B
Let
me
call
this
meeting
to
order.
This
is
beaufort
county
public
facilities
monday
may
the
16th
and
call
this
order.
If
you
would
rise
and
join
me
in
the
pledge
of
allegiance,
I
pledge
allegiance
to
the
flag
of
the
united
states
of
america
and
to
the
republic
for
which
it
stands.
One
nation,
under
god
indivisible
with
liberty
and
justice
for
all.
B
B
C
B
D
Report,
yes,
sir,
thank
you
chairman,
ryman
and
appreciate
it.
I
told
my
wife.
I
need
a
new
blue
shirt
so
hope.
Hopefully
it
doesn't
make
anybody
dizzy
staring
at
it
on
the
screen.
She's
only
got
so
many
options.
When
I
give
her
you
can
pick
any
shirt
you
want
as
long
as
it's
blue.
So
just
a
few
updates
things
going
on
in
inside
the
engineering
division
on
transportation,
us
278,
we
are
working
through
trying
to
find
an
additional
get
the
additional
scope
for
the
independent
traffic
going.
D
We
had
a
good
coordination
meeting
with
the
town
of
hilton
head
last
week
and
a
potential
consultant
to
help
us
out
with
that
we're
pretty
close
on
what
that
needs
to
look
like
and
hopefully
that
it
hits
all
the
needs
between
senator
davis
and
the
town
and
everybody
that's
made
comments,
so
we're
working
towards
that.
Hopefully,
that
is
going
to
come
in
for
a
lot
less
than
the
million
dollars
and
the
six
to
nine
month,
timeline
that
was
discussed
previously
when
that
was
introduced
so
more
to
come
on
that
in
capital
projects.
D
Public
works
this
week
is
apwa
accreditation.
So
we
have
an
on-site
accreditation
committee
here,
taking
a
look
at
all
of
our
operations
and
our
functions
inside
public
works.
We're
hoping
for
a
good
report
on
that.
A
lot
of
work
has
gone
through
to
prepare
for
that.
Over
the
last
almost
two
years
we've
been
working
on
compiling
this
and
getting
ready
for
accreditation.
D
We
were
able
to
put
that
project
out
to
bid
as
discussed
previously.
It
went
out
to
bid
on
may
8
and
bids
are
due
back
on
june
9th,
so
our
goal
is
to
have
a
clearer
picture
of
the
overall
cost
and
then
be
in
the
position
to
award
that
project
later
in
the
fall
and
september
time
frame,
so
just
a
quick
update
of
other
projects
that
don't
necessarily
always
make
it
for
approval,
but
just
kind
of
some
things
that
are
going
on
inside
the
engineering
division.
Thank.
B
You
for
your
hard
work-
and
I
guess
the
as
you
put
together
the
contract
for
the
second
independent
review.
That'll
come
back
through
and
whatever
committee
you
can
get
to
first
in
the
interest
of
time
is
probably
going
to
be
okay,
absolutely
even
to
go
directly
council.
Well.
That
takes
us
to
item
number
eight,
which
is
consideration
of
an
ordinance
for
a
sales
tax
referendum
for
transportation
items
potentially
for
this
november.
D
Appreciate
that,
and
so,
first
of
all
in
the
agenda
packets,
one
thing
to
notice:
there's
three
documents
that
attack
committee
put
together:
one
is
a
memo
from
the
chairman
from
dean,
moss
and
he'll,
be
up
here
in
just
a
second
to
present
on
that.
Second,
just
was
a
one
pager,
basically
condensing
the
project
list,
and
then
third
is
an
ordinance
there.
We're
trying
to
put
all
these
documents
with
a
bunch
of
different
people
together
in
short
time
frame.
So
there
was
a
slight
discrepancy
in
there.
So
have
an.
D
D
As
well
as
the
ordinance
were
the
two
that
needed
tweaking,
so
they
all
match
and
we'll
share
that
on
the
screen
when
discussing
as
well
as
send
that
information
out
to
all
after
the
project,
but
just
a
just
a
recap
of
what's
been
going
on
and
where
we
are
so
county
council
commissioned
the
tax
committee
to
be
established.
