Mr. Meiszer stated a decision would be made today or tommorrow
regarding the Air Pollution Inspection and Maintenance Program
legislation, H.B. 116 by the General Assembly which has
been amended. He stated the amendment is to exempt the
Richmond Metropolitan Area from b~ing required to have
automobiles tested for pollution emissions. He stated that
we had supported this in past correspondence to the General
Assembly delegation for Chesterfield and inquired what the
Board's position is at this time. He added that EPA has
threatened the loss of federal funds regarding air quality
planning, wastewater treatment plant applications and federal
highway funding. Mr. Zook staked EPA was supposed to have
a list of specific projects that might not be federally
funded if the County were exempted but a list has not been

Board that the County should be exempted from the Inspection
and Maintenance Program as amended and that the Board'D

4.A. Mrs. Donna Granski, representing the Richmond Metropolitan
Area League of Women Voters, was present. She stated that
the League believes that comprehensive planning must be an
integral part of the future development of the County, that
densitM should be considered and such planning should be done to
provide for and preserve open space land, recreational and
park areas, historic and scenic areas, conserve prime
agricultural land and other natural resources crucial to
the ecological system. She stated that the League felt
there should be indepth environmental and economic impact
reviews for projects or developments which could affect existing
conditions. She stated that a piecemeal approach would not
be adequate with the rapid growth the County is experiencing,
that long-range goals are needed as well as conm~unication between
the planners and the Board. She stated unless planning zs
done properly, development will hinder the services the County
offers no its residents. She stated that large projects
must be reviewed and considered entirely and honestly before
being approved. She asked further that the Board commit
itself to a concept of controlled and directed growth and a
method to implement such growth with citizen participation
in land use planning.
Mrs. Girone inquired if Mrs. Granski was speaking to the
General Plan 2000 whigh is general or to the master plan which
is specific. Mrs. Granski stated both. She stated that
over population is affecting education in the schools and
nransportation is another problem Mr. Bookman stated six or
seven schools were being expanded to handle the increased
population. Mrs. Granski stated they were also concerned with
historic areas. Mr. Bookman inquired if she knew of any cases
in which the Board had violated the General Plan 2000 when
rezoning. She stated she did not but they were concerned
with such problems as drainage, etc. on large developments.
Mr. Dodd stated large developments are not where the majority
of the problems come from but the small developments. Mr. Daniel
inquired what criteria was used to deter-mine small versus
large projects. Mrs. Granski stated they felt a large project
was one when the current residents have to take a reduction
in services, for example, over population of the schools.
Mr. Daniel stated if the need for housing exists, it will he
constructed by homes~ trailer parks, or whatever is necessary
as determined To be in the best interest of the County by the
Board. He stated there will always be pressure on the
schools as there is competition for the funds. He stated he
would like Mrs. Cranski to discuss this with the Board
periodically and give her input. ~irs. Girone stated she
would encourage her to speak to the School Board, the same
as she has addressed this Board and added that she did not
feel the School Board uses the County Planning Deparnment to
the best possible advantage. The Board thanked Mrs. Granski
for her thoughts and stated the General Plan 2000 would be
revised next year and solicited her input.
Mr~ Bookman excused himself from the meeting.

Parks and Recreation, Fire Department, Libraries, and others
have gotten together no form the Cormmunity Education Co~m,ittee.
He sga~ed they would like the sanction of the Board. He stated
this type of cormminnee had been set up in various parts of the
State and the State Director of Education had offered to assist
them He stated they would act as a referral system as well
in case they did eon offer courses that someone was interested
in~ Mrs Girone stated the taxpayers wanted this type of
group and it was on her motion, seconded by Mr. Bookman, that
the Board endorsed the proposal for s Community Education
Committee which would try to eliminate the duplication of
efforts in regard no adult education by various agencies in
the County.

