He congratulated Mr. Matt Harris, Deputy County Administrator, and Dr. Thomas Taylor, Deputy Superintendent, for their alliance and teamwork. He stated the presentation would include collaborative strategies and goals, fiscal stewardship, and good news stories. Dr. Mervin Daugherty, Superintendent of Schools, stated the Board of Supervisors and School Board are working together to make the county a better place. Ms. Haley noted the importance of the collaboration between Mr. Harris and Dr. Taylor who are assisting their respective boards with the unified goal of supporting both education and serving the citizenry. Ms. Bailey added that anytime there is communication and collaboration, the winners are the citizens of the county. She 20-90 2/19/2020 J J J expressed her appreciation to Mr. Harris and Dr. Taylor for their work. Dr. Taylor expressed appreciation to county staff for their support while Schools has been without a chief financial officer. He discussed Schools' Capital Improvement Program (CIP) goal of responding to identified needs. He also discussed potential areas for new schools which are 1) in the 360 West area and 2) in the central area near Pocahontas State Park but also near the corner of the Clover Hill, Dale, and Matoaca districts. He then provided details of solutions to respond to the identified needs. In response to Dr. Taylor's discussion relative to Schools Central Office site consolidation to free up programmatic space, Mr. Holland stated he applauds the proposed projects and expressed his appreciation for the balance in growth. Dr. Taylor continued his discussion of CIP solutions and the specific priorities within those solutions. He presented the financial plan for Schools' CIP as well as the financial plan for a potential bond referendum. He discussed ways the Board of Supervisors and School Board could work together to create efficient use of space. Ms. Bailey expressed her appreciation to Dr. Taylor for the presentation. She stated the projects brought forward today are the most critical needs in terms of funding facility improvement projects, addressing increasing student enrollment, and replacing aging facilities. She further stated major maintenance continues to be a primary concern of the School Board. She stated the CIP presented includes funding for three new schools and five school rebuilds. She acknowledged the potential bond package is aggressive but stated she believes it is appropriate. She stated there are a very few needs that a community benefits from more than a good school and a great school division. Mr. Harter discussed enrollment numbers in the Matoaca District and the need for a replacement for Grange Hall Elementary School. Ms. Coker discussed infrastructure needs for the Bermuda District and the need for a replacement for Bensley Elementary School. She also discussed the aging Thomas Dale West and Carver College and Career Academy facilities. Ms. Haines discussed growth, overcrowding, and replacement of A.M. Davis Elementary and Midlothian Middle Schools. Ms. Heffron stated she looks forward to the opportunity to build a new middle school that would serve both the Clover Hill and Matoaca districts. She expressed concerns relative to overcrowding at both Tomahawk and Swift Creek Middle Schools. Ms. Bailey discussed the aging Falling Creek Middle School building and its insufficient programming capacity. She stated 20-91 2/19/2020 the School Board is excited to work with the Board of Supervisors to put together a CIP portfolio that is responsive to both growth in the community and aging infrastructure. Ms. Haley stated the county, in collaboration with Schools, is moving forward to acquire property for a new Midlothian Middle School. She expressed her appreciation to the School Board for the explanation of their identified needs. Mr. Holland expressed appreciation for the joint meeting and the valuable information presented. He stated good reporting from Schools relative to major maintenance is necessary. He asked Schools to take a closer look at the cost of building middle schools. Dr. Taylor stated the projected numbers in the CIP are a lot higher than where the actual cost will land. He discussed different factors which may contribute to cost savings. He stated the cost will be more than that for the most recent project but there will be some savings down the road and the numbers will start to contract. He further stated the numbers do not account for adjustments for inflation and construction costs from year to year, nor is there a macroeconomic forecast tied to them. Dr. Casey stated when presenting a referendum, voters need to be convinced the county is