Meeting Agenda available at https://hiltonheadislandsc.gov/towncouncil/agendas/
A
I'd
like
to
call
this
meeting
to
order
hello,
everyone,
thanks
for
being
here
today,
I'd
like
to
call
the
January
17th
2023
Town
council
meeting
to
order
Krista.
Are
we
in
compliance
with
the
Freedom
of
Information
Act?
Yes,.
D
A
A
E
E
Let's
pray
dear
God
I.
Thank
you
so
much
for
today.
Lord.
Your
word
says
that
you
establish
governing
authorities
and
so
I
personally,
thank
you
for
each
of
the
men
and
the
women
who
are
before
me
today,
God
I,
ask
that
you
would
bring
unity
in
all
of
their
discussions
and
appreciation
for
each
other's
diverse
talents
and
experiences
and
Foster
affection
for
one
another,
especially
when
they
don't
see
eye
to
eye
I.
E
Ask
that
you
would
put
your
spirit
on,
if
not
in
them,
to
Grant
wisdom
and
guidance
for
the
best
decisions
that
they
would
stand
out
from
all
other
options
under
their
service.
Further
Prosper
Hilton
Head
as
a
world-class
destination
and
a
place
to
call
home
with
an
eye
always
on
the
needs
of
our
most
vulnerable
citizens.
I
ask
that
you
protect
and
care
for
their
families
as
they
care
for
us,
demonstrate,
your
goodness
toward
them
in
their
businesses
and
their
private
lives
as
they
diligently
serve
our
community.
A
G
So
that's
clarified
all
right
good
evening
or
good
afternoon,
mayor
council,
members
of
the
public
just
one
item
of
interest,
and
then
we
have
a
a
few
updates
for
everybody
today,
January
24
and
25,
which
is
already
next
Tuesday
and
Wednesday.
On
my
math
we
have
a
Town
Council
strategic
plan
Workshop
over
a
period
of
two
days.
It's
located
at
the
Westin
Christo.
The
starting
time
is
8
30
gathering
in
a
9
A.M
sharp
starting
time.
Yes,.
H
H
H
So
what
I'd
like
to
do
is
is
really
two
things
with
this
brief
presentation.
One
is
to
talk
about
the
audit
and
the
results
of
the
audit
itself
and
then
also
to
kind
of
give
you
a
brief
overview
in
terms
of
the
town's
Financial
condition
after
the
audit.
So
let
me
go
ahead
and
get
started,
so
the
I'll
talk
a
little
bit
more
in
just
a
minute,
but
the
end
result
of
our
audit
is
the
opinions
that
we
issue.
H
So
with
that?
What
you
then
ask
us
to
do
is
to
perform
our
audit
the
the
purpose.
The
end
purpose
of
that
of
our
audit
is
the
opinions
that
we
issue
and
got
a
few
comments
there
in
terms
of
what
the
audit
does,
what
it
does
not
do,
but
that
opinion
in
the
end,
what
it's
doing
is
providing
reasonable
assurance
that
everything
is
materially
correct
and
so
for
the
year
end
of
June
30th
2022,
the
town
has
received
an
unmodified
opinion.
H
I
know
that
doesn't
really
mean
anything
to
anybody,
but
that's
the
best
opinion
that
you
can
receive
no
matter
what
kind
of
entity
you're
you
are.
Your
goal
is
to
receive
that
unmodified
opinion.
So
Council
ought
to
be
very
pleased
with
that
manager
Orlando,
as
well
as
the
finance
staff.
Again
they've
they've
done
a
great
job.
H
They
would
tell
you
general
fund
fund
balance,
so
that's
why
we
always
start
with
this,
and
so
you
can
see
your
fund
balance
increased
about
3.4
million
dollars
a
little
over
29
million
in
total.
Most
of
that,
26.7
million
is
committed
for
your
disaster.
Recovery
and
I
just
want
to
tell
you
that's
fantastic
to
be.
At
that
point.
It
represents
55
percent
of
what
you
have
for
the
23
budget
expenditures.
It
was
just
40
percent
last
year,
so
you've
you've
made
tremendous
Improvement
to
build
that
back
up.
H
So
what
that
leaves
us
with
is
an
unassigned
fund
balance
of
about
2.3
million.
You
know
about
5.4
percent
of
what
your
22
expenditures
are.
It's
obviously
low
gfoa
is
the
government
Finance
Officers
Association,
and
it's
a
national
organization
that
makes
some
kind
of
General
recommendations
and
you
can
see
your
percentage
is
quite
a
bit
lower
than
that.
Not
a
concern
on
our
part
at
all,
and
the
reason
is,
if
you
really
needed
more,
you
can
go
to
that
Disaster
Recovery
Fund
and
move
it
back,
and
so
just
having
even
a
couple
million
dollars.
H
There
is
very
adequate
from
our
perspective
and
just
as
kind
of
a
reminder
about
why
a
good,
healthy
fund
balance
is
so
important.
A
number
of
things
there.
The
the
main
thing
I
like
to
point
out,
is
just
remembering
that
when
we
measure
this
at
June,
30th
you're,
looking
at
going
about
five
to
six
months
before
you're,
going
to
receive
any
more
significant
property
tax
revenue,
so
that
healthy
fund
balance,
along
with
some
of
the
other
revenues,
is
what
what
helps
carry
you
through.
H
So
how
do
we
get
there?
You
can
see
your
your
general
fund
revenues
and
other
financing
sources
were
about
44
million
dollars,
little
5.7
million
higher
than
what
you
had
in
the
prior
year
and
8.8
million
better
than
budget,
and
probably
the
the
main
thing
I
want
to
point
out,
because
a
significant
piece
of
that's
related
to
the
business
licenses
and
franchise
fees.
And
if
you
remember
your
old
code,
just
required
a
license
if
there
was
more
than
one
rental
unit
now
the
new
one,
even
if
there's
one
rental
unit.
H
So
that's
why
there
was
a
good
piece
of
why
there
was
a
an
increase
there
and
you'll
see
that
going
forward
as
well.
Obviously,
on
the
expenditure
side,
you
can
see
about
a
little
over
43
million
about
2
million
higher
than
where
you
were
in
the
prior
year,
but
about
a
million
less
than
what
you
budgeted
so
end
results.
H
Really,
that's
what
you
want
to
see
right
revenue
is
a
little
bit
higher
than
budget
expenditure
is
a
little
bit
lower
than
budget
so
another
good
year,
when
you
add
all
of
your
funds
together,
obviously
General
funds,
the
major
fund
there's
a
number
of
other
funds,
but
you
can
see
your
total
revenues
and
other
financing
sources
were
almost
114
million.
Your
expenditures
were
quite
a
bit
less
and
part
of
the
reason
they
were
quite
a
bit.
Less
is
because
there
were
some
capital
projects
that
got
delayed
and
you'll
see.
H
You'll
see
those
continue
in
the
future
storm
water
fund.
You
can
see
had
an
increase
in
your
net
position
of
about
half
a
million
dollars.
10.5
million
you
can
see
what
happened
as
far
as
operating
revenues
were
pretty
consistent
with
the
prior
year.
Your
expenditures
decreased
quite
a
bit
because
of
some
repairs
and
maintenance
decreases.
H
The
one
thing
I
would
mention
here-
and
this
is
probably
the
only
real
recommendation
that
we
have
for
Council
management
to
consider
is
maybe
looking
at
doing
a
rate
study
with
the
storm
water
fund
and,
from
our
perspective,
the
reason
that
that
could
really
be
helpful
is
that
what
a
race
study
is
going
to
do.
Is
it's
going
to
look
at
Short
Term?
H
It's
going
to
look
at
medium
term
and
it's
going
to
look
at
long
term
and
it's
going
to
look
at
not
only
your
operating
expenses,
but
it's
also
going
to
look
at
your
your
short-term,
medium-term
and
long-term
capital
needs
as
well,
and
that
all
needs
to
be
taken
into
consideration
when
you
look
at
your
rates.
So
that's
something
to
consider,
as
as
you
go
forward,.
H
Just
the
highlights
on
the
capital
assets,
not
not
a
lot
of
activity,
but
you
can
see
you've
got
net
of
about
290
million
in
total
for
the
year
and
it
went
down
this
year
just
simply
because
your
depreciation
expense
was
higher
than
than
what
you
what
you
added
to
your
Capital
assets,
your
long-term
obligations,
you
can
see:
110
million,
went
down
primarily
because
of
your
ongoing
typical
principal
payments.
H
The
one
thing
I
always
like
to
mention
is
that
net
pension
liability-
you
can
see
it's
almost
16
million
dollars
when
you
first
open
your
financial
statements,
one
of
the
first
in
the
first
statement
that
you
will
see
you're
gonna
you're
gonna
see
that
liability
of
16
million
dollars
saying
what
is
that?
How
in
the
world
are
we
going
to
pay
that
and
in
reality
you
don't
have
to
what
that
represents?
H
Is
your
net
portion
of
the
unfunded
liability
that
exists
at
the
State
Retirement
System?
It's
the
state's
responsibility
to
figure
out
how
to
deal
with
that
unfunded
piece.
So,
as
long
as
you
are
continuing
to
make
the
payments
to
the
system,
just
like
you
always
have
you're
doing
everything,
you
can
and
should
be
just
know,
as
historically
they've
done,
one
of
the
primary
ways
that
they're
going
to
deal
with
that
unfunded
liability
is
to
continue
to
increase
the
rates
that
you
as
a
town
pay
in,
so
that
just
has
a
budget
impact
going
forward.
H
There
wasn't
a
whole
lot
really
to
deal
with
either
this
year
or
what
you'll
see.
Next
year
there
was
a
new
governmental,
Accounting
Standards
on
leases.
It
really
didn't
have
a
significant
impact
on
the
town
there's
something
similar
next
year
with
software
related
I.T
arrangements,
and
that's
something
that
the
town
will
look
at
addressing
the
year
the
fiscal
year
we're
in
right
now,
but
that's
really
it
going
forward.
H
As
you
know,
if
the
town
receives
a
significant
amount
of
federal
funds,
the
federal
government
actually
asks
us
to
perform
some
work
to
make
sure
that
the
town
is
complying
with
the
requirements
this
year.
Because
of
the
funds
you
received,
we
looked
at
your
coronavirus,
state
and
local
fun
activity,
no
issues,
no
compliance
matters.
Everything's
everything
looks
great
in
that
regard.
H
H
Were
there
any
disagreements
with
management,
any
significant
issues
that
we
need
to
make
you
aware
of
of
which
there
were
none,
and
if
we
had
any
matters
that
we
felt
like
needed
to
be
put
in
writing
they
wouldn't
be
included
as
well,
but
there
were,
there
were
no
matters
to
report
and
again
the
only
recommendation
we
have
is
related
to
considering
the
the
storm
water
rate
study.
H
D
Lynn,
thank
you.
You
mentioned
the
stormwater
rate
study
the
idea.
There
would
be
evaluate
the
rates
that
are
being
assessed
now
and
consider
increasing
those.
So
we
could
improve
the
stormwater
resources
that
we
have
here
correct,
correct,
correct
good.
So
are
you
saying
you
think
it
is
out
of
sync
with
where
we
should
be
no.
H
G
D
G
C
C
To
our
Our
Town
manager
and
his
staff
for
a
good
report
card,
just
a
couple
of
questions,
one
is
the
fund
balance
slide
that
you
showed
that
showed
I
think
gfoa
recommends
I
think
it
was
a
little
over
five
percent
5.4
and
I'm
sorry
16.7
and
we're
at
5.4
right
is
that
common
in
South
Carolina
or
is
this
uncommon?
Are
we
unusual
for
having
that
that
much
lower
than
what
gfoa
recommends
well.
H
What
what
we
typically
see
is
when
we
have
a
municipality
that
has
overall
a
healthy
fund
balance,
but
they've
got
it
in
different
pieces.
They
probably
tend
to
keep
a
lower
unassigned
fund
balance
as
opposed
to
a
town
that
doesn't
really
have
all
those
other
places
that
they
can
go.
Then
you'll
tend
to
see
a
little
higher
fund
balance.
But
again,
when
you
look
at
what
you
you
have
in
your
Disaster
Recovery,
plus
this
you're
at
about
60
percent,
okay,
overall,
so
very,
very
healthy.
Compared
to
that
16.7
yeah.
C
C
All
right,
then,
you
also
mentioned
that
there's
no
internal
audit
function
and
I'm
not
advocating
for
an
internal
auditor,
but
how
common
is
it
in
South
Carolina,
for
a
Municipality
of
our
size
to
have
an
internal
auditor.
H
C
That
I
noted
that,
because
you've
mentioned
it
briefly
in
your
report,
the
the
last
question
has
to
do
with
our
bond
rating
and
so
in
in
your
review
of
our
financial
records.
Do
you
make
any
notes?
Do
you
do
any
consideration
of
any
impact
on
our
bond
rating.
H
We
really
don't
I
mean
we,
we
look
at
it
to
see,
but
we
we
know
the
financial
advisor
world
and
all
the
people
out
there,
including
who
the
town
works
with,
and
so
that's
really
more
of
their
focus.
Yeah.
I
The
unfunded
pension
liabilities,
who
are
we
paying
for,
is
it
the
Guilford
County
Sheriff's
Office?
Is
it
our
Code
Enforcement
Officers,
or
is
it
just
generally
across
the
state
yeah.
H
It's
for
it's
forever,
everybody
really
that
works
in
the
town.
You
have
both
the
you
have
both
the
police
officers,
retirement
system
pors,
as
well
as
the
South
Carolina
Retirement
System
scrs,
and
it's
both
of
those
together.
So
it's
basically
everybody
I
mean
there.
There
might
be
somebody
depending
on
the
situation.
That's
not
a
part,
but
pretty
much.
Everybody
is
all.
K
Following
up
on
that,
invention
that,
with
that
unfund
funded
liability,
that,
as
rates
are
increased,
we're
led
to
believe
correct
that
any
of
the
increase
or
a
portion
of
that
increase
is
being
directed
to
an
account
that
will
hopefully
it
someday
catch
up,
so
that
that
doesn't
remain
a
chronic
situation.
Yeah.
H
Again,
that's,
that's
really
the
if
you,
if
that's
really
the
State
Retirement
Systems
responsibility
to
take
care
of
that,
and
you
know,
they've
got
a
number
of
of
ways
they
can
do
that.
One
of
them
is
the
rates.
They
can
also
change
the
liability
of
the
what
not
the
liability
but
the
benefits
that
are
received,
which
I
think
they
did
that
a
few
years
ago
as
well,
so
there
and
they
can.
They
can
change
their
investment
strategy.
H
So
there's
a
lot
of
different
ways
that
they
can
do
it
and
I
I
know
somebody
that's
pretty
involved
with
all
that
and
they
do
look
at
all
those
options,
but
for
the
last
several
years,
minus
the
one
year
that
they
delayed
it
because
of
the
coronavirus
they've
been
increasing
the
the
rates
about
a
percent
a
year.
K
H
C
Is
it
not
fairly
common
throughout
states
that
there's
a
lot
of
unfunded
liability
for.
H
L
To
apologies,
Mr
Mayor
for
purposes
of
clarification,
because
we
have
new
members
of
council
thought
it
was
important
to
clarify
what
members
of
Staff
do
and
do
not
participate.
C
G
Thank
you,
sir
all
right
next
so
calling
Sean
to
give
an
update
on
our
William
Hilton
Parkway
Gateway
Corridor.
It
reads,
end-to-end
analysis,
but
I
know.
Sean
will
give
a
presentation
an
overview
on
where
we
are
with
the
recently
adopted
memorandum
of
agreement
with
Beaufort
County
won
a
a
reminder
of
what
we're
aiming
towards
and
maybe
an
overall
briefing
of
of
where
we
are
so
thanks.
Sean
foreign.
N
N
So
I
won't
go
back
to
the
beginning
of
the
project
for
for
time,
sensitive
reasons,
but
I'll
give
you
an
update,
starting
on
October
4th
when
Town
Council
agreed
to
adopt
an
mou
or
MOA
with
a
county
which
outlined
the
provisions
and
steps
needed
to
take
to
complete
the
evaluation
and
put
Town
Council
in
a
position
to
make
a
decision
on
the
project
I'm
going
to
walk
through
each
of
the
provisions
with
an
update
and
then
provide
some
summary
of
activity.
That's
occurred
since
the
October
4th
date
and
then
ask
a
couple
questions
to
council.
N
The
town
has
also
involved
with
Consultants
to
develop,
fly
throughs
of
the
corridor
to
help
represent
both
in
3D
and
more
than
plan
view
the
project,
design
and
character.
We're
also
evaluating
the
additional
project
costs
that
we're
outlining
those
recommendations
and
we'll,
and
that
will
continue
to
proceed
as
this
project
advances.
N
Number
three
is
probably
the
key
provision
where
we've
done
a
lot
of
had
the
most
activity
since
October
4th,
but
this
provision
outlined
at
the
county
would
procure
the
independent
consultant
again,
one
that
didn't
have
any
contact
or
any
relationship
with
South
Carolina
Department
of
Transportation,
Beaufort,
County
or
the
town
of
Hilton
island.
To
do
this
independent
review
that
independent
consultant
would
do
the
end-to-end
simulation,
which
included,
study
area
beyond
what
was
defined
in
the
current
project.
N
The
study
area
on
the
Cross
Island
route
goes
all
the
way
down
to
seapine
circle
on
the
business
route
through
hooping,
Crane
and
Away
the
entrance
into
implantation
and
then
on
the
mainland.
It
went
through
the
signal
at
Moss
Creek
and
on
the
Bluffton
Parkway
through
the
signal
at
the
Buckingham
Landing
Buckingham
Plantation
Drive.
N
N
N
On
November
1st,
there
were
seven
firms
that
participated
in
the
mandatory
pre-bid
responses
were
due
November
23rd
to
the
county
procurement
office,
and
the
results
of
that
solicitation
were
one
response
was
received
from
a
firm
to
that
Bib
and
the
information
below
I've
taken
directly
from
the
County's
procurement
site.
So
you
can
kind
of
see
the
the
title
of
the
deadline
and
the
information
that
was
included
on
the
title
for
the
procurement.
N
Some
more
information,
as
a
result
of
only
having
one
respond
to
town
staff,
contacted
four
firms
that
we
had
been
in
contact
with
previously
and
asked
why
they
didn't
submit
proposals.
I've
listed
the
stated
reasons
why
they
didn't
respond,
one
missed
the
pre
mandatory
pre-bid
meeting
again,
that
was
five
days
after
the
solicitation,
and
they
also
were
concerned
about
meeting
the
licensing
required.
South
Carolina,
licensure
licensing
requirement.
N
N
Third
firm
was
challenged
to
find
a
NEPA
expert
that
had
some
experience
in
South
Carolina
coastal
environment
in
which
to
partner
with,
and
then
one
firm
said
that
they
would
like
to
secure
work
in
the
state
of
South
Carolina
and
with
scdot,
and
they
chose
not
to
submit
the
bid.
So
those
were
the
responses
that
we
got
to
get
again
gain
understanding
why
more
firms
didn't
respond
to
the
county?
Solicitation
The
Firm
that
did
respond
does
not
have
an
existing
relationship
with
scdot
with
Beaufort
County
or
the
town
of
Hilton
island.
N
The
selection
team
has
reviewed
the
res
The
Proposal,
and
the
firm
did
demonstrate
an
understanding
of
the
project
that
it
identify,
collaborative
and
innovative
ways
to
approach
what
was
outlined
in
the
scope
of
work
and
and
their
plan
to
move
forward
and
evaluate
the
end
to
end
they.
They
also
indicated
in
their
in
the
projects
they
provided,
that
they
look
Beyond
just
Transportation
solutions
to
really
understand
kind
of
the
DNA
of
the
community
and
understand
the
balance
between
transportation
and
community-based
solutions
and
I
want
to
make
sure
I
just
pointed
that
out.
N
N
This
slide
is
to
remind
councilman
community
of
the
of
the
framework
for
the
scope
of
work
that
was
included
in
the
Moa.
You
know
the
initial
part
of
this
was
to
gain
information
and
coordinate
with
a
town
in
the
county
was
through
initial
meetings.
Understanding
of
current
work
done
done
today
to
come
and
do
a
site
field
visit
and
then
to
develop
a
regular
schedule
for
reporting
to
the
team
that
work
that's
working
with
a
consultant
and
then
also
updates
to
the
town
manager
and
the
County
Administrator
on
a
regular
basis.
N
The
second
task
was
to
evaluate
the
models
that
were
used
throughout
the
process
from
back
from
2017
and
on
as
long
as
the
recommended
concept
review.
So
the
the
full
range
of
Alternatives,
the
reduction
to
reasonable
Alternatives
preferred
alternative,
modified,
preferred
Alternatives
kind
of
review.
N
All
of
that
conceptual
review
and
the
modeling
that
was
used
to
generate
the
recommendations
that
we've
that
we've
had
in
front
of
us
here
in
the
past
task
three
was
update
the
model
right
and
the
operational
update,
so
there's
been
some
changes
to
growth
rates,
infrastructure
and
other
things,
since
the
initial
modeling
was
done
it.
