Parade and Balloon Launch December I comes on Saturday this year. Thus, we are suggesting that community-based initiation activities might be planned in each locality. Plans are underway for initiating Reading Month at the State Capitol. These plans include a parade through the downtown business district culminating with a balloon launch and book distribution at the State Capitol at I:00 P.M. The parade) spearheaded by Magic Industries of Richmond) will be co- sponsored by local businesses and will include storybook and seasonal characters from agencies and stores.

Wherever activities are held) they are expected to culminate with a simultaneous balloon launch at 1:00 P,M, on Saturday) December 1. Broad-based community support for reading is the desired outcome of these activities. Book Distributions Books for teenagers and adults as well as children might be considered) if book distributions are held in your community. Gommunity citizens might appreciate the opportunity to make books and magazines) old or new~ available for such a distribution. Encourage community organizations and the business community to get involved by sponsoring initiation activities on Saturday~ December 1. Schools might support these activities by providing children with cards on which to put their name, address (or school address) and the name of their favorite book; also a space for a person ~inding the balloons to write the name of a favorite book. Parents might be encouraged to take their children to the launching site of their choice and assist the children in attaching the cards to balloons) which may be donated by businesses and organizations, or which may be purchased from vendors. Local businesses may be encouraged to provide balloons carrying the message: .".(XYZ, Inc.) supports Reading Month." Such balloons provide advertisement for the business) as well as support for the project. Only children or groups of children accompanied by adults should receive free balloons. Other stipulations for participation should be developed at the local ievel. Inclusiveness~ howeveG rather than exclusiveness should be the guiding factor in such planning. ..Encouragement These activities related to Reading Month will take place in communities mainly if they are encouraged by the school. Encouraging the sponsorship of such activities by community-based groups is an important way in which school and central office personnel may assist your contact person. Initiating Reading Month in the Schools Monday, December 3, might be designated for initiating activities within the schools. Reports from previous Reading Months have shown that schools have many creative ideas for such activities and need few suggestions from us. It has, however, been suggested that poster or banner contests might be planned by schools during November and prizes for award winning posters might be made during December 1 activities. Winning posters might also be featured in the Reading Month parades on Saturday. Specific suggestions concerning poster or banner contests and Reading Month skits related to such contests are available upon request from the Department of Education. Reading Olympics, Book Bowls, assembly programs and other substantive activities are encouraged for December 3 in support of the Governor's statement that reading undergirds excellence in critical and creative thinking and enhances intellectual and personal development. D.O.E. Book Sale The Department of Education will, in addition to sponsoring activities at the State Capitol on Saturday, hold a book sale or book swap at the James Monroe Building, in Richmond, on Friday, November 297 and December 3. Other public agencies, city halls and county administration buildings might wish to adopt this idea. Letters to Officials Letters to mayors, chairpersons of County Board of Supervisors and school Board chairpersons are being disseminated through division contact persons. Encourage your leading officials to declare Reading Month in your locality. Reading Train A member of the Reading Month Task Force suggested that a 'tReading Train" might be among activities sponsored by local groups during December. A train ride from one locality to another would certainly be an exciting experience for children, especially ii Santa Claus happens to come aboard and give them books. We have no guidance for planning such an activity, but if a local group should plan to do this, we'd like to know so we can participate. A train ride would be fun! Great News!

CURRENT PROCEDURE The license inspector routinely checks each place of business during the year to see that business licenses are obtained. In addition, this department uses various methods to determine that automobiles which are housed in the county and used on county highways have a county decal. Whenever a violation of either of these requirements is found, the automobile owner or business owner is given a warning citation. Automobile owners are given 72 hours to obtain a decal without penalty. Businesses are given 10 days to obtain a business license without penalty. In those cases where warning citations are ignored, the license inspector proceeds to the next step of issuing a summons for the person to appear in court and explain why there was no compliance with the county code. If the summons is ignored through the courts, a warrant may then be issued for this violation. ATTACHMENTS: YES,/~ NO [] PREPARED BY;, _~~' Elmer C. Hodge Asst.

