Description
No description was provided for this meeting.
If this is YOUR meeting, an easy way to fix this is to add a description to your video, wherever mtngs.io found it (probably YouTube).
A
It
was
going
to
go
to
appeal
meeting.
It
is
well
I'm
going
to
call
this
meeting
to
all
this
time
now
this
507..
This
is
our
customer
that
we
begin
by
reciting
the
pledge
of
allegiance.
If
I
could
actually
got
sustained.
A
Item
number
three
notifications.
A
I
guess
I
want
to
make
the
motion
to
adopt.
I
believe
that.
C
We
adopt
the
minutes
in
the
april
last
week
april,
28th.
A
D
D
I
sent
you
pictures
of
the
the
proposed
garage
area,
the
three
foot:
seven
foot,
intense
foot,
setbacks
from
both
angles;
kind
of
show
you
that
if
I
move
it
over
to
the
10
foot
area
set
back
in
the
subway
area
set
back,
it
is
behind
the
house.
D
E
D
If
I
move
it
back,
I
would
have
to
take
out
vegetation
of
the
couple
palms
and
some
other
other
vegetation,
also
there's
a
about
18
20
years
ago.
I
cabled
up
that
tree.
It
wasn't
my
tree,
but
I
cabled
it
to
fully
try
to
save
it,
so
putting
the
garage
underneath
that,
underneath
that
big
limb
that's
been
cabled
and.
A
A
So
I'm
looking
at
you,
here's
one
of
the
other
things
that
request.
I
didn't
see
that
I
think
we
requested
a
tree
toppo
as
well.
D
D
D
And
work
for
my
neighbors
and
work
for
the
hoa.
That's
the
only
thing
I
did
thirst.
I
move
that
around
wherever
I
need
to
move
around.
You
know
I've
been.
I
first
submitted
this
to
the
hoa
back
on
may
25th
of
last
year,
so
I
am
going
to
work,
I'm
just
trying
to
figure
out
if
it's
just
going
to
work,
and
hopefully
it
will
so.
G
The
waiver
of
this
encroachment
and
the
setback
for
this
lot
with
respect
to
that,
and
so
it's
in
record
that
it's
waiting
right
now.
C
G
Well,
I
wouldn't
be
making
any
kind
of
legal
opinion
on
what
the
hoa
were
doing.
What
I
think
is
that,
on
the
surface,
with
respect
to
the
zoning
decision,
the
hra
can
approve
the
fear
for
the
arc
can
improve
the
variance
up
to
25
percent
answers
that
right
here,
this
letter
saying
is
further
than
that,
and
so
we
would
just
reapprove
this
variance.
It's
on
the
surface.
You
know
further
than
what's
allowable
in
the
covenant,
so
I
think
it's
a
proper
change.
G
It
would
be
most
proper
for
the
hoa
to
have
some
is
a
wafer
in
the
record
so
that
that's
there
prior
to
granting
the
period.
G
B
B
Could
we,
as.
F
C
C
H
I
think
the
reason
for
not
proving
the
variance
was
not
couldn't
prove
a
hardship.
It
is
indeed
a
hardship.
If
I
can't
build
a
garage,
I
have
to
move.
In
addition,
it's
will
it
approach
my
drain
field.
If
the
garage
has
moved
towards
the
house.
A
H
It's
the
requirements
are
smaller
than
the
footprint
of
the
house,
and
so
the
carport
section
of
the
garage
has
been
deleted.
Total
square
foot-
don't
have
it
with
me
now,
but
it's
smaller
than
it
meets
regulations.
H
As
I
recall,
it's
798
square
feet.
Excuse
me.
H
I
E
A
H
A
Yeah,
we
don't
know
the
circumstances
around
why
that
is
what
it
is.
I
mean
I
don't
have
any
information
on
that
on
that
problem,
but
properly
that's
the
question
here:
yeah,
I'm
just
looking
at
the
size
of
the
property,
and
maybe
we
could
find
somewhere
else
where
this
garage,
I'm
not.
H
A
C
Okay,
one
question
that
there
will
be
more
questions
we're
going
to
hear
from
the
county
now.
J
J
And
my
report
staff
recommends
disapproval.
J
B
A
A
Obviously
the
county
can
give
you
20,
which
is
that
what
you
just
said,
which
would
I
guess
somewhere
40
feet,
so
that
would
give
you
some
relief.
A
Have
a
survey
show
us
where
that
dream
field
is
at,
so
that
we
can
have
something
to
look
at
because
right
now
we
just
have
dream
fields,
we
don't
have
any
dimensions
or
anything
so
right.
That
would
be
helpful.
Information.
H
A
A
B
We
continue
this
until
the
next
meeting
assessment.
A
So
the
pro
the
motion
has
been
probably
made
in
second
to
continue
this
until
you
gather
those
up
that
those
requested
information
all
in
favor
of
continuing
this
next
scheduled
meeting
signify
raising.
So
it's
been
passed.
So
if
you
can
get
that
information,
send
it
to
the
county
that
way,
you
know
they
can
send
it
to
us.
We
can
have
that
before
the
meeting,
and
now
we
can
move
forward
from
there
all
right.
Thank
you,
sir.
A
Any
public
comment
for
item
number
eight.
So
we
close
public
comments.
K
I
bought
rocket
number
two
blast
wood
about
a
year
ago
and,
as
you
can
see,
I'm
getting
older
with
the
purpose
of
moving
there
and
being
close
to
my
family,
which
lives
on
trip,
I'm
paying
for
the
education
of
two
grandkids,
one
which
has
just
graduated
with
an
engineering
degree
from
virginia
tech
and
has
plans
to
do
graduate
work
and
another
one
which
is
at
usc
and
has
two
years
of
will
be
a
junior.
This
fall
and
I
had
the
idea
if
I
could
use
it
as
short-term
rentals.
K
K
So
the
staff
suggested
that
we
do
an
ordinance
text
change
which
we
proceeded
to
do
and
then
followed
the
protocols
through
and
added
the
short-term
rentals
under
the
special
use
permit,
as
the
others
are
permitted
and
we've
gotten
those
approvals.
And
now
we've
come
to
the
point
where
it
has
I've
made
the
application
and
the
board
would
consider
and
either
approve
or
dispute
the
short-term
rental
use
of
the
property.
C
K
A
K
Yes,
sir,
got
lots
of
space,
it's
a
large
lot
and
it's
very
private
lot
in
that
it's
got
a
solid
wood
fence
across
the
front
and
down
one
side
and
vegetation
on
the
other
two
sides
and
I've
consulted
with
my
immediate
adjourning,
neighbors
and
they're
comfortable
they're,
good
neighbors,
and
I
look
forward
to
being
their
neighbor
permanently
within
a
couple
years.
K
A
You
do
anyone
else,
have
any
questions
for
the
applicant
all
right.
Thank
you,
sir.
I
guess
there's
really
no
need
to
hear
from
the
county.
I
mean
they
have
a
pool
of
approving
it.
I
mean
their
recommendation
is
to
prove
it
so.
A
Yeah.
Thank
you,
sir.
Thank
you.
So
at
this
point
we
open
up
a
public
comment
for
item
number.
10.,
no
public
comment.
We
close
public
comment
just
with
the
information
that's
been
presented
before
us
board
members.
Someone
like
to
put
a
motion
on
the
floor.
I.
A
A
It's
a
short
term.
Mr
item
number
12,
mr
wayne,
willenberg.
L
Okay,
good
evening,
good
evening
for
the
opportunity
to
speak
with
you,
this
is
a
request
for
a
special
variant
so
that
we
can
have
a
short
term
rental
in
the
two
we
have
a
two-story
garage,
separate
from
our
main
house
and
above
the
two-story
above.
The
two-car
garage
is
a
an
apartment
which
we
wish
to
rent
out
on
a
short-term
rental
basis,
and
we
would
use
that
income
to
supplement
our
retirement
income.
L
There
any
questions
I
plan
to
answer.
I
try
to
comply
with
all
the
requirements
that
the
county
has
set
and
submitted
all
the
the
information
and
your
your
staff,
I
understand,
has
approved
it,
but
if
there's
anything
in
addition,
I'll
be
glad
to.
A
There's
nothing
in
your
covenant
that
states
that
you
cannot
have
a
especially
I
mean
a
short-term
rental
in
your
area.
You
do
have
covenants
and.
G
G
Yeah,
it
needs
to
be
contingent
with
respect
to
the
contingencies
that
they
put
within
it.
J
F
G
They're
asking
for
us
to
he
needs
us
to
prove
the
use
county
wide.
You
know
further
than
that.
The
hoa
would
have
you
know
its
own
ability
to
enforce
its
covenants.
Okay,
with
respect
to
that
they're
allowing
to
use.
A
A
You
see
anyone
else
have
any
questions
for
mr
willemberg.
G
A
M
M
M
I
don't
think
that
anybody
of
the
any
of
those
88
people
or
87
people
would
be
very
happy
if
they
woke
up
one
morning
and
there
was
a
business
next
door
to
them
any
more
than
you
would
be
if
you
woke
up
one
morning
and
you
had
a
business
in
the
house
next
door
to
you
anyway.
That's
why
I
oppose
this,
and
I
ask
that
you
do
not
permit
it.
Thank
you.
A
G
Because
I
don't
know
what
the
companies
say
yeah
as
to
this
and
whether
what
the
authority
the
board
reports
to
have,
but
it
could
certainly
put
it
in
the
form
of
a
resolution
or
some
you
know
corporate
you
know
approving
whatever
power
it
thinks
it
has
to
with
respect
to
the
short
term,
because
we
have,
I
had
some
covenants
to
know.
If
there's
prohibition
on
it
or
not,.
A
So
we
need
a
copy
of
the
covenant
and-
and
I
guess
that'll
kind
of
spell
out
everything
that
we
need
for
a
lot
of
what
we
would
need
to
know
or.