So
it
was
reviewing
the
low
country
area,
transportation,
study,
travel
demand
model,
which
is
a
regional
model
and
also
the
vissim
model
update
to
look
at
more
localized
options.
N
It
was
also
to
look
at
the
state
model
and
to
look
at
calibration
between
all
of
those
to
come
to
generate
the
best
projection
for
for
future
conditions.
N
Looking
at
proposed
intersection
improvements
and
potential
future
projects,
Beyond
just
the
defined
Corridor
to
include
areas
all
the
way
down
to
Sea
Pines
on
the
Cross
Island
route,
Palmetto
Bay
route
and
then
all
the
way
through
hooping
crane
to
make
sure
we're
not
pushing
things
Downstream
and
if
and
if
improvements
are
needed.
That
was
part
of
the
evaluation
assessment
and
then
recommendations
and
then
finally,
to
draft
a
final
report
for
review,
consideration,
discussion
and
then
advancement
of
any
recommendations
as
needed.
N
That
was
an
awful
lot
on
number
three
of
the
provisions,
but
moving
on
to
number
four
was
that
the
Town
and
County
would
establish
this
selection
committee
comprised
jointly
of
three
members
representing
Beaufort
County
and
three
members
representing
town
of
Hilton
island.
That
selection
selection
committee
was
established
from
the
town
standpoint.
It
is
me,
as
assistant
Town
manager
and
Ben
project
manager,
on
the
Townsend
for
this.
N
As
you
know,
the
assistant,
County
Administrator,
Eric,
Claussen
transportation
and
infrastructure,
a
staff
member
at
Beaufort,
County
and
then
Jennifer
Jennifer
Bragg,
who
is
the
County
transportation
program,
consultant
that
they
have
so
we
did
constitute
the
selection
committee
and
that
selection
committee
is
the
team
that
has
been
moving
through
in
coordination
on
the
procurement
efforts
that
the
county
has
led
number.
Five.
All
recommendations
from
the
Independent
review
for
areas
within
the
project.
Boundary
will
be
considered
for
inclusion
in
the
project.
N
The
the
path
here
was
the
Town
and
County
would
agree
that,
once
the
project
had
received
substantial
funding,
so
there
was
a
gap
and
and
back
in
September
and
October
that
Gap
had
to
be
made
up
in
order
for
the
project
to
be
fully
funded
for
substantially
fully
funded.
Once
that
happened,
and
the
time
frame
was
sometime
in
January
I,
don't
believe
it's
happened
yet,
but
once
it
had
substantial
full
funding,
then
the
county
could
submit
the
the
request
of
federal
highways
based
on
the
current
environmental
assessment
document
that
it
had
that
at
degree.
N
Number
six
that
the
Town
and
County
agreed
as
part
of
the
NEPA
process
to
do
a
value,
engineering,
eliminate
unwanted
costs,
improve
functional
quality
and
then
optimize
the
the
investment
seeking
to
Best
Buy
for
lowest
cost.
That's
a
that's
a
requirement
of
the
NEPA
process.
It
was
explained
at
the
meeting
back
in
October,
but
that
will
advance
as
part
of
the
NEPA
process.
N
As
this
project
review
advances
number
seven,
the
county
and
Tom
Mutual
agree
to
work
together
with
scdot
and
lats
to
design
implementing
a
connected
and
synchronized
signal
system
along
the
entire
length
of
William,
Parkway
us
278
corridor
from
I-95
to
Sea,
Pine
Circle,
and
then
there's
some
additional
detail
about
fiber
fiber
connectivity,
adaptive
signal,
Technologies
and
other
tools
to
maximize
flow
and
that
we'd
work
together
to
seek
funding.
N
The
town
is
currently
advancing
an
Adaptive
traffic
signal
through
its
CIP
program,
I've
just
signed
off
today
on
routing,
so
it
should
go
to
the
next
person.
I
think
is
John
Troyer
and
then
B
and
the
Tom
managers
desk
here
very
shortly.
N
It's
to
replace
all
signals
on
all
25
signals
on
Hilton
island,
with
this
Best
in
Class
adaptive
traffic
signal
technology,
the
town
is
also,
and
and
as
part
of
that
procurement
for
the
RFP.
We
included
County
staff
in
the
procurement
process,
so
that
we
had
some
consistency
in
the
in
the
product
in
the
system
and
the
technology,
so
that,
when
the
county
advances
the
signal
upgrades
on
the
mainland
that
it's
all
coordinated,
speaks
together,
it's
intelligent,
so
we
made
sure
to
include
the
county
and
the
procurement
process.
N
We've
also
asked
the
county
for
funding
from
their
transportation
impact
fee
funds.
There
is
a
Hilton
Head
Island
a
fusky
benefit
District,
and
they
have
tax
or
traffic
impact
fees
that
need
to
be
programmed
within
that
benefit.
District
and
we've
asked
for
funding
in
the
amount
of
3.1
million
dollars
from
the
county
to
put
toward
implementation
of
this
project,
which
would
again
free
up
money
that
we
programmed
in
our
CIP
to
advance.
N
Number
eight
any
signal
Improvement
not
well
from
the
synchronization
project-
that's
not
already
installed
when
the
project.
If
and
when
the
project
moves
forward
would
be
incorporated
in
the
project
so
for
an
example
of
windmill
Harbor.
If
that's,
if
it
turns
out
to
be
a
signal
there,
if
it's
not
installed,
then
that
would
be
the
Adaptive
traffic
signal
will
be
installed
at
that.
So
that
will
advance
as
agreed
a
reminder
at
number
nine.
The
agreement
did
not
did
not
provide
the
town's
Municipal
consent
that
was
reserved
for
once.
N
The
independent
review
was
complete.
That
was
certainly
with
the
town
of
County
up
before
the
right.
N
The
right-of-way
acquisition
acquisition,
phase
of
the
project
were
to
begin
and
so
action-pending
results
of
the
independent
review
and
the
end
and
end
analysis
and
Council
Direction
at
that
time,
and
then
number
10,
the
Town
and
County
agreed
that
the
independent
review
would
be
the
last
and
final
study
needed
for
the
town
to
make
a
final
decision
related
to
the
project
and
again
I
think
that's
a
that's
reserved
to
Town
Council
action
pending
results
of
the
EA
and
and
Analysis
to
to
make
that
decision.
N
As
far
as
next
steps,
Beaufort
County
continues
to
coordinate
the
procurement
of
the
independent
consultant.
There's
a
meeting
of
the
selection
team,
scheduled
for
let's
say
two
Thursday
at
2
p.m.
N
To
discuss
project
scoping
with
the
response
responding
firm,
the
the
selection
team
will
continue
to
evaluate
and
work
toward
making
a
recommendation
toward
a
contract
through
that
joint
effort
and
that,
once
a
firm
is
under
contract,
the
town
will
continue
the
participation
mutually
with
the
county
to
work
to
go
through
the
work
that
was
identified
in
the
scope
of
work
in
the
Moa
and
to
evaluate
findings,
prepare
recommendations
for
Town
and
County
Council
consideration.
I
do
want
to
point
out,
there's
been
been
expressed:
concern
for
the
Pro
from
the
public.
N
The
fact
that
only
one
response
was
received
to
the
RFQ
and
I'm
here
before
Council
today
to
make
sure
I
understand
if
you're,
okay,
with
moving
forward
with
the
current
path,
we're
on
with
procurement
with
the
county
to
perform
the
agreed
upon
work.
If
council
is
not
comfortable
with
that
to
do
an
independent
review
and
end-to-end
Analysis
outside
of
that
would
require
the
town
to
do.
N
The
procurement
I
reckon
I
would
recommend
that
we
advance
with
the
county
on
the
joint
effort
and
then
it's
a
decision
to
counsel
if
they
also
want
to
do
an
in
a
town-led
end-to-end
analysis
that
the
town
of
Precure,
we
can
never
be
too
careful
to
make
sure
we're
making
the
right
decision
so
I'm
I'm,
ready
to
advance
with
the
county
and
and
hear
council's
Direction
on
whether
or
not
they
are
okay
with
that
or
would
need
to
advance
a
town-led
effort.
In
addition,.
A
I
N
However,
we
have
evaluated
the
response
and
the
firm
and
the
qualifications
and
the
references,
and
they
are
a
qualified
firm
that
can
do
the
work.
So
I
don't
want
to
take
that
away
from
the
fact
that
there's
only
one
so
I
do
want
to
point
out
that
the
county
is
going
to
move
forward,
to
advance
selection
of
a
of
a
firm
to
complete
the
work,
and
that's
why
I'm
asking
if,
if
that,
if
the
council's
comfortable
that
we
can
advance
in
that
manner
or
if
not,
we
can.
N
Yes,
sir
I'm
sorry
I
didn't
read
my
final
bullet
there,
but
yes,
I've
reached
out
to
Senator
Davis
and
the
cost
of
complete
one.
If
the
town
were
to
choose
to
go.
That
route
is
about
250
to
300
000
as
the
estimate
and
that
the
funding
would
be
provided
by
or
reimbursed
by
the
state
to
complete
that
effort
and.
I
I
I
also
assume
that
if
the
we
proceed
in
the
second
path-
and
the
advice
we
receive
is
not
favorable-
that
that
would
be
a
reasonable
basis
for
not
giving
Municipal
consent.
I
It
was,
it
said
we
will
not
be
unreasonable,
not
giving
Municipal
consent.
That
was
one
of
the
provisions.
Sir
okay,
overall
I
appreciate
your
presentation.
I
think
it's
excellent
and
I
am
in
favor
of
of
your
recommendations
to
go
with
the
first
one
and
get
a
second
opinion
on
our
own
at
our
expense
or
Senator.
Davis
can
help
that's
even
better.
A
K
So
thank
you
for
the
presentation.
Sean
I
appreciate
all
of
that
information.
Going
back
to
number
three
of
your
of
your
presentation.
The
concerns
that
I
have
as
we
as
I
understand
how
the
RFQ
went
out
was
that
the
county
drafted
it
and
sent
it
out
with
a
five-day
response
and
I
know.
We
have
County
Council
representatives
in
the
audience
today
and
I'm
I'm
curious
about
the
reasonableness
and
talking
about
reasonable
of
sending
out
something
of
this
magnitude
and
require
limiting
or
requiring
that
it's
back
within
five
days.
K
Moreover,
there's
another
one
that
concerns
me
and
it's
related
to
the
extension
of
the
town
and
thank
you
for
doing
so
to
other
companies
that
have
been
worked
with
in
the
past
and
wondering
why
they
didn't
have
an
interest
I,
remember
not
verbatim
but
I.
Remember,
reading
that
particular
line
in
the
County's
paperwork,
where
it
said
that
that
pre
worked
meeting
was
mandatory.
K
But
then
the
second
sentence
of
that
same
bullet
point
said
that
it
was
optional
and
so
I
would
wonder
whether
or
not
that
was
explained
to
that
particular
company
I'm
bothered
that
by
a
number
of
things,
those
being
just
two
that
I'll
mention
here
now
with
regard
to
how
the
the
county
proceeded
to
to
bring
in
those
bids
and
that
interest
I
think
that
the
county
should
step
back
and
perhaps
redo
their
their
work,
that
they've
done
and
make
sure
that
it's
done
in
a
way
and
that
would
encourage
more
than
one
company
to
come
forward.
K
If
they're
not
willing
to
do
so.
I
think
that
two
questions.
First,
the
County's
costs
you
had.
You
had
our
class
to
be
estimated
between
250
300
000.
What
is
our
portion
of
the
counties
cost
to
run
analysis?
K
N
Are
we
contributing
well,
the
agreed
upon
work
from
the
Moa
was
all
going
to
be
covered
under
the
project
cost.
So
no,
there
was
no
cost
to
the
town.
It
was
going
to
be
built
into
part
of
the
overall
project,
cost.
K
Which
long
run
is
definitely
a
cost
to
the
town
just
hidden.
So
what
I
would
like
to
say
is
and
I
appreciate
your
comments.
K
If
Senator
Davis
has
given
us
assurance
that
there's
money
for
reimbursement,
I
think
this
town
has
an
obligation
to
our
residents
to
make
sure
that
this
is
done
with
all
transparency
and
with
an
open
bidding
process
that
elicits
more
than
one
team
to
evaluate
and
so
Mr
Mayor
I
would
request
that
we
as
a
council,
move
forward
with
enlisting
our
own
and
and
project
analysis,
hire
our
own
independent
company.
To
do
that
work
and
to
ask
Senator
Davis
for
help
in
getting
that
reimbursed,
cost.
D
I
have
confidence
in
the
selection
committee
and
that
there's
a
good
deal
of
expertise
having
to
do
with
these
types
of
matters,
but
I
I'm
wondering
you.
You
outlined
a
number
of
things
that
this
consultant
has
demonstrated
expertise
and
experience.
D
N
D
I
think
the
idea
of
having
a
backup
has
been
suggested
here
makes
some
sense.
We
need
to
get
this
project
moving
one
way
or
the
other.
Thank
you.
O
Okay,
I'm,
under
the
assumption
that,
because
the
Moa
has
already
been
adopted,
then
moving
forward
along
with
the
county
is
somewhat
of
a
done
deal.
So
the
discussion
around
having
our
own
is
probably
more
pertinent
right:
okay,
okay,
fair
enough
all
right,
a
few
things
stick
out
to
me:
I
I
share
the
appreciation
Sean
with
you
all,
following
up
with
the
firms
that
did
not
respond
and
I
too
am
concerned
about
only
one
coming
back.
O
One
of
the
items
that
you
learn-
that's
that's
really
peculiar
to
me
is
that
there
was
a
firm
that
said
that
they
did
not
feel
as
if
they
could
acquire
a
South
Carolina
expert
in
the
NEPA
process
and
the
NEPA
process
is
a
federal
process,
correct,
okay,
so
that
that
gives
me
a
lot
of
angst.
I
think
that
we
need
to
be
moving
forward
in
a
direction
where
we
are
getting
a
true
independent
look
at
this,
and
if
it
takes
someone
outside
of
the
state
to
help
us
with
that
I'm.
Definitely,
okay
with
it.
O
You
mentioned
the
the
signal
project
moving
forward,
just
quick
timeline
as
to
absolutely
complete
on
that.
What
are
we
thinking.
G
That
will
have
my
signature
on
it
before
Tuesday's
strategic
plan
Workshop.
So
it
gives
us
a
couple
more
days
today.
The
the
big
sign
off
with
Sean
and
Sean's
worked
with
Brian,
mcelwee
and
and
Jeff
Buckley,
and
a
few
others
to
make
sure
that
the
details
of
the
deliverables
made
sense.
But
now
that
he's
signed
off
on
it,
the
rest
is
just
Mr
Troyer
over
there
making
sure
we
have
the
money.
I
have
asked
politely
and
respectfully.
G
If
we
could
use
some
or
all
of
those
impact
fees
with
the
county,
we
have
funds
in
a
backup
account
we've
applied
for
a
grant,
we
didn't
get
it.
We
have
there's
impact
fees,
so
it's
just
up
to
Mr
Troy
to
say
we
have
the
money
or
the
funds,
and
we-
and
we
know
we
have
it
baked
into
this-
the
capital
program.
So
it's
his
signature
and
my
signature
in
the
next
few
days,
Okay.
O
The
reason
I
asked
because
that
that
Improvement
is
going
to
play
a
huge
part
in
What
the
overall
project
demands,
so
that
that
piece
is
is
definitely
something
that
needs
to
be
considered
and
you've
got
a
250
to
300K
price
tag
up
there
are
we
using
those
numbers
against
the
current
scope
that
we
have
provided
for
the
current
procurement?
Yes,
okay,
I'm,
also
in
favor
of
us
getting
our
own
independent,
true
independent
study
on
this
I
would
just
add,
as
we
as
we
look
at
that
scope.
O
O
I'd
also
add
that
this
project,
although
we
we
don't
see
it
right
away,
it
also
affects
all
of
our
intersections
within,
and
the
ins
and
outs
there
and
I
think
that
piece
has
to
fall
into
consideration
for
us,
also
keeping
in
mind
what
will
happen
on
the
bridges.
Okay,
once
you
open
that
valve
wide
open,
it
will
have
some
adverse
effects
elsewhere.
So
I'd
like
for
us
to
spend
a
little
time
on
on
our
own
scope
if
we're
going
to
move
forward
independently.
Thank
you.
O
C
N
N
C
And
with
our
own
also
support
getting
our
own
study
done
with
all
due
respect
to
the
county
and
its
interest
I'm
here
to
represent
the
town
residents
and
the
workforce
and
the
businesses
on
the
town
and
I
I
want
to
continue
to
have
dialogue
with
County
and
keep
working
on
projects
together.
This
does
not
mean
I.
Don't
want
to
do
that,
but
I
do
believe
that
we
need
to
have
our
own
and
I
hope
that
we
can
proceed
expeditiously
to
do
that.
C
I
hope
we'll
have
better
results
with
our
procurement
method,
but
I
I'm,
also
and
I,
wanted
to
say
a
couple
things
about
reaching
this
decision
whenever
I
consider
anything
to
come
before
the
Town
Council
I'm,
going
to
start
using
some
decision
standards
and
those
standards
are
five-fold.
The
first
thing
I'm
going
to
ask
is:
does
this
help
out
with
the
safety
of
residence
Workforce
and
visitors
and
I
do
believe
that
having
good
data
on
this
kind
of
system
would
do
that?
C
Another
decision
point
is:
are
we
being
good
stewards
of
our
resources,
our
financial
resources,
our
human
resources,
all
of
our
resources
and
not?
Finally,
the
decision
point,
but,
amongst
all
the
decision,
points
because
I
consider
these
to
be
of
equal
importance
is:
are
we
giving
respect
for
and
protection
of
our
heritage,
especially
the
historic,
Gala
communities
and
I
believe
that
we
need
to
keep
that
of
utmost
concern
in
this
project?
C
K
Mr
Mayor,
if
I
may
just
jump
in
right
after
that,
because
I
want
to
second
that
last
comment:
it's
something
that
we've
been
asking
for
for
quite
some
time:
councilwoman
Bryson,
put
it
beautifully
and
I
want
to
Second
it
and
encourage
it
and
move
out
everything
to
make
sure
it
happens.
Okay,
okay,
thank
you.
F
N
The
there
was
a
restriction
that
couldn't
have
the
relationship
with
DOT,
the
town
or
the
county.
There
was
some
conflicting
information
in
the
mandatory
pre-bed
that
it
was
mandatory,
but
also
encouraged.
F
No
Geographic
restriction.
No
sir.
N
I'm,
an
optimistic
person
I
think
we
would
get
more
than
one
I
can't
guarantee
it
I,
because
I
think
we're.
We
would
be
minus
one
if
the
county,
procures,
I,
don't
think
they're
going
to
do.
The
Joint
one
with
us
in
the
county,
so
I
think
we've
produced
the
pool
a
little
bit.
I
I
shared
the
responses
from
those
that
we
talked
to
I'm,
optimistic
that
we
would
get
more
than
one
I,
don't
know,
only
only
seven
to
attended
the
mandatory
pre-bid
and
only
one
was
restricted.
F
F
F
I
I
am
at
the
point
that
I
think
we
need
to
make
a
decision
and
and
I'm
willing
to
go
along
with
this
decision
to
have
a
independent,
town-led
consultant,
but
I
think
we
have
to
coordinate
the
timing
of
that
with
the
county,
so
we
don't
get
into
the
bind
of
holding
up
a
project
that
needs
to
move
forward.
Thank
you,
sir.
A
Good,
thank
you.
David.
First
of
all,
we've
got
an
MOA
with
the
county
that
we
have
to
adhere
to
I
I
wanted
to
be
clear
that
that
we're
not
not
working
with
the
county
that
we
are
still
in
this
together
and
if
we
do
our
separate
end-to-end
study,
it
is
for
us,
and
it's
because
of
us-
has
nothing
against
the
county
in
their
drive
to
get
this
forward.
I
think
it's
really
important
to
understand
that,
especially
from
a
county
standpoint
that
we're
not
going
against
anyone
in
the
county.
A
A
I
agree
with
Patsy
that
we
have
to
take
the
citizens
voices
to
Heart.
It
is
important,
I
agree
with
David
that
I
will
follow
along
with
this,
in
support
of
it
as
long
as
it
does
not
interfere
with
the
timeline
and
the
in
the
future
project
at
hand.
P
K
Sean
I
know
that
you
mentioned
the
timing
with
regard
to
the
signaling
and
if
we
can
get
more
information
about
that
because
clearly
that's
a
critical
piece
of
this,
because
I
do
believe
as
councilman
Brown
mentioned,
that
will
change
the
change,
the
view
of
how
we're
looking
at
this.
So
if
you
can
get
us
a
rough
idea
of
that,
I'd
appreciate
it.
Yeah.
G
From
a
high
level
will
will
provide
that
to
you
on
the
25th,
as
we
review
Capital
Improvement
programming
at
9
00
a.m
in
strategic
plan
next
week.
We'll
share
that
schedule
with
you,
but
we'll
also
the
rollout
schedule,
but
we'll
also
between
now,
and
then
ask
the
preferred
vendor
the
contractor.
