A
A
Okay,
now
we're
not
echoing
the
roll
call
has
been
taken
by
me.
You,
as
you
can
see.
Everyone
is
on
the
Deus
but
one
person,
and
that
one
person
is
the
vice
chair,
Mr
McClellan,
who
I
believe
is
going
to
be
online.
So
we
do
have
everyone
here
to
take
the
business
of
County
Council.
Will
you
please
rise
for
the
Pledge
of
Allegiance
and
then
please
remain
standing
for
the
invocation
by
councilwoman
Howard
I
pledge
allegiance
to
the
flag
of
the
United
States
of
America
and
to
the
Republic
for.
C
A
Public
notification
of
this
meeting
has
been
published,
posted
and
distributed
in
compliance
with
the
South
Carolina
Freedom
of
Information
Act
may
I
have
a
member
of
council
move
and
second
the
approval
of
tonight's
agenda.
Some
of
Mr
Dawson
makes
the
motion
I'll
second,
that
Miss
tabernick
makes
the
second
duly
motioned
and
seconded
any
questions.
A
A
D
D
E
D
Our
audience,
and
also
those
that
are
watching
us
through
the
YouTube
channel
online,
as
I
normally
do
I'm
going
to
introduce
a
couple
of
employees,
one
that
has
been
with
us
for
some
time
and
then
one
that
is
fairly
new
to
the
County
government,
working
as
a
public
official,
but
not
new
to
County
government,
because
the
person
has
been
a
long-standing
volunteer
here
in
the
county.
The
first
person
we're
going
to
introduce
tonight
I
was
unable
to
attend,
but
it
works
in
our
Parks
and
Recreation
Department.
His
name
is
Alfonso
Brown.
D
He
is
a
crew
leader
he's
been
with
us
for
14
years
and
he
oversees
the
ground's
maintenance.
Crew
He
is
an
extremely
dedicated
employee,
takes
pride
in
working
for
the
county
and
always
comes
to
people's
rescue
when
needed
and
pitches
in.
We
are
sad
to
report
and
we
offer
our
condolences
to
Alfonso
and
his
family.
He
just
recently
lost
his
only
son
in
a
car
accident.
F
D
In
our
thoughts
and
our
prayers
right
now
and
we'll
welcome
him
back
after
he
and
his
family
have
an
appropriate
amount
of
time
to
grieve
the
loss
of
that
I
can't
even
imagine
what
invest
like
so
anyway.
I
have
it
on
one
daughter.
So
anyway,
moving
on
I
want
to
introduce
you
all
to
our
veterans
affairs
director,
who
has
only
been
appointed
by
the
state
delegation
to
serve
in
that
position.
D
D
She
has
served
in
a
wide
variety
of
assignments
within
the
operating
forces
of
the
fleet,
Marine
Force,
ranging
from
Platoon
Commander
operations,
officer
and
protocol
officer
to
director
of
personnel
at
U.S,
Central
Command
due
to
an
accident
Caroline,
was
medically
retired
in
2011
as
a
lieutenant
colonel
after
25
years
of
service.
She
is
the
new
Director
of
Veterans
Affairs
for
Beaufort.
G
D
Her

the

medal,
the

awards,
the
joint
con
Commendation

Marine

She
is
very
active
in
her
community
where
she
served
as
commissioner
for
the
Beaufort
County
Planning
Commission
and
did
a
excellent,
excellent
job.
The
Metropolitan
Planning
Commission
and
the
voter
registrations
and
elections.
Commission
I'm
sure
she
did
a
great
job
there.
I
just
am
more
familiar
with
her
role
on
the
Planning
Commission.
D
She
is
also
a
board
member
for
the
Beaufort
County
Chamber
of
Commerce,
the
military
enhancement
committee
and
the
community
defense

