Interim County Administrator Manny Alvarez presented three related consent items, saying the first two relate to school budget adjustments made after the county approved its budget because the Commonwealth or school figures changed. Alvarez described the items as: an amendment appropriating $535,000 to the school operating fund and $11,000 to the cafeteria fund; a second amendment appropriating $342,000 to the school operating fund, $1,000 to the textbook fund and $1,700 to the cafeteria fund; and a third resolution requesting VDOT accept Player Estates subdivision streets into the secondary system (this last item had been pulled earlier in the meeting at VDOT’s request and was not acted on).

Supervisor Lyle noted the board had previously allocated additional support to schools and said the county would not seek to recoup state sales‑tax funding that also became available. “We’re continuing to step up and commit,” Lyle said, praising school staff and graduates. The board approved the consent agenda as presented by voice vote; no roll call was recorded for the consent vote in the transcript.

The approvals authorize the listed appropriations and intra‑fund transfers identified in the resolutions. The county’s finance staff (Carla Cave was present as the county finance partner) are available for specific line‑item questions. The board moved on to appointments and then recessed for a dinner break; the public hearing session reconvened at 6 p.m.","mediaType","Video","parentTitle","Board of Supervisors Regular Meeting 6/3/2025","oneSentenceSummary","Goochland supervisors approved consent‑agenda resolutions amending fiscal years to appropriate additional funds to the school operating, textbook and cafeteria accounts, and authorized related transfers in the county general fund.","taxTitle","Goochland County, Virginia","taxId",30989,"location","headline","","shortSummary",{"_33":76,"_35":36,"_37":38,"_39":77,"_41":78,"_43":79,"_45":80,"_47":81,"_49":82,"_51":83,"_53":84,"_55":56,"_57":58,"_59":85,"_61":62,"_63":64,"_65":86,"_67":68,"_69":70,"_71":68,"_72":73,"_74":73},6215259,"Residents press Goochland supervisors for clearer staff reports, safer roads and developer accountability in District 4",943,727000,1670000,"/Search/View?dp=1&key=3662308-7faa3ff0d1e27cb0e5958d8eb495d3d4&start=727&end=1670","https://assets.pipeline.soar.com/3662308-7faa3ff0d1e27cb0e5958d8eb495d3d4/thumbnail_727000.jpg","/articles/6215259/Goochland-County/Virginia/Residents-press-Goochland-supervisors-for-clearer-staff-reports-safer-roads-and-developer-accountability-in-District-4","https://secure.pipeline.soar.com/6215259-21d82ef72fe05db27bfe63c9f13d78f7/orig.mp4?Expires=1771152464&Signature=UCDyFYA9SUF0wbz6Lg3175xxy18SuAwUWnAzslpm0z8WnAiy3l5jdXUVy2bIsqQkmMQ2VSkipc6HXjdIvyKBHm8oLTeFbAY09QdIU1I4naT~OCBXnPpUlve72orvNkGeV43rh7isa9WXU3W9W-HANPPPZnC~dSjNzxmpPnIEdTnxpORPszscptLphaK70PG-O~IZR8RRX8oK1-6WcsXhxirNHiJl6VFxldKqHy7dLWommeCFg9P3yneGj-TG1dWYNTUqtoM5r5usNamktc7K7GTqeTh1tXJ13VQUaOSAPMT5IUzu3Kgyt-REtF5vBoxFHfS-4gW9jHqpWuIZw-QR5g__&Key-Pair-Id=KUT5TJCACFTXG","Several Goochland County residents urged the Board of Supervisors on June 3 to improve transparency of staff reports, address traffic safety on Mannequin Road and hold developers accountable for alleged construction defects.

Linda Moore, a Rockville resident, told the board she and neighbors have experienced delays and missing information when requesting staff reports and packet materials. “This lack of transparency for us to get this information has caused a lot of stress on neighbors,” Moore said, and she told the board the Planning Commission had recently voted down a related application “5‑0.” Moore said residents had submitted roughly 87 letters on the Highfield matter and expected more prior to a July hearing date.

Patricia Alves, who lives on Hanover Road near Rockville and Mannequin Road, told the board she is concerned about heavy truck traffic and emergency‑vehicle access. Alves listed growing truck volumes connected to nearby residential and commercial development and said “they need to be widened” and that the county should plan for more fire stations and schools if growth continues. Alves attributed those remarks to conditions she said exist in Districts 4 and 5; the board did not record a formal plan in response.

Andrew Wingert, an HOA member in the Tuckahoe Bridge Section 2 (Mosaic Creek Boulevard) development, asked the county to hold the developer accountable for unfinished or defective work while the HOA remains developer‑controlled. Wingert said a walkway/bridge installed about a year ago had settled “over an inch and a half,” creating a trip hazard, and that repeated emails to the HOA and management company produced slow follow up. He said county staffer Ray Cash had been responsive to his inquiries.