presenting the right number and scope. He discussed how making changes to a project's scope beyond state standards benefits the community as a whole. He stated once a need is identified, the land needs to be purchased. Mr. Matt Harris, Deputy County Administrator, presented the county's Capital Plan Overview. He provided a review of bond referendums in 2004 and 2013. He stated the only project from 2004 not yet complete is a fire station at Courthouse Road and Route 288 which will be built on already -purchased land when there is demand for it. He discussed estimated debt capacity under four existing policy ratios noting the ten-year payout ratio ultimately decides the county's debt capacity. He presented details of project criteria for the county's one- third portion of a proposed $600 million bond referendum, noting the other two-thirds traditionally covers Schools' projects. He reviewed anticipated projects for Public Safety, Libraries, Parks and Recreation, community revitalization, major maintenance, and transportation. He provided a big picture overview of total FY21-25 CIP revenues and expenses. He discussed the major maintenance component of the FY21-25 CIP and major maintenance funding trends since 2013. He stated the county is in compliance with all of its financial policies. He gave a brief update on current referendum projects. He stated the Magnolia Green Fire Station should be open this summer; the Midlothian Library design will commence soon; the contract for the Falling Creek Reservoir TMDL project is in place and work is set to begin; the continued investment in the River City Sportsplex has positioned that 20-92 2/19/2020 J PI J rIqL asset in an increasingly competitive space; and the Arts Center has made incredible progress. Mr. Winslow underscored the need for good data. He referenced a project with an outside analytics firm to establish a unified set of data which will anticipate both county and Schools infrastructure needs over the next decade. In response to Mr. Winslow's question relative to the status of the project and when the data would be made available, Mr. Harris stated staff is working on the project every day and the data would be published very soon. Dr. Casey stated while the 2020 referendum will be a "catch up" to needs, the data gleaned from the analytics project will anticipate future needs with the goal of having those needs in place concurrently with demand. Ms. Haley stated the data will show county needs such as the expansion of fire stations and areas where the county has been trying to catch up. Dr. Taylor stated with the identification of the last of the new -build projects, which is an elementary school, Schools tried to brainstorm ways to be responsive to the data. He further stated there is a win in that project which is in this CIP, not the next one. Mr. Holland stated the River City Sportsplex provides opportunities for tourism and revenue. He praised completion of other projects which proves the county is good at its word. Ms. Haley stated there is an item on the Board of Supervisor's evening agenda to approve funding for a teacher recruitment, retention and salary study. She further stated Mr. Harris and Dr. Taylor along with their respective staff members will work together to ensure the request for proposals is as expansive, extensive and timely as it needs to be. She stated the Board of Supervisors and School Board will work together quickly to put resources in place immediately. She further stated the Board wants to ensure any recommendations put in place are financially sustainable. Ms. Bailey expressed appreciation to the Board of Supervisors for recognizing the need for teacher salary increases and salary decompression, noting new school buildings are useless without quality teachers. She stated she is saddened that salary decompression could not occur immediately, but she understood the magnitude of the request. She further stated by committing to and funding the salary study, teachers are being given hope. Mr. Holland stated he hopes the study will also look at bonuses for excellence in teaching. 20-93 2/19/2020 In response to Mr. Holland's question relative to the proposed pay scale, Ms. Bailey stated the pay scale does not reach the national average. Dr. Casey invited School Board members to stay for the Projected FY2021 General Fund Revenues/Operating Budget Preview work session as well as the Financial Independence Impact Team work session. S.C. SCHOOL BOARD ADJOURNMENT On motion of Ms. Heffron, the School Board adjourned at 2:25 p.m. until February 20, 2020 at 4:00 p.m. for a work session in the CCPS Central Office Board Room, 9900 Krause Road.

