A
Bring
our
finance
Administration
Economic
Development
Committee
to
order
is
Monday
March
20th
and
everyone
can
stand
from
the
Pledge
of
Allegiance.
A
A
Tabernick
was
there
a
second
I'll?
Second,
thank
you
and
any
discussion
see
no
discussion.
Is
there
any
objection
to
our
agenda
and
again,
we've
got
a
large
agenda
today,
so
we
will
go
through
as
as
easily
and
as
best
we
can
again.
We
decided
to
make
do
this
and
that
way
we
can
get
through
this
for
us
and
not
break
this
up
into
a
bunch
of
days.
A
So,
and
we
appreciate
your
patience
on
this
and
again
we're
here
to
to
listen
and
to
have
you
all
have
plenty
of
time
to
present
I'd
ask
for
the
approval
of
the
minutes
from
January
17th.
C
A
Objection
to
the
approval
of
the
minutes,
seeing
no
objection,
we
will
move
on
then
to
our
citizens
comment
and
is
there
anyone
online?
Has
anyone
signed
up
for
our
our
citizens
comments
all
right,
let's
move
on
then
so
we're
gonna
try
to
get
some
business
of
the
committee
out
of
out
of
the
way.
A
First,
so,
first
of
all,
number
seven
on
our
agenda
items
recommend
approval
to
proceed
with
purchase
of
furniture,
fixtures
and
equipment
from
FIS
office,
a
state
contract
vendor
for
probate
court
offices
in
Beaufort
and
Hilton,
Head
and
so
Larson.
How.
D
D
The
main
Courthouse
directly
behind
us
and
the
Hilton
Head
offices,
this
part
of
the
contract
is,
is
simply
the
purchase
of
the
fixtures,
the
furniture
and
storage
cabinets
Etc
that
they're
purchasing
fsis
on
state
contracts,
meaning
we
did
not
have
to
bid
this
out.
We
were
able
to
go
to
the
state
contract
pricing
for
the
furniture,
just
outfit
all
offices,
it's
about
14
offices
with
about
20
or
so
people.
Some
people
are
doubled
up
in
offices.
Grand
total
for
that
furniture
order
is
234.
459.47
staff
is
recommended
approval.
A
All
right
and
if
I
could,
if
I
could
first
ask
them
to
open
up
for
any
other
questions
is
obviously
we're
replacing
other
furniture
that
they
had
previously.
Yes,.
D
Sir,
their
existing
furniture
is
old
and
dated
some
of
it's
in
poor
shape
and
it's
just
not
very
functional
for
them.
A
lot
of
their
office
furniture
is
built
in
and
again
not
working.
It's
not
suiting
their
needs
so
part
of
the
renovation
that
you're
not
seeing
on
this.
This
is
just
the
furniture
only
is
we
are
going
in
and
demoing
out
the
existing
built-in
furniture
and
replacing
some
of
these
old
steel
desks
that
have
fallen
apart.
Rusted
have
Jagged
edges
that
are
snagging
clothes,
that
sort
of
thing
and
we're
replacing
the
carpet.
D
D
F
A
A
All
right
any
any
questions
from
Council,
yes,
mrabernacle.
C
D
One
of
those
three
things:
if
it's
salvageable,
we'll
put
it
in
the
warehouse
for
another
department
to
use
okay,
if
it's
in
poor
condition-
and
it
has
a
salvageable
value-
there's
like
I
said
these
are
metal
desks,
there's
a
lot
of
metal.
We
can
actually
take
those
out
to
Shanklin
Road
and
put
them
in
the
white
goods
pile
so
that
that
metal
can
be
recycled
with
most.
H
D
C
D
C
D
A
And
this
will
go
before
Council
for
for
approval,
so
any
other
questions.
D
The
first
time
I
have
one
other
department.
That's
made
a
request
for
next
fiscal
year.
There's
been
other
departments
that
have
had
upgrades
before
now,
it's
on
a
it's
on
a
request
basis
and
as
funds
become
available.
Okay,
thank
you.
J
Is
this
on
Union
Cemetery
on
Hilton
Head
right
at
the
corner
of
278
Union
Cemetery,
the
Hilton
Head
Office.
D
A
Right,
thank
you
and
Miss
tabernac
and
then
miss
McKellen
was
the
second
any
discussion.
Seeing
no
discussion
is
there
any
objection
to
us
moving
this
to
council
for
approval,
seeing
no
objection.
This
has
been
approved.
A
Thank
you
and
I.
Think
Mr
Larson
you're
up
here
again
recommend
approval
to
award
musco
the
contract
for
field
lighting
at
Corson,
Tate
Park
on
ladies
Island,
and
that's
number
eight
on
our
agenda.
D
Chairman
you
pretty
much
covered
it.
I
will
add
that
musco
is
a
it's
a
specific
brand
of
light
and
we
use
the
musco
system
on
all
of
our
other
Parks.
These
aren't
just
lights
in
the
21st
century,
lights
are
actually
computerized
and
ran
by
computer,
and
so
there
is
a
computer
software
system.
That
is
a
remotely
Act.
D
What's
the
word
you
can
meet,
you
can
do
it
remotely.
The
word
is
escape
my
head
for
some
reason,
you
control
these
remotely
using
iPhones
iPads
that
sort
of
thing,
so
the
musco
system
is
what's
currently
on
all
of
our
other
Parks.
That's
why
we're
going
with
must
go
on
this
park,
so
this
price
is
799.
325
is
the
total
to
do
the
park.
There's
a
map,
including
your
packet,
it's
really
four
Fields!
D
So
that's
a
big
number,
but
when
you
divide
that
by
four
multi-purpose
fields,
that
number
starts
to
come
down
a
little
bit
per
field
and
it
is
a
sole
source
purchase
because
of
the
musco
system,
and
we
have
that
paperwork
floating
through
finance
department
now,
and
this
will
also
come
to
council
full
Council
next
week.
That's
recommends
approval
any.
I
I
understand
the
computerized,
maybe
with
that
field
out
there
is
right
around
the
corner
from
my
house.
800
000
still
seems
like
a
lot
for
for
lighting
of
that
field
out
there
is
it
so
are.
D
Company
yes,
integrate
with
their
system,
no
okay,
proprietary
software,
and
so
it's
it's
tough
I
mean
they.
You
go
with
the
system
and
you
stay
with
that
system.
It's
kind
of
like
cell
phones
and
other
different
types
of
products,
and
it
really
I
know
it
so
I
said
that's.
Why
I
wanted
to
point
out?
It's
four
Fields.
It
seems
like
a
lot
of
money,
but
that's
what
lightings
cost
these
days.
D
A
All
right,
any
other
questions
for
Mr
Larson,
see
no
questions
can
I
have
a
motion
to
move
this
to
council
for
a
vote.
L
A
And
then
I
think
Mr
Dawson
had
the
the
second
all
right.
Any
more
discussion,
no
discussion.
Is
there
any
objection
to
us
moving
us
forward?
Seeing
no
objection,
we
will
then
prove
this.
This
has
been
approved
without
a
objection
and
we'll
move
to
Council.
A
Thank
you
good
day.
Thank
you.
Mr
Larson
and
as
we
move
on
then
number
nine
on
our
agenda
is
recommend
approval
of
resolution
to
accept
a
grant
from
the
South
Carolina
Department
of
Agriculture
in
the
amount
of
fifty
thousand
dollars
for
the
combined
projects
of
project
packet
and
project
lawn
and.
A
J
M
Appreciate
it
I
believe
this
is
a
a
precautionary
measure
or
just
Fallen
protocol.
These
are
flow
through
grants,
so
the
Department
of
Agriculture
in
this
case
is
looking
at
the
materials
that
are
going
to
be
used
at
the
bank,
Brewery
or
side
hustle
Brewery,
so
they're,
given
a
grant.
The
grant
flows
through
the
county
and
the
county
will
give
it
to
the
company,
but
because
it
funnels
through
the
county
staff,
thought
that
it
would
be.
N
M
A
All
right
great
any
questions
for
Mr
O'toole
I
do
Tabernacle.
M
One
is
at
the
on
Pope
Avenue
Hilton
Head
it'll,
be
the
former
Bank
of
America
it'll.
B
M
A
a
a
brewery
there,
roughly
a
15
million
dollar
investment
and
some
26
jobs
and
then
pack
it
comp
a
similar
investment,
I
believe
13
million
dollars,
or
vice
versa,
but
combined
about
a
28
million
dollar
investment
and
they'll
be
using
South
Carolina
products.
So
that's
why
the
department
of
AG
is
offering
this
grant
to
him.
So.
C
M
Something
they
have
going
on
there.
We
are
not
investing
or
doing
any
Economic
Development
around
cryptocurrency.
A
A
I
wasn't
sure
if
the
dollar
amount,
whether
I
needed
to
go
to
council,
but
do
I
have
a
a
motion.
Thank
you,
Mr
O'toole.
Would
you
have
a
motion
to
accept
the
or
fifty
thousand
dollar
Grant,
so
Lakers
Dawson?
Is
there
a
second.
A
All
right,
thank
you,
Miss
Brown,
any
discussion.
Seeing
no
discussion
is
there
any
objection
to
us
approving
this
and
moving
this
to
council.
Seeing
no
objection
this
has
been
approved,
it
will
move
then
to
council
and
our
before
we
get
into
the
presentations.
Our
final
thing
today
on
County
Business
is
recommendation:
approval
of
the
appointment
of
Joshua
Gibson
to
the
city
of
beaufort's
Metropolitan
Planning
Commission.
As
the
council
appointee.
A
Great,
is
there
any
see,
no
more
discussions,
any
objection
to
this,
seeing
no
objection.
This
has
been
approved
all
right
and
let's
get
on
to
why
we
have
a
little
bit
more
items.
Oh
11.,
sorry.
A
A
Was
on
motion
Mr,
Glover
and
I
think
Mr
stabrick.
A
Trying
to
run
through
things
too
quickly
here
all
right,
and
that
gets
us
to
why
we
have
so
many
people
in
the
room.
Today
is
our
fiscal
year.
2024
budget
funding,
requests
and
again
like
to
come
up,
want
to
give
you
as
much
time
as
you
need.
However,
we
say
that,
but
would
like
to
have
you
keep
it
as
close
as
you
can
to
10
minutes
again,
I
might
have
some
questions
afterwards
from
Council
and
again
we
appreciate
everyone
coming
and
being
here
today.
A
So
today
we
will
start
off
on
our
list
with
the
Beaufort
Jasper
Hampton
Comprehensive
Health,
and
we
have
miss
our
Dr
faith,
pulkey
and
Miss
Dr
Polk,
if
you
start
off
just
by
giving
us
just
a
real,
quick
30.
Second
background
of
you
and
yourself
and
kind
of
your
your
your
resume
and
then
go
into
your
presentation.
R
Supporting
me
in
case
we
have
any
glitches,
but
I
am
Dr.
Faithful,
K
I
am
the
chief
executive
officer
for
Beaufort
Jasper
Hampton
conference
Health
Services
I've,
been
in
the
area
for
20
years,
I
started
out
as
a
staff
pediatrician
and
have
had
to
be
the
honor
of
being
selected
by
our
Board
of
Trustees
as
our
next
CEO,
which
you
all
know,
Roland
Gardner
who's
there
for
42
years.
So
I
have
had
the
opportunity
to
be
mentored
by
him
and
I'm.
Here
presenting
to
you
today.
R
How
right
so
I
know
we
have
some
some
new
council
members,
so
there's
a
little
bit
of
background
that
I'll
give
you.
This
is
our
mission
to
provide
quality,
affordable,
accessible
and
comprehensive
care
to
the
citizens
of
the
low
country
people
and
we
strive
to
provide
the
most
Comprehensive
Health
Care
delivery
system,
which
I
will
describe
for
you
a
little
bit
of
background
about
you
for
Jasper,
we
were
just
Buford
Jasper
Comprehensive,
Health
Services
organized
in
1969,
but
saw
our
first.
R
F
R
There
were
children
who
had
worms
on,
say,
hell
enough
and
so
folks
came
together.
The
community
came
together,
Tom
Barnwell
being
one
of
them.
Our
first
CEO
and
many
others
to
get
potable
water
dig
Wells
to
build
privies
to
ensure
that
the
people
were
helping
the
community
and
that
has
grown
over
the
years.
