Council approved termination of the county’s 1-call agreement. The council also approved an air-medical services memorandum of agreement (MOA) with AMR (air medical services) by voice vote.

A series of fire-department contracts were considered and largely approved: Brock Mill, High Point, Ruby Mount Coggan, Bay Springs and Sand Hill fire-department contracts were approved by voice vote. The Tills Mill fire-department contract was rejected in its current form after a motion to reject carried; council recorded one objection during the vote.

Rescue-squad contracts covering Jefferson, Sherrill, Chesterfield, Pageland, Patrick and MacBee were approved collectively; staff and council members described the rescue-squad approvals as having gone smoothly.

Council also approved, on first reading by title only, Project Gray Matter (an economic-development/location-expansion matter referred to during executive session) and may take final action after required procedures.

Council members thanked staff and committee members for their work negotiating the contracts; one member recorded appreciation for committee chairmanship and collective efforts to reach agreements.

All contract votes were taken by voice; individual roll-call tallies were not recorded in the public transcript for most items. The Tills Mill motion to reject passed with the majority and a single recorded objection.","mediaType","Video","parentTitle","August 13, 2025 County Council Meeting","oneSentenceSummary","Following an executive session, Chesterfield County Council approved a series of fire department and rescue squad contracts, accepted an air-medical services memorandum of agreement, terminated the county's 1-call agreement and rejected the Tills Mill fire department contract in its current form.","taxTitle","Chesterfield County, South Carolina","taxId",70179,"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},6589467,"Council awards detention-center health contract and industrial-park waterline, declares surplus property and appoints Kevin Davis",95,663000,758000,"/Search/View?dp=1&key=5574767-df38796d42b3930c1ebe59c03d346209&start=663&end=758","https://assets.pipeline.soar.com/5574767-df38796d42b3930c1ebe59c03d346209/thumbnail_663000.jpg","/articles/6589467/Chesterfield-County/South-Carolina/Council-awards-detention-center-health-contract-and-industrial-park-waterline-declares-surplus-property-and-appoints-Kevin-Davis","https://secure.pipeline.soar.com/6589467-419479992fd439fab52815c0cfef4ed0/orig.mp4?Expires=1771144551&Signature=NQxe0EMWEuZy2juM7oUltFMslIQs7uoT6KREzjmS6PPneZOjsvNDfPitYUQab4QJu0liKfN7p4zMETBZDElQ8ZDYTxP-FcmJ1g8fXFjpG4WNe2hbwwH8FvaQm3VB2cwxjVQaxCqz4ulNy5oYOJ3zyhq6rXZY7b-SkTYNUWDAOWb~pkyYsB31JM6FeRkFxQK3GUmv29pB0fRqLelvSdVrvd0LCRBUqE6ONFPixS4uRab~q1kzXlYYqRBi9hNkvi8R0E8ivfzIQkrtjrVFQlPy2LFJzu0tnEiJIUURsTG~L46dutQ0v9Rp3fEMBAANgygXMdgQA4TejbYxGj0vxTRnbw__&Key-Pair-Id=KUT5TJCACFTXG","Chesterfield County Council approved multiple staff recommendations at its August meeting, awarding a detention-center health services contract, approving a waterline construction bid for the county’s industrial park, declaring sheriff property surplus and confirming a planning-commission appointment.

Staff recommended and council approved a contract to Southern Health Partners (option 1) to provide health-care services at the county detention center in the amount of $227,920.

Council also awarded a bid for phase 3 of the waterline at Ranches River Industrial Park to Corbett and Son Construction LLC in the amount of $273,250. County staff said the project will be funded from remaining SC Locate grant dollars, remaining ARPA funds and so-called UTC 2024 monies; staff emphasized these funds will cover the cost and that the general fund will not be used.

Heather, a county staff member who presented the items, told council the sheriff’s office requested the declaration of certain equipment as surplus; staff reported that data-bearing devices had been wiped or would be destroyed before disposal. The council approved the surplus declaration.

On appointments, Councilmember Smallwood nominated Kevin Davis to the Chesterfield County Joint Planning Commission; the nomination was seconded and approved by voice vote.

During discussion of the detention-center contract council members noted the contract amount represents a modest increase from prior years; no substantive change in the scope of services was reported during the meeting.

All four staff items were approved by voice vote after motions and seconds recorded on the floor.","Chesterfield County Council awarded a $227,920 contract to Southern Health Partners for detention-center health services and approved a $273,250 waterline contract for Ranches River Industrial Park.

The extension, moved by Councilmember Price and seconded by Councilmember Kirkley, was approved by voice vote after a brief discussion; the council confirmed that developments with existing mobile-home permits are exempt from the moratorium.

Council members said the county is coordinating with regional planning partners on next steps. “I’ve had several meetings with them. I don’t have an update today,” said Mister Edmond, a county staff member. He told council he would provide a written update to staff so it could be circulated to members.

The moratorium was described as a temporary, administrative measure to pause new permit approvals while staff and regional partners review permitting standards and potential local actions. Council did not set a public deadline during the meeting for when the moratorium will end.

Council discussion also briefly touched on procedure: the chair acknowledged an earlier oversight in calling the vote and moved back to the item to record the extension formally.

The action does not change or revoke any permits already issued; council members repeated that those existing permits remain in effect.","At its August meeting, the Chesterfield County Council voted to extend an emergency ordinance temporarily halting issuance of permits for new mobile-home parks, RV parks and subdivisions. Existing permits remain exempt; staff said regional planning partners are still working through details.","actionData","errors"]
