[5:52] Over the course of its

[5:53] long history, the mount olive

[5:54] baptist church congregation has

[5:55] navigated through rough seas,

[5:56] dark nights and is faced the

[5:57] tempest and many storms, but

[5:58] through adult they learn to

[6:38] football player, obviously not

[6:38] in statute.

[6:39] Meaning is a pastor you get to

[6:40] be face of the congregation,

[6:41] but in reality he represents

[7:07] amount all the baptist church

[7:08] and whose shoulders I now stand

[7:15] upon.

[7:16] With the assistance of the

[21:42] loved spending time here with

[21:44] you all.

[21:44] Friday marks six months since

[21:50] he passed.

[21:52] human being and as a public

[21:57] servant others centered.

[21:57] When he asked you how are you,

[22:04] how are you doing, he actually

[22:11] or your circumstances, you are

[22:14] a constituent of his or even

[22:15] somebody he worked with or were

[22:22] new that he was able to help.

[22:22] He would step in to try to make

[22:29] a difference.

[22:30] Jerry understood what my needs

[22:31] are, what my once are do not

[22:40] about the other.

[22:47] understood that effectiveness

[22:47] mattered.

[23:59] everyone.

[23:59] We are moving to agenda item

[24:00] number five and that is the

[24:01] consent agenda.

[24:10] I wanted to

[24:11] see if there was anyone on the

[24:12] board who would like to pull

[24:13] anything off from the consent

[24:13] agenda?

[24:17] Supervisor vega

[24:18] .

[24:18] >> Yesli Vega: thank you MADAM

[24:31] All right.

[24:32] Seeing none I would like to get

[24:33] a motion.

[24:40] Hold on.

[24:41] You don't know what I could be

[24:42] asking for a motion for.

[24:43] I would like a motion from 5a

[24:53] through 5m and 50 through 5e.

[25:33] , q, r we have been

[25:34] talking about the courts

[25:39] district and we are in the

[25:45] phases where the pain starts.

[25:45] We are going to start seeing a

[25:46] lot of movement of dirt,

[25:47] trucks, construction signs.

[25:48] Again, if you don't need to be

[25:50] in the area of prince william

[25:54] pkwy.

[25:55] , find alternates.

[25:56] I hate to put it that way but

[25:57] this is going to get on until

[26:04] we get the construction done.

[26:05] Of course you know it is high

[26:06] which is a single-point urban

[26:06] interchange.

[26:06] Copyright.

[26:07] Okay.

[26:07] That road is a major

[26:10] construction road because we

[26:12] heard and I heard that when we

[26:17] do developments we don't

[26:17] improve.

[26:18] You are going to see parkway

[26:21] going under many ville.

[26:22] We have already had one town

[26:22] hall meeting on this and we

[26:23] will be having another real

[26:25] soon because the next phase we

[26:27] are in.

[26:33] If you are not on my email list

[26:34] I would ask for folks listening

[26:35] in, shoot me an email, go to

[26:38] the website neabsco news.Org.

[26:38] Get on the list so you can come

[26:41] out in here all the changes

[26:43] that have taken place and

[26:43] really be a part of the

[26:48] discussion, any questions you

[26:49] have that we could answer.

[26:50] This is going to take a couple

[26:52] of years, but at the end of all

[26:53] of this he will be -- what we

[26:55] have.

[27:07] Thank you MADAM Chair.

[27:08] >> Chair Jefferson: does anyone

[27:09] else want to comment on

[27:10] anything?

[27:53] are voting to authorize the

[27:54] public hearing.

[27:55] Still remain

[27:56] fundamentally opposed to this

[27:57] initiative even starting so I

[27:58] wanted to see that for the

[27:58] record.

[27:59] >> Chair Jefferson: all right.

[27:59] Thank you.

[28:00] Are there any additional

[28:00] speakers?

[28:01] If not I would like to get a

[28:03] motion on 5n.

[28:06] seconded.

[28:37] in the board room please take a

[28:37] seat.

[28:45] So going to have -- and I

[28:46] apologize if I cannot make out

[28:49] the handwriting.

[28:50] Leave fay jones, brian landrum,

[29:00] ron sachs, chris bley zia and

[29:01] so everyone a few general

[29:07] pointers make sure you speak

[29:08] quickly and to the microphone.

[29:09] much time you have.

[29:13] name on the magisterial

[29:17] district where you reside.

[29:18] >> good afternoon.

[29:19] My name is leif e jones and I

[29:23] reside down the street.

[29:24] I am new to this

[29:29] .

[29:29] The only comment that I wanted

[29:34] to make is in reference to I

[29:39] guess 7f with the kings grove

[29:40] that is potentially going to be

[29:40] here on

[29:43] the corner.

[29:44] My only concern with that is

[29:49] the entry way to that facility

[29:54] .

[29:55] I would recommend the only

[29:58] entryway to that facility is

[30:01] going to be on black forest

[30:02] lane, not prince will then

[30:03] parkway because prince will

[30:13] deem are quite is already a

[30:13] backlog trying to

[30:14] be in that

[30:14] right-hand lane.

[30:15] That is really my only comment

[30:16] .

[30:17] I don't know how the process

[30:19] works but I did want to give my

[30:22] opinion on that.

[30:28] >> Chair Jefferson: generally I

[30:28] will just give you -- the

[30:29] public comment time you can

[30:30] speak.

[30:32] What you are referring to is

[30:32] 7f.

[30:34] We have a separate process for

[30:42] that

[30:43] .

[30:44] If you want you can speak again

[30:44] and

[30:44] that time or if you are

[30:45] finished with the comments and

[30:46] are satisfied you don't have to

[30:47] speak again.

[30:51] >> that is my, unless you speak

[30:52] to something.

[30:52] >> Chair Jefferson: I like

[30:53] that.

[30:56] Next speaker.

[31:00] >> brian landrum, gainesville

[31:02] district

[31:02] .

[31:03] MADAM Chair and supervisors,

[31:07] thank you for the opportunity

[31:08] to speak today on behalf of the

[31:09] architecture review board about

[31:10] agenda item 10 c the request

[31:30] for $85,000 out of cycle

[31:31] funding to develop the overlay

[31:32] district design guidelines.

[31:33] Thank you to the board for your

[31:34] commitment to historic

[31:35] preservation including the

[31:36] recent purchase of ongoing

[31:37] rehabilitation of the williams

[31:38] goss house and the net

[31:39] distiller home and thank you

[31:39] supervisor for your

[31:40] leadership

[31:41] securing that funding and

[31:41] moving the project forward.

[31:43] it's a once in a generation

[31:44] opportunity to preserve an

[31:45] incredible piece of our shared

[31:45] history.

[31:46] Our county should be proud of

[31:47] frank washington on the

[31:48] thoroughfare community for

[31:51] working diligently to ensure

[31:52] future generations have the

[32:02] opportunity to experience the

[32:03] rich history represented there.

[32:04] These design guidelines are

[32:05] critical piece of the overlay

[32:06] district project and out of

[32:07] cycle funding is key to

[32:09] ensuring it stays on schedule

[32:10] pickup respect we request you

[32:11] approve item 10 c on the out of

[32:11] cycle

[32:11] funding request for

[32:12] the

[32:12] thoroughfare design guidelines.

[32:13] Thank you very much.

[32:14] >> Chair Jefferson: thank you.

[32:16] Next speaker, please.

[32:17] >> Public Speaker: I'm chris,

[32:19] brentsville district.

[32:20] Thanks for letting me speak and

[32:21] I do want to apologize to the

[32:22] board.

[32:35] I am a debbie downer.

[32:36] I haven't been at

[32:36] these meetings

[32:37] because I do travel a lot.

[32:38] But I just recently got laid

[32:38] off.

[32:39] As well as many other people in

[32:39] virginia.

[32:40] I just want to mention to the

[32:41] board, priorities.

[32:41] E are all

[32:45] prince with them county

[32:45] residents.

[32:46] And I say that because I get

[32:47] all these mailings and flyers

[32:51] about data centers, personal

[32:54] property taxes

[32:55] .

[32:56] I'm hoping the board has

[32:57] priorities over this because

[32:59] now I am hearing data centers

[33:02] are taking public locations

[33:08] like retail or nurseries and

[33:08] providing lots of money to

[33:15] build data centers.

[33:16] I didn't know that was prince

[33:17] williams goals or directives.

[33:18] I'm sorry I didn't make any

[33:18] meetings because I am

[33:19] supporting my family every day.

[33:21] There's a lot of state

[33:22] .

[33:26] I flight a lot.

[33:27] And I know there are probably a

[33:28] lot of other objectives the

[33:29] board can work with other

[33:33] politicians.

[33:34] I am sure we can get rid of

[33:37] property tax in general we know

[33:43] it goes in the general fund.

[33:44] And I just want the board to

[33:49] put priorities that the prince

[33:50] william property tax.

[33:51] These are all the things you

[33:52] mentioned running for office so

[33:54] I would really like that to be

[33:54] a priority.

[33:55] Thank you for your time.

[34:00] >> Chair Jefferson: thank you.

[34:01] Next speaker, please.

[34:02] >> Public Speaker: I'm ron.

[34:08] I live in the -- district and I

[34:09] guess I am talking to all of

[34:09] the

[34:10] board members.

[34:10] Ecently we

[34:13] lost a bus stop.

[34:14] >> Chair Jefferson: can you

[34:17] move the microphone closer?

[34:23] We can barely hear you.

[34:24] >> Public Speaker: anyway, we

[34:26] lost a bus stop.

[34:31] Two weeks

[34:36] , woodbridge high

[34:37] school, fred lynn student and

[34:38] occoquan elementary

[34:42] students.

[34:42] They did not have any

[34:43] information that they had

[34:47] eliminated this bus stop.

[34:49] i tried to get in contact with

[34:50] them

[34:52] .

[34:54] Their computers were down

[34:57] .

[34:58] And radical with the telephone.

[35:00] No response

[35:04] .

[35:05] I don't understand think they

[35:06] been there for 60 years.

[35:07] I

[35:15] collect cans and I go ahead and

[35:16] give the money to the kids when

[35:17] they get off the bus at the end

[35:18] of the school year so they want

[35:20] opportunity to go swimming at

[35:22] hammer mill pool.

[35:23] This year was six dollars

[35:24] .

[35:28] But anyway, one of the problems

[35:31] is the eliminated.

[35:32] They are not going to put it

[35:36] back.

[35:37] I know we got information a

[35:40] couple years ago that they are

[35:40] changing the times of the bus

[35:41] stop

[35:42] .

[35:49] It was on the paperwork of MR.

[35:50] Lint.

[35:50] He is the principle of occoquan

[35:55] school.

[35:55] He is not the one that

[35:56] initiates this.

[35:57] Do you want everyone to call

[35:57] MR. Lint the principal about

[35:58] the bus stop times?

[36:01] It's crazy.

[36:03] Whoever the entity was was made

[36:03] anonymous.

[36:07] We want the bus

[36:09] stop back.

[36:11] What is a child's life worth.

[36:17] And then have people going up

[36:17] to kilby.

[36:18] They are

[36:18] walking up these hills

[36:19] I see, snowy.

[36:22] I don't understand

[36:22] .

[36:26] have you ever pushed a carriage

[36:30] up a hill with two kids?

[36:36] I mean, it's difficult.

[36:37] I don't know how you feel about

[36:38] it, but can you even read and

[36:40] write?

[36:41] The declaration of independence

[36:43] was written

[36:43] .

[36:45] Does no more writing in the

[36:46] public schools.

[36:49] What's going

[36:49] on?

[36:54] I'm blessed I went to a private

[36:54] school.

[36:55] Catholic school.

[36:55] My time is running out.

[36:58] Thank you for the time and good

[37:01] luck on the valley drive.

[37:02] >> Chair Jefferson: thank

[37:02] you so

[37:07] very much.

[37:08] We are going to be moving on to

[37:09] promote public

[37:09] comment time and

[37:10] I ask people, if you would

[37:21] like to please have a seat.

[37:38] MADAM Chair, back to you.

[37:40] so very much.

[37:41] We are going to move to agenda

[37:42] item number seven and that is

[37:45] public hearings.

[37:46] Before I opened the public

[37:46] hearings I want to see if

[37:47] anyone on the dais had any

[37:49] questions or wanted any

[37:54] clarification.

[37:55] Supervisor boddye.

[38:24] interest.

[38:25] >> Kenny Boddye: before the

[38:53] so fairly, objectively, and in

[38:53] the public interest.

[38:54] >> Chair Jefferson: thank you

[38:55] so very much.

[38:55] Supervisor franklin?

[38:56] >> Margaret Angela Franklin:

[38:57] well, I wanted to separate out

[38:57] items.

[38:58] I'm not sure if we are there

[38:58] yet.

[38:59] Want to separate out 7c.

[39:06] >> Chair Jefferson: all right.

[39:06] All right.

[39:08] Actually, what I'm going to do

[39:10] is I'm going to open the public

[39:12] hearing for everything and then

[39:17] we will take 7c separately.

[39:17] all right.

[39:18] I'm going to open the public

[39:22] hearing for seven a through f

[39:22] .

[39:23] Right now I have two people

[39:27] signed up to speak.

[39:28] The rules are you have similar

[39:29] to public comment time you have

[39:29] three

[39:30] minutes.

[39:38] The timer is going to be on the

[39:38] screen.

[39:39] If you're speaking as a

[39:40] representative for a recognized

[39:41] group, 501(C)(3), you have up

[39:43] to five minutes

[39:43] .

[39:44] I have two people currently

[39:44] signed up.

[39:45] Again, state your name and

[39:46] where you resign.

[39:56] I have miriam and paula.

[39:57] If you both make your way up to

[40:01] the back.

[40:07] Right over there.

[40:09] >> my name is miriam.

[40:12] I am here to speak on the kings

[40:15] grove development.

[40:16] >> Chair Jefferson: if you

[40:22] could step into the microphone.

[40:23] >> Public Speaker: I am a

[40:24] homeowner in the reeds prospect

[40:27] hoa which is across the street

[40:28] from where this development is

[40:28] being planned.

[40:29] I have been a homeowner there

[40:35] for 12 years

[40:35] .

[40:35] We have concerns about a

[40:36] growing trend we have seen in

[40:38] residential development in

[40:39] which the integration of rental

[40:40] apartment units into hoa under

[40:45] the broad a misleading label of

[40:48] multifamily housing units

[40:48] .

[40:49] We believe some developers MAY

[40:54] be using the terminology to

[40:55] obscure their true intent,

[40:55] introducing rental units to

[40:56] traditionally owner-occupied

[41:02] communities.

[41:03] This practice not only misleads

[41:04] potential homeowners but can

[41:05] also compromise their voting

[41:05] rights and influence within the

[41:07] hoa.

[41:07] So this is what has happened

[41:08] with reeds prospect which is

[41:11] right across the street.

[41:12] It was originally developed to

[41:12] include 200 condo unit

[41:13] .

[41:17] That is what was approved by

[41:20] the board of supervisors in 314

[41:21] single family homes and

[41:24] townhouses

[41:24] .

[41:25] Those units were later

[41:25] transitioned into apartment

[41:29] units

[41:30] , but the documents that

[41:31] were drafted by the same law

[41:32] firm representing this

[41:32] development here

[41:32] , which is the

[41:37] law firm of walsh belushi,

[41:38] billy and walsh, drafted our

[41:39] documents in such a misleading

[41:42] manner so that now the 200

[41:46] apartment units have 200 votes

[41:47] in our hoa which are cast by

[41:50] one person.

[41:50] So the entire time I lived

[41:57] there are hoa has been

[41:58] effectively, practically, and

[41:59] absolutely controlled by the

[42:00] interests of one person.

[42:01] Our hoa has put together

[42:06] several collective actions

[42:07] because we do have more votes

[42:08] in the 200 but you can imagine

[42:12] in our community we are a group

[42:13] of homeowners, many thorough

[42:15] workers for folks who don't

[42:22] have english as their first

[42:23] language so that kind of

[42:24] collective action problem.

[42:25] This represents a petition we

[42:26] have worked to get signed as

[42:27] well as proxy votes to try to

[42:29] reclaim our voting rights this

[42:33] has been met

[42:34] , led by an hoa

[42:34] attorney which they have hired

[42:38] using their own funds to spend

[42:42] $70,000 rejecting our efforts

[42:42] this year.

[42:43] So my concern regarding this

[42:43] community.

[42:48] We met last year with kenny

[42:48] boddye office.

[42:49] They said there's nothing we

[42:50] can do to help with this

[42:51] because this is a ready been

[42:52] developed and plan.

[42:56] My concern is having forward

[42:57] when I look at the description

[43:02] of these multifamily units

[43:02] , two

[43:03] over to mixed with attached

[43:04] townhouses, my concern is you

[43:08] guys protect homeowners who

[43:08] make sure they can have the

[43:12] same thing happened to them but

[43:13] this is not a business deal for

[43:15] us as it is the apartments,

[43:16] this is our personal

[43:17] investment.

[43:18] >> Chair Jefferson: next

[43:28] speaker, please.

[43:29] >> Public Speaker: I and paula

[43:34] kaiser with occoquan district.

[43:35] I just want to discuss the

[43:39] kings grove.

[43:40] Last time kings grove was

[43:47] brought to the planning meeting

[43:48] there were several people who

[43:48] spoke on the problem, the

[43:51] issues with the schools

[43:52] , the

[43:52] traffic, congestion on the

[43:55] parkway.

[43:56] What I am here for is about the

[43:58] dog park being adjacent to the

[44:05] well house that is next door

[44:05] .

[44:06] I haven't heard on any of these

[44:07] issues.

[44:10] I don't know what is planned to

[44:18] address any of those issues.

[44:19] That is just what I wanted to

[44:19] say.

[44:20] Thank you.

[44:21] >> Chair Jefferson: thank you

[44:22] so very much.

[44:22] Do we have anyone signed up to

[44:26] speak remotely?

[44:27] >> Andrea Bailey: I have one

[44:27] person.

[44:31] Do we have anyone on remote?

[44:31] >> we do not have anyone on

[44:31] remote.

[44:32] >> Andrea Bailey: okay.

[44:35] Thank you.

[44:36] >> Chair Jefferson: I would

[44:37] like to close the public

[44:42] hearings for seven a through f.

[44:43] I would also like to request I

[44:44] believe the first speaker said

[44:44] she had a petition.

[44:45] If you would like to share it

[44:46] with the clerk?

[44:48] Okay.

[44:49] Thank you.

[44:53] All right.

[45:04] For agenda item seven I have a

[45:05] request to pull off 7c and e.

[45:06] And so we are going to take

[45:07] those up individually and

[45:11] separately.

[45:12] Does anyone on the board have

[45:12] questions because if not I

[45:13] would like to get a motion for

[45:14] 7a, b, e and f

[45:15] .

[45:15] >> Andrea Bailey: a move.

[45:16] >> Kenny Boddye: second.

[45:17] >> Chair Jefferson: properly

[45:18] moved and seconded.

[45:22] Going to discussion.

[45:23] >> Kenny Boddye: I didn't know

[45:24] where to jump in on that but I

[45:27] wanted to give -- to the

[45:28] response.

[45:29] >> Chair Jefferson: sorry.

[45:31] This is the consolidated land

[45:34] use

[45:34] .

[45:35] These are things that I've gone

[45:39] through expedited.

[45:40] So I would like to go ahead and

[45:41] have our discussion.

[45:51] Does any -- supervisor vega and

[45:52] then boddye.

[45:52] >> Yesli Vega: I have a few

[45:56] questions on item 7a.

[45:57] >> Chair Jefferson: hold on.

[45:58] Had asked earlier if anyone

[46:01] from the dais at any questions

[46:01] .

[46:05] Not a big deal.

[46:06] Would you like to withdraw your

[46:11] chance to speak?

[46:12] Supervisor boddye.

[46:12] >> Kenny Boddye:

[46:13] I just wanted

[46:14] to speak very quickly on 7f.

[46:18] Good to see you again.

[46:19] I know how you had more time I

[46:21] understand and I hear you.

[46:22] I know our offices and working

[46:27] with our state delegates on the

[46:28] state to try to work their

[46:30] common interests and I know it

[46:30] is frustrating because there's

[46:31] only so much we can do so I

[46:36] wanted to say first I hear you.

[46:37] But I know something you've

[46:38] been here before on is the

[46:39] signal light to speak to one of

[46:40] my other constituents, the

[46:44] traffic backing up all the way

[46:45] to the intersection there is

[46:46] real

[46:46] .

[46:51] We would be hopefully fixing

[46:52] that with the old bridge rd.

[46:52] In

[46:53] prince william parkway

[46:53] realignment.

[46:54] But with this will be putting

[46:57] in the signal that is supposed

[46:58] to have been there for

[46:59] quite a

[46:59] while.

[47:01] It will warrant it based on the

[47:01] traffic generation from kings

[47:06] grove

[47:06] .

[47:07] I know a lot of people who want

[47:08] to come out of reeds prospect

[47:11] and turn left currently are

[47:12] taking their lives into their

[47:16] own hands by doing so.

[47:16] Flashing yellow light, I don't

[47:17] know why they did that but we

[47:17] are aware we are with this

[47:20] kings grove project it would be

[47:23] a fully signalized intersection

[47:24] that would allow people to

[47:27] safely move through that more

[47:36] freely and more safely.

[47:37] This project does deliver 239

[47:37] homes in a time people are

[47:38] struggling to find homes that

[47:38] are affordable.

[47:42] It does obtain 24 new dwelling

[47:43] units per gefilte counties

[47:43] goals

[47:53] a mixed-use development.

[47:54] On that side of prince william

[47:55] pkwy. It is all commercial pick

[47:56] on the prospect site it's a

[47:56] mixed-use.

[47:57] On this site it is all

[47:58] commercial.

[48:00] When we talk about mixed use we

[48:00] are actually bringing the

[48:01] housing to that side to the

[48:02] parkway to deliver a real

[48:02] mixed-use area in that part.

[48:10] This makes a small but

[48:11] important step toward making

[48:12] the county more affordable and

[48:13] livable for close to this

[48:14] employment center here, close

[48:14] to retail, shopping.

[48:15] There are bookends on the

[48:25] parkway side and the hoadley

[48:25] side.

[48:26] This is the kind of place we

[48:27] want to see more housing.

[48:27] I wanted to say thank you to

[48:28] the applicant in

[48:29] planning staff

[48:30] working through this one and I

[48:31] will of course be supporting

[48:31] it.

[48:32] thank you MADAM Chair.

[48:33] >> Chair Jefferson: supervisor

[48:35] bailey?

[48:35] >> Andrea Bailey: if you could

[48:36] remind me who hold item 7e.

[48:37] >> Chair Jefferson: supervisor

[48:38] vega.

[48:38] >> Andrea Bailey: okay.

[48:46] Thank you very much.

[48:47] >> Chair Jefferson: all right.

[48:48] I don't see any other

[48:48] questions.

[48:49] We are going to take a vote for

[48:55] 7a, b, d and f.

[49:00] >> vote unanimously when we are

[49:03] going to move to agenda item

[49:03] 7c.

[49:04] Did you have any questions

[49:11] supervisor vega?

[49:11] That was c?

[49:12] Supervisor franklin.

[49:12] Okay.

[49:12] All right.

[49:15] So would like to entertain a

[49:22] motion for 7c did you have a

[49:24] question?

[49:25] >> George Stewart: I was going

[49:29] to make a motion.

[49:30] >> Chair Jefferson: it has been

[49:32] properly moved with and

[49:32] seconded.

[49:33] Supervisor franklin?

[49:34] >> Margaret Angela Franklin:

[49:39] generally have not been

[49:40] supportive of creating or

[49:40] expanding homebase gun

[49:41] businesses

[49:41] .

[49:43] And suggest keeping with that.

[49:46] I will be voting no

[49:46] .

[49:47] >> Chair Jefferson: any further

[49:47] discussion?

[49:52] I am simply going

[49:53] to abstain from this one.

[49:58] I recognize the applicant has a

[49:59] lot of support.

[49:59] And giving this more or less to

[50:01] keep a precedent.

[50:02] So I will go ahead and call for

[50:13] the vote.

[50:19] >> motion passes 5/2

[50:20] supervisors bailey and franklin

[50:21] voting no, chair jefferson

[50:28] abstaining from the vote.

[50:29] >> Chair Jefferson: thank you

[50:32] very much in the other item is

[50:32] 7e.

[50:33] >> Tom Gordy: moved to approve.

[50:34] >> Andrea Bailey: second.

[50:36] >> Chair Jefferson: any

[50:37] questions where discussion on

[50:37] this one?

[50:38] Supervisor vega.

[50:39] >> Yesli Vega: earlier this

[50:40] year we had a presentation from

[50:42] the chief and I know supervisor

[50:42] gordy, there has been some

[50:43] concern in regards to access to

[50:45] emergency services

[50:52] .

[50:53] And so I wanted at least some

[50:54] type of clarification in

[50:56] regards to what the plan is

[50:58] .

[50:59] It is my understanding based on

[51:01] the staff report that this does

[51:02] follow outside the four-minute

[51:02] travel time for emergency

[51:03] response and I just want to

[51:05] know what the plan is in

[51:09] regards to that.

[51:09] Not sure if it is for you or

[51:19] for alice to respond to.

[51:20] >> I will say we have a new

[51:21] fire station planned.

[51:22] It is programmed that is going

[51:33] to help mitigate this probably

[51:34] in the time from its

[51:34] construction for this

[51:35] development.

[51:35] It is on wellington road not

[51:36] more than two miles from its

[51:37] location that is going to help

[51:38] us solve the problem in the

[51:38] area.

[51:39] But I note it is pretty much in

[51:41] this entire area.

[51:45] We do desperately need more

[51:46] fire support and I know the

[51:46] chief, that is a priority for

[51:50] him.

[51:51] He has been working on getting

[51:52] the and the news station on

[51:53] wellington road is going to

[51:54] help us get that.

[51:57] >> Chair Jefferson: all right.

[51:58] Thank you so very much.

[51:59] If there is no further

[52:02] discussion I would like to get

[52:02] a motion.

[52:03] Sorry, we already have one on

[52:03] the floor

[52:03] .

[52:05] Since there is no further

[52:09] discussion, let's go ahead and

[52:11] take the vote.

[52:16] >> vote unanimous

[52:17] .

[52:19] >> Chair Jefferson: all right.

[52:19] Thank you so very much.

[52:20] We are now going to go to

[52:23] agenda item 8 and that is

[52:48] county executive time.

[52:51] >> MS. Roble:

[52:57] >> MR. Shorter: good afternoon.

[52:58] This is a bit of a surprise to

[52:59] the team but I wanted to use

[53:00] this as an opportunity to

[53:01] really give recognition to our

[53:03] transportation transformation

[53:04] management office.

[53:07] All of them behind me here in

[53:13] the board chambers of.

[53:13] They have two years ago this

[53:14] office was created.

[53:15] And I will tell you

[53:16] , they have

[53:20] become a model team and a model

[53:21] organization.

[53:21] We are getting calls from

[53:22] jurisdictions around the

[53:23] country and certainly here in

[53:24] the commonwealth about the work

[53:28] of transformation.

[53:29] They been responsible

[53:32] initiating 41 countywide

[53:34] projects

[53:35] .

[53:37] Nine community-based projects

[53:40] around the county and have been

[53:45] doing absolutely phenomenal

[53:45] work.

[53:45] I wanted to take this

[53:50] opportunity to recognize them

[53:51] as they are transitioning out

[53:52] in a new group of leaders will

[53:53] be taking over in

[53:55] transformation management.

[54:00] The team has also transformed

[54:01] key functions modernizing

[54:05] processes and permitting land

[54:06] acquisition, planning,

[54:07] procurement, transportation

[54:08] projects and community

[54:08] outreach.

[54:13] The team is also

[54:14] supported the launch of offices

[54:15] such as sustainability,

[54:17] community safety.

[54:20] We are very close as we get to

[54:26] FEBRUARY to coming back to the

[54:26] board for your consideration

[54:27] with the department of

[54:28] transportation and capitol

[54:29] construction, which will merge

[54:30] much of our construction and

[54:32] capitol efforts.

[54:33] The team has been absolutely

[54:34] phenomenal making much of that

[54:45] happened and supporting it

[54:46] across the county and they have

[54:47] strengthened the customer

[54:48] experience by mapping

[54:49] processing and permitting,

[54:49] planning libraries, public

[54:51] works in the clerks office.

[54:52] Really wanted to express

[54:59] appreciation for the great work

[54:59] they have done with a small

[55:00] token and I have one

[55:01] certificate for each of the

[55:02] leaders within pmo.

[55:02] I'm going to read the

[55:06] certificate.

[55:09] Why don't you all come on down

[55:18] .

[55:19] [Applause]

[55:19] So MADAM Chair, this

[55:20] certificate reads "certificate

[55:21] of appreciation and recognition

[55:22] of your outstanding dedication

[55:24] and leadership to the

[55:27] transformation management

[55:32] office during 2024 through 2025

[55:33] and this is signed by me and I

[55:38] have one for each of our

[55:39] phenomenal leaders in

[55:43] transformation management.

[55:44] Lisa, do you want to say a few

[55:44] words?

[55:51] >> on behalf of myself and

[55:52] team, I want to thank you for

[55:55] your innovative idea of this

[55:57] opportunity.

[56:02] We have had a great two years

[56:03] getting to know the county

[56:03] more, working across

[56:03] departments

[56:04] .

[56:06] We loved being able to enhance

[56:11] the customer experience and

[56:12] offer meaningful and impactful

[56:13] solutions and really just we

[56:22] will take these tools and

[56:23] skills back on are really

[56:24] excited and thankful and really

[56:25] excited it's continuing and

[56:25] that the need two for the

[56:26] office is valued and have

[56:27] really been beneficial.

[56:29] Thank you all

[56:33] .

[56:33] Thank you.

[56:34] >> Kenny Boddye: MADAM Chair.

[56:35] >> Chair Jefferson: supervisor

[56:38] boddye

[56:38] .

[56:39] >> Kenny Boddye: I would be

[56:39] remiss if I didn't mention for

[56:40] the publix benefit that there

[56:41] is a podcast.

[56:50] If people didn't

[56:51] know, they actually have their

[56:51] own podcast.

[56:52] It is for the good content so I

[56:53] want to put it out for public

[56:53] benefit.

[56:54] Thank you.

[56:55] >> Chair Jefferson: all right.

[56:55] thank you so very much.

[56:56] I'm laughing because you are

[56:59] tall.

[57:00] >> MR. Shorter: thank you all

[57:09] very much.

[57:09] You can have a seat.

[57:10] We are going to be

[57:11] transitioning to a new timo.

[57:12] Mandy has been named our next

[57:13] transformation management chief

[57:14] and she will be starting next

[57:14] month.

[57:17] Again, I wanted to use this as

[57:17] an opportunity to say thank

[57:18] you.

[57:28] It's not every day and of

[57:29] course we have the members of

[57:30] the t mo here, but I will tell

[57:31] you dozens and dozens of staff

[57:32] across the county who had to

[57:32] backfill them in the agency

[57:33] also had two years of training

[57:37] and professional development so

[57:38] want to thank all of them for

[57:39] serving on those active roles

[57:40] as well

[57:40] .

[57:41] While I am here I wanted to go

[57:43] ahead and provide the update I

[57:44] always provide different cxo

[57:44] time.

[57:49] There were seven new

[57:50] directives issued in our last

[57:55] meeting.

[57:56] Staff was directed to work with

[57:57] the towing advisory board and

[58:02] return in six months with a

[58:02] report on data points in any

[58:03] safety concerns or other

[58:08] impacts related to the updates

[58:09] to the towing ordinance this

[58:10] directive was assigned to the

[58:11] police department.

[58:16] We were asked to provide a

[58:16] report one year from now.

[58:17] That includes an analysis of

[58:23] the effectiveness of the noise

[58:24] ordinance.

[58:24] Any violations found, any

[58:26] potential revisions to the

[58:26] noise ordinance that needs to

[58:29] be made on this was assigned to

[58:43] our public works department.

[58:44] Three, we were asked to develop

[58:45] an inventory of all boards,

[58:46] committees, commissions,

[58:47] advisory and/or working groups

[58:48] established by the board via

[58:49] resolution or directive.

[58:50] This directive was assigned to

[58:51] the clerk of the board.

[58:56] We

[58:56] were asked to identify land to

[58:57] purchase in the woodbridge

[58:58] magisterial district suitable

[58:59] to the development of the

[59:01] community recreation center and

[59:02] bring back appropriate

[59:03] regulations for the board

[59:03] consideration but this

[59:04] directive was assigned to parks

[59:09] and ffm.

[59:10] Five, we were asked to develop

[59:11] recommendations for

[59:12] establishing a county owned and

[59:13] maintained history museum

[59:14] picked this directive was

[59:29] assigned to parks

[59:30] , facilities,

[59:30] fleet management and to

[59:31] planning.

[59:31] Six, we were asked to develop

[59:32] and present a framework for the

[59:33] establishment of an

[59:34] agricultural and forest reserve

[59:35] picked this directive was

[59:35] assigned to finance budget,

[59:36] planning and public works.

[59:37] And then finally, we were asked

[59:38] to follow up to previous

[59:39] directive to expedite the

[59:40] exploration of the elimination

[59:41] of the datacenter opportunity

[59:45] zone overlay district in this

[59:46] directive was assigned to

[59:50] planning.

[59:51] There were three directives

[59:55] closed since our last meeting.

[59:56] Response to explore options for

[59:57] establishing additional

[1:00:00] community gardens on county

[1:00:01] owned property in the follow-up

[1:00:05] directive to add a potential

[1:00:05] botanical garden at fackler

[1:00:07] park was sent earlier this

[1:00:11] month to the board.

[1:00:15] And finally response to develop

[1:00:15] a recommendation for a new

[1:00:19] framework to leverage the power

[1:00:20] the arts was provided to the

[1:00:23] board last week.

[1:00:24] Yes, so those were all the

[1:00:37] directives opened and closed.

[1:00:37] I would also like to express

[1:00:38] real excitement about an

[1:00:39] opportunity.

[1:00:39] And I will have the chief to

[1:00:40] come up and talk a bit about

[1:00:41] this for a minute or two

[1:00:41] because it is such a big deal

[1:00:42] for our county.

[1:00:43] The county fire rescue system

[1:00:43] is introducing two major

[1:00:47] lifesaving advancements here in

[1:00:48] the county.

[1:00:48] Nce I got word

[1:00:49] that we had gotten to this

[1:00:51] point, I wanted the chief to

[1:00:57] come up and talk about this

[1:00:58] because I really wanted the

[1:00:59] board to have awareness of it

[1:01:00] but also our community to have

[1:01:00] awareness of it.

[1:01:00] Chief?

[1:01:08] Are you around?

[1:01:09] >> I appreciate you raising the

[1:01:12] podium before I got here

[1:01:12] .

[1:01:12] Good afternoon.

[1:01:22] Tom, your fire chief.

[1:01:23] MADAM Chair, members of the

[1:01:24] board, I am always excited.

[1:01:25] I am always so proud of the

[1:01:26] career volunteers staff of the

[1:01:28] amazing fire rescue system.

[1:01:29] Even more so when are able to

[1:01:30] give them the resources they

[1:01:34] need to literally save lives of

[1:01:35] our residents and citizens.

[1:01:36] Our two programs I want to talk

[1:01:37] about.

[1:01:37] The first will we will be

[1:01:40] introducing ultrasound and that

[1:01:47] means we would be able to look

[1:01:48] inside of patients.

[1:01:48] E will

[1:01:49] look at whether or not they are

[1:01:50] having congestive heart

[1:01:59] failure, whether it is a

[1:02:00] copd

[1:02:01] issue or they have a collapsed

[1:02:01] lung.

[1:02:02] Also be able to see if their

[1:02:02] heart has actually stopped.

[1:02:03] All of those are incredibly

[1:02:04] helpful in the field.

[1:02:05] The second, just as exciting is

[1:02:06] we will be delivering whole

[1:02:06] blood in the field.

[1:02:08] That means

[1:02:09] when an individual has a

[1:02:15] dramatic injury and is bleeding

[1:02:16] out, right now we don't have

[1:02:17] the ability unless we call

[1:02:17] another community to provide

[1:02:18] whole blood to that person on

[1:02:20] scene.

[1:02:21] We will have the ability around

[1:02:24] the first week of DECEMBER

[1:02:24] .

[1:02:24] And I can tell he

[1:02:30] unquestionably

[1:02:31] , that will save

[1:02:31] the lives of people in this

[1:02:32] community who currently die

[1:02:37] because we can't do it.

[1:02:37] I'm also excited because we are

[1:02:38] able to do this without asking

[1:02:40] for resources and that's always

[1:02:40] a good spot to be in.

[1:02:41] As all

[1:02:45] of you know, we've been looking

[1:02:46] to try to be efficient with our

[1:02:46] ems model.

[1:02:47] We are continuing down that

[1:02:49] road

[1:02:49] .

