjacent to Tax IDs
738-710-9753, 738-710-9965, 739-710-0668, 739-710-1274, and
739-710-1882. (p)

01SN0189 (Amended)
In Matoaca Magisterial District, DOUGLAS R. SOWERS requests
amendment to Conditional Use Planned Development (Case 88S008)
and amendment of zoning district map on part of property which
is commonly known as Greenspring's Gyorgy Tract. Specifically,
the applicant desires to develop this 282.1 acre tract as a
single development from the originally zoned 1,312.7 acre
tract. In general, amendments are requested relative to the
approved Master Plan; restoration of two (2) single family
structures (Ellett and Tomahawk dwellings); provision of a golf
course; road improvements and access; land dedications and
reservations; utilities; drainage; erosion and water quality,
plus relief to street access requirements for more than fifty
(50) lots. A mixed use development consisting of residential,
office and commercial uses is planned. The density of such
amendment will be controlled by zoning conditions or Ordinance
standards. The Comprehensive Plan suggests the property is
appropriate for residential use of 2.0 units per acre or less.
This request lies in Residential (R-9) and Corporate Office (0-
2) Districts lying approximately 1,050 feet off the east line
of Otterdale Road, also lying approximately 1,540 feet off the
north line of Genito Road. Tax ID 716-689-9201 (Sheet 9).
Mr. Jacobson presented a summary of Case 01SN0189 and stated
that the proposed development was originally zoned as a part of
a larger project with a number of zoning conditions. He
further stated that the original case was not subject to
addressing the impact on capital facilities because the case
was submitted prior to the county's ability to accept cash
proffers. He stated that, because of the size of the original
development, substantial road improvements and land dedications
for schools, parks, etcetera were required and agreed to by the
applicant at that time subsequent to the zoning. He further
stated that the developer was unable to proceed thereby leaving
the individual property owners with the conditions of zoning.
He explained that the properties that were originally zoned are
now being developed separately by several different
individuals. He further explained that the Board has
previously granted amendments to the zoning or a part of the
property which was the subject of the original zoning and
located east of the request site (Greensprings I). He stated
that the developers and property owners of Phase I are
responsible for building the portion of Woolridge Road Extended
from the back entrance of Woodlake to its intersection with
Genito Road, as well as Watermill Parkway which will provide
access north-south from Genito Road to Old Hundred Road. He
further stated that the current conditions of zoning on the
subject parcel are that the Powhite Parkway Extended be
constructed including four lanes of right of way dedication and
also that a four lane construction of Woolridge Road run
through the property and up to Powhite Parkway Extended; an
east-west collector road be constructed from Woolridge Road
Extended to Otterdale Road; and an initial road access be
constructed to the proposed development from Powhite Parkway.
He stated that the applicant has requested amendments including
the ability to build up to 125 lots on the parcel with sole
access to Genito Road; when Watermill Parkway plus the southern
part of Woolridge Road is constructed, the ability to increase
that up to 250 lots; and up to approximately 670 dwelling units
plus some office development after Woolridge Road has been
completed through the property to Old Hundred Road. He further
stated that the applicant has also requested to be relieved of
the requirements to build Powhite Parkway as well as other
requirements. He stated that the applicant has requested
relief to requirements for a secondary access for more than 100
lots. He further stated that staff and the Planning Commission
02-65 01/23/02
recommended denial of the applicant's requests relative to road
construction and secondary access (Amendments V and VI), but
recommend approval of Amendments I, II, III, IV and VII which
delete the requirement for a golf course; delete the
requirement for restoration of historic homes; provide a cash
proffer in lieu of the land dedication; and remove specific
conditions of water quality given current ordinance
requirements. He stated that the applicant has also proffered
a number of residential development standards. He further
stated that the Board has received an addendum adding Proffered
Condition 10 at the request of Mrs. Humphrey which prohibits
manufactured housing in the proposed development and indicated
that it would be necessary for the Board to suspend its rules
to allow for consideration of the additional proffered
condition.
Discussion ensued relative to the number of homes proposed for
this phase of the development as well as the development in its
entirety.
Mr. Warren expressed concerns that the number of homes proposed
for the entire development will have a tremendous impact on the
county's roads.
When asked, Mr. McCracken came forward and stated that when
Phase I was developed, the landowners requested and were
granted approval to do various road improvements and were
relieved of the offsite right of way dedication requirement and
construction obligations for Powhite Parkway. He further
stated that, at the time of approval of Phase I, staff
indicated their position would be that the remainder of the
landowners complete the road improvements approved for the
original development. He expressed concerns that the density
of the development in its entirety will generate 43,000 trips
per day and stressed the importance of completing Powhite
Parkway Extended. He further expressed concerns that if the
property is developed in small portions, the necessary road
improvements will not be completed.