Copeland Post Office Box 842 CHESTER, VA 23831 November 11, 1984 The Honorable R. Garland Dodd Supervisor, Bermuda District 13050 Jefferson Davis Hghwy. Chester, Virginia 23831 Dear Mr. Dodd: My letter is in reference to the public hearing set for November 28 to address a request by the Chesterfield License Inspectors office that license inspectors be granted the power to issue summonses. It is my view that Chesterfield County already has a duly authorized body which has among its powers the issuance of traffic summonses. By granting this power to license inspectors as well, we are leaving them open to the possibility of hostility by motorists for which they are neither trained nor equiped to handle. If we were to grant power to issue summonses to license inspectors, their next request would be for permission to carry a side arm. Let's leave that area of law enforcement in the hands of those who are doing a capable job and who are trained specifically for that purpose; the Chesterfield County Police Department. I regret that I cannot attend the November 28 hearing to express these views vocally, but appreciate knowing that you will give my letter "equal weight" in arriving at your personal judgment. Thank you for your consideration.

ATTACHMENT: (Vicinity Sketch) Jesse J. Mayes, 20608 Southlawn Ettrick, Virginia Dear Mr. Mayes: The pu~ose of our ~iting to you is threefold: 22 October 1984 Firstly, we want to personally thank you for your influence and assistance in securing the lights for our new parking area for Matoaca Baptist Church. Having been members of Matoaca Baptist Church since we were fourteen years of age, surely you can understand our appreciation and gratitude for concern such as yours on behalf of our church. S~condly'~ It"was some months ~gd"i~t--i"'-(R~'~hel) talked wit]¥-~dd'on the telephone relative to the need of having a street light installed at the corner of Wilcox and Fitzhugh Streets. We reside at 6201 River Road, with the front on~Ri'9~r"'R~h-d~-"'iH~'-east side on Wilcox Street, and the rear on Fitzhugh. There is considerable traffic on Fitzhugh Street due to so many people tuning off Pickett Street onto Fitzhugh Street to avoid the long delay · n getting onto River Road from Pickett Street. At night courting coUples use the portion of Fitzhugh Street immediately back of our lot for their "parking place" and, almost daily, I have the task of picking up their beer bottles, liquor bottles, cups, napkins, bags, etc. -- even wearing apparel. Aside from the fact that I do not care to pick up their litter, and most importantly, that area, (where Wilcox and Fitzhugh intersect) is extremely dark and poses a hazard to residents of the area when returning to their homes after dark. With so much robbery with resulting injuries, rape, etc., fear for our safety, even our lives, is a strong factor in the request for a street light. Thirdly, in the immediate area of our residence (on River Road) is the plan for the construction of a Drug and Retail Store. We are strongly opposed to this plan. It will add to the conjestion and traffic build-up at this point on River Road due to above mentioned traffic flow from Pickett Street onto River Road and from Pickett Street onto Fitzhugh, to Wilcox, thence to River Road. With a place of business almost directly across from Wilcox Street, and so near to Pickett Street, traffic conjestionwill become more prevalent. The area for the proposed Drug Store is primarily a residential area, with the residents being firmly established in their homes. Also the immediate adjoin- ing area consists of three churches, and many of the residents in this area walk to and from church services three and four times per week. Mr. Mayes, please give careful consideration to the above requests, as need for a street light is great, and the need for a Drug Store is nil. Sincerely, L E. HOLT LU O36 CHESTERFI ELD COUNTY BOARD OF SUPERVISORS AGE NDA MEETING DATE: November 28 ~ 1984 SUBJECT: Traffic Signal Study ITEM NUMBER: 9.C.3.