F
A
That
would
be
some
helpful
information
for
us
being
that
it's
state
stated
that
you
know
there
shouldn't
be
there's
no,
no
business
is
allowed,
and
I
understand
that
we
have
this
letter,
but
if
we
had
that
a
copy
of
that
covenant,
that
would
be
a
lot
of
valuable
information
for
us.
Okay,
because
you
know
the
board
really
don't
want
to
make
a
decision
on
this
tonight
based
on.
G
A
Right
hold
on
before
we
move
forward.
Let
me
hear
from
the
county
we
didn't.
I
didn't
know
there
were
governments,
we
signed
that
there
were
none
and
I
didn't
go
looking.
F
J
A
Okay,
so
by
next
month
we
should
have
we
should
okay,
so
we
still
need
to
just
go
ahead
and
have
a
continuance
until
such
time,
because
she's
gonna,
I
guess
you
can
submit
the
covenant
to
her
or
she
can
pull
the
covenant
up.
Okay,
you
know,
whichever
one
I
guess
you
can
just
get
with
hillary
afterwards
and
see
what's
the
best
way
to
get
the
covenant.
A
So
we'll
ask,
for
I
mean
you're
asking
us
to
this.
Is
your
request
that
we
continue
this
until
our
next
month
meeting
to
gather
those
necessary
information?
Yes,
please.
Thank
you,
sir.
A
So
it's
been
probably
made
to
continue
this
next
scheduled
meeting
and
second,
all
in
favor
of
continuous.
A
So
it's
been
moved
that
we
will
continue
this
to
our
next
meeting,
which
is
next
month.
Fourth,
thursday,
all.
A
A
N
N
The
way
if
it's,
okay
with
you
and
the
staff
I
would
like
to
proceed,
is
for
me
to
give
you
a
brief
overview
of
what
the
situation
is
we're
here
about
tonight
and
then
I'm
going
to
ask
one
of
josh
tiller's
associates
kathleen
duncan
to
describe
the
specific
structures
which
we
are
asking
for
a
variance
from
today,
and
then
I
will
address
very
briefly.
N
We
are
here
to
acknowledge
that
and
to
try
to
atone
for
it,
but
we
are
also
here
tonight
very
proudly
of
what
has
been
built,
which
is
a
minimal
minimal
development
on
these
beautiful
islands
that
are
serving
the
people
not
only
of
this
county
but
of
the
state
and
nationwide
with
an
incredible
opportunity.
So,
if
I
can
just
give
you
a
little
bit
of
background
first,
mr
overton
has
been
in
business
more
than
30
years
on
hilton
head
and
in
bluffton.
N
He
runs
outside
brands
and
has
grown
this
to
be
a
nationally
recognized
brand
he's
taught
a
lot
of
children,
including
mine,
and
including
me
how
to
paddleboard
and
how
to
kayak
and
do
the
kinds
of
things
that
we
are
encouraging
for
tourism
in
southern
beaufort
county
in
1998,
because
he
wanted
to
protect
these
islands.
Mr
overton
started
buying
these
page
islands,
which
are
located
basically
at
ramshorn
creek
and
defusky
they're
in
a
very
remote
portion
of
southern
beaufort
county.
N
Very
little
has
ever
been
done
in
this
particular
area,
except
the
county
had
permitted
a
residential
structure
and
a
septic
tank
here
on
this
island,
which
is
important.
I
hope
that
you'll
keep
in
mind,
because
mike
would
never
want
to
do
that
and
has
done
nothing
to
put
any
type
of
septic
tank
in
on
the
islands
instead
from
1998
through
2016.
N
He
has
acquired
these
nine
small
islands
and
by
mistake,
because
he
did
not
know
that
beaufort
county
actually
operated
in
the
rural
areas
like
this.
He
has
built
five
structures
they
impose
and
impede
upon
the
100
foot
setback
of
the
county's
development
code.
There's
no
question
about
that
and
they'll
be
addressed
on
here.
They
are
very
small
structures
that
were
built
only
to
accommodate
the
people
who
come
to
visit
the
island
for
purposes
such
as
field
trips
for
fundraisers,
for
the
team
building
exercises
that
mike
leads
there.
N
This
is
an
incredible
example
of
what
we
should
all
be
looking
for
to
promote
in
beaufort
county
from
our
perspective,
and
it
is
certainly
tough
to
be
here
tonight
asking
you
to
approve
this
after
they
have
been
built,
but
the
standard.
I
believe
that
y'all
will
figure
out
tonight
will
be.
Is
this
a
hardship
and
we
believe
very
strongly
that
it
is?
I
want
you
all
to
understand
that
this
is
a
cog
in
the
wheel
of
addressing
a
number
of
issues
the
county
has
had
with
page
island.
N
You
may
or
may
not
be
aware
of
it.
This
began
this
process
of
us
being
here
tonight
began
about
a
year
and
a
half
ago
when
beaufort
county
and
edgar
stevens
the
business
license
coordinator
here.
First
took
the
position
that
page
islands
needed
to
be
having
a
beaufort
county
business
license
to
operate
because
mike
and
the
outdoor
brands
had
run
the
ferries
that
transport
people
from
palmetto,
bluff
and
bluffton
and
from
hilton
head.
N
N
We
have
worked
with
the
business
licensed
development
people
from
both
hilton
head
and
bluffton,
and
we
feel
like
we
are
at
the
point
where
everyone
agrees,
that
about
eight
percent
of
the
revenues
that
are
generated
from
the
what
is
known
as
the
hilton
head
kayak
company,
which
is
the
basic
commercial
venture
that
operates
these
tours
run
to
page
item.
And
so
there
is
a
premise
on
the
table
that
I
believe
will
be
accepted
for
curing
of
the
business
license
problem.
N
However,
andrew
stevens,
because
she
does
her
job
like
so
many
county
employees,
which
is
to
the
letter
of
the
law,
said,
we
can't
give
you
a
business
license
tom
until
you
go
through
the
zoning
department
and
get
approval
for
these
structures,
which
requires
us
to
be
here
for
a
variance
request
and
then
y'all,
which
will
require
us
to
be
back
in
front
of
you
for
a
s.
Hopefully,
a
special
use
permit
for
ecotourism.
N
All
of
these
things
are
kind
of
falling
in
line,
hopefully,
but
I
wanted
to
give
you
all
the
lay
of
the
land
as
to
why
we
are
here
tonight,
seeking
variance
and
with
that
background,
I'd
like
to
ask
kathleen
duncan
to
come
up
and
explain
to
you
the
nature
of
these
small
structures
that
are
on
the
island,
exactly
the
amount
of
impervious
surfaces
they
create
and
that
type
of
thing.
So
exactly.
A
N
And
there,
but
mike
has
never
wanted
to
put
one
on,
and
we
will
not
put
one
on
mike,
has
actually
worked
with
v-heck
to
craft
a
closed
system
that
uses
rain
water
and
solar
collection
to
run
the
waste
processing
of
eight
latrines.
It's
a
totally
closed
system
and
it's
taken
and
pumped
off
island
and
never
has
any
chance
to
get
on
the
ground
whatsoever.
I
only
brought
that
up,
mr
chairman,
to
say
that
there
were
worse
things.
Certainly
that
could
happen
in
five
small
structures
being
built
on
this
island.
F
I
have
a
question,
mr
taylor,
for
these
structures:
did
he
get
a
building
permit
for
them?
No.
N
C
N
Not
he
you,
sir,
the
owner
before.
F
L
O
O
Can
you
all
right
so,
as
you
can
see,
this
is
a
series
of
islands
up
front.
O
O
So
and
one
of
the
things
to
note
from
this
as
you're
approaching
sorry,
that's
the
thing
as
you're
approaching
from
the
dock
to
the
island.
None
of
these
buildings
are
visible
from
the
waterway.
O
Once
you
get
onto
the
island
you'll
approach,
the
building
b,
which
is,
as
you
can
see,
there's
a
picture
off
to
the
left,
with
a
big
b
on
it.
That
is
the
building
that
you
see
there.
It's
half
enclosed
in
half
open
and
it's
a
basically
a
shed
roof
and
it
is
approximately
11
and
a
half
feet
by
15
feet
and
sits
basically
up
at
the
ground
level
there
building
c,
which
is
up
into
the
right
of
that
which
you'll
see
it's
the
label.
O
That's
just
below
that
previous
picture
building
sees
off
to
the
right
of
the
building
in
terms
of
where
it's
located
on
the
property
and
then,
if
you
scroll
down,
you
can
see.
Building
c
is
the
pavil
open
air
pavilion
on
the
left
hand
side
of
that
picture
behind
the
sitting
circle,
so
that
building
is
an
open,
completely
open
area
pavilion
that
with
a
hip
roof
it's
16
feet
by
16
feet.
O
O
Then
there
is
also
building
g,
which
is
the
latrine.
It's
on
the
upper
left
hand
side
of
that
plan
right
there,
it's
near
located
near
high
marsh
the
high
marsh
grasses.
So
when
you
get
those
spring
floods,
the
water
comes
up.
That's
why
it's
raised
up
off
the
ground
like
as
you
see,
and
that's
where
that
latrine
system
that
unique
custom
sustainably
built
latrine
system
has
been
placed
there.
They
vary
and
that
that
the
train
by
the
way
is
16
feet
by
24
feet.
O
The
thing
that
I
want
you
to
make
sure
that
you're
aware
of
is,
and
the
water
is
collected
off
the
roof
of
that
latrine
system.
Also,
by
the
way,
the
total
impervious
coverage
for
this
site
is
less
than
a
half
percent,
it's
very
minimal
in
terms
of
storm
water
and
we
actually
are
collecting
a
part
of
the
storm
water
through
this
system.
O
So
it's
a
very
light
imprint
a
house
would
be
have
been
a
greater
footprint
than
1500
square
feet,
total
for
sure
the
variance
request
in
terms
of
distance,
the
latrine
is
nine
inches
from
the
ocrm
setback.
That's
the
closest
one.
The
building
b
is.