Lastly,
she

military's
office,
Association
of
America,
reads:
Across
America
and
participate
in
the
Wounded
Warrior
program
fly
and
Congressional
team.
D
She
really
rehabilitates,
Wildlife
I,
think
there's
some
raccoons
or
something
involved
in
that
she
has
married
Tim,
Harrington
and
both
out
a
set
of
twins.
Caroline's
Sons
is
that
Karen
Kalyn
and
Logan
and
Tim's
daughter,
Savannah
and
Caitlin.
All
four
were
born
in
1997..
Carolyn
also
has
two
grandsons
Matthew
and
Cooper,
so
I'm
going
to
turn
the
mic
over
to
you
now.
D
I
cannot
tell
you
personally
how
static
I
am
that
you
got
that
position
after
working
with
you
on
the
Planning
Commission
for
so
long
well
deserved.
It
was
a
great
choice
by
our
delegation
and
I
look
forward
to
assisting
you
with
whatever
you
need
for
the
Veterans
Affairs
office.
So
you
can
have
the
mic.
E
The
last
thing
is
the
amount
of
veterans
that
we
that
are
receiving
benefits
that
has
a
huge
economic
economic
impact
to
Beaver
County
they're
spending,
an
upwards
of
a
million
dollars,
that's
injected
back
into
our
economy,
there's
also
a
non-monetary
benefits
such
as
health
care,
job
training,
job
placement,
burial
services
and
education.
So
our
veterans
are
going
to
TCL
they're,
going
to
USC
Beaufort
and
I'd
like
to
exploit
most
more
of
those
benefits
so
that
we
can
truly
have
a
healthy
veteran
population
in
Beaufort
County
with
that.
E
E
D
Great
recognition
anyway,
so
two
other
things
that
I
need
to
mention
to
you
all.
On
June
23rd,
we
were
awarded
12
million
dollars
of
a
direct
appropriation
from
the
state
of
South
Carolina
through
the
Essie
Aeronautics
commission
toward
our
Hilton
Head
Island
airport
terminal
project
Improvement
project.
The
award
is
a
100
Grant
with
no
local
match.
We
intend
to
execute
this
agreement
to
meet
the
deadline
and
then
bring
a
resolution
to
the
finance
committee
in
August
if
necessary.
D
If
you
all,
if
some
of
you
all
recall
last
year
in
the
budget
ordinance,
we
inserted
language
in
that
ordinance.
That
said,
if
a
grant
had
no
local
match
or
no
physical
impact
to
the
county,
the
County
Administrator
could
automatically
accept
those
grants.
I'm
just
informing
you
tonight
that
I
plan
to
accept
this
12
million
dollar
Grant,
because
it
gets
us
a
lot
closer
to
closing
the
gap
on
what
we
need
and
what
we
were
funded.
D
Okay,
the
process
by
which
they
go
through
getting
that
permit
is
either
by
special
use,
which
requires
a
public
hearing
that
it
gives
adjacent,
Property,
Owners
or
members
of
a
community
a
voice
and
whether
or
not
that
special
use
should
be
approved.
The
zoning
board
of
appeals,
here's
those
special
use,
requirements
that
hold
a
public
hearing.
They
take
into
account
all
of
the
things
that
have
been
said
by
the
applicant
and
information
and
evidence
presented
at
the
public
hearing,
and
then
they
make
a
determination
based
on
findings
of
fact
and
matters
of
law.
D
D
The
other
process
that's
available
for
folks
to
follow
to
get
a
short
terminal
permit
happens
in
the
higher
densities,
only
districts
that
allow
both
commercial
and
residential
uses-
and
that
is
just
a
permitted
use
and
those
only
occur
in
the
commercial
areas
of
defusky
Island
and
the
commercial
area
C4
and
C5
of
Beaufort
County
unincorporated
areas.
So.
D
If
they
come
in
and
say,
I
want
a
short-term
rental
permit
and
they're
in
a
c4
zoning
category
staff
handles
that
permit
internally
and
they
issue
the
permit
through
our
normal
staff
review
team
process.
It
does
not
require
public
Hearing
in
those
two
cases,
so
the
reason,
the
difference.
The
difference
is
in
more
residential
areas,
there's
a
higher
standard
of
review
to
make
sure
that
short-term
rentals
is
appropriate
for
that
community
in
that
location,
and
things
like
that,
so
I
will
answer
any
questions
about
that.
D
A
I
H
It's
Proclamation,
whereas
Africans
began,
arriving
on
sea
Islands
in
the
1500s
and
whereas
the
population
of
these
Africans
increase
as
cattle
enslavement,
Channel
enslavement
grew
in
the
1600s
and
whereas
these
Africans
began
to
engage
with
and
in
some
instances
created
families
with
indigenous
Americans
in
the
region
and
whereas
the
descendants
of
this
group
are
called
gulligichi.
And
whereas
this
group
of
self-sufficient
people
came
together
in
1999
throughout
the
Seattle
and
the
low
country
of
the
Carolinas,
Georgia
and
Florida
to
stand
on
their
human
rights
to
self-determination.
H
And
whereas
this
group
took
one
year
to
elect
their
own
leader
and
whereas
the
selected
installed,
Saint,
Helena,
Island
native
and
family
roots
stems
stem
from
the
palawana
and
Doctor
Islands.
Queen
quit
chiefess
of
the
girl,
DJ
nation
and
whereas
Queen
queer
has
served
as
the
official
help
on
the
body.
Okay
and
spokesperson
for
govern
Ichi
since
July,
the
2nd
2000
and
whereas
go

get
you

H
I
All

Thank

This

Glady

this

for
all

them
hard
on
you.
I

get
your
picture
with
me,
especially
from
Santana.
Please

Tell
Nolan

E
I
Man,

so
this
year,
yeah,
we
glad

one
more
again,
not

town
in
Beaufort
County

Gullah

It's
been
over
a
decade
of
Celebration,
but
we

gladly

For
the
first
time
we

nation
appreciation
week

the
Penn
Center

landmark
historic

Reconstruction
Era
National
Historical
Park.
I
I
Helena
Island
folks
I
know
a
lot
of
you
just
moved
here,
but
for
the
last
six
months,
you've
heard
our
island
name
a
lot.
You've
read
it
a
lot.
So
we
hope
that
you
will
come

and

with
us

historic
Legacy
as
galagichi's.
They

on
Saint,
Helena,
Island,

I
We

Come
Community,

and
so
we'll

So

I
Not

and
so
they
are
proud,
but
they
can't
be
prouder
than
we
are,
and
the
only
thing
I
want
to
correct.
Y'all
is
I.
Don't
know
why
this
don't
also
mention
my
family
roots
on
Saint,
Helena
and
I.
Don't
know
why
y'all
Miss
valgichi

