B

Okay,
we
do
have
an
agenda.
That's
before
us,
and
I
would
like
to
entertain
a
motion
to
approve
the
agenda
to
set
before
us.
B
They
have
some
minutes
from
the
October
10th
meeting
and
if
there
are
no
revisions
of
questions,
I'd
like
to
ask
for
a
motion
to
approve
the
minutes
from
our
October
10th
meeting
as
well,
Mr
Malik
makes
the
motion
Mr
Campbell
has
the
second
okay,
all
those
in
favor.
Please
show
about
raising
your
hand.
B
That
carries
unanimously.
Thank
you
very
much.
B
B
In
the
absence
of
having
someone
in
that
position,
so
so
many
times,
we
have
a
lot
of
hard
work
for
our
staff.
To
do.
I
just
want
to
take
a
moment,
as
we
approach
the
end
of
this
year,
to
acknowledge
our
staff
and
what
they
do.
Certainly
under
the
leadership
of
Missy
lewitt.
B
Our
plan
B,
it's
good
to
have
people
who
are
working
on
the
items
that
we
have
set
forth
in
this
task
force,
and
certainly
I,
want
to
acknowledge
my
colleagues
and
for
your
participation
and
the
discussions
and
being
very
thoughtful
and
mindful
of
what
we're
tasked
to
do.
I
want
to
officially
welcome
Miss
Joyce
Wright
back
to
our
task
force.
It's
good
to
have
you
here
and
you've
already.
Given
me
some
good
energy
and
some
good
ideas
and
I
really
appreciate
that
that
input
as
well
and
it's
along
with
the
rest
of
my
colleagues.
B
Thank
you
for
your
time
and
attention,
and
certainly
I,
do
not
want
to
leave
out
any
of
our
elected
officials
who
may
be
present
and
attend
these
meetings
and
for
what
they
do
for
some
of
the
work
that
we
do
at
this
level.
I'll
be
moving
on
to
the
next
level.
We
appreciate
their
support
as
well
and,
of
course,
our
public
and
those
of
you
who
are
in
the
public
who
take
the
time
to
come
out
to
these
meetings
or
pay
attention
to
them
online.
B
B
B
H
H
We
made
it
through
the
cultural
preservation
of
progress
items,
as
well
as
the
Ayers
property
progress
items
and
we
made
it
through
pp4
of
the
public
policy
section.
What
is
included
on
the
slides
is
the
same
information,
that's
included
in
the
the
larger
critical
path
and
progress
tracking
document
that
is
in
your
packet.
H
We
could
skip
ahead
and
go
through
the
slides
that
we
missed
in
the
public
policy
section.
We
have
not
made
a
lot
of
advancement
on
these
items
in
the
last
several
months,
so
the
information
is
still
the
same
again
that
was
included
in
the
September
packet,
so
I
can
go
ahead
and
go
through
those
slides,
there's
a
lot
of
information.
It
is
also
the
same
information
that
was
included
in
the
report
that
is
in
your
packet.
So
I
just
wanted
to
hear
from
you
how
you
wanted
to
handle
that
I
know.
H
B
So
at
that
last
meeting,
as
Missy
said,
we
did
have
a
presentation
working
through
the
supplies.
You
guys,
okay,
if
we
just
start
from.
Maybe
that
point
you
do.
You
do
have
what
we
did
last,
but
well
back
in
September
in
your
packet
it'll.
Give
you
a
little
more
time
to
digest
it
if
you,
if
you're
okay
with
that,
okay
great,
thank
you
missy.
H
H
H
Review
this
was
this
was
a
question
that
was
brought
up
two
months
ago
by
Mr
hens,
when
we
were
going
through
the
large
critical
path
and
progress
tracking
document
and
spent
about
an
hour
going
through.
All
of
that,
and
he
asked
well
what
does?
What
does
you
know?
Implementation
of
this
plan
look
like
what
does
it
feel
like
and
so
I
said
we
would
at
our
next
meeting,
take
a
look
at
the
project.
Purpose
from
this
document
make
sure
that
it
still
resonates
with
us
and
talk
about
it.
H
So
from
the
report.
This
is
the
project
purpose.
It
actually
is
two
goes
on
to
two
slides,
and
so
the
purpose
statement
again
for
this
report
that
we've
been
working
for
a
couple
years
now
to
implement
is
as
follows.
A
century
ago
Hilton
Head
Island
was
dominated
by
the
galagichi
people
because
of
years
of
geographic
and
social
isolation,
they're,
just
distinct
culture
reflects
their
West
African
roots
in
many
ways,
including
language
crafts,
food
waves,
storytelling
Traditions,
farming,
fishing
and
relationship
to
the
land.
H
We
still
have
to
lift
that
up
fully,
but
I
think
that
will
create
a
better
Baseline
understanding
level
for
Town
employees
and
officials
to
just
understand
the
culture
and
the
history
of
what
was
here
before.
Maybe
we've
new
employees
have
come
to
the
island,
and
you
have
to
really
understand
where
you've
been
to
understand
where
you're
going
so
I
think
that
particular
program
is
going
to
be
really
important
to
celebrate
and
acknowledge
all
that's
come
before.
H
Also
when
I
look
at
the
public
policy
section,
certainly
it
it
is
working
to
resolve
some
of
the
some
of
the
purpose
that
was
included
in
this
statement
prior
to
so
we're
talking
about
opportunities
for
economic
development.
We're
talking
about
land
preservation
and
we're
talking
about
kind
of
preserving
the
goligichi
culture
and
land
ownership
and
then
also
as
far
as
airs
property.
H
There
are
a
number
of
programs
and
initiatives
that
the
town
has
already
worked
to
put
into
place,
and
certainly
that
would
remove
some
of
those
barriers
to
development
or
other
economic
opportunities
or
threats
to
those
properties
and
ownership
of
those
properties.
So,
if
we're
able
to
resolve
like
all
three
of
those
program,
areas,
I
think
you
would
see
a
really
healthy,
Dynamic
culture,
that
celebrated
on
the
island
and
appreciated
by
all
those
that
visit
and
and
live
here.
So
that's
kind
of
what
I
see
it
looking
like.
H
If
this
is
fully
implemented
and
I
would
like
to
hear
from
you
as
to
does
this
purpose
statement
in
this
document
or
how
you
see
you
know,
what
does
success
look
like
is
really
what
I
think
this
agenda
item
is
for
so
and
thank
you
Mr.
Hence,
for
bringing
this
up
I
think
it's
a
good
good
conversation
to
have.
I
I
Otherwise,
we
don't.
We
don't
have
the
place
that
that's
that
we
have
so
I,
really
like
that
that
you
gave
us
the
overview.
It
makes.
What
we're
doing
here
in
the
in
the
project
report
more
meaningful,
at
least
to
me,
and
maybe
the
only
question
I
have
is
when
this
was
developed.
What
year
was
this
prepared.
I
So
how
often
do
we
want
to
take
a
look
at
the
big
picture
and
make
sure
does
this
need
to
be
reimagined
or
is
it?
Is
it
still
good?
Three
years
later
are
we?
Are
we
still
I'm
very
happy
with
with
this?
Are
there
items
that
that
we'd
want
to
add?
Are
there
maybe
items
that
we
need
to
take
off,
because
we
can't
do
everything?
I
So
maybe
that's
a
that's
a
task
for
another
day,
but
but
I
sure,
like
I,
think
it's
a
critical,
Mission
and
I'm
sure
like
that,
that
we
have
this
committee
to
focus
on
it
to
help
to
help
the
community.
With
with
this
mission,.
B
So
the
the
Report
was
generated,
was
it
I
think
it
was
in
2018?
You
talked
about
what
the
town
approved
in
2019..
It.
B
B
So,
while
I
do
think,
we've
made
some
great
progress
again
we're
working
kind
of
at
a
loss
at
what's
already
happened
and
just
trying
to
say,
put
a
finger
in
the
dam,
so
to
speak,
to
stop
it
from
losing
everything,
and
that
is
what
we
why
we
were
created
as
a
task
force
and
I'm.
Happy
also
that
we
re-emphasize
the
the
mission
and
the
purpose
of
what
this
task
force
is
about.
B
I'm
sure
that
Missy
and
staff
can
answer
the
questions
in
their
own
way,
but
Mr
hints
to
answer
part
of
that
question
in
my
mind
that
this
document
will
always
be
living
and
breathing
and
changing
in
some
form.
