Mr. Frank Hawksen and Mr. Robb Atkins, representing C & P
Telephone Company, were present to discuss the 911 Emergency
system. Mr. Hawksen stated that this system would enable
citizens to conneet directly to the emergency command post
and calls would be dispatched posthaste. He stated there
was no cost for the service but the County would have to
purchase the terminals. He stated portions of Colonial
Heights and Hopewell would be connected to this number but
it will be advertised for Chesterfield County only. Mr.
Hawksen outlined the capability of the system which included
such features as: force disconnection; ring back; call-
hold; switch hook status; etc. He stated this system should
be in operation by the first of the year and would be used
in conjunction with the new Motorola communications system.
He stated as far as the Company had determined, there would
be only three County residences not served by this system in
Clover Hill District because they are connected to the
Amelia area phone district. Mr. Hawksen explained how the
system would work, how calls would be transferred from one
jurisdiction to another, and stated that this has worked
suocessfully in Richmond and Henrico for several ymars. The
Board thanked Mr. Mawksen and Mr. Atkins for their appearance
at the meeting to explain the system.
On motion of Mr. Bookman, seconded by Mrs. Girone, the Board

represented 25% of the gross revenues from the cutting of timber
at Pocahontas State Park. Mr. Bowen stated that the program
allowing people to cut designated timber in the Park had
increased to a degree much larger than anticipated. He
stated that 3,000 loads of timber had been cut last year.
The Board inquired if this timber included dead trees.
Mr. Bowan stated that it included very little dead timber. The
Board thanked Mr. Bowen and Mr. Baldock for taking time to
presen~ the County with this check.

Vote: Unanimous
Mr. Manuel stated the Board deferred action regarding the
awarding of the bids for the cover material at the Chester
landfill site. He stated that this would provide for the
spreading of two feet of dirt and an alternate for the applieatio~
of lime, fertilizer and grass seed for the area. He statedthat it
would be approximately 60 days before grass would be growing
in the area. Mr. Meiszer inquired why the previous 16 acre
tract was cheaper than the 10 acres capped. Mr. Manuel
stated than the cover material has to be brought in for this
job and that it was on site when the 16 acres had been done. He
stated that this would be the second phase of the project.
Mr. Ramsay presented the Board with a handout indicating the
funds needed if the landfill were to be self-supporting. He
stated that if the rates were raised to $1.57 there would still
be a shortfall of $78,500 and if the rates were not raised the
shortfall would be $146,000. Mr. Bookman suggested that rates
80-427
not be raised at thi~ time but be'addressed in January, 1981.
Mr. O'Neill stated that this project is costing money and that
it should be able to Support itself. Mr. Bookman stated that
the citizens will only see an increase in price and they will
still only be disposing of refuse.
Mr. Manuel stated that Henrico and the City of Richmond currently
charge $7.00 per ton for disposal and that they are anticipating
raising the price to $7.50 or $8.00 a ton and Chesterfield
charges $4.60 per ton. Mr. Meiszer stated that the question
to be addressed is whether or not the Board wants this
landfill to pay for itself or if the Board wants to subsidize
it with tax dollars.
Mr. Manuel stated that in 1978 when the northez~ area landfill
was proposed, the estimated cost per ton~ was $5.28 and that
John Henson with J. K. Timmons now estimates the cost to be
$8.05. Mr. Dodd stated he did not feel it proper for
commercial refuse to be brought in from Nopewell but that
there is no way to determine from where the refuse came and
people will dispose of it at the cheapest landfill. Mr. Daniel
stated he felt the County should have competitive pricing
and recever the operating costs of the landfill. Mr. Meiszer
stated he felt this bid should be awarded to the low bidder
with County forces applyimg the lime, seed and fertilizer. Mr.
O'Neill inquired if staff had the necessary equipment and
expertise to do the seeding. MrS. Girone stated staff had
seeded the Bon Air landfill and it was done correctly.
After further discussion of the matter, it was on motion of
Mr. O'Neill, seconded by Mr. Bookman, resolved that the
Board acoept the low bid of $80,858.28 submitted by Shoosmith
Brothers for the ba~e bid to furnish and spread two feet of
cover material at the Chester landfill, the County Administrator
was authorized to execute any necessary doduments and further
the Board requested staff to lime, fertilize and seed the
covered area with funds for this work to be expended from
the existing landfill budget.