[1:02:53] The last two things is we could

[1:02:54] not have possibly gotten this

[1:03:03] done if you haven't approved

[1:03:03] doctor.

[1:03:04] [Name] To be our medical

[1:03:05] director.

[1:03:05] Most do you know I have a fair

[1:03:06] amount of energy.

[1:03:06] I'm not sure where he gets his

[1:03:07] from.

[1:03:08] He is bringing forward amazing

[1:03:09] things for us.

[1:03:15] This is a perfect example of

[1:03:16] what we have been able to

[1:03:17] accomplish with this medical

[1:03:18] director.

[1:03:19] I really enjoy working with

[1:03:19] him.

[1:03:27] In the last piece is this

[1:03:28] saturday a volunteer station on

[1:03:29] f st. We are going to be having

[1:03:30] a blood drive because you can't

[1:03:30] give out whole blood if you

[1:03:31] don't have blood.

[1:03:33] The good news is saturday from

[1:03:34] 8:00to 1:00.

[1:03:35] The chief and I will be the

[1:03:41] first to know the good news is

[1:03:42] if you wait yourself beforehand

[1:03:45] and after you will lose weight.

[1:03:46] I really encourage everyone

[1:03:48] listening to this to come out

[1:03:50] from 8:00to 1:00 to our blood

[1:03:52] drive

[1:03:53] .

[1:03:54] And a special shout out to.

[1:03:56] [Name] Helping with this.

[1:04:08] [Applause]

[1:04:09] >> MR. Shorter: absolutely

[1:04:09] amazing.

[1:04:09] Ou can understand

[1:04:10] why I wanted to have the chief

[1:04:11] deliver that message.

[1:04:16] It is such great news for our

[1:04:16] community and for all of those

[1:04:17] who will be helped by our

[1:04:24] system in the future.

[1:04:31] I wanted to quickly recognize

[1:04:32] if you employees for their

[1:04:33] outstanding work.

[1:04:34] Big thanks to our planning

[1:04:35] office in communication and

[1:04:35] engagement for creating a small

[1:04:36] area plan hub on the pwc works

[1:04:40] platform

[1:04:41] , on the pwc works

[1:04:41] website.

[1:04:42] We are going to have the

[1:04:42] next

[1:04:43] time we are together on

[1:04:46] DECEMBER 2, the planning

[1:04:47] office talk about what's

[1:04:50] happening on pwc works and

[1:04:53] highlight advancements they

[1:04:53] have made.

[1:05:01] Not just the smaller implants

[1:05:02] but there been some other

[1:05:02] advancements we want to

[1:05:03] highlight.

[1:05:03] Last but certainly not least, I

[1:05:04] want to give a big shout out to

[1:05:08] all of those involved in

[1:05:09] responding to the gas leak

[1:05:11] incident last friday.

[1:05:12] I know that a few of you will

[1:05:16] probably talk this as well at

[1:05:17] some point.

[1:05:18] The event necessitated in the

[1:05:29] evacuation of 65 townhomes

[1:05:29] leading to the need to

[1:05:30] immediately shelter 82 people,

[1:05:31] 11 of whom were children at

[1:05:32] woodbridge high school on

[1:05:32] friday.

[1:05:34] 30 adults

[1:05:36] , two children were

[1:05:37] further assisted by further

[1:05:38] emergency management and red

[1:05:41] cross services and they could

[1:05:42] not return home after the

[1:05:43] emergency repair due to the

[1:05:47] loss of heat.

[1:05:48] We believe the certainly thanks

[1:05:52] and recognition are in order

[1:05:54] .

[1:05:55] There are so many agencies that

[1:05:55] had a roll to play in this

[1:05:56] process.

[1:06:00] We were able to accomplish what

[1:06:00] we believe was one of the

[1:06:01] largest if not the largest

[1:06:06] emergency evacuations that has

[1:06:07] happened for the purpose of how

[1:06:08] to this hazardous material

[1:06:14] relief in recent history

[1:06:14] .

[1:06:15] We did that seamlessly and

[1:06:16] humanely and I wanted to

[1:06:17] recognize all the agencies

[1:06:17] involved.

[1:06:18] Are prince william county

[1:06:49] happened last friday.

[1:06:51] [Applause]

[1:06:51] That is all for me.

[1:06:55] >> Chair Jefferson: hold on

[1:06:56] supervisor franklin?

[1:06:57] >> Margaret Angela Franklin: a

[1:06:59] quick question.

[1:07:02] I know a month ago you sent our

[1:07:04] campaign that included a law of

[1:07:07] important data points

[1:07:07] .

[1:07:08] I was also wondering whenever

[1:07:12] you decide to schedule an

[1:07:13] actual presentation for the

[1:07:14] board if it can include our

[1:07:20] marketing strategy for the --

[1:07:22] whatever we are calling it.

[1:07:25] The raccoon.

[1:07:26] >> MR. Shorter: we absolutely

[1:07:33] will

[1:07:33] .

[1:07:34] They MAY or MAY not be

[1:07:34] appearance.

[1:07:35] I think we are planning to come

[1:07:36] in DECEMBER with a presentation

[1:07:37] and an update to the board.

[1:07:38] >> Margaret Angela Franklin:

[1:07:38] that is helpful.

[1:07:39] i want to make sure we are

[1:07:40] marketing in various parts of

[1:07:47] the county, various modes

[1:07:48] .

[1:07:48] I haven't seen a lot but I'm in

[1:07:49] the right places.

[1:07:50] I'm certainly up and down route

[1:07:53] 1. I MAY have questions about

[1:07:54] where exactly are we doing our

[1:08:03] targeting and how effective is

[1:08:04] the actual campaign.

[1:08:05] I know the litter crew is doing

[1:08:06] the work but we need to raise

[1:08:07] awareness to residents so that

[1:08:08] we all do better

[1:08:08] .

[1:08:11] >> MR. Shorter: happy to

[1:08:11] include that.

[1:08:12] >> Chair Jefferson: we did

[1:08:16] speak about that and I

[1:08:16] , for the

[1:08:16] record.

[1:08:17] I did not put her up to ask

[1:08:20] about trash.

[1:08:21] But I want everyone to know

[1:08:24] whenever you pick up a piece of

[1:08:25] litter, the spirit of trashy

[1:08:33] lives within you.

[1:08:33] I couldn't help it.

[1:08:33] Love the

[1:08:34] mom jokes.

[1:08:45] behalf of the board lisa as she

[1:08:47] was a part of the team

[1:08:47] .

[1:08:52] One of the things I got scared

[1:08:53] about was who is going to take

[1:08:54] care of the crc.

[1:08:55] And she took it with her.

[1:08:57] She had two new assignments to

[1:09:01] work with her team and I really

[1:09:02] appreciate the delivery of the

[1:09:05] crisis receiving center as you

[1:12:44] request and answer any

[1:12:55] questions you MAY have.

[1:12:56] Our mission statement explains

[1:12:58] our commitment to our values

[1:12:59] ,

[1:13:00] profession, and the community

[1:13:01] we serve

[1:13:12] .

[1:13:13] Who we are.

[1:13:13] The

[1:13:14] sheriff's office the oldest

[1:13:15] numbers agency established in

[1:13:15] prince william county.

[1:13:23] The police department was

[1:13:23] established in 1970 to provide

[1:13:24] law enforcement duties picked

[1:13:25] the prince william manassas

[1:13:26] regional jail operation begun

[1:13:29] in 1982.

[1:13:29] All court functions remain with

[1:13:30] the sheriff's office, but we

[1:13:34] collaborate with all public

[1:13:35] safety agencies to maintain the

[1:13:38] highest level of service for

[1:13:44] our community.

[1:13:48] This slide is a summary of how

[1:13:53] we serve our mandated primary

[1:13:54] responsibilities and how we

[1:13:55] assist other law enforcement

[1:14:02] agencies.

[1:14:10] The most important position on

[1:14:11] our organization chart is at

[1:14:12] the top.

[1:14:18] The citizens and community we

[1:14:19] serve.

[1:14:20] additionally the chart allows

[1:14:20] everyone to see the chain of

[1:14:23] command and understand the

[1:14:24] structure and

[1:14:24] functions of our

[1:14:35] office.

[1:14:36] Courthouse security.

[1:14:38] Providing courthouse security

[1:14:39] is one of the many mandated

[1:14:44] responsibilities of a sure.

[1:14:46] The court services division is

[1:14:51] responsible upholding the

[1:14:52] integrity of the judicial

[1:14:52] process provisions office

[1:14:54] provides 24 hours a committee

[1:14:55] in and around the judicial

[1:14:56] center complex

[1:14:56] .

[1:15:03] 300,137 individuals who entered

[1:15:05] the courthouse

[1:15:11] Approximately 90 people who

[1:15:11] entered the courthouse and

[1:15:14] therefore court purposes

[1:15:14] .

[1:15:16] Some of them are uncomfortable

[1:15:17] entering and being in the

[1:15:17] courthouse

[1:15:18] .

[1:15:21] That is why I'm so proud of my

[1:15:22] deputies who do an outstanding

[1:15:25] job reading, screening, and

[1:15:25] assisting

[1:15:29] individuals, entering

[1:15:30] the courthouse to make them

[1:15:33] They also assist the physically

[1:15:36] impaired and ensure businesses

[1:15:38] know how to get to their

[1:15:39] destination.

[1:15:49] in and assist them.

[1:15:52] Deputies off often respond to

[1:15:56] unusual circumstances and

[1:15:57] situations in and around the

[1:15:58] courthouse and are often the

[1:16:01] first responders when someone

[1:16:02] suffers a medical emergency

[1:16:02] .

[1:16:06] Some officers have alarms in

[1:16:12] case of an emergency.

[1:16:13] We work with other agencies in

[1:16:14] the courthouse to implement

[1:16:15] evacuation procedures

[1:16:15] .

[1:16:16] Deputies escort individuals and

[1:16:22] families to ensure their safe

[1:16:28] departure from the courthouse.

[1:17:26] rank, including me and the

[1:17:26] captains of rain, we must all

[1:17:30] participate to ensure every

[1:17:31] courtroom is properly staffed

[1:17:32] and advanced preparation is

[1:17:37] required

[1:17:37] .

[1:17:38] In other words, we plan days

[1:17:39] before how we are going to

[1:17:41] manage our courtrooms

[1:17:41] .

[1:17:42] two deputies are assigned to

[1:17:46] each circuit court room.

[1:17:47] Some cases require additional

[1:17:52] deputies for security.

[1:17:52] Jury movement and other

[1:17:53] additional screening of

[1:17:54] courtroom attendees before

[1:17:59] court begins frequently maria

[1:18:00] signs from other duties to

[1:18:03] assist in our courtrooms

[1:18:03] .

[1:18:06] I will talk later about the

[1:18:11] presentation about the deputies

[1:18:12] assistant and his impact on the

[1:18:14] duties and responsibilities are

[1:18:18] to assist us with court

[1:18:19] responsibilities, we utilize

[1:18:21] off-duty jail officers reserve

[1:18:27] deputies.

[1:18:28] Our general district court past

[1:18:31] five courtrooms

[1:18:31] .

[1:18:32] If one deputy is assigned to

[1:18:38] each courtroom the deputies

[1:18:39] assist in this courtroom

[1:18:40] receive most of the assistance

[1:18:42] from the deputies assigned to

[1:18:43] the deployment and inmate

[1:18:47] movement.

[1:18:48] Juvenile and domestic relations

[1:18:52] court is our third court.

[1:18:54] Uvenile domestic relations

[1:18:59] court has six courtrooms.

[1:18:59] Ne

[1:19:00] deputy assigned to each one of

[1:19:02] those courtrooms

[1:19:02] .

[1:19:03] A new law went into effect JULY

[1:19:06] 1 permitting the use of

[1:19:12] juvenile restraints unless

[1:19:12] approved by a judge.

[1:19:13] We now have a court order to

[1:19:21] request a special hearing to

[1:19:22] use restraints there's no

[1:19:22] guarantee our request is going

[1:19:23] to be granted and we have had

[1:19:33] some interesting experiences in

[1:19:33] supervising our juveniles.

[1:19:33] People

[1:19:34] are waiting to appear in

[1:19:36] court frequently asked for

[1:19:36] assistance involving security

[1:19:39] and safety in the courthouse.

[1:19:40] Many people we escort to the

[1:19:41] vehicles are involved in cases

[1:19:46] out of juvenile court.

[1:19:47] Are controls in a dispatch

[1:19:51] .

[1:19:52] The sheriff's office public

[1:19:53] safety telecommunications for

[1:19:58] calls for service and the

[1:19:59] judicial center complex called

[1:20:00] transportation and other units

[1:20:01] communicate with the

[1:20:04] dispatchers.

[1:20:05] Process deputies, the ones out

[1:20:08] in our community communicate

[1:20:09] with prince william county

[1:20:12] dispatchers

[1:20:13] .

[1:20:14] They receive and process all

[1:20:14] incoming calls for

[1:20:16] this office.

[1:20:17] Our public safety

[1:20:18] telecommunications required to

[1:20:23] complete dispatch basic

[1:20:23] academy.

[1:20:26] Additionally they maintain a

[1:20:30] level of certification through

[1:20:34] a virginia criminal information

[1:20:37] network.

[1:20:38] They monitor over 200 cameras

[1:20:41] to assist courthouse deputies

[1:20:44] pick they monitor and dispatch

[1:20:45] 50 emergency alarms throughout

[1:20:49] the courthouse so a lot of

[1:20:50] offices have those in their

[1:20:52] offices and our dispatcher

[1:20:57] monitors those

[1:20:58] .

[1:20:59] They also checked the movement

[1:21:00] of inmates in the courthouse

[1:21:03] throughout the courthouse on a

[1:21:05] daily basis

[1:21:08] .

[1:21:09] Our employment personnel are

[1:21:20] assigned to vertical implement

[1:21:20] to receive inmates from the

[1:21:21] adult detention center from

[1:21:22] court.

[1:21:23] inmates are then escorted to

[1:21:23] and

[1:21:25] from courtrooms within the

[1:21:25] courthouse.

[1:21:26] Inmates remain in our custody a

[1:21:27] return to the adult detention

[1:21:29] center to serve a sentence,

[1:21:30] remain in custody pending a

[1:21:31] court date or they MAY be

[1:21:31] released.

[1:21:33] They also take into custody

[1:21:36] persons committed to adult

[1:21:39] detention center and process

[1:21:40] and for them to the adult

[1:21:42] detention center

[1:21:42] .

[1:21:46] In fy 25 this section escorted

[1:21:46] 30,000 inmates to and from the

[1:21:49] courthouse to the adult

[1:21:54] detention center.

[1:21:55] The live scan section is

[1:21:56] responsible for mandated

[1:21:57] processing of section sexual

[1:22:05] offenders for persons convicted

[1:22:05] of certain offenses are

[1:22:06] processed and dna is collected

[1:22:07] and sent to the state forensic

[1:22:09] laboratory.

[1:22:09] Persons released by the police

[1:22:12] on a summons for violations are

[1:22:17] processed by this section after

[1:22:25] their court appearances.

[1:22:26] They also assist people

[1:22:27] requesting fingerprints for job

[1:22:27] applications

[1:22:27] .

[1:22:31] We also conduct background

[1:22:31] checks for citizens applying

[1:22:32] for

[1:22:32] concealed weapons.

[1:22:36] In fy

[1:22:37] 25 we conducted 6002 at a 24

[1:22:38] background checks

[1:22:38] .

[1:22:40] The background checks done to

[1:22:42] assist the clerk of the court

[1:22:45] issuing concealed weapons

[1:22:45] permits

[1:22:55] .

[1:22:56] Our operations division and

[1:22:57] some of our core functions

[1:22:58] .

[1:23:05] Civil process deputies are very

[1:23:06] busy.

[1:23:07] Deputies assigned to our civil

[1:23:07] process of legal documents

[1:23:08] within prince william county

[1:23:09] and the city of manassas and

[1:23:13] manassas park.

[1:23:14] Most we serve are posted on the

[1:23:18] property, but some require

[1:23:19] personal service and are often

[1:23:22] times consuming.

[1:23:23] There are several documents we

[1:23:26] serve the required two

[1:23:29] deputies.

[1:23:30] In fy 25 we serve 73,522

[1:23:35] .

[1:23:39] To the document are

[1:23:39] convictions.

[1:23:43] To complete the execution of an

[1:23:46] eviction requires at least

[1:23:51] three visits to the residence

[1:23:52] even though we get one document

[1:23:53] that is going to require

[1:23:54] several visits to that

[1:23:58] residence for can fy 25 we

[1:24:07] executed 3091 evictions with

[1:24:07] four deputies.

[1:24:07] Most deputies I

[1:24:08] have on my eviction squad.

[1:24:09] We also executed 172 letters

[1:24:14] and conducted for sheriff

[1:24:15] sales.

[1:24:16] Also in fy 25 to assist the

[1:24:16] eviction squad because they

[1:24:21] need assistance to get their

[1:24:21] work done, the civil process

[1:25:04] deputy served 512 if they are

[1:25:07] in the area.

[1:25:13] Sometimes we are in areas where

[1:25:13] there is no police presence and

[1:25:14] when car comes out the deputy

[1:25:15] would assist the police

[1:25:15] department.

[1:25:19] Sometimes the deputies are the

[1:25:25] first ones on the scene.

[1:25:25] Funeral escorts are mandated.

[1:25:26] It is not a mandated

[1:25:32] responsibility.

[1:25:32] you sheriff it is absolutely

[1:25:34] necessary to provide the

[1:25:38] service to our community.

[1:25:39] We get a lotta nice letters

[1:25:46] from the citizens about how.

[1:25:47] I especially like the letters

[1:25:49] who come from people who visit

[1:25:49] our community are here from a

[1:25:52] funeral and see how we provide

[1:25:52] this service for our community.

[1:25:58] In fy 25 this section performs

[1:26:02] 333 funeral escorts.

[1:26:03] Providing funeral escorts sends

[1:26:06] a message to our community and

[1:26:10] businesses about who we are and

[1:26:11] as an agency in prince william

[1:26:17] county in the city of manassas

[1:26:17] and manassas park.

[1:26:18] When discussing earlier there

[1:26:19] is a minute deputies from other

[1:26:19] duties

[1:26:22] , the difference we

[1:26:24] normally pole to assist us

[1:26:24] ,

[1:26:26] they are our civil process

[1:26:32] deputies.

[1:26:33] Transportation to and from

[1:26:35] criminal justice facilities is

[1:26:39] a challenging daily process,

[1:26:42] mainly because of the distance

[1:26:43] to other jails and facilities

[1:26:47] in the state.

[1:26:47] Next we have temporary

[1:26:48] detention orders.

[1:26:52] By virginia code, all persons

[1:26:53] committed to facilities for

[1:27:00] treatment are transported by

[1:27:01] primary law

[1:27:02] enforcement agencies

[1:27:03] in that jurisdiction for prince

[1:27:03] william county it is all our

[1:27:04] police department.

[1:27:07] Before the law changed about 10

[1:27:07] years ago it was the sheriff's

[1:27:10] office responsibility.

[1:27:11] If the person is in crisis, is

[1:27:14] a juvenile and eight number

[1:27:15] eight detention order is issued

[1:27:21] in the juvenile is medically

[1:27:22] cleared for transport, it is

[1:27:23] the police departments

[1:27:24] responsibility to transport the

[1:27:25] person in crisis.

[1:27:26] By state law, the petition is a

[1:27:30] subpoena notifying the parent

[1:27:32] or guardian of the hearing date

[1:27:32] and time location.

[1:27:36] This petition can only be

[1:27:42] served by a deputy sheriff.

[1:27:43] Regardless of when this occurs,

[1:27:44] the sheriff's office agrees to

[1:27:51] do all juvenile transport for

[1:27:52] our police department is office

[1:27:53] assists the police department

[1:27:58] transporting persons in crisis.

[1:27:59] The other times during the week

[1:27:59] my office agreed to do to

[1:28:00] career eat detention order

[1:28:04] transports.

[1:28:05] Our agency agreed help because

[1:28:07] I know our police department

[1:28:08] are busy and when you have a

[1:28:12] transport such as a person in

[1:28:13] crisis it takes to officers to

[1:28:17] do the transports.

[1:28:18] So we assist them to keep the

[1:28:19] officers on the street and I

[1:28:21] have deputy sheriffs on call so

[1:28:22] we can do the transport for our

[1:28:25] police department.

[1:28:29] In fy 25 this section a civil

[1:28:29] transport totaled 4107 hours

[1:28:30] spent.

[1:28:34] In fy 25 we assisted the police

[1:28:36] department during civil

[1:28:37] transports totaling 3599.

[1:28:41] Starting this fiscal year the

[1:28:42] courts are now sending court

[1:28:44] orders to our offices to

[1:28:55] transport -- in prince within

[1:28:55] county.

[1:28:59] These transports are statewide

[1:29:00] and require at least two

[1:29:01] deputies to perform the

[1:29:02] transports.

[1:29:06] So far we have done 47 of these

[1:29:17] transports this fiscal year.

[1:29:18] By mandate the sheriff's office

[1:29:19] is responsible for post

[1:29:20] commitment hearing transports

[1:29:21] to include transports to mental

[1:29:22] hospitals in the commonwealth.

[1:29:27] Please keep in mind for

[1:29:28] cautionary reasons and safety

[1:29:33] reasons, each transport

[1:29:34] requires two deputies.

[1:29:35] 80 percent of our transports

[1:29:40] are done with two deputies.

[1:29:40] I do not feel comfortable

[1:29:46] sending one deputy on a

[1:29:46] transport by themselves who

[1:29:48] deputies frequently travel to

[1:29:49] facilities all across the

[1:29:55] commonwealth of virginia.

[1:29:56] Depending on what time they

[1:29:56] leave prince william county and

[1:29:58] distance traveled, they often

[1:29:59] stay overnight and return the

[1:30:02] following day which means they

[1:30:03] are not available for duty the

[1:30:04] next day

[1:30:07] .

[1:30:21] Warrants the warrant section

[1:30:22] handles all support imposed

[1:30:23] eviction warrants who can fy 25

[1:30:24] the warrant section serves 773

[1:30:25] warrants.

[1:30:25] We work very closely with the

[1:30:26] adult probation office to

[1:30:27] apprehend and serve probation

[1:30:27] violations.

[1:30:30] We serve court order violations

[1:30:31] and failure to appear in court

[1:30:32] violations as well.

[1:30:34] Court

[1:30:35] order executions are very

[1:30:38] powerful report example, a

[1:30:39] child removal order requires a

[1:30:44] minimum of four deputies to

[1:30:45] transfer the child to the

[1:30:46] custody of the other parent or

[1:30:48] guardian.

[1:30:53] Those situations can be

[1:30:54] emotional, time-consuming and

[1:31:03] it requires good communication

[1:31:03] skills and patient.

[1:31:04] Dditionally the section is

[1:31:05] responsible for out-of-state x

[1:31:06] traditions.

[1:31:06] If the extradition involves

[1:31:08] flying

[1:31:08] , deputies are required

[1:31:10] to be trained and certified to

[1:31:16] fly while owned.

[1:31:17] Are deputies ensure the average

[1:31:19] of 30 traffic and one is

[1:31:19] .

[1:31:23] In other words, we are on the

[1:31:28] street a law and we see people

[1:31:29] violating the law speeding my

[1:31:30] deputies occasionally will

[1:31:33] write a speeding summons

[1:31:43] .

[1:31:47] Our administration division and

[1:31:48] core functions of our

[1:31:52] administration division.

[1:31:56] Our human resources division is

[1:31:57] responsible for recruitment and

[1:32:05] our application processing.

[1:32:06] Training all deputies on law

[1:32:07] enforcement is a certified and

[1:32:10] trained with law enforcement

[1:32:13] certification., deputies are

[1:32:14] also certified in civil process

[1:32:15] and courtroom security.

[1:32:19] Some

[1:32:20] deputies our jails are defined

[1:32:20] to maintain certification.

[1:32:23] Our deputies also mandated to

[1:32:27] attend 40 hours of in-service

[1:32:31] training every two years.

[1:32:32] We have several other training

[1:32:33] requirements that exceed an

[1:32:39] additional 80 hours

[1:32:39] .

[1:32:40] We have two deputies

[1:32:41] permanently assigned to the

[1:32:44] criminal justice academy.

[1:32:45] Accreditation, we were the

[1:32:47] first agency in the

[1:32:50] commonwealth to be accredited

[1:32:55] through the virginia law

[1:32:56] enforcement professional

[1:32:58] standards commission.

[1:33:02] We just completed our seventh

[1:33:03] accreditation assessment and

[1:33:04] should receive our

[1:33:08] certification certificate in

[1:33:08] DECEMBER.

[1:33:09] This section also handles all

[1:33:28] of our internal affairs.

[1:33:34] As of today -- okay.

[1:33:38] Community services

[1:33:38] .

[1:33:40] Let me back up.

[1:33:41] Our community services

[1:33:44] .

[1:33:45] We start with project

[1:33:45] lifesaver.

[1:33:53] We placed bracelets on seniors

[1:33:54] with alzheimer's and autistic

[1:33:55] children who tend to wander or

[1:33:55] run away.

[1:33:58] The bracelets emits a signal on

[1:33:59] a frequency and it allows us to

[1:34:03] locate a missing client.

[1:34:07] Revisit our clients to ensure

[1:34:08] the bracelet is properly in

[1:34:09] place and to change the

[1:34:12] batteries.

[1:34:13] Most of our clients refer to us

[1:34:21] because the police department

[1:34:22] as properly responded to the

[1:34:22] residence because a person is

[1:34:23] lost or walked away and the

[1:34:26] referred most people to apply

[1:34:29] for applications for us to come

[1:34:30] out and put them on the project

[1:34:30] lifesaver.

[1:34:36] We use our tracking equipment

[1:34:37] to locate missing clients.

[1:34:38] All police station time

[1:34:38] tracking equipment that can be

[1:34:39] utilized by the sheriff's

[1:34:40] office personnel or respondent

[1:34:45] in 2022 we had 33 are lifesaver

[1:34:46] program.

[1:34:50] Currently we 54 clients.

[1:34:57] 28 adults, 26 children in the

[1:34:58] program for gaza today we have

[1:34:59] 15 pending applications

[1:35:03] , and I

[1:35:04] do not want to say no to any

[1:35:05] family who wants to put a

[1:35:12] family member on project

[1:35:13] lifesaver.

[1:35:14] Unlike some jurisdictions we do

[1:35:14] not charge a fee for families

[1:35:15] to be on the program.

[1:35:19] Also, I have a senior program.

[1:35:20] restarted the safe program

[1:35:24] about eight years ago because

[1:35:27] we learned of a senior that

[1:35:28] failed and it was a tragic

[1:35:33] ending and we thought that we

[1:35:34] could do something to help our

[1:35:35] seniors.

[1:35:36] We provide medical equipment to

[1:35:37] seniors who cannot afford it at

[1:35:39] no cost.

[1:36:01] In 2022 -- for our community.

[1:36:04] I get some good comments from

[1:36:09] our seniors because they get a

[1:36:10] joy out in the deputies coming

[1:36:11] to the house spending time with

[1:36:11] them

[1:36:14] , talking to them about

[1:36:18] security issues but it makes a

[1:36:18] difference with our seniors.

[1:36:22] Argon safety program

[1:36:23] , argon

[1:36:23] safety program is properly

[1:36:28] programmed for children.

[1:36:29] In fy 20 find this program is

[1:36:31] presented to over 5000 students

[1:36:31] .

[1:36:35] In 2023 this program receive

[1:36:37] the virginia association of

[1:36:38] counties achievement award

[1:36:39] .

[1:36:44] Our rate aggression and defense

[1:36:45] program are currently we

[1:36:46] conduct about two classes a

[1:36:49] year.

[1:36:49] It's difficult to schedule

[1:36:56] these classes, but I want to

[1:36:57] see if we can do at least two

[1:36:58] classes next year.

[1:37:10] Unclaimed residents here come

[1:37:11] the only agency in the county

[1:37:12] that handles unclaimed

[1:37:12] residence.

[1:37:13] The primary law enforcement

[1:37:14] agency is responsible for

[1:37:14] residence.

[1:37:15] It was the sheriffs

[1:37:16] responsibility until the law

[1:37:19] changed about 11 years ago.

[1:37:20] Because I had a policy in place

[1:37:25] to comply with the law, I agree

[1:37:26] because I represent not only

[1:37:26] prince william county but

[1:37:27] manassas and manassas park to

[1:37:31] continue this responsibility.

[1:37:32] In fy 25 we received about 26

[1:37:34] cases.

[1:37:35] Each case requires about 20

[1:37:37] hours of work.

[1:37:39] Those are include locating

[1:37:42] relatives working with -- and

[1:37:45] to obtain a court order to

[1:37:47] close out the case.

[1:37:51] We also conduct a yearly

[1:37:52] ceremony to honor and provide a

[1:37:56] dignified burial for our

[1:38:01] unclaimed deceased residents

[1:38:04] .

[1:38:06] Our civil disturbance union.

[1:38:11] In 2020 200 demonstrators

[1:38:12] attempted to enter the

[1:38:15] courthouse and we persuaded the

[1:38:19] crowd to leave and prevented

[1:38:21] any confrontation.

[1:38:22] I think some your board members

[1:38:23] might have been there

[1:38:24] that day.

[1:38:28] I am very proud of how officers

[1:38:34] reacted to our demonstrators

[1:38:34] .

[1:38:35] When we talk about treating

[1:38:36] people with dignity and

[1:38:36] respect, this is a prime

[1:38:38] example of how we should treat

[1:38:45] people in those situations.

[1:38:46] We were not prepared to handle

[1:38:46] a group of that size so to

[1:38:48] prevent future issues I sent

[1:38:49] staff to training and purchased

[1:38:51] equipment to manage any

[1:38:55] disturbances that MAY occur.

[1:38:56] I would be remiss if I did not

[1:39:01] mention the incredible work on

[1:39:01] deputies do to support special

[1:39:03] olympics.

[1:39:04] Each year we hold a tournament.

[1:39:10] We raise 50 $6000 to support

[1:39:11] special olympics.

[1:39:16] We hosted two golf tournaments.

[1:39:17] We used those funds to buy a

[1:39:19] drone and other equipment

[1:39:32] needed for the program.

[1:39:33] This is an agency basis.

[1:39:33] Bensalem county revenues

[1:39:45] include charges for service.

[1:39:46] Charges for service are three

[1:39:47] percent of our funding so we

[1:39:47] can see how much we get from

[1:39:48] the compensation board.

[1:39:49] The

[1:39:50] city of manassas, manassas

[1:39:51] park.

[1:39:55] Currently our full-time staff

[1:39:57] 99 part-time sworn, 5.5

[1:39:57] .

[1:40:00] We have 17

[1:40:07] , 121.5 total.

[1:40:08] Also, we have seven reserve

[1:40:13] deputies that come in to assist

[1:40:13] us.

[1:40:14] We require them to come in once

[1:40:19] a month.

[1:40:20] I think CHAIRMAN Vega is on our

[1:40:21] reserve deputies that comes in

[1:40:22] hopes of sometimes.

[1:40:40] Thank you.

[1:40:41] Requesting $15,000 no fte to

[1:40:41] assist us with additional

[1:40:45] equipment to support project

[1:40:52] lifesaving.

[1:40:53] We 15 people applications and

[1:40:54] waiting to be processed.

[1:40:55] I have been wanting to say no

[1:41:03] to any of these clients -- in

[1:41:04] case something happens we can

[1:41:08] find it.

[1:41:09] We also will be asking uniform

[1:41:11] stuffer 12 fte.

[1:41:15] We also asked for a leading

[1:41:16] business service specialist in

[1:41:29] our communications analysts.

[1:41:29] I talked about some of them

[1:41:30] earlier in the transportation

[1:41:32] and court services division to

[1:41:34] address inmate jury and chris's

[1:41:38] transportation.

[1:41:39] We certainly need extra

[1:41:40] deputies to help us in

[1:41:40] transportation

[1:41:42] .

[1:41:48] Course one of the big issues is

[1:41:49] i do not want to san juan

[1:41:50] deputy on a transport with a

[1:42:04] person that is in crisis.

[1:42:05] Uniform stop operation impacts.

[1:42:06] Deputies are frequently

[1:42:10] reassigned from other essential

[1:42:11] duties are going to mention

[1:42:12] pulling people from the civil

[1:42:14] process to come here and help

[1:42:18] us in our courtrooms

[1:42:18] , that's

[1:42:23] because we have a law and

[1:42:24] trials that require more than

[1:42:25] two deputies in the courtroom.

[1:42:26] To get additional help optical

[1:42:27] from other areas to come into

[1:42:29] assist that.

[1:42:35] Also we had to pull from the

[1:42:36] adult detention center to use

[1:42:46] those off-duty to assist us.

[1:42:47] Deputies often juggle multiple

[1:42:48] high-risk duties increasing

[1:42:49] fatigue and safety.

[1:42:49] When I mentioned deputies have

[1:42:50] to travel long distance other

[1:42:51] facilities to do the transport,

[1:42:52] a lot of times they are tired

[1:42:53] when they get back and we can't

[1:42:54] use them so it has an impact on

[1:42:59] our staffing.

[1:43:00] Also, when I talked about the

[1:43:01] hours a mandated training we

[1:43:03] are required to do with 40

[1:43:04] hours mandated but we have

[1:43:06] other hours a training

[1:43:08] required.

[1:43:10] For example, each deputy has to

[1:43:14] be trained and be certified in

[1:43:39] case they have to use it.

[1:43:40] Some of the operational

[1:43:42] benefits increased case

[1:43:42] faulting.

[1:43:43] We look at a number of cases

[1:43:49] have a court

[1:43:50] .

[1:43:51] We talked about the legislative

[1:43:51] change.

[1:43:52] One of the legislative changes

[1:43:54] was in juvenile court

[1:43:57] .

[1:44:01] that legislative change

[1:44:02] requires us to have one

[1:44:07] deputies because as I mentioned

[1:44:08] earlier the unpredictable

[1:44:08] actions of juvenile sometimes

[1:44:09] they have to make sure the

[1:44:11] deputies on site.

[1:44:15] We had injuries restrained

[1:44:16] juveniles in our court so to

[1:44:19] prevent those things we need

[1:44:20] extra deputies in our juvenile

[1:44:23] courts.

[1:44:24] Also mentioned in the hallways

[1:44:25] a lotta people they are in

[1:44:27] juvenile court they simply do

[1:44:34] not like each other and threats

[1:44:35] are made and we are asked to

[1:44:36] come in

[1:44:36] .

[1:44:40] Certainly we have to do that to

[1:44:41] protect everyone in the

[1:44:46] courthouse.

[1:44:47] Also high-profile trials

[1:44:48] require greater security.

[1:44:48] Sometimes we have to double

[1:44:55] screen people going in to make

[1:44:56] sure everyone is safe and make

[1:44:57] sure no one is carrying devices

[1:44:58] that could interfere with court

[1:44:59] proceedings.

[1:45:00] That requires extra deputies

[1:45:22] .

[1:45:22] I want to make sure.

[1:45:24] Me back this one up

[1:45:24] .

[1:45:27] Improve courtroom security

[1:45:28] enables transport for increase

[1:45:32] deputy safety is something I

[1:45:33] want to focus on to make sure

[1:45:34] the board understands the

[1:45:37] importance of having two

[1:46:04] deputies owner transports.

[1:46:09] And establish a dedicated --

[1:46:18] excuse me.

[1:46:19] >> I think we are interfering

[1:46:24] with your progress here, sir.

[1:46:35] >> slide number 18.

[1:46:35] >> thank you.

[1:46:38] Additionally support inventory

[1:46:43] management procurement and

[1:46:43] operations are currently one

[1:46:44] civilian is managing the

[1:46:48] accounts payable those duties

[1:46:49] include purchase orders,

[1:46:52] accounts available, traveler

[1:46:53] funding itineraries,

[1:46:54] expeditions, off-duty detail

[1:46:58] management

[1:46:58] , supply purchases,

[1:47:05] issuing equipment

[1:47:06] , procurement

[1:47:06] allocations.

[1:47:07] In addition we helping

[1:47:08] alleviate the current work load

[1:47:09] to better support the crucial

[1:47:11] functions of our office

[1:47:11] .

[1:47:17] And simply one person has a lot

[1:47:21] to do and basically with work

[1:47:25] and needing in seville and help

[1:47:30] us manage that position.

[1:47:31] Some requesting one civilian

[1:47:32] position to assist in managing

[1:47:34] our request

[1:47:35] , social media,

[1:47:44] graphic designs and it.

[1:47:45] Are service levels performance

[1:47:48] .

[1:47:49] Is easy our cases increased

[1:47:57] from fy 24 from 230 to over

[1:47:57] 240.

[1:47:58] Our security screenings

[1:48:00] increased to 305,000.

[1:48:01] Are is in our courtroom

[1:48:04] facility increased to 4 to

[1:48:07] 7629.