I.
Don't
think
that
this
task
force
as
it
is
now
will
be
in
existence
forever,
but
there
will
certainly
be
certainly
when
we
get
someone
in
this
position.
B
As
you
also
observed
that,
yes,
it's
a
lot
to
do
and
a
lot
to
implement,
so
we
will
keep
pressing
forward
and
as
we
do,
we
know
that
sometimes
the
Dynamics
change
around
us
in
our
communities,
certainly
with
the
development
and
other
things
that
are
certainly
related
to
the
work
that
we
do
here.
The
impact
of
what
the
bridge
will
do.
Also,
as
we
talk
to
our
fellow
residents
in
the
community,
we
have
situations
that
come
up
and
the
more
we
work,
the
more
we're
doing
it.
B
I'm,
hoping
that
maybe
one
day
we
will
be
able
to
accomplish
everything.
That's
in
this
in
our
recommendations
again,
however,
I
think
that
that
it
would
be
work
that
will
continue
to
be
ongoing.
And,
yes,
there
have
been
some
other
organizations
that
have
helped
with
some
of
the
items
that
I'm
familiar
with
Heritage
Library.
Of
course
Miss
Linda
Pickett
is
here
and
organizations
like
that
and
certainly
Low
Country
Gullah
has
helped
with
identifying
Ayers
property
and
helping
with
some
of
the
taxes
that
are
due.
B
So
we
have
some
citizens
in
the
community
that
are
working
to
to
help
move
some
of
these
things
along
as
well.
B
E
Sir
I
have
a
thought:
one
of
my
thoughts
would
be
and
in
person
I
want
to
say
too
I
appreciate
the
work
that
has
been
being
put
into
the
presentation
you've
been
given,
because
not
every
month
we
come.
We
got
a
nice
thick
pound
of
stuff
to
go
through.
So
I
appreciate
that
so
now,
one
of
the
things
that
I
would
like
to
see
emphasize
is
a
healthy
business.
Community
I
can
remember
when
I
first
came
to
Hilton
Head
several
years
back,
the
first
business.
E
E
E
J
Thank
you
Mr
chairman,
and
thank
you
Missy
for
what
you're
doing
and
preparing
us
for
for
the
meeting.
There
were
a
couple
of
things
that
I
would
like
to
identify
and
and
going
over
where
we
have
the
cultural
preservation.
I
know
that
the
town
has
been
involved
in
regards
to
making
sure
that
people
are
educated
about
the
culture
and
the
history
and
I
would
like
to
say
thank
you
for
that,
but
I
hope
that's
on
a
continuous
basis.
J
I
hope
it's
not
something
that
we
see
immediately
right
now,
and
then
it's
gone
in
six
months.
So
if
we
have
it
on
a
continuous
cycle,
I
think
that
is
very
important,
and
not
only
with
here
at
the
town,
with
the
staff
but
I
think
the
other
projects
and
programs
that
we
need
to
engage
with.
You
know
with
the
chain
and
others
that
we
need
to
definitely
educate
them
about
the
culture
and
the
history
of
the
island.
J
The
public
policies,
the
economic
development
piece
of
this
I
think,
if
possible,
that
we
can
visit
with
that.
The
importance
are
when
we're
implementing
projects
are.
Developments
are
coming
to
the
town
that
we
are
all
inclusive:
okay,
it's
not
just
on
the
south
end
of
the
North
End
of
the
island.
It
has
to
be
island
wide
and
I.
Think
that
is
important.
We
sometimes
don't
always
do
that.
J
So
it's
a
possibility
that
we
can
revisit
that
again
in
a
year
or
two,
but
you
know
we
can't
just
stay
stifled
in
one
area
and
just
say
this:
is
it
we're
not
going
to
do
anything
else,
but
it
all
depends
upon
what
is
happening
around
us,
and
so
we
need
to
be
mindful
and
open-minded
about
that
as
we
grow
as
the
island
grow,
we
have
to
grow
with
it.
F
Sure
a
couple
of
quick
comments,
I
I,
think
the
statement.
Of
course
you
know,
as
we've
said,
we
definitely
take
our
hats
off
to
all
the
work
that
the
staff-
and
we
see
yourself
have
been
doing
and
I
think
the
statement
really
tells
of
the
great
disconnect
that
is
taking
place
between
the
Gullah
community
and
all
of
development
government
and
all
that
is
that
has
happened
and
why
we
were
established
to
start
with.
It's
just
been
that
great
disconnect
between
the
Gullah
community
and
development
tourism.
F
You
know
the
culture
is
tied
to
the
land
and,
as
the
land
had
began
to
fade
is
where
it
began
to
create
issues
for
the
community
and
that's
why
it's
so
much
as
tied
to
the
land
and
the
development
of
land.
The
retaining
of
land
is
always
the
focal
point
of
what
we're
trying
to
accomplish,
because
the
culture
itself
is
has
always
been.
It
will
continue
to
be
tied
to
the
land.
You
know
we
talk
about
all
of
this.
F
It
all
ties
to
what
you
can
or
cannot
do
or
what's
happening
with
the
land,
so
I
I
think
the
the
statement
tells
of
the
disconnect
and
the
tales
of
the
work
and
the
direction
in
which
we
excuse
me
in
which
we
are
headed.
Obviously,
as
we
said,
there's
there's
a
a
lot
here.
A
whole
lot,
there's
been
a
lot
that
has
been
accomplished
and
there's
still
a
lot
of
work
yet
to
be
done,
but
I
think
we're
definitely
headed
in
the
right
direction.
F
F
If
these
things
are
accomplished
and
we
can
better
use
that
which
we
have
remaining,
it's
always
the
hurdles
as
I
think
the
last
part
of
this
really
says
that
you
know
we
have
to
jump
when
it's
time
to
do
something,
and
one
of
the
biggest
concerns
I
have
is.
It
seems
like
when
there's
a
bit
of
accomplishment,
there's
something
else
that
twists
and
turn
and
go
the
other
way.
Just
when
you
think
you've
made
it
to
a
point.
We
find
that
there's
something
else
that
you
thought
we
have
done.
F
So
it's
I'm
not
sure
where
we
get
to
a
point
where
we
can
really
Point
our
fingers
and
say:
okay,
we
got
it,
you
know,
and
that's
I
think
is
the
end
point
of
where
we
want
to
be.
You
know
we.
You
know
I
mentioned
some
folks
earlier
today
about
kicking
the
can
down
the
road
on
some
things.
You
know
it
gets
to
a
point
where
you
have
to
say
Okay.
This
is
what
we're
gonna
do.
This
is
where
we
are.
What's
next,
you
know
not
just
every
time
we
get
to
a
point.
F
You
can
say:
okay,
let's
Kick
the
Can
a
little
further,
we'll
pick
it
up
somewhere
else.
Well,
you
know
eventually
you're
going
to
leave
some
things.
Undone
because
you
keep
kicking
the
can
to
those
things
that
will
come
up
that
you
need
to
get
done.
So
that's
just
my
spill
of
how
I
see
where
we
are
there's
a
tie
to
the
statement
and
what
it
really
tells
you
know
it
tells
them
what
we,
the
the
Gullah
community
has
come
from
and
where
we
and
basically
tells
where
we
are.
F
You
know
so
that
that's
where
I
see
us
currently
and
that's
where
I
see
us
going
and
see
some
of
the
things
that
we
have
done
so.
B
B
K
It's
based
on
some
of
the
comments
that
have
been
made.
I
would
suggest
if
you
are
going
to
be
reviewing
this
purpose
statement.
We've
talked
a
lot
from
the
beginning
about
how
we
measure
and
I
think
that's
important
and
that
the
the
current
moment
we
don't
have
a
metric
so
to
speak,
to
show
our
success
or
not
right
and
I
would
hate
for
that
to
only
be
judged
by
emotions
or
the
good
or
the
bad
that
happens
on
a
daily
basis,
as
Mr
Simmons
was
describing.
K
I
know
that
one
of
the
exercises
that
was
done
very
early
on
was
identifying
all
of
the
Gullah
on
properties
and
then
figure
out
the
amount
of
acreage
that
was
in
place
at
the
time.
I
think
that
study
was
done
back
in
20
17
18,
maybe,
but
we've
got
a
baseline.
That
goes
back
to
mid
90s
with
the
rudash
study
that
talked
about
3
500,
Acres,
okay.