When
we
could
expect
to
have
that
information
to
assess
they
can
give
us
a
okay.
K
C
Secondly,
to
direct
the
mayor
to
appoint
a
Review
Committee
in
consultation
with
a
Town
Council
to
be
composed
of
three
to
five
members
with
at
least
one
town
council
member,
at
least
one
engineer
from
the
Hilton
Head
community
and
at
least
one
representative
of
the
Stony
community
and
ex-officio
town
staff
members,
at
least
a
planner,
and
an
engineer.
In
order
to
review
the
work
of
the
independent
consultant
report
to
the
community
and
to
the
Town
Council.
G
Sir
well
I
could
just
if
I
see
some
head
nodding
along
that
scope
and
what
I'm,
what
I'm
taking
notes
up
here
is
refine.
The
scope
establish
the
committee.
If
we're
going
to
put
members
on
the
committee
I'll
put
that
on
the
next
agenda
and
we
can
get
back
in
there
with
you
of
how
we
do
it
between
now
and
then
we'll
put
the
the
bid
documents
together,
we'll
we'll
mobilize
that
way.
G
G
Thank
you.
Thank
you.
Thank
you.
Sean
amazing
job.
Thank
you
all
right.
Next,
one
thing
that
we
did
last
year
as
Mr
Gruber
walks
up
is,
we
have
established,
do
you
have
as
a
council
and
we
have
as
a
staff
established
a
gulligichi
historic,
neighborhoods,
Community
Development
Corporation.
We
are
live
with
our
Corporation,
it's
a
non-profit
and
we
are
currently
seeking
board
of
directors
and
we
will
soon
seek
an
exec
director
not
to
steal
your
thunder,
but.
L
L
Yes,
no,
the
Articles
of
Incorporation
were
accepted
in
October
of
this
past
year,
on
January
6
staff
had
prepared
a
recruitment
brochure
to
identify
potential
board
members
for
the
corporation.
Those
materials
went
live
on
our
website
on
January
6th.
On
January
9th,
we
enacted
a
comprehensive
communication
plan
to
distribute
those
materials
Island
wide.
As
of
today,
we've
received
five
applications.
We
are
continuing
to
solicit
and
accept
applications
up
through
the
appointment
of
members
to
the
board
of
directors
and
just
for
a
refresher
there's,
a
minimum
of
five
members
and
a
maximum
of
nine
members.
L
After
that
point,
staff
is
also
finalizing
a
separate
brochure
to
issue
to
recruit
an
executive
director
for
the
corporation,
we're
going
to
have
that
information
prepared
and
released
publicly
by
the
end
of
this
month
and
then
once
the
director
once
the
board
members
have
been
appointed
and
the
director
has
been
hired.
Some
of
the
other
items
that
they're
going
to
focus
on
are
we're
going
to
develop
some
training
and
development
opportunities
for
the
board.
L
L
F
G
I
could
add
it.
It
is
online.
We
Carolyn
did
a
great
job,
releasing
a
press
release.
Kelly
I'll,
ask
you
for
an
extra
Facebook
post
or
two,
because
we
know
that
the
the
the
recruitment
is
regional
and
local.
So
if
you
could
do
that,
so
we're
trying
to
get
the
word
out
there
as
much
as
possible.
This.
F
O
I
had
the
pleasure
of
walking
in
the
MLK
march
on
yesterday
with
Senator
Davis,
and
he
asked
me
a
question
that
I
could
not
answer
and
that
is
have
we
received
the
funds
from
the
state.
Yet
we.
L
Have
not
received
the
funds,
but
we
have
been
in
direct
discussions
with
the
Department
of
Commerce,
which
is
the
state
agency
who
the
funds
were
deposited
with
and
they've
outlined
to
us
kind
of
the
series
of
documentation
that
they're
going
to
need
in
order
for
them
to
release
that
funding
to
us
and
staff
is
working
on
preparing
that
information
so
before
you
tonight,
as
part
of
the
budget
amendments
is
an
acceptance
and
acknowledgment
of
that
funding.
L
C
Mayor
a
couple
questions.
Thank
you.
Mr
Gruber
help
me
remember
the
appointment
of
the
board
members
does
that
come
back
through
Town
Council.
Does
it
go
through
community
services
and
Public
Safety
Committee.
C
Right,
great-
and
the
other
thing
I
want
to
do-
is
to
thank
the
town
manager
and
his
staff
for
broadening
our
Outreach
and
and
to
Mr
Ames
for
speaking
about
our
Outreach,
for
not
only
members
of
this
board,
but
also
all
of
our
boards
and
commissions,
because
we
need
to
have
a
more
proactive
outreach
program
and
I
appreciate
you
doing
that.
Thank.
Q
A
K
Just
as
for
folks
who
are
here
listening,
the
funding
amount,
can
you
can
you
just
let
folks
know
how
much
money
it
is
that
we
are
anticipating
that
was
promised.
L
So
we're
we're
gonna,
look
to
do
five
million
dollars
in
funding
from
the
state
again
through
the
Department
of
Commerce.
That
was
part
of
a
budget
earmark,
and
then
there
was
funds
from
the
county
through
the
good
neighbor
program,
which
was
the
American
Rescue
plan,
which
I
believe
was
353
thousand
dollars
give
or
take
all.
G
Right
and
how
we'll
use
those
funds
is
this
year,
as
we
present
the
budget
to
you,
we'll
present
a
brand
new
budget,
so
another
fund
I
should
say
so.
We
currently
have
four
we'll
have
five
presented
to
you
in
the
budget
cycle,
and
the
fifth,
of
course,
is
the
Community
Development
Corporation.
That
will
be
clear
on
what
the
startup
operating
costs
are,
as
well
as
that
five
million
dollars
and
how
that's
how
that's
parked
in
a
budget
for
now
so.

and
the
work
she's
done,
and
we've
done
since
then,
and
then
Ben's
right
up
in
the
batter's
box
to
give
a
quick
update
on
the
public-private
partnership.
R
Mayor
council
members,
thank
you
for
having
me
so.
Yes,
the
workforce
housing
framework
was
adopted
on
November
1st
and
it's
made
up
of
four
pillars:
Community
planning
management
and
revenue
and
I'm
happy
to
announce
that
the
creation
of
the
workforce,
housing
program
manager
position
has
been
created,
which
is
direct
implementation
of
the
management
pillar.
It
posted
on
January
3rd,
and
we
have
a
robust
recruitment
strategy
in
place
right
now.
It
will
remain
posted
until
it's
filled,
we're
already
receiving
applicants.
R
So
we're
really
excited
about
that
and
we
also
are
under
contract
with
a
Workforce
housing
expert
consultant
here
to
help
us
begin
some
implementation
prior
to
that
staff.
Member
coming
on
board.
So
we
all
worked
with
Tammy
Hoy
Hawkins
of
together
Consulting
with
the
creation
of
the
framework
and
that's
who
we're
working
with
on
implementation,
and
we
are
working
on
the
first
kind
of
items
right
right
out
of
the
gates
are
to
create
that
displacement
strategy
that
we
talked
about
both
during
the
framework
creation,
as
well
as
during
the
discussions
about
chimney.
R
Cove,
we're
also
going
to
define
the
structure
of
establishment
of
a
committee
that
would
help
advise
Workforce
housing,
we're
working
to
already
create
relationships
with
housing
organizations
and
create
an
asset
map
of
those
who
are
working
in
the
housing
space.
We've
already
begun
meeting
with
community
members
to
to
talk
about
housing,
we're
going
to
also
create
a
rent
survey
and
then
create
a
database
and
begin
that
catalog
of
housing
metrics
that
we're
going
to
want
to
gather
and
then
also
we're
going
to
begin
talking
about
creating
a
Workforce
housing
community
survey.
C
I
appreciate
that
that's
a
lot
of
work
to
be
doing
and
appreciate
that
just
a
timeline
on
housing
action
committee,
so
that
our
community
services
and
Public
Safety
Committee
will
be
ready
to
make
appointments.
But
do
we
know
when
that
committee
proposal
might
come
before
Town
Council,
so
we
can
flesh
out
how
what
what
are
going
to
be
their
mission,
their
strategies
Etc,
so
that
we
can
move
forward.
Any
kind
of
timeline
on
that.
R
I'm
hopeful
that
we'll
sometime
in
the
first
quarter
of
this
year
that
we'll
have
the
the
structure
of
what
that
committee
could
look
like
and
and
discuss
its
relationship
with
be
an
advisory
or
what
kind
of
role
and
and
how
those
members
would
be
appointed.
So
a
recommendation
on
that
would
happen
in
the
first
quarter.
Okay,.
G
And-
and
that
means
January,
February,
March
and
I'm
gonna
caution
Missy
to
to
be
mindful
of
that,
because
Missy's
also
working
on
our
Land
Management
ordinance
and
our
district
plan.
So
the
one
thing
that
I'm
trying
to
do
is
you
know
we're
in
a
hurry
to
one
work
with
Tammy
Hoy,
and
we
are
also
really
spending
a
lot
of
our
time
on
trying
to
recruit
and
hire
and
on
board
the
right
person.
The
housing
committee
is
important,
I
think
Missy
and
I
and
and
chair
person.
G
G
Right
next,
here's
the
real
reason
why
we
are
why
I'm
a
little
reluctant
to
over
commit
to
the
committee,
because
our
our
next
project
in
in
Ben,
Brown
who's
who's,
been
a
great
help
to
our
staff
and
and
to
me,
is
going
to
give
you
a
quick
update
on
our
North
Point
public-private
partnership,
Workforce
housing
project.
As
you
all
know,.
S
Thank
you,
Mr
Mayor
members
of
council
I've
been
very
involved
in
this
project
over
the
last.
Almost
seven
months
and
I'll
provide
some
brief
background
and
as
well
as
anticipated
path
forward.
But
if
there
are
any
questions
at
all,
please
please
let
me
know,
but
going
back
to
April.
That's
when
the
town
prepared
the
request
for
qualifications
that
went
out
to
solicit
a
development
partner,
very
successful.
We
had
10
companies
that
responded.
S
They
were
interested
in
helping
us
provide
Workforce
housing
on
Hilton
Head
in
June,
Town
Council
adopted
a
resolution
creating
the
North
Point
public-private
partnership,
housing,
advisory
committee
and
I
know
that
happened
on
June,
21st
and
I
knew
it
was
June
21st,
because
I
I
joined
the
team
on
June
20th
and
since
that
time
we've
had
a
lot
of
progress,
but
we
had
our
first
kickoff
meeting
in
July
and
we
reviewed
the
the
firms,
the
10
firms
that
submitted
their
qualifications,
and
it
was
the
advice
of
the
housing
advisory
committee
to
invite
seven
of
those
firms
to
submit
full
development
proposals,
and
we
didn't
know
at
that
point
how
many
proposals
we
would
receive,
but
to
our
Delight,
all
seven
firms
submitted
development
proposals
and
while
we
were
waiting
to
review
those
we
reached
out
to
some
other
communities,
we
talked
to
Martha's
Vineyard,
we
talked
to
Charleston.
S
We
talked
to
the
Athens
housing
authority
to
really
ask
them
questions
about
best
practices.
We
also
completed
Ami
research,
in-house
and
I
found.
This
really
helpful.
Nicktay
under
Missy's
leadership
did
a
lot
of
Grassroots
research
where
we
identified
over
20
key
positions
in
the
community,
and
then
she
reached
out
to
local
employers
to
ask
what
the
salaries
were
for
these
positions.
And
then
she
linked
the
position
to
salary
to
Beaufort.
S
County
Ami
range
very
helpful,
and
then
we
could
link
Ami
range
to
Affordable
rents,
and
that
was
great
because
her
her
list
had
everything
from
caregivers
to
teachers,
to
police
officers,
to
Firefighters,
to
nurses,
really
good
information.
It
helped
us,
as
we
were
reviewing
development
proposals
to
understand
who
we
are
trying
to
serve
and
that
data
showed
us
that
we're
trying
to
serve
really
a
60
to
120
percent
of
Beaufort
County
Ami
range
for
our
first
project
on
Hilton
Head.
Then.
S
S
We
also
completed
a
capacity
study
in-house
just
for
us
to
understand
what
is
really
an
appropriate
amount
of
density
for
this
property
and
that
helped,
for
example,
if
a
if
a
firm
came
in
with
something
way
higher
than
what
we
thought
was
appropriate
for
the
neighborhood
character
of
this
area.
It
would
help
us
understand
if
that
was
or
was
not
an
outlier
that
helped
the
committee.
We
also
did
a
site
analysis
to
really
understand
the
property.
Where
are
significant
trees?
S
But
we
reviewed
the
seven
proposals
with
the
the
seven
proposals
that
we
received
with
the
housing
committee
and
the
committee
recommended
that
we
interview
all
seven
firms.
So
over
a
two-day
period,
we
interviewed
the
seven
firms
very
good
process.
We
asked
a
lot
of
questions.
We
got
a
lot
of
feedback
and
as
quickly
as
we
could,
following
that
interview
process,
we
reconvened
with
the
committee
and
we
discussed
path
forward
and
path
forward,
consisted
of
my
calling
the
seven
firms,
even
the
firms
that
we
knew
probably
weren't
our
development
partner,
but
really
talking
with
them.
S
So
they
could
understand
our
thought
process,
thanking
them
for
their
considerable
time
and
letting
them
know
that,
even
if
this
isn't
the
project,
maybe
there
is
another
project
in
Hilton,
head's
future
that
that
could
fit
your
company.
We
also
as
recently
as
last
week,
we
spent
a
day
with
one
of
our
finalists
and
we
started
out
at
10
a.m,
and
we
did
a
tour
of
the
island.
It
consisted
of
the
housing
advisory
committee
members
as
well
as
some
staff
members.
S
We
visited
the
Sea
Pines
as
Palmetto
Village
project
Cliff
was
very,
very
helpful
in
helping
us
understand
that
project.
We
visited
the
island
wreck,
we
visited
the
boys
and
girls
club
and
we
also
visited
the
North
Point
Property,
but
we
talked
about
design
matters
on
Hilton
Head,
sustainable,
neighborhood,
design
matters.
S
They
understood
that,
but
they
really
I
don't
think
truly
appreciated
the
diversity
of
our
community,
and
so
we
until
we
spend
time
at
the
boys
and
girls
club
and
Island
rec
and
I
I,
found
that
to
be
very
valuable
and
I
know
that
was
valuable
to
our
possible
development
partner.
And
then
we
came
back
to
town
hall.
S
We
had
lunch
and
we
spent
about
two
hours
really
discussing
what
a
partnership
could
look
like
and
getting
an
opportunity
to
better
know
each
other
and
to
see
if,
if
this
is
the
right
partnership,
so
what
is
the
path
forward?
The
path
forward
is
we're
working
closely
with
our
legal
team
to
prepare
a
term
sheet
and
if
the
term
sheet
is
supported
by
the
housing
advisory
committee,
we
would
present
that
term
sheet
to
our
finalists.
If
we
can
agree
on
terms
at
that
point,
the
town
would
award
the
RFP
to
this
preferred
development
partner.
S
Now
we
still
have
a
lot
of
work
ahead
of
us
after
this
point,
because
we
have
to
begin
to
negotiate
a
development
agreement.
This
is
close
work
with
our
legal
team,
as
well
as
our
policy
team
to
prepare
a
development
agreement
that
is
supported
by
the
housing
advisory
committee,
supported
by
the
town
manager,
supported
by
our
preferred
development
partner.
But
our
ultimate
goal
would
then
be
for
the
town
manager
to
present
a
preferred
development
agreement
to
the
Town
Council
for
your
review
and
consideration.
S
Now,
one
thing
I've
been
asked:
several
times
is
well:
when
are
we
going
to
actually
start
this
project
and
I
hate
to
say
dates
because
I
always
I
always
make
the
people
around
me
really
nervous,
but
I
can
tell
you
that
I
personally
would
like
nothing
more
than
to
have
shovels
in
the
ground
in
early
2024
and
I'm
happy
to
answer
any
questions
and
and
I.
Thank
you
for
your
time
and
really
I
just
appreciate
the
opportunity
to
be
involved
in
this
project.
S
We
don't,
it
really
depends
on
how
quickly
we
can
come
to
an
agreement
with
the
development
partner,
the
legal
team.
We
have
a
meeting
scheduled
for
Friday,
where
we
can
start
talking
about
the
terms
then,
as
soon
as
we
have
that
we
present
it
to
the
housing
advisory
committee.
We
could
do
that
in
about
a
week
and
then
we
would
present
that
to
the
preferred
development
partner
and
that's
really
when
the
negotiation
starts.
I
I
mean
I
would
love
to
say
30
days,
but
I
I
can't
and.
G
And
I'm
going
to
keep
you
as
a
Town
Council
updated
along
the
way.
Definitely
you
know
my
goal
is
to
have
a
draft
develop
me
in
a
term
sheet,
of
course,
but
a
draft
developer
agreement,
you
know
I'd
call
it
version
one
in
front
of
you
no
later
than
the
April
Town
council
meeting
for
us
to
start
talking
about
the
details.
D
Glenn
Ben,
thank
you
for
a
great
report,
exciting
things
that
you've
got
ongoing
and
it
seems
beautifully
organized
I'm,
a
little
concerned
confused
about
the
selection.
Have
you
essentially
selected
this
one
development
partner
as
to
be
the
one
that
is
most
likely
to
be
chosen
for
for
North,
Point
or
I?
Think
I
heard
you
say
you
had.
You
took
one
around
town
and
you
had
six
others,
so
does
that
mean
that
one
is
likely
to
be
the
selection?
Just
a
question.
S
G
Want
to
say,
more
private
sector.
He
wants
to
sign
the
contract
next
week,
but
we
have
to
get
we
have.
We
actually
have
to
get
to
a
negotiation
table
with
what
we
believe
as
a
team,
housing
Committee
involved.
Definitely
advising
me
who
we
think
that
preferred
contractor
partner
is
we're
getting
closer.
Not
unless
and
until
we
have
an
agreement.
Have
we
selected,
and
you
will
obviously
be
part
of
that
selection.
You
will
vote
on
the
contract,
which
will
then
in
turn
select
that
partner
so
really.
C
Yes,
sir,
all
right,
thank
you.
Mr
Brown
I'm,
certainly
not
going
to
suggest
terms
of
any
sort
of
agreement,
but
it's
my
understanding.
The
town
owns
this
property
and
so
we're
looking
at
some
sort
of
long-term
land
lease,
not
a
conveyance
of
the
property.
Is
that
still
where
our
thinking
is
we're.
G
G
You
know
and
they've
worked
on
our
bonds,
so
we
we
know
them,
they
work
closely
with
Franny
Heiser,
but
they
know
us
as
well
and
they
have
a
part
of
their
company
that
simply
strictly
focuses
on
Workforce
and
affordable
housing
financing,
and
so
we've
been
blessed
to
have
them
close
to
us.
Thank
you.
A
K
I
know
Mark
that
you
mentioned
that
by
April
you
would
have
something
to
bring
to
the
full
Council.
It
sounds
as
little.
First
of
all,
I
should
just
stop
what
a
great
presentation.
Thank
you,
very,
detailed,
very
thorough
and
and
very
easy
to
follow.
I
appreciate
that
hard
work
that
it
takes
to
deliver
that
and
I
know
all
the
work
behind.
It
has
been
top-notch
I'm
curious
as
being
an
outsider
on
this.
Is
there
an
opportunity,
perhaps
an
executive
session,
for
a
for
a
review.
K
I
know
we
have
a
committee
comprised
of
some
council
members,
but
I
feel
as
though
a
little
bit
more
transparency,
at
least
for
the
time
being
within
this
Council
it
is
appropriate.
April
is
an
awful
long
way
away
and
it
sounds
like
things
are
moving
very
quickly
and
I'd
like
to
be
informed.
G
The
answer
is
yes,
ma'am,
with
the
exception
of
today's
agenda,
simply
because
we
had
an
open
session
update,
we
have
parked
and
have
kept
the
North
Point
Housing
public-private,
Partnership
contractual
matters
in
exact
session
and
have
provided
those
updates
for
at
least
six
ish
months
of
last
year,
so
we'll
make
sure
that
that
remain
on
there
in
February
and
continue
so.
Yes,.
A
A
Seeing
none
will
continue
to
move
forward,
Mr
Stanford
in
a
report
from
Latz
no
report,
sir.
Thank
you.
K
Not
yet
I
do
want
to
remind
everyone
that
Monday
January
23rd,
we
have
a
meeting
and
encourage
you
to
participate
by
attending.
Thank
you.
O
Thank
you,
Mr
Mayor,
f,
a
committee
mitt
today
two
topics,
one
was
to
approve
our
meeting
schedule
for
2023,
where
we
decided
to
adhere
to
the
dates
proposed,
but
change
the
time
to
1
pm
so
that
we
can
carry
it
on
to
normal,
Town
council
meeting.
The
second
item
we
took
on
was
the
organization
of
a
small
and
minority
business
Enterprise
plan
and
program.
We
just
opened
discussion
today
lots
of
good
feedback
from
the
committee
members
as
long
as
as
well
as
the
public,
and
we
will
continue
that
conversation
at
our
next
meeting.