[1:48:08] Police assist.

[1:48:11] Now, when I'm talking about

[1:48:12] most of the hours we have to

[1:48:16] bring in deputies to assist us

[1:48:19] in the courtroom increased to

[1:48:21] 47,000 hours

[1:48:21] .

[1:48:27] Police assist in the hours pick

[1:48:28] these are the hours we spent

[1:48:30] assisting police with our

[1:48:33] temporary detention orders

[1:48:33] .

[1:48:34] And as I mentioned

[1:48:35] , our offices

[1:48:40] want to be committed in the

[1:48:41] assisting our police because we

[1:48:42] know they are busy and we want

[1:48:43] to help them so they don't have

[1:48:51] to leave their duties.

[1:48:52] I want to thank you for

[1:48:53] allowing me to come before you

[1:48:53] today.

[1:48:53] I know it has been a lengthy

[1:48:54] presentation and I apologize

[1:48:59] for it please ask me any

[1:49:00] questions you have.

[1:49:01] >> Chair Jefferson: well, thank

[1:49:02] you so very much for coming

[1:49:03] here and giving us a thorough

[1:49:06] overview of the services and

[1:49:07] everything you provide the.

[1:49:08] I really wanted to focus in on

[1:49:13] something I saw on page 18 and

[1:49:14] 16.

[1:49:14] You don't have to bring it up.

[1:49:18] But you mention you provide

[1:49:19] court order transport to and

[1:49:20] from correctional and medical

[1:49:33] facilities

[1:49:34] .

[1:49:35] And on page 16 you mentioned

[1:49:35] the mental health hearings.

[1:49:36] I'm just curious about the roll

[1:49:37] of the crc.

[1:49:38] Will sheriff's deputies be

[1:49:38] responsible for those

[1:49:39] transports?

[1:49:40] Because some of them I assume

[1:49:40] won't be court order but what

[1:49:41] is your roll working with the

[1:49:41] crc?

[1:49:42] >> our roll by definition that

[1:49:47] when we get the khol's and

[1:49:48] orders, it's our responsibility

[1:49:48] by state code to do those

[1:49:50] transports.

[1:49:51] >> Chair Jefferson: all

[1:49:51] right.

[1:49:52] Supervisor gordy.

[1:49:55] >> Tom Gordy: thank you MADAM

[1:49:55] Chair.

[1:49:56] Just getting an update on the

[1:50:02] case pertaining to our

[1:50:03] district.

[1:50:04] i appreciate the work the

[1:50:04] sheriffs department has been

[1:50:05] doing in supporting the court

[1:50:06] cases that are certainly

[1:50:11] important to our community.

[1:50:12] A couple questions.

[1:50:16] Ith the

[1:50:17] change in law related to

[1:50:18] juvenile defendants on the

[1:50:21] inability to restrain them.

[1:50:24] In terms of transporting, when

[1:50:25] I worked with kids in different

[1:50:26] aspects of my life you could

[1:50:33] never have one child alone with

[1:50:34] another adult.

[1:50:34] Ou always need

[1:50:35] a second but it always required

[1:50:36] 1/3.

[1:50:37] How many people do you actually

[1:50:39] have to have in order to

[1:50:41] transport and secure in

[1:50:46] juvenile defendant between

[1:50:47] while they are in custody of

[1:50:50] the courthouse.

[1:50:50] >> we picked them up at the

[1:50:52] juvenile detention home most of

[1:50:57] the time we tried to send to

[1:50:57] deputies to pick them up.

[1:50:58] If it is only one child we send

[1:51:00] to deputies and we bring them

[1:51:04] to the courthouse for the court

[1:51:04] case.

[1:51:06] Nd wobbly are there we

[1:51:07] put them by themselves.

[1:51:10] We put

[1:51:11] them in over there juveniles

[1:51:14] with obvious reasons.

[1:51:15] One of the things that happened

[1:51:21] , we find out some history on

[1:51:22] the juvenile or if the

[1:51:24] juveniles acting a certain way

[1:51:27] we cannot by law put restraints

[1:51:29] on them

[1:51:29] .

[1:51:33] We have to get a special case

[1:51:36] before the judge and explain

[1:51:37] why we have to put restraints

[1:51:37] on them.

[1:51:40] And they just make

[1:51:41] rent our request

[1:51:47] .

[1:51:48] >> Tom Gordy: in terms of the

[1:51:49] increase of man hours and

[1:51:52] number personnel to facilitate

[1:51:56] this new policy

[1:51:57] .

[1:51:58] What has been the net impact on

[1:52:01] your staffing to meet the

[1:52:01] requirements.

[1:52:03] We know juvenile crime is not

[1:52:04] in decline

[1:52:07] .

[1:52:11] In terms of trying to manage

[1:52:15] under this new regime, what is

[1:52:16] that under your staffing

[1:52:19] requirements?

[1:52:20] >> it required us to bring in

[1:52:21] more deputies to the courtroom

[1:52:22] and we have to pull them from

[1:52:26] other duties to make sure there

[1:52:27] is order in the courtroom.

[1:52:28] Make sure decorum is in the

[1:52:30] courtroom and make sure no one

[1:52:35] gets hurt so it is always

[1:52:35] better to have extra deputies

[1:52:42] to help out.

[1:52:43] >> Tom Gordy: when we look at

[1:52:43] the 12 fte you are looking at,

[1:52:44] how much of that goes to

[1:52:45] helping alleviate some of the

[1:52:46] challenges that have been

[1:52:48] presented because of this new

[1:52:49] law.

[1:52:49] >> I intend about six in the

[1:52:52] courthouse in six in operation.

[1:52:53] As I mentioned earlier about

[1:53:02] the transports we have to do,

[1:53:03] those deputies would be

[1:53:04] assigned to assist with our

[1:53:05] process and transports.

[1:53:06] And of course all the deputies

[1:53:06] am asking for is going to help

[1:53:07] us out with high-profile trials

[1:53:12] and a lot of the court cases we

[1:53:12] have now that require extra

[1:53:13] deputies.

[1:53:17] Extra screening going into the

[1:53:19] court rooms.

[1:53:19] Also, there's a lot of activity

[1:53:23] in the hallways.

[1:53:24] they are there on both sides.

[1:53:24] We want to make sure that

[1:53:27] everyone is safe.

[1:53:30] Occasionally we do have

[1:53:31] disruptions, therefore the

[1:53:32] defense and the defendants

[1:53:42] also.

[1:53:43] >> Tom Gordy: okay.

[1:53:44] On the uniform we know you are

[1:53:45] having to upgrade uniforms

[1:53:45] across your force here can you

[1:53:46] give us more insight into what

[1:53:47] is driving that and how that is

[1:53:50] impacting your budget?

[1:53:50] >> yes.

[1:53:52] We are looking at changing the

[1:53:53] brown uniform to another

[1:53:55] uniform because the brown

[1:53:59] uniforms are so hard to get and

[1:54:01] it is hard to match up the

[1:54:04] colors but they do an

[1:54:06] outstanding job helping us

[1:54:07] , but

[1:54:07] that person is overwhelmed and

[1:54:11] because of all of the

[1:54:17] requirements meeting 1/4

[1:54:17] master.

[1:54:18] Keeping the records, issuing

[1:54:19] the uniforms, replacing

[1:54:22] uniforms and also handling the

[1:54:23] other duties such as overtime

[1:54:25] requirements that we have to

[1:54:26] process

[1:54:29] .

[1:54:30] That person is also responsible

[1:54:38] for that also.

[1:54:39] >> Tom Gordy: thank you.

[1:54:39] Appreciate it.

[1:54:40] >> Chair Jefferson: supervisor

[1:54:40] boddye.

[1:54:41] >> Kenny Boddye: thank you for

[1:54:42] coming before us again.

[1:54:43] Appreciate everything you and

[1:54:44] your team can do to keep folks

[1:54:45] safe all throughout the

[1:54:45] community so I wanted to say

[1:54:46] that.

[1:54:50] I wanted to check in

[1:54:50] with you because

[1:54:50] you're

[1:54:51] obviously asking for more

[1:54:58] positions.

[1:54:59] How has hiring then?

[1:55:00] I know you had vacancies

[1:55:00] previously and have been

[1:55:01] working on that.

[1:55:03] Can you talk about that piece?

[1:55:08] >> filling vacancies is not

[1:55:08] easy.

[1:55:09] We are in a competitive process

[1:55:11] with other chores offices in

[1:55:12] the police department in the

[1:55:12] area.

[1:55:17] We have to be very competitive.

[1:55:18] I have not lowered my standards

[1:55:19] as far as recruiting

[1:55:19] .

[1:55:20] We want to make sure we get the

[1:55:23] best and the brightest to come

[1:55:26] to work

[1:55:26] .

[1:55:28] So it is a challenge

[1:55:29] .

[1:55:32] Our best recruiters are the

[1:55:32] people who work at the

[1:55:34] sheriff's office

[1:55:34] .

[1:55:35] They tell me they want to be

[1:55:41] able to helped me because they

[1:55:43] know what type we want and they

[1:55:44] actually go out and help us

[1:55:47] recruit those types of deputies

[1:55:53] so they want to work with them.

[1:55:54] >> Kenny Boddye: I always love

[1:55:55] it when we are trying to coach

[1:55:56] people from other places as

[1:55:57] opposed to the other way

[1:55:57] around.

[1:55:59] That is great to hear.

[1:56:00] I know we have had difficulty

[1:56:01] in the past.

[1:56:02] We've been trying to help you

[1:56:04] to get us where we need to be

[1:56:04] to make you a lot more

[1:56:07] attractive of an employer

[1:56:07] .

[1:56:08] I'm glad we have been working

[1:56:10] on that.

[1:56:11] Mother question to go in the

[1:56:14] other direction is on the same

[1:56:15] program I really appreciate

[1:56:16] everything you have been doing

[1:56:17] with that.

[1:56:18] Obviously literally lifesaving

[1:56:18] work

[1:56:21] .

[1:56:22] $15,000 I hate to say it.

[1:56:27] Is a very small amount of money

[1:56:28] and that is based on the

[1:56:29] waitlist he said you have your

[1:56:31] car you able to project out and

[1:56:33] tell us how much you MAY need

[1:56:38] with that knowing we have an

[1:56:38] aging population in prince

[1:56:40] william county and chances are

[1:56:43] the folks that we have

[1:56:43] .

[1:56:46] You said 90 something folks on

[1:56:49] it.

[1:56:50] That is underrepresented the

[1:56:53] people who need to be on it.

[1:56:56] Spoke project lifesaver is a

[1:56:56] program I am proud of.

[1:57:01] I don't want to say no to a

[1:57:04] family who put application

[1:57:04] .

[1:57:07] The 15,000 asking for is simply

[1:57:09] an amount to help us by

[1:57:13] additional equipment

[1:57:13] .

[1:57:14] Bracelets and batteries and

[1:57:17] other replacement equipment

[1:57:19] that we need for that program.

[1:57:21] Hopefully to 15,000 would last

[1:57:23] a year

[1:57:23] .

[1:57:27] As I mentioned earlier,

[1:57:28] sometimes when we go to our

[1:57:29] families to replace the

[1:57:33] bracelet, sometimes they get

[1:57:44] damaged and we want to make

[1:57:46] sure we have a good bracelet on

[1:57:46] the families.

[1:57:47] But one of the things I like

[1:57:48] about that program is the

[1:57:49] families like for us to come to

[1:57:49] the residence and visit with

[1:57:50] them.

[1:57:50] The kids absolutely love the

[1:57:51] deputies that come in.

[1:57:52] i get good comments from

[1:57:57] families about how we visit the

[1:57:58] families and the time we spend

[1:57:58] with them.

[1:57:59] So that is important.

[1:57:59] >> Kenny Boddye: I know you

[1:58:00] guys are popular with all age

[1:58:02] groups.

[1:58:03] I brought my son to an event

[1:58:03] different I think around JUNE

[1:58:13] and both of my kids got a lotta

[1:58:14] pictures with him.

[1:58:15] >> we start recruiting early.

[1:58:15] > Kenny Boddye: I don't know

[1:58:16] if my wife would be okay with

[1:58:17] you recruiting my son, but I

[1:58:17] would

[1:58:17] say.

[1:58:18] My last question if you would

[1:58:19] let me

[1:58:21] .

[1:58:22] In terms of the transportation

[1:58:25] piece, you narrowed in on why

[1:58:26] you need the extra folks and

[1:58:30] what have you and I appreciate

[1:58:34] the chair bringing up the

[1:58:36] crisis receiving center because

[1:58:37] the crisis receiving centers

[1:58:38] are established only in prince

[1:58:39] william county

[1:58:40] , how do you

[1:58:43] suspect both from our end but

[1:58:46] also with the crc centers being

[1:58:49] established closer frankly then

[1:58:50] where they have been.

[1:58:51] How do you see that helping you

[1:59:41] in the long run?

[1:59:53] >> Chair Jefferson: thank you

[1:59:54] so very much.

[1:59:55] I don't see anyone else in the

[1:59:55] cupid thank you so very much

[1:59:57] share film and to the people

[1:59:57] you brought out today for your

[1:59:58] team.

[1:59:58] We appreciate you and your

[1:59:59] work.

[1:59:59] >> thank you for allowing me to

[2:00:13] come before you.

[2:00:14] >> MR. Shorter: thank you met

[2:00:14] in turn members of the board.

[2:00:15] again, thank you for the

[2:00:16] presentation and for your

[2:00:17] service to the county.

[2:00:17] I will now ask our clerk jackie

[2:00:52] smith take over.

[2:00:52] >> what did I do?

[2:02:03] Customer

[2:02:04] service in the commonwealth

[2:02:06] always.

[2:02:07] We are professional, we inspire

[2:02:11] combatants, and our customers

[2:02:12] needs are met completely.

[2:02:21] We value our customers

[2:02:23] , the

[2:02:24] taxpayer dollar, our people,

[2:02:25] integrity and teamwork and we

[2:02:26] always remember that we serve

[2:02:28] the people of prince william

[2:02:28] manassas and manassas park.

[2:02:29] When most people think of the

[2:02:33] clerk of the court

[2:02:35] , they think

[2:02:35] of the person sitting left or

[2:02:36] right of the judge taking

[2:02:41] notes, assisting the judge,

[2:02:42] keeping the record but this is

[2:02:43] a small fraction with the clerk

[2:02:44] of the court does.

[2:02:51] Most notable probably for this

[2:02:52] type of meeting as we collect

[2:02:52] our recordation taxes for the

[2:02:53] county.

[2:02:54] Of course we create, maintain,

[2:02:59] and protect the official court

[2:02:59] record.

[2:03:00] We also issued concealed

[2:03:01] handgun permits as you heard

[2:03:02] from the sheriff earlier and we

[2:03:03] are again this year on target

[2:03:05] to produce more concealed

[2:03:05] handgun permits than any other

[2:03:06] jurisdiction in the

[2:03:11] commonwealth.

[2:03:12] We still do it faster than

[2:03:12] anyone else and we do it as

[2:03:13] cheap as you can find in the

[2:03:17] commonwealth.

[2:03:18] It's a service to our

[2:03:23] constituents picked are also

[2:03:24] under more duties described in

[2:03:25] the statute but these are the

[2:03:28] highlights.

[2:03:28] We work with multiple

[2:03:33] government agencies

[2:03:34] .

[2:03:35] Most notably we added fema this

[2:03:35] year.

[2:03:36] They contacted us with interest

[2:03:42] in our self-service kiosk to

[2:03:43] see how they can implement them

[2:03:44] in the federal government to

[2:03:45] benefit their operations.

[2:03:48] And so4 and annual update.

[2:03:53] We support safe and secure

[2:03:54] communities in many initiatives

[2:04:06] for the first is accessibility.

[2:04:07] We operate seals on wheels are

[2:04:08] fully mobile clerks office on

[2:04:09] saturdays once a month to

[2:04:10] provide services to prince

[2:04:10] william county residents as

[2:04:11] well as the residence of the

[2:04:12] two cities in a location

[2:04:13] convenient to them outside of

[2:04:16] normal business hours

[2:04:17] , give us

[2:04:18] a plug our last event is on

[2:04:19] gainesville district from

[2:04:22] 10:00to 1:00

[2:04:22] .

[2:04:23] We also host judicial center

[2:04:27] pop-ups which occur on campus

[2:04:29] after business hours to allow

[2:04:31] people who need to get their

[2:04:37] business done after working a

[2:04:38] full day have an opportunity to

[2:04:39] do that without having to take

[2:04:41] time off of work.

[2:04:42] As I mentioned earlier we

[2:04:51] deployed self-service kiosks

[2:04:52] throughout the county including

[2:04:53] in this building.

[2:04:54] Through the kiosks you can

[2:04:54] interact with our office.

[2:04:55] You can interact with other

[2:04:56] courts, pay your taxes and even

[2:05:01] registered to vote.

[2:05:01] We deployed kiosks at half of

[2:05:03] the county libraries and we are

[2:05:04] deploying another for this

[2:05:04] year.

[2:05:04] We will have three more to

[2:05:05] deploy the year after in this

[2:05:06] program is completely grand

[2:05:07] fund and park will some operate

[2:05:16] litigant self center.

[2:05:17] The self-help center is aimed

[2:05:18] at giving people access to the

[2:05:19] courts whether they can afford

[2:05:29] an attorney or not.

[2:05:30] We provide different legal

[2:05:31] resources as well as exemplars

[2:05:32] and forms some people take care

[2:05:33] of the business in the court

[2:05:34] been possible without the

[2:05:40] assistance of an attorney.

[2:05:41] Last year you MAY remember we

[2:05:42] launched our real property

[2:05:43] fraud alert service.

[2:05:44] This is a service we provide

[2:05:55] for free to our constituents

[2:05:59] .

[2:06:00] There are some services you can

[2:06:01] subscribe two for a

[2:06:02] subscription fee, but we were

[2:06:03] able to secure grant funding to

[2:06:04] provide service free of cost

[2:06:05] per call the resident asked to

[2:06:06] do is go on the system,

[2:06:07] register their property in any

[2:06:08] time someone tries to do any

[2:06:08] activity in land records on

[2:06:09] that property the registered

[2:06:17] owner will be notified.

[2:06:18] This doesn't prevent deed to

[2:06:19] fraud but it makes it a lot

[2:06:19] less harmful and a lot easier

[2:06:20] to correct if it should happen,

[2:06:27] which it has not in prince

[2:06:28] william county.

[2:06:28] We also provide free gun locks

[2:06:29] to promote safe and secure

[2:06:30] communities and we expanded our

[2:06:33] online services to include

[2:06:34] online scheduling, online

[2:06:35] probate of most wills, historic

[2:06:36] records were all our historic

[2:06:37] records can be accessed from

[2:06:42] your home and coming in MAY

[2:06:43] 2026 we will be announcing the

[2:06:44] artificially fully digitized in

[2:06:54] a record system.

[2:06:55] Another issue with

[2:06:56] accessibility has been the

[2:06:57] availability of parking at the

[2:06:58] judicial center.

[2:07:03] We undertook a lotta talk and

[2:07:04] research on how to improve this

[2:07:09] at a low to no cost

[2:07:10] .

[2:07:10] What we came up with was

[2:07:11] creating a network of google

[2:07:12] maps that show all of the

[2:07:13] available parking areas in and

[2:07:18] around the judicial center on

[2:07:19] the judicial center campus we

[2:07:21] have signage everywhere with qr

[2:07:27] code so people can scan it with

[2:07:28] their phone and have their

[2:07:29] phone direct them to the

[2:07:29] nearest available parking.

[2:07:33] We also expanded our language

[2:07:33] services.

[2:07:34] We can communicate with

[2:07:35] customers in more than 50

[2:07:37] different languages in writing

[2:07:42] and verbally.

[2:07:43] That offer an judicial ability

[2:07:51] has been recognized by virginia

[2:07:52] lawyers weekly, fox five, D.C.

[2:07:53] 101 and wto p news on the

[2:07:53] virginia state bar has

[2:08:06] appointed us to the access to

[2:08:07] legal services board to share

[2:08:08] innovations we brought to

[2:08:09] prince william to help spread

[2:08:10] them across the commonwealth

[2:08:11] the communities that would

[2:08:11] benefit.

[2:08:12] We also endeavor to provide

[2:08:14] civic education.

[2:08:22] We had our first annual fair on

[2:08:23] the square which is a private

[2:08:24] public partnership that brought

[2:08:24] together 60 local businesses

[2:08:25] and government agencies to

[2:08:26] share with the community what

[2:08:27] services were available.

[2:08:35] Although we didn't plan it this

[2:08:36] way it was timely with the

[2:08:36] government shutdown.

[2:08:37] There were a lot of people in

[2:08:38] need.

[2:08:38] It was well attended and we are

[2:08:40] looking forward to expanding it

[2:08:44] even further next year.

[2:08:45] We also were able to host a

[2:08:46] successful animal supply drive

[2:08:46] at that event.

[2:08:55] My office was full of dog food.

[2:08:55] We participate in the animal

[2:08:56] town of dumfries expungement

[2:08:57] clinic along with the

[2:08:58] constitutional officers.

[2:09:01] We also printed this

[2:09:01] participated in clinics in

[2:09:02] other communities but by far

[2:09:09] the town expungement clinic is

[2:09:09] the most popular and I would

[2:09:10] say it is down to the dumfries

[2:09:11] town council who does an

[2:09:24] excellent job running that

[2:09:24] event.

[2:09:25] We also host a student art

[2:09:26] contest every year for law day.

[2:09:26] The theme is always a

[2:09:27] constitutional theme and the

[2:09:28] children are asked to interpret

[2:09:29] that theme and what it means to

[2:09:29] them.

[2:09:30] It is open to prince william

[2:09:30] county school students,

[2:09:31] manasses

[2:09:32] , manassas park and private

[2:09:33] school students and homeschool

[2:09:39] students.

[2:09:40] As you probably realize we are

[2:09:41] and supervisor gordy district.

[2:09:52] Supervisor gordy has been so

[2:09:53] supportive of the art contest.

[2:09:54] I appreciate you entered a

[2:09:55] proclamation about the art

[2:09:55] contest.

[2:09:56] Supervisor gordy can then read

[2:09:57] it to the kids but they were

[2:09:57] very excited.

[2:09:58] I appreciate your support of

[2:10:01] that program.

[2:10:02] We also provide presentations

[2:10:03] and trainings to the league of

[2:10:05] voters, girl scouts and the

[2:10:12] scouts of america.

[2:10:13] We provide services to the

[2:10:18] justice like me initiative

[2:10:19] within the courthouse.

[2:10:25] Would provide access to

[2:10:26] different artifacts to

[2:10:27] homeschool groups to bring

[2:10:27] history alive for them based on

[2:10:28] what they are studying at that

[2:10:29] time.

[2:10:30] We also do that for different

[2:10:31] community groups who express

[2:10:32] interest.

[2:10:34] We are also focused on

[2:10:38] potential efficiency

[2:10:39] improvements.

[2:10:40] One of the greatest areas of

[2:10:42] the success we have seen is an

[2:10:43] employee developments

[2:10:49] satisfaction and retention.

[2:10:50] We have developed a three-tier

[2:10:52] training model for people

[2:10:52] , your

[2:10:58] employees we bring into our

[2:10:59] agency the first is the new

[2:11:00] employee skills training

[2:11:02] module.

[2:11:02] That is a one year module where

[2:11:05] one month our benchmarks to

[2:11:06] meet.

[2:11:08] E use the resources

[2:11:09] provided the county through pwc

[2:11:12] university.

[2:11:13] We also form discussion groups

[2:11:14] around the different lessons

[2:11:17] learned to set a bar of

[2:11:17] professionalism for our

[2:11:21] employees

[2:11:21] .

[2:11:22] And also to promote positive

[2:11:24] mental health.

[2:11:25] Because we can be put in very

[2:11:27] difficult situations in the

[2:11:31] courthouse and we interact with

[2:11:34] a law of different people every

[2:11:36] day and it can be difficult

[2:11:36] sometimes.

[2:11:40] But knowing our employees have

[2:11:41] that support within their own

[2:11:44] agency community.

[2:11:45] They have their classmates that

[2:11:46] I've gone through the same

[2:11:47] training has been very

[2:11:52] beneficial to help create solid

[2:11:53] partnerships within our agency

[2:11:54] and to promote employee

[2:11:54] retention.

[2:11:59] After that we have

[2:12:00] our rebound reality based rules

[2:12:01] of the workplace module which

[2:12:01] is sort of the next level.

[2:12:02] If you show promise for

[2:12:03] leadership in the office we

[2:12:07] will have you attend that class

[2:12:07] .

[2:12:08] It focuses on mental health,

[2:12:10] how we treat others, how we

[2:12:13] treat ourselves and after that

[2:12:14] level we look to the reality

[2:12:20] -based leadership program which

[2:12:20] we focus on taking all the

[2:12:22] tools we learned from the first

[2:12:27] two levels and taking it to the

[2:12:27] next level so you can be

[2:12:28] leadership and management

[2:12:28] within the office.

[2:12:30] On the systems are modeled

[2:12:38] after colin powell's addition

[2:12:39] program and we have modified it

[2:12:39] to be specialized to our

[2:12:40] agency.

[2:12:40] For fiscal responsibility we do

[2:12:46] an annual audit of all our

[2:12:47] expenditures to analyze their

[2:12:48] necessity.

[2:12:48] After six years we

[2:12:50] independently $5 million in

[2:12:52] grants.

[2:12:53] We used those grants to

[2:12:57] completely outfit seals on

[2:12:58] wheels for the preservation of

[2:12:59] our shared history and

[2:13:02] self-funded the renovation of

[2:13:02] our space in the judicial

[2:13:08] center.

[2:13:12] This year we added transparency

[2:13:14] as an office focus

[2:13:14] .

[2:13:16] We are primarily focused on

[2:13:23] better data analysis

[2:13:23] .

[2:13:24] We are analyzing service

[2:13:25] trends, community needs,

[2:13:25] community usage.

[2:13:26] Again, giving efficiency audits

[2:13:27] both in process and

[2:13:32] expenditure.

[2:13:33] We are looking at national

[2:13:34] trends that we are seeing in

[2:13:35] the courts and also evaluating

[2:13:36] court case volume and how we

[2:13:36] can best and most efficiently

[2:13:42] handled that.

[2:13:43] So for the new mandates, this

[2:13:43] is an interesting one.

[2:13:48] The

[2:13:48] rules of the supreme court of

[2:13:49] virginia dictate the operation

[2:13:56] of the circuit court and the

[2:13:57] supreme court has modified

[2:13:57] their rules in the past year to

[2:13:58] allow self represented

[2:14:06] litigants to e-file the self

[2:14:07] represented litigants had

[2:14:08] previously been excluded from

[2:14:09] e-filing or however, the

[2:14:10] systems we use which are

[2:14:10] provided by the supreme court

[2:14:11] of virginia do not allow for

[2:14:18] self represented litigants to

[2:14:19] e-file and indications are or

[2:14:19] representations are there

[2:14:20] aren't any plans to include

[2:14:21] this in the future.

[2:14:23] So we will talk about the cure

[2:14:24] for this issue a little later

[2:14:31] in the presentation.

[2:14:32] We also have a legislative

[2:14:32] mandate.

[2:14:33] Amended automatic ceiling of

[2:14:34] certain criminal cases from

[2:14:34] 1986 until the present about

[2:14:45] automatic in quotation marks

[2:14:46] because the code calls it

[2:14:47] automatic and it is for the

[2:14:48] citizen but someone has got to

[2:14:48] do it.

[2:14:49] We begin preparation for the

[2:14:50] significant undertaking in

[2:14:51] fiscal 23 with the help of

[2:14:52] smart budgeting by the county

[2:14:55] to accelerate our final

[2:14:56] digitization of our historic

[2:14:59] case files

[2:14:59] .

[2:15:00] The 100 percent digitization

[2:15:01] would be complete in MAY at 26

[2:15:11] which is ahead of schedule a

[2:15:12] right on time for this mandate

[2:15:13] her glass to the state

[2:15:13] compensation board in

[2:15:14] conjunction with the board of

[2:15:15] county supervisors funded a

[2:15:16] full-time equivalent employee

[2:15:16] who could fill that

[2:15:17] position

[2:15:24] almost immediately.

[2:15:25] She is already training for the

[2:15:26] project to begin JANUARY 1 but

[2:15:27] we are ready to hit the ground

[2:15:31] running when it comes.

[2:15:32] If there is no disruption of

[2:15:33] operations I have learned to

[2:15:34] say that since covid took no

[2:15:34] additional needs are

[2:15:35] anticipated to achieve this

[2:15:38] mandate.

[2:15:41] So service level trends your

[2:15:49] current jury pool is continuing

[2:15:50] to grow which means the amount

[2:15:51] of postage it costs to send out

[2:15:51] the jury

[2:15:51] questionnaires

[2:15:52] continues to grow.

[2:15:52] Ou can

[2:15:54] see from the graph the blue

[2:15:55] line is the number of jury

[2:15:57] questionnaires we need to send

[2:15:58] out each year.

[2:15:58] During that time period are

[2:16:09] posted budget has been static

[2:16:10] there's been no growth in that

[2:16:10] budget line hook I will share

[2:16:11] with you how we have been able

[2:16:12] to make up the shortfall and

[2:16:13] what we need to do for the

[2:16:14] future to prevent shortfall.

[2:16:18] We have seen rapid growth in

[2:16:19] the area of probate

[2:16:19] administration.

[2:16:28] We did anticipate this growth.

[2:16:29] We have been talking about it a

[2:16:30] few years.

[2:16:30] This year is the first year we

[2:16:31] saw a real spite, which is what

[2:16:37] I consider a spike.

[2:16:38] 14 percent.

[2:16:39] It's attributable in my opinion

[2:16:39] into the aging population, our

[2:16:40] population growth.

[2:16:41] We are seeing increased

[2:16:44] property values an increase

[2:16:44] asset complexity.

[2:16:45] We have also seen an increase

[2:16:46] in popularity of estate

[2:16:47] planning which is a wonderful

[2:16:48] thing our people are planning

[2:16:50] for their future.

[2:16:51] But it does more frequently

[2:16:52] require court intervention.

[2:16:58] We

[2:16:59] have also seen rapid growth

[2:17:00] this year in our self

[2:17:01] represented litigants center

[2:17:01] and law library.

[2:17:02] Specifically 30 percent

[2:17:09] increase in the number of

[2:17:10] residents served.

[2:17:10] I attribute this primarily to

[2:17:11] the fact we expanded the

[2:17:18] services we provide in the self

[2:17:19] represented litigants entered a

[2:17:20] knot just include circuit court

[2:17:21] but include general district

[2:17:21] court in the juvenile and

[2:17:31] relations courts.

[2:17:31] The clerks of those courts as

[2:17:32] well as the chief judges of

[2:17:33] those courts have been very

[2:17:34] helpful in allowing us to do

[2:17:35] that and maintain accurate

[2:17:36] exemplars and resources so we

[2:17:44] are happy to support that.

[2:17:45] That does not result in

[2:17:45] additional cost.

[2:17:46] Where we are seeing the

[2:17:47] additional cost need is in the

[2:17:51] resources not available

[2:17:52] digitally.

[2:17:53] there are some legal resources

[2:17:54] only available in print and

[2:17:58] their resources used regularly.

[2:17:59] So because of the nature of the

[2:18:00] law we are required to update

[2:18:04] or even replace the volumes

[2:18:05] every year and these are

[2:18:05] expensive books.

[2:18:06] Think back to buying textbooks

[2:18:11] for school.

[2:18:12] There expensive and the only

[2:18:14] increased in cost over the last

[2:18:14] three years by 20 percent which

[2:18:15] is attributable not just to the

[2:18:16] increase in the cost of goods

[2:18:17] but the rapid increase in the

[2:18:31] cost of postage.

[2:18:32] So here is an overview of the

[2:18:33] budget initiatives.

[2:18:33] Estore

[2:18:34] annual access fees revenue.

[2:18:35] The e-filing system upgrade

[2:18:36] drupal expansion postage, jury

[2:18:37] questionnaire return postage

[2:18:37] self represented law center in

[2:18:40] law library.

[2:18:54] We will go into each one.

[2:18:55] The first is to restore the

[2:18:55] excess fees revenue to the

[2:18:56] county.

[2:18:56] This is the second request.

[2:18:56] T

[2:18:57] has been included in the 2026

[2:18:58] county legislative priorities

[2:18:59] thank you.

[2:19:00] I appreciate that.

[2:19:00] Excess fees are those fees

[2:19:12] collected in excess of her

[2:19:13] state allotted budget.

[2:19:14] Those excess fees, two thirds

[2:19:15] of the fees are supposed to

[2:19:16] come back to the locality as

[2:19:17] unrestricted revenue.

[2:19:24] That revenue goes to the county

[2:19:24] to you to use as you deem fit.

[2:19:25] It does not go back to the

[2:19:26] clerks office, he goes to the

[2:19:27] county coffers and we will be

[2:19:28] working in richmond

[2:19:28] side-by-side this year to try

[2:19:30] to get that restored.

[2:19:35] Next we have the e-filing

[2:19:36] system for self represented

[2:19:39] litigants

[2:19:39] .

[2:19:40] As I mentioned, the supreme

[2:19:41] court has modified the rules to

[2:19:44] allow e-filing for self

[2:19:45] represented litigants as well

[2:19:46] as attorneys

[2:19:46] .

[2:19:49] We identified a compliant

[2:19:50] e-filing service currently

[2:20:03] functioning in some other

[2:20:04] localities comparable to prince

[2:20:04] william.

[2:20:05] It is working effectively.

[2:20:06] It's about $25,000 but it would

[2:20:07] be a seamless transition and

[2:20:08] allow self represented

[2:20:09] litigants and attorneys to

[2:20:10] e-file equally.

[2:20:11] It is also just a better, more

[2:20:11] streamlined system.

[2:20:13] It is more

[2:20:16] recently created.

[2:20:19] The jury pool expansion postage

[2:20:22] increase

[2:20:22] .

[2:20:24] Our jury pool continues to

[2:20:27] expand.

[2:20:31] The way the jury process starts

[2:20:32] is the chief judge orders

[2:20:33] questionnaires be sent out to

[2:20:34] residents

[2:20:34] .

[2:20:41] Those questionnaires ask

[2:20:41] questions that would inform us

[2:20:42] if someone is qualified to

[2:20:43] serve on a jury or not.

[2:20:44] Are you over 18, are you a

[2:20:47] citizen of the united states,

[2:20:48] are you a resident of the 31st

[2:20:48] judicial circuit.

[2:20:51] The clerk then collects all the

[2:20:53] answers to those questionnaires

[2:20:56] and appoints jury commissioners

[2:21:02] to look at all the responses

[2:21:03] and decide is this person

[2:21:04] qualified or is this person not

[2:21:06] qualified.

[2:21:07] If someone says I'm 17 years

[2:21:08] old they go into the

[2:21:10] nonqualified pile.

[2:21:11] All the questionnaires deemed

[2:21:15] qualified

[2:21:15] , supervisor stewart

[2:21:16] knows well.

[2:21:16] E served as a

[2:21:17] jury commissioner.

[2:21:20] All of those people get a

[2:21:20] summons.

[2:21:21] For some point in the year to

[2:21:22] report to the circuit court for

[2:21:28] duty.

[2:21:28] That doesn't mean they won't

[2:21:29] sit on the jury.

[2:21:30] Doesn't mean they're going to

[2:21:34] come to the court, but it means

[2:21:35] they have to be at the rate he

[2:21:35] should the need arise for

[2:21:35] their

[2:21:36] services on a given day.

[2:21:43] They call us every monday or

[2:21:44] every tuesday or every

[2:21:45] wednesday that month or look at

[2:21:46] our social media preferably.

[2:21:46] And see do I have to

[2:21:47] report this

[2:21:47] day?

[2:21:48] We are faced with quite a lot

[2:21:51] of postage given the

[2:21:52] questionnaires have to be

[2:21:53] mailed.

[2:21:54] The jury summons have to be

[2:21:58] mailed and sometimes there is

[2:22:02] back-and-forth to make up that

[2:22:03] shortfall we have I'm looking

[2:22:04] for $73,000.

[2:22:06] Again

[2:22:07] , this budget line is not

[2:22:13] been increased in over 15 years

[2:22:14] progressive 15 years because

[2:22:14] that's the records we have.

[2:22:15] I don't know the last time it

[2:22:22] was updated but it is time.

[2:22:23] Also related to postage is jury

[2:22:28] questionnaire return postage.

[2:22:29] Because we had a shortfall in

[2:22:30] availability of postage sending

[2:22:31] out the juror questionnaires

[2:22:31] ,

[2:22:31] we had to make up the

[2:22:37] shortfall.

[2:22:37] The way we made up the

[2:22:38] shortfall was we did not

[2:22:39] provide return postage for our

[2:22:45] residents to return there jury

[2:22:46] questionnaires.

[2:22:46] It did result in some

[2:22:47] complaints.