F
R
Since
the
beginning,
we
have
had
agricultural
worker
funding,
so
in
1973,
so
taking
care
of
Farm
Workers
has
been
a
part
of
our
mission
since
the
beginning
and
then
over
time
we
in
74
were
under
Federal
mandates
when
they
started
organizing
community
health
centers
around
the
country,
and
we
were
you
know
less
reliant
on
federal
funds,
but
increasing.
R
Local
government
and
other
Grant
services,
and
then
in
1999
we
added
Hampton
County,
so
we
are
Buford,
jazz
or
Hampton
conference
call
services.
So
we
are
a
fairly
qualified,
Community
Health
Center.
We
are
a
private,
not-for-profit
organization
and
have
mandatory
program
requirements
almost
100
program
requirements
per
person
in
order
to
have
that
designation,
the
most
important
of
which
is
that
we
will
provide
a
sliding
t-scale
based
on
income,
and
we
are
not
allowed
to
turn
anyone
away
regardless
of
their
ability
to
pay.
Now
we're
not
a
free
clinic.
R
So
we
do
expect
people
to
pay
something,
but
we
will
not
turn
them
away
if
they
can't
pay
the
the
C
related
to
this
line
of
scale
fee.
The
other
thing
that
is
important
is
that
51
of
our
board,
so
we
have
a
Board
of
Trustees
and
51
must
be
patient,
so
they
must
use
the
health
center
services
and
that
is
unique
among
fairly
qualified
Health
Centers.
We
also
require
to
provide
all
measure
of
services,
Primary,
Health,
Care,
Services
children
up
to
geriatrics,
Labs,
Radiology,
preventive
health
and
Pharmacy.
R
Those
are
all
required
services
and
then
we're
also
expected
to
provide
interpretation
of
the
limited
English-speaking
individuals.
We've
been
here.
53
years
we
have
10
Center
locations,
plus
our
admin
offices,
10,
school-based
Health,
Center
locations
and
then
three
mobile
units
and,
as
I
said,
we
provide
a
variety
of
services
from
Pediatrics,
OB,
GYN,
Adult,
Medicine,
dental
services
and
we'll
talk
more
about
that
later
and
then
all
the
other
services.
F
R
Also
limits
the
medications,
so
in
2022
we
saw
15
000
patients
with
over
2
000
annual
business
2019,
the
last
normal
year,
where
we
were
up
to
17
000
patients
that
dipped
down
to
12
000
in
2020.
with
code
people
are
coming
in
so
we're
slowly
getting
back
up
here.
I
I
expect
us
to
be
closer
to
17
000
in
the
next
year,
or
so
we
have
270
employees,
and
then
our
fiscal
year
budget
was
26
million
711
000..
R
R
These
are
the
sites
in
Beaufort
County,
although
we
have
10
locations
in
the
three
County
area.
These
are
the
sites
in
Beaver
County,
so
Sheldon,
St,
Helena,
OT
site
also
known
as
Chelsea.
Some
people
would
say,
and
then
three
at
Port
ruins
so
Port
Royal
Medical
Center
is
the
large
area
for
OB
GYN.
We
just
added
this
past
year
and
then
we
have
a
same-day
Clinic
and
then
in
six
schools
in
Beaufort,
County,
all
the
well
branches,
Davis
St,
Helen
and
Broad
River,
and
then
we
have
three
mobile
units.
R
One
is
the
a
school-based
mobile
unit
which
has
a
medical
and
dental
side.
That
is
our
glass
called
hope.
Then
we
have
a
community
mobile
unit,
our
newer
unit,
which
has
medical,
behavioral,
health
or
counseling
side,
and
then
we
also
can
do
Telehealth
clinical
unit
and
then
there's
the
Ronald
McDonald
unit,
which
is
two
chicken
dental
chairs.
That
one
is
not
functioning
very
well
at
this
point
and
we're
talking
with
Ronald
McDonald
and
also
the
county
about
how
what's
the
best
way
to
get
that
back.
Functional
happy
answer,
questions
about
that.
R
R
So
this
shows
our
unreimbursed
charges
for
patients
who
had
no
insurance,
so
our
uninsured
patients,
for
whom
we
do
have
a
sliding
so
that
2.9
Million
is
what's
left
after
we've
collected
some
ease
for
them
and
we
collected
about
eight
hundred
thousand
dollars
this
past
year.
All
of
these
charges
generated
with
all
of
the
the
things
you
see
there,
including
a
Subs
feed
to
labcor.
We
actually
pay
LabCorp
personally,
based
on
the
society
B
scale
and.
P
R
This
is
something
called
enabling
services,
so
we,
in
addition
to
those
required
Services
there
are
other
services
that
the
federal
government
would
like
us
to
provide
so
enabling
services
so
Transportation.
So
we
do
have
transportation
bands
that
we
will
pick
people
up
from
their
homes
and
actually
bring
them
to
our
location
during
covet.
We
suspended
that
sum,
but
we've
been
back
on
the
road
in
the
last
in
the
last
year,
or
so.
R
R
So
some
of
the
value
and
impact
and
I
sent
this
we're
going
to
send
this
PowerPoint
because
there's
a
lot
more
information
than
I
can
present
here
today
to
you
all
that
has
some
more
information
about
it,
but
we
do
provide
quality,
comprehensive
care
at
a
lower
cost,
and
this
shows
some
of
the
savings
to
the
system,
so
24
lower
cost
for
Health
Center,
and
this
is
specifically
from
here
for
Jasper
for
for
health,
centered,
Medicaid
patients
and
savings.
The
overall
system
is
22
million
dollars.
R
We
also
provide
434
jobs
about
256
for
the
health
center
jobs,
but
then
other
jobs
in.
R
And
the
impact
is
51
million,
a
few
accomplishments.
Of
course
coven.
You
know
you
all
saw
us.
We
were
out
there
with
everyone
else
trying
to
take
care
of
the
patients.
We
were
able
to
administer
almost
18
000
covert
vaccines.
62
percent
of
those
were
given
to
be
for
County
residents,
of
which
60
were
African-American
and
19
were
Hispanic
or
Latino,
distributed
a
bunch
of
test
kits
in
95
masks
and
we're
still
giving
coveted
vaccines
and
boosters
for
anyone
at
any
age.
They
can
come
to
our
assignment
BC
other
things.
R
So
our
remote
patient
monitoring
program
and
then
we
also
expanded
our
community
health,
and
then
we
were
able
to
maintain
our
quality
here,
reduce
the
number
of
diabetics
with
uncontrolled
diabetes
and
the
number
of
people
who
had
good
blood
pressure,
control,
increase
that-
and
this
is
a
chart
that
basically
zero
again
on
the
fact
that
we've
been
able
to
do
that
over
time
had
a
little
blip
in
2020,
but
have
really
been
able
to
control
diabetes
and
hypertension.
R
And
some
of
that
is
because
of
the
way
we
provide
care.
We
have
a
comprehensive
diabetes
program
with
dietitians
again
those
community
health
workers.
We
do
case
management,
dental
care,
we
have
clinical
pharmacists
who
help
us
provide
that
care
and
we
were
able
to
get
our
numbers
down
since
2018.
We
had
a
huge
amount
of
people
whose
who
were
uncontrolled
and
in
the
last
four
years
and
been
able
to
get
that
down
to
less
than
before,
and
it's
above
the
network
average
for
other
health
centers
in
the
state.
We.
K
R
So
for
the
upcoming
year,
we
want
to
reach
an
additional
200
people
in
that
remote
patient
monitoring
program,
expand
it
to
patients
with
diabetes
and
then
also
add
more
community
health
workers.
These
folks
are
really
the
key.
It's
how
we
started.
You
know
a
part
of
the
way
we
were
a
rat
able
to
eradicate
one,
so
we
had
nurses
that
went
out
to
people's
homes
and
actually
gave
patients
medication.
So
these
folks
are
more
lay.
F
R
So
this
is
our
request,
so
we
previously
were
funded
at
852
775.
So
a
request
this
year
is
for
1
million
and
fifty
thousand
dollars.
This
would
cover
the
Personnel
costs
that
were
increased.
F
K
R
Fiscal
year
22
to
23.
I
did
not
put
our
projected
24
in.
This
is
just
what
I
already
know
where
the
costs
previously,
so
this
would
help
ensure
that
our
uninsured
and
Indigent
patients
continue
receiving
the
same
length
of
care,
and
that
is
about
it.
There
is
some
additional
information
that
is
there
that
goes
more
in
depth
on
our
sites
and
what
services
we
have
so
I'll
be
happy
to
answer
any
questions.
A
Thank
you,
Dr
poke
and
I'm,
always
amazed
that
your
budget,
that
26
million
dollars
and
then
more
importantly,
you
employ
434
people
which
is
pretty
incredible.
Is
there
any
questions
from
Council.
K
R
Thank
you
for
that.
Yes,
so
at
our
St
Helena
site,
which
actually
is
one
of
our
larger
sites,
has
Medical
Dental
a
pharmacy
there.
We
provide
services
for
our
migrant
and
seasonal
agricultural
workers
year
round,
but
what's
really
special
is
that
during
the
the
picking
season,
the
harvesting
season
from
late
May
to
July,
we
provide
a
nightclub.
So
when
the
Farm
Workers
get
off
from
work,
we
start
at
about
7
pm
and
we
go
until
sometimes
it's
12
o'clock,
one
o'clock
in
the
morning
providing
dental
medical
really
all
the
services
we
have.
R
We
do
nutrition
services.
We
even
did
Telehealth
last
year,
the
last
few
years
during
covid
we
did
an
outside
Clinic
just
to
keep
safe,
but
we
do
provide
the
services
year-round
and
do
some
night
clinic
some
other
night
clinics
had
other
times
planting
season
also
the
times
when
you're,
harvesting
or
turning
the
ground
open.
Q
Dr
Paul
guy,
you
indicated
that
you
service,
Buford,
Jasper
and
Hampton.
Will
there
be
a
request
from
the
other
two
counties
for
funding?
Yes,
we
will.
We
will
request.
S
Good
presentation,
the
wealth
of
the
you
you'll,
Health
Care,
is
overwhelming,
and
what
all
you
do,
the
request
you're
making
is
more
or
less
for
operational
funds
I'm.
Assuming
are
there
any
additional
one-time
projects
that
may
be
out
there?
That
could
you
you
could
benefit
from
for
an
example.
They
will
know
that
you've
been
trying
to
expand
for
additional
space.
R
Yes,
sir,
so
a
few
things
one
is,
you
know
we
do
not
get
any
really
very
little
Capital
funds
from
you
know
federal
government
and
so
any
Capital.
We
have
to
raise.
So
you
know,
we've
been
here
a
long
time,
so
a
lot
of
our
sites
are
older
and
could
use
some
repair.
We
are
expanding
out
in
our
OBT
sites
and
plan
to
add
more
medical
units
as
well
as
dental
chairs.
R
My
my
dental
director's
dream
is
to
have
a
freestanding
Dental
site
in
my
location
too,
but
at
least
for
now
it
really
has
to
do
with
repair
and
expansion
at
some
of
our
sites,
our
St
Helena
site
and
also
at
our
opt
site.
A
Thank
you
any
other
questions
for
Dr
polkay,
Dr
puke.
Thank
you
for
coming
out
wonderful
presentation,
we're
we're
glad
you're
you're
with
us
here
and
and
again,
to
fill
some
big
shoes.
So
thank
you
so
much.
A
All
right,
let's
move
on
then
to
our
next
presentation
and
that's
with
the
Beaufort
Port
Royal
CVB,
and
that
is
Mr,
Rob,
Wells
and
same
thing:
Mr
Wells,
if
you
can
just
real
quick,
just
get
a
little
little
30-second
resume
of
of
your
background
and
then
right
into
your
presentation.
Yeah.
T
No
problem,
thank
you
very
much
for
having
me
the
day
of
Rob
Wells
I
serve
as
the
president
CEO
of
the
greater
Beaufort
Port
Royal
division
in
Business,
Bureau,
otherwise
known
as
visit
Beaufort
water
and
the
sea
Islands,
and
we
serve
as
one
of
two
of
your
designated
marketing
organizations
serving
Northern,
Beaufort
County.
N
T
Like
to
start
today,
as
we
go
into
kind
of
who
we
are
and
what
we
do,
our
funding
request
and
budget
as
we
submitted,
we
are
tied
to
kind
of
the
market
change
within
the
state,
Accommodations
Tax
collection
that
takes
place
in
the
unincorporated
portions
of
Northern,
Beaufort,
County,
unincorporated,
Beaufort
County
as
a
whole,
so
that
formula
is
is
set
aside
by
State
Statute
and
as
revenues
increase
to
the
to
the
county.
