You
do
yes,
I
will
good
afternoon
we'll
do
row,
roll
call
in
council
chambers.
First
to
this
meeting
I
have
on
my
right.
Councilman
york,
glover
is
present
myself,
alice
howard
and
to
my
left
is
chairman,
joe
passaman
and
online.
We
have.
If
you
will
identify
yourself.
I
will
call
you
out.
Councilman
somerville,
councilman
cunningham
is
here
and
I
think
that's
it
yeah,
mr
mcgowan,
is
he
on.
A
D
A
A
F
Go
over
a
couple
updates
for
the
stormwater
and
the
projects
that
we
have
kind
of
online
right
now:
the
brewer
memorial
construction
project,
which
is
on
ladies
island
right
at
the
foot
of
the
bridge
or
a
little
bit
past.
The
foot
of
the
bridge
construction
continues
and
it
looks
like
we
are
online.
The
main
connection
from
the
street
to
the
park
has
been
established
and
the
contractors
working
on
the
layout
and
stabilizing.
The
final
lot
looks
like
we're
on
schedule
for
that
one.
F
Evergreen,
regional
pond
is
the
pond:
that's
the
right
past
the
278
interchange
on
170
before
you
get
to
46..
This
is
a
319
grant.
Project
and
dot
has
finally
approved
an
amendment
to
a
utility
conflict
looks
like
we're
going
to
be
on
track
to
complete
about
mid-may,
which
will
be
in
line
as
the
grant
finishes
up
end
of
july.
So.
A
F
Drainage
project,
our
consultant,
has
completed
all
the
field
work
and
we're
working
on
now.
The
model
itself
staff
is
meeting
with
the
consultant
this
week
to
go
over
some
changes
and
or
comments,
and
how
to
formulate
that
model
and
to
finalize
it
all
the
field
work
and
the
related
efforts
going
to
be
completed
prior
to
the
end
of
this
fiscal
year.
Okay,.
F
Okay,
all
right
next
one
is
the
arthur
horn
park,
so
staff
has
submitted
application
for
a
319
grant
for
this
one.
It's
currently
in
the
approval
process,
and
we
are
currently
looking
at
plans
to
improve
the
drainage
for
this
area,
but
also
the
water
quality.
That's
eventually
going
into
the
park,
so,
hopefully
fingers
crossed,
we
get
the
grant
and
we
can
proceed
next.
One
is
the
lady
design,
drainage
study.
Our
consultant
has
begun
all
the
field
work
with
this
project.
A
A
A
A
A
E
B
C
A
B
C
A
D
A
A
Okay,
let
me
read
the
others
and
then
we'll
open
it
up
for
questions.
In
case
number,
nine
is
recommend
approval
of
the
stormwater
utility
moa,
with
the
town
of
port
royal,
for
an
amount
of
two
thousand
eight
hundred.
Ninety
eight
dollars
and
number
ten
is
recommend
approval
of
the
stormwater
utility
memorandum
of
agreement,
moa
with
the
town
of
bluffton
for
ten
thousand
nine
hundred
and
sixty
two
dollars
and
number
11
is
approval
of
the
stormwater
moa
with
the
town
of
hilton
head
for
26
829.
A
D
F
What
they
do
is
the
agent
then
comes
and
helps
with
all
of
our
education
materials
as
they
get
dispersed
through
the
schools,
but
they
also
come
and
attend
any
of
the
local
events
or
festivals
and
things
of
that
nature.
We
also
put
out
a
campaign
either
through
billboards
or
other
printed
material,
to
try
to
reach
out
in
some
of
the
outreach
we
also
kind
of
schedule,
creek
sweeps
and
things
of
that
nature
very
similar
to
what
they
do
for
highway
sweeps
and
and
whatnot.
So.
F
A
With
no
objections,
all
four
will
be
approved,
and
this
can
this
is
at
the
committee
level.
I
think
we
don't,
or
does
it
have
to?
No,
it
has
to
go
full
count
right.
Okay,
full
council,
all
right!
Thank
you.
That's
great!
All
right.
The
next
thing
is
number
12
recommendation
for
contract
award
for
white
health
park
white
hall
park
phase
one
construction,
zero,
three,
zero
one,
two
two.