[2:22:48] More complaints than we would

[2:22:50] have expected.

[2:22:51] But in order to eliminate the

[2:22:53] undue burden to the citizens to

[2:22:54] provide what is almost a dollar

[2:22:58] now for a stamp and frequently

[2:22:59] the larger issue is the

[2:23:00] inconvenience of going to buy a

[2:23:01] stamp.

[2:23:02] I'm asking we have a separate

[2:23:04] line item $26,000 to cover that

[2:23:12] return postage.

[2:23:13] It would be business reply

[2:23:13] mail.

[2:23:14] We only pay for the postage we

[2:23:15] use but our citizens would have

[2:23:24] the option to do that.

[2:23:25] Finally, our self represented

[2:23:26] litigants center and law

[2:23:26] library.

[2:23:26] As I mentioned, the number

[2:23:27] customer served increased by 30

[2:23:37] percent this year.

[2:23:38] Our services have expanded to

[2:23:39] include all three levels of

[2:23:39] court.

[2:23:40] The cost to update and replace

[2:23:41] the print materials has

[2:23:41] increased by 20 percent over

[2:23:42] the last three years.

[2:23:43] We are looking to make that on.

[2:23:44] I should add that this is one

[2:23:45] of the areas where we are

[2:23:46] continually evaluating the

[2:23:50] expenditure because it is my

[2:23:50] hope the printed materials that

[2:23:52] are quite costly will

[2:23:53] eventually be available by

[2:23:54] electronic subscription

[2:23:54] .

[2:23:57] So every year we audit the

[2:23:59] collection to see can we shift

[2:24:00] more over to the electronic

[2:24:04] site

[2:24:05] , but as of right now this

[2:24:09] is where we stand.

[2:24:10] Again, that's our summary of

[2:24:14] the request.

[2:24:14] Thank you again for having me

[2:24:16] here to speak with you.

[2:24:17] Thank you to those of you who

[2:24:19] visited our office

[2:24:25] .

[2:24:26] You have almost 65 county

[2:24:26] employees out in our office and

[2:24:27] if you haven't stop by I am

[2:24:31] sure we would be happy to meet

[2:24:31] with you.

[2:24:32] And I hope you will join us

[2:24:32] saturday I gainesville

[2:24:33] haymarket library from 10:00to

[2:24:39] 1:00for our sales on wheels.

[2:24:39] >> Chair Jefferson: thank you

[2:24:51] for coming and thank you for

[2:24:52] everything your office does.

[2:24:53] I love seeing when you guys pop

[2:24:54] up somewhere like montclair

[2:24:55] library and all the services

[2:24:56] you are able to provide.

[2:24:56] Supervisor franklin?

[2:24:57] >> Margaret Angela Franklin:

[2:24:58] thank you.

[2:24:59] Thank you for the presentation

[2:24:59] and thank you for the tour I

[2:25:00] took recently.

[2:25:01] I got a lot more insight into

[2:25:01] how everyone is doing their

[2:25:02] best

[2:25:02] work together within our

[2:25:03] court system.

[2:25:06] A quick question.

[2:25:07] On slide 16 were mentioned

[2:25:10] about the number of trials

[2:25:11] requiring jurors to being

[2:25:11] summoned.

[2:25:12] It's a that is in decline

[2:25:14] .

[2:25:17] Is that for civil or criminal?

[2:25:21] >> we don't break it out by

[2:25:21] civil took a mental pick these

[2:25:22] are statistics that come out

[2:25:25] our jury division

[2:25:25] .

[2:25:26] When we have a jury trial on

[2:25:29] the docket, if it hasn't been

[2:25:30] resolved prior to the night

[2:25:32] before the trial we have to

[2:25:33] summon the jurors to come in

[2:25:40] here sometimes the case might

[2:25:41] resolve that morning.

[2:25:42] Sometimes it might resolve

[2:25:43] later in the morning, but we

[2:25:44] have to have the jurors

[2:25:44] available in case the case goes

[2:25:52] forward

[2:25:52] .

[2:25:53] >> Margaret Angela Franklin:

[2:25:54] understood.

[2:25:54] Thank you.

[2:25:55] MR. Shorter, if someone can

[2:25:56] remind me with regard to the

[2:25:57] annual excess fees if that is

[2:26:04] in our legislative agenda

[2:26:05] .

[2:26:05] I think it is.

[2:26:06] > it is included.

[2:26:06] E work

[2:26:07] with the clerks office months

[2:26:08] ago to include the language in

[2:26:08] the agenda.

[2:26:09] >> Margaret Angela Franklin: I

[2:26:10] know we talked a little bit

[2:26:13] about it on obviously the state

[2:26:14] gets a lot of money when they

[2:26:15] are not returning it back to

[2:26:15] the counties.

[2:26:16] We will do as much as we can to

[2:26:17] push for that within our

[2:26:21] delegation so thank you.

[2:26:22] >> Chair Jefferson: all right.

[2:26:23] Supervisor bailey.

[2:26:28] >> Vice Chair Andrea Bailey:

[2:26:29] thank you MADAM Chair.

[2:26:30] Thank you for your

[2:26:30] presentation.

[2:26:31] You and the sheriff did a great

[2:26:32] job making sure we totally

[2:26:34] understand what you do and why

[2:26:34] you need.

[2:26:35] i really appreciate both

[2:26:35] presentations.

[2:26:37] My question to

[2:26:41] you is you are a very

[2:26:49] innovative in securing grants

[2:26:49] .

[2:26:49] Do you foresee, as you go

[2:26:51] forward, that being interrupted

[2:26:55] at all, if you will, in the

[2:26:56] plan you have, the strategic

[2:26:57] plan you have for your

[2:26:57] department?

[2:27:02] >> so we evaluated all the

[2:27:03] grants we received right now.

[2:27:06] He recurring grants we have

[2:27:09] that are virtually zero risk of

[2:27:12] going away.

[2:27:16] The restoration grants that we

[2:27:17] get from the library of

[2:27:17] virginia

[2:27:24] we used to take books.

[2:27:25] We refer to them as our ancient

[2:27:25] books, but books from the early

[2:27:29] 1700s, even early 1800s that

[2:27:30] are sort of deteriorating.

[2:27:31] The library of virginia we can

[2:27:33] apply to for grants to restore

[2:27:39] those books pick those grants

[2:27:39] are?

[2:27:40] Right now but we don't plan to

[2:27:43] rely on those grants.

[2:27:44] Those are nice to have but if

[2:27:54] we don't have them the book is

[2:27:55] going to have to wait another

[2:27:56] year.

[2:27:56] It's not a question of having a

[2:27:57] shortfall of the budget.

[2:27:58] >> Vice Chair Andrea Bailey:

[2:27:59] another question is in

[2:28:00] reference to that, are you

[2:28:01] looking to digitize any of your

[2:28:01] documents in the office to make

[2:28:07] sure they are restored in that

[2:28:07] regard?

[2:28:08] That is going to be a cost as

[2:28:10] well.

[2:28:10] >> as of MAY we will be 100

[2:28:20] percent digitized the

[2:28:20] digitization of the historic

[2:28:21] books is a little more

[2:28:21] difficult.

[2:28:22] When digitization first

[2:28:23] started, we were doing it by

[2:28:24] photograph because they were

[2:28:25] browned, very brittle books.

[2:28:31] Ut when we have a grant or

[2:28:32] available funds to send it to

[2:28:33] an actual restore, they

[2:28:35] completely diss and symbol the

[2:28:35] book and they do a high-quality

[2:28:39] scam of every single page and

[2:28:49] then bind that into a book.

[2:28:50] If you didn't see downside to

[2:28:51] know this was a new book when

[2:28:51] you opened it up you would

[2:28:53] thank you were looking at the

[2:28:53] original.

[2:28:54] So we do have digital images of

[2:28:55] everything.

[2:28:55] They are not the best.

[2:29:02] We use the grant monies to make

[2:29:03] them the best and restore the

[2:29:03] physical book.

[2:29:04] >> Vice Chair Andrea Bailey:

[2:29:05] the last question, if I MAY.

[2:29:06] For the expungement clinics and

[2:29:07] they been quite successful

[2:29:08] since the inception of them

[2:29:13] starting the program.

[2:29:14] How do you see that program

[2:29:21] expanding across the county?

[2:29:22] >> we have had other elected

[2:29:23] officials reach out to hold

[2:29:26] expungement fairs

[2:29:26] .

[2:29:27] I don't know if it is a

[2:29:33] question of need but they just

[2:29:33] haven't been as popular of

[2:29:38] dumfries.

[2:29:39] The town of dumfries does a

[2:29:40] phenomenal job promoting the

[2:29:41] event, draining the people

[2:29:42] working the event, and making

[2:29:43] sure we have the resources

[2:29:43] to

[2:29:44] successfully kick off the event

[2:29:58] .

[2:29:59] >> Vice Chair Andrea Bailey:

[2:30:00] thank you MADAM Chair.

[2:30:01] >> Chair Jefferson: thank you.

[2:30:01] i don't have any other

[2:30:02] questions or comments and thank

[2:30:03] you very much for coming here

[2:30:03] today.

[2:30:04] I also want to recognize we

[2:30:05] have our chief public defender

[2:30:06] tracy here with us as well

[2:30:14] today.

[2:30:15] >> MR. Shorter: thank you MADAM

[2:30:17] Chair and members of the board.

[2:30:17] And again, to our clerk jackie

[2:30:18] smith, thank you for the

[2:30:18] presentation.

[2:30:19] The next presentation we have.

[2:30:21] Really excited about this

[2:30:21] presentation.

[2:30:22] Rachel taylor from our office

[2:30:25] of community safety will come

[2:30:26] forward and talk about domestic

[2:30:26] violence fatality review.

[2:30:28] This is a long-standing

[2:30:28] opportunity for us.

[2:30:30] I think we

[2:30:34] are going to have our deputy

[2:30:35] county executive kick this

[2:30:39] presentation off.

[2:30:40] This was a very good

[2:30:43] opportunity for the county to

[2:30:48] have this review happening.

[2:30:49] Spoke thank you.

[2:30:56] Deputy county executive.

[2:30:57] Thank you for the opportunity

[2:30:58] to share and represents a

[2:30:59] milestone in our work to build

[2:31:00] a safer more resilient prince

[2:31:00] william county.

[2:31:04] We are proud to launch the

[2:31:05] domestic violence review team.

[2:31:06] Multidisciplinary initiative

[2:31:07] rooted in their mission is

[2:31:10] office a community safety.

[2:31:11] Circumference and well-being as

[2:31:22] a community we use lessons from

[2:31:23] the fatality review is to spot

[2:31:23] missed

[2:31:24] warning signs.

[2:31:29] Improve service coronation and

[2:31:30] do more effective intervention

[2:31:31] for individuals and families at

[2:31:32] risk.

[2:31:34] we are putting a process in

[2:31:37] place to reduce breakdowns,

[2:31:38] ensuring we learn what leads to

[2:31:39] better outcomes

[2:31:45] .

[2:31:46] It is about improving the

[2:31:47] entire community safety

[2:31:47] ecosystem.

[2:31:48] The review team is part of a

[2:31:49] larger counsel focused on a

[2:31:52] holistic approach to how we

[2:31:58] deal with domestic violence.

[2:31:59] And certainly reflects our

[2:32:00] offices roll less convenient,

[2:32:09] connector, and capacity builder

[2:32:09] across systems.

[2:32:10] With that it is my

[2:32:10] pleasure to

[2:32:11] introduce doctor.

[2:32:11] [Name] And rachel taylor to

[2:32:12] provide more detail about the

[2:32:13] council, the team, and the

[2:32:13] process.

[2:32:18] Thank you.

[2:32:19] >> thank you MADAM Chair and

[2:32:21] members of the board.

[2:32:22] I am the director of the office

[2:32:24] I community safety.

[2:32:32] As dan reiterated, the domestic

[2:32:33] -- is part our offices larger

[2:32:33] effort in creating data

[2:32:38] informed pathways

[2:32:39] .

[2:32:40] Over the last year as MS.

[2:32:40] Taylor will discuss, the data

[2:32:41] we compiled really proves that

[2:32:42] there is a need for further

[2:32:43] development of coordinated

[2:32:49] response pathways.

[2:32:50] What we have been working on is

[2:32:50] the improvement of the

[2:32:51] ecosystem around prevention and

[2:32:52] intervention.

[2:32:57] As well as risk identification.

[2:32:58] And so it is really just one

[2:32:58] effort in the revival of our

[2:33:04] domestic violence counsel which

[2:33:05] leads as well as our

[2:33:06] replacement triage work with

[2:33:07] our agency partners.

[2:33:08] remote positive MS. Taylor

[2:33:12] .

[2:33:19] >> thank you did dan alexander

[2:33:20] and doctor.

[2:33:20] [Name].

[2:33:21] I would like to thank the board

[2:33:22] and MADAM Chair for the

[2:33:23] opportunity to come and talk to

[2:33:23] you today.

[2:33:24] Domestic violence in the states

[2:33:27] kills three people every day

[2:33:27] .

[2:33:28] It is also the leading cause of

[2:33:29] death among pregnant women

[2:33:31] across the nation

[2:33:31] .

[2:33:32] Nationally and account for one

[2:33:43] in every five homicides that is

[2:33:44] 15 to 20 percent parking

[2:33:45] virginia the picture is a

[2:33:45] little bit more bleak with

[2:33:46] about 20 to 25 percent of all

[2:33:47] homicides been linked to

[2:33:48] domestic violence can print

[2:33:48] with them county we find the

[2:33:54] numbers to be even more serious

[2:33:55] with an average of 30 percent

[2:33:56] of all homicides attributed to

[2:33:57] domestic violence broken 2024

[2:33:58] that number was 45 percent.

[2:34:00] Since 2020 ask who operates our

[2:34:02] local domestic violence hotline

[2:34:04] , since 2020 days on increase

[2:34:13] in calls for help 500 percent.

[2:34:14] At the office a community

[2:34:15] safety we joined with community

[2:34:16] partners addressing this

[2:34:17] critical issue by reviving

[2:34:19] domestic violence counsel in

[2:34:19] conducting domestic violence

[2:34:20] resource mapping, conducting a

[2:34:21] gap analysis we identified

[2:34:22] there are scarce resources for

[2:34:23] victims within our county.

[2:34:26] In particular concern is the

[2:34:27] fact only emergency safe house

[2:34:35] only has five bedrooms for a

[2:34:36] population of 500,000 people.

[2:34:36] We one forensic nurse for the

[2:34:37] entire county that is also at

[2:34:38] this time unable to serve

[2:34:42] children so all children in the

[2:34:43] vast majority of victims have

[2:34:44] to go to neighboring counties

[2:34:45] to get forensic exams.

[2:34:46] The fatality review works is a

[2:35:01] type of social autopsy for our

[2:35:02] community.

[2:35:03] It includes the analysis of

[2:35:04] local homicides to identify

[2:35:05] systems gaps, improve agency

[2:35:06] collaboration, and strengthen

[2:35:07] prevention efforts to reduce

[2:35:07] future deaths.

[2:35:08] Who's at risk in the community

[2:35:09] are questions we would like to

[2:35:10] have answered.

[2:35:11] Want to know what is the

[2:35:11] information related to

[2:35:12] characteristics of violence in

[2:35:13] the relationship of those

[2:35:14] involved reported the red flags

[2:35:15] for domestic violence within

[2:35:15] prince william county what are

[2:35:16] the resources in our community

[2:35:17] more importantly, are they

[2:35:17] working?

[2:35:18] From these conclusions how does

[2:35:23] the team prevent future

[2:35:24] domestic violence fatalities

[2:35:24] pick the work being done here

[2:35:25] among our community has been

[2:35:38] truly inspiring following

[2:35:39] training provided by the

[2:35:40] national domestic violence

[2:35:41] fatality review initiative out

[2:35:42] of arizona state university, we

[2:35:43] created an interagency

[2:35:44] agreement and protocol to

[2:35:45] hopefully establish the greater

[2:35:46] principal and county domestic

[2:35:47] violence fatality review team

[2:35:47] through this effort included

[2:35:49] the signature of 16 agencies so

[2:35:49] far with hopefully more to

[2:35:50] come.

[2:35:50] I would like to recognize she

[2:35:51] public defender office tracy.

[2:35:52] We have acting director, and

[2:35:59] adjusted services

[2:36:00] .

[2:36:00] [Name] And the domestic

[2:36:01] violence coordinator oksana

[2:36:02] sure from prince william county

[2:36:03] police.

[2:36:03] In addition would like to point

[2:36:04] out this is indeed the greater

[2:36:05] prince william county fatality

[2:36:06] review.

[2:36:07] We representation signed the

[2:36:08] principal and county police

[2:36:09] department as well as manassas

[2:36:09] city of manassas park with

[2:36:10] hopefully more to grow.

[2:36:12] The foundation however is built

[2:36:13] upon confidentiality.

[2:36:16] Under code section 32.1-283.3

[2:36:17] the records are confidential

[2:36:26] and they are not subject to

[2:36:27] virginia freedom of information

[2:36:27] act.

[2:36:29] be subpoenaed, requested in

[2:36:29] discovery were used as evidence

[2:36:30] in any civil or criminal case

[2:36:31] pickup would like to note on

[2:36:32] the cases under review are

[2:36:36] completely closed.

[2:36:37] There is no pending litigation,

[2:36:38] no investigations of civil or

[2:36:39] criminal matter.

[2:36:39] Participants cannot be

[2:36:40] compelled to testify about what

[2:36:41] occurred during the fatality

[2:36:42] review or what information was

[2:36:50] collected and civil immunity

[2:36:51] applies to team members and

[2:36:52] anyone providing information

[2:36:53] unless there is gross

[2:36:53] negligence or

[2:36:54] willfulness

[2:36:54] conduct.

[2:36:55] And recognize initiative in

[2:36:56] principle them county, we join

[2:36:57] 20 other teams across the

[2:36:58] commonwealth, 49 other states

[2:37:01] in the nation and several other

[2:37:01] countries that are also

[2:37:02] conducting these important

[2:37:03] reviews.

[2:37:03] we are all working to

[2:37:05] implement, prevent, implement

[2:37:08] and build resiliency.

[2:37:09] So far the committee members

[2:37:10] and the greater prince william

[2:37:26] county developed their mission,

[2:37:27] vision, values, team protocol

[2:37:28] an interagency agreement.

[2:37:29] In order to proceed under the

[2:37:30] protection of the code of

[2:37:30] virginia we respectfully ask

[2:37:31] today the prince william county

[2:37:33] board of supervisors recognizes

[2:37:34] and supports the creation of

[2:37:35] the greater prince william

[2:37:35] domestic violence fatality

[2:37:36] review team.

[2:37:36] Thank you.

[2:37:37] >> Chair Jefferson: think is a

[2:37:38] very much.

[2:37:39] Supervisor bailey?

[2:37:42] >> thank you for your

[2:37:44] presentation.

[2:37:45] Thank you for your presentation

[2:37:49] and elevating the importance of

[2:37:52] this program.

[2:37:53] It is something that dan and I

[2:37:54] talked about when we first came

[2:37:55] on board

[2:37:55] .

[2:37:58] Something resonating in our

[2:38:01] communities

[2:38:01] .

[2:38:02] Something the percentage of the

[2:38:06] need is increased since covid

[2:38:07] so we are way overdue

[2:38:07] .

[2:38:11] I totally support how we go

[2:38:12] forward because it is

[2:38:18] absolutely essential and there

[2:38:18] are advocates in our community.

[2:38:20] I know specifically in mind

[2:38:20] district when they did their

[2:38:24] annual breast cancer

[2:38:25] awareness/domestic violence

[2:38:27] month awareness program that

[2:38:28] are interested in this

[2:38:29] endeavor.

[2:38:33] So thank you for your foresight

[2:38:33] and again, back to mental

[2:38:38] health

[2:38:39] , you will the land and

[2:38:39] protecting our citizens so I

[2:38:43] really, really appreciate it.

[2:38:44] >> thank you.

[2:38:44] >> Chair Jefferson: supervisor

[2:38:46] boddye

[2:38:46] .

[2:38:47] >> Kenny Boddye: thank you dan,

[2:38:48] doctor.

[2:38:51] [Name], MS. Taylor for this

[2:38:51] .

[2:38:52] Long time coming, glad you are

[2:39:01] able to provide that previous

[2:39:01] efforts and inject new life

[2:39:02] into something near and dear to

[2:39:03] the hearts of everyone on the

[2:39:04] dais and throughout the

[2:39:04] community.

[2:39:05] We know often the percentages

[2:39:11] on the stats, a law and this

[2:39:12] happens by folks with closes in

[2:39:13] proximity and it happens

[2:39:13] unfortunately when there are

[2:39:14] warning signs we just don't

[2:39:15] have enough resources to sense

[2:39:22] at a time.

[2:39:23] This really gets at the heart

[2:39:23] of that.

[2:39:24] It is my hope that as you

[2:39:25] continue to build your team,

[2:39:28] build the work move to identify

[2:39:29] cases and talk to folks and

[2:39:30] what have you, they are able to

[2:39:36] see those warning signs

[2:39:37] hopefully save the lives and

[2:39:38] change the trajectory of

[2:39:40] everyone involved in these

[2:39:41] situations

[2:39:46] .

[2:39:46] Obviously I'm going to be

[2:39:48] supporting this

[2:39:50] .

[2:39:54] Once you get our support and

[2:39:55] are able to establish this team

[2:39:57] would have you what are your

[2:40:00] immediate next steps and to

[2:40:01] model I have seen pop up around

[2:40:06] the region around the country

[2:40:07] are the family justice centers

[2:40:07] that have a broader continuum

[2:40:10] on this and get at the heart

[2:40:11] similar to what we do in the

[2:40:12] child advocacy centers abroad

[2:40:13] in that out to the entire

[2:40:14] family and the victims we are

[2:40:15] talking about here.

[2:40:17] Can you

[2:40:17] talk about that and with the

[2:40:20] forward vision is?

[2:40:21] >> I love what your head is at.

[2:40:30] Immediate steps

[2:40:30] .

[2:40:31] We are fortunate to have doctor

[2:40:31] neil and his team at the

[2:40:32] national domestic violence

[2:40:33] fatality review initiative.

[2:40:34] He literally invented fatality

[2:40:35] review back in 1990.

[2:40:36] We have been working with his

[2:40:36] team to do our training earlier

[2:40:37] this year like I said.

[2:40:42] We are also going to be in the

[2:40:43] back and up conduct our very

[2:40:44] first review and figure out how

[2:40:48] to select that case.

[2:40:48] Into moving ahead as he said

[2:40:49] there are so many

[2:40:50] opportunities, family justice

[2:40:53] center is wonderful.

[2:40:54] As we develop our data and

[2:40:54] understand the circumstances a

[2:40:55] little bit more we will find

[2:40:56] out what that would need to

[2:40:57] look like here in prince

[2:40:58] william.

[2:41:04] Thank you.

[2:41:05] >> Chair Jefferson: supervisor

[2:41:06] franklin.

[2:41:07] >> Margaret Angela Franklin:

[2:41:07] thank you.

[2:41:10] Thank you for the presentation.

[2:41:11] I would point out, and you

[2:41:12] alluded to this.

[2:41:18] In 2024, particularly as most

[2:41:19] crimes of prince william county

[2:41:19] was on the decrease, incidents

[2:41:20] of domestic violence was

[2:41:21] actually on the increase.

[2:41:22] This is incredibly important.

[2:41:24] i do have a couple of questions

[2:41:24] .

[2:41:28] Once this is fully set up, are

[2:41:32] you looking to derive more data

[2:41:33] from some of these domestic

[2:41:35] violence cases and then turn

[2:41:37] them into recommendations for

[2:41:42] how to handle some of these

[2:41:43] cases?

[2:41:44] >> absolutely.

[2:41:45] Applications are determined

[2:41:50] upon what we find, but ideally

[2:41:50] we would be being able to

[2:41:55] compile regular reports that

[2:41:56] would to be provided to the

[2:41:57] board itself, and the community

[2:42:13] members and agencies

[2:42:18] .

[2:42:20] >> Margaret Angela Franklin:

[2:42:21] okay.

[2:42:22] There is a data point where you

[2:42:22] collect all the data and then

[2:42:23] you develop recommendations

[2:42:23] from their

[2:42:24] >> that is correct.

[2:42:25] >> Margaret Angela Franklin:

[2:42:26] how does this relate to the

[2:42:27] community safety initiative.

[2:42:27] Is it part of it, under it,

[2:42:28] working in

[2:42:28] tandem?

[2:42:29] >> the community safety

[2:42:30] initiative, as a goal of a

[2:42:31] convenient couple together

[2:42:32] these court and then the

[2:42:33] community responses.

[2:42:33] One of the things I will notice

[2:42:34] there is domestic violence

[2:42:35] counsel prior to the pandemic

[2:42:36] but it fell apart.

[2:42:36] Through the work

[2:42:37] here with the

[2:42:38] county what we found is people

[2:42:39] volunteering their time to come

[2:42:39] together and really trying to

[2:42:47] pull this up, however, it is

[2:42:48] unstable unless there is a

[2:42:48] particularly clear entity for

[2:42:49] that.

[2:42:50] And so here we are able to

[2:42:50] spearhead that I make sure that

[2:42:51] there is continuity so that way

[2:42:52] we don't lose this again and we

[2:42:53] don't look away from this

[2:42:54] really important topic in the

[2:42:54] future.

[2:43:01] I don't know if we would like

[2:43:01] more expansion on that?

[2:43:02] >> briefly, if you think about

[2:43:03] the connective tissue around

[2:43:04] what we do it is driven by

[2:43:05] engagement informed by evidence

[2:43:12] and ecosystem

[2:43:12] .

[2:43:13] And so there are a number of

[2:43:14] areas we identify domestic

[2:43:15] violence being a big one.

[2:43:16] We talked about human

[2:43:23] trafficking a little bit.

[2:43:24] We are on gangs right now with

[2:43:24] another member.

[2:43:25] There are focus areas that

[2:43:26] allow us in this office is a

[2:43:27] convenient to reach across

[2:43:27] systems where we typically

[2:43:28] haven't to the degree that we

[2:43:29] can now and drive work along

[2:43:30] three elements I talked about

[2:43:30] earlier.

[2:43:35] This is absolutely an important

[2:43:35] program piece to the work we

[2:43:36] are doing broadly in the

[2:43:37] office.

[2:43:37] >> Margaret Angela Franklin:

[2:43:45] thank you for that.

[2:43:45] Thank you for the work we are

[2:43:46] doing.

[2:43:47] MR. Shorter, maybe we could at

[2:43:47] some point get an update on the

[2:43:48] overall community safety

[2:43:49] initiative to see how the

[2:43:50] working group is going to to

[2:43:50] see how things are looking to

[2:43:51] be rolled out.

[2:43:53] Thank you.

[2:43:54] >> Chair Jefferson: all right.

[2:43:55] Supervisor vega and then the

[2:43:56] lease before thinking that

[2:43:57] entire.

[2:44:01] My question is about the work

[2:44:01] distribution.

[2:44:02] I know that this had been the

[2:44:05] fight manassas a manassas park.

[2:44:07] Ticket get off the burden would

[2:44:08] fall in prince william county,

[2:44:12] correct in terms of stop and

[2:44:13] the work that they have to do?

[2:44:20] >> not necessarily.

[2:44:21] That objectives moving ahead

[2:44:22] would determine how who we have

[2:44:23] is a chair and we would like to

[2:44:24] seek representation from the

[2:44:31] greater area.

[2:44:32] I don't necessarily think that

[2:44:32] has to be true.

[2:44:33] I think we can have number step

[2:44:34] up and participate equally.

[2:44:35] >> Yesli Vega: that is good.

[2:44:42] The reason why I ask is I'm

[2:44:43] trying to identify if this

[2:44:44] would add an additional

[2:44:44] financial burden and or

[2:44:45] additional responsibilities to

[2:44:46] our county staff and whether it

[2:44:49] is the clerk of the court or

[2:44:50] sheriff's office, they service

[2:44:51] the cities and pay their fair

[2:44:51] share.

[2:44:52] I was thinking along those

[2:44:58] lines but this would require

[2:44:59] the same type of mou, if that

[2:45:01] is what we want to call it.

[2:45:02] I'm happy to hear there would

[2:45:03] be some type of collaboration

[2:45:04] and I look forward to seeing

[2:45:04] how that develops.

[2:45:04] Thank you.

[2:45:06] >> Chair Jefferson: supervisor

[2:45:06] bailey?

[2:45:07] B6 you MAY have answered this

[2:45:07] at a different time.

[2:45:13] There are organizations and

[2:45:14] subject matter experts.

[2:45:15] One of the things the community

[2:45:15] program that dan created was

[2:45:17] good at is bringing

[2:45:18] organizations within the

[2:45:20] community that have been

[2:45:27] strategically working on this

[2:45:27] on

[2:45:27] brady.

[2:45:28] What does that look like in

[2:45:29] terms of how you're going to

[2:45:32] move forward.

[2:45:33] >> that is also a great

[2:45:33] question.

[2:45:33] We are developing the

[2:45:34] structure.

[2:45:35] We are working to pull in a

[2:45:39] variety of different partners

[2:45:40] .

[2:45:40] I don't know if you wanted to

[2:45:45] jump in on any aspect of that.

[2:45:46] >> Vice Chair Andrea Bailey: I

[2:45:47] know it won't happen overnight

[2:45:48] but I want to know is that in

[2:45:48] the plan?

[2:45:59] >> you look at the current team

[2:46:00] members involved on this.

[2:46:01] I'm going to go off your list

[2:46:02] for criminal justice services,

[2:46:03] ax, community services, health

[2:46:04] districts, social services,

[2:46:05] homeless services, the police

[2:46:05] departments we mentioned

[2:46:06] before.

[2:46:06] 08 argument adult detention

[2:46:07] center.

[2:46:08] It's very inclusive in terms of

[2:46:09] process and how we would

[2:46:19] involve in this work but we can

[2:46:20] expand beyond that to other

[2:46:20] governmental and

[2:46:21] nongovernmental entities for us

[2:46:22] to work on this issue and all

[2:46:22] the other issues.

[2:46:23] >> Vice Chair Andrea Bailey: I

[2:46:24] was just thinking the non-for

[2:46:30] profits.

[2:46:30] When you mentioned human

[2:46:31] trafficking, that's a tender

[2:46:32] spot.

[2:46:32] But there are not for profits

[2:46:34] within our community that would

[2:46:34] be elated that we are starting

[2:46:35] on this.

[2:46:36] That is what I was alluding to.

[2:46:40] Thank you.

[2:46:41] >> Chair Jefferson: supervisor

[2:46:41] boddye.

[2:46:42] >> Kenny Boddye: last couple

[2:46:43] questions and I appreciate my

[2:46:44] colleagues stirring

[2:46:44] more

[2:46:49] thoughts and questions.

[2:46:49] The school system.

[2:46:50] Where does the school system

[2:46:51] sit in the partnership to the

[2:47:01] point my colleague made on the

[2:47:01] team.

[2:47:02] >> we are still collecting

[2:47:03] signatures being knowable to

[2:47:04] formally recognize the team

[2:47:05] would be a great way to attract

[2:47:05] new members.

[2:47:06] Work closely with the schools

[2:47:07] in a human trafficking task

[2:47:10] force we operate so hopefully

[2:47:10] sometime soon.

[2:47:16] >> Kenny Boddye: appreciate

[2:47:16] that.

[2:47:17] Last question we have, it goes

[2:47:18] back to something supervisor

[2:47:19] franklin asked is when you are

[2:47:22] talking about some of the

[2:47:23] current situation ask as he

[2:47:26] brought up

[2:47:26] .

[2:47:28] I assume the answer is yes but

[2:47:29] also identifying the gaps that

[2:47:31] we have frankly in being able

[2:47:39] to address these needs, detect

[2:47:40] them in the on the left and

[2:47:40] right of way.

[2:47:41] Is that part of it?

[2:47:47] >> that is absolutely correct.

[2:47:48] >> Chair Jefferson: thank you

[2:47:48] very much.

[2:47:54] I don't see any further

[2:47:54] questions.

[2:47:55] >> MR. Shorter: thank you MADAM

[2:48:00] Chair and members of the board.

[2:48:01] >> Chair Jefferson: I was

[2:48:02] getting ready to go through my

[2:48:02] agenda.

[2:48:07] This is a resolution

[2:48:07] .

[2:48:08] I would like to get a motion

[2:48:09] directness and support the

[2:48:10] creation of the greater prince

[2:48:13] william domestic violence

[2:48:13] fatality review team.

[2:48:14] >> so moved.

[2:48:15] >> Vice Chair Andrea Bailey:

[2:48:15] second.

[2:48:16] >> Chair Jefferson: any further

[2:48:17] discussion on this?

[2:48:19] I want to

[2:48:25] say quickly if that we need

[2:48:25] this.

[2:48:26] I've spoken to a number of

[2:48:26] police officers who say

[2:48:30] domestic violence calls are the

[2:48:34] most dangerous in reading

[2:48:35] through the staff report and

[2:48:36] reading through this, domestic

[2:48:41] violence is the highest cause

[2:48:46] of death among pregnant women.

[2:48:47] That is sobering and actually

[2:48:47] quite scary.

[2:48:48] Often times people are in

[2:48:49] relationships and there is a

[2:48:52] loft of trust built and that is

[2:48:54] how people fall prey to things

[2:48:54] .

[2:48:55] It's something I'd be remiss if

[2:49:03] I didn't say, it doesn't just

[2:49:04] impact women but also men are

[2:49:05] victims and that is something

[2:49:06] we cannot lose sight of.

[2:49:13] There are men who are victims

[2:49:14] of domestic violence often

[2:49:15] times because of social stigma

[2:49:15] they are afraid to speak up.

[2:49:16] Thank you for the work you do

[2:49:17] around this issue.

[2:49:17] Supervisor angry?

[2:49:18] > Kenny Boddye: I want to

[2:49:18] thank you.

[2:49:36] I know this is a touchy subject

[2:49:36] .

[2:49:37] There is a lot of work

[2:49:37] involved.

[2:49:38] There's a lot of unknowns now.

[2:49:39] Ask these questions, build your

[2:49:39] team.

[2:49:40] I can't wait for you to get

[2:49:41] back and let us know once you

[2:49:42] have the package in place and

[2:49:42] how well it's doing.

[2:49:43] i know it's going to take time

[2:49:44] and it's going to be well worth

[2:49:44] it so thank you for the work

[2:49:48] you have done thus far.

[2:49:56] >> vote unanimous.

[2:49:57] >> MR. Shorter: thank you MADAM

[2:49:57] Chair.

[2:49:58] Into the team, thank you very

[2:50:00] much.

[2:50:01] This was rachael's first time

[2:50:02] in front of the board so

[2:50:06] rachel, great job.

[2:50:07] So with item 10 feet we are

[2:50:11] asking for a transfer of 85,000

[2:50:27] of contingency funds.

[2:50:28] The planning office is bringing

[2:50:29] this forward consulting

[2:50:29] services and I will turn into

[2:50:31] tonya to answer any questions.

[2:50:32] Co-director washington to

[2:50:32] answer questions.

[2:50:33] >> good afternoon.

[2:50:33] Onya

[2:50:35] washington director of the

[2:50:35] planning office joined today by

[2:50:36] eric griffiths who is with our

[2:50:37] cultural resources team and our

[2:50:44] countywide planning division.

[2:50:44] We are here to request the

[2:50:45] board transfer $85,000 for an

[2:50:46] contingency to the planning

[2:50:50] office for consultant services

[2:50:50] to support the

[2:50:51] reduction on the

[2:50:52] thurau fair historic overlay

[2:50:54] district design guidelines.

[2:50:55] As I am sure you are aware we

[2:50:56] have an initiative underway to

[2:50:57] create a new historic district

[2:50:58] for the thorough fare

[2:51:01] community.

[2:51:02] We have a lot of work that has

[2:51:03] already been taken place

[2:51:04] already

[2:51:04] .

[2:51:18] We conducted three community

[2:51:19] meetings between JUNE 20 24 and

[2:51:20] SEPTEMBER this year.

[2:51:21] We have already done a lot of

[2:51:22] work on the first phase which

[2:51:22] is producing the historic

[2:51:29] register, the national historic

[2:51:30] places and virginia landmarks

[2:51:30] register nomination.

[2:51:31] That process is still going

[2:51:32] through the state review

[2:51:33] process

[2:51:35] .

[2:51:36] One big change that took place

[2:51:37] after one of our community

[2:51:38] meetings was that community

[2:51:38] members asked for consideration

[2:51:48] to expand the boundaries of the

[2:51:48] area that is being recommended

[2:51:50] or nominated for the national

[2:51:50] register in virginia landmarks

[2:51:52] process and that triggered

[2:51:52] additional review on the

[2:52:04] stateside.

[2:52:05] That is taking longer than what

[2:52:06] we anticipated.