It
is
two
feet
from
the
ocrm
setback.
O
It's
a
100
foot
setback,
but
also
this
configuration
of
this
site
in
total
is
it's
approximately
175
feet
at
the
narrowest
part,
which
means,
if
you
have
that
100
foot
setback,
you'd
need
at
least
200
feet
and
you'd
still
not
have
room
to
build.
So,
as
you
can
see,
that
makes
any
ability
to
build
on
this
completely
knocked
out
because
of
the
configuration
of
this
site,
so
100
foot
setback
with
this
any
any
kind
of
buildings
on
this
property
for
this
use
would
have
rendered
it.
E
C
C
O
P
N
To
make
sure
that
it's
clear,
there
is
no
proposal
for
that
either.
The
only
structures
that
we
are
here
about
tonight
exist
on
the
first
aisle.
There
are
five
of
them
that
are
there.
There
is
nothing
else
before
this
board
as
far
as
a
request
permit
in
the
future,
or
anything
like
that.
This
is
simply
a
request
for
a
variance
to
allow
page
islands
to
continue
to
use
these
small
structures
rob.
N
Can
we
go
to
the
next
thumb
drive
please,
and
while
we're
doing
that
to
address
just
a
couple
of
things
that
may
have
come,
that
may
have
come
up
in
there
so
that
you
all
will
understand.
The
island
is
used,
as
I
mentioned
earlier,
not
only
for
tourist
groups
who
come
in
and
have
what
are
known
as
team
building
exercises,
it's
used
by
a
lot
of
beaufort
county
school
children
for
their
very
first
field
trips.
They
will
ever
see.
N
It
is
used
for
a
number
of
corporations
that
come
and
have
their
teams
or
their
people
come
and
simply
work
together.
On
this,
there
are
no
commercial
buildings
whatsoever.
It's
very
important.
I
hope
that
if
you'll
roll
that
rob
a
little
bit
that
you
all
understand
that
these
structures
were
built
solely
that
is
the
landing
dock
and
rob
if
you'll
go
on
one
more,
please
these
structures
were
built
solely
to
serve
the
needs
of
people
for
either
weather
or
for
simply
to
get
out
of
the
heat.
N
The
latrines,
of
course,
are
obvious,
but
the
open
air
pavilions
are
are
there
in
order
to
protect
from
storms
or
rain
that
come
up
or
simply
to
get
out
of
the
heat.
There
is
nothing
that
was
ever
built
here
in
order
to
serve
an
inside
commercial
purpose
or
to
attract
people
there
to
use
something
inside,
which
I
do
believe
is
important.
N
Mike
overton
has
built
here
a
facility
that
is
used
by
the
coastal
conservation
league
and
almost
every
other
environmental
group
in
this
state
to
do
major
fundraisers
to
set
as
an
example
of
what
ecotourism
should
be
in
the
south
carolina
country
and
to
specifically
address
and
to
make
sure
that
it
was
clear.
As
far
as
what
ms
duncan
was
saying,
the
100-foot
setback
renders
this
entire
island,
and
this
is
the
largest
one
of
them
all
and
the
only
one
that
could
accommodate
any
type
of
structures.
N
The
100
foot
setback
when
implemented
as
it
is,
renders
the
entire
island
unbuildable
nothing
could
be
built
here
had
might
come
in
the
correct
manner
to
the
county
and
requested
a
building
permit.
We
would
have
been
here
in
any
event,
because
we
would
need
a
variance
for
it,
and
I
ask
y'all's
consideration
of
trying
to
remember
that.
N
As
far
as
the
actual
variance
request
and
the
eight
standards
that
are
looked
at,
we
ask
that
you
all
basically
focus
on
the
fact
that
this
is
a
hardship
that
exists
not
because
of
anything
that
page
island
or
mike
overton
has
done.
This
was
a
god-created,
narrow
island
that,
with
this
setback
in
place,
will
render
it
entirely
inoperable.
We
cannot
do
anything
on
it
and
all
of
these
structures
would
have
to
be
removed.
N
We
believe
development
if
you
want
to
even
call
these
structures
that
that
is
necessary
to
allow
a
reasonable
use
of
the
land.
Again,
I
want
to
focus
with
you
all
on
how
much
mike
has
worked
there
is.
There
are
electric
power
lines
that
cross
this
island,
but
we
have
never
tapped
off
of
them
at
all.
Everything
on
this
island
is
self-sufficient
and
is
generated
from
the
waste
we
bring
all
water
onto
the
island,
except
for
the
rain
water
that
is
captured.
N
We
believe
the
variance
is
in
harmony
with
the
general
spirit
and
intent
of
the
development
code
overall,
because,
while
there
is
certainly
an
argument
to
be
made
that
the
zoning
of
this
island
was
intended
to
keep
it
purely
undeveloped
with
nothing
on
it,
if
you
all
look
at
the
big
picture
of
what
we
want
in
this
county,
we
certainly
want
to
encourage
this
type
of
usage
of
these
islands
so
that
people
can
come
and
can
appreciate
this.
They
can
see
it
the
boardwalks
that
have
been
structured
and,
of
course,
by
the
supplemental
narrative.
N
I've
shown
you
all
that
the
docks
have
been
properly
permitted.
The
boardwalks
were
properly
permitted
mike
has
done
everything
he
can
to
protect
the
environmental
needs
of
this
island
and,
in
fact,
promotes
them
to
everyone
who
will
come
and
see
it.
We
believe
that
the
variance
permit
is
basically
consistent
with
the
overall
comprehensive
plan.
N
Again,
this
is
a
gem
that
we
believe
is
not
only
a
natural
gym
and
mike
has
already
worked
very
hard
to
protect
it.
But
we
ask
that
you
all
have
some
literal
compassion
for
the
fact
that
it
is
a
great
great
facility
that
serves
the
county.
Well,
and
I'd
like
to
ask
mike
to
come
up
and
say
a
few
words,
because
I
know
that
mrs
frederick
at
least
has
a
question.
P
Thank
you,
mr
chairman
board.
I
appreciate
the
opportunity
to
speak
to
you.
Yes,
I'd
like
if
I
can
to
give
a
little
background
on
our
organ,
my
company,
how
I
got
to
where
I
am
where
the
company
is,
how
I
acquired
the
islands
and
what
we're
doing
with
them.
Tom
was
a
little
incorrect.
It's
not
30
years,
it's
been
about
43
years,
but
wait.
P
Me
and
I've
owned
my
business
in
beaufort
county
and
it
the
company
started.
I
started
when
I
was
a
college
student.
I
was
going
to
college
in
vermont
ended
up
one
weekend
meeting
a
fellow
that
lived
on
hilton
head
came
up
to
visit
a
girlfriend
and
said
he
had
a
little
small
construction
business
doing
siding
the
place
was
booming.
It
sounded
really
nice
in
the
middle
of
winter
in
vermont
and
said
he
was
going
to
start
a
windsurfing
school
and
I
said
well,
I.
P
Long
story
short,
we
ended
up
going
decided
to
go
in
the
business
that
night.
My
grandfather
passed
away
that
winter
I
inherited
enough
money
to
purchase.
Six
windsurfers
came
down
to
hilton
that
I'd
never
been
south
of
where
I
grew
up
in
dc.
In
my
life
I
came,
he
said,
met
this
fella.
He
said
you
know,
I've
got
to
tell
you
something.
I've
decided
to
move
to
vermont
to
live
with
my
friend
after
trying
a
customer
who
was
very
frustrated
and
won
his
money
back.
P
I
went
and
got
certified
to
be
a
windsurfing
instructor
and,
like
most
new
business,
people
found
out
location
was
important
and
trying
to
find
a
location
and
being
very
frustrated
for
a
while.
Somebody
asked
me
to
meet
charles
frazier
and
I
got
a
10-minute
appointment
with
mr
frazier
and
that
turned
into
a
full
day
where
he
took
me
all
over.
P
We
the
windsurfing,
grew
in
the
late
80s
we
got
into
kayaking.
I
think
we
became
the
first
company
on
the
east
coast
to
offer
nature
tours
in
kayaks.
Since
there
wasn't
any
standardized
training,
we
started
a
training
program
for
our
guides,
really
to
be
interpretive,
naturalists
and
started
a
program.
P
I
think
that
today
is
really
considered
a
standard
bear
in
the
country
for
training
naturalists,
and
most
of
them
are
also
south
carolina
master
naturalists
and
in
the
late
90s,
a
friend
came
to
me
and
said:
I've
been
caretaking,
a
chain
of
islands
for
a
family,
and
it's
something
I
might
be
interested
in
for
your
business.
So
I
borrowed
a
boat
and
went
over
to
these
islands
and
walked
up
and
looked
around
and
got
back
on.
P
The
boat
went
to
hilton
head,
got
a
sleeping
bag
in
the
tent
and
went
back
and
stayed
for
three
days,
and
I
was
just
awestruck
by
the
beauty
of
the
location,
and
so
I
ended
up
calling
up
the
owner.
Who
would
life
had
moved
on?
He
lived
in
new
york,
it
turns
out.
I
had
taught
him
the
wind
surf
10
years
ago
and
made
a
good
deal
and
bought
these
islands
and
then
figured
out
what
to
do
with
them
and
they
didn't
come
with
one
residential
permit.
P
They
came
with
three
residential
permits
and
three
septic
permits,
and
we
quickly
made
a
decision
to
do
very
little
with
the
islands
and
to
use
them
as
a
example
of
what
the
low
country
salt
marsh
environment
is
in
a
place
where
we
could
hopefully
bring
people
out
and
teach
them
about
the
islands
and
also
we
initially
called
it.
The
page
island
growth
center
because
we
found
it
was
a
great
place
for
growing
teams
and
growing
relationships,
and
we
then
needed
some
basic
facilities
to
have
people
out
there.
P
P
And
so
initially
we
had
a
tent
platf,
a
tent
platform,
just
a
wooden
platform
to
put
a
tent
on
and
decided
to
put
a
roof
over
it.