So
the
question
that
I'm
recommended
that
this
group
ask
is:
where
are
we
now
and
are
we
holding
okay
and
you're?
K
Probably
right
we're,
probably
not
going
to
turn
the
tide
and
start
to
add
to
that?
But
no
more
loss,
I
think
is
really
the
mission
at
hand,
but
we
don't
know
that
at
the
moment
I
think
this
important
metric
for
us
to
have,
particularly
since
we
have
turnover
that
new
people
coming
on
to
boards
and
commission
new
people
coming
on
the
staff
new
people
coming
on
the
council
that
constant,
Baseline
and
Metric
I
think
is
important
for
us.
Thank
you.
H
H
H
The
memo
that
was
in
your
packet
outlined
the
comparison
between
what
was
recommended
in
the
mid
Island
District
plan
and
those
five
historic
neighborhoods
against
what
was
recommended
in
the
galagichi
culture
preservation
project
report,
and
so
this
comparison
just
shows
because
again
the
goigichi
report
was
recommending
an
overlay
District.
The
mid
Island
District
plan
is
recommending
that
these
changes
are
made
through
base
zoning,
so
no
overlay
District,
but
that
they
consistently
applied
for
the
five
historic
neighborhood
sites
that
also
are
currently
zoned
rm4.
H
So
if
you
compare
the
two
you
know
there
was
higher
density
that
was
recommended
in
the
cultural
preservation
report
and
there's
between
six
and
eight
dwelling
units
per
acre
recommended
in
the
mid
Island
District
plan.
H
Item
B
in
the
goligichi
culture
preservation
report,
recommends
setback
and
buffer
requirements
being
relaxed
a
little
also
consistent,
uniform
density
standards
as
well
as
setback
buffer
and
open
space
requirement
reductions
would
be
looked
at
in
the
mid
Island
District
plan
as
well,
and
then
also
they
were
looking
at
maximization
of
development
potential
and
in
the
mid
Island
District
plan,
we're
looking
at
the
allowance
of
neighborhood
commercials,
so
that
allows
Economic
Opportunity
for
these
for
these
particular
neighborhoods
and
that
that
mix
would
be
75
residential
and
25
percent
neighborhood
commercial.
H
So
these
are
smaller
scale.
Neighborhood
commercial
opportunities
was
what
was
recommended
in
the
report,
but
more
opportunity
than
just
an
at-home
occupation.
So
not
a
full
commercial,
Enterprise,
neighborhood
commercial
scale,
but
a
little
bit
more
commercial
than
just
an
at-home
occupation
is
what
that
plan
envisioned.
H
So
I
just
wanted
to
again
go
over
what
was
just
adopted
in
Mid
Island
District.
Again,
that's
five
particular
neighborhoods
and
I
have
the
the
slide
here.
So
the
historic
neighborhoods
are
outlined
in
Orange,
it's
Bagel,
Mitchellville,
big
hill,
grassland
and
Marshland
areas
where
these
new
MID
Island
District
plans,
recommendations
will
be
implemented.
And
again
this
shows
a
little
bit
of
a
flavor
of
what
the
plan
was
recommending,
so
additional
density
proposed.
So
there
could
be
some
infill
opportunities
here.
H
It
shows
a
community
garden
as
as
possibly
that
neighborhood
commercial
opportunity,
but
gives
you
an
idea
of
a
more
a
denser
residential
Network
and
also
shows
what
uniform
density
standards
could
look
like.
Should
development
follow
this
particular
image,
so
I
wanted
to
make
sure,
since
you
had
the
opportunity
to
hear
from
the
Consultants
last
month
and
and
then
the
district
plan
was
just
adopted
that
that
you
understand
how
these
recommendations
in
the
district
plan
help
to
implement
what
is
here
in
the
goligichi
culture
preservation
project
report.
B
You
mentioned
the
historic
neighborhoods
if
you
could
maybe
just
give
us
a
more
General
description
of
some
of
the
areas
where
this
development
is
proposed.
Sure.
H
Self
is
a
rather
large
area
that
goes
south
all
the
way
to
the
Marshland
neighborhood
in
and
around
the
Ashmore
tract,
of
course,
around
the
mid
Island
tract,
which
is
going
to
be
the
centerpiece,
the
the
Town
Park
site
that
103
acre
Park,
and
it
goes
all
the
way
up
to
the
ocean.
So
we've
got
historic.
Mitchellville
is
included,
bake
all
neighborhood
in
and
around
the
airport
and
around
those
commercial
shopping
center
areas
in
the
middle.
H
But
that's
the
that's
a
District
boundary
in
full
and
within
that
larger
District
boundary
there
are
five
historic
neighborhoods
in
those
historic
neighborhoods
are
where
this
this
development,
these
development
recommendations
are
going
to
be
taking
place.
I
Yeah
two
questions.
One
is
on
that
order.
Surrendering
of
what
a
neighborhood
could
look
like
with
the
increased
densities
it.
It
can
never
look
like
that
with
Air's
property,
because
you
couldn't
build
structure
like
that
on
Ayers
property
right.
You
just
couldn't
get
a
mortgage
if,
if
it's
widely
held
and
and
you
can't
get
a
mortgage
there.
H
The
the
plan
shows
or
proposes
also
that
we
would
develop
a
small
house
series,
so
there
would
be
pre-vetted
and
pre-approved
house
plans
for
use
if
somebody
was
too
able
to
finance
the
project
even
without
a
mortgage,
if
it
was
Ayers
property
that
there
could
be
other
housing
options
than
just
a
mobile
home
development.
Okay,.
I
And
then
my
second
question
is:
is
again:
I
I
was
thinking
about
it.
Last
time
we
met
that
the
75-25
split
and
that's
that's
easy
for
us
to
say,
but
but
it
seems
like
that,
ought
to
be
a
neighborhood
by
neighborhood
that
I'd
be
established
neighborhood
by
neighborhood,
because
maybe
some
neighborhoods
want
that
25
percent
and
and
maybe
some
neighborhoods
wanted
more
residential.
How
would
we
know
and
and
how
could
you
set
a
standard
for
for
all
over
14
communities?
I
It
seems
to
me
that
it
would
be
better
if,
if
those
communities
establish
what
they
would
like
to
see
for
their
neighborhoods.
H
And
that
is
I
mean
again.
It
was
recommended
in
this
plan
to
be
a
75-25
split
among
residential
and
neighborhood
commercial,
and
that
is
what
it
is.
A
recommendation.
So
we'll
have
to
go
through
the
process
to
amend
the
code,
to
both
allow
the
additional
density
and
the
neighborhood
commercial
as
a
use,
and
and
as
we
go
through
that
process,
not
only
does
if
the
zoning
District
changes,
which
it
likely
will
go
from
rm4
to
RM,
six
or
eight,
if,
depending
on
where
we
land
that
requires
a
rezoning
of
properties
as
well.
B
So
I
I
just
wanted
to
wait
till
you
finish,
but
I
I'm
not
entirely
sure
and
I.
Think
you
answered
that
in
part,
Missy
about
Ayers
property
not
being
able
to
be
developed,
I
think
there
have
been
some
circumstances.
Certainly
when
the
town
has
acquired
property,
that
they've
been
able
to
figure
out
how
to
do
some
development
on
properties
that
might
have
been
considered.
B
Ayers
property-
that's
something
we
talked
about
early
on
when
we
start
developing
these
recommendations
and
there's
still,
as
we
said,
a
lot
of
work
to
be
done.
It
may
even
be
at
a
state
level
but
I'm,
hoping
that
the
town
and
this
task
force
can
be
an
advocate
for
getting
some
clarity
on
exactly
what
can
happen
with
Ayers
property
and
I'm
sure
we
all
live
for
the
day.
But
we
do
reduce
the
amount
of
heirs
property
that
we
that
we
have.
H
L
You
said
how
many
communities
is
left
in
the
overlay
that
you're
talking
about
right
here.
Five.
L
In
those
historic
five
historic
neighborhoods,
like
do,
we
have
like
some
idea
of
the
Gullah
families
that
are
there.
It's
just
that
when
I
look
at
the
overlay
District
that
we're
dealing
with
now
being
born
and
raised
is
like
I,
don't
know
that
there
are
a
lot
of
Gullah
families
that
live
in
this
particular
area
scope,
so
I'm,
I'm,
just
I,
guess
I'm
I
have
a
hard
time
of
from
what
we
talked
about
and
the
overlay
of
the
gala
communities.