Thank.
A
You
very
much
now
on
to
appearance
by
citizens.
I
would
like
to
remind
our
citizens
that
each
person
has
three
minutes
to
address
Town
Council.
At
the
end
of
the
three
minutes,
you
are
asked
to
conclude
your
comments.
Please
maintain
a
decorum
suitable
for
the
meeting
and
refrain
from
using
any
profane,
abusive
or
obscene
language.
In
addition,
if
you
have
any
documents
that
you
would
like
to
give
to
council,
please
do
so
after
your
three
minutes
to
the
town
clerk
Krista.
Is
there
anyone
signed
up
to
speak
today?
Yes,.
U
U
Right
actually
I'm
going
to
give
my
three
minutes
to

U

There
you
go:
okay,
Alan,
you
said
Town
Council
has
too
many
committees
and
should
delegate
more
work
to
the
chamber
when
asked
how
you
feel
about
the
chamber
using
2.5
million
in
annual
tax
funds
with
no
invoices
or
receipts
you're.
Okay,
with
the
chamber
operations,
no
need
for
transparency,
no
need
to
grind
down
on
every
invoice.
Is
this
how
you
operate
as
a
mortgage
broker?
Allen
the
chambers,
a
local
non-profit,
Business
League,
and
has
nothing
to
do
with
government
or
be
tax
funded
to
promote
tourism,
nor
sell
advertising
for
private
profit.
It's
an
illegal!
V
It's
illegal
under
state
and
federal
IRS
laws.
Federal
IRS,
non-profit
tax
tax
law
prevails
over
any
corrupt
state
or
local
law
or
code.
Bill
Miles
said
he
how
he
uses.
Tax
money
is
his
secret
sauce
and
it's
no
one's
business,
Mr
Perry,
who
runs
this
town
Bill
Miles.
It
certainly
isn't
you
as
a
full-time
mortgage
broker
and
a
part-time
mayor,
because
nothing
works
part-time.
V
You
said
the
chamber
has
a
contract
that
follows
state
law.
You
will
ensure
spending
transparency
and
did
not
want
the
town
to
get
into
a
lawsuit
with
the
chamber.
Alan
This
Is,
A
Lie,
the
chamber
contract
is
fraudulent.
It's
not
valid.
The
town
is
in
violation
of
procurement,
a
tax
and
foia
laws
to
afford
enforce
your
associate
miles
to
show
how
he
uses
millions
of
tax
money.
V
It
seems
you
have
been
coached
by
Bill
miles
in
the
town
and
chamber
lawyers
and
what
to
say
your
friend
Steve
Arnold,
the
entire
eight
tax
committee
and
Town
Council
keep
voting
for
funding
to
the
chamber,
all
knowingly
breaking
the
law.
We
will
watch
how
you
vote
and
you
will
be
held
accountable
for
breaking
the
law
and
liable
Mr
Perry.
You
stated
you
saw
the
chamber
accounting,
80
percent
of
the
receipts
and
invoices
who
gave
you
access
when
no
one
else
can
get
this
information.
This
is
a
lie
and
it's
fraud.
V
Are
you
prepared
to
comply
to
my
foia
and
hand
over
this
chamber,
accounting
to
me
today
or
this
week?
Mr
Perry.
You
are
fully
aware
of
both
state
and
federal
laws
being
violated
by
Bill
Miles.
You
can't
be
this
uninformed
and
deny
this.
It's
called
corruption
and
why
you're
not
qualified
to
be
a
mayor?
V
Mr
Perry,
you
are
a
part-time
figurehead
and
admitted
Mark.
Orlando
was
a
full-time
leader
in
power,
assisted
by
as
my
in
my
opinion,
crooked
Town
lawyers
and
CPAs
I
should
address
them
directly,
not
you
or
this
Council,
who
are
all
weak
and
controlled
like
puppets
in
so
many
ways
by
these
full-time
professional
Crooks.
None
of
you
have
seen
the
numbers
these
employees
had
in
our
100
million
dollar,
Town
budgets
or
audits.
None
of
you
have
forensic
audit
knowledge
and
the
town,
corruption
and
the
legal
legal
tax
use
and
non-transparency
must
end.
This
is
our
year.
V
X
Thank
you
all
Mr,
Mayor
and
Council
we're
asking
for
one
thing
today.
One
simple
thing:
I
sent
you
all
a
list
of
documents.
Please
spend
one
hour
60
minutes
and
read
those
documents.
There
are
five
documents
that
we
sent.
You
close
to.
Ten
thousand
people
have
asked
for
an
independent
review
of
the
corridor
project.
X
The
devil
is
in
the
details
and
we
still
don't
have
any
details
of
what's
Happening,
we
don't
know
what
we're
getting
if
it'll
work,
if
it's
safe,
what
it
will
really
cost,
how
it
will
impact
us
and
what
our
other
options
are.
I,
don't
know
that
the
10
000
people
who
don't
know
that
and
no
one
on
this
Dias
knows
that
the
transparency
of
this
project
has
been
close
to
zero.
X
The
traffic
and
congestion
analysis
must
include
the
compound
effect
of
all
those
mergers,
splits
intersections
and
traffic
lights,
not
adding
them
up
one
at
a
time
as
the
president
County
process
does.
Safety
must
be
key.
I
just
see
we
had
another
death
on
on
Route
278
we're
going
to
put
a
six-lane
Expressway
down
through
a
heavy
residential
area.
How
many
more
people
are
we
going
to
kill
if
we're
not
careful,
the
missing
and
hidden
parts
of
the
plan
must
be
exposed.
If
you
read
the
documents,
you'll
see
they're
missing
into
hidden
parts.
X
Alternate
options
must
be
shown
we
haven't
been
given
any
alternate
options.
We've
been
given
slight
perturbations
of
where
they're
going
to
run
the
concrete
of
the
six
Lanes.
The
current
plan
is
neither
effective
or
safe
and
I
challenge.
Anyone
to
show
me
that
it
is
or
us
that
it
is
unfortunately,
up
to
now
Beaufort
County
has
corrupted
the
process
blocking
proper
oversight
of
this
for
years.
X
We
hope
changes
in
County,
Council
and
certainly
changes
here
will
change
that
if
you
do
an
independent
review,
you're
actually
going
to
save
time,
because
there's
so
many
flaws
in
this
current
plan.
That
scdot
has
put
together
it's
going
to
bounce
in
the
nepper
process
and
if
you
don't
identify
it,
we've
interceded
already
with
the
Fonzi
process
as
you'll
see
in
the
documents
we've
written
directly
to
the
federal
authorities,
we're
going
to
try
to
ensure
that
this
process
this
system
is
safe
and
effective.
It
is
not
right.
X
Now
we
have
everything
to
gain
and
nothing
to
lose
from
a
proper,
independent
review
and
I'm
delighted
that
you've
all
decided
that
tonight
that's
a
real
positive
step.
We
can't
let
the
county
divert
us
again:
they've
consistently
done
that
they
they
want
us
to
buy
a
used
car
or
the
dealer.
Won't,
let
us
get
an
independent
inspection,
they
pick
their
own
inspector
and
they
restrict
what
they
inspect.
We
can't
do
that
I,
don't
understand
what
they're
so
afraid
of.
We
assume
that
you
folks
are
decent
and
honest
people.
X
A
Y
Good
afternoon
Mr
Mayor
members
of
the
council,
Peter
Christian,
congratulations,
Alan!
Thank
you
Patsy
and
Tamara
and
Stephen
being
elected.
You
got
a
big
job
ahead
of
you
heard
a
lot
of
talk
about
the
278
corridor
and
there's
lots
of
development
that
you
know
has
already
been
approved
in
Jasper
County,
and
also
a
lot
of
developments
improved
the
Jonesville
Road
area
and
Spanish
Wells
Road
area.
It's
common,
it's
approved
and
it's
going
to
bring
cars
and
it's
going
to
bring
traffic
and
I
know.
Y
We
want
to
study
things
perfectly,
but
we
also
need
to
solve
the
problem
and
we
need
to
get
Workers
onto
the
island,
because
Workforce
housing
is
not
going
to
be
the
sole
solution
to
that
problem.
We
need
to
move
folks
in
and
off
this
island
I
employ
over
100
people,
and
many
of
them
come
from
Ridgeland
Parts
North
an
hour
and
a
half
commute,
so
we
need
to
solve
the
problem.
Y
Y
Last
comment:
I
have
the
occasion
to
read
reports
about
EMS
and
my
Security
Department,
responding
to
Medical
emergencies
and
in
the
last
three
weeks,
I've
had
a
10-7
which
is
an
individual
passed
away.
I've
had
an
individual
who
has
been
revived,
an
individual
that
fell
down
and
needed
to
be
transported
in
each
and
every
case.
Y
Our
folks,
our
EMS
responded
in
a
professional
manner
and
even
in
the
situation
where
they
worked
on
a
poor
individual
who
passed
away
for
over
an
hour,
the
feedback
I
received
from
the
family
on
how
our
EMS
behaved
in
a
professional
and
caring
manner
was
just
unsurpassed.
So
compliments
to
them
and
keep
up
the
good
work.
Z
Well,
my
comments
aren't
directed
exactly
that
way,
but
as
president
of
Jonesville
preservation
Society
a
few
weeks
ago,
I
asked
for
a
moratorium.
According
to
our
own
survey,
over
90
percent
of
respondents
from
all
across
the
island
are
in
support
of
a
six-month
moratorium.
95
percent
favor
a
rollback
on
zoning
to
decrease
density.
The
Jonesville
area
is
a
unique
and
intricate
part
of
the
fabric
of
this
island.
Z
Without
the
moratorium,
we
are
all
subject
to
the
devastating
effects
of
development
developers,
landowners
and
investors
with
their
greed,
export
to
exploit
this
part
of
the
island
soon,
if
not
already,
it
will
affect
other
areas.
I
ask
you:
is
this
the
vision
Council
for
c's
for
Hilton,
Head
I
understand
the
Jonesville
area
is
very
appealing
for
developers.
This
is
a
very
unique
area
of
the
island
with
an
abundance
of
historical
and
environmental
value.
This
is
a
galagichi
neighborhood.
Z
This
is
not
an
area
for
multi-family
dwellings.
This
community
is
assessed
by
a
single
Road
one
entry.
One
exit
multi-family
subdivisions
threaten
the
very
safety
of
this
community
and
its
residents.
Three
generations
of
my
family
now
call
Jonesville
their
home,
not
unlike
many
other
families
in
the
neighborhood
I
bought
my
home
and
have
spent
endless
hours
developing
developing
it
to
be
a
place
where
my
friends,
family
members
could
visit,
enjoy
the
holidays,
birthdays,
family
gatherings
Etc.
This
is
my
legacy
to
my
family
to
be
handed
down
from
generation
to
generation.
Z
Z
The
rules
and
regulations
and
the
rules
and
regulations
no
longer
serve
the
best
interest
of
Hilton
Head.
The
moratorium
will
give
us
all
time
to
express
our
concerns
find
solutions
to
the
existing
developmental
problems
on
this
island.
We
have
been
told
that
the
district
analysis
is
being
performed.
Approximately
a
six-month
time
frame.
South
Carolina
law
states
that
a
moratorium
is
six
months
with
a
one-time
extension
of
up
to
three
more
months.
So
my
question
is:
why
can't
we
do
the
moratorium
now?
Z
Stop
the
developments
until
the
district
analysis
is
performed
in
the
updated
traffic
study
is
complete.
Why
would
the
town
continue
to
process
applications
for
developments
without
these
analysis
and
traffic
studies?
Let's
fix
the
existing
problems
now
before
we
create
new
ones.
I
implore
the
Town
Council
join
me
join
us
join
us
residents,
help
us
to
make
Hilton
Head
a
better
place.
Let's
stop
making
the
same
mistake
as
past
Generations
past
administrations.
Z
Your
very
own
mission
statement
says
zoning
is
to
protect
the
health,
safety,
appearance,
prosperity
and
general
welfare
of
the
community.
Zoning
helps
to
regulate
land
use,
promote
orderly
growth
and
protect
existing
Property
Owners
by
by
ensuring
a
convenient,
attractive
and
functional
Community.
I
challenge
you
to
show
all
of
Hilton
Head
that
these
are
not
just
mere
words.
It
is
an
incumbent
upon
you
to
protect
this
island
and
its
residents
join
us
and
create
a
better
future
for
Hilton
Head.
It
starts
with
the
moratorium.
Z
A
A
Q
Good
evening
my
name
is
James.
Sakancik
I
have
a
residence
in
the
Mitchellville
area
of
Hilton
Head
I'm
here
tonight
to
speak
on
a
personal
matter.
I'm
also
here
to
talk
later
on
the
beach
protection
act
on
a
personal
matter.
I
think
I
will
be
submitting.
This
I'd,
give
you
a
copy,
but
I
guess
that's
not
the
protocol.
Q
There
is
a
regulation
in
the
beach
regulations
that
allow
for
any
boat
that
remains
overnight
on
the
beach
shall
obtain
either
as
seasonal
or
annual
beach
permit
they
Define
boat
as
any
watercraft.
They
use
the
word.
Shell
I
had
a
permit
in
the
past.
I
had
one
last
year,
I
got
a
permit
this
year
for
reasons,
I
find
difficult
to
understand
that
permit
was
revoked
because
they
felt
my
boat
was
not
a
boat.
Q
There
are
some
confusing
words
in
the
personal
property
section
of
the
regulations.
It
clearly
says
that
unpermitted
boats
can't
be
left
overnight.
Well,
I
want
to
permit
my
boat.
It
defines
a
lot
of
personal
property,
beach
toys,
grills,
coolers,
kayaks,
General
items,
they're
trying
to
say
my
boat
is
a
kayak.
Unfortunately,
kayak
is
not
a
defined
term.
Q
In
fact,
if
you
go
to
the
Olympics
they'd
say
the
difference
between
a
canoe
and
a
kayak
is
the
type
of
paddle
used,
they
say:
robots
robots
are
either
a
single
or
a
double
or
they're
going
to
call
it
a
row:
boat
sweep
roll
or
skulling.
There
are
important
trade
terms
that
are
used,
that
we
should
respect,
but
we
should
also
respect
the
law.
The
Hilton
Head
regulation
is
very
clear
and
it
says
any
boat.
Q
The
South
Carolina
regulation
is
very
clear
when
they
talk
about
a
watercraft
as
a
vessel
and
be
in
a
boat
and
in
terms
of
personal
property.
I
make
reference
to
a
South,
Carolina
Revenue
ruling,
saying
that
all
boats,
small
or
big,
are
personal
property,
so
I
think
I'm
asking
for
this
to
be
reviewed.
I
think
I
I
have
a
certain
right
to
have
these
boats
and
later
I'll
talk
why
this
might
be
important
to
me
and
maybe
even
useful
to
the
community.
Thank
you.
Thank
you.
A
Thank
you,
Krista,
now
to
a
mayoral
appointment
to
the
southern
Lowcountry
regional
board.
I
was
going
to.
He
didn't
call
my
name
for
a
three-minute
comment.
You've
already
had
your
three
minutes.
Yes,
you
did
somebody.
No!
No!
You
did
not.
No,
no!
No!
You
did
not.

V
V
A
A
Dishonest
again,
we
have
asked
for
decorum
and
respect
and
you
are
not
providing
that
I'm
doing.
No,
you
were
not,
and.
V
A
Asking
for
respect,
I
gave
you
respect
earlier
with
your
three
minutes
and
you
went
a
little
bit
over,
so
you
can
please
sit
down
and.
V
V
V
So
I'm
gonna
make
my
three
minutes
speech
and
then
and
then
we
and
then
after
that
we'll
find
out
a
legal
opinion
find
out
who's
right
and
then
we'll.
If
that
can
be
prevented
from
happening
again,
then
we'll
do
it
under
the
law.
But
let's,
let's,
let's
go
with
the
process:
let's
go
with
the
process
and

everybody

got

No.

LMO
that
have
fallen
out,
Public,
Access
beach,
front
drainage,
Beach
management
authorities,
local
laws
and
ordinances,
erosion,
control
needs
goals,
implementation,
appendices
and
recommendation
and
questions.
Should
you
have
any
at
the
end?
Let
me
go
what
we're
asking
for
tonight
is
Town
Council
adoption
of
this
at
first
reading
and
to
bring
back
to
you
for
a
second
reading
at
your
next
Action
meeting
in
February
a
little
bit
of
background.
N
The
South
Carolina
department
of
environmental
control
and
office
of
coastal
resource
management
is
responsible
for
management
of
the
state's
beachfront
and,
as
part
of
that,
beachfront
act
there's
a
requirement
for
Beach
from
communities
to
develop
local
plans
that
are
then
integrated
into
the
overall
State
plans.
N
The
state
relies
on
these
local
plans
and
local
policies
regulations
the
procedures
related
to
beachfront
management
to
build
their
estate
plan
they're.
Also,
these
plans
are
also
an
important
resource
for
beachfront
emergency
response
and
damage
assessment
programs
that
are
needed,
we're
a
little
unique
and
we
have
our
own
funding
source
for
renourishment
and
we
don't
rely
on
a
lot
of
state
and
federal
money
for
those
renourishment
projects.
N
However,
we
have
taken
advantage
of
it
during
times
of
emergency
and
I'll
I'll
cover
that
in
a
second
as
well
as
some
some
smaller
scale
projects
that
we've
we've
gotten
grants
for
from
the
past.
So
this
puts
you
in
position
for
that
beach
front
management
plans
are
adopted
every
10
years,
they're
reviewed
in
in
the
five-year
interval,
and
that's
where
we're
at
this
was
adopted
in
August
of
2017
and
we
are
I'm
trying
to
finalize
the
five-year
review.
N
This
identifies
the
other
communities
which
are
required
to
do
the
local
beachfront
management
plans,
and
you
see
the
list
on
on
the
right.
There
there's
other
jurisdictions
along
the
Atlantic
coast,
but
not
all
of
them
have
beaches,
but
those
listed
on
the
right
are
those
that
are
required
to
have
those
18
communities
total
in
the
state.
And
then
these
local
plans
are
stitched
together
into
the
Statewide
plan.
N
Again
they're
reviewed
by
local
governments.
Every
five
Rewritten
submitted
every
10..
We
work
closely
with
DHEC
ocrm
to
evaluate,
as
we
are
preparing
updates,
to
make
sure
we're
following
their
guidance
and
meeting
their
requirements
when
we
submit
those
to
the
state
for
review
a
little
bit
of
History.
The
town
has
adopted
Beach
management
plans
as
far
back
as
1992,
so
92
95,
98,
2001,
2009
2017,
and
you
can
see
92
2002,
2012
and
2022
are
kind
of
that.
N
There's
been
significant
benefit
to
beachfront
management
and
in
our
renourishment
program,
since
we've
began
back
in
1990,
we've
added
13
and
a
half
million
cubic
yards
of
sand
over
what
was
there
initially
in
90,
and
we
actively
monitor,
manage
and
maintain
that
Resource
as
as
part
of
a
management
structure
and
strategy.
Over
time.
We
we
surveyed
the
beach
every
year
twice
in
the
spring
in
the
fall,
and
then
we
develop
profiles
and
information
related
to
high
water
position
and
volumetric
changes
in
Sand
and
Beach
volume
regularly.
N
The
Statewide
policy
is
to
retreat
from
the
ocean
and
they
establish
a
a
baseline
in
the
setback
roughly
every
10
years,
with
our
beach
renourishment
program.
Sometimes
the
Baseline
is
re-established
c
word
and
we've
taken
action
here
locally
to
prohibit
seaward
encroachment
toward
the
ocean
or
toward
the
high
water
mark
by
adoption
of
these
type
regulatory
measures,
Coastal
protection
area
transition,
overlay
that
are
codified
in
town
code
as
part
of
the
beach
management
plan.
We
also
inventor
and
assess
Public
Access.
N
We
meet
the
requirement
here
of
the
1400
spaces,
there's
some
additional
information
included
in
the
update
on
new
projects
and
programs
that
have
started
since
the
2017
adoption.
The
the
beach
shuttle
service
has
been
included
in
the
update,
also
identified
potential
improvements
at
some
Beach
Parks
that
we
have
in
development
through
the
CIP,
which
potentially
include
additional
parking.
We
haven't
represented
more
parking,
but
just
noting
in
the
plan
that
we
have
are
evaluating
those
and
then
also
the
town
intends
to
work
forward
parking
management
plan.
N
N
We've
also
always
heard
that
1400
space
threshold
is
important
to
maintain,
so
we
don't
jeopardize
any
any
grants
that
we've
got
in
the
past
a
couple
other
things
related
to
beachfront
management
we've
been
to
a
lot
of
coastal
communities
that
have
drainage,
Outlook,
outlines
or
drainage
onto
the
beach
and
if
you've
been
to
Myrtle,
Beach
and
some
others
and
which
allow
the
drainage
right
onto
the
beach,
it's
not
a
real,
slightly
condition.
We
don't
allow
those
here.
The
only
drainage
on
our
beaches
is
through
the
natural
Folly.
