As a Bon Air resident, my comment is on proposed CD 6. In terms of grouping communities of interest generally, the grouping of Henrico, Richmond, and Chesterfield is entirely appropriate. Having said that, I disagree with the portions of Chesterfield included in the proposed district. To properly align communities of interest, all of North Chesterfield to the Powhatan line (including Midlothian) should be included, as residents in that area regularly commute to Henrico's west end and to the City of Richmond for jobs, healthcare, leisure, etc. In contrast, the more Southern parts of Chesterfield near Dinwiddie, Petersburg, and Hopewell should be excluded from any Congressional District focused on the urban and suburban concerns of Metro Richmond residents. The dividing line should should focus on the Chippenham Parkway, Route 288 and Hull Street in terms of drawing the southern border for the district.

In response to Tyler, the purpose of that was put the minority-majority precincts of Rohoic, Chesdin, and Edgehill into District 6 instead of the 70% White District 9.