They
were
building
palmetto
bluff,
the
time
they
actually
let
us
cut
some
trees
down
as
the
plot
as
the
poles
for
that
platform,
which
found
out
later
rotted
and
but
we
simply
have
open
roofs
for
the
platform.
P
A
couple
of
sheds
and
even
though
we
had
septic
permits
the
facility
we
built,
we
didn't
want
the
chance
of
a
we
had
a
soil
study
done
and
it
looked
like
septic
would
pose
quite
a
risk,
so
we
simply
did
not
want
a
chance
of
a
single
drop
of
water
touching
the
ground.
Thus,
the
rain
catchment
and
the
solar-powered
pumps
and
they're
sit
on
dollies
and
they're
small
tanks,
and
if
a
storm
comes,
we
simply
remove
those
tanks
from
the
islands
and.
P
I
simply
was
not
aware
of
the
county
codes
and
that
a
structure
such
as
a
poll
platform
and
the
open
structures
we
built
needed
to
be
permitted,
and
in
hindsight
I
deeply
regret
it.
We
were
wrong
everything
we've
done
out
there.
We've
tried
to
do
truly
in
the
greater
good
of
the
community.
I
made
a
mistake
and
that
you
know
when
those
built
those
pole
structures
were
built
20
years
ago
in
2002,
and
I
I
beg
for
consideration
for
myself
and
all
the
people
that
have
benefited
from
being
out
there.
P
It's
a
page
island
has
become
a
place
that
delivers
really
the
mission
of
our
company
of
enriching
lives
by
connecting
people
the
exceptional
places
of
the
low
country.
I
think
every
person
that
goes
over
there
is
versed
on
a
leave,
no
trace
philosophy
and
they
leave
without
a
true
understanding
of
how
fragile
the
salt
marsh
environment
is
in
the
low
country,
and
actually
I
don't
want
to
get
sappy.
E
P
P
We've
had
some
groups
that
camped
over
there.
In
fact,
when
we
some
of
the
work
we've
done
in
in
2016
after
matthew,
the
island
was
obviously
destroyed
and
we
had
five
feet
of
marsh
rack
and
we
had
a
lot
of
different
groups
that
volunteered
to
come
over
from
football
teams
to
church
groups,
and
we
had
several
schools
that
volunteered
to
come
over
if
they
could
camp
there.
So
we
have
had
some
camping
on
the
island.
Yes,
but
it's
not
a
regular
thing.
F
I
have
several
questions.
I
find
it
disingenuous
that
you
say
that
you
didn't
know
that
the
beaufort
county
needed
a
permit
when
it
was
permitted
for
how
three
houses
and
septic
fields
when
you
bought
it.
So
obviously
somebody
had
permitted
it,
and
it
seems
to
me
that
you're
in
the
business
of
asking
for
forgiveness,
for
what
you've
done
instead
of
asking
for
permission,
because
if
the
first
doc
permit
is
the
proposed
activity,
is
to
provide
access
and
utilities
for
the
property
owner's
private
recreational
use
that
was
in
1999
and
by
your
own
admission.
F
Y'all
were
using
it
for
commercial
use
by
2002
that
you
had
that
and
not
getting
a
building
permit
the
international
building
code.
I
have
the
2000
copy
of
it
here,
and
the
only
buildings
that
are
not
required
to
have
a
building
permit
is
a
120
square
foot
storage
shed
or
a
120
foot
square
foot
playhouse.
F
F
F
Then,
when
you
got
the
new
building,
perm
dart
permit
in
2013,
it's
stated
that
it
captures
compliance
assistance
after
the
fact
for
the
structure
being
built
out
of
accordance
with
the
original
permit.
I
mean
it's
like
one.
Two
three
four
everything
you
did
was
not
in
accordance
with
the
laws
and
you're
just
asking
for
forgiveness,
all
the
time.
P
You
may
respond
to
that
sure.
Are
you
finished
yeah
the
1999
permits?
I
purchased
these
islands
in
late
99
and
some
in
2000,
and
so
there
was
permit
work
done
by
the
seller,
which
was
these
residential
permits
were
done
by
the
seller.
I,
so
I
was
aware
absolutely
that
you
need
a
residential
permit.
I
didn't
think
that
a
small
platform
with
a
roof
over
it
was
a
structure
or
was
a
building
when
those
were
built
at
the
time
and
the
dock
was
there
was
permitted.
A
P
N
P
The
hurricane
clips
were
put
on
this
year
after
the
report
asked
us
to
have
an
engineering
study,
so
this
report
came
out.
A
report
came
out
saying
that
we
needed
to
have
an
engineer.
Look
at
the
buildings
which
an
engineer
came
out.
Looked
at
them
said.
First
off,
none
of
these
buildings
are
habitable,
and
so
there
was
very
limited
what
needed
to
be
done,
but
then
said
you
should
put
the
hurricane
straps
on
them,
and
so
that
was
done
in
past
winter
december
january.
Can.
A
You
say
this
report
from
what,
where
is
that
report
came
from
when
you
said
this
report
that
came
from
the
county?
The
county,
okay,.
G
P
The
rest
of
the
islands
are
really
undeveloped.
We
do
team
building
activities,
but
the
team
building
the
islands
provide
two
key
ingredients
for
team
building,
one
they
take
people
out
of
their
comfort
zone,
often
simply
by
putting
them
on
a
boat
and
taking
them
somewhere.
They
really
don't
know
where
they're
gonna
go
and
two
they
eliminate
distractions.
P
So
when
you
get
people
and
they're
sitting
in
a
on
benches
or
doing
an
activity
with
each
other
and
they're
completely
away
from
the
four
walls
of
a
boardroom
in
a
beautiful
location,
it
provides
often
for
growing
relationships,
and
so
we
really
we
have
some
portable
activities
out
there.
We
do
but
there's
nothing
developed
and
it's
really
and
there's
a
nature
trail.
That
goes
through
all
the
trails
we've
built.
P
In
fact,
when
people
come-
and
I
mentioned-
leave
no
trace-
we
have
very
defined
areas.
We
ask
people
to
walk
on
so
often
even
to
go
from
a
to
b.
They
have
to
go
quite
a
ways
around
to
leave
most
of
the
space
open
and
untouched.
F
F
They
were
talking
about
the
birds
that
they
saw
and
on
page
island
over
a
hundred
juvenile
wood
stores
and
then
that
same
2018
right
around
the
same
time.
The
only
disappointment
was
the
number
of
groups
using
page
island
all
at
the
same
time,
and
how
does
this
protect
our
environment.
P
P
They
go
over.
They
kayak
they
paddle
board,
they
swim,
they
might
be
picked
up
on
a
boat
and
taken
for
a
little
food
ride
or
so
forth.
They
fish
off
the
dock,
and
so,
if
there's
a
crowding
situation,
it's
almost
always
on
the
dock.
It's
exceptionally
rare
that
people
are
on
the
uplands
unless
they're
going
to
the
restroom
or
going
back
and
they're
stopping
briefly.
P
So
sometimes,
if
there's
a
group
coming
over
on
one
of
these,
what
we
call
ultimate
days
and
they
stop
there
and
are
hoping
it's
a
completely
private
island,
there's
two
other
families
or
three
other
families
there,
and
so
in
that
situation
my
hunch
was,
there
may
have
been
20
people
on
families.
In
that
situation
we
take,
I
mean
the
rookeries
that
are
out
there.
P
G
P
I'm
not
sure
we
have
a
well,
I
know
we've
never
had
the
largest
event
we've
ever
done
on
page
island
was
a
fundraiser
for
the
outside
foundation.
I
think
we
ended
up
having
a
total
of
220
people,
including
staff
on,
and
everything
we
do
is
on
island,
one
which
we
call
it.
We
kind
of
name
the
islands
one
through
nine,
and
so
all
that
we
try
to
focus
on
that
out
and
they
eat
there.
They
use
the
restroom.
C
I
have
several
questions,
sir.
You
say:
you're
strictly
solar
powered.
P
The
only
power
we
have
on
the
island
is
a
solar-powered
pump
strictly
for
the
latrines,
so
the
only
that's
the
only
power
that's
on
the
island.
So
where
are
the
solar
panels?
It's
a
small
solar
panel
that
sits
on
top
of
a
cistern
where
the
water
goes
right
behind
the
unit
right
behind
the
structure.
C
When
I
looked
at
your
website,
I
saw
a
lot
of
lights
lit
up
there
at
night.
What.
P
C
I'm
looking
at
your
exhibit
b,
where
he
requested
the
doc
he
changed
from
private
use
to
commercial
use,
yes
and
but
nothing's
signed
on
that
particular
exhibit
there's
no
signatures.
Yes,
sir,
I
was.
N
Surprised
at
that
too,
these
these
were
gathered
this
week,
mr
schinsky,
in
response
to
ms
austin's
staff
report
that
came
out
last
friday
night
and
we
were
in
a
hurry
to
get
them.
I
was
surprised
there
was
no
signature,
but
I
am
assured
by
the
ocrm
people
who
supplied
this,
that
this
is
in
fact
an
actual
document
which
was
issued
by
ocrm,
and
I
will
certainly
endeavor
to
get
you
a
signed
portion
of
it.
But
this
came
from
ocrm's
files
to
my
understanding.
G
Mr
taylor,
and
also
I'd
like
to
understand
what
mr
irvington
or
mr,
what
you
see
the
bounds
of
ecotourism
there.
If,
where
you
see,
what's
your
vision
for
this
in
five
years,
because
where
what
I've
heard
is
to
the
presentation
of
the
environmental
use,
is
not
what
you
see
on
a
quick
google
search
where
you
can
book,
it
looks
like
a
wedding
up
to
350
dollars
for
3
500
to
10
thousand
dollars.
50
people
yeah
yeah,
350,
okay.
So
so
I'm
just
kind
of
wanting
to
understand
what.