N
We
also
have
major
storm
water
pumps
that
pump
water
away
from
the
beach
to
help
with
that
management
system,
and
then,
as
I
mentioned,
we
have
identified
and
adopted
development
regulations,
additional
retention
and
retention
and
detention
for
some
water
runoff
to
help
protect
that
that
asset
and
then
land
seaward
of
the
setback
line
that
the
ocrm
establishes
based
on
the
setback
are
mostly
well
drained.
Right,
they're,
Sandy
soils
and
they're
vegetated.
N
We
take
pride
in
establishing
doing
areas
and
doing
protection
and
doing
fencing
and
and
trying
to
limit
encroachments
that
would
degradate
the
that
beach
environment
and
so
we've
taken
actions
in
our
code
in
our
practices
to
make
sure
that
that
is
part
of
our
management
plan.
N
An
idea
of
the
management
authorities
on
the
beach
we
have
D
hack
ocrm
to
the
state
which
governs
the
beachfront
management
act,
governs
the
state
and
federal,
permitting
agencies.
We
have
our
own
Management
Authority
on
the
beach
and
some
activities,
and
we,
as
I
mentioned
these
code,
changes
that
we've
put
back
in
2009
or
10
on
the
coastal
protection
transition.
Overlay
District
in
town
code.
N
It
also
in
the
plan,
and
also
inventories
those
local
laws
and
ordinances
that
we
have
on
the
books.
The
gentleman
that
was
up
here
speaking
before
the
the
beachfront
management
plan
doesn't
regulate
the
boat.
N
You
know
the
definition
of
boats
and
all
that,
but
it
does
inventory
those
Provisions
in
the
code
that
we
have
that
govern
activity
on
the
beach,
and
you
can
see
these
section
8.1
of
the
town
code
and
article
one
through
six,
that
talk
about
Doom
protection
boats
on
the
beach
Etc
and
then
section
8.5,
which
is
specific
to
our
sea
turtle
protection,
which
was
updated
in
2021.
As
councilman
Ames
remembers.
N
We
revised
the
beach
limits
since
the
last
update
to
include
from
fish
Hall
Creek
up
to
park
creek,
you
can
see
the
red
area
on
the
graphic
on
the
right
side
of
the
screen,
adding
that
section
of
beach
to
the
defined
Beach
within
the
town
code
and
so
I've
extended
that
and
included
it
in
the
in
the
Plan
update,
there's
a
lot
of
other
items
that
are
governed
in
the
speech
management
plan.
It's
really
is
a
comprehensive
evaluation
of
existing
conditions.
N
Protections
that
you
have
in
place,
but
primary
one
of
the
primary
purposes,
is
erosion,
control
and
management.
So
how
do
we
do
that?
We
re-nourish
our
beaches
regularly.
We
monitor
our
beaches.
We
stabilize
areas
on
the
beaches,
whether
it's
Dune,
fencing
or
Dune
protection.
We
limit
encroachment
on
the
beach.
We
limit
encroachment
seaward
on
the
beach
and
then
again,
I
mentioned
Doom
protection
is
very
important.
There
are
many
many
benefits
of
having
a
managed,
Beach
and
and
moving
forward
their
re-nourishment
program
and
the
and
the
practices
that
we've
implemented.
One
is
Recreation.
N
N
There's
environmental
habitat
benefits
from
having
this
managed,
Beach
and
re-nourishment,
and
then,
as
as
I
mentioned
before,
if
we
are
hit
with
a
have
an
emergency
condition
on
the
beach,
we
have
the
ability
to
then
request
assistance
to
repair
those
damage
on
the
managed
beach.
By
having
this
in
place
a
few
before
and
after
pictures,
you
can
see
the
picture
on
the
top
left
that
was
before
1990
before
the
very
first
renourishment.
N
It's
it's
roughly
the
same
location
on
the
beach
and
every
one
of
these
pictures.
You
can
see
the
structure
changed
here
in
2015,
but
that's
the
same
section
of
each,
so
you
can
see
the
expansion
of
the
beach,
the
establishment
of
additional
primary
secondary,
maybe
even
tertiary
Dunes,
on
the
system
and
areas
that
we've
seen
positive
impact
from
this
effort
going
forward.
Renourishment
is
our
primary
tool
for
protection.
N
But
that's
the
the
next
major
project
schedule
and
you
can
see
the
smaller
projects
where
we've
had
an
emergency
or
small
issue,
smaller
issue,
they're
all
big
issues,
but
smaller
issue
than
the
major
renourishment
that
we've
been
able
to
to
enact
and
by
having
that
beach
management
plan.
It's
positioned
us
well
to
be
responsive,
to
identify
and
obtain
additional
funding
sources.
If,
if
so
directed
and
been
able
to
continue
this
project
going
forward,
there's
many
appendices
that
are
also
included
in
the
beach
management
plan.
N
A
lot
of
them
are
technical
in
nature,
but
they
include
overlays
for
Beach
management,
the
transition
area,
the
critical
protection
area
inventory
of
all
beachfront
structures,
so
anything
that
is
along
the
beach
or
encroaches
into
that
Baseline
and
setback.
The
inventory
of
public
access
points,
parking
prior
studies,
list
of
Prior
studies,
local
laws
and
ordinance,
which
I
mentioned,
are
included
by
reference
and
outlined
in
the
appendency,
and
then
the
beach
management
agencies
and
jurisdictions
that
have
some
level
of
control
or
span
of
control
on
on
the
beach
and
beach
activities.
N
Foreign,
the
beach
management
plan,
identifies
needs
goals
and
implementation
strategies
again.
The
beach
man,
beachfront
management
act,
outlines
the
Statewide
policy
right
to
preserve,
protect,
restore
and
enhance
Beach
and
dune
systems.
Our
beach,
our
beach
management
plan,
does
exactly
exactly
that.
It
meets
those
goals.
There
are
some
specific
items,
I
identified
here,
I
won't
read
through
all
of
them,
but
for
Beach
preservation,
enhancing
public
beach
access.
N
We
include
that
in
our
CIP
programming,
the
beach
renourishment
and
other
beach
access
and
a
beach
access
point
improvements,
parking
Etc,
as
we
continue
to
look
at
the
growth
framework
and
and
District
planning
and
Alibi
master
plan.
You
know
number
two
here
to
hold
densities
along
the
beachfront.
Their
current
levels
are
below
I.
Think
it's
important
to
make
sure
that
we
have
that
in
our
thinking
to
move
these
things
forward,
continue
to
mend
and
enforce
the
LMO
to
provide
additional
protection,
and
that's
why
those
transition
areas
were
very
important
right.
N
The
beach
was,
the
state
was
going
to
move
the
Baseline,
which
would
allow
development
for
the
benefit
of
to
to
encroach
further
seaward
at
the
benefit
of
the
private
individual
at
the
and
at
the
Peril
of
the
public
benefit.
N
So
we
managed
to
to
add
some
additional
controls
there
and
I
won't
read
these
all,
but
we
did
coordinate
with
ocrm
to
review
and
evaluate
our
draft
plan
and
they're
in
support
of
what
has
been
drafted,
and
we
have
updated
it
to
make
sure
that
all
of
those
technical
elements
reflect
the
current
condition
and
are
ready
to
kind
of
move.
This
thing
we've
moved
it
forward
through
committee
and
now
here
before,
Council
foreign
again,
some
general
considerations
going
forward
continue
to
improve
Public
Access
and
we
talked
about
expanded.
N
The
consideration
of
parking
management
I'm
going
to
use
the
expansion,
but
expansion
or
parking
management
manage
erosion
through
the
renourishment
and
protect
the
the
beach
front
and
and
the
the
island
in
general,
from
natural
disasters,
climate
adaptation
and
sea
level
rise.
We
know
that
we
have
outlined
a
draft
RFP
to
go
out
and
a
SWAT
of
resiliency
is
on
the
Strategic
plan
for
the
town
and
we
plan
to
move
that
forward
and
integrate
the
beach
renourishment
as
part
of
that
as
part
of
that
protection,
and
how
to
maintain
resiliency
or
improve
resiliency
from
Storm
events.
N
I'm
happy
to
answer
any
questions
that
I
can
again
there's
an
awful
lot
of
information
in
the
Beach
Comprehensive
Beach
management
plan,
we're
at
our
five-year
review
period
and
our
requesting
Council
that
Council
adopt
this
and
for
us
to
be
able
to
submit
to
the
state
to
fold
another
Statewide
plan.
Okay,.
A
I've
got
one
quick
question
by
adopting
The
Five-Year
Plan
and
then
doing
a
SWOT
analysis.
Can
the
Plan
be
updated
based
on
the
findings
of
that
SWAT?
Yes,.
N
A
N
Do
want
to
if
I
can
point
out
one
more
thing:
the
beach
adoption,
the
beach
management
plan
doesn't
impact
the
permit
for
the
beach
renourishment
project.
I
want
to
make
sure
I
point
that
out
again,
because
we
have
our
our
own
dedicated
funding
source.
If
we
didn't,
if
we
were
asking
for
State
funds,
I
think,
then
that
would
trigger
the
need
to
make
sure
that
it's
updated
and
in
line
so
I
want
to
point
that
out.
N
Well,
in
in
general,
it's
a
five-year
window.
We
began
the
update
and
began
and
began
moving
it
through
the
review
process
at
the
about
the
five-year
time
frame
with
Planning
Commission
was
adopted
in
August
of
17.
started.
Moving
through
that
review
process.
I
would
like
to
try
to
get
it
adopted
in
the
next
few,
two
or
three
months,
if
possible,
but
there's
no
hard
and
fast
shot
clock
that
says
you
have
to
adopt
it
today
or
next
week.
K
Thank
you
Sean,
so
as
I
recall,
when
this
did
come
through
community
service
and
Public
Safety
before
the
new
year.
One
of
my
concerns
was
that
there
there
is
a
page
there
where
there's
an
increase
in
parking
shall
be
incorporated
in
both
chaplain
and
Islanders,
and
then
I
see
it
again.
The
I
think
was
next
to
the
last
page,
the
issue
with
increased
parking.
K
If
I
recall
those
discussions,
we
already
exceed
the
number
of
required
parking
that
the
state
has
for
us,
and
the
word
shall
bothers
me
tremendously
because
it
ties
our
hands.
One
of
the
conversations
that
we
had
was
by
putting
out
there
that
we
ABS
that
we
will
increase
parking.
K
Are
we
then
saying
potentially
to
the
state
that
our
our
maximum
that
we
thought
we
were
at
is
now
able
to
be
expanded
and
that
they
insist
that
we
start
expanding
our
our
beach
parking
and
I
say
that,
because
there's
a
number
of
these
items
in
here
that
we
can't
be
sensitive
to
our
environment
and
to
our
surroundings
and
to
our
beaches
and
to
our
residents
Comfort.
K
If
we
continually
are
expanding
the
opportunity
for
Beach
traffic
and
parking
and
so
I'm
uncomfortable
with
the
word,
shall
first
of
all
at
Chaplin
and
Islanders
I'm,
also
uncomfortable
with
the
idea
that
we
are
putting
forth
that
we
are
looking
for
opportunities
to
expand
past,
where
we
are
now
which
we've
accepted
as
what
was
our
maximum
ability
to
park
on
the
island
and
I'm.
Not
sure
of
those
who
are
here
previously
recall
that
conversation
but
I
can't
vote
Yes.
While
those
items
are
in
here.
C
Mayor
yes,
sir,
first
of
all
I'll
let
the
public
and
the
Town
Council
know
that
this
plan
is
161
pages
long
I
read
it
over
this
weekend.
I
also
listened
to
the
community
services
and
Public
Safety
Committee
meeting
on
this
plan
over
the
weekend.
That
was
about
90
minutes
worth.
C
As
a
result,
I
have
over
15
questions
and
I
have
almost
10
amendments
to
request
so
I'm,
mindful
of
the
time
and
I,
think
that
it
would
be
helpful
because
the
town
doesn't
currently
have
a
c-level
adaptation
plan.
We're
moving
forward
with
our
resiliency
SWOT
analysis
and
I.
Thank
the
town
manager
and
his
staff
are
including
that
in
the
Strat
plan
and
moving
forward
with
that,
but
I
would
respectfully
request
that
we
remand
this
to
the
public
planning
committee
for
us
to
take
a
look
at
some
of
the
impacts
included
in
this
plan.
C
At
the
same
time,
I
say
that
I'm,
I'm,
very
Mindful
and
as
I
understand
renourishment,
is
to
occur
in
2025
that
if
we
do
remand
this
and
spend
a
little
more
time
to
consider
it,
it
will
not
hold
up
that
permitting
process.
Did
I
understand
that
correctly.
That's
correct,
okay
and
because,
but
let
me
say
one
other
thing
before
I
say
the
Cause
part
I
was
very
much
impressed
with
a
presentation
before
the
community
services
and
Public
Safety
Committee
by
the
staff
and
by
our
Consulting
engineer,
Olson
and
I.
C
Remember
the
representative
from
Olson
engineering
being
asked
about
how
we
stacked
up,
and
he
was
very
complimentary
of
what
we've
done.
If
you
look
at
those
photographs,
I've
walked
along
North,
Forest
Beach,
where
those
photographs
were
taken
and
it's
very
impressive.
What
we've
been
able
to
do
with
not
just
managing
our
beaches
but
preserving
them
and
protecting
them
is
impressive,
so
I
don't
want
to
say
that
what
my
suggestions
are
not
directed
towards
us
not
having
a
good
program.
C
What
I'm
concerned
about
is
what
are
we
going
to
do
about
Island
resiliency
about
storm
water?
What
are
we
going
to
do
about
the
design
review
boards
questions
about
the
mass
and
scale
of
our
buildings
and
and
language
in
here,
which
encourages
promoting
our
beaches,
is
of
concern
and
language
in
here
which
encourages
densities
at
the
same
level
that
we
have
now
is
is
bothersome
to
me.
F
Yeah
I'm
I'm,
going
to
piggyback
a
little
bit
on
what
Ms
Becker
said,
but
in
a
slightly
different
way,
Beach
management
plan.
F
In
there
it
says
the
town's
intent
is
to
do
something
about
the
dunes
deal
with
development
deal
with
tourism,
animal
habitat
vegetative
habitat
and
a
recreational
Beach
during
high
tide.
Those
were
some
of
the
things
that
it
spoke
to
I.
F
Think
what's
missing,
that
is
critical
to
all
of
those
is
how
many
people
are
on
the
beach,
so
I
I
think
we
just
just
as
development
is
called
out
here
as
having
the
potential
negative
impact
on
the
beach
I,
believe
population
overpopulation
has
the
same
natural
environment,
the
dunes,
whatever
so
I
I
think
that
we
need
to
be
thinking
about
whether
this
is
a
complete
and
finished
product
or
whether
we
should
be
adding
something
that
addresses
an
attitude
towards
what
we
consider
to
be
a
Hilton
Head
Beach
experience
that
we
want
to
retain
now.
F
I
was
here
a
long
time
ago,
and
there
was
nobody
on
the
beach
I
like
that
experience.
But
some
other
people
join
me
now
and
there
are
a
lot
of
people
out
there.
The
question
is:
are
we
going
to
predict
what
we
have
now
and
do
we
have
policies
in
place
to
do
it
and
so
I'm
in
agreement
that
that
this
needs
to
be
thought
about
a
little
bit
more
and
I'm
happy
to
take
it
in
public
planning?
If
it's
the
wishes
that.
A
Questioned?
How,
since
we're
going
to
be
addressing
the
LMO-
and
that
is
a
it's
it's
within
this
document-
those
changes
would
then
apply
back
to
this
document.
They
wouldn't
the
changes,
would
supersede
I.
Think
it's
in
the
plan
correct.
N
D
K
Mayor
just
when
this
did
come
out
of
community
service
and
Public
Safety
Committee,
and
so
that's
where
I
believe
it
should
be
remanded
too
and
I
welcome
all
of
our
council
members
to
participate
in
those
discussions.
But
that's
where
it
came
out
of
and
I
think
that's
where
it
ought
to
be
sent
back
to.
Thank
you.
V
I
didn't
hear
the
handicap
access
mentioned.
I
might
have
missed
that.
I
know
that
that
was
a
big
issue
for
Tamara
and
in
order
to
fund
that
and
to
fund
all
the
renourishment
and
not
just
the
beach,
but,
let's
just
say,
bike
paths
and
and
parks
and
more
land
to
support
Senator
Davis's
one
percent
tax
on
all
of
us
locals
I
I
I'm
really
would
recommend
that
you
all
consider
defunding
the
atax
to
a
lot
of
the
recipients
that
do
not
qualify
under
a
tax
law.
V
I
think
you
you've
got
to
come
to
grips
with
that
and
we
really
need
to
defund
the
chamber
totally.
That
needs
to
get
back
to
being
just
a
business
League
a
chamber
for
its
local
members.
We
need
to
get
them
out
of
this
business
period,
it's
against
the
law
and
that
money
can
I
think
can
be
used.
We
don't
need
the
chamber
anymore.
A
chamber
has
been
replaced
by
technology,
Facebook,
social
media,
local
search.
If,
if
you
don't
understand
the
Internet,
it's
going
to
be
very
hard
hard
to
to
lead
this.
V
You
got
to
understand
technology.
We
don't
need
Bill,
Miles.
Five
hundred
thousand
dollar
salary,
two
million
dollar
house
in
Indigo,
run
funded
with
our
tax
monies.
We
need
to
get
rid
of
this
chamber,
make
them
go
back
running
a
normal
chamber
that
we
can
all
be
proud
of
for
our
community
and
let's
use
these
millions
of
Aid
tax
monies
for
the
for
the
purpose
that
they're
intended
for
for
the
good
of
not
just
the
tourists
but
the
locals
alike.
Thank
you.
C
Mayor
if
I
could
come
back
to
the
request
referral
the
reason
I
suggested
public
planning
is
because
I
saw
most
of
the
changes.
That
I
was
looking
at
to
be
in
the
planning,
not
to
say
that
shouldn't
go
back
to
community
services
and
Public
Safety.
But
that's
why
I
was
recommending
public
plannings.
Q
Q
Good
evening,
for
the
record,
my
name
is
James.
Sakancik
I
would
like
to
comment
on
this
plan,
which
I
have
reviewed
and
I
did
look
up
history
and
many
times
it
talks
about
the
history
of
the
area.
Well,
I'm
an
engineer:
I'm
a
hydrologist
I'm,
a
geologist
I've
done
enough
of
that.
So
I've
been
looking
to
get
more
into
my
hobby
of
history
and
there's
a
lot
of
history
there.
Certainly
the
Gullah
people
have
done
an
excellent
time,
taking
care
of
that,
but
maybe
First
Nation
hasn't
been
looked
at
that
much
well.
Q
If
somebody
lived
where
I
live
at
the
end
of
Beach
City
Road
and
he
had
to
go
out
there
in
that
local
water
within
walking
distance
and
feed
his
family,
how
could
he
do
it?
Well,
one
way
to
try
to
do
that.
The
records
are
terrible,
I
mean
here,
is
you
know
a
college
level
book
and
they're
showing
the
one
drawing
they
had
from
North
Carolina,
where
they
had
showing
the
canoes
and
the
the
fire
and
and
the
boats?
Well,
guess
what?
If
you
walk
out
there
at
that
location
off
of
Hilton.
Q
V
Q
You're
going
to
get
a
rogue
wave
you're
going
to
tip
over
that's
not
what
they
were
using
so
I've
been
trying
to.
You
know,
play
the
game,
try
to
replicate
how
it
may
have
been
done
and
I've
kind
of
come
up
with
something
that
has
to
be
self-failing.
What
is
a
self-bailing
type
thing?
It's
a
raft
and
I've.
Actually,
you
know
purchase
special
order,
a
nice
short
one,
and
if
it's
basically,
they
call
it
self-bailing,
they
call
it
sit
on
top,
because
your
entire
body
is
above
the
water.
Q
Mark
Twain
will
look
at
this
and
say
it
calls
it's
a
raft
marketing
today
they
call
it
sit
on
top
kayak,
but
it's
that
type
of
thing
that
I'm
studying
and
you
know
how
do
you
fish
from
it?
How
do
you
walk
from
it?
How
do
you,
shell
from
it
can?
Can
you
pull
it
on
a
rope
when
your
water's
up
to
here
at
low
tide
and
get
shells
fabulous
things
and
it's
a
long-term
plant
I've
got
grandkids
they're
growing
older?
Q
What
a
perfect
little
thing
they
come
down
here
is
to
get
them
off
the
iPad,
get
them
out.
There
teach
them
age
appropriate,
eventually,
I
hope
to
maybe
they
can
make
their
own
raft
as
they
get
older,
and
it
sounds
perfect
for
like
a
high
school
project
term
letter,
but
that's
why
that
little
boat
issue
is
important
to
me.
I
need
those
tools
in
order
to
do
this
type
of
thing.
Thank
you.
A
Thank
you
any
other
public
comments.
Okay,
so
I've
got
a
quick
question.
Seeing
that
there
is
some
desire
to
move
this
back
to
one
of
the
two
committees.
Should
we
move
forward
with
the
vote,
as
has
already
been
the
motion's
been
made.