Those
are
distributed
through
that
that
formula,
which
of
which
we
receive
15
of
the
designated
30
percent
Hayes
you're.
T
Receive
a
hundred
fifty
thousand
dollars
in
local
accommodations,
that
is
a
local
ordinance,
and
that
is
a
flat
flat
number
that
has
been
that
number
for
at
least
a
decade
that
I've
been
here
as
well,
and
then
the
third
funding
stream
that
we
receive
is
through
State
Accommodations,
Tax.
N
T
Which
we've
become
before
that
you're
you're
appointed
a
tax
committee
and
go.
T
Those
were
three
funding
streams
that
are
tied.
They
vary
from
year
to
year,
but
they
are
associated
or
attached
to
the
total
revenues
received
within
the
state.
Excuse
me
within
the
County's,
a
tax
revenues
so
with
that
said,
I'm
going
to
try
to
get
back
into
the
10-minute
room
here,
just
a
little
bit.
I
know
we
submitted
that
information
here.
Real
real,
quick
recap
of
our
marketing
campaign
are
objective
is
to
create
a
visitor
demand
to
Northern
Beaufort
County.
T
That
is
our
role,
and
so
we
we
target
certain
key
areas
and
I'm
going
to
share
some
of
those
insights
with
you
guys
here
in
just
a
little
bit,
but
we
do
that
through
Emirate
ways,
paid
advertising,
public
relations,
social
media
website
generated,
hits
and
leads.
T
We
had
over
105
stories
placed
last
in
the
last
calendar
year
of
our
cycle.
Er.
F
T
That
is
placed
that
is
stories
that
we've
hosted
travel
writers
in
our
community
and
they've
gone
out
and
told
Their
audience
about
the
loveliness
of
our
area,
and
so
nine
million
dollars
is
not
the
most
we've
ever
seen
in
the
area,
but
pretty
substantial
with
the
number
one,
probably
being
the
South's
best
small
town
in
Southern,
Living
2022.,
just
that
came
out
in
2023
last.
Just
actually.
This.
T
Has
listed,
Beaufort
has
its
top
five
South,
smallest
town
in
in
the
U.S
in
the
state
of
South
Carolina,
so
pretty
cool
accolades
coming
in
for
Northern
Beaufort
County.
You
see
that
through
a
myriad
of
opportunities,
I've
shared
that
here
on
the
screen,
we
have
left
our
presentation
for
record.
You
guys
can
have
it
and
as
a
part
of
our
narrative,
something
that
we
do
is
I
want
to
share
with
you
guys
some
of
the
travel
insights
that
we
have
coming
up
for
this
year.
T
93
of
travel,
visitors
or
visitors
and
tenders,
as
we
call
them
people
who
intent
travel
93
said
they'll
travel
the
next
six
months.
Why
is
that
important?
While
I
tell
you
right
now?
Well,
because
in
Northern
Beaver
County,
the
unincorporated
portion,
the
revenue
stream
that
you're
going
to
see
coming
in
from
the
summer
months
happens
to
be
at
Fripp
and
Harvard
Hunting
Island
Lands
End
those
areas
in
the
unincorporated
portion.
T
It's
a
fusky
island,
prominent
location,
we're
going
to
see
we're
going
to
see
a
higher
number
of
visitors
or
stable
number
of
visitors
coming
into
the
area.
We
didn't
lose
anything
over
the
over
the
kind
of
the
reduced
fall
travel
numbers
that
we
saw.
We've
actually
seen
an
impact
there.
At
least
intent
is
up.
T
Well,
we've
tracked
those
from
July
of
2022,
that's
July
1
to
February
28th
of
this
year.
Revenues
and
unincorporated
Beaufort
County
are
up
over
20
percent
accommodation
revenues,
so
that
will
have
an
impact
on
your
atax
budget
from
the
state
and
hopefully,
if
accounted
for
correctly,
your
local
receipts
as
well.
T
So
I
just
want
to
make
sure
these
insights
are
kind
of
out
there.
As
you're
doing
your
budget
planning
we're
seeing
a
stabilizing
of
the
market,
but
we're
also
seeing
a
high
intent,
I
think
there's
a
post
made
in
a
recent
publication
that
indicated
that
South
Carolina
coast
has
seen
an
influx
of
travel
at
least
intent
somewhere
around
75
percent
interest
level
increase
over
the
last
four
years,
which
is
we're
seeing
that
replicated
in
our
overnight
collections
in
the
local
market.
T
Hey
what
does
we'll
both
do
this
real,
quick?
Okay?
Sorry
about
that!
That's,
okay,
good!
This
is
a
chart
that
shows
you
visitor
flow.
It
is
hard
to
see.
Let
me
help
you
from
left
to
right.
The
left
part
of
this
screen
is
going
to
show
you
kind
of
The
Boundary
Street.
We
we
monitor
regions
within
the
community
from
Boundary
Street
to
Hunting
Island
to
the
unincorporated
portions.
Just
to
give
us
an
idea
where
visitor
flows
are.
T
A
S
Mills.
Thank
you.
Yes,
sir.
You
you
mentioned
sites
in
the
northern
Beaufort
and
one
of
the
sites.
This
Blends.
F
In
tell
me.
T
F
I
I
One
thing
that's
come
up
regarding
the
cvbs:
what
are
we
doing
to
make
sure
that
we're
not
duplicating
the
advertising
from
another
from
another
organization
that
got
the
same?
A
tax
so
are
y'all,
coordinating
I
know
you
mentioned
that,
but
right.
B
T
Our
goal
is
to
work
with
those
recipients
in
Northern
Beaver
County,
to
maximize
the
reach
of
the
dollars
being
spent.
So
in
often
the
case,
we
will
work
with,
say,
let's
say
a
festival
and
we
we
work
with.
You
know
six
or
seven
different
festivals,
including
the
oyster
festival,
Shrimp
Festival,
ball
Festival
to
name
a
few,
and
we
will
ensure
that
we
are
not
duplicating
our
purchase
in
those
same
areas
that
we're
attracting.
We
may
use
different
techniques
in
those
markets
and
therefore
there
may
be
some
overlap,
but
we
will
not.
T
Q
A
Right
next
up,
Beaufort
Conservation
District.
C
A
A
I
didn't
mean
to
Beaufort
small
area,
Business
Development,
Center,
Mr,
Martin,
Goodman,
I'm
gonna,
try
to
stick
to
our
list
and
again
I
didn't
mean
to
cause
anxiety
for
anybody
over
there.
So.
U
Thank
you
and
thank
you
very
much
for
having
me
today,
Mr
chairman
and
council
members.
Thank
you
for
your
past
support
of
our
program
and
I'm
happy
to
be
here
today
to
tell
you
a
little
bit
about
what
we
do
and
some
of
the
accomplishments
that
we've
had
in
the
past
year
and
then
some
of
the
ones
that
have
come
out
as
a
result
of
the
last
couple
of
years.
Last
year
we
had
a
a
good
year
kind
of
normal.
U
There
are
the
Small
Business
Development
Center
has
two
offices
in
Beaufort.
One
office
is
located
at
the
Hilton
Head
Campus
of
the
University
of
South
Carolina
Beaufort
uscb.
My
office
is
located
at
the
historic
Beaufort
campus
and
there's
a
little
bit
of
background,
I've
owned
and
and
bought
and
sold
several
businesses
in
my
career
and
on
the
couple
my
wife
and
I
owned
a
couple
of
restaurants
here
in
Beaufort
a
few
years
back
and
fortunately
sold
them
before
the
recession
in
2008.
U
But
we
have
experience,
I've
been
with
the
Small
Business
Development
Center
here
in
Beaufort
for
almost
31
years,
so
I've
been
here
and
I've
worked
with
a
lot
of
the
businesses
that
are
existing
in
a
lot
of
the
businesses
that
have
started
over
the
years.
We
do
one-on-one
business
Consulting.
We
can
assist
with
people
who
are
in
the
preventure
OR
startup
stage,
and
we
also
work
with
those
existing
businesses.
Over
the
past
few
years
we
have
been
very
busy
with
Acquisitions.
U
We
have
been
had
a
lot
of
clients
referred
to
us
by
Banks,
where
their
customers
come
to
them
and
are
looking
and
looking
to
buy
an
existing
business
here
in
the
county,
and
we
help
them
with
the
loan
packages,
and
we
help
them
do
some
initial
analysis
of
the
business
they're
looking
at
buying
try
to
help
them
come
up
with
an
evaluation
that
they
can
get
comfortable
with
and
then
help
them
with
the
loan
package.
So
they
can
secure
financing
to
buy
the
business
we
I
think.
U
A
lot
of
that
is
because
a
lot
of
business
owners
that
were
getting
to
to
an
older
age
went
through
the
recession.
In
2007
and
eight
came
out
of
that,
our
business
was
going
to
be
okay
and
then
got
hit
again
in
2020
with
the
pandemic,
and
when
they
came
out
of
that
and
business
picked
up,
they
decided
that
was
it.
U
They
were
gonna,
they
were
going
to
sell
and-
and
you
know,
let
somebody
else
run
their
business
and
a
lot
of
them
did
that
last
year
we
saw
and
and
we
work
on
a
fiscal
year
so
when,
when
we
work
on
2022,
that
was
a
January
January
through
December,
Pat
and
I
saw
181
and
worked
with
181
clients.
Those
clients
created
23,
new
business
starts,
they
created
136
jobs
and
the
capital
infusion
both
in
loans
and
Equity
was
six
and
a
half
million
dollars.
U
We
are
an
economic
development
partner
along
we
work
with
John
and
and
Charlie
at
The,
Economic
Development
Corporation.
They
refer
clients
to
us
and
we
try
to
help
those
clients.
U
You
know
if
you
look
at
the
very
bottom,
with
136
jobs
created
at
the
per
capita
income,
52
763
dollars
that
creates
annual
Way
new
annual
wages
in
the
Beaufort
economy
of
over
seven
million
dollars.
So
our
clients
do
have
an
impact
on
the
economy.
U
One
of
the
things
that
I
think
is
most
notable
that
has
happened
over
the
past
two
years
was
in
20
2020.
We
all
know
the
pandemic.
Came
Upon
Us
businesses
had
to
close.
We
were
in
a
position
with
our
officers
at
the
University.
Once
the
University
closed,
we
immediately
packed
up
our
technology
and
we
moved
to
our
home
offices
and,
within
the
same
day,
we're
operational
from
home.
Those
were
some
long
and
hard
hours.
People
were
very
scared.
U
U
In
most
cases,
they
were
not
very
well
thought
out
when
they
were
first
introduced.
They
were.
There
was
a
lot
of
convoluted
requirements
that
got
changed
over
the
time.
So
what
happened
was
we
became
the
conduit
from
the
SBA
to
the
small
business
Community
to
try
to
help
them
understand
what
was
available
to
help
to
help
them
apply.
For
what
was
what
they
could
qualify
for
and
held.
U
Hands
I
listened
to
a
lot
of
folks
crying
it
was.
You
know
there
was
a
lot
of
stress
in
the
business
Community
back
then,
but
most
got
over
it
and,
with
the
help
of
the
government
assistance,
we're
able
to
find
the
financial
substance
to
keep
going
during
that
2020
and
2021
time
frame,
we
saw
and
and
met
with
clients
that
signed
up
to
be
us.
Now
we
talked
to
a
lot
of
people
just
on
the
phone
answered
questions,
but
those
clients
who
signed
up
that
we
assist
was
353
clients.
U
They
only
started
32
new
jobs,
which
is
recognizable
because
there
wasn't
much
economic
activity
going
on
during
those
two
periods.
We
did
help
those
folks
create
and
save
mostly
save
393
jobs,
and
then
the
capital
that
was
created
from
those
loans,
grants
and
so
forth,
was
over
24
million
dollars.
So
they
were
able
to
find
the
financing,
find
the
grants
find
the
money
to
keep
them
afloat
during
that
period
of
time,
and
we've
worked
hard
to
try
to
help
them
with
that
in
your
package,
you'll
see
our
our
most
annual.
U
Our
most
recent
annual
report,
I
just
want
to
point
out
to
you
on
page
18,
is
one
of
my
clients.
Rob
Vaughn
Rob
came
to
me
back
in
2018.