Vote: Unanimous
The Board requested staff to prepare all necessary material
needed to consider a rate increase for refuse disposal at the
Chester landfill which will be discussed at the September
24, 1980 meeting.
Mr. Manuel stated the Board also deferred consideration of
the bids received for the operation of the Chester landfill.
Mrs. Girone inquired why there was a need for and if it would
be guaranteed that the County would receive the accounting of
how much time was spent at the landfill, labor costs, gasoline
costs, etc. Mr. Manuel stated that Mrs. Link with Shoosmith
Brothers stated they would provide the County with the information
specified. He stated that the bid document states that this
will be delivered 30 days prior to completion. Mrs. Girone
again questioned the need for this information and how it
would be used by the CoUnty. Mr. Bookman inquired if the
operation would include the cover material which was not at
the site, the actual covering of the material, the seeding,
etc. Mr. }~anuel stated it would be covered under the contract.
Mr. Dodd inquired about the length of the contract. Mr. Manuel
stated it would be for the life of the landfill which
was expected to be approximately 18 months.
After further consideration of this matter, it was on motion
of Mr. Bookman, seconded by Mr. O'Neill, resolved that the
contract for the operation of the Chester landfill be awarded
to Shoosmith Brothers in the amount of $27,000 per month
which was the low bid and further the County Administrator was
authorized to execute any necessary doctnnenta.
Vote: Unanimous
Mr. Ramsay ~tated that after calculating the figures, it was
estimated that it would cost approximately $8.24 per ton to
cover operating expenses at the Chester landfill. Mr. Dodd
asked that these figures be included with the information
sent out for the next meeting when the rates would be discussed~
It was generally agreed to defer consideration of the roof
repair/replacement at the LaPrade Library until later in the day.
On motion of Mr. O'Neill, seconded by Mr. Daniel, the Board
awarded the contract for the tennis court construction at
Thomas Dale High School and Ettrick Park to LeeHy Paving
Corporation who submitted the low hid in the amount of
$i08,288 and further authorized the County Administrator to
execute any necessary documents.
Vote: Unanimous
Mr. O'Neill expressed concern regarding the Matoaoa park projects
and their completion schedule. Mr. Hester stated that the
projects were originally scheduled to be completed over a
three year period, the projects are ahead of schedule and
all should be completed by next year.
Mr. Dodd stated he had heard some concern regarding the
scheduling of park activities and inquired if the Parks and
Recreation Department had enough staff to handle scheduling or
if this should be discussed. After discussion of this matter,
the Board indicated they were in favor of the scheduling of
activities at the parks to remain as they are currently
being handled.
Mr. Hester stated he would have an update at the next Board
meeting regarding the park projects.
Mrs. Girone inquired if the fence at Robious would be moved.
Mr. Hester stated staff is working on that project now.
Mr. Lane Ramsey was present and indicated that cash flow
projections will require the Cotmty Treasurer to borrow money
on a short-term basis during the year. He stated that this
does not mean the County is experiencing any financial
difficulty, only that the revenues from taxes will not come
in until after the County has to make some expenditures. He
stated the County has not had to borrow short-term money in
the past two years because the County had received funds
from the annexation suit, the County had a larger surplus,
etc. He stated that with the capital expenditures made this
year, the borrowing on a short-termbasis will be needed
just prior to taxes being received in December and again in
June. Mr. Ramsey stated that based on two months projections,
sales tax is down approximately $500,000. He stated that
personal property is also down about $500,000 but this is
not an accurate projection at this time as supplemental
bills will be going out and the new vehicles purchased will
be added when license tags are bought. Mr. Daniel inquired
if the Board could authorize the borrowing all at one time.
Mr. Ramsey stated the borrowing is approved on a calendar
year basis and another resolution would still have to be
requested in January for the following year. He stated Also
that once a certain amount is borrowed and repaid back, it
is still considered that said amount was borrowed and is
included in the total loan approval.