G
B
B
Motion
being
that
to
approve
the
first
reading
right,
if
you're
remaining
that
to
or
to
a
committee,
then
that
motion
that
Mrs,
Bryson
or
Miss
Bryson
made
would
need
a
second.
She
did
not
receive
a
second.
C
B
Sir
Mr
Brown.
Q
B
K
K
T
B
Kind
of
threw
me
for
a
loop.
Are
you
amending
the
Motions.
K
I
would
like
to
amend
the
motion
please
to
leave
to
do
everything
that
councilwoman
Bryson
mentioned
other
than
specifically
named
the
public
planning
committee
and
leave
that
piece
open
for
discussion.
A
J
J
A
A
Going
to
say
yes,
and
also
it
came
through
the
public
planning
committee
and
through
the
public,
Planning
Commission,
so
yes,
support.
I
A
L
Great
presentation,
no
presentation
on
this
item
just
to
highlight
the
top
level
points
on
this.
Existing
town
code
requires
that
Town
Council
meet
on
the
first
and
third
Tuesdays
of
every
month
at
4
pm,
based
upon
the
count,
the
schedule
that
was
adopted
by
this
Council.
It
doesn't
line
up
with
that
language,
so
we're
proposing
to
amend
the
code
language
to
provide
greater
flexibility
to
council
so
long
as
we're
satisfying
the
state
requirement
to
meet
monthly.
You
would
otherwise
meet
based
upon
the
schedule
that's
approved
by
Council
as
a
body.
Okay,.
A
A
V
Is
what
hearing
impaired
causes
I'm
sorry.
A
Okay,
so
hearing
no
more
discussion
Crystal.
Can
you
call
the
roll
please
Mr.
B
A
A
M
Thank
you,
Mr
Mayor.
What
you
have
before
you
for
your
consideration
is
several
different
pieces
to
this.
There's
an
recommendation
for
the
parking
committee
or
the
parking
consultant,
made
a
recommendation,
and
so
there's
funds
there
for
that
869
thousand
dollars.
We
now
have
a
public
safety
director
and
his
now
that
he's
here
he's
able
to
say
these
are
the
tools
that
he
needs
to
get
started,
and
so
there's
eighty
four
thousand
dollars
there.
There
is
a
request
for
a
housing
program
manager
and
that
to
do
that
important
work.
Fifty
thousand
six
twenty
five.
M
Those
are-
and
why
are
we
speaking
of
this-
is
mostly
because
of
the
long
lead
time
and
it
takes
extra
time
to
order
trying
to
get
these
in
place
as
soon
as
we
can
so
that
we
can
be
as
prepared
as
we
can
for
Hurricane
Readiness
and
to
accept
the
five
million
dollar
State
grant
for
our
Community
Development
Corporation.
That's
the
state
funds
and
then
also
to
use
the
county
arpa
funds
for
the
CDC
operations,
and
so
there's
there's
kind
of
a
long
list
here,
but
certainly
would
welcome
any
kind
of
comments
or
questions.
K
A
K
So
help
me
understand,
so
we
are
using
funds
from
the
short-term
rental
permit
fees
to
help
offset.
The
second
bullet
point.
M
For
the
yes,
and
so
there's
there's
two
components
to
that.
But
yes,
we
are
there's.
What
we're
trying
to
capture
is
the
business
that
is
required
of
short-term
rentals
and
offset
our
costs.
M
M
M
And
it's
getting
late,
sorry
and
the
process
is
the
application.
You
get
a
short-term
rental
application
a
permit
and
then
you
get
your
business
license,
and
so
the
business
licenses
renewals
are
due
by
the
end
of
April,
and
so
our
expectation
is
is
it
will
have
much
more
complete
numbers
on
our
short-term
rentals
as
we
get
closer
to
that
April
30th.
K
K
If
anyone
wants
to
help
me
with
that
and
then
the
second
one
is,
it
certainly
was
never
my
intention
that
short-term
rental
permit
fees
would
be
used
as
a
revenue
source
to
fund
other
areas
of
our
town
government
and
that,
in
fact,
the
focus
for
me
was
solely
on
making
sure
that
we
had
permits
in
place.
That
would
help
to
bring
a
balance
between
the
short-term
rental
industry
and
our
residents
and
not
use
it
as
a
trough
of
funds
and
so
I'm
a
little
bit
uncomfortable
with
that.
But.
M
I
would
just
like
to
say
that
the
purpose
of
the
permit
was
to
just
help,
offset
the
attention
and
the
resources
needed
from
the
from
the
town
and
so
I
I
think
it.
Certainly
we
can
have
a
good
discussion
about
you
know
what
what's
the
list
and
what
should
the
list
be
and
we'll
certainly
do
that
in
the
budget
process.
But
but
this
step
will
enable
it.
We
didn't
think
it
was
too
far
of
a
stretch
for
some
small
steps
in
order
to
say
yes,
we
know
that
that
is
impacting
Town
operations,
foreign.
M
Supplement
and
certainly
there's
a
couple
other
options
for
a
supplement,
including
our
Hospitality
tax
or
including,
if
need
be,
but
we
like
to
always
protect
our
general
fund,
and
so
that
would
be
our
more
Last
Resort
and
so
I'm
I'm
comfortable
I'm,
comfortable
with
where
we
are
at
1700
times,
250
dollars
it.
It's
already
covered.
AA
M
Yes
and
the
parking
consultant
has
recommended
these
changes,
and
so
there's
an
operational
component
and
there's
also
a
capital
component,
and
so
this
is
responding
to
the
town's
parking
consultant.
They
wanted
to
get
some
of
these
improvements
in
place
before
the
busiest
of
the
tourist
season,
and
so
this
will
help
us
to
get
there
and
the
policies
that
go
with
those
parking
will
be
considered
a
future
time.
We're
thinking,
maybe
March
and
so
I
I
think
that
will
be
a
really
informative
and
helpful
discussion
for
Council.
Then.
A
I
I'm
very
pleased
to
see
the
inclusion
of
the
drainage
problems
on
the
south
end
of
the
island
that
are
there.
My
understanding
is
that
there
were
pump
Replacements
just
a
short
time
ago.
With
used
pumps,
the
pumps
have
failed.
The
South
part
of
the
island
is
the
lowest
part
of
the
island.
We
hope
you
hurry
up
and
get
them
soon
before
we
have
another
flood.
A
D
M
That's
part
of
what
the
budget
amendment
will
allow
us
to
execute
a
contract
with
the
provider,
and
so
the
parking
consultant
did.
The
background
study
recommended
a
number
of
physical
improvements
as
well
as
operational
improvements,
and
we
had
some
money
in
the
CIP
just
to
get
it
started,
but
this
would
allow
the
town
to
go
forward
with
a
contract
for
parking
services.
D
O
I'm
in
support
of
amending
the
budget,
I
do
have
just
just
a
couple
of
questions
and
the
first
one
is
not
necessarily
I'm
wanting
to
change
anything
tonight
on
the
amendment
but
I'm
just
planting
a
seed
here.
I
know
that
code
enforcement
is
looking
for
cameras
to
help
with
Beach
management.
I
just
offer
that,
as
we
start
to
get
into
our
budget
deliberations,
that
we
consider
cameras
outside
of
the
beach
areas,
also,
okay,
that
technology
is
definitely
something
that
can
help
us
along
the
way
when
it
comes
to
crime
and
safety.
O
The
the
capital
expense
speaks
to
technology
for
155
space
sensors,
but
our
inventory
of
total
parking
spaces
is
over
1600,
so
I'm,
not
quite
clear
as
to
where
we're
going
with
charging
for
parking
with
technology
charging
for
parking
at
particular
sites.
Yes,
sir.
L
So
I
think
I'm
just
going
to
take
a
quick
step
back,
because
this
has
been
a
very
methodical
and
incremental
process.
So
first
we
worked
on
selecting
a
preferred
vendor.
Then
we
worked
on
developing
a
proposed
scope
of
services.
Now
we're
at
the
point
where
we're
already
going
to
adopt
a
contract,
that's
in
line
with
those
Services.
What
that's
referring
to
is
specifically
with
Islanders
beach
park
and
then
a
very
small
portion
of
Dreesen,
where
we
have
reserved
spaces
for
Island
residents.
L
Those
will
be
positioned
to
capture
traffic
coming
in
and
coming
out
of
those
lots
so
that
in
a
hopefully
real-time
basis,
we
can
communicate
with
the
public
what
availability
or
lack
thereof
there
is
with
each
of
the
parks
so
that
that
cumulative
figure
consists
of
a
significant
amount
of
technology,
which
is
cameras,
the
parking,
sensors,
physical
gate,
arms
among
a
number
of
things.
Okay,.
O
L
It
and
so
we're
not
bringing
forward
anything
that
talks
about
Revenue
at
this
point
we're
just
bringing
forward
a
contract.
That's
in
line
with
the
scope
of
services
that
would
approved
by
Council
what
Mr
Troyer
referred
to
as
the
next
step
in
the
process
will
then
be
to
come
with
four,
with
policy
considerations
for
discussion
by
Council.
O
Got
it
I'm
going
to
State
my
concern
out
loud
again?
O
We
are
still
not
certain
as
to
if
this
is
going
to
be
a
revenue
stream
for
the
town
or
not,
it
could
possibly
be
a
deficit
going
in
this
direction
and,
of
course,
in
order
to
deal
with
that
deficit,
we
will
then
have
to
make
a
decision
on
how
much
to
charge
where
to
charge
and
that
sort
of
thing
so
I
I
still
have
I
understand
that
we
want
to
get
something
in
place
before
the
height
of
the
season.
O
G
Thank
you
if
I
could
jump
in
yeah
go
ahead,
Mark.
Thank
you.
Mayor
yeah,
don't
go
too
far.
Josh
mayor
and
Council
yeah.
We
are
racing
against
the
clock
for
tourist
season
or
whatever
we
call
it.
I
feel
like
that's
about
60
days
away
and
getting
into
the
peak
we
have
a
lot
of
decisions
to
make
is,
is
Coligny.
Are
we
charging
at
caligny
burst
recent
verse,
Islanders
and
and
more
importantly,
what
are
those
rules?
Not
just
hours
of
operation
at
the
park?
G
Does
Coligny
stay
open
till
11
and
we
close
Islanders
at
nine.
So
there
is
a
lot
of
that
work
to
do
and
when
Josh
refers
to
policy,
it's
rules
and
its
cost
right.
So
it's
it's
per
car
per
vehicle
per
hour.
We
need
to
make
some
decisions.
We
are
trying
to
bring
this
forward
because
we
know
it
takes
time
to
mobilize
and
install
the
equipment.
But
while
that's
going
on,
we
fully
intend
to
bring
this
back
to
appropriate
committee.
To
talk
about
that
policy.
G
There
is
a
lot
of
work
to
do
and
I'm
I'm
nervous
about
going
too
fast
and
getting
the
rules
wrong,
but
I've,
just
from
my
own
perspective,
I
haven't
looked
at
this
as
a
revenue
stream
as
much
as
a
beach
parking
Management
program.
So
I
want
to
reset
those
expectations.
As
we
start
talking
about
policy
and
price.
K
Mayor
can
I
just
follow
up
on
my
concerns
about
the
short-term
rental,
permit
fees,
so
having
expressed
what
I
already
did
with
regard
to
my
my
belief
on
how
those
funds
were
being
set
aside,
do
we
have
so
there's
an
entire
system
with
short-term
rentals
right
that
we
have
set
up?
We
have
the
monitoring.
We
have
extra
code.
People
we
have.
All
of
that
is
all
that
when
it's
all
paid
for
in
addition
to
this
funded.
V
I'd
like
to
apologize
for
our
last
run
in
there,
but
I
do
think
it's
sometimes
it's
hard
to
get
out
a
professional
presentation
to
opposing
view
in
three
minutes.
One
other
thing
before
the
clock
starts.
V
If
you
don't
mind,
I'd
like
to
ask
because
I
am
hearing
impaired
and
I
know,
there's
other
people
in
this
room
that
are
also
hearing
impaired
and
it's
hard
for
me
to
even
hear
with
my
hearing
aids
in
so
I'm
going
to
ask
if
you
would
to
consider
getting
a
hearing
assisted
headphones
headsets
like
they
do
in
the
Beaver
County
court
system.
I.
W
V
I'll
come
over
and
get
it
after
I'm
finished
here.
Thank
you
very
much.
I
appreciate
that.
Okay,
great
okay,
Town
budgets
and
audits,
I
hate
to
say,
they're,
a
fraud,
no
accounting
on
millions
of
overcharge
legal
fees
by
the
dishonest
Town
lawyers
or
millions
of
a
tax
funds
handed
to
the
chamber.
Plus
millions
of
hospitality
tax
usage
has
disappeared.
Green
Finney
auditor
was
hired
by
violators
Orlando
Gruber
both
caught
committing
illegal
acts
with
CP
CPA
Troyer
in
tow.
They
called
us
a
positive,
independent
audit.
This
could
not
be
further
from
the
truth.
V
This
is
not
an
external,
independent,
Financial
audit.
It's
an
internal
audit
hired
by
the
town,
insiders
and
paid
by
Town
tax
funds
to
hide
and
cheat
taxpayers.
The
audit
only
shows
what
insiders
want
us
to
see.
Only
an
independent
external
forensic
audit
shows
the
real
numbers
on
how
and
where
funds
were
illegally
used
and
wasted.
People
are
often
confused
about
the
difference
between
a
financial
statement
audit
prepared
by
insiders
and
the
detailed
external
audit.
The
green
Infinity
audit
will
not
analyze
every
transaction
or
look
for
fraud,
specifically
I
call
grain
Finney
and
they
agreed.
V
My
assessment
was
correct.
A
forensic
audit,
on
the
other
hand,
is
conducted
by
forensic
audit
expert
specifically
designed
to
uncover
fraud,
waste,
illegal
criminal
use
and
issue
of
tax
funds,
which
we
have
already
caught
these
10
employees,
Gruber,
Orlando
and
Coltrane.
Doing
Mr
Orlando.
Do
you
and
Troyer,
and
the
lawyers
agree
to
a
forensic
audit
today,
Mr
Orlando?
If
not,
why
not?
If
you
have
nothing
to
hide
fact,
is
the
Town.
Council
has
never
seen
the
accounting
to
identify
illegal
tax
use.
V
Let
me
let
me
help
you
with
a
statistic:
never
in
the
history
of
the
entire
United
States
of
America
has
a
forensic
ought
to
have
been
conducted
on
a
town
government,
a
chamber,
a
school
district
where
wrongdoing,
waste
and
fraud
was
not
discovered
and
prison.
The
result
most
of
the
time
the
AG
and
the
FBI
needs
to
act
on
this
town
fraud.
V
Now
we
end
up
with
a
part-time
mayor
who
has
stated:
we
don't
need
chamber
transparency,
past
Lennox
scheme
to
hide
tax
funding
for
Bill
Miles,
including
including
help
from
lawyers
finger
and
Coltrane
who
drafted
the
fraudulent
DMO
chamber
contract
now,
Perry
and
brown
will
do
the
same.
Lawyers
are
also
allowing
the
chamber
to
use
tax
funds
for
private
purposes
and
profit.
V
This
is
also
illegal
under
South
Carolina,
constitutional
state
law
and
a
buddy
of
mine
won
that
that
case
at
the
Supreme
Court
level
and
the
reason
the
town
is
being
sued
recently,
because
they
issued
two
million
dollars
of
tax
funds
to
C
ponds
for
the
dredging
of
Harbortown.
You
cannot
use
tax
monies.
It
has
a
purpose
that
you
can't
use
it
for
private
purpose.
It's
against
the
law
and
I
want
the
two
million
dollars
paid
back
to
taxpayers
and
I
want
to
stop
Bill
Miles
using
our
tax
money
to
profit
his
pocket.
O
One
more
question:
I'm,
sorry,
yes,
sir
Miss
Troy,
can
you
the
proposed
operating
expense
for
the
beach
parking
management
366k.
The
original
proposal
was
there
a
difference
in
that
number
in
this
number.
M
Probably
it
should
be
it's
in
your
package,
the
amounts
this
is
the
most
recent
one,
so
I
I
think
it's
been
through
several
different
iterations
and-
and
this
is
the
most
recent
one-
is
that
your
question
no.
O
D
B
A
L
I'm
going
to
pull
up
a
picture
here,
so
we
can
just
briefly
chat
about
what
it
is
that
we're
looking
at
the
town
purchased
a
piece
of
property
a
number
of
years
ago.
It's
the
site
for
the
rowing
and
Sailing
Center
at
the
time
that
the
property
was
purchased.
We
believe
there
was
an
existing
encroachment
into
the
town's
property
that
was
failed
to
be
identified
on
the
surveys
that
we
obtained
at
the
time
we
purchased
the
property.
L
The
location
of
the
driveway
serves
the
adjacent
residents
and
given
the
location
of
the
structure
and
how
it's
oriented.
It
really
is
the
only
way
that
the
adjoining
property
owner
can
access
the
driveway
and
their
garage
on
the
house.
So,
based
upon
the
fact
that
the
encroachment
existed
at
the
time
that
the
town
acquired,
the
property
staff
is
recommending.
The
council
adopt
an
ordinance,
transferring
I
believe
it's
825
square
feet
of
that
town,
owned
parcel
to
the
adjoining
property
owner
to
resolve
the
conflict
and
allow
for
the
continued
use
and
access
of
their
garage.
D
K
Just
a
concern
that
we
are
setting
a
precedent
this
and
I
want
to.
That
is
a
concern.
There
are
other
situations
I'm
certain
across
this
island
that
will
pop
their
heads
up
and
I'm
uncomfortable
with
that
I
know
in
the
past,
where
situations
of
a
land
needed
to
be
added
to
a
property,
there's
been
a
purchase.
Well,
it
was
a
reasonable
and
purchase
it.
K
It
was
set
forth
in
in
that
type
of
way
and
so
I'm
uncomfortable
with
what
we're
doing
here,
we'll
set
a
presidents
for
the
future
and
us
being
in
the
same
situation
and
I
I
understand
our
documents
aren't
complete.
P
AB
Believe
that
the
town
ought
to
give
away
any
property
at
any
time,
I
agree
with
Miss,
Becker,
I
think
a
dollar
who
has
set
some
sort
of
a
monetary
price
for
this
reasonably.
The
second
thing
is
I
want
to
be
very
careful
of
what
has
is
now
in
the
process
on
Jonesville
Road,
where
someone
accumulates
a
little
additional
property
to
get
around
the
LMO,
which
gives
them
a
density
of
over
five
acres
and
increases
the
density
of
usage
to
twice
that
amount.
B
A
A
M
Thank
you,
Mr
Mayor
I
had
to
ask
Krista
to
put
the
spreadsheet
of
the
recommendation
up
of
the
Accommodations
Tax
committee
and
I
thought
it
might
be
hopeful
that
the
chairman
of
the
Accommodations
Tax
committee,
Mr
Fluker,
could
give
you
a
very
brief
report
of
their
work
and
their
recommendation.
I
thought
that
would
be
helpful.
Okay,.
AC
Okay,
we
had
34
applicants
this
year
for
the
Accommodations
Tax
of
those
34.
I.
Consider
that
32
of
them
received
full
funding
from
their
requests.
There
were
five
that
were
limited
in
of
their
request
because
of
Turk
accommodations
and
that's
from
the
tourism
expenditure.
Review
Committee
those
standards
that
they've
put
out
in
the
town
staff
recommended.
AC
So
all
of
these
organizations
fit
the
category
under
the
statute
for
non-profit
organizations
meant
to
enhance.
AC
Or
drive
tourism
and
that's
the
main
goal
of
the
committee
is
one
of
the
first
decisions
is
what
basically
heads
and
beds
and
and
feet
on
the
ground
and
32
of
those
of
the
34.
We
thought
did
that
completely
and
fully
the
two
that
we
did
not
fund
fully.
Their
numbers
were
just
not
adequate
to
support
funding.
A
AB
A
M
AC
AC
So
whatever
their
budget
was
assuming
it
fell
under
the
right
category,
category
one
would
be
covered
events
that's
covered
at
your
percentage
of
Tourism,
so
if
their
budget
exceeded
their
numbers
for
that,
that
would
be
the
reason
why
there'd
be
a
differentiation
between
what
they
requested
and
what
they
received,
and
that
would
be
in
any
of
the
eight,
the
seven
other
categories
and
then
in
those
categories
are
the
events,
cultural
buildings,
police
or
public
service
facilities,
transportation,
beach
erosion
and
visitor
centers.
C
Yeah
no
I
appreciate
that
explanation,
but
the
Gullah
museum
is
invaluable
to
us.
We
have
the
Town
Council
has
adopted
the
galagichi
cultural
and
land
preservation,
task
force,
recommendations
and
protecting
and
preserving
that
culture
is
Paramount.
This
museum
is,
is
seller
for
protecting
that
culture
and
with
regard
to
Turk
requirements.
I
do
understand
that
we
have
enough
funding
enough
funds
in
the
combination
taxes
to
it.
There's
only
a
gap
of
it's
the
11,
300
and
I
think
that's
critical
money
to
the
gala
Museum
and
notwithstanding
The
Turk
requirements.
