On motion of Mr. King, seconded by Mr. Sowder, the Board approved the minutes of July 25, 2007, as submitted.

Mr. Stegmaier recognized and thanked county employees and residents who volunteered at the 72nd Annual Conference and Exposition of the National Association of Counties (NACo) held July 13-17, 2007 at the Richmond Convention Center. Each volunteer was presented a letter from the County Administrator in appreciation of his or her service.

Mr. Stegmaier stated last week the county had to ask for voluntary restrictions on the use of water. He further stated, since the time the voluntary restrictions were requested, there has been a dramatic change in the weather in the region. He called forward Mr. Covington to provide the Board with an update on the reasons the voluntary restrictions were requested and how the situation has improved since that time.

Mr. Covington stated on August 13th, the county issued a request for voluntary water conservation measures, driven specifically by the low water levels in Lake Chesdin. He further stated the water level in Lake Chesdin ultimately dropped a total of 37 inches, and Swift Creek Reservoir dropped 24 inches. He stated the voluntary conservation measures included an odd-even address system for lawn irrigation on alternate days for a maximum of three days per week, and other non-essential uses of water were requested to be limited. He further stated, as a result of the recent rainfall, both Lake Chesdin and Swift Creek are full. He stated the impact of the rainfall was less significant in the James River, with the current flow still only 200 cubic feet per second away from voluntary restrictions. He noted that the drought has not had a major impact on private wells in the county, but there have been significant agricultural losses, which will be felt in the coming years. He stated, coincidentally, the Board is being asked today to schedule public hearings to consider a resolution approving a Regional Water Plan and an ordinance, which will formalize a Drought Response Plan and incorporate it into the county ordinance. He noted these items are related to the water supply plan Chesterfield has been developing as a result of state requirements in conjunction with members of the Appomattox River Water Authority.

In response to Mr. Miller’s question, Mr. Covington stated the county and other members of the Appomattox River Water Authority lifted the voluntary water conservation measures, effective August 20th.

Mr. Likins stated the Cooperative Extension office is a part of the Amelia/Chesterfield County Farm Service Agency area, which meets periodically with the National Resource Conservation Service and area farmers. He noted that agricultural statistics are monitored throughout the growing season.

Mr. Sowder stated concerns have been brought to his attention regarding buildings that are not properly numbered, according to county ordinances, especially along Midlothian Turnpike. He further stated he has spoken with both Environmental Engineering and the County Attorney’s Office, and it seems that part of the problem is lack of awareness of the ordinance. He requested that a reminder be sent out in utility bills of the requirement to have appropriate numbering for easy identification.

In response to Mr. Miller’s question, Mr. Micas stated buildings that are not located directly on the road must have a street number that is viewable within a certain distance of the road.

4. REQUESTS TO POSTPONE AGENDA ITEMS AND ADDITIONS, OR CHANGES IN THE ORDER OF PRESENTATION

WHEREAS, Mr. Lane B. Ramsey was first employed by Chesterfield County as an accountant in January 1972 after having served honorably in the U.S. Army, including two tours of duty in Vietnam; and

WHEREAS, in April 1987, Mr. Ramsey was appointed as acting County Administrator by the Board of Supervisors; and in September 1987, when Chesterfield County had a population of 181,500, Lane B. Ramsey was appointed as County Administrator, and held that position until August 13, 2007; and

WHEREAS, under his direction, Chesterfield County has earned a national reputation as a desirable, well-managed, diverse, innovative locality that is a leader among local governments in America; and

WHEREAS, Mr. Ramsey’s leadership has been instrumental in building a financial system that is one of the finest in the country, resulting in Chesterfield County’s attainment and retention of AAA bond ratings from Standard and Poor’s, Fitch and Moody’s, the nation’s three foremost bond-rating agencies, a distinction held by fewer than two dozen of the nation’s local governments; and

WHEREAS, because of Mr. Ramsey's emphasis on total quality and customer service, in 1994, Chesterfield County was awarded the U. S. Senate Productivity and Quality Award, and followed this with being selected twice for the Award for Continuing Excellence; and

WHEREAS, CNN/Money magazine named the county the “16th Best Place to Live in America”; and

WHEREAS, Mr. Ramsey’s leadership has garnered similar kudos and respect for the county from the business community, as evidenced by the results of the county’s Business Satisfaction Survey; and

WHEREAS, Lane B. Ramsey’s national reputation for leadership in local government led to his selection as the winner of the prestigious 1997 National Public Service Award from the National Academy for Public Administration; and

WHEREAS, a hallmark of Mr. Ramsey’s tenure has been his strong commitment to regional cooperation, as evidenced by his service on the boards of the Greater Richmond Convention Center Authority, which he chaired in 2002 and again in 2007; the Appomattox River Water Authority, which he currently chairs; the South Central Regional Sewer Authority, for which he also served as secretary and treasurer; along with serving as chair of the University of Virginia’s Institute of Government Advisory Committee; and also past service in a variety of other state and regional organizations; and

Mr. Miller presented the executed resolution to Mr. Ramsey, accompanied by his wife and granddaughters, Board members and Mr. Micas, expressed appreciation for his loyal service and outstanding leadership, and congratulated him on his retirement.

Mrs. Paula Ramsey unveiled a facsimile of the bronze plaque that will be placed on the Administration Building naming the building in Mr. Ramsey’s honor.