Mr. Warren questioned other means for funding Powhite Parkway
Extension.
Mr. McCracken stated that he feels either the private or public
sector will have to pay for Powhite Parkway Extension if the
developer is not required to do so. He further stated that he
sees no opportunity in the near future in the Six-Year Plan,
the Capital Improvement Plan or state funding for construction
of Powhite Parkway Extended.
Mr. Warren stated that Powhite Parkway Extended has been a top
priority of the Board and expressed concerns that the developer
is requesting relief from the road requirements that exist with
the property.
Mr. McCracken stated that the Board has directed staff to
require the development community to provide the facilities on
the county,s Thoroughfare Plan, and indicated that approval of
the applicant,s request would change staff's perception of the
Board's direction in proceeding with future cases.
When asked, Mr. McCracken stated that the benefit received by
extending Powhite Parkway would far surpass the Woolridge Road
extension, and indicated that staff feels approval of the
applicant's request would set a precedent for future
development.
Mr. Barber expressed concerns that the density of the proposed
development accounts for approximately 25 percent of the entire
development, yet does not provide for 25 percent of the
necessary road improvements.
02-66 01/23/02
Discussion ensued relative to the traffic that will be
generated and the cost of the road improvements required in
Phase I as well as the cost of the road improvements the
applicant has proffered for the proposed development.
When asked, Mr. McCracken estimated that the road improvements
being requested by staff of the applicant for the proposed
development would cost approximately $4 million more than the
road improvements approved for Phase I. He stated that he is
uncertain as to the availability of cash proffers in the
transportation shed for the proposed development.
Mr. John Easter, representing the applicant, stated that
because a bald eagle has been located on the property, up to 80
acres of the property may not be developable. He further
stated that the applicant has agreed to provide end of pipe
treatments requested by Environmental Engineering staff. He
stated that the developer of Greensprings Phase I was granted
relief from the original zoning conditions which now only
require construction of a relatively small portion of the road
improvements required of the original development. He further
stated that the applicant has proposed to construct two lanes
of Woolridge Road from the southern property line to Old
Hundred Road which will provide relief for traffic coming out
the back entrance of Woodlake that currently is forced to use
Genito Road through Brandermill.
When asked, Mr. Easter stated that the requirements of the
original case were for four lanes of Woolridge Road on the
entire property; four lanes of Powhite Parkway Extended; two
lanes of a collector loop; and signal improvements. He further
stated that the extension of Woolridge Road will provide relief
for increased traffic out of Woodlake and continued growth in
the area and also provide a connection to Powhite Parkway. He
reviewed a comparison of road construction commitments for
Phase I to the current proposal and stated that the applicant
has proposed more than twice the road per acre than Phase I was
required to construct. He noted that the applicant has
voluntarily proffered the strongest language possible that
manufactured homes will not be allowed in the proposed
development.
Mrs. Humphrey expressed concerns that a precedent was set with
approval of Phase I.
Discussion ensued relative to the plan for preservation of the
bald eagle located on the subject property and the possibility
that the proposed road may have to be relocated because of the
eagle.
When asked, Mr. McCracken stated that from a transportation
perspective, the county's number one priority has been the
widening of Route 360; the second priority, Route 10 from
Meadowville to Interstate 95; and the third priority, Route 60.
He further stated that staff does support construction of the
Powhite Extension to address future needs, and indicated that
the priorities address current transportation needs. He stated
that he does not foresee state funding of the Powhite Parkway
Extension within the next ten years.
Mrs. Humphrey expressed concerns relative to increased traffic
from Woodlake, Foxcroft and Magnolia Green, and stated that the
applicant's proposal will provide relief for the increased
traffic.
Discussion ensued relative to the availability of right of way
for the Powhite Parkway Extension.
Mr. George Beadles, a Clover Hill District resident, stated
that the requirement for a 50-lot second public road access was
02-67 01/23/02
approved by the Board of Supervisors in September 1978 and
indicated that he does not feel the applicant should be granted
relief from the second public road access. He further stated
that he hopes enough right of way will be acquired for
Woolridge Road to be extended to four lanes in the future. He
stated that he feels the applicant should be required to
provide the right of way for Powhite Parkway Extended.
There being no one else to speak to the request, the public
hearing was closed.
Mr. Easter stated that a portion of the right of way for
Powhite Parkway Extension was dedicated as part of Phase I. He
further stated that the extension of Woolridge Road will
accomplish the objective of traffic relief in the area.
Mr. Barber stated that he would like to defer the case to allow
additional time to review the transportation issue.