N
E
N
P
Is
that
what
you're
asking
for,
and
so
I
think,
the
definition
of
ecotourism
would
be
travel
to
natural,
cultural
or
historical
locations
which
embeds
an
understanding
of
conservation
as
well
as
the
nature
and
keeps
the
revenue
in
the
local
economy.
That
typically,
is
often
what's
referred
to
as
ecotourism
and
every
every
person
who
touches
that
island
is
one
immersed
naturally,
but
they're
also
go
through
a
conversation
on
what
the
nature
and
the
history
and
the
culture
of
the
area
is
about,
and
you
know
and
then
walking
there.
P
I
don't
know
of
another
destination
that
really
in
the
area.
It
really
highlights
ecotourism
more
than
page
island
and
even
if
you're
having
a
party
the
fact
that
doing
a
party
that
can
be
done
sustainably
as
far
as
the
plastics
as
far
as
eating
only
local
food
that's
grown
in
the
waters
right
there
and
if
there
is
anybody
singing
or
entertaining
that's
local
relative
to
the
culture.
If
it's
a
gullah
singer
or
so
forth,
all
that
nature,
history
and
culture
goes
into
really.
P
What
makes
the
place,
I
think
well
past
any
definition
of
ecotourism.
C
Q
I
just
want
to
make
it
clear
to
the
board
that
this
issue
of
page
island
started
around
the
time
during
the
pandemic
and
also
the
time
that
we
were
considering
bay
point
island
ecotourism,
getting
it
ready
to
bring
before
you
all
I,
and
they
were
doing
some
work
on
that,
and
I
advised
the
applicant
at
that
time
that
he
should
stamp
not
do
anything
with
ecotourism
on
his
particular
island,
because
I
did
not
want
the
controversy
of
bay
point
allen
to
catch
him
off
guard.
Q
I
would
encourage
you
all,
I'm
not
speaking
in
favor
or
against
in
any
way,
but
I
would
again
encourage
you
all
tonight.
There
he's
got
to
come
back
for
the
eco
tourism
piece
tonight.
You
are
considering
the
merits
of
the
hardship
on
relief
for
the
variances.
He
will
have
to
be
back
for
the
tourism
piece
and
then.
Finally,
I
would
tell
you
that
we
have
these
types
of
uses
all
over
the
county,
and
I
I'm
not.
Q
Q
I've
been
to
several
events
out
at
emores,
with
a
lot
of
people
that,
where
structures
have
been
tense,
have
been
erected
close
to
the
water,
and
things
like
that.
So
my
point
is:
is
it's
possible
for
environmentally
sensitive
events
to
occur
in
ecologically
sensitive
places
without
it
not
having
an
impact
on
the
natural
environment,
and
I
would
just
encourage
you
all
to
consider
that
this
evening,
as
you're,
considering
these
hardships.
C
Q
We
will
we
will
definitely.
We
will
definitely
be
having
a
discussion
if
you
all
approve
the
structure
variances
tonight
and
the
ecotourism
use
in
the
future.
I
guarantee
you
and
I
promise
you.
I
will
be
going
back
and
recapturing
all
of
my
ag
use
value
all
of
the
building
permits.
We
will
be
doubling
building
permit
fees,
we
will
do
we'll
be
doing
everything
within
our
power
to
make
the
county
whole
in
this
situation
because
of
what
has
occurred
here.
Okay,
so
thank
you.
S
Good
evening,
just
real
quickly,
you
know
I
wanted
you
know
to
us.
This
issue
is
actually
fairly
simple.
S
You
know,
I
think
that
it's
clear
to
everyone
that
when
you
build
something
without
a
permit-
and
you
probably
deal
with
this
a
lot
and
it's
not
in
the
right
location-
that
that's
not
a
hardship,
you
know.
So
we
have
to
look
at
this.
S
You
know
under
the
definitions
that
we
have
in
article
seven
for
hardship
and
variance.
I
just
want
to
run
through
those
real
quick,
because
you
know
when
you
start
out.
Yes,
I
mean
this
property
does
present
a
hardship.
We
have
a
50-foot
buffer
and
then
an
additional
50-foot
setback
from
the
ocrm
critical
line,
and
these
islands
are
shaped
in
such
a
way
that
if
you
draw
that
building
envelope
with
a
hundred
feet,
I'm
not
sure
if
you
actually
have
a
building
open.
S
Yeah
with
a
50,
you
might,
you
know,
have
some
area
to
construct
something.
So
you
know
when
you
look
at
these.
Are
there
extraordinary
exceptional
conditions,
topographic
conditions,
speech,
front
setback,
lines,
narrowness,
shallowness?
Yes,
I
mean
this.
This
would
meet
that
particular
point
of
a
variance
with
the
extraordinary
exceptional
conditions:
they're,
not
the
result
of
the
land,
the
act
of
the
land
owner.
Although
those
conditions
on
the
island
are
not
the
result
of
the
of
the
property
owner.
S
S
S
So
where
we
run
into
an
issue,
is
when
you
get
down
to
the
the
next
item
here,
since
the
variance
permit
would
not
confer
any
special
privilege
on
the
landowner,
it
is
defined
and
I
guess
we'll
move
on
to
the
next
one.
The
extent
of
the
variance
permit
is
the
minimum
necessary
to
allow
reasonable
use
of
the
lander
structure.
S
This
is
where,
as
staff,
we
have
a
bit
a
real
problem,
because
this
project
had
they
can
initiate
the
project
the
proper
way
it
would
have
started
with
the
pre-application
conference,
with
our
staff
review
team
gone
to
conceptual
when
we
would
have
worked
through
these
issues.
We've
looked
at
the
what
the
use
was.
We
would
have
identified
it
as
a
special
use
ecotourism,
and
you
know
that
use
requires
85,
open
space.
We
would
have
had
to
factor
all
that
in
and
then
work.
S
On
in
this,
piece
of
property
would
be
appropriate
if
they
wanted
to
cite
structures
and
where
you
see
them
on
the
site
plan
is
not
not
something
that
would
come
out
of
the
staff
review
team.
We
would.
We
would
not,
as
you
said,
jane
a
99
foot
variants.
You
know,
because
we
feel
we
would
be
working
with
the
minimum
necessary,
so
we
would
have
probably
favored
the
center
of
the
island.
S
You
know
for
these
structures,
maybe
encourage
them
to
consolidate
some,
and
you
know,
work
around
that
we
would
have
worked
around
the
trees.
The
existing
site
features.
All
of
that
would
have
occurred
prior
to
this
ever
coming
to
the
zoning
board
of
appeals,
and
so
when
we
look
at
so.
The
other
item
is:
is
this
conferring
special
privilege
if
we
presented
this
plan
to
you?
This
is
not
something
that
we
would
have
ever
permitted
if
it
went
through
the
proper
process,
and
so
it
would
be.
S
S
So
you
know
it's,
we
even
we
restrict
residential
property
owners
from
putting
pavilions
and
things
like
that
in
their
highway
or
in
their
sorry
their
river
buffer.
So
this
is
not
something
that
our
staff
would
be
bringing
forward
to
this
board
if
this
was
coming
in
as
a
developing
new
site,
and
so
from
our
standpoint
we
need
to
you
know
we
need
to
look
at
this
project
as
what
would
this
look
like
if
they
did
it
the
right
way?
You
know
there
are
aspects
of
it.
S
You
know
the
the
boardwalk,
the
docks
you
know,
those
they
don't
appear
to
exceed
the
maximum
life.
You
know
just
based
on
you
know
certain
things
like
that
weren't
permitted
properly
with
the
county,
but
I
don't
necessarily
look
at
them
as
a
problem,
but
these
structures
clearly
are
not
located
in
an
area
where
we
would
approve
them
so
that
you
know
so.
For
that
reason,
we
we
are
obligated
to
recommend
denial
so.
S
S
S
Important
thing
I
think
everyone's
aware
this
district
or
all
marsh
islands
are
zoned,
either
t1
natural
preserve.
In
this
case
this
is
called
d1,
because
it's
a
special
district
for
daufuskie
but
they're
our
most,
you
know
protected
it's
our
most
protective
zoning
district.
It's
meant
to
really
encourage
low
to
as
low
and
light
impact
development
as
possible
because
of
the
the
environmental
nature
of
these
islands.
A
S
G
M
C
Sir,
when
I'm
looking
at
these
structures,
what
happened
to
all
this
when
matthew
hit
good
question.
P
Did
they
blow
away
so
when
matthew
came
again?
If
I
can
also
relative
to
that
question,
address
kind
of
our
criteria
we
thought
through
when
we
did
build
the
structures
one
we
wanted
them
to
be
in
harmony
with
the
landscape.
You
know,
for
example,
a
story
on
that
latrine
facility.
P
P
P
But
to
answer
your
question
about
matthew,
I
was
matthew
on
the
fescue
island.
I
was
there
about
11
a.m.
That
morning
the
peak
of
matthew
was
about
5
a.m,
and
the
island
basically
was
destroyed
from
iraq.
On
these
structures,
the
latrine
structure
really
was.
One
thing
we
did
was
the
way
this
works
is
those
there's
toilets.
They
go
down
into
individual
pvc
tanks,
the
waste
that
sit
on
rolling
dollies
and
when
they're
half
full,
we
roll
the
dollies
near
the
dock.
P
P
So
what
about
the
roofs
and
all
that
stuff?
My
point
is
that
the
training
facility
was
buying,
so
we've
removed
them.
We
took
the
bottom
part
out
what
it
went
underneath
it
on
decking
on
the
shelters
that
have
the
roofs.
The
decking
was
completely
gone,
the
roofs
were
fine.
There,
it
was,
the
decking
was
moved,
we
put
it
back
in
place
and
the
other
structures
that
were
there
were
fine.
You
know
we
had
so
really.
While
it
took
us
almost
a
year
to
get
all
the
marsh
rack
off
the
island.
P
The
structures
really
didn't
have
much
damage.