that
agenda
today,
but
for
the
official
record
ain't,
no
eye
and
geech
here
for
the
week.
Okay,.
I
That
on
the
record,
but
we're
so
thankful
to
Beaufort
County
for
continuing
to
celebrate
so
tomorrow
night
I
will
be
at
the
Port
Royal,
no
Beaufort
the
city
meeting
and
then
Wednesday
evening.
I
will
be
at
the
Port
Royal
town
meeting
to
also
receive
the
proclamation
so
in
advance.
I
thank
all
of
them
and
no
Atlantic
Beach
wanted
me
there
tonight,
I
told
them
I
can't
leave
them
account.
I
got
to
come
down
here
and
get
this
year
for
all
a
week.
So
for
my
ancestors,
my
elders,
my
community,
my
family.
Thank
you.
I
A
J
Good
evening
good
evening
for
the
opportunity
to
speak
tonight,
good
to
see
you,
the
ability
for
residents
to
make
public
comment
regarding
a
business
being
proposed
in
their
Community
is
critical.
Short-Term
rentals
are
important
in
our
area,
there's
the
lifeline
wherever
we're
a
vacation
area,
but
they
are
also
businesses.
The
homes
in
the
historic
district
of
the
busky
island
rely
exclusively
on
septics
and
Wells.
Therefore,
Public
Safety
is
a
large
concern,
as
well
as
the
quality
of
life
issues.
J
Dafusky
Island
code
committee
felt
that,
after
hearing
public
comments,
the
zoning
board
of
appeals
should
have
jurisdiction
regarding
the
number
of
rentals
in
a
neighborhood,
a
consistent
policy
for
short-term
rentals
and
unincorporated
unincorporated
areas
of
Beaufort
County
is
needed.
This
has
been
a
long
hard
year
and
a
half
for
the
residents
of
dubosky
I
hope
that
you
will
continue
to
support
a
special
use
process
for
short-term
rentals
and
I
really
want
to.
J
K
K
I
believe
that,
with
the
process
we
have
put
forward
as
it
stands,
that
is
the
best
option
and
best
compromise
for
dabusky
Island.
This
Earth
Shoe
is
very
personal
to
me.
My
husband
and
I
had
an
STR
on
Hilton
Head
for
20
years,
so
I
do
understand
the
financial
aspects
of
this
process.
I
understand
the
business
of
using
your
home
as
a
money
generating
asset
and
I
am
not
against
it.
K
However,
I'm
also
very
passionate
about
the
public
component
for
future
scrs
I
believe
that
Community
input
is
critical,
our
right
to
speak
as
the
wife
of
almost
40
years
to
a
reconnaissance,
Marine,
Corps
veteran
and
a
special
forces.
Army
reservist
I
hold
fast
to
the
basic
rights
and
freedoms
that
we
all
enjoy
the
ability
to
use
our
voices
to
participate.
K
That
was
my
husband's
platoon.
Only
a
paperwork
glitch
prevented
him
for
being
one
of
the
Dead.
That
day
in
the
coming
days,
we
sat
on
his
mother's
house
on
her
sofa
as
the
names
of
the
Dead
and
he
had
served
with
scrolled
across
the
TV
screen
when
I
hear
from
others
that
our
voices
should
be
silenced
because
it's
inconvenient
it's
uncomfortable,
it
might
cause
division,
I,
think
about
that
day
and
I.
Think
about
those
men
who
died
for
Islanders.
The
Str
topic
is
personal
I.
Unlike
other
places,
we
see
each
other
regularly.
K
K
L
L
You've
helped
me
learn
that
is
important
to
consider
all
points
and
and
hearing
everybody
out
and
that
it
can
be
done
in
a
way
that
lets
everyone
feel
that
they've
been
hurt
watching
your
Council
in
action
has
helped
me
be
a
better
advocate
for
the
debusky
community.
As
far
as
the
Str
proposal,
two
weeks
ago,
you
approved
Mr
Lawson's
Amendment,
taking
out
the
requirement
for
Building
Inspections
every
three
years
and
we'd
like
to
thank
you
for
that.
L
If
you
hadn't
approved
that
Amendment,
the
fusky
would
be
the
only
place
in
Beaufort
County
that
would
have
that
requirement.
I've
had
I've
handed
out
a
summary
by
Chuck
Lewis
and
the
fusky
Builder.
That
includes
the
process
for
a
certificate
of
occupancy,
and
we
think
that
this
long
list
of
inspect
of
inspections
for
a
CL
is
more
than
enough
to
guarantee
safe
structure.
L
Finally,
the
SDR
proposal
is
definitely
better
than
it
started.
We
don't
think
it's
perfect,
but
thanks
to
you,
it
is.
It
is
much
better.
We
have
been
told
that
it
isn't
a
one-off
and
that
you
plan
to
keep
an
eye
on
it
and
may
make
changes
in
the
future.
Some
of
you
have
also
said
that
you
will
work
to
make
sure
the
scr
permitting
process
is
user
friendly
and
not
only
or
and
not
one.
That
includes
a
bunch
of
red
tape.
L
That's
good
news
and
we
pledge
our
support
for
your
community
involvement
and
this
issue,
that's
so
important
to
our
community.
Finally,
I'm
the
chair
of
the
council's
communications
committee,
the
other
two
members,
John
and
Taylor-
are
that
I
mentioned
earlier
are
also
a
part
of
it.
One
of
our
committee
goals
is
to
improve
Communications
in
the
county.
Looking
forward,
one
one
of
us
will
appear
before
you
once
a
month
to
give
you
a
quick
update
on
defluskey's
developments.
L
A
M
M
I'd
like
to
associate
myself
with
Cade's
remarks
and
I
want
to
thank
all
of
you
for
really
an
extraordinary
amount
of
attention
for
an
issue
that
affects
in
the
you
know,
the
scheme
of
entire
Beaufort
County
a
pretty
tiny
proportion
of
people,
but
it
