And
the
vast
throngs
in
the
in
the
audience
are
there
any
of
you
who
would
like
to
enlighten
us
regale
us
in
any
way
shape
or
form?
Okay
brings
us
to
item
seven,
which
is
a
discussion
regarding
the
elements
of
the
rules
and
procedures
handbook
for
those
members
of
council
who
are
with
us
are
on
line
today
that
that
book
as
far
as
I'm
concerned
is
complete
and
you
have
a
copy
of
it.
A
You
have
ample
opportunity
to
digest
it
at
your
convenience
and
let
us
know
if
there
are
any
changes
you
think
we
need
to
make
and
if
not
then
sarah
and
I
will
begin
to
look
at
formatting
it
where
we're
going
to
put
the
captions,
etc,
etc,
etc.
But
as
far
as
the
actual
work
on
it
we're
concerned
is
done.
F
Sarah
good
afternoon,
you
have
before
you
this
afternoon
a
recommendation
to
adopt
an
ordinance
that
would
allow
for
expenditure
of
arpa
funds
that
has
been
in
part
received
by
beaufort
county
and
will
be
received
by
beaufort
county
this
year.
The
total
of
those
funds
is
a
little
over
37.3
million
dollars.
F
You'll
recall
that
staff
presented
their
recommendations
to
you
at
february's
budget
retreat
based
upon
the
feedback
that
we
received
from
you
all
at
the
time.
Those
project
lists
were
further
refined
and
are
included
in
your
agenda
packet.
This
afternoon
there
are
two
notable
changes
that
I'd
like
to
direct
your
attention
to.
The
first
is
that
the
recommendation
for
a
splash
pad
an
aquatic
type
facility
on
saint
helena
has
been
removed.
It
has
been
replaced
with
two
items.
Number
one
is
a
partnership
with
the
golagic
farmer,
co-op
in
the
amount
of
250
000.
F
F
The
other
most
notable
change
here
is
a
recommendation
by
administration
that
we
utilize
two
and
a
half
million
dollars
of
arpa
funds
to
provide
for
premium
pay
under
the
final
rule.
This
would
compensate
employees
that
worked
during
the
really
during
the
height
of
the
pandemic
and
specifically
between
the
months
of
april
2020
and
january
of
2022.
F
The
total
that
any
one
employee
could
exceed
would
receive
would
not
exceed
three
thousand
dollars.
Now
we
are
still
waiting
for
final
estimates
because
we're
still
gathering
information
on
the
number
of
employees
at
each
of
the
fire
districts.
They
would
also
be
eligible
to
receive
this
pay
once
those
final
amounts
are
known,
we
will
let
you
know
what
those
are,
but
for
now
we
have
two
and
a
half
million
dollars
in
the
budget
for
the
arpa
expenditure.
F
Now,
if
the
amounts
come
in
and
exceed
that,
it
is
administration's
recommendation
that
we
use
in
order
to
fund
the
balance
of
those
amounts,
use
general
funds
surpluses
from
each
of
the
two
fiscal
years
that
we
completed
while
under
the
pandemic
other
than
those
two
changes.
It's
pretty
much
what
you
saw
at
the
budget
retreat
and
I'm
happy
to
answer
any
questions
you
may
have
thank.
G
H
F
F
And
enhance
the
programming
that
we
have
so
we
have
removed
the
1.25
million.
That
was
very
specific
in
nature,
replaced
it
with
something
more
generic
just
below
that
the
million
dollars
and
the
remaining
250
000
would
be
provided
to
the
farmers
co-op,
and
that
would
be
based
upon
reimbursable
expenditures
for
things
such
as
equipment
and
stuff.
Like
that,.
A
A
A
N
G
O
D
A
All
right,
we
have
a,
we
have
a
motion
and
we
need
a
second.
I
will
second,
that
we
have
a
second
all
right.
We're
in
discussion
on
item
number
eight
I
apologize
for
not
bringing
this
forward
for
a
motion.
I
didn't
realize
it
needed
the
most
any
comments.
Questions
from
members
of
council,
okay
without
exception,
should
be
moved
for
objection.
We
will
approve
item
number
eight
on
the
agenda.
A
O
O
Are
in
place,
but
while
we're
here
today
is
just
to
we
did
the
initial
site
work
in
the
initial
bid,
but
we
didn't
get
up
to
the
full
value
of
the
credits
which
is
577
000.
So
this
change
order
is
for
180
000.
That
gets
us
to
the
to
the
threshold
that
we
need
to
meet.
This
would
include
the
rocking.
O
J
A
A
C
Who's
going
to
speak
to
that
I'll
I'll
begin.
Speaking
to
this,
the
reason
for
this
and
the
reason
for
the
special
committee
meeting
or
the
special
counsel
meeting
is
a
result
of
conversations
that
I
had
with
a
council
member
who
has
just
arrived
and
based
upon
that
conversation,
I
felt
that
it
was
necessary
for
us
to
clearly
define
what
a
citizens
committee
is
and
who
should
be
on
that
citizens
committee
so
that
the
deadline
will
be
met
and
you
can
see
the
proposed
changes
there.
A
I'll
open
it
up
to
any
members
of
council
who
wants
to
comment
on
this.
Obviously
the
the
issue
here
involves
whether
or
not
whether
or
not
elected
officials
should
be
appointed
to
the
citizens
committee
we'll
hear
from
anyone
who
has
wants
to
weigh
in
on
that.
The
chairman's
position
is
that
it
is
for
citizens
only
which
excludes
elected
officials.
P
P
P
P
That's
one
thing:
I'm
happy
to
be
interrupted
about
right.
I
think
we
all
are.
We,
we
love
the
marine
corps.
I
I
also
think
that
we're
running
way
behind
where
we,
where
we
should
be
on
this
thing
and
time
is
short,
we're
probably
the
better
part
of
nine
months
behind
where
we
were
in
prior
referendums.
In
order
to
carry
this
thing
out,
you
know
in
an
orderly
fashion,
and
I've
asked
a
couple
times.
P
Hopefully
at
some
point,
maybe
even
today
you
know
we
might
have
a
a
schedule
of
what
is
actually
happening,
because
I
I
I
view
that
we're
out
of
time
and
maybe
I'm
wrong,
but
it
would
seem
so.
The
other
thing
that
I
would
comment
on
is
that
I
think,
as
we've
been
talking
about
this
and
as
I've
been
dialoguing
with
jared
on
it,
he
has
a
wonderful
concept
about
where
we,
where
we
need
to
go
with
this,
to
make
this
a
world-class
transportation
community
and
it
falls
in
the
category
of
probably
longer
referendums.
P
Much
like
charleston
and
other
places
do
as
opposed
to
what
we've
historically
done
in
the
past,
which
were
shorter
term
projects,
and
it
was
interesting.
Last
friday
I
sat
in
on
the
lats
meeting
and
they're
in
the
middle
of
finalizing
their
long-term
plan
and
one
of
the
one
of
the
takeaways
from
that
was
that
they
too
view
that
we
we
have
a
not
a
large
number
of
near-term
projects,
but
really
a
longer-term
large
number
of
projects
to
go
through
so
anyway.
P
Having
said
all
of
that,
I've
always
believed
that
we
got
some
real
political
headwinds
to
deal
with
on
this.
You
know,
we've
got
the
traditional
thing,
but
the
growth
is
in
one
area,
but
everybody
has
to
support
it
next
november,
there's
gonna
be
a
lot
of
national
headwinds
that
we're
gonna
be
would
be
dealing
with.
You
know
we're
with
the
citizens
are
struggling
with
inflation,
and
this
is
a
regressive
tax.
So
it's
it's
it's
a
tough
one.
That's
gonna
get
get
debated.
You
know
we
we're
going.
P
P
We've
got
issues
like
278
on
the
island,
where
there's
the
bulk
of
the
community
is
very
much
opposed
to
what's
going
on
and
there's
at
least
three
organizations
that
I'm
aware
of
that
are
actively
ready
to
oppose,
what's
going
on,
and
so
we're
going
to
have
social
media
out
there
big
time
you
know,
while
all
this
is
going
on,
we're
a
little
bit
crosswise
with
some
of
the
municipalities,
things
like
the
uniform
fee,
we
get
it
passed.
You
know
it's
tough.
P
If
the
two
political
parties
don't
endorse
it,
they
they
basically
came
out
against
the
the
last
two
that
we
put
on
the
on
the
table.
So
we
as
a
council
we've
lost
a
little
bit
of
credibility
because
they
both
went
down
by
about
a
three
to
one
now.
Having
said
all
that,
I
still
remain
committed
to
the
fact
that
we
we've
got
the
problem
with
the
transportation
and
the
roads.
P
You
know
we
need
to
do
this.
The
referendum
is
the
is
the
right
thing
to
do,
and
maybe
I'm
a
little
bit