A
U
And
thank
you
for
having
me
here
on
behalf
of
mr
overton
and
the
staff.
I
know
them
for
many
many
years.
I
am
a
daufuskie
sixth
generation
born
native,
and
I
appreciate
that
as
small
as
the
island
is,
that
he's
trying
to
continue
to
keep
it
as
an
ecosystem
and
as
a
personal
chef,
I
can
tell
you
I've
been
there
and
it
just
felt
like
home.
U
I
remember
because
the
festive
is
now
developing
and
there
are
things
there
that
I
wish
most
friction
would
be
on
being
honest
with
you,
but
it's
a
beautiful
place
and
kids
come
from
other
areas
come
to
a
place
like
this
really
appreciate
it.
I
know
it's
hard
to
understand
when
you've
not
been
there,
but
and
if
you
go
there,
you'll
see
the
beauty
in
it.
U
U
I
understand
he
probably
got
to
make
some
changes
whatever
he
have
to
do
to
correct
things,
but
I'm
asking
on
behalf
to
please,
because
this
is
a
beautiful
island-
that's
trying
to
be
preserved
and
protected
the
way
it
should
be
the
way
we
really
would
like
for
us
to
have
our
kids
and
generations
to
come
to
appreciate,
because
without
it,
they're
not
going
to
understand
what
the
love
of
nature
and
how
beautiful
life
is
living
in
a
low
country.
W
One
of
the
guides
that
takes
field
trips
and
other
such
events
out
there.
I
also
do
a
lot
of
the
word
maintenance
for
better,
better
term
out
there
and
when
I
started
working
for
mike
in
2015.
So
it's
been
a
handful
of
years
now,
the
first
few
times
that
I
was
out
there.
He
was
very
particular
about
the
way
that
we
treat
the
island
anytime.
W
We
take
anyone
out
there,
whether
it's
a
family,
a
corporation,
a
school,
the
boy
scouts,
whoever
it
is
the
strict
protocol
for
how
we
introduce
the
island
and
how
we
tell
them
to
treat
the
island
and
that
refers
to
staying
on,
boardwalks
and
out
of
certain
natural
areas
protecting
brush
to
not
disturb
root
structures,
not
going
into
wooded
areas
and
disturbing
habitats.
Things
like
that
and
then
later
on,
when
I
started
doing
maintenance
out
there,
he
again
came
out
and
led
the
charge
of
this
is
how
it's
going
to
be
done.
W
W
If
it's
not
going
to
be
a
danger
to
someone,
then
it
should
stay,
and
when
we
do
take
people
out
there,
they
they
really
do
appreciate
the
fact
that
it's
as
natural
as
it
is,
and
we've
had
handfuls
of
people
dozens
of
people
out
there
over
the
years
that
have
told
us.
This
is
the
most
remote
place.
I've
ever
been
in
my
life
and
if
you
know
where
it
is
geographically
between
hilton,
head,
bluffton
and
savannah,
it's
not.
W
T
Good
evening
I
am
james
price
I
have
worked
for
outside
for
17
years,
and
really
the
only
thing
I
want
to
share
with
you
all
is
a
little
story
about
a
group
of
kids
that
came
from
a
church.
There
were
six
young
men
that
had
no
fathers
in
their
families
in
their
house
and
having
a
boy
go
out
there
and
catch
his
first
fish
having
those
boys
start
a
fire
for
their
first
time,
those
kinds
of
experiences
with
their
church
leaders.
T
R
I'm
dean
moss,
I'm
chairman
of
the
board
of
the
port
world,
sound
foundation,
I'm
not
speaking
for
the
foundation
here
this
evening,
I'm
speaking
as
an
individual
education
of
the
public
about
the
lands
and
water
support
royal
sound
is
one
of
the
key
missions
of
the
foundation
chair
of
the
board,
I'm
constantly
looking
for
places
and
programs
which
do
the
education
and
do
it
well.
R
R
Fishing
now
and
then,
to
my
knowledge,
none
of
them
would
comply
with
the
current
county
standards.
R
I
believe
the
decision
should
be
based
on
an
analysis
of
the
benefits
to
the
community
that
the
current
site
layout
provides
versus
what
actual
impacts
that
it
is
having
on
the
region's
environment.
I
suggest
that
the
zboa
defer
action
on
this
and
ask
the
staff
to
actually
visit
the
site
to
my
knowledge.
They
have
not.
If
anyone
on
the
board
visited
the
site,
I
didn't
think
so.
R
X
Thank
you
very
much
for
the
opportunity
to
speak
on
behalf
of
mike
and
outside
brands
and
paige
island.
I
am
a
physician
here.
I
grew
up
on
hilton.
Head
grew
up
working
for
mike
for
many
years
at
outside
hilton
head
and
many
things
I
learned
from
mike.
I
employ
every
day
I
think
are
good
traits.
I
have
such
as
persistence,
communication
skills
being
a
teacher
and
promoting
health
for
the
individual,
the
community
and
the
environment.
X
Mike
told
me
of
the
people,
told
me
the
names
of
the
people
who
are
speaking
today
and
there's
some
quite
diverse
community
leaders.
I
think
all
of
us
share
the
fact
that
when
we
set
foot
on
page
island,
though
I
remembered
how
hilton
head
was
she
remembered
how
the
fuss
he
was.
People
had
remembered
how
beautiful
it
was
and
bluffton
was,
and
we
see
the
structures
intertwined
with
nature
rather
than
suppressing
when
we
left
page
island.
X
Page
island
fosters
these
memories
and
I
think
page
island
promotes
these
habits
of
sustainability.
I
recognize
that
mike
made
some
mistakes.
I
think
he
recognizes
this
as
well.
I
think
he
hates
that
page
island
is
in
the
spotlight
in
this
fashion,
but
I
ask
that
you
look
at
the
totality
of
what
mike
has
done
as
a
community
leader
in
the
last
40
years
to
inspire
many
kids
like
me,
going
through
his
organization.
X
I
also
ask
that
you
look
at
the
totality
of
what
outside
brands,
as
a
company
has
done
so
many
positive
things
in
this
community,
and
hopefully
we
can
come
up
with
a
solution
that
allows
mike
to
continue
to
do
his
good
work
and
allows
paige
island
to
continue
to
tell
her
story.
Thank
you.
Thank
you.
Y
Jack
daley,
I'm
a
neighbor.
I
have
180
acres
of
marsh
and
sandy
flats
and
everything
right
next
to
page
island
and
just
so
everyone
kind
of
can
keep
our
lane
straight.
You
know,
neemers
is
a
private
corporation.
You
can't
rent
it.
You
can't
just
pay
them
money
to
go
there.
Y
Fish
camps
are
private
family
owned.
You
you
can
rent,
I
guess
for
outside.
You
can
rent
page
for
events
and
weddings
and
so
forth.
All
I
have
on
my
islands
is
birds
right
and
I've
taken
the
head
of
south
carolina
audubon
out
there
and
people
from
land
trust
and
immediately
I
recognized
I
didn't
recognize
it.
I
saw
a
lot
of
birds.
Y
I
didn't
recognize,
took
pictures
shared
them
with
south
carolina,
dnr
felicia
sanders,
beaufort,
county,
open
land
trust
and
it
overwhelmed
me
the
amount
of
priority
birds
on
the
audubon
national
list,
the
globalist
there's
over
20
species
out
there
that
are
threatened
and
should
be
protected
and
they
are
protected
at
different
levels,
and
I
said
you
know
what
I'm
not
going
to
skunk
this
up.
I'm
going
to
when
I
get
my
survey
done,
I'm
going
to
have
a
conservation
easement
placed
on
this
property.
Y
It
means
more
of
the
birds
than
it
does
to
me.
I'm
gonna
back
up
and
leave
it
alone.
It's
got
a
special
purpose
in
our
you
know,
habitat
in
our
environment
that
supersedes
anything
that
I
would
want
to
try
and
do
or
to
make
a
dollar
or
something
right.
It's
special
and
wood,
storks
piping,
plovers
long
build
curlews
rosie
at
spoonbills.
Y
I
could
bore
you
to
death
with
all
the
names
of
the
birds,
but
from
that
point
on,
I
was
like
you
know
what
it's
more
important
for
nature
than
it
is
for
me
to
do
anything,
and
I
have
bigger
islands
and
more
and
all
of
that,
and
so
so
that's
where
I
am-
and
I
do
worry
about
having
you
know
a
commercial
venture.
Next
to
me.
It's
you
know,
high
density,
possibly
impacting
the
environment,
impacting
my
property
things
that
are
on
my
property.
Y
I
have
you
know,
and
one
thing
I
learned
about
the
small
hummus
out
there
is
the
most
important
part
is
the
outside
ring
of
the
canopy,
because
that's
where
all
the
shorebirds
come
up
at
high
tide,
all
the
roosting
birds,
the
word
strokes
from
the
outside
of
that
island
around
that
edge
and
it
hit
me
that's
why
there's
a
50-foot
river
buffer?
Y
It's
not
just
a
number.
We
come
up
with
it's
a
number
to
allow
those
birds
to
go
up
there
and
they
look
over
the
marsh.
They
come
up
at
a
super
high
tide
or
when
the
sandbar
is
full
of
boats
or
the
beaches
are
crowded
hilton
head.
That's
where
they
go
is
the
outer
rims
of
those
islands
got
30
seconds
left?
Okay,
so
there's
a
lot
out
there
that
I
respect
and
want
to
see
protected.
Y
And
you
know
it's
not
a
fish
camp,
it's
not
a
private
foundation,
it's
not
a
business
and
let's
some
of
those
codes
pieces
are
written
for
a
good
purpose,
and
so
that's
all
I've
got
to
say.
Thank
you.
Z
Thank
you
so
much
for
allowing
me
to
make
comments.
My
name
is
jean
free,
I'm
a
16-year
employee
of
outside
hilton
head
as
a
kayak
guide,
and
also
a
low
country
master
naturalist,
I'm
a
lifetime
educator
and
a
20-year
resident
of
hilton
head
island,
I'm
also
the
executive
director
of
the
outside
foundation.