G
G
Afternoon
so
we
completed
the
conceptual
plan
for
whitehall
park
in
december
2020,
which
I
presented
to
this
committee
in
full
council
in
early
2021
during
the
2021
calendar
year,
wooden
partners
and
county
staff
finalized
the
first
phase
of
the
construction
plans,
so
that
includes
the
entrance.
The
parking
lot,
the
multi-use
trail
that
connects
the
causeway
and
the
recently
completed
boardwalk
project
down
through
to
the
adjacent
neighbors
development,
picnic,
pavilion
and
restrooms.
G
What
it
does
not
include
is
a
dock
and
pier
observation
platform
and
some
various
other
small
amenities.
So
we
decided
to
try
and
go
out
for
bid
and
see
how
much
all
that
would
cost.
We
had
an
engineer's
estimate
and
we
received
two
bids
and
nick's
construction
is
the
apparent
low
bidder
at
one
million,
five
hundred
and
thirty
seven
thousand
dollars.
G
We
also
wanted
to
accept
their
alternate
bid
price
for
a
pervious
concrete
drive
aisle
instead
of
a
gravel
dry
vial,
which
would
add
135
000
to
that
project
cost,
and
that
is
more
for
a
maintenance
issue.
A
gravel
drive
aisle
is
a
little
bit
harder
to
maintain
to
keep
the
turning
radiuses
smooth.
So
pervious
concrete
is
the
preferred
choice,
but
we
weren't
sure
quite
how
much
that
would
cost,
and
then
there
is
a
15
contingency
that
we'd
like
to
add
to
this
project.
G
Due
to
the
amount
of
the
project
cost,
we
felt
15
was
a
better
percentage
than
10,
and
so
that
would
add
another
250
800
to
that
cost.
So
the
total
project
cost
would
be
1
million
two
thousand
eight
hundred
dollars.
This
is
almost
twice
what
we
anticipated
so
because
of
that
we
did
have
funding
available.
G
There's
four
hundred
and
twenty
six
thousand
eight
hundred
and
twenty
eight
dollars
currently
available
in
the
whitehall
park
capital
account
that
was
allocated
by
county
council
some
time
ago
because
of
our
engineer's
estimate
and
what
I
had
available.
I
applied
for
an
a
h
tax
grant
for
the
amount
of
560
478
dollars
and
that
was
approved
by
county
council
on
march
28th,
so
I'm
anticipating
that
amount
that
leaves
a
shortfall
of
935
000
in
some
change.
G
G
I
would
like
to
re-allocate
the
shortfall
amount
from
the
ot
march
project
to
the
white
hall
park
park
project.
I
could
still
have
funding
available
in
oak
t
marsh
to
do
a
conceptual
plan
next
fiscal
year,
but
also
because
of
the
timber
harvest
that
I'm
doing
on
the
property.
I
wouldn't
be
able
to
actually
do
any
development.
A
C
C
G
E
G
G
G
C
G
The
developers
plans
have
the
existing
whitehall
drive
being
completely
eliminated
and
they're
they're,
installing
a
new
right
and
right
out,
drive
off
of
21
and
then
there's
also
a
road
that
will
have
a
left
and
a
right
turn
off
of
meridian
coming
into
their
development.
So
we
actually
have
access
easements
across
their
property
and
across
his
roads
in
order
to
get
the
park
traffic
from
both
of
those
roads
into
our
entrance,
which
is
on
the
south
east
side
of
the
property.
G
And
then
at
the
top
of
the
property,
parallel
with
21
is
the
multi-use
pathway
and
so
that'll
be
able
to
be
used
by
people
regardless
of
time
of
day.
So
folks
could
be
downtown,
you
know
after
hours
and
then,
if
they
wanted
to
walk
or
bike
home,
you
know
they
could
come
across
the
bridge
and
come
across
our
pathway
instead
of
staying
on
the
road
if
they
wanted
to
if
they
were
biking
or
pedestrians.
So
the
boardwalk
connects
to
the
multi-use
pathway.
G
D
C
C
The
way
it's
designed
has
always
been
an
issue
for
me
because
it
doesn't.
It
doesn't
look
like
it's
a
public
park.
