A
Good
afternoon,
everybody
welcome
to
the
june
7th
town
council
agenda
free
christy.
Are
we
in
compliance
with
the
freedom
information
act?
Yes,.

Yes,
sir
good
afternoon,
mayor
council
members
of
the
community
under
the
report
of
town
managers,
I
have
a
couple
items
but,
first
and
foremost
senator
tom
davis,
oh
hey
tom,
come
on
up.
Sir
senator
davis
has
asked
to
appear
before
council
to
provide
a
an
update
on
some
various
items
that
I
know
he's
been
working
on
closely,
one
of
which
william
parkway
closely
with
us,
but
then
perhaps
some
other
things
in
colombia.
So,
first
and
foremost,
very
thankful
and
grateful
to
you
for
all
your
help
that
you
provide
to
us,
sir.
F
Thank
you
appreciate
the
opportunity
to
talk
to
you
guys
really
just
wanted
to
update
you
on
what
we
accomplished
and
didn't
accomplish
during
the
2022
legislative
session,
to
talk
about
some
matters
that
I
know
that
you're
interested
in
terms
of
appropriations
to
talk
about
some
legislation
that
was
enacted
in
regard
to
open
space
and
green
space
and
then
to
sort
of
recount
my
understanding
of
where
I
think
we
are
in
regard
to
the
278
corridor
and
then
to
answer
any
questions
that
you
all
might
have.
So
it's
basically
a
an
informational
purpose.
F
I
suspect
it
will
be
substantial
increases
for
k-12
funding
for
all
of
beaufort
county
I-95
has
now
been
fully
funded
to
three
lanes
in
each
direction
and
repaving
from
the
georgia
south
carolina
line
all
the
way
to
walterboro
we're
now
in
the
process
of
trying
to
accelerate
that
schedule.
They've
already
acquired
the
rights
of
ways,
they've
done
the
environmental
mitigation,
and
so
now
it's
a
matter
of
moving
it
up
in
the
queue
in
terms
of
when
they
start
construction.
F
There
was
an
additional
1.3
billion
dollars,
recognized
by
the
board
of
economic
advisors
just
three
weeks
ago,
that
wasn't
even
appropriated
by
the
general
assembly,
just
another
1.3
billion
dollars
that
they
found
in
the
cushion.
So
so,
I
think,
there's
a
an
excellent
chance
that
we
can
increase
the
state
funding
for
that
new
terminal.
I
know
that
there's
been
a
package
put
together
whereby
the
county
has
committed
some
money.
The
faa
has
committed
some
money,
so
I
think
there's
a
substantial
likelihood
that
we
get
that
fully
funded
in
the
near
future.
F
F
The
initiative
on
called
the
economic
development
corporation
for
the
old
stoney
neighborhood,
and
there
is
an
appropriation
request
in
play
right
now
in
senate
finance
that
has
not
yet
been
incorporated
into
the
budget,
but
I'm
very
optimistic,
especially
since
another
1.3
billion
in
one-time
money
was
recently
certified
by
the
bea.
I'm
confident
that
we
can
get
some
money,
some
seed
money
to
put
in
that
edc.
F
I
think
that
beaufort
county
has
committed
to
putting
some
money
into
that
edc
as
well.
So
I
think
it's
an
excellent
opportunity
as
you
go
about
deciding
upon
what
to
do
with
the
278
corridor.
Parallel
to
that
will
be
this
effort
to
try
to
bring
some
attention
to
the
northern
part
of
the
island
which,
as
you
all
know,
has
historically
borne
more
of
the
brunt
of
development
on
hilton
head
than
other
areas,
and
so
that's
going
to
be
an
excellent
opportunity
for
the
town
to
be
proactive,
and
I
commend
you
all
for
doing
that.
F
I
think
that
was
an
excellent
step
in
regard
to
the
278
corridor
process.
I'm
obviously
not
a
principal
in
that
particular
deal.
The
principles
are
the
town
of
hilton
head.
Beaufort
county
and
the
southland
department
of
transportation,
but
over
the
last
couple
years
I've
been
involved
in
facilitating
some
of
the
discussions,
and
I
thought
I
would
share
with
council
where
I
think
things
stand
right
now
and
then
I'd
be
happy
to
answer
any
questions
you
all
might
have
there.
F
There
seem
to
be
three
parallel
initiatives
that
are
taking
place
between
the
town
and
the
county
and
and
and
they're
separate
in
in
in
some
respects,
and
that
they
deal
with
with
separate
things
but
they're
also
concurrent
in
that
they
are
all
interrelated.
In
regard
to
what
I
think
is
the
overall
objective.
F
The
first
agreement
that
I
think
is
being
discussed
between
the
county
and
the
town
is
in
regard
to
how
the
two
entities
can
go
about
accomplishing
two
things
one
is
is
trying
as
best
we
can
to
implement
and
fund
the
recommendations
of
the
alterations
to
the
bridge
that
this
town
has
recommended
to
the
scdot.
I
believe
you
submitted
it
mark,
maybe
three
or
four
months
ago,
and
I
think
there
were
26
specific
recommendations.
F
The
task
there
is
to
get
the
dot
to
agree
to
incorporate
them
into
the
overall
design.
The
second
part
is
to
find
the
funding
to
pay
for
those
those
additional
changes
and
improvements,
and
so
that
particular
agreement
to
the
town
of
the
county
would
spell
out
how
the
two
entities
would
work
together
toward
that
end.
F
F
The
idea
being
that
we
could
have
a
simulated
analysis
done
of
what
traffic
movements
would
be
if
the
dot's
preferred
alternative
were
were
implemented
and
then
to
compare
that
simulated
data
against
simulations
done
in
regard
to
some
alternatives,
so
that
town
council
would
have
a
better
idea
when
it's
called
upon
by
the
d.o.t
and
beaufort
county
to
continue
foot
dragging
quite
to
the
contrary.
I
think
there's
a
a
lot
of
respect
that
has
been
garnered
by
for
the
town
of
hilton
head
for
the
diligence
that
you
guys
have
paid
on
this
project.
F
So
I
wanted
to
to
point
those
aspects
of
the
state
about
this
process.
The
second
parallel
but
separate
memorandum
of
agreement
that
I
anticipate-
and
this
is
again
a
result
of
discussions
that
I
think
mark
has
had
with
eric
greenway.
F
It's
not
me
coming
up
with
whole
cloth,
that's
something
that
your
excellent
town
managers
have
gone
together
and
put
together,
but
the
second
piece
of
that
would
be
looking
at
the
traffic
optimizational
studies
that
both
beaufort
county
and
the
town
of
hilton
head
have
built
into
their
budgets
and
and
making
sure
that
those
two
studies
were
compatible,
and
by
that
I
mean
they're
using
the
same
criteria,
the
same
analytics
and
and
making
sure
that
they
make
sense
in
combination
and
then
coordinating
the
two
so
that
you
have
a
comprehensive
traffic
study
done
for
all
of
hilton
head
and
then
extending
out
onto
the
mainland
to
the
bulk
walter
parkway.
F
The
idea
being
that
having
that
information
in
regard
to
how
you
optimize
that
civilization
could
also
have
an
impact
on
the
decisions
you
make
about
the
278
corridor,
I
mean
it's
all.
It
gives
you
again
at
the
position
or
the
the
purpose
being
to
put
you
in
a
position
to
make
the
best
decision
possible
for
the
people
of
hilton
head
and
it's
my
understanding
that
that
agreement
is
also
being
drafted.
F
F
I
think
it's
important
to
memorialize
that
one,
because
it
then
gives
you
know
an
understanding
or
an
expectation
of
what
monies
beaufort
county
will
give
as
seed
money,
but
secondly,
and
equally
important.
It
puts
me
in
a
position
and
also
other
members
of
the
buford
county
legislative
delegation
in
a
position
to
secure
appropriations
from
the
general
assembly
gives
us
a
vehicle.
F
We
can
point
to
and
say
this
is
the
way
by
which
the
town
of
hilton
hot
island
is
going
to
mitigate
some
of
the
impacts
to
stoney,
and
that's
a
very
compelling
argument
up
there
in
colombia,
and
so
this
brings
focus
to
that
particular
compelling
argument
and
gives
us
an
ability,
not
just
this
year
but
in
subsequent
years,
to
go
ahead
and
provide
some
source
of
funding
for
that
edc.
So
I
wanted
to
have
this
opportunity
to
share
that
with
you.
F
One
last
thing
is
in
regard
to
a
green
space
bill
that
that
I
authored
and
got
passed
and
and
what
it
does
and
governor
mcmaster
signed
into
law
a
couple
weeks
ago.