[2:52:07] And so we decided in SEPTEMBER

[2:52:07] to start the work on a second

[2:52:08] phase to develop the zoning

[2:52:09] text amendment that would

[2:52:10] create the historic overlay

[2:52:11] district.

[2:52:12] As part of that, to a company

[2:52:21] that is eta we also need design

[2:52:22] guidelines that is actually the

[2:52:23] mechanisms that would help to

[2:52:24] regulate matters such as

[2:52:24] architectural changes,

[2:52:25] archaeological resources and

[2:52:26] other historic resources within

[2:52:27] the overlay district once that

[2:52:30] is established as soon as the

[2:52:32] board establishes it.

[2:52:36] Because we are getting started

[2:52:37] earlier we do need resources

[2:52:48] during this fiscal year for the

[2:52:49] design guidelines in order to

[2:52:50] procure consultant, specialized

[2:52:51] consultant resources and

[2:52:52] support to produce that.

[2:53:04] The goal is when we complete

[2:53:05] the draft on the zoning text

[2:53:05] amendment we would bring the

[2:53:06] design guidelines at the same

[2:53:07] time so the board can approve

[2:53:08] both at the same time.

[2:53:09] So happy to answer any

[2:53:10] questions if you have any.

[2:53:10] Thank you.

[2:53:11] >> Chair Jefferson: first time

[2:53:12] supervisor franklin, vega, then

[2:53:12] boddye.

[2:53:13] >> Margaret Angela Franklin: I

[2:53:14] know we put some money toward

[2:53:15] creating the interactive park I

[2:53:15] guess so to speak.

[2:53:20] Is that separate from what we

[2:53:20] are looking to do now?

[2:53:21] >> yes.

[2:53:26] I'm not entirely sure are not

[2:53:27] familiar with what you

[2:53:27] referring to.

[2:53:28] And you provide more details?

[2:53:28] Okay.

[2:53:30] Yes.

[2:53:38] It is a separate project.

[2:53:39] >> are encrypted, evidence

[2:53:39] resource

[2:53:39] specialist with the

[2:53:40] planning office.

[2:53:46] So the original thoroughfare

[2:53:47] initiative included both the

[2:53:50] interpretive park and historic

[2:53:57] overlay district, but they were

[2:53:58] parceled off into separate

[2:53:58] agencies.

[2:53:59] The planning office is handling

[2:54:00] the historic overlay district

[2:54:00] and parks and recreation

[2:54:02] historic is doing the

[2:54:07] historical park aspect part of

[2:54:12] that project.

[2:54:13] >> Chair Jefferson: all right.

[2:54:14] Supervisor vega?

[2:54:24] >> Yesli Vega: for

[2:54:25] clarification purposes I thank

[2:54:26] you might have answered my

[2:54:26] question.

[2:54:28] We need to spend this amount on

[2:54:29] consultants for design

[2:54:29] guidelines?

[2:54:29] >> yes.

[2:54:32] >> Yesli Vega: do we anticipate

[2:54:33] the $85,000 will be enough?

[2:54:34] >> that is what we are

[2:54:35] requesting is the budget so if

[2:54:37] we get those funds that is what

[2:54:38] we will use.

[2:54:38] >> Yesli Vega: thank you.

[2:54:39] >> Chair Jefferson: supervisor

[2:54:39] boddye.

[2:54:40] >> Kenny Boddye: laissez

[2:54:49] question, or a common.

[2:54:50] MS. Washington, I appreciate

[2:54:51] your thought process having

[2:54:51] things run concurrent frankly

[2:54:52] because sometimes we are

[2:54:53] waiting for things to be

[2:54:54] subsequently we end up spending

[2:54:56] more time frankly.

[2:54:57] This journey for a thorough

[2:54:57] fare has become a long time.

[2:54:58] I

[2:55:00] appreciate the fact you are

[2:55:00] thinking about the design

[2:55:02] guidelines

[2:55:03] .

[2:55:04] Having this come to us

[2:55:04] concurrently.

[2:55:10] At the state

[2:55:11] level it works itself out for

[2:55:12] the historical part of it in

[2:55:17] the register you there, you are

[2:55:18] starting to work through the

[2:55:19] process of having our land use

[2:55:26] policies conformed to that.

[2:55:27] That leads me to my question.

[2:55:28] One of the things I have seen,

[2:55:29] sometimes and I imagine it

[2:55:29] won't be the case here.

[2:55:31] Overlays that we adopt

[2:55:32] sometimes contradict underlying

[2:55:33] zoning of what is already

[2:55:45] there.

[2:55:45] The context of the conference

[2:55:48] and zoning ordinance, a lot of

[2:55:48] moving pieces are going on at

[2:55:49] the same time.

[2:55:50] Can you speak of how this will

[2:55:51] fit into that and knowing the

[2:55:53] encumbrance of

[2:56:05] with the historic overlay

[2:56:07] district will not change the

[2:56:08] underlying zoning for the areas

[2:56:10] that will be considered and

[2:56:11] included in the boundaries for

[2:56:13] the parties historical district

[2:56:15] will not run into that issues

[2:56:17] that it is something we shared

[2:56:18] with the community the other

[2:56:20] piece I wanted to note with

[2:56:22] regard to the national register

[2:56:23] and estate process that

[2:56:25] boundary and the boundary that

[2:56:27] will be used for the county's

[2:56:28] historical district they MAY

[2:56:30] not necessarily be the same

[2:56:32] they do not have to be the

[2:56:32] same.

[2:56:34] Additionally with regards to

[2:56:34] the

[2:56:35] national register process

[2:56:39] which again, that ultimately

[2:56:40] the state has to sign off on

[2:56:42] that then it goes to the

[2:56:44] national park service. For

[2:56:46] that ultimate approval, the

[2:56:47] state uses a specific criteria

[2:56:52] in terms of what types of

[2:56:54] properties are eligible to be

[2:56:55] considered for those

[2:56:59] nominations. Eric it's an

[2:57:01] expert on that but that is

[2:57:02] something we've also discussed

[2:57:04] with the community that the

[2:57:06] national register boundary MAY

[2:57:08] be different than what the

[2:57:09] counties boundary it could be

[2:57:11] the same for the county's

[2:57:13] boundary does not necessarily

[2:57:15] have to follow the national

[2:57:16] register entries. I just wanted

[2:57:18] to provide that clarification

[2:57:20] but to get to your first

[2:57:22] question, the overlay district

[2:57:23] essentially will sit on top of

[2:57:25] the existing zoning for that

[2:57:25] community.

[2:57:27] >> Kenny Boddye: to follow up I

[2:57:28] would imagine the overlay will

[2:57:30] follow the counties boundary if

[2:57:32] they are different they will

[2:57:34] not follow the state right.

[2:57:40] >> we could if we wanted to

[2:57:41] with the community support

[2:57:43] follow the national register

[2:57:44] boundary but again because

[2:57:46] these very specific criteria

[2:57:47] their heavy other areas that

[2:57:49] for the counties boundaries for

[2:57:52] the actual historic overlay

[2:57:53] district it MAY be different it

[2:57:55] MAY be expanded what have you

[2:57:57] sell during the last community

[2:57:59] meeting in SEPTEMBER there was

[2:58:00] something that we raised.

[2:58:02] We said are there areas that we

[2:58:10] should consider that maybe

[2:58:12] outside of the boundaries that

[2:58:14] have been identified for the

[2:58:15] national register combination

[2:58:17] that is still undergoing

[2:58:19] review. That is something we

[2:58:20] will be working out with the

[2:58:20] community.

[2:58:22] >> Kenny Boddye: I appreciate

[2:58:24] that my final point is thank

[2:58:26] you ultimately in order was

[2:58:28] community interest from this I

[2:58:30] appreciate how you been feeling

[2:58:31] using it because ultimately we

[2:58:33] don't have we MAY not adopt the

[2:58:40] same exact boundaries as the

[2:58:42] state and national but knowing

[2:58:44] that we MAY be more inclusive

[2:58:46] frankly than they are and be

[2:58:48] very clear with the committee

[2:58:49] on that process that we don't

[2:58:51] naturally have to handshake we

[2:58:53] MAY end up having to recognize

[2:58:55] and put the overlay over a

[2:58:56] larger area versus a smaller.

[2:58:58] >> Tanya Washington: that's

[2:58:59] correct.

[2:59:01] >> Chair Jefferson: supervisor

[2:59:02] stewart.

[2:59:02] >> George Stewart:

[2:59:04] hello MS. Washington good

[2:59:06] afternoon just a simple

[2:59:06] question.

[2:59:08] The necessity to spend $85,000

[2:59:10] on a consultant for the long

[2:59:11] range planning commission is

[2:59:13] there not a skill set in house

[2:59:14] to do this yourself to develop

[2:59:16] the design guidelines.

[2:59:18] >> Tanya Washington: it's a

[2:59:19] combination of specialized

[2:59:21] skills and staff capacity.

[2:59:23] This product is being managed

[2:59:24] by within our countywide

[2:59:25] planning division and

[2:59:27] specifically within our

[2:59:28] cultural resources team gave a

[2:59:37] very packed work plan.

[2:59:38] Additionally with regards to

[2:59:40] design guidelines it goes into

[2:59:42] much greater level of

[2:59:43] specificity such as

[2:59:45] architectural design and other

[2:59:46] matters, that is really more of

[2:59:48] a specialized skill set.

[2:59:49] In order for us to produce

[2:59:51] these design guidelines in a

[2:59:53] timely fashion, along with the

[2:59:55] zta it would take us longer if

[2:59:56] our own staff had to we do have

[2:59:58] some architectural design

[3:00:00] backgrounds within the team,

[3:00:02] but they have a lot of other

[3:00:03] projects they are managing such

[3:00:05] as the conference of zoning

[3:00:07] ordinance update the

[3:00:08] sustainability resilient zta

[3:00:10] the historic overlay district

[3:00:12] on the conference of plan

[3:00:14] amendment's it would be a major

[3:00:15] limitation on our ability to

[3:00:17] continue to advance those

[3:00:18] projects if we had to pull to

[3:00:20] staff that MAY have that skill

[3:00:22] set to work on this as it's

[3:00:23] much more efficient for us to

[3:00:25] hire a consultant to do this

[3:00:27] type of work regularly and get

[3:00:28] this done in a timely fashion

[3:00:30] so we can focus on creating

[3:00:32] zoning text amendment which the

[3:00:33] same team has to produce.

[3:00:38] >> George Stewart: thank you.

[3:00:40] >> Chair Jefferson: thank you

[3:00:42] so very much we don't have any

[3:00:43] more questions really

[3:00:44] appreciate this MS. Washington

[3:00:45] thank you.

[3:00:47] last speaker supervisor stewart

[3:00:49] went to see if you want to move

[3:00:52] this forward.

[3:00:52] >> George Stewart:

[3:00:53] so moved.

[3:00:56] >> second

[3:00:56] .

[3:00:58] >> Chair Jefferson: that was

[3:00:58] simultaneous.

[3:01:01] I thought it was supervisor

[3:01:04] franklin fred I said franklin

[3:01:05] franklin fred.

[3:01:07] [Laughter] Any further

[3:01:08] discussion.

[3:01:12] On this agenda item.

[3:01:13] Let's go ahead and take our

[3:01:23] vote.

[3:03:11] there is nothing else lined up

[3:03:12] for that day.

[3:03:14] >> Margaret Angela Franklin: I

[3:03:15] just want to make sure for the

[3:03:17] planning department I guess I

[3:03:18] would imagine we have cases

[3:03:20] ready to go I just want to make

[3:03:21] sure if there are other cases

[3:03:24] we can get them out of the way.

[3:03:26] >> Tanya Washington: we already

[3:03:28] have cases scheduled through

[3:03:29] the end of this year including

[3:03:31] the DECEMBER 16 meeting it is

[3:03:33] really over timing of there's a

[3:03:34] lot of things that have to get

[3:03:36] lined up we have to get them by

[3:03:37] a certain timeframe in order to

[3:03:39] then produce the staff report

[3:03:40] and get it in the queue for

[3:03:42] specific board dates.

[3:03:44] This is really more of a matter

[3:03:47] of his health the church is

[3:03:49] described we do so have other

[3:03:50] cases for DECEMBER 16 we have

[3:03:53] several cases coming.

[3:03:55] >> Margaret Angela Franklin:

[3:03:56] thank you for that MS.

[3:03:58] Washington because I talked to

[3:04:00] her about this I just want to

[3:04:01] make sure we are moving cases

[3:04:03] along we've had several

[3:04:04] meetings or a couple of

[3:04:06] canceled for 7 pm I just want

[3:04:07] to make sure we're getting

[3:04:09] through the land use cases.

[3:04:11] >> Tanya Washington: we are

[3:04:16] very much getting through the

[3:04:18] land use cases just today the

[3:04:20] board approved for cases during

[3:04:22] a consolidated agenda the

[3:04:25] majority of the cases the board

[3:04:26] takes action on is the

[3:04:26] consolidated agenda it's only

[3:04:29] in the afternoon is a small

[3:04:31] number of cases that are the

[3:04:31] evening cases we definitely

[3:04:33] have cases already looking into

[3:04:35] dates for next year we will

[3:04:37] definitely make progress to

[3:04:43] continue to keep cases just one

[3:04:45] less thing you should looking

[3:04:47] at the planning commission's

[3:04:48] agenda which is even more

[3:04:50] filled. Always roll over to the

[3:04:51] board we are definitely getting

[3:04:52] through our cases.

[3:04:54] >> Chair Jefferson: I just want

[3:04:56] to piggyback on that I swear I

[3:04:58] am not asking supervisor

[3:04:59] franklin to see the thing about

[3:05:01] these questions myself I want

[3:05:04] to know it does original and 7b

[3:05:05] we were doing and off cycle

[3:05:07] budget request we want to make

[3:05:09] sure that planning team has the

[3:05:10] resources that they need to

[3:05:11] continue to move these cases.

[3:05:13] Again the consolidated land-use

[3:05:15] agenda we do get through quite

[3:05:17] a few things the cases in the

[3:05:18] evening they can be more

[3:05:19] contentious I know in DECEMBER

[3:05:21] we will have at least one

[3:05:23] late-night because of a case.

[3:05:25] I really do appreciate planning

[3:05:29] and it gets awfully will have

[3:05:31] more stuff we would have to

[3:05:32] cancel some in evening sessions

[3:13:06] a chance to sit in on the joint

[3:13:07] cog metro board meeting

[3:13:10] yesterday both boards did

[3:13:12] indeed adopt the dmv moves

[3:13:14] initiative which does not touch

[3:13:16] us as much as it touches the

[3:13:18] inner core but it does set up a

[3:13:19] scheme to hopefully stabilize

[3:13:21] metro and also continue talking

[3:13:23] about regional transit

[3:13:24] hopefully there will be some

[3:13:26] fruits of that effort that will

[3:13:28] hopefully touch bre and be able

[3:13:29] to establish some more stable

[3:13:33] libel and frequent transit all

[3:13:35] the way down here in prince

[3:13:37] william county doses those in

[3:13:39] other jurisdictions. Also had

[3:13:49] the opportunity to pass friday

[3:13:51] to be part of the swearing-in

[3:13:53] ceremony for our new colleague

[3:13:54] supervisor stuart it was really

[3:13:57] great to meet his family I

[3:13:57] should've brought my

[3:13:58] four-year-old I didn't realize

[3:14:01] you were going to bring your

[3:14:03] four-year-olds. We have to

[3:14:04] rectify that at some point I

[3:14:06] was really happy to see that

[3:14:07] historic moment for you I

[3:14:09] wanted to celebrate you in that

[3:14:11] regard. Also friday in the

[3:14:13] morning I had a chance to go to

[3:14:15] alongside my colleagues to the

[3:14:17] ferc housing work session which

[3:14:19] it was really productive it is

[3:14:23] part of a new initiative to set

[3:14:23] aside and create a strategic

[3:14:25] plan for the northern virginia

[3:14:27] regional commission on an issue

[3:14:29] that I know is near and dear to

[3:14:31] a lot of our hearts housing now

[3:14:32] in the rc can step up and help

[3:14:34] play more regional role in

[3:14:35] helping all of the northern

[3:14:37] virginia jurisdictions tackle

[3:14:39] and find good policy and

[3:14:40] messaging around housing that

[3:14:43] was really great opportunity as

[3:14:43] well.

[3:14:45] Finally in terms of events i

[3:14:46] think that is almost dead.

[3:14:48] The last thing I will say on

[3:14:50] events as supervisor bailey

[3:14:52] said this our last meeting

[3:14:53] before the thanksgiving holiday

[3:14:55] I want to wish everybody a

[3:14:56] great thanksgiving last thing I

[3:14:59] will say on DECEMBER 2 when we

[3:15:00] come back we will be looking at

[3:15:09] the affordable dwelling unit

[3:15:11] before the housing trust fund

[3:15:13] staff put a lot of work into

[3:15:14] that I know the met with

[3:15:16] offices over the past month or

[3:15:18] so because we did adopt

[3:15:19] students back during the summer

[3:15:21] I know we are near the finish

[3:15:25] line on that.

[3:15:27] I will be sending an email to

[3:15:29] my colleagues shortly people

[3:15:30] talk about some findings my

[3:15:32] staff and I found recently in

[3:15:33] regards to that and some

[3:15:35] conversations we've had with

[3:15:36] liza johnson and jones docket

[3:15:38] about brief conversations with

[3:15:40] ken executive as well so we are

[3:15:42] almost there there are couple

[3:15:43] of tweaks I would like to

[3:15:45] consider before we adapt before

[3:15:47] the housing trust fund policy

[3:15:48] guidelines one of which is

[3:15:50] loudoun county back in JUNE

[3:15:51] adopted I should say revised

[3:15:53] and reformed the policy to

[3:15:55] develop more streamlined and

[3:15:56] more friendly to getting awards

[3:15:58] out faster frankly lot easier

[3:16:00] to understand from applicants

[3:16:03] and also this idea that some

[3:16:04] other localities in the

[3:16:06] commonwealth allow for the

[3:16:08] process of actually reporting

[3:16:10] company being administrative

[3:16:11] process versus going through

[3:16:13] the board again not proposing

[3:16:15] anything for tonight but want

[3:16:17] to give my colleagues heads up

[3:16:19] about that will send a pretty

[3:43:49] are going to start our evening

[3:43:51] session I would like to begin

[3:43:52] with 13 a with 13 ai would like

[3:43:54] to ask the applicant to come up

[3:43:55] and present to us.

[3:43:57] >> MADAM Chair if I could

[3:43:59] afford the applicant comes up

[3:44:00] and speaks I would like to note

[3:44:02] that tonight as we start to

[3:44:03] take a look at this case we

[3:44:08] will notice that there will be

[3:44:09] different from the usual cases.

[3:44:11] We've seen in the past.

[3:44:12] As you MAY be aware of the comp

[3:44:18] plan opened up shortly after

[3:44:19] the passage developers began

[3:44:21] drawing up plans to bring

[3:44:23] presidential communities to the

[3:44:25] area between sudley manor drive

[3:44:26] and rawlins ford road now

[3:44:28] renters of other commitments of

[3:44:30] the smart growth sustainable

[3:44:31] peripheral plan for road

[3:44:36] schools parks please inquire

[3:44:39] the mistakes of overdevelopment

[3:44:41] before road schools and several

[3:44:42] services already are what led

[3:44:44] to the challenges we saw in the

[3:44:46] 2000 along lindholm road and a

[3:44:47] severe opposition to further

[3:44:49] develop meant at the time

[3:44:51] unfortunately the bad memories

[3:45:01] of that approach still linger

[3:45:03] for many in our community when

[3:45:05] I saw that seven members were

[3:45:06] being proposed I sat down with

[3:45:09] the developers and asked him to

[3:45:10] take a different approach.

[3:45:12] Noting that the whole would be

[3:45:13] greater than the sum of the

[3:45:15] parts I asked him to come up

[3:45:16] with a unified approach to

[3:45:18] roads parks and schools fire

[3:45:20] and police to community design

[3:45:21] along ben hill rd. And other

[3:45:23] elements. While there are legal

[3:45:25] limitations imposed by the gen.

[3:45:28] Assembly and how far we can go

[3:45:31] resort to work within the

[3:45:32] parameters we have district the

[3:45:34] right balance tonight is the

[3:45:35] first case we will see that

[3:45:37] incorporates a unified plan a

[3:45:38] lot of work over the past

[3:45:40] nearly 2 years has been put

[3:45:42] into identifying the challenges

[3:45:43] engaging with neighboring

[3:45:45] communities and seeking

[3:45:46] solutions to address the

[3:45:47] challenges.

[3:45:49] My hope is that this helps us

[3:45:51] take a smarter more holistic

[3:45:52] approach to development I

[3:45:54] appreciate county staff support

[3:45:56] for this approach particularly

[3:45:58] those within our transportation

[3:46:01] planning departments and I hope

[3:46:02] this will better serve our

[3:46:04] county going forward thank you

[3:46:05] MADAM Chair.

[3:46:07] >> Chair Jefferson: that you so

[3:46:08] very much.

[3:47:07] and landscaping treatments

[3:47:10] foot buffer along ben hill rd.

[3:47:12] And many other measures to

[3:47:13] assure a quality of design that

[3:47:15] would be a benchmark along ben

[3:47:16] hill rd.

[3:47:18] And be continued throughout the

[3:47:19] length of ben hill rd.

[3:47:20] As supervisor gordy was

[3:48:08] dwelling in $3900 per single

[3:48:10] family attached in addition to

[3:48:12] the dedication of a 10.5 acre

[3:48:14] property that brookfield owns

[3:48:16] that is a long broad run it is

[3:48:17] somewhat separated from the

[3:48:20] site it fills in the missing

[3:48:21] link of the broad run linear

[3:48:22] trail that is along linton hall

[3:48:24] road. There are 310 foot wide

[3:48:26] shared use path's the trails

[3:48:28] paved asphalt trails along ben

[3:48:28] hill rd.

[3:48:30] 1 both sides of ben hill rd. I

[3:48:32] will cover that were in the

[3:48:33] transportation section there

[3:48:35] will be one notably also that

[3:48:36] will extended northward from

[3:48:38] ben hill rd. This development

[3:48:40] to connect to the adjoining

[3:48:42] property so it will eventually

[3:48:44] become a connection to the

[3:48:45] direct connection to the broad

[3:48:46] run linear trail.

[3:48:48] That is north of this property.

[3:48:50] There is a $17,000 per unit

[3:48:51] contribution both townhouses

[3:48:53] and single-family detached for

[3:48:55] the improvement of ben hill rd.

[3:48:57] And many of the details about

[3:48:59] the improvement of the road

[3:49:01] that will be covered further on

[3:49:02] in the application for the

[3:49:04] discussion. The property is 55

[3:49:11] acres it is the conference of

[3:49:12] planets calling for 1-4

[3:49:14] dwelling units per acre the

[3:49:15] existing zoning is a applicant

[3:49:17] is proposing three dwelling

[3:49:20] units per acre or total of 168

[3:49:22] it dwelling units there will be

[3:49:24] 151 market rate dwelling units

[3:49:29] at different price points and

[3:49:31] they will be affordable

[3:49:33] commitment to affordable

[3:49:34] workforce housing of 17 minutes

[3:49:36] that is 10% of the total 46%

[3:49:38] open space which is generous

[3:49:39] open space area of a project of

[3:49:43] this size.

[3:49:45] Housing chapter of the

[3:49:46] conference of plan knows the

[3:49:48] area in fact the entire nation

[3:49:51] is facing a significant housing

[3:49:53] shortage the net result of that

[3:49:58] is escalating housing prices

[3:50:00] the comprehensive plan does two

[3:50:02] things in that regard it

[3:50:04] encourages a diversity of

[3:50:06] housing at different price

[3:50:07] points which this project

[3:50:09] includes it also encourages the

[3:50:11] provision of affordable housing

[3:50:13] and workforce housing which

[3:50:15] this application also provides

[3:50:28] it will be eight households

[3:50:29] eight homes that will be

[3:50:31] constructed that will be

[3:50:32] affordable to households

[3:50:34] earning 80% of the area median

[3:50:36] income and then home still be

[3:50:37] affordable to households

[3:50:39] earning 120% of the area median

[3:50:41] income balance of the homes

[3:50:43] will be considered market rate

[3:50:45] homes as you can see from this

[3:50:46] exhibit house types are varied

[3:50:46] by with.

[3:50:52] In this case we are

[3:50:54] talking about a 70 foot wide

[3:50:55] lot with that affects the width

[3:50:57] of the house that affects the

[3:50:58] size of the homes some of the

[3:51:00] single family detached will be

[3:51:02] smaller lots houses will follow

[3:51:04] that in comparison to the size

[3:51:05] of them then with respect to

[3:51:07] the single family attached it's

[3:51:09] a little bit easier to see a

[3:51:11] direct relationship between the

[3:51:14] lot size and the unit with but

[3:51:16] there will be 24 foot wide

[3:51:18] single-family attached 20 foot

[3:51:20] and 16 foot wide single-family

[3:51:22] attached. This provides you a

[3:51:24] mixture of five different

[3:51:25] housing styles that gives you a

[3:51:27] diversity of price points that

[3:51:29] is something that is very badly

[3:51:30] needed in the market.

[3:51:32] At the planning commission in

[3:51:34] FEBRUARY we heard from a

[3:51:35] neighbor that owns this

[3:51:37] property here accesses 6 acres,

[3:51:39] it's immediately adjacent to

[3:51:40] the strathmore proposal

[3:51:42] strathmore has a 50 foot buffer

[3:51:43] against that property this

[3:51:49] neighbor was very interested in

[3:51:50] what the impacts might be or

[3:51:52] how that was going to affect

[3:51:54] their enjoyment of their own.

[3:51:54] The property

[3:51:56] is outlined here in

[3:51:58] this aerial photograph, that

[3:51:59] issue has been resolved

[3:52:00] brookfield met with them they

[3:52:02] have the property under

[3:52:03] contract now this property will

[3:52:06] be purchased by brookfield they

[3:52:08] have a good arrangement between

[3:52:14] the two of them for their

[3:52:15] transitioning from the site

[3:52:17] settlement would occur after

[3:52:18] the rezoning. Then there will

[3:52:20] be some time for them to take

[3:52:23] their time to relocate

[3:52:25] eventually brookfield will

[3:52:26] probably come in with the

[3:52:28] rezoning for this piece of

[3:52:30] property it is in nonconforming

[3:52:32] a1 zone lot you can see from

[3:52:33] this photograph there is a

[3:52:35] large water feature upon the

[3:52:36] property you cannot quite make

[3:52:38] it out but there is a stream

[3:52:40] that comes into the property

[3:52:42] through here it is pretty much

[3:52:43] environmentally constrained

[3:52:46] there will be no significant

[3:52:47] increase in the number of

[3:52:49] dwelling units as a result of

[3:52:53] this when it comes in later on.

[3:52:55] Schools is always a very

[3:52:56] important component of the

[3:52:57] analysis you heard supervisor

[3:52:59] gordy mentioned earlier school

[3:53:01] capacity in enrollment is

[3:53:03] something we give careful

[3:53:05] consideration the analysis of

[3:53:06] available school capacity in

[3:53:12] this area focus to some

[3:53:13] challenges that the school

[3:53:15] system is facing. Those

[3:53:17] challenges include instances

[3:53:18] where there are schools that

[3:53:21] are substantially overcrowded

[3:53:25] and the schools that are being

[3:53:27] utilized under capacity. If a

[3:53:29] school is being utilized in the

[3:53:30] capacity and it is not

[3:53:32] operating efficiently sometimes

[3:53:34] they do not have sufficient

[3:53:36] funding to provide the special

[3:53:37] programs that are expected in

[3:53:39] the community. There is a

[3:53:41] negative impact of being under

[3:53:43] enrolled if you will there is a

[3:53:44] declining public school

[3:53:50] enrollment across the county we

[3:53:51] were not able to get a

[3:53:53] memorandum this is an issue

[3:53:55] that is still unfolding for the

[3:53:56] school board there will have to

[3:53:58] be making some difficult

[3:54:00] decisions in the future to

[3:54:01] address these challenges what

[3:54:04] we provided this evening is a

[3:54:06] collection of public statements

[3:54:08] that have been in the media

[3:54:10] about their recommendation this

[3:54:11] is an issue that gets resolved

[3:54:14] at their level possibly through

[3:54:16] school district as through the

[3:54:17] school assignments which I will

[3:54:19] show you an example of in the

[3:54:21] second. The knoxville school

[3:54:22] provides elementary and middle

[3:54:24] school education for this site

[3:54:26] at the present time when the

[3:54:27] district boundaries are drawn.

[3:54:29] The knoxville school is

[3:54:29] overcapacity.

[3:54:31] The brentsville district

[3:54:33] article is under capacity it

[3:54:35] has available capacity to serve

[3:54:36] the needs of this particular

[3:54:36] project.

[3:54:41] We mentioned let's

[3:54:50] see, I think I skipped a slide.

[3:55:02] I did.

[3:55:04] This is showing the declining

[3:55:06] enrollment challenges the

[3:55:08] school board is facing there is

[3:55:09] been a's persistent reduction

[3:55:11] over the past seven years of

[3:55:12] 3000 students fewer than are

[3:55:14] enrolled in county schools in

[3:55:16] the next four years there is

[3:55:18] expectation that another 43,000

[3:55:19] students would be in the system

[3:55:20] if you will.

[3:55:28] [Unclear audio] The boundaries

[3:55:31] of the seven applications that

[3:55:34] supervisor gordy mentioned that

[3:55:36] were requested to do a

[3:55:38] collaborative effort to analyze

[3:55:42] the theme public infrastructure

[3:55:43] impacts that would come from

[3:55:45] the collective results of these

[3:55:50] different developments.

[3:55:52] There was a lot of focus on

[3:55:53] schools and transportation

[3:55:55] there was some significant

[3:55:56] challenges there.

[3:55:58] The conclusions of this

[3:55:58] , worked

[3:56:09] up the $5000 per unit monetary

[3:56:10] contribution would be

[3:56:11] consistent with the impacts

[3:56:13] that were being created and

[3:56:15] consistent with the state code

[3:56:16] parameters for providing

[3:56:18] monetary providing for

[3:56:20] offsetting impacts of public

[3:56:22] infrastructure. Also the other

[3:56:23] would rezoning is dedicating a

[3:56:24] middle school site.

[3:56:26] On this map you see then hill

[3:56:28] road coming through the

[3:56:30] property this alignment here is

[3:56:32] sutley manor road the

[3:56:32] development did you see over

[3:56:36] here is.

[3:56:38] [Listing names] There is quite

[3:56:40] a bit of residential

[3:56:42] development in this area

[3:56:43] suburban residential type

[3:56:44] development on the north side

[3:56:46] of ben hill wrote today about

[3:56:48] this out of the view is

[3:56:50] kingsburg development that is

[3:56:52] asked by by linville road it is

[3:56:53] coming in the direction of

[3:56:55] linda hall road corridor.

[3:56:56] Trathmore is outlined right

[3:56:57] here we recommend the shape

[3:57:03] here there's a gold color to

[3:57:05] try to help it stand out these

[3:57:07] other applications have been

[3:57:08] filed most of these have been

[3:57:10] filed by other applicants

[3:57:11] brookfield has recently filed

[3:57:13] the silver bell case that is

[3:57:16] been into the county for a

[3:57:18] little over six weeks we are

[3:57:20] awaiting comments on the first

[3:57:22] review.

[3:57:26] The applicant in the master

[3:57:27] develop and study came up with

[3:57:35] a commonsense type of approach

[3:57:37] that could be used for selling

[3:57:38] students from these

[3:57:39] developments to existing

[3:57:40] schools in the area.

[3:57:42] It would relieve the capacity

[3:57:45] problems at knoxville school.

[3:57:47] This is not this chart showing

[3:57:49] how students would flow from

[3:57:51] elementary school to middle

[3:57:53] school twice school is not

[3:57:55] requiring the redistricting of

[3:57:56] any students that are currently

[3:57:58] attending school.

[3:57:59] These are from vacant parcels

[3:58:00] that are part of this rezoning

[3:58:02] or these seven rezoning

[3:58:03] applications that we talk

[3:58:04] about.

[3:58:05] Actually I'm sorry there were

[3:58:08] an additional six proposals

[3:58:10] that were added to the analysis

[3:58:11] there were six zoning cases

[3:58:14] that had been approved or were

[3:58:16] very near approval going

[3:58:18] through the system those were

[3:58:20] added. When it comes to schools

[3:58:22] analysis we are not analyzing

[3:58:26] just the seven applicants that

[3:58:31] we've given the title

[3:58:33] application where including six

[3:58:35] other applications there in the

[3:58:36] vicinity and also served by the

[3:58:41] same schools I have several

[3:58:42] slides to give you a sense of

[3:58:44] what the enrollments are at the

[3:58:45] present time and what they

[3:58:50] would be as a result of this

[3:58:51] development this late

[3:58:53] projection up to 2037 you see

[3:58:59] here that for the elementary

[3:59:03] school level the glenn kirk

[3:59:07] elementary school after the

[3:59:09] projected students that are

[3:59:11] based on without the approval

[3:59:18] of the seven cases, then read

[3:59:19] these cases into the mix there

[3:59:21] are still hundred 59 and the

[3:59:24] seats capacity beyond what is

[3:59:26] being required for the

[3:59:27] developments. Cedar point

[3:59:29] elementary school you have a

[3:59:30] similar margin it's still 51

[3:59:32] empty seat after all of these

[3:59:34] rezoning's are addressed.

[3:59:37] Through the assignment process

[3:59:41] that is been proposed for rt

[3:59:42] clay would after all of the

[3:59:44] students are added would have

[3:59:46] 124 empty seats what is

[3:59:49] striking about these charts is

[3:59:55] uc that these schools and the

[3:59:56] school are 50% or below

[4:00:00] capacity without some type of

[4:00:01] growth being added to those.

[4:00:04] Which is problematic.

[4:00:06] This is the same type of format

[4:00:13] we have the force dollar middle

[4:00:14] school even after the addition

[4:00:16] of the 13 cases you have

[4:00:18] hundred and 10 empty seats that

[4:00:20] is including the 210 seat

[4:00:26] expansion that is in the 2028

[4:00:28] cip. It will be funded with a

[4:00:29] $5000 per unit contribution

[4:00:31] would come from this

[4:00:32] application and the other vint

[4:00:34] hill applicants. Over

[4:00:36] gainesville middle school same

[4:00:38] thing only there would be 398

[4:00:39] empty seats after the addition

[4:00:41] of all three of these all 13 of

[4:00:43] these proposals.

[4:00:45] Then high school again sort of

[4:00:50] the same situation patriot high

[4:00:51] school would have 534 empty

[4:00:54] seats afterwards gainesville

[4:00:56] high school but have 81 seats.

[4:00:58] What we tried to propose is a

[4:01:05] commonsense way of distributing

[4:01:07] the students that will be

[4:01:09] generated by this new growth as

[4:01:10] opposed to saying that you have

[4:01:18] to redistrict existing

[4:01:20] communities which is always a

[4:01:22] very sensitive point. There MAY

[4:01:24] be some other efficiencies that

[4:01:26] the school board games and they

[4:01:27] decide to buy redistricting

[4:01:29] that is a decision that would

[4:01:30] be up to them we think there is

[4:01:32] an opportunity here to address

[4:01:33] the need.

[4:01:34] With respect to the vint hill

[4:01:36] road widening and making it

[4:01:38] consistent there is a design

[4:01:40] that is been agreed upon by the

[4:01:44] vint hill road developers they

[4:01:46] have agreed to this 120 foot

[4:01:48] right-of-way section to see

[4:01:49] right here there will be two

[4:01:51] lanes in each direction 16 foot

[4:01:53] median and a 10 foot wide

[4:01:54] shared use path on both sides

[4:01:56] of the road which is not

[4:01:58] required in the normal county

[4:01:59] standards or aetna v.Standards

[4:02:01] in addition to that there is a

[4:02:03] utility easement and a 50 foot

[4:02:05] landscape buffer along both

[4:02:07] sides of the road which is also

[4:02:08] not required under the existing

[4:02:10] standards requirement.

[4:02:12] This exhibit is showing for

[4:02:19] same project that all of the

[4:02:21] projects that are part of the

[4:02:23] proposal these are the traffic

[4:02:24] generating vint hill

[4:02:27] applications the strathmore

[4:02:28] piece is right here again.

[4:02:36] With respect to strathmore

[4:02:38] there is no negative impact on

[4:02:39] the level of service or

[4:02:41] capacity on the vint hill road.

[4:02:43] It is only through the

[4:02:45] participation and collaborative

[4:02:46] effort that strathmore is

[4:02:49] obligated to provide additional

[4:02:51] improvements and monetary

[4:02:52] contributions to make sure that

[4:02:55] vint hill road has a uniform

[4:02:56] cross-section and is built in a

[4:02:57] way that is addressing the

[4:02:59] needs of growth.