foolish
to
keep
believing
that
you
know
was
that
when
I
think
about
it
politically,
but
that's
where
I
am,
and
so
as
I
thought
about
the
appointment
piece,
I
kind
of
concluded
that
I
was
probably
the
best
person
to
you
know
represent
my
district.
I
think
I
have
a
fair
amount
of
background
relative
to
the
issues
that
we're
dealing
with.
That
would
be
useful
to
the
committee.
P
When
I
think
about
the
voters,
particularly,
you
know,
my
district
has
relatively
few
kids,
which
means
I've
got
a
much
larger
percentage
of
voters
than
the
typical
district
in
the
county
and
they
turn
out
and
vote.
So
my
thought
process
was
that
if
they
saw
that
I
was
involved
in
support
and
supportive
that
might
help
bring
them
some
of
them,
some
of
them
along.
P
So
when
I
got
thinking
about
it
between
caucus
and
when
we
had
the
meeting
what
was
about
two
weeks
ago,
I
guess
when
we
voted
on
the
thing
it
was
mentioned
that
one
of
the
mayors
was
appointing
himself
or
was
thinking
about
pointing
himself,
so
that
kind
of
triggered
my
thought
process
that
you
know
kind
of
a
citizen
anyway.
So
I
said
well,
why
not
do
it,
but
I,
if
I
did
it,
I
would
take
on
the
role
that
I
would
not
be.
P
I
would
not
vote
I'd
abstain
from
any
voting
and
I
would
not
advocate
for
any
particular
projects,
but
that
I
that
I
might
be
useful
in
in
doing
that
now,
if,
if
it
turns
out
that
we
wrote
this
up,
I've
got
a
person
in
mind
that
has
agreed
to
go
ahead
and
serve,
and
I
think
he
would
be
good
it's
kind
of
funny.
He
actually
is
outside
my
district,
but
he
I
think
he
would
be
be
very
good,
so
happy
to
do
that.
P
P
So
you
end
up
with
making
a
situation
worse
and
part
of
the
problem.
Is
you
got
a
lot
of
elderly
people
like
me,
and
then
you
got
a
lot
of
tourists
that
haven't
got
the
faintest
idea,
maybe
the
first
time
they
ever
saw
a
circle,
and
so
it
just
lends
itself
to
a
lot
of
accidents.
That's
the
one
place
that
you
know
I
would
would
have
to
perhaps
take
a
roll
so
anyway,
I'm
kind
of
indifferent
as
to
whether
I'm
serving
in
that
capacity
or
you
do
it
in
some
other
way.
P
But
in
any
event,
I
I
actually
do
think
that
it's
it's
a
tough
uphill
and
it
is
a
political
process
and
I'm
not
totally
comfortable
with
that
we're
sending
surrogates
to
to
do
what
is
a
political
job
that
we
should
be
doing,
but
in
any
event,
that
was
kind
of
my
thought
process.
I
hope
we
end
up
with
whatever
makes
sense
and
I'll
serve
either
way.
Paul
and
joe
thank.
A
You,
mr
robin,
this
is
an
example,
one
of
many
where
elected
officials
agree
to
disagree.
We
oftentimes
have
matters
that
come
before
us,
where
we
don't
see
eye
to
eye
all
11
of
us
and
what
we
do
is
we
we
discuss
it
and
we
vote
it
out.
We
move
on
which
is
exactly
what
we're
going
to
do
at
the
next
meeting,
we're
going
to
have
a
special
call
meeting
of
county
council
to
vote
on
this
very
thing.
A
I
will
offer
my
comments
and
then
I'll,
allow
anybody
else
or
encourage
anybody
else
who
wants
to
comment
on
this,
including
folks
in
the
that
are
not
part
of
this
this
committee.
I
think
that
that
this
referendum
will
have
a
lot
more
credibility
with
the
voters
if
it's
proven
by
citizens,
not
not
politicians
now
that.
Obviously,
mr
rodman
is
a
perfect
example.
We
disagree
on
this
fair
enough.
A
He
might
be
right,
I
might
be
right
who
knows,
but
I
have
I'm
entitled
to
my
opinion,
so
I'm
going
to
support
the
the
language
proposed
by
our
chairman
to
clarify
who
can
who
may
and
who
can
and
cannot
be
be
part
of
this
part
of
this
committee
and
I'm
going
to
go
with
this
with
the
non-elected
officials.
Anybody
else,
yes,
sir,
if
if.
I
I
think
to
the
to
the
citizens
of
their
concerns,
and
then
we
got
to
be
mindful
that
the
funds
that
are
going
to
support
these
projects
is
being
paid
by
the
citizen
citizenry
at
large,
and
so
this
is
a
way
of
having
all
the
citizens
those
participants
participating
on
the
on
the
committee,
as
well
as
the
citizens
area,
as
a
large
buying
into
the
projects
that
that
comes
out
of
the
draft
for
this
for
this
committee.
So
I
I'm
on
board
with
it.
K
K
K
So
if
we
want
to
gain
the
trust
of
the
public,
which
mr
robin
clearly
stated,
multiple
other
projects
that
he
did
not
have
to
trust
the
publix.
Because
of
that
that
we
need
to
be
up
front,
I
think
the
citizens
committee
is
a
way
to
make
up
ground.
I
don't
do
not
think
any
elected
officials
should
be
on
it.
I
think
we
should
be
transparent.
K
That's
why
I
picked
the
person
I
wanted
to
so
I
think,
as
we
continue
to
move
forward,
I
think
us,
as
elected
officials,
need
to
stay
out
of
that
committee
to
citizens
committee
that
they're
supposed
to
send
a
recommendation
towards
us
and
then
we
review
it
from
there.
It
also
says
in
this
that
we
have
the
final
say
in
the
vote.
G
Yes,
I
I
agree
as
well.
It
would
either
be
all
of
us
on
the
committee
together
and
us
as
a
council
deciding
where
I
think
as
we're
coming
up
now.
I
think
it
is
best
to
have
a
citizens
committee
and
I
think,
logan
kind
of
touched
on
it,
but
but
obviously
in
in
the
resolution
already
was
under
the
old
number,
seven
nelson
number,
nine,
the
committee's
recommendations
will
be
shall
be
presented
to
the
county
council
for
consideration,
adoption
and
or
revision
of
the
recommendations.
L
Thank
you.
I
agree
with
pretty
much
everything
that's
been
said
prior
to
me
and
in
changing
this,
so
that
it
is
truly
a
citizens
committee.
I
think
we
are
at
risk
of
referendum
fatigue.
If
we're
not
there
already,
and
I
do
think
if
something
like
this
is
going
to
be
successful,
it
needs
to
come
from
the
citizens
up
as
opposed
to
the
politicians
down.
So
for
that
reason
I'll
be
supporting
us.
A
Thank
you.
Anybody
else
on
council
we
have
in
in
our
audience.
Today
we
have
the
mayor
of
buford
and
councilman
flewelling
and
and
several
other
folks,
I'm
going
to
give
them
anybody
in
the
audience
have
an
opportunity
wants
to
speak
on
this
you're.
Welcome
too,
I
appreciate
that.
Okay,
mayor
murray,
if
you've
ever
said,.
Q
About
getting
ahead
of
it
and
trying
to
get
a
citizen
committee
structured
to
really
prioritize
a
list
of
products,
and
I
agree
with
all
of
what
council
said-
I
also
can
appreciate
councilman
rodman's
willingness
like
him.
I
share
a
passion
for
this
work,
a
passion
for
transportation
projects
and
there's
no
doubt
that
the
electives
in
this
county
probably
have
a
more
solid
handle
on
the
history,
the
future.
Where
we're
trying
to
go.
So
I
certainly
can
appreciate
your
willingness
to
participate
the
mayor
of
portland.
Q
I
we
had
a
joint
council
meeting
about
two
weeks
ago
and
discussed
this
topic.
We
also
had
considered
appointing
ourselves
from
the
municipalities
to
the
committee,
but
but
felt
that
really
citizens
ought
to
serve
and,
as
councilman
lawson
pointed
out
just
remind
county
council
that,
after
the
citizens
get
finished
with
the
recommendation.
J
Q
You
guys
get
bites
at
the
apple
to
polish
it
before
it
actually
gets,
gets
put
on
the
ballot,
so
I'm
supportive
of
it
being
a
citizens
committee.
I
have
on
the
agenda
tomorrow
night
at
beaufort
city
council
for
us
to
consider
nominees,
and
we
intend
to
get
you
an
appointment
tomorrow
evening
after
our
meeting
council
will
vote
hopefully
unanimously.
Q
A
A
Beg
your
pardon,
then
I'll
ask
for
a
motion
to
recommend
the
the
language
that
is
in
the
executive
committee
agenda
to
the
full
council
in
approximately
10
minutes.
Yes,
sir
good
morning,
chairman
all
right,
I
got
I
got
motions
to
move
coming
from
everywhere,
which
is
good,
including
mr
rodman.
Thank
you.
So
I
guess
there's
a
second
in
there
somewhere.
A
K
A
A
C
This
is
a
special
meeting
of
county
council
for