Vote: Certified By: Joan S. Dolezal, Deputy Clerk to the Board of Supervisors 039 CHESTERFI ELD COUNTY BOARD OF SUPERVISORS AGENDA MEETING DATE: SUBJECT: November 28, 1984 ..'EM NUMBER: zoning of Pocoshock Hills, Section 3 9.C.4. COUNTY ADMINISTRATOR'S COMMENTS: SUMMARY OFINFORMATION: On July 22, 1981, upon a favorable recommendation from the Planning Commission, the Board of Supervisors approved a Conditional Use (Case 81S064 Amended) to permit 27 duplexes (i.e., 54 dwelling units) on property which was already zoned Residential (R-7) and is now known as Pocoshock Hills, Section 3 (see attached zoning map and plat). The Conditional Use was granted with imposition of conditions and acceptance of proffered conditions, as follows: This Conditional Use shall be granted for the purpose of constructing twenty-seven (27) duplexes (i.e., 54 units). A duplex shall not be permitted on Lot 5, Block A, Section 2 of Pocoshock Hills. This lot may either be utilized as a means to obtain a second access or shall be developed for single family residential use. ATTACHMENTS: YES PREPARED B~~-'(~'~- S-tanl~R. Balderson, Jr. / SD-'tm ra~cl to~r R~ f B;ll ad~2ning SIGNATURE: ' ' COUNTY ADMINISTRATOR O4O A minimum of two (2) on-site parking spaces shall be provided for each unit. All spaces shall be located a minimum of fifteen (15) feet from public right-of-way lines. The structures shall have an architectural style similar to the existing single family dwellings located in the area. Specifically, the structures shall be of brick or frame construction. The above stated conditions notwithstanding all bulk requirements of the Residential (R-7) District shall be applicable. The above stated conditions notwithstanding the site plan prepared by Frank F. Potts, Jr. and Associates, submitted with the application, shall be considered the plan of development. (Note: It will be necessary to obtain tentative subdivision approval from the Planning Commission.) Proffered Conditions Minimum square footage shall be 1100 square feet per unit or 2200 square feet per structure. Construction shall be in accordance with plans submitted with the application. 3. Ail driveways are to be asphalt. 4. Ail foundations are to be block and brick construction. Lot 5A, Section 2, Pocoshock Hills and Lots 6 and 7 on this application shall be withdrawn. The neighborhood has requested Staff to advise the Board of Supervisors that the property is now being developed with a combination of both conventional single family dwellings and duplexes (see the attached petition). The single family dwellings being constructed are not required to comply with conditions of the Conditional Use for the duplexes. The neighborhood does not feel that the new single family homes are of the same quality as the duplexes or the existing single family homes in the area. RECOMMENDATION Should the Board wish to consider rezoning and/or Conditional Use Planned Development of the request parcel to address neighborhood concerns relative to compatibility between uses on the property and the surrounding neighborhood, Staff should be directed to prepare a rezoning application for Planning Commission and Board of Supervisors public hearings.

'c¥ .' · . jr' / / / 043 October 10~8~ To: Director Planning Commission Chesterfield, Virginia To: Chairman Supervisors ~ Board of Chesterfield, Virginia 1. We, the undersigned, respectfully reques£ that the zoning ordnance to property in ?ocoshock Hills, specifically along and at the end of Lot 14 on Bowlin Court be re-zoned for single family units only. This request based upon the following: a. When initial hearings were being held concerning re-zoning this area for' inclusion of multiple family units, participants to the meeting were advised that duplex "towahouse" units of brick and representative of existing quality would be permitted in the neighborhood. b. The general acquiescence of the neighborhood participants was on the pre- mise that these assurances would materialize with units as shown in photographs, i,e. brick, one entrance, etc. In fact, the board's vote to re-zone was taken while theparticipanta,.w~:e viewing.the photographs. c. Subsequent actions clearly indicate a .disregard for these initial assur- &rices. d. Duplex units have been constructed interspersed with single family units throughout the area of new construction. To this point, new construction on Ives Lane has been limited to 3 single family houses to the intersection with' Bowlin Court,and only 1 single family house beyond the intersection. e. The duplexes already constructed are obviously not of the quality or appear- ance expected from assurances ~iven during the hearings on this matter. In fact, they are indicative of the'grade of housing which in turn can do nothing more than. lower the real estate values of the earlier property owners who have made this area their home over the years. f. Then duplex units generally are rental properties and are such that it can be expected that transient type persons will be attracted which experience has shown is not conducive to the serene and peaceful n~ighborhood our area has always been. ~, 2. In summary, it is considered that a trust was broken in the initial assurances which cannot be totally corrected as units h~ve already been constructed. However, partial correction can be effected with the re-zoning to single family units as re- quested. We request your early attention to this matter.

The CSB sets policy for the County's Department of Mental Health and Mental Retardation.

She has expressed a willingness to serve an additional term, and I would like to strongly recommend that you reappoint her. If you wish to appoint someone else, I suggest that you have that person meet with me prior to the appointment so that the functions of the CSB can be explained to him.