[4:03:01] The proffers that are being

[4:03:04] proposed provide for the

[4:03:12] oversight of a development

[4:03:14] agreement coordinated effort by

[4:03:16] the prince william county

[4:03:18] department of transportation

[4:03:20] there is a commitment to join

[4:03:22] develop meant agreement by the

[4:03:23] applicant's will be dedication

[4:03:25] of right away and monetary

[4:03:26] contributions to the county or

[4:03:28] to the joint development fund

[4:03:29] and phasing that assures that

[4:03:31] the impacts of home

[4:03:32] construction to not get ahead

[4:03:34] of the road construction and

[4:03:36] road level of service. I think

[4:03:37] that was a very important

[4:03:38] feature that supervisor gordy

[4:03:51] wanted to attain from this.

[4:03:53] There also provisions for

[4:03:55] interim improvements is

[4:03:56] necessary to maintain the

[4:03:58] levels of service if the

[4:03:59] opportunity arises for the

[4:04:01] county to be able to leverage

[4:04:02] the additional improvements in

[4:04:04] the corridor through taking

[4:04:06] direct supervision of the

[4:04:08] deconstruction of these road

[4:04:10] improvements the county has the

[4:04:11] flexibility to do that if we

[4:04:13] take all the funding being

[4:04:14] provided by the joint

[4:04:16] development agreement fund and

[4:04:17] use that for road construction.

[4:04:19] This is a flowchart prepared by

[4:04:21] the transportation department

[4:04:23] to keep track of the different

[4:04:24] pieces would go.

[4:04:26] I'm going to try to summarize

[4:04:28] that very briefly the first

[4:04:29] column here is the first

[4:04:31] scenario is actually just if

[4:04:32] one reason we submitted that

[4:04:34] lays out how they funding would

[4:04:36] be collected then the applicant

[4:04:38] would complete clearing and

[4:04:39] grading across their property

[4:04:42] and provide improvements

[4:04:43] necessary to maintain the

[4:04:45] levels of service. They also

[4:04:46] dedicate the right way.

[4:04:48] The second scenario is if all

[4:04:50] of these seven or 11 zoning I'm

[4:04:52] getting the numbers mixed up

[4:04:53] all seven cases that were part

[4:04:58] of the transportation agreement

[4:05:00] are approved in that instance

[4:05:02] you have really two columns

[4:05:05] this is just decision points

[4:05:07] made along the way but you have

[4:05:08] two columns because the first

[4:05:10] column is indicating the

[4:05:12] developers are completing the

[4:05:23] road through their joint

[4:05:25] element agreement through their

[4:05:27] private clinician overseen by

[4:05:29] the prince william county

[4:05:31] transportation department the

[4:05:33] other column is in the event

[4:05:35] the prince william county

[4:05:36] trepidation department decides

[4:05:38] it would like to take the

[4:05:39] project and provided direct

[4:05:40] supervision.

[4:05:42] That would presumably happen if

[4:05:43] there is a wait to get

[4:05:45] regularly sharing funds or

[4:05:46] additional funding that would

[4:05:48] allow them to leverage things

[4:05:50] and get bit better and more

[4:05:51] improvement in that quarter.

[4:05:53] Then the final scenario here is

[4:05:54] for in the event over several

[4:05:56] of the seven applications that

[4:05:58] are part of the transportation

[4:06:01] agreement would be approved

[4:06:02] operationally is the same as

[4:06:04] this over here there still

[4:06:06] decision where the county can

[4:06:07] take it over if the county does

[4:06:09] not take over there is a joint

[4:06:11] develop meant agreement and

[4:06:12] improvements will be provided

[4:06:14] in a phased fashion and in a

[4:06:15] way that will maintain levels

[4:06:18] of service throughout the

[4:06:19] length of the concept area for

[4:06:20] the improvements to vint hill

[4:06:21] road.

[4:06:22] This concludes the presentation

[4:06:25] the applicant is addressing the

[4:06:27] prince william county needs as

[4:06:28] well as the master development

[4:06:29] plan is looking at the prince

[4:06:31] william county needs for

[4:06:33] schools particularly

[4:06:35] transportation it is compatible

[4:06:36] with the densities that are in

[4:06:38] the area of the development

[4:06:40] area of the project obviously

[4:06:40] .

[4:06:41] [Listing names] Which is a

[4:06:43] large plant community school

[4:06:45] assignments are suggested that

[4:06:48] could avoid the issue that,

[4:06:50] from redistricting but that is

[4:06:52] truly a schoolboard discussion

[4:06:54] that needs to be made at a

[4:06:55] later date. But the vint hill

[4:06:57] road four-lane improvements on

[4:06:59] the part of this application

[4:07:01] and the agreement between the

[4:07:02] collaborative effort that

[4:07:05] really stands out from all the

[4:07:07] earth is only cases that I've

[4:07:09] witnessed the time I've been

[4:07:10] around here in doing this. This

[4:07:12] is really pretty exceptional

[4:07:14] type of project that has been

[4:07:16] undertaken I think everyone

[4:07:18] involved transportation

[4:07:19] department as well as the

[4:07:21] different applicants are to be

[4:07:22] commended for this effort.

[4:07:24] If you have any questions I'd

[4:07:26] be happy to answer them.

[4:07:28] >> Chair Jefferson: I don't see

[4:07:29] anything in the queue.

[4:07:31] Thank you so very much we will

[4:07:41] now go on to the county.

[4:07:49] >> Scott Meyer: planning

[4:07:51] office. As sherman pointed out

[4:07:53] that this project has been a

[4:07:58] collaborative effort for the

[4:07:59] vint hill corridor this is been

[4:08:01] in process for just about 2.5

[4:08:03] years to clarify it is counter

[4:08:05] numerous different iterations

[4:08:08] of different layout changes it

[4:08:10] initially went to the planning

[4:08:12] commission in FEBRUARY then it

[4:08:14] went to the planning commission

[4:08:15] for final action in MAY then it

[4:08:17] went to the planning commission

[4:08:19] for final action in MAY 2025,

[4:08:21] there has been a lot of

[4:08:23] coordination with the various

[4:08:24] applicants parties in this

[4:08:26] corridor just to kind of point

[4:08:30] that out.

[4:08:32] you've been oriented with the

[4:08:33] site busier this is strathmore

[4:08:35] this is the first project in

[4:08:38] the seven the 720 quarter

[4:08:40] projects to which sherman was

[4:08:41] mentioning just to clarify this

[4:08:42] is the first project in the

[4:08:50] density is 3.03 dwelling units

[4:08:52] per acre proposed bridge which

[4:08:53] we feel is very much in line

[4:08:58] with the 1-4 in the residential

[4:09:00] expected densities. Staff is

[4:09:02] recommended approval is 55

[4:09:12] acres we will have a total of

[4:09:13] 168 residential units

[4:09:15] consisting of single-family

[4:09:17] detached and single-family

[4:09:18] attached all of the affordable

[4:09:21] units are the single-family

[4:09:22] attached there is various

[4:09:24] widths and so forth that

[4:09:25] sherman mentioned just wanted

[4:09:27] to get your orientation on that

[4:09:28] matter this is on the north

[4:09:30] side of vint hill road. Just to

[4:09:32] clarify that this is and what

[4:09:34] is the development area braemar

[4:09:36] is to the east you will see

[4:09:38] right here we are looking for

[4:09:39] compatibility that is not to

[4:09:41] ignore the fact that there is a

[4:09:46] massive infrastructure outlay

[4:09:48] for this whole area. This is

[4:09:49] drastically going to change the

[4:09:51] whole corridor of this area we

[4:09:53] have been in coordination with

[4:09:54] the applicant and know

[4:09:56] supervisor gordy office has

[4:09:57] been doing a lot of endeavors

[4:09:59] with that. This is where we are

[4:10:00] right now is currently zoned

[4:10:11] a-1 just to give you an idea.

[4:10:12] This is showing all project

[4:10:14] right here I just marked with

[4:10:16] red start the strathmore

[4:10:17] product again just the first

[4:10:19] one that is before the board

[4:10:21] this is showing material this

[4:10:23] in the context of the project

[4:10:25] the frontage improvements are

[4:10:27] being made there is a proposed

[4:10:31] realignment of pioneer drive

[4:10:33] there is a roundabout that is

[4:10:35] ultimately proposed in this

[4:10:35] area.

[4:10:37] We are focusing here on the

[4:10:39] strathmore site itself.

[4:10:40] This is from the design

[4:10:47] guidelines as sherman mentioned

[4:10:49] there numerous connections to

[4:10:51] the external part of the site

[4:10:52] is just trying to give you an

[4:10:54] orientation of any perspective

[4:10:55] of how it will link to the

[4:10:57] other projects greenhaven to

[4:10:59] the east the village of broad

[4:11:01] run to the west although what

[4:11:02] is on the south side of vint

[4:11:04] hill road and as sherman

[4:11:06] mentioned the stewart project

[4:11:08] property bargaining is now

[4:11:10] under contract it was cold

[4:11:11] outside before we are looking

[4:11:13] at 50 foot contiguous buffer

[4:11:16] along the frontage that was

[4:11:18] another very important aspect

[4:11:24] of this along with different

[4:11:26] easements and so forth. This is

[4:11:28] showing the layout again not to

[4:11:30] go into a lot of detail, the

[4:11:31] affordable most affordable

[4:11:33] units are in the interior part

[4:11:35] of the site here in yellow, all

[4:11:38] the single-family attached we

[4:11:41] have single-family detached,

[4:11:41] throughout the site 46% open

[4:11:48] space which we feel is quite

[4:11:50] noted this from the master

[4:11:51] zoning plan which sherman has

[4:12:02] talked about. One of the

[4:12:04] environmental things just to

[4:12:05] mention is that the

[4:12:06] prioritization of the resources

[4:12:08] we had some discussion with

[4:12:10] over time we feel we are in a

[4:12:11] better spot now than we were

[4:12:13] before there is a 55 inch wide

[4:12:15] what you think is the county

[4:12:20] champions the white oak the

[4:12:21] applicant is doing significant

[4:12:23] strides to save it but however

[4:12:25] we are still concerned about

[4:12:27] how well this will be done in

[4:12:28] total because the applicant on

[4:12:30] the west side of the village

[4:12:32] side is not doing exactly what

[4:12:33] this applicant is doing what

[4:12:35] you do when you have a tree on

[4:12:37] the property line can do the

[4:12:39] best you can on your side. I

[4:12:41] just want to mention that as

[4:12:43] well this is included in a

[4:12:44] self-report vint hill

[4:12:46] improvement concept plan this

[4:12:48] is the current alignment of

[4:12:48] pioneer.

[4:12:50] This is in the back of the

[4:12:52] staff report there will be a

[4:12:53] roundabout plan here we feel

[4:12:55] the applicant is doing their

[4:12:57] share forth their impacts to

[4:12:59] the axis improvements along the

[4:13:00] frontage.

[4:13:01] These are from the design

[4:13:03] guidelines of single-family

[4:13:05] detached single-family

[4:13:07] attached. There is a modified

[4:13:08] townhouse detail which is

[4:13:10] allowing for reduction of 16

[4:13:11] feet in width we feel this

[4:13:13] provides the variety of houses

[4:13:15] that were looking for in this

[4:13:16] area there is also a berm

[4:13:18] utility easement it took a

[4:13:19] while to get to this point this

[4:13:22] is just showing different

[4:13:24] perspectives there is entrance

[4:13:31] features we try to look for

[4:13:33] continuity with the site and

[4:13:35] the other sites I cannot speak

[4:13:36] to all the other sites since

[4:13:38] this is the first one without

[4:13:40] disabilities going to set the

[4:13:41] trend for what happens down the

[4:13:43] stream with the other

[4:13:44] developments.

[4:13:45] This is another perspective

[4:13:47] here with the staff report we

[4:13:49] feel all the planning

[4:13:51] components are consistent

[4:13:52] environment want to point out

[4:13:55] that these are still permitting

[4:13:56] weaknesses that I need to

[4:13:58] mention because were telling

[4:14:00] all sides in our analysis feels

[4:14:02] the applicant has done a really

[4:14:04] commendable job with their

[4:14:07] impacts to these best ministry

[4:14:08] at white oak but we feel that

[4:14:10] we still are not sure how

[4:14:12] successful that would be in

[4:14:14] time with the other development

[4:14:16] to the west there are residual

[4:14:17] impacts to on-site wetlands

[4:14:19] extremes overall could feel the

[4:14:24] applicant has observed the lay

[4:14:26] of the land and resources with

[4:14:28] the schools, there is available

[4:14:35] hospital capacity staff has not

[4:14:37] vetted the additional analysis

[4:14:39] that the applicant is done for

[4:14:41] schools. Just to point out the

[4:14:43] combined applicants have done

[4:14:44] their separate analysis for

[4:14:46] this corridor and it vint hill

[4:14:48] for schools this is included in

[4:14:50] the back of my staff report.

[4:14:51] Sherman spent a lot of time

[4:14:53] talking about schools

[4:14:55] redistricting. My planning

[4:14:57] staff report does not get into

[4:14:57] that scope.

[4:14:59] We are going by what schools

[4:15:01] has provided us it goes back to

[4:15:04] MARCH 2025 redistricting and

[4:15:06] other things is another

[4:15:08] conversation to be had I know

[4:15:09] supervisor gordy we discussed

[4:15:11] that.

[4:15:13] We just have not done a lot of

[4:15:14] additional analysis with

[4:15:14] schools.

[4:15:15] We feel that there is a level

[4:15:23] of uncertainty based on

[4:15:24] assumptions that are made we

[4:15:26] feel with the monetary

[4:15:27] contribution that is provided

[4:15:28] the extra capacity the trends

[4:15:35] in producing yield from others

[4:15:39] developments will have on

[4:15:41] schools we feel it will be

[4:15:42] mitigated we can only speak to

[4:15:44] the analysis the schools have

[4:15:45] given us.

[4:15:47] Just want to mention that as

[4:15:48] well.

[4:15:49] Also there was quarter study

[4:15:51] which was kicked off last small

[4:15:53] area plan for the vint hill

[4:15:56] corridor that was last night of

[4:16:07] course the timing of this

[4:16:08] strathmore has been in the

[4:16:10] pipeline for a long time

[4:16:11] strathmore is before you

[4:16:14] tonight but the small area plan

[4:16:15] was officially kicked off last

[4:16:17] night by the planning office

[4:16:19] with these different products

[4:16:20] we now have more formal

[4:16:22] guidance and help we are going

[4:16:24] to assess the cumulative impact

[4:16:26] in this quarter. I also want to

[4:16:28] mention the process timing of

[4:16:29] the small area plan is in its

[4:16:31] early stages obviously those

[4:16:33] impacts are not known right now

[4:16:34] strathmore has done as much as

[4:16:36] it could have done given the

[4:16:38] timing and its evolution over

[4:16:39] time.

[4:16:40] We feel we are in a supportable

[4:16:43] spot with the application

[4:16:45] planning commission did

[4:16:47] ultimately recommend approval

[4:16:49] with proffers they did it in

[4:16:56] JANUARY there was additional

[4:16:58] consideration by the board of

[4:16:59] county supervisors that was

[4:17:01] made they've been reflected in

[4:17:05] the proffers we are permitting

[4:17:06] are provoked with the proffers

[4:17:08] dated OCTOBER 3 we feel the

[4:17:10] density is consistent it is a

[4:17:11] cohesive plan makes development

[4:17:13] we need rooftops if it feels

[4:17:15] different affordable housing

[4:17:23] needs.

[4:17:24] It's in line with various

[4:17:26] objectives of the strategic

[4:17:28] plan reduced transportation

[4:17:29] staff here we have also

[4:17:31] environment. Here of course the

[4:17:32] applicant and I am happy to

[4:17:34] answer any questions for you

[4:17:35] thank you very much.

[4:17:37] >> Chair Jefferson: anybody

[4:17:38] have any questions for staff?

[4:17:40] All right supervisor stewart.

[4:17:42] >> George Stewart: I have a

[4:18:05] question for transportation.

[4:18:07] By the look of the overall?

[4:18:09] It appears from the least we

[4:18:10] have four lanes with things

[4:18:12] down to two lanes open back up

[4:18:14] to four lanes and back down to

[4:18:15] two lanes. Once more open up

[4:18:17] the four lanes for very short

[4:18:19] period of time back down to two

[4:18:19] lanes.

[4:18:21] According to the traffic

[4:18:22] study there is going to be

[4:18:24] 23,000 more trips have you

[4:18:26] first of all coordinated with.

[4:18:28] [Listing names] County so they

[4:18:29] can handle that much traffic

[4:18:31] coming their way [Listing

[4:18:32] names] County so they can

[4:18:34] handle that much traffic coming

[4:18:36] their way, #1, and number two

[4:18:36] why not

[4:18:38] just make it four lanes

[4:18:40] all the way through to avoid

[4:18:41] bottlenecking it occurs to me

[4:18:43] you will get bottlenecking

[4:18:45] anyway once you enter.

[4:18:46] [Listing names].

[4:18:47] >> department of

[4:18:49] transportation. Supervisor

[4:18:50] stewart great?

[4:18:52] I will start with your first

[4:18:55] regarding coordination in terms

[4:18:56] of the traffic analysis we work

[4:19:01] with the applicant and v.The

[4:19:03] study area typically when we

[4:19:05] look at a rezoning like this or

[4:19:06] multiple in an area we look at

[4:19:08] a specific study area we

[4:19:09] typically don't go beyond the

[4:19:12] limits especially if it's in a

[4:19:13] different county unless it's

[4:19:15] adjacent to a neighboring

[4:19:15] county.

[4:19:17] N our comp plan we

[4:19:18] have vint hill's four lanes

[4:19:19] between rollins fourth road and

[4:19:31] route 28 west of rollins fourth

[4:19:33] road comes to length there are

[4:19:34] certain assumptions made to

[4:19:36] answer your question we do not

[4:19:37] coordinate with.

[4:19:37] [Listing names]

[4:19:39] County we focus

[4:19:41] within the study area at the

[4:19:42] intersections that play.

[4:19:43] >> can address your other

[4:19:46] question when it comes to the

[4:19:47] widening.

[4:19:48] [Listing names] Is our

[4:19:49] transportation case planner

[4:19:51] he's been heavily involved away

[4:19:51] the

[4:19:53] vint hill corridor is

[4:19:54] developed is essentially 2

[4:19:56] miles widening between.

[4:20:04] [Listing names] And cattle run

[4:20:06] when we look at the widening we

[4:20:07] look at impact electric and tio

[4:20:09] for different days look that

[4:20:11] developments individually also

[4:20:17] looked at development as a

[4:20:19] whole to include the seven that

[4:20:21] we are discussing. But that tia

[4:20:22] showed was impacts to several

[4:20:24] key intersections within the 2

[4:20:26] mile corridor since the focus

[4:20:28] of the lightning was within the

[4:20:29] 2 mile corridor.

[4:20:31] >> George Stewart: that doesn't

[4:20:33] exactly answer my question I

[4:20:35] will put more in a flat footed

[4:20:39] parts before collecting that

[4:20:41] bend in the road to the west

[4:20:42] that is more of a blind corner

[4:20:44] the point is this is a very

[4:20:46] dangerous rural road to have

[4:20:47] been fatalities and other

[4:20:49] accidents, is that part of the

[4:20:51] road not being widened because

[4:20:52] proffers did not want to be

[4:20:54] given for that specific area to

[4:21:12] make the whole thing for lanes

[4:21:13] all the way through.

[4:21:15] >> it was part of the oral

[4:21:17] discussion with one of the

[4:21:18] things we look at when we

[4:21:20] looked at the quarter

[4:21:22] improvement was the roadway

[4:21:23] improvement we want to look at

[4:21:24] what is feasible within the

[4:21:26] number of developments coming

[4:21:28] in and the improvements being

[4:21:29] proposed when it comes to

[4:21:31] safety that is something

[4:21:31] we

[4:21:33] looked at the applicant is

[4:21:34] relying as part of the cattle

[4:21:35] run case there relighting

[4:21:36] the

[4:21:38] curve in the road one of the

[4:21:39] things we work with the

[4:21:40] applicant on is the roundabout

[4:21:42] and allison asked alex when he

[4:21:44] returns from 2-4 lanes around

[4:21:46] about will serve as a traffic

[4:21:48] control but a safety measure as

[4:21:50] you transition from 2-4 lanes.

[4:21:51] >> George Stewart: no more

[4:21:52] questions.

[4:21:52] School and.

[4:21:54] >> Yesli Vega: come back.

[4:21:56] I have just a few questions I

[4:21:57] will ask for very brief

[4:21:59] responses so I don't run out of

[4:22:01] time and later manager if there

[4:22:03] is another opportunity for

[4:22:05] folks to expand they can do so.

[4:22:07] Based on discussions with my

[4:22:08] office on the 13th we were

[4:22:10] informed that the currently the

[4:22:12] only reason vint hill needs

[4:22:13] widening is because of the

[4:22:15] proposed projects on the table.

[4:22:19] Is that still the understanding

[4:22:20] .

[4:22:21] >> that is correct.

[4:22:23] >> Yesli Vega: my question is

[4:22:25] understanding that this project

[4:22:26] stands alone for scrutiny for

[4:22:28] the products plan to come to

[4:22:29] the area are related as they

[4:22:30] side.

[4:22:32] >> the intent is for them to

[4:22:36] come to a jd

[4:22:36] .

[4:22:38] >> Yesli Vega: have those

[4:22:39] circumstances changed.

[4:22:40] >>,where.

[4:22:42] >> Yesli Vega: does this mean

[4:22:43] these products are initiating

[4:22:45] the need for the road

[4:22:45] improvements.

[4:22:47] >> yes they are

[4:22:47] .

[4:22:48] >> Yesli Vega:

[4:22:48] if traffic

[4:22:50] volumes were unchanged from

[4:22:51] current levels with these

[4:22:53] improvements be necessary for

[4:22:54] public safety or traffic flow.

[4:22:56] >> for congestion purposes it

[4:22:58] would not be necessary.

[4:22:59] >> Yesli Vega: thank you does

[4:23:13] this now then mean that the

[4:23:15] current road is suitable for

[4:23:16] travel should nothing change.

[4:23:17] >> yes.

[4:23:19] >> Yesli Vega: I was also

[4:23:20] informed that there are no

[4:23:22] current safety concerns as the

[4:23:23] accident but have been

[4:23:25] occurring in this area are

[4:23:27] largely due to driver behavior

[4:23:28] rather than road conditions is

[4:23:29] this likert.

[4:23:31] >> that is a part of it there

[4:23:33] was a recent incident at owl's

[4:23:34] nest we believe it was related

[4:23:36] to behavior I have to confirm

[4:23:38] we did look into that x and.

[4:23:40] >> Yesli Vega: thank you MADAM

[4:23:41] Chair those are the questions I

[4:23:42] have for now.

[4:23:44] >> Chair Jefferson: before I go

[4:23:45] to supervisor and group when

[4:23:47] you talk about driver behavior

[4:23:48] he took my speeding.

[4:23:50] >> speeding if it's not related

[4:23:52] to the design of the roadway

[4:23:54] not yielding to traffic

[4:23:55] speeding typically under the

[4:23:55] influence.

[4:23:57] >> Chair Jefferson: I just want

[4:23:59] to go back to that blind spot

[4:24:01] that curve. Haven't there been

[4:24:02] a lot of fatalities or anything

[4:24:04] related to that curve if people

[4:24:06] are speeding not paying

[4:24:08] attention going fast or on that

[4:24:08] curve.

[4:24:10] >> in a recent review after

[4:24:11] confirm there's been some

[4:24:13] incident what we call off road

[4:24:14] losing control that is typical

[4:24:16] in a roadway like this we can

[4:24:18] come back with the exact

[4:24:19] incident.

[4:24:20] >> Chair Jefferson: I guess my

[4:24:22] question driver behavior is

[4:24:23] dependent on the road and

[4:24:24] design

[4:24:25] because vint hill is a

[4:24:27] place absent people go fast

[4:24:28] because they feel they can

[4:24:29] correct.

[4:24:29] >> correct.

[4:24:31] >> Chair Jefferson: I have no

[4:24:32] more questions.

[4:24:34] >> Victor Angry: not for you in

[4:24:37] the seven projects all of these

[4:24:38] developments come together I

[4:24:40] don't know if I heard this I

[4:24:42] know we are just talk about one

[4:24:44] now interpersonal connections

[4:24:45] are we going to connect these

[4:24:46] neighborhoods I will ask for

[4:24:48] your one of them I guess we

[4:24:49] have six more to go I would

[4:24:52] really hope so that is kind of

[4:24:53] the best way to get around.

[4:24:55] >> Applicant: there was a great

[4:24:59] deal of attention for these

[4:25:01] interpersonal connection police

[4:25:03] department whenever the

[4:25:03] opportunity was

[4:25:03] available and

[4:25:04] was provided.

[4:25:06] >> Chair Jefferson:

[4:25:08] >> Kenny Boddye: scott if you

[4:25:22] can come back up.

[4:25:23] Thank you for the presentation

[4:25:25] thank you to the applicant

[4:25:27] taken to the transportation

[4:25:29] staff a couple of quick

[4:25:30] questions for me scott in your

[4:25:32] presentation you always do a

[4:25:33] really good job of establishing

[4:25:35] the context of the land use

[4:25:37] around both proposed and

[4:25:38] current if you can bring that

[4:25:39] back up quickly.

[4:25:41] I think it is your first or

[4:25:42] second slide I think your

[4:25:44] second slide I appreciate that

[4:25:46] code I think this is a really

[4:25:48] good job of highlighting where

[4:25:50] this is lot of folks who have

[4:25:51] given concern has tried to make

[4:25:53] it seem like there's some

[4:25:55] far-flung place in the rural

[4:25:56] area where there is an existing

[4:25:58] rpc community but not

[4:26:05] predicable parcels to the east.

[4:26:06] From your expertise as a

[4:26:07] planner to me given how much

[4:26:09] open space is being proposed

[4:26:19] here would this be an

[4:26:21] appropriate transition point

[4:26:22] from the very heavy

[4:26:22] or

[4:26:24] preestablished community as we

[4:26:25] go further out?

[4:26:26] >> Scott Meyer: we feel yes

[4:26:28] given the context it does

[4:26:30] provide for that transition.

[4:26:32] >> Kenny Boddye: I appreciate

[4:26:33] that resent this is in the

[4:26:35] development area can you

[4:26:36] elaborate on that.

[4:26:38] >> Scott Meyer: correct we had

[4:26:39] air rural area the rural

[4:26:41] crescent we don't have that

[4:26:43] anymore there are areas where

[4:26:45] we are sensitive to density but

[4:26:47] being on the north side of vint

[4:26:48] hill road this is kind of like

[4:26:50] where srl was suburban

[4:26:52] residential lower density

[4:27:05] nothing is changed with where

[4:27:06] where the lower density

[4:27:08] suburban development could have

[4:27:10] been anticipated for english.

[4:27:12] >> Kenny Boddye: I appreciate

[4:27:14] that I think that's an

[4:27:15] important context to me is

[4:27:17] looking at the score door it

[4:27:18] felt like to seven section was

[4:27:20] where we really want to be a

[4:27:22] lot more sensitive to the

[4:27:23] densities that was the actual

[4:27:25] boundary line the rural

[4:27:26] crescent was down there that is

[4:27:28] why all that when we redid the

[4:27:30] comp plan was designated c rise

[4:27:32] versus suburban style density

[4:27:33] is that?

[4:27:34] >> Scott Meyer: left everything

[4:27:37] on the north side is more about

[4:27:37] suburban low-density.

[4:27:39] >> Kenny Boddye: that is all

[4:27:42] for you scott I think that was

[4:27:43] an important place making paolo

[4:27:44] back to you for second.

[4:27:46] To go back to transportation

[4:27:48] and the roadway considerations

[4:27:49] here I noticed some of this is

[4:27:51] sort of just a product of how

[4:27:53] this is being planned out how

[4:27:55] there is going to be six other

[4:28:04] applications brought the way

[4:28:05] let's talk about the traffic

[4:28:07] safety piece about this little

[4:28:09] bit where we have planned

[4:28:11] roundabout signalized

[4:28:12] intersection that were not

[4:28:12] there

[4:28:14] before more collectively

[4:28:16] around pedestrian and things

[4:28:18] like that can you talk about

[4:28:19] the glendora vision for that

[4:28:20] piece.

[4:28:21] >> when it comes to the vint

[4:28:23] hill corridor plan work with

[4:28:24] the applicant for the

[4:28:26] compliment someone arterial

[4:28:28] roadway it's intended to carry

[4:28:30] over 15,000 vehicles per day

[4:28:31] one of the things we work with

[4:28:33] the applicant on is modifying

[4:28:35] the typical sections included

[4:28:37] lower the design speed from a

[4:28:39] safety point of view that helps

[4:28:40] with the character of the

[4:28:42] roadway weekly chore as far as

[4:28:44] the development of self we have

[4:28:45] turn lanes you have your

[4:28:47] crashes mostly at intersection

[4:28:48] that is we have the most

[4:28:50] conflict points to make sure

[4:28:51] all entrances had adequate

[4:28:53] families to meet the standards

[4:28:55] that we have the two

[4:28:56] roundabouts that are proposed

[4:28:58] within the corridor plan one

[4:28:59] and three line pioneer as part

[4:29:01] of strathmore and at the other

[4:29:03] as part of al's nest with

[4:29:04] transition from four lanes to

[4:29:06] two lanes focus at the major

[4:29:07] intersections mullins forge

[4:29:09] road and vint hill to see a lot

[4:29:12] of congestion therefrom safety

[4:29:13] point of view we want to

[4:29:15] separate traffic so you have

[4:29:16] dedicated left and right turn

[4:29:18] lanes in addition to three

[4:29:19] lanes same thing when it comes

[4:29:21] to suddenly manner and vint

[4:29:23] hill you have adequate turn

[4:29:24] lanes and facilities there. The

[4:29:26] plan itself as CHAIRMAN Mission

[4:29:28] has a shared use path on both

[4:29:30] sides will will project will do

[4:29:32] one trail and once on the

[4:29:33] sidewalk on the other it is

[4:29:35] what makes this corridor plan a

[4:29:37] little unique address some of

[4:29:39] the safety and connectivity

[4:29:39] concerns.

[4:29:41] >> Kenny Boddye: left point

[4:29:42] MADAM Chair thank you for

[4:29:44] lending on that shared use path

[4:29:46] is the current condition of

[4:29:49] pedestrian connectivity on this

[4:29:50] part of vint hill road.

[4:29:51] >> there is none or minimal we

[4:29:53] have it any paved shoulders

[4:29:53] it's

[4:29:55] a ditch sections there isto

[4:29:55] walk.

[4:29:57] >> Kenny Boddye: or we would be

[4:30:00] going from dishes to shared use

[4:30:00] path's on both sides.

[4:30:02] >> Kenny Boddye: appreciate

[4:30:04] that thank you MADAM Chair

[4:30:04] throughout.

[4:30:06] >> Yesli Vega: paolo you are

[4:30:07] the men of the night.

[4:30:09] Sort of crew the tia shows the

[4:30:10] daily trips on this project

[4:30:12] will drive up a 2% increase

[4:30:13] right.

[4:30:14] >> that is a projection use

[4:30:16] when we do traffic analysis

[4:30:17] that's

[4:30:18] typical growth when you

[4:30:19] look at traffic study 's.

[4:30:22] >> Yesli Vega: according to the

[4:30:24] tia on this product any need

[4:30:25] for major road improvements.

[4:30:27] > yes frontage improvements

[4:30:31] typically

[4:30:32] .

[4:30:34] >> Yesli Vega: what type of

[4:30:34] improvements.

[4:30:37] >> frontage improvements mainly

[4:30:38] turn lanes accessed on its own

[4:30:40] when we look at development

[4:30:41] individually all it required

[4:30:42] was frontage

[4:30:44] improvements left

[4:30:45] and right turn lanes.

[4:30:47] >> Yesli Vega: can have scott,

[4:30:48] please thank you paolo.

[4:30:50] >> Yesli Vega: scott you

[4:30:53] mentioned staff had not had

[4:30:55] enough time to properly get the

[4:30:56] school analysis can you

[4:30:58] elaborate a little bit on that.

[4:30:59] > Scott Meyer: a couple of

[4:31:07] things. I'm glad you are asking

[4:31:09] we received our development mac

[4:31:11] statement from the schools

[4:31:13] that's attached misstep report

[4:31:15] the applicant at the same time

[4:31:18] has gone a collaborative vint

[4:31:19] hill corridor study on their

[4:31:21] assessment of schools that was

[4:31:22] sent to the schools the county

[4:31:26] schools we are reflecting that

[4:31:28] in the report but we are basing

[4:31:30] our analysis on what the

[4:31:32] schools are given us. We have

[4:31:35] not done we don't have the

[4:31:36] expertise to do an extra level

[4:31:39] of analysis.

[4:31:40] It is acknowledged and

[4:31:41] understood that the trends MAY

[4:31:43] be changing but we don't have

[4:31:46] the metrics behind what if the

[4:31:49] applicant is done.

[4:31:50] Sherman can

[4:31:51] probably answer that

[4:31:53] a lot better than I would be

[4:31:53] able to.

[4:31:55] >> Yesli Vega: I was just

[4:31:57] curious since you said you had

[4:31:59] outfitted the school analysis

[4:32:02] okay I brought this up earlier

[4:32:04] today in a different project it

[4:32:06] seems to be a reoccurring trend

[4:32:14] here one that we need to figure

[4:32:15] out and figure out rather

[4:32:16] quickly it also has to do with

[4:32:18] the required four minute travel

[4:32:20] time for basic life support

[4:32:22] this falls outside of that

[4:32:24] radius what are the plans maybe

[4:32:24] it MAY

[4:32:25] be supervisor gordy the

[4:32:27] presentation to mention the one

[4:32:28] that will service this entire

[4:32:29] area.

[4:32:30] [Unclear audio] Are you aware

[4:32:32] can you share any of that scott

[4:32:34] are you in a position to do so.

[4:32:36] >> Scott Meyer: I don't have

[4:32:37] specifics on that supervisor

[4:32:39] gordy if there is anything you

[4:32:40] want to say.

[4:32:43] >> Yesli Vega: I do have more

[4:32:44] things speed there is a

[4:32:46] proposed fire station site that

[4:32:49] would be offered as another one

[4:32:50] of the departments at sellers

[4:32:53] road now was last note the fire

[4:32:55] departments already working

[4:32:56] with the developer on and

[4:32:57] compositions about

[4:32:58] that site.

[4:33:03] >> Yesli Vega: is the county

[4:33:06] arborist here.

[4:33:07] I have a couple of questions

[4:33:14] for you sir.

[4:33:19] We heard a little bit about the

[4:33:20] white oak tree and at the

[4:33:21] clearing and all of that can

[4:33:23] talk a little bit about the

[4:33:24] concerns I did read a little

[4:33:27] bit about it misstep report but

[4:33:28] for the public awareness I like

[4:33:29] to hear it from you.

[4:33:35] >> our requirements talks about

[4:33:37] tree preservation is basically

[4:33:38] what it states is every inch

[4:33:41] diameter should be out 1 foot

[4:33:46] radius that would be with the

[4:33:48] 54 inch tree it should go out a

[4:33:49] minimum of 54 feet to no

[4:33:55] disturbance no compaction no

[4:33:57] impact to the tree roots none

[4:33:59] whatsoever. The concern that we

[4:34:01] have is the adjacent

[4:34:05] development is not doing a

[4:34:07] mirror image. My industry

[4:34:08] actually calls for more

[4:34:13] protection as 1.5 feet but rdc

[4:34:15] only requires 1 foot radius per

[4:34:16] inch. They are

[4:34:17] offering to do a

[4:34:18] chemical treatment with.

[4:34:20] [Listing names] Which is a

[4:34:21] growth regulator growth

[4:34:24] regulator physically slows the

[4:34:26] tree down so it can handle

[4:34:27] certain impacts specifically

[4:34:32] with the root compaction and

[4:34:33] root damage of some kind.

[4:34:35] >> Yesli Vega: okay. Thank you

[4:34:37] for that explanation scott

[4:34:39] think it is going to be you I'm

[4:34:40] sorry sir I did not catch her

[4:34:46] name.

[4:34:52] Scott can you show me I don't

[4:34:54] know if you have it in the

[4:34:55] presentation I know there are

[4:34:57] some concerns about impacted

[4:34:58] wetlands in different parts

[4:34:59] can

[4:35:00] you talk to me a little bit

[4:35:01] about that.

[4:35:04] >> Scott Meyer: this I guess it

[4:35:08] is probably unclear there is a

[4:35:11] it is up in this area here.

[4:35:14] I should probably go to the

[4:35:23] excuse me.

[4:35:25] Where this road is right here

[4:35:29] it is crossing.