How
did
we
get
to
this
area
right
here?
L
That
looks
to
me:
yes,
I
see
the
benefit
of
the
park,
and
you
know
things
that
will
happen
there.
But
then
you
still
have
the
airport
that
you
have
Gullah
communities
that
are
already
impacted
on
how
that
will
impact
their
property.
Not
only
do
you
have
those
families
and
those
in
that
Community-
that's
impacted
to
it
around
there
I'm
just
trying
to
see
the
benefit
of
I
want
to
hear
the
the
true
benefits
of
this,
and
what
brought
me
to
saying.
L
So
to
get
to
that
point,
and
I
heard
you
say
there
could
be
a
model
of
some
little
I
guess
you
said
like
little
homes
or
or
whatever
at
I,
don't
know
where
I
am
I
have
a
hard
time
with
things
like
that,
and
statements
like
that
when
we're
trying
to
come
together
and
build
that
gap
of
the
island,
the
one
Island
and
to
say
to
keep
saying
looking
at
stuff
for
the
future
for
the
future
Alex
Mitch
Mr
Brown
mentioned
the
rudac
study.
L
How
long
will
this
take
to
get
to
the
community
that
the
communities
that
are
really
sitting
there
like
they
are
that
want
to
benefit
from
it,
for
instance,
so
I
live
in
the
Stony
area.
So,
of
course,
with
everything,
that's
happened
through
our
you
know
my
family
and
experience
and
families
around
like
you
know,
I
got
several
calls
like
okay.
What
are
they
saying?
What
are
we
doing
whatever
and
then
to
come
back
and
be
like
okay?
Well
now
the
overlay
is
over
here.
L
L
H
So
this
it's
not
an
overlay
District,
it's
it's
a
it's
a
Redevelopment,
sorry
Redevelopment,
District
area,
sorry
about
that
and
and
the
area
would
achieve
all
of
the
regulation
and
Zoning
changes
through
making
base
zoning
changes,
and
so
we
were
looking
at
doing
more
District
planning
in
other
areas
of
the
island
so
to
replicate.
H
You
know
what
works
with
the
district
Center
that's
proposed
here.
What
works
with
the
historic
neighborhoods
here
and
then,
as
we
move
to
other
areas
of
the
island
to
we
would
replicate
those
recommendations
and
we
also
have
an
island-wide
growth
framework
and
master
planning
process
on
the
horizon.
We
could
look
to
see
how
this
is
is
going
with
implementation
and
look
to
weave
in
additional
recommendations
within
that
process.
H
Again,
just
like
what
was
proposed
in
this
plan
with
the
overlay
is
still
required.
A
large-scale.
You
know
rezoning
of
of
a
lot
of
properties
to
enact
what
was
proposed
here
as
an
overlay
District.
So
a
lot
of
process.
Public
hearings
are
required
through
through
the
process
that
was
outlined
in
this
plan
as
well.
It's
the
same
amount
of
you
know
red
tape
and
process.
That's
required
with
this.
H
It
requires
first
rolling
out
a
future
land
use
map
which
requires
us
to
amend
our
comprehensive
plan
to
adopt
the
the
mid
Island
future
land
use
map,
and
then
we
can
work
through
an
implementation
plan
to
implement
the
recommendations
that
were
were
called
out.
Certainly
we
could
look
on.
You
know
to
create
implementation
schedules
that
you
know
advances
say
the
historic
neighborhood
recommendations
before
some
of
the
others,
but
but
certainly
that's
the
process
and
and
no
you're
right.
It's
not
for
all
14
of
the
historic
neighborhoods.
It
is
for
these
five.
So
I
understand
that.
B
Yeah,
let
me
see
if
I
can
help
a
little
bit
and
I
appreciate
Miss
green,
bringing
those
points
out,
because
what
I
hear
her
expressing
is
the
history
as
we
know
it
and
again,
as
it
was
stated
in
that
mission
statement
and
our
purpose,
a
very
disturbing
Trend,
there
have
been
some
things
that
have
already
happened
that
have
that
have
already
happened.
B
That
is
why
our
community,
a
lot
of
times
like
like
miss
queen,
is
saying
we're
asking
questions
what's
happening
now,
but
a
couple
things
yeah.
This
is
the
mid
Island
District
plan
I
think
we're
starting
to
have
some
discussions
to
move
away
from
what
we
know
as
an
overlay
District.
We
may
still
look
at
it
like
that,
but
I
think
what
was
mentioned
earlier.
We
start
maybe
looking
at
things
as
base
zoning.
B
The
other
comments
that
I
heard
I
think
are
also
appropriate,
that
looking
at
the
different
neighborhoods
and
even
almost
property
to
property
Case
by
case,
because
a
lot
of
the
properties
are
very
unique
and
have
unique
Dynamics
in
different
neighborhoods
I
think
there's
a
couple
things
that
is
going
to
help
of
course,
and
when
we
get
someone
filled
in
this
position
that
can
really
be
focused
on
this
particular
work,
not
that
the
staff
is
not
doing
it.
B
But
if
we
have
someone
in
that
position,
then
that's
someone
we
hope
will
connect
with
the
community
so
that
when
we
have
those
folks
asking
the
question,
we
can
put
a
face
with
that
person
and
ask
them
directly
or
they
can
come
and
inform
us
for
sure,
but
doing
a
pretty
good
job
as
far
as
communication
getting
it
out
there.
But
it
would
be
nice
to
have
someone.
We
know.
That's
in
that
position.
B
The
last
thing
is
the
Community
Development
Corporation
that's
been
discussed
too.
That's
going
to
be
coming
online,
it's
been
approved
by
the
Town
Council
and
that
particular
organization
is
really
going
to
help
with
a
lot
of
what's
going
on
here
now.
B
We
here
at
the
task
force
and
certainly
in
our
community,
will
continue
to
have
some
very
strong
input
and
I
just
share
this,
because
I
know
that
the
input
that
we
have
that
we
just
heard
is
coming
from
a
place
where,
again
we
have
some
history.
That
is
not
always
good
history.
So
we
continue
to
ask
those
questions
and
we're
very
concerned
about
development
and
what
happens
in
our
historic
neighborhoods.
E
Amazing
I
think
I
do
have
I,
have
a
question
that
I'm
a
little
cloudy
about
as
well
with
the
with
the
adoption
of
these
Mid
Island
District
planning
when
I
understand
the
implementation
process
will
take
some
time,
but
if
this
once
this
is
fully
adopted
and
it's
not
being
used
as
a
template
for
the
other
neighborhoods
that
are
that
have
not
received
that
increase
or
those
those
they
know
itemized
here,
that's.
H
E
And
I
use
my
follow-up
question
that
would
be
with
this
as
a
template
to
move
forward
when
it
will
be
necessary
to
go
through
that
whole
process
of
having
consultants
for
every
little
neighborhood.
H
And
I,
don't
believe
so
I
think
we
would
take
the
we
would
do
the
community
outreach
and
stakeholder
meetings
to
make
sure
that
all
of
those
are
consistent
throughout.
But
now,
if
we
have
a
a
plan
and
an
implementation
schedule
that
appears
to
work
in
a
you
know,
replicative
fashion,
then
then
we
will.
We
will.
H
M
Mr,
chair
and
members
of
the
task
force-
let
me
just
say,
I
I,
just
came
in
a
little
bit
late
and
I
probably
missed
most
of
the
presentation,
but
I
can
get
the
drippers
to
what's
being
proposed
and,
what's
being
considered
and
I,
think
that
is
to
step
in
the
right
direction.
To
come
up
with
the
template
of
some
kind.
Thomas
said
that
and
I
was
about
I
made
a
note
of
it.
M
It's
not
a
cookie
cutter
approach,
so
every
cookie
cutter
is
not
going
to
fit
every
neighborhood,
as
we
know
so.
I
think
it's
important
what
you
said:
Mr
chairs,
that
it
has
to
be
ratcheted
down
into
each
neighborhood,
where
in
some
one
is
responsible
for
getting
with
those
various
families,
because
every
family
is
different,
every
amount
of
years
property
is
going
to
be
different
and
different
people
are
going
to
want
different
things
with
their
property.
I.
Think
it's
going
to
be.
M
The
grassroot
approach
is
going
to
be
very,
very
critical
to
coming
up
with
a
plan
for
for
the
for
the
neighborhoods.