Mrs. Girone stated she had two drainage problems in her
district which needed ro he addressed. She stated one was
a stream through Woodmont on Route 147. She stated a cosn
from American Engineers for the engineering design, study and
evaluation was $24,000 and was in the capital improvements
budget and perhaps some developer participation could be obtained.
She stated the projec5 would cosn about $180,000 for the work.
She seated another project is in the Jimmy Winters P, oad area
and the cost for engineering is S10,800 with a cost of about
$23,000 no complete the necessary work. She stated both
projects are listed in the 1980-81 budget according no the
Environmental Engineer. She stated both of these problems were
long-standing and, hopefully, with the new ordinances and
policies of the County, these types of problems will be eliminated
in the future.
Mr. Daniel stated he felt the County should do something in the
Beach Road area. Mrs Girone stated these were very old problems.
Mr. Daniel stated he ~elt correction of old problems should be
done throughout the County and that an entire plan showing the
projects should be made. Mrs. Girone stated the staff was
planning 5o discuss this with'each supervisor. Mr. Meiszer
stated the Board would have to decide on the financing for
all of the corrective problems. Mr Book-man stated he felt
the Woodmont area needed engineering also but felt the
entire problem should be studied first. After further consideration
of the manner, it was on motion of Mrs. Girone, seconded by
Mr. Bookman, resolved that the County Administrator be
authorized no enter into s contract with American Engineers
for the engineering design and evaluation of the Woodmont
area for $24,000 which f%~ds are hereby appropriated from

northern area landfill ranging from $1,300,000 to $1,400 000
but a determination as To low bidder would not be made until
the four alternatives had been considered.
Mrs. Girone stated that the drainage problems in the County
need no be addressed. She stated we are in the budgen process
now and feels we should proceed on remedial work She suggested
that the County Adminisnranor and staff ascertain a
realistic figure to correct these problems and sug.gesn a means
of funding to sccom~lish this. Mr. Bookman stated it would
take millions of dollars. Mr. Daniel stated he felt what
happened in the County last year with drainage, just scratched
the surface. Mr. Meiszer stated the County may have to have
a bond issue for these improvements. Mr. O'Neill stated he
knew of a case where a man was given a building permit 6
months ago no build s home on an island in Matoaca District
as long as it was one foot above the flood plain~ Mrs
Girone stated Woodmont was not in a flood plain 12 years ago
but water has been routed to this natural water course and
it has been widened. Mr. Bookman stated that perhaps where the
County requires one foot above flood plain, it could be mede
three or four feet above the flood plain but, of course, even
the one foot is at the man's own risk. Mr. Muzzy stated he and
the County Attorney were looking into on-site retention
as a solution. Mr. Daniel stated that people have to realize
that if they are in a flood plain, they will always be in a flood
plain, and there is the sontinued probability of flooding.

Mr. Andy Williams, a Beach Road resident involved in past
flooding of his home, was present representing other ares
residents. He stated he had read a copy of the reporn which
indicates the residents stated that because the County was
negligent, their properties were flooded. Ne stated that
was not the case and they are not in favor of the "no
growth policy". He stated that since the mid t970's growth
has been tremendous and it will continue to grow. He stated
what was good for the County, the growth, was not necessarily
good for them He stated the study did not indicate what
percentage of the area has been developed or the area developed,
that the Corps of Engineers had told him they are planning
to restudy the entire area and that the development upstream
is bringing the increased water on them. He stated they
are not concerned with the catastrophic floods but the minor
flooding caused by the average rainfall.
He stated, as he said before, they are not against something
that is gdod for the County but if you conden~ someone's
land for public use you pay them the value for that land.
He felt this was the same type of situation and the County
should pay for them not being allowed the proper use of
their land. He stated this report was just a remake of
everything said before and that he thought a report with new
information was to be prepared. ~r. Dodd stated this was
just a preliminary report and no action would be taken on
what this report stated. Mr. Daniel stated the County has
just started with the program of reading the gauges which
has nog been implemented yet. Mr. Daniel inquired when the
report from the Corps of Engineers would be ready. Mr.
Williams stated he was not sure but they indicated it might
be in late summer. Mr. Dodd stated that he would like the
residents to know that there is not a lot of sympathy by
the Board to buy the land affected by the flooding but asked
that they contact the Assessor's Office to seek some relief
from taxes. Mr. Williams Stated they had done this and all
had received relief except for Mrs, Lawson, who lives on the
opposite side of the street and who had experienced damages
as well. He stated her assessment had been increased.
Mr. Dodd stated she should contact the Assessor's Office or
the Board of Equalization of Real Estate Assessments for an
appeal.
Ms. Williams was present and stated she appreciated the
Board's interest in this matter but everytime it rains they
are paranoid, that people could have died. She stated that
there are articles that cannot be replaced, it does the
house no good to be continually saturated with water~ etc.
She suggested that the County clean the creek of the debris.
Mr. Bookman stated he felt this could be done. Mr. O'Neill
stated it would only cause the water to run faster by their
house. There was some discussion regarding warning devises
and perhaps placing them on the bridge with police officers
or others reading them during rains. Ms. Williams stated
that might save their lives but it would not give them
enough time to evacuate their possessions. It was generally
agreed that the Board would defer any action on this matter
until further information from the gauges and the Corps of
Engineers was received.