[4:35:31] This area as well. We always

[4:35:33] tried to look for a connected

[4:35:39] contiguous network of areas but

[4:35:41] we have that mostly. Again when

[4:35:43] this came in didn't have the

[4:35:48] scope one of the issues was

[4:35:49] where is this road going to

[4:35:51] when you see how it fits into

[4:35:54] the surrounding development it

[4:35:56] does link to adjacent

[4:35:58] development this is been around

[4:36:00] for a while we didn't have the

[4:36:01] benefit of the aerial of the

[4:36:03] context of how everything

[4:36:06] blinks together.

[4:36:08] We feel the applicant could

[4:36:09] have changed the layout with

[4:36:11] this because this might be more

[4:36:12] of a question for will.

[4:36:13] We talked about the

[4:36:17] prioritization of the resources

[4:36:19] I would rather have will

[4:36:19] clarify that.

[4:36:23] >> of course with wetlands

[4:36:24] there is a process to disturb

[4:36:31] wetlands it is not through the

[4:36:32] counties it is through the

[4:36:34] state and federal permitting.

[4:36:36] When we see wetlands they serve

[4:36:38] a purpose in the natural

[4:36:39] environment would try to

[4:36:41] minimize or reduce any kind of

[4:36:47] impact whatsoever.

[4:36:48] When we see a wetland is going

[4:36:49] to

[4:36:50] be disturbed with roads or

[4:36:52] with some kind of development

[4:36:54] we always discouraged that in

[4:36:56] some fashion and try to have a

[4:36:57] different layout proposed for.

[4:36:59] >> Yesli Vega: was done here.

[4:37:01] >> they adjusted it thought

[4:37:02] maybe they could do more but

[4:37:04] they did adjust the did listen

[4:37:05] to our comments.

[4:37:05] >> Yesli

[4:37:07] Vega: okay thank you.

[4:37:09] That's all have MADAM Chair

[4:37:10] school at all).

[4:37:12] >> Andrea Bailey,Vice Chair:

[4:37:13] paolo please I just have a

[4:37:15] quick question about the

[4:37:17] roundabout.

[4:37:19] And going back to something

[4:37:20] supervisor stewart was asking

[4:37:23] for it on the roundabouts I

[4:37:23] know it is his traffic is it

[4:37:25] also there is a couple in my

[4:37:25] district.

[4:37:32] In this instance are we on a

[4:37:33] trend of using roundabouts to

[4:37:35] ease not only is the traffic

[4:37:38] but also there's been

[4:37:40] fatalities that prevent that a

[4:37:41] little bit more as well.

[4:37:43] >> Scott Meyer: does

[4:37:45] roundabouts typically causes

[4:37:49] you to slow down there is a

[4:37:51] small pinch point it forces you

[4:37:53] to slow down as you approach

[4:37:55] the intersection there is a

[4:37:59] trend with roundabouts dude

[4:38:01] need right away in a situation

[4:38:02] where it is part of a

[4:38:04] development it does make it

[4:38:05] easier to implement a

[4:38:07] roundabout as implement is

[4:38:09] being provided as part of the

[4:38:10] improvement.

[4:38:12] >> Andrea Bailey,Vice Chair: is

[4:38:13] more cost-effective.

[4:38:15] >> long-term has signal prices

[4:38:17] are going up as well it is a

[4:38:18] knowledge of how much right

[4:38:20] away and how much room is

[4:38:22] available to complete the

[4:38:23] improvement.

[4:38:24] >> Andrea Bailey,Vice Chair:

[4:38:26] last question as we progress

[4:38:28] with the other projects should

[4:38:29] we expect more.

[4:38:31] >> at this time only to his

[4:38:32] being proposed the tool

[4:38:33] roundabout is part of the

[4:38:35] entire: the jda would implement

[4:38:37] the roundabout as part of the

[4:38:39] one thing but the way the

[4:38:40] properties are set up it is

[4:38:42] possible others can occur.

[4:38:43] The possibility in the proper

[4:38:44] burden.

[4:38:45] > George Stewart:

[4:38:51] this is for scott.

[4:38:52] When your mention of this in my

[4:38:57] area plan from last night you

[4:38:59] said that certain impacts are

[4:39:00] not known yet and combining

[4:39:03] that with your lack of

[4:39:06] information about the impact

[4:39:15] from schools how can you check

[4:39:16] this out to say this is

[4:39:18] something that should be going

[4:39:18] forward?

[4:39:20] >> Scott Meyer: our director

[4:39:21] tonya washington can address

[4:39:24] that.

[4:39:25] >> good evening tonya

[4:39:27] washington rector of the

[4:39:30] planning office supervisor

[4:39:32] stewart when the board

[4:39:37] initiated the vint hill court

[4:39:38] or small area plan included

[4:39:40] note to the board of these

[4:39:42] applications had already been

[4:39:44] submitted and already under

[4:39:46] county review that he will

[4:39:47] likely be most certainly be

[4:39:48] coming to the board fraction

[4:39:50] prior to the small area plan

[4:39:54] being completed small area plan

[4:39:56] will be focusing on a larger

[4:39:57] area not just the area covered

[4:40:01] by these applications given

[4:40:03] that it will take about two

[4:40:06] years to complete the small

[4:40:07] area plan we could not hold out

[4:40:09] these rezoning applications

[4:40:11] which are on it when your clock

[4:40:12] before we could complete the

[4:40:15] small area plan the focus is to

[4:40:22] continue to staff review

[4:40:23] working with supervisor gordy

[4:40:25] on these applications to

[4:40:34] ultimately get a product

[4:40:35] depending upon what happens

[4:40:37] with the other applications the

[4:40:38] board can make a decision on

[4:40:40] with the garlic to the small

[4:40:42] area plan itself whatever

[4:40:43] decisions the board ultimately

[4:40:45] makes almost applications will

[4:40:47] get folded into the larger

[4:40:48] analysis for this area. For the

[4:40:50] small area plan these

[4:40:51] applications again were

[4:40:53] submitted quite some time

[4:40:55] before the small area plan was

[4:40:56] initiated because they are

[4:40:58] rezoning applications and for

[4:41:00] the state code there is a time

[4:41:01] clock on them we needed to

[4:41:03] continue to move forward this

[4:41:12] is somewhat unique situation.

[4:41:13] Just to the extent we have a

[4:41:15] small area plan started later

[4:41:17] we did have to move forward

[4:41:18] with the review of these

[4:41:19] applications for.

[4:41:21] >> George Stewart: I am kind of

[4:41:21] new.

[4:41:23] How much time is left on the

[4:41:24] clock.

[4:41:25] >> Tanya Washington: or

[4:41:26] strathmore what is the

[4:41:26] timeframe?

[4:41:28] For strathmore when your clock

[4:41:42] has already passed.

[4:41:43] [Unclear audio] It was

[4:41:44] submitted APRIL 2023.

[4:41:46] >> George Stewart: got you

[4:41:47] taking more time for smart

[4:41:48] community

[4:41:49] input will still have

[4:41:50] is the past.

[4:41:52] >> Tanya Washington: I will say

[4:41:55] for this rezoning application

[4:41:56] as well as further land-use

[4:41:58] applications going through the

[4:41:59] entitlement process the

[4:42:01] planning office has guidelines

[4:42:06] that strongly encourage

[4:42:08] applicants to do community

[4:42:09] engagement prior to coming to

[4:42:11] public hearings prior to the

[4:42:13] planning commission public

[4:42:15] hearings. This project did go

[4:42:16] through community engagement

[4:42:18] I'm sure MR. Patrick can speak

[4:42:26] to that we do encourage that so

[4:42:27] the community has an

[4:42:29] opportunity for the product is

[4:42:30] still going through the county

[4:42:30] review

[4:42:32] to be able to provide

[4:42:34] their feedback and applicant

[4:42:36] have the opportunity to make

[4:42:38] adjustments to those

[4:42:39] applications prior to starting

[4:42:40] the formal public review

[4:42:41] process.

[4:42:42] >> George Stewart: thank you.

[4:42:44] >> Chair Jefferson: before I

[4:42:46] want to supervisor gordy I want

[4:42:52] to invite the applicant to come

[4:42:54] back up if you can answer

[4:42:56] questions about your community

[4:42:58] engagement will be up for the

[4:43:00] committee has multiple points

[4:43:02] obviously the applicants do

[4:43:03] their community town halls

[4:43:05] clearly plan commission meeting

[4:43:07] for approval given but if you

[4:43:08] can give us a bit more

[4:43:09] information about that.

[4:43:11] Turn on the microphone.

[4:43:13] >> Applicant: thank you for

[4:43:14] asking the question. We had

[4:43:16] three community engagement

[4:43:17] efforts on this property we did

[4:43:19] one that was all mine which was

[4:43:21] reasonably well attended we

[4:43:22] also had two other open house

[4:43:25] type community engagement

[4:43:27] sessions we notified within 1

[4:43:28] mile of this property we had

[4:43:30] sent out 4000 notices two

[4:43:31] different property owners.

[4:43:33] There was a great deal of very

[4:43:35] expensive notice to the

[4:43:37] community and opportunities to

[4:43:39] participate this is in addition

[4:43:40] to the notices because he sends

[4:43:42] out when an application is

[4:43:44] first filed then for the

[4:43:45] planning commission public

[4:43:47] hearings and also for the

[4:43:50] meeting this evening.

[4:43:51] >> Chair Jefferson: just a note

[4:43:53] after we go through the

[4:43:54] questions for the applicant and

[4:43:56] for the county staff will open

[4:43:59] the public hearings that is

[4:44:01] another time to hear from

[4:44:02] people. That's all I have I

[4:44:04] will go to supervisor gordy

[4:44:06] speak I will note onto that

[4:44:12] this application we tapped the

[4:44:13] brakes on it many times much to

[4:44:15] the angst I would say of the

[4:44:20] applicant because I want to get

[4:44:22] a holistic plan done they were

[4:44:26] patient and actually

[4:44:27] contributed I would say

[4:44:28] .

[4:44:34] [Listing names] Did tremendous

[4:44:36] amount of work in studying and

[4:44:38] analyzing what was going on

[4:44:40] with the schools we have three

[4:44:45] elementary schools that are

[4:44:47] closer to this development than

[4:44:49] the one that they are zoned to.

[4:44:50] All under capacity.

[4:44:50] N one of

[4:44:52] the schools had to cancel

[4:44:53] programs because of the lack of

[4:45:04] enrollment.

[4:45:06] Within their schools t claims

[4:45:08] would cost their drama program

[4:45:09] which they were noted for

[4:45:11] because they don't have enough

[4:45:12] students to fund the programs

[4:45:14] we already seen the community

[4:45:16] in this area aging our schools

[4:45:17] are losing enrollment.

[4:45:19] We are seeing yet we know that

[4:45:21] there is capacity as the school

[4:45:23] system has continued I've had

[4:45:24] from day one I've had meetings

[4:45:29] with superintendent Mcdade with

[4:45:30] cheryl latif with my own school

[4:45:32] board member and other school

[4:45:34] board members to talk about how

[4:45:35] the way we analyze schools

[4:45:37] during a planning process in my

[4:45:39] view has been broken.

[4:45:41] When we take these developments

[4:45:57] in isolation you can have one

[4:45:59] development that you take it

[4:46:01] one time they will save this

[4:46:03] development will put the

[4:46:05] schools over capacity then of

[4:46:06] four months later we can have

[4:46:08] another development impacting

[4:46:10] the same exact schools and they

[4:46:11] can say there is no impact.

[4:46:13] Because we don't take a

[4:46:14] holistic look at what's

[4:46:16] happening in the environment

[4:46:17] they've agreed to take that

[4:46:19] holistic look and say it is not

[4:46:21] just about what my development

[4:46:23] is doing but it is about what

[4:46:25] my department is doing along

[4:46:27] with everything else they don't

[4:46:28] have to do this.

[4:46:30] They did not have to do this at

[4:46:32] all. They willingly did it at

[4:46:33] my request so we could take a

[4:46:35] better approach to development

[4:46:37] and understanding and

[4:46:39] mitigating the impact of these

[4:46:41] developments potentially would

[4:46:43] have on our community. Then on

[4:46:44] transportation as well.

[4:46:46] I've asked them to maintain

[4:46:47] moral character.

[4:46:48] Give us a design along vint

[4:46:50] hill that is seamless it is

[4:46:52] every development of the same

[4:46:53] design putting the traffic

[4:46:55] circles it maintains several

[4:46:57] character does not bring up the

[4:46:58] flashing lights he doesn't have

[4:47:01] all those things it helps us to

[4:47:02] maintain the rural character

[4:47:04] along different recorder pro as

[4:47:06] we've gone through this process

[4:47:08] to understanding the impact on

[4:47:10] the schools and the impact on

[4:47:12] the world was and how this will

[4:47:14] work together who tried to look

[4:47:15] at this from a bigger picture

[4:47:17] more contextual approach rather

[4:47:19] than just taking each and every

[4:47:21] case in isolation because as I

[4:47:23] said earlier the whole is

[4:47:24] greater than the sum of the

[4:47:25] parts.

[4:47:26] That is something to see happen

[4:47:28] over and over again throughout

[4:47:31] the county but never changed

[4:47:32] our practices to get better at

[4:47:34] it. To better mitigate against

[4:47:36] separate I appreciate all the

[4:47:37] questions my colleagues scared

[4:47:39] I will save the one accident

[4:47:41] they could tell you that we had

[4:47:52] at owl nest that was caused

[4:47:54] because the view was blocked by

[4:47:56] construction equipment

[4:47:58] replacement waterlines for the

[4:47:59] city of manassas. They had at

[4:48:01] the corner blocked and the

[4:48:03] driver literally cannot see the

[4:48:05] truck that was coming up vint

[4:48:07] hill road the vehicles the

[4:48:09] construction vehicles blinded

[4:48:10] the intersection that is what

[4:48:11] caused that.

[4:48:13] Other than that what this will

[4:48:15] do right now the speed limit

[4:48:16] elders 50 mph I can tell you

[4:48:17] nine times out of 10 I'm going

[4:48:19] 45 or slower. Because people

[4:48:21] are just driving slower out

[4:48:21] there.

[4:48:23] Nonetheless we are looking at

[4:48:25] trying to make this a world a

[4:48:26] safer and addressing the

[4:48:33] impacts of the potential

[4:48:34] developments in the area.

[4:48:36] That's all I have for now MADAM

[4:48:37] Chair school and don't have

[4:48:39] anyone else in the queue what

[4:48:41] I'm going to do thank you so

[4:51:01] 11.

[4:51:05] [Listing names] My son attends

[4:51:07] t claim would it is great

[4:51:09] congratulations stuart as I

[4:51:10] read some of your stuff today

[4:51:12] to prepare myself MR. Gordy

[4:51:14] would be my district as follows

[4:51:16] being in brentsville. I've been

[4:51:18] a resident almost 5 years I've

[4:51:22] done a lot of planning

[4:51:24] commission meetings but not in

[4:51:26] the state my ex-husband is a

[4:51:27] former military very familiar

[4:51:29] with a lot of the things that

[4:51:33] happen in indiana. You guys

[4:51:35] don't mind I will read off the

[4:51:37] notes I've been planning I only

[4:51:38] get three minutes the weight

[4:51:40] kind of put some things out

[4:51:41] there if that's okay.

[4:51:43] First of all it is really good

[4:51:44] to know there are seven

[4:51:46] different things because I

[4:51:48] don't think I realized that in

[4:51:49] my head. For the utilities how

[4:51:51] will this endowment add to the

[4:51:54] newly overloaded grid in

[4:51:57] conjunction with all the data

[4:51:59] centers that are coming along?

[4:51:59] Secondly the

[4:52:01] schools I already

[4:52:03] own this question it was what

[4:52:04] elementary school to his feet

[4:52:07] into t claim would I sort.

[4:52:08] [Listing names] Would go into t

[4:52:09] claim would when gentleman said

[4:52:12] we are under capacity in our

[4:52:13] schools I didn't know that I

[4:52:14] have 1/5 grader and letter to

[4:52:16] clay would we did lose the

[4:52:17] drama program I did not know it

[4:52:19] was because it was under there

[4:52:31] was under enrollment second

[4:52:33] thing if the timeline can't do

[4:52:35] notes on your timeline for the

[4:52:36] rezoning in a planning

[4:52:38] commission when I change that

[4:52:39] ordinance as you noted it was

[4:52:41] two years already in the making

[4:52:43] but couldn't go ahead and

[4:52:45] accommodate these different

[4:52:49] things I felt there was counter

[4:52:51] intuitive the roads. Vint hill

[4:52:53] road before you get there

[4:52:54] mullins ford it's a nightmare

[4:52:56] it's very sharp curves it is

[4:52:58] tulane's MR. Gordy who said he

[4:53:00] go under 50 in that area I can

[4:53:02] promise you at night people are

[4:53:04] going over 60 miles an hour in

[4:53:06] that area because it is so dark

[4:53:08] there's no streetlights I also

[4:53:09] was thinking with her ever be

[4:53:11] any eminent domain to connect

[4:53:13] to either glenn kirk or rollins

[4:53:15] sport a different way because

[4:53:17] of fraud run over which my

[4:53:18] house except to plug and

[4:53:20] pervert on solitary efforts the

[4:53:22] connection if you look at play

[4:53:24] more it's an award-winning

[4:53:25] subdivision I've only been

[4:53:27] there for years you can connect

[4:53:29] at several different places you

[4:53:30] can connect at vint hill you

[4:53:32] can connect the linden hall

[4:53:34] those connections make other

[4:53:36] connections to glenn kirk to

[4:53:37] rollins sport that gives a lot

[4:53:39] of other ways to go around

[4:53:41] anyways just thinking of that.

[4:53:43] I was wondering about eminent

[4:53:45] domain you have to think about.

[4:53:46] [Listing names] How many homes

[4:53:48] are expected microphone and

[4:53:53] said that teaching staff the

[4:53:54] shortage equals more teachers

[4:53:57] how do you plan to accommodate

[4:53:58] staffing for those teachers

[4:54:00] that might be why the

[4:54:01] elementary schools are under

[4:54:03] filled is because there MAY not

[4:54:04] be seven effort for that which

[4:54:04] I

[4:54:07] did see some rezoning which I

[4:54:08] thought was good at last one

[4:54:10] was utility what is the current

[4:54:11] load capacity.

[4:54:13] >> Chair Jefferson: I'm sorry I

[4:54:15] know you have a lot but frankly

[4:54:16] next speaker please.

[4:54:21] >> I'm angela klein I'm from

[4:54:22] brentsville as well as seen

[4:54:24] most of the congratulations

[4:54:25] supervisor stuart on being part

[4:54:35] of the board I'm here asking to

[4:54:36] deny order for this draft

[4:54:38] rezoning application

[4:54:39] development in the rural areas

[4:54:42] will require substantially more

[4:54:44] for structure improvements

[4:54:45] including but not limited to

[4:54:47] the transportation as was

[4:54:49] alluded to on vint hill road

[4:54:50] another connecting roads and

[4:54:52] the proffers offered them I

[4:54:54] reviewed the applicant or

[4:54:56] inadequate to confidential sure

[4:54:57] needs understand a lot of

[4:54:58] planning has gone to this I

[4:55:00] just don't think it equates to

[4:55:04] what we see on a daily basis.

[4:55:06] Their meeting last night the

[4:55:08] others refer to the peremptory

[4:55:09] small area plan was clearly

[4:55:11] attended I think the committee

[4:55:13] should out for that it was well

[4:55:15] received I think it offers the

[4:55:17] county of the applicant to plan

[4:55:18] thoughtfully and intentionally

[4:55:20] by taking a holistic approach

[4:55:22] to the entire nvrc corridor

[4:55:23] when we think of q of the

[4:55:25] infrastructure then needs and

[4:55:27] the fragile watersheds and

[4:55:28] natural resources for

[4:55:30] conservation by approving

[4:55:32] strathmore application

[4:55:34] residents will save the county

[4:55:36] and the supervisor approving a

[4:55:38] developer-based vision for the

[4:55:40] vint hill corridor and wonder

[4:55:42] why we had been had a kickoff

[4:55:44] meeting for the vint hill

[4:55:45] quarter meeting this area and

[4:55:47] what the applicants are

[4:55:49] strathmore applicant than

[4:55:51] others along the vint hill

[4:55:52] quarter are asking for rezoning

[4:55:54] is a big part of the event till

[4:55:56] vint hill corridor small area

[4:55:57] plan I don't see how that can

[4:56:05] be part of the equation as well

[4:56:06] vint hill thought most about

[4:56:08] the roads vint hill is

[4:56:10] currently a two-lane road we

[4:56:12] see a lot of speeders just as

[4:56:13] the neighbor alluded to in

[4:56:15] there I live on salish drive

[4:56:19] across from owls nest we

[4:56:20] mentioned that road was going

[4:56:22] to get relined in roundabout

[4:56:24] would be put there we got the

[4:56:26] police on a nightly basis

[4:56:27] because people like to use vint

[4:56:29] hill as a drag race we are in

[4:56:31] favor of the roundabout but

[4:56:32] traffic is expected to increase

[4:56:34] to approximately 22,000 trips

[4:56:36] along vint hill road which

[4:56:38] currently sees about 11,000

[4:56:40] daily trips I'm using just the

[4:56:42] applicant's estimate of 9.583

[4:56:43] daily trips. It's important for

[4:56:45] you to understand as residents

[4:56:47] of that road it takes about

[4:56:48] 15-20 minutes every morning for

[4:56:50] us to get onto vint hill road

[4:56:51] because of the traffic and

[4:56:53] another 20-30 minutes for us to

[4:56:57] go from rollins poured onto

[4:56:58] linton hall if you want to go

[4:57:00] to 66 just in the waiting times

[4:57:02] given the current density. I'd

[4:57:04] really like to see a lot more

[4:57:06] attention to vint hill road

[4:57:07] understanding right now going

[4:57:09] from four lanes counted

[4:57:10] tulane's willie is called a

[4:57:12] bottleneck that area given who

[4:57:18] is already out there and what

[4:57:20] we are going to eventually see

[4:57:22] growth no matter if it is this

[4:57:23] application or others thank

[4:57:24] you.

[4:57:25] >> Chair Jefferson: thank you

[4:57:26] next speaker please.

[4:57:31] >> good evening everyone my

[4:57:32] name is.

[4:57:35] [Listing names] And from that

[4:57:36] ketchup and part of the

[4:57:38] gainesville district mutual

[4:57:40] encouragement newly elected

[4:57:42] supervisor possibly overwhelmed

[4:57:43] supervisor to vote in favor of

[4:57:45] the strathmore project and

[4:57:51] supervisor gordy district 1st

[4:57:53] formal supervisor gordy

[4:57:55] supports this project as the

[4:57:57] elected representative for

[4:57:59] their principal district no one

[4:58:00] knows the interest and the

[4:58:02] needs of the district better

[4:58:07] than supervisor gordy for the

[4:58:09] more black petition many of the

[4:58:11] democrats and the board will be

[4:58:13] crossing the political islands

[4:58:15] according supervisor gordy's

[4:58:16] efforts to improve his district

[4:58:18] with this development project

[4:58:20] this is a classic opportunity

[4:58:22] for the board to provide good

[4:58:25] bipartisan government about the

[4:58:38] beach and a packet think the

[4:58:40] proper is also eligible to sell

[4:58:43] the staff support additionally

[4:58:44] it's important not to overlook

[4:58:46] the interest of the current

[4:58:48] landowners many in our county

[4:58:50] uncertain as to help they would

[4:58:52] support their children's higher

[4:58:54] education or have a secure

[4:58:55] retirement when the top suites

[4:58:57] constituents can achieve those

[4:58:58] goals by exercising the private

[4:59:00] property rights to sell the

[4:59:02] properties to developers clinic

[4:59:03] supervisors for to get the

[4:59:05] project devoted not those

[4:59:06] constituents that private

[4:59:08] property rights in the night

[4:59:10] his constituents the ability to

[4:59:12] accomplish is very personal and

[4:59:14] important life goals.

[4:59:15] Sometimes opposing the project

[4:59:17] is the right thing to do and be

[4:59:20] very skeptical of permitting a

[4:59:22] plastics factory which are

[4:59:24] industries known to chemicals

[4:59:25] to waterways but this product

[4:59:27] like the majority does not pose

[4:59:29] significant harm to our

[4:59:31] community although there will

[4:59:32] be people with small change in

[4:59:34] MISS How things once were along

[4:59:36] for the past cannot come at the

[4:59:38] expense of our future we also

[4:59:39] need to understand that

[4:59:41] perfection is something that is

[4:59:43] worth pursuing but is not a

[4:59:45] standard that we hold because

[4:59:46] if we do we won't be voting on

[4:59:48] any project ever because

[4:59:49] nothing is ever going to be

[4:59:51] perfect when it comes to us.

[4:59:53] Supervisor stuart is a

[4:59:54] constituent navigated vote if

[4:59:56] you you have my support in

[4:59:58] voting in favor of this project

[4:59:59] thank you all for your time and

[5:00:01] service to our community for

[5:00:03] elected officials and the staff

[5:00:05] we all deal with a lot of

[5:00:06] difficult people and certainly

[5:00:08] appreciated thank you all so

[5:00:08] much.

[5:00:10] >> Chair Jefferson: thank you

[5:00:12] and ms Mcvary ready to speak.

[5:00:13] >> I was here in APRIL of the

[5:00:15] planning commission for the

[5:00:17] first planning commission

[5:00:18] hearing for I came back for

[5:00:20] negative referral they brought

[5:00:22] nothing new to the table the

[5:00:23] applicant I recommend denial

[5:00:25] because they brought nothing

[5:00:27] forth after 90 days to increase

[5:00:29] transportation other than a

[5:00:31] traffic circle at the point of

[5:00:33] pioneer drive they have not

[5:00:34] whether it is 15,000 per unit

[5:00:36] the road has been putting first

[5:00:38] they made no contribution to

[5:00:40] read and think of the road

[5:00:41] filled of elements.

[5:00:43] MR. Patrick, once again talking

[5:00:45] to apollo in transportation the

[5:00:47] road needs to be put in before

[5:00:48] the infrastructure I saw this

[5:00:50] happen 45 years ago and brooke

[5:00:52] senator hazel did not build the

[5:00:53] parkway it cost me $2 million

[5:00:55] of taxpayer money 20 years

[5:00:57] later to do it the road vint

[5:00:58] hill cannot go from four lanes

[5:01:00] to two lanes and schaefer

[5:01:01] factor four lanes from cattle

[5:01:03] run to simply drive two lanes

[5:01:10] down it was supposed to be from

[5:01:10] .

[5:01:11] [Listing names] [Unclear audio]

[5:01:13] as you go from four lanes from

[5:01:15] reed street [Listing names]

[5:01:17] [Unclear audio] As you go from

[5:01:19] four lanes from reed st., tampa

[5:01:21] mile it goes back to two lanes

[5:01:22] then it becomes four lanes from

[5:01:24] the side of tranmere at the

[5:01:25] traffic circle all the way down

[5:01:32] to silas which is only almost

[5:01:34] 9/10 of a mile. Then stanley

[5:01:42] once said michael joe biden

[5:01:44] vint hill from owls nest down

[5:01:46] to rollins we will widen the

[5:01:48] curve. The canticle 4 lanes

[5:01:51] counted tulane's counterpoints

[5:01:52] counted tulane and have nothing

[5:01:59] but bottleneck grid brookville

[5:02:01] 775 is not enough to put 15,000

[5:02:03] cars a day on a

[5:02:04] two-lane/four-lane road and

[5:02:06] congested with traffic circles

[5:02:08] so there's no floor traffic

[5:02:10] movement there is no flow of

[5:02:11] traffic it will become pure

[5:02:12] gridlock and go to hell her on

[5:02:14] owls nest has had one fidelity

[5:04:28] >> I'm in the board of the

[5:04:32] >> Andrea Bailey,Vice Chair:

[5:04:34] please continue with your five

[5:04:36] minutes I didn't hear you.

[5:04:38] >> I would like to ask you guys

[5:04:39] to defer or deny this project I

[5:04:41] was looking through the proper

[5:04:45] statement for page 21 of 26 of

[5:05:08] the strathmore proposal on

[5:05:10] section I it says in the domain

[5:05:11] in the event of the applicant

[5:05:13] is not able to acquire

[5:05:15] right-of-way required in order

[5:05:16] to provide the road

[5:05:18] improvements identified in

[5:05:19] proffer conditions above for

[5:05:21] clothes and associated

[5:05:23] pedestrian facilities

[5:05:24] identified in the comprehensive

[5:05:26] plan including but not limited

[5:05:28] to easement required for

[5:05:30] utilities utilities locations

[5:05:31] grading and storm water

[5:05:33] management for the road

[5:05:34] improvements and any other

[5:05:35] property interests the

[5:05:36] applicant shall request the

[5:05:38] county to acquire the necessary

[5:05:40] property interest by exercising

[5:05:42] of its condemnation powers at

[5:05:44] the applicant's expense. The

[5:05:45] applicant request shall be in

[5:05:47] riding and shall comply and be

[5:05:49] in respect with the eminent

[5:05:51] domain policy this sounds to me

[5:05:52] like they have purchased a

[5:05:54] piece of land they don't have

[5:05:55] enough room to do what they

[5:05:57] want to do they are going to

[5:05:58] take more land of hebron

[5:06:00] property I think is kind of

[5:06:01] despicable to think that

[5:06:03] anybody would vote in favor and

[5:06:10] without and destroy established

[5:06:12] labor to put in infrastructure

[5:06:14] for a new housing department is

[5:06:17] not very neighborly also I sent

[5:06:18] everybody an email today I

[5:06:29] would like to read hopefully I

[5:06:30] will get through it welcome

[5:06:32] supervisor stuart I really look

[5:06:34] forward to having

[5:06:36] representation in gainesville

[5:06:37] again who is willing to listen

[5:06:39] to the residence last night I

[5:06:41] saw you at the small area plan

[5:06:43] for vint hill I'm really

[5:06:44] confused I feel the cats have

[5:06:46] been let out of the barn if you

[5:06:47] approve this project will not

[5:06:49] be able to put them back in

[5:06:51] what is the plan here?

[5:06:52] Are you just getting community

[5:06:54] outreach danny going to say

[5:06:55] your opinion did not matter

[5:06:56] there were a lot of people

[5:06:58] there last night were worried

[5:07:02] about their community I feel if

[5:07:04] you do approve this plan

[5:07:05] tonight you owe everybody an

[5:07:07] email who attended last night

[5:07:09] to say that you are sorry that

[5:07:10] you wasted their time and that

[5:07:12] their opinion really did not

[5:07:16] matter in any case. In western

[5:07:17] and of prince william county

[5:07:19] have been talking about the

[5:07:25] reinvestment I think this plan

[5:07:27] needs to be implement citizens

[5:07:28] possible design density housing

[5:07:30] in these rural areas is

[5:07:31] detrimental to the residents

[5:07:33] and mourners who have invested

[5:07:36] so much into their community

[5:07:37] only to have it plowed over and

[5:07:39] impacts their quality of life

[5:07:40] that they have worked so hard

[5:07:43] to develop some help this is

[5:07:44] nothing fair especially if the

[5:07:45] new development impacts things

[5:07:47] like road schools and their

[5:07:49] wells adding 2000 houses is

[5:07:50] going to bring a lot of school

[5:07:52] age children and how will that

[5:07:54] affect the traffic in the area

[5:08:01] as well as the schools in the

[5:08:03] classroom especially since

[5:08:04] multiple schools are slated to

[5:08:07] be overcapacity right from the

[5:08:08] same time to small area plan

[5:08:12] would be due. Which would be

[5:08:13] spending two more years trying

[5:08:15] to figure out where he will

[5:08:16] send the kids. Then I came

[5:08:18] across two very interesting

[5:08:20] pieces of information this week

[5:08:21] one from dep with virginia

[5:08:23] trout monitoring task force

[5:08:30] they have expended the drought

[5:08:32] advisory to 50 counties and 23

[5:08:34] cities prince william county is

[5:08:36] included in this all origin is

[5:08:38] encouraged to protect water

[5:08:40] supply by minimizing water use

[5:08:41] and monitoring drought

[5:08:43] conditions how is that water

[5:08:45] study coming in prince william

[5:08:46] county are you guys prepared to

[5:08:48] pay for people's wells that are

[5:08:51] affected by this?

[5:08:52] Another piece of news cannot

[5:08:54] from nbc washington according

[5:08:57] to a report from the national

[5:08:58] association of realtors

[5:09:00] first-time homebuyers are

[5:09:01] putting in average of 10% down

[5:09:03] and most of them are getting

[5:09:05] loans from family or friends

[5:09:07] the average first-time

[5:09:09] homebuyer is now four years old

[5:09:11] all-time high the national

[5:09:13] association of realtors says an

[5:09:15] economist says you need

[5:09:16] household income of about

[5:09:17] $300,000 if you want to

[5:09:19] purchase a single-family

[5:09:20] detached home in northern

[5:09:22] virginia. It seems to me that

[5:09:23] times are changing and that

[5:09:25] prince william county is again

[5:09:27] behind the ball. Please defer

[5:09:28] denied this project until

[5:09:30] adequate proffers and or

[5:09:32] decreased density are in place.

[5:09:33] Thank you very much.

[5:09:34] >> Chair Jefferson:

[5:09:36] >> Andrea Bailey,Vice Chair:

[5:09:38] thank you MISS Growth.

[5:09:39] >> the second speakers are

[5:09:40] smacked.

[5:09:41] >> Andrea Bailey,Vice Chair:

[5:09:43] MS. Carol please begin.

[5:09:47] >> MS. Carol you can begin.

[5:09:47] >>.

[5:09:52] [Listing names] I would like to

[5:09:55] request five minutes of.

[5:10:01] [Listing names] I live in

[5:10:03] principal as you all know

[5:10:04] welcome supervisor stuart I

[5:10:06] actually live along vint hill

[5:10:08] road owls nest is my point of

[5:10:12] access into the world how I get

[5:10:19] around.

[5:10:21] I traversed this area very

[5:10:22] regularly. What I heard tonight

[5:10:24] was a discussion of a lot of

[5:10:25] things around about adele's

[5:10:31] best fire station land for fire

[5:10:33] station land for middle school

[5:10:34] the curve on the vint hill road

[5:10:36] and how that is going to be

[5:10:37] addressed.

[5:10:38] Let's be clear those are not

[5:10:40] proffers associated with this

[5:10:41] application.

[5:10:43] I heard a lot of discussion of

[5:10:44] proffers and mitigation and

[5:10:50] what other projects are doing

[5:10:51] my understanding is that you

[5:10:53] all are not allowed to discuss

[5:10:55] any proffers that commit board

[5:10:57] to future vote I pulled the

[5:10:58] zoning ordinance while I was

[5:11:11] listening to all. It is pretty

[5:11:12] clear is pretty explicit only

[5:11:14] those written and graphic

[5:11:15] materials that have been

[5:11:16] referenced in a proper

[5:11:18] statement MAY be displayed in

[5:11:19] the public hearing before the

[5:11:21] planning commission or the

[5:11:22] board of county supervisors why

[5:11:25] are we really discussing this

[5:11:27] year we're discussing

[5:11:29] strathmore a standalone

[5:11:33] application we are discussing

[5:11:35] strathmore's impacts on schools

[5:11:37] strathmore's impacts on roads.

[5:11:39] Strathmore's impact on our

[5:11:40] natural resources like the

[5:11:42] watershed like our fire

[5:11:43] department our parks our

[5:11:44] libraries and I appreciate what

[5:11:51] the applicant has done with

[5:11:53] their master plan. I want to

[5:11:55] just the developer and the

[5:11:56] master plan I was a little

[5:11:58] confused again this was brought

[5:12:00] up tonight. So I went in and

[5:12:01] pulled it well and listen to

[5:12:03] all speak it was submitted on

[5:12:03] APRIL 22, 2025.

[5:12:05] Over six months ago. Over six

[5:12:07] months ago before the committee

[5:12:09] meeting before the planning

[5:12:11] commission hearings. Before the

[5:12:15] small area plan kickoff. None

[5:12:16] of four silver bell which the

[5:12:18] applicant acknowledged was only

[5:12:20] submitted about six weeks ago.

[5:12:21] Silver bell is not even in

[5:12:23] there in a comprehensive

[5:12:24] manner. I'm a little confused

[5:12:26] by this developer master plan

[5:12:28] is now being held up as the

[5:12:29] plan for the vint hill area.

[5:12:31] In the vint hill quarter when

[5:12:33] last night my family we raised

[5:12:34] our schedule so my husband

[5:12:36] could take the time to be at a

[5:12:46] vint hill small area kickoff

[5:12:48] meeting I thought that was the

[5:12:50] plan I'm confused is this the

[5:12:51] community driven process to

[5:12:53] develop at this area or is this

[5:12:54] the developer driven process

[5:12:56] when I hear about this

[5:12:58] developer master plan that

[5:12:59] butler was never presented to

[5:13:01] the community it was never

[5:13:02] presented to the community was

[5:13:04] there a committee meeting for

[5:13:06] the developer master plan?

