A
B
A
F
Good
morning,
yes,
sir,
it's
andrew
fawcett
yeah.
Thank
you
good
morning,
sir,
good
morning,
a
little
bit
of
business
news
with
the
sheriff's
office.
I
can
announce
it
now.
It's
an
official
angela
benz
has
been
transferred
to
the
pio
position
for
the
sheriff's
office
and
her
position
is
now
going
to
be
staffed
by
major
jeff
purdy
who's
from
the
northern
enforcement
branch,
and
he
will.
He
will
be
our
branch
commander,
south
of
the
broad
river
bridge,
his
purdey
p-u-r-d-y,
he's
on
leave
this
week.
So
he'll
be
here
on
monday,
all
right,
but.
F
F
F
So
the
ongoing
trends,
as
I
review
these,
I
made
some
notes.
Obviously
we
can
talk
about
traffic
here
in
a
moment,
but
we'll
talk
about
the
assaults
that
or
crimes
against
persons.
I
won't
make
the
assumption
I'll
make
the
that
it
is
actually
accurate.
The
aggravated
assaults,
as
you
see
them
in
front
of
us
right
here
for
the
fiscal
year
or
first
quarter
of
22,
shows
20
aggravated
assaults
to
me.
That
was
fairly
alarming,
but
in
reviewing
and
looking
at
how
we
report
these,
these
are
also
all
inclusive
of
domestic
violence.
F
Related
an
assault
is
an
assault
as
an
assault
just
because
it
happened
with
two
actors
that
are
have
some
intimate
relationship
or
in
accordance
with
state
guidelines.
It's
still
listed
as
an
aggravated
assault.
So
I
don't
want
the
council
to
think
that
people
are
getting
aggravated
assaults
occurring
just
by
you
know
john
q
public
walking
around
on
the
street.
These
are,
I
think,
the
majority
of
the
numbers
are
higher
in
the
domestic
area.
Do
you.
A
F
Couldn't
speak
to
that,
sir?
I
I
think
that
there's
I
don't
know
what
the
I'm
sure
we're
at
full
capacity
here
on
hilton
head,
but
the
numbers
actually
come
up,
obviously
with
the
tourist
season
coming
in,
and
it
sure
is
a
party
around
here
and
you
know,
after
after
the
heat
in
the
sun
and
a
long
weekend,
things
happen.
F
D
F
F
F
This
isn't
somebody
snapping
a
window
out
and
jimmy
in
the
the
ignition
on
a
bmw
or
mercedes.
This
is
somebody
that
leaves
their
fob
in
the
key
they're
in
the
cup
holder
and
all
you
have
to
do
is
touch
it
and
it
opens
up
and
now
suddenly
it
can
unlock
it
and
that's
a
crime
of
opportunity
for
the
most
part
that
I
believe
with
the
auto
thefts,
but
with
the
larcenies
they're
very
high
b
e
motor
vehicles,
the
larceny
is,
is
all
inclusive,
so
it's
not
specific,
but
shoplifting
is
a
trend.
F
It's
an
incredible
trend.
The
b
e
motor
vehicles
is
a
humongous
trend,
found
one
the
other
day
that
just
some
bound
property
that
came
in,
and
it's
not
specific.
We
know
where
the
targets
are
at,
but
it
those
targets,
no
matter
how
far
apart
they
are
mid
island
all
the
way
to
the
south
end.
They
will
run
that
that
whole
area,
the
bike
paths
and
the
easy
end
easy
out
and
hiding
is
really
easy
to
do
so.
F
Our
officers
make
a
courtesy
arrest,
not
necessarily
take
somebody
to
jail
for
simple
possession
of
marijuana
anymore,
but
there
are
larger
quantities
that
seem
to
be
surfacing,
and
I
would
say
recently,
probably
within
the
last
year,
possession
with
intent.
We've
had
some
trafficking.
Methamphetamine
is
a
problem.
It's
specific!
F
A
F
We've
had
some
real
good
interdiction
stops
and
some
open
investigations
where
large
er
quantities
and
then
our
career
criminal
have
been
taken
into
custody
and
those
charges
have
been
made.
Of
course,
when
you
see
it
in
the
paper
or
you
see
it
on
the
blotters,
the
specific
details
of
date,
time
groups
and
things
like
that
aren't
aren't
revealed
because
they're
still
open
and
active
investigations,
but
the
information
is
out
there,
but
the
heroin
opiates.
We
won't
just
call
it
heroin,
we'll
call
it
opiates.
F
F
Well,
without
myself
doing
the
the
interviews
with
these
folks
that
get
that
we
arrest
for
being
in
possession
of
these
narcotics
and
stuff
where
they
come
from
and
the
their
background
yeah.
These
people
have
to
feed
a
habit
and
an
unlocked
car
is
definitely
really
easy.
It's
a
soft
target,
it's
extremely
easy
for
these
folks
to
do
it
and
it's
not
inclusive
to
30
year
olds.
It's
it's
juveniles
and
I
don't
want
to
open
up.
Well,
that's
a
great
shot:
did
you
miss
it.
F
H
In
my
mind,
this
is
an
issue
I
I
wish
there
were
more
attention
given
to
it
for
the
time
being.