UTILITY PUBLIC HEARING: Ordinance to vacate Herndon Street within Werth's Addition to Chester. COUNTY ADMINISTRATOR'S COMMENTS: SUMMARY OF INFORMATION On July 25, 1984, the Board requested the Right of Way Office to prepare the necessary documents for a public hearing to vacate the Herndon Street right of way. Certified letters were sent to all adjoining owners notifying them of the public hearing to vacate and requesting their comments by October 26, 1984. As of that date, five (5) have responded in favor of vacating, two (2) opposing the vacation stating the road should be constructed, and five (5) did not respond. This proposed vacation has been reviewed by staff and the Transportation Department recommends that vacation of this right of way be deferred until the land use and transportation analysis of this area, and design of Route 10 widening through Chester are complete. These studies may reveal that parcels fronting Route 10 should access through the rear via Herndon Street. If vacated, the area will be retained as a drainage and utility easement.

CHESTERFI ELD COUNTY BOARD OF SUPERVISORS AGENDA MEETING DATE: November 28, 1984 ITEM NUMBER: 9.J. SUBJECT: Work Session to Discuss the Proposed Legislative Package for the 1985 Session COUNTY ADMINISTRATOR'S COMMENTR: SUMMARY OF INFORMATION A work session has been established for tile Board and Legislative Delegation on,Wednesday, November 28, 1984 at 5:00 p.m. at the Brandermill Inn and Conference Center, 13550 Harbour Pointe Parkway. Dinner will follow the discussion. A draft of the proposed legislation is being prepared. We have been in contact with some of the members of the Delegation and when this process is complete, a proposed draft will be sent to the Board prior to the work session. ATTACHMENTS: YES 1'3 NO Patron DRAFT #3 November 21, 1984 1985 LEGISLATIVE PROGRAM FOR CHESTERFIELD COUNTY PRIORITY ITEMS Support H.B. 911 (carry-over bill) providing that the Medicaid Reimbursement Formula for eligible persons in local-government operated nursing homes be the same as the one used for reim- bursing state-owned geriatric institutions. Rationale: The reimbursement formula adopted by the State Health Department places the County's Nursing Home in the same category as private, for-profit nursing homes resulting in a substantial reduction in Federal and State reimbursement to locally-operated nursing homes. Since locally operated nursing homes typically care for the most needy in the same fashion as State institutions, local nursing homes should be separately classified from nursing homes operated as businesses. Amend the applicable section of the Code to permit Chesterfield County to be a member of both the Crater and Richmond Regional Planning District Commissions. Also amend Section 15.1-1507(7)(c) to provide for compensation for the member of the local governing body serving on the Crater Planning District Commission. Rationale: Because of Chesterfield's size and proximity to both the Richmond and Crater Planning Districts, Chesterfield needs to have a voice in both regional planning bodies. Chesterfield supports regional cooperation, and that goal can best be served by membership on both commissions. e Amend §33.1-75.1 to increase the ability of localities to contribute up to 25% of general revenue sharing money not to exceed $500,000 to be matched by Highway Department funds provided that the total fund available from the Highway Department state-wide shall not exceed $5,000,000. Rationale: Under current law the County contri~ mum amount of local revenue sharing funds (15%, matched by State Highway Department funds. }_ rapid growth of the County, current funding fo~ adequately fund County road needs. This proposal is the most efficient mechanism to increase resources for roads and with a cap on the maximum contribution, there could not be an exces- sive drain on the Highway Fund. The cap on the total amount available from the Highway Fund should eliminate the concerns of the Highway Department over a run on limited highway funds. e Amend the Uniform Building Code to forbid the use of 50/50 (lead/tin) solder for the purpose of connecting water distribution pipes. Rationale: Chesterfield has identified an excessive amount of lead in the water of new homes and schools constructed with 50/50 solder used in the connections for internal water lines. After meeting with the State Health Department and the State Board of Housing, both state agencies have agreed to study the matter, however, there is no certainty if or when those agencies would adopt regulations prohibiting 50/50 solder. The Building Official recommends requiring by law, the use of 95% tin and 5% antimony, a solution adopted by other states in the Southeast. Amend the special legislation creating the Capital Region Airport Commission to increase Chesterfield's voting representation from three to four. Rationale: The original state legislation creating the CRAC only allocated three voting members to Chesterfield even though Richmond and Henrico were allotted four voting members. When Chesterfield joined the Commission, Richmond and Henrico agreed to support increasing Chesterfield's voting membership to four since all the local governments share equally any financial risk arising from the Airport operations. COMMUNITY DEVELOPMENT e Support adoption of state criteria for the allocation of industrial revenue bonds that maximize economic development opportunities for localities. Rationale: The General Assembly's Bond Act Study Commission is recommending that priority