HIGHWAY MATTERS
Mr. Quintin Elliott, Resident Engineer, Virginia Department of
Transportation (VDOT), appeared to discuss highway matters of interest
to the Board of Supervisors. He also introduced Mr. John Barr,
Assistant Resident Engineer, to the Board.
Mr. Wiggins thanked VDOT for the repairs to Wolftrap Road and to
the railroad tracks. He acknowledged VDOT's dilemma of prioritizing its
work due to the lack of funding available from the State. He stated he
felt the state needed to do much more to fund the highways along with
drainage and secondary road considerations. He requested a meeting with
VDOT representatives to discuss drainage problems in the York Point
area.
Mr. Zaremba thanked VDOT for the recent paving in the Barlow Road
area. He asked what VDOT's estimation was of the 2006 and 2007
celebrations and the impact on York County. He mentioned the widening of
Interstate 64 and asked that VDOT keep the County informed of
implications as a result of the work in those areas.
Mr. John_Mazur, Assistant Resident Engineer, addressed the 2007
celebration, stating VDOT was waiting for a report from the 2007
Celebration Committee as to what the activities will consist of. As more
is learned about the traffic needs, VDOT will adjust to make road
improvements. There is a list of projects on the books in both James
City County and York County that will help facilitate the improvements.
Mrs. Noll thanked Mr. Elliott for approving the flags at the
intersections at Route 17 and Victory Boulevard. She mentioned a
landscaping plan that the County would present for the area along
Victory Boulevard that would link both ends of the Kiln Creek Parkway,
and she encouraged VDOT to approve the plan.
Mr. Shepperd commended a VDOT employee, Mr. Tim Morrison, of the
Seaford office and stated he had done a great job. He asked for Mr.
Mazur's recommendation on how citizens can learn about contacting VDOT
and giving citizen input when there is a specific road situation.
Mr. Mazur explained that new citizens who have just moved into the
County often do not know who to call. He explained VDOT attends various
meetings to try and get the word out, such as meetings of the
homeowner's associations.
Chairman Burgett noted the Board had received the paving
scheduled, which was prepared using route numbers, and he stated he was
able to identify the street names in his district.

Mr. Jim Orband, York County Extension Agent, gave a presentation

Chair of the York County Extension Leadership Council, and Prasanti
Ganni, who also serves on the Leadership Council. His presentation
identified the programs offered by the Extension Office which enhance
the quality of life in York County. He noted that the volunteer staff
included 344 citizens donating over 19,000 hours to the program. He
encouraged citizens to utilize the extension office's services by
attending classes or subscribing to Extension newsletters.
CITIZENS COMMENT PERIOD
Mr. Brad Berrane, President of the York County Business
Association (YCBA), stated the Association had appointed a committee to
study the possibility of putting flags up at some of the entrances to
the County. He requested the help of the Board to enlist staff's
assistance to provide the appropriate flags and a monument at the
entrance of the County on Route 17 to reflect the County's patriotism.
He stated the YCBA had asked its members, the Board of Supervisors, and
other civic organizations to support the YCBA's efforts.
COUNTY ATTORNEY REPORTS AND REQUESTS
Mr. Barnett indicated he had nothing to report at this time.
COUNTY ADMINISTRATOR REPORTS AND REQUESTS
Mr. McReynolds reviewed the Board's calendar through the end of
the year including the topics of discussion for the meetings and work
sessions. He mentioned the breakfast meeting scheduled on December 3 at
the Duke of York Restaurant with the State legislative delegation. He
noted the real estate assessment notices were mailed recently from the
County Assessor's Office. He explained that County staff is working with
Wal-Mart, at the corner of Route 17 and Route 171, to see if flagpoles
could be erected in that location; and, hopefully, the YCBA can be
involved in that effort.
MATTERS PRESENTED BY THE BOARD
Mrs. Noll reported that vehicle registrations in the Hampton Roads
area far exceed the per capital registrations in the State of Virginia
and in the United States. She stated this causes mass congestion, and
some people and businesses had more cars than needed. She thanked all
the citizens who worked the polls on election day, and she encouraged
others to volunteer working the polls. Mrs. Noll then noted to citizens
of Kentucky Farms that she is working with the Newport News School
Administration regarding problems with Newport News buses using that
area as a turn around.
Mr. Zaremba commented that the County was entering a budget cycle,
and the information from the State is that there appears to be a billion
dollar shortfall in the State coffers to meet the Fiscal Year 2003
requirements which means that localities will be asked to pick up where
the State has fallen short. He indicated the Board needed to be very
cautious before adding anything to the budget. He mentioned the Aviation
2003 World's Fair at the Newport News/Williamsburg Airport and his
concern about impacts from the September 11 events, the economic
downturn that the County has been in for the last twelve months, and the
devastation that has occurred throughout the airline industry as a
result of September 11. He asked Mr. McReynolds to keep the Board
informed as to the circumstances to the Aviation 2003 World's Fair. He
then welcomed Mr. Tom Shepperd to the Board of Supervisors.
Mr. Shepperd reported on activities of concern that took place at
polling places in the recent election. He stated that access to the
polls was blocked, a violation of both State and County codes. He stated
citizens have a right to vote and to have access to the polls. He noted
that many people were bothered that they were having trouble getting
into the polls. He reminded those working the polls of the 40-foot rule,
which was repeatedly violated.
Meeting Recessed. At 7:55 p.m. Chairman Burgett declared a short
recess.
Meeting Reconvened. At 8:01 p.m. the meeting was reconvened
in open session by order of the Chair.