If
we
can
remind
everyone
what
you
tell
us
brilliantly
to
take
your
valuables
out
of
your
car
put
your
car
in
your
garage.
If
you
can,
even
if
you
do
then
in
both
instances,
lock
your
car
take
your
guns.
Take
your
key
fobs.
Take
everything
of
value
out
of
your
car.
If
there
is
a
correlation
between
the
drugs
and
the
theft,
that'll
help
resolve
some
of
it,
maybe
in
a
very
small
way.
H
But
if
it's
a
crime
against
opportunity
for
you
to
have
it,
there
may
be
some
small
impact
on
it.
Regardless
it's
good
good
advice,
and
we
thank
you
for
saying
that,
and
hopefully
everyone's
listening
when
we
say
take
your
valuables
out
of
your
car
and
lock
your
car
put
it
away
in
the
garage.
If
you
can.
F
F
F
I
hope
I'm
not
seeing
it
prematurely,
but
I
know
there's
three
phases
that
are
coming
in
the
town
of
hilton
head
up
and
down
the
corridor
and
the
business
278.
The
whole
phase
work
somewhere
down
the
road
is
way
down
the
road,
but
anyway
with
the
traffic
I
thought.
Maybe
somebody
would
have
some
questions
about
the
collisions
without
the
injuries
on
hilton
head
being
high
in
the
first
quarter.
F
F
It's
the
number
one
and,
thank
goodness,
predominantly
they're.
The
slow
earth
speeds
people
coming
to
a
stop.
Obviously,
and
and
of
course,
the
the
time
frame
that
these
occur
is
in
your
rush
hour,
more
rush
hour
traffic,
when
you
start
getting
into
the
left,
turn
right
turn
we
have
protected
intersections
except
outside
of
that
rush
hour
window.
The
left
turn
seems
to
be
the
in
front
of
on
moving
traffic
seems
to
be
very,
very
the
injury
rate.
F
That's
the
second
collision,
not
necessarily
side
swipes,
but
we
definitely
got
a
traffic
problem
with
people
running
into
each
other,
and
it's
it's
the
nature
of
the
beast.
When
you
have
so
much
traffic,
I
looked
at
these
numbers
they're,
not
too
awful
bad.
Hopefully
they
can
be
better.
It's.
My
information
that
I
have
is
a
little
more
extended.
I've
got
some
marks
in
here,
william,
william
hilton
parkway.
F
I'll
just
say
it
like.
This
is
the
relative
element
to
our
collisions.
The
the
traffic
engineers
done
a
great
job
with
the
timing.
In
my
opinion,
I've
been
here
for
a
long
time
on
hilton,
head
and
they've
done
a
great
job
with
them
and
protecting
those
intersections
and
making
things
safer.
Even
though
this
number
is
higher
at
158
in
the
first
quarter
of
22.
E
Lieutenant
thank
you
for
being
here.
Thank
you
for
your
service.
I
personally
believe
that
the
service
that
the
sheriff's
office
provides
us
with
reference
to
crime
is
outstanding,
and
I
think
that
you're
doing
an
excellent
job.
All
of
us
are
concerned
about
these
aggravated
assaults
being
up
the
more
violent
personal
crimes.
I'm
wondering
is
there
a
concentration
of
location
where
those
might
occur
on
the
island.
F
From
what
I've
been
reading
and
what
I've
been
reviewing
and
seeing
in
the
recent
months,
a
lot
of
it
is
the
the
short-term
rentals
you
know
with
the
the
more
active
party
areas,
then
things
go
south
at
sunday
afternoon
at
five
o'clock
in
the
at
night,
because
it's
been
a
long
hot
weekend.
So
things
like
that
happen.
We
get
people
from
the
outside.
F
E
E
E
I
see
that
the
collisions
are
being
met.
The
numbers
are
up,
but
I'm
concerned
about
traffic
control.
We
never
see
officers
out,
checking
speed.
We
never
see
officers
out
or
sheriff's
deputies
out
checking
people
that
are
running
red
lights.
It
seems
that
this
is
a
ongoing
sport
here
on
hilton
head
island
to
see
how
many
extra
cars
can
squeeze
through
red
lights.
I
for
one
when
I'm
the
lead
car
and
I
get
the
green
light,
I
always
hesitate
for
a
few
seconds
and
look
both
ways
to
see
who's
playing
that
game.
F
We
have
officers
that
are
constantly
writing
citations
and
issuing
warnings,
making
sure
making
those
traffic
stops
consistently.
The
numbers
are,
the
numbers,
are
there,
they
may
not
be
as
high
as
they
were
in
first
quarter,
21,
which
I
know
they're.
Not
the
written
warnings
are
so
the
opportunity
for
the
officers
to
make
a
stop
and
educate
and
they're
really
not
forced
to
whether
they
write
a
citation
or
a
warning
is
discretionary
at
their
point,
depending
on
how.
F
I
can
speak
for
southern
enforcement
branch
right
now,
which
is
part
of
the
enforcement
division,
and
we
are
six
officers
down
seven
officers
down,
so
we
just
a
whole
group
of
them.
Just
we
just
hired
and
have
just
reported
forum
reported
this
three
of
them
reported
this
weekend
and
next
friday.