Mrs. McGuire stated that she would not be borrowing the entire
$5,000,000 at one time, but probably in increments of $500,000 or
as needed. There being no further discussion of the matter, it
was on motion of Mr. Bookman, seconded by Mr. O'Neill,
resolved that upon the request of the Treasurer, she is
hereby authorized to negotiate short-term loans not to
exceed $5,000,000 in accordance with Section 15.1-545 and
15.1-546 of the Code of Virginia.

Mental Retardation.
On motion of Mr. O'Neill, seconded by Mr. Bookman, the Board
denied the request for installation of a street light on

representatives but he did not know if this would expedite
the process.
Mr. Dodd asked that staff investigate what safety imProvements
could be made at the intersection of Ecoff and Chalkley
Road to remedy the bad situation that exists. He also

authorized the County Administrator to enter into a contract
with Piedmont Construction who submitted the low bid for
the Galena Avenue Drainage Project construction which funds

Vote: Unanimous
Mr. Dodd stated the request to the Virginia Department of
tghways and Transportation to proceed with alternative analysis
or improving traffic conditions in Chester had been deferred
rom the August 27, 1980 meeting. Mrs. Dottie Armstrong stated
she and others thought this item had been deferred until
the September 2'4, 1980 meeting. Mr. Dodd stated he had not
been contacted by anyone regarding this matter and it was on
his motion, seconded by Mr. Daniel, resolved that this
request be deferred until September 24, 1980.
~ote: Unanimous
3n motion of Mr. Daniel, seconded by Mr. O'Neill, the Board
~dopted the following resolution:
Whereas, on April 9, 1980, the Chesterfield County Board
~f Supervisors designated 15% of the County's Revenue Sharing
~unds for improvements to secondary roads in Chesterfield
]ounty; and
Whereas, $50,000 in combined County contribution and
]tare matching funds was designated for improvements to the
~oute 10 and Lori Road intersection; and
Whereas, the improvements to Route 10 and Lori Road will
lot require the aforementioned $50,000.
Now, Therefore, Be It Resolved, that the Chesterfield
:ounty Board of Supervisors hereby designates $15,000 for plan~
80-430
mix on Station Drive, Route 1479, and $35,000 for plan
preparation and construction of the Hopkins Road and Beulah
Road intersection to replace the Route 10 and Lori Road
intersection project previously designated for $50,000 in
combined County contribution and State matching funds.
Vote: Unanimous
Mr. Daniel stated he would like the Hopkins Road and
Beulah Road project taken care of as quickly as possible.
Mr. O'Neill asked that staff investigate the possibility
of improving Pondola Lane into Colonial Heights. He stated the
citizens have expressed an interest in participating in the
project cost to improve the road and they would also like to
have a street sign installed.
Mr. O'Neill stated there was also a site distance problem at
the intersection of Happy Hill and Harrowgate Roads. He
stated the high bank is a safety hazard and asked that staff
investigate this problem. Mr. Williams stated he understood the
Highway Department had tried to obtain necessary right-of-
way for this improvement and if this is the case, condemnation
may be necessary.
Mr. Daniel asked that staff replace the stop sign at Melody
and Selwood.
Mr. Bookman inquired about Kingsport Lane. Mr. Williams
stated the Highway Department is working on this project.
Mr. Jeffrey Muzmy stated that the Greater Richmond Transit
Company had applied for state aid for an express bus service
from Old Gun ~oad to Richmond. He stated the fare would be
$.45 one-way which is considerably less than the experimental
bus service program by the County. He stated he felt this
service could take riders from the experimental service the
County is providing at this time and, thus this experiment would
not supply adequate information as to whether the route
would be self-supporting. Mr. Dodd stated he originally felt this
buspool would not be feasible and that he has seen information
which leads him to believe that a lot of staff time is being
spent on this Project. ~r. Muzzy indicated Mr. Ira Doom
has been and is still working with this project.