Board members did not take formal action on the citizen comments during the meeting; supervisors and staff acknowledged the concerns and noted they could be pursued through staff follow up or be raised at future hearings. Linda Moore returned in the evening session to reiterate her request for clearer project information ahead of the Highfield public hearing.

The comments highlight resident frustration with document access, local traffic planning and the difficulty of addressing construction defects when an HOA remains under developer control. The board’s next business meeting is scheduled for July 1, 2025.","Multiple District 4 residents raised concerns during citizen comment about difficulty obtaining complete staff reports, increasing traffic and safety on Mannequin Road, and unaddressed developer workmanship in Wind‑swept/Mosaic area; no formal board action was taken at the meeting.",{"_33":88,"_35":36,"_37":38,"_39":89,"_41":90,"_43":91,"_45":92,"_47":93,"_49":94,"_51":95,"_53":96,"_55":56,"_57":58,"_59":97,"_61":62,"_63":64,"_65":98,"_67":68,"_69":70,"_71":68,"_72":73,"_74":73},6215264,"Goochland supervisors ask VDOT to bar through-truck traffic on Parkside Village streets",105,910000,1015000,"/Search/View?dp=1&key=3662308-7faa3ff0d1e27cb0e5958d8eb495d3d4&start=910&end=1015","https://assets.pipeline.soar.com/3662308-7faa3ff0d1e27cb0e5958d8eb495d3d4/thumbnail_910000.jpg","/articles/6215264/Goochland-County/Virginia/Goochland-supervisors-ask-VDOT-to-bar-through-truck-traffic-on-Parkside-Village-streets","https://secure.pipeline.soar.com/6215264-b2f19cb9d35d8adb0814a543cb8865e0/orig.mp4?Expires=1771152464&Signature=FhkJrmuuPQEjcOskv2VAhoG7tyWt-CqV0C12ectJN6SATBMDq39gCBsISrhAaLfwoxu-tylvXGSoD1NmUlt77hrbffzJwph7IE6iUxWKmVdeOSZ3y9tCLmZLQ9UEwLRHZwR63MlSy1YOF~-JzGua6icKs1c5JY6PeuEe0dWE3qQkrBhaKWiMZdF9nLoo2UTmpovYCewlp7Ax92gzOdXbOZ9sAPenaTlNizU6Hbr5mMtaiguYF--1jxmzmKri~~iiTt92oxl7A6EUYYrPh6GZYs5NvrEAxeQ7l02cay1fOvf6syAxsiqU7GSE~OPqc2Or0nAFMNZYswDnTAw-D32OFA__&Key-Pair-Id=KUT5TJCACFTXG","The Goochland County Board of Supervisors on June 3 voted to ask the Virginia Commonwealth Transportation Board to prohibit through‑truck traffic on several local streets in the Parkside Village subdivision, citing resident complaints about tractor‑trailers using the neighborhood as a cut through.

Deputy County Administrator Josh Gillespie presented the request at the board’s public hearing, saying the affected streets total “about 0.71 hundredths of a mile, so less than 1 mile of total streets,” and that VDOT regulations require a local hearing before signs can be posted. Gillespie told the board staff concluded the four statutory criteria for restricting through‑truck traffic are met: there is a reasonable alternate route, the character and frequency of truck traffic is incompatible with the residential area, the streets are local in function, and the requested signs would be enforceable under state law.

Residents told the board they were seeing more large trucks in the neighborhood as regional development ramps up. Steve Levitt, a Parkside resident who spoke during the public hearing after Margaret Levitt ceded her time, said traffic from Amazon’s Project RIC‑6 and other nearby projects will increase truck and commuter traffic on Ashland Road and lead drivers to seek shortcuts through Parkside. “We’re already seeing increased cut through traffic,” Levitt said, and he asked the supervisors to “place three no through truck signs at the specified entrances to Parkside Village.”

Board discussion noted that the state statute applies only to trucks; signage cannot lawfully prohibit general passenger vehicle cut‑throughs. Gillespie explained that “if a plumber or other service vehicle is driving through the neighborhood to reach a destination there, that is not a through truck under the state definition.” He said the posted restriction creates an enforceable limit similar to a posted speed limit, and that enforcement could be supported by the state police if needed.

Supervisor roll call showed unanimous support for the resolution. The board’s recorded roll call listed Supervisors Spurnauer, Lyle, Christie, Waters and Wimprey as voting yes; the motion passed.

The resolution asks VDOT — through the Virginia Commonwealth Transportation Board — to place “no through truck” signage at the Parkside Village entrances identified in the board packet. The request now moves to the VCTB and VDOT for further review and potential sign installation and enforcement.

Residents and staff acknowledged that signage addresses only through truck traffic; other traffic‑calming measures would be required to address passenger‑vehicle cut‑throughs.

The board adjourned the hearing and set its next meeting for July 1, 2025.","The Board of Supervisors voted to request that the Virginia Commonwealth Transportation Board restrict through‑truck traffic on several local streets in the Parkside Village subdivision after residents and staff described increasing cut‑through tractor‑trailer traffic tied to nearby development.","actionData","errors"]