The
the
other
three
will
report
south
of
the
broad
three
of
them
are
prior
experience
and
three
of
them
are
brand
new
rookies.
F
We
still
running
minimum
of
nine
on
a
shift
90
percent
of
time,
95
percent
of
the
time
we'd
like
to
have
15.
I
would
love
to
have
15
we're
to
12.
yeah,
but-
and
we
do
to
answer
your
question.
Mr
stafford
is
about
these
just
some
more
information.
We
we
run
traffic
blitzes,
frequently
right
now,
they're
tapped,
they're,
double
tasked.
We
don't
have
any
core
positions
for
a
traffic
team
or
a
just
call
takers
or
things
like
that.
F
We
try
to
do
more
with
less
and,
of
course
we
do
everybody
seems
to,
but
when
we
do
these
traffic
blitzes,
those
are
those
are
the
high
topic.
Offenses
that
we
look
at
one
is
tailgating,
two
is
reckless
driving
three
is
the
running
red
lights
and
the
other
one
is
obviously
speed
or
speed.
Related
accidents
aren't
nearly
as
high
as
some
people
would
think.
It's
usually
inattention
that
creates
these
traffic
accidents.
F
Hence
the
rear
end
collision,
so
texting
or
looking
over
to
see
if
blue
lights,
that
somebody
has
somebody
stopped,
and
they
you
understand
what
I'm
talking
about
if
you're
ruining
this
traffic,
so
we
do
do
that.
We
have
those
on
the
books
right
now.
As
far
as
some
new
traffic
blitz
is
coming,
it's
not
cons.
It's
not
specific,
just
to
hilton
head
the
running
of
the
red
lights
and
yes,
they
play
the
game.
They
do
it
on
rose
hill.
They
do
it
on
moss
creek.
F
They
do
it
at
malforce,
road
up
and
down
their
278,
causeway
or
all
the
way
from
the
property,
so
beaufort
county
property.
So
we
have
highway
patrol
running
on
hilton
head
as
frequently
as
they
can,
but
their
numbers
are
down,
we
steal
people
from
them
and
we
have
and
we
will
continue
and
bring
them
here
to
us.
E
Lieutenant
I'll
try
and
make
pay
closer
attention
to
what's
going
on
out
there,
and
I
look
forward
to
seeing
those
traffic
stops
out
there,
because
I
think
when,
when
people
see
traffic
stops,
they
say.
Oh
there
is
enforcement
here
and
I'll
slow
down,
or
I
won't
run
that
red
light,
and
I
hope
that
that
is
in
fact
what
happens
on
a
totally
different
subject.
I
mentioned
crime.
E
F
F
The
recently
we
have
a
one
particular
person,
there's
there's
several
that
are
a
career
in
this
opportunity
to
break
into
cars
and
things
like
this,
these
career
criminals,
one
was,
we
just
got
his
bond
revoked
and
I
believe
he
was
out
on
bond
for
16
or
17
b
e
motor
vehicles
he's
out
on
bond
this
guy's
a
career
criminal
he's
been
a
career
criminal
since
he
was
probably
14
years
old,
15
years
old.
Those
are
the
ones
that
we've
detected
last
week.
F
These
specifics,
especially
especially
this
one
he's-
I
don't
know
if
they've
served
the
war
on
him
yet
or
not,
for
the
dna
hit,
but
they've
revoked
his
bond
and
the
phone
calls
have
been
made.
The
solicitor
is
well
aware
of
this
and
yes,
we're
relaying
information
to
them
as
much
as
possible.
It's
a
conversation
that
comes
up
anytime.
These
people
rear
their
head
and
committing
these
crimes
and
the
probable
cause
established
for
their
arrest,
especially
if
they're
out
on
bond
for
the
exact
same
thing.
E
F
E
F
D
F
Do
directed
enforcement,
sir,
that
direct
enforcement
information
comes
out
from
the
master
sergeant
through
analysis.
That's
obtained
through
our
data
reporting,
and
it
comes
out
every
week.
Kyra
morris
is
here
she's
the
one
that
spits
that
data
out
to
us
and
provides
it
to
the
master
sergeant,
and
he
directs
that
to
the
the
supervisors
over
the
shift
in
between
calls
for
service.
Once
the
reports
are
caught
up.
F
If
you,
the
guys
once
have
something
else
that
needs
to
be
done
versus
extra
patrols,
because
we
have
extra
patrols
as
well,
their
hands
are
really
they're
very
busy,
but
that's
part
of
what
goes
out
during
the
day,
and
this
is
the
concentrated
area
to
locate.
If
you're
going
to
do
traffic
enforcement,
we
want
you
on
them
on
the
hilton
head
plantation
traffic.
Light
westbound
278
at
three
o'clock
in
the
afternoon
is
a
great
time
to
stop
people
from
running
that
red
light.
F
F
Year,
we
do
from
time
to
time
like
I've
hinted
on.
We've
got
I'm
right
now,
actually
working
on
a
directed
enforcement
aspect
where
we'll
pull
some
overtime.
Deputies
they'd
want
to
sign
up
just
to
run
traffic,
and
it's
it's
area
specific.
They
will
be
given
targeted
areas
in
order
to
work
when
kickoff
of
summer
hit.