C
I
think
there
is
some
discretion
within
the
interpretation
of
those
requirements.
I
I
did
listen
to
the
audio
of
your
full
hearing.
When
you
made
these
recommendations
when
you
came
up
with
it
and
I
heard
the
staff
calculation
of
Turk
requirements-
and
there
are
several
instances
where
the
committee
did
increase
the
amount
of
recommendation
above
the
Turk
requirements
and
so
I
think
we
ought
to
do
that
in
this
case
and
I
stand
by
my
request
to
amend
it
to
150
000.
AC
We
looked
at
that
and
as
a
committee,
because
we
had
sufficient
funding,
as
you
said,
to
fund
all
projects
fully,
we
looked
at
it
and
gave
the
differentiation
to
take
the
staff
recommendation,
which
was
higher
Turk
funding
than
the
committee
had
originally
recommended,
but
at
the
same
time,
if
again
and
it's
up
to
the
council
again
we're
just
making
a
recommendation,
my
only
fear
would
be
is
if,
if
the
budget
doesn't
they,
when
it
comes
down
to
allocating
those
funds,
and
such
the
review
by
the
the
Tourism
Committee
might
require
them
or
us
I'm,
not
sure
who
does
that
to
pay
those
funds
back
in
I'm?
A
C
A
K
But
I
do
want
to
point
out
that
the
adherence
to
The
Turk
regulations,
those
eight
points-
is
critical
to
the
work
being
done
by
the
atex
committee
and
not
only
that
each
situation
needs
to
be
balanced
by
the
facts
presented
to
them.
So
there
is
a
ratio
of
the
successful
objectives
of
an
organization,
their
pers,
their
presentation
of
what
they
hope
to
gain
in
the
future
to
what
is
is
awarded
and
I,
don't
think
Without
Really,
respecting
that
discussion
and
those
calculations.
K
A
Okay,
Josh
I
I
want
a
clarification
since
emotion
has
been
made
for
funding.
Do
we
need
to
continue
through
with
a
vote
on
that
line
item,
or
can
we
go
through
additional.
L
A
I
M
Yes,
that
was
exactly
it
was
colluded
that
there
wasn't
enough
from
out
of
town,
and
so
out
of
town
is
measured
at
50
miles.
Yeah.
AC
And
in
that
regard,
their
application
showed
that
they
only
during
the
year
had
132
tourists
and
it
at
a
forty
thousand
dollar
request.
That's
an
awful!
We
look
at
that
as
tourist
per
dollar
and
somehow
that's
how
we
make
our
decision
and
we
thought
that
was
too
excessive,
around
300
plus
dollars
per
tourist.
So,
yes,
thank
you.
C
C
So
I
did
not
read
the
whole
thing,
but
I
looked
at
some
of
the
financials
and
they
were
showing
that
they
made
money
in
several
years
and
so
I'm
trying
to
understand
why
they
need
an
increase.
I
know,
there's
an
anniversary
coming
up
the
20th
anniversary
of
Concord
Elegance
this
coming
year,
but
their
increase
is
78
000.
Is
there
anybody
here
from
Concord
Elegance
to
be
able
to
address
those
questions
we'll.
A
We'll
come
back
to
that.
Yeah
continue.
M
St
Patrick's
Day,
okay,
Hilton
Head,
Island
Wine
and
Food
Rhythm
and
Bruise
25
000.
M
I'm
sorry,
Mr
Mayor,
Symphony
Orchestra
did
I
get
Wine
and
Food
Fest.
There's
two
elements
to
this
and
there
was
two
different
applications
and
so
one
was
25
000.
The
other
was
130
000.
C
AC
Believe
that
they're,
their
request
was
all
in
promotion,
advertising
and
tourism
promotion.
AC
K
My
comment
would
just
be
that,
as
we
have
a
DMO
who
we
are
paying,
and
not
only
that
have
a
contract
with
where
we
scrutinize
those
dollars
and
those
activities,
and
we
have,
since
our
last
contract
with
them
required
more
transparency,
but
also
more
attention
to
be
given
on
at
the
residence
satisfaction
piece
of
their
work
that
we
look
to
what
is
happening
within
this
particular
organization.
That
in
question
now
and
perhaps
create
some
of
those
same
standards.
AC
And
that
was
one
of
the
things
that
we
looked
at
was
one
of
the
things
we
added
into
our
application
process.
This
year's
was
collaboration
and
otherwise
to
see
if
there's
duplicative,
resources
or
efforts.
We
did
not
make
it
this
year
because
it
was
a
brand
new
category
that
we'd
put
into
our
to
get
people
used
to
it.
We're
going
to
make
some
more
changes.
This
April,
when
we
get
back
together
and
in
in
August
in
the
process
to
get
things
done,
because
there's
a
lot
of
other
reasons.
Why
sometimes
it's
it
doesn't
get
loosey-goosey.
AC
But
it's
really
difficult
for
us
to
get
all
the
information
on
time
and
I
understand
that
we're
talking
with
the
Arts
and
Cultural
area
and
sometimes
deadlines,
don't
mean
a
lot
to
those
people.
I
come
from
a
legal
background
and
deadlines
mean
everything
in
the
legal
background,
so
this
year,
there's
going
to
be
some
more
changes
to
the
application,
and
one
of
those
is
going
to
be
timely
filing
of
all
your
documents
up
front-
and
we
may
be
talking
about
that
in
the
future,
because
we
may
consider
we
may
and
again.
AC
This
is
up
to
the
committee
may
consider
not
moving
forward
with
applications
that
are
not
are
not
timely,
filed
completely
this
time.
We
we
allow
amendments
up
to
the
last
minute
and
that
becomes
nerve-wracking
sometimes
trying
to
get
all
that
information
like
so
I.
Don't
have
all
that
off
the
top
of
my
head
son
right.
AC
AC
We
do
not
grant
them
funding
for
one
of
two
reasons:
one
we
have
a
DMO
and
second
of
all,
their
location
was
not
on
the
island
and
that's
two
of
the
things
we
look
for
is
to
be
island-based
and
the
other
thing
is
is
what
is
your?
What
is
your
your?
Do?
Your
your
function
and
we've
had
these
discussions
with
other
entities
that
are
up
there
and
you
know
like
the
Lowcountry
Golf
Course
Owners
Association,
both
the
DMO
and
they
promote
golf
right.
You
know,
so
that's
the
question.
AC
Sometimes
you
know
are
we
over
funding
and
these
are
the
questions
we
ask,
but
they
haven't
become
pertinent
in
the
last
two
years,
because
we've
had
adequate
funding.
My
fear
is
that
that
will
not
continue
forever.
When
I
first
started
on
the
committee
in
2018,
we
were
not
fully
funding
people
because
we
didn't
have
adequate
funds,
so
I'm
trying
to
set
up
a
process
still
to
get
that
done
so
that
we
can,
you
know,
kind
of
a.
A
Framework
Tammy
I'm
curious.
If
a
lot
of
your
questions
May
apply
to
some
of
these
others
as
well,
so
you
know
moving
forward,
maybe
to
have
a
better
explanation.
Understanding,
wouldn't
we
have
this
meeting
next
year.
AC
Right
that
needs
to
be
done.
We
plan
on
working
together
because
we
have
a
meeting
coming
up
in
in
April
when
we
look
at
the
DMO,
the
DMO,
and
then
we
have
organizational
meetings
in
July
and
August
before
the
application
process
starts
in
September,
and
so
the
committee,
when
they
meet
at
those
times,
will
will
take
up
suggestions
and.
K
I
think
that
might
be
why
I
was
talking
about
more
of
a
strict
adherence
to
these
to
these
guidelines
that
we
have,
because,
as
we
move
forward,
we
have
increased
expenses.
We
just
are
creating
a
housing
where
we
have
program
managers,
and
we
have
other
things
that
we've
mentioned
today
as
we're
going
through
some
of
the
budget
review,
where
monies
will
be
taken
from
other
areas
and
perhaps
at
this
stage
of
the
Town.
These
atex
funds
are
better
suited
for
for
use
by
the
town
as
we
absorb
the
costs
for
tourist
related
activities.
AC
We
make
a
recommendation,
I
mean
and
it's
up
to
the
council,
you
know,
but
we
look
at
it
from
the,
but
we
have
the
resources
that
come
in
and
but
the
law
on
statute
says
we
are
statutory
organization.
So
if
an
organization
is
qualified
and
is
producing
what
they
say
they
are,
then
we
take
them
up
if
the
council
decides
not
to
move
forward,
that's
your
prerogative
yeah.
Thank
you.
Thank.
K
A
O
O
A
M
Okay
and
that's
the
end
of
the
list,
and
so
we
can
go
back
to
the
top.
G
I
could
help
while
you're
looking
at
that
it.
Just
as
we
had
a
first
and
second
open
the
floor
for
discussion,
we
Asterix
I,
asked
I,
put
an
asterisk
on
several
I
think
to
to
change
the
staff
report
or
recommendation
from
ATAC
and
and
through
the
chair
that
we
amend
each
one
as
a
motion
to
amend
the
original
motion
and
if
we
do
it
that
way
at
the
very
end,
you'll
have
a
series
of
amendments
right
and
then
you
can
vote
once
on
all
of
it.
A
A
A
M
Think
what
we
could
do
is
we
could
take
ones
that
had
a
separate
legal
question
and
we
can
send
that
to
town
council's
attorney
and
and
get
an
opinion
and
I'm
sure
he
wouldn't
want
to
do
that
here,
but
we
can
take
the
facts
and
take
the
full
application
and-
and
let
him
take
a
look
at
it.
Okay
is.
A
Got
a
motion
before
you
yeah
it's
a
motion,
but
can
it
be
pending.
C
Let
me
ask
you
this:
if
we
make
it
some
sort
of
pending
or
tabling,
then
how
long
does
that
hold
up
the
funds
going
to
the
Gullah
Museum.
I
One
possible
solution
to
which
I
can
make
the
motion
is
that
we
approve
the
amount
that
the
committee
has
recommended
and
have
further
consideration
of
the
amount.
That's
in
question
at
a
later
date.
C
O
Typically,
when
a
motion
is
is
tabled,
you
take
up
the
item
at
your
next
meeting
and
I'm,
making
an
assumption
that,
as
we
go
down
this
list,
there
may
be
questions
and
concerns
on
others.
Right,
so
is
it
appropriate
that
we
agree
that
we
will
have
another
meeting
in
the
near
future
to
take
up
these
considerations
versus
waiting
another
month
to
get
there.
D
A
D
A
A
I
understand,
but
but
what
we're
doing
is
is
we're
going
to
address
each
one
individually
and
we're
going
to
vote
on
the
amend
and
then
come
back
and
approve
it
all
together.
Okay,
so
it's
so
that
would
be
approved
with
the
caveat
that
it
comes
back
for
reconsideration
of
the
additional
ten
thousand
three
hundred
dollars.
C
C
F
Let
me
let
me
make
a
general
comment:
I've
watched
the
atax
situation
over
a
number
of
years
and
where
we
get
into
trouble
is
when,
at
the
last
minute,
the
politicians
begin
to
make
their
decisions
based
on
associations
they
have
in
the
community.
C
K
So
we're
all
chiming
in
I'm
going
to
be
I'm,
going
to
restate
what
I
said
before
generally
in
a
Grant
application,
there
are
specific
criteria
that
must
be
met,
there's
a
ratio
and
an
analysis
that
is
done
by
those
who
are
making
the
decision
and
from
what
I
hear
that
has
made
in
consistent
with
the
way
they
made
other
decisions,
where
necessarily
the
request
was
not
the
committee's
recommendation,
and
so
believing
that
that
process
worked.
I
think
that
we
have
to
as
councilman
Ames
said,
trust
trust
that
committee
at
this
point,
hey.
I
I
suggest
that
these
particular
request
is
an
unusual
one,
because
the
issue
here
is
not
a
substantive
policy
issue,
but
whether
Turk
applies
or
not
and
I.
We
are
trying
to
postpone
it
solely
for
determining
whether
or
not
Turk
applies
and
whether
we
can
restore
the
additional
amount.
We
can't
restore
the
additional
amount
right.
P
A
A
A
Yeah
I'm
coming
back
around
okay
yep,
so
Concourse
was
put
up
there
at
385
000.
for
an
amendment
or
question.
C
I
I
would
recommend
that
we
put
this
one
all
for
decision,
because
unless
there's
someone
who
can
address
the
questions
in
looking
at
the
hundred
and
see
how
many
pages
was
it
172
page
application,
there
are
some
private
and
loss
statements
for
me,
there's
also
some
990s,
but
just
looking
at
the
p
l,
they
show
that
January
through
July
of
2022,
an
income
of
176
241
dollars,
January
to
December
2021
in
income
of
fifty
six
thousand
four
fourteen
January
to
December
of
2020,
a
loss
of
18603
January
to
December
of
2019,
an
income
of
thirty
one
thousand
four.
C
AC
I
I,
you
know-
and
these
are
questions
that
are
asked
at
the
committee
level
and
and
quite
frankly,
because
one
of
my
questions
is
because
my
background
is
handling
family
law
for
a
lot
of
years,
where's
the
money
hidden
when
we're
dividing
up
assets
and
things
like
that
yeah
they
had.
You
know
going
along
with
what
you
said.
They
had
retained
earnings
of
two
hundred
fourteen
thousand
dollars
up
from
156
000
a
year
before,
and
the
question
is
you
know
these
are
non-profits
that
doesn't
mean
they
have
to
spend
all
their
money.
AC
We
hope
at
some
point.
They
would
have
some
they
eventually
they
should
and
have
to
they
can't
return
it
to
shareholders.
Obviously-
and
that
was
a
question
that
we
look
at
a
lot
of
the
committee
and
that's
the
question
we
Ponder,
unlike
you,
what
we
do
when
we
go
through
each
one
of
these.
If
there's
a
difference
in
the
members
of
the
committee,
we
pull
them,
we
just
pull.
AC
You
know
we
can't
don't
have
to
have
the
Motions
into
this,
that
we
do
that
as
the
final
thing,
but
we
poll
our
members
as
we
go
through
for
each
individual.
If
there's
a
differentiation
between
them
and
majority
rule,
moves
on
I
didn't
agree
with
every
one
of
these
that
were
up
there,
but
at
the
end
I
voted
in
favor
of
the
group
as
a
total,
because
once
the
decision
was
made
on
any
individual
group,
we
moved
on
that's
what
we
do
on
a
committee.
AC
A
If
we
could
have
Bob
come
up
and
and
speak,
that
would
be
very
helpful.
May.
K
Over
time
that
the
they
increased
the
revenues
so
that
they
do
become
self-sufficient.
AC
One
of
the
things
that
The
Concourse
does
is
they
do
have
scholarships
I
suspect
over
time,
they'll
more
fully
fund
those
scholarships.
Just
like
the
the
foundation,
the
Carmine
Foundation
of
some
years,
they're
going
to
have
a
profit.
It's
pretty
good
next
year,
they're
going
to
give
it
all
away,
I
mean
that's
just
kind.
AD
Good
evening
my
name
is
Bob
Lee
I'm,
the
treasurer
for
the
Board
of
Trustees
The
Concourse.
There's
a
couple
things
you
raised:
I'll
try
to
address
them,
one
by
one.
AD
It's
not
fair
to
look
at
our
financial
statements
on
an
interim
basis
because
we
book
our
revenues
for
the
first
six
months
of
the
year
first,
seven
months
of
the
year,
but
we're
a
once
a
year
event
that
occurs
in
November.
So
most
of
our
expenses
are
in
September
October
November
when
we're
paying
to
create
the
actual
event
itself.
AD
So
we
we're
not
like
a
typical
business
where
you're
going
to
have
income
and
and
expenses
every
month
evenly
through
the
year,
it's
heavy
on
the
revenues
in
the
first
part
of
the
year
and
it's
heavy
on
the
expenses
in
the
second
part
of
the
year.
That's
one
thing!
Another
thing
is:
if
you
look
at
our
consolidating
financial
statements,
which,
which
is
what
what
you
have,
we
have
something
called
driving
Young
America
fund
and
that
driving
Young
America
fund.
AD
Concord
allows
driving
Young
America
to
do
its
own
fundraising
efforts
during
the
actual
event
itself
at
the
airport
on
Friday
night
Saturday
night
at
Harbor
Town,
we
have
auctions,
we
think
things
like
that,
so
what
you
really
need
to
do
to
get
to
the
operating
statement
of
just
the
Concord.
The
event
is
to
subtract
out
the
driving
on
America
revenues
and
to
subtract
out
the
driving
Young
America
expenses.
Those
are
separate
when
you
do
that.
What
you
find
is
that
we
are
like
most
events.
AD
AD
So
it's
an
outdoor
event.
The
other
thing
is
the
sponsors
you.
We
tried
to
build
them
up
as
you
go
along,
but
you
just
don't
know
really
what
you're
going
to
get
until
you
get
through
the
first
six,
seven
months
of
the
year.
So
what
we
try
to
do
is
retain
as
much
Capital
as
we
can,
because,
while
we're
booking
revenues
posting
revenues
financially,
it
isn't
cashed
until
the
6th
or
7th
or
eighth
month.
So
we
have
to
live
off
of
our
retained
earnings
for
those
first
six
or
seven
months.
AD
As
far
as
the
increase
is
concerned,
one
of
the
things
we're
going
to
be
looking
for
this
year
is
to
get
heavy
into
electric
vehicles.
That
is
the
where
the
where
the
industry
is
going
and
what
we're
doing
is
we're
taking
most
of
that
increase
and
we're
spending
it
on
social
media
and
social
media
influencers
for
them
to
help
us
get
the
electric
vehicle
Crown
to
our
event,
because
that's
something
typically
Concord
like
ours,
don't
do
I
will
give
you
an
update.
AD
C
I
would
move
to
reduce
their
funding
back
to
the
2022
amount
of
fun.
I've
lost
it
on
my
sheet.
Bear
with
me,
307
000
from
the
committee's
recommendation
of
385
000.
C
C
C
You're
right
to
ask
that
question
because
I
threw
both
of
those
in
there.
My
my
first
motion
was
to
reduce
it,
but
I
I
would
like
to
change
that
motion.
Withdraw
that
motion
and
make
a
motion
to
set
this
matter
aside
for
further
information.
W
Is
there
discussion,
amongst?
Was
there
a
discussion
amongst
Town,
Council
yeah.
P
A
A
K
So
I
wasn't
asking
for
an
amendment
to
that,
but
I
do
would
like
I
would
like
the
comment
that
I
was
consistent
with
with
regard
to
how
we
move
forward
to
the
next
round
of
applicants
and
awards
that
we
are
more
closely
that
we
are
closely
that
we
are
looking
at
the
criteria
as
set
forth
in
the
Turk
and
abiding
by
it.
I
don't
want
to
at
this
point
debate
the
decision
of
the
committee.
K
However,
moving
forward
I
do
want
to
see
a
more
closely
aligned
Awards
closely
aligned
Awards
with
the
Turk
I.
Don't
feel
that
some
of
these
organizations
fit
the
criteria.
Okay,.
O
Alex,
yes,
this
this
one
is
similar
to
the
discussion
that
we've
had
on
on
others.
O
There's
been
a
pretty
substantial
increase
in
the
funding
over
the
past
years
to
the
the
DMO
and
based
on
the
backup
materials.
O
A
Okay,
where
am
I
all
right,
so
Crystal
fuel
a
if
you'll
call
them
we
have
to
vote
on
that?
Yes,
yes,
that's
what
I'm
just
getting
ready
to
do!
Chris
up
you'll
call
the
roll
on
that.
Please
Mr.
A
G
D
O
I've
got
just
one
question
for
Mr
flock
of
the
chair,
I
thought
I
heard
you
say
that
I
guess
that
the
seven
Turk
requirements,
but
the
committee
has
added
an
eighth.
No,
no.
AC
AC
A
that's
a
it's
a
it's
a
requirement,
just
like
it's
kind
of
like
any
guidestone
that
we
would
have
we're
looking
for
Best
Practices
ourselves,
because
we
understand
that
these
dollars
are
measured.
If
we
don't
have
3.1
million
visitors
next
year
or
whatever
it
might
be,
we're
not
going
to
have
that
money.
O
Sure,
okay,
thank
you,
Mr
Mayor
I
would
I
would
ask
that
we
we
set
forth
a
a
meeting
with
the
FNA
committee
to
discuss
parameters
around
atex
distribution
before
the
ATAC
committee
gets
ahead
of
council
and
starts
to
provide
their
own
criteria
to
manage
funding.
Okay,
I
think
that's
our
job
as
policy
makers,
okay,
so
before
they
move
forward,
let's
discuss
it
at
the
committee
level.
Okay,.
U
U
U
You,
it
doesn't
say
Chamber
of
Commerce,
and
here
it
says.
K
K
V
Also,
this
golf
Hilton
Head
Golf
Magazine,
that
you
see
around
it's
got
a
Hilton
headgolfisland.com,
that's
owned
by
the
chamber.
This
is
tied
into
the
Lowcountry
golf
Owners
Association,
it's
a
scam.
It's
a
for-profit!