rodman
miss
howard
and
mr
flewelling.
So

are

Would
you

C
I

to
the
fight
of
the
united
states
of
america
and
to
the
republic
for
which
it
stands.
One
nation,
under

notice
of
this
meeting,
has
been
published,
posted
and
distributed
in
compliance
with
the
south
carolina
freedom
of
information

I
would
ask
a

so
moved.
Mr

Please
be
seated:
we
have
an
attendance
online.
Today
we
have
councilman
lawson,
councilman,
dawson,
councilman,
cunningham
and
councilman.
I
thought
I
saw
a
councilman
of
color,
but
I
don't
see
her
and
then
in
person
we
have
councilman
flewelling
chairman
passament
myself,
councilman
somerville,
councilman,
rodman
and

Glover
first
thing
is
the
public
notification.
This
meeting
was
published,
posted
and
distributed
in
compliance
with
the
south
carolina
freedom
of
information
act
correct.
We
have
a
need
for
an
amendment
to
the
two
amendments
to
the
agenda.
E
Ma'am,
we
would
recommend
that
staff
that
you
all
consider
deferring
action
on
item
number
11,
which
is
the
amendment
to
the
madeleine
plan
unit
development
master
plan.
There
are
some
outstanding
items
on
that
particular
issue
that
we
need
to
discuss
with
the
developer.
I
had
a
meeting
the
schedule
with
him
a
few
weeks
ago.
E
They
canceled
that
meeting
and
it's
not
we're
not
going
to
meet
until
in
the
morning,
but
it
relates
to
affordable
housing
percentages,
changes
to
the
master
plan,
things
that
are
included
in
the
existing
development
agreement
about
the
public
safety
site,
and
all
of
that
that
we
at
the
staff
need
to
resolve
with
them
before
you
are
taking
the
action
on
this
item.
So
we
would
recommend
that
you
amend
the
agenda
accordingly,
if
necessary.
C
U
E
D
D
D
D
Any
discussion
or
amendments
hearing,
none
without
objection,
the
minutes
from
january
3rd
are
approved
at
this
time.
We
will
open
it
up
for
citizens
comments.
I
have
listed
four
people
starting
in
order.
I
just
like
to
remind
everyone.
We
have
a
three
minute
limit
and
please,
when
you
speak,
speak
with
discretion
and
without
insults
and
all
those
things
that
we
talk
about
treating
each
other
like
we'd
like
to
be
treated
first
on
the
agenda
is
for
public
comment.
Is
mayor,
murray,
stephen
murray
from
the
city
of
buford.
Q
Thank
you,
madam
chatwoman.
I'm
here
to
speak
on.
I
guess
it's
agenda
item
7
now
the
ladies
island
plant.
You
might
appreciate
that
I
actually
wrote
my
comments
down
instead
of
the
rambling
stream
of
consciousness
that
I
normally
bring
to
you.
Thank
you
for
the
opportunity
to
provide
comment
on
this
important
issue.
Together.
Beaufort
county
and
the
city
of
europe
have
been
working
together
to
best
manage
the
future
of
ladies
island,
and
we
should
all
be
proud
of
the
work
that
we've
accomplished.
Q
Q
Q
The
bad
news
is
that
the
new
estimates
have
us
40
million
dollars
short
of
the
funding
needed
to
complete
the
voter
approved
projects.
But
I
know
we
will
working
together
to
find
necessary
funding
to
complete
these
projects
in
due
time
in
2018,
the
county
town
court
royal
city
of
beaufort,
with
a
broad
coalition
of
stakeholders
crafted
and
presented
the
lady's
island
plan.
Q
This
plan
sought
to
understand,
at
the
macro
level,
the
current
development
position
of
the
island,
future
development
pressures
capture,
resident
vision
for
the
future
and
to
suggest
pragmatic
strategies
that
we
could
use
to
help
us
achieve
this
vision.
It's
important
to
remember
that
both
beaufort
county
council
and
beaufort
city
council
approved
unanimously
the
ladies
island
plan
in
2018,
formally
supporting
the
strategies
contained
within
and
providing
the
political
endorsement
for
our
respective
institutions
to
get
to
work
on
implementation
and,
while
maybe
not
as
fast.
J
Q
G
Q
That
was
supposed
to
be
a
joke,
but
make
no
mistake.
We
have
significant
amount
of
work
to
do
if
we
are
sincere
about
achieving
the
common
goals
clearly
presented
in
the
ladies
almond
plant.
A
quick
reminder
of
the
position
we
find
ourselves
in
can
be
found
on
page
four
of
the
plan
quote
the
amount
of
growth
that
could
happen
under
current
policies
and
regulations
would
likely
exceed
the
capacity
of
infrastructure
in
natural
systems
on
the
island,
with
a
current
population
of
approximately
15
000,
potentially
growing
to
18
to
22
000
by
2035.
Q
Q
Q
On
st
helena,
dalton
harbor,
fripp,
kusal
distant
and
the
rest
of
the
sea
islands
must
come
through
ladies
island,
across
one
of
two
bridges
to
get
to
the
mainland
two
bridges
that
already
see
tremendous
pressures
during
peak
rush
hours.
There
are
no
easy
or
cheap
answers
to
how
we
manage
growth.
To
ensure
ladies
island
remains
a
pleasant
place
to
live.
That
isn't
crippled
with
traffic
gridlock
in
the
coming
years.
Q
Part
of
how
our
communities
function,
they
are
only
part
of
a
well-functioning
community
zoning
design,
standards,
development
policy,
public
green
space,
multimodal
transportation
connectivity,
rural
versus
urban
transects
are
also
critical
parts
of
this
conversation,
which
brings
us
to
why
we
are
here
today.
I
commend
county
administrator,
greenway
and
planning
director
merchant's
commitment
to
public
investment
to
begin
at
ladies
island
to
begin
at
ladies
island
village,
center
master
plan
say
that
three
times
fast,
his
request
today
is
formally
supported
by
the
liaison
plan,
the
beaufort
county,
comprehensive
plan
and
the
draft
city
of
beaufort
comprehensive
plan.
Q
Each
of
these
documents
in
some
form
or
other
call
for
the
creation
of
a
ladies
island
village
center
plan
and
specifically
the
ladies
island
plan
states.
That
quote
there
is
consensus
that
the
future
village
should
be
high
quality
with
a
unique
sense
of
place.
But
there
is
no
simple
definition
of
what
that
means.
There
is.
Q
Q
I
think
most
of
us
would
agree
that
the
current
zoning
and
design
standards
fall
short
of
this
vision.
An
example
the
proposed
site
of
a
national
cut
chain,
coffee
store
with
a
drive-through
in
the
middle
of
the
quote.
Village,
has
recently
made
three
county
zboa
appearances,
and
this
month
will
be
heard
a
fourth
time
to
their
credit.
County
staff
has
spent
an
inordinate
amount
of
time
working
with
the
applicant
on
this
single
project,
to
try
to
figure
out
how
to
make
it
work.
Q
J
Q
Q
Of
county
staff's
recommendation
for
a
design
drawing
and
standards
planning
chart,
I
don't
believe
it
goes
far
enough.
I'd
like
to
quickly
take
you
back
to
2005
when
the
county
and
the
city
using
impact
fees,
hired
dover,
coal
and
associates
to
complete
the
boundary
street
redevelopment
plan.
Boundary
street
is
the
entrance
to
the
city
and
is
a
typical
commercial
strip
corridor.
It
does
not
enhance
buford's
overall
character
and
charm,
but
rather.
Q
Q
Q
Project
accidents
along
the
corridor
are
down
22.
It
will
take
decades
to
fully
realize
the
vision,
but
boundary
street
will
eventually
have
a
tree
canopy
lined
with
mixed-use
high-quality
development.
That
is
not
only
aesthetically
pleasing,
but
will
also
help
us
relieve
automobile
pressures
on
our
roadways,
provide
tax-based
sustainability
and
a
host
of
other
positive
benefits,
as
we
all
work
to
capture
the
growth
that
is
coming
in
the
most
responsible
way.
Q
Q
Q
Committee,
northern
regional
plan
implementation
committee
and
the
coastal
conservation
league:
we
have
the
resources,
we
have
the
leadership
and
the
vision
to
bring
forth
a
plan
that
will
help
the
island
move
more
efficiently
productively
and
create
a
built
environment
that
we
can
all
be
proud
of.
Let's
not
stop
short
at
this
critical
moment
in
the
sea,
island's
future.
D
D
Q
X
T
T
T
This
prospect
started
five
years
ago,
when
500
people
showed
up
at
ladies
island
elementary
school
and
set
forth
a
bunch
of
things
in
motion
to
preserve
the
character
from
the
ambiance
and
the
community
sense
of
community
on
ladies
island.
Since
that
time
we
spent
18
months
with
the
help
of
a
consultant
developing
the
lady
ladies
island
plan,
which
was
unanimously
adopted
by
the
county
council
unanimously
adopted
by
the
city
council.
T
T
T
T
T
Y
Y
Y
J
Y
That
would
be
appropriate
to
then
turn
over
to
a
consultant
and
give
them
some
base
framework
for
them
to
do
their
job,
hopefully
reducing
the
the
amount
of
time
and
energy
they
would
have
to
spend
the
that
task
force
was
made
up
of
city
council
members,
county
council,
commissioners,
city,
county
and
town
planning,
commission
people,
sea
island
coalition,
coastal
conservation,
leagues,
citizens
and
county
consultants.
We
did
coordinate
with
engineering
based
on
the
penny
sales
tax
throughout
the
the
time
that
we
spent
doing
this.
Y
We
met
every
two
weeks
during
covid
because
it
was
an
important
issue
for
us
to
move
forward.
We
all
felt
that
way.
We
spent
hundreds
of
hours
in
that
process,
and
then
we
developed
a
presentation
that
presentation
we
have
taken
to
most
of
the
major
property
owners
along
corridor
21,
who
have
given
us
a
thumbs
up
and
said.
Yes,
we
want
to
see
this
proceed
in
the
direction
that
the
planning
that
we
have
put
on
the
table
is
going.
Y
Y
It's
already
been
given
to
all
of
the
nervic
people
I
chair
nervous,
also-
and
I
want
to
also
state
that
I
have
in
no
way
tried
to
go
around
county
administration
to
try
and
do
anything
with
this.
I
follow
procedures.
I
will
always
follow
those
procedures.
That's
who
I
am
I've
been
doing
this
for
over
40
years,
but
I
would
recommend
going
to
the
the
full
consultant
rfp,
which
I
helped
write.
I
also
after
meetings
with
with
the
county
developed
a
foreshortened
rfp
doing
the
charat
process.
Y
Z
Z
We
support
planning
staff
and
the
planning
commission's
recommendation
of
denial
about
rezoning,
as
laid
out
in
the
staff
report.
It's
not
consistent
with
the
county's
comprehensive
plan
and
it's
also
in
direct
conflict
with
the
development
code
and
the
intent
of
the
t2
rural
neighborhood
zoning
district,
which
exp
is
expressly
intended
for
existing
clustered
communities
in
rural
areas
and
not
to
promote
track
development
or
rezonings.
Z
Z
The
last
comment,
our
last
agenda
item
we
were
prepared
to
comment
on
is
item
number
seven.
As
has
been
mentioned
here
today,
the
conservation
league
has
been
involved
in
growth
management.
On
ladies
island,
for
over
five
years
in
2017,
we
co-hosted
designing
ladies
island
with
the
sea
island
corridor
coalition
over
300
people,
attended
and
live,
and
work
on,
ladies
island,
even
five
years
ago
that
the
pressure
on
ladies
island
was
building
the
county
and
city
have
made
a
lot
of
progress
since
2017,
and
we
appreciate
the
investment
in
the
ladies
island
plan.
Z
80
000
is
a
significant
investment
and
we've
made
good
progress
toward
implementing
some
of
the
recommendations
of
that
plan.
Passing
restrictions
on
the
use
of
fill
and
setting
limitations
on
when
and
where
subject
can
be
used
are
important
changes
that
were
both
recommended
in
the
ladies
island
plan.
But
as
the
steering
committee
and
the
village
center
task
forces
have
continued
to
wrestle
with
pressing
land
use
issues
on
the
island.
We've
come
to
the
realization
that
we're
lacking
both
the
necessary
knowledge
and
the
bandwidth
to