If
you
ride
through
the
neighborhoods
now,
the
neighborhoods
are
not
really
neighborhoods
anymore.
They're.
Just
parts
of
parcels
of
neighborhoods,
more
so
than
just
a
distinct
neighborhood,
where
we
can
say
that
all
the
property
in
this
neighborhood
is
got
to
own
property.
M
The
other
thing
that
was
mentioned
was
that
the
75-25
split
I
think
that
would
be
better
if
it
says
up
to
75
and
up
to
25
or
whatever.
That
number
is
for
the
maximum
number.
As
far
as
the
split
between
commercial
versus
residential
those
numbers
should
be,
we
should
have
some
flexibility
with
those
numbers
when
you
write
those
numbers.
M
The
base.
Zoning
idea
is
a
good
idea,
I
think
and
I
think
that
that's
the
only
way
you're
going
to
be
able
to
distinctly
or
definitively
work
with
each
neighborhood
in
its
own
setting
more
so
than
anything
else.
The
chaplain
neighborhood
is
not
going
to
be
like
the
like
the
Spanish,
Wells
neighborhoods.
You
can't
just
match
those
two
neighborhoods
Spanish
Wells
is
completely
different.
M
This
presentation
is
basically
from
her
professional
point
of
view,
and
we
need
to
make
sure
that
we
know
what
we
want
personally,
without
personally,
to
be
done
on
how
we
own
personally
utilize
our
property,
with
the
respect
for
our
neighbors
and
respect
for
the
whole
history
of
our
neighborhoods.
So
thank
you,
sir.
Thank.
B
F
I,
just
I
like
to
spin
off
just
a
little
bit
and
I
guess
Camel
Got,
upright
before
I
was
going
to
suggest.
You
know
we
talk
about
the
the
mid
Island
plan,
you
know,
I,
guess
it's
either
against
or
versus
the
the
the
plan
from
the
from
the
task
force
side
of
it,
and
you
know
the
question
always
comes
up
about
the
separate
of
the
neighborhoods
and
how
they
each
are
different.
Look
Mr,
Campbell!
F
Like
myself,
you
know
we
live
in
the
best
neighborhood
of
course,
so
we
we
know
that
it'll
be
different
when
it
comes
to
the
Spanish
Wells
area,
just
the
Dynamics
of
the
property
itself.
What
would
be
different
and,
of
course,
I,
agree
with
him
and
it's
going
to
say
as
well.
The
75-25
is
not
a
bad
idea,
but
if
it
says
up
to
it
gives
you
fog
rid
of
flexibility,
I
think
that
that
approach
is
not
bad,
but
even
though
I
like
to
think
the
neighborhoods
all
basically
need
the
same
thing.
F
You
know
that
need
is
going
to
rise
in
a
different
in
a
different
form,
some
kind
of
way
you
know
we're
all
going
to
need
roads,
we're
going
to
need
water,
we're
going
to
need
a
sewer.
They
all
need
that.
You
know
the
approach
after
you
get.
That
is
is
where
you
would
go
and
that's
why
you'll
need
some
flexibility,
but
I
think
the
idea
of
the
mid
Island
plan
being
a
template,
I
suppose
that
could
work
and
I
suppose
it's
not
a
bad
idea.
F
It's
it
doesn't
give
us
that
added
boost
for
the
other
neighborhoods.
Does
it
really
give
us
that?
So
when
that
is
done,
we
can
look
forward
to
something
not
being
as
long
of
a
process,
because
we
know
this
process
as
it
is,
is
going
to
take
some
time
and
for
the
other
neighborhoods
at
the
bounce,
back
I'll
come
back
and
then
go
through
that
same
process,
for
the
same
thing
is
where
the
the
real
uneasiness
come.
F
You
know,
because
we're
wondering
are
we
getting
left
behind
and
have
to
go
through
the
same
year,
long
plus
process,
to
get
what
we
already
know.
We
need
so
I
think
if
it's
done
with
the
flexibility
done
with
the
the
other
neighborhoods
in
mind,
then
it
could
be
a
good,
a
good
approach.
You
know
you
have
to
have
some
Foundation
to
build
on
and
if,
if
the
mid
Island
that
you
you
compare,
the
two
gives
you
that
Foundation,
that
I
think
we're
headed
in
the
right
direction.
H
N
Good
afternoon,
everyone
thank
you
so
much
for
having
me
here
today
to
present
to
you,
missy
Luke,
invited
me
in
to
talk
to
you
about
pop-up
events
and
special
events
related
to
business
licensing.
My
name
is
April
Akins
and
I.
Am
the
revenue
services
manager
here
at
the
town
of
Hilton,
Head
I
oversee
the
administration
of
business,
license
taxes,
our
other
local
taxes,
such
as
Hospitality
taxes,
accommodation
taxes
and
Beach
preservation
fees.
N
So
as
you're
aware,
the
town
has
a
special
event
ordinance
and
it
was
adopted
to
assist
our
community.
Providing
and
coordinating
events
for
the
public
by
ensuring
events
are
both
safe
and
meet
the
basic
needs
of
the
participants.
All
events,
large
or
small,
are
considered
a
special
event.
Under
this
ordinance
foreign.
N
There
are
all
types
of
special
events:
I
went
through
enlisted
some
that
we
that
we
deal
with
every
day
here
in
the
town
and
again
they're
large
or
small.
So
we
have
our
Corsair
Festival
events,
our
parades,
marches
and
protests
markets,
which
include
farmers,
markets,
art
markets,
ongoing
markets
or
even
a
market
that
may
just
happen
through
the
weekend.
We
have
pop-up
shops,
weddings,
outdoor
concerts,
tournaments
sporting
events.
The
list
can
go
on
and
on,
but
I
think
you
get
the
drift
here.
N
So
when
you
are
organizing
a
special
event,
it's
important
that
you
work
with
Town
staff
to
ensure
that
you
are
going
through
the
permitting
and
regulations
that
need
to
be
considered
when
planning
a
special
event.
We
do
have
a
town,
special
event
staff
here
to
help
guide
you
through
the
process.
It
can
be
a
little
complicated,
I'm
not
going
to
lie,
but
the
town's
a
special
event
coordinator
here
at
the
Town
acts
as
the
liaison
to
the
various
departments
that
may
be
involved
with
your
event.
N
N
N
N
N
The
event
location
needs
to
be
reviewed
for
zoning.
If
you
have
alcohol,
beer
or
wine
cells,
you'll
need
to
make
sure
that
you
have
the
appropriate
alcohol
beverage.
Licensing
from
the
Department
of
Revenue
a
stage
or
a
tent
may
also
require
permitting
and
inspections
from,
like
our
fire
department,
music
and
entertainment.
Most
of
those
require
A-Town
business
license.
N
The
music
and
entertainment
piece
I'm
just
going
to
go
back
to
that.
That
mostly
is
for,
if
you're
looking
for
permitting
the
fire
department
wants
to
know
if
there's
an
electrical
connection
and
make
make
sure
that
the
fire
is
safe.
There's
fire
safety.
N
Vendors
are
obviously
artists,
musicians,
people
who
are
selling
any
type
of
food
beverage,
Merchant
merchandise,
retailers,
that
sort
of
thing
and
we'll
get
a
little
further
into
those
requirements
in
the
next
couple
of
slides,
amusement
rides
are
regulated
by
the
state.
There's
bleachers
firework
displays,
there's
all
sorts
of
items
that
do
require
additional,
permitting,
typically
by
the
state
and
the
town
as
well.
N
N
N
So
I
wanted
to
visit
the
vendor
business
license
requirements
for
small
events.
I've
tried
to
make
it
easy.
It's
not
always
easy
in
the
business
license
world,
so
any
business
that
has
regular
business
operations
will
definitely
require
a
town
business
license
and
that
is
regular.
Business
operations
within
the
town
of
Hilton
Head,
regular,
regular
business
activities
are
defined
as
more
than
two
sale
periods
of
more
than
three
days
per
year.
N
Vendors
selling,
food
and
beverages,
all
food
trucks
and
mobile
food
units
require
a
town
business
license,
even
if
they
will
only
participate
at
one
event.
Additional
operational
permits
are
required
from
the
town's
fire
department
for
these
types
of
businesses,
in
addition
to
state
regulations
and
permits.
So
that
is
the
reason
why
they
are
required
to
have
a
business
license.
N
I
included
this
in
the
presentation.