is
important
to
us
and
it
does
affect
a
lot
of
lives
and
we
just
couldn't
possibly
have
asked
for
for
more
interest
more
review,
more
consideration.
We
appreciate
Mr
Lawson's
slogging
through
us
the
last
year
and
a
half
on
this
issue
and
the
leadership
of
other
council
members.
M
We
especially
appreciate
knowing
that,
after
your
vote
today
that
you're
going
to
continue
to
take
a
look
at
it
and
we
all
figure
out
how
this
works
and
get
it
work
better,
and
we
appreciate
that
as
well.
So
you
know
I
just
want
to
end
again
with
saying
thank
you
so
much
for
for
your
courtesy
and
your
attention
to
this
issue
and
it's
appreciated
by
a
lot
of
people
back
in
our
little
island.
Thank
you.
B
The
assistant,
the
it's
about
the
bonds,
the
Fripp
Island
bonds,
but
just
Bonds
in
general
I,
have
a
big
concern
about
bonds.
Now,
I
understand
the
Frip
Island
bonds,
if
this
goes
through,
will
be
retired
by
Frip
Island
residents,
not
by
Hospitality
tax
funds.
Is
that
correct?
Thank
you.
I
have
big
concerns
about
the
bonds,
millions
of
dollars
that
have
been
issued
in
the
past
and
overseen
by
Burr
Foreman
law,
firm
and
Franny
Heiser,
as
I
understand
for
about
the
last
25
or
30
years.
M
B
A
A
A
B
A
N
O
Yeah
liaison
so
I
have
the
good
news
I'm
going
to
congratulate
congresswoman
Howard.
We
have
reached
an
agreement
with
the
city
of
Beaufort
to
give
tokens
to
people
who
use
the
Beaufort
library
branch
and
not
have
to
pay
sometime.
So
we
started
a
program
June
1st
and
it
goes
to
August.
31St
and
Library
staff
will
provide
a
token.
When
someone
comes
in
to
register
for
a
library
card,
attend
a
program,
volunteer,
conduct
research
or
complain
about
parking.
O
They
will
get
a
one-hour
free
one
hour
of
parking
and
we're
working
with
the
city
and
councilwoman
Howard,
set
that
all
In
Motion
I
just
picked
up
the
end
of
it.
So
we're
very
happy
to
do
that
with
the
city
and
then
there's
the
school
board
reports,
so
June
27th
they
met.
We
have
a
new
principal
at
May
River,
High
School.
They
accepted
some
recommendations
on
the
appeals
of
seven
more
books
on
the
review
list.
This
is
Continuing
Story.
O
They
pass
the
motion
to
approve
the
resolution
of
a
bond
issuance
and
sale
in
the
amount
not
to
exceed
30
million
dollars
for
2025
projects,
and
then
several
residents
spoke
on
book
bands
and
one
resident
I
had
a
theatrical
moment
with
a
book
bag
and
that
led
to
a
meeting
that
the
board
held
yesterday
on
a
Sunday.
They
had
a
special
meeting
and
they
are
revising
their
policy.
O
With
regard
to
public
comment,
you
all
know
it
goes
quite
long
and
then,
after
this
is
their
words
in
an
effort
to
ensure
safety
security
in
good
order
and
to
allow
all
citizens
a
fair
opportunity
to
participate.
If
a
speaker
does
not
comply
with
the
directives
of
the
board.
That
person
may
be
prohibited
from
six
months
of
future
meetings
from
speaking
for
six
months
and
they
also
approved
a
motion
to
direct
the
superintendent
to
Institute
a
no
bag
policy
for
board
business
meetings.
So
no
one
could
bring
a
book
bag
into
the
meeting.
N
Mr
chairman
I
have
I
was
a
couple
weeks
ago.
I
was
out
at
Bamberg,
South
Carolina
I
never
been
out
the
Bamberg
before,
but
I
was
attending
the
South
Carolina
SCA
board
meeting
out
there
and
we
were
touring
a
factory
that
makes
gaskets
for
aircraft.
So
I
was
pretty
proud
to
be
part
of
that.
But
Bamberg
is
in
the
middle
of
nowhere.
A
It
was
quite
the
ceremony
on
a
very
hot
day,
I
might
add,
but
it
was
well
conducted
and
I
was
very
pleased
to
attend
that
and
we
look
forward
to
working
with
everyone
at
Marine
Corps,
Air
Station.
They
they
really
do
like
what
we
do
for
them
and
with
them
on
behalf
of
everyone
who
is
employed
and
is
on
active
duty
there,
okay
I
would
need
a
motion
for
the
approval
of
the
consent
agenda.
Some
of
Mr
chairman
Mr.
A
Made
the
motion
Ms
Brown
made
the
section
dually,
motioned
and
seconded
any
questions.
Seeing
none
the
consent
agenda
will
be
approved
without
objection
and
I
see
no
objections.
Okay,
now
we
have
some
public
hearings.
Item
number
11
is
a
public
hearing
and
second
reading
of
the
Norton
amending
ordinance
22-45
by
removing
the
property
located
at
60,
68
Helmsman
way
with
a
TMS
number
and
other
matters
related.
There,
too,
is
there
any
member
of
the
public
who
wishes
to
make
a
comment
regarding
this
item
at
this
time,
seeing
none
the
public
hearing
portion
will
be
closed.
A
The
second,
duly
motioned
and
seconded,
is
there
any
discussion
seeing
no
discussion.
This
will
be
approved.
The
second
reading
will
be
approved
without
objection
and
I
see
no
objections.
Next
is
a
public
hearing
and
approval
of
a
resolution
authorizing
the
County
Administrator
to
execute
the
necessary
documents
and
provide
funding
for
this
be
simple
purchase
of
tax
map
serial
number
serial
numbers,
also
known
as
cotton
Hall?
Is
there
a
member
of
the
public
who
wishes
to
make
a
comment
about
this
particular
item?
A
A
Yes
and