craft
a
full-fledged
master
master
plan
for
the
island.
Z
Rezoning
a
robust
plan
is
necessary
and
we've
the
syrian
committee's
crafted
a
request
for
proposals.
We
submitted
a
copy
of
that
with
our
comments
over
the
weekend
and
hope.
You've
had
an
opportunity
to
look
at
it,
but
in
general,
we're
appreciative
of
staff
in
the
administration's
willingness
to
spend
an
additional
25
000
on
planning
for
ladies
island,
but
are
afraid
that
that
amount
will
do
little
more
than
what
we
already
have,
and
we
recommend
that
the
task,
the
request
for
proposal,
make
any
necessary
changes
and
release
the
document
to
get
bids.
Z
People
want
to
live
on,
ladies
island,
they
want
to
work
on.
Ladies
island
businesses
want
to
build
on
ladies
island
and
we're
seeing
controversial
projects
pop
up
that
are
one
that's
currently
before
the
county
zoning
board.
A
master
plan
can
help
us
be
prepared
and
is
urgently
needed.
We
thank
you.
Thank.
D
You,
I
think,
that's
a
record
three
three
different
items
that
I've
seen
since
I've
been
on
the
council.
One
public
comment
period
you'd
be
commended
for
getting
all
that
said.
Okay,
our
new
number
seven
is
resolution
authorizing
the
county.
Oh,
let
me
anyone
else
that
changed
their
mind
about
public
comments
wants
to
make
some
at
this
time
all
right.
E
In
my
particular
case,
I
have
had
over
about
10
hours
worth
of
meetings
on
this
rfq
request
and
trying
to
tell
the
folks
here
that
I
do
not
support
this
request.
I
do
not
support
an
additional
200
000
of
county
money
going
to
planning
on.
Ladies
island.
We
have
a
plan.
We
need
to
implement
that
plan.
In
my
particular
case,
we
have
staff.
E
I
have
one
of
the
best
vertical
design
professionals
in
the
planning
departments
anywhere
in
the
state
of
south
carolina,
and
now
we
have
one
of
the
best
horizontal
site
designers
that
we
just
hired
from
dorchester
county
in
our
planning
department.
We
know
how
to
design
and
implement
the
ladies
island
plan.
E
So
having
said
that,
I'm
frustrated
about
this
issue.
Part
of
that
realization
is
that
I
need
to
step
aside
and
turn
this
over
to
other
staff
members,
because
I
think,
if
you
all
fund
this,
it's
going
to
be
a
waste
of
taxpayer
money.
It's
going
to
be
more
of
the
same
that
we
already
have
over
there.
It's
just
going
to
cost
you
a
lot
more
money.
Q
E
D
J
AA
AA
C
AA
The
level
of
passion
that
surrounds
ladies
island,
I
I
think
it's
justified.
I
think,
ladies
island,
is
a
center
focal
point
of
the
downtown
beaufort
and
sea
island
entryway,
and
I
think
it's
it's
important
to
a
lot
of
us
on
a
personal
level.
I
grew
up
on.
Ladies
island,
I
was
born
and
raised
in
beaufort
grew
up
on
ladies
island,
and
I
remember
vividly
my
parents
had
an
office
at
the
downtown
marina
or
at
the
the
ladies
island
arena,
and
I
would
walk
up
to
captain
geeches
and
get
bait
and
most
afternoons.
AA
I
would
fish
with
captain
jack,
I
don't
know
if
any
of
you
remember
him
down
there
with
this
pipe,
but
it's
it's
a
place
that
is
of
great
importance
and
the
direction
and
the
growth
that's
going
to
take
place.
There
does
need
to
be
managed.
I
think
we
all
agree
on
that.
I
think
the
end
goal
and
the
vision
we
all
agree.
AB
AA
AA
O
AA
And
it
has
been
refined
to
the
point
where
now
we
know
where
we
want,
ladies
island,
to
go
ordinances,
both
city
and
county,
we
currently
have
those
ordinances
they
are
in
place.
Are
they
perfect?
No,
they
are
not.
That's.
That's
one
of
the
items
that
we
need
to
address.
Ladies
island
plan.
That's
109
page
plan
that
more
clearly
defines
the
path
forward
and
contains
clear
information
related
to
the
ladies
island
village
center
corridor.
AA
A
lot
of
the
information
was
addressed
in
that
plan.
We
spent
a
lot
of
money
and
a
lot
of
time
and
effort
creating
that
plan.
The
stantec
studies
identify
traffic
needs
on
for
ladies
island.
All
of
these
are
building,
on
top
of
each
other.
To
accomplish
that
vision,
we
have
traffic
project
funding
from
the
penny.
Sales
tax
and
county
staff
are
currently
designing
road
projects
to
accomplish
the
vision
for
ladies
island.
AA
G
AA
AA
The
some
of
the
city
zoning
allows
things
that
we,
you
know.
I
think
we
can
all
agree,
don't
fit
in
what
that
vision
is
for
the
ladies
island
plan,
we
need
to
refine
both
sides
of
those
ordinances.
We
need
to
refine
those
ordinances
and
then,
as
they
tag
on
to
that,
we
need
to
identify
opportunities
for
and
establish
interconnectivity
between
businesses
along
the
corridor.
AA
AA
So
the
two,
the
two
points
that
we're
going
back
and
forth
between
do
we
take
on
a
full-blown
parcel
level
study.
Do
we
need
to
incur
that
expense
to
accomplish
these
things?
County
staff's
contention
is
no.
We
don't.
We
have
very
talented
folks
on
our
staff
and
the
the
resolution.
That's
before
you
spells
out
why
we
want
to
do
the
sharing.
J
AA
AA
AA
AA
AA
AA
Those
things
that
need
to
be
changed
and
create
the
standard
draw
the
drawings,
bring
it
before
both
councils
and
find
common
ground
on
it.
So
it
would
be
a
an
additional
step,
maybe
not
the
final
step,
but
it
would
certainly
take
us
very
close
to
where
we
need
to
be
to
accomplish
the
goal.
I
hope
that
answers
your
question.
Thank
you
very
much.
R
Thank
you.
I
certainly
appreciate
staff's
offer
to
see
this
project
through
to
completion,
and,
while
I
I
sincerely
do
not
doubt
your
ability
to
do
that,
your
competence,
I
move
the
opinion
that
the
time
requirement
the
personnel
adjustments
that
would
be
necessary.
The
the
the
sheer
magnitude
of
other
jobs
that
we
need
to
you
to
do
at
this
time
really
takes
it
outside
of
those
things.
I
want
staff
to
be
focusing
on,
and
certainly
supervision
of,
the
the
project
the
work
product
that
comes
out
of
any
outside
contractor.
R
I
think
that
that
this
is
something
I
really
want
outside
hands
to
be
a
part
of
and
well.
I
certainly
applaud
your
enthusiasm
for
seeing
this
project
through.
Madam
chairman,
I
intend
to
vote
in
opposition
to
the
motion
and
more
in
line
with
what
has
been
recommended
by
the
northern
regional
plan
implementation
committee,
the
ladies
island
plan
committee
and
each
of
the
citizen
groups
that
have
come
forward
and
the
the
city
of
bieber.
But
I
thank
you.
R
A
I'm
kind
of
saddened
that
we
have
conflicting
opinions
on
how
we
move
forward,
because
we
all
want
the
same
thing.
There's
nobody
in
this
room
who
doesn't
want
the
same
thing,
it's
a
question
of
how
we
get
there
and
what
what
steps
we
take
along
the
way
and
I'm
I
am
not
inclined
to
sideline
staff
for
an
outside
consultant
at
this
stage
of
the
game.
I
don't.
I
don't,
and
I've
listened
to
everyone
in
here
privately
in
another
meeting.
This
isn't
the
first
time
we've
had
this
discussion,
many
many
many
times.
A
First
of
all,
there
have
been
organizations
that
are
not
well
the
northern
regional
plan.
The
ladies
island,
the
ladies
island
plan
committee
have
worked
diligently
on
this,
and
so
their
work
will
not
be
for
naught.
Their
work
will
be
integrated
into
whatever
happens,
whether
we
go
to
an
outside
consultant
or
whether
we
continue
with
staff.
My
preference
is
to
go
is
to
continue
with
staff,
because
it
saying
we're
going
to
continue
with
staff
does
not
end
anything.
A
It
doesn't
preclude
anything,
it
doesn't
mean
we
can't
do
something
else
later
on
with
a
consultant
or
without
a
consultant.
If
we're
not
satisfied
that
we
have
we've
gotten
where
we
need
to
go,
but
I
I
felt
from
the
beginning
that
that
staff
needs
to
do
whatever
their
whatever
they
can
do,
whatever
they're
willing
to
do.
A
I
don't
think
it's
it's
our
position
to
to
decide
what
staff
has
time
to
do
and
what
they
don't
have
time
to
do.
That's
that's
from
the
administrator
and
the
executive
team
to
decide,
and
I've
heard
the
administrative
executive
team
say
we
have
the
time
we
have
the
we
have
the
talent
and
we're
going
to
do
it
and
what
they're
going
to
do
what
they
propose
to
do.
What
they're
committed
to
do
is
exactly
consistent
with
what
everybody
wants
us
to
do.
A
So
I'm
going
to
vote
for
this
motion,
but
all
the
motion
says
is
we're
going
to
spend
no
more
than
25
000
internally
to
do
this
that
doesn't
preclude
anything.
So
again,
I'm
saddened
that
we
don't
all
see
the
same
path
forward,
but
these
things
happen-
and
I
will
continue
to
monitor
this
and
be
part
of
this,
and
if,
if
I
feel
at
some
point
that
we
need
additional
support,
consultants
I'll
be
more
than
happy
to
support
it.
And
that
may
happen
I
don't
know,
but
we
have
a.
A
We
have
a
very
talented
staff,
who's
saying.
Let
us
do
this
and
my
my
response
to
that
is:
yes,
please
do
that,
and
but
I'm
not
don't
mean
to
reign
on
anybody's
parade
or
say
anybody
is
wrong
because,
as
I
said,
we
all
want
the
same
thing.
How
do
we
get
there?
And
I
think
this
is
the
step
we
take
we're
not
closing
any
doors,
we're
not
throwing,
ladies
island
under
the
bus,
we're
not
abandoning
the
any
of
the
plans
that
have
already
been
done
and
are
sitting
there
waiting
to
be
fulfilled.
A
U
I
do
know
that
I've
seen
some
drawings
rendition
of
a
infrastructure
dealing
with
roads
and
moving
traffic
that
was
outlined
by
a
citizen
group,
but
I
don't
know
whether
staff
has
bought
into
that
or
not.
So
I'm
on
the
mind
right
now
that
there's
a
community
group
that
sees
things
one-way
county
government
may
be
seeing
it
another
way.
U
Now
I
don't
know
from
what
I'm
seeing
right
now,
whether
25
000
can
do
it.
I
doubt
seriously,
so
I'm
gonna
vote
no,
because
I
think
it
we
need
to
make
sure
that
we
got
the
total
scope
of
work
to
move
forward
and
whether
that's
in-house
staff
or
consultants,
we
need
to
do
it
right.
We
only
have
a
short
time
because
development
is
continuously
happening
on
latest
hour.
That's
right!
Thank
you.
C
You're
talking
about
a
charrette
that
will
tell
us
if
we
need
to
go
further
in
this
process,
so
would
seem
to
me
that's
the
step
we
should
take
at
this
point
in
time.
Allow
collaboratively
to
see
if
we
can
solve
the
problem
in-house
or
if
we've
now
defined
a
greater
scope
that
we're
going
to
have
to
go
to
mayor
murray
and
say
you
have
money
set
aside.
How
much
is
it
going
to
be
enough
for
us
to
do
the
next
phase?
My
comments.
D
Thank
you.
I'd
like
to
make
a
few
comments.
Your
your
points
are
excellent,
mr
atkinson,
about
what
the
real
question
is.
I
mean
we
I
went
to
those
meetings
at
lays
island
elementary
was
over
300
people
there.
This
was
what
five
years
ago.
I
think
that
that
happened.
We
we
know,
there's
an
issue
if
it
impacts
saint
helena,
it
impacts
port
royal,
it
impacts
the
city
of
beaufort
traffic.
I
think
this
is
a
good
start
and
I
will
vote
for
it.
D
I
know
some
other
people
voluntarily
spend
a
lot
of
time
on
that
rfp
and
I
appreciate
all
the
work
they
did,
but
with
covid.
We
haven't
had
enough
time
to
hear
from
the
owners
of
property
the
re,
the
other
public
that
we're
not
hearing
from
today.
We
heard
from
four
people
today
and
they
did
a
great
job,
but
there's
other
people
who
have
some
real,
strong
ideas
about.
Ladies
island,
that
haven't
been
able
to
be
in
public
meetings,
and
I
think
we
need
to
start
with
this
charette.
AA