have minimal effect on the problem, that there are an additional
44,000 acres that drain to Swift Creek, that they will pay up to

Mrs. Doris Crowell for the Save Our Courthouse Area from
Commercialization Committee was present. She presented the
Board with a petition signed by 83 people from Bermuda District
who were opposed and another petition signed by 392 people in
Dale District who were opposed Ko this rezoning request.
She stated they were opposed because of the historical area
by which this shopping center would be placed, the traffic
congestion that would be increased, the drainage problems in
the area and the close proximity to which several other shopping
centers had been zoned or existed in the area.
Ms. Dorothy Armstrong, representing the Chesterfield County
Heritage Cormnission, was present. 'She reminded the Board of
the principals of a zoning requesn which stated that it should
protect against the encroachment on mn historical area. She
stated she had tried no reach the other members of the Heritage
Commission regarding two suggestions but was unable to. She
suggested that an architect be hired to design a plan for the
area which would preserve the historical value such as when
had been done in Ashland or that a historical survey be done
for the area. She stated she had discus.sad this with a doctor
with the Archeological Socieny of Virginia who felt this would be
beneficial. She stated there exists historic value involving
the Revoluntionary War and the indian tribes who lived here
Ms Donna Lets, Vice Chairman of the Committee no Save the
Courthouse Area from Commercialization was present and introduced
Dr. George M. Hornberger. Dr. Hornberger stated he and
Keith Beven had investigated this parcel of land with regard
to rates of runoff and transport of sediment ~o Tyler's Pond
and Swift Creek. He stated they felt that development will
increase the waner runoff from above Tyler's Pond 5-10%, but
peak flow rates may increase by a factor of 2 to 8. He stated
without measures to reduce erosion from the site a significant
amount of sediment will reach Tyler's Pond, with a possible
50% lass of storage in a one year period. He stated that
even with the high flooding on Swift Creek, this projecn would
tend to intensify flooding along Beach Road and further down
Swift Creek. He stated that to insure that adverse hydrological
effects are to be prevented, the developmen~ should non be allowed
to reduce impact on runoff and sediment which means there should
be minimal to zero disturbance on the forested slopes.
Mr. Bookman inquired if it were developed residential, what effect
would it have on these factors. Dr Hornberger stated it
depended 5o what extent the trees and foresu litter were removed.
He stated there would still be an impact, but less of an impact.
He stated that if the developer did non disturb the slopes the
major problem would be eliminated Mrs. Girone znquired if
Dr. Hornberger had read the proposal regarding what was planned
and where. He stated he had read the proposal. Mrs. Girone
inquired if he ha~ been told exactly how the land would be used.
Dr. Hornberger stated he had not--that he had seen the site
design but not the development. M_rs Girone inquired if he
had read the County's drainage and erosion ordinances.
Dr. Hornberger stated he had non Dr. Hornberger stated that
the flooding in the area had been a backwater effect and not
from the runoff from Tyler's Pond. He stated it had been said
that water from this developmann would have moved downsgream
prior to the backwater coming in but it really depended on how
tong it rained and in which direction the rainfall came.
Mr. Tyler was present and s~aned he did not feel because the
First and Merchangs Bank and the Virginia Mortgage Corporation
had snaned that office use was non financially feasible that
this was the best use of the land. He stated he knew the owner
80-10£
naa a rzgmt to ~evelop his land but not~ --, ~ ~,
expense. .He stated he did not feel the developer should get
the largest profit possible from this land. He stated this
will not add to the area and the County and community will not
benefit from it. gmother petition was presented to the Board
in opposition to this request which consisted of about 30 names.
Mr. Tyler stated he did not have an agreement with the developers
to improve the dam.
Mr Gray stated whether the storms come from the east or the
west would non matter, all the rainfall will come to this
location as storms tend co move and not stay zn one area. He
stated he never said there was an agreement, just that they
had offered co improve the dam by contributing $7,500 to the
project. He stated the developer was not receiving every dime
out of this laud as he could if he were developing more than
the 12% in buildings 6% remaining open spaces. He stated
this plan will set a benchmark for the Courthouse area, that it
will improve the area more than that developed to the right.
Mr. Bookman inquired if Mr. Gray knew that this land was zoned
B-1 at the time the land was purchased. Mr. Gray stated he was
non aware of this
Mrs. Girone stated the Bon Air Historical Society was opposed
so this request and she had received a letter from a gentleman
from the Buxton area who was in favor of the request.
Mr Bookman stated this had been s frustrating with
the entire area from Magnolia Grange to the private offices at
the Courthouse being zoned B-1. He stated that he feels
everything that can be done should be done to preserve historic
areas but a service station could be put on B-1 zoning, He stated
he felt this was a good planned development for the area,
~the taxpayers v~ld have to spend millioJs of dollars to purchase the lan~
the area to completely protect the historic areas surrotmdi~g the sites as
as the si~es themselves, we candor leave the sites in the private sector.
Mr. Daniel stated he felt this was a good planned development
but it was not enough. Ne stated there exists B-1. B-3 in the
Courthouse area but it is not right. He stated he was concerned
with the drainage problem no be corrected but it sometimes cannot
be d~ne. He stated he felu the amount of drainage far exceeds
the acreage, that he hca received petitions which indicate
5 or 6 to 1 in opposition. Mr. DanieI made a motion that this
request be denied, There 'was no second.