REDISTRICTING-2001
Mr. J. Mark Carter, Planning and Zoning Manager, made a
presentation on proposed Ordinance No. 01-21 to amend the York County
Code to modify certain boundary lines between election districts, to
modify certain precinct boundary lines, and to establish certain new
polling places which are a result of the reapportionment of election
districts subsequent to completion of the decennial U. S. Census. He
explained there are two changes that need to be made in the ordinance:
one to reflect a change in the State Code in that the Registrar is
required to make notifications rather than the Secretary of the
Electoral Board; and the second to eliminate the last sentence with the
blank in it so that the effective date would be when the Board adopts
the Ordinance. He stated Staff recommended adoption of proposed
Ordinance No. 01-21(R).
Chairman Burgett then called to order a public hearing on proposed
Ordinance No. 01-21(R) which was duly advertised as required by law and
is entitled:
AN ORDINANCE TO AMEND CHAPTER 9, ELECTIONS, YORK COUNTY CODE, TO
MODIFY CERTAIN BOUNDARY LINES BETWEEN ELECTION DISTRICTS, TO MODIFY

populations and "to give, as nearly as practicable, representation
in proportion to the population of the district…," as required by
the Constitution of Virginia (1971) and the Code of Virginia (1950), as
amended, it is necessary to make certain adjustments in the existing
election district boundary lines; and

APPLICATION NO. UP-582-01, KENNETH DALE MOORE.
Mr. Carter made a video presentation on proposed
Application No. UP-582-01 to consider adoption of proposed Resolution
R01-189 to approve a special use permit for the construction of a 199-foot
monopole communications tower located at 220 Redoubt Road. He stated that
the Planning Commission considered the application and forwarded it to the
Board of Supervisors with a recommendation of approval, and staff
recommended approval of the application through the adoption of proposed
Resolution R01-189.
Mr. Zaremba asked about the purpose of the tower that
is currently on that location.
Mr. Carter pointed out that the current tower was used
for cellular communications and that the demand from new providers has
reached the point that there is sufficient demand to erect a new tower.
The current tower is at its maximum capacity and cannot accommodate any
additional users.
Chairman Burgett called to order a public hearing on
Application No. UP-582-01 which was duly advertised as required by law.
Proposed Resolution R01-189 is entitled:
A RESOLUTION TO APPROVE A SPECIAL USE PERMIT TO