I
think
it's
important
for
everyone
to
understand
that
we
do
have
a
local
business
license.
Local
industry
business
license
that's
in
our
town
code
and
it
states
any
person
who
desire
to
exclusively
engage
in
business
of
offering
for
public
sale
at
designated
locations
as
determined
by
the
town
manager,
Farm
and
Garden,
Products
or
flowers
grown
on
the
property
of
such
person.
N
N
Of
course
there's
my
information:
please
take
it
down,
so
you
can
give
me
a
call
or
send
me
an
email
if
you
have
any
questions
but
I
want
you
to
know
that
I'm
happy
to
be
your
point
of
contact
at
all
times.
My
my
job
is
to
get
you
licensed
so
that
you
can
flourish
and
have
a
very
good
business
economy.
I
think
that
was
the
words
you
used
healthy
business,
so
I'm
definitely
here
to
help.
N
We
have
other
resources
as
well.
We
have
this
great
user-friendly
tool
on
the
website,
I'm,
not
sure
if
you're
aware
of
it
on
how
to
help
plan
a
special
event,
so
I'm
going
to
pull
that
up
and
show
it
to
you.
We
obviously
have
our
special
event
coordinator
that
helps
you
know
work
as
a
liaison
with
all
the
Departments
that
may
have
to
get
involved,
and
then
we
also
have
a
town.
N
N
I
use
this
a
lot
so
there's
actually
a
checklist
of
items
here,
on
the
left
hand,
side
and,
depending
on
what
your
event
is
doing,
you
would
just
click
on
it
to
find
out
what
else
is
required,
so
it
provides
a
checklist.
N
So
in
this
particular
case,
if
you
had
less
than
250
participants,
you're
not
required
to
get
a
special
event,
but
you
may
have
other
items
that
are
required
based
on
the
boxes
that
you're
checking
you
can
go
through
location.
You
can
do
event
specifics.
So
if
you
knew
you
were
going
to
serve
alcohol,
it
we're
sorry,
then
it
can
tell
you
what's
required
for
that.
N
I
just
thought
this
was
very
helpful
again.
I
use
it
a
lot
when
I'm
speaking
with
people
over
the
phone,
so
that
I
know
that
I'm
giving
them
the
proper
information.
Our
Town
staff
has
been
working
behind
the
scenes,
reviewing
the
special
event,
policies
and
procedures,
practices
and
our
ordinance.
We
really
are
trying
to
make
this
a
little
more
streamlined
and
friendlier
because
it
can
get
pretty
complicated.
The
larger
the
event
happens.
N
N
N
N
Yes,
so
the
event
coordinator
sponsor
our
producer
would
need
to
obtain
a
business
license
or
the
ones
organizing
the
event
and
a
lot
of
times
are
charging
fees
to
the
vendors
and
setting
everything
up
right.
So
you
have
that
piece
of
it
and
then
obviously
the
vendors,
depending
on
what
they're
doing,
would
need
to
obtain
a
business
license
as
well,
and
then
the
location
of
the
event
would
also
need.
N
N
So
the
vendors
again
oh
hold
on
one.
L
N
N
D
A
N
Okay,
so
in
that
particular
event,
that's
actually
it
falls
under
the
large
event,
so
that
would
be
over
250
participants,
the
vendors
that
are
there
again.
If
they're
not
doing
regular
business
operations,
then
they
get
a
special
license
to
operate
just
for
that
one
day,
but
like
that's
in
a
different,
that's
if
you're
having
over
250.
N
That
start,
that's
always
been
in
the
word
Ned,
so,
instead
of
having
an
annual
license,
a
lot
of
those
folks
that
you
talk
about
are
just
there
for
the
weekend
to
sell.
You
know
what
their
items
from
their
home
so
that
doesn't
fall
in
the
regular
business
activities
because
of
that
they
are
not
required
to
submit
for
an
annual
business
license.
L
L
O
N
N
So,
in
the
event
that
you're
speaking
of
the
sponsor
is
responsible
for
making
sure
the
vendors
have
either
the
correct
business
license
or
the
special
license
that
we
talked
about,
they
do
not
have
the
vendor
do
that
themselves.
It's
the
sponsor's
requirement
to
and
responsibility
to
make
sure
that
the
vendors
are
licensed
properly
so
behind
the
scenes,
they're
working
with
Town
staff
and
submitting
a
report,
if
you
will
of
the
vendors
that
will
be
at
that
event,
participating
and
then
based
on
the
needs
there,
Town
staff
works
with
the
sponsor
directly.
So
that's
that's!
N
L
N
Something
that
we
are
working
on
to
educate
the
public.
As
I
said,
our
town
staff's
been
working
to
try
to
make
a
little
easier
and
putting
the
information
on
the
website
so
that
you
are
aware
that
that
is
considered
a
special
event
and
not
just
a
you
know,
a
business
for
the
day.
It's
very
different
in
our
town
ordinance,
but
I
I've
been
here
for
almost
14
years,
and
that
has
been
the
practice.
The
14
years
I've
been
here.
N
E
E
Now
another
question
on
that
same
scenario:
this
verse
has
done
his
work
as
far
as
the
town
can
see.
Let's
say
the
town
finds
out
that
someone
at
the
event
doesn't
have
their
license,
whose
responsibility
is
that.
N
E
To
the
vendor,
yeah
I,
guess
it's
just
my
last
question:
if
I
want
to
do
a
yard
sale,
you
have
to
have
a
business
license
for
that.
N
N
E
N
If
you
were
going
to
have
an
event
like
that,
and
it
was
less
than
250
participants,
then
you
would
just
follow
the
guidelines
that
we
just
went
through
and
again
the
if
you're
going
to
sponsor
something
of
that
nature,
then
normally
you
would
have
to
have
a
business
license,
so
you
know
like
the
school
that
I
would
pack
it
those.
Those
are
sponsors
of
very
large
events.
N
J
I
have
a
comment
and
a
question.
I
would
like
to
say
thank
you
to
this
town
for
supporting
events
that
I've
been
a
part
of
and
learn
something
new
every
year.
Things
pop
up
and
I
really
do
appreciate
what
you
guys
have
guided
us
through
with
this.
J
We
we
do
a
a
very
large
event,
and
so
we
are
responsible
for
quite
a
few
vendors
that
we
have
to
deal
with,
and
you
know
it's
always
that
communication,
whether
or
not
they
have
a
business
license
or
a
license
to
do
what
they're
doing
I
am
question
concerned
about
the
pop-up
again,
because,
as
Shawna
was
saying,
Ms
Green
was
saying
that
you
know
a
lot
of
this
did
not
surface
until
now
that
the
pop-ups
are
coming
up
and
I
mean
I
just
went
online
to
kind
of
Define.
J
What
a
pop-up
shop
is
just
to
make
sure
that
I
am.
You
know
asking
the
right
question
with
this,
and
basically,
if
someone
have
a
pop-up
shot
down
in
Mitchellville
and
they're
there
for
more
than
two
to
three
days
and
they
are
required
to
have
a
license
to
do
their
business,
correct.
N
N
N
J
J
Help
I
promise
and
and
dealing
with
these
events
that
we've
done
in
the
past
and
the
ones
that
I've
attend
I
mean
who
is
actually
monitoring
the
events
to
do
as
what
we
talked
about
and
having
the
metrics
behind
who
is
On
Target
and
who
is
not
on
target.
Who
is
penalized?
Who
isn't
what
is
you
know
what
happens
to
the
person
who
is
out
of
order.
A
N
Is
a
very,
as
you
know,
can
be
a
very
strenuous
event
planning
and
that
piece
is
definitely
monitored
by
Eileen
and
then
additional
Town
staff
across
the
organization.
So
once
we
receive
that
application,
it's
the
information
is
sent
out
to
all
the
Departments
that
need
to
be
involved
in
that
process.
And
then
everybody
takes
their
responsibility.
You
know
so
my
team
looks
at
the
business
licensing.
The
fire
department
would
start
looking
and
so
on.
J
N
No
so
I
know
our
process.
Internally
has
been
evolving
a
changing,
Angie
Stone
and
our
special
event
team
meet
with
the
event,
sponsors
and
anyone
involved
in
planning
the
event,
and
that
leads
up
to
the
event.
So
if
there's
something
that
needs
addressing
within
the
planning
process,
then
we
get
the
you
know,
Town
staff
involved
that
needs
to
help
with
that,
make
sure
that
they're
compliant,
so
it
kind
of
starts
at
the
top
Eileen
starts.