Mr
McShane
texted
me
and
said
he
would
have
liked
to
have
been
here
in
person,
but
he
could
not
be
here
in
person
and
thanks
County
Council,
for
what
they're
doing
so
without
objection.
This
will
be
approved
and
I
see
no
objection.
Next
is
a
public
hearing
and
approval
of
a
resolution
authorizing
the
demolition
of
structures
and
funding
for
the
demolition
of
structures.
I'm
Beaufort
County
owned
property
located
at
2
mullet
street.
Is
there
anyone
in
the
public
who
wishes
to
comment
about
this?
A
P
But
let
me
just
say
that
this
is
for
the
doc
purposes.
We've
realized
the
doc
is,
is
at
this
point,
Beyond
repair.
So
we
for
liability
reasons
we
need
to
take
apart
what
what
is
not
good
or
you
can't
use
and
then
obviously
it'll
be
later
on,
looking
at
doing
something
else,
there
correct
just
for
the
dock.
Only
though
yes,.
A
A
A
Mr,
McAllen
and
I
spent
almost
two
hours
with
Administration
going
through
every
single
piece
of
documentation
regarding
this
special
use
process
that
is
Incorporated
in
the
current
code
in
unincorporated
Beaufort
County
that
will
be
incorporated
into
dofusky
Island.
We
did
so
because
we
wanted
to
make
sure
that
everything
was
being
done
in
a
fair
and
factual
manner,
as
Mr
Greenway
said,
and
then
I'm
going
to
turn
it
over
to
my
colleague,
Mr
McAllen.
To
make
some
additional
remarks
is
that
the
zoning
board
of
appeals
is
a
quasi-judicial
group.
A
A
F
I
really
want
to
see
the
60-day
period
of
time
for
permits
to
be
accepted
by
the
county
start
tomorrow.
So
I
have
a
question
to
the
County.
Administrator
is
the
county
department
that
is
going
to
be
accepting
those
permits
ready
to
start
accepting
those
tomorrow?
Yes,
sir
okay,
so
the
60-day
period
will
then
start
tomorrow.
I
would
also
like
to
reserve
the
right
to
revisit
this
ordinance
after
this
passes
this
evening,
assuming
that
it
does
because
I
think
there
are
some
issues
with
regard
to
language.
F
That
I
would
like
to
look
at
to
strengthen
The
Language
clean
up
the
language
pay
some
strict
attention
to
it,
so
that
this
deals
specifically
with
issues
related
to
defusky.
One
of
the
things
I'd
like
to
see
in
there
is
I
would
like
I
know
that
we
have
agreement
that
there
will
no
longer
be,
after
the
60-day
period
reasons
to
appear
in
person
for
staff
meetings
or
public
hearings.
F
But
I
don't
see
any
language
in
the
ordinance
there
and
I'd
like
to
ensure
that
we
put
language
in
there
guaranteeing
that
Zoom
meetings
will
be
allowed
to
take
place
in
addition
to
the
meetings
that
may
have
to
be
conducted
in
person
if
necessary,
I'd
also
like
to
look
at
one
of
the
areas
where
a
permit
has
been
revoked
by
person
who
legitimately
obtained
it,
and
after
that,
revocation
the
person
sells
the
property.
It
appears
that
we
have
some
language
in
this
in
this
ordinance.
F
That
says,
if
another
party
buys
the
property
and
then
wants
to
apply
for
a
permit,
they
will
have
to
pay
a
penalty
of
five
hundred
dollars
based
upon
the
egregious
behavior
of
the
previous
owner,
I'm,
not
sure
if
I'm
reading
that
properly
or
if
it
has
any
kind
of
application
here
but
I'm,
not
sure
I,
agree
well,
I
definitely
don't
agree
with
having
a
new
owner
pay
a
fine
for
the
behavior
of
a
previous
owner.
But
if
there's
something
about
this,
that
I
don't
understand.
I'd
like
to
I'd
like
to
hear
about
it.
F
I
don't
want
to
do
any
of
this
tonight
and
delay.
This
vote
I
do
want
to
have
an
opportunity,
though,
to
explore
some
of
these
changes
that
I
have
an
interest
in
looking
at
with
staff
at
a
future
date,
and
I
would
like
to
thank
everyone
who
has
worked
so
hard
to
get
us
where
we
are
and,
as
I
said
earlier,
I
intend
to
vote
Yes
to
move
this
along,
so
the
60-day
period
of
time
for
applying
for
a
permit
can
start
effectively
tomorrow.
Thank
you
very
much.
Okay,.
G
I,
don't
know
if
it's
a
concern
as
much
as
the
questions
the
same
one
I've
expressed
before
we're
spending
millions
and
millions
of
taxpayers
dollars
on
dafusky
island
between
purchasing
the
lands
operating
the
ferry
and
then
building
the
docking
stations
for
those
fairies.
That
is
all
of
you
for
counties.
Tax
dollars,
not
just
the
Huskies
one
of
our
biggest
drivers
in
Beaufort
County
is
a
Hospitality
as
well
as
vacationers.
So
my
problem,
I
run
into
is
the
same
thing
we
talked
about
last
time.
G
G
I
think
that's
smart,
but
limiting
what
people
can
do
with
these
homes,
especially
when
a
lot
of
these
houses
on
to
fusky
are
second
homes
I'd
like
for
that
to
be
able
to
be
used
for
Beaufort
County,
Beaufort
County
residents,
as
well
as
other
people
visiting.
If
they
see
fit
it's
their
property,
it's
their
house
if
they
meet
the
requirements,
I
don't
see
the
issue
with
it.
G
If
not,
if
you
know
there
are
those
conflicts
in
those
areas,
people
are
more
than
welcome
to
create
HOAs.
My
neighborhood
has
an
HOA
and
they
don't
even
allow
short-term
rentals.
You
know,
and
then
that's
done
within
our
neighborhood,
so
with