In Midlothian Magisterial District, S.P.B. & Associates, Inc.
requested rezoning from Residential (R-7) to Convenience
Business (B-l) plus a Conditional Use Planned Development of a
10.4 acre parcel fronting approximately 400 feet on Midlothian
Turnpike also fronting approximately 850 feen on Coalfield Road
and located .in the southeast quadrant of the intersection of
these roads. Tax Map 15-12 (1) parcel 39 (Sheet 7).
Mr. Balderson distributed a copy of amended conditions for
three of the conditions previously reconm~ended by the Planning
Commission as well as a letter from the developer proffering
a condition regarding the access.
Mr~ Fred Gray, representing the applicant, stated he was
impressed with the quality of the shopping center proposed for
this area, that the conditions could be covenanned in the deed
so than if it ever were sold nothing could be changed, that
there would non be more than 80,000 square feet in buildings,
that the developer would provide silt and debris barriers during
construction, that there would be only one s.ign in the front
which would be lighted, that there would not be any liquor
stores in the center, that construction work only be done
between 7:00 a.m. and 7:00 p.m., and there would be plenty of
buffered areas. He distributed copzes of letners from the
Winfree Memorial Baptist Church Board of Deacons stating they
were not opposed us this shopping center and from DeKalb County,
Georgia where a shopping center by the same developer had
been constructed indicating the quality and cooperation
received from the developer. He stated he had heard some
concern about this shopping center bringing traffic to the
area which he did not feel Was the case because this was a
community shopping center which should reduce the trips the
area residents should make to other areas to do their shopping.
Mr. John Smart, an attorney for Dr. Richardson, owner of 'this
property, stated the doctor had been a resident for 40 years,
that he had looked for the best possible use of the land which
would not he harmful to the area such as automobile sites,
a Vepco site~ etc., which opportunities have arisen and
Dr. Richardson would not consider.
Mr. Edward Willey, Jr., representing the Greater ~idlothian
Civic League, stated they were opposed to this shopping center.
He submitted a petition signed by 229 adult persons in the area
who were opposed. He stated their objections were because there
80-109
was no need for this shopping center, that the traffic would
he increased and the roads could not handle it, and because
of the drainage problem in the area He stated than safety
problems will be caused with only a portion of the road being
widened, that there will be a domino effect of the zoning and
eventually homes will request rezonmng for office use which
could be considered a transitional pzece of land and then it
would continue down the road. He stated Sycamore Square is
planning an addition no the current area and there is other
zoning in the area for shoppin~ centers as well. He stated
that virtually overnight the commercial activities will be
doubled at a little intersection. He stated that even if the
developer donated land for a road widening, the Highway Departmentl
does not have the funds no accomplish this. He stated that
41 people who are Teachers and teacher's aids an Watkins School
are also opposed to this for the safety of the children.
He stated the traffic count in 1978 for Coalfield Road was 2,350
for Crowder was 2,858 and for Route 60, i5,000 and stated that
this shoppzng center would increase those amounts. He stated the
counn for Route 60 was 19,000 for 1979 and this shows that
traffic ms increasing all the time and this will present a
safety hazard in the area. He stated that almosr 50% of the land
to be developed is hazardous in that excavation will have to
be done. He stated he felt this was an excellent proposal but
it is the wrong time to accomplish this. He suggested that a
lesser use of the land be considered rather than doubling the
commercialization.
Dr. Lawrence Pribble, representing Salisbury~ Queensmill,
and other areas, stated they were also opposed because they
are concerned with the zoning and the implications go far beyond
what is shown. He stated that when Cloverleaf Mall and Beaufort
Mall were approved, the concept was okay but provisions were
not made for the 'traffic; that there are numerous establishments
along Route 60 on both sides which al%ow unlimited access no
the highway and with the growmng traffic causes some safety
problems and that there exists a tragic mess on Robious
Road and Rt, 147 every morning and evening. He stated this
should show that careful planning should be done because of
the consequences that will follow if not handled properly. He