It
allows
beaufort
county
to
submit
to
the
voters
for
approval
a
one
penny
sales
tax
for
the
purpose
of
generating
a
revenue
stream
that
will
then
pay
for
the
acquisition
of
open
space
development
rights,
densities
and
things
of
that
nature.
F
What
I
anticipate
in
the
way
the
bill
was
drafted
was
that
that,
if
that
is
approved
by
the
voters,
subject
to
a
referendum,
that
income
stream
could
then
be
leveraged
by
the
counties,
they
could
issue
bonds.
For
instance,
400
million
500
million
dollars
worth
of
bonds.
Those
bonds
will
be
amortized
over
a
period
of
time
depending
upon
what
it
took
to
amortize
that
debt.
The
idea,
then,
being
that
we
could
leverage
the
resources
we
have
with
beaufort
county's
rural
and
critical
lands
committee
they're
already
established.
F
They
already
have
a
good
track
record
and
to
really
be
aggressive
in
regard
to
buying
up
densities
and
and
trying
to
buy
up
open
space
with
southern
beaufort
county.
I'm
very
concerned
about
what
is
happening,
particularly
in
the
southern
part
of
beaufort
county
and
in
jasper
county
as
well.
If,
if
every
unit
is
built,
that's
already
been
authorized
already
been
approved
already
in
the
development
agreement,
you're
going
to
be
doubling
the
number
of
rooftops
that
are
currently
in
southern
jasper,
county
and
southern
beaufort
county,
we
simply
can't.
F
We
can't
sustain
that
our
waterways
can't
sustain
that.
Our
roadways
can't
sustain
that.
We
will
be
fast
on
the
way
to
becoming
mount
pleasant.
Now
I
understand
this
is
a
horrible
time
to
be
talking
about
a
penny
sales
tax
for
two
reasons:
one
inflation
people
are
paying
four
dollars
and
some
odd
cents.
A
gallon
at
the
pump
for
gasoline
it's
a
very
unfortunate
or
untimely.
You
know
time
to
really
ask
for
a
penny
sales
tax
for
that
purpose.
F
But
then
again,
I
would
argue,
there's
a
sense
of
urgency
here
in
another
three
to
five
years.
The
horse
is
out
of
the
barn,
and
it's
done
so.
I
think
it's
a
conversation
we
should
at
least
have-
and
I
wanted
to
make
you
guys
aware
that
that
tool
is
now
available,
and
I
want
that
to
enter
into
this
conversation.
F
The
second
reason
why
it's
problematic
is,
I
know
that
beaufort
county
at
this
point
is
contemplating
a
penny
sales
tax
in
november
to
pay
for
road
projects
for
on
a
county-wide
basis,
and
I'm
not
denigrating
the
work
that
the
county
has
done
at
all
in
that
regard,
and
I'm
not
necessarily
standing
here
to
make
an
argument
against
that.
But
I
don't
think
the
problem
that
I've
just
articulated
is
something
we
can
pave
our
way
out
of
it's.
F
It's
and
really,
I
think
it
is,
is
it's
a
very
exigent
circumstance
here
and
so
I'm
going
to
address
county
council
at
the
meeting
next
week.
In
this
regard,
it's
my
understanding,
there's
two
more
readings
that
they
have
to
give
to
this
penny
sales
tax
for
road
projects.
F
I
want
to
introduce
this
as
as
either
an
alternative
or
something
that
can
be
done
complementary
to
what
they
do
this
november
for
the
penny
sales
tax
for
the
roads.
I
I
really
think
that
if
we
wait
another
election
cycle
in
two
more
years,
it's
going
to
be
too
late.
So
would
that
by
a
way
of
explanation,
that's
why
I
requested
a
chance
to
talk
to
you
guys
and
I'm
happy
to
answer
any
questions
you
might
have.
D
Thank
you.
First
of
all,
tom,
you
say
you're,
not
a
party
having
to
do
with
the
carter
project.
I
respectfully
disagree.
You
are
a
very
valuable
neutral
arbiter
between
us
and
the
county,
helping
to
facilitate
these
things
and
without
your
assistance
I
don't
know
where
we
would
be
now.
So
I
am
very,
very
grateful
to
you
for
that.
I
think
the
concepts
of
these
mousse,
which
you
have
recommended
to
both
us
and
to
the
county,
make
a
whole
lot
of
sense
and
I'm
going
to
push
to
get
those
things
adopted
as
quickly
as
possible.
F
You
glenn,
I
guess
I
guess
the
reason
I
say
that
is.
I
want
to
be
respectful
of
my
lane.
I
recognize
that
that
you
know
the
town
and
the
county
are
the
ones
that
are
interfacing
with
d.o.t
and
ultimately,
you
guys
are
going
to
be
the
ones
to
make
the
decision,
so
I
want
to
be
respectful
of
that,
but
I,
but
I
have
appreciated
the
opportunity
that
you
all
have
given
me
to
kind
of
be
a
facilitator
and
to
try
to
bring,
because
there
is
some
state
aspects
that
bear
upon
this
too.
F
I
mean
you
know
making
the
argument
to
christie
hall
that
more
funding
ought
to
be
provided
talking
to
john
white
at
the
sieve.
You
know,
you
know,
don't
get
shaky
on
120
million
dollars,
we're
we're
holding
things
together
here,
but
but
I
just
want
to
recognize
my
lane
glenn.
That's
the
only
reason.
Thank
you,
sir.
G
Thank
you.
Yes,
ma'am.
Your
lane
has
been
incredibly
important
to
the
278
corridor
projects.
The
reasonableness
and
the
sensitivity
to
the
wishes
of
the
island
residents
can't
be
understated,
and
I
appreciate
that
respect
it
and
I'm
so
grateful
for
it.
Additionally,
I
just
want
to
pick
up
on
the
idea
of
doing
what
we
can
to
buy
those
development
rights
to
preserve
that
land.
I
think
those
of
us
on
this
council
and
in
staff
who
hear
me
almost
every
day
and
I'm
sorry
for
that.
G
I
echo
those
same
words
here
on
the
island,
and
so
I
think
it's
an
incredibly
important
thing
that
that
you're
talking
about
so
thank
you
I'll
turn
it
over.
H
Senator
first,
thanks
for
all
you
do
you
you're
a
tremendous
resource
to
this
this
community
in
this
county
in
terms
of
the
edc
stoney
area?
If
we're
successful-
and
I
hope
we
are
to
get
those
funds
moving
in
that
direction,
will
they
be
limited
from
a
usage
standpoint
to
stoney,
or
could
they
be
used
also
throughout
the
island,
where
we
may
have
opportunity
to
discover
or
to
celebrate
gullah
culture.
F
I
think
that
would
be
a
decision
for
town
council
to
make
in
regard
to
the
edc,
how
you
defined
it
the
scope
of
its
mission.
You
know
what
what
area
that
you
envisioned
to
be
impacted
by
that
edc.
I
guess
I
refer
to
stony,
because
I
view
that
as
the
most
immediate
thing
in
need
of
protection
because
of
278
but
but
there's
no
reason
whatsoever
and
I'm
not
advocating
for
a
narrow
stone
only
focus
to
edc,
I
think
certainly
it
could
be
broadened
out.
F
However,
town
council
wanted
to
form
it,
and
it's
it's
your.
I
mean
the
way
it
would
be
set
up
and-
and
david
may
know
more
about
this
than
I
do
because
he's
had
some
experience
with
this,
but
it
would
be
a
501
c
3
corporation
and
then
you
would
be
the
the
member
of
or
the
controlling
shareholder,
in
that
501c3
and
you'd.
F
Have
the
board
of
directors
and
you'd
be
the
have
the
ability
in
the
orchestra
corporation
to
define
the
area
that
you
wanted
impacted
and
then
and
then
based
on
how
that's
how
that's
defined.
That
would
then
enable
us,
then,
to
make
our
various
arguments
to
the
general
assembly
about
why
funding
would
be
appropriate.
Thank
you.
Yes,
sir.
I
I
One
was
the
cdc
and
when
we
initially
talked
about
that,
you
almost
instantaneously
understood
the
opportunity
that
that
would
provide
this
island
in
terms
of
mitigation
for
the
stony
area
regarding
the
impacts
of
the
roadway,
the
highway,
but
also
longer
term
the
prosperity
that
could
come
from
that
kind
of
an
organization.
So
I
thank
you
on
that.
I
A
one
cent
sales
tax
to
purchase
development
rights
or
land
outright.
I
stand
absolutely
solidly
with
you
on
that.