In
february,
we've
been
working
hard
for
almost
three
months.
D
Staff
worked
really
hard
at
the
beginning
to
get
everybody
moving
forward
and
then,
basically
again,
chairman
dean
moss
really
took
charge
and
and
walked
us
through
and
helped
collaborate
with
all
the
all
the
folks.
It
was
great
discussion
and
I
think
y'all
will
be
well
represented
in
what
he
has
in
the
memo
and
what
what
dean
will
present
with
you
here
today.
So
with
that
dean.
If
you'll
come
forward.
G
I
appreciate
it
I'm
going
to
not
take
you
step
by
step
through
this
memo,
I'm
just
going
to
indicate
that
this
memo
reflects
essentially
the
process
we
went
through
and
I
will
say
a
couple
of
things
and
then
I
then
we'll
work
through
the
project
list.
First,
I
want
to
thank
you
for
the
opportunity
to
do
this.
The
folks
that
were
appointed
by
council
to
help
with
this
were
wonderful.
They
did
a
great
job.
G
A
lot
of
a
lot
of
very
good
thinking
went
into
this
good
attendance
from
members
both
from
the
municipalities
and
from
council
representatives.
I
will
note
we
did
not
get,
but
one
attendee
one
time
from
yemen
see
and
no
one
came
from
hardyville.
So
just
bear
that
in
mind
as
we
go
through
this,
the
the
recommendations
I'm
going
to
present
to
you
were
unanimously
adopted
by
the
group.
There
were
no
abstentions.
There
were
no
objections
or
a
few
things.
G
Approximately
half
of
the
people
on
the
committee
wanted
it
done
right
now.
The
problem
is
too
great.
We're
growing
too
fast.
We've
got
to
do
something
on
the
other.
Half
of
the
committee
basically
said
this
is
absolutely
the
wrong
time
to
do
it.
The
economy
is
lousy,
there's
inflation,
you
have
a
war,
etc,
etc,
etc.
So
a
lot
of
a
lot
of
no
no
agreement.
If
you
look
in
the
memo,
what
you'll
see
is
the
language
we
agreed
to
was
that
the
referendum
question
to
be
placed
upon
the
ballot
at
the
earliest
feasible
date.
G
So
that's
a
political
connection
between
the
two
sides,
but
anyway,
your
charge
to
us
was
basically
to
bring
you
a
proposed
project
list
and
or
categories
for
the
referendum
questions.
Secondly,
the
amount
of
the
sales
tax
to
be
collected,
and
thirdly,
and
or
the
duration
of
the
sales
tax
collection
period.
We
are
recommending
to
you
a
one
percent
sales
tax
to
be
levied
at
the
earlier
voted
on
at
the
earliest
feasible
date
and
then
levied
to
last
for
10
years.
G
G
So
we
looked
and
came
up
with
two
categories
of
projects.
First,
in
our
series
of
specific
projects-
and
I
will
go
through
those
in
a
minute,
but
they
are
the
traditional
approach
that
we've
done
before
so
much
for
this
road
improvement.
So
much
for
you
know
xyz
trails,
so
much
for
fixing
this
problem
over
here,
and
so
we
went
through
that
and
the
projects
that
we
came
up
with
effectively,
if
are
across
the
county,
northern
beaufort
county,
southern
beaufort
county,
and
they
address
the
most
significant
traffic
issues.
G
I
believe
that
we
have
in
the
county
generally
following
the
guidelines
from
the
lats
study,
which
is
done.
That's
the
local
low
country
area
transportation
study
done
by
local,
so
we
stayed
pretty
close
to
their
priority
system
and
we,
we
are
allocating
about
half
the
money
about
220
million
dollars
of
projects
south
of
the
broad
river
about
115
million
north
of
the
broad
river
second
package
were
a
series
of
what
what
for
lack
of
a
better
term,
I'm
going
to
use
the
term
buckets.
G
G
G
G
So
there
are
series
of
those
there's
also
a
recommendation
to
deal
with
mass
transit
issues,
specifically
bus
systems,
but
also
ferry
discussions
in
terms
of
what
we
might
want
to
do
in
the
future
for
fair.