[5:13:08] There was a community meeting

[5:13:10] for strathmore there was a

[5:13:11] committee meeting for stella

[5:13:13] martin project and a committee

[5:13:14] meeting for cheryl resource

[5:13:16] probably I would say what about

[5:13:17] the traffic on the owls nest

[5:13:19] they said we not deal with owls

[5:13:21] nest we are strathmore senegal

[5:13:23] to save product he says we are

[5:13:25] not dealing with owls nest we

[5:13:26] are on the other side of the

[5:13:28] road than I go to the spec says

[5:13:30] we are that owls nest will not

[5:13:32] bring the density the community

[5:13:34] is not getting a fair answer

[5:13:35] then I'm expected to sit here

[5:13:37] and save the developer master

[5:13:39] plan has it all figured out the

[5:13:41] schools the road the fire

[5:13:42] department all of it let's be

[5:13:44] clear what is proffered from

[5:13:46] strathmore is less than $1

[5:13:47] million per schools it is less

[5:13:48] then $700,000 for parks.

[5:13:50] It is way less the matt forte

[5:13:51] higher.

[5:13:56] I'm a little confused if we are

[5:13:57] at a school board registering

[5:13:59] meeting or a board of county

[5:14:01] supervisors hearing because

[5:14:02] when you're sean patrick

[5:14:04] telling me for all these kids

[5:14:05] in the area going to go to

[5:14:07] school I have concerns because

[5:14:09] I did not vote for sean patrick

[5:14:11] my ballot for school board or

[5:14:12] board of county supervisors

[5:14:14] county chair I do appreciate

[5:14:16] supervisor stuart bring up the

[5:14:18] fatality and owls nest I was at

[5:14:20] that fatality within 10 minutes

[5:14:22] of happening with my kids in

[5:14:23] the car it was horrific.

[5:14:25] It was because of construction

[5:14:33] supervisor gordy is correct but

[5:14:35] there have been other accidents

[5:14:36] right in front of the house

[5:14:38] multiple accidents people being

[5:14:40] branded motorcycles a few weeks

[5:14:42] later our table and

[5:14:43] internetworking out there was

[5:14:45] an accident the cut the cable

[5:14:47] it is not just because of one

[5:14:48] person speeding or when

[5:14:50] construction there is a real

[5:14:52] problem in this area and adding

[5:14:53] density while I'm supportive of

[5:14:55] the roundabout and supportive

[5:14:58] of traffic improvements but

[5:15:00] adding density and not properly

[5:15:02] planning that is not a partisan

[5:15:03] issue you do not have the

[5:15:05] another set of any aisle to

[5:15:06] understand that poor planning

[5:15:08] is poor planning and the people

[5:15:10] that suffer are the people who

[5:15:12] live in the area. I appreciate

[5:15:13] that MR. Patrick sent out

[5:15:16] mailers people within a 1 mile

[5:15:17] radius when I see that he is

[5:15:19] now talking about mitigation

[5:15:21] along the road along a 4 mile

[5:15:23] span of road brought all those

[5:15:24] people on that road century

[5:15:24] mailers MR.

[5:15:26] Patrick I don't

[5:15:27] think so I did not get one.

[5:15:29] >> Chair Jefferson: thank you

[5:15:30] MS. Carol next speaker please.

[5:15:32] >> there are no more speakers.

[5:15:34] >> Andrea Bailey,Vice Chair:

[5:16:26] questions or anything that he

[5:16:45] raised I will go to these

[5:16:49] to give you some additional

[5:16:50] perspective on some of these

[5:16:52] there was a comment about the

[5:16:53] small area plan and the timing

[5:16:55] of the small area plan while it

[5:16:57] is not ideal for small area

[5:16:59] plan was conceptualized and

[5:17:01] initiated after these rezoning

[5:17:04] applications were filed it is

[5:17:08] not incongruous the small area

[5:17:10] plan will continue to have a

[5:17:11] very important purpose. In

[5:17:13] looking at the remaining

[5:17:16] properties and for the

[5:17:18] different infrastructure

[5:17:20] decisions that are going to be

[5:17:21] made for this area in the

[5:17:24] future.

[5:17:26] As the planning director said

[5:17:27] small area plan will cover a

[5:17:33] much larger area as well.

[5:17:34] If you look at the map I don't

[5:17:36] have it on the screen now if

[5:17:37] you look at the map and you

[5:17:39] look at the seven rezoning

[5:17:40] applications that are being

[5:17:42] discussed this evening in the

[5:17:44] context of our one our 155 acre

[5:17:47] rezoning application there is

[5:17:50] quite a bit of land left and

[5:17:52] there would be we've had a

[5:17:54] little operation because of the

[5:17:55] three developers involved in

[5:17:57] this article or case the small

[5:17:58] area plan will assure the

[5:18:03] continued cooperation and

[5:18:04] consistency of future

[5:18:06] applications that you would

[5:18:07] receive in this area. With

[5:18:09] respect to the amount of

[5:18:10] traffic on vint hill road vint

[5:18:12] hill road after the development

[5:18:14] after the traffic impact

[5:18:16] analysis was completed which

[5:18:17] added traffic from this

[5:18:19] proposal has about a 30% pass

[5:18:20] through traffic on it that is

[5:18:35] traffic that is coming from

[5:18:36] vulture county or other

[5:18:38] pointing going into prince

[5:18:39] william county and

[5:18:40] back-and-forth that is while we

[5:18:42] have a state highway department

[5:18:44] because roads are not traveled

[5:18:47] just within the county people

[5:18:48] go from one county to the next

[5:18:50] we have to recognize the fact

[5:18:51] that traffic is going to grow

[5:18:53] on vint hill road as adjoining

[5:18:56] counties grow and as implement

[5:18:57] opportunities grown prince

[5:18:59] william county but whatever

[5:19:00] residential not the traffic and

[5:19:02] the road is going to be widened

[5:19:04] and it is going to need

[5:19:06] additional improvement in fact

[5:19:07] it's already in our

[5:19:09] comprehensive plan for some

[5:19:11] substantial improvement as MR.

[5:19:13] Paolo explained when he was

[5:19:14] standing there.

[5:19:15] Traffic impact analysis also

[5:19:17] want to explain is a very

[5:19:19] complicated and sophisticated

[5:19:20] computer modeling process that

[5:19:23] is completed by professionals

[5:19:24] this is not a group of

[5:19:25] developers going out and saying

[5:19:27] we think it is going to be this

[5:19:29] many trips are that many trips

[5:19:31] there are companies that make a

[5:19:33] great deal of effort and apply

[5:19:35] their best professional

[5:19:36] knowledge as well as I said

[5:19:39] before automated techniques for

[5:19:40] determining how traffic might

[5:19:41] grow.

[5:19:42] His is a very

[5:19:44] substantial effort that is been

[5:19:45] undertaken not only by

[5:19:47] strathmore for their particular

[5:19:49] project which did not show any

[5:19:49] negative impact on traffic

[5:19:51] capacity on vint hill road but

[5:19:52] also with the collective

[5:19:54] efforts of the seven developers

[5:19:57] who are part of the vint hill

[5:19:59] application. There was little

[5:20:00] discussion about the white oak

[5:20:03] tree and uncertain see about

[5:20:04] the white tree the rest of the

[5:20:06] property line that is more on

[5:20:08] the adjoining property line

[5:20:09] that it is on the brookville

[5:20:11] property it would make it clear

[5:20:12] the field has done everything

[5:20:14] it can on its property and it

[5:20:16] is even offered with the

[5:20:18] applicant with the neighbors

[5:20:19] permission to go on to their

[5:20:21] property and apply the chemist

[5:20:23] that which is a chemical that

[5:20:24] is very effective in preserving

[5:20:26] trees that are being disturbed

[5:20:27] or their roots are being

[5:20:29] disturbed to try to slow the

[5:20:30] growth during a couple of

[5:20:34] seasons after the construction

[5:20:35] occurs. So if there is lesser

[5:20:38] impact on the strathmore side

[5:20:39] it was clearly said they have

[5:20:40] done what they can and they

[5:20:42] have complied with the design

[5:20:44] and construction standards

[5:20:46] requirements for critical root

[5:20:53] zone protection.

[5:20:55] There is 46% open space on this

[5:20:57] property I think that got

[5:20:58] overlooked as we were going

[5:21:00] through some of the comments.

[5:21:01] That is a very significant

[5:21:03] amount of open space on the

[5:21:05] development of the size and

[5:21:06] part of the reason that is

[5:21:12] possible is your smaller lots

[5:21:14] we talked for years about what

[5:21:15] we need to cluster development

[5:21:17] to preserve our natural

[5:21:19] resources and preserve

[5:21:21] environmental sensitive areas

[5:21:23] like wetlands that's exactly

[5:21:24] what is developers doing that

[5:21:26] is why we are 40% 46% open

[5:21:27] space is because those wetlands

[5:21:29] are being protected the design

[5:21:31] is sensitive to the

[5:21:33] environmental sensitivity of

[5:21:34] the particular property.

[5:21:36] a comment was made about the

[5:21:41] eminent domain proffer is in

[5:21:43] the proper conditions want you

[5:21:44] to note that as of property

[5:21:46] condition the county has been

[5:21:47] accepting for 35 years that

[5:21:49] came up a really fun time ago

[5:21:51] it is the result of a need that

[5:21:52] was recognized by the county

[5:21:54] and the county attorney's

[5:21:56] office up to crafted that many

[5:22:02] years ago that was necessary

[5:22:05] because occasionally you need

[5:22:06] to get a sliver of land from

[5:22:08] the property next door you need

[5:22:10] to get an easement for the

[5:22:11] storm water pipe that needs to

[5:22:13] go under the road a private

[5:22:15] property owner cannot get those

[5:22:16] things on their own. That is

[5:22:18] why they look to the government

[5:22:20] to help them with that is not

[5:22:22] stealing anyone's property is

[5:22:23] being done on the basis of the

[5:22:29] greater good consistent with

[5:22:31] the county's authority to make

[5:22:33] decisions for the greater good

[5:22:35] and to provide for the public

[5:22:36] safety and public

[5:22:37] infrastructure is necessary to

[5:22:38] serve us all.

[5:22:40] The fact that the average

[5:22:41] first-time buyer was reported

[5:22:43] to be 40 years old that is

[5:22:45] pointing directly to the issues

[5:22:47] that are mentioned at the very

[5:22:48] beginning that we have a

[5:22:50] housing crisis in this country

[5:22:52] housing crisis is the direct

[5:22:54] result of people opposing

[5:22:55] housing wherever it might go.

[5:22:56] I can tell you that every

[5:22:58] application that we process

[5:23:00] I've been doing it for a long

[5:23:02] time there are people who are

[5:23:04] opposed to the housing on the

[5:23:09] property next door every one

[5:23:11] agrees we need more for the

[5:23:12] housing everybody joints their

[5:23:14] own children to be able to buy

[5:23:16] homes and to have the

[5:23:17] opportunity that they had to

[5:23:19] gain the wealth through the

[5:23:21] purchase of a home when it's in

[5:23:22] their neighborhood they don't

[5:23:22] want it.

[5:23:26] Hat type of approach

[5:23:27] and attitude is making it

[5:23:30] extremely difficult for you as

[5:23:32] a governing body to make sure

[5:23:34] that everybody has housing and

[5:23:38] has opportunity to buy housing

[5:23:39] in the county so you can there

[5:23:41] is a direct correlation the

[5:23:47] availability of housing to the

[5:23:49] employment opportunities and

[5:23:50] tax base in the county. If you

[5:23:52] have any additional questions

[5:23:55] if there's anything you want me

[5:23:57] to expound upon happy to try to

[5:23:59] do that hope this evening you

[5:24:00] will be able to take action on

[5:24:02] this case which is been in it

[5:24:04] since FEBRUARY 2023 not APRIL

[5:24:05] but since

[5:24:06] FEBRUARY 2023.

[5:24:07] >> Chair Jefferson: all right

[5:24:09] thank you I don't see anybody

[5:24:12] amadeus jumping thank you much

[5:24:14] for the clarification I don't

[5:24:16] know if staff has anything who

[5:24:25] has a good

[5:24:26] .

[5:24:28] >> Tom Gordy: thank you to the

[5:24:29] folks that came out and spoke

[5:24:31] tonight thank you for again for

[5:24:32] all the work is done by our

[5:24:37] staff to help us get a better

[5:24:38] approach a smarter approach

[5:24:40] more holistic approach to try

[5:24:42] to be thousand needs of this

[5:24:44] community in prince william

[5:24:48] county while it is definitely

[5:24:54] different my hope is that we

[5:24:56] get better development as a

[5:24:57] result of it MADAM Chair I move

[5:24:58] to approve item 13 a

[5:24:59] .

[5:25:00] >> Kenny Boddye: I second the

[5:25:04] motion

[5:25:05] .

[5:25:07] >> Chair Jefferson: it's been

[5:25:08] probably moved and seconded in

[5:25:08] the

[5:25:09] discussion.

[5:25:11] >> Kenny Boddye: I will be

[5:25:13] quick on this one person wanted

[5:25:18] to thank supervisor gordy for

[5:25:20] his vision on this note as you

[5:25:21] said before you pump the brakes

[5:25:24] on this a lot not really got

[5:25:25] into this alongside this

[5:25:26] applicant and build applicant

[5:25:28] we are here to talk about this

[5:25:30] product and will stay there

[5:25:31] what this product hundred and

[5:25:33] 68 presidential dwelling units

[5:25:35] 17 affordable units $840,000

[5:25:37] goes to the school of

[5:25:38] compliments on your mind

[5:25:40] sections planning commission

[5:25:42] and staff recommended approval

[5:25:44] for rezoning is itself a single

[5:25:46] gas on the comprehensive plan

[5:25:53] as staff reported out we see

[5:25:55] this as an opportunity to do

[5:25:56] things differently as

[5:25:58] supervisor gordy said also in

[5:26:00] the context I appreciate scott

[5:26:02] myers for calmness and the

[5:26:04] compensation we had along the

[5:26:05] way context matters again this

[5:26:07] is not some far-flung court

[5:26:09] over rural areas this is next

[5:26:19] to a planned residential

[5:26:20] community at one point was also

[5:26:22] a form that somebody at some

[5:26:24] point did not want to happen we

[5:26:26] need to make sure that we have

[5:26:27] that in context and continue to

[5:26:29] look at this project and other

[5:26:31] projects as well I want to

[5:26:33] highlight the almost 50% open

[5:26:34] space that is been preserved

[5:26:36] here that is important because

[5:26:38] again as we look at context as

[5:26:39] we shift away from more

[5:26:41] developed areas in the suburbia

[5:26:43] proper that kind of

[5:26:44] preservation open space helps

[5:26:46] to create the context of us see

[5:26:48] a more gradual transition to a

[5:26:50] more rural area both south

[5:26:52] across vint hill road as we go

[5:26:53] west with the potter county

[5:26:55] line I think that's important

[5:26:57] point ultimately as was said by

[5:26:58] some of the speakers but by

[5:27:00] supervisor gordy and by the

[5:27:01] applicant we have a shortage of

[5:27:03] housing in this region in this

[5:27:07] county you cannot get at that

[5:27:08] housing affordability we cannot

[5:27:10] stabilize housing prices

[5:27:11] midcounty if we don't approve

[5:27:13] more housing for us it's a

[5:27:14] simple as that. But I do

[5:27:19] appreciate about this project

[5:27:21] they are looking at a continuum

[5:27:23] of housing types not just

[5:27:25] having one cookie-cutter type

[5:27:27] that is over the entire thing

[5:27:28] like we see with other housing

[5:27:31] in presidential development I

[5:27:32] wanted to highlight and say

[5:27:34] that both MS. Context of this

[5:27:36] project but in the greater

[5:27:37] context of what is coming after

[5:27:39] that having a diversity of

[5:27:41] housing is out we are able to

[5:27:43] provide an opportunity several

[5:27:44] people have not only a place to

[5:27:46] live but homeownership which is

[5:27:47] a way to start generating

[5:27:49] wealth and build a social

[5:27:50] ladder to climb up in the world

[5:27:52] we cannot get it that

[5:27:52] if we

[5:27:54] don't approve and build more

[5:27:56] housing in responsible smarts

[5:27:58] ways like this one I support

[5:27:59] just thank you manager.

[5:28:00] >

[5:28:01] Yesli Vega: thank you to the

[5:28:03] residence of the brentsville

[5:28:04] district document to speak I

[5:28:18] think you to the county staff

[5:28:20] thank you to the applicant as

[5:28:22] well I know supervisor gordy

[5:28:24] you have put in a lot of time

[5:28:25] and effort in this project with

[5:28:27] that being said I do recognize

[5:28:30] the county has developed a

[5:28:31] document from 1990 which

[5:28:33] predates the constitutional

[5:28:34] amendment that was adopted in

[5:28:36] 2012 I will read that for

[5:28:38] awareness it says taking of

[5:28:39] private property is not for

[5:28:40] public use if the primary use

[5:28:42] is for private gain private

[5:28:44] benefit increasing jobs

[5:28:46] increasing tax revenue or

[5:28:47] economic to vomit what we've

[5:28:48] established your tonight is

[5:28:50] simple and very clear this road

[5:28:52] widening is not needed today by

[5:28:54] the public it becomes necessary

[5:28:56] only because seven private

[5:28:58] developments are adding

[5:28:59] thousands of new trips to his

[5:29:00] corridor without those projects

[5:29:02] this improvement would not be

[5:29:04] required I think we made that

[5:29:06] very clear based on the answers

[5:29:08] provided by department of

[5:29:09] transportation that matters

[5:29:11] because when government uses

[5:29:13] its power especially the power

[5:29:16] to take property the virginia

[5:29:18] constitution requires that the

[5:29:19] primary purpose be public and

[5:29:21] not incidental. Not secondary

[5:29:23] primary. Clearly the primary

[5:29:25] driver is private development.

[5:29:26] The immediate benefit is

[5:29:29] private development that raises

[5:29:30] constitutional concerns permit

[5:29:32] the goal will be on the

[5:29:34] something is merely defensible

[5:29:35] in a legal proceeding or

[5:29:35] not. I

[5:29:37] take property rights very

[5:29:39] seriously everybody on this day

[5:29:41] is knows that I take the

[5:29:43] constitution seriously I cannot

[5:29:45] in good faith support rezoning

[5:29:47] is critical unstructured needs

[5:29:48] exist only because a private

[5:29:50] project demands it. That

[5:29:51] manager I will be voting no.

[5:29:53] >> Chair Jefferson: anyone else

[5:29:54] before I speak.

[5:29:56] >> George Stewart: I do believe

[5:29:58] in housing I do believe we do

[5:30:00] need more housing I just

[5:30:02] believe it needs to happen in

[5:30:03] the right way it needs to

[5:30:04] happen also in the right area.

[5:30:06] I don't think this is the right

[5:30:08] area I don't think this is the

[5:30:09] right way.

[5:30:10] Unfortunately I will also be

[5:30:11] voting no.

[5:30:13] >> Chair Jefferson: all right

[5:30:15] real quickly I am going to jump

[5:30:16] and I apologize to everyone I

[5:30:18] really truly meant to attend

[5:30:20] the vint hill small area plan

[5:30:22] last night unfortunately I did

[5:30:24] have core issues that is why I

[5:30:30] was unable to attend I've been

[5:30:32] going to listen to the comments

[5:30:34] breeding females we got I will

[5:30:36] say yes jessica grote were

[5:30:37] right you will need around

[5:30:39] $300,000 to porterhouse

[5:30:40] nowadays you need to have two

[5:30:41] incomes the problem I think is

[5:30:44] because we are behind it people

[5:30:45] that is causing the problems

[5:30:46] with portability we are behind

[5:30:56] it people obviously I would

[5:30:58] like to conserve land that's a

[5:30:59] whole separate compensation

[5:31:01] that we need to have what is

[5:31:03] the best way to preserve land?

[5:31:05] Just as those who oppose this

[5:31:07] project we feel it compromises

[5:31:08] their own quality of life I

[5:31:10] just want to be careful with

[5:31:13] that have a home that you love

[5:31:15] I want other people to have a

[5:31:19] home that they love.

[5:31:21] We cannot do that right now in

[5:31:23] this moment. Without looking at

[5:31:24] different ways to create more

[5:31:30] housing stock.

[5:31:31] I will not going to say we have

[5:31:34] a housing crisis we have an

[5:31:36] affordability crisis people

[5:31:42] cannot afford to live here.

[5:31:44] That is a problem that is

[5:31:45] something I take personally. I

[5:31:47] came to prince william county

[5:31:49] because this was the affordable

[5:31:51] place to be. It is not

[5:32:10] affordable anymore.

[5:32:12] Someone like me 10 years ago

[5:32:13] adjusting for inflation they

[5:32:14] still cannot afford to live

[5:32:16] there. I want people to be able

[5:32:18] to come to this community and

[5:32:19] make it their home. It is

[5:32:21] become so much harder. Because

[5:32:23] of that. I've heard a lot of

[5:32:24] people talk about at least on

[5:32:26] email talk about how density:

[5:32:28] this project is one project but

[5:32:31] the whole corridor as well high

[5:32:32] density. High density is

[5:32:34] multistory apartments they are

[5:32:34] condos.

[5:32:36] There is something that

[5:32:38] maximizes the land and building

[5:32:40] vertically. This is suburban

[5:32:41] developments. Just as people

[5:32:43] who have a single family homes

[5:32:45] love their homes we need more

[5:32:46] of that. Other people want to

[5:32:48] have their piece of the

[5:32:48] american dream.

[5:32:50] I cannot stand in the way of

[5:32:50] that.

[5:32:53] I think there is a lot of

[5:32:54] conversations we need to have

[5:32:56] around housing and land use.

[5:32:58] Again preservation is an

[5:32:59] important part of that

[5:33:01] discussion but just because you

[5:33:04] have your piece of the american

[5:33:05] dream don't deny to somebody

[5:33:07] else. I am supporting this

[5:33:08] project I am going to give

[5:33:10] praise to my colleague

[5:33:11] supervisor gordy I know you've

[5:33:13] taken some hits on this. I want

[5:33:15] to be very clear all of this

[5:33:16] stuff the ball on this project

[5:33:18] on these projects started

[5:33:21] before supervisor gordy and

[5:33:23] supervisor stuart government

[5:33:24] office yes the small area plan

[5:33:26] is playing catch-up it

[5:33:28] should've come many years prior

[5:33:30] but it didn't. I still see a

[5:33:33] need for that there is still

[5:33:34] still need to look at how this

[5:33:36] whole corridor is going to work

[5:33:37] together it is not ideal.

[5:33:39] But a lot of our government is

[5:33:43] not ideal.

[5:33:44] What I want to get away from

[5:33:46] what I like about this project

[5:33:48] is it is not piecemeal or

[5:33:49] patchwork.

[5:33:50] We have a lot of that in this

[5:33:52] county we have a lot of

[5:33:57] piecemeal patchwork projects

[5:33:58] that is why I'm supporting it

[5:34:00] and doing what to say to my

[5:34:04] colleagues supervisor gordy

[5:34:06] this is in your district I

[5:34:08] appreciate the work that you've

[5:34:10] done also trying to bring the

[5:34:11] different developers to the

[5:34:13] table I truly appreciate that.

[5:34:15] I will let you have a blessed

[5:34:15] lord.

[5:34:17] >> Victor Angry: I didn't want

[5:34:19] to speak I don't do this I feel

[5:34:21] the need to because I've been

[5:34:23] on this board six years you've

[5:34:31] heard it I'm the last standing

[5:34:32] longest surviving the sport is

[5:34:34] been over the place I'm talking

[5:34:36] to the board I've always said

[5:34:38] this the public gets to hear us

[5:34:40] we are fishable we talk to each

[5:34:42] other and not done they get

[5:34:44] treatments then begin a public

[5:34:45] hearing for an effort to

[5:34:47] support core all over the place

[5:34:49] support the district supervisor

[5:34:50] when they make a motion what's

[5:34:52] in their district it's been

[5:34:53] supported not supported there

[5:34:56] is one county in prince william

[5:34:57] county it is prince william

[5:35:01] county there is not seven

[5:35:03] counties in principal and

[5:35:04] county even the products we put

[5:35:06] in these districts we have an

[5:35:08] obligation at this board is the

[5:35:10] status to prevent move this

[5:35:11] county forward the staff does a

[5:35:13] great job with it the plan

[5:35:15] commission because a great job

[5:35:16] with it we have everything in

[5:35:18] place to do the job we supposed

[5:35:20] to be doing make these

[5:35:20] decisions.

[5:35:22] I'm sorry I love it's recorded

[5:35:24] in people get to hear but in

[5:35:26] talking to all supervisor gordy

[5:35:27] you put a whole lot of work

[5:35:29] into this you public on the

[5:35:30] best solution out of lowering

[5:35:32] density of which just to prove

[5:35:34] a public human way higher

[5:35:35] you've done all you could with

[5:35:38] this it is your product that is

[5:35:39] why I give you credit for the

[5:35:41] district that you represent you

[5:35:43] brought it to the board I think

[5:35:45] you brought a great product to

[5:35:47] the board I get everything that

[5:35:49] is been set around it at the

[5:35:50] end of the day when we talk

[5:35:52] about these housing and the

[5:35:54] prices housing in the county

[5:35:56] the only lower pricing when you

[5:35:58] get more homes built that is

[5:35:59] exactly what you did you could

[5:36:01] have done more but you did what

[5:36:03] you need to do to keep that

[5:36:04] corridor balanced that is what

[5:36:06] you've done I just want to say

[5:36:08] that folks typically spend a

[5:36:09] lot of time going around and

[5:36:11] stuff I will just operate there

[5:36:11] thanks

[5:36:13] supervisor gordy thank

[5:36:15] you I appreciate it.

[5:36:16] >> Chair Jefferson: all right.

[5:36:18] >> Tom Gordy: thank you for

[5:36:21] cheerful what you said about

[5:36:23] what is going on with housing

[5:36:24] and thank you everyone else for

[5:36:26] your input I just want to

[5:36:29] remind the community and at

[5:36:31] this board how we got to where

[5:36:33] we are right now.

[5:36:35] There was land for residential

[5:36:36] development along the linton

[5:36:39] whole quarter the people said

[5:36:41] don't put houses there.

[5:36:45] It had a sewer and water there

[5:36:47] were roads there were schools.

[5:36:50] What they said don't put

[5:36:53] houses there.

[5:36:55] What did they put their. Data

[5:37:00] centers.

[5:37:01] Raise your hand if you are

[5:37:03] happy about the data centers

[5:37:04] going along linton whole

[5:37:05] corridor?

[5:37:11] Nobody.

[5:37:16] When we govern in fear we end

[5:37:22] up with decisions like that.

[5:37:26] Now here we are 10 years later

[5:37:31] we have a housing crisis I do

[5:37:33] call it a crisis I don't know

[5:37:34] how my kids are ever going to

[5:37:36] be able afford house if it were

[5:37:37] not for homeownership I would

[5:37:39] still be paying student loan

[5:37:43] debt.

[5:37:44] If it were not for

[5:37:46] homeownership I would still be

[5:37:48] stuck with a lot more debt but

[5:37:50] homeownership is the greatest

[5:37:52] opportunity in this country

[5:37:54] wealth building.

[5:37:55] Right now in prince william

[5:37:57] county upward mobility has come

[5:38:05] to a screeching halt.

[5:38:06] I know this because I get

[5:38:08] complaints from neighborhoods

[5:38:10] like braemar complaining about

[5:38:12] the number of families living

[5:38:13] in a house.

[5:38:16] Jamming up the road with cars

[5:38:22] we can be blind to the problem

[5:38:23] but the reality is we are going

[5:38:25] to have to build houses

[5:38:33] somewhere.

[5:38:35] Now we've got to find a way to

[5:38:36] adjust this if we don't build

[5:38:38] it here they are going to build

[5:38:40] it somewhere else.

[5:38:41] He will build it in culpeper

[5:38:44] bulkier stafford go to

[5:38:45] fleetwood in the morning and

[5:38:47] see much traffic is coming to

[5:38:49] prince william county from

[5:38:52] stafford county guests who will

[5:38:53] have to pay to fix fleetwood

[5:38:55] how taxpayers will still have

[5:38:57] to use eminent domain on that

[5:38:59] except it's for public deed

[5:39:00] caused by stafford county. We

[5:39:02] get no economic benefit from it

[5:39:09] but we have to pay for it.

[5:39:10] This is going to be a repeated

[5:39:16] pattern of bad behavior if we

[5:39:18] don't take a look at the need

[5:39:20] that we have before us and

[5:39:21] begin to address this prince

[5:39:22] william county as part of

[5:39:24] northern virginia.

[5:39:25] While I do want to preserve

[5:39:27] open space and have a directive

[5:39:29] aimed at doing just that so we

[5:39:42] can establish a free market

[5:39:44] approach to land conservation

[5:39:45] and land preservation through

[5:39:47] pdr purchase department rights

[5:39:49] transfer debarment rights and

[5:39:50] conservation easements.

[5:39:52] So we also have a plan for that

[5:39:54] but he gets back to 1.5

[5:39:55] continue to use since I got

[5:40:00] sworn and it is about balance.

[5:40:01] Right now we are out of

[5:40:03] balance. We are out of balance

[5:40:05] with data centers we have too

[5:40:06] many of them to we have to get

[5:40:09] it back to balance. We have out

[5:40:10] of balance and housing a

[5:40:11] single-family home on a less

[5:40:13] than half acre lot in my

[5:40:14] district just went for $1.9

[5:40:16] million.

[5:40:19] It is insane what's happening

[5:40:22] guess what that means our taxes

[5:40:23] are going up.

[5:40:26] We will pay for

[5:40:41] this one way or the other.

[5:40:42] By saying no there is a

[5:40:44] downstream effects. On all of

[5:40:46] us by saying yes there is a

[5:40:47] downstream effect on all of us.

[5:40:49] My job is to figure out what is

[5:40:51] the right balance I think we

[5:40:53] strike the right balance here I

[5:40:55] will continue to work to try to

[5:40:56] strike that right balance

[5:40:58] because it is what is necessary

[5:40:59] for a good community.

[5:41:01] I appreciate all the hard work

[5:41:03] that is here I appreciate we

[5:41:05] will agree to disagree amongst

[5:41:06] ourselves that is okay. When

[5:41:08] it's all said and done you will

[5:41:10] get together we will still

[5:41:11] respect one another we will

[5:41:13] continue to work for the good

[5:41:14] of this community. I appreciate

[5:41:16] all the input that people are

[5:41:18] afraid we just got to continue

[5:41:20] to work towards the right

[5:41:22] balance I appreciate all the

[5:41:23] work has been done so far we

[5:41:25] will continue to do thank you.

[5:41:27] >> Chair Jefferson: thank you

[5:41:29] very much I would like call for

[5:41:29] the vote.

[5:41:34] >> motion passes 6/2 supervisor

[5:41:38] vega until PRESIDENT Stewart

[5:41:45] supervisor stuart

[5:41:45] .

[5:41:47] >> Chair Jefferson: it's what

[5:41:49] happened when I don't have the

[5:41:51] agenda public comment time I'm

[5:41:52] sorry who do we have.

[5:41:54] We have

[5:41:54] .

[5:42:19] [Listing names] Then we have

[5:42:20] this is public comment if you

[5:42:22] want to quickly take the sign

[5:42:24] off do we have another sign-up

[5:42:32] sheet back there.

[5:42:33] You can go ahead and then we

[5:42:37] have other people we can you

[5:42:42] have three minutes.

[5:42:46] >> this is pertaining to

[5:42:49] default on what topic for

[5:42:49] .

[5:42:51] >> Chair Jefferson: you can

[5:42:56] topic.

[5:42:57] Are you prepared or should I

[5:42:59] invite the other one backup.

[5:43:02] >> I think I'm prepared this

[5:43:04] applicant is not part of the

[5:43:07] medial contribution to the

[5:43:09] widening of the comprehensive

[5:43:10] road plan which is what the

[5:43:30] other developers are proposing

[5:43:32] to do to vint hill road they

[5:43:34] made no contribution to the

[5:43:36] road they are taking 10 school

[5:43:38] credits from knoxville and

[5:43:39] transfer those 10 school

[5:43:41] credits leaders school is at an

[5:43:43] expansion each school has 10

[5:43:44] the overcapacity. Why is the

[5:43:47] plan commission by the board of

[5:43:49] supervisors not more hundred

[5:43:51] percent involved with the

[5:43:52] school board as a whole the

[5:43:54] find out you will find these

[5:43:56] they offered to new sites in.

[5:43:57] [Listing names] No school in

[5:44:03] this strap development who will

[5:44:05] fund the schools $300 million

[5:44:13] is what they quoted I'm

[5:44:14] crunching the numbers because

[5:44:16] the planning commission asked

[5:44:18] the developer stanley martin

[5:44:19] how much will he make profit

[5:44:21] for house he said $30,000

[5:44:21] 300c

[5:44:23] 000 $300 million will fund

[5:44:24] the schools we cannot continue

[5:44:28] to put the burden of taxation

[5:44:30] on the residence of this county

[5:44:31] to keep funding for roads and

[5:44:33] keep funding the schools when

[5:44:35] the developers need the proper

[5:44:37] office and make a concession to

[5:44:39] the county as part of their

[5:44:41] development package going back

[5:44:43] to what they said if we were

[5:44:45] building schools was going to

[5:44:46] find these calls will state is

[5:44:48] a negative drag it does not

[5:44:50] produce economics for the

[5:44:52] county more taxation more

[5:44:53] taxation will virtually be

[5:44:55] taxed out of the county this

[5:44:56] happened to me in fairfax

[5:44:58] county I dealt with the

[5:45:01] planning tax administration

[5:45:14] .

[5:45:16] Real estate is a negative

[5:45:18] amortization does not bring

[5:45:20] economic growth to the county

[5:45:21] more houses more houses

[5:45:22] changing the rural present

[5:45:24] density zoning to what's called

[5:45:26] moral planned master

[5:45:31] development the next seven

[5:45:39] applicants are still 1000

[5:45:41] houses is 150. The next guy has

[5:45:42] 24th yes 476.

[5:45:46] Too much is too much more

[5:45:47] housing for housing is not

[5:45:52] bringing a relief to the

[5:45:53] problem houses do not bring

[5:45:59] economic spread the more houses

[5:46:00] will not bring down the price

[5:46:02] of the house. The builder wants

[5:46:04] to maximize their

[5:46:05] profitability.

[5:46:06] We can build and build and we

[5:46:08] destroy the whole question

[5:46:09] prince william county.

[5:46:16] >> Chair Jefferson: I am sorry

[5:46:18] just say your name and we

[5:46:19] reside woman temporally set.

[5:46:21] >> my name is paul short I

[5:46:21] reside on

[5:46:22] the brentsville

[5:46:24] district and owls nest road.

[5:46:25] >> Chair Jefferson: next

[5:46:27] speaker sacred name when you

[5:46:31] reside is a county attorney who

[5:46:33] will look at me if we don't do

[5:46:33] it.

[5:46:35] >> did you get my name is amy

[5:46:37] crosby a live-in respect to the

[5:46:39] principal district I do think

[5:46:40] this the right location I

[5:46:42] believe that because I know

[5:46:48] vint hill myself we currently

[5:46:50] bulkier from prince william

[5:46:51] county almost 5 years he's been

[5:46:53] a mechanic it's the right

[5:46:55] location because what I'm

[5:46:56] seeing more often than not is

[5:46:59] families phaseout which is what

[5:47:00] I believe I wrote inside the in

[5:47:02] the article it was the family

[5:47:03] please outperforming and no

[5:47:05] longer want to do that all the

[5:47:07] current residents MAY want to

[5:47:09] hold off and not want that was

[5:47:10] to save their children will

[5:47:12] want to maintain at the same

[5:47:13] location in 20 or 30 years we

[5:47:15] don't have any homes we could

[5:47:17] have data centers as atrocious

[5:47:19] it is a great location however

[5:47:20] the traffic study I think the

[5:47:22] biggest key here vint hill road

[5:47:24] is a dangerous road and I do

[5:47:26] think infrastructure needs to

[5:47:27] change regardless of these

[5:47:29] homes coming in I think it's

[5:47:31] been dangerous for a while hope

[5:47:33] you guys will look at that also

[5:47:36] look at the water rollins horde

[5:47:38] that can be a great area of

[5:47:39] connection I think that needs

[5:47:41] to be figured in with

[5:47:42] connecting doors and eminent

[5:47:44] domain is the lower part of the

[5:47:46] water brought right which no

[5:47:48] bridges in over it so it can

[5:47:49] connect and people can go a

[5:47:51] different way that would help

[5:47:51] ease congestion.

[5:47:53] Then looking at lake manassas

[5:47:55] is used for the city of

[5:47:56] manassas could be used to help

[5:47:58] water with the prince william

[5:48:00] water on the side of the county

[5:48:02] and the way thank you again

[5:48:07] this was a great first meeting

[5:48:08] for me hope to see you again

[5:48:09] soon.