We
are
not
going
to
be
able
to
pave
our
way
out
of
what
is
coming
down
the
pike
unless
we
do
something
about
it,
and
thank
you
for
your
leadership
in
that,
and
I
support
it
here
at
the
town
council
and
there.
F
Are
certain
ways
david
that
that
that
I
think
we
could
be
creative
and
conservations
can
be?
Given
I
mean
last
night,
I
was
at
a
planning
commission
meeting
and
they
were
looking
at
the
cooler
cooler
track,
which
is
a
a
a
large
track
of
land
near
old
field,
and
they
were
looking
to
to
triple
their
densities
in
regards
to
developing
that
track,
which
would
further
congest
an
already
very
congested
area
if
you're
familiar
with,
where
that
new
light
is
of
462..
F
But
by
the
same
token,
the
cooler
family
stood
up
there
and
said:
we've
had
this
property
in
our
family
for
130
years.
You've
given
adjacent
property
owners
the
right
to
develop
at
these
densities,
a
matter
of
simple
fairness.
You
ought
to
give
that
right
to
us
and
one
of
the
and
that's
a
fair
point,
and-
and
one
of
the
things
that
occurred
to
me
was
that's
an
excellent
example
of
how
a
rural
and
critical
lands
could
come
in
and
say.
F
If
you
agree
to
down
zone
your
density
to
say
maybe
30
units
for
all
that
land.
You
can
then
take
as
a
charitable
contribution
the
market
value
diminution
by
agreeing
not
to
develop
at
that
higher
density,
that
there
are
creative
ways
we
can
go
about
out
of
this
problem
that
we
can't
address
through
zoning.
The
reason
we
can't
address
it
through
zoning
is
a
lot
of
these
development
agreements
have
already
been
signed.
F
These
development
rights
are
vested
and-
and-
and
I
know
it's
a
terrible
time
to
be
talking
about
a
one
cent-
sales
tax
and-
and
I
may
regret
it,
but
but
but
but
I
think
it
is
time
for
for
us
to
kind
of
at
least
articulate
the
problem
and
let
the
people
south,
let
the
people
of
beaufort
county
decide
what
they
want
to
do.
F
J
Thank
you,
mr
man.
I
echo
my
colleagues
senator
with
you
being
a
partner
along
the
way
we
we
are
so
gracious
to
have
someone
of
your
statue.
J
I
I
want
to
applaud
you
on
on
a
few
things
real
quickly
here
your
ability
to
understand
and
execute
process,
I
think,
is
important,
and
we
thank
you
for
that.
Also,
you
have
this
rare
ability
to
be
bold
when
needed,
and
we
definitely
thank
you
for
that.
That's
important,
okay,
we
argue
back
and
forth
about
politics,
but
at
the
end
of
the
day,
we're
all
representatives.
I
think
you
do
a
very
good
job
with
that,
so
we
thank
you
for
that.
J
I'm
glad
to
hear
that
the
green
space
initiative
has
some
flexibility
within
it.
Okay,
with
developmental
rights,
I
think
that's
important
not
to
necessarily
box
ourselves
in
so
the
creativity
there
is
is
enormous.
I
appreciate
that
also
and
to
my
colleagues
that
have
asked
the
question
about
the
cdc
and
again
thank
you
for
spearheading
some
funding
from
the
state.
On
that
I
know.
Mr
orlando
has
more
to
come
on
that.
J
The
point
is
yes
to
focus
on
stony,
but
not
limit
ourselves
to
justine,
because
the
historic
neighborhoods
around
the
town
are
also
in
need
of
assistance
along
the
way.
So
again,
we
thank
for
your
assistance
in
that,
and
we
just
want
to
make
sure
that
you
feel
welcome,
standing
in
front
of
us
sharing
and
having
a
conversation
with
us
at
any.
F
Time,
thank
you
absolutely
and,
and
one
thing
I
should
mention
too,
in
addition
to
with
the
cdc
or
edc.
However,
you
want
to
ascribe
to
it.
It
also
gives
us
an
ability
to
petition
the
federal
government
in
regard
to
grants.
F
E
Well,
I
don't
know
what
to
say
except
ditto
time.
Seven.
You
know,
of
course
appreciate
all
of
your
your
leadership
and
especially
your
help
of
communicating
on
our
behalf
on
the
county's
behalf
of
the
state.
I
I
do
know
the
project's
better
because
of
you
and
and
then
some
so
I'm
I'm
excited
to
dig
into
this.
This
new
south
carolina
law,
tdr
capability
versus
just
buying
property
is
is,
is
a
game
changer?
I
think,
for
the
state.
F
And
the
other
thing
I
would
say
is
the
way
that
legislation
was
drafted.
It
can
be
up
to
one
percent,
so
you
don't
necessarily
have
to
levy
one
percent,
although
I
would
argue
that
as
warranted.
If
you
wanted
to
blend
it
and
have
it
be
a
half
a
penny
or
a
quarter
of
a
penny
or
whatever
it
was,
and
you
could
also
have
the
ability
if
it
were
lower
to
extend
the
sales
tax
over
a
greater
period
of
time
and
you
could
still
amortize
the
same
amount
of
debt,
so
you've
got
some
flexibility
there.
A
F
I
think
I'll
have
a
better
idea,
mayor
after
next
tuesday,
when
I
make
the
presentation
to
county
council
and
I
get
an
idea
of
just
how
far
downstream
they
are
with
what
they
already
want
to
do.
F
You
know,
and
I
sense
I
say
I
think
I
copy
you
all
with
an
email
that
I
sent
a
couple
weeks
ago
or
three
weeks
ago
as
soon
as
the
law
had
been
passed
and
signed
and
signed
by
governor
mcmaster,
I
sent
it
to
them
because
and
I've
been
telling
them
all
along
that
I
was
working
to
get
this
thing
through.
I
just
got
it
passed
on
the
next
to
last
day
of
session,
and
so,
in
any
event,
I'll
have
a
better
idea
after
that
meeting
where
the
votes
are
in.
F
That
regard,
I'm
going
to
make
the
argument
that
it's
more
appropriate
to
do
an
open
space
penny
than
a
transportation
penny.
But
failing
that
argument,
I'd
like
to
open
up
a
discussion
about
maybe
doing
a
blend
where
maybe
you
have
a
half
a
penny,
for
you
know
prioritizing
certain
road
projects
and
another
half
penny
for
the
other,
because
they're
really
two
sides
of
the
same
coin,
so
I'll
have
a
better
idea.
Next
tuesday,
mr
mayor,
I'm
happy
to
report
back
to
you.
E
E
K
Good
afternoon,
mr
mayor
members
of
council,
mr
orlando,
first
of
all,
on
behalf
of
the
commissioners,
I'd
like
to
thank
teresa
haley
for
the
work
she's
done
for
the
planning
commission
over
the
last
few
years.
I
know
she's
moved
on
to
bigger
and
better
things
and
also
for
the
continuing
and
always
excellent
work
in
siren.
K
I
can
tell
you
that
all
quiet
on
the
planning
front
at
this
point
so
quiet
that
recently
we
feel
like
lifeguards
and
sitting
next
to
an
empty
pool.
You
know
not
much
to
do
but
we're
not
in
over
our
heads,
and
I
want
to
tell
you
that
over
the
past
several
months,
as
you
have
in
your
packet,
I'm
sure
we
accepted
the
report
of
darren
shoemaker
with
regard
to
the
traffic
monitoring
and
evaluation
studies.
K
Also,
with
regard
to
the
capital
improvements
program
fiscal
year,
priority
projects,
the
cip
committee
voted
four
to
nothing
to
move
a
list
of
priority
projects
forward,
and
that
happens
to
be
with
regard
to
the
squire
pope
road
green
shell
park
to
ford
shell
ring
park
with
a
connection
to
the
rowing
and
sailing
center
at
squire
pub
community
park
and
also,
let's
add
south
forest
beach
pathway,
improvements
and
under
pathways,
accessibility
and
safety
enhancement
projects
and
then
move
dillon
road
at
the
william
hilton
parkway
intersection
to
a
top
priority
under
roads.
K
Also,
the
commission
voted
eight
to
zero
to
approve
and
recommended
town
council
proposed
fiscal
year
priority
projects
with
the
following
changes
to
move
the
main
street,
whipping
crane
way
to
wilburn
road
pathway,
project
down
the
pathways
to
priorities
list
and
to
move
the
jonesville
road
pathway
project
up
to
second
place.
In
that
category.
K
E
Hello,
hello,
beaufort
county,
one
cent,
sales,
tax
presentation,
eric
claussen,
our
beaufort
county
director
of
engineering.
Welcome
you
want
to
do
that.