We
do
not
have
plans
for
these
things
yet
so,
essentially
the
essence
of
the
priority
is:
we
ought
to
move
forward
with
some
serious
planning
on
us
on
county-wide,
mass
transit
plus
county-wide
ferry
systems.
G
Looking
at
the
problem
that
we're
facing
from
462
the
intersection
of
462
down
to
278.,
I
know
that
the
county
is
working
on
a
project
to
start
and
kind
of
expand
and
get
ready
to
think
about
that
in
detail.
Right
now.
So,
but
that's
that's
top
of
the
list
because
of
the
impacts
of
traffic
on
that
section
of
the
road
and
they're
just
going
to
get
worse,
and
we
know
this.
G
G
G
There's
a
lot
of
projects
on
the
lat
list
in
the
bluffton
area,
and
many
of
them
are
important.
Some
are
less
important.
Some
are
on
state
roads.
Some
are
on
on
city
streets
whatever,
so
we
are
suggesting
that
a
40
million
dollars
be
put
into
that
fund
and
that
the
town
of
bluffton
go
through
their
priority
list
and
come
back
to
council
with
their
recommendations
for
what
the
priorities
are
in
that
in
that
section.
G
Fourth,
hilton
head
municipal
projects,
us
40
million
dollars
there
again,
the
town
of
hilton
net
has
done
a
lot
of
planning.
They
have
priorities,
and
so
the
recommendation
again
for
us
is
that
you
work
with
the
town
of
hilton
head
island.
Let
them
decide
what
the
priorities
are
for
the
projects
that
they
have
come
back
to
you
with
those
and
then
work
out,
however,
that
business
arrangement
needs
to
be
between
you
278
project
enhancements.
We
have
40
million
dollars
in
there
for
that.
G
There
is
a
lot
of
opportunity
to
improve
that
right-of-way.
It's
not!
I
don't
think
a
question
of
expanding
it
as
much
as
it
is
to
make
it
more
efficient
to
make
it
more
attractive
to
make
it
a
a
more
useful
street.
I
will
give
you
an
example,
since
I'm
resident
of
port
royal
in
about
now
I'd
say
right
now.
G
If
you
try
to
get
from
from
downtown
port
royal
to
ladies
island,
you
will
stand
in
traffic
all
the
way
back
down
to
paris
avenue
in
in
many
cases,
people
trying
to
get
up
and
cross
that
bridge.
We've
got
to
fix
that
problem.
It's
crazy
out
there,
so
that
would
be
also
include
work
on
on
boundary
street
wrapping
around
the
carteret
street,
which
was
basically
highway
21
business
coming
in
and
improving
that
route
again.
G
In
many
cases,
we're
not
talking
about
expanding
things
here,
we're
talking
about
making
the
existing
right-of-ways
more
efficient
and
safer
and
then
finally,
on
major
projects.
Ladies
island
corridor
improvements,
40
million,
as
you
remember,
when
we
did
the
18
bond
issue,
we
had
a
number
in
there
for
for
the
project
those
projects
in
that
area
that
was
woefully
insufficient
for
the
amount
of
expense
that
will
be
incurred
in
developing
that.
So
this
adds
to
that
pot
and
enables
that
project
to
expand
a
little
bit.
G
G
In
addition,
as
I
said,
the
track,
what
we
call
I'm
calling
transportation
improvement
projects,
mass
transit-
we've
got
25
million
dollars
in
there
and,
as
I
said,
a
focus
to
begin
with
on
planning
and
figuring
out
exactly
what
what
the
capital
investments
over
over
the
long
term
need
to
be.
There's
enough
here
to
do
to
do
the
basics,
I
think
to
get
started,
but
we
don't
know
yet,
and
we
won't
know
until
we
do
some
work
on
that
safety.
G
We've
got
50
million
dollars
in
there
for
safety,
general
safety
improvements
along
roadways
and
intersections,
including
pedestrian
accommodations.
There
are
plenty
of
places
in
this
community
where
it
is
unsafe
to
cross
a
street.
You
can't
use
the
streets
separate
parts
of
the
community
in
such
a
way
that
you
can't
get
across,
and
so
this
is.
This
is
one
of
the
reasons
that
these
dollars
are.