You
know,
sending
information
out.
N
O
Events
and
and
all
of
you
who
hold
them
here
on
the
island,
they
make
this
a
special
place
to
live
and
we're
trying
to,
as
April
mentioned
I'm
sorry
I'm
Angie
Stone
for
the
record,
we're
trying
to
evolve
this
process
and
create
more
of
an
educational
opportunity
to
help
folks
understand
what
the
requirements
are
and
help
them
be
compliant
in
terms
of
enforcement.
We
don't
want
to
go
that
route
right
now.
We
are
doing
a
whole
lot
to
make
sure
that
way
we
are
treating.
O
If
you
have
a
specific
scenario
that
that
you're
thinking
of,
if
we
could
talk
specifically
about
that,
but
we're
trying
not
to
be
the
enforcement
arm
right
now,
we're
trying
to
get
the
education
going
and
help
folks
to
be
comply
and
and
be
a
partner
with
them
along
the
way
to
be
sure
that
we're
keeping
the
community
safe
and
we're
having
good,
safe
events
is
really
the
the
aim
of
it
all.
Definitely.
D
O
I
think
that
is
in
the
code,
but
I
can
tell
you
that
I
have
not
been
to
a
single
event
where
I
have
seen
them
displayed
so
I.
Don't
again,
we
are
looking
at
on
the
front
end
of
an
application,
we're
looking
at
a
list
of
vendors,
so
we
have
an
idea
of
who's
going
to
be
there
I'm
not
going
around
the
event
with
that
list
and
checking
them
off.
O
I
N
N
Then,
if
there
are
additional
requirements,
the
fire
department
is
works
very
quickly
to
try
to
get
inspections
or
whatever
might
need
to
happen.
So
you
know
we
can
expedite
it
and
ask
for
someone
if
you
were
suddenly
wanting
to
do
something
in
a
week's
notice.
We
try
to
work
with
everyone,
because
we
just
want
you
to
have
a
successful
event.
B
Okay,
thank
you,
Miss
Akins,
I.
Think.
If
there
are
some
more
questions,
I
would
like
to
maybe
assign
someone
from
the
task
force
to
work
with
you
and
maybe
come
back,
and
then
we
can
what's
what
I'm
hearing
here
is
what's
needed
is
education.
B
Yes,
we
just
all
need
to
understand
and
understand
that
there's
not
a
process
at
this
point
for
penalizing
or
citations,
or
things
like
that,
but
we're
certainly
having
some
situation
where
I
think
that
we're
just
not
clear
on
how
it
works
and
what
will
happen
if
we
don't
have
the
the
proper
permits
and
things
in
place.
I'm,
sorry,
Mr,
Sims!
You
had
one
more
thing.
F
F
Town
yeah
so
I
mean
and
which
is
I
I.
Suppose
that's
what
really
complicates
the
whole
issue,
because
it's
a
matter
of
Revenue
and
it
doesn't
really.
You
know-
I
mean
I
I.
Guess
this
to
me.
That's
what
complicates
the
whole
thing
because
and
why
had
not
been
an
issue
in
the
past?
Is
you
know
it's
been
a
a
smooth
transition
for
most
of
the
neighborhood
pop-up
shops,
but
I
think
when
the
neighborhood
pop
shots
began
to
grow.
F
F
What
I
really
hear
going
on
because
most
times
as
this
green
opponent
I'll
do
that
you
know
when
a
whole
says
we're
doing
a
pop-up
shop.
She
very
well
may
need
to
obtain
all
that
she
needs
to
obtain,
but
then
it
has
come
to
to
to
the
front
or
come
to
the
table
to
be
known
that
if
you're
doing
such
an
event,
then
you
have
to
follow
these
guidelines,
not
that
they
haven't
always
been
there
but
I.
Guess
it's
a
matter
of
when
an
item
when,
when,
when
functions,
grow
into
where
it's
more?
F
F
If
the
definition
was
sort
of
revolved
between
what's
a
a
Market
flea
market,
otherwise
versus
the
pop-up
shop,
because
it
it
was
thought
that
the
rules
are
different
between
a
flea
market,
open
market
or
whatever,
and
a
pop-up
shop.
N
N
F
E
For
me,
there
was
a
young
lady
who
here
before
us,
who
I
think
was
being
challenged
by
the
ruins
of
pop-up
shops
that
she
was
having
them
and
then
for
some
reason
she
was
asked
to
stop
or
was
or
told,
not
that
she
couldn't
do
it
anymore.
E
E
Okay,
I'm
I'm
I'm.
My
question
was
going
to
be
whether
or
not
that
particular
young
lady,
my
name
is
Felicia.
Young
has
been
able
to
continue
to
do
her
vending
or
pop-up
shops
when
she
was
doing
about
it,
because
that
was.
That
was
the
reason
why
you
were
here.
I
think
today
it's
explained
to
give
us
background
of
what
pop-up
shops
and
relax.
You
know
that
stuff
things
yeah.
F
Just
just
to
jump
in
and
I
guess:
it's
okay
to
call
call
names.
I!
Think
you
mentioned
a
name
but
I,
recall,
yeah,
Tracy
Young
has
come
in
several
different
times,
so
did
have
you
all
worked
with
Tracy?
Have
you
come
to
any
understanding
about
where
when
and
how
she
can
continue?
Because
she
continues?
She
would
have
pop-up
shelves
on
property
that
I
own,
and
it
was
simply
a
matter
for
me
having
the
space.
Okay,
fine,
but
I
think
it
became
a
whole
nother
animal.
F
When
this
thing
got
to
a
point
where
it
began
to
be
noticed,
it
was
then
as
the
zoning
correct
incorrect,
is
it
small
or
large
or
otherwise
would
that
have
been
when
there
had
been
very
successful
items
without
any
incident
or
otherwise,
except
I
think
the
fact
of
dollars
and
cents.
You
know
as
I.
F
Can
it
just
comes
to
mind
to
me
when
it
becomes
a
money
issue,
then
it's
an
issue
for
folks
to
have
it,
but
I
don't
know
where
it
becomes
a
happy
median
for
our
neighborhood
and
our
community
to
host
these
kind
of
events,
because
if
we
remember
this
started
out
as
how
the
Gullah
people
could
exhibit
their
crafts
and
otherwise,
but
then
it
became
a
business,
it
became
well,
it's
now
becoming
a
business
more
so
that
you've
been
able
to
exhibit
your
craft
Wares
and
otherwise,
if
you're
going
to
do
that,
then
it
qualifies
you
to
have
all
of
these
other
things.
F
Now,
as
we
work
toward
being
able
to
show
our
where
and
our
craft
from
the
from
the
community
and
I
I,
don't
think
that
has
I,
don't
think
no
one
wants
to
be
non-compliant
when
you
have
these
events,
but
we
come
right
back
full
circle
to
the
the
hurdles
to
get
these
things
done.
You
know
in
our
community.
You
know
if
something's
being
hosted
on
the
town,
it's
property
somewhere
or
otherwise,
I
guess
in
the
correct
zoning
you
you
know:
I
I,
guess
that's!
F
F
So
the
issue
is:
is
that
how
do
we
find
a
compliant
way
to
have
these
within
our
communities
for
our
people?
Even
if
Outsiders
come
to
participate,
we
we
still
lose
in
our
community,
because
we
sometimes
you
know
we
we're
in
the
wrong
zone
or
there's
no
way
to
become
compliant
if
you're,
not
on
Town
property
somewhere,
where
these
things
are
loud.
N
I
after
sitting,
through
the
meeting
and
listening
to
your
agenda
items,
I
can
certainly
appreciate
where
you're
coming
from
and
I
would
love
to
sit
down
and
talk
with
any
of
you
or
your
entire
task
force
and
try
to
find
a
solution
for
that.
I
think
it's
important
to
move
forward
and
to
create
the
bridge
that
you
were
talking
about.
B
B
J
So
I
just
want
to
state
that
when
you
talk
about
the
revenue
from
the
business
license
and
the
things
that
they
have
to
pay
for
in
their
taxes,
it
does
come
back
to
us
through
our
a
tax,
and
so
that
money
is
for
our
non-profit
programs
that
we're
putting
on
events
and
other
things.
That's
happening
on
the
island
that
if
we
didn't
have
that
money,
we
would
not
be
able
to
do
that.