Thank
you
all
right,
we'll
go
on
to
number
eight,
which
will
be
presented
by
mr
merchant
correct,
recommend,
first
reading
of
an
ordinance
for
approval
of
a
zoning
amendment
request
for
6.26.
Oh
I'm,
sorry!
Now
it's
number
eight,
I'm
sorry!
I
skipped
one.
This
one
will
be
presented
by
ms
naggin
recommend,
first
reading
of
an
ordinance
for
approval
of
zoning
math
amendment
rezoning
requests
for
the
19
ruling,
critical
land
preservation
program
properties
from
various
zoning
districts
to
t1
natural
preserve.
M
Good
afternoon,
thank
you
for
being
here
today.
This
item
is
is
to
down
zone
19
of
the
ruling
critical
properties
when
the
program
first
started
22
years
ago
now,
in
the
initial
stages,
the
properties
were
rezoned
shortly
after
acquisition
and
somewhere
in
the
transition
of
contractors
and
different
different
people
that
we
had
from
trust
for
public
lands
to
nature
conservancy
to
the
open
land
trust
the
rezoning
of
the
properties
as
they
were
acquired
just
got
lost
in
the
mix.
M
So
I
noticed
that
several
properties
were
zoned
t2r,
some
commercial,
some
neighborhood
districts,
some
were
still
in
puds,
and
so
I
just
thought
well
in
order
to
be
consistent
through
the
program,
let's
go
ahead
and
put
them
all
as
t1
natural
preserve,
and
so
that's.
What
we're
here
today
is
to
do
basically,
a
batch
rezoning
down
zoning
of
these
properties,
these
19
properties
in
this
one
ordinance.
C
D
Correct
correct,
be
simple:
anyone
else
online
speak
up
all
right
all
right
now
we
had
a
motion
in
a
second
any
any
objection
we'll
pass
this
without
objection.
Okay,
thank
you.
Okay!
Now
we
get
to
the
next
one,
mr
merchant.
This
is
the
recommend
first
reading
of
an
ordinance
for
approval
of
the
zoning
map,
amendment
request
for
6.26
acres
at
186,
cherokee
farms,
road
from
t2,
rural
to
t4,
hamlet,
center,
open,
okay,.
AC
J
AC
I
think
all
total
that
community
makes
up
about
427
acres
with
a
1400
approved
residential
unit,
so
that's
right
next
door
to
this
development.
So
when
we
looked
at
the
impact
we
wanted
to
make
sure
it
was
compatible
with
cherokee
farms.
The
other
concern
was
compatibility
with
the
air
station
since
it
sits
in
the
noise
contours.
W
AC
The
the
northern
side
of
the
road,
which
is
a
cherokee
farm
site
and
has
approximately
a
hundred
and
fifty
thousand
additional
square
feet
of
commercial
that
could
develop
in
that
area.
So
we
wanted
to
make
sure
that
in
making
any
changes
to
this
site,
we
weren't
simply
creating
more
competition
to
an
area
that
already
has
significant
capacity
to
grow.
AC
They
approached
haversham
and
they
expressed
an
interest
to
see
this
site
develop
more
in
the
type
of
uses
that
could
complement
what
they
have
on
our
main
street.
So
if
you
think
of
the
main
street,
or
what's
what's
on
market
street
at
habersham,
it's
offices
boutiques
retail
space,
restaurants,
that
type
of
thing
in
a
walkable
main
street
fashion,
but
the
type
of
things
that
they
don't
have
or
things
like
medical
offices
or
you
know,
veterinary
services
types
of
uses
that
may
not
be
appropriate
in
a
main
street.
So
they
worked
with
haversham.
AC
AC
AC
They
presented
two
layouts
one
has
sort
of
a
brewery
beer
garden,
medical
offices,
the
other
one
has
assisted
living.
The
air
station
was
very
strongly
opposed
to
anything
with
a
concentration
of
residences
and
so
assisted
living
fell
in
that
category,
so
they
were
in
favor
of
the
plan
that
did
not
have
any
residential
component,
and
so
they
sort
of
got
their
conditional
support
from
the
air
station
as
well
as
far
as
staff
is
concerned,
we
do
have
the
airport
overlay
district
in
place,
so
that
would
limit
density,
residential
density
on
this
site.
AC
AC
AC
B
AC
D
J
V
AC
As
far
as
staff
recommendation
staff
recommends
approval
and
we
believe
that
the
parcel
has
potential
to
serve
the
the
habersham
cherokee
farms
community
with
supporting
businesses
that
may
not
be
appropriate
in
the
existing
market
street
area.
This
received
when
it
went
to
our
planning
commission.
They
voted.
AC
T
C
O

