Board approves series of resolutions, appointments and appropriations
Summary
The New Kent County Board of Supervisors approved several resolutions, budget appropriations and appointments during its April 14, 2025 meeting, including a request to name the New Kent post office for the late Patricia A. Page, an audiovisual system appropriation for the circuit court, and appointments to county committees.
The New Kent County Board of Supervisors voted on multiple items at its April 14 meeting, approving a set of resolutions, an appropriation for courtroom audio/video equipment and several board and commission appointments.
The board unanimously approved a resolution requesting that the United States Congress designate the New Kent post office at 12109 New Kent Highway as the “Patricia A. Page Post Office Building.” The motion was made by Supervisor Moyer and recorded as passed following a roll call in which Supervisor Pearson, Supervisor Sears, Supervisor Stewart, Supervisor Moyer and Supervisor Evans voted “Aye.”
The board also authorized the county administrator to execute an agreement with BIS Digital for purchase and installation of an audio and video recording system for the New Kent Circuit Court and appropriated up to $117,601 from the capital fund balance for the project. Supervisor Stewart moved the measure and the board recorded the measure as passed after a roll call in which Supervisor Stewart, Supervisor Moyer, Supervisor Pearson and Chairman Evelyn voted “Aye.”
Other actions taken included approval of the VDOT Secondary Six-Year Improvement Program allocation document and Resolution R-12-25 to designate a portion of Clark Road as rural rustic; that motion passed by roll call. The board adopted Resolution R-14-25 (a VDOT land-use permit resolution) to waive certain bonding requirements when the county performs work in VDOT right of way. The board amended the meeting calendar to reschedule a work session. The board also confirmed several appointments, including Nancy Nolan (Clean County Committee) and Rodney A. Hathaway (Capital Area Agency on Aging board representative).
Several consent-agenda items were approved at the start of the meeting; a single miscellaneous item was pulled for separate consideration before the remainder passed on a motion to approve the consent agenda with the pulled item excluded.
Votes recorded in the meeting minutes were taken by roll call and are reflected in the board transcript. Where roll-call names were recorded during the meeting, they are listed here as recorded; in other cases the clerk recorded unanimous approval by voice roll call.
The board did not take final action on the Dominion Energy easement request (for an electrical service line to a proposed cellular tower), indicating staff would return with additional information and, if required by changed advertising rules, an additional public hearing.
The board closed the meeting with standard announcements and scheduled the next regular meeting for May 6, 2025, and a work session for April 28, 2025.