It's
a
separate
501c3,
founded
in
2014
with
the
mission
to
get
kids
outside
and
to
preserve
and
to
protect
our
local
ecosystem.
Z
As
a
foundation,
we
connect
over
a
thousand
local
children
a
year
to
the
salt
marshes
through
a
school
day
of
kayaking
and
exploring
our
tidal
rivers
to
create
this
non-profit
wholly
separate
from
the
company
to
further
the
mission
really
of
outside
brands
to
enrich
lives
by
connecting
people
to
exceptional
places.
Products
and
experiences
is
truly
remarkable.
Z
Z
The
entirety
of
the
maritime
forest
is
for
there
to
for
us
to
enjoy,
and
we've
already
mentioned
the
pathways.
It's
a
lot
of
fun
to
be
on
the
docks,
with
the
kids
pulling
a
crab
trap
on
one
side.
Talking
about
you
know
having
you
know
these
blue
and
having
dolphins
swim
by.
On
the
other
side,
it's
like
magic.
The
page
islands
are
a
living
laboratory
that
welcomes
teachers,
students
and
scientists,
one
of
the
things
that
we
have
done
proactively.
Z
Z
Z
AA
Because
I
was
part
of
the
leadership
program
with
the
hilton
head,
bluffton
chamber
of
commerce,
and
they
kick
off
every
year
with
a
retreat,
using
page
island
and
mike's
group
to
do
team
building
and
that's
a
great
experience.
But
the
best
part
of
that
experience
is
when
you
step
off
the
boat
and
you're
immersed
in
nature,
and
you
see
how
the
few
structures
that
are
there
are
built
in
harmony
with
nature
and
the
pathways
and
teaching
people
about
how
to
preserve
our
local
ecology,
which
is
just
so
critical.
AA
And
so
you
know
that's
part
of
what
you
leave
with
when
you
go
there
right
and
you
it's
part
of
the
entire
day
and
part
of
the
experience
reinforcing
the
things
that
you
can
do
and
the
things
that
they
have
done
on
that
island
to
allow
nature
to
continue
to
allow
the
fiddler
crabs
to
do
their
thing
in
the
marshes
and
the
birds
to
come
and
eat
them
and
those
kinds
of
things.
It's
had
an
incredible
impact
on
me.
AA
I
now
build
oyster
reefs
with
the
outside
foundation
and
have
brought
my
nieces
out
to
page
island
to
do
an
oyster
reef.
Build
and
we
used
that
shelter
when
the
storms
came
up
right.
We
used
the
facilities
there
because
I
couldn't
drive
from
hilton
head
island
here,
without
knowing
immediately
when
I
walked
in
the
door
where
the
facilities
were
so.
Those
things
are
critical.
So
I
ask
you
to
consider.
I
truly
believe
that
this
is
the
best
experience
in
the
low
country.
I
think
it's
good
for
the
ecology.
I
think
it's
good
for
the
economy.
AA
AA
V
Thank
you,
I'm
larry
tuber
from
lefton,
my
family's
been
around
here
in
the
seafood
business
for
about
120
years
or
so
so
since
I
was
a
little
boy,
I've
been
in
the
river.
V
Currently
I
serve
on
town
council
have
for
the
last
nine
years
right
now,
I'm
serving
as
mayor
pro
tem,
which
is
a
nice
title
to
have,
but
I'm
not
here
as
as
a
town
representative
today,
I'm
here
as
a
resident-
and
I
just
I
understand
you
guys
jobs-
I
deal
with
it
too,
so
believe
me.
If
I
I'm
not,
I'm
not
trying
to
throw
rocks
or
anything,
but
I
do
like
to
try
to
make
peace
and
smooth.
T
V
One
thing
I
want
to
bring
up
is
that
the
the
line,
the
ocrm
line
just
sat
back
these
these
buildings.
If
you
want
to
call
them
buildings,
I
call
them
more
of
a
shed
than
an
actual
building
the
rooftops
and,
and
these
things
are
smaller
than
what
you
see
anywhere
you
ride
up
and
down
the
river,
as
as
pier
heads
covers
on
on
docks
that
are
300
feet
over
the
water.
V
V
What
harms
it
going
to
be
to
build
one
you
know
on
on
dart,
if
it
the
distance
from
the
the
ocr,
the
setback
yeah.
If
you
get
what
I'm
saying,
that's
just
one
thing
I'll
go
back
in
history
a
little
bit.
I
remember
when
this
islands
didn't
have
anything
on,
except
for
me
sometime
when
we
were
deer
hunting
tall
gun
hunting
as
a
kid
right
now
within
sight
of
this
island
within
sight.
V
AB
I
was
general
manager
at
outside
hilton
head
a
number
of
years
ago
mike,
and
I
and
a
group
of
folks
were
fortunate
to
be
invited
over
to
pritchard's
island
to
camp
one
weekend
and
we
kayaked
over
kayaked
all
around
discovered
the
beauty
of
it
and
at
the
end
you
know
mike
said
we
need
something
like
this,
and
so
he
set
out
to
to
find
a
place
and
it
took
many
years
and
it
actually
found
him
and
you
know,
he's
just
developed
it
into
a
a
really
special
place.
AB
I
encourage
you
if
you
have
an
opportunity
to
to
go
out
and
see
it.
Nothing
like
seeing.
You
know
kid
catch
his
first
fish,
his
first
crab,
some
of
the
kids
that
come
over
there
have
not
been
over
in
an
area
like
that
on
a
boat,
and
it's
just
really
special
and
I
hope
you
will
allow
the
variants.
AC
AC
It
is
dustin
wilder
good
evening.
Thank
you
good
evening.
I'm
a
father
of
four
and
I've
lived
in
beaufort
county
for
over
18
years
and
the
first
time
I
had
the
opportunity
to
go
to
page
islands
15
years
ago
with
my
kids
in
elementary
school
back
then,
and
most
recently
I
was
out
at
page
island
in
march
of
22.,
and
I
can
tell
you
very
little-
is
changed
in
that
time
frame.
AC
The
first
time
I
took
my
kids
there,
it
was,
it
was
a
magical
experience
and
if
any
of
you
all
have
ever
been
there,
you
know
you
know
what
a
gem
this
island
is
to
beaufort
county
and
to
the
low
country
that
that
first
experience
was
actually
an
eco
tour
with
my
kids
and
it
was
a
half
day
excursion.
AC
We
went
out
there
loaded
up
in
sunscreen.
I
think
boo
harrell
was
our
boat
captain
that
day
and
we
we
fished,
we
crab,
we
kayaked
we
stink.
We
did
the
stand
up
paddle
boards,
I
don't
think
the
lutrine
was
there
at
that
time.
I
don't
know
I
remember
being
behind
a
palm
tree,
but
that
I
can
tell
you
this.
That
trip
was
made
an
everlasting
impression
in
my
kids
lives.
We
witnessed
dolphins,
strand,
feeding
on
the
way
home
in
the
boat.
It
was
magical
to
this
day.
AC
That
trip
was
an
experience
that
taught
them
the
importance
of
taking
care
of
mother
nature
and
being
out
in
the
natural
land,
and
you
know,
if
that's
not
experiential
learning,
I
don't
know
what
is,
but
this
county
needs
page
island,
this
county
benefits
from
having
page
island.
So
thank
you
for
your
time
and
your
consideration.
Thank
you.
I
Quick
comments
here,
I
know
mike
and
his
company
outside
hilton,
head
well
and
they're,
a
great
asset
to
this
county
to
beaufort
county
spending.
Time
on
page
island
is
truly
a
unique
experience
and
has
had
a
profound
effect
on
so
many
people.
What
mike
has
done
and
created
on
page
island
should
be
held
up
as
an
example
of
sound
echo,
terrorism
practices
and
I
believe
he
is
deserving
of
this
experience.
A
Thank
you,
dick
stewart.
AD
Thank
you,
mr
chairman,
members
of
the
committee,
thank
you
for
your
service
to
the
citizens
of
beaufort
county.
We're
not
here
today
about
bad
actors.
You've
heard
people
talk
about
mike
pay
about
mike
overton,
page
island
and
his
company
and
their
experiences.
We've
heard
people
talk
about
regulations
in
the
past.
I
had
the
opportunity
to
be
on
county
council
and
serve
on
the
land
management
committee.
While
we
were
doing
the
rezonings
one
of
the
issues
we
often
talked
about
is:
are
we
going
to
deprive
anyone
of
the
ability
to
use
their
land?
AD
AD
What
mike
has
done
is
he's
not
a
bad
actor
he's
been
in
business
here
for
43
years.
He's
not
cutting
the
corner,
he's
not
one
of
those
guys.
You
routinely
see
getting
citations
he's
not
that
tree
company,
the
contractor
with
me
to
get
a
permit
and
didn't
do
it
and
I
paid
his
25
000
fine
he's
not
that
guy
he's
a
good
guy,
but
he
makes
the
mistake
just
like
the
county
did
now.
AD
The
reality
of
the
situation
is:
if
somebody
had
built
two
houses
or
one
house
or
three
houses
on
those
islands,
they
may
have
been
before
you,
as
can
be
a
short-term
rental
without
any
covenants
you
probably
would
have
had
to
give
it
to
them.
If
they'd
come
to
you
and
said
we're
going
to
not
build
three
houses,
but
we're
going
to
build
this,
you
would
have
probably
given
it
to
them,
not
necessarily
you
but
your
predecessors.
AD
AD
Go
look
at
the
island,
see
what
you
think.
The
first
time
I
met
mike
was
on
the
board
of
the
port
royal
sound
foundation,
which
I've
been
on
for
about
10
years.
When
I
first
met
him,
he
seemed
like
exactly
the
kind
of
guy
that
was
telling
you
the
straight
facts
about
what
he
was
doing.
So
my
response
was
to
go.