We
ran
a
blitz
that
ran
all
the
way
down
to
the
coligny
traffic
circle,
all
the
way
from
gumtree
road
on
on
the
cross
island
and
it
was
extremely
effective.
I
thought
the
numbers
were
extremely
high.
F
It's
not
hard
to
find
70
and
a
55
is
pretty
easy.
It's
not
that
we
want
to
go
out
and
write
a
bunch
of
citations.
It's
the
the
actual
act
of
of
the
enforcement
aspect,
whether
a
citation
or
a
warrant
is
is
given.
Yes,
sir.
That's
those
directed
enforcement,
that's
what
we're
working
on
now
and
it
will
unveil
that,
probably
to
the
guys
and
they'll
be
on
it.
Within
the
next
week.
We
can
have.
I
I
I
I
So
the
first
parcel
that
I
want
to
talk
about
is
actually
two
contiguous
parcels.
You
see
them
there
highlighted
on
the
screen.
These
properties
are
known
as
barker
field,
and
you
can
see
that
they're
listed
as
parcel
a
and
parcel
b,
but
both
of
them
effectively
make
up
the
majority
of
the
property
parcel.
A
is
just
shy
of
three
acres
and
parcel
b
is
just
shy
of
eight
acres
they're
currently
used
for
recreational
activities
both
from
the
county
programming
and
from
the
town
programming
in
the
materials.
I
One
of
the
conditions
that
the
county
has
requested
is
that,
in
exchange
for
transferring
the
title
to
these
properties
to
the
town,
the
county
would
ask
that
they
retain
the
ability
to
use
these
properties
for
the
programming
that
they
currently
offer.
We
believe
that
that's
something
that
can
be
accomplished.
It
would
likely
take
coordination
between
island
rec
and
the
parks
and
rec
department,
but
assuming
that
those
two
entities
can
get
together
and
work
out
a
mutually
agreeable
schedule,
that
would
be
something
that
we
would
be
able
to
accomplish
with
this
particular
transfer.
I
One
thing
I
think
it's
important
to
note
and
I'm
going
to
try
to
see
if
I
can
highlight
it
here.
This
area
right
here
is
actually
not
owned
by
the
county.
It's
privately
owned.
The
county
has
a
lease
agreement
for
that
and
that
essentially
constitutes
the
parking
areas
for
the
park
itself.
So,
in
addition,
we've
referenced
in
this
document
here
the
assignment
of
a
lease
agreement
for
this
particular
parcel
that
would
go
along
with
the
actual
transfer.
I
I
This
is
already
owned
by
the
town
and
is
maintained
by
the
town,
so
we
don't
anticipate
a
significant
increase
in
maintenance
costs.
What
this
does
allow
us
to
do,
though,
is
if
we
look
at
investing
significant
amounts
of
capital
improvements
at
this
property,
then
we'll
have
the
ability
to
control
doing
that,
knowing
that
we
own
title
to
them.
G
Actually
be
real
feasible.
Actually,
it's
happening
now,
just
the
other
way.
We
we
work
with
the
parks
and
rec
department
to
schedule
programs
and
activities
out
there.
It
would
be
just
the
opposite,
they
would
work
with
us
to
do
that.
We
have
a
great
working
relationship
and
and
doesn't
matter
who
owns
it.
I
mean
I.
I
want
us
to
have
control,
meaning
the
town
of
illnet,
but
I
think
that
relationship
will
continue.
E
G
D
B
G
G
At
the
end
of
the
day
in
the
joint
use
programming
we
would
be,
and
then
we
would
work
with
the
facilities
and
coordinating
the
maintenance,
just
like
we
do
with
chaplain
park
like
we
do
with
the
parcel
that
josh
spoke
about
across
the
street,
so
we
worked
together
and
then
the
schedule
would
come
out
right
now.
What
we
do
on
a
monthly
basis
is
that
we
provide
facilities
with
the
scheduling
of
the
park
and
what's
coming
up,
and
they
have
that,
so
they
can
work
around
maintenance
and
same
thing.
G
I
The
next
person
again
it's
a
series
of
two
parcels,
but
they
are
connected
here.
We
refer
to
this
as
the
old
school
house
property.
My
understanding
is,
there
did
used
to
be
an
old
government
building
on
this
particular
property
that
at
one
point
in
time,
was
used
as
a
school.
At
one
point
in
time
it
was
used
as
a
municipal
court.
It's
had
a
couple
of
different
iterations,
but
it
now
is
a
parking
facility
up
here
along
278,
william
hilton
parkway,
and
then
back
here.
I
There
are
basketball
court
and
then
several
I
believe,
they've
been
converted
to
pickleball
courts
at
this
point
in
time
they
were
at
one
point
in
time:
tennis,
courts,
parcel
c
has
just
a
little
over
three
acres
and
parcel
d
is
just
a
little
over
four
acres.
So
just
shy
of
about
seven
and
a
half
acres
in
total
guys.
I
I
At
this
point,
no
we've
really
held
off
on
really
identifying
any
kind
of
uses
of
it.
The
parcel
that's
just
to
the
south
here
is
actually
part
of
a
much
larger
30
acre
parcel,
but
this
particular
portion
up
here
was
already
subdivided
off
when
the
town
acquired
it,
and
at
this
point
I
don't
believe
we've
identified
any
potential
uses
for
it.