stated they are opposed because they feel this would increase
and present congestion in the streets, that the County should
protect and not encroach on historic areas, that the County
should prevent overcrowding of the traffic and transportaton
network and that the County should provide an atmosphere for
a harmonious community. He stated this case had precipitated
a level of concern for planning and development in the County
which he has never seen before. He suggested that the matter
be either denied or deferred for further consideration as there
is no panic to act today and would allow the County to consider
the impact on cransporation in the area.
Mr. Doug Woolfolk stated his main concern was that the area
has three properties zoned for shopping centers and that the
area will be overcome with them. He stated he does have
land an Sycamore Square zoned for an addition to the Square
but he has non proceeded because he is non sure of the economics
of such an addition.
Mr. Dodd stated the County does not have any control of the
construction of ~oads, for example Route 288 was no be
completed in 1978 and it is still uncertain as to when it
will be built.
Mr. Gray stated that thc Board should non consider keeping
out competition in the area as a reason no deny this request.
He stated that three grocery snores and two drug stores have
indicated their interest in locating in this area so there
must be a need He stated the neighbor shopping center would
decrease traffic rather than increase it as people will not
80-110
gravel as far Co do their shopping. He stated the opponents
stated this was a good proposal but the timing was wrong, but
they cannot determine the timing, it is the developer who
determines his financial ability. He stared he was working on
the toll road authority for the County to help construc~ roads
thesince entire the Highway County. Department would not and this should help
Mrs. Girone stated that she felt this Country had a very
democratic way of deciding such mathers as this as in other
countries such hearings ~md participation is nora licked. She stated
she was concerned with the domino effect in the area but by
considering this as a unit and not several individual parcels,
the unit with the buffer would be a statement of beginning and
ending. She stated she did not feel there would be many more
regional shopping centers because of the gas situation and
community centers would help conserve gas and reduce the
traffic. She inquired if there would be any signs on the
roofs. Mr. Balderson indicated that the existing ordinances
would prohibit such signage. Mrs Girone inquired aboun the
maintenance of the center. Mr Walsey stated they would hire
their own people who would maintain the area and they would
have Their own equipment as well. Mrs. Girone inquired about
the dumpsters and their location. Mr. Balderson stated the
~umpsgers would be behind the buildings and screened which
is also in the County ordinances. A resident in the ares
stated that if a fence were to separate the center from the
residential area, that should be indication enough that it
should nog be there.
Mrs Girone inquired about a citizens advisory group in the
area to meet with the developer. Mr. Walsey stated the
landscaping plans would be approved by the Church which xs
adjacent to the center.
A gentleman stated he was concerned that the grocery store
would sell beer and wine on Sundays and would bring traffic
to the area for that reason. Another gentleman stated the
parking lot of the shopping center would be a gathering for
young adults to handle dope, etc. and added he felt the area
residents, as well as the Church, should have some input as
no the landscaping of the area. Mr. O'Neill stated that if
teenagers and others were going to use dope, they would find
a place somewhere and not necessarily this shopping center and
added parents should have better control over their children
~%r. Bookman stated he felt Dr. Richardson would not have
considered this proposal if he did not feel it was a good one
and stated that he had even gone co Emporia to look at a
similar development. Mr. Bookman stated he felt this shopping
center would be far superior to others in the County and that
;~e C?unty ~possibl~cmmot legally deny th~ developnmnt of individual
~rcezs on ~oute 90 to some depth which would be worse for the
area. He added that as residential areas develop, growth will
produce more traffic and this would keep the traffic in the
area. He stated the County could not afford to shun off
affordC°mmercialTo livedevel°pmenthere, because residenns would not be able to
Mr. Dodd stated than Midlothlan District has been a credit
go the area with its residential growth but he stated the
bond company said the County needed more retail sales and
industries co help pay the way.