U
I
worked
with
him
to
purchase
the
Boston
Pharmacy
he
he
was
referred
to
me
from
a
bank
and
we
worked
through
the
process
of
getting
the
funding
and
he
was
able
to
secure
that
business
and
got
it
going
well
and
then,
of
course,
it
was
2019
by
the
time
he
did
the
acquisition
and
was
there
by
2020
covet
hit,
and
you
can
read
in
here
some
of
the
challenges
that
he
had
with
covid
and
keeping
his
business
afloat
and
being
able
to
supply
folks
in
in
the
Boston
area,
with
medical
supplies
that
they
needed,
and
so
we're
happy
to
I
was
happy
to
work
with
Vaughn
with
Rob
and
I.
U
Still
do
that
he's
a
good
businessman
and
it's
grown
his
business.
There
happy
to
answer
any
questions
you
have
I
know:
I've
worked
with
Mr
Glover,
a
good
bet
over
the
years
and
just
talked
to
him
Friday.
U
So
I'm
I'm
I'd,
just
like
to
point
out
to
you
that
your
your
constituents
are
our
clients
and
we're
there
to
help
our
services
are
free.
We
do
not
charge
for
our
services.
Everything
that
we
talk
about.
Everything
that
we
do
with
our
clients
is
confidential.
It's
protected
by
federal
law
and
their
information
will
always
be
confidential
until
they
allow
us
to
do
some
promotion
about
their
business
and
then
they
sign
off
that
that
we
can
put
that
data
out
into
the
public.
A
Could
any
any
questions
for
Mr
Goodman.
S
Thank
you
Mr
Goodman,
and
he
does
an
excellent
job.
Working
with
you
as
clientele,
and
the
good
part
about
you
is
that
you're,
free
and
right
and
I
always
gravitate
to
good
free
assistance.
A
Any
other
questions
to
Mr,
Goodwin,
Mr
Goodman,
you've
always
come
to
us
before
and
very
precise,
and
we
appreciate
that
and
again
thank
you
for
all
you
do
for
the
community.
Thank
you
again.
It's
something
I
think
sometimes
goes
people
don't
realize
what
you
do
and
how
much
you
do
for
the
community.
So,
okay,
thank
you
for,
for
all
the
small
businesses
that
are
out
there
so
well.
Thank.
S
A
All
right,
let's
move
on
then,
and
now
it's
your
turn
Denise,
so
Beaufort,
Conservation,
District.
V
V
V
My
name
is
Denise
parsik
and
I
have
with
me
Leslie
Meola
our
district
manager,
which
you'll
hear
more
about
us
soon.
V
I've
been
a
commissioner
for
35
years:
I
went
into
the
Conservation
District
Commission
because
they
assisted
me,
while
I
was
teaching
my
career
as
teacher
and
administrator
in
Beaufort,
County,
I
retired
in
06..
V
So
back
then
in
the
80s
I
was
the
Beaufort
County
Conservation
teacher
of
the
year,
which
ended
up
being
that
I
was
a
second
place,
National
Conservation
teacher
of
the
year.
So
the
Conservation
District
said
okay,
payback
time
and
it's
been
a
joy
ever
since
then
and
as
it
turns
out
I'm
the
longest
serving
female
commissioner
in
the
state
good.
V
So
yeah
just
gotta
keep
hanging
in
there
and
keep
it.
V
All
right,
so
our
mission
we've
been
in
Beaufort
County
for
over
75
years
we
started
with
the
Dust
Bowl,
when
Roosevelt
decided
that
we
needed
more
than
a
state
and
federal
agencies,
and
so
he
established
conservation
districts
so
that
every
county
in
the
United
States
is
also
a
Conservation
District.
V
We
are
supported
by
a
federal
agency
of
USDA,
in
particular
natural
resource
conservation
service.
They
don't
give
us
any
money,
but
they
give
a
lot
of
technical
support
which
we'll
talk
about
soon.
We
also
are
supported
through
the
Department
of
Natural
Resources
and
they
give
the
same
allotment
to
every
District
in
the
state,
and
we
were
just
really
pleased
recently.
We
went
from
fifteen
thousand
to
twenty
five
thousand,
so
we
get
the
same
from
the
state
as
from
Beaver
County.
That's
basically
our
budget.
V
All
right,
so,
in
addition,
I
just
wanted
to
you
know,
answer
the
question
of
about
our
current
funding
and
and
if
it's
sufficient,
but
we're
not
asking
for
any
more,
but
it
is
notable
that
the
25
000
we
get
from
you
guys
basically
covers
Staffing
Crystal
Lake
Park,
which
we
are
housed
and
pays
for
our
rent
there.
V
So
the
Third
Leg
of
our
little
stool,
so
to
speak
that
we
were
able
to
sit
on
top
of.
In
addition
to
the
federal
the
state
is
Beaufort
County
funding,
and
if
it
wasn't
for
Beaufort
County
funding,
we
would
not
be
able
to
bring
in
RCS
programs
in
here
and
some
of
you
that
have
been
around
a
while
know.
We
have
the
same
song
about
covid
and
less
things
being
done,
but
over
the
years
we've
brought
in
thousands
to
even
Millions
at
some
at
some
point,
so
the
USDA
provides
mostly
technical
assistance.
V
V
So
our
organization
chart
is
kind
of
pretty
simple.
We
have
a
Board
of
Commissioners
five
unpaid
Commissioners
who
I'll
introduce
you
to
in
the
next
slide.
We
have
a
district
manager,
part-time
and
I
know.
You
know,
I,
know
you're
thinking,
there's
a
mistake
in
the
salaries,
but
this
is
with.
This
is
with
an
increase
recently
when
we
got
our
state
funding
increased,
but
we
we
have
a
lot
of
passionate
people
who
believe
in
what
they're
doing
and
they'd
rather
do
that
than
work
at
Parkers.
V
Okay,
here's
our
Board
of
Commissioners-
and
you
can
tell
probably
by
the
picture
that
we
have
over
120
years
experience.
We
look
like
it,
don't
we
starting
from
the
right.
We
have
Claude
McLeod
he's
from
Seabrook
and
he
brings
to
us
his
experience
as
a
realtor
and
a
farmer
next
to
him
is
Alan
Earl
Ulmer
from
Bluffton
who
does
a
lot
with
Mining
and
major
recycling
things
like
the
things
you
don't
want
to
talk
about
the
things
you
don't
collect
at
home
and
between
the
two
of
those
gentlemen.
V
Over
the
years
they
have
contributed
large
number
of
acres
to
easements
for
Beaufort
County
of
Their
Own.
Oh
the
next
one
down
is
Danny
lasane
he's
a
cattle
farmer
up
in
the
Ace
Basin
area,
still
part
of
Beaufort
County
and
then
our
very
special
Luca
navinet
from
Saint
Helena
Island.
V
He
probably
dug
every
ditch
in
Beaufort
County
because
he
he
he
served
his
whole
working
career
with
public
works
and
he
could
probably
Point
any
one
of
them
out
to
you
and
he's
being
a
real
asset
to
us
now
as
well.
We
just
he
just
volunteered
to
join
the
DHEC
task
force
on
the
mining
issues,
in
particular
on
Saint
Helena
Island,
which
I
know
York
is
familiar
with
and
then
little
old
me
on
the
end.
V
I
already
told
you
about
myself,
and
three
of
them
are
elected
myself,
Luke
and
Danny,
and
the
two
on
the
right
are
appointed
by
the
governor
with
it,
with
advice
from
the
DNR
board.
V
They
do
that
all
over
Beaufort
County
it
doesn't
have
to
be
part
of
the
Farm
Bureau
farm
bill.
It
can
be
just
you
know,
a
citizen
calling
and
saying
they
need
assistance
underneath
that
pollinator
habitat
management.
As
you
know,
pollinators
are
the
big
word
now.
You
know
there's
a
lot,
that's
going
on
with
the
destruction
and
the
loss
of
pollinator,
so
we
do
a
lot
with
that.
The
upper
right,
the
seasonal
High
tunnel,
that
extends
the
growing
season
for
the
farmer,
even
the
small
farmer
and
then
below
that
tree
planting.
V
There
are
a
lot
of
a
lot
of
tree
farms
in
Beaufort,
County.
V
There's
a
few
other
things
we
have
been
with
that
together
for
Beaufort
County
team,
since
its
Inception
in
2006,
and
we
chair,
the
Coalition
for
water
quality
and
natural
resources,
keep
Beaufort
County
beautiful.
We
have
had
a
paid
or
or
a
commissioner
on
their
board
since
its
Inception,
the
local
work
group.
This
is
something
that
we
do
each
year
in
the
fall:
Where
We,
Gather
stakeholders,
Foresters,
firefighters,
landowners,
farmers.
F
F
V
So
that
we're
not
we're
not
dealing
with
you
know
abstract
things
for
our
own
area,
we're
dealing
with
very
specific
things
for
our
area
that
are
natural
priority
concerns
and
then
we're
very
grateful
for
the
Farm
Bureau.
They
support
us
with
our
Eco
Camp
with
lunches
and
scholarships.
V
My
favorite
part
is
a
conservation
and
education
Outreach,
so
we
in
2020
we
provided
122
programs
and
events
and
reached
2736
students
in
21.
Of
course,
we
all
know
the
reason,
57
programs
and
events
and
then
in
2022,
we've
really
been
working
on
upping
that
and
we
know
it's
going
to
be
even
better
for
2023,
so
we
had
210
programs
and
events
and
reach
over
3
000,
almost
4
000
students.
Some
of
these
are
like
green
steps.
We
we
Mentor
green
step
schools
that
want
to
be
green
steps.
They
have
it's
a
school-wide
program.
V
They
have
to
do
three
projects
throughout
the
school
and
the
recycling,
and
you
know
planning
a
garden
in
the
school
and
many
other
things
so
and
then
the
next
picture
isn't
that
too
cute.
That
was
our
Eco
Camp
this
past
year,
she's
holding
a
little
chick.
You
know,
so
they
got
to
hatch.
You
know
eggs
and
see
a
little
chick,
and
then
we
presented
lots
of
festivals
that
this
is
an
example
of
water
festival
with
horseshoe
crabs.
We
all
know
what
the
buzz
about
horseshoe
crabs
and
then
kids
in
kayaks.
V
This
is
a
really
awesome
program.
It's
I'll
talk
about
them
at
the
very
end,
but
I'll
just
talk
about
it
now
outside
Foundation
over
in
Hilton,
Head
and
Bluffton.
They
go.
They
reach
out
to
every
seventh
grade
class
in
The
District
in
the
county
and
provide
opportunities
for
each
and
every
one
of
those
kids
to
go
out
on
a
kayak.
Can
you
imagine,
and
so
of
course
you
can't
do
them
all
at
one
time,
so
we
provide
the
land
support,
we're
doing
fire
escapes.
V
We
do
programs
with
the
children
while
they're
waiting
for
their
turn
or
after
their
turn.
So
we
are
really
proud
to
be
in
in
that
in
that
group
we
also
do
a
lot
of
conservation
education
in
the
classroom.
We
have
over
14
programs.
All
of
them
have
recently
been
matched
with
the
current
South
Carolina
science
standards,
so
we
know
we're
given
the
best
per
at
the
particular
grade
that
we
give
them
to
so.
The
first
picture:
that's
with
our
soil
tunnel.
V
V
These
are
some
of
our
significant
other
partners,
the
where
we
are
with
the
friends
of
Cypress
wetlands,
and
we
have
a
book
here
for
you.
We
have
created
a
book
and
we
get
grants
from
Farm
Bureau
to
produce
these
books
and
they
are
available
at
Port,
Royal,
town
hall
and
Port
Royal
Elementary
and
the
friends
of
Cypress
Wetlands,
so
that
it's
a
it's
an
activity
book.
We
also
do
a
lot
with
these
others,
including
Kids
Fest
and
the
farmer's
market.
V
V
A
Very
very
good:
is
there
any
questions?
Council
thanks,
I
do
have.
I
A
question
Mr
chairman:
are
we
renting
the
space
to
you
out.
V
and
we
we
realize
it's
a
bargain.
Our
first
neighbors
paid
a
lot
more
than
that
and
we
have
been
scheduled
to
be
in
that
building,
since
it
was
just
a
thought
on
Rob,
Montgomery's,
Minds,
the
architect.
S
We'll
have
a
piggyback
on
on
the
question
and
I.
Would
this
asked
Mr
chairman
that
we
rethink
or
we
look
at
our
funding
to
the
Conservation
District
I
mean
there's
a
lot
that
they
do
for
us.
There's
a
lot
of
Education
out.
There
I
met
Denise
while
she
was
teaching
because
of
the
conservation,
educational
outreach
program
and
there's
a
lot
that
is
currently
still
doing
to
educate
our
young
people
about
the
world
of
living.