AC
A

There
was
concern
about
that
specific
issue.
They
wanted
to
have
additional
agreements
or
conditions
that
the
applicant
and
the
air
station
would
have
and
from
staff
standpoint
we
did
not
know.
We
didn't
believe
that
there
was
a
mechanism
that
they
could
use
as
part
of
the
rezoning
process,
and
it
was.
AC
U
AC
U
AC
AC
AC
AC
I
remember
the
discussion
that
the
primary
reason
they
were
concerned
about
at
that
point
they
did
not
have
a
clear
approval
or
disapproval
from
the
air
station.
There
was
a
lot
of
discussion
about
some
sort
of
agreement
worked
out
and
we
just
did
not
see
that
as
something
that's
enforceable.
You
know
in
a
resounding
process
so.
AC
O
C
AC
E
A
couple
of
things
that
we're
working
with
the
chairman
of
the
planning
commission
to
clarify
some
of
this
stuff.
Our
planning
commission,
operates
under
the
premise
that
if
they
make
a
motion
and
the
motion
fails,
then
it
goes
automatically
to
a
denial.
Okay,
okay,
they
don't
go
back
and
make
another
motion.
We've
gotta
we've
gotta
work
on
that
and
correct
that,
because
I'm
not
sure
what
the
rules
and
procedures
say
and
I'm
not
sure
that
is
compliant
with
robert
school's
order.
So
but.
D
AC
D
D
Councilman
cunningham.
Did
you
have
a
question?
No
just
okay.
Without
objection,
this
will
go
on
to
first
reading
all
right!
Thank
you.
Thank
you
all
right.
The
next
one
is
recommend,
first
reading
of
an
ordinance
for
approving
the
text
amendment
to
the
cdc
permitted
activities
and
to
revise
the
ladies
island
community
preservation.
D
AD
Ladies
island,
we
took
a
look
at
ladies
island
community
preservation
district
and
it
is
primarily
residential
in
character.
There
are
very
few
commercial
uses
in
that
district.
It
does
extend
for
pretty
far
away
and
we
do
have
a
map.
I
don't
know
if
you
guys
have
it
readily
available,
it's
okay,
if
not,
but
it
it
includes
a
lot
of
different
communities.
So
I'm
just
gonna
give
you
an
example:
we've
got
celadon
deer
run
royal
pines,
tradewinds
plantation
magnolia
court
and
so
on.
There's
lots
of
different
types
of
communities
all
throughout
this
region.
AD
We
compared
the
ladies
island
community
preservation
district
with
our
transect
zones
that
already
have
short-term
rentals
included
as
a
special
use
and
found
that
it's
pretty
comparable
to
t3
edge,
t3,
hamlet,
neighborhood
and
t3
neighborhood.
As
far
as
the
uses
that
are
allowed
within
this
zone,
and
since
those
three
transect
zones
already
include
short-term
rentals
as
a
special
use.
AD
This
ladies
island
community
preservation
district
felt
compatible
appropriate
for
that
additional
use,
and
then
again
we
thought
it
was
a
good
idea
to
go
ahead
and
handle
the
ladies
island
neighborhood
activity
center
and
the
ladies
island
professional
office
districts
as
well.
At
the
same
time,
and
I
think
I
will
open
it
for
questions,
if
you
have
any
I'd
just
like.
D
U
One
quick
one:
yes
a
couple
years
ago,
maybe-
and
I
don't
even
know
what
ever
happened.
But
there
were
some
neighbors
in
the
bluffton
community
that
complained
about
noise,
et
cetera,
et
cetera,
because
property,
and
is
there
any
provision
and
in
any
of
the
audience
that
deals
with
noise
abuse
because
of
rental.
AA
Sure,
good
afternoon
again,
so
that
falls
more
over
into
the
code
enforcement
aspect
of
activities
like
that
it
would
take
place,
and
the
answer
to
that
is:
yes,
we
have
a
noise
ordinance
and
we
also
have
other
ordinances
about
traffic
impacts
and
different
things
like
that.
So,
if,
if
it
gets
out
of
order
and
violates
one
of
our
ordinances,
we
definitely
have
the
capacity.
U
AA
Do
I
don't
remember
the
name
of
it?
I
can
tell
you
that
there
have
been
a
few
cents
also
with
with
a
number
of
issues
like
that
and
every
one
of
them
we
take
them
individually.
We
compare
the
the
situation
with
our
ordinance
and
if
there
is
a
violation,
we
have
code
enforcement
staff
that
go
out
and
address
that.
Okay,
yes,
thank
you.
Thank
you.
AD
A
Yeah,
thank
you.
This
has
become
a
topic
de
jour,
it's
a
hot
topic
everywhere
and
there
are
pros
and
cons
in
my
neighborhood.
I
live
in
the
city
of
beaufort
in
the
pigeon
point
neighborhood
and
a
while
back
one
of
my
neighbors
wanted
to
convert
a
house
to
a
short-term
rental.
So
I
was
faced
with
this
and
I
was
asked
as
as
a
neighbor,
to
offer
my
opinion
in
writing,
which
I
did
and
I
supported
it.
A
A
I
like
it
as
a
special
use
because
it
allows
the
neighbors
to
have
input
and
I've
been
listening
carefully
to
the
zoning
board
of
appeals,
and
I
want
to
make
sure
that
they
share
my
view
that
the
neighbors
opinions
are
relevant
to
whatever
decision
they
make,
whether
it's
a
short-term
rental
or
whether
it's
a
coffee
shop
and
somebody's
back
or
whatever
it
is.
So.
I'm
inclined
to
support
this.
I
think
it
gives
it
gives
enough
enough
input
opportunity
for
input
from
the
neighborhood
and
it's
taken
seriously,
and
so
I'm
I'm
okay
with
it.
D
Okay,
we
had
a
second
any
without
any
objection.
This
passes
and
thank
you
for
the
explanation.
Appreciate
it.
Okay,
the
next
one
in
your
packet,
was
different
than
what
was
what
was
published
was
different
on
the
amendment.
This
is
number
10,
so
I
need
miss
brock.
I
need
to
read
this
out
loud
or
do
you
want
to
put
it
up
on
the
screen?
The
corrected
version.
AD
AD
This
one,
absolutely
yes,
thank
you.
So,
as
was
just
mentioned,
we
were
talking
about
t4
neighborhood
center
and
how
some
of
these
districts
exist
on
the
outskirts
of
bluffton.
Well,
that's
where
we're
going
to
the
outskirts
of
bluffton,
for
this
particular
re-zoning,
and
I
do
have
some
maps
available
for
you
all
to
look
at
and
we'll
do
the
video
as
well
here
in
a
moment.
So
you
can
see
this
property,
but
this
is
a
pretty
straightforward,
rezoning
request.
The
property
in
question
owned
by
mr
mihai
is
six
and
a
half
acres.
AD
It
is
currently
zoned
t4
hamlet
center
open.
Mr
mihai
owns
the
neighboring
property
as
well,
which
is
currently
zoned
t4
neighborhood
center.
So
the
reason
this
is
before
you
today
is
because
the
owner
is
trying
to
achieve
a
compatible
synonymous
stoning
across
both
parcels,
with
the
intent
to
develop
both
of
them
at
the
same
time
and
so
wants
to
work
within
the
same
regulations
underneath
each
if
you'll
recall
earlier
we're
talking
about
t4
hamlet
center,
open.
AD
So
here's
our
map
coming
up
for
you
to
help
kind
of
visualize
where
we
are-
and
I
may
have
included
too
many.
It
might
be
a
little
bit
of
overkill,
but
I
wanted
to
make
sure
so
you
can
see
right
next
door
to
the
property
which
is
outlined
in
red,
that
you've
got
the
t4
neighborhood
center,
which
is
the
requested
rezoning
for
this
new
property.
This
28
buckingham
plantation
drive
across
bluffton
parkway
there
that
is
edgewater
the
edgewater
apartment,
complex,
which
we
will
see
an
ariel
here
in
a
moment.
AD
So
you
can
kind
of
see
the
way
the
landscape
looks,
that
is
a
a
t4
hamlet
center
open
development.
So
it
gives
an
example
of
what
that
district
allows.
That's
the
current
district
of
the
property
in
question
this
afternoon
to
the
south
of
the
property
is
the
old
south
pud,
with
its
golf
course
and
associated
residential
development
and
then
flanking
across
the
streets.
Around
edgewater
is
c5
regional
center
mixed
use.
This
is
commercial
development,
so