Mr. Mark Fisher, President of the Bon Air Transit Company,
stated that he §upported the staff's recommendation to
oppose this state aid for GRTC. He stated that it would not
only hurt the experimental project but the long standing
local route his company has as well. He stated if GRTC were
to be granted this service, his company would probably have
to discontinue their service. He stated that even though
GRTC would not serve the elderly and the handicapped as his
company does, enough riders would leave and thus the route
would not be feasible. On motion of Mrs. Girone, seconded
by Mr. Bookman, the folloWing resolution was adopted:
Whereas, the Greater Richmond Transit Company is applying
for Virginia Department of Highways and Transportation
demonstration funding to initiate express bus service from
Old Gun Road to Richmond; and
Whereas, the proposed fare structure even with full
~idership will yield an operating deficit of $32,647 for the
bus, not including expenditures formarketing; and
Whereas, Chesterfield County is providing bus service
fr°m nearby Chesterfield Mall which will be self-sustaining
without operation subsidies; and
80-431
.Whereas, the location of the proposed GRTC service is
such that it may attract riders away from the County program.
Now, Therefore, Be It Resolved, that the Chesterfield
County Board of Supervisors is opposed to the Virginia
Department of Highways and Transportaton funding of this
proposed demonstration grant until the Chesterfield County
buspool experiment has been conducted and evaluated as to the
degree of its success;
And Be It Further Resolved that the Chesterfield County
Board of Supervisors supports the objection of the Bon Air Transit
Company that the proposed GRTC route on Huguenot Road should not
be permitted because it will adversely affect the local route
operated by Bon Air Transit Company on Huguenot Road.
Vote: Unanimous
Mr. Dodd inquired about the success of the buspool program.
Mr. Muzzy stated there were 10 riders from the Chesterfield
Mall area and the Dale loop ridership was increasing. The Board
suggested more advertising and Mr. Bookman stated that perhaps
the "Rockwood" portion should be advertised more heavily. Mr.
Dodd inquired if a route to the plants from Chester had been
considered. Mr. Williams stated that staff had surveyed any pose
routes and then suggested approval by the Board on the
ones which seemed to have the most participation and would
be the most feasible.
Mr. Muzzy stated that bids for the landscaping around the
Courthouse complex had been received. Mr. Dan Larson,
Senior Planner and Landscape Architect, was present. He
stated this phase of the planting would be located only around
the existing buildings and monuments, that a second phase for
the new construction would begin when funds were available.
He stated that this would highlight the areas and would involve
minimal planting. He stated the bids were requested with a
guarantee with either the County forces doing the planting or
the nursery doing the planting. He stated the low bid with the
County forces doing the planting was from Cherotuck in the
amount of $11,139.90 and for the nursery to do the planting was
from Landes Construction in the amount of $15,985.00, both having
a one year guarantee. Mrs. Girone stated she was not
aware bids were to be received, only that a plan was to be
presented for consideration.
Mrs. Dottle Armstrong stated she felt the Board should consider
the County's assets, that statewide meetings are being held on
preservation of historical areas and of history. She
stated that if the Board awards this contract, it Should support
the investnnent and take care of the shubbery, trees, etc.
She stated people in the County watch and take notice of
what is happening. She stated the County should put its
best foot forward.
}~r. Bookman stated that if the County spent $150,000 on a
Museum to preserve its history, it could spend $15,000 on
shubbery to improve the landscaping. Mr. O'Neill stated he
felt the Courthouse area was not attractive but added that
when the Board appropriated funds for items such as this, the
County residents complain. Mr. Bookman inquired if the
nursery could be forced to honor the guarantee if County
forces did the planting. Mr. Micas stated it would.
Mr. Meiezer stated he was concerned about the maintenance
after it was planted. Mrs. Gtrone stated that this should be
considered in the upcoming budget and funds made available.
r. 0 Nelll stated he had received a call from a contractor
who was interested in doing this type of work. Mrs. Girone
added that most of the County facilities need improvement.
bl
80-432
Mr. Daniel stated he felt there Was some necessary painting
that should be done as well. Mr. O'Neill inquired if County
staff could properly plant the greenery and if it would
!eventually cost more in staff time doing it in this manner.
!further consideration of the matter, it was on motion of Mr.
Bookman, seconded by Mr. Daniel, resolved that the County
Administrator is authorized to enter into a contract with
!Landes Construction who submitted the low bid of $15,985 for
ilandscaping with the nursery doing the planting at the
Courthouse which includes a one year guarantee and further
the Board appropriated $15,985 from the general fund contingency
for this project.