Thank
you.
I
I
don't
know
that
they've
indicated
any
other
development
opportunities
for
it.
I
don't
know
that
there
are
any
restrictive
covenants
or
anything
that
have
been
placed
on
the
land.
It's
our
understanding
that
that's
what
they
want
to
use
the
property
for,
but
I
guess
in
theory
it
could
be
used
for
anything
that
that
parcel
might
be
zoned.
For,
although
I
I'm
not
aware
of
what
it's
currently
zoned.
I
I
And
then
this
is
the
last
and
again
it's
two
parcels,
but
they
are
connected
for
reference
purposes.
This
is
the
cross
islands
parkway
coming
over
on
to
the
southern
part
of
the
island
here
this
is
helmsman's
way,
so
this
is
how
you
would
get
to
the
hague
point
fairy
boat
landing,
and
this
is
how
you
get
over
to
the
marina,
which
is
on
the
other
side.
I
I
We
are
not
looking
at
transferring
any
portion
of
this
parcel,
but
in
order
to
get
access
for
ingress
and
egress
purposes
here,
the
county
is
requesting
that
this
parcel
be
surveyed
and
be
subdivided
off
to
ultimately
be
transferred
to
them.
Part
of
the
reason
is
this
parcel
right
here.
The
county
is
looking
at
acquiring
this
property,
either
directly
or
by
eminent
domain.
I
And
then,
additionally,
we've
requested
that
the
town
be
given
a
seat
at
the
table.
With
regards
to
the
development
of
this
particular
property
and
the
the
ferry
terminal
and
any
improvements
that
may
go
along
with
that,
essentially
wanting
to
secure
that
any
development
that
the
county
undertakes
is
done
within
the
thought
of
of
benefit
to
the
island
as
a
whole.
It's
kept
in
the
character
of
the
island
and
is
done
in
a
manner
in
which
is
going
to
be
keeping
with
the
branding
and
character
of
the
island.
I
E
I
There
there
is
no
requirements,
the
town
actually
does
have
an
agreement,
but
our
agreement
is
with
regards
to
the
operations
of
the
boat
landing
itself,
and
so
that's
not
really
pertinent
to
the
ownership
of
the
properties.
But
we
have
an
existing
agreement
where
the
town
owns
this
property,
but
the
county
actually
manages
it
as
part
of
the
public
boat
landings
and
then.
E
I
So
parcel
e
is
1.52
acres
and
then
again
here
when
we
prepared
these
documents,
we
were
initially
looking
at
this
being
an
easement
in
our
subsequent
conversations
with
the
county
because
they
are
looking
to
acquire
this
parcel
over
here.
They
would
like
the
town
to
consider
subdividing
off
this
portion
of
the
property
and
transferring
it
to
them,
so
they
would
wind
up
with
one
contiguous
parcel.
B
H
I
D
C
A
C
We've
worked
over
the
last
several
months,
probably
from
early
january,
to
get
this
pulled
together
so
that
it
can
start
to
be
utilized
and
rolled
out,
especially
with
this
year
being
an
election
year.
We
know
how
important
it's
going
to
be
and
we
never
know
how
many
are
going
to
turn
over
on
council
or
remain
or
what's
going
to
happen.
So
it's
important
that
we
have
these
processes
in
place.
C
First
of
all,
I
just
want
to
thank
you
all
of
you
for
everything
that
we
did
for
my
first
time,
going
through
the
appointments
and
reappointments
of
the
boards
and
commissions.
It
was
an
experience
and
it
actually
helped
me
come
up
with
things
that
I
won't
miss
next
year.
So
this
will
be
really
helpful.
C
That's
kind
of
where
I
want
to
start
off
with
is
with
the
boards
and
commissions
as
the
community
services
and
public
safety
committee.
You're
you've
been
tasked
as
being
a
personnel
committee
and
that's
to
review
applications
of
those
citizens
or
volunteers
interested
in
serving
on
one
of
our
town
council
appointed
boards
and
commissions.
C
C
It's
really
quite
simple.
Now
I
do
want
to
stress
that
this
is
an
ongoing
effort.
As
we
go
through
each
orientation,
we
will
regularly
regularly
review
and
make
updates
and
changes
as
as
are
necessary.
One
of
those
changes
or
one
of
those
opportunities
for
making
changes
is
the
follow-up
that
we
have
at
the
very
end.
It's
about
90
days
after
the
new
member
of
the
boarding
commission
commissioner
joins
and
has
been
through
orientation.
C
C
As
we've
seen
over
the
last
several
years,
energy
within
public
meetings
at
local
offices
across
the
country
has
gotten
a
little
bit
more
heightened,
and
we
feel
that
this
is
a
really
important
part
of
the
training
that
our
boards
and
commissions
go
through
annually.
Are
there
any
questions?
Recommendation
suggestions,
you'd
like
to
see
with
the
orientation
for
new
members
to
boards
and
commissions.
H
I
have
one
comment
that
was
made
to
me
that
I'm
just
going
to
pass
on
in
the
past.
It
seems
that,
though,
that
times
people
who
have
applied
for
whatever
it
happens
to
be,
but
there's
no
vacancy
they'll
receive
a
letter
and
it
could
be
a
misreading
of
the
letter.
I'm
not
really
sure
I've
seen
the
letter,
so
I'm
not
sure
how
it's
been
interpreted.
C
E
Krista
you've
done
a
beautiful
job
here
and
I
think
you're
going
to
enhance
our
database
considerably.
With
this,
I
recall
when
I
first
was
appointed
to
the
bza.
My
orientation
was.
I
sat
in
that
chair
over
there
in
the
first
meeting
and
had
to
vote
accordingly
and
so
you're
doing
a
lot.
That
really
needs
to
be
done
here.
E
One
thing
I'm
not
sure
is
in
here
clearly,
and
that
is
we
should
encourage
these
applicants
to
in
fact
attend
meetings
before
the
final
appointment
is
made
so
that
they
actually
do
understand
how
the
meetings
are
conducted
and
what
the
work
is,
and
maybe
that
could
also
be
supplemented
by
suggesting
to
them
to
go
to
the
website
where
those
meetings
are
recorded
so
that
they
could
review
them
in
case
they
couldn't
attend.
I
think
the
more
that
you
see
what
actually
happens
the
more
you
understand
what
your
responsibilities
would
be.
E
C
All
right,
I'm
going
to
move
straight
into
the
general
election
candidacy
and
the
orientation
for
new
members
to
town
council
in
the
office
of
mayor.
One
thing
I'd
just
like
to
remind
everyone
is
that,
a
week
from
today,
monday
august,
the
first
statement
of
candidacy
filing
will
open.
It
is
open
for
15
business
days.
It
runs
through
august.
The
15th
at
noon
and
those
that
are
submitting
them
will
need
to
just
bring
them
to
town
hall.
C
So
what
we've
done
this
time
is
we've
taken
all
of
those
documents.
I've
created
a
list
of
a
comprehensive
list
of
nothing
but
documents
that
would
be
included,
but
we've
also
broken
it
down
into
different
categories
of
meeting
with
the
town
manager
meeting
with
human
resources,
public
safety,
human
resources,
and
so
on.
C
This
way
you
can
put
a
name
to
a
face:
be
able
to
get
some
information
that
typically,
you
wouldn't
get
without
speaking
to
those
individuals
we're
also
just
like
the
boards
and
commissions
we're
going
to
continue
to
update
this
as
as
often
as
possible.
We
want
to
hear
back
from
council
from
mayor
and
and
see
what
we
need
to
be
doing
better.
A
couple
of
things
that
stood
out
to
us
was
the
equipment
making
sure
that
everybody
has
access
to
the
appropriate
equipment
and
that
it's
maintained
on
a
regular
basis.
C
Other
things
included
information
of
the
municipal
association
oftentimes
in
the
past.
What
has
happened
is
we've.
I've
been
provided
your
information
and
just
updated
the
database
and
off
you
guys,
get
mails
and
information
from
me,
so
we're
going
to
make
sure
that
everybody's
well
versed
on
this
information
when
they
receive
it.
C
E
C
Right
now,
what
we
are
using
is
currently
on
it's:
it's
like
violin
cabinet,
because
it's
just
a
large
exp
excel
spreadsheet.
We
are
working
with
granicus
who
is
going
to
help
us
manage
that
process,
so
it
will
automatically
update
we're.
In
fact,
I
have
a
meeting
with
rene
this
week
to
finish
the
last
portions
of
coding
so
that
we
can
get
that
information
put
up
there
and
it's
kept,
and
it's
maintained
pretty
much
on
its
own
with
some
tweaks
and
changes
here.
It
also
provides
for
an
automated
filing
system
for
your
applications.
E
D
C
A
C
B
B
I
I
Recently,
the
county
instituted
some
changes
to
their
code,
they've
been
reaching
out
to
the
municipalities
after
that
point
in
time
to
let
us
know
of
those
changes,
they
are
now
riding
the
circuit
going
around
to
all
of
the
municipalities
to
provide
information
about
what
those
changes
entail,
and
so
we've
invited
miss
brittany,
ward,
who's,
the
deputy
county
attorney
and
ms
tallulah
trice
who's
the
animal
services
director
to
come
and
basically
provide
you
with
some
information
about
the
recent
changes
and
answer
any
questions
that
you
may
have
and
with
that
I'll
turn
it
over.
Yes,
sir.
I
So
I
think,
maybe
a
little
bit
of
both
it
really
kind
of
depends
upon
your
level
of
comfortability
with
it
ultimately
because
of
our
relationship
with
the
county.
If
the
committee
does
feel
comfortable
with
these
changes,
we
would
ask
that
you
move
it
forward,
but
obviously
this
is
the
first
time
that
you've
been
exposed
to
this
information.
So
we
want
to
make
sure
that
you
do
feel
comfortable
with
it
before
it
is
moved
forward,
so
we'll
kind
of
play
it
by
ear
and
see
how
it
goes.
I
We
we've
reviewed
it.
We've
had
conversations
with
the
county
staff
just
to
make
sure
that
we're
understanding
it
correctly,
and
we
do
at
this
point,
we
don't
have
any
concerns.
We
think
there's
a
couple
of
interesting
points
that
they're
going
to
cover,
particularly
with
some
stuff
regarding
state
law
and
how
that
impacts
some
local
stuff
here.
But
otherwise
we
do
think
that
most
of
the
the
recommendations
that
they're
bringing
forward
are
good
recommendations
for
us
to
consider.
A
K
Otherwise,
we
get
to
as
josh
clearly
put
it
right
the
circuit
and
come
to
you
all
the
time
about
these
things.
So
I
will
point
out
the
larger
highlighted
areas
of
the
ordinance
change.
Specifically,
I
think
which
josh
was
alluding
to.
We
have
removed
voice
control
as
a
form
of
having
your
animal
or
your
pet
under
control.
That
is
because
the
south
kind
of
code
changed
their
rulings.
As
you
all
know,
we
cannot
supersede
what
the
code
states
so
when
they
changed
ours.
K
We
are
now
adjusting
what
our
ordinance
says,
and
so
that
was
the
the
started,
the
ball
rolling
as
far
as
changing
our
ordinances.
The
second
item
is
we.
We
did
not
remove
much
language.
We
reorganized
the
dangerous
dog
determination
previously
when
an
individual
was
in
a
situation
whereby
an
officer
was
called
out
for
a
dangerous
dog
determination,
meaning
there
was
a
dog
attack,
whether
dog,
on
dog
or
dog,
on
a
human.
K
There
was
five
different
aspects
that
were
immediately
applied
to
that
individual
meaning
they
had
to
immediately
receive
or
obtain
insurance,
as
well
as
some
others.
As
far
as
keeping
the
dog
maintained
in
a
gated
area,
I
have
since
moved
that
to
after
a
court
hearing
is
held
rather
than
when
an
officer
determines.
It
is
a
dangerous
dog,
so
that
is
simply
a
mechanics
movement
going
on
dangerous
dogs.
K
We've
also
over
the
course
of
my
four
years.
Prosecuting
these.
There
are
some
very
heartfelt
cases
that
come
forward,
especially
when
a
individual
owns
a
consider,
a
young
dog
or
a
puppy.
Two
three
years
old,
who
unfortunately
gets
themselves
in
a
situation
and
a
human
is
attacked
or
another
dog
is
attacked
when
we
take
those
previously,
when
we
took
those
to
court,
it
was
difficult
for
not
only
the
prosecutor
but
as
well
as
a
judge
to
deem
a
two
or
three-year-old
dog
who
clearly
got
put
in
a
bad
situation,
a
dangerous
dog.
K
K
It
must
be
contained
on
a
leash
at
all
times,
but
the
aspects
of
the
dog
having
to
be
in
a
four-sided
crate
at
all
times.
It
cannot
be
out
in
a
yard.
They
cannot
be
in
a
fenced
in
area
opposed
to
a
nuisance
where
we
still
allow
the
dog
to
be
in
a
fenced,
an
area,
and
they
don't
have
to
have
a
muzzle.
K
J
A
H
J
Yes,
the
state
law
says
that
you
know
they
have
to
be
it's
a
leash
law,
so
that's
something
y'all
would
need
to
take
up
with
the
state.
So
I
understand
the
beaches
are
an
issue,
but
that
is
you
know,
that's
a
problem
again
as
brittany
was
saying,
that's
a
legal
issue
that
you
can
talk
to
josh
about
about
having
designated
areas.
H
K
J
K
I
would
argue
that
that
is
a
fenced
in
area
and
there's
an
exception
there,
but
I
would
lean
towards
your
legal
counsel
to
say
what
your
options
are
in
order
to
continue
dogs
to
be
allowed
on
the
beaches.
I
cannot
hear,
although
my
capacity
as
a
deputy
attorney,
I
cannot
provide
you
legal
advice
so,
but
I
would
suggest
you
can
speak
with
them
about
that.
H
A
lot
of
the
wording
by
the
way
I
wrote
a
note
last
time,
y'all
brought
this
forward
because
there
was
a
lot
of
wording
that
I
was
not
comfortable
with,
because
I
did
not
believe
that
it
was
animal
friendly.
I
didn't
think
it
gave,
as
you
clearly
pointed
out,
opportunities
for
us
to
see
beyond
the
immediate
act.
This
does
improve
those.
So
thank
god
for
for
looking
at
some
of
that.
One
thing
that
still
bothers
me
though,
and
maybe
I've
read
this
incorrectly
I'll-
leave
it
to
y'all
to
to
straighten
me
out.
J
Yes,
I'm
on
the
board
of
the
state
of
animal
control,
south
carolina
and
they're
pushing
to
put
a
state
law
in
defect
towards
it's,
not
in
a
it's
not
breed.
I
know
it's
breed
specific,
but
it's
not
about
the
breed
or
you
know,
or
it's
not
about
the
deed.
It's
about
the
breed
right
now,
at
hilton,
head,
humane
and
at
beaufort
county
we
have
over
200
pit
bulls,
it's
not
our!
It's
not
our
fault.
Every
shelter
across
the
united
states
is
full
there's
a
problem.
J
Insurance
is
a
problem.
They
ban
them
military
bans
them
poas
hoas
on
hilton
head.
They
don't
permit
a
pit-like
dog
so
again
we're
stuck
with
it.
So
the
choice
is
we
can
euthanize
or
spay
and
neuter
once
we
and
and
I
go
back
to
dnr.
I
think
I
told
you
that
dnr
looks
at
every
species
and
said
one
cobia.
J
J
H
Absolutely
is
in
addition
to
that.
I
know
this
is
probably
not
the
best
place
for
this,
but
I'm
I'm
of
the
belief
that
those
puppies
or
a
dog
who
has
developed
bad
traits
is
really
the
direct
cause
of
the
person
who
is
their
primary
caretaker
right.
So
I'm
not
sure
what
we
have
in
place.
How
we
address
that,
but
I
certainly
as
far
as
education
goes
and
that's
a
realm
of
this
whole
issue
that
I'd
like
to
see
some
more
work
done,
I'm
more
than
willing
to
volunteer
any
time
and
effort
to
that.
Don't.
K
And
I,
and
on
that
note
I
will
say
that
tallulah
is
heavily
involved
when
it
comes
to
helping
out
citizens.
I
know
specifically,
I
handled
two
or
three
cases
where
she
assisted
the
individual
to
get
the
dogs
relocated
into
facilities
all
the
way
up
to
ohio,
and
so,
if
there
is
a
possibility
and
the
person
is
willing
to
work,
talia
is
definitely
the
person
who's
going
to
take
up
that
job
and
take
it
seriously
and
help
the
dog
more
than
anything.
H
And
and
then
I
guess,
on
the
nuisance
dog,
you
know,
I
think
I've
seen
I've
actually
worked
on
this
particular
aspect
on
changing
an
ordinance
up
north,
the
broad
range
of
barking
being
a
nuisance
to
a
to
a
neighbor
and
the
unsubstantiated
type
of
claims
that
are
hard
to
define.
As
what
that
means
is
at
a
certain
length
of
time.
H
Is
that
so
many
days
and
and
that
sort
of
thing
this
still
seems
to
be
broad
and
leaves
the
the
pet,
the
animal
and
the
homeowner
at
the
mercy
of
a
difficult
neighbor
who
would
just
like
soon
see
her
animal
gone
completely
just
for
whatever
their
agenda
may
be.
So
I'm
just
going
to
leave
that
out
there
that
that's
still
a
difficult
area
of
this
for
me
that
I
think
that
probably
we
could
do
a
bit
more
work
on.
E
K
Our
animal
control
officers,
they
actually
also
have
to
register
the
dangerous
dog
with
them
with
beaufort
county
animal
control,
and
so
the
dog
is
registered
and
our
officers
follow
up
with
those
to
make
sure
to
ensure
one
that
it's
implemented
and
two.
If
there's
ever
any
question
as
to
whether
or
not
it's
been
cancelled,
I
believe
they
have
it
yearly,
updated.
E
J
Yeah
we
can
do
that.
We
do
you
know,
there's
a
breeder's
license
so
every
year
we
review
that
to
make
sure
they're
up
to
date,
and
so
we
do
welfare
checks
on
dangerous
dogs
in
the
county.
So
we're
working
on
that
and
sheriff
tanner's,
actually
that
the
problem
with
you
know
against
our
ordinance
is
if
a
dog
is
truly
dangerous.
J
If
we
deem
it
dangerous,
it
can
be
moved
to
jasper
county
and
it's
no
longer
dangerous.
So
in
those
circumstances,
sheriff
tanner
has
offered
his
officers
to
will
system
and
he
will
deem
those
dangerous
animals
so
that
it's
in
the
state
of
south
carolina.
So
we
are
working.
You
know
very
diligently
on
that,
but.
I
J
I
Yeah
so
I'll
tell
you,
based
upon
my
preliminary
conversations,
it
was
my
understanding
that
domestic
animals
were
going
to
be
the
focus.
You
know
you
didn't
want
your
dog
to
be
tied
up
and
left.
While
you,
you
know,
scooted
out
of
town
livestock,
on
the
other
hand,
may
be
more
problematic.
I
understand
certainly
not
confining
them
in
certain
areas
making
sure
that
they
have
the
ability
to
move
around,
but
I
would
I
would
be
somewhat
concerned
about
that.
J
Yes,
and
so
we
have
an
app
and
we're
trying
to
go
around
and
find
those
areas,
because
it's
now
brittany
got
it
in
a
smaller
area,
because
it
is
the
flood
prone
areas
and
so
we're
identifying
where
the
livestock
is
and
and
then
we're
here
to
help
right
now.
You
know:
don't
wait
two
days
before
or
a
day
before,
because
that's
what
happens
so
we
can
aiken.
We
have.
I
have
mousse
with
aiken
and
other
counties
that
have
the
ability
to
bring
horse
trailers
down.
J
A
H
I
B
K
K
H
D
I
I
So
if
there's
a
clear
understanding
from
the
committee,
we
can
do
that
and
bring
everything
forward
when
it
comes
forward
to
town
council
at
the
same
time
or,
if
you'd
like
to
see
it
beforehand.
What
we'll
do
is
we'll
bring
this
back
to
you
at
your
regularly
scheduled
meeting
next
month,
get
concurrence
on
the
language,
and
then
we
can
move
it
forward
from
there.