tanger
outlets
self
storage
units,
a
variety
of
other
uses,
a
fire
district.
AD
AD
So
this
is
an
aerial
image.
To
give
you
an
idea
of
what
the
area
looks
like
so
again
to
the
south,
we
have
the
old
south
golf
course:
an
associated
residential
development,
kind
of
moving
to
the
south.
What
southeast
across
to
the
north
across
the
bluffton
parkway,
you
can
see
the
edgewater
development
directly
across
from
where
that
red
red
arrow
is,
and
then
the
tanger
outlet
subdivisions
there
and
then
we'll
go
ahead
on
to
the
next
slide.
AD
This
one
gives
us
a
closer
look.
It
is
an
undeveloped
slot.
This
lot
in
the
neighboring
lot
were
on
a
pre-existing
executive
course.
I
think,
is
what
it
was
called.
It
was
a
nine
whole,
three
par
golf
course
in
the
past,
and
so
you
can
see
edgewater
again
straight
across
the
street
there
just
giving
you
a
better
look
at
that,
and
then
I
think
the
next
slide
is
the
video.
AD
AD
AD
J
AD
So
t4
hamlet
center,
open,
is
a
more
kind
of
suburban
development,
allows
for
mixed
use,
pedestrian
sheds
biking
and
walking
with
some
commercial
within
the
residential
areas.
T4
neighborhood
center
is
slightly
more
intense,
as
we
were
just
talking
on
a
couple
of
items
ago,
so
it
would
allow
a
more
of
a
main
street
feel
of
development
of
mixed-use
development
within
that
area,
and
I
think
rob
mentioned
you
know,
one
of
the
biggest
differences
between
the
two
is
you're
going
from
2.5
stories
allowed
to
four
stories.
AD
So
we
took
a
look
at
this
and
compared
it
to
our
comprehensive
plan,
our
2040
comprehensive
plan.
It
was
one
of
the
first
ones
I
got
to
do
under
the
new
comp
plan
and
looked
at
the
future
land
use
for
this
area
that
is
designated
as
urban
mixed
use.
T4
neighborhood
center
does
fall
within
that
designation,
so
it
is
compatible
with
our
future
land
use
designation.
AD
It
would
not
be
a
split
zoning.
It
is
right
next
door
to
t4
neighborhood
center
and
would
actually-
or
it
would
not
be
a
I'm
sorry-
a
spot
zoning,
but
it
would
help
rectify
what
is
a
split
zoning
and
it
is
appropriate
with
the
surrounding
character
of
the
land.
That
is
a
pretty
mixed
use
area
of
the
corridor,
so
it
wouldn't
really
impact
the
care
character
of
the
surrounding
area.
AD
Water
and
sewer
are
available
to
service
the
property
and
ems
and
fire
facilities
are
within
a
half
mile
of
the
site,
so
they
would
be
served
appropriately
at
the
our
recommendation.
Staff's
recommendation
is
that
it
is
consistent.
We
recommend
approval
of
this
rezoning
request
at
the
december
planning
commission
meeting
the
commissioners
voted
seven
to
two
to
recommend
approval
and
I'm
ready
for
questions.
Okay,.
AD
AD
Yeah,
that's
a
good
question.
So
when
we
were
taking
a
look
at
this,
a
part
of
what
we
need
to
do
is
determine
if
it
triggers
a
tia,
and
so
we
used
the
different
regulations
for
both
zones
and
essentially
came
up
with
a
number
of
about
40
different
units
between
the
two.
If
you're
going
with
the
multi-family
there,
so
between
t4
hamlet
center,
open
to
t4
neighborhood
center
using
your
most
intense
uses,
it
was
about
40
units.
AD
Absolutely-
and
I
don't-
I-
don't-
have
a
number
for
you
for
the
neighboring
property
right
now-
I'd
be
happy
to
look
into
it
and
and
report
back,
but
I
do
know
as
well
that
our
engineering
department
is
working
with
their
on-call
traffic
consultants
to
scope
out
a
scope
and
fee
for
the
bluffton
parkway
to
do
an
access
management
plan
for
this
area.
So
we
are
thinking
about
traffic
impacts
and
those
the
types
of
future
development.
That's
happening
would
certainly
be
considered
within
that.
D
A
D
K
K
A
C
D
U
W
D
E
X
I
think
it
must
be
something
it
must
be
something
with
the
cloud
provider.
Zoom
doesn't
exist
in
beaufort
county,
it's
probably
a
server
in
atlanta
or
something
so
there's.
There
must
be
some
sort
of
connection
from
hilton
head
or
from
bluffton
up
to
that.
That
area
that's
causing
difficulty
because
they
all
have
they
all
have
low
bandwidth
symbols
and
the
odds
of
everybody.
They
are
having
low
bandwidth.
It's
pretty
small,
something
going
on
who's
missing
a
little.
D
C
D
E
D
Or
to
type
it
out,
okay,
all
right,
so
we're
up
to
number
12,
which
is
first
reading
ordinance
for
approval
of
a
zoning
map.
Amendment
requests
for
11.66
acres
at
100
rostrum
race
room.
Am
I
saying
that
right
drive
from
t
to
world
to
t2
rural
neighborhood?
And
this
is
the
one
that
you
were
asking
about-
that
miss
white
spoke
about?
Okay,
all
right.
AC
AC
K
K
D
C
D
D
O
AC
V
J
V
J
D
AA
V
C
W
E
W
E
Because
the
the
planning
commission
has
already
made
their
recommendation
and
that's
what
the
statute
requires
them
to
do
is
make
a
recommendation.
If
you
all
want
them
to
consider
additional
things
based
on
the
additional
information
presented,
then
you
would
actually
have
to
remand
it
back
to
the
planning
commission
for
an
additional
recommendation.
W
W
E
Yeah
this
is
this
is
why
that
it's
very
important
for
those
that
may
be
listening
and
in
the
room
here.
This
is
why
it's
very
important
for
the
applicant,
instead
of
rushing
in,
to
give
a
rezoning
application
to
meet
some
contractual
deadline
for
real
estate
purposes,
and
things
like
that
that
they
wait
until
they
get
all
their
information
together
and
give
us
the
complete
package
that
they
want
county
council
to
consider.
This
is
the
second
one
today,
where
staff
received
an
application
and
the
applicant
started,
sending
us
additional
information
after
they
submitted
their
application.
E
Staff
has
no
ability
to
legally
deny
someone
moving
forward
their
rezoning
application
once
they've
checked
all
the
boxes.
We
have
to
process
it
and
bring
it
before
you
all.
You
all
can
either
defer
it
on
your
own
or
grant
a
request
for
deferral
by
the
applicant,
but
it's
very
important
that
people
who
submit
rezoning
applications
to
the
staff
submit
the
complete
package
with
everything
in
it
before
they
start
getting
in
the
middle
of
this
process.
If
they
don't
have
all
the
information,
then
they
shouldn't
submit
the
rezoning.
W
E
D
D
M
Sarah's
gonna
pull
up
the
this
slide
to
help
illustrate
the
issue
while
she's
doing
that,
though,
I
can
give
you
a
little
bit
of
background
information
at
the
time
of
acquisition,
the
pineview
property
on
ladies
island
and
the
adjacent
vacant.
Private
residents
were
sharing
an
entry
access
drive
when
I.
M
When
I
first
started
looking
at
this
property,
I
thought
that
that
driveway
was
shared.
I
thought
the
parcel
line
was
in
the
middle,
but
after
we
re-looked
at
the
survey,
we
realized
the
driveway
is
fully
on
the
county
property
and
the
previous
landowner
to
pineview
and
the
vacant
resident.
The
the
residents
that
was
vacant
at
the
time
were
actually
sharing
that
drive.
So
the
previous
landowner
was
allowing
that
person
to
utilize
that
driveway
there
it
is
so
the
yellow
section
that
is
outlined
is
roughly
where
that
driveway
is.
M
If
the
parking
lot
got
overflowed,
we
wanted
to
move
the
driveway
for
the
public
access
up
to
where
it's
aligned
across
the
street
from
I
believe
that's
john
calhoun
road
might
be
rotor
street,
so
our
conceptual
plan
shows
that
you
all
were
presented
with
that
conceptual
plan.
I
believe
in
december,
when
the
t1
np
down
zonings
came
before
the
planning
commission
for
discussion.
M