In Midlothian Magisterial District, E. W. Denton, Jr. requested
a Conditional Use Planned Development to permit a radio tower
in an Agricultural (A) District on a 9.75 acre parcel located at
the northwest terminus of Garnett Road and located approximately
80-114
1,000 feet west of its intersection with LeGordon Drive. Tax
Map 15-14 (1) parcel 1 (Sheet 7).
Mr. Lewis Jolly, representing the applicant, was present. He
stated that with the current zoning on the parcel of land
under consideration, his client can construct as many 100 ft.
towers as he desires~ but they would have better transmission
if one 450 ft, tower could be constructed. He stated the
need for this mobile telephone communication is needed in the
area. He stated he did non feel the 450 ft. towez would affect
television reception in the area but the 100 ft. tower might. He
stated the opponents are opposed 5o mny towers no matter the
size but they can consnruct 100 ft. Lowers under the existing
zoning. He stated he had received 400 letters in favor of
this service and 121 were from physicians in the Metropolitan
area
Mr. Warren Hardy stated this new telephone sysrem would service
about 400-500 customers; the market area is here and that is
why this parcel of land has been selected; that usually UHF
does not interfere with television reception; and that good
reception and transmission is critical To their system.
Mr. Rucker presented pictures of towers at a distance of 400' and
800' which he felt proved towers were very inconspicuous.
Mr. John Sweat of R con~nunications firm stated that he had
never heard of any interference with UHF signals from a 450'
Tower, that towers are good neighbors in that they require
no trash pickup, no fire or police protection, no roads or
drainage improvements. He stated with the gasoline situation
as it exists today, s Two way radio would save an average of
nwo gallons of gas a day per user.
Dr. John Cameras, s doctor in Henrico County, stated his
support of the 450' tower which would enhance the telephone
system. Mr. Griffin Dodd stated a need exists for this
servlce in the County. Mr. Hardy stated that this parcel of
land was excellent for this tower because of the land price,
the elevation and the surrounding land use.
Rev. William Harrison stated all 39 residents in the surrounding
area were opposed to this request. He stated that the annenna
may cause static in their television reception, that a road to
the property will have to built, that there is development
soon to occur around this parcel of l~nd and the land is
residential and should remain for that purpose. He stated
this parcel of land will split the proper development of the
land in the area. Mr. David McKenny, Mr. Herbert Rudd, Jr
Mr. Melvin Smith and Mrs. William Harrison spoke in opposit~n
to this request because they feel a tower of this size would
be noticeable and the land surroun ~ing the parcel under
consideration is residential and should remain that way and
also that since the WCVE lower, the ares has had problems with
television reception.
Mrs. Girone stated that all residents in the area were Opposed
To this request and they have been working to upgrade the
area. She seated as indicated the applicants can consnruc~
more than one 100 ft. rower but the residents are opposed to
the 450 ft. cower as well as the 100 ft. cower but that is
already permitted in the zoning district~ After further discussioh
of the matter, it was on motion of Mrs Girone, seconded by
Mr. Bookman, resolved that this reques5 be denied as recormnended
by the Planning Con~nission.

Absent: Mr. Daniel.
Mrs. Girone sTaTed that she had discuss.ed the possibil, iny of
the applicant using the tower already in the area. Mr. Hardy
stated they did look into this matter and the tower could not
handle their system.

a postal faciliuy on the subject corner; and
Whereas, County personnel have since worked with postal
officials to further evaluane the site; and
