Chesterfield County Council on July 6 adopted an emergency ordinance placing a temporary moratorium on the issuance of permits for establishment of mobile‑home parks, RV parks and subdivisions. Vice‑Chairman Todd Smallwood moved to adopt the emergency ordinance; Councilman Johnnie McLendon seconded, and the motion passed with Smallwood and Council Members Dr. Lawrence Brand, Eddie Kirkley, Hattie Burns and Ethan Foard voting in favor. Councilman Brandon Price recused and did not participate.
Council recorded the motion as an emergency ordinance, meaning the measure took effect immediately upon adoption. The transcript notes the recusal by Councilman Price during both the Chapter 155 amendment discussion and the moratorium vote. The ordinance was adopted following unanimous support among participating members minus the recused member; further administrative steps or timelines for the moratorium were not specified in the minutes.