W
S
Just
exposure
to
different
types
of
animals
and
Etc
and
plants
that
they
don't
even
know
about
that
exists
here,
so
I
think
we
need
to
rethink,
you
know
funding
and
it
was
like
giving
in
one
hand
and
then
taking
back
on
the
other
side,
just
rethink
that
that's
all
I
want
to
say.
Thank
you.
Denise
thank.
V
F
A
We
appreciate
all
you
do
and
Leslie
thank
you
for
coming
as
well.
We
appreciate
that
great,
let's
move
on
then
and
the
Island
Recreation
Center
and
that's
Mr,
Frank
Sewell
and
Mr
Soul.
If
you
can
just
again
just
give
us
a
little
brief
background
of
yourself
before
you
start,
and
so
we
know
who
you
are
and.
O
Mess
up
too
much
on
these.
These
slide
things
I
went
with
one
I've
learned
after
all
these
years
and
one's
good
enough.
So
first
of
all,
I
want
to
thank
two
of
my
board
members
and
I'll
go
into
myself.
I
have
Steve
Stafford
our
current
board
president,
here
with
us
and
Mary
Hall
passed
board
president
with
us,
their
volunteer
board
of
directors
and
I
work
for
17
of
those
over
on
Hilton
Head.
O
My
name
is
Frank
Saul
I'm,
the
executive
director
at
Hilton,
Head
Island
Recreation
Association,
became
the
executive
director
back
in
1992,
so
I've
been
around
for
a
while
and
I
came
here
in
1986
and
I've
always
worked
for
the
association
on
a
recreation.
Association
again
is
a
non-profit
organization
that
provides
full
service,
Recreation
programs
to
the
community
of
Hilton
Head
Island.
O
We
do
everything
from
swimming,
which
I'm
going
to
be
talking
about
to
youth
Athletics
had
a
major
remodel.
We
have
a
fitness
center
now
the
rec
center
on
Hilton
Head.
We
also
have
a
senior
center,
so
we
really
cover
it
all.
We
have
an
after-school
program
and
youth
programs
here
but
I'm
here
today
to
talk
about
the
island,
Rec,
Center
pool
and
ask
for
150
000
in
support
of
the
pool.
O
The
association
last
year
had
over
117
000
visits
to
the
pool.
We
count
our
participants
by
visits,
but
we're
a
lot
of
open,
swim
people
that
were
there.
We
also
had
the
fire
fire
departments
and
Sheriff's
Department
were
up
there
as
part
of
the
training
and
and
lap
swimmers
and
swim
lessons.
In
fact,
last
year
our
swim
lessons
we
had
over
300
through
3
500
kids
come
and
take
swim
lessons
throughout
the
year
on
Hilton
Head.
You've
got
to
remember
during
part
of
this
time.
In
previous
years
the
Bluffton
pool
was
closed.
O
O
One
thing
I
want
to
also
mention
is
that
we
do
provide
scholarships
for
swim
lessons,
and
last
year
we
gave
almost
3
500
in
scholarships,
so
people
that
needed
to
go
on
the
swim
lessons.
So
that's
one
thing
that
we
do
do
throughout
the
years.
We
have
a
scholarship
program
and
actually
an
overall
scholarship
program.
That
last
year
we
provided
over
328
thousand
dollars
to
programs.
A
lot
of
our
scholarship
funding
goes
into
our
youth
programs.
O
Summer
camps,
but
one
thing
too
that
we've
come
back
since
covet
is
our
swim
lesson:
programs
for
the
second
grade
with
covet
that
program
ended,
and
this
year
we
had
early
in
the
fall.
We
had
150
kids
through
the
Hilton
Head
Elementary
School
through
swim
lessons
programs,
we
anticipate
at
least
another
150
through
the
creative
arts
program
to
be
there
taking
a
swim
lessons
and
that's
all
part
of
the
relationship
we
have
not
only
with
the
county,
but
also
with
the
school
district,
to
provide
those
swim
lessons.
O
So
really
what
I'm
asking
for,
as
as
you've
heard
from
The,
Parks
and
Recreation
Department,
that
you
know
it's
a
struggle
to
find
lifeguards
and
you
can
see
in
the
Gen
annual
information
I
provided
at
our
hourly
rate,
has
gone
up
significantly.
Over
the
last
several
years
we
used
to
swim
instructors
were
at
13..
Now
we
go
to
13
to
18
lifeguards,
where
we're
at
10.
O
Now
we
go
to
10
to
15
dollars
an
hour
and
which
is
a
significant
increase
in
overall
hour
relay
we're
we've
been
lucky,
we've
been
able
to
maintain
staff,
but
some
of
that
is
being
competitive
out.
There
and
secondly,
it's
just
the
cost
of
doing
business
for
all
of
us
who,
in
business
we
know
the
cost
of
doing
business,
is
up
chemicals
and
other
things
that
we've
seen
significant
increases
over
the
last
several
years.
So
that's
I'm
trying
to
keep
under
five
minutes.
O
So
you
can
get
you
all
back
on
track
and
I
talked
very
quickly
when
I
get
in
these
situations.
So
I'm
open
for
questions
that
you
all
have
I'm
ready
and
hopefully
we
can
see
the
support
of
150.
A
000.,
let
me
ask
the
first
question
then,
for
you
and
obviously
everyone
looks
at
it,
says
the
Island
rec
center.
But
you
open
up
your
program
to
everyone,
because
you
have
people
that
live
in
Bluffton
that
bring
their
kids
there
while
they're
at
work
and
explain
that
real,
quick
and.
O
How
yeah,
so
all
our
our
program,
we
have
Bluffton
I,
probably
should
have
said
that
earlier,
but
really
the
the
pool
itself
caters
to
a
lot
of
County
residents,
both
in
Bluffton
and
on
Hilton
Head,
and
we
see
that
a
lot,
but
also
in
our
after-school
program,
probably
about
50
percent
of
the
kids
that
come
to
our
after
school
program
are
actually
from
Bluffton
because
they
work
on
Hilton,
Head
and
so
we're
we're
kind
of
a
county.
Well,
I.
Consider
it's
like
a
southern
Beaufort
County
Recreation
thing.
O
A
Community
good
any
other
questions,
Mr
soul,.
Q
O
We
provide
visitors
Services,
they.
H
O
So
visitors
and
residents.
J
I'm,
a
neighbor
of
the
Island
rec
center
and
I
see
what
happens
there.
All
the
time
and
I
use
the
programs,
really
it's
a
great
facility
with
great
programs.
Everybody.
There
really
goes
out
of
their
way
to
ensure
that
the
variety
of
programs
you
have
are
well
presented
well
administered
and
all
the
people
who
live
on
Hilton
Head.
All
the
County
residents
who
live
there
and
the
County
residents
that
live
elsewhere
have
always
been
welcomed
to
the
to
the
rec
center
It's
Not
Unusual,
to
collect
fees
for
people
to
use
facilities.
J
We
also
collect
fees
at
the
County
Rec
Centers
as
well.
So
I
think
you
guys
do
a
great
job
and
I
congratulate
you
for
it
thanks
Frank.
Thank
you.
S
Yeah
quickly,
your
request
is,
is
for
an
additional
fifteen
thousand.
In
my.
O
J
Thank
you.
Let
me
amend
that
this
year
they
received
145
that
last
10
000
was
voted
on
in
the
last
reading
of
the
budget
amendment
that
we
made.
So
it's
actually
you're
asking
for
a
five
thousand
dollar.
That's.
J
B
You
mentioned
Bluffton
residence
participating
in
an
island
wrecks
of
recreation,
does
Bluffton
provide
any
funding
at
all
really.
O
A
And
I
think
I
met
Frank
30
some
years
ago,
when
I
first
lived
on
Hilton
Head,
my
first
six
years.
A
Kids
used
the
programs
back
that
long
ago,
and
just
so
we
know
I
mean
you,
you
guys
do
fundraisers
throughout
the
year.
You
have
lots
of
other
places.
You
get
money
and
I
know
that
we're
only
what
what
would
you
guess?
Three
percent
four.
O
S
Real
quick,
the
costs
for
maintenance
of
the
pool
is
that
part
of
your
operational
funds?
Yes,
sir?
Okay,
yes,
okay,.
K
A
You
very
much
and
let's
move
on
then
to
Lowcountry
Regional
Transportation
authority
and
we
have
Mary
Lou
franzoni
Mary
Lou.
It's
always
good
to
see
you
thank
you
for
coming
back
to
see
us
again.
X
For
the
invite
I'd
love
to
talk
about
transportation,
so
I've
been
with
low
countries
since
2014
and
I
came
here
as
part
of
a
management
company
and
in
2016
I
started
working
directly
for
the
authority,
and
so
I
have
I
hate
to
say
it,
but
40
years
of
experience
it
just
seems
like
it
went
fast,
but
for
the
brief
introduction,
what
I'd
like
to
say
before
I
start
the
slideshow,
the
slideshow
is
really
kind
of
just
what
we've
done
in
the
last
year.
X
I
just
want
to
say
it's
a
very
exciting
time
for
public
transportation
in
Beaufort
County,
with
the
census
results
in.
We
have
a
new
small
urbanized
area,
Beaufort
and
Port
Royal.
What
that
does
I've
had
conversations
over
here
quite
a
few
times
about
increasing
transportation
for
Beaufort
city
of
Beaufort,
Beaufort
County,
just
in
this
area
and
it's
expensive
I
mean
I'll,
be
straight
up.
If
you
don't
have
an
extra
grant
for
it.
Our
grants
are
pretty
well
used
and
there
really
wasn't
a
lot
of
money
to
bring
out
to
the
table.
X
Well,
with
this
new
urbanized
area
starting
next
year,
they'll
begin
to
give
us
funds
into
in
the
form
of
Grants,
and
so
that
really
helps
us
a
lot.
When
we
flushed
out
the
urbanized
area
on
Bluffton
and
Hilton
Head,
we
had
three
years
grants
when
we
started
and
that
enabled
us
to
buy
vehicles
the
trolley
buses,
because
when
you
have
the
capital,
it's
only
a
15
match
for
Capital,
so
it's
very
conducive
to
getting
started
and
getting
vehicles
and
I
just
wanted
to
say
that
the
other
thing
is
that
we
have
a
study.
X
That's
commissioned
to
begin
with
the
federal
fiscal
year
in
October,
or
the
study
of
Northern
Beaufort
transportation
in
Northern,
Beaufort,
County,
public
transportation,
and
that
was
before
I
even
knew
that
it
was
going
to
become
an
urbanized
area.
Just
knowing
there's
so
many
needs
over
here
that
we
wanted
a
way
to
get
everybody
together
to
discuss
what
their
needs
are.
You
know
look
at
all
the
different
ways
we
can
do.
The
transportation
have
a
consultant
that
knows
all
The,
Cutting
Edge
things
and
come
up
with
a
really
good
plan
for
Beaufort
County.
X
So
I
see
that
in
the
next
year
we'll
get
that
started
and
I
think
it's
really
exciting.
So
I
have
to
push
this
thing.
Let's
see,
if
I,
do
it
right
all
right?
We
do.
We
haven't
really
added
any
service
since
the
last
time
I've
been
here.
So
we
have
our
service
area.
It's
really
large
we're
a
five
County
Authority.
X
All
of
those
outlying
areas,
you
see,
are
commuter
buses
that
bring
workers
in
I
used
to
say
they
brought
them
into
Hilton
Head,
but
it
seems
like
now
people
work
in
Bluffton.
They
work
along
okatee
and
I
170..
X
We
we
drop
people
off
everywhere
along
the
way
to
go
to
jobs,
and
so
it's
a
it's
a
really
valuable
service
for
those
that
depend
on
us
to
get
them
to
work,
and
you
can
see
over
in
Beaufort,
we
have
some
extra,
not
just
the
line
runs
a
little
bit
of
loop,
it
in
St
Helena
on
ladies
Island,
and
we
run
the
smaller
buses.
X
There
called
demand
response
and
we
get
people
to
their
programs
to
dialysis
to
the
doctor
to
a
lot
of
different
causes,
but
we
just
don't
have
as
much
availability
and
we
don't
have
a
regular
Service
as
we
could.
We
could
have
much
better
service
here
if
we're
deployed
correctly.
X
Some
of
our
highlights,
you
see
the
maintenance
crew
down
there,
we
don't
have
a
big
maintenance
crew,
but
my
brag
for
that
is,
we
just
came
back
from
the
state
bus
conference
and
Rodeo
and
they
have
a
maintenance
portion
where
they
bug
the
buses,
and
there
were
four
maintenance
teams
from
all
over
the
state
of
South
Carolina
and
our
team
for
the
first
time
ever
won
first
place.