There
is
to
figure
out
how
to
solve
those
kinds
of
problems.
I
mentioned
resilience.
G
There's
20
million
dollars
in
there
improvements
to
transportation
infrastructure
prevents
flooding,
sea
level
rise,
storm
water,
drainage
issues,
things
like
that
that
we
know
we're
going
to
have
to
deal
with
going
forward
in
this
county,
dirt
road,
paving
50
million
dollars,
and
there
are
dirt
roads
all
across
the
county.
That
will
need
some
degree
of
of
attention
and
paving
resurfacing
60
million.
G
As
I
said,
all
the
streets
in
the
county,
road
resurfacing,
preservation
of
all
roadways,
state,
county
and
municipally
owned
throughout
the
county,
and
the
goal
is
to
improve
the
old
overall
pavement
condition
of
roads
across
the
county
pathways
50
million
dollars.
As
you
remember,
in
the
18
referendum,
we
had
10
million
in
there
for
that.
That
proved
to
be
again
woefully
short
of
just
simply
doing
the
list
that
council
approved
for
that
referendum.
I
believe
I
believe
we
were
at
least
30
million
short
on
that
on
that
one.
G
In
addition,
the
county
has
approved
now
a
roads.
Excuse
me
a
pathways
and
pedestrian
plan.
So
that
is
a
feeder
into
this
that
we
need
to
look
at
in
terms
of
the
bike
and
pedestrian
plan
that
you
did.
We
suggest,
though,
that
priorities
right
now
be
given
to
those
projects
that
were
promised
in
the
18
referendum
and
have
not
been
completed.
G
G
There's
real
issues
here
to
make
things
move
more
smoothly
and
connect
communities
better
and
major
roads
and
get
traffic
moving
in
different
directions.
Addition.
We
have
transportation
technologies
which
are
coming
along
rapidly,
as
you
can
imagine,
smart
intersections,
where
the
lights
are
timed
based
upon.
Actually
the
line
of
vehicles
at
any
given
intersection
or
lack
thereof,
we've
all
sat
at
lights
when
there's
nobody
coming
the
other
way
and
we're
kind
of
stuck
there
waiting
for
the
light
to
change.
G
The
idea
here
is
that
this
kind
of
thing
gets
fixed
and
then
long-term
demand
reduction,
green
belts
in
the
statute
that
allows
us
to
do
what
we're
doing
there
is
a
use
of
these
funds
for
green
belts,
undefined,
but
charleston's
experience
and
the
experience
in
other
places
in
the
state
indicates
that
in
the
general
sense,
buying
property
and
preserving
it
is
a
reasonable
expenditure
of
these
funds.
We
looked
at
it
a
little
differently.
G
We
looked
at
it
essentially
as
a
way
to
target
key
properties
along
these,
particularly
along
these
major
highways,
so
that
we
can
essentially
start
to
reduce
the
traffic
loads
again
complicated
process,
complicated
project.
But
it's
clearly
one
of
those
things
that
could
help
us
in
the
long
way.
Again
we
recommend
there
and
I'll
get
to
that
that
the
rolling
critical
lands
board
that
already
exists,
and
the
way
it
operates,
is
a
good
way
to
start
to
move
forward.
With
this
project,
we
had
some
additional
recommendations
for
you.
G
G
It
just
depends,
and
we
set
up
suggesting
priority
indexes
for
these
various
parts
of
money.
I
would
suggest
to
you
that
these
big
projects
should
be
revenue
bonded,
the
the
quicker
we
have
these
funds
and
we're
in
a
position
the
better
off.
We
are
the
amount
of
money,
as
we
all
understand
that
is
available
or
coming
available
from
the
federal
government.
Right
now
is
is
huge
and
to
the
extent
we
have
projects
ready
to
go,
we
have
we're
ready
to
move
on
those.
G
G
I
don't
mass
transit
I've
spoken
to
this
before
we
suggest
that
the
existing
transportation
authority
palmetto
breeze,
be
brought
to
the
table
and
work
with
them
to
do
the
planning
necessary
in
mass
transit
so
that
we
integrate
what's
already
out
there
and
what
we,
what
their
plans
are
and
what
they
know.