PROJECTED FY2021 GENERAL FUND REVENUES/OPERATING BUDGET PREVIEW Mr. Harris opened the presentation with a review of national trends to aid in understanding the environment in which staff forecasts revenues. He stated the county has strong local fundamentals as indicated by the growth in number of jobs at Chesterfield firms since 2009. Dr. Casey stated this growth does not reflect teleworkers who live and physically work in the county even though their jobs are technically listed in another locality or another state. Mr. Holland stated the data speaks to the power of a good educational system because companies move to where the talent is located. Mr. Harris continued his discussion of strong local fundamentals by reviewing data on single-family building permits. He gave an overview of FY21 recurring revenue, noting real estate and personal property taxes account for two-thirds of revenue. He provided details of general fund revenue long- term trends. He discussed the challenges of forecasting real estate tax collections versus personal property tax collections. He reviewed residential real estate revaluations. Mr. Holland stated it is important to look at tax relief for the elderly who may be experiencing higher -than -average revaluations. Mr. Harris reviewed data on commercial real estate revaluations. 20-94 2/19/2020 J F] 1J Dr. Casey clarified that multi -family housing is assessed as commercial real estate, and higher tax bills result in higher rents. He explained that calculating the tax rate is a year- to-year decision based on many variables. Mr. Holland concurred with Dr. Casey, referencing a previous rate analysis and rate neutrality. Mr. Harris turned the discussion to forecasting revenues based on personal property. He stated the county must be conservative when forecasting revenue based on personal property taxes. He explained the correlation between personal property tax revenue and light vehicle sales. He provided the Board with data relative to 2019 household debt, noting 2019 saw the largest increase in consumer debt since 2007 according to a Federal Reserve report. He stated in 2019 household debt increased by $606 billion compared to a year earlier. Discussion ensued relative to student loan debt, consumer confidence, and the need to reduce ordinances and regulations to allow for more affordable housing in the county. Mr. Harris discussed other revenue sources. He credited the Treasurer and her staff as well as the previous treasurer for investing county monies. He provided the Board with a proposed revenue summary. Mr. Holland pointed out the total increase from the FY2020 budget to the FY2021 proposed budget is approximately $33 million, not $60 million or $80 million. Mr. Harris clarified the $33 million figure is a gross number that does not account for tax relief for the elderly or veterans. He stated the increase in the general ledger on the revenue side is 4.5 percent. He further stated staff recommends advertising a 2020 real estate tax rate not to exceed $0.95, noting average tax bills will still increase by roughly $100 even if the rate is kept the same. He stated $0.95 supports inflationary pressures and needed adjustments to the base as well as numerous program enhancements for the county and Schools. He further stated there is still an effort to monitor the rate and the pace of growth for the long -run. He provided the Board with the budget calendar and next steps. S.E. FINANCIAL INDEPENDENCE IMPACT TEAM Ms. Kiva Rogers, Director of Social Services, and Ms. Kelly Fried, Executive Director of the Community Services Board, provided the Board with an update on the work of the Financial Independence Impact Team (FIST). Ms. Rogers provided the Board with background on the Committee on the Future (COTF). She stated in October 2017 the COTF addressed the topic of Promoting Future Financial Independence for All Chesterfield Residents, noting the report took six years. She provided the Board with statistics relative to 20-95 2/19/2020 indicators of the county's vitality and financial insecurity factors. She stated since the FIIT's presentation to the Board in June 2019, the subgroups have been meeting regularly and have identified four key themes which are Social Capital; Financial Empowerment; High -Opportunity Communities; and Human Capital and Jobs. She discussed Social Capital which looks at the value of relationships. She also discussed Financial Empowerment which looks to provide financial knowledge and access to asset -building opportunities and tools. Ms. Fried discussed the theme of High -Opportunity Communities with a goal of creating an environment where residents thrive regardless of where they live. She stated the workgroup recommends creating a housing plan that serves as a blueprint for equitable access throughout all communities. Mr. Holland agreed a partnership with a goal of facilitating adequate housing for new employees such as teachers and public safety personnel would