So
I
want
to
bragged
on
that
and
it
wasn't
easy.
They
set
up
break
boards
and
all
kinds
of
things
they
have
to
do.
X
The
other
thing
is,
we
won
a
marketing
award
through
after
the
American
public
transportation,
Association
and
that's
a
really
big
deal.
We
want
a
first
place
award
in
for.
X
The
trolley
so
I
think
that's
really
good
news
and
we
got
through
not
enough
drivers
and
too
much
money
for
fuel
and
everything.
Everybody
else
is
dealing
with
not
enough
parts
and
we
we've
made
it
through
the
trolley.
We
love
the
trolley,
the
our
busiest
year
was
21
and
it
was
because
Hilton
Head
was
open
when
no
one
else
was
and
we
carried
52
000
passengers
for
Memorial
Day
to
Labor
Day
last
year,
I
was
asked:
why
did
we
carry
less
people?
X
Well,
really
it's
because
the
year
before
was
a
banner
year
we
carried
42
000
between
Memorial,
Day
and
Labor
Day,
and
what
it
does
is
it
really?
You
can
see
the
difference
and
who
knows
what
the
difference
would
be
now
if
the
trolley
wasn't
there
and
everybody
on
Hilton
Head
was
in
a
car,
because
it's
it's
pretty
rough
driving
over
there.
We
do
have
two
routes
and
I.
We
have
a
following.
X
It's
very
hard
to
believe
I
think
he
told
me
somewhere
close
to
a
million
people
following
us
on
on
our
social
media,
he's
looped
into
the
chambers,
social
media,
and
so
we
do
a
lot
of
marketing
of
the
trolley
Nationwide
and
probably
even
in
other
countries.
X
And
oh,
you
can't
really
see
the
map,
but
it
shows
on
the
left
is
caligny
and
it
shows
where
we
go
there.
We
altered
our
route
last
year
to
include
the
sand
shark
Museum,
that's
right
there
on
Nassau
by
the
Low
Country
Park.
We
altered
it
because
it's
a
really
great
destination
and
we
also
go
up
into
Folly
Field
Road
and
come
out
through
Port
Royal,
and
our
ridership
at
the
Westin
is
one
of
our
highest
ridership.
X
We
we
started
the
Bluffton
Breeze
last
year
in
September
we're
running
right.
Now
we
made
a
service
adjustment
in
February
and
I
have
to
say
the
first
year
of
the
trolley.
Wasn't
the
best
like
a
lot
of
people
didn't
get
on
the
trolley,
and
now
we
have
Banner
ridership
we're
struggling
with
the
Bluffton,
Breeze
and
I.
Think
that
when
you
add
public
transit
in
a
place
where
everybody's
in
their
car
to
convince
them
to
park
the
car
and
get
on
the
bus
is
harder
than
I
thought.
X
X
We
were
on
Bluffton
Parkway,
we
go
in
there
and
we
do
pull
people
out
of
there
and
take
them
to
the
farmer's
market
to
the
different
shops
and
stores,
and
so
that
was
a
good
place
to
find
Riders
and
we're
still
in
our
quest
to
make
some
adjustments
to
find
more
Riders
on
the
Bluffton
Breeze.
X
It
that's
the
route
map
and
it
goes
into
Old
Town
and
that
up
and
down
in
the
middle
is
Old
Town
in
Walmart
Sam's
at
the
top
to
the
right
is
the
Tanger
Outlets
and
the
the
golf
course
and
all
the
way
to
the
left
is
Buckwalter.
So
we
cover
the
Bluffton
Parkway
and
through
our
major
employment
sites,
we've
begun
meeting
with
employers
to
give
them
handouts
that
show
how
they
can
get
their
employees
to
work
using
Bluffton,
Breeze
I
do
believe
it's
going
to
pick
up
got
to
give
it
time.
X
We
also
do
evacuation
and
none
last
year,
thank
God
because
we
had
a
lot
on
our
plate.
I'm
hoping
none
this
year,
but
I
know
I
lived
at
the
EOC
during
Matthew,
and
we
provided
about
370
people
away
to
the
shelter
during
Matthew
and
anytime.
The
shelter
opens.
We
provide
transportation
for
anybody
that
needs
it.
Jasper
County
asked
us.
Well,
you
know,
half
of
our
service
area
is
here
in
Jasper
when
you
look
at
Hardeeville
and
all
along
170
and
and
people
that
we
transport
anyway,
and
so
we're.
X
X
Oh
I'm
gonna
go
back.
We
also
have
a
registry
just
so
you
know
how
this
works.
So
if
anybody
knows
they
have
our
transportation
limited
and
they
know
they
can't
really
get
out
and
they
have
any
fear
of
what
am
I
going
to
do.
They
can
call
us
or
go
on
our
website
they'll,
be
directed
how
to
do
it
and
they
sign
up
for
our
registry,
which
means
I
may
need
Transportation.
If
there's
an
evacuation,
we
open
our
call
center
with
our
employees
and
we
call
everybody
on
the
registry.
X
There's
probably
100
people,
maybe,
but
we
call
everyone
and
say:
hey:
do
you
need
Transportation?
Are
you
going
to
need
Transportation?
Do
you
want
to
stay
on
the
registry
when
the
when
the
time
comes?
We
learned
a
lot
in
Matthew.
A
lot
of
people
called
us
from
out
of
the
area
for
their
parents
for
their
loved
ones,
and
we
had
all
these
requests
and
then,
when
we
would
get
there,
they'd
be
like
I.
Don't
want
to
go
anywhere,
you
know,
I,
didn't
call
you.
So
we
call
everybody
before
we
send
the
buses
out.
X
So
we
opened
the
call
center
in
the
morning
at
eight.
By
about
one
two
o'clock,
we
deploy
the
buses
out
to
pick
people
up
the
shelters,
don't
even
open
until
around
six,
and
so
every
single
person
in
Beaufort
County
that
Kent
is
afraid
or
can't
get
out
of
their
house
can
call
us.
We
will
come
and
get
them
and
I
think
that's
beautiful
and
and
we
help
them
on
the
phone
to
calm
them
down,
and
you
know
tell
them
that
we're
we're
going
to
take
care
of
them.
X
We
have
not,
as
of
yet
taken
any
pets
anywhere
but
as
I
understand,
their
pets
can
be
taken
to
the
Jasper
rescue,
not
the
rescue,
the
evacuation
Center,
so
that'll
be
a
new
chapter.
X
We
did
in
the
last
year
we
we
got
some
grants,
it's
53.39.
We
talk
in
all
of
our
little
acronyms,
but
it
what
it
is.
It's
bus
and
bus
facilities
and
scdot
gave
us
money
that
other
people
hadn't
spent.
That's
what
they
do.
If
you
don't
spend
your
money,
they
pull
it
back
and
they
reallocate
it
and
they
gave
us
money
to
replace
two
of
the
mcis
and
we
replaced
five
altogether,
because
that
was
a
big
deal.
X
They're
six
hundred
thousand
dollars
a
piece
and
they
were
million
miles
on
every
bus
and
so
I
had
a
little
dilemma.
So
we've
replaced
five
of
them,
two
of
them
through
karasak
money
and
really
three
through
fifty
three
thirty
nine
one
the
year
before.
So
that
was
super
helpful
and
they
also
gave
us
money
that
we
bought
those
large
cutaways
as
well.
X
We
did
a
study
on
the
airport
on
Hilton
Head
last
year
and
the
reason
is
in
2021.
We
had
so
many
people
at
the
Hilton
Head
airport
and
there
were
no
rental
cars.
There
was
not
enough
Transportation,
there
was
20
30
40
people
outside
you
know
at
any
given
time
trying
to
catch
a
ride
and
we
got
asked
by
Hilton,
Head
and
Beaufort
County.
Can
we
help
out?
It
was
August
then,
and
we
just
can't
move
that
quick,
and
so
we
did
it.
X
We
did
a
study
and-
and
it's
a
it's
ready
to
go
this
study.
If
we
wanted
to
do
it,
but
I,
don't
think
that
the
demand
is
there
back
yet
again
because
they
changed
a
lot
of
the
regional
flights
at
the
airport
and
I
guess
they
pulled
those
Pilots
back
and
put
them
on
the
bigger
planes
and
so
I.
Don't
know
that
we're
going
to
have
an
issue
this
year,
but
if
it
ever
comes
to
having
to
put
the
transportation
out
for
the
airport
we've
we've
got
it
ready
to
go.
X
We've
got
schedules,
ready,
it'll,
be
a
great
service.
It
serves
about
I.
Think
it's
about
30
different
places
that
folks
go.
We
we
had
a
lot
more
than
that
and
we
took
a
bus
and
actually
drove
to
all
of
them
and
some
of
them
you
check
in
over
here
and
your
your
units.
You
know
a
mile,
a
half
a
mile
away,
so
we
ruled
everything
out
if
we
couldn't
get
in
their
parking
lot.
X
We're
not
going
to
that
one,
and
so
the
idea
of
this
is
if
someone
flies
into
Hilton
Head
at
any
of
these
30
destinations,
they
don't
have
to
rent
a
car.
All
of
these
places
are
on
our
trolley
routes,
so
we
thought
wow.
This
would
be
perfect
to
just
keep
the
traffic
down
as
well.
I
think
there
will
be
a
time
when
this
makes
a
lot
of
sense
when
the
flights
are
picked
back
up
again
and
and
with
the
new
airport
renovation.
X
Hopefully,
he'll
have
a
spot
for
public
transit
and
then
it'll
work
out
so
the
plan's
ready.
X
This
is
our
rural.
We
have
two
budgets
with
one
budget,
but
two
factions
of
it.
One
is
the
rural,
and
that
shows
what
our
rural
monies
are.
Our
budget's
around
3
million
and
our
local
match
we
ask
for
is
about
600,
000
and
how
how
we
operate
is
we
spend
money.
Then
we
request
a
reimbursement
and
we
don't
get
a
hundred
percent.
We
get
50
percent
of
our
operating
money.
We
get
80
percent
of
several
of
the
other
items,
so
between
50
and
80
percent
reimbursement
and
that's
the
rural
side.
X
This
is
the
urban
side.
You
know
our
grant.
First,
urban
Grant
was
eight
hundred
thousand
and
it's
gone
up
to
over
a
million
now,
so
you
see
they
do
grow
as
you
grow.
So
that's
really
good
because
we
use
a
lot
of
the
grant
for
operating
money.
This
local
match
is
a
little
higher
because
operating
is
50
50..
X
So
so
we
have
we're
2
million
on
the
urban
side
and
three
million
on
the
rural
side,
and
this
is
the
breakdown
you've
seen
it
in
your
packet
and
and
how
we
do
this
formula
to
to
break
out
all
of
the
cost
share.
That's
the
rural,
the
urban
we
do
by
population
I
have
to
tell
you
it
all
changed
with
the
census
and
Bluffton
went
way
up
and
Hilton
Head
went
down
and
unincorporated
Buford
went
up
in
the
urban
area,
but
really
Bluffton
went
up
the
most.
X
That's
in
the
works
two
hundred
thousand
is
through
the
guide
share
with
the
lats
and
so
there's
a
fifty
thousand
dollar
match
and
I
believe
that
50
I'm
asking
Beaufort
County
for
it,
because
I
don't
go
to
the
city
of
Beaufort
or
Port
Royal,
but
I
do
believe
they're
more
than
willing
to
to
put
in
a
share
for
that.
C
So
this
was
very
interesting
to
me
and
I
live
in
Sun
City
and
what
was
most
interesting
to
me
is
you
have
an
evacuation
registry.
Yesterday,
five
of
my
more
senior
ladies
asked
me
who's
going
to
evacuate
us.
We
are
well
I,
don't
think
they
know
that
so
I'll
be
looking
for
any
information.
I
I
think
you're
going
to
come.
Talk
to
us
eventually,
yeah.
X
C
X
More
because
our
grants
went
up
and
I'm
going
to
say
because
we're
paying
more
for
everything
it
costs
us
more
to
operate
and
fuel
is
huge.
We
use
a
lot
of
fuel
and
both
on
Federal
and
State,
and
the
rural
and
urban
all
the
grants
went
up,
and
so
the
matches
go
up
when
the
grants
go
up.
So
we
are
asking
for
more
money,
but
not
for
new
programs
just
to
make
our
budget.