Mr. McHale expressed concerns relative to the transportation
issue and stated that he feels the conditions to allow Phase I
of Greensprings to proceed should have been focused on the
Powhite Parkway Extension if that was the long-term priority.
He further stated that the applicant's proposal will provide
relief to traffic congestion and although it does not address
the priority of the Powhite Parkway Extension, he is inclined
to support the applicant's proposal.
Discussion ensued relative to the Board having approved the
conditions for the Phase I development.
Mr. Warren expressed concerns that approval of the applicant's
proposal would represent a change in direction by the Board
relative to the policy for addressing transportation issues.
He stated that approval of the request would set a precedent
because it will result in other developers requesting relief to
transportation requirements, and indicated that he does not
support the request.
Mr. Miller stated that he feels it is unfair to expect
something of one developer that was not expected of another.
He further stated that he would support a deferral.
Mrs. Humphrey expressed concerns that one property owner should
not be required to absorb the cost of the Powhite Parkway
Extension. She stated that funding for the larger road
projects such as the Powhite Parkway Extension and the Route
360 widening should be the state's responsibility. She further
stated that the applicant has offered an alternative that will
provide traffic relief for areas such as Woodlake, Foxcraft,
Magnolia Green and Route 360 West. She stated that she feels
the road proposed by the applicant will be in place much sooner
than the Powhite Parkway Extension. She further stated that
because Mr. Barber and Mr. Miller have indicated their desire
for a deferral and Mr. Warren has indicated that he does not
support the proposal, she will request a deferral for 30 days.
On motion of Mrs. Humphrey, seconded by Mr. McHale, the Board
deferred Case 01SN0189 until February 27, 2002.
Ayes: Miller, Warren, Barber, Humphrey and McHale.
Nays: None.
Mr. Barber stated that a vote tally is not known until the
votes have been cast. He further stated that he indicated a
deferral as his preference, but did not indicate how he would
cast his vote.
Mrs. Humphrey stated that information sometimes changes during
the public hearing process and she makes assessments based on
the direction provided by other Board members' remarks.
02-68 01/23/02
On motion of Mr. McHale, seconded by Mrs. Humphrey, the Board
suspended its rules to consider items after 11:00 p.m.
Ayes: Miller, Warren, Barber, Humphrey and McHale.
Nays: None.
01SN0253 (Amended)
In Bermuda Magisterial District, M AND L ASSOCIATES requests
rezoning and amendment of zoning district map from Community
Business (C-3) to General Business (C-5). The density of such
amendment will be controlled by zoning conditions or Ordinance
standards. The Comprehensive Plan suggests the property is
appropriate for neighborhood commercial use. This request lies
on 1.7 acres fronting approximately 400 feet on the west line
of Chester Road, also fronting in two (2) places for a total of
approximately sixty-five (65) feet on the south line of
Centralia Road and is located in the southwest quadrant of the
intersection of these roads. Tax ID 786-663-9064 and Part of
9238 (Sheet 26).
Mr. Jacobson presented a summary of Case 01SN0253 and stated
that staff recommends denial because the proposed zoning and
land use do not conform to the Chester Village Plan which
suggests the property is appropriate for neighborhood
commercial uses and the proposed zoning and land use do not
conform to existing and anticipated area development and is
more intense than development suggested by the Plan. He
further stated that, after discussions with the property owner,
adjacent property owners and the Chester Community Association,
the Planning Commission recommends approval and acceptance of
the proffered conditions which allow C-3 uses as well as motor
vehicle repair plus additional architectural design standards
over and above the base standards in the zoning ordinance.
Mr. A1 Donovan, representing the applicant, stated that
numerous community meetings were held and the only concerns
expressed were with the aesthetics of the proposed development
and not the proposed uses; therefore the applicant proffered
conditions to address these concerns. He requested that the
Board approve the request.
No one came forward to speak to the request.
Mr. McHale stated that he feels allowing the motor vehicle
repair use is reasonable in exchange for increased
architectural standards.
On motion of Mr. McHale, seconded by Mrs. Humphrey, the Board
approved Case 01SN0253 and acceptance of the following
proffered conditions:
Uses shall be restricted to those permitted by right, or
with restrictions, in the Community Business (C-3)
District plus motor vehicle repair, excluding motor
vehicle body repair. (P)
o
No direct access shall be provided from the property to
Centralia Road. Other than the existing access that
solely serves existing Virginia Power facility, direct
access from the property to Chester Road shall be limited
to one (1) entrance/exit, generally located at the
southern property line. The exact location of this access
shall be approved by the Transportation Department. (T)
02-69 01/23/02
o
Prior to issuance of occupancy permit, additional pavement
shall be constructed along Chester Road at the approved
access to provide a right turn lane, based on
Transportation Department standards. The developer shall
dedicate to Chesterfield County, free and unrestricted,
any additional right-of-way (or easements) required for
this road improvement. (T)
Prior to any final site plan approval, forty-five (45)
feet of right-of-way on the west side of Chester Road,
measured from the centerline of that part of Chester Road
immediately adjacent to the property, shall be dedicated
free and unrestricted, to and for the benefit of
Chesterfield County. (T)
The architectural treatment and materials of any buildings
shall include a pitched roof with the facades of the
building constructed of brick and/or split-faced block.