APPLICATION NO. UP-583-01, IYOBOSA ASSOCIATES, INC.
Mr. Carter made a video presentation on proposed
Resolution R01-190 to approve a special use permit for the operation of a
parking facility in connection with a limousine service as a home
occupation at 100 Douglas Drive. He explained that after consideration,
the staff and the Planning Commission both recommended denial of the
application.
Mr. Zaremba noted from the video that the limousines
were not visible, and he asked where they were now stored.
Mr. Carter stated he did not know the whereabouts of
the limousines since court action was taken to have them removed.
Mr. Shepperd asked about the renewal of the permit in
two years.
Mr. Carter stated there was a limitation on the
non-resident, employee aspect of two years and that was the maximum
prescribed by the ordinance. The other aspect that the applicant is
requesting, operating the limousines without non-resident employees, can
be unlimited in terms of time unless the Board chooses to put a time limit
on it.
Discussion followed
Mr. Shepperd stated he felt it was important that a
petition signed by approximately 120 neighboring residents had been
submitted in support of the applicant.
Mr. Carter stated that staff's conclusion was that the
request was inconsistent with the residential character of the
neighborhood.
Chairman Burgett asked if the applicant, by right, was
allowed to have two limousines at his house at any time.
Mr. Carter explained that the applicant wanted four
limousines, and he wanted the ability to have non-resident employees
involved in driving those limousines. He explained that having two as part
of the home occupation is not without restriction, and he explained some
of the limitations.
Mr. Joseph Osamwonyi, the applicant, expressed his
desire to obtain a Special Use Permit and re-establish his home-based
limousine business. He voiced his concerns and stated his reasons why he
should be allowed to operate his business as he did from 1996 to 2001. He
stated he felt he had been greatly harmed by the actions of York County
officials, and he encouraged the Board to support his application.
Chairman Burgett called to order a public hearing on
Application No. UP-583-01 which was duly advertised as required by law.
Proposed Resolution R01-190 is entitled:
A RESOLUTION TO APPROVE A SPECIAL USE PERMIT TO
AUTHORIZE
THE OPERATION OF A LIMOUSINE SERVICE AS A HOME OCCUPATION AT 100 DOUGLAS
DRIVE
Ms. Princess Chapman Patterson, 1227 Penniman Road,
stated she felt that Mr. Osamwonyi was entitled to have a business like
any other American. She expressed her displeasure with some of the
unsightly surroundings in the Carver Gardens area such as
tractor-trailers, a water storage facility, and a warehouse.
Ms. Eleanor Osamwonyi, 100 Douglas Drive, stated the
situation with the business had been a nightmare. She explained she and
her husband were trying to make a living and felt they should not be
denied that opportunity. She cited examples of traffic and noise in the
area given the County's concern that the applicant's business generated
too much noise and traffic. She felt like they could not get any justice
before the Board.
Miss A. Osamwonyi, 100 Douglas Drive, nine year old
daughter of the applicant, stated her parents had taught her to work hard
and obey the laws. Her father told her that when she grew up she could
operate the limousine business. She stated her father was very stressed at
what York County has done to him for almost two years now. She asked why
the County had driven her father out of business
Mr. Alexis Vaughan, Smithfield, Virginia, appeared in
support of the applicant. He stated he was a very hard working man who
believed in the American dream who put his heart and soul into the
limousine business. He felt the applicant's business was an enhancement to
Williams-burg. He felt what the County was doing to the applicant was a
travesty.
Mr. Larry Parker, Hampton, Virginia, stated he has
known the applicant for many years, and he was a hard working individual
who never broke laws or would do anything to cause a problem in the area.
He highly supported what Mr. Osamwonyi was trying to do, and he encouraged
the Board to also support him.
Mr. Randall Martin, Williamsburg, spoke in support of
the applicant, asking the Board to consider Mr. Osamwonyi's application.
Mr. Ron Jackson, 111 Jackson Street, James City County,
stated his office was adjacent to the applicant's business, and that the
parking spaces in the lot are too small to accommodate the limousines. He
expressed his support of the limousine business, and he strongly urged the
Board to give the applicant an opportunity to re-establish the business.
There being no one else present who wished to speak
concerning the subject application, Chairman Burgett closed the public
hearing.
Mrs. Noll stated she had been acquainted with the
applicant for a while, and she appreciated his effort to teach his
daughter to obey the law. She explained that government was about the law
so that all citizens have equal representation, equal opportunity, and
equal protection under the law. She suggested that the applicant could
re-establish his business with two limousines; and as his business grows,
he could then move to another area. Mrs. Noll stated she didn't feel that
Carver Gardens should have a large, commercial enterprise at the
entranceway to the development.
Mr. Shepperd stated he had told the applicant when he
was on the Planning Commission that he was not comfortable with the
proposal itself, and he felt uncomfortable with the idea of a lot of cars
on a small piece of property in a residential area. He noted the petition
indicated the residents encouraged the applicant to conduct his business,
and it carried a lot of meaning for him. Mr. Shepperd stated he felt the
applicant should be allowed to conduct his business.
Mr. Zaremba stated the Board has an obligation to abide
by the law, regardless of whether it is a federal, state or County
ordinance. He stated in 1996 an agreement was signed between the applicant
and the County which allowed the applicant to conduct his business out of
his home, and he agreed to abide by certain requirements and limitations.
Mr. Zaremba reiterated that the applicant had six years to recognize that
his business was growing, and he should have tried to negotiate a change.
He explained that Carver Gardens was zoned residential and not zoned for
commercial uses. He stated his vote would be no on the application.