S
You
you,
your
presentation
always
and
I'm,
always
amazed
at
the
things
that
you
do
providing
transportation
services
for
folks
and
I'm
looking
forward
to
the
Northern
Regional
planning,
that's
coming
up,
I
know
we're
not
in
urban
District
or
area
like
Hilton,
Head
and
Bluffton
that
you're
doing
a
lot
of
work
on,
but
the
same
Services
is
needed
on
the
Northern
regions
and
I'm.
Looking
forward
to
that
study,
I
enjoyed
everything.
You
know,
I'll
make
a
comment,
not
necessarily
be
negative.
S
I'm
just
going
to
tell
you
for
me
when
you
started
talking
about
the
the
the
airport
transporting
from
the
airport
to
different
various
destinations,
I'm,
not
too
thrilled
about
that.
So
I
just
want
you
to
know
that
I
think
folks.
When
they
come
into
a
town,
they
know
that
they've
got
to
get
from
point
A
to
point
B
they
plan
for
that.
S
A
Q
Question
and
comment
we're
now
only
halfway
through,
we
still
have
seven
more
to
go.
We've
now
spent
an
hour
and
40
minutes
another
hour
and
40
minutes
may
take
us
to
the
end,
and
we
have
a
lengthy
meeting
after
this
so
I'm
going
to
ask
the
presenters
to
be
as
brief
as
they
possibly
can.
We
do
want
to
hear
from
you,
but
it's
going
to
be
a
long
day
for
us
good.
Thank.
H
E
H
Point
out
how
quickly
we
came
to
the
podium,
we're
going
to
be
expeditious
and
my
assistant
vice
president
Mary
Lee
Karns
for
advancement
vice
president
for
advancement,
it's
going
to
pass
out
some
propaganda
very
quickly.
It's
good
good
informational,
really,
I,
think
Richard.
H
You
thank
you
for
allowing
us
to
come
before
you
and
thank
you
for
sharing
Ellis
Howard
with
us
as
you're,
laying
on
to
the
commission
to
the
Technical
College
of
low
country,
York,
Community
College.
So
a
lot
of
great
things
happening
at
TCL.
As
you
all
may
know,
we're
one
of
16
in
the
system
we
service,
four
counties
for
our
service
area,
Hampton,
Jasper,
Bluffton
and
Beaufort
counties.
Majority
of
our
students,
majority
of
our
facilities,
are
in
Beaufort
County.
H
You
know
we
we
have
approximately
and
mayor.
At
least.
We
may
repeat
some
of
these
things:
approximately
4
500
students,
total
credit
non-credit,
that's
a
head
count,
so
we
are
a
fairly
large
and
growing
institution
where
enrollment
is
up
post
covet,
which
is
counter
cyclical,
because
other
colleges
are
attending
downward.
People
aren't
coming
back
to
school
after
covid,
but
we
are
up
about
14
percent
this
semester
and
in
our
FTE
in
about
10
in
our
head
count.
H
Y
Y
Thank
you
on
behalf
of
my
colleagues
at
the
the
faculty
and
staff
and
the
students
at
the
Technical
College
of
the
Low
Country
for
the
leadership
this
Council
has
shown
in
supporting
education
and
Workforce
training.
Your
support
is
important
and
well
placed
it's
important,
because
the
Technical
College
of
the
low
country
is
not
State
supported.
We
are
State
assisted.
We
get
a
little
less
than
20
percent
of
our
operating
budget
from
the
state
of
South
Carolina.

Here
in
Buford
in
2021,
this
partnership
proceed
to
1.3
million
dollar
Grant
from

of

and
many
others
wanted
to
take
their
computer
skills
to
the
next
level.
We
knew
the
Buford
would
be
a
great
fit
for
cyber
security
and
we
will
write.
P
Funding
from
the
Department
of
Defense
Grant
has
helped
us
create
faculty
positions
and
new
curriculum
to
support
our
new
associate's
degree
in
cyber
defense.
In
addition
to
the
Cyber
defense
degree,
we
also
have
certificates
entry
level
and
more
advanced
certificates.
In
cyber
security,
we
are
exploring
new
ways
of
working
with
our
local
public
schools,
including
and
cyber
camps,
which
will
give
us
the
opportunity
to
train
not
only
students
but
teachers
on
how
to
deliver
cyber
curriculum.
P
Z
Threats,
it's
no
longer
a
matter
of
if
it
will
happen,
but
when
it
will
happen
in
addition
to
our
certificate
programs,
TCL
now
offers
an
associate
degree
in
cyber
security.
This
is
a
63
credit
hour
program
that
can
be
completed
in
as
little
as
two
years
and
is
open
to
anyone,
regardless
of
their
computer
experience.
One
of
my
favorite
things
about
the.
E
Program
is
participating
in
the
National
cyber
leaks
competitions,
where
you
can
learn
to
ethically
hack,
it's
basically
like
Capture
the
Flag,
but
there's
all
these
different
levels
of
things.
You
can
try
out
last
semester,
I
focused
on
network
traffic,
analysis
and
log
analysis
when
I
tried
other
competitions
as
well.
I'm
a
full-time
student
but
I
also
work
part-time
for
TCL
on
the
help
desk,
so
I
feel
like
I'm,
getting
a
well-rounded
experience
here
at
TCO,
there's
so
many
aspects
of
cyber
security
there's
just
a
lot
that
goes
into
it
and
I'm
definitely
enjoying
it.
I've.
AA
AA
Hey
that
sounds
pretty
cool
so
now
I'm
working
on
getting
my
associate
in
applied
science
and
cyber
security
I'm,
not
sure
where
I
want
to
work
yet.
But
one
thing
I
enjoy
doing
is
attending
Tech
connect
on
third
Thursdays
to
looking
for
digital
Corridor
people
from
different
companies
come
or
they're
working
in
the
industry,
and
so
we
all
get
together
and
network.
It's
a
good
way
to
find
out
what's
out
there
and
what
people
are
doing.
P

Right
next
up
is
Black
Chamber
of
Commerce
Mr,
Larry,
Holman
and
Kevin
Holman.
Thank
you
for
coming
today.
AB
Good
evening,
good
evening,
thanks
for
allowing
us
this
is,
we
were
a
little
confused
about
this
whole
process
and
we
are
a
first
time
Comer.
So
it's
not
additional
is
that?
Okay,
yes,.
AB
It
okay
to
Pro
proceed
with
our
requests.
AB
AB
Okay,
okay,
again,
my
name
is
Larry
Holman
I'm,
the
president
CEO
of
Yuba
County
Black
Chamber
of
Commerce,
since
2020
I
mean
2001.
So
it's
about
22
years
and
before
that,
I
was
executive
with
JCPenney
company
for
27
years,
retired
I
came
here
as
the
store
manager
of
the
Cross
Creek
Mall
in
Cross,
Creek
I
took
early,
took
retirement
in
2001
to
be
with
the
the
present
organization,
with
the
Butte
County
Black
Chamber
of
Commerce.
AB
Our
mission
for
the
Beaufort
County
Black
Chamber
of
Commerce,
is
it
works
with
small
disadvantaged
businesses
and
entrepreneurs
providing
technical
assistance
and
information
related
to
procurement
opportunities,
access
to
Capital,
Business,
Development,
networking
opportunities
and
micro
Enterprise
development,
in
that
the
opportunities
or
assembly
collaborations
Freeman,
District
Art
District
because
of
our
art
infused
our
gallery
that
we
have
right
now,
the
U.S
black
Chambers
other
cdfis
small
business
administration,
and
we
currently
have
a.
AB
We
currently
have
Partnerships
with
these
organizations
the
purpose
of
the
some
of
the
significant
things
that
we've
done.
First
of
all,
since
2012
we've
been
a
micro
loan
Enterprise
we
make
micro
loans
up
to
a
hundred
thousand
dollars
through
SBA
and
USDA.
We
became
a
certified
cvfi
in
2017,
which
we
don't
have
that
many
certified
cdfis
in
order
to
be
a
certified
cdfi,
you
have
to
make
loans
to
51
percent
of
African-Americans
or
black
and
brown
people,
since,
since
we've
been
a
micro
lender,
we've
made
over
113
loans
in
the
Low
Country.
AB
90
percent
of
those
have
been
in
Beaufort
County.
Most
of
the
loans
that
we
we've
made
are
to,
of
course,
risky
clients,
meaning
that
they
do
not.
We
don't
subject
them
to
the
same
things
that
Banks
subject
them
to.
As
far
as
their
credit
is
concern
in
the
collateral.
AB
There
are
several
companies
right
now
that
we
funded
in
the
Low
Country.
They
are
still
around
they're,
making
their
payments.
The
other
thing
we
do
we
have,
we
do
Renovations
for
our
senior
citizens
and
people
on
fixed
income.
We
repair
their
homes
up
to
fifty
thousand
dollars
with
a
partnership
with
the
state
of
South
Carolina
the
thing
with
the
state
of
South
Carolina.
They
do
not
fund
our
person,
that
is
over
the
the
funding
and
also
we're
Hood
certified,
meaning
that
we
are
certified
to
council,
first-time
home
virus
budgeting.
AB
How
to
operate
their
household
and
other
needs
that
they
would
need
in
order
to
do
in
order
to
buy
a
home,
first-time
home
buyers.
If
they
go
through
the
government,
they
would
have
to
go
to
a
organization
like
us
to
get
housing
counseling
right
now.
Hood
does
not
Finance
our
housing
counselor
and
we
need
help
with
the
funding
of
our
housing
counselor.
AB
Also,
we
have
tourism
and
we
are
similar
with
the
CVB
in
that
we
are
advertising,
but
we
do
coordinate
our
advertising
to
make
sure
that
we
are
not
advertising
in
the
same
same
magazine
or
area.
At
the
same
time,
and
as
far
as
art
gallery
is
concerned,
we
Kevin
would
talk
about
our
art
gallery
right,
quick,
oh.
N
Hello,
I'm
Kevin,
Holman,
I'm,
the
director
of
programs
and
social
events,
and
also
grant
writer
our
art
garley.
We
actually
started
a
yam
program
with
these
youth
artist
of
the
month
and
it's
been
bringing
people
they
showcases
people
from
like
be
for
High
local
high
schools,
but
we've
had
people
come
from
actually
Savannah
and
Walterboro
to
come
check
it
out
to
see
what
these
kids
have
done.
N
We
also
hold
festivals,
I,
think
the
first
Harriet
Tubman
Festival,
which
brought
about
over
three
or
five
hundred
people,
and
most
of
them
stayed
at
least
two
to
three
nights
and
they
learn
about.
You
know
Buford
being
one
of
the
places
where
Harriet
Tubman
freed
the
most
slaves
and
that
will
be
going
on
again
this
coming
year.
N
We
also
got
the
Nea
Grant,
so
we
are
establishing
eight
master
classes,
which
we
did
the
first
one
a
couple
weeks
ago,
and
that
allows
us
to
pay
local
artists
to
actually
put
on
free
workshops
for
the
community.
A
Any
questions
for
Mr
Holman
and
Mr
Holman.
K
AB
N
Oh
and
we
forgot
to
mention,
we
are
bringing
in
a
a
video
crew.
Karen
I
forgot
her
name,
but
we
are
partnering
with
the
CVV
and
going
around
to
different
areas
and
focusing
on
black
and
brown
businesses,
but
also
Buford
as
a
whole
in
the
galaikichi
culture,
and
it
will
be
televised
I
think
to
over
a
million
users
or
a
million
I
mean
a
million
viewers
and
also
I
think
all
International
military
I
think
is
what
she
said
as
well.
N
So
we
are
partnering
with
CVB
and
other
local
businesses
to
complete
that.
AB
And
the
amount
of
money
that
we've
longed
out
since
2013
is
2.1
million
dollars.
Also
great.
A
Good,
no
questions,
no
I
think
we're
good.
Thank
you
for
coming
out
today.
We
appreciate
that,
thank
you
very
much
and
we're
going
to
have
John
O'toole
and
the
economic
development
come
back
to
our
next
meeting
as
well
as
Mr
Baxley
from
Buford
Memorial
Hospital
they're,
going
to
come
back
to
our
next
meeting
as
well.
Thank
you
for
for
offering
to
do
that.
A
Appreciate
that
both
you
all
so
then
we're
going
to
move
on
then,
and
that
is
university
of
make
sure
I
haven't
missed
anybody
here.
So.
F
A
South
Carolina
Mr
panu
if
you'd
like
to
come
forward,
please
thank
you
for
coming
today.