that
I
will
continue
to
vote
against
it.
Based
on
that
that
one
item.
A
Okay,
as
as
it
was
stated,
the
zoning
board
of
appeals
will
be
the
one
to
make
that
decision.
They
cannot
make
that
decision
a
without
having
a
public
hearing
and
input
in
the
public
from
the
public,
and
then
it
has
to
be
based
upon
facts
and
the
rule
of
law.
It
can't
be
arbitrary
and
precious
to
say.
Well,
there
are
six
houses,
we
think
that's
enough
on
this
street,
so
that
should
lay
your
fears
that
they
could
do
something
like
that,
because
they
can't.
D
D
Well,
they
yeah
I
mean
you
know
it's
finding
is
a
fact
that
matters
of
law
they
could
use
either
one
interchangeably.
They
could
say
hey
this.
You
know
with
all
these
short-term
rentals
here
on
this
particular
street
or
in
this
particular
location,
is
changing
this
from
a
you
know,
a
residential
character.
Neighborhood.
We
have
a
lot
of
long-term,
the
fusky
island
residents
living
in
this
area.
You
know
for
their
quiet
enjoyment
of
the
property.
D
You
know,
underneath
the
police
power
I,
that
we
are
going
to
limit
the
number
of
units
on
in
this
particular
area
on
the
short-term
rentals,
or
they
may
say
that
you
know
these
short-term
rentals
can
only
be
rented
out
for
a
specified
period
of
time.
That's
also
the
limitation
and
I
think
that's
the
reason.
The
limitation
language
actually
exists.
D
It
wasn't
really
with
the
number
of
houses,
because
I've
expressed
to
you
all
before
that
I
have
concerns
about
meeting
that
legal,
Challenge
and
all,
but
to
the
Chairman's
point
is:
if
there's
a
situation
and
I
can't
come
up
with
any
scenario
right
now
where
that
would
be
employed.
But
if
there
is
a
situation
where
that
would
be
a
requirement,
then
the
zoning
board
of
appeals
would
have
the
authority
to
legitimately
based
on
findings
of
fact,
that
matters
of
law
established
that
limitation
for
the
special
use.
D
So
what
I
would
recommend
that
we
do
is
let's
get
this
adopted,
let's
see
how
it
works,
and
if
that
becomes
an
issue
over
time
to
council
member
mcclellan's
point,
the
staff
will
bring
it
back
to
you
all
and
say
hey.
We
might
need
to
come
up
with
a
different
option,
because
people
are,
you
know,
losing
the
right
to
how
short
terminals
with
no
basis
whatsoever,
because
other
people
are
just
being
obstinate
about
having
short-term
rentals
in
their
streets.
We
will
monitor
that
at
the
stop
level.
R
Other
questions,
just
one
more
thing
from
here
briefly:
this
is
the
third
reading,
and
up
to
this
point
there
has
been
a
tremendous
amount
of
communication
from
all
sides
of
this
and
this
Council.
This
new
council
person
wants
to
thank
everybody.
That's
involved
with
the
fusky
island,
both
sides
that
had
differences.
R
The
way
you
treated
each
other
with
respect
in
we
got
to
this
point
tonight
because
of
the
way
you
acted,
and
the
second
thing
is
my
colleague,
Mark
Lawson
I,
give
you
credit
for
the
leadership
you
brought
to
this
and
I
think
you're,
the
fusky
island
people
appreciate
that
and
I
do
so.
Thank
you.
I.
A
First
of
all,
the
there
is
a
word
in
there
that
says,
provided
the
party
I
believe
it
should
be.
Property
is
sold
to
a
new
owner
that
has
no
business
or
personal
affiliation
with
the
previous
owner
and
provided
a
penalty
of
five
hundred
dollars
is
paid
by
the
owner.
Slash
applicant
at
the
time
of
the
short-term
rental
property
permit
application
for
an
strp
use
is
filed.
It
seems
like
we're.
Punishing
the
new
person,
not
the
previous
yeah.
D
That's
a
very
that's,
a
very
good
catch.
That's
probably
language!
That's
in
our
standard
ordinance
across
the
board,
so
we
will
clean
that
up
and
bring
that
back
to
you
all
immediately
to
make
sure
that
no
one
has
to
do
that
anywhere
in
Beaufort
County,
because
I
do
agree.
It's
a
very
good
catch
on
councilmember
mcallen's
part
to
catch
that
so
I
have
no
problem
with
changing
that.
We
have
removed
the
inspection
issue
and
the
other
the
insurance
item
that
was
brought
up.
Let.
P
A
N
A
A
Q
I
I
actually
would
like
to
make
an
amendment
I'm
going
to
renew
it
from
the
last
time
to
remove
the
language
in
Section,
8
and
b330b1,
where
it
says
in
cases
where
special
use
approval
is
required.
This
only
vote
of
appeals
May
establish
an
appropriate
rental
limit
as
a
condition
of
approval,
after
conducting
the
public
hearing
and
finding
the
conditions
that
exist.
Making
such
limitations
necessary
I
want
to
remove
that
language.
I
understand
how
it's
going
to
be
used.
Q
Q
Mr,
chairman,
okay,
thank
you
and
I
I.
Personally,
don't
want
to
put
out
law
I
can't
support
this.
Even
you
know
moving
forward
right
now,
because
I
don't
want
to
put
out
bad
law.
That
we
know
is
bad.
That
has
issues
I'd
rather
work
it
on
the
front
end
and
make
sure
that
we
get
it
right
before
actually
passing
and
understand
that
we're
delaying
people's
application.
That
is
that
is
a
problem,
but
I'd
rather
get
the
ordinance
right
before
having
to
come
back
and
revisit
it.