for allocating limited industrial revenue bond authority be given to those localities with a perceived high degree of fiscal stress and a high rate of unemployment. Very low priority is given to rapidly growing localities that provide the most attractive opportunities for locating new commercial and industrial projects. -2- Remove the cap on local contributions to the State Highway Department for local road projects. Rationale: Section 33.1-75.3 of the Code of Virginia places a fifty-five million dollar/five year ceiling on the amount of local revenues from all sources that may be transferred to the VDH&T for the purpose of constructing or improving local roads. If localities are interested in contributing local dollars for highway projects when state funding is inadequate, the VDH&T should not be allowed to place artificial restrictions on the amount of local money that is used for road projects. (Fairfax County request) Oppose any change in the common law riparian rights doctrine which limits interbasin transfer of water resources without the approval of all localities involved in the transfer. Rationale: Each locality needs the ability to properly plan its growth by being able to regulate the future use of its water resources. Several study commissions have recommended that the State Water Control Board be granted absolute authority to regulate the transfer of water resources without any effective way for affected localities to protect its water resources. Expand the ability of the County to use of local revenue sharing match money for primary roads as well as secondary roads. Rationale: State law restricts the use of local revenue sharing match money for secondary roads even though a large percentage of Chesterfield automobile traffic daily uses such primary roads as Chippenham Parkway, Route 1, Route 10, Route 60 and Route 360. The County needs the flexibility to use revenue sharing funds on those important highways when conditions require immediate improvements. 10. FINANCE Support an amendment to §4-22 to provide for the distribution of ABC profits by Tayloe-Murphy population figures rather than 1980 census figures. Rationale: Many cities receive an excessive distribution of ABC profits because the census figures used to make the allocation are not current. For example, Norfolk receives $1,000,000 per year more in ABC allocation than they would receive if the State used Tayloe-Murphy figures. -3- 11. 12. Amend the Virginia Procurement Act to allow localities to enter into design-build contracts. Rationale: Design-build contracts permit a purchaser to contract with both the designer and builder of a building in a single transaction. In certain circumstances that approach is more efficient and less costly than separately contracting with an architect and contractor. For example, the new Parker Field is being built under a design-build concept. State agencies are permitted the ability to use design-build contracts when desirable and similar authority should be granted localities. Support funding by the General Assembly for the Water and Sewer Assistance Authority. Rationale: Last year the General Assembly created the Water and Sewer Assistance Authority to make iow interest loans to local governments to make water and sewage treatment improve- ments. The Authority, however, has not been adequately funded and the General Assembly should increase the lending oppor- tunities of the Authority so that the water quality of the State will remain high. 13. GENERAL GOVERNMENT Amend §58-587.2 to clarify the fact that telephone surcharges for 911 emergency service can be used to pay operating costs directly related to the 911 emergency service. Rationale: Present law only specifically authorizes localities to recover through a surcharge, maintenance and installation costs for 911 emergency systems but is silent on the ability of localities to recover operating costs. The current fifteen cent surcharge in place in Richmond, Chesterfield and Henrico was calculated to recover installation, maintenance and operating expenses. The ambiguity in state law should be eliminated by adding "operating" to the allowable expenses that may be recovered through a surcharge. 14. Amend §§15.1-155 and 15.1-137.2 to provide consistency in the limits for local rewards. Rationale: One section of the State Code allows local rewards in an amount not to exceed $500 while a more recently adopted provision grants authority for rewards in unlimited amounts. The Commonwealth's Attorney has requested that the inconsistency be resolved by eliminating the $500 limitation. -4- 15. Support local option for all forms of County government (or for urban immune counties) to permit the appointment of school board members by the governing body after holding a public hearing and adoption of an ordinance. Rationale: Under the traditional form of County government, members of the School Board Selection Commission are appointed by the Circuit Court and are responsible for appointing members to the School Board. The only mechanism by which the Board of Supervisors can currently appoint members to the School Board is by holding a referendum to change the method of appointment or by changing the form of government after holding a referendum. 16. Oppose any changes in the manner of involuntary commitments to State hospitals unless the State funds any additional costs. (HB 4) Rationale: The proposed change in involuntary commitment procedures would require substantially more staff time by local Mental Health Services. If the State chooses to adopt this expanded process for commitment, the State should fund all increased costs. 