Thank
you.
G
G
Problem
at
all,
thank
you
so
much
I
I
just
want
to
take
a
moment
to
thank
you
again
for
giving
us
the
opportunity
to
tell
a
little
bit
about
our
stewardship
of
the
resources
that
you
have
invested
in
University
of
South
Carolina.
If
you're
fed
before
I
jump
in
I
would
love
to
introduce
some
members
of
supporting
organizations
who
are
here
with
us.
Mr
Stewart
is
with
the
Education
Foundation
for
uscb
and.
G
I'm
also
intrigued
with
this
particular
conversation
in
part,
because
it
brings
so
much
memory
a
little
over
seven
and
a
half
years
ago,
when
I
first
came
here
in
January
is
typically
the
month
when
we
go
to
Colombia
to
try
to
make
a
pitch
for
the
funding
that
we
would
be
getting
from
the
state.
And
then
my
colleague
Dr
McGee,
wanted
to
introduce
me
to
the
chairman
of
ways
and
means,
and
as
we
went
to
his
office
before
he
could
even
say
hello
to
me
as
soon
as
he
heard.
G
Let
me
talk
a
little
bit
about
the
university
and
then
talk
a
little
bit
about
the
financing
portion
of
it.
We
are
serving
on
three
uscb
campuses,
Bluffton,
historic,
Beaufort
and
Hilton
Head,
and
offering
unique
opportunity
for
academic
excellence
in
each
one
of
these
locations
for
degrees
that
are
very
much
appropriate
and
consistent
with
the
strength
of
each
one
of
our
locations.
G
I
thought
that
it's
so
important
in
the
capturing
of
the
mission
of
usab
that
we
recognize
how
much
we
draw
upon
the
original
strength
and
contribute
to
the
local
strength
of
the
economy.
We
are
truly
an
institution
from
whose
roots
and
Foundation
is
the
commitment
to
the
community
and
the
dedication
to
the
to
the
to
the
growth
of
this
community
and
to
the
education
of
this
community
and
meeting
all
the
educational
needs
that
are
there.
G
A
few
facts
about
usab
and
I
know
that
we
have
a
number
of
console
members
who
are
new
to
us
and
so
I
thought
it
would
be
good
to
be
able
to
share
a
few
things
about
uscb.
We
are
the
newest,
four-year
comprehensive
University
in
the
state
of
South
Carolina
having
started
in
2004
when
we
started
being
a
degree
granting
institution
we.
G
Our
growth,
has
been
absolutely
phenomenal.
Over
the
past
10
years,
we've
grown
at
42
percent
prior
to
the
pandemic,
we
were
listed
as
one
of
the
fastest
growing
institutions
in
the
nation
in
the
top
10.,
and
we
offering
20
Baccalaureate
37
areas
of
a
farm
of
specialization
and
two
master's
degree
programs
that
have
come
online
in
the
past
less
than
five
years.
G
We
also
have
honors
programs
that
are
located
on
our
Beaufort
campus
and
earlier
on
today
we
were
at
the
cyber
security
Summit
and
where
we're
offering
among
some
of
our
offering
and
newest
ones
or
cyber
security
program
as
part
of
the
the
the
collaborative
of
the
South
Coast
cyber,
we
have
also
been
recognized
since
2019
for
being
a
top
producing
Institution
for
Fulbright
scholars
in
the
country,
and
that
is
so
phenomenal
because
our
size
and
but
it
more
importantly,
it
speaks
to
the
energy
that
our
faculty
and
staff
put
in
investing
in
our
students
and,
of
course,
we
also
get
some
outstanding
faculty
and
staff
as
well.
G
Will
continue
to
thrive,
and
here
are
some
of
the
the
data
from
Beaufort
County
students
we
have.
We
have
over
833
students
looking
at
the
Dot
from
this.
We
also
do
enroll
dual
enrollment
students
and
we
had
over
122
of
those
and
between
our
Baccalaureate
degrees
and
the
Master's
Degree.
We
are
now
averaging
a
little
over
400
Degrees
awarded
annually.
G
G
We
have
tremendous
economic
impact.
We
have
not
done
the
most
recent
number,
but
the
last
numbers
that
we
had
done,
which
are
very
old
now
we're
indicating
around
130
million
annual
economic
impact
over
300
plus
employees,
and
we
are
very
intimately
involved
with
the
school
district
here
and
working
hand
in
hand.
As
a
matter
of
fact
recently,
through
our
Department
of
Education,
we
got
one
of
our
largest
grants
for
five
million
dollars
over
the
next
five
years.
E
G
Price
point
compared
to
other
comprehensive
University
in
the
state
of
of
South
Carolina.
You
have
a
little
bit
of
the
demographics
there
given
to
you,
and
we
have
also
a
focus
on
experiential
learning,
which
has
meant
not
only
undergraduate
research,
opportunity
and
internship
opportunities
and
other
things
that
we
know
have
been
very
good
best
practices
for
learning.
But
it
has
also
translated
into
some
Community
Services,
which
have
a
price
tag
that
you
can
see
over
there
with
your
support.
G
We
are
expanding
and
some
of
our
new
initiative
in
the
spirit
of
councilman
Glover's
requests
about
some
of
the
things
that
we
might
want
to
be
putting
on
a
table.
As
we
move
forward,
you
will
see
the
growth
of
cyber
security,
marine
biology
and
especially
tied
to
that
for
us
in
terms
of
growth
and
initiative.
Is
the
Prichard
Island
conversations
that
you've
possibly
seen
in
the
papers
and
and
seeing
that
expansion
of
Nursing?
G
And,
of
course,
we
talked
about
education,
and
we
also,
as
the
youngest
and
newest
institution
in
the
comprehensive,
have
to
constantly
be
thinking
about
student
experience
and
what
is
expected
of
it
and
how
to
give
some
of
the
best
student
experiences
as
well
as
the
community
experience,
and
we
recently
are
have
transitioned
to
NCAA
division
to
Athletics
and
we're
also
bringing
two
sports
with
it.
As
part
of
that
requirement
for
NCAA
Division
division,
two,
which
is
both
men
and
women
basketball
program,
and
we.
F
G
G
G
This
may
be
a
little
bit
difficult
to
see,
but
you'll
have
access
to
it.
I
just
want
to
highlight
three
dates
in
particular,
where
we
saw
this
commitment
come
to
fruition
and
result
in
the
uscv
that
we
have
today.
As
you
know,
we
Trace
Our
Roots
back
to
1795
with
the
Beaufort
college,
and
it
was
the
result.
G
Action
Gathering
galvanizing,
recognizing
the
importance
of
education
and
the
support
of
the
local
County
to
be
able
to
do
the
fundraising
that
resulted
in
this
institution
coming
to
fruition.
It
was
actually
charted
before
the
University
of
South
Carolina,
that
is
in
Colombia,
okay.
So
this
is.
This
is
really
an
important
day.
G
G
G
Bucket,
if
you
will,
because
that's
the
the
education
and
general
fund,
which,
amongst
others
in
terms
of
of
Revenue,
is
contributed
through
to
through
the
tuition
and
fees
through
State
appropriation
through
the
local
appropriation,
such
as
what
we
get
from
the
Beaufort
County
and
in
terms
of
percentage
that
appropriation
comes
to
five
to
six
percent
of
the
total,
and
what
that
Eng
fund
serves
is
both
instruction:
research,
Public,
Service,
Student,
Financial,
Aid,
administrative
and
student
and
academic
support
and
all
the
other
things
that
are
related
to
the
operation.
G
G
It
simply
would
not
be
possible
for
us
to
do
what
we
do,
and
one
of
the
points
of
Pride
for
me
is
that,
even
though
we're
the
lowest
funded
and
I
have
to
give
a
lot
of
commendation
to
our
legislative
team
here,
they
have
gone
to
bat
for
us
to
really
try
to
close
that
Gap
we're
still
the
lowest
funded
amongst
the
comprehensive.
Even
though
we
have
the
lowest
tuition.
G
Few
years
back,
I
came
before
this
body
to
present
our
need
for
the
convocation
center
and
you
commissioned
a
joint
study
between
the
county
and
asked
to
try
to
put
the
feasibility
for
the
convocation
center.
The
convocation
center
would
be
a
multi-purpose
facility
that
is
meeting
many
of
our
needs,
including
Athletics,
including
large
events,
including
things
that
we
just
experienced
through
the
pandemics
that
would
have
absolutely
been
typical,
but
also
the
ability
to
attract.
F
G
The
county,
some
of
the
activities
and
some
of
the
the
trades
and
so
on
and
so
forth
that
we
are
not
able
to
at
this
point.
So
we
do
believe
that
it
has
tremendous
benefit
to
the
entire
community
and
that
study
that
we
commissioned
together
produced
an
estimate
of
48
million
for
the
facility
and
because
we
had
pitched
it
as
a
joint
venture
between
the
state
and
the
county.
G
That
actually
was
a
tremendous
selling
point
for
what
we
have
accumulated
to
this
date.
We
have
16
million
16.2
million
dollars
that
have
come
from
the
state
funding
to
contribute
toward
that.
Unfortunately,
as
time
has
passed,
price
point
has
gone
up
as
well
and
over
the
past
four
or
five
years
since
we
had
that
work
and
study
done.
The
price
point
has
now
gone
from
60
from
48
million
dollars
for
phase
one
to
68
million.
G
But
this
is
going
to
be
a
critical
continued
effort
jointly
between
the
state
and
the
county.
The
late
Senator
Leatherman
was
was
very
much
persuaded
on
on
on
this
on
this
collaboration
that
that
that
would
happen
between
the
state
and
the
county.
So
this
is
still
an
ongoing
project
for
us.
That
is
absolutely
critical,
for
which
we
are
so
appreciative
for
your
support.
G
G
If
should
the
opportunity
present
themselves
that
we
will
be
able
to
to
be
addressing,
as
as
a
general
rule,
cost
is
increasing,
outpacing
State,
operating
support
and
I've
indicated
that
we
really
would
like
to
maintain
tuition
at
the
low
point,
but
one
of
the
other
things
one
of
the
reasons
why
often
they
tell
us
to
not
change
the
tuition
type
of
the
board
in
the
state
is
that
they
would
in
turn,
give
us
some
mitigation
tuition
mitigation
dollars,
but
often
those
also
come
with
a
lot
of
provisors
attached
to
them
so
that
they
never
translate
to
quite
the
amount
that
you
would
need.
G
So
we
anticipate
needing
some
additional
support
with
our
Initiative
for
NCAA,
the
Pritchard
Island
funding
requests
that
we
have
before
the
state
that
we
we
haven't
seen
yet
at
this
point,
any
line
appropriated
for
that
and
and
the
increase
operational
cost
for
running
three
different
locations.
As
you
know,
that's
always
a
challenge.
G
A
Peter,
thank
you
for
coming
as
usual
and
as
always,
it's
very
thorough
presentation.
Any
questions
for
Dr
panu.
A
I
think
we
are
going
to
do
because
what
we're
doing
next
I
think
our
next
two
presenters,
which
would
be
Sabrina
Graham
from
Lowcountry
Council
governments
has
agreed
to
come
back.
If
we
ask
her
to
come
back
to
the
next
meeting
and
then.
W
F
AB
M
A
We'll
make
sure
we
give
you
enough
time
in
I
apologize
that
to
the
inconvenience
today.
But
thank
you
for
for
coming
out
and
we'll
have
you
scheduled
for
the
next
meeting.
So.
Q
I've
been
advised
that
we
actually
need
a
motion
and
I'm
going
to
present
that
motion
that
this
is
a
motion
to
defer
the
presentations
by
the
Beaufort
County
Economic
Development,
Corporation,
Buford,
Memorial,
Hospital
presentation,
the
Low
Country
Council
of
government
and
the
military
enhancement
Committees
of
Beaufort
County
until
the
April
meeting,
because
we
have
consent
of
those
presenters.
Okay.
So.
F
A
You
all
presenters
coming
out
again
I
apologize
for
running
out
of
time,
but
thank
you
that
that's
a
huge
help
to
us.
So
thank
you,
Sabrina!
Thank
you
Ian
for
that,
and
so
at
this
time
we
are
moving
on
to
number
13
and
pursuant
to
South
Carolina
code
sc30-4-70,
discussion
of
appointments
of
persons
to
a
public
body.
This
is
Green
Space
and
virus
advisory
committee.
I'm
asking
for
someone
to
make
a
motion
for
us
to
go
into
executive
sessions.