G
One
if
we
have
run
into
a
problem
later
on
when
we
feel
we
need
to
implement
this,
we
can
add
it
later
on
when
Mr
McKellen
decides.
If
we
need
to
bring
this
back
to
revisit
it
right
now,
we
don't
have
the
issue,
but
this
could
create
an
issue,
but
if
we
don't
have
it
in
there,
then
that
avoids
that
situation
completely.
So
I
support
it.
Yeah.
D
You
know
whatever
you
all
want
to
do
just
be
mindful
that,
just
like
with
the
500
penalty,
we're
going
to
need
to
bring
a
set
of
ordinance
a
set
of
amendments
back
to
you
all
to
clean
this
up,
county-wide,
because
I
don't
want
to
have
staff.
You
know,
I
have
to
deal
with
different
standards
to
just
be
mindful
of
that
that
this
is
already
a
procedure
established
in
the
short-term
rental
ordinance
for
all
other
areas
of.
Q
C
C
Coffin
point
is
a
good
example
of
where
this
has
happened.
They're
parking
in
your
driveway
they're
parking
in
front
of
your
house
they're
not
doing
what
they're
supposed
to
do.
I
I
think
all
this
needs
to
come
back
through
committee,
but
there's
some
good
reasons
for
some
of
the
things
that
are
in
there
and
it
goes
to.
It
goes
back
to
property
rights
of
an
individual
who
lives
in
a
house.
Next
to
somebody
who
has
a
short.
Q
Q
Q
F
Who
will
do
it
and
I
suppose?
The
only
answer
to
that
is
that
this
cap
should
not
exist
there
and
I
believe
that
it
should,
because
I
think
everyone
has
the
right
to
the
peaceful
enjoyment
of
their
own
property
and
if
they
think
that
something's
going
to
happen,
that's
going
to
prevent
that
from
occurring.
They
have
a
right
to
express
that
to
that
to
a
body
and
I
think
that
appropriate
by
body
is
the
zoning
board
of
appeals
with
regard
to
councilwoman's,
Howard's
statement.
I.
F
Believe
this
does
have
to
go
back
to
committee
for
a
further
work
to
ensure
that
the
language
we're
seeking
to
insert
is
inserted
properly
that
the
language
that's
inappropriate
as
it
relates
to
the
fusky,
is
removed
and
I
think
that
we
can
do
that
all
at
one
time,
so
that
when
this
document
comes
back
to
us,
all
of
the
corrections
will
be
included
because
of
the
work
being
done
at
committee,
so
that
we
don't
have
to
keep
coming
back
with
additional
amended
motions
to
pass
this.
So
I'm
still
I'm
not
going
to
support
this.
G
G
That
being
one,
the
other
one
is,
if
we're
talking
about
partying
having
a
houses
or
whatever
it
might
be,
which
is
what
nobody
wants
to
say,
but
that's
really
what
they're
worried
about?
There
are
limitations
of
how
many
people
can
fit
into
a
house
based
on
those
rules,
and
that's
that
goes
back
to
a
company
that
is
running
that
Airbnb
as
well.
Who
has
to
maintain
those
limitations.
F
D
Area
Beaufort
County
and
has
a
short-term
rental
ordinance
that
was
adopted
through
a
Citizens
task
force.
I
cannot
stand
here
tonight
and
tell
you
that
that
short-term
rental
ordinance
that
was
adopted
back
then
applies
to
all
the
community
preservation
districts
that
we
have
in
the
county,
because
we
have
five
or
six
of
those.
So
there
may
be
other
areas
of
unincorporated
if
you've
got
to
do
not
allow
short-term
rentals,
but
currently
short
terminals
are
not
legally
allowed
by
the
staff.
Interpretation
and
position
on
the
fusky
island
in
this
ordinance
will
allow
that
to
occur.
D
Q
G
D
G
D
A
A
A
Q
T
N
A
A
A
So
60-day
clock
starts
tomorrow.
Ladies
and
gentlemen,
onto
fusky
Island
item
number
15
is
the
third
reading
of
an
ordinance
authorizing
the
County
Administrator
to
execute
the
necessary
documents
for
the
sale
of
rep
re
real
property,
known
as
Camp
St
Mary's
to
the
Beaufort,
County,
Rural
and
critical
lands
program.
May
I
have
a
motion
so
move
Mr
chairman
Mr
Cunningham
makes
the
motion
I'll.
Second,
it
Miss
tabernac
makes
this
a
second
dually
motion
and
second,
is
there
any
discussion
seeing
no
discussion?
This
will
be
approved
without
objection
and
I
see
no
objections.
A
A
A
Next
is
the
first
reading
of
an
ordinance
authorizing
the
County
Administrator
to
execute
the
necessary
documents
and
provide
funding
for
the
purchase
of
real
property
identified
as
34
Ulmer
Road
may
have
the
motion.
Second,
please
Mr,
chairman
Mr
Cunningham
makes
the
second
Mr
Lawson
makes
the
first
Mr
Lawson
makes
the
second
and,
in
your
backup,
documentation,
the
piece
of
property
referred
to
is
incorrect.
A
A
S
So
as
referenced
in
the
ordinance,
Council
actually
purchased
this
property,
which
is
785,
which
is
south
of
the
property
here
this
evening,
that's
being
presented
you'll,
see
here,
the
property
being
highlighted
is
the
property
in
which
is
being
identified.
Tonight's
ordinance
across
from
here
is
the
current
facility
owned
by
Beaufort
County,
which
is
location
of
a
gem
as
well
as
additional
baseball
fields.
H
H
D
This
purchase
will
allow
us
to
bring
back
the
a
plan
for
you
all
to
either
expand
the
passive
to
do.
A
combination
of
things
maybe
expand
the
passive
part
operations
that
we're
going
to
build
and
also
build
additional
athletic