It's
illegal
and
the
chambers
listed
on
this
two
two
thousand
two
three
accommodation
tax
which
you've
eliminated
there.
You
also
hide
the
chamber
under
the
Hilton
Head
Island.
You
hide
that
for
the
not
the
supplemental
Grant
but
the
DMO
funds,
and
then,
of
course,
they
get
South
Carolina
PRT
funding,
a
million
and
a
half
from
the
governor.
V
We
don't
know
how
much
comes
from
the
South
Carolina
PRT
that
goes
directly
to
Bill
Miles
pocket
not
through
through
this,
and
then
we
don't
know
what
his
profits
are
from
the
DMO
website
in
Canada,
where
he
sells
advertising
tied
in
with
the
Golf
Association
with
Kerry
Corbett
and
Brad
Mara
Palmetto
Dunes.
It
couldn't
be
any
more
crooked
and
couldn't
be
any
more
legal
and
the
if
the
FBI
and
the
IRS
it
will
get
involved
in
all
this
they'll
look
at
all
this
and
you
can't
just
keep
on
funding
all
this.
V
You
cannot
use
issue
tax
money
to
non-profits,
it's
not
used
for
the
promotion
and
marketing
and
tourism
and
tourism
related
products.
You
must
make
every
recipient
sign
a
tax
recipient
agreement,
spelling
out
the
how
a
tax
funds
can
be
legally
used
and
all
accounting
fully
reported
with
receipts
and
matching
invoices.
You
cannot
issue
public
funds
and
be
used
for
private
purposes.
Illegal
profits
like
the
chamber
and
the
Lowcountry
golf
Owners
Association
period.
V
Private
nonprofits
might
be
worthy
heartfelt,
the
Boys
and
Girls
Club
Long
Cove
Club
Carmine's
Memorial
Foundation,
the
world
affairs
Council
Heritage
Library
Mitchellville
project.
But
the
fact
is:
it's:
it's
illegal!
It's
illegal
to
use
public
funds
to
to
to
to
to
fund
a
private
non-profits.
These
non-profits
must
be
funded
by
their
private
members
and
their
donors,
not
tax
taxpayers
money.
You
all
have
to
start
learning
and
understanding
that
public
money
is
for
the
public
good
reason
and
benefit.
It's
not
just
to
throw
out
like
a
game
of
Monopoly
and
funny
money.
V
Oh
yeah
give
them
a
hundred
thousand
give
them
five
hundred
thousand.
You
know
what
you
all
need
to
start
doing
is
learning
to
spend
at
what
you
and
live
by
your
campaign.
Promises
to
spend
and
protect
and
approve
money
like
it
was
coming
out
of
your
bank
account.
That's
how
I
look
at
it.
We're
trusting
y'all
to
spend
our
money,
our
hard-earned
tax
money
to
be
responsible
and
you're,
not
being
responsible,
you're
irresponsible
in
fact,
you're
illegal,
it's
criminal!
What
you
do.
A
Seeing
none
Christopher
any
discussion
further
on
Council,
because
if
you'll
call
the
role.
T
D
A
A
N
Good
evening
happy
to
be
back
in
front
of
you
again,
I'll
try
to
be
brief.
The
greater
Ireland
Council
had
submitted
a
resolution
to
Town
Council
for
consideration.
That's
the
second
of
second
resolution
they've
submitted
in
the
past
year
for
consideration.
The
second
resolution
focuses
on
the
importance
of
a
southern
Beaufort
County
Materials
recycling
facility
and
physical
operation
improvements
at
the
Hilton
Head
Convenience
Center.
Both
of
these
would
require
consideration
with
Town
and
County
CIP
programs.
N
The
I'm
trying
to
give
you
a
little
differentiation
between
the
resolution
that
came
forward
the
first
one
and
the
second
one.
The
first
one
was
about
extending
the
Hickory
Hill
landfill
agreement
and
look
at
holler
operations.
The
second
one
is
focus
more
about
more
on
a
Beaufort
County
facility
built
for
material
recycling,
also
looking
at
single
stream
recycling
for
solid
waste
recycling
and
organic
waste,
and
then
improving
the
convenience
center
here
on
Hilton
Head
Island.
N
The
resolution
that's
before
Town
Council
outlines
the
consistency
with
the
town's
comprehensive
plan,
our
plan,
which
has
several
consistent
goals
and
strategies
that
are
related
to
this
effort.
The
our
plan
talks
about
ways
to
seek
increase.
Island
water
recycling,
improve
organic
waste
collection
on
Hilton
island
I
want
to
point
out
that
the
town
is
going
to
be
conducting
a
SWOT
analysis
of
solid
waste
and
recycling
as
part
of
a
strategic
plan.
N
Efforts
on
Hilton,
island
and
I
want
to
thank
the
greater
Island
committee
and
the
sustainability
action
committee
and
bringing
this
and
continue
to
push
this
agenda
forward
and
work
for,
and
we're
committed
to
work
for
the
Beaufort,
County
or
independently
on
Hilton
island
to
advance
these
Recycling
and
solid
waste
efforts.
There
are
rep
Representatives
here,
sorry.
N
N
G
It's
important
to
say
that
the
greater
Island
Council
provided
a
resolution.
Are
you
going
to
explain
that
part
that
it
came
through
committee?
The
committee
had
passed
that
resolution
forward
with
the
recommendation
of
Town
Council
and
then,
as
a
result,
we've
created
a
resolution
of
Our
Own
for
Town
Council
consideration
tonight,
fully
supporting
the
gic's
resolution.
Yeah.
N
That's
correct
and
we
do
have
represent
representatives
from
the
GIC
here:
Peter
Christian,
Mark
Baker.
We
have
Neil
desada
County
Public
Works
director
also,
who
can
then
speak
on
this
I
can
run
through
the
resolution
quickly
again.
The
focus
of
the
second
resolution
is
on
the
on
the
murf
on
the
material
recycling
facility
and
coordination
in
Beaufort
County
on
its
installation
and
then
working
on
solid
waste
recycling
operations
jointly
with
the
county.
F
Sean,
so
would
you
go
scroll
back
up
to
the
top?
Please?
Yes,
sir,
so
that
essentially
is
the
motion.
I
can
make
a
motion
in
favor
resolution
recommending
Hilton
Head
Island
Town
Council
in
Beaufort
County
Council
work
together
in
the
development
of
a
new
long-term
agreement
that
will
secure
the
landfill
and
recycling
needs
of
Hilton,
Head,
Island
and
Beaufort
County.
D
N
F
My
motion
I'll,
withdraw
my
second
and
then
make
another
motion
to
support
a
resolution
of
the
Town
Council
of
the
town
of
Hilton
Head
Island
South
Carolina,
publicly,
stating
its
commitment
to
working
with
the
Beaufort
County
Council
to
develop
sustainable
and
viable
long-term
residential
Solid,
Waste,
Management
and
recycling
initiatives
that
will
improve
the
efficiency
of
solid
waste
disposal,
increase
the
collection
of
recyclable
materials
and
improve
overall
recycling
rates
and
support
the
exploration
of
new
waste
disposal.
Efforts
such
as
composting
on
Hilton
Head
Island
and
within
Beaufort
County.
Second,.
O
I
guess
this
is
just
a
Curiosity
on
my
point.
I
know
that
we're
going
to
be
having
conversations
around
sustainability.
We
have
a
SWOT
analysis
as
we're
moving
forward
with
the
Strategic
plan
during
the
strategic
planning
workshop
I'm,
making
an
assumption
that
we
will
be
giving
Mr
Orlando
some
type
of
Direction
and
how
that
direction.
A
G
There
we
go
Peyton,
as
Josh
is
doing
that.
It's
it's
really
important
and
I'll
say
this,
and
thank
you
Josh
for
doing
that,
because
that's
so
important,
I
I
do
not
want
to
lose
track
of
what
the
greater
Island
Council
asked
us
through
commission
through
their
hard
work
to
do,
I
don't
want
to
dilute
it.
I
don't
want
to
misinterpret
what
they're
asking
us
to
do.
I
brought
this
forward
as
a
resolution
that
we
would
simply
one
state
we're
in
the
business
state
that
we're
going
to
work
with
Beaufort
County
Mr
Desai.
G
Thank
you,
but
I
also
think
it's
important
that
as
I
asked
that
we
go
through
if
we
want
to-
and
we
can
do
it
tonight
if
we
table
it
and
I
want
to
go
through
this-
that
strategic
plan,
because
I
think
the
differential
between
what
greater
Allen
council
is
asking
us
to
do
would
be
for
county,
is
and
isn't
doing
and
what
you
all
would
like
me
to
do
moving
forward
one
week
we
owe
you
is
a
professional,
not
a
guesstimate,
a
professional
SWOT
analysis
of
our
Island's
Solid,
Waste
and
Recycling
I.
G
Think
the
great
work
and
the
commitment
from
greater
Island
council
is
helping
us
churn
us
along
right
there's
a
lot
of
things
on
our
plate,
but
this
is
one
of
those
things
that
won't
be
forgotten
because
of
great
around
the
council's
resolution
and
your
commitment
to
that.
But
I
think
it's
important
we
slow
down
and
look
at
the
recitals
of
Greater
Island
Council.
We
look
at
the
recitals
of
our
resolution
and
we
make
as
I
used
to
say
back
home
a
nice
big
snowball
and
put
it
in
the
Strategic
plan
together.
G
A
V
V
Thank
you
very
much
for
the
corruption
never
ends
members
of
council.
How
does
a
private
member
organization,
the
greater
Island
Council,
have
a
special
status
of
the
governors
of
the
town
over
others,
including
the
illegally
operated
chamber
also
involved
with
the
GRC?
Who
are
they
to
be
approving
any
governmental
action?
The
GIC
is
a
secretive
members,
only
organization
claiming
to
be
an
informed,
Community
Advocates,
but
there
is
no
outside
review
of
the
accuracy
of
their
accuracy
or
operating
legally.
In
fact,
GIC
violated
several
provisions
of
the
state
ethics
laws
and
I've
attached.
V
The
commission's
former
Lauder,
where
admitted
to
allegations
where
the
GRC
lobbied,
without
registering
as
a
lobbyist
for
a
road
referendum
via
a
proxy
called
citizens
for
better
roads
and
bridges.
This
was
a
major
concern
of
County,
Council
and
Stu.
Robbins
emails
to
his
fellow
councilman
are
attached
seems
a
greater
Island
Council
in
what
I
call
the
secretive
underground
non-elected
government
group
is
funded
in
part
by
the
GIC,
the
chamber
and
private
funds.
V
The
reason
the
GIC
has
a
seat
at
the
table
is
because
Ames
and
Stanford
and
brown
and
passed
councilman,
McCann,
Harkins
and
Lennox
all
belong
to
it
and
have
all
tried
to
remain
in
the
shadows,
but
not
to
mention
other
officials
who
have
committed
fraud,
facilitated
foia
and
tax
fund
violations
like
Dallas
miles
chamber,
CPA,
warco,
Terry
Herron,
and
now
we
discover
surprise
County.
Council
officials
passed
Rodman,
County,
chair,
pacimet,
Vice,
chair
McAllen,
also
GIC
members,
when
you
hide.
V
According
to
attached
campaign
disclosure
reports,
councilman
passed
GIC
president
Stanford
donated
200
and
he
listed
retired
rather
than
elected
official
Harkins
donate,
did
500
dollars
cloaking
his
donation
under
Legacy
project
Services
LLC
LLC,
John,
Alderman,
GRC,
200,
mcellen,
County
Council
over
100
Terence,
Herron
500,
it's
simpler
to
list
those
who
didn't
make
a
donation
to
Perry
campaign,
Perry
and
and
then
Perry
will
be
a
part-time
failure
and
stated
we'll
let
the
town,
employees,
the
chamber
and
the
GIC
run
our
government.
It's
insane.
V
It's
clear
pay
to
play
candidate
donations,
lobbying
for
the
town's
pet
projects
and
cozy
relationships
equals
access
to
town,
government
and
Council
votes.
Therefore,
my
question
is
to
to
you
Mr
Perry.
How
much
will
it
cost
me
to
defeat
defund
the
chamber,
eliminate
GIC
and
get
you
Mr
Perry,
and
this
entire
Council
to
vote
the
right
way
and
comply
to
the
law?

AA
Like
to
make
a
public
company-
yes
hi,
my
name
is
Grace
Smith
I
live
at
11
wheelers
Creek
on
Hilton
Head
I,
don't
profess
to
have
any
expertise
in
this
area,
but
I
do
want
to
bring
up
just
one
thing:
I
happen
to
notice
in
this
presentation,
and
that
is
at
the
top
of
it.
AA
Someplace
there
was
some
mention
about
increasing
the
size
of
the
current
I
think
they
called
it
a
convenience
center
on
Hilton
Head
Island,
which
I
guess
is
you
know
the
dump,
but
I
I
would
just
and
then
I
didn't
notice
that
in
the
resolutions
and
whereas
is
at
the
bottom
and
so
I
would
just
like
to
alert.
AA
Town
Council
to
you
know
we're
pretty
delicate
ecological
entity
here
on
Hilton,
Head,
Island
and
I
think
we
need
to
be
very,
very
cautious
before
we
get
into
bed
with
the
county
and
the
GIC
and
anybody
else
about
their
possibly
being
a
sizable
increase
in
our
recycling
center
Convenience
Center
dump
I,
you
know
I'm
I
I
know
there
was
there
was
another
project
that
kind
of
came
up
about
this
and
you
know:
there's
concerns
about
groundwater
quality
and
Estuary
quality
in
proximity
to
these
waste
processing.
AA
Waste
Management
areas,
so
I
just
saw
that
and
I
just
figured
I'd
like
to
call
you
guys
attention
to
it.
Thank
you.
Thank
you.
Mr.
A
K
Relevant
to
Mr
Smith's
question
the
enlargement,
the
potential
enlargement
of
the
convenience
center
here.
My
my
question
really
is
a
is
that
is
that
factual
MB?
What
would
other
municipalities
within
Beaufort
County
be
also
bringing
their
debris
here
to
the
island
to
use
our
Convenience,
Center
and
I?
Know
I've
asked
100
questions
previously,
but
that
is
you
know.
I'm
gonna
ask
again.
N
Provision
in
the
greater
Island
Council
resolution
included
an
item
to
consider
expansion
of
the
town's
convenience
and
and
salaries
Recycling
and
our
resolution.
It's
let's
do
the
SWOT
analysis
to
determine
what
Hilton
Head
needs
are
and
work
in
partnership
with
the
county
or
independently
to
determine
what
that
path
would
be.
So
there's
no
commitment
to
increase
that
facility
at
this
time.
Y
Your
your
patience
and
dealing
with
all
of
what
you
deal
with
I
am
a
member
of
the
GIC
for
the
record
I
care,
the
sustainability
committee
for
the
GIC.
It's
public
knowledge
in
that
resolution.
There
were
several
suggestions
and
there
were
suggestions.
The
Hilton,
Head
Island
Convenience
Center,
is
the
most
heavily
used
Recycling
and
convenience
center
in
Beaufort
County.
Y
Every
truck
has
to
go
to
the
Hickory
Hill
landfill.
To
offload
the
present
and
I've
told
you
this
before
funding
for
recycling
and
for
trash
hauling
to
the
Hickory
Hill
is
but
backwards.
If
you
want
to
recycle,
you
have
to
pay
and
that's
the
residential
hallway
that
goes
to
the
Hickory
Hill
landfill.
If
they
have
trash
it
is
the
Tipping
fee
is
picked
up
by
Beaufort
County,
so
it
discourages
recycling,
absolutely
discourages
it.
Y
The
Murph
will
take
recycling,
it
will
package
it
at
the
source
and
then
Market
it
to
a
user
who
is
going
to
turn
it
into
either
the
same
item
again.
If
it's
an
aluminum
can
we're
aluminum
cans.
There's
plastic,
you
know
more
more
plastic,
but
it
can
be
also
converted
into
rugs
and
other
of
the
products.
That's
the
reason
for
for
the
Merc.
Y
Y
I
do
want
to
point
out
that
Neil
Cindy
Carter
myself
Mike
Bennett,
who
had
to
leave
because
he
has
kids
he
has
to
coach
and
and
Jeff
Buckley,
meet
on
a
monthly
basis,
and
we
talk
about
everything
that
is
going
on
and
there's
also
a
a
new
oyster
recycling
area.
That's
going
to
be
at
the
base
of
the
bridge
that
we've
been
working
on
with
lawyers
for
God
knows
how
long
and
I
believe
it's
finally
going
to
come
to
fruition,
and
that
is
an
area
where
we,
the
community,
can
collect
oyster
shelves.
Y
We
can
work
out
and
we'll
be
happy
to
work
with
you,
but
we've
been
working
on
this
for
several
years
and
then
then
mayor
asked
us
to
take
the
lead
on
this
because
they
did
not
have
the
staff
time
to
do
it
and
we've
been
carrying
the
water,
Mark
Baker,
myself,
Neil,
Cindy
and
others
on
that
that
committee.
A
Thank
you,
okay,
we're
going
to
pull
it
back
to
the
dice
now
before.
O
The
the
resolution
we've
already
approved
one
resolution-
okay
in
this
manner,
and
now
here
we
are
again
and
it's
not
that
I'm
not
supporting
us
going
in
this
direction.
It's
not
that
I'm
not
supporting
being
collaborative
with
the
county.
What
I'm
simply
saying
is
the
resolution
doesn't
necessarily
speak
to
us,
owning
the
problem:
okay
and
the
the
mere
Factor.
The
comments
made
that
we
don't
have
adequate
staff
to
solve.
This
is
concerning
to
me.
O
Okay,
so
I
want
to
make
sure
that
we
move
into
strategic
planning
workshop,
giving
our
time
manager
clear,
Direction,
This,
Is,
Our
issue,
we're
going
to
take
ownership
work
with
the
county
and
move
forward.
This
resolution
doesn't
necessarily
speak
to
understand.
The
word
develop
is
in
there,
but
owning
the
development
is
not
so
I
will
not
be
supporting
it
tonight.
Thank
you.
Okay,.
K
So
listening
to
councilman
Ames,
one
of
the
things
that
I
feel
strongly
about
is
that
you
guys
are
all
on
the
right
track.
I,
don't
have
any
objection
to
any
of
the
statements
that
were
just
made,
I
think
the
other
than
the
last
comment
that
y'all
would
be
willing
to
work
with
us
as
we
move
forward.
I
Would
like
to
hear
the
con
discussion
of
the
difference
between
the
resolution
presented
by
the
see
I
the
organization
and
concerns
that
may
exist
between
the
resolution
that's
presented
to
us
tonight.
So
my
vote
is
no.
A
G
C
I
might
before
you
move
to
the
motion
on
Executive
session
I
had
asked
about
one
of
the
items:
11a
subsection
5.
I
just
want
to
make
sure
that,
with
regard
to
appointments
to
boards
and
commissions,
they
were
absolutely
transparent
about
vacancies,
not
particular
individuals
or
their
qualifications,
but
vacancies
and
the
process
I
think
that's
public
information.
G
Move
into
exact
session
regarding
Town
Council,
exec
session
Item,
11a,
B
and
C
discussion
of
personnel
matters
regarding
appointments
to
board
commissions
pursuant
to
foia
30-4781,
as
well
as
proposed
contractual
Arrangements
concerning
the
Heritage
Classic
Foundation
pursuant
to
30-470
A2,
and
then
legal
advice
on
a
multitude
of
items
shown
through
the
Roman
numerals
as
it
relates
to
foia
30-4070
A2
under
attorney-client
privilege.
Make.
F
We
have
a
motion
regarding
the
Beaufort
County
Economic
Development
Corporation
I,
moved
to
appoint
mayor
Alan
Perry
to
serve
and
represent
the
town
of
Hilton
Head
Island
and
the
Beaufort
County
Economic
Development
Corporation.
In
the
absence
of
the
mayor,
councilman
Tamara
Becker
will
stand
in
as
the
mayor's
designee.
Second.
J
F
I
have
a
second
motion
regarding
the
North
Point
Public
private
partnership
committee
to
Port
parts
of
the
motion.
I
moved
to
approve
the
resolution
for
the
town
of
Hilton
Head
amending
the
membership
of
the
North
Point
Public
private
partnership,
housing
advisory
committee,
adding
additional
citizen
seat
I
think
we
should
vote
on
that.
O
B
F
Part
of
that
motion
as
I
move
to
a
point:
Glenn
Stanford
as
a
town
council
member
to
fill
the
current
vacancy
of
Tom
Lennox
as
a
citizen.
As
a
citizen
member
to
the
North
Point
Public
private
partnership,
housing
committee-
that's
a
little
bit
ambiguous.
It
says
and
to
also
add
Tom
Lennox.
As
a
citizen
member
to
the
North
Point
Public
private
partnership,
housing
advisory
committee.
C
A
F
And
the
final
motion
having
to
do
with
the
sponsorship
agreement
with
the
Heritage
Classic
Foundation
I,
moved
to
authorize
the
execution
of
the
sponsorship
agreement
between
the
Heritage
Classic
foundation
and
the
town
of
Hilton
Head
Island.
For
the
year
2023
RBC
Heritage,
presented
by