J
So
it's
not
total
full
circle
that
the
money
all
comes
back
to
us,
but
some
of
it
does
and
I
just
wanted
to
say
that,
because
it's
important
because
the
town
do
you
know,
give
us
that
opportunity
to
apply
for
that
funding
through.
You
know,
with
non-profits
to
be
able
to
get
those
kind
of
funds,
and-
and
some
of
those
funds
do
come
from
the
licenses
and
pieces.
So
I
just
want
to
make
that
comment.
It's
just
I
felt
that
it's
blind.
B
Yeah,
thank
you
and
again,
I
think
it's
important
to
understand
from
what
I've
seen
in
the
presentation
here
today:
the
difference,
the
difference
between
a
regular
business
and
someone
that
just
comes
to
do
something
for
one
day
or
something
less
than
three
days
in
a
year.
But
again
that's
the
educational
piece,
and
if
there
are
some
other
special
circumstances,
then
we
need
to
understand
that
as
well.
So
if
I
could
I
can
either
do
it
now
or
speak
to
some
of
you
offline.
B
B
B
J
To
assure
a
quorum
when
we
have
our
meetings,
is
it
necessary
that
we
have
a
monthly
meeting
or
if
we
were
to
take,
say,
vacation
time,
June,
June,
July
and
August,
and
we
may
not
have
a
full
Quorum?
Is
it
possible
that
we
can
take
off
a
month
or
two
there
or
now
I.
B
F
B
Yeah
I
think
we
need
to
to
approve
the
schedule
and
if
we
need
more
to
adjust
it
from
month
to
month,
we
can
make
that
decision.
One
of
the
decisions
that
we've
talked
about
already
is
that
possibly
will
not
meet
next
month
in
December
right
right,
because
I
think
a
lot
of
Staff
will
be
out
of
place.
I
know,
I'll
be
busy
and
it'll
be
the
holiday.
So
that's
one
of
the
things
we
consider,
but
it
is
on
the
general
schedule.
B
I
B
J
If
we're
trying
to
get
a
a
fuller
attendance
from
the
public,
it
is
this
time
better
served
at
one
o'clock,
or
should
we
do
it
alternate
the
times,
maybe
like
going
into
the
communities
I
think
that
was
something
that
we
had
done
in
the
past,
maybe
and
have
a
couple
of
meetings
in
the
community,
and
you
know
we
could
alternate
it
there.
J
B
B
If
you
have
any
thoughts
about
one
o'clock,
I
I'm,
okay
with
the
one
o'clock
time
I,
don't
know
what
others
think
I
apologize
Mr.
Hence
if
that
doesn't
work
for
you
as
well.
F
B
A
F
B
I'll
have
a
proposed
would
keep
it
at
Monday's
at
one
o'clock
and
if
we
can
maybe
revisit
this
maybe
halfway
through
the
year,
then
we
can
try
to
see
if
how
that's
working
or
if
we
can
make
some
other
adjustments
and
again
we
always
have
the
ability
to
call
a
special
meeting
and
make
a
change
in
our
monthly
meetings.
B
B
C
B
Yes,
okay,
staff
report,
Delinquent
Tax,
historic
neighbors
design,
studio
and
the
Town
open
positions,
update
home,
safe
to
repair
and
the
sewer
connection
program,
update
all
by
Missy
Lewis.
H
So
the
Delinquent
Tax
sale,
update
last
month,
I
indicated
that
we
had
been
sharing
the
the
updates
with
you
weekly
up
until
the
tax
sale
itself.
There
were.
There
were
two
properties
that
were
sold
they're
again
in
the
Redemption
period
for
a
year
plus
a
day,
so
I
will
no
longer
include
the
Delinquent
Tax
sale
update
on
the
agendas
until
we
roll
around
to
in
advance
of
tax
season
in
2023.
So
right
now
the
only
status
update
that
I
have
again
is
the
same.
H
H
As
far
as
town
of
Hilton
had
job
openings,
we
currently
still
have
the
senior
planner
of
cultural
and
historic
preservation.
We
have
9-1-1
Public,
Safety,
telecommunicator,
trainee,
principal
planner.
They
can
see
temporary
admin
assistant
in
Revenue,
Services
and
Community
planning,
as
well
as
a
transportation
engineer.
So
those
are
also
they
were
included
in
your
packet
and
they're
also
available
on
our
jobs
board
on
our
website
and
now
on
home
safety
and
repair
and
Sewer
connection.
There
was
an
update
that
was
included
in
the
packet
for
home
safety
and
repair.
H
B
Do
we
happen
to
know
who
the
Delinquent
Tax
of
those
two
properties
are.
H
I
On
the
sewer
connection,
obviously
we
want
everybody
on
the
island
connected
to
the
Sewer.
So
are
we
are
we
waiting
for
applications
or
are
we
going
out
and
and
requesting
applications
it.
H
Was
highly
publicized,
we
had
a
really
strong,
Communications
rollout.
That
program
is
administered
through
deep
well,
and
so
there
are
some
who
qualify
for
Project
SAFE
the
program
that's
administered
through
deepwell
and
some
who
don't
meet
those
requirements
for
Project
SAFE.
That
then
can
apply
for
our
program.
Both
programs
are
receiving
a
lot
of
activity,
so
there
are
additional
connections
being
made
through
Project
Safe.
In
addition
to
the
town
sewer
connection
program.
K
Good
meeting
again,
almost
on
two
hours
here,
Mr
chairman,
you
asked
a
question
about
the
the
property
that
it
is
in
danger
of
being
lost
and
now
on
the
Redemption
list
and
I'm,
not
sure
Missy
I
know
you
said
it's
been
shared,
confidentially,
I
guess
I'm
a
little
confused,
because
I
thought
there
was
only
one
property
and
I
also
know
that
that
Redemption
list
is
of
public
record.
Isn't
it
yes,
so
there's
nothing
confidential
about
it.
K
I
think
it's
important
that
this
committee
knows
who
the
property
is:
okay,
just
as
we
have
made
some
ground
today
with
the
business
license
department
and
having
more
dialogue
as
to
how
that
process
worked,
and
that's
educating
people
I
think
the
same
is
with
the
property
taxes.
Okay,
I
have
met
with
one
family
a
couple
of
weeks
ago.
K
That
typically
is
on
the
Delinquent
Tax
list
and
they
had
asked
the
question
about
what
they
can
do
with
their
property,
and
they
want
to
misunderstanding
that
as
property
owners
could
not
go
through
the
design
studio,
okay
and
which
is
totally
untrue.
Okay,
but
that's
just
the
misconception.
K
So
I
just
encourage
that
we
share
those
families
with
the
committee
there's
a
lot
of
work
to
engage
with
folks
that
don't
have
a
full
understanding
of
the
process,
okay
and
that
that's
incumbent
of
us
on
this
committee
and
us
in
the
community
to
continue
those
dialogues.
K
So
if
we
have
some
hesitancy
between
staff
talking
to
the
committee,
then
that's
a
disconnect
I
think
we
need
to
share
information
that
is
publicly
also
available
number
one
and
secondly,
I
just
encourage
us
to
engage
with
those
families
when
we
can
to
educate
on
how
they
can
improve
the
situation,
because
that's
the
whole
purpose
of
this
committee.
That's
the
whole
purpose
of
this
effort.
It
goes
right
back
to
our
mission
statement.
Those
are
my
comments,
sir.
Thanks.
B
Into
to
his
point,
yes,
I'm,
pretty
sure
that
is
public
information
as
the
tax
sale
was
public
information,
but
we
should
have
that
information
shared
from
staff.
I,
don't
know
if
staff
wants
to
share
that
now.
H
B
A
B
B
We're
hoping
that,
just
as
we
did
with
the
pop-up
shops
item
today,
that
as
chairman
and
I,
can
continue
to
maybe
delegate
some
of
these
items
for
us
to
work
on,
so
that
we're
not
trying
to
solve
it
in
the
meetings
and
try
to
get
the
length
of
our
meetings
down
so
they're
a
little
bit
more
concise
and
I
won't
say
fruitful,
but
I
think
we
have
more
questions
at
the
meeting
and
we
should
probably
be
doing
a
little
bit
more
homework
in
between,
so
that
when
we
come
to
the
meetings,
it's
really
more
of
just
an
update
and
a
little
bit
more
productive
for
our
public
and
for
our
task
force,
and
maybe
not
so
labor
intensive
for
our
staff.
