During the draft ing of the RFP, the scope of the regional plan expanded to include the Appomattox, Chickahominy, and Pamunkey Rivers. Aft er receiving proposals, the group reconvened in August 2013 to review them and selected Timmons Group to prepare the plan. In 2015, a group of four funders including the Altria, WestRock Foundation (formerly MeadWestvaco Foundation), Custis Westham Fund of Th e Community Foundation, and Th e Cameron Foundation awarded the James River Association grants to coordinate the creation of the plan. Th e James River Association executed a contract with Timmons Group on March 3, 2015, which commenced the planning process for the creation of this plan.

  • Capital Improvement Program
    FY2021-25 CAPITAL IMPROVEMENT 21PROGRAM CHESTERFIELD COUNTY, VA CAPITAL IMPROVEMENT PROGRAM FY2021-FY2025 Chesterfield County, VA 1 FY2021 – FY2025 CIP Executive Summary FY2021 CAPITAL IMPROVEMENT PROGRAM EXECUTIVE SUMMARY Overview Chesterfield County, in accordance with state code and the County Charter, prepares a five-year Capital Improvement Program (CIP). The CIP, revised annually, is a long-term planning tool that guides the design, financing, construction, and maintenance of public infrastructure. In addition, the CIP forecasts any operating costs associated with each project. Upon adoption of the CIP, funds are appropriated for the first year of the plan. The funds shown in years two through five of the plan are included for planning purposes and are reevaluated and appropriated with the adoption of each respective fiscal year’s budget. The County’s CIP is divided into three main project categories: General Government, Schools, and Utilities. The general government category includes functions like public safety, transportation, parks, and libraries. The Schools section highlights projects within the Chesterfield County Public School System, while the Utilities category provides details on capital investments to the County’s water and wastewater infrastructure. FY2021 – FY2025 Program Highlights • The FY2021-2025 CIP evolved from a $352.7 million five-year plan in mid-March to a $331.7 million plan at adoption due to the strategic measures taken to reduce spending County-wide as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic. The reductions occurred in year one of the plan as the County reduced pay-as-you- go funding and shifted programmed referendum funding to future years. • The CIP maintains a targeted focus on the care and maintenance of existing infrastructure and the communities they support.

Brendan Martin Dr. Carroll Van West To F. ii ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS I cannot begin to express my thanks to my dissertation committee chairperson, Dr. Kathryn Sikes. Without her encouragement and advice this project would not have been possible. I would like to express my deepest appreciation to my dissertation committee members Drs. Mary Hoffschwelle, Carroll Van West, and Brendan Martin. My very deepest gratitude extends to Dr. Martin and the Public History Program for graciously and generously funding my research site visits. I’m deeply indebted to the National Science Foundation project research team, Drs. Derek H. Alderman, Perry L. Carter, Stephen P. Hanna, David Butler, and Amy E. Potter. However, I owe special thanks to Dr. Butler who introduced me to the project data and offered ongoing mentorship through my research and writing process. I would also like to extend my deepest gratitude to Dr. Kimberly Douglass for her continued professional sponsorship and friendship. The completion of my dissertation would not have been possible without the loving support and nurturing of Frederick Kristopher Koehn, whose patience cannot be underestimated. I must also thank my MTSU colleagues Drs. Bob Beatty and Ginna Foster Cannon for their supportive insights. My friend Dr. Jody Hankins was also incredibly helpful and reassuring throughout the last five years, and I owe additional gratitude to the “Low Brow CrowD,” for stress relief and weekend distractions.

  • Chapter 2 Yeardley's Fort (44Pg65)
    CHAPTER 2 YEARDLEY'S FORT (44PG65) INTRODUCTION In this chapter the fort and administrative center of Flowerdew at 44PG65 are examined in relation to town and fortification planning and the cultural behavior so displayed (Barka 1975, Brain et al. 1976, Carson et al. 1981; Barka 1993; Hodges 1987, 1992a, 1992b, 1993; Deetz 1993). To develop this information, we present the historical data pertaining to town development and documented fortification initiatives as a key part of an overall descriptive grid to exploit the ambiguity of the site phenomena and the historic record. We are not just using historic documents to perform a validation of archaeological hypotheses; rather, we are trying to understand how small-scale variant planning models evolved regionally in a trajectory away from mainstream planning ideals (Beaudry 1988:1). This helps refine our perceptions of this site. The analysis then turns to close examination of design components at the archaeological site that might reveal evidence of competence or "mental template." These are then also factored into a more balanced and meaningful cultural interpretation of the site. 58 59 The site is used to develop baseline explanatory models that are considered in a broader, multi-site context in Chapter 3. Therefore, this section will detail more robust working interpretations that help lay the foundations for the direction of the entire study. In short, learning more about this site as a representative example of an Anglo-Dutch fort/English farmstead teaches us more about many sites struggling with the same practical constraints and planning ideals that Garvan (1951) and Reps (1972) defined.

  • Chapter 3 Management Prescriptions
    JEFFERSON NATIONAL FOREST CHAPTER 3 MANAGEMENT PRESCRIPTIONS INTRODUCTION INTRODUCTION The 1985 Land and Resource Management Plan for the Jefferson National Forest included specific direction on how to manage different land areas. These land areas were called management areas. This revised plan also contains management areas, but they are now related to ecological regions, watershed boundaries, and other biological, and social divisions of land found across the Jefferson National Forest. These new management areas are described in Chapter 4. Each management area has different attributes that require a slightly different management emphasis. These differences are reflected in the management prescriptions applied to each area. Management prescriptions related to one another are grouped in “categories,” numbered 0 through 12. The numbering system and emphasis of each management prescription is consistent across the national forests of the southern Appalachians. This Chapter only includes management prescriptions used in the Revised Forest Plan; therefore, there are gaps in the numbering sequence. A complete list of management prescriptions used throughout the southern Appalachians, along with their related emphasis, is available in Process Paper: Management Prescriptions of the Southern Appalachians. All management prescriptions provide multiple uses, even though their titles may imply a single use. Each management prescription includes: Title – tells the primary focus of management. Emphasis – briefly describes this primary focus of management for the prescription area in a little more detail. Desired Condition – shows opportunities and/or conditions available in the future for all the multiple uses and resources found throughout the prescription area. Standards – provides managers specific management direction as they work toward achieving the desired condition for each particular area.