L
Well,
yeah,
not
only
do
I
do.
I
have
to
follow
senator
davis,
but
I'm
also
your
I'm.
The
b
squad
for
for
beaufort
county
I've
been
here
a
total
of
about
six
weeks.
Okay,
so
bear
with
me.
I
I've
been
a
part,
though,
of
of
not
only
sitting
on
some
of
the
tech
committee
meetings
that
beaufort
county
held,
but
also
a
part
of
sales
tax
referendums
for
some
of
the
past
communities
that
I've
been
a
part
of
as
well.
L
So
again,
I
just
want
to
begin
by
thanking
you
all
for
the
partnership
that
you
have
with
beautiful
beaufort
county,
especially
as
we
move
through
the
challenging
project
of
of
us
278
and
again
want
to
thank
senator
davis
for
his
support
through
those
projects
as
well.
L
So
we
we've
taken
on
and
again,
as
senator
davis
had
mentioned,
it's
somewhat
of
a
challenging
time
just
in
society
right
now,
with
gas
prices
and
inflation
and
whatnot,
but
that
doesn't
change
the
fact
that
we're
also
we're
really
at
a
critical
path
to
at
a
crossroads
to
moving
forward
on
some
of
these
transportation
projects.
L
L
From
november
last
year,
county
council
got
together
and
started
discussion
on
the
future
of
a
of
a
new
sales
tax,
seeing
that
the
other
one
was
just
about
at
completing
its
its
total
total
accumulation
of
of
tax
dollars,
which
was
120
million
dollars,
so
that
sales
tax
expired
in
1231
of
of
21,
and
that
was
actually
a
year
earlier
than
anticipated
on
the
collection
of
that
tax.
So
further
discussion
occurred
in
january
of
2022
to
discuss
what
the
future
of
the
sales
tax
would
potentially
look
like.
L
So
on
february,
7
county
council
passed
a
resolution
establish
establishing
a
citizen
committee,
so
the
the
county
commissioned
a
17-member
committee.
L
There
was
one
member
from
each
one
of
the
the
the
11
council
districts
as
well
as
one
member
from
each
of
the
six
municipalities,
so
in
in
hilton,
head
you've
got
district
8,
which
you're
the
representative
was
charles
perry,
district,
10,
morris
campbell,
district
11,
frank
toronto,
and
then
your
your
town
of
hilton,
head
representative
was
pete
christian
so
and
we
we
want
to
thank
them
for
their
input
and
their
their
expertise
that
they
gave
to
the
process
as
well
as
the
chair,
dean
moss.
L
L
This
transportation
advisory
committee
with
three
tasks
number
one
to
come
up
with
projects
to
to
place
on
a
proposed
sales
tax
number
two
define
what
that
sales
tax
amount
was
going
to
be,
and
then
three
lastly,
is
come
up
with
whatever
that
duration
would
potentially
be
so.
The
committee
met
as
I
as
I
mentioned.
It
was
on
tuesday
nights
in
the
evening
for
about
two
and
a
half
months
met
a
lot
at
11
different
occasions.
L
Again,
thank
you
for
thank
you
to
that
committee
for
everything
that
they've
done
to
to
work
through
this.
So
the
initial
discussion
involved
just
some
transportation
planning
discussion.
Where
have
we
been?
What
are
some
of
the
prior
plans
that
we've
used
some
of
the
we're?
Not
we're
not
here,
to
recreate
the
wheel,
we're
here
here
to
build
upon
some
of
those
those
plans
that
have
already
that
are
already
in
place,
namely
the
comprehensive
plan,
the
lats
long-range
transportation
plan,
the
impact
fee
projects
and
the
bicycle
pedestrian
master
plan.
L
And
then
the
other
thing
that
the
tech
committee
looked
at
was
just
the
duration
of
the
tax.
So
what
they
again
not
recreating
the
wheel,
they
went
back
and
they
looked
at
other
counties
throughout
the
state
and
found
that
the
program
links
range
anywhere
from
four
to
25
years.
L
Part
of
it
is
half
of
it
goes
towards
program
projects
and
again,
I
think
the
other
key
piece
to
keep
in
mind
here
is
just
because
this
is
700
million
dollars
that
doesn't
include
the
totality
of
what
this
tax
could
mean,
as
it
could
be
leveraged
with
federal
funds,
state
funds
that
sort
of
thing
so,
while
well,
there's
a
there's
a
pretty
extensive
list
here
and
not
all
of
these
are
necessarily
important
to
the
town
of
hilton
head.
L
I
do
want
to
run
through
them,
just
real,
quick
just
so
that
you
understand
the
comprehensive
nature
that
the
tac
committee
used
as
they
went
through
every
one
of
these
projects,
and
just
so
that
you
appreciate
the
time
and
effort
that
went
into
developing
what
these
these
ultimate
projects
were
so
specific
projects
for
about
335
million
dollars.
First,
we
have
highway
170,
which
again,
as
senator
davis
had
previously
mentioned,
we
we've
got
some
some
traffic
snarls,
obviously
out
on
170.
L
So
this
is
to
look
at
capacity
and
safety
improvements,
basically
from
278
to
462
highway
46
improvements
again.
That
project
means
a
little
bit
more
to
bluffton,
but
again
capacity
and
safety
improvements
on
that
corridor,
but
also
being
cognizant
of
making
sure
that
we
maintain
or
preserve
that
scenic
byway
designation
on
that
particular
route,
the
bluffton
regional
roadway
network,
so
a
number
of
projects
in
the
lats
in
the
lats
long
range
transportation
plan
so
again
just
the
ability
to
for
them
to
facilitate
some
of
those
projects.
L
So
now
we
get
to
the
ones
that
are
are
more
specific
to
to
the
town
of
hilton
head.
We've
got
the
municipal
projects,
so
40
million
dollars
that
is
being
proposed
for
rotary,
surfacing
intersection
improvements
pathways,
as
requested
by
by
the
town
of
hilton
head.
So
again,
there's
you
know
as
far
as
road
resurfacing,
even
in
the
way
of
duro
paving
we're
actually
paving
one
of
hilton
heads
dirt
roads
this
week
on
right
place.
L
So
just
shows
what
some
of
those
some
of
those
tax
dollars
could
potentially
be
used
for
and
then
again
the
bigger
project,
the
highway
278
project,
enhancements
again
between
what
it,
what
has
already
been
done
and
what
is
being
proposed
just
trying
to
again
come
together
and
figure
out
what
what
that
that
correct
balance
is
so
that
we're
meeting
the
needs
of
not
only
the
town
of
hilton
head,
beaufort
county,
but
also
the
traveling
public
and
the
citizens
of
of
the
community,
so
40
million
dollars
again
for
that
one
us
21
and
business
21,
slash
sc
281.
L
So
again,
these
projects
are
really
around
boundary
street
reba,
road,
downtown,
downtown
beaufort,
so
some
improvements
that
we
have
there
75
million
dollars
for
that
and
then
the
ongoing
ladies
island
corridor.
Improvements
proposed
40
40
million
dollars
for
that.
L
So
this
is
the
second.
The
second
piece
of
the
the
pie-
and
this
is
this-
is
really
the
transportation
improvement
program.
So
what
what
these
are
are
different
programs
or
different
pots
of
funding
that
can
be
used
utilized
for
different
needs
in
the
community
as
things
arise.
So
there's
there's
things
that
we
don't
know
of
today.
As
far
as
immediate
safety
concerns
pedestrian
needs,
that
sort
of
thing
that
we
don't
know
today.
L
L
25
million
of
that
is
going
to
mass
transit
to
again
address
some
of
the
congestion
concerns
that
we
have
in
the
community.
It
will
look
at
both
transit
as
well
as
ferry,
accommodations,
50
000
for
safety
improvements
across
the
community,
so
anything
in
the
way
of
pedestrian
safety
turn
lane
improvements,
minor,
intersection
improvements.
That
would
that's
what
would
be
included
there
resiliency
so
again,
as
we
deal
with
flooding
sea
level
rise
that
sort
of
thing.
L
This
gives
us
a
pot
of
funds
to
be
able
to
address
those
needs
throughout
the
community
and
then
dirt
road
paving.
I
think
it
mentioned
that
one
just
a
minute
ago.
This
is
a
primary
need,
especially
in
helena
as
well
as
there
are
still
a
few
derose
here
in
in
the
town
of
hilton
head.