We
can
do
with
what
our
long-term
plans
are.
G
Again,
I
come
back
to
my
my
first
major
point.
There
was
disagreement
in
the
committee
about
when
we
should
do
this
so
as
you
give
deliberation
to
these
recommendations
and
and
the
determination
of
of
what
and
how
we
should
proceed,
I
want
just
want
you
to
be
aware
of
that.
So,
mr
chairman,
that's
what
I
have
I'll
be
glad
to
answer
any
questions.
Well,.
B
H
Oh,
thank
you,
mr
chairman.
I
didn't
know
I
was
gonna
go
first,
but
I
just
want
to
say
thank
you
for
that.
As
the
chairman
said,
a
very
comprehensive
report,
I
I
am
elated
really
with
the
time
it
took
the
short
time
it
took
you
all
to
put
this
together
and
to
actually
put
some
focus
on
council
in
this
county
in
a
direction
to
pursue.
H
H
So
I
just
don't
like
that
language,
because
I
want
to
make
sure
that
dirt
roads
in
my
district
has
just
equal
chance
of
getting
paid
as
anyone
else
and
not
be
threatened
by
having
to
be
developed
so
this.
So
I
want
to
make
that
comment.
The
other
thing
that
you
have
on
the
resurfacing
60
million
dollars
of
paved
road
in
the
county.
In
parenthesis,
you
have
state
county
and
municipality
your
own
roads.
H
H
I
really
like
the
reverse,
which
we
basically
says,
municipality
county
and
then,
if
anything
left
over
a
state,
I
think
the
state
has
funding
from
all
different
parts
that
they
can
actually
do
their
own
road
and
we
don't
need
to
be
taking
on
state
roads
if
we
don't
have
to
so
I'll.
Just
make
those
comments.
Thank
you,
sir
other
than
that
I'd
like
to
report.
Thank
you.
H
A
I
Thank
you
very
much
for
all
your
work,
not
just
you,
but
all
the
members
of
the
committee.
I
know
it
was
tedious
and
long
and
thank
you
for
that.
I'm
really
excited
that.
You
included
the
the
green
belt
portion
in
there
because
it
dovetails
very
nicely
with
what
we're
trying
to
accomplish
in
terms
of
traffic
and
roads,
because
if
we
spend
it
wisely,
there'll
be
hopefully
less
traffic
in
some
of
those
areas.
So
so
thanks.
Thank
you
for
that.
I
I
know
the
legislature
is
moving
in
that
direction,
trying
to
pass
some
legislation
that
authorizes
a
penny
or
a
half
penny,
or
a
quarter
of
a
penny
or
whatever
for
for
that
same
purpose
stand-alone.
So
this
just
incorporates
it
into
something
else
which
is,
as
you
say,
is
permissible.
So
I'm
really
excited
about
that.
But
thank
you
very
much.
A
C
A
I'm
really
glad
to
see
the
resilience
category
on
there.
I
had
occasion
to
go
out
on
saint
helena
island
with
a
full
moon
saturday,
watching
the
water
rise
past
hunting,
island
and
I've.
Seen
on
the
news
like
tybee
island
they're
having
to
raise
that
road
to
tybee
island,
I'm
assuming
that's
what
this
money
could
be
used
for
with
that
with
those
kind
of
situations.
I.
G
I
would
think
so.
I
think
I
think
it
again.
It's
the
kind
of
thing
that
the
intent
was
to
was
to
protect
us
and
folks
living
in
in
the
county
against
the
flooding
of
streets
and
the
issues
that
that
come
from
that
the
rusting
of
vehicles,
the
risks,
the
danger
and,
in
cases
of
big
storms,
the
conceivable
problem
that
could
be
isolated
and
not
be
able
to
get
off.
Some
of
these
remote
islands.
C
I
J
J
F
I'll
go
stew,
go
ahead,
all
right,
yep
and
I
agree
with
everybody
else.
I
wasn't
sure
what
to
expect
when
you
put
your
community
together,
but
it
is
so
simple,
but
so
detailed
exactly
done
so
I
commend
you
and
I
know
bill
fusion
was
one
of
my
appointees
and
his
eyes
were
opened
whenever
everyone
started
talking
about
it.