(p)
If garage-type (bay) doors are oriented toward Chester
Road, landscaping shall be installed so as to minimize
their view from Chester Road. The exact size, spacing
and species of landscaping shall be determined at time
of site plan review. (p)
(Note: This landscaping would be in addition to any
landscaping requirements of the Ordinance.)
Ayes: Miller, Warren, Barber, Humphrey and McHale.
Nays: None.
In Bermuda Magisterial District, JEFFREY D. BOWMAN/JULIA A.
BOWMAN request Conditional Use and amendment of zonin9 district
map to permit a photography studio in an Agricultural (A)
District. The density of such amendment will be controlled by
zonin9 conditions or Ordinance standards. The Comprehensive
Plan suggests the property is appropriate for mixed use
corridor use. This request lies on 1.3 acres and is known as
11961 Iron Brid~e Road. Tax ID 778-653-0689 (Sheets 25 and
26) .
Mr. Jacobson presented a summary of Case 02SN0148 and stated
that staff recommends denial because the proposed use does not
conform to the Central Area Plan which suggests the property is
appropriate for a mix of uses to include professional,
business, industrial and administrative offices, notin~ that
the proposed photography studio is a commercial use. He
further stated that the Planning Commission recommends approval
subject to conditions and acceptance of the proffered
conditions, indicating that the proposed photography studio is
a very light intensity commercial use and the applicant has
proffered additional conditions above the standards in the
zonin9 ordinance.
Mr. Dean Hawkins, representin~ the applicant, stated that he
feels the proffered conditions will address any concerns
relative to the Central Area ?l~n and requested the Board's
approval of the proposed request.
No one came forward to speak to the request·
Mr. McHale stated that, although he respects staff's
recommendation, he feels the Planning Commission's
recommendation represents a reasonable compromise.
02-70 01/23/02
Mr. McHale then made a motion, seconded by Mrs. Humphrey, for
the Board to approve Case 02SN0148 subject to the following
conditions:
The use shall be conducted within an enclosed structure,
except that photography sessions may be conducted outdoors
between the hours of 8:00 AM and 8:00 PM. (P)
Except where the requirements of the underlying
Agricultural (A) District are more restrictive, the use
shall comply with the requirements of the Emerging Growth
Areas for Corporate Office (0-2) Districts, except as may
be modified through development standards waivers. (P)
And, further, the Board accepted the following proffered
conditions:
Prior to any final site plan approval, 100 feet of right-
of-way on the north side of Iron Bridge Road (Route 10),
measured from the centerline of that part of Route 10
immediately adjacent to the property, shall be dedicated
free and unrestricted, to and for the benefit of
Chesterfield County. (T)
Direct access from the property to Route 10 shall be
limited to one (1) entrance/exit. The exact location of
this access shall be approved by the Transportation
Department. Prior to any final site plan approval, an
access easement, acceptable to the Transportation
Department, shall be recorded across the property to
provide shared use of this access with the adjacent
property. (T)

Q2SN0153
In Matoaca Magisterial District, SALVATORE J. CANGIANO requests
rezoning and amendment of zoning district map from Agricultural
(A) to Residential (R-12) with Conditional Use Planned
Development to permit exceptions to Zoning Ordinance
requirements. Residential use of up to 3.63 units per acre is
permitted in a Residential (R-12) District. The Comprehensive
Plan suggests the property is appropriate for single family
residential use of 2.0 units per acre or less. This request
lies on 4.7 acres and is known as 6700 Otterdale Road. Tax ID
708-673-2973 (Sheet 15).
Mr. Jacobson presented a summary of Case 02SN0153 and stated
that the Planning Commission and staff recommend approval and
acceptance of the proffered conditions. He noted that,
although the Upper Swift Creek Plan suggests the property is
appropriate for single family residential development of 2.0
units per acre or less, the Plan also supports retail uses when
designed as part of a planned community with adequate access.
Mr. David Anderson, representing the applicant, stated that the
recommendation is acceptable.
No one came forward to speak to the request.
On motion of Mrs. Humphrey, seconded by Mr. McHale, the Board
approved Case 02SN0153 and accepted the following proffered
conditions:
