Description
Town of Hilton Head Island, Gullah Geechee Land & Cultural Preservation Task Force Meeting September 12, at 1 PM
Meeting Agenda available at https://www.hiltonheadislandsc.gov/towncouncil/agendas
A
Welcome
to
the
town
of
hilton
head
island,
gullah,
gucci,
land
and
cultural
preservation
task
force
meeting.
This
is
september
the
12th,
and
we
are
officially
calling
this
meeting
to
order.
I
want
to
thank
those
of
you
who
are
in
the
public
for
being
here
and
certainly
want
to
acknowledge
my
colleagues
and
the
staff
here
at
the
town
of
hilton
head.
A
Okay
passes
unanimously,
not
opposed
okay,
very
good.
We
have
some
minutes
from
july
the
11th,
and
hopefully
we
had
a
chance
to
read
through
those.
If
there
are
no
revisions
or
corrections.
I
would
like
to
entertain
a
motion
to
approve
the
minutes
of
the
july
11th
meeting.
Some
some
moves,
mr
malik,
is
offering
the
motion.
Is
there
a
second?
A
G
G
G
G
A
E
Missy
lewis,
community
planning
manager,
we
do
have
a
different
definition
between
what
is
considered
an
open-air
sales,
and
I
think
what
this
is
is
somebody
operating
under
open-air
sales
and,
yes,
they
do
have
to
have
a
business
license.
I
can
certainly
work
with
miss
tracy
on
getting
all
the
answers
that
she's
looking
for
outside
of
this
meeting.
But
if
you
could
give
me
your
contact
information
I'd
be
happy
to
work
with
you
on
it.
Thank
you.
H
H
E
B
E
H
I
guess
the
the
main
issue
is
that
it
seemed
like
she
did
all
those
steps
and,
for
some
reason,
was
still
basically
denied.
So
I'm
not
sure-
and
there
seemed
to
have
not
been
an
explanation
other
than
one
one
activity
or
event
is
defined
one
way
and
the
others
to
find
another
which
still
didn't
lend
her
the
opportunity
to
to
have
the
event
that
had
been
hailed
several
times
without
any
any
real
incident.
So
I
don't
know
what
has
changed.
E
H
So
you
know
my
concern
is,
is
that
you
know
if
this
task
force,
if
we
put
forth
these
efforts-
and
we
are
told
that
these
events
are
going
to
be
supported
and
then,
when
time
comes,
you
know
the
support
to
continue
for
our
community
to
to
exhibit
their.
Where
there's
you
know
we
run
into
what
is
what
we
feel
normally
happens
when
our
community
come.
You
know
we
get.
You
know
9
000,
different
things
that
come
up,
that
we
seem
to
not
be
able
to
continue
or
move
forward.
H
A
Okay,
great
thank
you,
missy
and
thank
you
miss
young
for
bringing
that
to
our
attention,
and
this
is
just
another
example
of
how
the
cultures
exist
in
our
community
and
just
not
having
a
clear
understanding
of
how
we
can
make
it
work.
I'm
hoping
and
trusting
that
staff
will
look
at
a
way
to
find
out
how
to
make
it
work
and,
as
mr
simmons
said,
not
just
a
kind
of
a
closed
door
that
we
just
can't
make
it
happen.
A
We
just
have
to
make
sure
that
this
is
also,
I
think,
a
part
of
another
item.
That's
on
our
agendas,
that's
the
educational
program,
and
that
we
understand
that
working
in
this
community
and
certainly
trying
to
preserve
this
culture
that
we
have
a
clear
understanding
of
how
we
operate
in
the
community.
A
A
E
Thank
you.
Everyone,
missy
lewis,
community
planning
manager
again
for
the
record
in
your
packet
today,
was
a
document
of
all
of
the
recommendations
in
the
report,
instead
of
just
the
top
16
that
we
had
been
reporting
out
on,
and
I
wanted
to
both
go
through
what
we've
done
with
this
report,
but
also
kind
of
talk
about
the
next
steps
for
how
we're
going
to
go
through
this.
How
we
proceed
with
you,
monthly
and
and
go
from
there.
So
today
we
have
all
of
the
recommendations
in
the
report
in
one
critical
path
document.
E
E
So
the
report
in
front
of
you
was
organized
in
basically,
we
have
color-coded
the
priority
recommendations
are
in
orange
and
then
the
blue
color
are
the
remaining
21
or
the
other
21
recommendations.
So
when
you
look
through
the
report,
you'll
notice,
if
it's
a
path
item,
that's
in
orange
again,
that's
the
priority.
E
The
top
16
priority
in
blue
would
be
the
other
21,
but
again
they're,
bundled
up
again,
as
it
was
organized
in
the
original
report,
where
you
had
three
main
implementation
categories:
cultural
preservation,
public
policies
and
heirs
property,
and
then
there
were
subcategories
within
each
of
those
main
implementation
strategy.
Buckets
and
so
we've
reorganized
the
report
back
into
the
structure
that
was
identified
in
the
report
and
our
goal
is
to
go
over
the
path
that
we've
been
down
as
far
as
implementation
goes,
our
progress
notes
and
where
we
hope
to
go
to
advance
each
goal
forward.
E
E
We've
included
all
of
the
recommendations
from
the
airs
property
strategy
and
then
just
the
top
four
within
public
policy,
and
because
it's
extremely
long
and
so
we've
saved
those
for
the
rest
of
them
for
a
future
meeting,
certainly
they're
all
located
in
the
report.
That's
in
paper
in
front
of
you
today,
so
all
of
them
are
included
in
the
document.
I
don't
know
how
much
we're
actually
going
to
get
through
today,
because
we
talk
about
progress,
steps
and
what
we're
going
to
do
to
advance
them.
E
We
haven't
talked
in
a
meeting
in
some
time
about
the
other
21,
so
it
might
be
that
you're,
seeing
some
of
those
implementation
paths
and
progress
steps
for
the
first
time.
So,
but
that's
what
we've
that's,
how
it's
been
reorganized
in
front
of
you
today,
so
I
just
wanted
to
get
you
acclimated
to
the
new
structure,
and
hopefully
this
will
help
walk
us
through
in
a
more
organized
fashion.
How
we're
implementing!
I
think,
you'll
notice
a
lot
of
themes
in
implementation,
especially
in
the
cultural
preservation
strategy,
and
I
put
on
your
desk
today
as
well.
E
Those
themes
or
implementation
themes
are
at
the
back
of
the
report.
That's
in
the
packet
they're
on
page
19
of
that
some
of
the
other
major
implementation
steps
that
are
necessary
to
advance.
Quite
a
few
of
the
projects
within
this
document
are
to
hire
our
senior
planner
culture
and
historic
preservation,
staff,
member,
which
we
currently
have
that
position
out
and
we're
seeking
applications.
E
We
would
love
to
get
that
filled
right
away
and,
of
course,
we
need
someone
on
staff
to
implement
a
lot
of
these
critical
path,
steps
and
progress,
steps.
So
you'll
notice
that
there
are
some
themes
in
there
and
certainly
having
a
staff.
Member
in-house
to
execute
is
is
definitely
one
of
those
important
steps
to
getting
this
accomplished.
E
I
E
And
this
would
be
this
one
would
be
on
page
one
of
the
written
report,
that's
in
your
packet
and
we
tied
that
to-
I
don't
think
the
mouse
anyway.
It
says
page
one
after
the
the
report
item
there
to
tie
it
back
to
the
the
written
document.
That's
in
the
presentation
ties
back
to
the
report,
that's
in
the
packet
okay,
so
this
one's
on
page
one
and
what
this
this
is.
E
We've
we've
gone
over
this
path
in
these
progress
steps
before,
but
this
is
to
promote
the
use
of
the
heritage,
library
foundation's
resources
and
to
encourage
research
into
history
and
genealogy,
and
we've
taken
the
step
to
launch
the
uscb
airs
property
family
research
project
in
february
of
this
year,
and
we
have
another
action
step
to
upgrade
our
what
we're
calling
now
the
gala
resource
center.
We
have
a
education
and
resource
document
page
on
the
gala
website
that
we
have
where
we
have
all
of
this
information.
E
The
information
about
family
compound
family
subdivision,
so
that
section
on
our
website
already
has
an
education
section
and
we
hope
to
make
it
a
more
interactive,
24
7
resource
center
and
it's
a
place
where
we
can
house.
It
already
includes
information
about
this
program
and
the
ayers
property
family
research
project,
but
it
may
not
be
somewhere
that
people
are
actively
seeking
this
information,
so
we
want
to
make
it
more
of
a
publicly
facing
page.
It's
varied.
I
could.
E
And
so
we
already
have
again
a
lot
of
this
information
on
our
website,
and
so
we
just
hope
to
repackage
it
in
a
way
that
it's
more
useful
and
people
are
able
to
access
that
information
regularly
and
you'll
see
what
we're
calling
gullah
resource
center
repeated
in
many
implementation
strategies
throughout
the
critical
path.
Steps
for
a
number
of
different
report
recommendations.
E
C
I
E
E
E
E
So
again,
I
know
that,
like
we
have
not
gone
through
all
of
these
other
21
report
items
and
a
progress
and
path
for
completion,
so
also
you
may
not
have
ever
looked
at
the
office
of
cultural
affairs
strategic
plan
before
so.
This
is
a
lot
of
information
that
we're
throwing
at
you
right
now,
and
I
just
wanted
to
let
you
know
that
I
think
we
can
achieve
success
by
working
together.
E
Also
point
out
that
the
office
of
cultural
affairs
director
position
is
also
one
of
the
vacancies
we
have
and
it
was
included
in
that
job
list
that
was
sent
to
you
all
as
well.
Certainly,
there's
a
lot
of
implementation,
steps
that
have
some
overlap
with
the
goals
and
objectives
of
the
gala
gucci
task
force.
Certainly
any
you
know,
recruiting
or
sharing
of
that
opening
with
anyone
within
your
networks
would
be
much
appreciated.
E
E
There
are
signs
in
the
progress
steps
here
on
the
cultural
chair,
trail,
there's
a
pamphlet
and
then
there's
some
qr
code
implementation
as
well.
So
certainly
there
could
be
potentially
more
done,
but
just
want
to
go
through
these
and
then
maybe
at
the
next
meeting
we
can
kind
of
gauge.
You
know
the
progress
and
implementation
and
have
we
achieved
this
report
objective
or
not.
E
Cp6
is
also
within
the
other
21
program
bucket,
to
establish
a
program
for
local
students
to
conduct
oral
history
interviews.
There
are
some
critical
path,
ways
to
get
there
that
are
identified
here.
There's
been
no
progress
made
to
date.
Yet
on
this
item,
certainly
any
input
on
that
would
be
welcome
either
now
or
in
the
future.
We
could
talk
through
this
one.
E
Cp7
has
been
in
front
of
you
before,
and
we've
talked
about
it,
the
last
several
meetings.
This
was
one
of
our
high
priority
top
16
projects
to
establish
the
program
to
educate
town
officials,
school
teachers
and
other
others
on
gulliculture,
and
this
is,
we
have
of
course,
created
and
taken
through
this
body.
E
The
gullah
history
and
cultural
education
program,
which
I
mentioned
is
going
before
town
council,
a
resolution
on
september
20th
and
hopefully
that
will
be
on
its
way
and
we'll
get
the
the
program
rather
fleshed.
Out
and
again,
we
promised
that
this
would
that
program
would
come
back
to
this
body
to
be
previewed
in
advance
of
its
implementation
to
staff.
A
And
I
don't
know
that
we
are
going
to
be
able
to
do
a
lot,
because
there
is
a
lot
of
information
that
we
need
to
take
in.
But
the
question
was
raised
earlier
about
the
reading
for
the
educational
program.
Will
that
require
two
readings
from
town
council
or
will
it
be
passed
in
the
next
meeting
or
whatever?
That
vote
comes
out?.
A
E
Certainly,
it
was
written
into
that
program
that
the
person
that
would
be
implementing
the
program
and
offering
the
education
course
is
the
senior
planner
cultural
and
historic
preservation
person,
which
is
a
vacant
position.
So
we
would
like
to
have
that
person
in
place
to
be
able
to
implement
the
program
yeah.
E
E
E
Cp
10
through
13
are
all
in
the
other
21
priority
level,
so
cp10
is
promote,
call
the
cultural
resources
more
prominently,
you'll
see.
A
lot
of
these
recommendations
are
very
similar
to
each
other,
and
you
can
see
why
a
lot
of
them.
The
path
that
we've
identified
is
within
the
cultural
affairs
work
and
their
strategic
plan
provide
technical
and
financial
support
to
businesses
whose
products
and
our
services
are
strongly
tied
to
gula
culture.
E
E
Number
12
is
establish
a
authenticity
certification
program,
and
this
is
also
some
of
the
critical
path
includes
nipka
again,
there
have
has
been
some
progress
to
use
the
logo.
That's
been
part
of
the
branding
for
all
the
work
with
this
program
and
all
of
the
implementation
from
the
task
force
has
included
that
branding.
E
I
think
the
past
conversations
with
some
of
these
groups
were
only
for
implementation
of
those
projects
that
were
within
the
top
16.
again.
This
is
another
21
sort
of
bucket
of
priorities
here,
so
number
14
was
one
that
is
in
the
the
top
16
priority.
You
can
see
it's
in
orange
here
again.
This
is
the
open
air
market.
There
there
has
been
some
progress.
E
There
was
a
market
held
at
low
country
celebration
park.
There
was
a
critical
path
identified
to
meet
with
nipka
and
talk
about
them
to
develop
a
strategic
plan
and
implement
a
regular
market.
We
are
going
to
look
at.
We
came
up
with
a
plan
to
coordinate
with
other
area
markets
and
work
on
best
practices,
how
they
implement
theirs.
E
E
E
E
E
There
has
not
been
any
progress
to
date
on
that
there
were
some
strategies
identified
in
another
21
strategy
document
that
was
in
our
records.
That's
what
we
included
in
here.
Certainly,
we
would
welcome
some
thoughts
on
that.
We've
made
no
progress
to
date
on
implementing
this
particular
piece.
Certainly
I
have
some.
E
We
certainly
have
all
of
the
slides
that
we
could
pull
up.
If
you
had
a
report
item
from
the
public
policy
category
or
implementation
strategy
that
you
wanted
to
talk
about,
we
could
we
could
fast
forward
to
that.
If
we
need
to
but
you'll
notice
that
in
the
public
policy
section,
there
are
a
number
of
higher
priority
projects
that
are
in
orange,
as
well
as
quite
a
few
that
are
in
blue
that
were
in
the
other
21
priority
area.
E
E
Pp2
was
to
fast
track
the
review
process
for
development
applications
within
the
overlay.
We
have
done
a
prioritization
for
family
compound
and
family
subdivision
applications
and
also
have
an
expedited
review
requirement
for
design
studio
requests.
So
those
are
already
in
place
again.
We
could
create
a
standard
operating
procedure
internally
to
make
sure
that
that
is
institutionalized
for
all
staff,
current
staff
and
future
staff.
E
E
We
have
a
report
later
in
the
agenda
to
go
over
its
success,
but
within
that
design
studio
we
highlight
in
a
bi-weekly
meeting
among
staff,
regular
development
barriers
or
themes.
We
see
with
questions
that
we're
working
through
with
design
studio
applicants,
so
we'll
continue
to
do
that
and
again
we'll
create
that
standard
operating
procedure
to
make
sure
that
this
is
part
of
our
regular
ongoing
business
activities
within
the
town
to
prioritize
and
fast
track.
These
types
of
reviews.
E
E
We
are
going
to
be
talking
later.
There
is
a
staff
report
on
the
mid-island
development
area
and
there
is
some
implementation
steps
for
the
historic
neighborhoods
within
that
district
that
we'll
talk
about
in
that
agenda
item
that
I
think
will
achieve
part
of
what's
being
recommended
here.
Two
months
ago,
when
we
met
we
talked
about
that.
We
were
looking
at
folding
in
this
recommendation
instead
of
through
an
overlay
but
through
a
base
zoning
structure
where
it
wouldn't
be
through
the
overlay
so
they're.
E
A
E
E
So
here
the
first
one
hp
1
is
was
one
of
our
critical
top
16
items
and
it
was
to
utilize
the
heritage,
library
foundation
as
a
first
step
toward
clearing
titles
and
overcome
air
properties
issues.
Here's
property
excuse
me
and
again,
the
family
research
project
has
been
launched
and
is
in
place,
and
we
think
one
of
the
other
action
steps
is
to
continue
to
promote
that,
but
also
to
have
more
information
on
that
resource
center
that
we
talked
about
previously.
E
This
is
something
that
we
could.
We
already
have
all
of
these
resources.
All
of
these
organizations
are
currently
in
our
education
area.
Certainly,
we
could
again,
like
we
said
before,
enhance
that
resource
center
to
be
a
more
interactive
and
easy
to
find
resource
for
people,
because
we
already
include
all
of
these
wonderful
organizations
and
and
how
to
reach
them
on
our
website.
I
just
don't
think
it's
very
well
known
that
the
information
is
out
there.
So
that's
what
we
propose
to
do
for
this.
One.
E
E
If
not,
we
would
like
to
discuss
if
we
have
a
more
robust
resource
center.
If
that
achieves
the
goal
and
we're
able
to
come
to
consensus
on
that
so
hp4s,
the
gullah
task
force
recommends
the
that
nipka
work
with
the
community
foundation
of
the
low
country
to
set
up
a
fund
to
pay
for
the
cost
of
clearing
title
for
ayers
property.
E
E
So
that
is
all
I
have
as
far
as
the
new
structure
and
going
over
at
a
high
level
what
we
have
included
in
the
document.
Again,
it's
there's
more
detail
in
the
report.
That's
in
the
packet
and
we're
really
looking
for
you
know
some
consensus
on
the
critical
path
and
the
path
and
the
progress
steps
to
get
there
and
then
at
some
point,
when
we're
able
to
weigh
in
on
the
level
of
completeness
or
grading,
have
we
accomplished
these
recommendation
goals
or
not
we'll
have
that
conversation
when
we're
when
we're
ready,
but.
I
E
A
Things
like
that
those
are,
in
my
mind,
very,
very
closely
related,
and
the
last
thing
I
wanted
to
mention
that
I
think
is
going
to
help
move
a
lot
of
these
along
as
well
is
that
we
are
certainly
watching
from
some
sort
of
a
distance
of
what
happens
with
our
community
development
corporation
that
economic
development
corporation.
I
also
think,
would
be
an
important
piece
for
the
historic
administrator
to
work
with
that
will
help
move
some
of
these
recommendations
along.
A
I
do
know
that
this
is
something
that
mr
hintz
has
been
asking
us
about
at
just
about.
Every
meeting
is
to
kind
of
have
this
in
front
of
us
so
that
we
continue
to
be
educated
as
well
on
the
report,
and
we
know
what
we're
looking
at,
and
I
appreciate
you
putting
this
together,
not
just
the
16
top
priority
recommendations,
but
all
of
them
and
in
the
past
we've
recognized
some
of
them
as
what
we
call
low-hanging
fruit.
A
When
we
mentioned
to
like
the
resource
center.
I
know
that,
certainly,
as
we've
gone
through
the
pandemic,
we've
had
to
do
a
lot
of
things
online
and
on
the
internet,
but
we're
certainly
hoping
that
we'll
have
some
physical
space
too,
where
folks
can
come
to
the
town
and
see
these
reports
or
get
to
get
the
education
that
that
they
need.
A
C
E
E
I
C
C
On
this
one
item,
it's
not
it's
not
a
priority,
but
the
one
that
cp-18
has
caused
for
land
owners
to
be
paired
up
with
potential
private
developers.
Yes,
a
clinical
path
suggests
that
the
towns
not
be
a
part
of
that,
but
now
wouldn't
it
be
necessary
for
the
town
to
certainly
be
aware
of
that
partnership
so
that
the
family
and
the
potential
developer
and
the
town
are
on
the
same
pages
and
try
to
move
forward.
E
Oh,
yes,
definitely
certainly
be
a
part
of
the
conversation
for
what
development
is
is
feasible
and
possible.
That's
the
town's
role
in
all
future
development
and
opportunity
is
to
to
kind
of
gauge
that
or
offer
that
metric
of
yeah.
Your
density
is
this.
You
could
build
this
many
square
feet
of
that.
Okay,.
C
E
C
C
D
D
I
mean
one
of
the
things
that
that
I'm
thinking
is
there's
just
so
much
going
on
yeah.
Is
there
a
guiding
light
or
or
or
a
vision
that
that
we
have
for
that
ties
all
this
together?
Is
there?
Is
there
a
view
to
what
we
would
like
to
to
strive
for,
and
I'm
sure
I
got
in
late,
but
all
of
these
things
are
are
for
a
purpose
to
get
us
somewhere.
E
E
A
And
maybe
help
you
out
a
little
bit
but
of
course,
several
years
ago,
when
the
town
identified
the
gulagici
culture
as
something
that
was
kind
of
endangered
and
that's
where
the
efforts
were
put
in
place
to
preserve
the
culture
and
hence
out
of
the
planning
commission,
the
task
force
was
created.
So
that's
a
lot
of
why
we're
here
now.
I
think
that
part
of
the
questions
you're
asking
about
is
certainly
clear
leadership,
and
so
good
luck
with
that.
A
A
H
Thank
you,
mr
chair.
I
guess
I
have
a
question
of
clarification.
It
seems
like
a
lot,
as
mr
hamster
said
this.
This
is
a
lot
of
information
and
I
guess
I
heard
you
say
that
a
lot
of
this
is
going
to
hinge
and
on
if
an
administrator
is
hired
in
order
to
move
forward.
Is
that
exactly
it?
If
we
do
not
have
an
administrator,
something
that
will
not
move
forward
or
which
parts
of
it
will
or
will
not?.
E
Well,
we
have
a
vacancy
for
the
senior
planner
cultural
and
historic
preservation
position,
which
used
to
be
the
historic
neighborhood
administrator.
The
title
changed,
but
it's
the
it's
the
role
of
the
person
that
would
staff
the
task
force
and
be
the
main
implementor
of
all
of
the
report
items
so
that
person
would
be
working
on
all
of
this
implementation
within
you
know
my
oversight
under
community
planning
division.
E
F
E
E
H
A
H
Know
that's
you
know
I
mean
and
that's
no
reflection
on
anyone
and
all
of
us
who
has
been
working.
I
mean.
Obviously
you
don't
get
this
report
without
somebody
working.
You
know
the
idea
of
somebody
working
goes
back
to
what
tom
said
earlier.
What's
the
what
is
the
bottom
line
goal
and
what's
the
picture
you
know
if
the
picture
is
already
painted,
we
still
have
to
get
there
and
I
just
you
know
it
would
be
a
not
good.
E
E
We
certainly
intend
to
reach
out
to
them
further
talk
about
other
strategies,
work
with
other
market
vendors
on
what
is
their
operational
plan
look
like?
Who,
who
conducts
it
who's
involved
are?
Is
there
a
collaboration?
There
may
be
some
other
structures
to
look
at
instead
of
just
saying:
okay,
nipka,
you
you
launched
this
thing.
There
could
be
some
other
way
to
do
it,
and
I
think
there
is,
and
so.
F
E
E
J
E
I
F
A
A
So
there
has
been
some
discussion
on
that,
but
I
don't
think
they've
made
much
more
progress
on
that
and
again
in
my
mind,
those
kinds
of
efforts
and
that
requisite
recommendation
in
particular
may
be
something
that
will
help
will
come
from
like
an
economic
corporation
development
all
right.
So
that's
why
I
say.
Even
as
we
look
at
this
report
and
as
miss
ferrara
says,
she
just
pulled
that
language
forward.
A
We
have
to
look
at
this
group
some
fresh
eyes
and
see
if
some
of
these
things
need
to
be
revised
or
see
where
we
are
and
then
we
can
actually
grade
ourselves
and
hopefully
we
can
get
to
that
a-plus
status
and
also
trying
to
address
the
other
concerns
that
we
had
missy
lueck
and
other
staff
members.
I
know
and
missy
in
particular,
she
and
I
have
been
having
some
conversations
and
kind
of
getting
together
and
see
where
we
are
so.
A
I
do
appreciate
this
report,
but
just
to
maybe
address
some
of
that
anxiety,
we're
gonna,
keep
working
on
we're
gonna
keep
pushing
forward.
We
hopefully
will
have
a
historic
preservation
administrator
in
place
and
if
you
could
maybe
remind
us
that
that
title
has
now
changed,
it
is
what
is
the
actual.
A
A
E
I
think
the
title
changed,
I'm
not
sure
of
what
substance
in
the
job
description
it
may
there
were
some
changes
organization
wide
with
some
title
changes
to
adjust
certain
titles
and
there
aren't
as
many
administrator
titles
out
there
anymore.
So
I
think
it
was
just
to
kind
of
create
more
uniform
structure.
F
A
A
E
So
look
to
that
and
that
report
is
coming
up
next,
but
and
there's
a
meeting
this
wednesday
to
talk
about
the
mid-island.
There's
a
workshop
with
town
council
to
talk
about
mid-island
and
all
of
the
recommendations
coming
out
of
that.
Some
of
those
strategies
could
help
us
implement
this
particular
report
item
and
so
that's
kind
of
where
we're
headed
with
that.
H
Yes,
as
I
have
a
comment,
it
appears
the
last
time
I
if
we
recall
when
we
set
out
some
of
the
guidelines,
went
up
for
the
buffers
and
set
back
all
of
those
seem
to
have
gone
through
as
as
outlined
from
the
task
force
as
we
studied.
But
then,
as
it
turned
out,
we
understood
that
there
was
a
requirement
for
planting
that
sort
of
then
overshadowed
all
that
have
been
accomplished
by
the
setbacks.
So
you
know
it
there
again.
H
It
seems
like
you
know,
those
items
that
you
know
lightens
the
load
and
something
else
comes
up
that
once
again,
you
know
creates
a
hurdle
again
for
moving
small
projects
forward.
So
I
just
always
like
to
ask
you
know
when
these
other
items
come
up
there,
they
have
a
way
to
sort
of
neutralize
that
which
have
gone
forward.
So
it
seems,
like
you
know.
We
missed
that
happy
median
where
the
requested
setbacks
and
all
come
in.
We
get
those.
H
But
then,
when
you
have
to
do
10
times
the
planning,
then
the
buffers
may
not
have
the
kind
of
value.
So
I
just
say
that
as
to
when
we
move
these
forwards-
and
we
find
that
it,
we
we
have
the
items
that
match.
You
know
we
have
these
unmatching
items
that
come
up
and
sort
of
you
know
appears
that
it's
the
two
steps
forward
and
three
steps
back
kind
of
thing.
So.
E
E
There
are
some
additional
challenges
that
have
surfaced
and,
and
the
landscaping
was
one
of
those
and
just
know
that
we
have
included
in
our
list
of
alabama
amendments
and
our
tier
three
priority
list
of
alamo
amendments
to
relook
at
family
compound
and
family
subdivision,
and
make
sure
that
we'll
we'll
take
a
closer
look.
Now
that
we
have
had
something
on
the
books.
We've
worked
with
families
to
try
to
implement,
based
on
what
code
was
adapted,
and
we
have
some
ideas
of
how
we
could
fix
the
code
to
implement
better.
E
D
E
We
think
that,
through
base
zoning
changes,
we
can
implement
the
the
task
objectives,
but
just
through
a
different
structure.
So
instead
of
an
overlay
that
applies-
and
you
have
to
go
to
a
separate
chapter
and
look
up
these
regulations,
we're
hoping
your
property
is
zoned,
say:
rm4,
you
go
to
the
arm4
section.
It
tells
you
what
you
can
do
through
base
zoning,
and
so
you
don't
have
to
flip
there
and
find
out
what
your
zone
and
then
go.
E
Look
at
the
overlay
and
look
at
a
bunch
of
different
standards
in
the
overlay
that
we
can
streamline
the
process
and
make
it
easier
for
everyone
to
implement
what
they
can
do.
Correct
yeah,
so
base
zoning
still
achieving
the
goals
and
objectives
from
a
number
of
the
report.
Recommendations
within
the
public
policy
section.
E
C
A
E
I'm
giving
all
the
report
updates.
Sorry,
as
I
alluded
to
for
the
mid-island
district
this
wednesday
at
nine
o'clock.
Town
council
is
doing
a
workshop
and
it
will
consider
redevelopment
strategies
and
initiatives
for
the
mid-island
district
and
the
mid-island
tract.
It
includes
conceptual
phase
plans
for
construction
of
the
103
acre
park.
That's
proposed,
as
well
as
a
district-wide
redevelopment
strategy.
E
There
are
five
historic
neighborhoods
within
the
district
area
boundary
and
this
gulagici
culture
preservation
project
report
was
used
within
the
report
framework
to
provide
district
recommendations
and
next
month,
as
we
had
already
indicated,
the
consultants
are
programmed.
We
hope
that
they'll
be
here
before
your
board
to
kind
of
go
over
what's
proposed
in
the
mid-island
district
area,.
E
A
E
Either.
Waiting
for
more
information
from
the
applicant
for
families
to
get
together
have
a
family
meeting
and
talk
about
kind
of
how
they
want
to
proceed.
But
but
we
work
with
we're
working
actively
with
a
number
of
families
again
on
a
lot
of
land
development
questions,
and
most
of
them
include
the
creation
of
a
concept
plan,
or
maybe
multiple
concept
plans
to
go
over
possible
development
scenarios
that
they
might
be
looking
at
on
their
property.
C
E
E
C
C
E
That's
correct,
okay
and
there's
still
they
would
remain
with
the
same
planner
that
was
identified
during
their
design
studio
process.
So
they
have.
They
have
a
resource
person
throughout
the
rest
of
the
process.
But
when
the
conceptual
phase
that
design
studio
handles
is
completed,
then
I
mark
that,
as
as
complete
that
design
studio
is
complete.
C
E
E
We
are
always
actively
recruiting
for
all
of
our
positions,
so
there's
again,
two
of
them
that
directly
impact
the
golgichi
task
force
as
we've
already
identified
the
senior
planner
culture
and
historic
preservation,
and
then
the
director
of
cultural
affairs,
but
certainly
there's
public
safety,
telecommunicator
trainee,
administrative
report,
building
inspector
firefighters
facilities,
techs
storm
water
manager,
transportation,
engineer,
that's
the
list.
We
have
open
right
now.
E
All
right
in
your
packet,
so
I'm
gonna,
do
both
home
safety
and
sewer
connect
kind
of
together,
but
for
home
safety
and
repair
in
your
packet.
There
was
the
contractors
needed
flyer,
so
we've
launched
the
home
safety
and
repair
program
in
july.
We
are
now
at
the
step
where
we
need
to
get
qualified
contractors
to
do
the
work
from
the
to
implement
the
program.
So
if
you
know
anyone
within
your
contacts,
that
is
a
contractor,
we
really
encourage
them
to
apply.
E
My
contact
information
is
included
on
the
flyer.
They
can
apply
through
me
or
get
further
information
about
the
contractors
that
we're
looking
for
for
the
program,
but
generally
we're
looking
for
general
contractors,
carpenters,
electricians,
hvac,
roofers
tree
experts,
painters
that
kind
of
thing
so,
overall,
with
the
program
as
of
last
friday.
These
are
the
numbers
they
change
daily
for
home
safety
and
repair.
E
We
have
62
applications
received
33
of
those
have
already
been
vetted
and
approved,
meaning
that
they
meet
the
income
qualifications
and
and
we're
advancing
them
through
site
visits,
and
then
implementation
we're
working
with
right
now
about
16
of
them
have
their
information
sent
over
for
income.
Verification
step
and
then
10
of
those
have
we
need
additional
information
from
them,
so
their
applications
are
incomplete
and
we're
working
with
those
applicants.
E
And
then
three
applicants
did
not
meet
the
income
qualifications,
so
they
did
not
meet
the
program
requirements
for
the
sewer
connection
program.
We've
had
eight
applications
turned
in
and
four
of
them
have
had
the
town
letter
of
approval
and
four
of
them
were
waiting
for
psd
to
provide
the
estimate
for
that
connection.
E
Sure
so
both
programs
were
launched
in
early
july.
Both
of
them
were
funded
through
the
american
rescue
plan
act,
so
the
town
received
some
funding.
The
home
safety
and
repair
program
has
a
total
of
four
hundred
thousand
dollars
that
was
awarded
and
the
sewer
connection
program
has
two
hundred
thousand
dollars
total.
E
E
There's
a
fifteen
thousand
dollar
limit
per
household
I'll.
Just
say
that
probably
fifteen
thousand
dollars
is
only
going
to
make
a
small
dent
in
some
of
the
repairs
that
are
needed
in
some
of
these
homes.
So
it's
a
really
it's
a
much
needed
program
and
I'm
happy
that
we
got
it
launched
and
off
the
ground,
and
so
we're
really
looking
for
those
contractors.
E
K
I
know
that
beaufort
county
currently
has
a
waiver
of
fees
in
place.
You
know
that
the
town
of
hilton
head
does
not
have,
and
that's
based
on
impact
fees
and
that's
based
on
your
income.
That's
a
program.
That's
already
slated
is
in
place
that
we
can
mimic
here
on
hilton
head,
because
you
have.
You
know
a
lot
of
folks
that
would
qualify
for
waiver
of
the
impact
fees,
but
they
just
don't
know
about
it.
K
I
mean
I've
worked
with
citizens
here
who
qualified,
beaufort
county
would
waive
the
impact
fee,
but
hilton
head
didn't
have
anything
in
place
to
waive
the
fee.
So
it's
an
opportunity
to
help
help
people
out
that
that's
there.
It's
in
place,
and
I
think
we
just
probably
need
to
dig
a
little
bit
deeper
into
finding
out
how
they
got
it
implemented
in
how
we
can
kind
of
piggyback
on
what
they're
doing
as
well.
K
K
I
know
that
at
one
time
there
was
like
a
hundred
thousand
dollars
that
was
slated
for
task
force
to
work
with.
I
don't
know
promoting
what
the
task
force
was
doing.
You
know
if
those
funds
I
mean,
I'm
not
sure
if
they
have
depleted,
but
if
there's
funds
available
that
can
be
utilized,
you
know
for
young
entrepreneurs
to
help
advertise
what
they're
doing
to
contact
and
reach
out
to
the
public
through
some
of
those
funds.
K
K
Markets
should
remain
in
our
community.
They
should
not
be,
in
my
opinion,
down
on
the
south
end,
I
mean
we
need
to
get
people
into
our
community
to
cater
to
our
businesses
at
home.
I
mean,
I
think
the
south
end
has
enough
tourists
down
there.
The
chamber
and
everybody
else
does
enough
with
promoting
tourists
down
there.
You
know,
let's
get
them
into
our
communities,
to
support
our
young
entrepreneurs.
K
Cp
11
talked
about
funds
for
products
and
services
again
the
hundred
thousand
dollars.
If
there's
a
way
the
other
thing
I
I
really
want
some
clarification
and
it
was,
is.
I
think
I
watched
the
meeting
here
the
other
day.
I
think
sean
collins
made
a
comment
about
the
workforce
density
and
the
bonus
densities.
That's
afforded
for
works
for
workforce
housing,
and
I
just
really.
I
just
want
more
clarification.
K
If,
if,
if
someone
was
proposing
to
develop
their
property
for
workforce
housing,
are
they
allotted
the
bonus
density
to
be
increased
based
on
the
amount
of
homes
or
units
are
going
to
be,
can
be
slated
for
workforce?
So
if
I
have
a
four
units
per
acre
zone-
and
I
have
an
acre
and
I
build-
and
I
I
present
an
option
for
eight
units
of
being
workforce-
well
I'll
be
allowed
to
do
that.
You
know
if
my
zoning
is
only
zoned
four
units
per
acre.
K
My
understanding
was,
I
mean
just
listening
to
the
comment,
how
it
was
presented
that
if
you
present
your
property
as
workforce
housing,
you
are
allowed,
you
can
be
qualified
for
that
workforce.
Housing.
Is
there
a
way
that
can
be
clarified?
I
can
talk
about
that
yeah,
okay,
all
right
yeah!
I
just
need
to
understand.
I
thought
it
was
based
on
a
certain
amount
of
acreage
or
something
like
that
at
one
time,
but
it
it
came
out
as
though,
if
you
presented
it
as
a
workforce,
housing
development,
you
can
get
your
density
doubled.
K
A
Appreciate
it,
thank
you.
Those
are
very
good
questions.
Missy.
You
took
note
of
that
yeah.
Okay,
would
you
would
you
like
to
speak
to
that
now?
Please,
because
I
we,
I
think
we
had
some
questions
up
here
as
well
and
including
your
answer
for
us.
What
percentage
of
the
projects
in
place
now
have
to
be
workforce
housing
if
you're
doing
other
developments
or
just
a
regular
development?
Is
it
twenty
percent?
Is
it
fifteen
percent
revenue.
E
E
There
is
a
density
bonus
that
that
can
be
offered
based
on
the
number
of
units
that
your
that
the
developer
is
proposing
to
meet
workforce
and
meet
a
certain
percentage
of
ami,
and
so
it
can
be
up
to
12.
Units
per
acre
is
the
maximum
that
you
could
go
as
far
as
what
what's
applicable
through
that
program
and
then
they're
also
in
the
commercial
districts.
E
Not
through
the
town's
workforce,
housing
program
has
enacted
currently
no
and
if
the
workforce,
housing
amendment
there's
some
interactive
map
of
properties
that
are
eligible
and
on
the
town's
website.
A
lot
of
these
major
initiatives,
including
the
galakichi
report
and
all
of
its
work,
are
under
the
major
initiatives
tab,
workforce
housing
is,
is
on
there
and
all
of
the
program.
Qualifications
are
there
as
well
as
an
interactive,
interactive
map
that
shows
all
the
properties
that
are
eligible
within
our
program.
E
C
C
C
E
Correct
and
that's
meeting
our
definition
of
workforce
housing
and
certainly
there
are
a
lot
of
other
affordable
housing
components.
You
know
within
the
historic
neighborhoods,
where
it's
not
meeting
the
definition
of
workforce
housing
where
it's
income,
qualified
and
you're
reviewing
somebody's
financials.
A
H
E
H
H
E
A
G
I
just
have
a
question
about
the
home
safety
and
repair
program
project.
Mike
she's
missy
stated
that
they
will.
They
would
only
do
fifteen
thousand
dollars
and
like
some
of
the
homes
that
she
went
into,
need
more
than
fifteen
thousand
dollars
worth
well.
The
bluffton,
I'm
not
sure
if
you're
familiar
with
the
bluffton
community,
if
it's
more
than
fifteen
thousand
dollars,
they
recommend
a
you
know
a
total
demolition
of
the
home
and
then
offer
assistance
to
replacing.
What's
like
a
mobile
home.
Is
that
available
in
helmet?
G
Instead
of
you
know,
doing
fifteen
thousand
work
and
then
these
thirty
thousand
dollars
in
work
or
twenty
five,
they
just
say
flat,
flatten
the
surface,
demolish
it
and
offer
assistance
with
getting
a
new
home,
because
you
know
I
know
a
lot
of
people
at
home
will
qualify,
but
it's
a
15
000
cap.
That's
my
question.
E
A
E
However,
if
a
home
needs
more
than
fifteen
thousand
dollars
worth
of
work,
it
was
envisioned
as
a
two-year
program
where
they
could
reapply
the
next
year
and
we
do
not
have
a
program
in
place
currently
where
we
would
demolish
the
home
and
find
other
opportunities
for
a
replacement
at
this
time.
So
no,
unfortunately,
the
answer
is
no.
A
A
Yes,
okay,
great
great,
great
and
again
councilman
brown.
Thank
you
for
being
here
and,
of
course,
our
communication
director,
that's
carolyn,
grant
and
the
rest
of
the
staff
for
the
work
that
you're
doing
and,
of
course,
missy
lueck
our
plan
b
and
the
main
attraction
for
the
day
with
all
the
answers,
and
if
not,
she
will
certainly
do
what
she
can
to
to
find
them
and
then
for
those
of
you
who
are
in
the
public.