fields
on
the
property
that,
because
it
sits
directly
across
the
street
from
the
Bluffton
Center,
we
have
limited.
We
have
a
limited
facilities
on
that
property
due
to
the
size.
So
this
will
help
add
some
Recreation
fields
for
us
to
be
able
to
utilize
for
the
recreation
program.
P
Let
me
just
this
would
be
go
ahead.
No
and
obviously
this
is
in
my
district
and
and
something
that
there
is
very
few
Parcels
left
in
this
portion
of
Bluffton
that
is
available
for
purchase
and
for
us
to
use.
It
makes
it
ideal,
since
it
is
right
next
to
the
the
Bluffton
rec
center
right
now,
and
if
you
read
your
notes
as
a
passive
and
also
an
active
Park
that
we
can
expand
to
there
with
with
some
active
and
again
that
whole
area
then
will
become
a
hub.
P
N
H
G
I
just
wanted
to
say:
I
know
you
all
been
working
hard
on
this
for
about
a
year
and
a
half
two
years,
I'm
tired
of
listening
to
me
talk
about
it.
So
I
appreciate
the
hard
work
I'm
glad
we
got
Camp
St
Mary's,
taking
care
of
as
well,
because
that
was
my
conflict
against
it
when
we
were
talking
about
that
before.
So,
congratulations
to
you
guys
in
the
team
and
I
look
forward
to
seeing
the
design
coming
forward.
Hopefully
maybe
by
the
end
of.
G
G
A
Okay,
any
further
discussion
seeing
none
this
will
be
approved
without
objection.
Is
there
any
objection,
yeah
saying
none?
This
is
approved.
Item
number
18
is
approval
of
a
resolution
authorizing
the
County
Administrator
to
execute
Mutual
Aid
agreements
regarding
relocation
of
detainees
on
a
temporary
basis
during.
A
F
A
A
A
O
A
Any
further
discussion
seeing
none
this
will
be
approved
without
objection
and
there
are
no
objections.
Item
20
is
approval
of
a
resolution
to
approve
an
intergovernmental
agreement
with
the
scdot
for
pavement
overlay
and
pavement
marking,
improvements
on
U.S,
278
and
interchange
ramps
to
be
included
in
the
sc-170
near-term
improvements
project
in
the
county,
a
motion
and
second,
please
so.
A
The
second,
along
with
half
of
the
other
people,
this
is
desperately
needed.
Yes,
this
is
a
first
that
the
scdot
is
willing
to
cooperate
with
a
county
to
do
a
joint
program
rather
than
doing
something
and
then
having
to
do
it
over
again.
So
this
is
a
very
exciting
item.
Any
comments
seeing
none
this
will
be
approved
without
objection
and
I.
See
no
objections.
A
Final
item
is
approval
of
a
resolution
to
amend
resolution
2023-35
a
resolution
ordering
a
public
hearing
to
be
held
on
the
issuance
of
not
exceeding
5
million
two
hundred
and
fifty
thousand
dollar
aggregated
principal
amount
of
General
obligation,
bonds
of
the
Fripp
Island
Public
Service
District
South
Carolina,
providing
for
the
publication
of
the
notice
of
such
public
hearing
and
other
matters
related
thereto
to
a
scrivener's
error.
May
I
have
such
emotion.
A
A
B
Passman
here
is:
what's
not
right
and
I
wish.
My
comments
could
be
more
pleasant,
Greenway
playing
golf
with
a
developer
of
Pine
Island.
This
is
a
conflict
Greenway
legally
using
tax
funds
to
join
the
county
as
a
chamber,
member
of
all
the
non-profit
Chambers.
This
was
illegal
under
South
Carolina,
constitutional
law
to
use
public
funds
for
private
purposes.
B
Greenway
hired
lawyer,
Brian
Holbert
passed
lawyer
for
Hilton
Head,
who
was
terminated
for
his
racist
comment.
Several
years
back,
Greenway
is,
in
violation
of
of
my
eight
tax
foia,
to
show
all
the
accounting
on
how
all
the
chambers
Buford
Kelton
head
Bluffton.
The
Black
Chamber
has
been
illegally
using
tens
of
millions
of
our
tax
funds
for
40
years.
B
Just
Hilton
Head
chamber
is
125
million,
disappeared
and
unaccounted
for.
Did
you
know
that
Greenway
Kevin
and
Holbert
refusing
to
draft
DMO
contracts
and
non-profit
tax
recipient
agreements
to
ensure
that
our
tax
funds
are
being
used
legally
and
all
accounting
is
reported
with
full
transparency?
You
must
stop
just
handing
people
out
with
millions
of
money
of
dollars
with
no
accounting.
This
has
got
to
end
I
contend,
and
this
is
ugly,
but
I
contend.
B
B
We
need
a
forensic
audit,
a
Mr
Greenway
in
this
entire
County
plus
we
need
to
audit
town
of
Bluffton,
Hilton
Head
and
the
school
district
and
all
the
chambers
and
Maria
wall
the
treasurer
they
all
handle
millions
of
dollars
of
our
tax
money,
Greenway
and
Kevin.
He
worked
with
Burr
Foreman
lawyer,
Franny
Heiser
on
bonds.
Millions
in
Hospitality
funds
are
used
to
retire
bonds.
Tens
of
millions
of
hospitality
funds
are
unaccounted
for
and
disappeared.
B
We
need
a
deep
forensic
audit,
plus
millions
of
a
tax
funds
again
have
disappeared,
issued
to
the
Chambers
of
Commerce,
the
cbbs
and
the
dmos
by
Greenway.
I
think
we
need
the
FBI
involved.
Yeah
I
think
somebody
needs
to
call
the
FBI
passment
and
other
council
members
were
targets
to
become
members
of
the
secret
underground
government
GIC.
The
greater
Island
also
targeted
to
be
free
chamber
members
to
attend
the
chamber
ball.
Quid
pro
quo,
we
have
lots
of
questions
to
answer
on.
This.