It
looks
like
a
private
park
and
I
I
just
want
to
make
sure
that
the
public
feels
that
they
can
go
to
this
park
now,
if
you
make
it
just
during
the
day,
it's
going
to
restrict
a
lot
of
people
who
may
want
to
enjoy
this
park.
G
G
C
E
B
G
Those
hours
could
be
correct.
Yes,
if
they
have
a
permit,
then,
and
then
the
city
of
beaufort,
in
our
lease
agreement
with
them,
they
are
to
maintain
the
event
calendar,
and
so
they
actually
all
any
funding
for
any
of
the
events,
goes
to
the
city
so
that
they
can
use
that
for
maintenance
of
the
park.
Okay,
very
good.
C
A
D
Thank
you,
madam
chairman,
just
quick
question
and
crush
my
own
memory.
First
money
that
is
currently
in
the
account
for
okay
march.
One
question
one
would
be:
where
did
that
money
come
from
originally
and
two?
What
was
that
original
project
going
to
be?
I
know
we're
putting
out
a
hole
because
of
the
timber
which
makes
sense
get
our
money
to
work,
I'm
all
for.
I
just
wanted
the
refreshment
memory
for
that.
G
D
Just
what
was
the
original
project,
because
I
I
didn't
remember,
voting
on
it
myself
and
obviously
it
was
before
I
came
on
council.
It
looked
like
it
was
2019..
I
was
just
curious
what
the
original
project
the
idea
was.
I
will
tell
you
I'll
support
the
motion.
The
funding.
You
came
up
with
the
design
originally
for
those
funds
to
go.
We
trust
you,
then.
I
think
we
should
trust
you
now.
Thank.
G
You,
sir,
the
the
original
project
out
there
actually
has
yet
to
be
determined
I
do
have.
I
will
maintain
a
small
amount
that
I
can
use
for
a
conceptual
plan,
because
I
still
would
like
to
create
a
conceptual
plan,
but
it
would
be
similar
to
all
the
other
passive
parks
with
an
entrance
previous
parking
picnic,
pavilion
trails,
whether
there's
a
kayak
launch
or
not,
whether
there's
other
amenities,
wildlife
blinds
or
not.
You
know
that
depends
on
what
the
public
input
is
is
during
the
surveys
and
input
sessions.
G
A
Councilman
somerville:
are
you
able
to
talk
to
us
and
you
had
your
hand?
No
okay,
all
right
he's
having
difficulties
with
that
any
other
questions
before
we
entertain
a
motion
to
move
this
forward
to
full
counsel.
Were
you
I
had
one
question:
were
you
disappointed?
We
only
had
two
bids
or
are
not
surprised.
I.
G
A
I
saw
council
and
councilman
glover
will
second
that
motion
so
councilman
logan
cunningham
made
the
motion
and
captain
glover
seconded
without
objection.
We
will
move
this
forward
to
full
council
to
begin
more
work
on
this
project.
It's
my
understanding.
The
boardwalk
is
not
open
to
the
public
yet
correct,
and
but
it's
but
it
is
I've
heard
so
many
people
say
how
nice
it
is.
G
G
So
they
decided
to
go
ahead
and
keep
it
closed
until
the
park
is
finished
and
just
as
an
fyi,
we
do
have
a
very
tight
timeline
on
the
park.
Construction
because
of
the
nesting
bald
eagles.
So
between
may
and
september,
is
when
the
heavy
work
is
going
to
be
done
and
then
in
the
fall
they
can
do
the
smaller
stuff,
like
the
interior
work
and
the
in
the
fencing
things
that
don't
take
heavy
equipment
or
a
lot
of
ground
ground
moving.
So
hopefully,
early
next
year,
we'll
be
able
to
open
it
and.
A
A
Great
great
all
right,
we
have
number
13,
which
is
recommend
approval
of
reappointments
of
kenneth
frazier
and
ford
beth.
The
follow
if
I'm
saying
that
right
to
ruin
critical
lands,
preservation
board
with
an
expiration
date
of
2026,
and
then
we
have
number
14,
which
is
recommend
approval
of
the
appointment
of
dennis
neilson,
neil
neissen
edd,
to
the
beaufort
county
zoning
board
of
appeals
for
a
partial
term
appointment
with
expiration
date
of
2024..