So
obviously
we've
spread
this
out
over
the
county.
F
You
know,
and
it
seems
like
there's
more
stuff,
I'm
from
bluffton
more
things
get
spent
in
bluffton
because
that's
where
the
need
is
coming
up,
but
when
you're,
starting
with
the
green
belts
and
things
like
that
where
there
was
any
discussion
of
of
trying
to
get
more
golf
carts
for
a
village
style
kind
of
trips
as
opposed
to
get
people
off
the
roads
or
how
did
y'all.
I
think
that
the.
G
We
did
not
discuss
golf
carts
specifically,
but
I
think
the
notion
on
the
trails
funding
is:
is
it's
a
broad
enough
category
so
that,
to
the
extent
that
there
are
places
where
you
know
a
golf
cart?
A
golf
cart
trail
is
you
know.
The
spanish
moss
trail,
for
example,
is
12
feet
wide
and
that's
used
by
bikes
and
people
all
the
time.
G
That
would
be
sufficient
for
a
golf
cart
for
to
be
able
to
go
this
way.
You
don't
want
to
mix
those
with
the
bikers
and
the
walkers.
But
again
those
opportunities
are
there,
and
I
think
that
there's
there's
money
in
there
for
that
can
be
dealt
with
for
some
of
that,
but
we
did
not
deal
with
specifically.
F
Awesome
and
then
one
one
more
question
that
obviously
everyone
says
we
need
it,
which
that's
something
that
bill
fuse
had
said
when
I
spoke
to
him
and-
and
I
think
we
we
looked
at
before-
that
we
wanted
to
do
it
to
do
it
during
a
a
midterm
or
election
year.
So
if
we
didn't
do
it
this
year,
it
almost
would
have
to
wait
until
the
presidential.
The
24
is
that
kind
of
what
your
thoughts
were.
If
it
wasn't
done
this
year,
yeah.
Nobody.
G
B
G
Absolutely-
and
I
mean
the
way
I
see
it,
it
would
be
you'd
be
spending
the
funds,
in
other
words,
they'd,
come
to
you
and
say:
okay,
we've
looked
at
all
of
our
lats
priorities
and
our
priorities
are
a
b
and
c
or
d
or
whatever,
and
they
would
come
back
to
you
that
would
go
into
your
normal
engineering
review
process
working
cooperatively
with
them,
but
the
projects
would
be
driven
from
here.
That's
how
I
envision
it.
I
can't
dictate
you
can
do
any
damn
way
you
want,
but
that
that
that
would
be
this.
B
The
one
that's
come
up
that
we've
all
talked
about
is
the
5b
as
we're
all
aware,
and
I
do
know
for
speaking
with
eric.
I
know
he
had
that
to
leave.
I
think
the
administration's
stance
would
be
if
5b
was
in
there.
It
makes
it
extremely
difficult
to
pass
the
referendum.
So
I
guess
the
question
is
in
your
theory
of
they
decide
later
on.
Is
that
something
that
would
be
decided
before
we
go
to
referendum
or
would
that
be
on
the
run?
Oh
no,.
G
This
would
be
afterwards.
Okay,
I
mean
the
bottom
line.
Was
we
knew
exactly
what
the
issue
was
with
5b
and
that's
why
it
does
not
say
5b
if
the
council,
if
port
royal
town
I
mean
excuse
me,
bluffton
town
council,
decides
that's
a
project.
They
want
to
follow
up
on.
Well,
that's
a
decision
for
them.
I
I
did
not
want
it
to
be,
have
to
be
a
decision
for
y'all,
because
I
know
that
there's
a
lot
of
strong
feelings
on
it
and
we
don't
need
that
fight
right
now.
B
B
I
think.
Lastly,
I
think
you've
set
up
the
22
versus
24
in
a
in
a
very
creative
way,
and
my
sense
is
that,
as
a
council
we'd
be
better
to
wade
into
the
ordinance
as
you
have
it,
knowing
that
at
some
point,
but
probably
not
at
first
reading,
we
would
have
to
address
that
particular
issue,
but
by
addressing
it
later
in
the
sequence,
we'd
probably
be
smarter.