Mr. Miller stated, starting today with Mr. Ramsey, the county will be honoring retirees, with 25 or more years of service, with an acrylic statue, inscribed with their name and dates of service, including a picture of the front of the Historic Courthouse and a small brick hovering over a paved brick ring in front of the Courthouse. He further stated the brick symbolizes that every retiree with 25 years of service will now have an actual brick installed in this special ring with their name and years of service inscribed on the brick. He stated each retiree will also receive a watch that includes as its face the county seal. He then presented Mr. Ramsey with the first acrylic statue, inscribed with his name and dates of service, and a county watch. He also displayed a brick with Mr. Ramsey’s name and dates of service that will be permanently placed in front of the Historic Courthouse.

“I am overwhelmed. I never dreamed in my wildest dreams, first of all, that I would work in one place 35 years. But, I came to love Chesterfield County so much and there was so much going on here in such a fine community, there was just nothing I could do but stay; and then, to think that I would become County Administrator – that was not in my dreams or plans either, and circumstances happened that I was in the right place at the right time, and I have enjoyed almost every day of that 20 years. I am just overwhelmed at having a building named after me; I just don’t know what to say about that. I’ve worked in that building every day that it’s been open, and now that I’ve turned my keys in and can’t get in anymore, I get the building named after me. That’s wonderful, I thank you so much, and my grandchildren will enjoy that. I’m going to be embarrassed by it, but they will enjoy that. If you would just bear with me a moment, I would just like to, everything that was in that resolution is a result of teamwork from the highest level of the Board of Supervisors to the lowest level of this organization, and I think if we’ve done anything, it’s been to just have the ability to coordinate things between all of those various interests. But, I’d just like to mention a few people that have been special to me. Obviously, Jay has because we worked for 28 years together, and Jay has been a part of most every endeavor this county has made; and Pete Stith, I don’t know of a closer friend that I’ve ever had than Pete Stith. He has given me tremendous guidance, and Pete, the advice you gave me over the years about how we could improve our diversity efforts and not sacrifice a thing in doing it, but gain tremendously, has just been wonderful. In 1992, you were willing to come over in an acting position. You went through a national search, moved into that deputy’s position, and very quickly brought a division together that is probably under the most stress from the public of any division that we have here, and Pete, I thank you for that. Becky Dickson is not here, but she has moved through the budget position and gained the trust of the Board, and her knowledge and work in the budget area, and now she has moved into the human service area, and has brought those same relationship-building talents and the ability to work through and understand detail, and has worked on some special projects. It’s a tremendous team that has worked together there, and the others, Chief DuPuis and Chief Mauger are leading two of the finest departments in the country, and probably some areas that the Board doesn’t see so much; Karla Gerner and HRM has done tremendous work because all of the business practice efforts that we’ve put into place here have a connection with our HR functions, staffing, and training, and Karla has worked through this; and Don Kappel with his Public Affairs efforts; and Marilyn Cole has coordinated things in my office with the departments in such a seamless fashion; and Allan Carmody, who is fairly new on our leadership team, just hit the ground running and gained the Board’s trust in the budget process, and that’s a big responsibility – over a billion dollar budget, and I just can’t thank those folks enough. That’s the team that has put all this stuff together, and then beyond that, we’ve got the best group of constitutional officers here in Chesterfield County than anywhere in the state. There’s not a meeting that I go to that I don’t hear managers complaining about not getting along with their constitutional officers, and I hear from our constitutional officers that they go to meetings and hear from constitutional officers that they can’t get along with their managers. Things are very different in Chesterfield, and we have a reputation for that, and I could just go on and on. Department directors here – you have department directors with long tenure here, and you don’t have to go too far to find communities that department directors and leadership gets moved in an out like a revolving door. So, I could not be more proud of the support this team has given us, and Board members, you all have so much to be proud of, too. Mrs. Humphrey, first woman chairman in the history of Chesterfield County, so you left a mark here too. Mr. Warren, I remember when that Board came in in 1992, four out of five new Board members, and we were just a little bit nervous about what four new Board members might do, and thank you so much for giving this organization and our staff an opportunity to show you that we could deliver what you wanted. I personally appreciate that. Mr. Sowder, you’ve hit the ground running here, and I’ll never forget your comments just a few days after you took office that you had all the confidence in the world in this staff, and you thought Chesterfield had one of the best staffs anywhere in Virginia, and we appreciate that. And, Dickie, you are finishing your first term, I could say a lot of things, but I’m going to compliment you. I know you came into office with an objective and a passion to improve our relationships with the business community, and you could have gone about that in so many ways, but you came in and worked within the county’s system and changed the system rather than fight the system, and I appreciate that and I know today we have a better working relationship with our business community because of you, and I thank you for that. Just again, to let everyone know, Dickie and I didn’t have so much as a Coke on that flight back from Kansas. Mr. Miller, I just can’t say enough about you, I mean a man that would write an ode about you is a pretty special friend. I just have such admiration for you because of your honor, and when I think of statesman, I think of Mr. Miller because he is such an honest, honorable man. I know that when you say something, you can take it to the bank, and I’ve never found any different. You and I may have disagreed on many things, but you have never one time held that against me or the staff, and I just appreciate that. I just can’t say enough for all of you. It’s been a wonderful 35 years, and especially a wonderful 20 years. I don’t know how to end this other than to say thank you, and thank you for letting me be your county administrator.”