With
that
scenario,
with
those
two
driveways
being
relatively
close
together,
I
did
get
confirmation
from
scdot
doing
doing
a
preliminary
review
of
the
pineview
conceptual
plan
that
they
are
fine
with
our
driveway
for
public
access
and
commercial
use
being
across
the
street
and
aligned
with
john
calhoun.
However,
their
condition
was
you
couldn't
have
two
driveways
on
the
same
parcel,
so
they
said
that
we
would
have
to
remove
the
southerly
driveway.
M
M
The
ordinance.
I
believe
I
state
that,
yes,
we
did
pay
thousand
six
hundred
thirteen
dollars
and
five
cents
per
acre
for
this
particular
property
and
they
have
agreed
to
pay
that
amount
per
acre
basis.
It's
going
to
be
much
less
than
an
acre
of
land,
but
they
did
agree
to
pay
that
amount
to
reimburse
the
program
for
the
amount
that
we're
selling.

This
item
here
is
just
for
discussion.
Only
is
the
current
igas
that
we
have,
in
particular
with
the
city
of
beaufort,
as
well
as
the
town
of
port
royal,
as
it
pertains
to
the
stormwater
utility
looking
at
per
both
of
those
municipalities
request
about
not
pursuing
delinquent
fees
for
the
libertarians
dilute
instant
incident
instance
installations
and
military
properties.
We're
looking
to
amend
the
igas
while
we're
looking
to
mend
it.
We're
also
looking
to
do
some
clarification
and
some
cleanup
and
whatnot,
and
also
add
some
language
about
the
new
ms4
permit.
E
E
I
think
once
we
get
in
the
room
together,
I
think
the
air
station
paris
island
and
I
can
bring
a
proposal
back
to
you
all
that
will
be
equitable
and
everyone's
benefit,
but
we
cannot
do
that
as
long
as
there's
a
potential
legal
action
looming
over
everyone's
head,
so
I've
suspended
that
relationship.
If
we
cannot
come.
E
No,
no!
No!
No!
I
just
want
you
all
to
be
aware
of.
What's
going
on
and
again,
you
know,
just
so
council's
aware:
we've
had
both
of
the
municipalities
that
have
these
properties
inside
their
jurisdiction
have
told
us
that
they
do
not
want
us
to
pursue
any
fees
of
current
or
delinquent,
so
they're
going
to
be
the
ones
to
get
the
fees
anyway,
since
it's
in
their
jurisdiction,
so
yeah.
E
Q
Madam
chairman,
thank
you
for
indulging
me
and
giving
me
a
point
of
personal
privilege.
I
know
it's
not
public
comment
time,
but
this
issue
is
something
I'm
pretty
passionate
about
going
back
before
I
was
mayor
when
I
was
a
council
member.
We
got
word
that
the
county
on
behalf
of
the
city
and
the
town
of
port
royal,
had
engaged
out-of-state
law
firm
to
seek
municipal
stormwater
fees,
and,
while
I'm
appreciative
that
you
acted
on
the
city's
behalf,
we
weren't
aware
that
you
were
taking
that
action.
Q
You
were
a
bit
surprised
that
the
first
course
of
action
was
to
hire
lawyers
and
to
threaten
our
partners
at
dod
who
provide
over
2
billion
worth
of
economic
impact
for
us
annually,
without
maybe
going
down
and
sitting
down
and
having
a
conversation
with
them.
We've
been
in
constant
communication
with
dod
and
local
base
officials,
and
I
think
mr
greenway
hit
the
nail
on
the
head.
Q
It's
hard
for
us
to
go,
have
a
civil
conversation
with
folks
when
what
I'm
told
we've
spent
several
hundred
thousand
dollars
of
in
out
of
state
lawyers
with
public
money
on
something
where
I
think
good
neighbors
go
and
work
with
each
other.
So
I'm
happy
to
hear
that
you
have
withdrawn
the
lawyers.
I'm
happy
to
hear
that
you're
taking.
Q
We
don't
the
city
has
not
said
we're
closing
the
door
completely
to
this,
but
we
would
love
to
sit
down
with
the
county
with
the
folks
at
dod,
with
the
town
of
port
royal,
to
see
if
there
is
some
agreement,
because
we're
told
that
other
communities
around
the
country
have
been
able
to
amicably
reach
agreements
on
these
types
of
structures
and
funding
sources,
and
so
would
welcome
a
continued
conversation.
Thank.
D
You
thank
you
for
the
public's
information.
There's
two
letters
in
the
packet
today,
one
from
the
city
of
beaufort
and
one
from
the
town
of
port
royal
town
report
royal,
as
some
of
you
may
know,
has
annexed
the
naval
hospital
in
paris,
island
city
of
buford
has
annexed
the
air
station,
the
only
property
in
the
unincorporated
areas.
That's
department
of
defense
is
laurel
bay,
which
is
in
the
unincorporated
part
of
the
county.
That's
just
for
the
public's
information.
P
E
When
I,
when
I
use
the
word
temporarily,
that's
not
the
correct
word,
I
have
suspended
the
relationship
with
the
with
the
attorneys
at
this
point,
because
I
don't
I
don't.
I
would
not
recommend
to
you
all
that
we
ever
picked
that
back
up,
regardless
of
what
happens
here
to
your
point,
and
secondly,
is
that
you
know
the
paris
island
and
the
air
station.
E
They
spend
a
bunch
of
money
every
year
doing
their
own
mpds
phase,
2
stuff
on
their
property.
Probably
more
they're
probably
have
a
higher
threshold
for
their
bases
and
things
given
the
type
of
materials
that
are
stored
on
site
than
we
would
for
any
county
property
or
any
any
of
our
of
our
stormwater
facilities.
So
so.
E
I
mean
you
can
kill
it
if
you
want
to.
If
you
want
to
make
a
motion
to
kill
it,
we'll
make
a
motion
to
kill
it
and
we'll
put
the
appropriate
document
on
your
next
council
meeting
to
have
the
full
council
done,
the
air
station
and
paris
allen.
Folks
at
the
mayors
of
port
royal
city
beaufort
and
the
chamber
beaufort
city
chamber,
they
would
love
to
hear
us
do
that.
So
I
would
applaud
you
if
you
want
to
do
that.
AB
Neal's
got
some
more
stuff,
so,
mr
robin
just
to
add
to
that.
Well,
our
goal
today
was
for
information
only
and
the
goal
is
to
bring
back
the
iga
legal
department,
but
the
next
step
is
to
bring
it
to
the
utility
board,
which
is
on
wednesday
afternoon
and
then
from
there.
We
go
through
the
form,
so
they'll.

Thank
you.
He
is
okay.
First
one
we're
gonna,
do

a
motion.