That
would
be
my
sense,
but
people-
may
I
don't
know
about
that.
B
Secondly,
okay:
well,
we
have
two
seconds
any
further
discussion
on
that,
recognizing
that
our
most
a
lot
of
our
discussion
will
take
place
at
council,
and
it
also
strikes
me
that
it
may
be
necessary,
as
everybody
gets
into
this,
to
have
more
have
another,
potentially
a
workshop
or
a
public
facilities
meeting
just
so
we
get
into
more
detail
than
we
might
otherwise
do
at
a
at
a
council
meeting.
Did
I
see
york.
H
D
I
don't
know
if
I
could
hear
everything
on
that,
but
as
far
as
getting
the
word
out
and
talking
around
the
county,
that
is
something
we're
looking
at
as
staff.
So
in
addition
to
this
meeting
and
then
what
would
be
required
as
three
readings
and
a
public
hearing
for
the
ordinance
staff
would
most
likely
coordinate
with
the
municipalities
and
and
take
the
the
memo
that's
been
written
by
the
tax
committee
and
go
present
that
in
each
of
the
municipalities
over
that
same
six-week
time
period.
So
that's
what
we've
talked
about
internally.
D
B
B
Thank
you
very
much
and
thank
you
very
much
to
the
team
that
was
there.
I
see
craig's
here
I
see
dean's
here
frank
is
here:
if
I'm
missing
anybody,
that
was
members-
and
I
know
the
municipalities
had
an
involvement
in
that
people
there
good
thank
you
for
being
with
us.
Thank
you
for
your
work.
Okay,
let's
move
on
the
next
item
is
update
on
solid
waste.
D
E
E
E
C
B
A
A
D
D
B
B
D
D
This
is
the
intersection
at
the
new
school
there
at
river
ridge
academy
in
hampton
lake
subdivision,
so
we
were
requested
a
while
ago
and
prompted
by
a
school
district
to
investigate
the
possibility
of
installing
a
traffic
signal
at
this
location.
This
is
part
of
our
access
management
plan.
There
is
a
signal
scheduled
to
be
at
this
location
once
it
meets
the
warrants,
so
they
asked
us
to
do
a
signal
warrant,
analysis
of
which
we
did,
and
there
are
a
fair
number
of
kids
that
are
crossing
the
road
right.
There
there's
actually
a
a
guard.
D
D
Normally,
it's
a
six
to
nine
months
lead
time,
but
it's
much
larger
than
that
due
to
the
current
conditions
in
the
economy,
so
we're
going
to
move
forward
with
implementing
temporary
poles
and
design
the
permanent
poles
in
tandem,
but
in
doing
that,
we're
also
working
not
only
on
the
design
but
the
right-of-way
acquisition.
At
the
same
time,
so
we
have
to
acquire
a
little
bit
of
right-of-way
on
each
side
of
bluffton
parkway
on
the
hampton
lakes
and
on
the
school
property.
D
The
final
acreage
is
not
a
major
amount
of
acreage
and
the
final
cost
is
yet
to
be
determined.
But
this
resolution
is
to
authorize
the
county
administrator
to
execute
those
documents
once
once
determined.
This
would
all
be
paid
out
a
bluffton
road
impact
fee
balance,
which
has
a
current
balance
of
close
to
four
million
dollars.
D
B
D
D
This
is
recommendation
of
award
of
boundary
street
and
rebo
road
signal
time
and
crash
analysis.
So
this
is
a
commitment
out
of
our
boundary
street
plan.
We
had
a
tiger
grant
which
had
several
performance,
metrics
reporting
required
over
the
five
years
there
after
the
project
is
completed,
so
just
with
anything
engineering,
we
know
how
to
make
it
difficult.
D
A
D
That
is
the
controlling
signal
for
all
these
signals,
as
outlined,
so
the
major
factor
was
just
for
the
l
shape,
but
then,
if
we're
going
that
far,
it
made
sense
to
us
to
continue
down
boundary
street
to
all
the
way
to
charles
there's,
two
additional
signals
in
that
direction
and
then
as
well,
there's
one
more
signal
on
rebo
at
paris
avenue
so
we'll
be
looking
at
20
signals
at
all
and
then
whatever
retiming
or
upgrades
are
required
will
be
implemented
from
that.
