What is the
Board of Supervisors?
The Board of Supervisors is the policy-making body for Henrico County. There are five members elected to four-year terms, one representing each of the County's five magisterial districts. While the day-to-day operations of the County are overseen by the County Manager and his staff, the Board of Supervisors has final approval authority over budget, planning, zoning, and land-use matters. Our current board has final approval of the Henrico 2045 Comprehensive Plan, which is currently in development.
Issues
Fully Funding Our Schools
Henrico County Public Schools serve more than 50,000 students, and the quality of that education depends on sustained, consistent investment from the county. Rogish believes that funding schools adequately is not a year-to-year negotiation but a baseline commitment, one that holds even when state support fluctuates. Keeping classrooms staffed, buildings maintained, and compensation competitive enough to retain good teachers are the conditions that makes everything else possible.
Maintaining Vibrant Parks & Green Spaces
Parks and green spaces are vital infrastructure, and they matter, which is why Rogish's priority is ensuring that every resident has access to well-maintained parks, recreational programs, and natural areas in Tuckahoe. That means protecting existing green space, investing in new parkland where gaps exist, and thinking carefully about how development affects the natural corridors that make this part of the county worth living in.
Retaining our top-tier work force
County government runs on the people who staff it, from teachers and school counselors to police officers, public works crews, and the many others whose work residents depend on daily without always seeing it. Rogish believes the county must invest in these employees by improving their working conditions and treating retention as a strategic priority rather than an afterthought. The same principle extends to the small businesses that form the backbone of local economic life.
Prioritizing public safety
As Henrico grows, the demands on public safety agencies grow with it. Rogish's approach is straightforward: equip first responders with what they need, listen to what they say they're missing, and make sure the county's investment in public safety keeps pace with the county's growth, which means staying engaged with the police, fire, and rescue departments as partners. Everyone deserves to feel safe in their neighborhood.