L
Continuing
on
on
the
the
transportation
programs
resurfacing,
we
have
60
million
dollars
for
that
and
again,
that
is
to
bring
up
the
pavement
condition
of
all
roads,
basically
within
the
within
the
county,
whether
they
be
county,
roads,
state,
roads,
municipal
roads,
fifty
thousand
dollars
for
pathways
again,
looking
at
the
needs
of
all
users
for
in
the
system
again
creating
those
pathways,
those
safe,
safe
paths
for
kids
to
get
to
school,
the
safe
paths
for
families
to
be
able
to
walk
in
neighborhoods
transportation
technologies
and
access
roads.
L
Again.
I
think
this
goes
along
with
the
the
sense
of
not
being
able
to
necessarily
build
our
way
out
of
everything.
There
are
additional
technologies
out
there,
though,
and
additional
things
that
we
can
look
at
as
far
as
connecting
connecting
additional
roadways
access
roads,
as
well
as
implementing
some
intelligent
transportation
technology
and
that
sort
of
thing
into
the
system,
county-wide,
so
50
million
dollars
for
that
and
again
to
tie
into
what
senator
davis
had
just
talked
about
with
the
green
belt.
So
we
do
have
a
pot
of
funding
in
here
to
do
just
that.
L
So
the
implementation
recommendations
that
came
from
the
the
tech
committee
was
and
again
the
a
this
is
a,
but
the
subsequent
slides
will
show
what
a
is
pretty
long
here,
advisory
committee
so
basically
similar
to
what
was
what
was
formed
with
the
tax
committee
to
actually
have
a
community-wide
task
force
or
committee
that
meets
talks
through
the
projects.
L
Ask
for
a
make
a
call
for
projects
on
an
annual
basis
again,
in
the
sense
that
we
we
are
being
completely
transparent
with
how
the
funds
are
being
spent,
what
the
how
the
projects
are
proceeding
and
and
that
sort
of
thing.
So
then
we
look
at
programs.
So
this
is
basically
looking
at
each
one
of
these
different
buckets
of
funding
the
committee
along
with
county
and
any
recommendations
we
would
have
from
town
staff
as
well
come
up
with
criteria
to
grade
each
one
of
these
different
each
one
of
these
different
buckets.
L
L
So,
b
on
that
is
issue
bonds,
so
again
get
those
big
projects
out
out
there
and
on
the
street
and
get
them
constructed
just
as
quickly
as
we
possibly
can
green
belts
again
talking
through
that
and
utilizing
rural
and
critical
lands
to
pro
set
priorities
on
where
those
where
those
lands
should
be
purchased
and
then
again,
the
mass
transit
piece,
which
is
really
just
looking
at
alternative
transportation,
to
take
those
cars
off
the
road.
L
So
the
path
forward.
As
what
was
previously
mentioned,
a
resolution
was
adopted
on
the
recommendations
of
the
tag
committee.
It
takes
three
readings
as
well
as
a
public
meeting.
The
first
reading
was
held
on
may
23rd
is
moved
on
to
the
to
the
second
reading.
There
were
a
couple
of
of
county
council
members
that
were
absent
that
day,
so
moved
moved
along
to
a
second
presentation.
L
That's
going
to
occur
this
upcoming
monday,
and
the
final
final
with
the
public
hearing
would
then
be
on
june
27th
if
the
county
council
so
chooses
to
move
forward.
So
really
the
timeline
that
we
have
is
by.
We
have
to
have
the
final
ordinance
sent
to
the
state
by
august.
15Th
for
approval
and
inclusion
and
the
november
ballot.
So
again
that's
really
the
timeliness
of
of
moving
forward
with
basically
all
the
work
that
that
has
been
done
by
the
tech
committee
as
well
as
our
partners.
D
A
lot
of
our
problems
here
and
you
you
have
gotten
some
control
on
those
issues.
No
decision
has
been
made
by
the
county
in
terms
of
putting
it
on
the
ballot
yet
and
it's
a
controversial
subject
and
so
they're
going
to
have
to
make
a
difficult
decision
when
it
gets
to
that.
D
But
assuming
that
the
referendum
is
put
on
the
ballot
and
then
the
tax
is
approved
by
the
citizens,
is
it
contemplated
that
there
would
be
a
lot
of
bonding
against
those
funds
so
that
the
projects
could
start
moving
forward
quickly
or
is
the
plan
to
do
it
over
a
period
of
time?
And
if
so,
how?
Much
time
yeah.
L
The
bit
the
big
projects,
we
are
definitely
wanting
to
bond
again
to
try
to
get
those.
You
know
again,
I
think
in
the
in
the
tech
committee
meeting
there
was
a
and
I'm
gonna,
I'm
gonna
steal
the
steal.
The
phrase
we're
not
behind
the
eight
ball,
we're
under
the
a
ball
so
again
we're
there's,
there's
been
so
much
growth,
there's
been
so
much
influx
has
come
into
the
community.
That
again,
we
want
to
make
sure
that
we
get
those
big
projects
out
there
so
that
we
have
that
immediate
benefit
to
the
community.
D
You
have
a
real
opportunity
to
work
with
senator
davis
and
the
program
that
he's
gotten
through
the
state
legislature,
and
I
think
it
would
be
vital
that
county
and
the
state
work
together
on
that
and
come
up
with
a
way
to
split
that
penny
so
that
it
doesn't
seem
such
an
impact
to
the
citizens.
So
I'll
look
forward
to
your
reports
on
that.
Thank
you
for
an
excellent
report.
Thank
you.
Yummy.
G
Thank
you
and
welcome.
Thank
you.
I
think
the
committee
did
a
great
job.
I
appreciate
and
respect
all
of
the
time
they
spent
putting
this
together.
G
A
penny
tax
in
this
area
is
not
something
that
I'm
in
favor
of,
and
so
for
many
reasons.
So
I
don't
really
have
much
more
to
say
about
that,
but
anyone's
interested
to
know
those
other
reasons.
I'm
happy
to
talk
later.
Thank
you.
H
L
Yes
and
and
there's
there
are
multiple
opportunities
moving
forward
with
the
transportation
infrastructure
bill.
You
know
there
there's
additional
federal
funding,
that's
going
to
become
available
and
we're
currently
researching
that
right
now
to
be
prepared
to
to
again
leverage
funding.
Thank
you
david.
Thank
you.
C
M
I
I
I
instinctively
react
to
what
the
community,
what
the
county
is
going
to
look
like
when
that
700
million
dollars
has
been
spent
and
in
some
ways
I
shudder.
So
how
do
you
mitigate
that?
Has
there
been
any
conversation
on
the
part
of
county
council
that
we
need
to
have
a
different
attitude
towards
up
zoning
or
to
restricting
zoning
in
some
ways
that
might
change
the
calculus
of
need
for
transportation,
transportation
and
land
use?
Zoning
are
connected
and
oftentimes,
we
spend
money,
but
we
don't
change
our
attitude
towards
how
we
use
land.
L
We
would
really
like
to
have
basically
a
community-wide
traffic
impact
analysis
that
basically
each
each
one
of
the
munici
agencies,
municipalities,
county,
would
use
one
of
the
same
same
traffic
engineering
groups
to
be
able
to
look
and
assess
what
those
impacts
are.
L
I
mean,
I
think,
between
that,
and
just
long-range
planning
is
really
what,
where
we
go,
that,
coupled
with
the
fact
that
you
know
again
trying
to
preserve
these
areas
so
that
they're,
so
that
we
don't
have
dense
development
in
these
in
these
untouched
areas,
I
think
is,
is
key
to
that
as
well.
Yeah.
I
J
C
J
I'm
a
pick
up
on
where
councilman
ames
was
was
going.
You
know,
as
we
age
and
start
to
have
problems
with
our
arteries.
You
can
go
in,
you
can
get
them
unclogged,
you
can
put
a
stem
in
or
you
can
change
your
diet.
J
J
J
J
That
tells
me
that
technology
has
taken
us
to
another
place,
so
the
whole
one
person
per
call
attitude
will
at
some
point
go
away.
J
The
green
space
initiative,
I
think,
is
something
that
should
be
more
of
a
top
priority
versus
the
pavement
piece,
so
they
sent
you
that's
at
least
one
message
that
I
want
to
make
sure
that
you
hear
loud
and
clear:
yeah.
L
From
us,
okay,
well,
I
you
know,
I
I
do
think
that
that
is
it's
a
balance,
because
I
you
know
again.
I
I
completely
agree
on
the
green
space
piece,
but
I
think
we
already
have
some
issues
out
there
right
now
that
we're
going
to
have
to
at
least
have
some
kind
of
of
way
and
mechanism
to
be
able
to
address
those.
So
I
agree
with
you.
I
think
that
there
there's
a
balance
there
and
again,
not
only
utilizing.