Mr. Wiggins stated he felt the proposal was not a good
arrangement for the neighborhood and that the applicant should make other
arrangements to park the vehicles in another spot. He stated he was
opposed to the application.
Chairman Burgett stated there wasn't a single
neighborhood in the County where four limousines were allowed. He
explained Carver Gardens was zoned residential, and that wouldn't change.
Chairman Burgett stated he didn't feel like the applicant was being denied
any due process.
Mrs. Noll then moved to deny the application:
On roll call the vote was:
Yea: (4) Zaremba, Noll, Wiggins, Burgett
Nay: (1) Shepperd
APPLICATION NO. UP-584-01, ROBERT AND SHERI MANN
Mr. Carter made a video presentation on Application No.
UP-584-01 to authorize the expansion of an existing accessory structure in
conjunction with a single-family dwelling, for the purpose of operating a
bed and breakfast establishment. He stated the Planning Commission
considered the application and forwarded it to the Board of Supervisors
with a recommendation of approval, and staff recommended approval of the
application through the adoption of proposed Resolution R01-191.
Mr. Zaremba asked how the County could ensure that the
applicant's use of the property would be consistent with the intended use.
Mr. Carter explained the Zoning and Code Enforcement
staff routinely visited properties that have use permits. He stated it
would be difficult from the outward appearance to determine if the
property was in compliance with the special use permit, but the County
also depends on neighborhood input to enforce the code.
Ms. Sheri Mann, the applicant, appeared to answer any
questions the Board might have. She explained there is ample parking for
no more than two visitors at one time.
Chairman Burgett then called to order a public hearing
on Application No. UP-584-01 which was duly advertised as required by law.
Proposed Resolution R01-191 is entitled:
A RESOLUTION TO APPROVE A SPECIAL USE PERMIT TO
AUTHORIZE
A BED AND BREAKFAST INN AT 121 LAFAYETTE ROAD
Mr. Robert Mann, 121 Lafayette Road, stated that Greg
Brezinski had designed the plans for the bed and breakfast which included
the Dutch/Colonial style of the building. He explained the building
materials would be the same as on their residence.
Ms. April Cornick, 125 Lafayette Road, appeared in
support of the applicant and welcomed the bed and breakfast to the
neighborhood. She felt the attraction would invite visitors to the
Yorktown area.
Mr. Jim Orband, 102 Cornwallis Road, spoke in
opposition to the applicant's request. He stated he felt the bed and
breakfast would have a negative impact on the neighborhood, and it would
be the introduction of a business into a residential neighborhood. He
stated he had restored his 1927 home and was concerned that the bed and
breakfast will devalue his home. He cited problems with a bed and
breakfast in a residential area.
Mr. Gary Freeman, 120 Ballard Street, spoke in favor of
the applicant , stating it was consistent with the plans for the historic
area. He stated he felt it would be an enhancement to the community.
Mr. Wendell Ayers, 122 Lafayette Road, spoke neither in
favor of nor against the proposal, but stated being directly across the
street from the applicant he could not see where there would be a
significant impact on his property or to the traffic on the street.
There being no one else present who wished to speak
concerning the subject application, Chairman Burgett closed the public
hearing.
Mr. Wiggins stated he had a letter from a citizen who
had spoken at the Planning Commission which stated he was very opposed to
the application. He stated the neighborhood was not a part of the
historical district and not a part of the historical plan. He stated he
was totally opposed to it.
Mr. Zaremba stated he was concerned about the
precedent-setting nature of the proposal, and he stated he intended to
vote no on the application.
Mrs. Noll reminded the Board they had discussed the
idea of allowing people to have a mixed neighborhood with small
businesses. She explained this particular type of business would not be
obtrusive to the neighborhood. She further explained this was what they
had envisioned for the historic village of Yorktown.
Mr. Shepperd stated that the concern of the Planning
Commission was that if the bed and breakfast wasn't approved it would not
go to an accessory apartment. The Planning Commission was concerned with
the impact, although very little negative impact. Mr. Shepperd stated he
did not see any problem with the application.
Chairman Burgett compared the definition of hotel with
that of a bed and breakfast in a neighborhood, stating the intensity of
use in this neighborhood would be increased. He stated he agreed with Mr.
Wiggins that the citizens of the neighborhood should not have to be
subjected to a bed and breakfast.
Mr. Shepperd then moved the adoption of proposed
Resolution R01-191 which reads:
A RESOLUTION TO APPROVE A SPECIAL USE PERMIT TO
AUTHORIZE
A BED AND BREAKFAST INN AT 121 LAFAYETTE ROAD

MATTERS PRESENTED BY THE BOARD (continued)
Mr. Wiggins addressed concerns over drainage matters
and the severity of drainage in the Edgehill and Burnt Bridge
communities. He gave some background on the Edgehill subdivision and its
development, to include some reasons why drainage problems exist in that
area. He discussed the proposed plan to develop the adjacent King
property. He asked that the Board members do what was necessary to see
that no further drainage problems were created in these areas. He then
listed his drainage recommendations and requested no further drainage
problems be imposed on the citizens through further development until the
drainage construction plan was put into place.
Chairman Burgett stated he had attended the tenth
anniversary of the Senior Center and noted that the center had come a long
way from its original location. He also attended the Change of Command
Ceremony at Langley Air Force Base. He discussed some of the activities at
the employee picnic on November 3 at Yorktown Elementary School. He
reported on the Annual Report that was mailed out, and he commended Gail
Whittaker for her work on the report. Chairman Burgett explained that
Youth Week was coming up December 3-9 which would focus on the high school
students, and he explained some of the events scheduled. He also noted he
would be attending the high schools and speaking with students on
government matters. Chairman Burgett then wished everyone Happy
Thanksgiving.