So
all
in
all
we
have.
D
D
D
D
So
one
is
the
capacity
actually
increased
and
I
drive
on
that
each
day.
So
I
seem
to
think
there
is
there's
a
lot
of
traffic
out.
There.
Second
is
probably
even
bigger.
Is
safety
component
that
was
a
major
component
with
the
median
making
the
divided
median
there.
So
the
signals
will
be
looked
at
that
there's
a
few
other
metrics
that
get
into
level
of
service
as
far
as
level
service
for
not
only
vehicles
but
for
pedestrians
and
for
bicyclists.
B
D
D
D
The
final
price
is
just
an
estimated
price,
because
this
is
based
off
unit
rates
and
actual
tonnages,
so
the
final
tonnage
is
or
the
final
estimated
cost
that
we
have
budgeted
is
one
million
eight
hundred
and
thirty
thousand
dollars.
This
would
be
for
a
three
year
initial
term
and
then
two
or
two
the
option
for
two
additional
annual
renewals
republic
services
was
the
low
bidder
and
they
would
be
recommended
for
the
contract
as
presented.
B
D
Happen
so
those
are
actually
separate,
so
we
separate
our
recycling
calling
from
our
waste
tall,
and
so
this
is
just
household
waste.
Recycling
hauling
also
has
the
component
of
processing
and
marketing.
So
that's
the
reason
we
separate
that
that's
that
contract
and
we'll
get
into
that
in
the
next
item
is
due
for
renewal
at
the
end
of
next
year.
Okay,.
C
B
B
D
All
right,
this
is
the
recommendation
of
war
for
the
design
and
engineering
of
the
material
recovery
facility,
our
murph.
So
as
cindy
mentioned
in
our
updated
man,
updated
solid
waste
management
plan,
one
of
the
components
that
we've
been
talking
a
lot
about
is
our
material
recovery
material
recycling
facility.
Excuse
me
so
we
came.
D
I
believe
it
was
in
march
earlier
to
pfc
to
talk
about
a
sustainability
report
or
suitability
report
that
we
have
worked
on
previous
part
of
last
year
and
our
task
at
that
time
was
to
the
consultant
to
find
us
a
40
or
50
acre
site
somewhere
south
of
the
broad
that
we
could
host
all
of
our
sustainability
campus,
so
material
or
recycling
composting
transfer
station.
Everything
that
we
have
imagined
in
one
site.
D
So
the
idea
that
they
happen
to
be
at
the
same
park
is
not
a
necessity,
so
we
took
a
different
approach
and
started
looking
at
that
in
regards
to
some
of
the
properties
that
we
already
owned
and
what
we
came
up
with
is
also
between
looking
at
other
other
counties,
particularly
charleston
county.
They
have
a
really
really
large
facility
which
they
intend
to
use
as
a
multi-use
or
a
multi-county
facility,
but
it's
much
bigger
and
much
larger
than
our
needs,
so
they're
they're
not
even
running
full
capacity
at
their
facility.
D
D
B
A
D
D
Yes,
yeah,
I
mean
anything
that
we're
going
to
to
do,
especially
in
the
vein
of
solid
waste.
Is
we're
going
to
try
to
do
it
in
the
most
environmentally
sensitive
way?
So,
if
there's
measures
that
we
can
do
to
make
this
as
green
as
possible,
both
with
our
power
collection,
whether
that's
solar
or
our
storm
water,
we'll
definitely
take
a
look
at
that
during
the
design
process.

All
right
the
only
I've
got
this
is
in
my
district,
exactly
where
it
is
again,
there's
no
residential
homes.
There.
I
asked
you
before
about
noise.
You
said
there
shouldn't
be
any
noise.
The
only
thing
that
I
can
see
as
a
negative-
and
I
don't.
How
do
you
figured
out
but
you're,
a
much
smarter
guy
than
I
am,
is
actually
the
traffic
that's
going
to
have
to
go
down
those
those
two
lane
roads
from
any
direction.