L
J
E
As
a
council
member,
I
appreciate
being
here,
I
think,
we're
all
hearing
a
lot
that
you
know
acquiring
development
rights,
transferring
development
rights
to
to
really
balance
balance.
The
issues
are
obvious.
We
see
what
the
transportation
issues
are
intersections
going
to
school
are,
are
some
big
ones
on
our
island?
So
I
appreciate
in
your
first
six
weeks
you
hit
the
ground
running.
I've
heard
a
lot
of
good
things
about
you
and
obviously
them
to
be
true.
So
welcome.
D
A
L
We're
taking
nothing
back,
I
feel
like
at
this
point.
This
is
really
just
education.
You
know
there
there
is
the
the
timing
on
this
is.
Is
you
know
if
we
were
if
we
were
looking
for
necessarily
a
recommendation
moving
forward?
You
know,
I
think
that
would
that
would
definitely
be
welcome,
but
I
also
understand
that
there's
questions
that
are
out
there
and
we're
only
about
six
days
or
so
away
from
them
meeting
and
probably
ultimately
deciding
the
the
fate
of
the
fate
of
this
this
referendum.
L
So
you
know
again,
I
think
that
we
would.
I
believe
that
the
the
tag
committee
would
appreciate
support,
but
I
also
understand
that,
under
the
the
circumstances
that
you
know,
there's
there's
not
a
whole
lot
of
time
and
there's
some
other
things
going
on
in
the
world
today.
That
may
impact
that.
A
I
I
A
G
So
it
just
seems
to
all
fit
together
and
was
on
my
intended
comments,
but
I
just
want
to
ask
our
council
and
town
manager
and
staff
to
begin
to
set
as
a
priority
how
we
look
at
the
development
on
hilton
head.
G
The
land
acquisition
piece
of
it
is
obviously
development.
Rights
is
obviously
an
important
part
of
that
discussion,
but
also
how
our
lmo
sets
up
the
standards
and
the
requirements
for
code
and
approval.
I
think
that,
as
we're
moving
forward,
we
need
to
have
in
place
what
is
a
better
standard
of
development
for
the
island
than
we
currently
have,
and
we
see
that
result
all
around
us
on
the
island.
It
speaks
to
the
overbuilding
old
over
development
and
the
so
both
the
quality
and
the
quantity.
G
So
I
just
wanted
to
make
that
a
formal
request
that
we
set
that
as
a
priority
today.
D
D
There,
which
is
designed
for
handicapped
viewing
of
an
enjoyment
of
the
beach
which
is
wonderful,
and
it's
really
feels
good
when
the
town
is
challenged
by
a
group
of
citizens
who
are
concerned
about
an
issue
when
they
come
back
and
they
say.
Thank
you
for
a
job.
Well
done.
So
thank
you
for
a
job
well
done.
D
Mr
glenn,
so
the
lats
did
not
meet
since
our
last
meeting,
so
I
have
no
report
full
country.
I
I
It's
its
mission
is
basically
greeting
guiding
and
answering
questions
of
the
many
people
who
come
through
the
terminal,
and
I'd
also
like
to
report
that
the
summer
schedule
is
less
intense
this
year
due
to
the
airline's
pilot
crew
shortages,
so
the
terminal
is
not
as
crowded
as
it
was
last
year.
Thank.
H
Thank
you,
mr
mayor.
The
committee
has
been
meeting
and
will
be
coming
before
town
council
at
our
next
session,
with
recommendations
for
the
bca
and
for
the
parks
commission,
as
well
as
for
various
other
commissions.
Thank
you
very
much.
N
B
Yes,
sir,
first
on
our
parents
by
citizens-
sorry
I
wasn't
prepared
is
bob
elliot,
sir.
N
N
Each
nurse
that
we're
able
to
attract
and
retain
on
our
program
now
will
care
for
eight
to
ten
thousand
patients
per
year.
That's
every
nurse
studies
show
that
the
that
increasing
the
staffing
levels
in
the
hospitals
and
health
care
providers
improves
the
quality
of
care
and
patient
outcome
and
obviously
a
robust
health
care
system
is
critical
to
support
economic
development
in
our
local
businesses.
N
N
N
One
final
note:
on
a
personal
note,
I
just
want
to
tell
you
how
much
your
support
has
meant
to
me
personally
and
to
our
committee.
It
has
reinforced
that
we're
on
the
right
track
that
we've
identified
a
need
that
resonates
within
the
community
and
can
obtain
financial
support.
So
thank
you
again.
Thank
you
very
much.
Chris.
J
Mr
mayor,
could
I
just
indulge
me
for
one
moment
now.
Let
me
just
walk
some
thoughts,
so
I'm
trying
to
make
this
relative,
not
a
question.
I
just
want
to
make
a
comment:
you're
good.
Thank
you,
mr
elliot.
J
I
attended
a
job
fair
a
few
weeks
ago
over
at
ace,
and
we
all
know
that
ace
has
a
variety
of
programs
there,
but
one
of
them
is
a
nursing
program
and
it
was
so
exciting
and
promising
to
see
over
a
dozen
young
ladies
and
their
scrubs
so
proud
to
be
in
that
program,
and
the
one
thing
that
was
going
through
my
mind
was
once
they
graduate
from
high
school
once
they
go
on
to
uscb.
J
B
Yes,
sir,
mr
eric
somerville,
mr
summerville.
O
And
lady
tamara
good
to
see
you
all
again,
john,
I
got
here
a
little
bit
late
sat
down
and
got
uncomfortable.
I
forgot
how
fast
you
won
a
meeting.
I
thought
I
might
have
missed
it.
Hurry
up,
I'm
watching
the
clock
any
event,
I'm
here
to
talk
a
little
bit
about
the
bridge
and
I'm
happy
to
send
a
full
white
paper
on
some
of
the
comments
I
make
if
you're
interested
to
know
some
more
items.
O
So
I've
got
a
little
bit
of
an
outline
and
I
think
you
have
a
folder
with
the
page
one
in
page
one,
okay
million
dollars
for
simulated
for
traffic
simulation.
That
seems
awfully
high
to
me.
I
was
wondering
if
there
was
a
competitive
bid
and
I'm
not
going
to
cover
things
in
a
lot
of
detail,
because
the
last
one
will
be
much
more.
Informative
item
number
two:
2.74
million
dollars
million
dollars
million
visitors
travel
here
each
year.
O
O
I
would
recommend
that
we
also
put
toll
booths
over
the
bridge,
just
as
we
paid
for
the
traffic
the
bridge
for
cross
island,
we're
going
to
pay
for
the
bridge,
we're
going
to
pay
something,
let's
collect
some
money
and
I
don't
mean
toll
booths.
I
mean
a
tall
watcher
from
the
top
down
to
the
hottest
point.
I
think
I
bring.
If
I
did
my
math
right,
we
get
all
the
traffic
we
get
already
it's
already
coming
in.
It
just
gets
you
a
little
bit
slower.
O
If
you
measure
that
out
from
the
museum,
honey
horn
out
you
go
out
to
about
the
oakland
yelt
house,
that's
15
miles
of
traffic
within
that
traffic
would
be
the
space
at
30
foot
per
car
and
spacing
between
cars,
2
640
cars.
That's
one
lane
going
30
miles
an
hour
if
it
could
manage
to
go
at
that
speed,
which
the
bridge
will
try
to
do
that
fills
one
full
lane
on
our
island.
O
Two
lanes
filled
two
lanes
on
our
island.
Full
three
lanes
would
exceed
what
our
island
could
even
hold
so
bottom
line.
Is
you
have
to
park
them
as
fast
as
you
get
them
here
or
you're
gonna
have
a
big
traffic
jam
on
hill
that
we
can't
they
can't
get
out
of
the
wrong
way
good
to
see
you
again.
Thank
you
very
much
mark.
Thank
you.
Thank
you,
sir.
M
Good
afternoon,
I'm
addressing
the
council
on
behalf
of
the
8226
hilton
head
residents
and
concerned
individuals
who
have
through
today
signed
the
petition
requesting
that
an
independent
traffic
engineering
consulting
group
be
hired
by
the
town
of
hilton
head
to
perform
a
truly
independent
analysis
of
our
situation
and
provide
their
best
recommendation
as
to
how
to
best
solve
our
peak
traffic
flow
issues.
I
simply
want
to
list
as
a
reminder
what
we,
the
residents,
would
ask
the
town
council
members
who
are
elected
by
us
to
accomplish
going
forward
at
this
point.
M
I
have
here
to
place
into
the
record
a
draft
statement
of
work
that
has
been
created
by
our
local
technical
working
group,
which
we
believe
will
communicate
exactly
what
we're
looking
for
for
the
winning
consultant
to
accomplish
number
three.