Take
a
kayak
tour
with
one
of
his
guides
to
see
how
that
worked
out.
One
minute
that
guy
did
a
great
job.
Didn't
exaggerate.
Didn't
hype,
didn't
do
anything
afterwards
over.
AD
I
stopped
and
said:
how
did
you
learn
about
this?
Oh,
so
we
have
to
know
this
before
we
can
go
out.
They
won't.
Let
us
go
out.
If
we
don't
know
what
we're
talking
about.
This
fella
has
been
actively
involved
in
protecting
105
acres
onto
chelsea,
creek
from
200
and
some
odd
houses.
Does
that
sound
like
somebody?
That's
just
profiteering.
AD
10
of
those
acres
are
reserved
for
a
research
facility
for
the
port
royal
sound
foundation
to
research.
These
very
waters,
and
these
very
needs
that
we're
talking
about
here
find
a
way
if
we
can
to
solve
this
problem.
If
you
can't
do
it,
let's
do
it.
Some
other
way
through
the
county
to
get
a
rule
change.
This
is
the
right
thing
to
do
in
the
right
place
for
the
right
people
at
the
right
time.
Thank
you
for
your
consideration.
Thank
you.
AE
I've
worked
for
outside
for
20
years
and
most
of
those
years
as
director
of
guide
education,
we
spend
a
lot
of
time
and
energy
training.
Everybody
who
works
in
the
field,
as
well
as
those
people
who
work
for
the
company
that
maybe
never
lead
tours
in
understanding
the
culture
of
outside,
which
is
one
of
just
sustainability,
excellence
teamwork,
but
at
the
core
of
all.
That
is
a
clear
understanding
of
the
importance
of
the
salt
marsh,
not
only
in
our
local
area
but
across
the
country
and
globally.
AE
When
you
come,
and
I
hope
you
will
to
page
island,
you
will
be
accompanied
by
some
of
the
finest
interpretive
guides
that
you
can
find
in
the
low
country,
and
while
I
like
to
credit
myself
for
teaching
them,
it's
a
team
of
people
that
really
support
us
in
our
excellence
in
training,
people
and
teaching
people
about
this
fabulous
place
that
we
have
page
island,
I'm
a
firm
believer
not
only
in
teaching
future
guides,
but
in
raising
my
own
children
and
accompanying
them
on
field
trips.
That
we
learn
best
through
experience.
AE
I
can
intellectually
tell
you
about
the
importance
of
the
oysters,
the
tide,
the
grass,
the
fluff
mud,
but
if
it's,
if
it
remains
in
your
head
and
it's
only
in
an
intellectual
exercise,
you
really
have
no
opportunity
to
really
understand
it.
You
have
to
do
it
and
in
order
to
do
it,
you
come
to
page
island,
I'm
a
master
naturalist,
I'm
a
master
gardener,
I'm
also
a
birder,
and
I
travel
the
world
in
good
times.
AE
A
F
I
find
it
very
challenging
of
the
mission
and
the
activities
that
happen
on
page
island
are
wonderful.
Nobody
doubts
that,
but
also
what
is
the
inadvertent
message
that
is
being
taught.
Is
that
you're
to
build
the
buildings
right
up
on
the
edge
of
the
marsh
right
up
on
the
critical
line
when
the
best
practices
is
to
move
them
back,
and
I
find
that
incongruency
that
weakens
the
mission
of
page
island
when
they're
doing
the
very
thing,
that's
the
worst
thing
worst
place
to
put
your
building
and
not
it's
it's
a
challenge.
B
C
Mr
chairman,
I'd
just
like
to
say,
I
think
everybody
here
knows
who
mr
dean
moss
is
he's
done
a
lot
of
great
and
wonderful
things
for
beaufort
county
and
for
him
to
support
this
I'll.
Tell
you
right
now.
He
changed
my
mind
and
I
thank
you
for
it
and
by
the
way,
sir,
I
was
at
one
of
them
fish
camps
this
week.
G
Mr
taylor,
what.
P
The
buildings
we
built
were
strictly
to
have
the
minimal
use.
Our
goal
was
always
to
be
minimal,
minimal,
minimal
and
the
minimal
is
a
place
you
can
go
when
it
rains
to
have
a
simple
roof
over
your
head
in
a
place
that
you
can
go
to
the
bathroom
where
the
waste
is
sustainably
controlled
and
a
place
to
stick
a
fishing
rod
and
a
couple
other
things
that
need
to
be
stored
out
of
the
elements.
And
that
really
is
it,
and
I
think
if
you
come
look
at
the
islands
and
even
get
any
environmentalist
or
naturalists.
P
Again,
we
the
great
when
we
built
them
with
the
idea
of
really
being
in
harmony
with
the
landscape
and
with
the
nature
we
put
them
in
what
we
considered
and
I
considered
really
the
best
location
for
him,
and
that
was
with
you
shed
and
with
harmony
and
the
impact
of
how
people
moved
around
the
islands
and
how
and
also
in
not
cutting
vegetation.
If
you
look
at
these
pole
sheds
simply
a
roof,
we
didn't
move
any
trees.
F
So
what
do
you?
How
do
you
address
when
a
visitor
to
the
island
that
maybe
just
bought
a
lot
of
built-in
head
and
said
you
know
my
architect
said
that
I
have
to
build
well,
let's
say
they're
in
beaver
county,
because
it's
100
feet
now
I
have
to
build.
F
F
O
Mr
bromley,
I
wanted
to
address,
please
kathleen
duncan.
I
wanted
to
address
your
question
it
was
about.
Could
you
do
this
facility
without
offer
these
opportunities
without
the
facilities?
It's
my
understanding
that
the
community
development
code
allows
for
those
basic
facilities,
so,
even
if
they
were,
if
they
were
going
to
use
this
as
an
ecotourism,
those
would
be
a
that
would
be
a
component
that
would
be
typically
allowed
as
per
the
code,
but
just.
O
The
comment
I
was
I
wanted
to
make
or
address
with
you
was
the
one
of:
could
you
not
relocate
this
these
buildings?
O
One
of
the
things
that
I
you
know-
and
mr
overton
alluded
to
this-
is
that
these
were
built
where
around
the
trees
and
when
you
apply
that
setback,
even
if
you're,
applying
that
50-foot
setback,
what
you're
having
to
do
is
you're
forcing
everything
into
the
center
and
you're
you're,
making
that
more
condensed,
which
means
that
you're
going
to
then
actually
have
to
remove
trees
and
have
additional
impact
on
the
site
to
be
able
to
accommodate
the
uses
that
they're
currently
offering.
So
in
my
mind,
this
is
actually
to
ask
them
to
move.
O
C
Chairman,
oh
my
just
glad,
I
think
mr
stewart
brought
up
a
good
point
too.
Could
you
imagine
if
there
was
three
houses
on
island?
C
A
A
I
was
along
those
same
lines
if
we
were
to
require
him
to
remove
those
and
minimize
the
encroachment,
what
type
of
damage
will
that
create
as
far
as
trying
to
move
those
structures
as
far
as
trees,
that
may
have
to
be
moved
to
to
to
minute
to
to
minimize
the
encroachment
I
mean
quite
naturally,
they
will
need
this.
Property
will
need
a
variance,
regardless
of
where
you
put
it.
A
A
I
mean
it's
obvious.
It
is
doing
good
to
the
community.
Obviously
he
picked
I
mean
I
wouldn't
say
he
picked
his
people,
but
you
know,
based
on
the
testimony,
it's
it's
doing
pretty
good.
It's
doing
more
good
for
this
community
is
as
far
as
what
I
can
see.
Am
I
inclined
to
grinding
this.
I
would
I
would
have
to
lean
toward
you
know.
A
You
know
toward
granting
this
variance,
but
you
know
that's
that's
just
me,
but
it's
up
to
the
board
and
you
know
the
recommendations
and
how
we
go
about
doing
this
because
I
think
it'll
be
more
damaged
if
we
were
to
recommend
moving
some
of
these
structures
to
me.
G
Well,
my
question
then,
just
before
that
you
mentioned
the
staff
that
there
was
y'all
previously
been
doing,
that
with
certain
pavilions.
Is
that
correct.
A
S
S
So
I'm
I'm
saying
that
even
smaller
buildings
still
have
to
adhere.
In
addition
to,
you
know,
as
I
think,
as
jane
mentioned,
a
private
property
owner
who
is
on
the
water
cannot
have
structures
in
that
critical
line
buffer,
but
you
know
I
think,
as
as
I
mentioned
before,
we
recognize
it's
impossible.
Probably
you
know,
given
the
size
of
these
islands
and
applying
that
setback,
to
be
able
to
develop
without
some
sort
of
variance,
but
as
staff
we
look
at.
Q
Mr
green
just
want
you
all
to
remember
that
you
have
the
right
to
impose
conditions
to
further
protect
the
environment
here.
So
let's
say,
if
you
were
worried
about
houses
being
built
out
here.
Eventually,
you
all
could
say
we're
going
to
grant
this
variance
with
the
provision
that
no
additional
structures
can
be
permitted.
No
separate
permits
can
be
issued
for
the
property
it
has
to
be
used.
Q
The
location
of
the
structures
are
approved
as
long
as
they're
used
in
their
current
state
and
that
no
additional
improvements
are
made,
cannot
be
enclosed
or
anything
like
that.
So
you
all
have
the
right
to
put
those
types
of
conditions
on
the
approval
in
order
to
ensure
that
you
are
protecting
the
environmental
sensitivity
of
the
island
to
the
degree
necessary.
F
A
A
F
I
I
moved
that
we
grant
the
variance,
but
it's
limited
to
the
existing
buildings
on
the
island
and
the
condition.
Not
they
can
be
repaired,
obviously,
but
they
cannot
be
altered
or
added
to
so
they
can't
be
enclosed.
F
They
have
to
capture
all
the
rain
water
on
the
buildings
and
no
additional
buildings
can
be
built
on
the
island.
A
second.