be helpful. Ms. Fried discussed the "Be the Good Landlord/Tenant Guide" developed by Community Enhancement which promotes the idea that landlords and tenants who successfully complete the stages of the rental journey together will result in better neighborhoods and an enhanced community. She then reviewed the theme of Human Capital and Jobs which looks at the alignment between the jobs of the future and the workforce skills taught and developed. Ms. Haley stated this workgroup in particular is an appropriate place to identify at an earlier age some of the developmental stresses or developmental challenges as well as ways to involve the community in strengthening access to childhood early care and education. Ms. Fried stated the prevention program within Mental Health provides consultations to pediatricians as well as daycare centers with specific issues. Mr. Winslow stated as someone who helped write the report, one of the initiatives is to program purposeful interaction between different socio-economic strata. He pointed out that men are in demand for mentoring programs. Ms. Fried discussed the "Reading to Kids" program which partners with Chamber Helping Achieve Meaningful Partnerships in Schools (CHAMPS) and other businesses to organize reading clubs in elementary schools using Chamber and business volunteers. Dr. Casey stated he shares a common priority with Dr. Daugherty to focus on third grade reading skills. Ms. Fried discussed the second area of focus within the Human Capital and Jobs theme which is the integration of career planning and workforce skills that are aligned with future job needs throughout the educational experience. She stated one - 20-96 2/19/2020 PI 9 F third of Americans have no money saved for retirement, and she discussed ways to address this statistic. She reviewed the next steps which include the workgroups' finalization of short-term recommendations; presenting a final report to Dr. Casey on a long-term sustainability model; finalizing outcome measures; and benchmarking final recommendations. Mr. Winslow thanked staff for the report and expressed his support for the creation of a coordinator position within the Department of Citizen Information and Resources to enhance the efforts of communication, coordination, and engagement of key stakeholders. Ms. Rogers stated the four themes work across the general government and they are the cornerstone of how the government engages with the community to best meet its needs. Mr. Holland pointed out financial literacy and civics are critically important. He stated the Libraries could be used for Life -Long Learning programming. In response to Mr. Holland's question regarding the increase in renters and whether there is a crisis in evictions, Ms. Rogers stated she would need to obtain that information in order to understand it and factor it into the course in which the team is moving. Ms. Haley stated based on an informal conversation with one of the county's general district court judges, the county is not seeing an increase in evictions compared to other regions. Ms. Rogers stated the Virginia Credit Union is a strong partner in the financial empowerment workgroup. She further stated as a result of its participation in this workgroup, a financial literacy workshop was rolled out to Libraries at the beginning of the year and will continue through June. Mr. Winslow stated citizens could be educated on the eviction process and tenant rights. Dr. Casey suggested disseminating the Landlord/Tenant handbook. In response to Mr. Ingle's question relative to participation rates, Ms. Rogers stated while she did not have specific attendance rates, she noticed many participants in the Bank On program were ones who were referred by someone from the Department of Social Services who they work with and had begun to develop a trusting relationship. Mr. Ingle expressed appreciation to Ms. Rogers for her department's role in enabling citizens to sustain themselves. Mr. Holland suggested the Department of Communications and Media work on the Social Capital connections to increase the outcomes of attendance. 20-97 2/19/2020 S.F. PROPOSED FY2021 UTILITIES' OPERATING BUDGET AND THE FY2021-2025 CAPITAL IMPROVEMENT PROGRAM Mr. George Hayes, Director of Utilities, presented the proposed FY2021 Utilities' Operating Budget. He discussed the need for a slight increase in the commodity charges for both water and wastewater and a small increase in the water capacity charge. He stated based on the proposed rates, the average residential customer would see an increase in their combined water and wastewater charges of $1.29 per month, which is a 2.2% increase. He also discussed the need for a $275 per Equivalent Residential Unit (ERU) increase in the water Capital Cost Recovery Charge as well as a $25 increase in the companion meter and service installation charge. He provided details of the projected $76.4 million operating budget which increased by $2.8 million from FY2020.