17. 18. Amend §36-98 of the Code to allow local governments to require the installation of automatic sprinkler systems in any new structure if the structure is more than 48 feet in height above the lowest level of fire department vehicle access. Rationale: Fire officials in Chesterfield are concerned that present requirements will not afford the necessary protection in the many multi-story buildings that are now being built in Chesterfield. In the absence of very expensive fire suppression vehicles, the only way to insure protection to the users of multi-story buildings is by building in fire suppression capabilities. Add a section to the Code to make it a Class 4 felony for anyone to maliciously burn or cause to be burned, anything capable of producing smoke or toxic acids in a penal institution. Rationale: The Commonwealth Attorney's interpretation of existing law is that a building must be physically damaged before a person is capable of violating the analogous section in the Code. Even when charring does not occur, there are times when smoke and gases are present which can be fatal to occu- pants. -5- 19. Reserve for any County response to VACO legislative program. (VACO program to be finalized November 12th) -6- Patron A D D E N D U M November 27, 1984 1985 LEGISLATIVE PROGI~AM e COMMUNITY DEVELOPMENT Amend §14.1-466 to permit local governments to create develop- ment transportation districts. Rationale: Localities need authority to establish transportation districts, similar in concept to drainage districts, where develop- ment would pay a pro-rata share of improvements needed for the arterial and major collector road systems within that district. When incremental development creates the need for an area-wide road improvement, those projects which take advantage of the improvement should pay a pro-rata share of the cost of the improvement. Unless the parcels within the area using the highway improvement supply a portion of the cost of the project, the tax payer generally will be forced to subsidize growth. Oppose legislative limitations on the use of local work forces. (HB 880 Carry over bill) Rationale: HB 880 would severely limit the County's discretion to use County employees to perform public works projects such as drainage improvements. The bill is anti-competitive and would prevent local government work forces from efficiently using its resources to keep local government costs low. e Support legislation to authorize localities to impose on developers the cost of contiguous road improvements necessitated by the development itself. Rationale: Currently, high intensity commercial developments are not obligated to improve contiguous roads or intersections even when the development itself necessitates the need for the improvements. Those improvements required by the development must now be paid for from the County's secondary road fund when the County had no real control over whether the project would be built. Ultimately, improving adjacent roads and inter- sections necessitated by development, reduces the County's secondary road fund. e e FINANCE Support the position of VML/VACO to grant localities authority to adopt a meals and lodging tax or support the extension of the same taxing authority to urban immune counties that now exists for cities. Rationale: Urban counties are subject to the same fiscal pres- sures as cities and provide the same number and type of services. There no longer exists any distinction between the types of local services that can be offered by a governing body in either a city or immune county. Support legislation which would distribute to localities a portion of the rolling stock tax on railroads and interstate trucking companies. Rationale: The personal property value of railroad cars and interstate trucks is currently assessed by the SCC and all revenues are retained by the State Treasury. A legislative sub-committee is considering distributing a portion of that income to localities as is done by all other southeastern states based on a formula that includes railroad and interstate highway mileage. Oppose legislation that would mandate annual minimum salary increases for teachers. Rationale: Legislators from Tidewater have offered legislation that would require localities to grant minimum annual salary increases to teachers. This kind of legislation ignores the varying fiscal needs of different localities and represents an attempt by the General Assembly to usurp a traditional policy decision that should be made by local elected officials. e GENERAL GOVERNMENT Support legislation to extend police powers to the Director of the Juvenile Detention Home. Rationale: The Code very explicitly defines the duties of Super- intendents of State Learning Centers for juveniles and grants police powers to those superintendents. Directors of Detention Centers lack such defined powers even though the Detention Home is caring for the same type of violent juveniles. -2- Amend the Code to require all trucks carrying trash or debris to be covered at all times. Rationale: Because of the large size of Chesterfield and the relative Iow density, garbage collectors spend a considerable amount of each day carrying their collections to County landfills. In order to safely keep all trash and debris within the truck, all garbage and trash trucks should be required to cover their loads while traveling within the County. -3- CHESTERFI ELD COUNTY BOARD OF SUPERVISORS AGENDA k.