We
ask
that
the
town
of
hilton
head
working
in
conjunction
with
the
town
of
bluffton
beaufort
county
and
the
scdot
immediately
select
a
provider
of
adaptive,
ai
and
satellite,
driven
state-of-the-art
traffic
signal
systems
and
implement
the
technology
starting
at
the
buck,
walter
traffic
signal
and
extending
all
the
way
to
coligny
circle
number.
Four.
M
We
believe
it's
imperative
that
a
technical
working
group
comprised
of
hilton
head
residents
be
established
and
participate
in
all
phases
of
the
278
corridor
project
tasks
going
forward.
The
members
of
this
groups
are
are
also
willing
to
provide
assistance
to
town
government
employees,
because
we
are
well
aware
that
the
multiple
phases
of
the
work
entailed
to
accomplish
even
just
the
three
steps
described
above,
represent
a
gargantuan
task.
We,
the
residents
of
hilton
head
island,
are
looking
forward
to
working
with
you
on
town
government.
M
We
ask
that
the
management
of
the
project
remains
centralized
here
with
the
government
of
hilton
head
rather
than
the
county.
Finally,
on
behalf
of
these
8
200
plus
town
residents,
I
would
like
to
convey
our
heartfelt
thanks
to
senator
tom
davis
for
understanding
the
concerns
of
the
hilton
head
citizenry
and
for
being
such
a
wonderful
supporter
and
champion
of
what
we
perceive
to
be
the
best
interests
of
the
future
of
the
island.
Thank
you
for
your
time.
Thank
you
very
much.
B
Christian,
yes,
lastly,
is
mr
hoagland
skip
hoagland.
B
P
Just
keep
going,
don't
don't
please
don't
interrupt
me.
I
had
some
my
time.
I
don't
push
you
don't
interrupt
me
just
go
ahead.
I
can
do
whatever
I
want.
I
said
that
well
I
can
do
whatever
I
can
say
whatever
I
want
as
well.
I'm
just
saying
do
not
start
the
clock.
Please
don't
start,
please
put
the
clock
back.
I
just
asked
he
interrupted
me.
He
did
not.
Let
me
finish.
Please
start
the
clock
back
start.
Please
move
on
the
clock.
P
P
Congratulations!
Council!
Once
again,
you
unanimously
approve
more
tax
funds
to
bill
miles
in
the
chamber
to
continue
to
rob
our
community
blind.
How
is
it
possible,
when
miles
told
all
of
you
that
his
use
of
tax
money
with
his
secret
sauce
and
none
of
your
business?
Why
is
council
continuing
to
subsidize
this
unlawful
behavior?
Yes,
a
lawsuit
is
forthcoming.
You
will
all
be
held
liable
for
knowingly
issuing
millions
to
a
non-profit
organization.
You
knew
was
illegal.
I
look
forward
to
your
depositions.
P
Only
three
of
you
commented
on
why
chamber
funding
should
be
approved
in
total
disregard
for
the
law
that
was
ames,
brown
and
lennox.
It
was
so
obvious,
planned
and
rehearsed.
This
council
was
controlled
like
puppets
by
the
town
lawyers.
You
just
rubber
stamp.
Everything
alex
you
voted.
Yes,
why
would
you
do
this
with
no
accounting,
no
foia
and
proven
illegal
tax
use?
I
understand.
P
Mitchellville's
funding
is
important
to
the
native
gullah
island
community,
who
I
have
supported
for
47
years.
However,
ahmad
ward,
who
runs
this
project,
is
corrupted
and
on
a
cha
and
sits
on
the
chamber
board
hand-picked
by
bill
miles
and
also
on
this
mitchellville
board
is
grifter
carlton
dallas,
simultaneously
head
of
the
secret
greater
island
council
who
took
crook,
glenn
sanford's
place,
then
at
the
town's
request,
dallas
submitted
a
plan
to
help
bill
miles
and
the
town
avoid
my
foia
compliance
that
the
supreme
court
ruled
that
this
town
must
provide
alex.
P
You
said
you
agree
with
everything
david
ames
said
on
video
ames
lied,
there
are
no
fr,
there
are
no
fraudulent
chamber,
metrics
alex
was
only
law
and
accounting.
The
most
sickening
was
smooth
talking
david
ames,
lengthy,
heartfelt
syrupy,
slop
speech,
pre-drafted
and
scheme
to
prey
on
the
audience.
Emotions
versus
offering
facts
and
law.
Ames
purposely
avoided
legitimate
criticism
and
allegations
of
fraud
and
money
laundering.
By
miles
it
was
obvious.
His
intent
was
to
manipulate
the
press
and
community
with
a
speech
he
knew
was
bogus.
P
Ames
is
all
hat,
and
no
cattle
and
predictably
shyster
tom
lennox
slobbered
over
atax
chairman
lawyer,
jim
fluka
fluker,
yet
another
appointed
crook
and
lackey
for
town
council
and
bill
miles.
My
lawyers
have
the
evidence
that
lennox
and
ames
led
the
fraudulent
drafting
of
the
chamber
dmo
contract.
They
both
showed
her
responsibility
and
liability
for
this
fraud
and
the
town
lawyer,
coltrane
and
bluffton
lawyer
terry
finger
drafted
this
illegal
chamber
contract
to
allow
ongoing
theft
of
tax
money
with
zero
accounting
provisions.
P
Yes,
we
all
got
the
middle
finger
from
terryfinger.
This
is
the
largest
non-profit
chamber,
tax
scam
in
south
carolina
history,
and
it
must
end
so
I
ask
again
for
compliance
my
atax
foia
alex
tamara.
Are
you
going
to
comply
to
the
supreme
court
ruling
that
says
you
have
to
get
the
money
from
the
chamber?
I
mean
the
the
accounting
on
where
all
the
money
went,
the
millions
to
hand
to
me
and
everybody
in
this
room
of
what
he
did
with
our
money.
Are
you
going
to
do
it?
A
Okay,
comedy's
over,
let's
go
move
on
to
the
consent
agenda.
We
have
two
items
on
a
consent
to
gender.
If
there
are
no
changes
to
the
any
of
those
two
items,
we
will
just
take
a
vote
and
move
on
move
for
approval.
Second,
any
question:
anybody
hold
baby:
please
raise
the
right
hand
done
okay,
new
business
in
2019,
where
we
appointed
the
278
gateway
corridor
committee.
A
A
It
is
now
time
to
dissolve
the
committee,
move
all
the
responsibility
and
work
to
the
town
council
to
work
with
the
county
council
on
completing
this
project
david.
I
can't
thank
you
and
your
team
enough,
because
I've
done
an
outstanding
job
took
a
lot
of
heat
in
the
beginning
for
a
long
way,
but
I
appreciate
all
the
work
you've
done
and
I'm
glad
you're
all
here
today.
We
truly
appreciate
it.
A
Q
I
well
first
of
all
thank
you
when
I
about
a
month
into
the
process,
I
got
a
letter
and
it
has
a
psalm
on
the
front
of
it
from
the
bible
in
the
letter
it
says,
dear
mr
johnson,
thank
you
so
very
much
for
your
willingness
to
listen
and
to
consider
the
stuart
family's
concerns
as
they
relate
to
the
278
throughway.
Q
Q
But
to
me
that
sort
of
gave
me
and
the
committee,
I
think,
hope
that
you
know
there's
a
lot
of
contentiousness
on
this
thing.
There's
a
lot
of
different
viewpoints,
and
yet
most
of
the
people
have
believed
in
the
process,
and
I
feel
like
the
process
has
been
a
good
one.
So
I
want
to
I
want
to
thank
you
all
for
your
for
your
confidence
in
setting
up
the
committee.
It
was
an
honor
to
serve.
I
want
to
thank
the
the
committee
who
worked
so
hard
and
the
staff
who
worked
harder.
Q
But
I
also
want
to
thank
the
the
public
who
came,
and
this
is
the
reason
I
read
the
letter
is
because
there
are
a
lot
of
different
sides
and
I
don't
envy
your
position,
but
I
think
that
with
the
inputs
from
all
the
sides
that
it
brought
and
we've
had
at
least
one
independent
engineer
that
has
has
complied
on
this
and
looks
like
we're
going
to
get
another,
and
that
came
from
people
who
were
who
were
many
of
them,
who
felt
like
we
weren't
doing
enough,
and
I
feel
like
that.
Q
A
A
G
I
just
wanted
to
also
extend
my
personal
thank
you
to
the
entire
group.