He provided details of FY2021 major capital projects in each district. In response to Mr. Winslow's question relative to adding more carp into Swift Creek Reservoir to address hydrilla growth, Mr. Hayes stated Utilities is introducing smaller numbers of carp but increasing the interval to annually, and this year it will be approximately 600 fish. He further stated staff is researching a more robust carp containment barrier. Mr. Hayes discussed the last major capital project which is the Appomattox River Water Supply. He then noted several achievements of the Utilities Department over the last year. In response to Mr. Holland's question relative to the rate stabilization reserve, Mr. Hayes stated the reserve is going exceptionally well. He provided a brief explanation of how the reserve works. In response to Mr. Holland's question, Mr. Hayes confirmed the Treasurer manages the Utilities Department's funds. In response to Mr. Winslow's question relative to sharing other localities' rates with county customers, Mr. Hayes stated he is hesitant to disseminate other localities' rates due to staff's lack of knowledge of their rate models. He further stated the department does perform benchmarking, and there are over one hundred performance measures available to the public via the Utilities Department's website. S.G. PROPOSED CURBSIDE RECYCLING PROGRAM FEE Mr. Clay Bowles, Director of General Services, provided the Board with an update on the Curbside Recycling Fee Model. He stated despite the overall challenges facing the recycling industry, the current contract with Central Virginia Waste 20-98 2/19/2020 J J J Management Authority compares favorably to private haulers who also provide recycling services. He further stated based on guidance from the Board, staff has developed a new fee model that will sustain the program through the end of the contract in 2023, and that new fee model is on the Board's consent agenda for consideration during the evening session. He reviewed the elements of the current fee and how the fee is administered. He stated staff is recommending a restructured fee of $40 annually based on actual participants which results in a $15 annual increase. He further stated staff is requesting authorization for the county administrator to adjust the fee on an annual basis with notification to the Board similar to the process used to adjust Fire and Emergency Medical Services (EMS) fees. He noted participants will still have the ability to opt out of the program. He stated going forward the program will transition to an "opt in" or subscription -based model, and new homeowners must choose to participate. He further stated current participants will receive a letter notifying them of the increase should the Board approve the new fee. He stated in the future a letter will be sent to citizens who previously opted -out encouraging participation in the program, and new homeowners will receive a welcome letter inviting participation and explaining the sign-up process. Ms. Haley expressed her appreciation to Mr. Bowles and his staff for bringing a recommendation to the Board. Mr. Bowles stated the county will be in a good position when the contract ends in 2023. Mr. Holland stated the county is environmentally conscious and he supports authorizing annual review of the fee by the county administrator.

GENERAL ASSEMBLY UPDATE Ms. Mary Ann Curtin, Director of Intergovernmental Affairs, presented a brief update to the Board of Supervisors on the status of the General Assembly. She stated the session has passed the halfway point, and there could be up to 600 conference committees to finalize various pieces of legislation. She expressed her hesitancy to predict the outcome of any particular piece of legislation while it is still in conference committee. She stated some of the more notable bills that will be decided in conference committees relate to local taxing authority, collective bargaining, minimum wage, and omnibus transportation. She further stated the House and Senate will each vote on their versions of the state budget, and then those two bills will be put into conference committee. She noted the House and Senate had similar priorities in their budgets such as compensation for state employees, state -supported local employees, and 20-99 2/19/2020 teachers. She discussed the state's plans to shore up reserves. She reviewed proposed increases in funding for K-12 education and salaries for teachers and state -supported local employees. Dr. Casey clarified state raises for teachers and state - supported local employees are based on the state's opinion of what those figures should be, and the county's figures are higher. He stated any difference in those two figures would be the county's responsibility. Ms. Curtin stated the outcome of the budget will not be known until the very end of the session. She noted Senate legislation to increase S99 funding would be favorable to the county.