I
sat
in
as
a
someone
in
the
audience
watching
and
listening
carefully
to
the
discussions
and
they
were
thoughtful
and
considerate
of
the
process,
the
the
goals,
the
principles
that
were
developed-
and
I
know
you
put
your
heart
and
souls
in
it.
Thank
you.
A
E
Yes,
sir
three
items
as
referenced
on
the
agenda:
one
personnel
matters
regarding
creation
and
appointments
to
boards
and
commissions
regarding
island,
rec,
association,
board,
north
point,
public
private
partnership,
housing
advisory
committee,
as
well
as
legal
advice
concerning
pending,
claim
on
attorney-client
privilege,
privilege
as
it
relates
to
circle
center
and
one
last
one
as
it
pertains
to
issues
regarding
sale
or
purchase
of
property
in
the
newport
drive
area.
H
A
P
Yes,
we
all
got
the
middle
finger.
Lastly,
controller
cpa,
john
troyer,
once
forensically
audited,
will
reveal
crimes
such
as
embezzlement,
payoffs
laundering,
facilitating
illegal
funding
with
other
insiders,
steve
reilly,
the
past
30-year
town
manager
and
mark
orlando.
Once
this
forensic
audit
is
complete,
I
predict
will
be
arrested
and
prosecuted
based
on
the
private
investigations
and
information
already
provided
by
scwatchdog.com.
P
Please
note
an
interesting
fact:
never
in
the
300
year,
history
of
south
carolina
or
the
entire
united
states,
when
forensic
audits
were
forced
escaped
they
never
they
did
not.
They
escaped
wrongdoing
and
waste
being
discovered
and
much
of
the
time
prison
was
a
result.
P
It's
a
known
fact
higher,
cookie
cutter
financial
audits
only
show
the
numbers
insiders
want
you
to
see
and
by
designed
to
hide
crimes,
only
forensic
audits,
identify
crimes
and
waste.
That's
a
fact:
I'm
currently
calling
for
forensic
audits
on
the
following
to
begin
all
town
and
county
managers,
their
cpas
and
their
lawyers,
who
have
been
proven
and
caught
with
excessively
billing
us
for
legal
fees.
P
That's
coltrane
and
his
predecessor
alfred.
We
got
an
article
on
that.
We
got
all
the
information
on
his
robbery,
school
district
and
the
cpas
and
their
officials,
all
tax-funded
non-profits
and
chambers
of
commerce,
cbbs
and
higher
dmos,
and
then
all
other
institutions
to
follow.
We
have
proof
that
they're
illegally
being
issued
money
by
all
of
you
and
illegally
using
money.
P
P
Much
thank
you
very
much
appreciate
that
respect.
It's
time
to
clean
up
it's
time
to
clean
up,
not
the
beautiful
swamp
where
nice
creatures
live,
but
the
cesspool
of
incestuous
baton
passing
backslapping
back
room
dealing,
lying
stealing,
incompetent
corruption.
We
have
been
dealing
with
in
beaufort
county
for
50
years,
since
I've
lived
here.
This
has
got
to
end.
We
look
to
you
people
to
follow
your
and
abide
by
your
campaign
promises
we
people
are
hungry,
for
you
all
to
be
honest
and
to
make
people
abide
by
the
laws.
P
R
R
Greeley
I
live
in
hilton
head
and
then
my
other
one
is,
I
don't
know
I
forget
my
other
one.
R
A
J
A
P
Yeah
I'd
like
to
run
over
respectfully
asked
if
I
could
run
over
a
little
bit
on
this,
but
before
you
start
the
clock,
I
talked
to
kristen.
I
respectfully
asked
before
you
start
my
time
that
I
want
to
submit
five
studies.
I'm
trying
to
help
y'all
I'm
trying
to
help
like
tom
davis.
P
And
I'll
get
her
to
make
copies
of
these.
This
study
that
I've
that
I've
hired
somebody
to
put
together
for
me
and
and
I'll
pay
the
copying
costs.
I
have
no
problem
with
that.
P
So
just
let
me
read
what's
in
this
study,
because
it's
important
everybody
hears
this,
and
I
want
this
on
video
jekyll
island
master
plan,
south
carolina
master
plan
communities
short
on
workers,
resort
town
has
stopped
marketing
the
tourists,
unsustainable
tourism,
carrying
capacity,
small
town,
america
facing
big
city
problems
and
why
tourists
rule
in
the
very
places
that
they
visit
with
traffic
and
over
capacity
and
traffic.
So
I'm
going
to
give
this
to
krista
and
I'm
going
to
come
back
with
mike.
P
P
We
don't
need
a
redevelopment
strategy
or
a
character
visioning.
We
need
an
entire
island
master
land
plan.
We
have
never
developed.
Thank
you,
mr
harkins,
for
that
I
have
lived
on
hilton
head
for
47
years
and
I'm
sorry
south
carolina
d.o.t
and
the
corridor
committee
and
our
entire
island
community
has
ended
up
in
this
unbearable
traffic
situation
for
all
residents,
tourists,
business
owners
and
their
workers.
P
It
has
in
fact
caused
many
accidents,
life-threatening
situation
for
windmill
harbor
residents
and
native
island
islanders
living
on
278.,
charles
frazier's
vision
for
low-density
high-end
resort,
retirement
community
has
been
destroyed
and
unfortunately,
there
are
no
real
good
solutions.
Nor
have
I
ever
heard
of
any
fact
is.
We
have
been
placed
in
this
situation
by
our
30-year
town
manager,
steve
reilly
and
kicked
the
can
down
the
road
politicians.
P
P
Gated
communities
have
mastered
land
plans,
but
not
hardyville,
bluffton,
buford
and
they're
all
heading
the
same
way
as
hilton
head
land
plan
was
needed
30
years
ago,
when
we
had
two
pounds
in
a
five
pound
bag,
not
waiting
till
we
have
six
pounds
in
a
five
pound
bag
and
we're
heading
to
ten
pounds
in
a
five
pound
bag.
We
can't
fix
where
we
are
only
if
force
officials
like
y'all
to
do
a
master
land
plan
now
to
stop
ten
pounds
in
a
five
pound
bag.
How
much
more
can
we
stand?
P
Folks?
We
have
one
bridge,
one
road,
all
the
way
to
I-95
and
we
have
all
been
handed
this
overflowing
bag
caused
by
steve,
reilly,
lisa,
selka
and
others.
Unfortunately,
there's
no
good
fix
firing,
steve
riley,
is
something
I
call
for
many
years
ago.
Now
we
end
up
with
another
insider
and
I'm
sorry
mark
crooked
from
bluffton
mark
orlando
and
lawyer
group
are
from
buford
it's
just
baton,
passing
we
needed
outside
people
new
blood.
P
P
P

Lastly,
this
is
a
big
thing
for
me,
because
I'm
a
fisherman,
I'm
a
hunter,
I'm
an
outdoorsman,
that's
why
I
moved
here
47
years
ago.
Lastly,
the
environmental
damage
caused
by
the
overflowing
five
pound
bag
has
caused
severe
pollution
to
our
environment.
Like
the
may
river
broad
creek,
our
estuaries,
where
we
oysters
and
shrimp
and
all
the
things
we
did
alex
and
his
family
going
back,
it
took
millions
of
years
to
create
what
we
have
here.
We
have
destroyed
it.
I've
witnessed
it.
P
I
know
it
for
a
fact,
because
I've
lived
it,
we
have
destroyed
it
in
30
years
and
there's
no
turning
back
and
it's
a
damn
shame
it's
like
a
slow,
growing
cancer.
You
know
that
I
can
go
to
the
doctor
today.
He'll
say
skip,
you
got
cancer
on
your
hand.
He
said
it's
not
going
to
kill
you
today,
but
if
you
don't
remove
it,
it's
going
to
eventually
kill
you.
P
This
is
where
we've
ended
up.
So
I
ask
you
all
bill
you're,
the
one
when
I
heard
you
say
that
I
went
boom
bill.
You
said
it:
we've
never
had
a
master
land
plan
and
it's
just
criminal
that
we
have
not
controlled
what
we're
under
up
against.
I
beg
y'all
for
everybody
that
lives
here,
your
families,
your
friends
and
for
yourselves
y'all
getting
caught
in
traffic.
Just
like
we
do.
You
know
we
just
crapped
in
our
back
backyard
and
we
need
to
try
to
do
the
best
we
can
to
clean
it
up.
H
Handle
yes,
mr
mayor,
if
I
may
there,
there
are
three
motions
for
council
consideration.
The
first
motion
is
to
move
to
approve
a
resolution
authorizing
the
creation
of
north
point
public
private
partnership,
housing
advisory
committee.
Second,.
